Apologies, everybody. There's been a slight problem with transmission. I'm not sure quite what you will have missed out on, but today we have a presenter, Tony Corder-Gast from Tonkin and Taylor, and he'll be presenting on a new era of industrial facility environmental management in order to view on the New Environment Protection Act. We love questions on these webinars, so if you could please use the Q&A button at the top of the screen. That would be excellent in terms of logging your questions. Then Tony and I will do our best to answer those questions. If we can't answer those questions or if we run out of time for all the questions, we will email you responses to those. So please please make sure they keep coming. Hello, Tony, are you there? Yeah, I'm just waiting for things to move on. Yep. Michelle, do you want to take over the drive of the presentation? This one seems to have locked. Oh, there we go. Now it's working. Okay, we're having a few technical issues today. I apologise to everybody. Look, the objectives of this webinar series is to generate awareness, to share the knowledge of people we have a relationship out there, and that in this particular instance, it's about sharing knowledge of change in regulation. We're also hoping that we're contributing to the training of the industry as a whole, and out of the questions, we're hoping to see what the industry needs are. So if you can please provide questions back on that, then we can help you more. Okay, so firstly, we will talk through the housekeeping sort of things, which I've now completed. I'm now going to do an introduction to Tony, and then the last part of this webinar will be the Q&A section. Why this topic? Well, it's an interesting moment in time. We haven't had a change in the EP Act for a long time in Victoria, and in a Hydrochera Hazard philosophy that by combining technology and application knowledge, we can improve operational efficiency and reduce environmental impacts. What's exciting is this new Act actually will be encouraging for that. So it puts an obligation on industry to be proactive with respect to preventing impacts on the environment. Specifically, it focuses on preventing harm by making risk management a positive legal obligation. So in my opinion in the past, we spent a lot of money on environmental compliance, and that did not necessarily benefit the environment. We spent a lot of time waiting to see if there was an impact. This shift is a positive shift towards us having to take initiative to make sure we're minimising our impacts. So we believe that compliance with this Act will be a good thing for industry and the environment. So getting in an expert in the case, Tony, is going to be good for you to understand what your obligations are with respect to this. So a little bit about Tony. He's an environmental order and a senior environmental consultant with Tonkin and Taylor. He's also chair of the EPA Victorian landfill auditor technical group. So he's uniquely positioned to be able to talk to you about what's happening with the EPA and this Act and well informed through that role in that order to group. Tony's been in the industry for a long time, more than 40 years, both as a national and international, both with national and international experience covering more than a dozen countries. He has provided specialist services to public and private sector clients, as well as EPA Victoria, EPA New South Wales, South Australian EPA, Northern Territory EPA, the Asian Development Bank, the World Bank, UNCHS, Habitat, UNDP and New Zealand Aid. He's authored more than 20 technical papers as well as many technical seminars and lectures. He has acted as the Australasian contributor to the ISWA International Landfill Working Group and was formerly national vice president of WMRR, the peak body for the waste industry in Australia. He's also a life member of Waste MINZ. So in summary, he's got extensive experience as an EPA auditor. He's worked a lot with VCAT PV and planning and permitting experience in Australia and New Zealand. He's got strong knowledge around landfill development, design, construction and operation, also around contaminated land management, as well as dealing with facilities with waste recovery and reprocessing. So without further ado, I'd like to hand over to Tony, who will commence his presentation. Thank you, Richard, for that very kind introduction. I'm sure and hope everyone can hear me. Welcome to you all in this brave new COVID world. That was a lovely picture, Richard. I'm sure I can assure you I haven't aged a day since that picture was taken. But look, I'll start off with something really useful to start with, and that is that I hope you've all had your vaccinations or in the process of getting them wherever you are in Australia. It was very interesting to read today in the New York Times that 98% of people now being infected in the USA, including with the Delta variant of COVID-19, have not been vaccinated.  The reality is that probably everybody, including all of us here today, will catch Delta or Gamma or Zeta or whatever other variant of this bug eventually gets to us. But you probably won't notice if you've been vaccinated. But if you haven't been vaccinated, beware. That's the message. That's my sort of opening totally off topic, Selva. So can we move on to the first slide, please? OK, some acknowledgments. Firstly, EPA Victoria staff, the materials they've been providing to auditors have been very useful, and I've cobbled a little bit of that material in my presentation today. EPA is in a very active process at the moment, and I'll come back to that as we go on. But I just wanted to acknowledge that anything you see that's come from EPA, thank you to the EPA for that. Gary Larson, you'll see a few comics as we go through in my humble opinion, the funniest man since Liz Dawson. I hope you all like Larson cartoons because you're going to see a few. So what I'm going to cover today and I'm conscious that we've got a wide variety of people listening in today from different backgrounds. So I'm not going to go into too much technical detail. If people have technical questions, by all means, ask them and we will do our best to answer them. I may have to go away and get answers if they're really tricky questions, but my whole purpose is to cover the new act in its core philosophy. In other words, what's really driving this change? What's the quantum shift that's going on here that people need to be aware of? Then I'll talk about the general environmental duty and its implications, particularly for industrial facility licence holders, people like the owners and operators of landfills and wastewater treatment plants, those sorts of things. Then I'll talk about the EPA guidance around the new regulations, what there is and what's still coming, and there is plenty still coming because very little exists. Then I'll talk a little bit about the environment reference standard, the RS. I'm going to touch on audit processes only pretty lightly, but I'll talk a little bit about 53x audits and PRSAs and also a little bit about section 53v audits, and then we'll have some time for questions. The first thing to note before we move on, though, is that it's early days. The new law is now enforced. As you can see there, it commenced on the 1st of July. That's in the absence of a lot of really hard concrete guidance, but the new law is enforced and that's the bottom line. The regulations were made earlier in the year, and the guidance is being released by the EPA as it's ready, and right at this point in time, there's not an awful lot that is ready. So I think what you've got to assume is that it's business as usual for now, act on the general environmental duty that applies to everybody, and note the progressive change that's going on in terms of regulatory and audit processes that we all follow. So the first thing really to talk about is the core philosophy behind the act. What's actually changed? The old 1970 Act focus was arguably a reactive type of legislation. It goes way back to Californian law, which goes back an awful long time, and the 1970 Act in Victoria was certainly a really, really positive change in terms of the Victorian environment. It was focused on the right hand side that you can see protecting human health and the environment from the EPA's perspective by punishing polluters that caused harm. So you could call it kind of the ambulance at the bottom of the cliff type approach, if you like. Probably a little bit unfair, but that's kind of the analogy. The EPA would issue licences, they'd apply that issue pans, they would warn people to stop doing things that go out and inspect sites. If you were really, really bad, then you got punished. All pretty reactive. And as times gone by and international risk assessment standards and things have emerged and the whole world's changed a bit to a more preventative focus, then what's happened is this transition to the new act brought about as a result of a parliamentary review of the whole system. And the aim here is to prevent harm and do that by making risk management a positive legal obligation. So the aim is to move from reactive to preventative. And as I'll come to in a moment, that's based on essentially what's happened in the area of health and safety. So under the new act, the EPA, the trend that's that you can see here on this slide was foreshadowed by John Merritt, the former EPA CEO, going back a couple of CEOs. I remember meeting with John early in the piece, he was ex-work safe. So he had a very different view of how the EPA should operate. Then leading into the parliamentary review, then we've gone to this new mantra, which is all about preventing, preventing, raising awareness and then taking what's called proportionate action and holding offenders to account. We'll come a bit more in a bit more detail to some of that in a minute, but just how all that happens is actually yet to emerge. However, I would say I've seen some positive trends and one of the things there is around encouraging higher performance and assisting people to get stuff done. The EPA has introduced a new online portal. The initial use of that primarily is to get PRSAs processed and I'll come back to that a bit later. But the EPA is definitely trying to make progress in terms of supporting people to comply with the act and get work done under the act in a way that was easier than it was before. A little simple example, yet on in the new EPA portal, you can now make payment for certain things online, whereas you could never do that before. Did we miss a slide, guys? I think can you go back up one? There's a slide missing. That's slightly annoying. Okay, the next one, maybe it's gotten out of water somehow. That's it. That's supposed to be the next one. Sorry. Okay, so the general environmental duty. What's this all about? Okay, so that what the act actually states is a person who is engaging in an activity that may give rise to risks of harm to human health or the environment from pollution or waste must minimize those risks so far as reasonably practical. A little cartoon there. The point here is it's not terribly difficult to grasp the concept, but it's certainly going to be a little bit more difficult to implement it. So that's the headline message. If we could please go back up one slide and we'll delve into a little bit of the framework that sits behind that. So firstly, the duties that are implied in the act and the various sections I've listed there and we can share all of this afterwards is that people and this means everybody have to act to respond to harm caused by a pollution incident. You have to notify the authority of notifiable incidents and those are listed in section 32. You have to manage contaminated land. You have to notify of contaminated land and we'll come back to that a little bit. Waste duties also apply in addition to the GED which include duties around depositing, receiving and transporting industrial waste, priority waste and reportable priority waste and that latter