If you look at sites like Buzzfeed, Hollywood Reporter, Variety, Vanity Fair, or Teen Vogue, you'd think that every new movie or show that comes out is problematic. How many times have you seen articles, blogs, and social media posts positively outraged about some casting or story choice in a movie that's just about to come out? Between accusations of cultural appropriation, racism, sexism, body shaming, ableism, every decision a filmmaker might make is potentially offensive to somebody. And even when the pundits and blue checkmarks don't get upset about a new movie's sins, we still get stories about how other people, often the wrong people, are mad about something they shouldn't be. It's a never-ending cycle of outrage. And the twist is, I think we do need to talk about it. But it's not the potentially problematic aspects of cinematic storytelling I'm interested in. What I want to talk about today is the idea of manufactured controversy and how outrage bait gets turned into cheat marketing campaigns that get people talking about mediocre films. So hit the subscribe button, ring that bell icon, and maybe grab yourself some popcorn, because we're going to talk about Ultra Woke Hollywood on this short edition of Out of Frame.  A movie, or even just the trailer for it, gets released. One of the actors, or perhaps the director, says something mildly controversial on a press tour. Maybe an acolyte of the Church of the Perpetually Aggreved finds something, anything objectionable in the trailer or just in the rumors floating around about a movie they haven't even seen, and they rant about it on Twitter. Then industry reporters take those tweets and publish a string of articles about the controversy. Now it doesn't even take many tweets or a large number of people getting upset to kick this off. All reporters need is enough to write the story. And as other bloggers and influencers react to those stories, the outrage escalates and the cycle continues. This is a fairly recent phenomenon, but it's becoming more and more frequent. Although one thing I have noticed is that so far it usually happens with films that aren't actually good. The most recent example of this is the new HBO Max release, The Witches. If you're unfamiliar with the issue with The Witches, you're not alone. In the 2020 adaptation of Roald Dahl's novel, witches are real, they hate children, and they're not human. They're described as having no hair, no toes, mouths that spread nearly ear to ear filled with sharp teeth, and claw-like hands. And indeed, that's what they are in the film. The production team used visual effects to make those changes to the actor's appearance. The end result, specifically for the claw hands, looks mostly normal, except for being elongated and lacking a couple of the middle digits. A few members of the limb difference community pointed out on social media that the witch's hands bear some resemblance to those of someone with ectrodactyly, or split hand syndrome. They were concerned that children would associate someone with the condition, or who is just missing fingers, with the scary evil witches. Both Warner Brothers Studios and Anne Hathaway, who played the role of the Grand High Witch, issued very public apologies. Articles were published, and for a few days anyway, people were talking about the movie. But here's the thing, the witches is not a good film. It's boring. The characters are terrible. The plot makes no sense. The effects are garbage. It's genuinely one of the worst movies I've ever seen. None of this is to say that people shouldn't necessarily be annoyed by the look of the witch's hands, but I'd argue that if it weren't for that controversy, nobody would have talked about the movie at all. Very few people would have even seen it. This is an unfortunate trend, and it's getting worse. A lot of this started back in the mid-2010s when we started to see more complaints about actors portraying characters with backgrounds and ethnicities different from their own. But before we really get into that, I want to be super clear about something. I'm not talking about Mickey Rooney's disturbingly racist Japanese landlord in Breakfast at Tiffany's. I'm not talking about slapping some eyeliner on a British woman and pretending she's Chinese, in Dr. No, when there were multiple competent actresses in the film who could have gotten the part of Miss Tarot instead. Stuff like that is worth criticizing, and it's generally good that we have moved away from this kind of whitewashing, because that was always based on intentional, racially motivated exclusion. But that's not usually what people get upset about today. I'm talking about outrage over casting decisions like Scarlett Johansson as Major Kusanagi in the live action version of Ghost in the Shell, even though the whole point of that character is that she's a woman inhabiting a synthetic body that looks nothing like her original self. I'm talking about people who got mad about putting Christian Bale in Exodus Gods and Kings when they should just forget that that movie exists. I'm talking about everyone who's angry at casting Gal Gadot, an Israeli woman, as Cleopatra, even though she's literally from the same part of the world. This kind of outrage is unnecessarily restrictive.  But a good faith interpretation of someone of a different background is precisely what actors are supposed to do. It's how we get world-class performances in movies like Brokeback Mountain, Boys Don't Cry, Rain Man, The Imitation Game, The Machinist, or One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest. Matt Damon isn't a math genius. Charlize Theron is an Africaner born to blue-collar parents in South Africa, not a lesbian serial killer from Michigan. Matthew McConaughey doesn't have HIV. Aquafina isn't a middle-aged man from New Jersey. Chadwick Boseman was born and raised in South Carolina, not in Wakanda or even anywhere in real-world Africa. Actors shouldn't have to be exactly the thing they're portraying in order to be great in the roles they're paid to inhabit. That's the whole point of the profession. Again, this does not mean that we should return to the bad old days of Hollywood where only white people are allowed to have lead roles and where women, ethnic or racial minorities or LGBTQ people are erased or replaced with grotesque caricatures.  