When you turn the tables on the narcissist When the situation has changed to the opposite of what it was Because now you have power You're now in control and the narcissist is forced to experience the same bad things That they caused you to experience It looked like you were down and out It looked like it was all over for you But then something happened And now you're in the dominant position and they're getting what they deserve Which is actually what tends to happen once the relationship is over It's just that many victims fall for the illusion They fall for what the narcissist is displaying to them They think they're riding off to the sunset. They're living their best life But it's not real.  They may lack empathy. They may not have any concerns for you But they know what they've done wrong They're shame-based people and that shame is constantly eaten away at them It's the reason why they're always miserable, but they're constantly trying to avoid reflecting on their shame By engaging in escapism by seeking distraction and relief from the unpleasant reality By seeking entertainment and that is what you're seeing when the relationship is over You're just witnessing their distraction Their form of self-medication It's like they're wearing a virtual reality headset Meanwhile, their life is falling apart and it never goes away Because they refuse to take accountability They refuse to confront reality So they're not really living their best life They're not really happy It's an illusion And that is why they're so bothered by your happiness and success Because theirs isn't real If a person is truly happy with themselves and their lives, they're going to be happy for you They're not going to be any bit so jealous of you because their cup is full They've already got what they want But narcissists have insatiable desires that can never be fulfilled. They can never be satisfied They're never grateful for anything they have And I'm sure you will remember that when they were with you Nothing you did was ever enough And they would love for you to believe that suddenly changed after they've left you But they're still the same and they're always going to be that way Which is why they're so sensitive to your happiness and success Which is why they're so envious and jealous They can't stand to see you doing well in life When the tables turn they will be plotting to bring you down because they feel threatened by your success It brings them back to reality It causes their reality to not make any sense Because you're the real deal You're genuine You're a good example of everything they strive to be You have all of the qualities that they want but they cannot appreciate or respect it Because they want it all for themselves They don't want to admire that in someone else It doesn't bring them positivity It reflects something negative back to them Because they're not you they don't have what you have They're like kids playing in the sandbox Promoting their creativity and imagination And pretending to be something great But when they see you it's a reality check They're reminded of their true state of things in the real world It causes them to consider the facts about their situation and not their opinions ideas or beliefs It makes them recognize the truth about their situation It clarifies and serves as a reminder of their reality by correcting their misconceptions It brings them back into the life of those around them. It smashes their hopes and dreams And that is a very uncomfortable experience for the narcissist It makes them feel irrelevant and inadequate and they will be utterly ruthless and determined to break anyone who threatens their false reality They will play the victim They will make people feel sympathy for them to enmesh themselves into every aspect of your life Even though you may have helped them you may have improved their lives They will still break you down and not feel any regret When you turn the tables on the narcissist to gain access into your life They may love bomb you or they will play the victim They will talk about you to other people behind your back They will turn your family and friends against you. They will start a smear campaign So that they can position themselves in your life and learn more information about you and when they finally break you down It makes them feel better about themselves. It makes them feel powerful They want to turn everyone against you because they see you as a threat Once you've moved on and become successful. It's not enough for them to betray you.  You became more successful than them You became more liked So they will do whatever it takes to break you down Because they fear that your success may expose them.

Who's freaking out? I'm not freaking out. I'm not freaking out because it's a playoffs. Who's freaking out? It's not me, dude I'm gonna need everyone Last game we clap cheeks in the AFC Championship game this week We head into the Super Bowl now. I need to say something first. So for one I'm not your wheel of mutt slave. Well, you know what? Maybe I am However I'm thinking we gotta slow down a little bit. I kind of got a little burnout You know, we posted like every day in December pretty much So here's what I think we got the Super Bowl today if I lose I get to keep the team that I have But I got to make it all the way back and I'm not trying to do that now if I win We're gonna reset this puppy and you guys are gonna vote on my four new team captains So maybe four of any player in the game those would be the new team captains and maybe I'll keep like One or two players from this squad, but I kind of want to start posting just like fun in real life stuff like As much as I know you guys a lot of you probably subscribe for wheel of nut You got to understand that I don't want to burn this series out is it's time for the Super Bowl the first time ever We'll be spinning the Super Bowl wheel. You will see that it's ridiculously like juiced It's going to be so much fun to spin the first spin on the Super Bowl wheel Please let's boss Blitz yo Yo Guess what I was just wearing. I was literally just wearing this. This is not a berry sander jersey This is a Dion Sanders Baseball jersey whenever when he played baseball the Blitz boss Dion Sanders is without a doubt still the best kick returner in this game. I know that sounds weird But oh my god, this card is nuts 95 overall Dion Sanders and not Earl Thomas. We just pulled I think he's gonna have to get demoted. I'm sorry Earl Thomas. Okay? Now. I love that the unsanest But I kind of want a new player. I want like an ultimate legend.  Oh Shit this one's actually like so different, but it's gonna be so helpful. Okay gauntlet boss I know exactly what we're getting dude.  It's time for the Super Bowl. I want this 95 overall John Randall have it This mate dude, I don't actually know if I'm recalling this correctly But is this the first time that I purchased a detackle for Wheel of Mutt like in all of these games that I play I don't think I ever purchased one I think I was just like pulled it in a pack and was like, oh sure This is better than the gold that I have in boys. It's time for the Super Bowl It's time. It's time for the Super Bowl I'm not sure what I'm gonna do if I win this Super Bowl yet, but make sure you're checking out Twitter You guys you don't have to follow me. It's not a huge deal if you don't have a Twitter But that's where I'm gonna do the polls for you guys to vote on my new team captains for this extra season We are hopping into the game right now It's Super Bowl time.  Yeah, by the way my last season I deseed in a game So you're not gonna see this Super Bowl stuff on the screen, but It's our Super Bowl. Don't get it twisted. All right, Dion Sanders. I was talking up how good of a return man You are so so There's a lot of cards still coming out and I think we can hit B for no no no He threw it low Russell Wilson not today, dude. All right, that's play action. I got this cover. Come on throw it throw it No, go get him. Go get him.  I know he wants to I knew it Okay, I got this covered over the middle he's gonna throw underneath I see a streak down there. Oh Okay, then wait, I got the pass off. Oh my god. That was so garbage. Okay. Here's what I'm thinking I'm gonna throw this to Calvin Johnson after waiting life. Ah shitty. Yep. Wait, I can still do it. Oh I'm throwing this ball. Oh my god. Oh wait. Okay. I'm the best. All right fourth and ten I kind of want to hit George Kittle over the middle Is he there? No, but is he there? I'm 0 for 5 with an interception.  Yeah, that's my fault.  