Hey guys, it's Nate, aka The Foot Accountant. Welcome back to the channel. It is a Monday and that means we are starting a brand new week and we have good content every single day to look forward to this week inside of FIFA 22 with this Winter Wild Cards Promo EA. Just keep pushing the gas pedal in terms of content. It just is good value content, good player SBCs. We have new player items that are in packs from yesterday as a mini release as expected and we have more great SBCs coming according to the leaks that are out there. We'll talk about that a little bit today and since we're kind of looking at this whole week ahead, we got to talk about some pack code that was added. A party bag SBC still is on the horizon, right? In the back of people's minds, of course, we're thinking about Black Friday and we did not see the party bag that was added to the code on Black Friday actually dropped in the game but that is maybe an SBC that we could see this week. I also think that might be an SBC that dropped on Christmas Day. They did that last year. They dropped a party bag SBC. I believe it was like either a day after Christmas or on Christmas, one of the two. They dropped that right around the holiday, right? Because this promo was very holiday related. It's a very festive promo, the snowflakes, the snow in the game, Winter Wild Cards, right? Winter Wonderland would have been a great name for the promo as well because people are loving this promo. They really are. I think that's going to be the overarching premise over everything that we talked about today and even in yesterday's video, we talked about how the market's been dropping off a lot. People are just loving these brand new cards. The boosts on them are great. This Luca Modric, we actually have some lightning rounds that are running right now. So this price has dropped some. I bought one at $8.72, sold it at $9.20 or something like that. So just a little bit of profit on a quick flip on this Modric card but these card boosts are insane. People are just loving these. The daily SBCs are fantastic. And people are, again, I tweeted out on Friday, I said, hey, is this promo better than Footmiss? What do you guys think? And a lot of people are getting Footmiss vibes from this promo because Footmiss of Old was always such a beloved promo. And this is, the reasons we love this promo is why Footmiss was loved. So keep up the WCA sports. That's all I got to say because this week is still going to look like a lot of fun if the content keeps rolling as it has been. Now, we've had three days in a row and this is where we're going to get into things today. We've had three days in a row of good value player SBCs. Zaha, Sau, and yesterday, Pandev. I know he's really hard to link but for 50,000 coins, it's just a cool card. If it doesn't fit your team, you don't want to do the SBC, that's fine. Do the loan versions that you have. By the way, I would recommend doing the loan versions of all of these if you have not, especially for icon swaps. The second set of tokens, they'll come out in a couple of weeks. We don't have Bundesliga or La Liga as a part of the friendlies. I think that this Sau and then today we're supposed to get Auar. I think that those would be SBCs you want to do the loans of so that you can have some better cards and friendlies, just maybe make your life a little bit easier. A lot of people are going to do that. So that's probably a smart place to get involved. So let's take a look at the pack though that we just kind of were talking about, that PartyBag SBC and the Auar SBC. Now, the PartyBag is probably going to be an SBC that comes out this week or sometime in the Winter Wild Cards promo. I think that, you know, I'm surprised it didn't drop during Black Friday. I really am. They know, EA know that people love these types of SBCs. And this promo is seriously so much more SBC based than Black Friday was. I think it's literally inevitable that we see this pack come out. Now again, it's called the Winter Roundup Pack, but we know it as a PartyBag, right? Because it is a pack that contains items from other promo teams that are no longer in packs.  Think about Once to Watch, even you still have Once to Watch, Messi, Ronaldo, Rulebreakers, Holland, Dembele, Suarez, Rutiger, Trent Alexander, Arnold, very usable cards, Numbers Up, Felix, Jutta, Ettermily Tau, Rohr to the Knockouts, you know, Werner, DeYoung, team of the group stage. So many great cards in there, right? Saints for signings, right? With the Renato and the KDB. So this pack right here, I do think that it's either going to come out this week or on the weekend. I think it's going to be in the next seven days. We are going to see this pack. I think it's going to be an SBC because that is exactly what EA Sports did last year. And I wanted to kind of talk you through how the market might be impacted on this and how much it's going to cost. So last year, they dropped a foot-freeze party bag. I believe they dropped it. It says December 27th. So it was a couple days after Christmas. It was on kind of like the end of the foot-freeze promo. Now, what is this cost, right? Last year, the SBC was basically the same thing. It included players in the pack from all the promos up until the current one. Now, last year, it also included foot-freeze players. And this pack code does not include the winter wild cards items that are in packs right now, nor does it include the foot-versus items. So you don't have to worry about those, but I think those prices for all of the cards in the whole market are going to be affected if this SBC drops. But this party bag SBC last year was like 70K. An 84-rated squad and an inform were the requirements. 84-rated squad, 50 chemistry, one informed player, non-repeatable, right? This would be a one-time non-repeatable. But this is the type of SBC that everybody's going to do. And SBC fodder is mad cheap, right? 84s are 2.4, 2.5,000 coins, 85s are like 6K, 86s are 11K. Since the SBCs right now, they're all really cheap.  But as a lot of us noticed, and a lot of the thumbs up on this card, you know, this is a really good card. And this is going to be probably this dude's best version ever in FIFA 32 pace on the upgrade, right? 37 sprint speed on an individual upgrade for this card. 50 stamina. This guy got plus 50 stamina. How cracked is that? So this is just kind of like the King Kazoo and Nakamura SBCs that were a couple of weeks ago. This is just fun, right? This is just flat fun. But it didn't move the SBC market on fodder. If we take a look at the index 84, it literally just went down because the pack supply outweighed the demand for this Panda of SBC. If a party bag and when a party bag drops, this fodder is going to rise, it's going to spike. Now, actually, if you remember seeing the graph on Friday, it's probably not going to show on here. But you saw a really short rise last week, Thursday night into Friday, when the party bag was added into the code, people see code drops like this, and they just go buy fodder. In my opinion, a lot of people have already bought fodder for this. So there's a lot of like fodder supply and fodder investors that are still out there waiting to sell. But I think it is going to go up a little bit this week because your supply is kind of ending, right? Sundays are usually the last days where they run all the lightning rounds. There still might be a few lightning rounds throughout the week, but we don't have an icon upgrade SBC that's out right now. We don't have a party bag. We're going to get more player SBCs, including our today, which we'll still talk about in a minute. I think these 84s on bid, especially today with some supply coming in from weakening rewards that are going to be released every to everybody in a few hours. This might be some of your like last gas of supply. And you might be able to club stock a few of these I would go for like the 84s and the 85s. In my humble opinion, that's where I would put my coins. I've already got a high rated fodder in the club as a club stock. I'm just waiting for big SBCs to come to kind of to kind of rise it up at the moment. So I would focus on this range of fodder though kind of the lower tier for a party bag. And the SBCs they've been releasing lately again have been such good value. And that's why that end of the market I think has more potential to move in the short term, right? For the short term, I think that's there's more potential for that fodder movement there. Now this is the SBC car that we are supposed to be getting today on Monday. Monday might be a pretty banging day for content. This our SBC, of course, last year, he had a foot freeze item. If we take a look at his card, I want to kind of generations compared to the 86 hour that we had last year. And actually just look to these leaks and look at the stats. Last year, we had an hour striker position change. I think everybody still play this card as like a cam or in the midfield. But this car that we're getting supposedly today is very similar. 90 dribbling, 86 pace, 86 shooting, 86 passing, 70 defense and 77 physical. This looks more like a central midfielder than last year's card for sure. Plus 10 on the defense compared to last year. But this card looks really good.  When they drop our SBCs, people love it because incredible links, league one and French. So many people, if this SBC for this card is like less than 150 K today on this game, so many people are going to go out and do this. And we've seen it before where a lot of the links to these SBCs when they're really good value rise up. Again, you take a look at some of the players that link to like sow, like Mbabu is 130,000 coins, Cornette is still very high in price. Where is he? I think I saw Cornette. Yeah, still 124,000 coins. So a lot of the players that link to the sow to the Zaha, the very popular players that are in this game and on this game right now as a part of winter wildcars, they go up. So watch out for your links to our today. Now one interesting thing too is along with this SBC today, there's been a new card added to the code. And that is this birth birth. Oh, Meyer, Jason Berthel Meyer, four star, four star, high, low, people are thinking this might be like an objective. We haven't had like a league specific milestone objective. As you guys know, we have the like the Premier League, the squad foundations. No, yeah, Premier League league player, this one like the league players Syria, La Liga, we don't have League one yet. That is the only top five league that we do not have. We've got Bunas League, La Liga, Syria and Premier League. So supposedly people think that Berthel Meyer is going to be coming today or if not today very, very soon for a objective in this game because it's added to the code. So that's kind of what we're thinking for like today's content. Of course, an upgrade packs would be something that could be a part of today's content as well. We had the 81 plus doubles last week. I think that means a lot of people would be hoping to see a 75 plus player pick. I believe there's also like an 80 plus player pick that's in the code. So if they dropped either of those people would be going all out with the cards that are impacts right now. And with the SBCs that are craftable at the moment, people will be putting a lot of coins into player picks and that would drop the market even more, I think. So that's kind of what we're looking at for today's content. Of course, we could have icon SBCs and icon upgrade SBC all that stuff is like, you know, potential as well since it didn't drop yesterday. So we'll keep an eye out for that and be ready for that. But it's just again, it's a very big SBC based promo and that is why you see this market dropping off a lot. Now speaking of SBCs, we've had more of these winter wildcard ones before we talk about