part around waste transport and waste control has been a real priority for the EPA because they did not want to see that kind of get out of control during the transition into the new act. There's a duty around material harm which if that's of relevance to you you can look that up but the the key thing here is this applies to everyone. It applies to landowners and license holders in particular and responsible persons within those types of organizations carrying out this type of work that can cause pollution. Landful operator as a classic example need to be prepared. You need to understand what it is you need to do and similarly if you're out on a site acting as a consultant or doing work for a license holder within the ambit of that general environmental duty the perspective you take on things that are going on on site may change over time. I know that in my company we've had quite a bit of discussion about how far that responsibility actually extends and I'll come back to that in a moment. So we'll just jump on to the next one please and then the next one. So what's the philosophy behind the act? Minimizing the risk of harm to human health in the environment that's a fundamental thing. So first thing is to eliminate risks so far as you're reasonably it's reasonably practical to do so and if it's not reasonably practical to eliminate the risks then you need to reduce the risks as far as you are reasonably practical. This is all paralleled from the OH&S laws and we all I think in our jobs understand what they mean. They mean you have to be very very careful. You have to have a preventative mantra. You have to have proactive risk assessment and management by your facility owners and operators. There's no excuses. There is direct accountability that will sheet back if you should have done something and you didn't. Now having said that there's still a lot of water to go under the bridge. There's no case law yet and that's all going to take a bit of time to play out. Next slide. Thank you. So what is reasonably practical actually mean? Well it depends on the likelihood of something happening. It depends on the degree of harm that might arise. It depends on your knowledge, your specific knowledge of the issue. It depends on what the options are that are available and it depends on the cost of eliminating and reducing the hazard or the risk. Ultimately the courts are going to decide on this. Right now none of nothing's come to court and we don't know how the courts are going to treat this but in practice for facility owners and operators the things that I would suggest you really take account of are being proactive in terms of risk management, being current. Make sure you've got management plans and standard operating procedures in place. Don't sit on your hands. Carry out regular review and risk assessment. Don't drop the ball on data and monitoring and say when someone comes knocking in six months and say well we didn't know what was going on so we just sort of stopped doing stuff. That won't cut it. Record keeping is really really important because you need to demonstrate that you've done all of this reasonably practicable. Accountability is a real issue now. It's really going to be very important in terms of site management plans and operating procedures to be clear who's accountable for what. Audits are not dead and I'll come back to that in a moment. They will be ongoing but they will change. And we have a new land development tool which is called the PRSA, the preliminary risk site assessment and I'll come to that in a bit more detail. I'll just add before we move on to the next slide. There's also some changes going on at Dwellp. Their new website is up and running and they'll be rolling out changes to things like planning practice note 30 and that type of document which might be of relevance to you. So the next slide please. So the EPA guidance, where's that at? Well the best thing to say is it's emerging somewhat slowly. The auditor population are probably much more across this than others and the reason for that is that the EPA's been going through an extensive process of consultation with auditors about what form these guidance documents should take and that all followed off course making the regulations and until the regulations were made the guidance couldn't be developed and hence engagement with the wider community facility owners and auditors couldn't develop. So that's taken a lot of time. It's been a catch-up and transition process. Some would argue that COVID-19's delayed all of this. I would argue that it's probably helped in the sense that the original date of 2020 last year was impossible, I think, to achieve. COVID-19's been a disruptor but it's also allowed everybody to draw breath. We had another year to sort of sort this stuff out but we are still in a situation where not much guidance has been issued. There's some out there in draft that auditors have been privy to but not a lot of others as yet. There are transitional guidelines published for auditors and there's also transitional guidance for license holders, publication 2019, which many of you will have seen. The environmental reference standard has been published and I'll come back to that in a moment. There's a PRSA draft document and guidelines for conducting PRSAs. Waste classification and transportation guidelines, if not published, must be very, very close to it as well as a number of other transitional guidance documents that are emerging. But for now, it's important to remember that your licenses and active pens will continue to be enforced until such time as they're not and have been superseded. So in terms of some of the specifics, go have a look at the EPA portal page. I kind of apologise when you do in the sense that the search function that's there ain't what it used to be. The EPA old website, which was pretty clunky, had a very good search function which meant you could you could find stuff pretty easily. I don't think that's the case now. The EPA's kind of parked dealing with their website probably to last understandably, but it's quite hard to find stuff. Publication 2019 I just mentioned. It's probably the most critical one, and I'm sure by now everybody who's got a license and runs an IF facility will have read that. It doesn't actually tell you terribly much other than that everything continues until things get changed. Waste tracker and PRSA processes have clearly been the EPA's priority. I'm aware that there's a whole lot more guidance emerging as we speak and I expect that you'll see an awful lot more of it before the end of August. So we'll move on to the next one. So under the new act what's the audit system look like? Well as many of you will know or all of you will know under the old act we had 53v audits which were risk based audits used for industrial facilities and things like landfill operational audits and those types of things were all risk audits. 53x audits which were contaminated land audits which were essentially a state-of-the-environment audit and resulted in a certificate or statement telling you what the condition of the land was and what restrictions needed to be placed on it. Well under the new act we're going to move to something that is more of a risk-based audit system. So in other words it's more like intended to be more like 53v's and 53x's and 53x's to a large extent are going to be overtaken by PRSA's plus possibly audits where they are required. So the new new audit system will be very much more risk-based. That might mean changes to future audit to roles and responsibilities but that hasn't really been discussed in any great depth yet but there will probably be a broader ambit of audits is able to do to do this audit work. Right now though it's business as usual for industrial facility audits such as for landfill cell construction nothing much is going to change for a while. In the 53x area the big new change is this preliminary risk side assessment which is a screening process that relates mainly to land development and that will result in either the issue of a certificate or the requirement for an audit. I'll touch on that a bit further in a minute but as I've said for now 53v audits will continue. So we'll go to the next one please. So some notable changes which some will find interesting and in language using language now that only your mother could love. We used to have this thing called a QTEP clean up to the extent practicable for groundwater and contaminated land that was groundwater QTEP was was EPA audits are determined in the in the past and sometimes resulted in the imposition of what was called a GRUZ which was a groundwater quality restricted use zone in other words groundwater that was morally sterilized for certain uses that's now gone completely gone. EPA will not determine QTEP post one July so it is dead and gone. We now have this charming term called a CUSFARP which is clean up so far as reasonably practical and you might say well what's the difference? Well it's not entirely clear just as yet but there's a different process and instead of determining QTEP the EPA will be making decisions with auditors around whether the cleanup is so far as reasonably practical and if there are restrictions on groundwater use that ensue from that then they need to be defined in the audit report rather than separately determined. So next slide please. Okay so site and environmental licenses we've touched on them these will continue for now as do standard and specific license license conditions for now but the general environmental duty I think it's really important that people recognize that that will likely trump the nuance of most license conditions that's yet to be tested but that's the way I see it and what that means is that the owners on operators can be expected to increase over time rather than decrease. License conditions changes will emerge but they haven't emerged yet but a couple of examples and some of you will be familiar with these landfill face size and landfill odor management are good examples. At the moment what happens for example is the EPA sets a landfill face size in a license condition. It sets the requirement to not cause odor in the license condition and then if there is an exceedance of those things or they go and measure your landfill face size with a drone and it's found to be too big then they issue you with a pan and try and do something about it. This is going to change I think very much if I use the odor odor parallels probably the easiest to much more if if you cause odor no matter what the reason whether it's the face size or whether it's from leaking landfill gas wells or for some other reason that's the issue you have caused the odor and if it meets the kind of nuisance requirements that we've typically addressed using FIDOL then then you're going to be in trouble because the operator of the facility is held responsible for having taken all practical steps to avoid that happening. So that's just going back to if you can think back to that earlier slide that's moving it from getting clobbered once it's happened to getting clobbered because you didn't not because you didn't comply with your license condition but because you didn't do all the things you should have done to avoid it happening in the first place that is the the nub of the change. Okay next one please just conscious of time I'll buzz three of about three more slides we'll get through them pretty quickly. So the environmental reference standard that's a new instrument from the first of July it consolidates a range of previous guidance and scratches some stuff that was out of date it's basically now the bible it aims to support monitoring and reporting on the condition of the environment by providing a scientific benchmark in other words this is the bottom line it will certainly inform decision making by entities such as VCAT planning Victoria EPA. So at first place they will go is to the ERS orders of course have to have regard not only to the ERS but also to any other relevant environmental reference