What's up everybody Jason here for Jasper's case breaks calm. We just sold out our promo guys. We unlocked it So basically we had a Packers versus Fort Nanner's Bounty promo Which was tonight only and potentially giving away up to $2,000 in break credit. So you're probably thinking man I haven't seen this before it's been a while guys. I don't think we've done these in a little bit But for the people that have been breaking this for a little bit, you know, it's pretty pretty fun one and Always entertaining to watch the game and break. So basically guys We had to do some breaks in the football section We had to sell at least seven breaks to run the promotion And if we hit that quota and broke at least seven football breaks no matter which ones they were Then we were gonna randomize the names and give away some break credit Now the question is how much break credit we were supposed to give away Well, the way it worked was we kind of had to hit some bounties and we didn't actually the 49ers and Packers Had to hit some bounties for us so If there was a touchdown in the first quarter We'll give away $200 in break credit. If there was a Christian McCaffrey touchdown $200 in break credit. Obviously, etc. etc. Like I said, every break was out before now ended up being that This bounties did not hit we did not get a touchdown in the first quarter and we did not get three or more total sacks We only had one sock really So those two did not hit but everything else did hit from the Christian McCaffrey Brock Purdy 3rd for 200 yards or more and Brown either having three or more catches and Jones having two or more catches Jayden Reed had exactly 35 yards receiving That one hit Jordan Love had two touchdowns or more. We had actually two miss field goals So actually one was blocked and then one was missed so that one hit and then there was 45 total points scored in this game. So we only needed 44 So potentially we're gonna give away 2000 but in reality, we're only giving away 1600 Still a lot of money and basically guys these are the breaks that qualified for it So we actually ended up doing I think 10 breaks or nine breaks. I think one two three four five six seven eight Nine yeah nine breaks actually so two over what we needed So I'm going to gather the names here guys It's actually not as many names as I thought it would be because a lot of the breaks were only 15 spot breaks. So in reality Not too bad and then we're just gonna randomize only the names guys. That's it only the names and Roll it three and a six nine times Top eight customers get break credit codes of two hundred dollars each and I'll send those out to you tonight guys Thank you. Good luck three and a six nine times one two three four five six seven eight nine nine times nine nine All right, here we go the scroll just just scrolling Just scrolling in the 60s Whoa, why'd it go back down, bro?  Sorry, excuse me.  Oh Raymond London in the 40s. That was last last last mojo 30s 20s teens Edward Fortport just missing out now, of course Edward and Jeremy would have gotten break credit if you would have hit 10 bounties But unfortunately we did not but top eight Brad s congrats Chris Joe Andreessen Alexander Eric K Kenneth barefoot Eric K again and at number one Stephen Kendrick last spot mojo. Oh my god. Was that the break that you sold out? Eric the The the Penini contenders football break. Wow That's how you do it if that was it All right, so I'm gonna copy the list, but unfortunately only the top eight. All right. Well Stephen Kendrick Thank Christian McCaffrey for scoring a touchdown because you got $200 in break credit Eric Thank Brock party for throwing 200 yards or more Kenneth. Thank brown. Are you grabbing three catches? Eric think Aaron Jones for having two or more catches Alexander think Jaden Reed for having 35 Receiving yards or more Joe. Thank Jordan Lowe for throwing two touchdowns Chris Thankfully, they missed some field goals and you got $200 and then Brett Total score was more than 44 points. Thank the Packers and 49ers for scoring more than 44 points So appreciate it guys I'll send you guys your break credit codes like I said look out for maybe another one another day These are always fun and I think it gets the people wanting to you know get these breaks done And I think it just it's always a fun one guys. So appreciate it guys. I'll send these out and have a great night


Welcome back and good morning wherever you are or good afternoon again. So we discussed in the last class the review little bit of phase transition then I talked about two things I left out and not in great detail but students should know about them is the solutel transition which is a very common chemical industrial phenomena and percolation which is again very very common in electrical engineering and these things percolation is very common in natural as I said in sand bed and many many other places flow of water is dictated by percolation and then we talked about that the Landau literally revised Landau theory the Landau's great free energy landscape picture of phenomena and then we talked about that first order phase transition is where you have a metastability as given by hysteresis or given by the fact that you know we all call that we all say that water freezes into high is at 0 degree centigrade or go below 0 degree centigrade but that does not quite happen if you have a very pure water you can make in a droplets that no impurities there then that remains in the liquid water till minus 40 degree centigrade mercury and gallium you can super cool we call them super cool to about minus you know below they are melting where the freezing point 50 degree centigrade 60 degree centigrade even in upstairs in clouds the water the temperature has to go down before the really clouds to the droplets form and this is what is already in Landau's theory in a kind of Landau's loop and we know in a metastability in magnetic systems you you switch the field in the other direction but nothing happens the spin still point magnetic moment still point in up in the old direction is that to turn up your field quite a bit before they turn around so metastability means that system is trapped in a minimum and that can be explained very easily from Landau's picture that there the in a first order of extension the old minima remains so even though new minima deeper minima deeper minimum has appeared the system does not know how to go around it does not know even that probably knows that there is a new way of doing it but it does not know but what happened system always undergoing fluctuations and this fluctuations is a way of exploring the thing and as we discussed in the thermodynamics that these fluctuations must be positive for a system to be stable that is why specific heat stability specific we go greater than 0 is a condition of thermodynamic stability ish thermal compressibility positive is a condition of mechanical stability essentially these fluctuations are we consider in a stable system in a in a the fluctuations around a harmonic surface so free energy can be that's why the how does it come because if the probability of the fluctuation of energy that is Gaussian e to the power minus delta e square and what do you have in the denominator of delta e square you have the specific heat so so if I talk of a fluctuation delta e then that goes as a normalization constant e to the power minus delta e square by CV so if I have a harmonic thing then this CV is fluctuating then what is the probability of fluctuation delta x this is x then it is again e to the power minus omega square delta x square so omega square now you compare the two the frequency is CV 1 over CV so omega square is 1 over CV so this a system a stable system is in a bound in a harmonic surface so right now what we are having then we are having this kind of situation this is harmonic but this barrier is large the big barrier is a macroscopic so barrier is microscopic very important so how does the system go then from that question in second order of estimation it does not arise second order of estimation does not have metastability it has just large scale giant fluctuations have here with the divergence of compressibility and speak it and you suddenly get these systems split into two okay ordered and this order like in magnetic transition you have order state and this order state and a system choose between one of the two system choose between sorry three sense up spin and down spin and that says beautiful phenomena called spontaneous symmetry making but we are not going to go into that right now we are going to do with first order of estimation so this is the first order of estimation we will do second order more detail later but something extremely important to a physical chemist and to nanomaterial synthesis of more importance of late now into material scientist and to physical chemist or in the department I am in first order of structural chemistry or the next my department chemical engineering is very very important that one understands in inclusion phenomena and this is something I can tell you a small story once I was visiting Japan and I get talk and I was the first time and I was not comfortable with Japanese food and I was very hungry after the my talk lecture so there is an Indian student who was my ex-student I was not my own PhD student but a student I remember he was very eager send me many mails he wants to see me so I remember it because after the talk I was very tired and he took me to his I do a long talk in Japan sometimes you give two hours lecture I went to at 6 o'clock I went to his office and I told him first before you talk you give me some food so he gave me couple of banana but then he was so told me sir I wanted to see you because you saved my life I said how well you taught that course or nucleation and spin order composition and here when I came they were doing something on a surface which was actually nucleation and they didn't know anything about it and so but I knew from your class so I could explain the experimental phenomena to them the formation of islands and then they and they were exc and percolation and all these things and they are extremely extremely happy and the first paper that I could read in right within a short time in Japan it took a long time sometimes to write a paper especially by foreign students but this guy was so so then I realized that this guy was doing a surface scientist so all the critical phenomena critical exponent realization group that you teach them is not useful to bulk majority of material scientist and the physical chemist or organic chemist but nucleation is very important because nucleation is more important than critical phenomena to this group of people because they face that all the time a physical chemist is an experimental physical chemist so so that I always the preempt I before critical phenomena any other things I teach nucleation and I want students to learn nucleation is a beautiful phenomena so now how does nucleation they know what happens actually in this in the system when you have this phase my old phase in that old phase the way it goes over to new phase is that a small embryo forms so these embryo is a nuclei that nucleus of the new phase and that tries to that tries to grow so in these landscape this is somewhere here so these guy tries to grow by fluctuation is a spontaneous fluctuation and it go then it comes down again then again goes finally it goes here and it goes over and then there is an explosive growth so the process of the phenomena of an embryo growing into a metastable phase is nucleation so nucleation is the process let me write down by a an embryo of the old phase undergoes growth by activation and this is spontaneous it has activation energy and we will now calculate the activation energy so this is the nucleation it so when first order phase transition happens not by any kind of big large scale fluctuation but the small fluctuation that goes so the system is destroyed from within from inside the system is destroyed and new phase comes up you know that is how ice melts that is how water goes into ice or water droplets form all the first order phase transitions or if you have a magnetic transition but in the presence of magnetic field then you this again this some localized things we get ordered from the disorder system and if you have spilled on the upside then up spins will get plastered together and they form a nucleus or an embryo and then that membrane melt and go but finally it will grow in they are growing in many places but one of them will grow and reach to the critical this critical size and then it goes over to the other phase so that is the phenomena we