market a little bit. We're going to get more of these SBCs the winter wildcard tokens. And right now a lot of you guys like trading on the low tier budget or if you are on like let's say less than 2050 or 100,000 coins trading with some of these SBCs are insane, insane, insane, insane, because it's all on the solutions that show on foot been a lot of non rares. I think the one that was released yesterday was this guy. Yeah, it's like a 55 k pack that you get alongside of this token. It requires 95 chemistry. The higher the chemistry, the harder it is. So people go onto footbin and they look up solutions, right? Let me show you what happens. People go into footbin, they go under the solutions tab, active challenges, they say boom, the brand new winter wildcards challenge that gets you a 55 k pack, which is a sick W of course costs about 8,000 coins to do. All right, completed challenges. Boom, we go search search search by ps4. All right, boom, this is the cheapest SBC they just click into here. Oh, it requires loyalty. All right, so they might back out after it requires loyalty. But let's go into here Zapata. This is the Oh, this is the easiest and quickest way to do it. Okay, Zapata is how much right 850 Daniel Mon 750. Well, I bet if you go into market and look, this delay card is not 850 coins, as it says he is in footbin because SBC is in solutions like this. People go on just like I did to look up these cards, and these cards will go up crazy amounts in price because people just buy these items without even thinking about it. How much is the delay? Is he actually a thousand coins right now? No way. Wow. All right, well, I've seen people selling this delay card for over, literally for over 2k, like this guy spikes up and down like crazy. So you know what, I might join, I'm going to join the club right now. I'm just going to pick up some delays for 950 because I know that this guy goes to like 1.3 to 1.4k or even higher. I'm just going to pick up a page and I don't do a lot of trading like this because number one, if you buy these cards by the hundreds, you can absolutely get banned, right? You can get absolutely stuffed, because EA's like sniping whatever seems to pick up these cards like incredibly, incredibly well. Yeah, this guy was 2.7k at one point. So I'm just going to throw all those on the transfer list right quick because I think those are going to be like probably 2k at some point in the next couple of hours. And I just don't have time to do a lot of trading like this. I don't enjoy doing a lot of trading like this.  It gets very, very, very crazy. So just be careful with that kind of trading. Like if you're doing it with the hundreds, I just bought 10 cards, right, or 12 cards, I'm not going to get banned for that. But if I was buying hundreds upon hundreds, then you run the risk of getting banned. But that part of the market right now is insane for trading with. Insane. The non-rares, the rares, as people are doing those SBCs and they're kind of hard to do. So, you know, that's why people go to the solutions and the solutions that show up first, then Footbin's Up updates the price when Delet right now shows for 850, he's going to go to like 2k, then he'll come back down. So, that's the kind of solution trading you can be doing right now if you want to trade with that stuff. It's insane. And it moves a ton on the market. Now, today on Monday, let's talk market some more, right? We can make rewards. And with the lightning rounds right now, the late night, early morning, like, lightning rounds, let me just show you guys what's going on in the store. They've been doing these lightning rounds again. It's at like 3 and 4 am UK time when they release these. They release either 100 k-packs or 85 plus star, kind of like late night lightning rounds. They're still sitting here, right? These like rarely sell out. But 85 plus star where preview packs, this is actually dropped some of the winter wildcards like in the last 30 minutes, 40 minutes that these lightning rounds have been out. I like Kingsley Coleman has dropped down like 20,000 coins. Again, I sold a Modric at 920 and 919. And he's now under 900,000 coins. Jonathan David was just like 180, 190 actually. He's like 174. So, you know, spin as old as like 155. I do think that today with these lightning rounds, these cards are going to kind of get low before rewards, depending on when you're watching this video. And then some of these cards could potentially rise post weakening rewards time frame. So, keep an eye out for this. If people are really genuinely wanting to try some of these cards out today, which I think is a possibility, especially as I see people tweeting out that like this Malikovic Savage card is just crazy hyped and crazy, crazy good in this game. Also with some other items like Fabinho and Pugba and like Nelson Samedo, people might get up today and say, hey, I'm going to go try some of these cards out. Some of these cards might rise as long as there's no new information coming out about like, you know, any sort of SBC or leaks of what's coming today. You could see a few of these rising into the content drop to down Monday, but then I would probably get out with a quick flip, right? Flipping the cards impacts. Definitely the quick ins and outs are the way to go when you're trading with these cards. Fabinho is 460, 450 at the moment, which is kind of crazy. Neymar is down a lot. If you're watching this Neymar item, he was 4 million coins yesterday. He was just 3.5. He's now back up a little bit. He's like 3.7. But this Neymar was down a 3.5 mil, which was kind of crazy. So a lot of people are finishing their week and weeks selling some cards off, and that's why you're seeing these cards drop. And of course, you'll probably see some demand pick up this morning on Monday. But again, with all the SBCs that we still have coming later on this week, whether it is our R or all of the other cards that are going to be coming out through these daily player SBCs this week, I would probably not think that this is going to be the low point for those Winter Wild Cards impacts. They're only in the game impacts until Thursday. But I think I'll be waiting on some of those if you were looking to purchase for your team or something like that. I would still be waiting on that. Now some of the out-of-packs market could be an interesting look. Again, we talked about the potential for the Party Bag SBC. If a Party Bag SBC were to drop, fodder would definitely go up, and you would have a lot of these other cards go down. I think you would see numbers up cards, row to the knockouts. You would see panic selling across the whole market. Some of these cards that link to the very popular SBCs that are out right now, like Mbabu and Cornette, those guys are technically not Mbabu, but Cornette, for example, rule breakers are in the Party Bag. People might sell Cornette because he might be a halfway commonly packed card from the Party Bag. Also, people would sell cards to go and do the SBC, to raise coins so they can go buy the fodder to do the SBC. You're going to see a panic sell, but then some of these cards that are out-of-packs, I think you would see the best sorts of rebounds on items that link to the most popular SBCs that are brand new and that are out in this game. Again, if we would get a Party Bag like even today on Monday, if Cornette or Mbabu or any of the links to those Sao or the Zaha SBC or Awar, if it comes out today, those would be great cards to buy out-of-packs cards like in the Panic Selling because those are going to bounce back up the greatest because that's where the demand is on this game. So definitely keep an eye out for that. I'm watching a few cards tonight, but if I'm trading, I'm just going to kind of trade with what's hot, right? The versus items, this versus Gabriel Jesus is really interesting to me at the moment. Now, of course, for the versus ice cards, you've got to be really careful. I'm watching the versus fire Gabby Jesus because he was like 1.1 million coins yesterday and now he's a mill. If this were to go back, yeah, you see like 1.09 overnight. If this were, if I could catch one of these at like 950 or something, like a Gabriel Jesus fire version, like a 950, I'd feel really, really safe about that. So just watch some of these cards they might pick up again. As some of them have dropped off loads, there might be some fluctuations on the rare and most popular cards on this market today as well. So obviously, keep an eye out for that. I got to talk about icons for a second too, because a lot of you guys maybe are trading with some prime icons that have just come out. I know a lot of people lost coins yesterday on prime icons as well. And the prime icon market is a crazy place at the moment. It's actually really wild because a lot of these cards dropped. Now, I remember last year as well, I bought prime icons on the like literally the day after they came out. The next morning, they went up a bunch. But again, this is a completely different market this year. Like I can't believe that prime balik is 1.1 million coins. That is wild to me. I can't believe that prime Zambrata is 700k. He was 700k yesterday.  He was 1.3 million coins last year for a week before his price dropped off. Stoichkopf is only 1.4 mil. I think that's ridiculous. I watched this Kaka sell. He was just 1.8 a couple hours ago. Right now, I see people are like trying to list them up and get a flip because yes, these cards are very rare. But a lot of them are so much cheaper than normal. But that's just how the market is this year. I think it's a supply this year. The way that the market is, Blanc is really low. Prime Eusebio is like prime Del Piero. Are you kidding me? Prime Del Piero is 800k coins. His mid version was 800k coins like two or three weeks ago, maybe four weeks ago, right before Black Friday. I think that's ridiculous. I know that some of the mid and the baby cards are a little bit better than the primes and stuff like that. But like this Baggio, man, five star skills. I know he's got not the greatest work rates, but still, I think it's just a combination of this year's market and also what's going on right now with the game. Everybody in the game right now is worried about the SPC's and that sort of content and trying out cards, especially if people are playing icon swaps and doing objectives. The demand just isn't really to try out the brand new icon. I think that's why some of those prices are low. But today and this week is going to be a very, very interesting week on the market. These cards are only in packs until Thursday when the season ends. But I think the team two is going to be on Friday, right? A normal promo Friday release for that. So we'll keep an eye off that, of course. But hopefully the content continues to be insane this week. Watch out for more of the wild card tokens, SPC's. I got to get on those. I can't forget those because I got to get that 85 times 10 stack that into the store. Probably save that for team of the year. We'll see, right? Probably save that for team of the year. I maybe won't even redeem it until January 14th when we get close to team of the year. So I don't get tempted to open it in the meantime. But keep grinding away at those. And if you want to trade again with those lower tier cards in the market, they're absolutely insane to trade with. So it's going to be another great week of content.  So I'm excited to see what EA comes out with, how they price the SPC's. And I'm just excited because the content right now is flowing. It's good. And it's fun. And it's a GG from EA Sports. So that's the video for today. If you did enjoy it, smash the thumbs up on it, comment down below if you have any questions, and subscribe if you're new. It's been Nathan Ford Account. And I'll catch you guys later. Peace.