standard but the ERS is now definitely the top of the environmental management system hierarchy in Victoria so don't forget that that's the starting point that's where the baselines are set out next slide please I'm just touching briefly on PRSA's effectively these are a screening level environmental assessment that will be carried out for a site predominantly by auditors I think there will be some scope for other people to do to do those over time but for now it's auditors the key objective of a PRSA is essentially to assess the likelihood of contamination that's contaminated land or groundwater is it there or is it not and the reason the way that's done sorry is by looking at the site history by looking at aerial photographic records by looking at all of those usual things that we would look at in a in conducting a preliminary site assessment to determine whether it's likely that contamination is present if it's likely then the PRSA will either issue a statement saying what restrictions ought to apply or it will determine that an audit is required and recommend the scope for that audit that whole process will be completed online now and the the hot the document we submitted through the EPA portal online and processed very very quickly so if you've got a piece of land and you're trying to develop it it's not a matter of waiting forever for an audit report to be done before you do anything PRSA will be is intended to be a fast risk based first screen all right next slide please okay this is the the last slide so what are some practical steps for industrial facility owners and operators what are the things you could and should do right now to kind of keep abreast of all of this well I think the first thing is don't over stress about it for now even though the act has changed you know all of the existing instruments are still in place you still need to carry on as if you are adopting a business as usual perspective what that means is meet your license conditions they still apply don't think that they will been tossed out the window stay informed access EPA resources there will be more and more of them emerging and that will enable you to engage with the EPA seek advice when you're not sure about stuff and plug for the consultants out there we have got a role to play helping people through this process and be proactive in relation to your systems processes monitoring and record keeping don't drop the ball don't let things slip make sure you're doing all the things that you should be doing and if anything more remember the general environmental duty and its associated accountability need to be very clear within your own organisations who's accountable for what because ignorance is no longer bliss and what I call the AFF method will no longer work and why by AFF I mean ask for forgiveness there's an old saying that it's sometimes easier to ask for forgiveness than it is for permission I don't think that will get you terribly far under the new act need to be aware of that watch for developments watch for prosecutions in case law that's going to take a little bit of time as will the transition but ultimately the courts are going to decide on what a number of these things mean in specific circumstances so it's all going to take a little bit of time to play out meanwhile do everything well keep good records and keep up to date and things will all be okay that's it thank you all right well thank you very much Tony certainly a fair bit for everyone to digest and I guess adapt to I went through the presentation before this and just listed a few of the key things that came to mind from myself I think the act should improve environmental outcome so I think it is a positive thing and definitely something that we should embrace rather than us monitoring and sort of then dealing with it when it's a problem so it should be a good thing remember to go and speak to the EPA I think everyone's cognizant that this is something new and that we're working through a transition I think Tony's done a good effort at communicating that the third dot point be proactive in relation to systems processes monitoring and record keeping is one that I was going to explore a little bit more with Tony at the moment we have a whole lot of systems that run businesses you know so a lot of people have quality accredited systems and they tend to be more about operational and now we're being asked to effectively look at those systems in the context of how they will prevent us impacting on the environment so I think there's an interesting moment where those systems are becoming more and more linked to environmental compliance so Tony I was interested in you had a slide where you you did talk about making sure people have their SOPs in place and that sort of thing but I was interested in your view on whether or not you see that in the end it's going to be critical for all operators to have a quality system and have those processes documented and compliance with those processes would almost be under two levels of regulation you know you're sort of a credited quality system side of things as well as compliance with EPA do you have a view on that Yeah I think that's right whether you have two systems I'm not so sure about but look the shift in line with ISO 14000 and all the international kind of risk based guidance is that a risk approach to prevent harm is where the direction that this is all going in and you know the parallel is obvious with health and safety where that's gone over the last 20 years you know 20 years ago or whatever if someone was badly hurt or injured on a site or it used to be a case of how did that happen oh gosh we better not do that again that sometimes has pretty tragic outcomes so the health and safety processes we've all seen it in our businesses and in day-to-day activities have moved upstream from that saying what could go wrong what are we doing about making sure it doesn't go wrong and if something does go wrong you know what does that say about our analysis so gone from a compliance kind of mindset to a preventative mindset and I think it's just the same for all environmental systems in other words what is causing the greatest risk how can we mitigate that risk and ideally before that how can we actually eliminate the risk so if you take the you know the case of a landfill I gave the example before you know it's probably no good not good enough now for example to be saying oh we monitor odour complaints from our facility and we had six last month and that was less than the month before silver okay that won't cut it I mean what you will need to be doing is to say we have figured out what our source potential sources of odour are we've figured out which are the ones that are likely to give rise to the greatest harm or off-site impact and this is what we've done about them we've eliminated this one by doing that we've mitigated this one by doing that and as a result our complaints are dropping does that shift make sense it makes sense to me if you're seen by EPA not to have achieved that what's their their choices of action towards the operators well ultimately you know there's prosecution if you simply haven't done enough and that's demonstrated to the courts and we've as I said we've got to see all that play out that will take years to play out in terms of case law but in the interim the EPA is obviously considering what other weapons it has in its arsenal to get stuff rectified and done I mean at the moment they have this mechanism called a pollution abatement notice now that may morph into something else but I expect we're still going to see similar types of processes where if the EPA is aware something's going wrong they will warn people they will try and help people to fix it I mean if you go back to that kind of circular diagram which we can share which I put up early on in the presentation their whole mantra is about supporting encouraging helping people improve systems and processes so you don't kind of do that by clobbering people at the first first sort of instance of something going wrong you get you make progress by encouraging people to improve but just how that the mix of all of that plays out over time we just have to wait and see okay well a good answer Tony I'm just looking we've got some questions coming into the Q&A box so I will endeavour to open that up all right so Paul McGraw good to hear from you Paul schedule three methane gas levels schedule three is covering the values as in the Beppham landfill but no mention of the carbon dioxide one and a half percent volume in the regulations is this an indication there might be changes in any guidance regarding landfill offsite gas monitoring with carbon dioxide short answer is yes I'm aware that the EPA has struggled with the CO2 levels that are in the Beppham for a long time they've been a constant source of debate and argument I've written a number of rewarded reports or I've suggested they just be ignored all together so yes I think that's a recognition that methane's what's the most important CO2 has a place in some situations in terms of as an indicator but yeah I think you can expect to see the next version of the Beppham worded differently okay Aravind wanted to know if this presentation can be shared I would have thought the answer was yes you're okay with that Tony yeah except you have to recognize I haven't got permission to use or Mr Larson's cartoons other than having to flog them off flog them off the internet maybe we'll take the cartoons off and then we'll we'll circulate it after that just wouldn't quite the same okay next questions from Dan Evans Hi Tony thanks for the talk useful summary and I agree the transition from a punitive compliance to proactive pragmatic management approach should be beneficial in the long runs long run once the bumps in the road are smoothed out wonder if you think the rapid assessment process you mentioned will be incorporated into the approvals pathway for new developments no I don't think so I think the PRSA process applies to contaminated land and groundwater and that's more of coming from a planning perspective in other words what can land be used for I think the processes of application for you know facility development you know what used to be a works approval type process that will change but I think it will it will still be a different process okay Aravind another question in that example of Oda combating measures whose responsibility is it to provide BMPs to operators the MPs they by that mean presumably meaning operating procedures or management procedures yeah okay that's management I think yeah yeah well it's it's the facility ultimately it's the facility holder and the owner the holder of the license so let's just say it's company XYZ that's operating a landfill somewhere in Metro Melbourne that company will hold the license from EPA and the officers of that company will be responsible for implementing that license or the requirements of that license as well as doing all the other stuff under the GED and making sure that there's a cascade of responsibility so that by the time it gets to the people in the field who are actually trying to do the work and and trying to implement measures then that's all sensible documented and everybody's clear what they've got to do if you want to draw a health and safety parallel to this it's the same thing you find that if there's a safety there's a fertility on a job site heaven forbid but if there is you see what happens in the courts a lot of different people get the book thrown at them including the the person who was actually responsible and the you know the the next person up the chain for when something went wrong they're obviously in the firing line but then you also find directors and officers of the company management are also all in the firing line if they cannot demonstrate that they've done what they needed to do to make sure procedures were in place slightly long wanted to answer but um yeah accountability is both specific and general is probably the best way to put it and it is