I'm on John Randall. No Second and ten not a run play again. He's gonna Okay, Ricky Williams chill out Going to the pass 33 no inside zone want something short go get him. Go get him Let's go and he steps out of bombs on accident I can't really tell 413. That's a field goal great defense However, my offense is like so abysmal that it should be illegal 3-0 we're gonna start out with a nice little inside zone to bury Sanders and we're gonna take four yards off of it Or more or more or more I'll take nine Oh, but that's there wait is it can he We're gonna hit one of these rocks. Yes. Oh my god Calvin Johnson. Yes And the joke First and ten I'm on Jamal Adams and why why would I ever do that? I'm just asking for him to do exactly that first and ten he goes motion. Yeah, I did go to Rick Williams That's wrong. I don't know if he's trying to chew this clock and then get a touchdown We've been super good about keeping him out of touchdown range Like I really feel like we could stop him again on a touchdown. Okay. Oh, it's a play-action clown is in there Oh my god, did he really? The on I third an interest. He might actually just go to the run play here. Yes. Yes. Yes We should be straight. Okay Terrible fourth and one you're gonna loft L Hold your L my friend first and ten. All right, I'll see if Calvin Johnson can can do another little Calvin Johnson here Oh, that's open. Oh, that's totally open. He hangs onto it. I Think juju was but that was just so dumb cuz Calvin Johnson was wide open But now it's not looking so dumb Russell had a lot of yards do so I don't know He quit my season just culminated with a garbage rage quit I am not satisfied even in the slightest Oh, yeah, by the way, I didn't spin like the challenge wheel because there's no purpose since I'm resetting the team anyway So don't worry about that. I'll update you boys when we get this new season in the books boys I'm honestly frustrated Because that game was not the stunner that I wanted to close the season off on But hey, sometimes it happens in Super Bowl as you guys remember that Bronco Seahawks Super Bowl They won them by like Seahawks won by like 42 for something. Hey, sometimes you get a boring Super Bowl It's just kind of like, you know, the Rams Patriots Ending the year ending the year ending this season before we go into the final season We got Tyreek Russell Wilson Barry Sanders juju Calvin Johnson a great offensive line George Kittle Evan Engel Keekley van der Esch Clowney Wesley Woodard Sean Taylor Jamal Adams Dion Kalil Mack John Randall Hunter Rande Barber Jimmy Smith It is an unbelievable team at 94 overall. Now. I don't know what rules I'm gonna do What I most likely will do is I'm gonna keep two players I'll keep two players that are on the team right now I definitely want to I think I definitely want to keep this cool Mac because he's been playing just like out of his mind So I feel like I I'm obligated to keep that and then I want to keep mega John, but I also want to keep Tyreek What would this series be without Tyreek? Also, didn't Tyreek just like get a domestic abuse case or something. Maybe I shouldn't keep on my team Next time you see this team it will be rewiped to what the start of a wheel of mutt looks like and Then additionally, I'm gonna have you guys vote on captain's. I think what I'm gonna do is I'm gonna keep two from this team I'm have you guys vote on three captains About five players and then we'll be just wiped gentlemen. That's it for this episode Stay tuned on Twitter. You guys will determine the fate of the rest of my team That's it for now Thanks for watching always ladies and gentlemen. I love you. Peace out


Hi everyone, I'm Becky Swan, Athletic Therapist for the Vancouver Police Department. You may recognize me from videos such as the importance of keeping the weight in the yellow or green. Today we're going to talk about push tips. Train your triceps. Due to the grip position, the push uses your triceps more than your chest. Switch your bench press to a narrow bench press. The best exercise or the push is the hover plank. Start in a push-up position, hands four inches apart, lower your body until you are approximately six inches from the ground. Hold for 30 seconds. If the hover plank is too easy, put your hands on a medicine ball or a wobble board. Once you're down in the hover position, pivot around the ball with your feet for 180 degrees. Do this for six arcs. Time to practice those tricep push-ups. Do three sets, going to your max rep count. Start on an incline if you cannot do them on the floor. Clanks are very important. This should be a regular part of your program from the start. Keep your body straight. Do not let your bum drop up or lower down. Hold as long as you can. Thanks for stopping into this training session. Remember you have full control over this part of the application process. You train smart, you'll perform better. I look forward to seeing you on test day.


We just made this witch's broom signpost in about an hour, and we'll show you how we did it right now What is up a welcome back do like to do a builder to make it so do we and we have a new video Each week this week and get on your brooms and ride because our front porch decor for Halloween is taking off We're starting our fall season We're gonna start making all kinds of fun fall projects, and we're starting with a Halloween project Halloween is our favorite Project or crafting or just season. It's our favorite season. It is it is we love to decorate our house for Halloween Out we have a giant spider that takes up like the whole roof that overlooks Yes, yes, we've we've won a house decorating contest a time or two And so it's always fun to just add more stuff out there in our front porch We have a room filled or just dedicated a closet. Yes. Well, it is like a room. It's a walk-in closet Yes to the brim with Halloween decorations. So why not add just one more? I was in the store the other day and already have seen some Halloween things out and I saw this cute little broom Standard was like a witch's broom, but a witch's sign. We've done something similar in the past for fall So I thought flimsy though look flimsy Well, oh you mean when we did it ourselves like back in the day The one in the store looked flimsy. Yeah, it definitely did it definitely did So I that inspired us to make our own version of this which is going to be taller bigger better Stronger scarier So that's what we're gonna make a standing witch's broom Street time street Ports gonna have it's gonna have some air. Oh, yeah, I guess yeah signpost signpost. There you go Step one we're gonna gather all of our supplies. We need a one by two But only 52 inches of one and you'll use our witch's broom signpost kit Which we've just put in our store. So it's a new kit for the fall We need some paints some wood glue some three-quarter inch brad nails and then We purchased a little package of this Raffia at Michaels that we'll use to Cover the stand and make the bottom of the broom. Yeah, make it usable Step two We're gonna make all over cut. It's just one cut one by two down to a broom size or 52 inches Do you think how you brought that prop just for this little shot? What am I doing safety first Kim safety first Garrett now we paint we are we're gonna paint all of our little pieces We have all of our words and all of our little backers Now we're just gonna paint them all and we're gonna paint our one by two. What colors are one by two gonna be dark brown Kathy All right, we're gonna be using some exterior house paint We love our country chic paints, but it's a chalk paint and take some sealing this already has exterior sealant in it And there's no sealing to be done. No spray that has to be done after the fact. It's gonna be outside It's gonna be getting all the weather all those trick-or-treaters. These little rollers are great They'll paint in minutes a roll of this blue painters tape is a great tool to have if you're doing any of these little DIY kits you'll put this blue tape face up sticky side up You'll put your little pieces on here and then you can paint right over them And they never walk away while you're trying to paint them You don't have to try to hold them and get paint all over your fingers You can order any of our kits with or without the paint kit to go along with it all the colors will come with it Step four a time to assemble it We're gonna start by assembling all of our little pieces like the witch's hat and all little And we're gonna use this star bond thick it's the thick stuff really holds He seems to be adamant that he wants to use the thick stuff I love the thick stuff, but it doesn't have to be can use the blue version. It works just as well Everything has score marks so we know exactly where they go and we're gonna glue inside the score marks Instead of trying to glue all of our little pieces and move them to the signpost You might drip along the way and my little glue tip is do little dots You can do little glue dipping dots here and that will keep it nice and neat You don't have to be as precise as old Garrett over there And you want to push each letter in because if you just set it on top of that glue It'll float away. It'll float. That's right.  