will describe now in a little bit more detail okay so we will now do the following thing that we will do nucleation I described already thermodynamics from nucleation and the Becker-Doring theory then we will do some things very very nice things which is the Lovic treatment of the collection of Becker-Doring by the way the Becker-Doring is a extremely important thing this is the thing which is described in many cases physical chemist might know Lenderman thing then they know enzyme kinetics Michael S. Menten and all these things they are all very similar things they are connected to each other so someday if I can get time I will talk about that okay so then plastic prediction limitations and all these things we will do so let us start with then the nucleation okay is a phenomenon observing in large kinetics and phase transitions and it is from within so there it must proceed by an equation because microscope changes the barrier it cannot this I already told this barrier is macroscopic it cannot go otherwise so it must from inside so nucleated for new phase has to be nucleated within the old phase that I said and this there however this process itself has a barrier and that is a barrier and that is a beautiful physics and that is called nucleation barrier and that is the one we will now consider okay and then an example as I already said that water should freeze at 0 degree centigrade does not it is can be super cool to great great much below much below minus 40 degree centigrade water remains water water does not pure water does not freeze at 0 degree centigrade that because the embryo needs sufficient driving force to grow it does not grow okay and this is the existence of metastability is due to the this is a beautiful beautiful sentence actually this is all taken from our book that the existence of metastability due to the presence of barrier forced by nucleation now while pure water pure water does not freeze below 40 degree minus 40 degree centigrade helium and I am sorry gallium and mercury does not with a minor they go 50 60 degree centigrade below they are freezing however you know in refrigerator ice forms you know minus 5 degree centigrade minus 3 degree centigrade 10 degree centigrade the reason is that they are surfaces and there are a lot of impurity so that is called heterogeneous nucleation heterogeneous nucleation does not face that barrier and there is the way you do the heterogeneous nucleation of course you have to do homogenous nucleation first then you include the surfaces and show that how heterogeneous nucleation takes place okay so this is a completely smooth way and you and one interesting thing is that you are having a very super you might have done in physical chemistry experiments that you have super cooled it and you have the container below 0 degree centigrade now you scratch it with a and we have many of us have seen that or in liquid you scratch it with a rod glass rod and you can see crystallites appear so the heterogeneous nucleation and this is because this is a one of the telling and great example of the of the role of surface tension and surface tension is something we want to study in this lecture later but right now we will define surface tension as the energy required to create a surface so if I have to create a surface of ice in water that is a different surface that requires extraneous energy that is energy surface tension quantitatively is defined that the energy required to create an unit area that you are creating your in your high school even that surface tension but that same high surface tension plays an extremely important role how do now how do we go to do the theory and we are now going to go out that development of the theory okay so the basic idea then that we have an embryo growing in in this in this old phase embryo of the new phase is trying to grow and we have to find out what is the energy okay when I grow something then it gains energy because these the free energy landscape is like that so this is the new phase the embryo phase so when it is here it gets free energy it gets considerable of free energy say the free energy per unit volume I define as delta gv so it gains that energy however it creates the surface and it has to pay for the surface so total delta g is then some of bulk energy which is gained this is minus negative but then surface energy which is it has to pay so the these things and some of you might already bearing to see what is that so this is the metal stable gas and in this case this is metal stability in temperature percent density and this is the critical point okay now so as we again and again saying if gas going to liquid then these the coexistence but it in order the equation to take place it must go down and I am now going to tell you why is that okay so basic equation is this is the equation okay the basic equation is that if I want to create a new clears of radius r you know old phase then I give my volume is 4 pi by 3 by r cube this is 4 pi by 3 by r cube and then delta gv delta gv these are great and delta gv is the difference this is the delta gv so this is again so this negative in front again this much again however I have to pay energy so how much is the surface we know surface 4 pi r square and gamma is the energy per unit area so 4 pi so this is the total amount of so in order to create a fluctuation of size r this is the energy that I have to pay this is the total energy cost so energy gain and energy loss now what do I do okay I go here and I ask for a new phase okay so let me now see delta gr now one is energy gain and then how does do the loop let us look at these these r cube and these are square so if I plot this delta gr against r then this thing is negative this r cube this thing is positive okay now surface tension is actually pretty large so what happens this part wins in the beginning so that is why you go up the hill and come down but if by some fluctuation it becomes large then it starts getting the advantage that this is larger because these are cube okay so then what happens as a combination of these two a maximum appears and this maximum is the this maximum is very important thing in the language these are star critical radius this is the critical barrier so in the folklore of phase transition this is a very important diagram that is telling you how nutrition takes place this is very important for nanomaterial synthesis in every case this one diagram called Becker doing diagram that when I write the energy of creation that is like embryo of size r then this has this structure now how do so again combination of two factors one is negative rapidly becoming negative other is positive and then you get that then how do I do that then next thing of course and this is the critical radius r star I have to find the expression for r star now and critical barrier I have to find an expression of critical barrier okay let me do that how do I do that now we have done it many many times in this class already we do d dr delta dr equal to 0 okay and what do I do now I get I do this so I writing little big I should write little small so when I do that I get minus 3 3 cancels this 3 and I get 4 I get minus 4 pi r square delta gv and I get that plus 8 pi r gamma equal to 0 right now one of them are equal to 0 is the solution part of the reason because this is the minimum so r equal to 0 is the solution that is not the solution we want so we then divide by r so this goes out and this become r okay now these are now become my r star I know the other second solution this r star and that is now given by r star by 2 gamma by delta gv so these are star expression so this is the radius expression of the critical radius now what I want to do I want to put these values of r star into this so now I want to do find this barrier so now I put it made it r star okay and I put r star 2 gamma by delta gv cube here I will use the same position excuse me but that will work out beautifully so 2 gamma cube and now I will put okay so now you get 8 and 32 by 3 here you get 16 by 3 and delta gv these delta gv cancels one of the delta gv here and you get gamma cube by delta gv square back in the so now I get the following expression so these are the two very important expressions this theory of nucleation is called becker during let me tell you this also the theory was used in nuclear fission and many many across the condensed matter physics and chemistry the amazing important and beautiful thing so basically what do I we have done we have done a considered a combination of surface term and the bulk term and I just wrote down a very simple expression surface tension is known so is delta gv is known because I can calculate the free energy of the old and the new phase I can come from the old phase and I can come from the new phase and I can calculate the the free energy things my standard free energy calculations I can do that by integrating one specific heat that is the way we set up the problems that I give you enthalpy I give you specific heat and you calculate the free energy you know that can be done so free energy of these phases are fairly well known and because there are many many fittings also available to these things so we know delta gv we know the surface tension and there are certain approximations and we will talk about that but since this is that my course for aim to for beginners essentially we will probably minimize the criticism of a theory of the scale and we will discuss of course now but the I want you to appreciate the generality of the concepts that are involved it is a very common generality and at the end of the day we come out with certain beautiful beautiful expressions and which are very widely used very very widely used so when you say you hear the term nucleation is thermo thermodynamically controlled or kinetically controlled all these kind of a thing then you know many times what is talking about nucleation that that if it follows with no barrier pathway even though the state is thermodynamically more stable that we will we will do now another very beautiful thing we will do just amazing the important things not usually covered in textbooks but we will do is the austral step rule and extremely important in present day scenario of solid state synthesis so so those which the thermodynamic control all these things are essentially we are talking about nucleation and so these are the two equations I just derived so this is the size of the critical nucleus and this is the barrier of the you know the beautiful equation to come of delta gv we all almost know this by by memory okay so now how do I do that how do I do now so I have a situation like that and this is my free anti-barrier delta g star my r star now you asked me what is the what is the rate how do I calculate the rate of nucleation Rn how do I calculate that ask a chemist that I have a barrier I have to go at the barrier a chemist will immediately say I know there is a back activation barrier I know what is activation barrier it is delta g star by KBT I know that okay well and good then what is the p factor so this part chemist will be then the chemist will scratch his head I am used to do transition state theory if I have a barrier I have a situation like that I write rate K equal to K Boltzmann factor by both H Boltzmann factor times temperature by Planck constant e to the power minus delta e star by star e star by KBT I know that this has been taught to me from school days that this is the rate of barrier crossing can I do it here okay so this is a Boltzmann factor the weight of the probability that the particle is at top that gives you this term that kind of problem this has to be correct then but how do I get this term I will do a chemical kind is a little bit somewhat dying towards the end of our road because we take a bond and we say okay the bond breaks and bond is a frequency a nu and h nu and that is about thermal energy KBT and then say okay nu is the frequency of breaking is KBT by h that is how we do it then how do I do it here how do I do it here well we do in a way not too different we will do in a way which is essentially follows these logic but in the process we do something really extremely beautiful which is very much like chemical kinetics and it turns out what we do is a chemical kinetics is a form of chemical kinetics and again the guy who did it is a nuclear physicist very famous nucleus and what he did here was essentially in the atomic bomb that same thing used in chain reaction and we will do a very chain reaction and in fission and this beautiful stuff so we will stop it here and in the next class we will be doing the result of its correction and finish the nucleation theory.