Kraft presents The Great Gilder Sleeve. Hee hee hee. Cheese Company will also bring you Bing Crosby every Thursday night. Present each week at this time Harold Perry as The Great Gilder Sleeve, written by John Whedon and Sam Moore. Sleeve in just a moment. But first, when somebody mentions a food that you haven't tried, do you ask, uh, what does it taste like, or is it nutritious? Well, more and more people are asking both these questions about parquet margarine every day. They've heard that parquet is an outstanding red ration stamp value at only five red ration points a pound, but everybody these days seems to want to know about flavor and about nutrition. Well, flavor is hard to describe, but I can tell you that parquet margarine, like all of Kraft's fine foods, has a quality flavor that's fresh and sweet and deliciously good. Yes, I think your very first taste will convince you that parquet is a truly satisfying spread for bread and an appetizing seasoning for hot vegetables. You'll find that parquet adds real flavor for home baking, too. And it's just about perfect for pan frying. As for nutrition, your government officially encourages the daily use of vitamin fortified margarine, and parquet margarine contains 9,000 units of vitamin A in every pound. What's more, parquet is one of the best energy foods you can serve. So for a real red ration stamp value in flavor and nutrition, serve your family parquet, P-A-R-K-A-Y. Parquet margarine made by Kraft. Now let's join our friend, the Great Gilder Sleeve, who's daily becoming more aware of the fact that in only a couple of weeks, he'll be a married man. And so faced with the imminent prospect of a wedding, a honeymoon, and a life of bliss, we find him hastily putting his affairs in order. To start with, he's called a meeting of his entire staff in the office of the water department. No, Bessie, I want all the chairs to face my chair. I'm going to be the chairman. Everybody faces me. You can sit here at your desk and take notes. Yes, Mr. Commissioner. Well, here comes Uncle Charlie. How's everything out at the reservoir, Charlie? All right, Commissioner. What's all this fiddle paddle I get from that dappy girl about a meeting? Oh, hello there, sugar. I didn't see you. My name is Miss Bard, and I'm not dappy. Okay, have it your way. But let's get at this meeting, Commissioner. I got work to do, and my dad busted pump engine. Yeah, all right, Charlie. Just as soon as we're all here, we'll start. Well, who are we waiting for? Don't tell me I've got a sitting fan myself till Whiney Flynn gets here. Charlie, Whiney Flynn is a member of our staff. He's our official troubleshooter. Troubleshooter makes more trouble than he shoots. He can't get over the idea the way to fix a pipe is to crawl inside of it. Yeah, but he can't.  He can't. He can't crawl in a 12-inch pipe anymore than I can. Anymore than you can even. Now, Charlie, trouble with him is he don't know it. Why, two years ago, before you was commissioner, I had to get up in the middle of the dad busted night on a kind of whine. He got stuck halfway into a drain pipe. How'd you get him out?   Why was he mad?  Well, maybe we shouldn't wait for Whiney. He went on a call to the mayor's house. All right, then let's get down to cases. I can't futile away the whole day. It's all right, all right. The meeting will come to order. Now, I shall first state the purpose of this meeting. The purpose is to plan for my honeymoon. That's all, brother. See you later. Charlie, don't misunderstand me. I simply want things to run smoothly while I'm away. That's all. In other words, you and Bessie and Whiney will have to divide up my duties between you. You know what they are, don't you? Well, let's see. The rain falls out of the heavens and runs into the reservoir. Then I see that it's purified and pumped into the mains. Then Whiney sees that it gets to the houses and the girl here sees that the folks pay for it. Mr. Gildersleeve, I ask you, what in tunk it is a water commissioner? Charlie, are you suggesting that I'm a parasite? Parasite, my eye. You're a... Never mind. Let's not get personal here, Charlie. All right, let's wind up this spell and be so I can get back to work. If I don't get some oil in that Jalopy by 11.30, she's likely to blow a gasket. Well, all right, Charlie. Now, just one thing first. I'm going to be married on June 27th, but I'll be back at my desk the 12th of July. Well, then what's all the shooting for? We've got lots of time. Yes, but I want to be sure you'll all function perfectly while I'm away. So I'd like to have a trial period first, starting today. And what do you mean, Mr. Gildersleeve? For one week, we'll all pretend I'm not here, including me. You mean you won't even come to the office? Huh? Oh, yeah. Might make it more realistic. Do you understand the plan now, Charlie? Oh, sure. Okay. And the meeting is adjourned and I'm gone for the week. All right, so long, commissioner. Wait a minute, Charlie. What? I'm in a hurry, Dad. Pust it. Never mind. I just want to warn you to get out your Sunday suit and take it out of the mothballs because on June 27th, I want you to come to my wedding. Wedding? Oh, me, commissioner?  I'll speak to Mrs. Ransom about it today. Well, I'll be... Thanks. Mrs. Ransom, huh? She's the... Whatchamacallit? Yes, she's my fiancée, yes. Dad, busted widows, knock over more good men.  But, Mr. Gildersleeve... You're on your own now, Bessie. Whatever comes up, just handle it in your own way. Don't come to me about it. We're pretending I'm not here. Is that understood? Yes, sir. Very well. I'm sorry, Mrs. Ransom, but Mr. Gildersleeve is pretending. It's Leela, it's Leela, darling. Come on in. Bessie, show her in. Thank you. Oh, Strockmorton, I do hope you'll forgive me if I seem to monopolize you little these days. Forgive you? I love it. All right, Bessie, you may close the door. That's the use of being in love if you... No, Bessie, go out and close the door. That Bessie, I'm gonna have to let her go. I suppose you're frightfully busy, Strockmorton, but I just had to come down and see you. I'm glad you did, Leela, because I got something for you. For me? Well, for the both of us, for after we're married. Oh, darling, how exciting! Must I close my eyes? No, it's nothing like that. As a matter of fact, this is sort of intended to open your eyes. It's a budget. A budget? A budget for our household. It accounts for every penny. Here, see? Oh, Strockmorton, you're such a practical man. Well, you have to be practical some of the time, Leela. I'll sit down here and let me show you how I've worked this thing out. Oh, Strockmorton, you're a darling, and I know it's a darling budget, but I'm just not in the mood right now for budgets and all, do you mind? We gotta talk about it sometime. Well, some other time, because right now I've got something much more important to discuss with you. Oh, what's that? Well, we've simply got to decide who you're going to have for your best mine. Well, that's all decided. I'm going to get Fever McGee. Well, that's one of the things I wanted to talk with you about, Strockmorton. I know that you and Mr. McGee were very close. Close? We were right at each other's throats for years. But I wonder how it's going to sound in the society column. What? Well, Mrs. Rionson was attended by her sister, Mrs. Winfield Barrington Scott. Mr. Gildersleeve's best mine was a Mr. Fever McGee. Well, what do you want him to do? Change his name? Well, I just thought it would sound so much more dignified if your best mine would judge Howard's Hooker. Hooker? Oh, that would be great. Mrs. Rionson was attended by her sister, Mrs. Scott. Mr. Gildersleeve was attended by an old goat. Friends you've got. What do you mean, the only friend I've got? I've got plenty of friends, plenty. Well, you say. I don't have to McGee, have McGee if I don't want to. But if you've already asked him. I haven't asked him. I've got a good mind not to. McGee is just the kind of a guy who would come to your wedding and then make cracks. I can get married without McGee. But who else could you get? Plenty of people. But who? Well, there's Hooker. Why not? Of course I don't know if you could get him. Could I get Hooker? Oh, darling, you have the best ideas. But Hooker was your idea. Oh, I just suggested it. It was rarely your idea. Oh, well, we can't fool around here forever. Things to be done here, decisions to be made, a wedding to be performed. Oh, Schrockmotton, there's one thing I'll say for you. You certainly have a mind of your own. Yes, my dear. Sooner or later you'll learn that that's the only way to get things done. Make a decision, any decision, but stick to it. Yes, dear. And speaking of that young lady, I want you to sit down here now and go over this budget. Oh, but I can't, Schrockmotton, not right now. Right now, right this minute. Well, I'll tell you what I'll do. I'll go over it with you tonight. Young woman, who is the master in this house? Why? It's all I wanted to know. I'll see you tonight. Lady, I'm tonight, Aunt. Buzz Bonanno versus Nosy Wendell. You think you'd like to go? No, Leroy, and for the millionth time you can't go either. Why, Aunt? We've been over this thing before, young man, in the first place. I got the money.  