Yeah, my witch's hat So good. Yeah. Yeah Now we're gonna add all of our little sign pieces the hat and the spider and everything With a little bit of wood glue and a three-quarter inch bread the nail not the guy We're gonna start 15 inches from the bottom and just working our way up, right? Yeah, the rest of it's kind of just eyeballing it. I'm gonna try to place a nail in an inconspicuous place on each side Now we're gonna attach the base. This base comes in the kit. It just slides together You go it's got a little base. I think we can make it permanent by putting some gorilla glue in there Yeah, yeah, you could easily add some glue and then the base wouldn't fall off when you move it Yeah, but we made it extra sturdy feet. So hopefully it won't fall over too easily I mean, I guess if it gets crazy windy, it'll fall over, but Step five and now we add the accents. We're gonna add a bow using some zip ties and this hay It's Raffia Raffia. I got the large pack. It comes folded in a Trifold three pieces. Yeah, I've not done this before Look, I'm like Raffia Machio Okay, here's what I think I'm going to do. I think we're gonna the plan Is we're gonna fold this in half. I'm gonna do some cleanup here in a minute. Mm-hmm I'll get I'll go doubles it tie on this and then I want to just kind of wrap it around the pole a little bit Yeah, uh-huh. Yeah Picking up what you're putting down There you go, look at that Whoa How tight do you want it? Yeah, I'll trim these off So I have two zip ties, two large zip ties together. Double zip and give the old double zip Yeah, so Well, I'll make the bow if you want to trim it. It's too long. I don't think it needs all that Yeah, I'll give a little trim. You can make the bow Wait, I don't think you need the little one in there.  Oh You're gonna loop it through the Raffia. Yeah, okay. Yeah See what I can do here Who are you gonna work your magic? Just hopefully be I'll just take it right down in there. Yeah, that worked Did you get it? Oh, you got it Wait breaking we're adding some lights Sorry, that's my last little thing.  Yeah I thought it was super easy. Yes, especially with the feet that we did like we did There was no like screwing or trying to figure out how to get it to stand You think the this little thing here looks like a broomstick Or does it should it be thicker? I think it should be like Like he wants to be crooked crooked. Yeah crooked easy if it were crooked So this little one by two is perfect and just glue these little pieces on you don't have to have the nailer You can just glue it with some of that gorilla glue Just let it set let it set and dry You might have to chip away some of that puffiness A Big thanks to all of our patrons that we love you guys. Thank you. We're having a patron zoom call next Wednesday, right? I can't wait get your questions ready. I will answer anything ask me anything. That's it not Kim. No, she's very guarded She is she can't keep a secret to save my life Well, we are about out of time So if you're not gonna join us for the patron after show, we will see you next week Well, we'll do it build it and make it again. Actually. We also do test cut Tuesdays Can't do it with the base with the base Because we haven't really gotten our shots yet. Oh, yeah That's scary Yeah, yeah So cute


What's up everybody Jason and for jazby's case base calm 21 22 tops you away for champions league Merlin chrome. Soccer just sold out 12 box case break pick a teams number eight and Again guys all-card ship full hobby case what happened to my But here we go Yeah, little characters. That means you want that from a team random. We had a little three team team random or a pack filler I should say Let me actually quickly Scan this out all right, so I'm most likely ripped six boxes like I usually will do and then We'll go through the six and then we'll go to the next six after that So let's rip open these here, and then we'll go through the hits after that There's the match ball Do that up there? Yes, Steve. Thank you buddy. It's not gonna break till probably after eight o'clock Pacific This breaks gonna take me a little over an hour and then take a little quick dinner break so Before it gets too late, so it's already on the schedule It's just not gonna happen for a little bit But in the meantime, it's just perfect time to try to potentially sell other breaks so we can add to the schedule like the chronicles And maybe do some more leaf metal Love to get that hockey mixer going. I know it's pricey, but You know you do get three random teams, so it wouldn't be as pricey if you didn't get three random teams probably like a 33 You know 30 $40 break if it was just random teams or actually a little bit more probably 50 bucks I don't need a break Rex, but I also have to eat with my wife. I think you know how that goes If I missed make or miss lunch Not a good night as best as she's just going to drive and pick it up, so I Think you guys can wait I might actually mean if I do this in like good time I might be able to do all the random number blocks before I leave Before I go eat really quick after this up Depending on how what time I fit if I can finish this by like 715 then I can quickly set up the random number blocks do them number blocks and then We'll break it right away You could Mike just three team three teams a Three teams of course is this a little bit Ten spots is easier to sell than potentially 15 or 30 plus, you know I Think that's why I think went that route, but we could change it up Maybe it's like a two-round teams break. I Can check it out and see I Don't know how much cheaper. It'll make it. Let's see make you like a hundred and thirty a spot 133 Nice Bobby. Yeah, the 17 team combo is not bad actually They end up getting the majority of the hits and there are some pretty good clubs in there Yeah, a lot of potential for sure first six boxes. Here we go by the for SSC Sydney right bigger camo vinga Rice kdb and they got Raheem Sterling 52 out of 99 look a Mulderick Curtis Jones Gabby L.A. Matazo and nice Min Sun autograph for Tottenham, which is going to Jung That's number 23 at 99. You got Joseph for Munich to 250 go folding in Bap a and wow killing in Bap a red One of five for PSG.

Wow to Gabby's in the same box What is going on here? 116 out of 199 and a Memphis depay to 225 Yeah, we don't even got the autograph here, right? Lionel Messi Wait, did we not get do we get the autograph? No, I don't think this one had an auto Unless I skipped over it. Oh, that's right. The match ball was the auto. You're right. That's right We'll save that we'll save that for the for the end of these six boxes. That's right Thank you for reminding me. I totally forgot about the match ball. All right. Let's go to the next box Great two boxes though to start us off. We got Dominic there for life's sake. It's a nice blue three out of 75 Sonali Cristiano Ronaldo Brandon Aronson Then we got a Denbelly 18 out of 99 for Celtic FC, which I believe is part of the combo teams Joseph, I was going to fold over or something And then we got a Alejandro Balvin I didn't even notice you said about asking you to serve a seat. That's right We have Ilias We're about to pull fire in our guys something's going on with our PCH I would I haven't pulled a match ball that's been pretty significant or any numbered match balls. I Mean the way this case is going it could be a very big match ball, right? All right. We go next box The pay to 150 Suso Giovanni Reina Vinny Jr. Gavi Borrelli we got a Shola Manchester United color To 189 Okay Cristiano Ronaldo Cocoa Locatelli and Then we got a Harvey Barnes for Lester City with a Runkle. We got a Victor Austin M now two more boxes here, and then we'll go to the next six about a gold ageless insert That is 21 out of 50 And for Rangers football club must be a combo probably what a Pizzle Pizzle Graven birch Alfonso Davies Cole Palmer win a orange for Manchester United Zidane That is 23 out of 25 Manchester United that's going to Rick Thomas got that in a team a little pack filler Even there's plastic stuck in there Little plastic for SSC Long their staid being scarlet.