Smallholder women farmers in Nigeria's capital Abuja have expressed concern over the delay in ascending to the Federal Capital Territory Administration's annual budget and sick urgent intervention from the relevant body. They expressed worry over the delay and poor allocations of funds for agriculture in the FCT, which they say has persisted for more than three years. The Assistant Secretary of the Association FCT added that the delay has impacted their livelihood and initiatives aimed at enhancing food production, thus resulting in a high cost of food in the FCT. The delayed fund has hindered the implementation of training programs, information, extension services and market assets initiatives, which are crucial for enhancing productivity and income generation from these farmers and increased economic development for FCT and the nation at large. Consequently, the implication of these lamentable delay and untimely FCT agricultural appropriation being indicates increased prices of food items in FCT, while perpetrating a circle of low productivity, poverty, food insecurity and inequality, which directly impacts the well-being and development of rural communities. While applauding governments and other stakeholders for their continuous support to over a million small-scale women farmers across the country, they called on the Federal Capital Territory Administration to expedient actions to address the challenges faced by farmers for Nigeria to meet up with the Sustainable Development Goal of Zero Hunger by 2030 and for the Federal Capital Territory to play a spot toward food sufficiency, experts say adequate and timely budgetary allocation is required with specific attention given to small-holder women farmers. Small-scale women farmers' organizations demand immediate action to address the identified challenges and concerns through the following, timely approval and release of funds budgeted for agriculture and ensuring January to December budget circles as obtained in the federal and state budgets. Strengthening collaborations with relevant stakeholders, which include civil society organizations, women group and agricultural association to ensure the effective implementation of agricultural programs, also help to facilitate the provision of affordable credit and financial service tailored to the unique needs of small-holders women farmers to enable them to invest in their farming activities and improve their productive capacity and overall economic well-being. As committed citizens of Nigeria and as a group, we remain confident in the capacity and ability of Nigeria, an FCT specially to feed itself and other nations of the world. SoFON stands ready to collaborate with the FCTA, civil society organizations and others stakeholders to advocate for the rights and welfare of small-holder women farmers.

Ahoy hoy and welcome to The Escapist 2 and you might be thinking, that's not an SCP game. Oh Contrera. Let's take a look at some custom prisons I've downloaded. SCP, Breach Escape. The site is experiencing multiple Keter and Yukid level containment breaches, full site lockdown initiated. Let's play the part of a D-Class trying to escape from a Foundation site. I've given a couple of these a, actually no I should probably put that in the, hold on. Let's go back because I played a little bit just to get an idea of what the layout of the place was. And yeah, I guess I can just randomize these as many times as I want to. Start game. Now I've got a lot of experience with The Escapists, but I do not have much experience with The Escapist 2. And while they are essentially the same game, but The Escapist 2 is a much more advanced version of it, it is also, I don't know what the best way to put it is. Let's see who looks the most like Dr. Sumerian. I really not any of them. I'll just pick somebody who's distinctive looking like this guy. I was using Clive before, I guess I can use him again. Alright, Dr. Sumerian has joined the game. I guess this is also multiplayer, so that's the thing I can probably do eventually. Most, I'm just going to play this through like I would in a normal, like in the first game. Okay, so, uh, oh that's it. I have illegal things already, dang.  Alright, hold on, let's see if I've got up. Can't carry illegal things around, but a screwdriver is super useful. Anyway, um, yeah, I'm just probably going to have a lot of trial and error for this first time. They do, uh, uh, cell searches on a regular basis. I'm trying to say what the SCP theme to this is, other than someone just naming it SCP Containment Bridge, but we shall find out. I don't actually have to hang out here, but I do want to know who's getting their cell searched, since apparently I've got illegal stuff in mine, which I didn't know I did. Come on. Not me. Okay. I'm Clive, so as long as Clive isn't getting his cell searched, I'm fine. I just want a little bit of a break from the containment breach and, uh, what's it call it, secret laboratory. I was thinking about playing SCP Black Ox, I've mentioned a couple times I did a little bit of writing for it, but it wasn't really in the cards we'll say. So anyway, the whole point of this game is to play as a prisoner and try and escape. In this case, we are a bunch of D-Class, which I suppose we're not always doing testing, in this particular case. We're just kind of hanging out, chilling out, relaxing all cool, shooting some beef all outside of the school. I want a couple of guys who are up to no good, started making trouble in my neighborhood. I got in one little fight and my mom got scared and said you're moving with your auntie and your uncle to Bel Air. All right, well, I don't actually have to stick around. So I think this little check mark means that I've done what I needed to do for this particular, uh, whatever. So, all right, where's my, okay, Hayden, Dez's, Tony's. So there's this job time thing, which I'm not really sure what the hell I'm supposed to be doing. Um, I'm unemployed, but I still have a job, it seems. It's weird. I think I have to go down to the actual, the unemployment office for lack of a better term and be like, Hey, um, I heard you guys need me to get a job. Yeah. So, okay, it's good. You have to attend the job when you don't have a job. Speaking of the job, we'll reward you with money, apply for jobs to the job board outside the job office. So I got to talk to this guy. Okay, fair enough. And then I'm done. Okay. So I've got the rest of the time for, I've got the rest of the time for you, if you don't show up at the things you're supposed to, you raise a little bit of alarm, that's what these stars are, but you can still, okay. So I started down here, right? I think I did anyway. So hold on. I think my cell is probably in here somewhere. No, that doesn't seem right. I don't know where my cell is. Anyway, guards will be really angry at you. If you aren't in your ah-ha up here. Okay. Where's mine? Clive.  What are you doing? My bed. No, no, that's not my cell. Mad at me if I go in there. All right.  What are you doing? Oh, come on. I want to interact with this guy. So this is where I could buy stuff off people, but I don't have much money at the moment. How much money do I have? How do I check how much money I have? I don't know. Q. Okay, that does it. Tells me a lot of things. Money 10, which is what I got for being unemployed today, which is strange. OK, so this is the maintenance room. This is some sort of security room with a shower. This must be where like the security guys live. Huh, there's an MTF agent wandering around. Oh, an officer got killed. Hold on. I crap, I'm carrying contraband and I got to go through this. No, I don't. Wait, yes, I do. I lived I live up there and I've got to go through. There's no way I'll get through like just straight up. Wonky talky won't work. Yep. OK, they figured out that I got the key. Yep, they got. Yep, they noticed some dudes. Yeah, OK, that didn't work out too well. In the original game, it was like this too. You couldn't steal a key. If you stole the keys, they would immediately notice. So yeah, that's what happened. They noticed that I had stolen a key. Which is bad, but not terrible. So OK, so it's probably like the old game where you have to create like a wax. Oh, they're. Oh, OK. The rules were solitary. President went out their time in solitary appeal potatoes tasks. Peel potato tasks to be released sooner. Well, I guess I really would like to know what I'm doing. OK, so what is this? Like this? I guess. OK, that's interesting. I'm not seeing a whole lot of SAP themed things going on here. It's just day to day prison life, roll call. I got a roll call. This is the one thing you can't skip. Like other things you can skip and maybe like get a little bit of heat, which is what we're going to call it from now on.  But you absolutely cannot. Oh, I'm going the wrong way. Sorry. Oh, is lunch time? I thought it was roll call. Oh, I think I know what happened. I missed roll call because I was in prison. All right, fair enough. So the SAP 5,000 contest is going on right now. In case you guys somehow didn't know. What a really good entry is it seems. I haven't had a chance to read much of them all the way through. But I've been definitely meaning to. I don't think I'm going to do what I did with a 3K contest and just not read anything. But a lot of stuff got posted very quickly and a lot of it's very long. So all right, exercise time. I've always liked well, the original escape of someone with the hells going on in this game. But right. So. Also, I've got a new a new microphone, which is a little bit more sensitive. OK, so you don't really have to keep anything in particular back and forth, back and forth. Come on. I guess I can just hit them both at the same time. OK, I ran out of energy. Fair enough. I guess I'm done, actually, already. Got to get that energy back. Can I eat now again? Maybe I can grab another. No, OK. I can get energy back by laying in a bed or going to the shower. If it's anything like the last game. So it's just and I think shower time is going to be after exercise time anyway. Yeah, so let's go up here and take a shower. But the important part about this game is like to get a sense of what the what's the word I'm looking for here. You get into routines and you want to get your routines set first before you worry about like trying to break routines. So what can you skip and what can you skip, for example, drink a little bit of water, a little thirsty right now, kind of skipped on water a few too many times. I don't actually have to stay here, though. I could go up here, do a little bit more exercise. Get some more stamina going. OK, so apparently it takes energy regardless of if you're doing it right. It's free time, so I could just exercise because getting your abilities up is actually super important. You can't do a lot of things without having your abilities up. That's OK. This does increase my energy, right? Yeah. OK. Why are you hiding in there? You can hide in the lockers to run away from