Your Coca-Cola bottler presents Claudia, based on the famous play and novels by Rose Frankin. Brought to you transcribed Monday through Friday by your friendly neighbor who bottles Coca-Cola. Relax and while you're listening, refresh yourself. Have a Coke and now Claudia. David, Mr. Tucker, I'll be here any minute. I am finished almost. I have never heard of such nonsense in all my life. What nonsense is business of buying a cow on the installment plan? That's an idea. We can't work out a deal for cash with Warren. Maybe he would consider installments. I didn't mean paying for the cow on installments. I meant buying it on installments. One day you've bought a cow. The next you haven't. Mr. Warren wants to sell. He doesn't want to sell. They order these things differently in New England. I like old Mr. Tucker, but I think he's made something very simple, very, very difficult. If you hadn't got him mixed into all this, you'd have just simply gone out and bought a cow. Oh, that's what you think. It hadn't been for Mr. Tucker. Mr. Warren wouldn't have even considered selling a cow. Now, after four days, he's only considering it. You don't even know how much he wants for this cow. Mr. Tucker didn't think the time was right to discuss price yesterday. David, how much do you think Mr. Warren will want? I don't think she'll be cheap. A hundred dollars? A hundred dollars won't buy much of a cow. A hundred dollars will buy an awful lot of milk. Oh, that must be Mr.... Oh, Tucker here. Tucker here. You're not ready? You'll be here breakfast, will you? That's my middle of the hour. Good morning to you, Mrs. Brown. Good morning. Good morning to you, Mr. Tucker. Still of the mind to buy that cow? Still of the mind. The question is, are we of a pocketbook, too? That's the crux of the situation. Matthew Warren's a hard man to drive a price with, who's the sharpest trade and I ever did to keep Matthew from mentioning a price. Let him mention a price and you're done for. Let him once hear his own voice say a figure and all haters in high water won't budge him from it.  More, son, more. More than what? More than I hope we're going to give him. You won't buy that cow cheap, son. I'm afraid not. Well, come along, you young ones. Time's a curdling in the veins. Get out your horse and buggy and let's be on our way. Well, the way I figure it, Matthew, is we might have a light with it. Early frost to tighten up the ground and then a nice, easy winter. Yeah, a lot of signs point to a hard winter though. No, nope, nope, nope, nope. The way I figure it, weather goes in cycles. You mean one bad year and one good year? Nope. There you go. There's good eating apples that grow, Matthew. Uh-huh. Well, the weather's got a lot of time to turn around in. It comes in 40-year cycles, I figure. 40-year cycles? Yup. Expert in weather, I am. Student, you might say. Seen two 40-year cycles, I haven't. She's coming right to the way I figure. Remember the winter in 1907? If you're asking me, I don't. Matthew, I could stand another apple.  You know what the hard thing is, we'll put apples each day. We've talked about crops and weather and an old harness that broke the days when they raised cranberries. The weather again, the saw Mr. Warren bought from old Mr. Tucker. Now we're back to the weather again. We're back at the beginning of a 40-year cycle. Nobody will talk about the cow we want to buy. David, why don't you take the bull by the horns and just... Haven't you got your metaphor slightly mixed? No, the cow by the horns and jump right in. We're angels and Jared Tucker, fear to tread. I'm right, I'm never wrong. That winter was the same year I had the twin heifer calves out of my old design cow. You had the trotting horse named Barbara B. What won that race, county fair? That was a good year. Ah, yes, but it was a hard winter. So it stands to... Look, Mr. Warren, I hate to interrupt this discussion, but I'm afraid I'm a direct man. I can be direct too, son, whenever I mind, sir. Well, what we're really here for is to find out the price you want for the cow that we want to buy and determine whether it's a price we can afford to pay. Whether it's a fair price. I'm a man of fair prices, Jared. Not like some people like me, if I was pushed to it. Ah, still harping over that dang old sow you bought from me. Most men had charged her off to profit and loss and experience.  And I ain't going to go to an old coop like you to buy experience. You bought the sow? Well, take the experience too. It was for free. Practically, I didn't charge much for it. Anyway, I wasn't sure for certain that sow would have no more pigs. I'm sorry, Mr. Warren, that our business with you about a cow has to get mixed up in the middle of your business with Mr. Tucker about a pig. In the middle of Jared and I have been fighting over that sow for 12 years. 12 years? Yeah, 12 years she's all let and done with. Matthew, you'll never get the better of me in a trade, so why don't you stop trying? 12 years. We're not making a short memory in this part of the country. 12 years. Mr. Warren, if we don't start talking about your cow now, she'll be dead and we'll be buying her daughter before we get around here. All right, all right. Let's talk. Well, now you must have some idea of a price in your mind. I have. Right here in my pocket, I have a figure written down. Don't say it, Matthew, and don't show it. But that's what we're here to find out.  We're off again, David. Examine it for what, Jared? Examine it that you've set a fair price.  These two youngins, they don't know much about cows. Ain't you enough to pick out the best one in my herd? Babes in the woods. And she's a good cow, but she's maybe not the best one in the world. And these youngins are your neighbors. You want to live peaceful with them. You want them to look up to you and revere you. Straight is the way, and narrow is the gate, Matthew, and it won't be long before you have to go through it. You won't want to be carrying the burden and sin of a shop trade, and use yourious price to these two youngins. There's short shrift for users in heaven, Matthew. Ain't Peter will be examining you about my sow, Jared. Long before he'll be talking to me about the cow, you young Nautens might want to buy from me. We're back on the saw again. Jared and I are never very far from it, Mr. Nautens. However, Jared just gave me an idea. I don't give much away. But if I gave you an idea, it was probably a good one. You like these young Nautens, don't you, Jared? Well, uh... Oh, well, uh... The manner of the... Give an idea, so we might as well give compliments. They're fine people, good neighbors, and fine young people. What's the catch? That was a lovely compliment, Mr. Tucker. Generous man I am, generous. And, uh, you know a lot about cows. And you're a good neighbor, too, at heart.  Well, Matthew, I'm not going to deny it. A fair man? No, I'm not going to deny it. What you said warms the cockles of my heart. What's the catch? No catch. But since you're such a known and fair man, I'm going to let you set the price of the majesty count. Me? You can't do no such thing to me! I'm doing it. You set the price, and the Nautens will know it's fair, and I'll be satisfied because I'll know it's fair. I think I know. It's a little unconventional, but it seems fair enough to me. Fair! Fair! Who said I was fair? I never claimed to be fair. What's fairness got to do with the trade? All you need in trade is your witch with you. I got my witch with me. God dang you, Matthew Warren. This is the snidest trick you ever played. I know that you know that I know that you know I know how much this majesty count is worth. Then you name the price, and I'll abide by it. I... I could say a hundred dollars. Oh, she's worth more than that. Jared knows that. Or if he doesn't, he'd be proven he doesn't know much about cows. Who says I don't know much about cows? I know all there is to know about cows.  What's the use of modesty? You'll be good, you're good. I'm not a man for hiding a light under a bushel. Well, by the light you're not hiding under a bushel, Mr. Tucker. How much do you say the cows worth? The cow? How much is she worth? Yeah. She's worth more, I'd like to say. Well, say it, Mr. Tucker. She's too much. Well, there's them that have paid 3,000 and more for cows. I wouldn't say it was any better than this here majesty cow. 3,000 and more. Them as did wasn't farmers, least ways they weren't New England farmers from around here. Matthew, you were thinking of these young ones as city folks or gentlemen farmers with lots of easy money? I'm looking on them justice, I would be looking on you, Jared. I'm afraid we're back to the sour Jared's soul. Just as you'd be looking to me, eh? Matthew, this is a ganged hard thing you're doing to me. Making me cut my own throat in the trade. But if I was buying the majesty cow, I'd do... Well, I wouldn't pay you a durn sent more than $450. A dollar over that and it'd gall me. Any dollar under would be so much greater. $450. That's an awful lot for a cow. Yeah, but it's a fine cow, darling.  It's a fine cow. It breaks my heart to have to say so, though. Well, Mr. Warren, Jared Tucker said that good things in life never come cheap, so I guess you've sold your cow. Hold on a moment, son. No, you don't, Matthew. You made a bargain, stick by it. You said you'd stick by the price I made. Don't you cheat these here young people? Now, Mr. Miss Norton here, in this piece of paper I've read the price I hold this majesty cow at and that price I'll take, not a cent less. $325. Mr. Warren, this cow is really worth more than that one. That's what I figure she's worth to me and that's what I'll sell her to you for. Once I set a figure in my mind, I don't ever ship. I'm a sought man that way. Jared can tell you. Who sweetens the bargain? Thank you, then. I'll sweeten it. Your man Fritz stopped by on his way into town this morning, Mr. Norton. He liked the cow and he liked the price. And seeing as she won't be fresh for a while and your barn's not quite finished, I'll keep her here for a week or two. That'll be the sweetening. Here, Matthew Warren, what was all this confounded business of getting me to set a price on this here, towel, when you already fixed the price into your own mind? If you'd been a fine this cow, Jared, you'd have paid $125 more than the Norton's.  