We'll go through the match ball, and then we'll go to the next six Nicolo for Roma 275 Messi Bob and surge Savick to 150 is the auto and a ballo Diabella for who an entus nice 12 out of 50. I Think who an entus is part of that 17 team, right? Muhammad Salah Elliott Matazo to 250 And we got a Cameron Carter vickers for Celtic FC another one there gold to 50 very nice, Bobby Let's go to the match well.  I'll put that right over here to the side Well, my first case that I did here of Merlin did have two and Then the next couple cases I had like one one one, and then I think I had one where we didn't get any match balls Which is unfortunate? Hey, what's up? Okay, yeah, I mean I wonder I don't know if you ever I don't think you said it and I was just tripping out right now That's any talking to everyone left That was a match ball for a second, but two of them got stuck good for him Rex. I think they try to do some negotiating and He just said no, I'm good I'm gonna hold on to it. I Think pools also came out and said that He doesn't care if he gets back the ball Of course, if there's something they can work out, he'll be happy to do it But he says souvenirs are for the fans, you know, so I don't really it doesn't matter to me If I get the ball back now if I can and we can work something out great But I don't think he's gonna be like he's not like it's mine It's entitled to me and I'm gonna try to work it out and give whatever this fan wants so for for the fan, I mean He wants to capitalize on his his His baseball pools he probably puts it out in an auction house and let some superfan want to buy it But no, I mean good for him. I Mean, I don't know how much that baseball to go for but it's got to be Probably still life-changing in the sense. You have to assume it probably still goes for a Couple thousand dollars or a couple hundred thousand. You never know I don't see a problem keep fans keep the ball if they don't feel like they're getting offered fairly Oh, we do have another match ball. Nice Well, honestly Rex, I think who holds being Latino and probably coming from where he was coming where he grew up probably is like bro Don't be wrong. I'd love this baseball, but I'm not gonna. I'm not gonna drop all this money down Potentially just to get it back, you know They let somebody else drop that money, you know, he probably doesn't think of it as it's even worth it. You know what I mean? probably could do so much more Good things in the world with that money rather than paying someone for a baseball You know what I mean? So it's like I get why pools is like that, you know and yeah I mean, I think that's what people are saying too is like 700 ball would be awesome But his last homerun ball is probably gonna be worth more than that at the end of the day For some people. Yeah, I could do what I can do with $200,000 Whatever it is. I can do something good in the world with that money rather than pay someone for it vaccines Vinnie jr. Very nice one there Riyal Madrid that's going to Matthew Wood 27 out of 75 Romelu For Chelsea That's going to 199 Tomas Muller Yeah, the first case they had two match balls. I did get two Renaissance as well So probably have another Renaissance Mateo Casina for Adilanta Jordan Sancho from Manchester United to 150 Karim Benzema Jude What's the thing someone's all like now that he's a 700 he's at peace, but let's just say he goes on a crazy tear Maybe maybe hit seven home runs, you know out of the last 14 games and he's only like seven away from from breaking the babes the babes record like a lot of people think he's at peace now and Doesn't matter where it ends, but oh man. You're doing you're pretty close to to Getting to 714. I mean He looks great I feel like he could hit another X amount of home runs next year if he decided to come back But I I think he's at peace up for what he's for his retirement, you know That's just so crazy Goki For athletic oh 1215 Joe Ballerina Phil Folden Jude Ballingham for Dortmund 299 and we got a Jonas Martin first aid David Mason Sunny Perkins Ranin Lodi all of us up or skip Mason else Good Jack Raelish another Jonas Martin. You got Trevor 225 Alessandro, who's an Oli where he'm Sterling Erlen Halla and Luca Susick For Salzburg to 275 and so feign for Monaco Anthony, I believe is for that one Virgil Liverpool and another Luca 21 out of 99 this time. All right two more boxes guys Verizon Bala That ball for Hubernethis and Nick Gonzalez or Nico Gonzalez for Barca 99 and 99 That's the nice when they're surging Sovic That's a blue to 75 give it a lava. That's nice, man You definitely put in the work and you definitely Like I said get some nice parts from this man. Congrats again. All right last box here guys. Good luck So the autograph should be the match ball and a Harry Kane renaissance and this one actually looks like it might be numbered Actually, no Why does that look green at the bottom? The other one wasn't green. I guess I guess it's a little different I doesn't look more green nice one there for Tottenham a Lot racks probably there's a lot of people that speed on PCH man Vandersen Monaco to 150 and a gold my wrong for Monaco nice color right there eight of 50 and Cesco for Salzburg Robert Rundle check. Oh, is it a big hit nice? All right, let's see who the match ball is. Good luck So very solid case here guys.

Thank you very much. It's an honor for Nancy and me to welcome you to the White House. And at this point it's my job to say a few words about... Think of a gentleman who in his later life is the only living survivor of the Johnstown flood. And when his time came to meet his maker, he went to heaven. But in his later years he had been on the mash potato circuit quite busily in demand as a speaker and lecturer to tell about these experiences with the flood. St. Peter said to him, you know, when newcomers are up here there are a lot of people that would like to hear about things that have been happening down below and since their departure and you haven't... Oh, he said yes and told him about his experience and yes, he'd be very happy to speak. So they gathered them and St. Peter brought him over there, introduced him very graciously and then as he stepped back from the podium and the gentleman, the newcomer, stepped up he whispered to him, that man in the aisle seat second row is named Noah. Well, I may not be able to tell you much about volunteerism that you don't already know but it's appropriate for us to gather today in a spirit of celebration. Reflect upon the goodness of the American people and their willingness to give each other a helping hand. The spirit of volunteerism is deeply ingrained in us as a nation. Indeed, when asked by pollsters, most Americans state their belief that no matter how big government gets and no matter how many services it provides it can never take the place of volunteers. In other words, the American people understand that there are no substitutes for gifts of service given from the heart. In the past few years, moreover, we've witnessed an unprecedented outpouring of the volunteer spirit a reassertion of goodwill and neighborliness. Last year alone, individuals, corporations, bequests and foundations gave nearly 80 billion dollars to good causes and that is an all-time record high in our country. According to polls, and I know this includes people in this room some 92 million Americans, more than a third of our entire population perform volunteer work year in and year out. And I just have to believe that we're entitled to feel pretty good about that. You can see that these volunteer efforts, these private sector initiatives, all around. Hands across America last week represented a dramatic national effort to help the poor and homeless who live in our midst. Just Say No is a largely volunteer organization teaching children around the world to say no to drugs. And a week and a half ago, Nancy hosted a Just Say No rally here at the White House. It was one of those small affairs that she liked so much. There couldn't have been more than 2,300 kids here. But although Just Say No requires school officials, teachers and especially parents to give up a great deal of their time, Nancy told me that everyone that she spoke to at the rally was convinced that it was not only worth it, but of vital importance for the future. Then there are the volunteer efforts in which each of you is involved. You're champion givers, all of you. People of heart and selflessness, examples for the entire nation. I don't want to, you know, just looking at that note there, I've been scared to death until I finally got it out. How easy it would have been to just glance down and then say selfishness, instead of selflessness. But I don't want to go into what each of you has done before we present the awards. But I am, if you don't mind eager to say a word to Mr. and Mrs. Gilbert Lake. The lakes operate an American Red Cross Mobile Administrative Supply Unit. It's an 18-wheel tractor trailer. Last year they spent 126 days away from home assisting with disaster relief. And I had to tell that I just can't resist because I just want to say, keep on truckin'. But all of you have our deepest thanks and admiration. I can think of nothing finer to say about our country than that it has produced men and women like you, true heroes of the heart. God bless you. And now, if Governor Romney and Donna Alvarado, she is Director of Action and he is Chairman of the Board of Volunteer. And if they will come up here and assist my roommate and me in handing out the medals. Mr. President, it has been a year since you have appointed me as Director of Action, the Federal Volunteer Agency.  And I have had the opportunity to visit communities across America. I am pleased to tell you that your vision of Americans, helping Americans to make our communities better places to live for every citizen, is truly a reality. The people that we are honoring here today began with that vision, many of them sitting at their kitchen tables with just an idea that they thought that they could get off the ground. And in many cases it was sheer determination and a determination to overcome all obstacles in order to achieve that vision. And I know that their determination and their success is in large measure due to the vision that you have given all of us in your leadership in believing in the spirit of volunteerism in this country. I am very pleased that Mrs. Reagan was able to join us because as I travel around communities, I hear from so many different groups how they became interested in working to combat the terrible problems of drug abuse, working with runaway children, working with foster grandparents because of your leadership and your commitment to these programs. It is a great honor to present the 1986 recipients of the President's Volunteer Action Awards. 19 individuals, organizations and corporations who are carrying out your vision in their communities and they are here representing only a small part of what is happening in America today in the field of volunteerism. I would ask for the 1986 award recipients to please step forward at this time. The first award recipient is the Oregon Shakespearean Festival Association from Ashland, Oregon.

In 1985, Security Pacific employees volunteered in the company's 630 offices in assisting over 300 community organizations in programs as diverse as providing job skills training, assisting in adoptive school programs, and volunteering through the Secura Team effort, which involves over 3,000 employees in short-term community projects. Accepting the award, Gail Jasso, Vice President for Community Relations. Mr. President, I think you can see that your goal of involving the private sector, the federal government, the corporations across America, and individual private citizens is truly making its mark. We thank you all for being here on behalf of President and Mrs. Reagan, and this concludes today's ceremony. Thank you very much.