the guards. I'm not going to bother with that right now. I'm going to do a little bit of exploring because I want to know what this place looks like. Green doors there. That's a red door I can't go through. There are metal detectors everywhere, which means I need to figure out a way to get around this facility without actually I need to figure out how to get around this facility without actually having to go through the metal detectors, which I'm pretty sure the best that I'm going to have is where's my desk? Did I go too far down? I'm trying to remember where the hell I'm supposed to go. Where am I at? Hold on. Not up here, right? No, I am up here. OK. There's a ventilation system above these cells, which looks like I can get into. And there's no doors here. So as long as I'm not getting inspected tonight, I can and I have a screwdriver, which is what you use in the old game. Hold on. Let's see if. What are you doing? Get out of my room. They will sometimes yell at you like if they don't like you very much. Like, I don't know if this person likes me at all, but they don't like you very much. OK, so they're just kind of neutral to me. Yeah, they will. They'll tell them if you do things wrong, which is part of their. And in some versions of this game, or not some versions and some maps, you've got cellmates and you've got to keep your cellmates. Have job time again. OK, that's interesting. But since I'm unemployed, I guess I just got to go to the job office say, hey, I'm here. Actually, you know what? I'm going to skip job time and figure out how much he gives me. Because I don't know. I've played this game. I've played the the original one. You get like a partial heat for not going to your job, but you don't get like full heat for it. So it's possible that my job times yeah, they're going to tell me to get to my job. So I'm going to go to myself and I'm just going to lay down. Well, relax during job time. And then once it's over, we will see what happens. See how many stars I get for not going to my job. But it's not many. That means I can use job time as work time to try and escape. Oh, it's two hours here. Yeah, definitely. It's a lot of extra time in the daytime along extra time in the nighttime. So it's definitely worth it. Five K contest. Oh, man, so many good I saw a really good one from DJ Cactus, which got it's it was bound to be controversial because it was about Donald Trump, but it actually ended up doing so poorly that it got deleted out the wiki. There's another one by Yossi that I'm kind of finished. I didn't get around to it because somebody interrupted me, but I'm going to finish it up and see if it's it's the one that's leading right now. But it's only leading by a little bit and going to give it a look and see if it's the best one. I'm thinking of just promoting one, you know, just picking something and promoting it.  I'm what counts here. Yeah, OK. I believe you get off of my. You know, I actually need to figure out how to pick up my desk. All right, Sam. Oh, Sam likes me, actually. Oh, my bad. Wait, did that motherfucker? Someone took my screwdriver. Didn't realize they could steal the stuff out of your. Desk, they definitely couldn't do that in the other game. You could still at other people's best, but they could steal from you.   Now, in the old game, the weapon you were holding in your hand, you could get away with and go through metal detectors with. Nope. Yep, I got that. Well, that's the end of that screwdriver, probably. Oh, it didn't give me hardly any increase. So there's that. I don't really care about my health.  I'm also going to skip dinner because if it's not a lot of heat loss, then I'm not really that bothered by it. I need a screwdriver, though, for tonight. I also need to figure out how to get up on that.  Well, at least I know that's the important part. Now, this game is just about figuring stuff out. I guess probably you need to to attend to some part of your routine in order to. Actually, I can't miss the for sure. I can't miss the what's called. Got a little bit of heat for that. Missed dinner. Can't miss roll call. That is the one thing you cannot miss. So where's that? We'll give you a five star immediately. I'm moving.  There we go. You don't actually have to stay.  I need a screwdriver for tonight. Might not get it, actually. Probably won't get it, actually. So thinking if I get a screwdriver, I can pull down this great. But in the old game, you had to like create a paper machine great, which always seemed weird. OK, so that is you hold it on E and you can pick up stuff like the desk and I put it in the middle and stand on it. Maybe really annoyed if I can't find a screwdriver because those are probably pretty rare. Well, at least they got a file. That's something at least. I think you can follow your way up into the what to call it. That's the thief and Tony. Hold on. How do you use it? And I'm not using on this. I don't know if I can use on this. Just swinging it. Oh, oh, space bar did it. So I think screwdriver probably would have pulled that down in such a way as to space bird. Oh, well, that didn't matter because it wasn't enough. Anything else to take it out with. So I guess we're done for the day. That's unfortunate. Put our desk back over here and take a rest. We're going to bed. Time will accelerate. The day will change. All right, we got to go to roll call, but we don't have to bother with some of the other stuff. So that's that's good to know. I was wondering what the kind of heat increase would be. So I can just go straight here. He's going to tell me. No, he won't tell me to get back, I guess. Once I, once I attended roll call, that was all it cared about. All right, let's find another screwdriver, come on. Or another. Well, it only took it down to 55% though. That's useful. Always useful. It's also a contraband though. So that's the real question. All right, so a poster. Useful. If you break in, break a wall, you can put a poster up to cover it. But again, I'm learning everything fresh here. So a lot of this game's different than what I remember.  I think it'll be fine actually. Just start searching people's cells. I think I'm going to do.  I like there are no bars on these doors and actually really helps a lot. You might not think it would, but it does. The timber is probably going to come in useful later, but for the moment, to forget about it, forget about it.  We're fine, job time will be a little bit of a problem. These foods are useful because they can give you energy, so. Sheet of metals probably pretty useful too, actually. I mean, well, we'll find out one way or the other. Ah, well, worst comes to worst, we can file that a little bit. Job time, I should probably get to my job. But what I can, the important part here is that I can actually, got to get away from these MTF motherfuckers. One way or the other. Beef's desks, Clive's desks.  I'll get three uses out of this, I guess, yeah. This will knock it down to 10%. If we pick up another one of those, we'll be fine. Well, we don't have anything else to do, so let's go ahead and get to our sort of job, I guess. Oh, can't go this way. Go take me down to the job fair city, where are the somethings there, and I don't know. Yeah, my eyeballing, yeah. What you gonna do about it? All right, we got our job. Might as well sit down and do the thing. Hello, job seekers. Am I meant to be impressed? I don't know, are you? Also, I mentioned this earlier, I'm working with a new microphone and I'm trying my best to figure out how to use it properly. It's a better microphone, but it also picks up a lot more background noises, so there's like positives and negatives, and all these metal detectors makes this job a lot harder than it needs to be. Not impossible, the guard's gonna be over there. Once I can get up into the vents, I can go most places, it looks like. It seems like that's our best bet, actually.  It's funny that duct tape is against the, is like a contraband, but a poster, which is made from a magazine and duct tape, isn't somehow? I should probably go get some exercise because I gotta get my skills up one way or the other. Water again. You know, some of you might be asking yourselves, why aren't you a author writing for the SCP-5000 contest? And to tell you the truth, I don't know that I would even if I, I don't know that I would even if I was, what's the word I'm looking for here? Even if I was capable of entering the contest, but I'm not, so that kind of solves the problem regardless. I'm actually not allowed to participate in contests for, I don't know, it's reasons that I'd love to go into, but every time I talk about it, I end up getting certain other, hurting other people's feelings for lack of a better way of putting it. There's no other way to put it really, it's just that's what happens, so. So what's going on here? What is this? Upgrades desk, Avery's desk. Not my desk. Let's get something to eat. Sit down, take a little walk. New customization item, locked, what does that mean? Poor Dr. Sumerian. I wonder what he did to get himself demoted to D-Class. I guess we'll never know. I actually have to stick around here.  Let's go get some exercise or look at the library and stuff. I don't know, I don't know what I have right now. I feel like today is day two, let's go to the library. Okay, so this is how it works. I guess, yeah. Somehow it's more difficult than most of the other possible things you could be doing, but all right. Kind of just want to stay doing this for a little while. Try not to go on my heat, it's not going down. Maybe just have to avoid getting up to five stars before the end of the day? I don't know, I'm gonna run out of energy before I think I get this up to 40. I'd like to get it up to a number, a significant number somehow. All right, let's not, let's go to, yeah, I know what you're saying.  Get some showering done. I don't know why these statues are here, but yeah, I'm not allowed to enter into contests, which is probably a smart move on the Wikis part just for a variety of reasons. In the end, they're probably worried, I don't know. I know what they say the problem is, but it doesn't seem like that makes any sense whatsoever to me, so I like to pretend like, I guess that that's not what it is, but it's entirely possible that they just don't make sense. They've just decided to choose to, choose to do things that make no sense. Sometimes people do that. No accounting for insanity on other people's parts. I'm gonna start with searching people's desks again. Maybe somebody else has got something I can use. That part didn't, though. Okay, that's enough. All right, let's check Hayden's desk. Hayden, what you got? Nothing. Nothing useful. See, once I can get up into the vents, I can hide stuff up there, but if, I think I checked everybody already, didn't I? Everybody's been checked already. There's nothing else to get. Yeah, I'll just double check. Can't hurt. Free time, which means I can do anything I want to, including steel stuff from people's desks. This is not something you wanna do in actual prison, by the way.  