Well, I can sleep late tomorrow. Leroy, the discussion is over. Okay. However, there's another matter I'd like to talk to you about before lunch. I trust it'll be a very pleasant talk. Do we have to go in your study? No, we can sit here. Well, it might be pleasant at that. Yes. Sit down, my boy, sit down. Okay. Now, what's eating you? I'm in a good temper, Leroy. Don't fool with it. Oh. You realize that on June 27th, Mrs. Ransom and I will be married. See, that's right. It won't be long now. I sincerely hope you approve of the step I'm taking. Well... We needn't go into it now. What I want to tell you is that after we're married, we're going to Lake Hackmatack for a couple of weeks. Lake Hackmatack? Oh boy, won't we have fun? Leroy. What? I don't like to disappoint you, but you're not going on my honeymoon. I'm not going to discuss this any further. The purpose of the honeymoon is to enable Mrs. Ransom and myself to get better acquainted. Your presence will not help. Okay. But you'll have to get acquainted with me sometime. No, my boy. While I'm away with Mrs. Ransom, you'll have a much greater responsibility. Yeah? What? You'll be the man of the house, Leroy. You'll have to protect Marjorie and Birdie. Can I have your pistol? No. Then how am I going to protect them? You won't let me have a gun. You won't let me go to the fight. Leroy, it won't be necessary to protect the household physically. I simply want to rely on you, my boy, to be able to feel that everything is being done just as it would be if I were here. Oh. I'm trying to arrange all my affairs this way at the office as well as the home. Can I count on you as head of the house? I guess so, honk. Starting when? Starting right now. You're to handle everything and make your own decisions just as if I weren't here.  Yes, sir. I just made my first one. What is it? Birdie will have supper early tonight, please. I've decided to go to the fight. Leroy. Leroy will be with us again in just a few seconds. Meanwhile, I was talking to our neighborhood grocer the other day as men sometimes do. I found out some mighty interesting things. I'd thought that a lot of customers might be blaming grocers for the nuisance of point rationing, for example. My grocer says that isn't so. According to him, most of you homemakers seem to know that point rationing is a bigger headache for him than for you. And he says it's amazing how cooperative you are. Planning family menus in advance and trying to get most chopping done early in the week and early in the day. But he did say, I hope people won't blame me when favorite foods like parquet margarine aren't in stock. Craft and other food companies are doing everything they can to keep me supplied, but what with wartime shortages and parquets growing popularity, I'm sometimes temporarily short. Well, I'm passing that along to you just as I got it from my grocer. And that's about all I have to tell you except to add, thanks for cooperating with your grocer. That's one very real way you're helping to win this war. Let's rejoin the great Gildersleeve. He spent a profitable but unpleasant afternoon paying bills and cleaning out clothes closets. But now, after a good big supper, he's returned to the task of preparing for his honeymoon. More specifically, he's checking over his camping equipment when van arrives to take Marjorie to the movies. Gildersleeve, I see you're going fishing. That's right, my boy. Oiling up the old reel. Listen to this. Sweet, isn't it? Sure is. Look at this rod. Split bamboo, garnet guide rings, just feel the play in it. Boy, that's sweet. And I think that a kid with a string and a bent pin can catch just as many fish. Who told you that, Leroy? You did. Well, don't you believe it? Ben, have you ever seen my shotgun? No, I don't believe ever have. Can I look too long? Well, if you'll be careful. Just get this padlock here. There. Isn't that a beauty? Boy, that really is. It's double-barreled. Yeah, I see it is. Look at that chasing on the barrel, Ben. It'll make guns like this anymore. No, not anymore. Oh, here's Marjorie. Well, I've already been doing with that shotgun. Huh? I'm getting ready for my honeymoon. Is that what all this stuff is for, Mr. Gildersleeve? Yeah, that's it, my boy. I'm going to have the finest honeymoon a man ever had. Wait till I tell you. Look, every morning, up at six o'clock for a plunge in the lake, get out and pile into a smoking breakfast. Who cooked breakfast? Mrs. Ransom. I mean, Lila. Then after breakfast, fishing. A darn lake is absolutely alive with fish, Ben. Just whistle, and they jump right up in the boat. Yeah, I bet. As a matter of fact, it's great for trolling. We'll do a lot of trolling. What is trolling, anyhow? Well, it's one of the finest forms of fishing there is, Leroy. I take my rod and I sit in one end of the boat with my line in the water, and the fellow at the other end rows the boat. Then I... Wait a minute. Who's that fellow at the other end of the boat? Well, he... Where did he come from? I guess we won't do any trolling. But the still fishing is just as good. And then we can hunt all afternoon. Rabbits and partridges.  Then after supper, we'll pitch horseshoes. What? Yes, sir. Got a whole set up. Yeah, I'm going to pack them in my bag right now. Sounds pretty good, doesn't it, Ben? Yeah. Sounds like there'll be plenty going on. Ben, come on, let's go to the movies. Excuse me, Mr. Gerson, could I... Phone the floor. Uncle Noy's getting ready for a track meet. Huh? Come on, Ben. Good night. Good night. And imagine what's the matter with Marjorie? Oh, well, women, women. What's that about women, Mr. Gilsie? Too deep for me is all, Bertie. Oh, yes, we're deep all right. Could I go to movies with a friend tonight, Mr. Gilsie? Certainly, Bertie, certainly. Thank you, sir. Good night, sir. Bertie. Yes, sir? Never mind. What's that you want me to do? Well, no. But I was just showing Miss Marjorie all this stuff here. And I'm taking on my honeymoon. And she acted like there was... Well, as if there might be something wrong with it. Do you know what... I don't know anything, Mr. Gilsie. But I could make a suggestion. What, Bertie? You ought to leave that shotgun behind and take along your mandolin. Yeah. Bye, George. You may be right, Bertie. Where else should I be angry with you? Well, you see, I opened an account today at Hogan Brothers, and I charged it. Charged it? Well, it's all right. They won't bill us for it till next month, and by that time, we'll be married. But, Leela, well, you see, in this budget I've drawn up, you have a special allowance for clothes. However? Yes. Now, perhaps you'd better let me explain to you about it right now. Yes, you do that, Throckmort. And you'll explain it to me. Well, I'll get the budget out of my briefcase. Come over here and explain it to me, Throckmort. And you can spread it out here on the piano. Well, you see, it's like this, Leela. Sit down here on the bench beside me so I can see. All right. Now, here's the first heading, Savings and Reserves. Under that, we have life insurance, automobile insurance, fire insurance, federal income tax, state income tax. Leela, how can you keep your mind in what I'm saying and play the piano? Go on, darling. My mind's on what you're saying. Well, mine isn't. Look, if you'll just sit still and listen to me till I finish this, Leela, I'll give you a prize. I'll take you downtown afterwards and buy you an ice cream soda. What? That's my signal. Oh, that must be Judge Hooker. Oh, I might have known it. I see you're not alone. Leela, what is he doing here? Well, and I asked the judge to help me with it. What do you want to know? I can explain it just as well as he can. That I doubt. Well, I paid a quarter of my tax on March 15th, didn't I? Yeah, that's right. And it says in the paper that three quarters of the tax is going to be forgiven. Yeah, that's right. Well, now the judge tries to tell me I have to pay another installment by the 15th. I'm sorry to say, Leela, that for once the old goat is right. Are you going to side with him, too? I'm not siding with anybody. I'm just telling you the facts. Oh, well, I think the whole thing is silly. Why should I pay any more? If you just listen to me, I'll tell you. Everybody has to pay an installment on his tax by the 15th, whether his tax was $5 or $5 million. Everybody. Is that clear? Well, you don't make it a bit clear by shouting at me. You're right, Leela. Guilty allow a lawyer to explain it. The legal mind handles these things better, I think. The legal mind. Reason is often more effective than racket. Now, Leela, this installment on your tax which falls due on the 15th is to be applied not against last year's tax, but against this year's. Is that clear? No, I think it's silly. Well, you just can't brush it off by saying it's silly. Let's be reasonable about this now. The tax you pay tomorrow is on your income this year. In other words, it's a step toward pay as you go. Pay as you go, pay as you went. The whole thing is just too complicated just for anybody to understand. That's because you won't try to understand. Besides, I'll think it's silly. Leela, I'm your attorney, am I not? Of course, Horace. And you trust me, don't you? Yes, Horace, I trust you, of course. I've been telling you for two weeks that you have to pay this tax installment, haven't I? Yes, but I don't understand what... You don't have to understand. But if you want to keep out of trouble, just take my word for it and pay the tax. Pay it, pay it, pay it. The legal mind. I'll just leave you two boys to work this out between you. Now, Throckmorton, you explain to Horace about budgets, and Horace, you explain to Throckmorton about taxes while I go upstairs and pat him on the nose. What do you do with a woman like that, Horace? Very simple, Gildy.  