very similar to the OH&S very similar to the OH&S law and I think if people just keep that in the back of their mind I think that that will serve them well okay we've got a few more questions we better keep moving Teal Watkins a question close to my heart are the APA currently exploring new technologies to help organizations prevent harm okay and new technologies what do we mean by that online forms or online whatever I'm just not quite sure what that would mean I think I think they're main in terms of innovation so I suppose the way I view this question is there's an onus on making your operations better and better to minimize the likelihood of say odor occurring and those systems may be automated like a real-time sensor and alarm or it might be automation of control of things that would otherwise cause odor to occur whether it's a pumping system or whatever you see that playing out okay nothing obvious at the moment the only example right now is that I can point to is the portal where the EPA is trying to make transactions easier in terms of their processes with the EPA but if you look at that kind of circular diagram I had you know they have on their encourage higher performance inform and educate so presumably somewhere within that those two boxes there is the ability to the sorts of things that the person's asking about I think that will all take time right now the only things that I'm seeing really are new guidance and technologies to to make everybody aware of that guidance beyond that I haven't seen anything as yet I suppose it will evolve with time yeah this is a people have to recognize this is a massive quantum shift the last act was enacted in 1970 based on earlier legislation from California I mean that's 50 years ago it's an awful long time ago in legal terms it's ancient so you know we can't expect that we're going to suddenly rush from doing one set of things over here called A doing a whole new set of things over here called B the thing that people have to recognize is that we're moving from A to B so shift your A thinking now to all the things that you still have to do under A but start thinking B okay Anna Cochran hello Anna long time thank you Tony for the plain language overview of the new laws new general license conditions are coming for license holders to develop a formal risk management and monitoring program and a decommissioning plan would be interested to hear your view on the role if any for auditors in reviewing and approving these plans yeah good question hello Anna I'm nice to talk to you I haven't seen you for a while yes you know as I said the the EPA is going to generalize some of these license conditions so that you get back to a sort of site specific approach so I'm sure there's a role for experts out there to advise facility owners on the risk assessment and risk management side we've kind of as Anna I know you know we've done a bit of this in the past particularly around stuff like landfill gas so yes I think the the whole process of getting more precise and more scientific about risk assessment and risk management that will elevate under those new license conditions and yes there will be roles for people to play hello I think we might have company sorry I think Richard dropped out yes sorry I'm I'm back now I do apologize I zoom dropped out completely then just checking if I've got the Q&A okay unfortunately with that dropping out I can see them okay do you want to take over asking then that would be awesome thanks okay and on a second okay Anna we answered somebody like my cartoons Aravind good okay Aravind has asked the question but a lot of audit causing sources and solutions are unknown yeah I accept that to a point in a lot of cases they are known and if I look internationally I can name plenty of examples of facilities in Victoria where people are not implementing best practice audit management the people can do a better job than is being done in some cases so I think now those chickens are going to come home to rest of it okay the next one can you please let me know where the cat seed soil can be reused on site and does the A16 permit apply well that's a tricky question and I don't think I'll answer that one today we can take that one away and have a look at it but yeah there's quite a lot of debate going on in that whole contaminated soil space at the moment so I could I could suggest an answer but I think I'd rather take that one on notice and come back on that one if that's all right I can't believe it no no no this is this is a minefield at the moment are there any more questions there one more a current question clear emphasis on state of knowledge and that this will be in an interactive or I'm not sure what that was I think it must I think it means interactive that that word it's going to see missing I think it's more of a comment than a question but state of knowledge yeah I mean I guess my message is keep yourselves informed there will be material coming out EPA will be will be advertising that not entirely sure how yet but they will be if they say what they're going they say if they do what they say they're going to do they will be pretty proactive in getting that information out to industry so just keep up as the message iterative sorry iterative process yes I'm not quite sure about that it'll become iterative in the sense that people along the way both the EPA and the operators of facilities will figure out where the fish looks are in the new license conditions or new standard license conditions or the process that EPA is following in terms of keeping people up to the mark like everything it's driven by regulation and determined by ultimately by court action and processes around that so we have to recognize that right now we've got no case law under the new act in it and it's just going to take some time so as a result of that yes there will be iterations to the process that's just going to take time I've got a question for you Tony you mentioned the PRSA I wanted to be clear who can actually undertake that at the moment auditors and auditors only is my understanding I have to stand corrected if that's wrong but my understanding is that PRSAs must be undertaken by auditors there is talk about allowing other environmental professionals to potentially undertake them in the future but I don't believe that's been agreed to as yet another question here is the ERS meant to replace SEPs that's a an interesting question because I think the answer is it's half and half the ERS is basically the reference standard the SEPs are still there but over time they will get rejigged as well I think but right now if for example you had to say right what is the maximum allowable concentration of chromium in an estuarine environment in Victoria you would go to the ERS to get that in terms of what the level of concentration that you've actually got has on the beneficial uses of that estuarine water then you still rely on the SEP for that Tony I've got another question um some would say that the changes to the OH&S Act have led to perhaps an overly zealous system and some processes that maybe over the top do you think we're likely to get into that situation through the the way the EPA acts been settled look I would hope not I understand the subtlety of the point you're making and I would hope not of course you have this great dichotomy between the level of risk you can take as a private individual driving a rally car or a racing car or doing skydiving or something else that some people would consider crazy dangerous compared to what you can do in a business and the level of documentation you need to keep as a business owner around all sorts of things so this you kind of got this you know an OH&S it's almost a double standard I think between the private sector and the public sector again time is going to tell because the if somebody gets prosecutors and taken off to to court about not having done enough or not having done the right things in terms of managing their risks to the environment of course the case has to end up getting proved and what that burden of proof is going to be has yet to be determined you know as I said in the presentation the act talks about things like reasonably practicable and you know and so what that the court will say is well what would a reasonable person do here what was the likelihood of this thing occurring what was the risk of harm that people understand that had they explored it had they taken all reasonable steps all those things have got to play out over time and hopefully as a result of that the courts will set some sensible requirements about what's reasonable and what isn't for the IPA to expect yeah thanks for that we've got another question here we'll take just a couple more it's 131 hi Tony thanks for this presentation I would be interested in your advice to landowners who have 53x audits with due dates many years therefore 358 and 7 from now I suspect that land owners will be keen to move to current regulatory mechanisms rather than keep working under superseded regulations soon rather than later yeah I guess if a land future land use or restrictions on that land use has already been determined by a 53x audit then that's it until the IPA might agree to change that so I think this is probably a case where that's it for now but I think that engage with the IPA purely early on in the piece and just see what the future looks like you know for that that specific site or 53x requirement you know once and all it's been determined it's been determined that's kind of so it's there now and you'll have to talk to the IPA about that one I think but I understand the point I've got a couple of sites I'm working on where you know we've recommended and in fact as recently as last week I've recommended another 53x V audit in five years time and I doubt that will change under the new regulations that audit will still need to still need to occur Aravind who's been very busy on questions today basically PRSA will replace PSI and DSI the former two can be undertaken by consultants so I guess that's a is that's a bit of a statement but do you agree with that Tony? Yeah look I'm not a 53x auditor but my understanding is the PRSA may what one of the two outcomes of a PSI PRSA is that an audit can be triggered in which case then you need to do the DSI so it overlaps certainly with the PSI whether it overlaps with the DSI or not depends I think whether an audit gets triggered hopefully that makes sense Look I think we're out of time I just wanted to say Tony that this was one of the highest ever attended webinars we had over 90 attendees today and I would really like to thank everyone for their attendance and their questions obviously the attendance is a reflection of your standing in the industry so we really appreciate your contribution today If you have any more questions feel free to email ourselves or Tony at Tonkin and Taylor but really good presentation I'd also like to just acknowledge a few people behind the scenes today we had one of the most traumatic starts to a webinar ever and I would like to acknowledge Carla, Michelle and Marcio in Hydra Terra for sorting out the back end side of things I'd like to also thank Tony for his patience but thank you very much everybody for attending today No problem, it was a pleasure seeing the questions through if there's any more I'll do my best to answer them thanks very much Thanks very much Tony Okay, see you all Bye


23. Valent pneumococcal polysaccharide vaccine, PPSV-23, has been used in Hangzhou, China since 2003 as a private sector, vaccine chosen vaccine. The coverage of PPSV-23 among elders ranged from 0.17% to 0.69%, and the overall coverage was higher in urban areas than in rural and suburban areas. Most of PPSV-23 were used in children, while the proportion of the old population, over 60 years slightly increased over year. PPSV-23 was safe with a low reported AEFI rate, which was a little higher for children than for the elderly, over 60 years. This article was authored by Yang Yu, Yu Yang Xu, Zhang Wang, and others.