You know, when it really comes to trading, I could take your high thou faggot wouldn't even know it. Well, I'll be. You'll be gall-danged along with me. Well, I guess you and I are really babes in the woods when it comes to Yankee trading. When you're complaining about high prices, give a moment's thought to those things that haven't gone up. There's Coca-Cola, for instance. Coke was a nickel in 1886 and it's a nickel today. Moreover, its quality has never buried in all those years. Today, as always, delicious ice-cold Coca-Cola can be relied upon to bring you the pause that refreshes. Well, howdy, Bob. Howdy, Mr. Tucker. Well, son, you just seen a better man get the worst of it.  Oh, long way from dead I am. Warn better watch yourself. Next time we trade, there'll be no host bard and I'll nail him to the barn door. But the youngins bought their selves a good, good cow at a fair, fair price. I hear David's brother and his wife are coming up here tomorrow. Oh, that, uh, that Hartley feller trades down in Wall Street. Never could see what fun a man gets down there. Now in trading cows, you really got something there. Well, the notons have got their cow and tomorrow they're going to have family and family-in-law. Oh, families, families. Families can be pesky and in-laws can be, can be more than pesky. Well, they don't have to be, Jared. Oh, mind you listening, son. I said they can be. Well, so long I've got to be going. So long, Jared. As I was about to say, every day Monday through Friday, Claudia comes to you transcribed with the best wishes of your friendly neighbor who bottles Coca-Cola. So listen again tomorrow at the same time. And now this is Joe King saying, au revoir.  When you think of refreshment, think of Coca-Cola. For Coca-Cola makes any pause the pause that represses. And ice-cold Coca-Cola is everywhere. This broadcast of Claudia was supervised and directed by William Brown Maloney. And now here's a word from your friendly neighbor who bottles Coca-Cola.


Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to the NBA 2K Olympics. Yeah! Today we're going to test these contestants, including myself, on their ability to complete some of the tasks integral to being a great NBA 2K player. First up, we got the chair throw. We're here at a field, you get two attempts. Whoever can throw the chair though. For this, is the winner. All right, I bought what you got, man. What's the form? First, you slam the controller.

Last up, we got Phantom with the cannon. Hold on. Who's my chair?  We got Phantom in first place after round number one. Now round number two. You know what I mean? Did you have the form you wanted last time? No, but I thought I could. You know what it is? Because I did legs yesterday. I worked on my legs. Okay. One million VC if you can pass, Peter. Ah!  This Phantom, how do you do it? You gotta play 2K. Okay. That's the problem. See, he has practice breaking equipment. And breaking faces, you heard? Oh. I definitely can beat that again. You know what I'm saying?  Peter, you got bonus points. All right, bet. What? But that's live play. That's live play. Come here. Come here. What was that? Oh, look at that. He used all his energy in Davis' video yesterday. That's probably what it was. They count me out. Peter's a dead man. He beat me the first time. I beat him the second time. We were both the furthest. All in all. Let me get some 2K dances. Let me get some 2K intros. I don't even know. 15 yards? Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Ready? Set. Some of them cheated. Some of them definitely cheated. Some of them definitely cheated. Oh, Peter. You kidding me, though? He's kidding. They all cheated. Yeah. Literally like three of them ran the line. All right.

So this is what we're gonna do. You probably lagged out of millions of games in NBA 2K. Do you remember what the screen looks like? Well, you have all the tools to help make that screen. And the person who gets it most accurately wins a challenge. We got a fan behind the computer up first. So far, he's doing pretty good. Look at the examples as they watch, though. Exactly. So it's an advantage whoever goes last. Definitely last. Peter.  Invited you to his party.  I just thought he was... You see the work of art right here, you know what I'm saying? Are you done? Yeah, that's done. I don't know what they're really saying. Listen, stop eating all that food right there. Just stop, all right? We care about you. We're your friends. Don't do this to yourself. Don't lose yourself. Man, Davis, dude. Look what happened to Ava. That you wanted to have. Oh my God. Come on, shoot. I'm a true fan of Ava. I think Phantom would beat this one. Do you see the size of that, bro? That's a real replacement. Bro, look at my hand. This is my hand, y'all. This is just the bottom of it. Yo, at this point in the video, show this picture where Phantom's shoulder looks bigger than his body. Thank you. All right, but that's an old picture. That's November. Yo, it's July now, baby. You know the vibes. Look how we looking. You know what I'm saying? More slamming. Yeah. How do you know how to do that, man?  I'm a bodybuilder. You wanna listen? I got you, I got you. Like, when I hop on a... What's it called? When you hop on and it tells you your weight. Scale? The scale. They say that I was obese, but I'm not obese. There's no way I'm gonna be obese. Bro, it's much more like... You look all wrong, Phantom. What? Well, you'll get it next time. You have been graded out because you play handsome defense. What a guy, bro. Listen. I sent an invite out. Yeah, you joined my party. You knew it was about to happen. Yeah, I'm sorry. He's rapping about doing a federal offensive. I'm winning. Clearly. I played the most in this room. Davis never played none of his games. Phantom didn't create a shocker and stretch until two weeks ago. I definitely got more games than everybody else. I pot, I pot, I pot. You have 7 Ws, bro. And then 700 Ls, bro. You joined my party. It's free dubs. I'm winning. Clearly. All right, ladies and gentlemen, this is event number three. This one is a classic. Each contestant gets a controller, and they have to spam as fast as they can. It's a game of endurance. All right, ladies and gentlemen, first one of two wins, wins the challenge. I pot has been murdering it. If he wins this challenge, he wins the game. Let's get it going. Hey! Hey! Put you off line, nope. Here's event number three. This one is a classic, ladies and gentlemen, a test of endurance spamming your square button. Let's get straight in. Two wins! When I was a kid, I used to play Star Fox Adventures.

Congratulations on the win, man. Thank you, dude. You didn't punish for cheating, bro. I didn't cheat. I was just strategizing. It's on camera. Hey, man. He just told us. That is a disqualification for something. All right, ladies and gentlemen, this is my favorite kind of event, all right? Man, and this one's your specialty, my guy. Event number four. This one's for all the marbles. Controller throw. I wish I could participate. Yeah, you are. You will. You're going to be the judge. I'm not going to lie. Davis is the underrated controller throw. You guys don't know this. He regularly throws controllers by his lonesome. He doesn't even upload it. He just plays my career and whips controllers at his setup. We got to go downstairs for this one. We're going to grab a whole lot of controllers that we don't like and brands we don't support. Whoever can throw the controller, you have one shot and do the most amount of damage, win. Now, I feel bad for Davis. He didn't get a chance to participate in these events, but I know how prolific he is as a controller thrower. So, Davis, you'll get my turn. Who wants to go first? Me. Okay. Damn. All right, ladies and gentlemen, we're here for the final event. It's all about form. It's not about distance, all right? Come on. Considerable damage is done. Even the casing is open. The whole thing is pretty much tore apart. Triggers are gone. Boom. He did a pretty good job. He's good.  Black spot? All right. Two, one. Yo. Let me get it. Yo, that's not how you do it. You're not keeping it. Break it. Look at the controller. You're going to break it by next week anyway. He's not keeping it. He's not keeping it. I know you connected, and it's to me, but I have to highlight you. You feel me? Yo. Yo. Okay. So, the casing came off.  The options button, share button, start button, the rotors here. That controller is detachable. That controller is detachable. It is. You can put all that back together. Bro, look at this. Bro, there's nothing on it. Look, it still works. Look at that. It does not. Oh, my God. You can see the motherboard of the controller. The right trigger is off. This one's broken. It doesn't even go back to the center no more. Triggers are off. The casing is done for. That serious damage right there, shoot. I can tell you play my career. I'm the judge. So far, Shoot is in first place. So, iPod, if you get this right, you win the challenge. Already? It's a new window. But like, is that where it'll be funny? It's still connected. It's still connected. That's good. iPod didn't win. Did you see his toss? I didn't win. No, no, no. What is that supposed to do? You did it three times. Get out of here. No. Look at that. We don't care about this. This is one try. That's the rule.  Shoot you win. Hi, ladies and gentlemen.