Handsome. Wow. I guess it won't be long now before I'll be calling you Mrs. Gildersmeade. Just two weeks. Think of that. You want to sit at the table, Leela, would you rather have your soda at the fountain? Oh, at the fountain is more fun, I think. All right, climb up. You really don't deserve one, you know. Oh, now, Throckmorton. You don't. You didn't keep your promise. What promise? You know what promise? I sit up for three nights making up a budget and you won't even look at it. Oh, Throckmorton, please.  Peavey, take my advice. Never have anything to do with women. Well, that advice comes a little late, Mr. Gildersmeade. About 23 years, in fact. Chocolate soda, did you say? Leela? Yes, chocolate for me. Chocolate for both of us. Chocolate, it is. Well, Peavey, you're a sensible man. Tell me, do you and Mrs. Peavey keep a budget? Oh, now, Throckmorton, don't spoil our sodas. But budgets are important, Leela. Aren't they, Peavey? Yes. Mrs. Peavey and I have kept a budget for years. You see? And you're stuck to it, too, haven't you, Peavey? Well, yeah, I wouldn't say that. But we tried. Oh, but what good is a budget? It only makes you sigh. Oh, you tell her, Peavey, I've tried everything. Well, you take Mrs. Peavey and myself. Without a budget, we could go broke and never know it. But this way, we know it. Well, that seems to me a very good reason not to keep one. Well, a budget has other uses. Now, for example, I can take out my budget for 1923. That was the year we drove to Old Point Comfort. You save them that far back? I've kept a record of every cent I've ever spent. And I can look up there under August 18, 1923 and see that on the morning we started out, I bought four quarts of oil at 38 cents a quart.  And then so much for lunch. And in the afternoon, 10 gallons of gasoline and another quart of oil, it brings back memories. Well, that's been going on for 23 years and Mrs. Peavey has never complained? Well, no, I wouldn't say... Yes, I will, too. As long as we've been married, I've never known Mrs. Peavey to do any real complaining. You see, Leela, people can be happy on a budget. Tell me, Mr. Peavey, what's it like to be married 23 years? Well, it's pretty nice. By that time, you and your wife have gone a lot of places together and you've learned to like the same things and you have a lot of little private jokes and it's kind of restful and nice. Of course, I've been fortunate. Mrs. Peavey is one in a million. I don't believe she's ever had a thought for herself or for anyone but me. That's the way it should be, Peavey. That's the way it should be. Throckmorton, I'd like to go now if you don't mind. But Leela, you haven't touched your soda. I know. I really don't care for it. Do you mind? Of course not, darling. If you don't feel like it. I'll just finish mine. Well, we'll go. Well, thanks, Peavey. Thank you. Good night. Good night, folks, and good luck. Good night, Mr. Peavey. It was a lovely soda. That's all right, Mrs. Ransom. Good night. Oh, brother, what a night. Isn't it beautiful, Leela? Look at those stars. By George, you could almost touch them. The night was made for love. The night was made for... Leela, what's the matter? Oh, Throckmorton, I'm so ashamed. Shamed? Shamed of what? I haven't been very nice to you. I really haven't. I've been selfish. Oh, no, you haven't? I have when you've worked so hard to please me, too.  Not on a beautiful romantic evening like this. Look at all the pretty stars. You see, they're winking at you.  Oh, Throckmorton, you're sweet. And from now on, I'm going to try to be a different girl. I truly am. From now on, I'm going to be nice to you and do everything you say. From now on? From now on. Beginning right now? Beginning right now. Yeah. Come here, young lady. No, Throckmorton, before we do another thing, you and I are going to go home and go over that budget. What? Come on. Leela, Leela, wait a minute. Can't you take a joke? Hang the budget. Leela! Judge. Going somewhere? Just down to the corner to mail a letter. Leela's income tax. I'll walk down with you. Thanks. Uh, by the way, Horace. Yes, Gildy? Are you doing anything in the 27th? Not that I know of. Why are you? Getting married. Oh, 27, huh? Yeah. It's not far off, is it? 14 days. 14 days. Horace. Yes, Gildy? You wouldn't want to be my best man, would you? Gildy, I wouldn't miss it for the world. What do you mean? If you ask me, this is one case where the best man does win. Yeah. Good night, everybody. Good night. Good night. Why this seven-minute macaroni and cheese soon? At your food store, be on the alert for point-saving, craft-


Sure, there are 26 letters in the English language, but as of January 1st, 2018, three of them became much more important to members of the military. They are B, R, and S. They stand for Blended Retirement System, the military's newest approach to providing retirement benefits for service members. This video will provide a high-level overview of what you need to know about the BRS, starting with Are You Even Eligible? There are three eligibility groups into which you could fall. Legacy System, Automatic BRS, and Optin Eligible for the BRS. Here, it's all about length of service as of December 31st, 2017, measured in years for active duty and points for guard and reserve. Let's begin with the Legacy System group. If you are on active duty with 12 or more years of service, or guard and reserve with 4,320 or more points as of December 31st, 2017, nothing changes with your retirement plan. You're grandfathered in and continue in the Legacy System. Now, let's look at the Automatic BRS group. If you join the military on or after January 1st, 2018, you're automatically enrolled in the BRS. There are no choices or decisions. BRS is your retirement system. And finally, let's look at the group in the middle, the Optin Eligible group. If you are on active duty with less than 12 years of service or guard and reserve with less than 4,320 points as of December 31st, 2017, you're in this group. If you do nothing, you'll stay in the Legacy Retirement System. However, you'll also be able to switch to the BRS if you choose. If you wish to opt in to BRS, you must do so during 2018. This window does not apply to certain ROTC and Service Academy cadets and midshipmen who will have longer to decide. Once BRS is elected, the decision cannot be reversed. So, now that we know who is eligible for the BRS, let's switch gears a bit and take a high-level look at the four main elements of the system. They are TSP contributions from your branch of service, continuation pay, a pension, and lump sum retirement options. First up, TSP contributions. Under the Legacy System, only the service member can make contributions to his or her Thrift Savings Plan account. However, under the BRS, your service branch will also contribute to your TSP account through automatic and matching contributions as illustrated in this chart. Now, let's look at continuation pay. Continuation pay is a lump sum payment made between 8 and 12 years of service in exchange for agreeing to serve no less than three additional years. The exact timing, amount, and other details of these payments will be set by each branch of service as they deem appropriate. Continuation pay in this form does not exist under the Legacy System. Next up, the BRS pension. The pension under the BRS is like the pension under the Legacy System in that you typically have to serve 20 years to get it. However, the BRS pension is 20% smaller. For example, the pension benefit under the Legacy System at 20 years would be 50% of retired base pay compared to only 40% under the BRS. And finally, the last major element of the BRS is the lump sum retirement option. With BRS, you can elect to receive a lump sum payout at retirement in exchange for reducing your monthly pension payout by either 25 or 50%. No such option exists under the Legacy System. So, to recap those, the BRS offers TSP contributions, continuation pay, and lump sum payout options not available under the Legacy System. However, the pension that's available under the BRS is 20% smaller than the Legacy System. What this all means to you will depend on your specific situation. For more information on the details of BRS, please visit militarypay.defense.gov or speak with a financial counselor on your installation.