It happens, but you do not wanna become known as the guy that steals from other people's stashes.   Which we do, that's entirely up to you. How, oh God, I guess the only options I really have is I can only get stuff that's contraband in these rooms. If they're not in some of these desks here, I absolutely can't get them. But yeah, yeah, thieves are like the worst because for obvious reasons. Money is so hard to come by in prison, like commissary stuff is basically your lifeblood, in a sense. Depending on where you are, like here in Alabama, they pretty much like you're forced to work. It's literally slave labor, but yeah, they force you to work, so. You don't have a choice. You have to work for them, and you work for pennies per hour. And you're supposed to like it. And you use those pennies per hour to buy, so sometimes stuff you absolutely need to have. Like, you have to have grooming products regardless, and they'll be like, you can't have beards past this length, or you know, you gotta do this, that, and the other thing. But they don't actually provide you with brazers or shaving cream. You have to buy it yourself. So they pay you pennies on the dollar, and then you have to spend that money in commissary to get stuff that is basically, like, basics that you need. Just ridiculous. Come on. But it's funny that in this game, where like the main thing you do, early on especially, but later on you probably have other options. But early on, the most important thing you can do is steal stuff from people's desks. I'm stealing food from people. That is not cool, man. Not cool at all. Do today. I can do more exercises, but I don't know, wow. Feel like, until I have a goal in mind, I don't know what I'm getting my stats up for, you know? Although they seem to be going up faster in this game than they did in the other game. The other game required quite a lot more. Clicking your keys together. I don't know. We're gonna get out of here somehow. I don't know how. I mean, I'm looking at this place, it's got two floors. There's a ventilation in between.  You can't go anywhere without metal detectors. There are cameras everywhere. So anything you do has got to be either underground or in the ventilation area.   Not only are these metal detectors, there's cameras here, too. So it's like doubly bad. The worst part is if I find something useful in here, it doesn't matter. I can't take it with me.  I think you can make a contraband. Let's see if I can get enough stuff together for a contraband bag. I think that's aluminum foil and duct tape. Okay, so duct tape, got that. Give him food. I mean, maybe if I can make a contraband bag, I can still ship from other people, too. Then, well, sheet of paper. I mean, in the old game, it was aluminum foil and duct tape. In this game, I have no idea. Oh, there's screwdriver. Man, those are super needed right now. Job time. Duct tape and a screwdriver. My God, there are three screwdrivers down here. No, I'm not gonna be able to keep any of them at all. Dinner time. We're skipping dinner. Pillowcase, sheet of paper. I don't even know if you can make a contraband bag in this game, or in this version of the game, I should say. Old box. Yeah, the aluminum foil, they make a pretty good weapon out of a sock and something particularly hard, so goddamn. Well, we're just gonna have to, it's not gonna help. It's not gonna work. Nothing I do here is gonna matter.  All right, I'm just gonna run for my desk and see if I can put something away in it. Oh, they found me.  Because they went into my room, they noticed that the what's-a-call-it had been damaged, which means I'll probably go back to my room and find all my contraband. Maybe, we don't know. We'll see. There's only one way to find out. Prison guards along suspicious behavior, knocking guard unconscious, it's about to report, this person will prevent him from doing so.  Who's getting shook down today? Is it gonna be me? That would be really unfortunate. No, Jebo and Dude. I was like, who's Jebo and Dude? Not me. Okay, so, I guess I need to go to bed tonight. They're gonna fix the thing I did. And plus they're angry at me about a lot of stuff. So, let's just go to roll call. We have some stuff. We got to keep it. They apparently decided that after all was said and done, don't check his desk for the contraband. We clearly had detected earlier.  So, why stay? As long as they're not gonna search my room, I'm gonna get started on working on this thing again. Or maybe I do need to stay in order for it to tell me. Or maybe it tells you after the, okay, Sam and Jebo, that's not me. That's a new noise. Let's get breakfast. I don't like having two stars. They're very on edge. Maybe we should just go through the day without screwing things up against the heat.  Haven't once been told to clean out SCP-173's cell. This site 19 simulator is very poor. And it seems like it's just a prison, really. I mean, what's going on besides prison? Maybe this is just like a D-class holding area. I gotta get up my amnestics in 30 days. All right, job time, which is simple. And I think after job time, we're gonna be, all right, we'll get this done. And then we'll go back to our cell. I feel like I wanna wait until this afternoon, but not afternoon this evening. And do try any kind of weirdness.  Okay. Like, I honestly don't know if it's even possible to build a, let's look, makeshift flatter, which is made out of what? Strange. Pretend flower. Sheet rope, timber brace, visitor's kit. Is it visitor's kit? Well, let's go look at these things when we're just having nothing else to do today. Fake wall block, fake vent cover that is made from tooth blobs, paper mache, and toothpaste. All right, well that, none of those things are contraband, so start searching people's desks for toilet paper and toothpaste.  Don't understand why everybody wants to go into my room for.  Not so far he didn't. Oh, it's glue. Okay, fair enough. Oh, but I can't do any of that stuff yet, can I? Hold on, let's look. Didn't I get it up to 40? Yes, I did. Paper mache. All right. We need glue and we need toilet paper. It's critically important we get that before tonight because even if the screwdriver doesn't give you the thingy-me-bobber, so I need glue, not toothpaste. Makes sense, I guess.  I gotta go to that. Can't skip the roll call. Top of toothpaste, that's not what I'm looking for. Maybe it is, I don't know. Let's see if we can get this done before roll call's over. Those are useful things.  Nothing. Maybe we'll steal that screwdriver a little bit later. Fuckin' trouble. Is it through here? Yeah, okay. So, okay. I could go through these because the things I need are not illegal. I carry around toothpaste and glue without getting in trouble. Oh, they don't put them together. Lunchtime, which I am going to skip. Alex's desk and Sam's desk. Sorry, Alex and Sam. If we can put together a fake vent cover, that would be good toilet paper. I'm gonna grab that anyway. Is it possible to put these together? Cue. No, it has to be glue. Okay, did I already go into this one? Don't know, gotta find out though. Don't eat that.    I'm nobody. I'm not a problem, I promise. And I'm not gonna be able to get back in time, so might as well do the thing. Clive's desk. Oh, they're angry. Are they angry? They're looking for me. All right, so there's a hidden compartment in this thing, but I don't know how to use it. I think what I need definitely do though, is get to exercise time before it's over, or else they're gonna get even more angry at me. So, yeah, I don't know. Wait, I don't think this is the right way. Let's check. I'm not gonna make it. Not gonna make it. Nope, not gonna make it. Let's not be in my room when this happens. Yep, I'm not gonna make it. I'm going the wrong way. What up, dog? All right, so it's this way, yes.  Let's not screw this up. I don't know how to use the hidden compartment though, so that's a problem. Let's not miss our schedule. There we go. Now, I'm just here to just, you know, relax and do the things I'm supposed to be doing. Nothing, nothing to see here. Let's go up here and actually take a shower. Yeah, I'm totally innocent of all things. I've never done anything wrong in my entire life.  Time's up, I have free time now.  So I think I can spend most of tonight trying to escape out that vent. Really wish I knew how the, what's a call it worked? All right, let's do this. Hold on, sorry, hit the wrong button. You know how to put stuff in the, oh, okay then. I guess, I don't know if putting stuff in the hidden compartment actually hides it. You would think the name being what it is, that it would, my nays are numbered. That's not nice, Harlow. What's wrong? What's wrong? What did I do? Be nice to me, Harlow. I'm a good, good, good, I used to be a doctor here and I was good at the job. So yeah, we start exploring, hopefully. I don't know that that's actually going to happen, but we definitely don't want guards coming into our room anymore. That was the problem last time. They've detected all my damage because they came in my room. So I had not let them come in and it would have been fine. I can store things in the vents. So once I get into the vents, I can store things in the vents, but until then, I can't store things in the vents. All right, job time. Let's go do that. Let's just do everything. Let's not raise our levels at all. Okay, hold on, it's this middle one, right? This is the only way to actually get there. All right, so we're gonna go this way. Yeah, I got you. Literally moving as quickly as possible. Everybody needs to calm down. Oh, I'm pathetic, am I? No better satisfaction than working for a pittance.  I will thank you for the whatever that was.  Okay, taking a nap. Just gonna relax, chill out, find my center. Probably gotta go to roll call next. Or dinner? Probably dinner, which we already did in there. Did I skip dinner? I don't know. It's a problem, I don't know the, I don't know the, I don't know. I don't know the routine. Routines are very important in this game. In prison, routines are probably just as important actually, and it's funny, but this part right here, where you just have to sit here and do nothing and figure out a way to stay entertained anyway, I suppose the ability to talk to yourself about stuff would be useful, but not gonna kill it a little crazy. You know I'm innocent, right? Well, I don't care. Neither does the SCD Foundation.  See, this is the other half of, you've been demoted to D-Class. Everything about the idea of demoting someone to D-Class, who knows that the D-Class are killed at the end of every 30 days, sort of spoils the fun, doesn't it? God, is that guy walking around? I see this is the fun part.  And I would try to walk around with like a screwdriver in my hand and they're like, when you see that screwdriver, get him. FBI, open up. I should probably steal some food again. Okay, I'm gonna need it tonight, aren't I? Yeah, I just remembered that, which I gotta go to dinner first, though. Where's the food that I... All right, hold on.  