Well folks, today we have an update on a rumor for Nintendo Switch 2 reported on a few months back coming from Nick from Xbox era. Remember he was the one who also told us that he knew someone who potentially saw Metroid Prime 4 and that it might be more open or at least the game world is pretty massive comparable to Halo Infinite when you first walk out which is an open world game. So that was really really exciting but he also told us an old rumor about that the Switch 2 that essentially the Switch 2 has something going on with it or he heard something's going on with it that's similar to something PlayStation and Sony has done in the past and since then we took a lot of guesses back at what it would be but we never really heard what was gonna happen and now well on the latest episode of the Xbox era podcast he finally unveiled what he had heard about Nintendo Switch 2 and what that PlayStation like feature is and let's just say I don't know that you're gonna be super excited by this one or maybe you will be excited by this one kind of depends on how you want to spin it and of course as with all rumors pretty easy to spin it in multiple directions that being said I wanted you guys so much for being here and if you're enjoying the video and enjoying our content go ahead and drop a like and subscribe to the channel I really appreciate that we're on a road to 150,000 subscribers and yes you can smash that bell icon and be notified of all future uploads so what are we talking about well you know what instead of me sitting here and and beating around the bush let me just have Nick himself tell you with this clip from the podcast I didn't want to go all the way with it but I said I had heard some stuff about the Switch 2 that I wasn't 100% on and the only clue I gave was that it was PlayStation like what Nintendo was planning was PlayStation like with the Switch 2 and then when I saw these recent me ugly so then when I I saw the rumors popping up again of a digital switch to I said to my guy I'm like come on can I just say this now they're like okay so what I have what I had heard about the Switch 2 that was PlayStation like and it links up with the digital and physical switch was that the plan again I don't know if Nintendo is still going ahead with this this is the thing even my guy's not sure if Nintendo is still going ahead with this but the plan was to have a backwards compatible version and a non backwards compatible version of the Switch 2 so like you know how PlayStation had BC versions of the PS3 and they had non BC versions of the PS3 I had heard that the plan was that Nintendo were looking at the same thing a BC and a non BC so I'm like oh one more expensive than the other yes yes so if you want the BC you pay up so my assumption is that the again assumption assumption I don't I don't know and neither does the person who gave me this info my assumption is that the BC more expensive version would also be the one that still supports physical cuts yeah quite interesting isn't it we're talking about the fact that there might be a Nintendo switch to that is backwards compatible and one that isn't and what I wish you would have addressed is if it just meant not physically backwards compatible because we already have some rumors and some weird things floating out there about a digital version of switch to and a cartridge version of switch to but if the digital version is still digitally backwards compatible then it's still backwards compatible just not with physical cartridges but he doesn't really address that and what he obviously gets into is just what he heard and he's not necessarily sure that Nintendo is going to go in this route now we look a bit deeper he does go into his own speculation of course and there's nothing wrong with going into speculation again he's the one who heard this information from his source and he makes this assumption that it would be like the physical digital version that the more expensive version would be the one with supporting physical carts and that one would have full backwards compatibility and the digital version doesn't have it at all but is cheaper now again this is just obviously a guess speculation a shot in the dark it doesn't necessarily mean that's what's going to happen and again he heard this earlier this year and just because Nintendo might have been planning that at the time changes can happen from plans to when you're actually going in the mass production of products although I will note this could explain some of the confusion from the dev kits if you guys remember back when we were hearing all this stuff about dev kits going out there in the middle of July one of the controversial things to come up with backwards compatibility and that some of the sources out there were saying things like yes it does have backwards compatibility but then other developers were telling the same people so let's just for an example go with video game chronicle they'd be telling video game chronicle actually it doesn't have backwards compatibility what is up with that and this sort of goes into support that maybe there's even multiple dev kits out there some with backwards compatibility some without backwards compatibility and because of that there's all this confusion so remember when I said you could spin this in a positive or a negative well the positive is that assuming there's any truth to these rumors the reports from the past from dev kits and obviously this rumor from nick from xbox era then what we can take from this is that yes there will be a switch to with backwards compatibility which is obviously really exciting that's what we want to hear it was an unknown thing it's been hotly debated in the nintendo community for a long time but hey there it is backwards compatible nintendo switch to that's a positive but you want to spin into a negative well potentially there's going to be an all digital system which pushes physical games more out the door and oh by the way that one won't have backwards compatibility and that is obviously not what you want to hear and nintendo is now up charging to have a physical cartridge slot and backwards compatibility which people might not be okay with and that's a way to spin this into the negative as i said you can go either way with this so what do i think about it well in the end we clearly don't have any control over what nintendo is going to do the fact that there's going to be a version with backwards compatibility yeah that's probably going to be the version i'm buying because hey i want my games to be forwards compatible not just physically but also digitally and if there's only one system that guarantees i have full bc then that's the system i'm going to get but if you're wondering how this relates to playstation you know he brings up you know the whole playstation 3 comparison how they have playstation 3's that have backwards compatibility and ones that didn't well all of them at launch had backwards compatibility it was later when they released revisions they got rid of the playstation 2 backwards compatibility this would be something that i think is being suggested nintendo would be doing at launch which i find to be a very interesting and potentially controversial decision to not just have full backwards compatibility across the board especially if you're going with an all digital you could still say it has digital backwards compatibility right you just can't obviously it's all digital that would be less controversial i mean it's already controversial to have an all digital one but then the other platforms have all digital systems so then maybe it's not as controversial as it might have been years ago i don't know this is a whole sort of mess out there and i really want to get your guys's thoughts clearly i would rather have backwards compatibility than not even though i don't necessarily always play my old games all the time there are games i'm still playing through and will probably still be playing on switch at the time switch 2 comes out it would be nice if i could just play them on the new system plus what if there's some perks like higher performance better frame rates obviously better resolution what if there's performance patches and upgrades and dlss upscaling so there could be a lot of reasons that i'd actually maybe want to revisit something like tiers of the kingdom but revisit on the new system even without a new version of that game coming out again this is all just a wildly rumor territory and unverifiable and even nick himself is like man this is like such old information at this point even his source isn't really sure if nintendo moved forward with this just that it was a plan at one point so we'll have to find out the rest of that podcast and that little speculation if you're wondering and you should absolutely go listen to the xbox era podcast it's really good and the rumor section often does once in a while dive into playstation and nintendo what i find really really interesting is that they do dive into this idea that nintendo switch 2 could be coming out sooner than people might expect like they don't think it's releasing next holiday like holiday 2024 it's going to be sooner than that they even speculate on an october reveal for a march release which to me is crazy but again just pure speculation not based on any sources anyways guys let me know you think about this down in the comments below i know backwards compatibility is that that that that topic with the system that just won't seem to go away until nintendo finally announces the damn thing and confirms it one way or another thank you guys for being here and i'll catch you in the next video


try to identify jobs that require a niche skill where you happen to have, especially in the very competitive job market, like everyone wants the best job possible. It is so hard to set yourself apart because you will be competing with not just other people who want to become a PM, but also other PMs who want a better job who already had PM experience in the US.  They have already founded a million dollar startup before and they want to become a PM. That's how competitive the job market is. So you have to be strategic on building your brand and like setting yourself apart.


Yeah, follow me on the ground. What you... What you... What you... Come on, man, y'all follow me on the ground, man. What you want? What you want? All these niggas shady. I wonder who really emma know.   Shit, they might be delusional, bro. I don't know what's up with em. Actions speak way louder than words, so I'ma let my success defend me. That's probably why niggas envy and want me to believe they friendly. So they can get close to see what's in me and then try to end me. Huh, you playin', we gon' spray it to it empty. Wait, nah. That's gon' leave somebody empty. So the best way to say, niggas is just stay away from niggas. I swear I pray for niggas. Pray for niggas.    I know niggas who hate on chi and we ain't never met each other. I guess that's how it is when y'all both came from the struggle. I guess that's how it is when y'all both felt that pain from the struggle. I guess that's how it is when you don't feel nobody love you.  I understand.  Thank God she ain't shady and do no whole damn 380 cause I'm so used to people switchin' like what I got with or with it crazy.  You gon' see me on that TV and yell out that used to be my baby.  The version of Picasso but alive I'm worth a lot more. Grab the torch from Basquiat took it away from the what I show helping hand a co-sign. She don't need a co-sign. Bitch I'm my own co-sign. And you know I won't sign until the price is right. Never seen the price is right. What's that? Yeah yeah yeah. And this is what I write. My signature at the end and then I sell this piece for more for more than you can ever make in a lifetime.