So, my soapbox has always been about inbound marketing. As someone in the meetings and events industry, it just made sense for me to attract people into my world versus the hard, cold-calling, pushing-selling tactics of other industries. Why do I think that inbound marketing and hospitality go together like peanut butter and jam? I'm sharing that today as well as some platforms you can use as a hospitality professional to amplify your message. Stick around. Fun, it's Leanne. And when I first started in sales, it didn't take me long to realize that the hard sell and the cold-calling tactics used in other industries, well, it just wasn't going to work for me in how I wanted to grow my business. I liked giving to my clients, I liked creating resources, and I liked researching. So when I stumbled on the term inbound marketing several years ago, I knew that it was the strategy for me to use in growing my own business. So why do I think it's such a good fit for hospitality? Well, let's look into that. But first, let's look at a few definitions. Inbound marketing, it's defined as creating valuable experiences that have a positive impact on people and your business using relevant and helpful content to attract them to your website or blog. It can be done through a number of social media platforms, and many inbound marketers use multiple platforms to push their value-based content out to prospects. Hospitality is defined as the reception and entertainment of guests, visitors, or strangers, and cares for the whole universe through the ties to humanity. Wow, those are powerful words. It is the way people treat others that is the service of welcoming guests. Now that you've seen these two definitions, these two philosophies, do you see how they align with one another? It makes sense that an inbound marketing strategy would work in the hospitality industry. So knowing that, what platforms are there for us to use to amplify our messages through inbound marketing, and how do you decide which one is the best for you? The first platform for most organizations is your business's website. Instead of your own branding efforts, ensuring that your business website is welcoming guests, visitors, and strangers through creating valuable experiences, this should be top of mind. The second most common strategy in platform is email. Email marketing is still very much alive and well, and when done in the spirit of inbound marketing and giving back to your clients, providing value in the context of your email, your open and email retention rates may go up. The third platform is webinars, and boy did we ever see these come on strong in 2020. By providing content and entertainment through webinars, you deepen the relationship with your consumers, and you stay top of mind when the time comes for business to be done. Now let's take a look at some of the social media platforms. The one that comes top of mind if you are in a B2B industry is LinkedIn. LinkedIn is the business social media platform, and it's a logical fit for hospitality professionals who are in the B2B environment. There are a number of things that you can do on this platform, including optimizing your profile so that people are drawn to you when they land on it, posting articles and posts, extending invitations to potential clients, and commenting on other people's content. These are all great ways to start an inbound marketing machine on LinkedIn. Another social media platform that's really great for B2B but also B2C is of course Facebook. It's proven to be a highly effective platform for hospitality. And if you want to be heard, Facebook has a larger audience for you to tap into. You can extend your content to people you don't know through Facebook ads, but you can also grow your presence organically, either through your own personal page or a Facebook business page. Another highly effective platform for hospitality is Instagram, especially in hospitality where images and video are key for bringing in people. It's where a ton of your potential clients are hanging out, and they're looking for you to wow them with pictures that engage and invite them into your story. You can use your own pictures, or you can lean on your organization's photos to post on your Instagram. One of the most overlooked platforms for hospitality, but incredibly effective, is Pinterest. Pinterest works more like a search engine than anything else, and it's the fastest growing search engine in the social media space. It's that problem solver bulletin board next to YouTube and Google, but it's the graphics and the easy to pin method of cataloging content that makes it so popular. And in hospitality, when tips and tricks are key for bringing in people through an inbound marketing strategy, Pinterest is a great way to do it. Taking your experience one step further is to do some video to showcase your product or service. YouTube and video is still king for attracting people through an inbound marketing strategy. Ensure that you're building consistent content for your guests and customers, and your content will continue to rise up the charts. And finally, good old Twitter, 280 characters to communicate a message and build an audience. Twitter is best done when you cross promote through some of the other platforms, but still seen as an incredible inbound marketing tool as you're advertising the content that you're giving to your customers. Deciding on which platforms to use for your inbound marketing strategy will depend on your customers and clients. Where are they hanging out and how do they best consume their content? Remember, the key to creating content and expanding to platforms has to do with your bandwidth. So ensure you're staying consistent on one platform before deciding to add an additional platform.

So, here I am getting ready. I have opened up my iPad here and I am opening up my planner. So I pretty much use GoodNotes 5, so that's the current one for any of my note taking. So I'm taking a myofunctional therapy course and as you notice, I was showing on my other webcam there the notes close up and that will be shown a little bit in a second here. I'm using a black background, so that's actually something new for me. I normally just use a white background like normal white paper, but I was looking for some study note inspiration on Pinterest and everybody uses black. I mean not everybody but a lot of people. Apparently it's easier on the eyes and now that I work from home a lot of the time and now that I'm taking my myofunctional therapy course online, I'm on the computer, I'm on my iPad a lot, so I was kind of looking into using the dark notes and I quite like it. I can still make my study notes very aesthetically pleasing, which is a lot of fun. It just makes studying more fun and here I'm actually adding some elements, which I will show you guys in a little bit, some sticky notes. So it's kind of like doing it on real paper. But if you had sticky notes and digital is just a lot more fun. Oh, and now I'm showing you guys on white paper. So I was preparing some study notes for my students. So I teach a dental hygiene and dental assistant course. I teach them how to pass the board exam. So that was just showing some white notes that I did for them. And now I'm just kind of playing around with my webcam, moving things around. I was about to take another video. This is a true behind the scenes video. This is what I do from different camera angles, depending what I'm doing, lots of moving around for sure. And now you'll see me take up my iPad. It kind of looks like I'm spitting on my keyboard, but I'm not. I was just cleaning it. Now I'm trying to think, what was I doing there? I don't remember, but I do tend to use my computer, my iPad, my cell phone, my laptop, sometimes all at the same time. It looks like I'm opening up my video editing software on my computer right now. I tend to multitask, which I really shouldn't do that, because then I forget what I'm doing with the other things and then something gets left behind. So I'm a huge multitasker. And yeah, that's what I'm doing now. I opened up my video editing app. I put on my UV blocking or blue-gray blocking glasses there. That's what you call them. OK, perfect. So it looks like I decided to show you guys. I probably forgot I was filming, believe it or not. When I do these behind the scenes videos, I forget sometimes that I have the webcam on or I forget to turn the webcam on. So here I'm doing all of these things, trying to show you guys. And then I forget to turn it on. And then yeah, but that's what's happening here. I just kind of wanted to zoom in on one of my video editing. And now I totally switched it up. I'm going to my good notes. So what you guys saw me doing earlier from the one angle, I had that webcam above my head. If you remember, this is what this is just from a different angle. So showing you guys my myofunctional therapy notes. I'm currently taking the course, as I had mentioned, I'm in module one. And this is me summarizing. I want to say about an hour and a half of lecture into I think it's five pages, maybe five or six pages of notes. But look at that. It just looks easier to study from. And it was a lot of fun taking the notes. In a second, I'm going to show you guys how I did it. So for some reason, I kept the text as black. I probably thought that I was going to use the white paper. But with Good Notes 5, you can easily change the color. You can add the highlighters. You can take away the highlighters. It does take practice for sure. I love YouTube, so I looked at a lot of YouTube videos on how to use Good Notes 5. And that really helped me. This is the sticky notes that I was talking about earlier. So you can add elements. Hello. And you can add sticky notes. And then I'm about to show you on the white paper that I mentioned earlier when I make study notes for my students in the board exam prep academy course. And then this is showing you actually the planner that I have for my students with a calendar that I made for them. And I'm going right into the sticker elements. So I do have a planner for dental hygiene and dental assisting students. And these are just me and putting the stickers for them. A video that I probably did. So a true behind the scenes. I hope you guys liked this. Any questions, just let me know.