Okay, so let's start. Our next speaker is Pascal Barhila, who is a co-worker of Dominic who spoke earlier today. He's based in Zurich in Switzerland, which is a multi-lingual country. He's been working with WordPress for half of his life, focusing especially in improving WordPress internationalization to make the web a better place. Today he will be sharing how to make use the latest and greatest technology to make your WordPress plugin or theme free internationalize. Please welcome Pascal. Alright, so as he already mentioned, today is all about the different ways of making your WordPress plugin and our theme sustainable, and especially the workflow around this. I will be tweeting slides afterwards, so this is my Twitter handle where you can follow me or just check for what I treat the slides. So obviously this talk is about internationalization in WordPress. Over the years WordPress has steadily improved the way we work with internationalization. Overall it does a very good job at this. However, challenges still exist and there are lots of things that we can make better and should make better. In this talk we will look at improving the internationalization workflow in particular and try to split things up into three topics. So first we're going to look at the bare basics of how internationalization works in WordPress and the history of that relationship. These things don't change no matter what your individual workflow looks like. Dominic talked a bit about this in the morning in case you want some deeper insights and have a nice talk. Make sure to watch the video afterwards. Second we look at how we can actually internationalize our WordPress plugin or theme. And what does it take to make our project available to people all around the world, no matter what the language is. And finally we will explore how we can reduce the barriers and improve existing workflows when it comes to internationalization. Before I start I want to quickly explain some of the terminology in this area of topics. This is about some of the terms you hear quite often in this talk but also online. We're talking about translations in WordPress in general. First of all, when I speak about internationalization I refer to the process of creating something that can be adapted to specific local languages and cultures. In other words, it's about making your project translatable. We don't actually say translation. It's more precise to say localization because it's about making the English software like WordPress work in another language like, let's say, Spanish. There are differences in Spanish. Like Spanish in Mexico is different than Spanish in Spain. So put another way, we can say that localization is like translation but with a cultural twist to it. It's not just about written words. It's also about things like symbols, units, date formats, thumb formats, or whether you drive on the left or the right side of the street. These things are all contained in this little word called local. So we're talking about localization and translation. We don't refer to the language itself. It's always about locals which contains the region and the cultural preferences. So with this settlement I want to explore a bit of WordPress' history in this area. WordPress has been internalized for many years now, I think at least 10 years, and over 50% of all WordPress websites are non-English. So this is a really important area for a project. And without this, it wouldn't be that big of a notch. So that's why it's so important to take other languages into account when you want your WordPress, when you want your software to be used around the globe. Internationalization was crucial for the popularity of WordPress because English is not the main languages in most countries, right? And as soon as WordPress added support for internationalization, it was quickly translated to German and Japanese and many more languages. But I think these two were first. One big accelerator for this global adoption is the translation platform available on translatedworkpress.org. This platform allows thousands of people to fully translate and fully localize to projects. So it's not just for WordPress, but also for plugins, for themes, and I think even the WordPress mobile apps can be localized on this platform. As Dominic mentioned in his talk, it's built on an open-source WordPress plugin called LogPress. LogPress allows setting up multiple projects and translating them to, I think almost 180 different locals, so basically almost every local there is, can even translate it to English, I think. And the good thing is WordPress.org, there's quite a community around this, with thousands of translation contributors and editors. So if you publish your WordPress plugin on WordPress.org, other people can join the project and translate it for you, which is really cool. And if you know the free translation editor called PoEdit, LogPress is basically like PoEdit, but in the browser. And it's 100% open-source and free. Yeah, in case you haven't heard of it, there are just the links, if you want to look them up. One thing, there was a direct benefit, a direct result of this translation platform was the introduction of language packs in WordPress. So language packs allow you in WordPress.org to ship translations independently of the software. That means, A, you don't have to model the translations with your plugin, B, when you install the plugin, so if you're in a dashboard, browse plugins, install it, WordPress automatically installs the needed translations for the plugin. And C, as soon as a new translation is available for your plugin, like someone fixed a tie bar or added missing translations, you can install it right away. You don't have to need for the next plugin update to install the translations. It's really cool. And a big improvement we made rather recently in WordPress Core is that individual users can choose their preferred language in the admin user profile. So you go select local in your user profile and you do so without affecting the language of the whole website. And when you add a new language, WordPress will automatically download and install the language pack from the translation of WordPress.org. Now that we have explored the role of internationalization in WordPress and the benefits of flagging packs, let's have a look at how these all come together for the benefit of WordPress plugin developers. So for this, we build a little plugin. For this example, I assume that we want to publish this plugin on WordPress.org, just like Jetpack or X-Men or thousands of others. And the most basic WordPress plugin consists of a single PHP file. It's super easy and this PHP file can be with everyone. And for internationalization, WordPress provides a couple of get-taps functions to make your plugin localizable. And if you want to dispute our plugin on WordPress.org, all we need in addition to that PHP file is a readme, which basically is documentation for the plugin. So in the end, the plugin's folder structure looks a bit like this. We have a folder called myPlugin, which contains the main plugin file, which we yielded into myPlugin PHP and the readme file. Here's a simplified version of that plugin file and it consists of some metadata like the main, the version, the description, the URL to the plugin. And at the bottom, just for the sake of this example, I have a single translation function. It's one of the get-taps function WordPress provides. In this case, the first argument is the text we want to translate and the second argument is the so-called text domain of the plugin. In here, this text domain is myPlugin again for WordPress.org. This needs to be the same as the folder named from before, but it makes it easier to make it a bit consistent there. And another detail is in the readme, we say that this plugin requires at least WordPress 4.6. You don't really have to worry about that too much, but this is the version where some changes were made to WordPress.org and to make things easier for the language packs. So, we have our little plugin. Now we can submit it to the WordPress.org plugin directory. When we do that, as soon as it gets approved and we upload our plugin, it is available on the WordPress.org again with myPlugin in the URL. So, myPlugin is in the folder name, it's the text domain, and it's also the URL of the plugin. And as soon as we upload our plugin, we can translate it. WordPress automatically finds the text from our plugin and we want to translate it into every language that we want. And of course, other users can do that as well. Now, as soon as we install our WordPress plugin on our website, WordPress will automatically install the needed translations. And when new translations are available, you can easily update them as well through the dashboard without having to update the plugin. There's nothing else we have to do. It just works. The plugin is fully translated. You can verify this by checking the languages folder inside WP content. When installing the plugin, you'll see that WordPress adds new files. For this example, it's the version of the plugin and they're downloaded to the folder. So, basically, we only have to do three steps. Write a plugin, publish it on WordPress.org, translate it. Rest just works. All between these steps, WordPress does everything else for you to handle the translation. What if you want to write a plugin that we don't want to publish on WordPress.org? It could be a private plugin for your website or maybe for a client and you don't want to publish anywhere. The thing is, things aren't getting a bit more complicated in this case. The first step is always today. You start by writing some PHP code and after that, you have to do some stuff. So, as I mentioned before, WordPress.org automatically finds all the texts that we want to translate in our plugin. Now we have to do this on our own. And this part is called string extract. So, we extract all the texts from our plugin that we want to translate. So, for example, this example plugin, all the things we can translate is the plugin name, the description, even the URL and the author information and, of course, the text at the bottom. These are all things that we can translate. And to do this extraction, there are few tools that can help us. The oldest and purpose most common is called make. That's the same tool that it's running on WordPress.org. It's used for blog press there. There are also helper scripts that make it easier to use it like brand scripts called brand.mpi.htl They also use make.com and you can also use PoEdit. The editor I mentioned before can do that as well. Plus you can do the translation as well. So, when we do the string extraction with one of these tools, we end up with a translation catalog again. It's called myplugin.plg and this file contains all the strings later translated. And since you're not using the WordPress.org translation tab form, this file is not added to WP content slash languages but it's at our plug-in folder. Of course, now we have to translate all these strings but we are not on WordPress.org so we can't use the translation tab from there. So we need a tool that can do this for us. You can either do it manually maybe but it doesn't work. So I think PoEdit is the most popular solution for this. When you translate the plug-in, for example, to German, you'll end up with the new PO and MO files containing the translations that WordPress can read. Again, these are part of the plug-in folder and not WP content. The problem is we can't just add these files and see what happens. We have to tell WordPress where these files are and to load them. So for this, we need a function called load-plug-text-domain. It basically loads all the translations from our language folder in the plug-in and loads them all into memory. And whenever WordPress finds a string from our plug-in with this text domain in my plug-in, it checks to see if translation is available. In summary, we have to do lots of manual things. We rather plug-in, we have to do the string extraction, we have to do manual translation. We don't benefit from the WordPress.org translator community. And also we have to manually load the translations because before that, it was done automatically. So let's compare these options side-by-side. Again, we can see that WordPress is able to do lots of heavy lifting for us in our plug-ins. It's a much more complicated process. We have to worry about string extraction. There's no translation community. We have to manually load the translations. And for WordPress.org plug-ins, we benefit from so-called just-in-time loading of translations. So WordPress only loads them when they are actually needed. It makes your website a little bit faster. And we thought this can't be right. This can't be solution. It's not something we want for our plug-ins. Having so many manual steps is not sustainable when you write dozens of private plug-ins for your clients. In order to solve this problem we came up with a solution called Traditore which is Italian for translator. And Traditore is basically WordPress.org for everyone. It allows us to have the same benefits for private plug-ins as for public ones. So to be a bit more precise it works like the WordPress.org translation platform for your own private projects. And having our own translation platform means we and our clients can easily