Lump of sugar, that's interesting. Let's get the... I guess I'm skipping dinner. It's funny that I'm skipping dinner so I can find food. I'm gonna need it later for energy reasons. Yes. No, because sugar cubes apparently don't give you any energy, so I'm gonna have to go to... Yep, and things got a little bit more serious. One second. Can't miss roll call. It's food from other people before it's all over and done with. Let's check the... I mean, where did this stuff I put back ago? So I've had some cookies and some energy drinks. I like maybe a chocolate bar, I think. Nope, that's component two. Oh, it's consumable. Okay, good. That's something, at least. Chocolate bars. Good. And let's... Did I almost get... Yeah, okay, so they're not checking my room. Good. That's very, very good. So I've got food. We are going to... What this is gonna do for me. We're gonna try it. Let's see what we got. Okay, so it does... All right. Way better than the file was. Does it give me an item that's placeable? Yes. What is this? I'm gonna break through each of these. That's gonna need to file. God damn. All right, but there's a wall here. So I can go through this area, probably. All right. Well, hey, you know what? We're in... We're in did something here. The important part turned out I didn't need the fake vent cover, but still. So we can drop stuff up here. So right mouse button is this. Contraband can be dropped up here, except for our one screwdriver. What's... I was like, what the hell's going on? All right, hold on. Nope. That's the fake vent cover, which we'll keep just in case we need it for something. At the very least, we've got some storage space. I feel like we should maybe... I don't know how this is gonna work. Okay, so you can put that down there. Let's just drop this. We gotta figure out how this works. So, fake vent cover. All right, so we can put the fake vent cover there. And yeah. Yeah, that's a ticket. Yeah. All right, so that's the end of the video.

This is State Tech Hawaii, Community Matters here. It's Thursday again, three o'clock. Welcome to Kondo Insider, Hawaii's show about association living. We've been doing this show for about two years now. We get lots of questions and community response to what we do. In fact, on January 4th I had our guest here, Steve Glanstein, talking about annual meetings. And we had so many questions after that show about voting, and because we are in the annual meeting time of year, I decided to ask Steve to come back and talk to us just about the issue of voting. So welcome to the show and remind everybody who you are. Thank you very much, Richard. My name is Steve Glanstein. I'm a professional registered parliamentarian, nationally certified, which means I'm basically an expert in Robert's Rules of Water, newly revised, which is mandated for condominiums and community associations in the state of Hawaii. How many PRPs are there in Hawaii? There's about a half a dozen PRPs, just a few of us who work with condominiums and community associations. Now do other organizations like conventions use parliamentarians? Conventions, I do a couple of churches. I've even done a couple of dog clubs. And there's a lot of groups that will use parliamentarians. It's not unusual. Wow, that's exciting. Anyway, we were talking last time about the annual meetings about voting. And a lot of questions came out about voting, recording votes, what happens if this happens or that happens. Let's kind of break it down into board meetings and annual meetings or homeowner meetings, member meetings. So how do boards vote?  Well, board voting is different than association of owners at annual meetings. So board voting is different because in Hawaii, boards of condominiums and community associations have to record the votes of how their directors vote in the minutes for all sessions except for executive sessions. So those recorded are there. And usually, if you're on a board, there's no proxy voting. You're elected to the board.  So you're speaking as a single board member. So there's nobody who technically represents you if you're not there. So you have a different environment in boards than with board voting. The largest board I know for condo is usually nine people. That's pretty much the average for a large association. Do they actually have to have a written ballot that someone says, I move, we paint the building blue? That they actually have to have a ballot and write it and fill it and record it? Or is it a rising hands vote or some other type of vote? Yeah, they have problems if they use a ballot unless they record how their directors vote. There are a couple of boards actually in Hawaii that are larger than nine. There's one board out in the east end of our island that's got 13 people. And another one on Maui that actually has 10 people. But they're still considered small boards. 12 members are less at the meeting. Generally, that's considered a small board. And the rules are relaxed, but when it comes to the voting, there's an override in the statute, in the legislative statutes that overrides Roberts that does require that the voting indicate how each director voted, as I said before. Now, however they vote, whether they vote by hand or voice, it's important that they record how the individual directors voted. But there is no mandate they have to have a written ballot? No, not for board meetings. I do a lot of association meetings, a lot of board meetings. And I haven't seen a mandate for a written ballot in any board meetings. How about, you know, the big thing I always see come up is when you have the organizational meeting, which is a board meeting, and they're voting for the next officers, like the president and vice president. Can they do secret ballots? Because you have the statute that says, I'm supposed to record how everybody voted. Okay, well just to make sure your viewers know, Richard, that it's usually an annual meeting. And then there's another meeting following the annual. It's usually a board meeting called an organizational meeting. At that meeting, the board members, the newly elected ones, usually will elect officers. So the officers are elected directly by the board there. At that particular meeting, it's usually limited to just electing officers. It's not one of the permitted uses of executive session. So it's open to the owners. Owners can participate. And when the board does vote for their officers, unless it's unanimous, they've got to record how the directors voted for each of their officer candidates. Is it prohibitive? Because, you know, a lot of people, everybody knows everybody. It's not really controversial. Could someone make a motion at that organizational meeting saying, I nominate Steve for president, Richard for vice president, Sue for secretary, and Sally for treasurer. Is it a total ballot? And it gets passed, let's say, unanimously because everybody knows everybody. Can they do that? That's actually commonly done. And then the minutes will show that they agreed by unanimous consent to elect this particular slate. When there's no controversy and nobody insists on a separate election, that makes it much simpler and gets done in a matter of seconds. So from a protocol procedure point of view, there's nothing wrong with that? No. And then, just briefly going back to voting and recording the votes, that doesn't apply to executive session, though, right? No, that does not. So should boards keep minutes of executive sessions? Well, if they did any official action there, they should. There's no excuse for not having minutes. You need to have minutes for executive session. Whether you keep them with your attorney, whether you just make one written copy and don't distribute it, or you need to have minutes that substantiate whatever activities were done in executive session. Yeah, I think it's important to note that an executive session that, or minutes in general, you don't have discussion. They all have discussion about maybe setting a lawsuit to pros and cons. None of that appears in the minutes. It's going to be the action taken by the board versus all the dialogue that went beforehand. Yeah, and that's a very critical point. Because what if you adopt a motion in the executive session to settle a case for no more than a certain amount? The last thing you need is to have that in the minutes of the regular session. That would damage the association. So putting it in the executive session means also it needs to be kept confidential. But what people said wouldn't go in those minutes, because that's what somebody hears, what they thought they said, and that's not what the purpose of minutes. You think of minutes as official action, then you're really not going to go too wrong on it. I know this is probably not desirable, but sometimes there's an emergency and the boards do a vote by email for lack of a better word. How do you address that? Well, the way I address that is I tell them, you may have approved it by email, but it's not an official action unless you approve it at a specific board meeting, which is a quorum present.  It's my understanding too, let's say you wanted to hold a special meeting for a particular purpose because you needed to spend money for this plumbing repair. They can do it by telephone. They can call a special meeting. And the important thing is a notice to all the board members to attend. And even though the statute requires some notice to the owners, it's when practicable in the words, they're actually in the statute. I think they could call a special meeting on an emergency basis to approve the repair of the gas line, for example. It has actually gotten easier with Chapter 514B because they've provided for having telephonic communication or simultaneous communication. So if I'm here at a board meeting, you're on the telephone, I've got to be able to hear you. You have to hear me. Other people on the phone have to be able to hear you as well as me simultaneously. And you can have a meeting that way. I think we have made a lot of progress in that area. I would remind all of our viewers that it's important to take minutes. And it's important to record all the votes of the directors and be aware that these have legal consequences and risks for the association and it's important you maintain accurate records. But I'd like to go on to what I'm going to call a member meeting, annual meeting, special meeting of the homeowners and how voting kind of works there and how it's different. But you might begin by just reminding everybody that there's been cumulative and straight voting. Okay, cumulative voting is a system of voting which allows a minority to ascend and to have an increased opportunity to get a person elected to a board. It actually was used in Chicago in the 19th century with the election of Alderman and it was stopped several years ago. And essentially what it means is if you have a certain number of positions open for election. For example, if I have three positions open for election, an individual can vote three times for one person, twice for one and once for another or once for each of three different people. And as you can imagine, that can get kind of complicated if we have eight or nine positions open all the combinations. But it does mean that if somebody has a small number of votes and they can accumulate them, that's the word cumulative voting, to have a better opportunity to elect someone to the board. And we had the law changed a few years ago to clarify that whenever there is cumulative voting, it implies that those with the most votes will automatically be elected beginning with the longest terms. Well, let's just assume you have five people running. And three people are elected and two are tied.  