Assalamu alaikum everyone thank you for coming out even with the air out tonight so just reminding everyone to stay safe and today with me are these amazing women that I hope to grow up to be so thank you so much for being here with us tonight. Before I started out talking about today's election I kind of wanted to start start talking about a couple years ago when we all felt hopeless and I wanted to talk about it through a young Muslim's perspective as there are many young Muslims out in the crowd today personally my own story I remember this was a couple years ago I mean we all remember this the San Bernardino attacks so when a San Bernardino attacks happened I was a sophomore in high school and I remember seeing all the development on news coming on my phone and I was sitting in my English class and when the shooting happened I remember my stomach dropping and I was praying to God I was praying to Allah saying you know please please don't let me it's someone who's Muslim someone who or claims to be Muslim I was praying I was praying and then when when the the shooter's identity came out I just broke down crying and around that same time I know most of you are familiar with the Rahmah Foundation here which is a great program for girls I was a part of the Halaka program as well and my the girls in my Halaka group started messaging on their group chat saying I'm scared to I'm scared to walk home I'm scared I'm scared to go outside I don't know what to do and that's that's where in the first time in my life I mean we've all experienced this as Muslim-Americans where we've all felt oppressed and felt scared to go out but that for me was the first time that I felt like someone was going to go out and attack me for being Muslim and I walked out of my high school crying unable to look at anyone in the eye and when the election happened I also cried this there was this constant sense of hopelessness this even even when we see small wins I still felt hopeless and well fast forward on a couple of years and now we have all these historic women winning these elections and I feel I feel optimistic and I to be honest I didn't see this coming but at the same time in my heart I knew something was going to change so I'm really glad that we had this amazing election and most of all what I'm glad is seeing women stand up for themselves seeing minority women for the first time stand up and say I'm not taking any of this I'm going to win without any support and that's what I applaud Sylvia and Aisha just for doing doing all this without any support without any backing so to start off tonight I have one question for you guys kind of like going off my story I guess when did you realize that you wanted to run what like what moment in your life say you know I have to do this good evening and thank you for having me and you know thank you for sharing your story because I know it's not easy to share a personal story and your personal feelings so thank you um you know honestly I have always historically been involved in community work um you might my parents have always even at your ages right um I was told that this is part of our culture and I'm a very proud afghan-american um one of the things is that you you help where you can doesn't matter where you come from you always always help where you can whether you know I remember Hurricane Katrina happened um and I just wanted to help and I wasn't exactly sure what I could do um and when you see people without shelter in the streets you know you you try to do the most you can for them um so being being very much involved in that side we we specifically have ingrained both my sister and I uh to work in the community so I ended up working for volunteering a lot and it's very very important to volunteer you are exposed to so much that you could be doing um both career-wise and so forth um and eventually getting more involved in certain nonprofits I cared about um you know getting more involved in community as I mentioned and eventually learning that all the community work that you do is based on a policy so for example I worked with a lot of women in uh shelters um because of domestic violence and you realize what are the policies to help these women find housing what are the policies to protect these women to make sure that their children have a roof over their head to make sure that they they know their rights as a human being um these were certain policies that that I was concerned about and I realized that it's policy makers that we need to inform so for example when we um after 9 11 even happened um and being an afghan american one of the biggest things is that whatever they were depicting on television is not my community it's not how I was raised it's not how it's a small fragment of what they glorify on television and being more involved with policy makers your local congress members your local city council your local um different community leaders if you will you realize that it's your job 100 it is your job to inform these policy makers about you and your community your needs so when somebody says something completely incorrect about the community whether it's the afghan community whether it's the muslim community whether being a woman uh whether being a millennial you correct them and you say I'm so sorry I think you're misinformed this is the reality of my community this is the needs of my community and I ended up doing that more and more and more uh and representing more communities and eventually I said you know I think that it's time for us to become policy makers and really talk about some of the issues affecting the local city of hayward now um I think that president donald trump plays a big part of that because of the the hateful rhetoric that he spews very openly and um you know I think that I had enough is enough um you know that's not in my community and specifically I was told by electives in this bay area one of the most liberal areas to think of not to say you are muslim not to say you are afghan and my last name is wahab my first name is aisha okay and they said that it's a it's a very religious name you know she must be a wahabiist right um and the thing is that they don't even understand what that means um you know they they talked about do you want to live by sharia law if you are elected and some of the emails that we received were very shocking they and some people even posted on our facebook page a vote for aisha is a vote for sharia law and female general mutilation those were some of the things we battled and the reality is we never stopped talking about the fact that this is not what I believe in I am an american just as much as you born and raised and I want to do good for my entire community so that that is really kind of what you know some of the things that we went through and why we decided to be honest because we feel that we have an opinion that really matters so our voice matters that was really powerful aisha and I thank you for sharing that and thank you everybody for coming tonight um my story is a little bit different as to why I decided to run so I'm a first generation immigrant I did not grow up here I grew up in Pakistan but I grew up in a family which was very very involved in public service I grew up watching my father very much involved and then I moved you know in in my late teens early 20s I moved to the US so had a very typical life but married I went to college had my kids started a job kind of you know life continued and then I got I met actually I met congressman Eric Swalwell when he was first running and I decided to volunteer for his campaign and when I volunteered for his campaign what I felt was a sense of belonging again which which I had been missing for me for a long time and and I realized that I lived here long enough where it was very important for me to get involved in my community to serve my community and I just you know I was working in technology I had you know really no plans of running for office but I'm like yeah someday I'll get involved with my community I'd always been I'd always served on boats I'd always been the PTA mom I'd always volunteered at events always helped with fundraisers breast cancer walks all those things but I really never had thought about running and then I just started talking about it and before I knew it one thing led to another and I started getting more and more involved in the community and the more I started getting involved in the community and this was right around the time when I moved to San Ramon and it was about half the city it is so what you see San Ramon 10 years later today it's a very diverse community so it wasn't like that and slowly I started you know kind of seeing a migration of people that look that were more diverse in San Ramon and yet when I saw the city council it in nowhere represented anybody that lived in San Ramon and I as I got more involved in you know serving on city committees got involved in leadership and things like that in San Ramon what I realized was that it was just made of a group of a hundred or so people that were plugged in that were bringing their own people every time they you know they wanted somebody to be you know in office or our commissions and our committees and the entire city was kind of everybody else who was moving to the city with silo didn't know what was going on and then when I talked started talking about running I'm like I would like to serve on the council because I think this community needs representation of people who somehow look like them as well and first generation immigrants and like I said I belong and I am as much of an American as anybody else who's lived here three generations four generations or ten generations and I started getting a pushback saying it's not your turn right now you have to wait we're going to tell you when you should run for council and that did not sit well with me and I'm like so I have to seek permission now to run for council and I started talking to you know something which is common with both myself and I shall we went through this program called Emerge California which really empowers women to run for office and I remember one of the first things they say you're going to be told by you know it's not your turn yet and you don't listen to that so I ran in 2016 you know I decided I decided and my family decides when it's my turn I ran in 2016 I got a lot of pushback from the establishment they made sure that they told everybody to vote against me they actually set up somebody it was going to be two men and myself and then they set up somebody last minute to run against me a woman who just to kind of take away the votes so they did pretty much everything to make sure I didn't win that election and I lost that election but I won quite a significant number of votes and I said I'm not going to sit back and rest it was also the same around the same time that you know it was 2016 it was a sad day for a lot of us we were just I was more in shock of what had happened to a country than what you know happened in my election and after 2016 things kind of turned around and changed and what I saw between 2016 and 2018 there were Muslims became active Muslims woke up women woke up there were so many grassroots groups that decided enough is enough and this entire movement started where we said we're not going to sit back we're not going to you know be a quiet voice on in there we're going to go and do something and take on and I think Trump was a blessing in disguise for a