That's a great question, and the subject that you and I have chosen for a talk today is Britain in Europe the way ahead. Now it's a subject which is a fairly challenging one, not just because everything to do with policy towards Europe is now highly contentious in my own country, a'r ddweud o'r ffordd o'r ffordd o'r ffordd, sy'n gyfnodd y ffodol o'r union ymlaen, ac oherwydd y Prifysgol Brytyn yn ymlaen. Ac mae'n gwybod ddod o'r ffordd yn y chyfnodd Cwntinent. Mae'r ffordd yn ychydig ar y chyfnodd, ac mae'n gwybod yn Brytyn. Will the Eurozone survive with its present membership, adding to that membership from time to time with other member states, as other member states, most recently of course at the beginning of this year, Latvia, qualify to join? Will the greater economic integration that the survival of the Eurozone undoubtedly needs be agreed? Will it require no more than action within the present treaties, together with perhaps some modest tweaks in their provisions, as has been the case so far? Or will it require some much more fundamental, more wide-ranging revision of the treaties? Most recently, what will be the outcome of the German Constitutional Court's referral of the European Central Bank's OTM scheme to the European Court of Justice? And what will be the consequences of the highly probable, steep increase in the size of the present vote for anti-Euro and in some cases anti-EU parties in this May's European Parliament elections? Will the sort of reforms the European Union certainly needs, push it in a more federalist direction, or will they be accomplished largely within the existing treaties? Will it prove possible to make a reality of the principle of subsidiarity, which provides that the Union should only act when action at a national or regional level cannot achieve the objectives pursued in the legislation? Will national parliaments gain a greater say in the shaping of European Union policy? Now that's a huge list of questions, and all those and many more pretty fundamental questions are in the air, but they are as yet unsettled. And the answers to them will have important implications for Britain's own debate and its efforts to shape its future relationship within the Union or conceivably outside it. Now the fog on our side of the channel is every bit as thick and the list of so far unanswered questions every bit as daunting. Will there indeed, as David Cameron wishes, be an in-out referendum in 2017? Or will such a referendum only take place as the law currently provides and as the leader of the opposition envisages, if and when there is a significant transfer of powers to Brussels, which the government of the day is ready to accept? What kind of approach to European policy will whatever British government takes office after the 2015 general election adopt? Will it seek to promote a positive reform agenda for the European Union as a whole? Or will it seek to repatriate to the UK alone a list of powers currently exercised at EU level? Will it promote reforms and changes within the existing treaty provisions? Or will it seek treaty changes which would require not only the agreement of all the other member states, but ratification by them in some cases necessitating a referendum? Now the answer to those questions, and that's the second list of questions, will be fundamental to the prospects of success and thus to the chances of Britain's membership emerging from the period ahead strengthened or conceivably brought to an end. Now let's look first at the possible answers to the wider European list of questions. We should have no illusions about where most countries' priorities will lie. That will be ensuring up the structures of the Eurozone and protecting it against a recurrence of the crises of the last few years. And that priority is one which I would suggest Britain should not in its own interest seek to challenge. The consequences of a breakup of the Eurozone would be seriously damaging for the British economy and it is a delusion to suppose that that could occur without collateral damage to the single market whose preservation and indeed whose completion is so fundamentally in Britain's interest. It will naturally be important to ensure that those outside the Eurozone do not get marginalised in decision making on single market issues and the process of achieving that has begun in the context of the negotiations over banking union. The European Union has, after all, a good deal of experience in operating what is called variable geometry over Euro membership itself, over Schengen, over Justice and Home Affairs legislation. And it should be possible to achieve an extension of that approach to these areas of economic integration. And today's article in the Financial Times by Wolfgang Scheuble and George Osborne is an encouraging orcury in that respect. But it will be more easily done if Britain does not appear to question the survivability of the Eurozone and if it enlists the support of the Commission whose interest also will be in the integrity of the single market and the autonomy of the decision making capacity of the EU as a whole. Now it's certainly too soon to predict with any precision the outcome of the European Parliament elections in May and the consequences of that outcome. But it is high time that we faced up to the probability of a larger than ever before protest vote in many member states for an array of parties ranging from the clearly neo-fascist to the more straightforwardly populist nationalists. That will be a shock to the system if and when it comes. It may not, however, make that much of a difference to the decision making processes of the European Parliament itself since it could well result in my view is likely to result in even closer cooperation and consensus building between the three main party groups, the Christian Democrats, the Socialists and the Liberals. If it does that, the Conservative members from my own country, the only one of our three main parties not belonging to one of those groups, will need to consider carefully again their links with those groups or risk being further marginalised and finding themselves in some pretty unsavory company. A large protest vote is likely to concentrate the minds of the 28 Governments who make up the council and who have to agree to and obtain national ratification for any treaty changes. It would, I think, be reasonable to suppose that such developments would make them more supportive of reform that does not require treaty change, more conscious of the difficulties of ratifying treaty change and more interested in ensuring that their national parliaments play a larger role in shaping European legislation in the future. Now, how will this all affect the debate within the European Union on whether to pursue what I would describe as a policy-based reform agenda or an institution-based one, or indeed over whether or not a reform is needed at all? Well, that last option is reform needed at all can perhaps be rapidly dismissed. Not only can no organisation like the European Union afford simply to stand still, least of all in the face of the many challenges it's up against, but the survival of the eurozone is really incompatible with such a status quo policy. As to the main choice between an institutional approach or a policy-based approach, there is certainly a huge policy-based agenda out there waiting for decisive action, completing the single market, particularly in services and energy, building a digital level playing field, pushing ahead with enlargement in the Balkans and beyond, promoting freer and fairer world trade, both through bilateral agreements such as those being negotiated with the US, Canada, Japan and India and through a revival of the World Trade Organization, finding more effective responses to the challenge of climate change, making the common foreign and security policy work better, and here the gauntlet thrown down by Russia over the Crimea and the future of Ukraine makes, represents a major challenge. All those and finding ways of cooperating on defence in an era of austerity budgets and one where the US is expecting Europe to take more of the burden in its own neighbourhood. All those are, as you can see, a huge but perfectly coherent and I would argue perfectly doable agenda if the political will is there to do it. Now much of that agenda is essential if Europe is to remain competitive and flexible in the world we face. That means it is essential to the prosperity of both eurozone and non eurozone countries alike and certainly part of any viable eurozone policy for survival and prosperity. Now an institution based agenda is not without its powerful supporters, but they seem to me at least to be swimming a bit against the current of the times. Not only have there been in my view just too many institution based packages since the single European Act and the Maistricht Treaty laid some of the main foundations of the present variable geometry union that we have, but the appetite for passing more decision making powers to Brussels is on the way and the contradiction between that and paying proper respect to the treaty based principles of subsidiarity and proportionality is evident. No doubt the debate on those two broad choices at future European councils where these matters will be decided will be lively. Britain surely needs to be a constructive part of that debate, not standing on the sidelines merely asking for more British exceptionalism. Now I make no apology for turning back in conclusion to Britain's role in all this. Whoever forms a government after the 2015 elections will need to take proper account of the views and priorities of the 27 other member states without whom nothing can be agreed. If we are not to risk simply embarking on negotiations which are little more than a prelude to exit, an approach which I fear would gladden the heart of many euro skeptics, but not one I would suggest that is consistent with Britain's fundamental national interests. To have any chance of success, the British government of that day will need a positive policy based reform agenda of its own which addresses the challenges confronting the European Union as a whole rather than one which merely seeks to garner the support of the Euro skeptic press and Euro skeptic backbenchers in London. That does not mean for one moment that Britain should be shy of pressing for example for reform of the working time directive or indeed of any other piece of European legislation which we believe is having aberrant results. It does not mean that we should not be trying to make the practice of subsidiarity more effective for example by getting the commission to agree to a longer time limits for submitting reasoned opinions and to withdraw and to withdrawing and rethinking any proposal which attracts the yellow card of one third of the parliamentary chambers of the Member States. It does not mean that we should eschew making special arrangements for the UK in a piece of new legislation coming forward if that can be justified by evidence not just by ideological assertion. But we should be cautious indeed about heading down any road that requires treaty change for it to be implemented and we should stop tilting at windmills such as the treaty's preambler reference to an ever closer union. For one thing and I notice that most people who wax indignant about this phrase haven't taken the trouble to read the treaty before they did so for one thing what it calls for in the preamble to the original treaty was an ever closer union among the peoples of Europe, not their governments. For another it has never been and could never be a legal base for decision making. That is not what preambles are for. Now you will gather from this that I am less than convinced of the case for holding an inner referendum at a fixed date in the future which owes more to the vagaries and pressures of Britain's own electoral timetable than it does to any wider European perspectives. Britain's membership of the EU I would suggest is too important a matter to play Russian roulette with in that way. But irrespective of what I as an individual independent backbencher might think there surely is a compelling case for improving the quantity and the quality of the British debate about Europe. And there must too be a case for the public debate in Britain to escape from the hyperbole of the tabloid press quite often outright lies and to address those important issues in a measured and responsible manner. And this week's debate between Nick Clegg and Nigel Farage was perhaps a first step in that direction. Only then will Britain's continued membership be properly rooted and will we avoid that sleepwalking towards the exit of which some have warned. Thank you very much.