Well, you're saying there's five people running for three positions, right? No, there's five positions. Five positions. And maybe 20 people running. But at the end of the day, three clearly had the votes. Two, the next person, those two are tied.  Well, the ones who got elected, they're elected already. The ones who tied, we don't know which one got elected, so we would have to re-ballot. And it's really important to make sure you have balance in order to do that should you get a tie. And this situation does occur. Sometimes it happens when they tie for the different terms where they have a three-year term and a two-year term and then they have a tie with two people with the different terms and then they have to re-ballot on it. So it has happened. Can they avoid re-balloting if the parties themselves said I'll take the two-year and I'll take the one-year term? Could they just by consent avoid having to have the second ballot or would they have to have the second ballot? Well, some by-laws allow for written consent for waiving the ballot if there's no contest. But most of the by-laws we work with will say something like secret ballot may don't give you that exception. If you don't have the exception, you end up having to re-ballot and sometimes that can be problematic because you can have a tie or people don't reach the necessary requirement in order to get elected. So that's a function of their by-laws. If the by-laws require a ballot and you don't want that election to be challengeable then you have to go do the ballot. I've actually saw an association on Kauai one year. We had that exact example and the two parties said I'll take the two-year and I'll take the one-year and the owners objected because in the end the guy was thinking the two-year they didn't like that much and when we did the vote it actually ended up reverse. So the owners have a certain amount of authority and it's protecting that authority when it comes to the secret ballot requirement. In our practice we try to get our association clients to get the by-laws to permit a waiver. That way if they really don't have a challenge on it and nobody wants to challenge it, why not let it in? Most known is they don't want to re-ballot on it. If you have a dispute and someone says well I want the one-year, I want the two-year clearly there's a dispute they can ballot. So we tend to push our associations if they're going to amend the by-laws to look towards waiving the ballot when it's not necessary. Now realize an owner can always force a ballot just by nominating somebody else. There are associations out there. You know one of those common problems I see because we're a relatively friendly industry. We'll have three people running for three seats and nobody wants it, nobody's unhappy, there's no controversy and you have to go through this secret ballot because the by-laws say secret ballot which kind of takes a lot of time when you know kind of in advance what the results are going to be. Are there associations out there where the by-laws waive the secret ballot requirement? Yes, and we've been successful in getting associations to amend their by-laws. We're working with a couple of developers now to make sure that new projects they will provide for a waiver if there's no election contest. So we're trying to make a difference for associations. It might be helpful if the legislature could help on that and provide some sort of waiver in the event of a ballot if there's no contest then you could waive it. Otherwise we're hopeful that the Robert's Rules people will look towards amending that bringing it up to date in the next edition. One of the interesting things you may not remember this goes back a long time ago but I do a lot of work with developers and when we help them provide the initial governing documents for review you actually helped me write language in those projects. We had the waiver of the secret ballot when there was a consensus to who was going to take what term. Because it simplifies things to be honest with you. Yeah, and all an existing association has to do is to get deadlocked for four or five ballots in one evening and they become real believers in being able to waive it when there's no challenge in having it when you need it as well as making sure that those with the most votes get in. So associations usually become believers on this after they've had to go through the process. Oh yeah, because I remember many times people in the audience, the owners, the assembly would be upset because they want to get home to watch Y5O and they want another results and we have to wait for all of this when it's kind of a, everybody knows what the results are going to be. So it was like I want to go home, what do you mean? We have to do all of this. We've seen that where the need to go home is far more important in their mind than the need to have an election concluded. So you don't want to lose your quorum because you're in the middle of this and you're missing Y5O or NCIS or one of those Tuesday night meetings and shows that come on. It is important. I was being very local by using Y5O because I wanted to give credit to our film industry here because it helps our state in my opinion. So when we get into voting, just briefly again remind everybody what a proxy is. A proxy is a power of attorney given by one person to another. In this case it would be given by an owner to either an individual, board of directors in two different ways or to be used only for quorum and it allows that owner to get some form of representation at a specifically designated association meeting. We're going to take a short break for one minute and I have a lot more questions about this and coming up to be my magical question is can you have writer and ballot? So we'll be right back to tell you the answers to that question. Welcome to Sister Power. I'm your host Sharon Thomas Yarbrough where we motivate, educate and power and inspire all women. We are live here every other Thursday at 4 p.m. and we welcome you to join us here at Sister Power. Aloha and thank you. Aloha. My name is Mark Shklav. I'm the host of Think Tech Hawaii's Law Across the Sea. Law Across the Sea comes on every other Monday at 11 a.m. Please join us. I like to bring in guests that talk about all types of things that come across the sea to Hawaii. Not just law. Love, people, ideas, history. Please join us for Law Across the Sea. Aloha. Welcome back to Kind of Insider. We're talking about voting in association meetings and we've talked about board meetings and how they differ from an association. We were just in the throw of what we call annual meeting or special meeting of all the owners and I hope all of you out there was pondering my question. I asked the true or false for electing people for director in an association meeting. So the question now to our expert, true or false, you can have write-ins on association ballots at an annual meeting. Yes. It's true. Have you ever seen it? Yes. Sometimes people write in some very interesting names who are non-owners. People have written in Mickey Mouse. They've written in Bill Clinton. Bill Clinton was the most humorous because there was a William Clinton who was a whole unit owner in that association. So it was a valid vote. Those things have happened. In other cases, a write-in has actually gotten elected. We've had a deadlocked election up in the country a few years back and what they did is continue the meeting at the continued meeting. They had nominations and they wrote in the name after the nominations were closed. They wrote in the name of somebody and in that case they had nominations of John and Fred for example and meanwhile people had agreed they're going to vote for Sally and so they did the voting and everybody wrote Sally in and she got elected. It was valid. John and Fred were not happy but Sally was elected to that high-paying part of director's job. Yes. Certainly in your example if you wrote in a non-owner or a non-human that would be just kind of a void I mean you can't elect Mickey Mouse so I mean how would you record it? We don't have a humanity exception of the statute I don't believe however they have to be on title or somehow an owner or a representative according to the state law so they could do that but what we would record is one ballot voted invalid for a non-owner. You wouldn't write Mickey Mouse. No, you would not write Mickey Mouse, Donald Duck because people just get who-who and they don't like anybody and they don't like the world and it's not like even they don't like the people they just don't like anything and they write in crazy stuff all the time but I was more interested in your comments about legitimate right in ballots whether people can legitimately let the nominations are closed or is it a valid position to say I'm sorry the nominations are closed so Sally is ineligible. No, the eligibility is determined as well as their by-laws and the whole purpose of a ballot is to allow secrecy and one of those elements of secrecy is that an individual owner could write in the name of somebody that they want and sometimes like I said a very few times someone will get elected usually the right-ins if they're valid don't get a lot of votes sometimes someone will write in about a name even if a person is withdrawn because they really want to indicate their support for that person in my experience of 1,700 1,800 meetings is very rare for a write-in to get elected I don't think I see it I know the answer but I want people to understand this when I go to annual meetings we know we have secret ballots for the election of directors we also see we pass an IRS roll-over resolution sometimes we're approving the auditor the management company and those are done kind of by voice kind of a resolution if there's no objection this resolution right so what you're saying is they're not required to have a secret ballot usually when you look at bylaws they'll say the election of directors shall be conducted by secret ballot in accordance with some section of the bylaws they'll put the requirement in there they'll say at such annual meetings directors shall be elected by secret ballot and sometimes they don't even have a secret ballot requirement in special meetings so