lot of a lot of people who did not care before who did not engage before and this election turned out to be tremendously different than 2016 because we saw almost a 50% voter turnout in San Ramon where historically you've only had 20% people come and vote in an off year election so for me even in this election since I didn't listen the first time around there was a lot of opposition from the establishment there was opposition from the person who's you know he was supporting somebody else and I really went to the voters and I went to the people and I canvassed and worked hard and people believed in it and the best thing you know so I like to quote my biggest supporter was a former mayor you know as typical as you can get a white haired tall white guy who said I would like to see a Muslim Pakistani in office because he he came to the mosque he was respected so much and that to me was a win when somebody like that can say I would like to see a Muslim Pakistani and that's not my only identity but it is a source of pride for me that I got that kind of support from the community and they saw Muslims as partners not as somebody that Trump was making them out to be thank you so much for sharing that another question that I have for you guys is I know you during during your campaign you've talked about all the I'm sure you've talked about all the things that you hope to do and how you hope to represent this community but for tonight's sake I would like you guys to kind of like a talk about that again and now that you see yourself in that place how how you feel after that win and also what you hope to do in the next couple of years so my campaign had a very cool platform something that most people don't typically talk about and attack and people I just want to say that our campaign team consisted of mostly women very young people no consultants no expert this was just literally us sitting at a table and saying what does the community need so my campaign managers Nargis Izata who's sitting right here put up your hand right she is a mental health therapist she has no background in politics nothing and many people on our team were first time volunteers first time you know involved in a campaign or just motivated because of the the hateful rhetoric out there and the thing that we talked about the most in the city of Hayward is housing we know that if you have a roof over your head you can focus on your family you can focus on your business you can focus on your education and you can focus on your future but we know that housing has become more and more unattainable for many many people specifically in Hayward when we talked about housing it was something that people said stay away from it's very very difficult to talk about housing a lot of people feel differently about housing and we had specific goals that we wanted to push through now being now an elected individual it's different on on this side of things what you're really able to do what you're able to push forward and you are one vote of many others you have to get the rest of the city council members to agree with you to definitely make sure things pass now I just had coffee with one of my opponents who is also my colleague Sarah Laminen who's sitting in the back and Sarah and I actually discussed some of the the goals that you know we want to work together on so one of the things is definitely in campaign mode you you have to basically win to get anything done and now that we've won now the goal is how can we work together it's a very it's a politics is filled with a lot of awkward moments okay just being able to talk to each other and say we're gonna move past this particular chapter of our lives right because we don't know who's gonna win right at the time so you really just try to avoid people and you know try to stay focused now I believe that we can definitely make a significant impact in Hayward regarding housing and people like Sarah who's on the council as well as myself we will definitely bring that issue up to the forefront and make it a priority a priority in my sense being part of our campaign was making housing affordable to all at all income levels people deserve a roof over their head regardless of how small it is they deserve a roof that's a human right in my opinion and that was something that we truly truly believe in it's something that we will definitely work hard for and I do believe we can make it happen so that's my number one issue that we talked about so San Ramon I think one of the most important things for me and San Ramon and coming from a background in technology is that how are we helping people are giving them back the three hours that they spend on the road right now and how are we working in partnership with larger Bay Area with the larger Bay Area where people who live in San Ramon who live in the Tri Valley and commute all the way to Palo Alto or San Mateo or San Francisco I've lived that pain I've done that and I know how much it affects my quality of life and how much I was not even able to give back to my community let alone my children so for us for the larger Bay Area that's the problem I see is something we really need to start solving by building partnerships by talking to other businesses and trying to see how do we bring technology jobs to the Tri Valley how do we partner with businesses and say like people work from home or work from remote locations satellite offices in the Tri Valley because that is going to solve the larger issue one the quality of life like getting those three hours there is no substitute for getting those three hours back in your life and being with your family and kids and being able to spend that you'll build community that is going to give get people more involved in your city and that's going to build better family rights as well plus what we're going to also without what that's going to help with is easing traffic on 680 both going up and down the corridor whether you go north or south so for me solving that traffic problem and using technology as a way to solve those problems would be very very important I am very invested in a smart city initiative it is a long-term initiative it is something that's going to take five to ten years to really implement but for me that is that is an important one the other important thing for me is San Ramon has been the city council has been a very close council people don't know what's going on people have been frustrated that they have no way to communicate with the citizens people have been frustrated that you know decisions get made on some council so opening up that communication and finding ways to go and engage with the community is a really important issue for me again that how do how am I present in the community and I'm getting feedback and I am not born in yet but every single day I've been getting emails from people and I've been replying to them and I've I've been talking to the city manager so I already see that communication channel has opened up which wasn't there with with the other city council members thank you so much for sharing housing and traveling traveling is very I think I think there is something that hit home for a lot of us I guess because even in pleasant to live a more Dublin housing is very difficult to find that's something that's affordable for a lot of our residents here and commuting we all see all the residents here we all see that and my next question would be I think in the past couple of years we've seen that it's really hard we've faced as a community we face a lot of difficulty in building bridges I mean we have many successes of course to interfaith um through events like this today um but in order to have such a story wins like yours you must have had a lot of support back when you left and what my question is that how did how were you able to build those bridges in this first place because for a lot of us it seems kind of like you know it seems hard um so we like to ask for your tips and how you were able to combat that you know I just want to have very clearly state that we are no different from anybody that sits next to us there is literally no difference you know I think because we are in a place of worship that I can easily say that um any religious teachings teaches you that God has made us all equal we know that um with that being said I I just want to say that we have a lot of assumptions about people you know we and it's every single person has a bias against something whether you have an accent whether you have a different skin complexion whether you have a funny name you know we like to say that we're different in this sense but deep down for the most part we have the same core desires we want to raise our families in a safe place we want to pursue education we want a future we want grandchildren we want all the same things we want a roof over our heads those are the things that we need to focus on as to what makes us the same and um you know I will say that we we've had historic wins for specifically the Muslim community um I can 100% say that I am the first Afghan American ever elected to the United States public office including another young woman named Safia Wazir who uh won in New Hampshire and these are historic wins for my personal community now I didn't think that it was a big deal early on you know I said okay good we have a win but as I've met more and more older folks from my community that have said to me that you've literally cracked the ceiling and you have allowed us to hold our head high after 40 years of being in this particular country we've had a win and I'm very very proud to say that I was a part of that but I also want to say that our team was made up of a lot of different ethnicities we had volunteers that were white we had volunteers that were black we had volunteers that were um um Hispanic as well as you know of different religious backgrounds and things like that none of that matters in America when you really talk about the issues and community as a whole there is no other country in the world that a young Afghan girl can be raised and mind you I grew up in foster care I grew up in a very different background than most people I should be seen as very much as less than but in this country every single one of us has a voice that's considered equal as long as we use our voice so I will say that we've had other individuals within the Muslim community that um do wear the hijab that ran for office and did not win and again we are in one of the most liberal areas in the United States and I truly believe that some of those things were because of how they're perceived there's still a lot of prejudice out there and my goal is definitely to talk about it talk about it in a very bold way you know I'm not going to shy away from the fact that um we come from a different ethnicity we speak a different language our parents have an accent there's nothing to be ashamed of be proud of who you are and as long as you can say yeah so I'm still going to do it that is kind of the big thing that you need to do to even start to build those bridges once you accept yourself other people are forced to accept you that is one of the biggest things that I do want to share for me building bridges is opening up your house and stepping up and stepping out of your comfort zone and making that first move to embrace people for me when I talk San Ramon is a very very diverse community we have 135 languages that are just spoken at our high school so if you think of it we're the entire