Hi, welcome to the latest episode from the Rock to the Cloud season two. Obviously, we've had quite a lot of exciting stuff happening and we're here to talk to you about all things Rock to the Cloud, Windows Server, Windows Server 2022, Azure, all of the other lovely good stuff, HCI, all sorts of stuff that we want to talk to you about, demystify some of that stuff for you and also not just talk to me, but talk to an expert. So this time we've managed to wrangle the Microsoft Unicorn of Azure. So, Sarah Lee and Sarah, how are you today? How are you doing? I'm doing good. Thanks Thomas, how are you doing? I'm all right. That's why I've got Unicorn on my little picture box there, especially for you. So just let's remind everybody, why are we talking to Sarah? Why is Sarah a good person to talk to about all of this stuff? So I'm a senior cloud advocate at Microsoft and I'm in that IT Pro camp. So like you say, I'm a bit of a unicorn because I look after on-prem systems, look after infrastructure and also look after the cloud types of things. So I have a passion for Windows Server and all those kind of good stuff that the IT Pro is an operations team look after. So yeah, I'm quite excited to talk to you today about Windows Server 2022. Brilliant. Well, I'm glad that you are passionate about all those things because today we're going to talk about, maybe it's quite, is it a small thing, is it a big thing? I don't know, we've just launched a new OS, Windows Server 2022 and we're going to talk about what's new in Windows Server 2022. So it's pretty exciting. For me, it's exciting anyway. And I think it's always good to talk to somebody who is passionate about it like yourself. So how about we jump into today's topic? Yeah, sounds good. Always good when the person you're talking to says, yes, that's good. So obviously, Windows Server 2022, one of the biggest things that's changed is, this whole talk of hybrid being enabled for cloud solutions, integrating Azure Arc and all the policies and all the monitoring and all that kind of stuff that's happening. So Microsoft are calling Windows 2022 their first true hybrid OS. But can you tell us a little bit more about the features and benefits of why they're able to make such a bold statement? Yeah, so hybrid is very much at the forefront of what our customers are trying to do. I think lots of customers want to take advantage of that on-prem environment that they already have, the investments, the skills that they have, but they're starting to leverage some of the cloud functionality as well, the scalability. So what we're seeing is people putting resources in both locations and some of the issues that they're having with that is being able to consistently manage it, Thomas. So they don't want to be using one monitoring tool for their on-prem environment. They don't want to have another one for their cloud environment. So when we start to look at some of what they can do with Windows Server 2022 and then adding on the Azure Arc agent means that you can extend some of those Azure capabilities that you might want to use or are already using to your servers that are living on-prem so that you can use Azure as that kind of management plane. And as you said, installing the Azure Arc agent onto your Windows servers machines allows you to use Azure monitoring, use Azure security, using like update management to patch your servers. There's all sorts of goodness that can be extended from the cloud back into your on-prem environment. So yeah, and I think the focus of where they're going with Windows Server is very much that hybrid capability. That's where customers are focusing their environments on. So that's where the Windows Server team are focusing on. So I think that's why they're being very bold about their claims. Well, no, I mean, they're making lots of claims and bold statements. One of the things that I suppose is a buzzword that's kind of on everybody's lips is security. And I think I saw this new thing called, is it secure core technology? That has been added to Server 2022. So what have Microsoft done there to change the technology landscape for security? Yeah, I think security is something that everybody is thinking about. It's a constant worry for a lot of people in their environment, whether they're secure, whether ports are open, all that kind of thing. And if someone gets attacked, it can be very costly for an organization to have to deal with that, especially if we get into the data loss and data leaking type scenario. So with the security and Windows Server 2022, we have something called firmware protection or that secured core server that you were talking about. And that protects against the firmware attacks that we're seeing with a lot of customers. So when you look at like Windows Admin Center, which we talked about before Thomas on the show, you can actually start to implement it and see if you have all of those security features for your firmware turned on. And that's something that we've maybe not had in the past. I know certainly, you know, when I was looking after servers for a lot of production environments, we never really thought about firmware attacks, but it's becoming more something that you do have to think about. So it's nice to see something like that being built into the operating system being thought about and giving, you know, your IT pros less sleepless nights because they know that something is being done around trying to protect them against those types of threats. Okay, and I know they're not a boy band, but TLS, right? What is TLS? Sounds like JLS, doesn't it? Do you know what I mean? Yes. So TLS is your transport layer security protocol. And that's around ensuring privacy and security with your traffic over the internet. And with server 2022, you've got support for TLS 1.3. 1.3 drops a lot of support for the older crypto algorithms, cryptographic algorithms. That's a mouthful. Which, because we're seeing a lot of attacks again from those older algorithms. So we've dropped support for that. But equally with 1.3, you're seeing a lot less handshakes for your HTTPS traffic, which means that your end users are actually going to get a faster performance and a faster experience. So it's not only good from that security point of view, but it's also good from the endpoint user as well. So yes, TLS 1.3 is the kind of thing to think about. So we've added insecure core. So I suppose you need, if you're using a server at the edge, you need to get yourself some new hardware, maybe with new Intel chips in it, that kind of stuff. Fine. But actually adding that in means that the OS is more secure from a firmware perspective. And then we've improved the TLS, which is the transport layer security, which is those handshakes. I love that. I love the way that we just take like, it's a handshake. So the amount of handshakes has been reduced, which is good in COVID times, right? Because with COVID, obviously you'd want to be shaking those hands. So obviously COVID friendly OS. And then there was the last thing that I think I remember seeing on the launch was for security SMB. And when I say SMB, we're not talking about small-medium business. We're talking about something else, aren't we, for server? Yeah. So there's lots to cover around the SMB because there's been a lot of talk around Windows Server 2022 there. But in terms of security, SMB, the server message block encryption, is now supported at 80S256. Got to love those acronyms. We've made it more secure with the extra functionality there as well. Okay. And so, right. Okay. So that SMB is better encryption. It's more secure. But what exactly is the benefit of that to me, right, with my new server? I think it's just that privacy. Again, you're upping the level of security because SMB is your file transfer type protocol. That's how you access.  So adding that extra level of security makes us all protected, both from an end user point of view and obviously as an IT pro as well. So yeah, those kind of things might seem insignificant when you're looking through the technical specs of an operating system, but they're good to be there. It gives you that extra peace of mind. Cool. Does it adds like better compression? Am I right in thinking when you're transferring things across networks as well. So actually it kind of makes the network more efficient. Yeah. So one of the other big features in this new operating system is SMB compression. And that's really just compressing the files that people are transferring across the network. I think when we've looked at customer feedback, some of the larger files, you know, virtual machines that people have been copying across their network took a while. And you know, the down times, you know, the transfer times were coming down slowly as we all upgrade different components along our network. But SMB compression can really make a difference. I think I saw Ned Pyle actually do a demo of this where he was copying a 20 gig VHD or a virtual machine file. And without compression, it took about two and a half minutes, three minutes to do that, which is not a lot of time, which is great. But when he turned on compression, he made that transfer in 28 seconds. So that's a big difference that you can add that on. So again, maybe seem insignificant, you know, two or three minute transfer time isn't exactly, you know, the end of the world, but being able to reduce that to 28 seconds is just phenomenal. And again, makes everything just that bit easier and faster and nicer for everybody. Well, you know, we live in a world where time is money, right? And