we've had cases where special meetings did not have the requirement annual meetings did waive the ballot in a special meeting but those things that you mentioned like a tax resolution approving the management contract usually those get approved by unanimous consent if there's no objection an IRS tax resolution will be adopted and then you pause since there's no objection the IRS tax resolution is adopted what if one person objects the chair notes there's an objection that has been made is there a motion to approve the IRS tax resolution is there a second it's moved in seconded to approve the IRS tax resolution is there any debate take the debate and then you would go to a vote more than likely it would be a ballot and as a matter of practice we generally try to find out what the person's objection is it could be and usually as they don't understand what it means and then further explanation we've usually seen them withdraw their objection then it goes through in a matter of seconds I would remind you at this moment about one of your and my historic moments actually you were the parliamentarian but I was the president of an association and if I remember correctly I had 1700 proxies and about 50 people showed up where we did this actually by the interest of time by a rising hands vote we raised your hands because we had about 25 against the motion 25 and favor the motion but I was the people in favor and I had 1700 proxies and so I declared in favor of winning and then explained that the one hand raise had 1700 proxies because nobody wants to sit there for two or three hours while you count all these ballots 1700 ballots is going to take some time we did have one case at a time share and removal the lady had 2800 ballots the board had 700 so they didn't buy the counting it was really a very simple process given that she had 2800 ballots or 2800 proxies they're not even going to give her a ballot as she said yes it was approved so that has happened with us as well as others. Well kind of leads into my major question and a bill that was introduced HB 2630 I think the number is because the one thing I would tell you after doing this for 25 years is the number one complaint I get when I go to meetings is how long it takes to count the ballots and when you start looking at an association with a lot of members cumulative voting multiple vacancies you can I don't know I can see these sometimes take over an hour sometimes two hours to count the ballots why don't we have any technology what's HB 2630 say? Well HB 2630 is designed to get us into the 21st century obviously in extreme cases it's taking a couple hours just to count for an election and the owner happiness level goes down very quickly when it starts taking over an hour hour and a half to count it's long overdue in my view that we have electronic voting methods that will work at the meeting I've seen it with clients before that were not in the condominium area where they get the results in seconds not an hour but in seconds so 2630 is proposing to say look if you have an electronic if you have a secret ballot requirement you will also be able to do an electronic use an electronic voting device and then it provides for an audit trail and a couple other things to make sure that we have some sort of protection but the electronic voting device today the technology is there to be able to use it and I believe that if we at least get the enabling legislation hopefully within the next few years property management companies homeowners associations will be able to take advantage of this technology in order to do elections and other voting quickly and more efficiently from my perspective I think you're right it's long overdue and so long as you build in the safeguards you know the device you got accurately flex your voting power so if you've gotten proxies or whatever it's accurate and if there's changes that's being updated automatically if you have enough safeguards built into it it seems to make sense to find an easy way with an audit trail we can count ballots quickly and make these meetings more pleasant yes definitely and I think as I said it's long overdue and I found that nobody walks out of four hour annual meetings happy but they sure do walk out happy when it's been 30 to 40 minutes people do like short meetings and doing the election doing it quickly, efficiently, accurately like that is something and having that audit trail is something that's going to help make these meetings much more productive is important because a lot of time people who weren't elected want to go see that was treated fairly and counted accurately and frankly I would bet that the technology is probably going to be more accurate than the human error that I see all the time because it gets complicated and some of these percentage of the common interest are five did five decimal places long you know and so it gets complicated yes the meeting last night was seven decimal or two nights it was seven decimal places that's a very difficult percentage if you haven't in the computer then you don't have somebody sitting there with an adding machine trying to add it up or making sure that they don't mess it up on a spreadsheet because you'll have it checked in advance and having that audit trail I believe prints out you know basically you got to protect the secrecy of that owner voting what can say this percentage voted for this this percentage voted for that and I think they can do it well in a way we do it now with our state elections you go in your sign in privately and they give you a ballot it may have a serial number for a lot of purposes you can actually translate who voted for who and you have to do an awful lot of work to do that but we're down to two minutes so give me a one-minute horror stir when you do this wrong okay the real horror stories that come out of annual meeting elections are when you find I call it the morning after you either get a call in the morning after or you were there and then you get the call in the morning after we're so sorry but the results that we announced last night are not the results of who got elected they got the terms messed up or it turned out someone should have been elected and wasn't elected those are the horror stories that come out generally speaking they blame the managing agent for it sometimes it's one person's fault sometimes it's a computer fault we don't know but what happens is in this case if they want to do a recount they actually have to do a special meeting for the purpose of authorizing that recount and then recounting so it's not a simple process but it does take some time and definitely cost association or a managing agent a lot of money to fix so that's the real horror story if you have any election there's any question about those numbers make sure they're checked and double checked before the meeting adjourns we don't want any hanging chads do no hanging chads thank you for being here you are one of my most fascinating and most enjoyable people I talk with because this is quite an interesting field and we're going to be doing in the future I've told you this before stories of horror stories of meetings or associations and what happens when you do things wrong and frankly how much are costs and so we're looking forward to having you back again I want to thank everybody for watching Kondo Insider we hope you find our show enjoyable we're trying to educate and help all of you understanding association business next week we have Jane Sugimura back legislature just went into session we have about 60 new bills affecting associations we're going to start talking about a few of those so again aloha and thank you for watching Kondo Insider


Welcome, this is Melissa Armo with the Stock Swishing and Revealing Facebook. I called calls in this this morning and actually they worked. This kept up this morning with the market. Again, this was an options trade. So the benefit of doing options is you pay less than you would if you needed the cost of it to get by the stock on margin, although you could have day traded this as an equity trade today. But it was a lot cheaper to do it as an options trade. Why? Because the price of the stock now is well over $280 a share. So doing options is a more cost effective way if you have a small trading account. You can buy one contract and something like this. Anyways, long story short, this kept up today with the market. Market made no hives. Facebook is strong and looking here where it was, it closed at $276.97. Boom. Opened in the morning at $279.16. Nice move up in this, continued even into the pre-market and a nice play. And again, we'll see exactly where this market wants to go. Once you could have done this today as a day trade. We did not, but we did it as an option. You could be out. You could still be in it. I said earlier this week, and actually said in Ameritrade yesterday, we need to see some traction, some traction in things. So let's see if we're finally going to get it, like if this is it. Because that's really what, as a trader, as an active trader, again, I play momentum. I'm playing momentum with the guy. You've got to get movement. If you don't have a movement and momentum, there's no way to make any money. So December is the month you've got to be careful. It'll be interesting to see if we really get a volatile month, and like I'm expecting, because we really did not have that in November. But beautiful bullish call here today on Facebook, beautiful bullish gap. And we'll see where it goes here. Good luck, everyone. If you're interested in learning my method, the last class for 2020 is December 12th and 13th. Email me if you'd like to sign up. Have a great day, everyone.


The third war can start in Azerbaijani Karabakh at any moment. The situation in Karabakh is getting tense. There are two tension points here at the moment. First, trucks have been standing at the border near Lachin Road for 10 days. Now there are 21 of them. Yerevan demands to let them go back to Karabakh. But Baku says that Armenia uses the Lachin Road for the rotation of military personnel and this is a gross violation of the Sochi agreements. This was said by Russian political scientist Sergei Markov. Official Baku has opened the way for food supply through Agdam. But the Armenian authorities do not want to use that road because it passes through the territories under the control of Azerbaijan. Armenia closed the road through Agdam with concrete slabs. There are always international negotiations on this issue. Armenian authorities are collecting statements of support from US congressmen and others. Secondly, the Azerbaijani authorities arrested a person who lived in Karabakh and went to Armenia on the road to Lachin because he was suspected of war crimes during the First Karabakh War 30 years ago. And many Armenians fear that they too may be accused of the same war crimes as the First Karabakh War. This rise in tension can turn into hostility at any moment and the Third Karabakh War may begin, he said.