united nations in a small in a small city and we have so many different cultures and how do we celebrate those cultures and how do we embrace them but how does somebody else know who we are so for me the most important thing is when I'm celebrating something when I'm celebrating eat I go and give a packet of chocolates to every single neighbor who lives in my neighborhood and when I talk to the mosque in San Ramon that's what I tell them I'm like when we are celebrating something let's make sure that all of our neighbors know that we're celebrating and celebrate with them just like that when it's their holiday let's celebrate with them and let's celebrate other people's cultures and embrace that because that's what really breaks the barriers that's what really opens up people and people embrace you because you're celebrating their culture and they're celebrating yours have coffee with with them ask your colleagues ask somebody if you feel somebody's hesitant somebody's curious sit down with them talk to them let them know what's important because in the end it's all about people's relationships people once they build that relationships they don't see you as white black brown yellow muslim hindu christian or any of that I once got a call during the election somebody called me and said I just want to know whether you are a hindu muslim or a christian and I said to him I'm like when you need that powerful fix is that going to ask you for your religion and he laughed about it and he's like okay you've earned my vote because that's exactly what I wanted you to say that you care about me as a citizen of San Ramon and it's not going to matter to me and it's not going to matter to me anymore what religion you are so we really have to talk about and understand what's important to everybody we have the we have all the common issues we know all the common things that matter to us so engage with you know we need to engage with each other at a human level and that's when you really break the boundaries so thank you for all your insight and I feel like it's very important that that we have this today and I'm really glad that you guys were able to come out today and talk to the residents and I hope that after that we all get to talk about how we can all support you and how we can work with you to make our make sure that our voices are heard and thank you again for all these amazing insurgents for all the youth that are out there I know that we're all feeling really inspired so inshallah in the next like couple of years we'll be all running we'll be following your footsteps inshallah and today so we have to celebrate your wins as a whole community we have some amazing cakes that we bought and we would like all of all of us to come together celebrate


ran a little faster than the other kids, even at that age. He had a little stronger arm than the other kids. He was real unassuming, he was real quiet. He had leadership. It was a great kid to be around, always. And he had a focus from a very early age. There's a lot of stories out there, obviously, about the contracts he had to make with mom and dad to be able to do things. And he'd be there after practice. He'd be the one that would come up and say, practice is almost over. Can I stay afterwards and take ground balls? He had a focus that most people just don't have. Derek was a skinny guy, skinny legs, skinny arms. And he always came out the next day, no matter what kind of day he had at the plate, whether it was a good day or a bad day, he came out the next day. He was in the batting cage waiting, and he always had a smile on his face. It seemed like his confidence was just unshakable at the time. I remember a young kid that had an infectious personality. Young players gravitated to him. Older guys gravitated to him. So there was a lot there. People were always interested in what he had to say. He had a gold NY necklace around his neck. And if you ask him what that was for, he said, because I want to be the Yankee shortstop. Now, you can interpret that as this is a really brash cocky kid. Or you could interpret it as he's got focus. And he had that focus from a very early age. And it's never changed. Jeter's reputation as a focused and talented player continued to spread. After being drafted in the first round by the Yankees in 1992, his skills, his work ethic, and his desire pushed him toward the major leagues. Yes, there were obstacles along Jeter's journey, but he overcame them. I'd heard some things about him. And I knew he was, and I went down to Greensboro, and I saw him play down there. But I didn't know much about him before that. He could tell he was a good thinker. And he did listen, though. I knew he was very coachable. I think he showed maturity beyond his years. And he just had that confident demeanor, even though he went through phases where he struggled offensively and defensively. And he showed great poise and maturity. And that's one of the things that really stood out to all of us. You know, I told Posada one day that he got a problem and turned over plays. And I don't know how he going to react, how he going to take it. So Posada, big mistake, told Jeter. And every day for almost two weeks, we got to be on the field almost every single day and turned over plays. And that's explained to him how to do it. And he loves that. He would come out in early January before most anybody else would come out. And he understood the value of hard work. And he wasn't going to let anybody else out working. Zimmer and I used to talk about it. We never saw anybody that could charge a bouncing ball. It didn't matter which hop he got on. He never dropped the ball. He catches almost every one. It's a shock when he charges the ball and doesn't catch the baseball.


is TFNN. The Tiger Financial News Network. TFN News Update. Hi everyone, Basel Chapman here on this Tuesday, the 26th of July after Tommy Jr. made the great program, Market Kickoff at 9 o'clock. We're coming in here at the 10 o'clock Tiger Financial News Network, Market Update, down 136 at $31,857, considering what Walmart said yesterday, and our sharpie down it is so far. The day is young, we're not even half an hour into it, just over half an hour into the day, trading day that is. This is not too bad so far. What we're looking at is the Dow is down 132 points, is holding the trend line in the Chapman Wave inside track support area, and that makes the whole area of $31,700 key support today. We're looking at the S&P. S&P had a nice breakout, now it's pulled back a little bit from Friday's high. We're looking at 39, 36 down 30, it's a little bit more than the Dow at this particular point. Of course it also has Walmart in it, so it needs to hold between 39, 32 and 39, 25 as the key support for the next day or so, otherwise that 39.08 level becomes a target. Looking at the QQQ, now it's going to be fascinating, the QQQ is down 3.35, down 296.98. While we are looking at here, it has about two days, by Wednesday afternoon Thursday morning, it needs to be back about 303, 305, it's a 297 right now. We'll see what happens. You've got 293 as a really important support to hold. IWM Russell 2000 small caps made of peak seeds pulled back a little bit, it's actually holding pretty well. This is the interesting thing here. Gold is down 2 at 1717, it's not breaking down, it's not breaking up, it's just kind of stuck in this lower range. As the dollar is attempting some kind of a rally, it's up 56 ticks at 107. It's holding very well, but holding very well and going up with two different things, and I'll talk about that when we get back, because if you talk about recession, huge sector recessions since December, January, I'll think about that when we get back, the yield is up another 27, and it holds up earlier on, it is up 68 cents.


I'm Darren Marlar and this is your Daily Dose of Weird News. Former Olympic figure skater Christy Yamaguchi might want to rethink the wording of a congratulatory tweet she sent to fellow former Olympic figure skater and 1994 knee-clubbing victim Nancy Kerrigan, who is currently competing on Dancing with the Stars. Christy tweeted to Nancy the words, �Break a leg!� Pfft! Ouch! Poor word choices. The cover of Time magazine asks the question, �Is Truth Dead?� Well, of course it is. Ha! Fulgia! Highlight! U.S. states have a legal drinking limit of .08. Utah's governor said he will sign a bill that would make his state the first in the nation to lower the drunk driving limit to .05 percent. So if you plan on driving through Utah, I'd skip using the listerine mouthwash before the trip. Under legislation inspired by former Jersey Shore reality TV star Nicole Snooki-Polisi, no more than $10,000 of state money can go to pay speakers at New Jersey's public universities. This after Snooki was paid $36,000 back in 2011 to speak at Rutgers University. If you have Jersey Shore cast members giving speeches to the students, can you really call it higher education? Talk about totally weird. In El Sonizo, California, Catherine Sassine and her husband thought they were doing a good deed. They put a bike that they could no longer use out in their front yard with a sign reading �Free� next to it. While they went for a 45 minute walk, when they got back they found the bike gone, replaced by another bike and two duffel bags. And in the backyard, Catherine found a strange guy sitting on her futon. He told her that he was just waiting to make sure the bike she left out with the �Free� sign was in fact free. She got him to leave and then discovered her home had been broken into and items had been taken. Okay, the sign said �Free�. That was just the bike, people. Just the bike, not the entire property. But then you know the sign wasn't real specific, so... Twitter has suspended 636,000 accounts to tackle extremism. Ironically, that seems a bit extreme. Alaska Airlines is planning to retire the Virgin American name by the end of 2019. They fully expect by the year 2019 to no longer be able to find any virgins. If you'd like to go on a diving tour of the Titanic in a mini-sub, you'll be able to do that next year for a mere $105,000. Although if you're really looking for the thrill of experiencing a disaster, just spend a fraction of that money and invite all your relatives over for dinner next Thanksgiving. The U.S. Secret Service says a woman who tried to climb over the White House fence was found dangling from it by her shoelaces. Uniformed division officers saw the woman late Tuesday walking around the White House. Agents say she tried to climb over the fence adjacent to E Street when her shoelaces got entangled at the top of the fence and she was suspended inside the fence. After helping her down, officers promptly arrested the woman, 38-year-old Marcy Wall of Everett, Washington, and charged her with unlawful entry. At a hearing in D.C. Superior Court on Wednesday, Wall pleaded not guilty. Seriously, how do you plead not guilty to this? Well, Your Honor, I was just walking by, stumbled over a crack in the sidewalk, and I went soaring over the fence where my shoelaces got tangled. Pope Francis is telling young people to resist the fake reality of social media. I'm not sure who to believe, though, because I also received an email from a Nigerian Prince telling me to ignore the Pope. Willie Nelson continues to insist that he's not dead. We're still waiting for him to show proof of that fact, though. If you liked this video, please give it a thumbs up and be sure to subscribe if you want to see more!