But they feel investors. Well, I just purchased a little bit of Facebook and in this video I want to give you the rationale around Facebook, the analysis, the stock analysis is a risk reward, how it fits my current investment strategy with the large portfolio that I have started where I'm turning my covered stock list into really owned stock list because Walter Schloss said that you need to own something to understand it and that's what I am doing. So here we go with the Facebook analysis and then the portfolio rationale. All right, quick Facebook analysis, really to the point that really matters when it comes to investing in Facebook. Facebook's earnings over the last 12 months were 18.4 billion. If we adjust for the five billion legal charges we are at 23.4 billion. On a market capitalization of 522 billion price earnings ratio is 22. That's in line with the market. SAP 500 price earnings ratio is also around 21. But there is a huge difference with Facebook. Revenue growth was 24%. That's huge, that destroys the market. Therefore, one can immediately say that Facebook is undervalued from a growth valuation perspective. So it is all about growth with Facebook. Facebook is a growth stock and if it continues to grow at 15, 20, 25% per year that will be your return. And I've listened to the last conference call for the fourth quarter of 2019 and Mark was kind enough to explain where does he see more growth coming for Facebook. So in short, the following notes comprehend Mark's view on Facebook's future. It's increasing the private social platform more intimate communities, more commerce and payments, WhatsApp payments, Facebook pay, Libra, et cetera and creating the next computing platform, the next computing platform, AR, VR, of course. And then the number of users I don't expect any growth there because I think it has reached its limit and the growth on this chart is probably from fake accounts and I having a group on Facebook and my page there there are so many fake accounts you can't even believe it. Nevertheless, there are, let's say, two billion monthly users that might be the best base to grow on all the other things that Facebook is doing. Followingly, let's do a Facebook earnings model. I analyzed Facebook and I also publicly discussed the purchases here on YouTube in 2018. And I said in 2018, based on the earnings if there is 20% growth for the first five years, 10% over the subsequent five years, 2029 conservative price earnings ratio of 10 that leads to terminal value of 259 on earnings of 25.9. A required return of 10%, the present value in 2018 was 183. I bought the stock at 174 and 130 something in that year, later sold at 200. So that was then. Now, 2020 April, Facebook grew at a faster rate than 20%, 24% has stronger earnings. And if it continues to grow at 20% for the first five years, 10% from 2025 to 2030, then earnings will be $34 per share in 2030. If we attach a conservative price earnings ratio of just 10 and we have a required return of 15% to calculate the current value, the present value in relation to the future value, the future stock price or the so-called discount rate, then the present value is 168 for a 15% return. The stock price would be 343 in 10 years. The 2020, 20% growth first years, conservative price earnings ratio of 10 required return of 15%, the present value is 168. I'm including the present value of the earnings over the year because they are accumulating cash and they have 55 billion on cash on their balance sheet. So we will see what they will do with the cash flows that are close to the earnings and they might pay them out. Therefore, I'm including them in the present sum valuation because that is how the business looks like. Then on, let's say a more market like valuation, 20% growth, 10% later, 20, 30 conservative price earnings ratio of 15, which is possible if the business continues to grow in the future and the required return of 10%, which is something many are happy with, the present value goes to 421 dollars and the future terminal value goes to 795 dollars. So you buy now something for 175 and the potential is there that it is an 800 stock in five to 10 years. Given the present value range is between 168, depending on your required return and 400 and the stock price is 175, I think Facebook is a stock to buy. That's my view and I want to learn, I want to learn more about the new value which is growth, the number of users, user monetization and then all about the new technologies that Facebook is creating and I want to follow that model, that value, that and also apply to all the other stocks that I research because it will give me a better, let's say, fundamental knowledge about the world we are going into the next 10, 15, 20 years. So I need to own it to know it, I bought 10 shares, I have this portfolio called the large Peter Lin style portfolio, try to build it up to 30, perhaps even 50 positions. This is one of three potential purchases for Facebook. If it goes down, I might add another purchase. So I'm thinking 100,000, 30 stocks between 1,500 and 4,500 per purchase. And this is how I will structure the portfolio from stalwarts, fast growers, cyclicals, asset place, turnarounds and then follow them. And when it is a really great time to buy it then and I know the company really well, then I might go with the other portfolios and source ideas from here. Nevertheless, I'm always trying to make money, find good investments and if Facebook goes to 810 years, it will be a good investment. However, when it comes to investing, you also have to see the risk and reward and how does that fit your portfolio? I had recently great question on my platforms when in every video you say, see how that fits your portfolio, could you elaborate on that? Well, it is about the risk and reward. And then when you invest in something, okay, look at the worst scenario and at the best scenario and then compare it to all the other options in your portfolio and then you see, okay, how does that fit my portfolio? On Facebook, worst case scenario, there are more scandals, there is much more regulation. The government say, Facebook, you know too much, you are too much into people's life with 2 billion people. So we either forbid you to do something, we tax you more or do something and let's say there is a degradation of the business, higher costs, like it has been the case over the last year with the Cambridge Analytica scandal. Then next, there are other platforms that are coming in and taking, let's say, market share. We could see TikTok, we are seeing what's doing, we can see Snapchat, but the longer Facebook exists, the bigger it is mode. However, you never know what can happen. That's something to keep in mind and then if things go worse, let's say earnings stop growing, perhaps even decline a little bit, the market is willing to pay 10 price earnings ratio, then you have a stock that is around half of what it is now. That is a risk and that's something you have to see how it fits your portfolio. On the reward, Facebook continues to grow 20, 25% per year, 15%, depending on the year. It is volatile, it will be volatile, but in 10 years you have a business that stock price is between 350 and 1,000. So that's a compounder, compounding effect, growth effect and then compare the risk and reward with all the other opportunities that you have to invest or in your portfolio. This is what I mean when I say see how it fits your portfolio. Click that like button. It is very important for the algorithm I have been told. So please click that like button.

My name is Selesia Marra, and I'm Italian. I'm a computer engineer, and I am a AWS cloud architect. In FAO, as a AWS cloud architect, I define all the standards, the procedures, the architecture that should be implemented in the FAO AWS cloud. I also help support people to adopt the cloud technologies and also to use them in the best way. So during the day, I'm contacting the various people who are asking me to support them, different types of support. Maybe there are emergencies where I need to intervene or asking me for debugging, helping them to debug, or sometimes, yes, they ask me some advices or some suggestions on how to improve their application or to enhance the application and suggest them how to integrate their application with some Amazon services or how to modify their infrastructure to achieve what they need.  I loved Japanese robot cartoons. My dream was to develop video games and build a very big robot that was managed by an artificial intelligence, let's say this way. So when then I had to decide the university faculty, I decided for a computer engineering faculty. No, never thought about that because I always be a person who has never put any limits. For me, it was not a problem. When I was attending the lessons, we had like 300 students and there were only 10 women. Now normally, the teams were working, I'm the only woman. But for me, it's not a problem. Initially, there were some people who were a little bit skeptical but when they saw that I was prepared that I knew how to work, that I was very good, then everything was passing. We were skeptical because we never saw a woman who was working with computers but then when you see that a person is professional, knows what she's doing, everything passes. Usually if I may say people who are not smart, who are not prepared have a bad attitude to a woman who is maybe embedding their scope of competencies but people who are clever, who are smart, who are professionals are not scared about that. To me, I would say to myself, well done, continue on this way. Don't worry, everything will go fine. You will encounter a lot of obstacle but you are strong enough to overcome all of them.  Always be curious, never stop learning, experiment always the new technologies even if are not in your scope of competencies. Also, don't be scared to put everything in discussion and if you are asked to abandon your comfortable zone to start a new role, don't take this as a negative way but take that as a great opportunity of professional and personal growth. And another thing, age is not a limit. Whatever is your age, never stop learning and also if you are asked to change your role, it is not a problem.


This is GoMustangSports.com. I'm Griffin Bassier with men's soccer head coach at Stevenson University, Graham Miller. Neal DeNeal is the result with a widener. 90 minutes wasn't enough. Are you pleased with the result tonight? Yeah, I think I'm pleased. In the end, obviously we want to win.  They've only got two losses. They've been, you know, naturally ranked pretty much all year up there in the regional rankings. So we knew how tough it was going to be. So for our guys, I can be pleased.  We had to have some hard talks as a team and the team's growing. We've been, you know, I think, you know, we've been dancing on our own for a while now. You know, we haven't had too many people rooting for us, I think, on that losing streak. But we know the people that are. And I think we got back to it last week against Albright and then obviously against a very tough team tonight. You saw that these guys can match anybody. And I was very impressed with the shutout against a really hard for, you know, opposition. So yeah, again, a tie with one of the league's best, one of the nation's best, really. What does it tell you?  What does it tell you about your squad moving forward? Well, like I said, I think a lot of people had written us off. But these guys fight. They come to practice every day. They put the miles in. And you saw that again tonight.  They played for 90 minutes and just worked the whole game. And they were making a lot of subs and we didn't.  We almost got one ourselves.  But that's OK. We can build off this and, you know, look forward to Eastern on Saturday. What do you guys have to do on Saturday to get the win over Eastern? So same defensive, you know, the defensive performance was great. And again, put the hard work in and press them and then obviously go up to Eastern and, you know, it's their senior days. So they'll be fired up and obviously then try and put the ball in the back of the net. Sounds good. Thanks a lot, coach. Good luck. Thanks, buddy.