also data is as a cost. So if you can reduce the size of the data package and you can increase the speed that it moves, well, actually that's going to save money ultimately. And that will affect people's billing and mean that they can do more for their money. So that's got to be good, right? So, yeah, like it's bold statements indeed, but it's definitely worth. I'm going to ask you about something else, another acronym that again, maybe I, the thing is, is that I learned the acronyms and the explanation for the acronyms from people like yourself. But quick, like obviously, you know, people come on this show and they want to get off quick, get that. But what does quick mean in terms of server 2022? So, yeah, I actually don't know what the quick acronym stands for, but I can explain what it means. So I'll help you there. So SMB over quick. And I'm actually going to read this, Thomas, because there's a lot of acronyms, a lot of technical information. I don't want to make sure I get it right for the audience. So SMB over quick is a protocol that replaces TCP with a web orientated UDP mechanism. So unlike TCP, your quick is always encrypted and requires TLS 1.3 with certificate authentication for the tunnel that's happening. So what that really means in terms of like, that's a lot of acronyms, a lot of, you know, tech speak. So what does that mean? What it actually allows you to do is with your remote users, you know, your hybrid users that are not in the office, none of us are in the office anymore, actually access files through your SMB over quick without a VPN tunnel have it happening. So you don't have to have your VPN connected because what we've seen is when you use the VPN, those traditional ports that you would use for SMB can sometimes be blocked. You know, that traditional port was port 445, which is blocked, you know, if you're sitting in an internet cafe in a hotel, that can often be tricky for you. SMB over quick is using port 443. So that's the UDP 443 port, which is a lot more open and you don't have to connect to a VPN to actually access your files. There's no change to the end users experience. They'll just double click on the file, access it, but in the bank, we'll be using UDP 443 instead of TCP 445. So yeah, that's a lot of technical speak, but yeah, it's an improvement for everybody being able to access their files and again, from a security point of view as well. It just seems to me like what we've done is we've done things at every layer of, I suppose, the server ecosystem to improve that security experience. So, you know, that's pretty exciting. Now, again, you know, I was sort of thinking back to the launch a couple of weeks ago, which was brilliant. I loved it. I have to say that we spoke to Rick yesterday, so obviously I have to say that I said he was the best part of it. That helps with his ego, right? But there was a lot of talk on there about containerization, using containers. There was talk about some supporting tools around that. So can you tell us a little bit more about what that was angling at? So like you say, when we announced the new server, there was lots of talk about containerization and all the support around that. The two bits of things that I picked out of that announcement that people might have missed is some of the tooling to help you support that containerization. So Windows Admin Center has some capabilities to manage your containers. So you can actually start to even build your Dockerfiles for you, so you don't have to sit there and open a blank notepad and start to script out your Dockerfile. You can use Windows Admin Center to build that up. So for me, that's fantastic. And then you can use that Dockerfile and deploy your containers, either to AKS or AKS on Azure Stack HCI. So again, it's just those nice integrations that you've got. And then one of my favorite tools as well, Azure Migrate has containerized ability. So we can look at the server that's running your workload, try to containerize the part of that, build that container, and then you can deploy it to AKS, for example, as well. So there's lots of lovely little things that can help you get to that containerized point if that's where your organization is going to. I think at the Windows Summit, Jeff Woolsey had a lovely slide with tons of announcements around container support. And that's great for the organizations that are really mature and are on that journey already. But the tools I've just mentioned can help those organizations that are still trying to get on to that journey, trying to get on to using containers. So yeah, those are my highlights.  Because you've just told us they're great, and it's a great journey to go on. But why do I want a container? Containers, I think, are great from that point of view if you're trying to get away from looking after servers. Containers are very much in that cattle versus pets type role, and you don't have to fall in love with your server and to make some changes and stuff, and they can be very flexible and very quick for some developer type opportunities. So yeah, there's pros and cons against containers. If you're going down that journey, then there's lots of support for you. It just depends if that's... It's going to fit some organizations, Thomas, but it's not going to fit everybody, to be honest, containers. So it's one of those ones you have to weigh up, depending on your workloads and what your objective is for your organization. But we have the choice now. So that's the main thing. And that's really what this is all about. So another thing that I saw is the native Edge browser with a full desktop experience. Again, why is that cool? I think it's just cool because Edge has become a tool that lots of people love. Like I've got it on my desktop. It's my browser of choice. Probably not a surprise given I work for Microsoft, but it's also a lot of people's browser of choice, maybe on their mobile phone and things like that as well. And when we had previous Windows servers, we had Internet Explorer. Now, I loved Internet Explorer back in the day, but it's a bit aged now and we definitely need newer technology. So having Edge built into Windows Server allows us to just take advantage of that. Now, obviously there's a massive debate about whether you should have an Internet browser installed on your server at all, Thomas, but that's another topic of conversation. Well, it probably helps though, I suppose, if you... Something like Windows Admin Center, which runs in a browser. And that's pretty helpful. Yeah. So, yeah. See, look, I do this and I'm remembering that I am learning. So that's the good thing about these videos. They're actually for me to learn. So I'm going to do some fundamentals now. That's my next job. I might talk about that later. But there are several versions of Windows Server 2022. And maybe can you enlighten people about what the different versions are? Can you help me out with that? Yeah. So we've still got standard edition and data center edition, but there's also an Azure edition. Now, with the Azure edition, that's where you start to get to use some of the features we've talked about. The hot patch in our Azure auto manage feature that's built into the Azure edition. Equally, Azure extended network and the SMB over quick is only available on the Azure edition. So you don't get those three features on standard or data center. So that's something to bear in mind. Although these features are amazing, you have to be using them inside Azure virtual machine to actually make advantage of them or take advantage of them. Okay. So that's really where I suppose the HCI piece comes in. Maybe if you want to go down that route, then that's where you would use the Azure edition of Windows 2022. And then you can use those super, super new features. Yeah. And you can get away with that. Perfect. Okay. So what has driven, I suppose, all these changes? Where are they coming from? Do you know what I mean? Because Microsoft has put in a lot of effort. To me, it seems like a lot of effort, a lot of new features. Why are we doing this? Why do we keep on doing this stuff? It's customer feedback. I think we've seen Azure grow and go in directions because of customer feedback. And the Windows server team are now following that model. They're very much listening to customers. They're very much listening to their security concerns. When we think back to the firmware protection, that's a big ask for customers. How can you help us with those attacks? There you go. You've got that feature. SMB compression, SMB over quick. All of these things are based on customer feedback and customer pain points. So don't think that your feedback is not being listened to because here's a great example of team actually listening to you and building that into the Windows server operating system now. It's good to know that somebody is listening. So I think we're going to probably move to the memes quite soon. But before we do, one of the things I saw alongside the Server 2022 launch, I saw that there were a whole new range of exams and certifications, like a whole new raft of stuff. Can you maybe fill us in a little bit on where people can go and do to learn a bit more about Server? Yeah. So this is very exciting because we haven't had Windows Server exams for quite a while and it's definitely again been another customer ask. So we're going to have two new exams, which will feed into the Azure server hybrid administrator associate certification. I think that's how you say it. So you're going to end up with AZ 800 and AZ 801. And those two exams will make into that certification. Now they're not quite out yet. They're going to be in beta round about the end of the year and hopefully go live in 2022. But it's really exciting to see not only an exam that covers Windows server, but that hybrid technology, that hybrid technology that a lot of organizations are using.  