Hey, this is Brett, and this 2017 Ford F-250 SuperCab Short Box XLT FX4 is stock number 13062Z. I'm here at Summit Automotive in Fond du Lac, Wisconsin, you're new and used heavy duty truck. Headquarters, this 2017 Ford F-250 has the 6.7 liter power stroke diesel engine. It's combined with the 6-speed automatic transmission with the optional tap shift. This truck has been fully safety and inspected by our service shop, it has a fresh oil and filter change, all the fluids have been checked and topped off per the state of Wisconsin inspection process and this truck is 100% ready to go. I'm going to go all the way around inside underneath, start it up and take a look under the hood in this video. Race red is the color, one of my favorite colors of red on the F-250 trucks. I shoot all my videos in 4K, so if you have HD capabilities on your computer tablet, smartphone, or television, I highly recommend turning them on right now because it is your best way to check out the quality, condition options, and cleanliness of the vehicle before seeing it in person. If you like the video on how I do things here at Summit Automotive, consider clicking the subscribe button on my YouTube channel and click the bell notifications, you'll get updates every time I do videos here at Summit Automotive. This one comes with the painted alloy rims and it has Goodyear Wrangler all-terrain adventure tires. These are LT275 70R18s and I would say they have probably about 50 to 60% of the tread left on them. Frame and underbody is an exceptionally nice clean condition. Front fender is in pretty nice shape. Does have the halogen headlamps, headlight lenses are nice and clear, factory fog lights, front bumper is absolutely perfect, no major dents or dings on there and the lower balance is in very nice shape as well. This one does have the 360 camera on it, you can see the camera right there, chrome trimmed grille. The hood is absolutely perfect, I didn't see any dents or dings on that and the passenger side front fender is in very nice condition as well. Passenger side rim, no scuffs or scrapes and as you go down this side of this 2017 Ford F-250, take note of how clean the body is, how reflective and mirror like that paint is. This has the FX4 off-road suspension package. I take these HD videos so if you are far away or even if you're close by and you just cannot make the trip down but you're still interested in purchasing the truck, you can still see the truck, hear the truck and have confidence in the vehicle that you're looking at before you even get here. So when you do get here, there's absolutely no surprises and you can make a smart and informed buying decision from wherever you're at and if this video helps you make that buying decision, definitely let your salesman know that you saw the video that it was helpful and that Brett sent you and if you liked the video once again, subscribe to the YouTube channel in the upper right hand part of the screen. Back rim is in excellent shape. Back tires, just as much tread as the front tires, maybe even a little bit more. Swanton does have, I believe that's air lift, rear airbag suspension. You can see just how clean that frame and underbody is. Very little to no corrosion and it has all the remaining factory exhaust. Lower rockers all look really good. Just come with them nice chrome stop bars that go from wheel to wheel, which makes it nice getting into the box. Coming around to the back of the vehicle, the rear bumper is in great shape. It does have the backup parking sensors, the full towing package of course with the receiver hitch, 4 pin and 7 pin wiring, the tailgate, absolutely perfect. Does come with a very nice, I believe it's a low pro, Truxedo tonneau cover, same tonneau I have on my truck. There are no rips or tears on this one, looks really good. This one does come with a B&W Patriot 18K fifth wheel, bed mat LED bed lighting and it does have 7 pin wiring back here for that fifth wheel hitch that looks like it's a sliding fifth wheel too, so that's really nice. And the bed's in really nice shape. One little ding on the passenger side. Wheel well there. Other than that, very, very nice. Tailgate shuts nice and solidly. Then going on the driver's side, just as clean as that passenger's side. Box is in nice shape. And for full disclosure, this back rim is in excellent condition as well. No scuffs or scrapes. Down the rest of this side of the truck, the doors look really good. Does have the driver's side door code entry. We do have the code for this truck and if you ever want to find out what your code is for your 17 to 22 Super Duty, in the upper right hand part of the screen I got a video showing you how to find your own personal door code on your truck. Seated mirrors, built in directional signals, 360 cameras right there. Inside the XLT package gives you the gray cloth interior. There are no rips, there are no tears on the seats. Power driver seat with Lamar factory floor mats, auto headlamps, tilt telescopic steering wheel, power windows, power locks, and power mirrors. The back seats are just as clean as front seats, no rips, no tears back here. Does have the latch child safety system for any child car seats you may have. Fixed glass rear window with the built-in rear defrost. These seats do fold up for extra storage and you can see that the carpeting is very nice and clean back there. These back door, these doors now open up pretty much all the way. And that back window does power roll down. They close nice and easily like so. We'll hop inside, check out the miles, the radio, and everything that this truck has to offer on the interior. Got the built-in Ford Tough animation right there. You can see that this one has 13,022 miles. I'm going to dim it down so you can see it a little bit better there. Instrument cluster is very nice and clean. Steering wheel has cruise controls and information center controls on the left, Bluetooth and audio controls on the right, six-speed automatic transmission with the optional tap shift. Those have the sync eight-inch radio. You get AM, FM, and Sirius XM radio capabilities on here. You can also do your 360 camera right here as well as your other cameras. You get a wide front camera as well. And this is also of course where your backup camera shows up. And you can zoom in on that to get to your receiver hitch. So you can hook up to your boat camper trailer the first time. Every time factory exhaust breaks, ability control, downhill assist control. You have all your different settings in here, including Android Auto and Apple CarPlay capabilities. It does have a CD player yet. Turn down four-wheel drive, factory brake controller, and your climate controls are right down there. Two USB ports. Here's my magic trick for the day. You get two cupholders. Now you have four cupholders. So it's a pretty sweet magic trick. 12-volt PowerPoint, 110-volt, 400-watt plug-in. Passenger side format and seat are in excellent condition as well. No rips or tears on there. And the headliner is in fantastic condition. This one does have six up-fitter switches, map lights. And we'll start it up and take a look under the hood. Starts right up. No check engine lights or anything like that, other than it's telling me my door and hood are ajar. And I would personally like to thank you for checking out the video today. And hopefully from this HD video, you've been able to verify the quality, condition options, and cleanliness of this truck all the way around inside and out. And under the hood, we have the 6.7-liter power stroke diesel engine. Engine bay is very clean, runs very smooth. Once again, this truck has been fully safe and inspected by our service shop. Has a fresh oil and filter change. All the fluids have been checked and topped off. And this truck is 100% ready to go.  That engine light works. And there's your emission sticker. Really nice truck. Really clean all the way around. And I would highly recommend this 2017 Ford F-250 SuperCab Short Box from a quality and condition standpoint.

The release notes are a good place for site admins to look before upgrading a site, but it's not always easy to spot issues that might affect you or your site users, thinking of things like the functionalities changed or those UI changes, or even if there's a new feature which you need to enable. For example, in the last release, we have people posting on Moodle.org saying they couldn't figure out how to indent items on the course page because it needed enabling first. So I've been going through the 394 issues fixed in 4.3 and making sure that all issues are identified with the upgrade notes label or the UI change. Thanks a lot for everyone who's helped with this labeling. If you can think of an issue you've worked on that's of interest to sites upgrading, you can still add the label now. It's not too late. Anyway, then I added these big items to the upgrading docs in the section issues that may affect you when upgrading to 4.3. There's also links to the full lists of labelled issues for admins to browse through because particularly UI change labelled issues are not necessarily mentioned in the release notes. Anyway, if you take a look at this docs page and notice anything missing or something which can be improved, as for all pages in the docs, remember it's a wiki and you're welcome to log in and edit and improve the pages. That's it from me. Thanks.