translate all the websites all the plug-ins using the web interface as well. And it's also built on block press. So the same software that runs Translator WordPress.org is also used for Traditore. So when we decided to build this we tried to automate as much as possible. And right now it works like this. Wherever, whenever you push changes to the plug-in. So your plug-in is hosted on Github and whenever you make changes the code gets sent to Traditore and Traditore then does the string extraction that finds all the strings and sends them to block press. And after that you can just translate everything on the website and as soon as you change these, as soon as you make translations Traditore creates a language pack just like WordPress. And now when you install this plug-in that you built and translated almost a language pack from Traditore. And for a string extraction we found all the existing solutions to be very buggy and inefficient. Plus we couldn't use something like PoEdit for such an automated task. So that's why we decided to build our own using WPCLI which is the official command line tool for language-based WordPress. So this command makes it easier than ever to extract strings from a WordPress plugin or speed. All you have to do is to like WP, IHA and make a pop-file point it to the directory of your plug-in and optionally define the target file and it figures out everything else and you don't have to worry about anything. So in Traditore we use this WPCLI command to do the string extraction and send all the strings to an important tool WordPress. And we thought this is something that's not only useful for Traditore but almost every worker's developer needs this. So that's why we fully open-sorted everything under the WPCLI umbrella and now when you download WPCLI it's actually bundled this command. So if you're using the latest version of WPCLI you don't have to do anything this just works. So after we run this WPCLI command and import the strings into WordPress Traditore actually can notify you on Slack about the changes it made. This way you always know what your current state of your project is and when language packs are being built. So in this example I make some change to this plugin and it said hey we have 85 new strings and after I did some translations it generated new zip files and new language packs and it notified us again. So the last step we need is a way to tell workers hey I built this plugin and I use Traditore so instead of workers.org please look elsewhere for the translations. And for this we built a little help script to use it you just specify the plugin Slack and point it to the API of Traditore where you can find the language packs. If you need a visual representation of this all the websites now download things from either workers.org translation API there or from the Traditore where we and our clients update translations independently of our development cycle. So if you compare for again we now have workers.org and Traditore on the left side with the same benefits they're easy to use. We have a translation platform where we can collaborate with others and we benefit from workplaces just in time loading of translations. And everything is automated as possible of course you don't have to use it if you want to go the manual way for your private plugin everything is fine but I think Traditore is a good solution for that. And if you want to learn more about this whole workflow I actually wrote a blog post about it you can find it on our company blog and it goes a bit more into detail technical aspects of how everything works. And I'd also like to point out that everything we built to make this happen is open source and available on GitHub. This way you can run your own translation platform powered by WordPress. Feel free to check it out ask questions for kids, open issues create cool requests whatever you want. So what I've shown you so far is just the current state of the WordPress internalization landscape. There are still many things that we can and should change First of all I want to make Traditore even better Honestly, I've fully finished it worked really well but the next step is to fix some bugs makes it easier to use not only with GitHub projects but with GitLab or BitPocket and we'll also work on improving documentation for the plugin as well. The good thing is Traditore gives us a good idea of things that we can change elsewhere. So whenever we see fit we try to suggest these changes also to the WordPress org translation platform. Since both tools use Gloppress Underhood they're naturally very similar and share some of the same code base. So one thing we're currently looking at is bringing this WPCLI command I mentioned earlier to WordPress org as well to work so much better than make a pot and other solutions. Another big thing that's around the corner is JavaScript internationalization. So as we all know WordPress is getting a new editor called Bloomberg and the editor is entirely written in JavaScript which creates lots of new challenges for internationalization purposes. So we'll have to see how we can best adapt tooling to this new situation and make some changes to WordPress org so you as a plugin developer can use all the new things in your product as well. Alright, so I think there was lots of information to process so far I'll try to sum things up for a bit. So first I looked at the differences between internationalization and localization. Then I explained some of the efforts going into WordPress core to improve these areas and after that I compared the workflows for internationalizing and localizing those public and private plugins. So where we could rely on WordPress org to do all the heavy lifting for our public plugins we had to follow manual where lots of manual steps for our private plugins. This starts with string extraction and continues with translation and translation loading parts. After having something that just works there's a way more work for private projects. Also you don't benefit from the community of WordPress org. In order to fix this, we created a tool called Trageditoria which is essentially WordPress org for everyone. So it's a combination of WordPress and WPCLI to help make this happen and automate all the steps we had to really take before. It doesn't stop with Trageditoria though. There are lots of ways to further improve Trageditoria. We can also learn from these things and to help improve WordPress org translation and translation platform of WordPress org thanks to our learnings from Trageditoria. So a good example for this is JavaScript internationalization. Because we have this private platform we can rapidly iterate and find a solution that we can then work to work support. Because this is something that WordPress needs to figure out as a whole, as a community. Because at the end all projects can benefit from this. Alright, so with this I'm finishing my talk today. Thank you all for listening. Thank you. Please speak in Japanese. There's one more question. Okay, so this is about JavaScript internationalization for non-workers files. Okay. So what we have right now in the WPCLi script it extracts strings from JavaScript files that use the WordPress they use the same library as Gutenberg does where you have to save the underscore functions. This already works. If you're doing something else or want to translate something that's not a WordPress to do this or if you use a React component that's the translation but these are things that we still need to figure out. We don't have a fit for all solution for that yet. Unfortunately. I hope that answers your questions. Thank you. Any other questions? I have a question that truck Yes. Is there any screen shots or capture or working things that you can do? I don't have like a screen shot right now. I mean the tutorial works kind of in the background. Right? You just publish your changes from plugin to GitHub everything else. The only thing you see is slack notifications and the translation platform which is CloudPress which looks like a translated WordPress tutorial. It's the only point of interaction with the tutorial. It's like that kind of WordPress made it to the translation. Works in the shadows in the background. Thank you. Any other questions? That's it I think. Please give a big applause once more to Master. Thank you for your talk.


It's a great pleasure to be able, with Astrid Haas to co-chair this session on a theme that has been talked about for some time throughout the last two days, not to mention the 15 years of urban age work, which is we can talk about cities, how they change, but how we're going to pay for it, which is one big issue, so we'll come to that. I just wanted to say something as a connection between where we were in the last two hours in this room and where we are now, which is maybe we should rename the urban age as urban therapy, and in so far as to actually sit here and with like-minded colleagues, everyone on equal footing, and share our complexities and difficulties in a way that was witnessed before was I think important for all of us, and I just wanted to repeat one of the things said right at the beginning of this conference, which Anna and I and Philip have been talking about, which is all we can do in an event like this is offer a mirror on what is happening in your own context, and I thought that was a very powerful moment, and I hope we can continue in that spirit. So just with that reflection, I will pass on to Astrid, who will introduce the themes of the afternoon. Thank you. Great. Thanks, Ricky. Good afternoon, everyone. I didn't hear. In Uganda, we use this particularly after lunch so that we can make sure everyone is awake. So good afternoon, everyone. Excellent. Okay, so as Ricky has said and Vera said very aptly this morning, if we just reflect on the past days and on the presentations we've seen, housing, transport, services, these all need money, and the question is, where is this money going to come from? We've had different thoughts about it sort of peppered across different sessions, but this panel today is really going to dig deep into this question, and its importance was already reflected in the first keynote presentations. We saw that Africa is really still at the beginning of its urbanization path. These cities are going to explode, so even whatever deficit we have right now, that deficit is just going to keep growing, and aside from that, and I think in Christian's presentation yesterday on Kigali, he mentioned this very well, is that it's one side building for the city that is still to come, is the other side retrofitting the city that is already there. A characteristic of many African cities is that the people have come before the infrastructure could be built, and what does that mean? It means it's even more expensive to build that infrastructure. Evidence shows it's probably up to three times more expensive in places like Kampala, where we have very high compensation costs, it could be even more than that. So I was reflecting on the different presentations, as you can tell, and actually, Parks, who has very kindly joined our panel today, one thing that you said yesterday was very interesting to me. When you sort of listed the financing challenges, you started with how a city is going to raise their own source revenue. Many cities I work with, that's only sort of now coming to the forefront. It used to be the narrative was how are we going to get the national government to give us more money. I think the realization has come that that money is not going to be forthcoming very much. So now cities are starting to be more inward looking and saying, what is it that we can do ourselves? In this respect, I am going to make a gross generalization, which was I think Sue mentioned on her panel we shouldn't do, which is there's one thing that binds all African cities. In fact, there's one thing that binds African cities with cities everywhere else in the world. And that is, people don't like to pay taxes, but they want the services. And so the first part of this panel is going to start thinking about from a public sector officials perspective, how are we going to figure out, or how do we build that social contract with people? How do we raise money with inside our own countries and our own cities for this? And again, same caveat as Vernon, I am an economist. I like to simplify things in theory, this looks very easy. But in practice, the political economy of tax reform or any sort of finance reform is difficult. And for that reason, I'm very honored to be joined by two people who have managed to do this to levels that have been probably unprecedented in some senses. So Tunde from when he was governor of Lagos pretty much turned around sort of property tax in Lagos. And Jennifer Massisi, the executive director of the Kampala capital city authority who within five years just through reforms on tax administration managed to increase their own source revenue by over 180%. So Tunde is now in a national position. He's now minister of power, housing and works. And so he's now going to reflect from that perspective, from a far broader country perspective, what it means to have infrastructure investment in cities that will be followed by Jennifer who's going to now dig down into what it means actually as a city leader to raise these finances.