So might as well save some money while you're on the site. By the way, this is not gonna be a full makeup routine just because I feel like I repeat it every single time I like do a get ready with me. So I'm mainly gonna be showing you just like the new products and reviewing them a little bit. So if you wanna see how I got this look, then keep on watching. I feel like I always have my hair setting and curls when I do get ready with me's but at least it looks like a little wedding updo. So first I wanna show you guys my first ever contour palette, highlight and contour palette, my bad. It has six different shades. Obviously I'm probably gonna be using this one the most. I think I was the most excited about this and the liquid lipsticks but this because I've never really tried out a contour and highlight palette before and it always makes everyone's makeup so much more dramatic and I like my makeup dramatic. So I'm gonna be using the darkest brown that I showed you guys and let's just wing it guys. I don't really know what I'm doing with this so. I've tried this a lot this past weekend when I was at an Indian wedding and I actually really liked it but personally I just feel like powder bronzer is a lot faster, it's just a fact and I've recently cut the time that I do my makeup down so adding this cream contour step adds more time that I like cut down so that's the only thing I don't like about it but the product itself is really good. Obviously it's really pigmented and I do think I'm gonna put powder bronzer over it just to like give it a little bit of a more dramatic look but I will say this definitely does add a lot because a lot of the time powder bronzer just wipes away after 15 minutes that you put it on but I feel like cream bronzer stays a lot longer if not the whole night.  Like it's actually annoying because I feel like Mac should have the best brushes in the world just because of the name Mac, you know what I mean? I also haven't filmed a video in forever so I'm looking a lot in a viewfinder. Sorry about that. The key to doing cream contour is to do it right after your foundation or concealer. Do it at the stage that everything's still moist and wet and you didn't put on any powder. All this hair is on my face, gotta brush it off really quick. So then I'm just taking my Naked Skin Concealer by Overn Decay and I'm just gonna put it under my eyes.  I haven't worn makeup like since last weekend so don't even know what I'm doing anymore, just kidding. But it's definitely weird when you haven't worn makeup in a while and then you do makeup and you're like, whoa, I actually don't look like a potato when I try. I feel like it makes me feel so put together when I do my makeup on school days but I only have one face-to-face class this semester at least so I'm just like, what's the point? But next semester I have class every single day. I'm so excited.  I'm actually really pissed. But I was expecting it. I definitely did take advantage of my gen eds because there's a lot of gen eds online. But now since I'm in my major radio television, I have to take a lot of them like face-to-face which is obviously, obviously suddenly that was gonna happen so I'm not really surprised about it but I will say it's gonna be weird going on campus every single day except Friday and Saturday and Sunday. Especially when you're used to, almost never going. It's college, gotta get used to it. This is like the first time I wet my beauty blender in a while, I just thought I would be like patting the cream contour out but I guess I didn't do that. I think I might add a little more actually because I want it to be like really dramatic guys. Like I want my contour to be poppin'. So today, I get to see Thomas rep for free. I'm literally gonna cry. I'm going to cry. I want him to sing at my wedding. When I do get married, whenever that will be, I want him to sing Die Happy Man and what's the other song? The first song I ever liked is like something about a song like, hey girl, I wanna write you a song or something. I haven't heard it in so long that I don't even know the tune anymore which is weird. Basically, one girl in my sorority knew another girl and another sorority that works for someone at country flow is where I'm going.  Like, yes please. At first I was like, that sounds kind of sketchy. Like how do I just get a free ticket, you know? But my friend Katelyn talked me into it so I'm going. It seems pretty legit so let's hope we get in because it's one hour and 40 minutes away from here. So that'll be a fun road trip today. We're going at six. It is currently almost five so I have like an hour to get Susie because I kind of want that for dinner to take in the car with me. I've never gone to like a festival. Like this is actually considered a festival. It's like all day today, all day tomorrow. I think we're going tomorrow, I'm not really sure. But I'm kind of scared because I don't know. I just get really nervous when it's not like an area that I like know of if that makes sense. I don't know. My eyebrows look really bad right now so don't make fun of them. I'm going through a really bad phase. Now I'm gonna test out the signature eyeshadow palette, the contour eyes one. So it has all my brown shades that I love to use. But first I'm gonna be using this single shadow and Truffle and putting this all over my crease. This is super pigmented. I also really like their packaging because almost everything comes with a mirror like the contour palette and this one too, which is very nice because I feel like all eyeshadow palettes should have one. Some don't, but they should. I don't know what's going on with my eyebrows. I swear it's gonna look better when everything's together so don't make fun of me until the very end. And if they still look bad then you can make fun of me. I swear I forget how to do my eyebrows after one week of not wearing makeup. I don't know what's with me. Okay, so we're gonna go on to the palette and I'm probably just gonna go from light to dark. I'm gonna use this shadow first and then probably go to this one. Okay, I'm gonna start with this on my lid and then I'm gonna blend it out into the crease. I love, love, love, love really, really dark lids now with a brown, not a black, but maybe I'll get to that black phase. This is the first time I'm actually using this eyeshadow palette and I kind of think I like the single shadows a little bit better, but this is very convenient. I mean, look at it. It's like all browns that I love in one palette. It's skinny, but it's a good amount of eyeshadow. Okay, now I'm gonna go in with, let's see, I'm gonna take this dark brown and put it on my lid as well. I just like to build it up from light to dark. You guys know me. Definitely gonna go put some more truffle in the crease though so I can have like that blended look. I feel like I've showed you guys this thing many times before. This is the Color Switch Duo by Baramona and basically you do this with your brush and it takes off all the color. So since I wanna go back to light, I'm gonna do this really quick to get all that dark. My brush and it comes right off. I feel like I usually go for a warm dark brown and this is like more on the cool side. So I'm gonna try to warm it up with this truffle. I'm basically done with my eyes. I think I need to clean it up a little bit here. And maybe I can put a little truffle on the under eyes. I'm gonna go and put eyeliner and mascara on and I'll be back. I did put on a bronzer. It's just an eyeshadow from Makeup Forever and now we're gonna move into blush. This is the Rendesvis blush from Ofra and I honestly thought it was a little bit darker on the site but I don't really care. I think this is such a pretty color, like a peachy, peachy color. Now onto the best part, the highlighters. So this is Beverly Hills and this is Rodeo Drive and I'm gonna do a quick swatch on my fingers for you guys to see. I just swirl all of it in and then obviously for Rodeo Drive, just go like that. All right, I'm gonna show you these swatches really quick. This is a more rose gold highlighter and this is Beverly Hills and the gold one is Rodeo Drive. They're insanely pigmented. Sometimes I do layer both but today I'm just gonna go for the rose gold looks. I'm gonna take Beverly Hills and swirl my brush in it. Now time for lips. I have this long lasting liquid lipstick in the shade Americano and it reminds me of Ashton by Anastasia Beverly Hills and I really like that color but I really think this formula is a hundred times better. Like I kid you not, it feels like you're wearing nothing on your lips which is so great because liquid lipsticks, like a lot of them are really drying these days and I literally can't deal with that because I like always need moisture on my lips. So usually I put glosses over Kylie's liquid lipsticks but I feel like with this one it doesn't really need anything. So the shade is a little bit too red for me so I'm gonna go in with Dubai from Ophrex and kind of blend them two together. I'm gonna put this in the middle. I really like mixing those two because it kind of gives it a more muted tone because I don't really like to wear too bold of lipsticks if it's just like an everyday wear. So that's it of this makeup tutorial. I hope you guys really enjoyed this video. I also have a coupon code for OFRA. It's 30% off anything on the website.

Ass kicker? Yes, whenever I go wrong. That's her name, Prabha Ji. Isn't she lovely? Beautiful. And this? That is my daughter, Janvi. Nice nose ring. My husband doesn't like it.

But the day she left, her heart broke. What happened? Deepthi, caregiver? Yes. Come on, let's go. If you don't mind, I can ask you some questions. Prabha Ji, do you always look like this? I don't always look like this. I mean, when did you last see him? In the morning. Okay. How do you feel? I feel fine. I feel a bit of gas. Otherwise, absolutely fine. I meant, how do you feel about Prabha Ji? My heart still skips a beat every time she walks into the room. Like, one constant risk to get down to work. The name is... Deepthi. The husband's name? No problem. This is a very big decision. You can change your entire life. And I know that when I talk about it, I feel the same. In fact, in India, there are many women who don't go to Delhi after work. They have come here. That's a very good thing. But you have to be frank with me. Tell me, what are the problems between the two of you? There are no problems. Something is good. Yes, everything is good. But...  Has he ever been violent? Has he ever hit you? No, no.