Micro-organisms interact with one another in diverse communities which are shaped by inter-specific interactions. While these interactions between individuals are usually additive, when multiple species each have a negative effect on a focal species, their combined effect is often stronger than the sum of the effects of individual species. This means that even though the effects of individual species may be small individually, they can still have a large collective impact on the focal species. This finding is important for understanding the fate of species introduced into an occupied environment, as well as for applications in medicine and agriculture, such as probiotics and biocontrol agents. It is also relevant for ecological questions surrounding migrating and invasive species. This article was authored by Amicai Bachman-Cas, Tingting Song, and Jonathan Friedman.

Hello and welcome to the Grand Line Review, your source for everything One Piece, except for today because, as you can see, there is nothing really One Piece related going on here. Actually wait, you know what? We can fix that. Hold on. Alright, that's better. Hello and welcome to the Grand Line Review, your source for everything One Piece, and today is a very momentous occasion because what I thought was the impossible, as indeed happened. So just over a month ago, this channel reached 100,000 subscribers, which is already absurd and I need to thank each and every one of you for making that possible. However, not only did that actually happen, but YouTube itself has also recognized the achievement of the Grand Fleet and they have sent out the coveted Silver Play button, which will be unboxing for you here today. Very exciting stuff. And as my biggest supporter, I have also invited my wife on to perform said unboxing. And also I do need to apologize in advance for the audio, it's not great because we were both far too excited to monitor it properly, but it should work fine for the purposes of the video I guess. But in any case, let's get straight into it. Hello, it is time to do a thing that I want to do. Do I get to do the thing now? Yes, you get to do the thing. Hello and welcome to the Grand Line Review, your source for everything One Piece. And today we have something very special, which get those out of the way, is going to be an unboxing of the Silver Play Button. No touching. But you said I could touch. That was the point. And because I'm married, this has to be a shared experience as does the rest of life. Stop it yet. Not yet. I want to. And so the honours are going to go to Grand Line Waifu. Yay. Grand Line Waifu. Yeah. Could you please commence the unboxing?  You seem far more excited about this than I am.  You've given me a tool I don't know how to use. A box cutter can only be used one way to cut boxes. Right? To cut the tape. Not the box. How do I cut the box? Find a little gap in the tape and then you go. But there's no gap in the tape. That's the point. And don't do me that. I'm going to do it. No, I'm going to find a way into this box because I'll fight my way into the box. Gonna fight my way. Gonna fight the box. Gonna fight the box. Oh, God, it's defeating me. Give me scissors. Normal human scissors. I can do this. I'm left handed. You used scissors in the strangest. I did it. OK, we're in. We're in. Guys, we're in. I'm excited. Don't whisper. Guys, we're in. Liam, what do you think I'm going to do if I don't use... OK. I'm not cutting the card. Cut the tape. I'm trying.   Liam, I will hurt you. Ha! Victory! Yeah, half an hour fiddling with scissors. One second with the box cutter. Yeah, where it was possible. The trivia for the box cutter. Oh. It's a box, Liam. It's a box. I love it already. Who doesn't love boxes? In fact, we don't need to see anything else, do we? Oh, oh, there's a letter. Do you want the letter? Shall I read the letter? Sure, the letter. Then read the letter. OK, I'll take this out. Here, you can have this. What is it? Oh, oh, oh. No, I'm going to read that too. OK, I'm an actor, so this will be great. Congratulations on your subscriber milestone. Wait, they're American, right? YouTube is American. Correct. Congratulations on your subscriber milestone. We are honored to take part in recognizing your achievement and want your experience to be exceptional. This award was inspected and packaged with great care by Rick. If your award was damaged during shipping or if you have any questions, please contact us at this account. All right, so if it's damaged, then it's Rick's fault. Got it. OK, we've got another one, another letter. OK, OK, do I have to read this one too? You volunteered. This one's going to be English because I'm English. So you've just done something that very few YouTube creators accomplish.  You had an astonishing 100,000 people subscribe to your channel. We know that numbers on YouTube can get really big, but we hope that you don't lose sight of the reality behind that six-digit milestone. Each and every person. Less sexual, more congratulatory. Each and every person who has subscribed to your channel has been touched. Less sexual, more congratulatory. By what you created, they were inspired, challenged, or entertained. Less sexual, sorry. You achieved this milestone with hard work, perseverance, perseverance, perseverance, and probably a healthy sense of humor too.  I don't remember where I left off.   We know that you don't do this for rewards. You do it because you have a drive to create and share, and because you found an audience who cares. You don't know me. OK, fine. We know that you do this for rewards. We know you don't do it because you have a drive to create and share, and because you haven't yet found an audience who cares. Cool. Believe us when we say that we can't wait to see what you do next. Neither can I. What's the next video? Anyway, a million subscribers may seem a long way off right now, and I'm going to say this last one in Australian. And we're rooting for you. Your sincerely, Susan unpronounceable surname, the CEO of YouTube. I'm really sorry I can't pronounce your name. You're going to have to put that out publicly somewhere so that I can read it. Cool. That took a long time. It did. All right. Now, what is the thing?  Sure, the thing. That's the point of the video, show the thing. Ba, ba-da-da, ba-ba-ba. I should probably open this as well. I agree. I mean, you said less sexual, but ba-ba-ba-ba-da-da. Oh, I see me. You see me, actually? And the microphone. Oh. And that. Perfect. Hey. The back of this feels soft and fabric-y. Fabric-y? Fabric-y. I've decided where this is going to go. Oh, I can see me. Hey, guys. Hey, Colin. So it says presented to Grand Line Review for passing 100,000 of you amazing subscribers. You guys are great. You guys are pretty phenomenal. And my wife thinks you're cool. Yeah. That's hard to do. I don't think a lot of people are cool, but you guys are. My wife is notoriously picky about who is cool and who is not cool. That is actually very true. I very rarely think people are cool. I, in fact, don't think he's cool. So, good on you. That's true. Yeah. And there we have it. I can't stress enough just how ridiculous this moment is, because when I started this channel four years ago and then started properly producing for it three years ago, this is something that I never, ever thought would have been possible.  Until it got passed about the 95K mark, it still never felt like a viable reality. And that's because I not only underestimated myself, but also all of you. And look, this is going to sound like a bunch of sappy crap, but I legitimately believe that I have, by far, the best audience on YouTube. You're all incredibly encouraging, insightful, and generally amazing viewers who just like the Straw Hats manage to surpass all expectations.  This channel would not be where it is without you. And I also need to give a special thanks to the entirety of the Grand Line Review Discord Server and its moderation team. You guys have built such a fantastic community and I'm very proud to have been part of that. Now, as for where we go from here, look, we're definitely not done growing. Just like the letter says, the next milestone would be one million and that is an awfully, awfully long road ahead. But considering that I never even thought that we'd get this far, I'm probably not the best person to judge just how possible that is. What I do know is that this channel will keep fighting with the incredible support from all of you and perhaps one day, we can even become the pirate king of YouTube. But I do also believe that it's important to have more immediate goals in mind. And the next challenge I'd like to present is to achieve 100,000 of you amazing individuals subscribed to my second channel, New World Review, which focuses on every other anime and manga that is not One Piece. We've just passed the 26,000 mark, so we're already a quarter of the way there, but I know for a fact that we can smash that 100K mark. So you know what, let's do it and continue to make our mark on this platform. But for right now, thank you all once again and I think it's about time for me to get back to making more One Piece content. And that pretty much does it for the unboxing of our Silver Play Button. If you enjoyed this video and the content this channel produces in general, then please do consider donating to the Grand Line Review Patreon because the support of all of you amazing people, as stated in the video, is what continues to make this channel possible. And if you'd like to see more videos like this, but applied to other anime and manga series, then please do check out my second channel, New World Review, for all of your wider needs. And if you'd like to join the fun at any time, and yes, it is so much good fun, then please do head over to my Discord server where a wide array of shenanigans takes place on a daily basis. And finally, please do feel free to congratulate yourselves for this amazing achievement in the comments. This has been the Grand Line Review, and I'll see you next time. I get to keep this one. Right, it's an advert. No, you don't. I get to keep this one. Stop looking at yourself through my ward. I need a mirror in my room. I'm taking this. Thanks, team. I feel like the unboxing has ended poorly for me.