Hello all welcome to the session on types of indexing in database management system myself Rashmi Dixit. So let us begin the session learning outcome at the end of this session students will be able to explain different types of indexing. So what are the different types of indexing as we have seen in the last video primary index, secondary index and clustering index. Primary index is defined on an order data file the data file is ordered on a key field. The key field is generally the primary key of the relation. Secondary index, secondary index may be generated from a field which is a candidate key and has a unique value in every record or a non key with a duplicate value. And third one is clustering index, clustering index is defined on an ordered data file. The data file is ordered on a non key field. Now look at this diagram, this diagram gives you a glimpse of different types of indexing on which purpose. So primary index on an ordered file with key attribute that is a unique attribute. So ordered file, unordered file, ordered file the data is stored in a ordered manner or in a sorted manner on either key or non key attribute. Key attribute whenever the file we are performing indexing on a key attribute means unique value and in case of non key attribute there may be duplication of particular record. So whenever there is an ordered file with a key attribute primary index is preferable or we are going to use primary index, ordered file with non key attribute means duplicate records may be present at the time clustering index is beneficial and secondary index on an ordered file compulsory secondary index may be key or with a non key attribute. So remember one thing ordered file data is stored or on which you are applying indexing is in a ordered manner 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 or you can say that 5, 4, 3, 2, 1, unordered file 3, 9, 12, 6 that is there is no sequence or there is no ordering key 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 unique attribute and non key 3, 3, 2, 4, 5 there is a duplication of a particular record. So types of index primary, secondary and clustering remember this diagram so that you can get an idea where you are going to use which index. Now primary index is divided into two that is dense and sparse the definition is same no matter either you study in DA or data structure dense and sparse. So dense index record appear for every search key value in the file. So primary key sorry primary index with a dense property every record index record appear for every search key value in the file. So look at this diagram this particular now this is a instructor relation with ID, name, department and salary. So we are applying indexing on instructor ID now the search key is unique and the data is in ordered format. So naturally primary whenever record for every search key in index file we can say that dense indexing each and every primary key or each and every key appear here in a index file with pointer to that particular record. So this is dense index and now if you are going to apply dense index on a department name. So biology, computer science whatever the name of the department with pointer to that particular record having the same department whatever in the index file. So dense index record for every search key like it is a dense as compared to dense what happen in a sparse index file it contain index record for only some search key value. Applicable when record are sequentially ordered on search key index records are not created for every search key and index record here contain a search key and actual pointer to the data on the disk. Look at this diagram so as compared to dense where record for every search key here only the particular or some search key are selected in index file. Now find index record with the largest search key value which is less than key means if you want to find 15151 instructor record means instructor ID 15151. Now it will first go to 10101 then it will point to that particular record and its search in a sequential manner to find out the particular record with search key value 15151. So search the sequentially starting at the record to which the index record point. Now we will compare dense and sparse index. Now compared to dense indices sparse indexing require less space and less maintenance storing of all search key record and storing of a 3 to 4 search key record less space and less maintenance overhead for insertion and deletion less generally slower than dense index for locating a record. Now what is good tradeoff in sparse index? Sparse index with an index entry for every block in a file corresponding to least search key value in the block that is a main advantage of sparse index. Now secondary index index record point to a bucket that contain a pointer to all the actual record with that particular search key value. Now what is this? Look at this diagram. Now here the search key for your index is a salary. So it may be unique, it may be duplicate, it is unordered. Now that is one thing unordered. So search key here in index file and remember one thing index are always stored in a sorted or sequential manner. So rearranging of a salary it point to the bucket which point to the actual record. So 40000 it point to the bucket and from that bucket it point to the actual record where the record with a salary 40000 is present. So array to the record sorry pointer to the record through one bucket. Now look at here salary 80000 two records are there. So non key attribute is also there. So secondary index is performing on unordered file may be with a key attribute or non key attribute. Now the third sorry before clustering just take one question here which of the following is dense index primary cluster secondary and sparse. All of you student please pause your video and think for a while and try to give the answer to the particular question. So naturally secondary index here look at the diagram it is dense pointer for each and every search key. So what is the difference between primary and secondary index we will compare them within a couple of minutes. Indices offer substantial benefits when searching for a records ok. But updating indices imposes overhead on a database modification when a file is modified every index on a file must be updated. Sequential scan using a primary index is efficient but sequential scan using a secondary index is expensive. Each record access may fetch a new block from a disk and block fetch requires about 5 to 10 millisecond versus about 100 nanosecond for memory access. So when you are comparing order the primary index require the rows in a data block to be ordered on a index key while the secondary index does not have an impact on how the rows are actually organized in a data block. Key sorry ordered and non-order number of indices moreover there is a only one primary index while there can be multiple secondary index and duplicates when you are talking about duplicate in primary index there are no duplicate as we are performing in a key attribute but in a secondary index as we are may perform on a key or a non-key attribute. So there is a no surety about duplication of a record. So this is a reference thank you.


Hello and welcome to the session. In this session, we will learn about symmetry. Symmetry is quite a common term that we use in day-to-day life. When we see certain figures with evenly balanced proportions, we say that they are symmetrical figures. Let's consider the circle with a line dividing the circle into two halves. As you can see, these two halves of the circle are identical. So, these both are symmetrical figures and this line is said to be the line of symmetry. So, we have that a line that divides a figure into two identical parts is called the line of symmetry or we can also say an axis of symmetry. The two halves in this case are mirror images of each other. We know that a figure may have no line of symmetry, only one line of symmetry, two lines of symmetry or multiple lines of symmetry. Now, let's consider some examples for each. An example of a figure with no line of symmetry can be a scalene triangle. So, we have taken a scalene triangle and a line dividing this triangle into two parts. Now, as you can see that these two parts are not identical, so we see that this line is not the line of symmetry for this triangle. So, we say that the scalene triangle does not have a line of symmetry. Next, we have a figure with only one line of symmetry can be an isosceles triangle. This is an isosceles triangle. We have drawn a line dividing this figure into two parts. It's visible that these two parts are identical, so this line is the line of symmetry. Now, let's draw another line. When we draw this line, you can see that these two parts are not identical, hence this line is not the line of symmetry. Similarly, this third line is also not the line of symmetry as this does not divide the triangle into two identical parts. So, this isosceles triangle has only one line of symmetry. Next, a figure with two lines of symmetry is rectangle. This is a rectangle and we have drawn a line dividing this rectangle into two parts. Now, as you can see these two parts are identical, so we see that this line is the line of symmetry for this rectangle. We have drawn this horizontal line also. Now, this line also divides this rectangle into two equal parts, so this line can also be considered as the line of symmetry. So, we see that a rectangle has two lines of symmetry. Now, a figure with three lines of symmetry is equilateral triangle. This line divides this equilateral triangle into two equal parts, so this is a line of symmetry. This line also divides this triangle into two identical parts, so this is also a line of symmetry. This third line also divides the triangle into two identical parts, so this is also the line of symmetry. Hence, we have that equilateral triangle has three lines of symmetry. Now, let's discuss about reflection and symmetry. Line symmetry is closely related to mirror reflection. This is the picture showing the reflection of the letter m. This is the main object, this is the mirror and this is the image. As you can see in this, the object and its image are symmetrical with reference to the mirror line. We can also say that the image is the reflection of the object in the mirror line and as you can notice that there is no change in the lens and angles of the object and the image. When dealing with mirror reflection, we have to take into account the left-right changes in orientation. This completes the session. Hope you have understood the concept of symmetry, the lines of symmetry and reflection and symmetry.