Okay. Tirov is practical. He's a bit more practical. I want to be a psychologist. He thinks that... Therapy and so on. I believe in true love. I think that... I believe in true love... I believe in true love. I believe in his beliefs. You'll leave him? Like a nose ring? There's no perfect partner. There are some faults in everything. There are a lot of faults in me too. That's what happens. When a relationship has problems, it's a pressure. All the problems are shown on its own. No, really. In this relationship, the biggest problem is me. What is your problem? Listen, don't worry. This conversation is protected... by a Tony-client family. It won't go beyond this status. Imagine... I don't have anyone who knows about me. I'm scared. I'm scared. I'll tell you later. When... I met Prabha for the first time. My practice was going on. She's now a well-to-do family. She's now a well-to-do family. And I... started looking for rent. My office was... a 5 by 5... cabin. There was a second-hand maze... where the bed was broken. I was very scared. I saw that office. I stopped her a lot... but one day, my office... arrived. What did you do? I made a painting on that maze. I love painting. A painting of a tree. And the crack of the window... became a branch of that tree. The problem... wasn't that I had a dream. The problem was that... I tried to hide that dream from Prabha. Why did you write this? Why did you write this? Prabha... Her wife is dead. I want to know why you wrote this. Prabha! Everything is fine. Switch off the main switch of the gas. Otherwise, he'll keep making tea all day. Okay, sir. Thank you. Wait a minute, sir. Sir, the slip hit you. Sir, please. Get up from that side. Kiri, are you okay? Come inside, sir. Come inside. Why did you write this? I want to know why you wrote this. It's too cold. Change the subject. Tell me, why did you write this? Why did you write this? There's no point, Kiri. There's no point. You have written Prabha. Her wife is dead. What a suspicious thing this is to say. Tell me, I need to know. Nonsense! Prabha! Prabha! She won't come, Kiri. She can't come, Kiri. Prabha, she's gone. No. No. No. She had made a bed for herself in the morning. I'll show you. On Instagram, yeah. On Instagram, yeah. You okay, Kiri? Man, it was amazing. I've heard a lot about my husband and wife.  Obviously, the most important thing in life is that woman. All the success in my life, all the happiness, is because of that one rule. She calls it rule number one. Rule number one. Rule number one. Some type of shine pink. Sound design, that was back over there. Papa? Papa, how did you get this wound? It slipped. It's a small wound. He's fine. You okay? Yeah, he's okay. How was your wedding? It was very good. I'm so confused. It wasn't that difficult. We talk a lot. The day was great and the talks were great. But we were far away. Rule number one. What did you talk about? But it wasn't complete. So please tell me. Whatever you are, it's enough. Deepthi is going home. Sorry, Deepthi. I'll call you tomorrow. It was never confirmed by anybody. For some reason, I thought... The kids! They never said that. Well done cloaking that. You said that since madam left, sir's health has deteriorated. Yeah. So? So madam is inside? Prabha madam? Madam was talking about madam. When she went to the hotel, she was shocked. I swear. What is this? It's inside. Well done. It's totally easy to believe that he would forget his wife is dead. Of course. It's easy to trick the audience in that scenario. Nose rank. Put it in. Really nice. Who wrote it? Sorry, I paused it before. I could get to that. Where's the writing credit? Produced. Cast. Written by. There you go. Vikram Gupta and Chintan Sartha. Nice writing. Yeah, I didn't see it coming. No. Because like I said, it's pretty easy to trick the audience into believing anything with a person who has dementia or Alzheimer's or whatever. Whatever he has. Because he would absolutely forget. Obviously that's also been done in film many, many, many, many times. Because it's one of the most heart breaking things. I mean obviously cancer is its own thing, right? Because it takes so many people, but I might rather have cancer. I sent a text to my buddy Rich yesterday because since my dad you guys probably wouldn't know this. I've mentioned it very sparingly, but my dad has battled bipolar disorder and he has an extremely about his extreme condition of it since 1976. But his body's reached a place where he can't take lithium anymore and lithium's been the only thing that keeps him sane. So he's been off of it for four weeks and it's around that time where he starts to get off. And I had a phone conversation with him yesterday and he was a little bit off. Which is a precursor to full-fledged, just mentally gone. And I sent a text to my buddy Rich who has known my dad and me since we're 11 and 12 years old and I said all diseases are awful. But ones that affect the mind and the brain are particularly evil. Yeah, because it obviously, if somebody has cancer obviously, that still affects everyone. Exactly. And then it's awful. But the fact that obviously this it's almost even more painful one because the person probably doesn't know that they have it. And it also severely emotionally affects it's depending on how severe it is obviously and who that person is how far long it is, who they're forgetting and all that kind of stuff. It can be emotionally just awful for everyone. Yes because all of the mind diseases they do this and they do this and they do this. I genuinely and you know this back in September and Johnny and I were in New York and I was at my dad's apartment back then and I was we didn't know if he was going to live to Thanksgiving. Yeah. So I went through for the first time in my life the full-fledged grieving process of what life would look like without my dad and he rebounded and then he dropped again and then he rebounded and then he dropped again and that is one of the things that happens even though you're prepared for it and there are these glimmers of hope where you think a miracle is happening and they're back and you're talking about Yankee games and you're doing your normal stuff and then the next time you talk to them gone. Yeah. And the other thing that's the really the beautiful payoff to this which is the title of the film is and his little speech about what his wife did in painting the table and not to hide your flaws and be yourself. That's the beautiful thing really. You don't have to have a fully diagnosed disease to be considered to be a flawed in fact, even within the construct of those things beautiful things can come out of it and can be used for higher purposes that you wouldn't even know necessarily. Yeah. Really, really lovely short film. Shocker of the year Nassered and Raseka did a great job. Can act. Fully believe. I mean if they ever did a father remake he's the he's the person I would absolutely want a hundred percent over I mean I'm sure there's a but we've seen a bunch of great actors who are elderly. No, if if I was making the Indian version of that, if I could have a choice, it'd be nice here. And then you could also do like that that actor who was in music for the old dad he'd be great as well. He would. You could you could make an argument for Big B. And there's several people I would put in Olivia Coleman's position. Raseka being one of them. Raseka would be one of them. They'd be actors similar to her though like Raseka, Delotama, Radhika Shwostaka. Shwostaka, all those kind of actors but they did a phenomenal job. The one aspect that it's part of Indian cinema, I thought sometimes the score was overdone at points. Yeah, I didn't think I liked it. I just whenever you're like it's already an emotional thing and then you heighten the music to bring out the emotion. I know film enough to know why you're doing that and so I feel like you're trying to trick me and I'm like if you had literally no score it would have been just emotional for me. If you have good actors it's... Yeah, it didn't bother me at all. It for me was a and it does. There's the line between enhancing the moment and manipulating the moment. I didn't feel like anything was manipulative. It still is great short film. I'm curious and I think I've asked it before why aren't these submitted for the Oscars? For short film? Truly. Does India submit anything for scripted short films? Short films? Because there is a category. Yeah and it's filled with non-English films. I think somebody did tell me one time Royal Stag alcohol company they're not allowed to do ads so this is one of the way they get around it is by making short films. Making short films. Even though they don't really advertise a lot it's just Royal Stag presents and that's basically all you hear about it. Of the alcohol so it's not really like an ad so that's interesting but we've seen some great short films from India and most of them are. You could literally take some of them and I could easily see them being nominated. So I just don't know what the process of that is for international but most short films I feel like a lot of the times are non-English. For the most part. And do a favor if you hadn't seen this short film before go ahead and go over to Royal Stag's website and give it a quick little look at them a view and subscribe because a lot of times and most stupid babies do this anyway but for those of you who don't it's wonderful to watch it here and experience it together but it also ought to drive a view and subscriptions over to them so that they can benefit not just from the word of mouth but they can actually benefit from the actual views and the subscribing and if I'm not mistaken of the 20 or so there was one that didn't knock our socks off. Yeah. I think it was one of Jackie Schrofft. And he wasn't the issue. And he wasn't the issue. It was just the overall film. You know we love Zaddy Schrofft baby but he could also be one that I think would do well on the father as well. Yeah and obviously Big B. Now in his old age obviously. And another one who could pull it off for sure and I would probably blow people away would be Roger Nikon. Yeah. Yeah I could see that for sure. Yeah. Anyways let us know what you thought about the short film and what should be the next short film that we watch. Let us know down below.