The things we've been talking about are going to be featured inside these two exams. So my colleague, Oren Thomas has created great study guides that you can go and use right now. Start to study so that when the beta comes out, you can actually go and, you know, set those exams and hopefully pass with flying colors. But yeah, definitely on my radar. And it's a very exciting announcement for us. Cool. Well, you know what? I think this series Rock to the Cloud is going to help me with taking those exams. So, Sarah, thank you. Thank you for all your help, advice and wisdom. So we're moving to that part of the show, which is the meme review. The bit where I get embarrassed and generally speaking, my guests are able to have a little laugh at the meme of my expense. So, right. Here we go. You're ready, Sarah. I'm getting comfortable. I'm getting in the zone for this. Right. Okay. So, meme one, please, producers. That is surely the end goal for any server administrator, isn't it? Oh, yeah. That's pretty cool. I've been in some messy server rooms, but never you made the cables into a hammock. I'll need to try that next time. I've got a hammock and I know how good it is, but I kind of would actually prefer a server room hammock. That is, that's just brilliant.  Do you think they've got one of those somewhere in one of our Microsoft data centers? That would be awesome, wouldn't it? That would be pretty cool. I don't think they would ever admit it. I know, too noisy though, I think to get a good night's sleep though, would it not be? I suppose, but you've got that monotonous kind of like zoning out sound. It's quite, I mean, it might be a bit noisy, but it's kind of got like a background. It could be nice. It could be nice to sleep in a server room. I'm sure some people have slept in a room before. If you have, I'm up to it. Cool. Right. Okay. Well, let's do, let's do meme number two. Are you ready? Not sure if it's a virtualized environment or if it's a cloud infrastructure. Yeah. Okay. There's a nice argument there, I think. So it's explaining that to me. I'm not sure if we're in a virtualized environment or a cloud infrastructure. To me, this is a reference to the matrix. What was it? I don't, I haven't seen the matrix. No, I don't know. I have no idea. I have no idea. So what would you say? Cloud infrastructure is just virtualized appliances anyway, isn't it? Someone else's hardware and then you're using the virtualization on top of that. So I think I'll just leave on words, because we've also got virtualization on prem as well. Maybe something like that.  It's, it's the idea of fry within fry within fry. Yeah. Yeah. It's far too clever for me.  So perfect. I didn't let that one was over my head. Wow.  So let's, let's just do, let's just do a quick, quick summary of what, you know, what, what we learned today. I suppose new server OS. It's the most hybridized version ever. It's got all new layers of security. And it's basically good to go with lots of new exciting features for people to get involved in Windows Server. And you told us about some cool new certifications that are coming from Microsoft. I think, yeah, is there anything else that you would summarize about Windows Server 2022 that, that you were excited about, but you never, you didn't get to say, or did we cover it all? Actually, I think one of the good features, I've noticed people mentioning it on Twitter was they were able to do great in place upgrades. So previously you would be really frightened of doing an in place upgrade, you know, reinstalling the operating system on top of your server because it might not have worked previous versions, but that is something the team have actually worked on. So it's really good to go to do an in place upgrade now from some of the newer ones. I saw lots of people doing upgrades from server 2019 to 2022 as an in place upgrade. And it just worked, which is what we want, right? So I think that's, that's something to bear in mind if folks are looking to adopt Windows Server 2022, you can take advantage of the in place upgrade because the team will be able to do great in place on that as well. Cool. See that? There's always a little bit more that I could learn. So Sarah, thank you so much for coming today on from the rock to the cloud. Everybody at home, really appreciate you taking the time to watch this episode. Obviously, we're very lucky to have Sarah. Thank you, Sarah. And keep your eye out on Channel 9, LinkedIn and YouTube for the next episode. And remember, if you've got any thoughts or comments, drop us a line. The subjects you want to talk about, let us know. We'll make sure that we get the right person from the amazing, you know, resources out there. There's a series of this world to come and talk to us about any exciting subjects that you might want to know about server. Thanks a lot and have a great day.


At what time did she learn of likely recent community cases of COVID-19 in the Auckland area? Mr Speaker, it would have been somewhere between 11 and midday, or there or thereabouts, on Sunday. At that point, of course, in the early stages of cases, of course, the Public Health Unit worked very quickly to try and establish, in the first instance, whether we have a direct link between the border and the cases, because that can give us an indication as to whether or not we have leakage at the border or whether or not we have a community outbreak, and that determines the kind of response that we'll need. Hon Chris Hopkins. Mr Speaker, early on Saturday morning I received one of those phone calls, which I dread—a phone call from the Director-General of Health to say that another COVID-19 case had been identified in the New Zealand community.


Just a friendly reminder we're mic'd up friendly reminder. We're mic'd up. I am I see you Pete. I Know each other a lot of content. Oh, there you guys are. I've been wondering where y'all that Yeah, it's a mind right it's a mind right hey don't take no for granted man Everything we do we do it speed and pass your man. Let's go out here.  Have a day Hey focus on three one two three It took this guy to like week 12 to finally loosen up in the huddle I see you P. You P. I might know fellas. Let y'all know Yes, sir. No, you can do that. You know, you're not supposed to try to run me over. He's right Desmond at the five flips it in zone maker There's the optimist in you Who would have thought he's got big old calves.  Yeah Hey, I'm sorry. I had to see that. That's a rat man rookie season over with It's on your next year. Let's go to work


Do you know what I mean? Like, it is what it is. And that that's it. And I should actually be proud of myself for even acknowledging that. You know, I think that there is an aspect of like, especially with with life, you know, we have all these social norms that people trying to try to thrust upon us. But being autistic, we have we have a spiky profile. We have things that we're really good at doing and we can do for ages and we can focus on all day to the point where we forget to eat and drink and, you know, the tiny details and, you know, recognize patterns and create things. But there's just such a there's a part of life that we may we may fall down on which, you know, for me, that could be things around like executive functioning, things like keeping on top of hygiene or cooking or cleaning or, you know, that those those things as well as within the workplace, things around like organization and communications, you know, there's lots of things that I'm great at that I can do, which, you know, it's, you know, if I would say it was like the product of what I would want to sell to people, you know, being like my podcast work and my blogs and stuff. But there's so many aspects to running that kind of thing that I'm not so great. Yeah. I'm really happy because I am in a situation where I found someone who might be able to sort of support me in that side of things, but it's taken a while and it's not something that's like readily pushed by and supported by, you know, like the systems that we have in place. Oh, yeah. 100%. I don't think anything. We've got to search out. Yeah. Yeah. I don't think any of the things that I'm doing would be possible without that support unit, you know, without, without people like Anna, without, you know, the help from Born Anxious and without them people that continue to inspire and motivate me.  We really nurture these projects and we have to try to nurture everything that is set behind them, them things that are new to us. And just be proud of that, innit? I feel like that's a proud thing. Yeah.  And it just being okay. Yeah. Yeah. And then all the stuff being like, I don't, I don't find that easy. And I need support with that and that being okay as well. It's like understanding the two sides of it. You know, like we see a lot of stuff. We used to see a lot of stuff, which is very negative about autism. Now we have sort of organizations, companies and people. Kind of they kind of go the other way where they say that everything's great about autism, whereas like the reality is, is that it's a mix of the two. And it's, you know, it's, it's just being different and having different needs and having different strengths and being okay without, I guess.