But not only is all this outrage over actors simply doing their jobs not helpful to historically underrepresented demographics, it's also a recipe for making bad art. Unfortunately, playing up controversy is a recipe for effective marketing. Bringing this back to the witches, I don't think having the character's hands resemble extradactally was meant to be offensive. But at the risk of sounding cynical, I can't help but observe that the movie got more publicity when people started making a big deal about it on Twitter. And all the articles that boost outrage on social media are basically just free marketing. It's what PR people call earned media. Manufacturing controversy is like deliberately creating a sort of Streisand effect because at least some people will go see a movie just to thumb their noses at the ones who object to it. It's also really easy to see this approach to marketing taking root across more and more areas of society. Marketing firms like Whedon and Kennedy, Gray, BBDO, and Ogilvy are increasingly pushing outrage and controversy as a way to get people to buy whatever it is they're selling. From shoes, shaving razors, and Barbie dolls, to political candidates and ideologies. And they give each other awards for it. But the woke marketers have also, perhaps accidentally, created a perfect incentive structure for a regression in representation in popular media. I've said this many times before on this show, but incentives matter. We live in a world where outrage and getting offended is fashionable. It's almost a status symbol for some people. And the more outrage something produces, the more attention it gets. As a result, these incentives make it easy for anybody to exploit outrage to get clicks, shares, views, and if we ever get back to a world where people go to the movies and theaters, dollars at the box office. It may now be more lucrative to be excluded from an industry in order to play the victim than it is to actually get the gig. And no matter what, it's an incredibly divisive tactic that pits people against each other and contributes to increasing polarization. This is a really bad direction for society. But you need to understand where the problem actually lies. And it's not actually with the marketing firms or the companies trying to get people to watch their movies or buy their soda. The problem is us. Or, more specifically, the problem is everyone who believes that there's some kind of righteousness in outrage. Marketers are simply responding to what's working. And as long as grievances get attention, some people with an agenda will always be there to stoke the flames. So, if you're offended by, or just don't like a particular movie or TV show or any other kind of art, you don't have to consume it. It takes basically no effort to change the channel or even stop watching altogether. What you shouldn't do is become so enraged that a piece of art even exists that you demand an apology from the creators or try to have their work destroyed. This is not how we move forward as a civilization. It's how we encourage regressive attention seekers by giving them exactly what they want, rent free space in our own minds. Instead, we need to take the power away from those who offer nothing but anger and division. So, the next time someone tries to get you to give them free publicity by selling you their products or ideas based on outrage, try choosing not to take the bait. Hey everybody, thanks for watching. From my perspective, there's a huge difference between criticizing something you don't like and participating in outrage culture. Where's that line for you? Leave a comment and let me know.

Okay. Good morning. Good morning to everyone who was joining us online. Good to see you. Thanks for joining. I hope you all are doing well. Okay. Let's continue from where we left off in the last session. We looked at some of the basis for ministering in healing and deliverance, isn't it? Some of the basis for ministering in healing and deliverance. It's very quickly. Let me check if am I audible to everyone online? Is the audio clear? Okay. Great. Resounding. Yes. Awesome. Thank you. So we looked at some of the basis for ministering, healing and deliverance. Basis is what? Like the basics, the fundamentals. What are some of the things that you need to remember while you're ministering, healing and deliverance? So what's the first basis for ministering, healing and deliverance? It's the first basis. God's nature. Yeah. Thank you very much. God's nature. Second one, the cross. And in that cross, that section, we have the cross of Jesus and the blood of Jesus. Thank you. Okay. And what else? What's the next basis? Faster the name of Jesus. Word of God. The name of Jesus. Holy Spirit's power. Okay. What else? Faith. Kingdom of God. And the last one is commission. Okay. All of those points are from your notes. Everything. So that's what we discussed in the last class. It's all these different basis for ministering, healing and deliverance. Okay. This is something that we need to keep in mind. Once again, I want to re-emphasize that these are the basis. In other words, it's basics. If our basics is not strong, you can't build on it. Like if your foundation, if you all understand the importance of foundation. Yes or no? Yes. No. Maybe. Okay. We all understand the base, the importance of foundation, isn't it? So when we say that the basis for ministering, healing and deliverance, if you have a heart to minister healing and deliverance, pray for the sick, heal the sick, etc., etc. These are the fundamentals that you need to remember. First, you need to understand the nature of God. And what His word has to say about ministering and healing and deliverance. We have the name of Jesus, the cross, the power of the cross, the blood of Jesus Christ. The Holy Spirit's power has been given to us and the kingdom of God. And then finally, it's the commission. Commission is two different words. Co-mission. We use words like co-partner, isn't it? Co-founder. I am the co-founder of this company. So that way, commission is two different words. Co-mission. That means we have co-partners in this mission of God. So these are all the different bases we saw of ministering, healing and deliverance. Let's continue. We will go into addressing a few fundamental questions again in this session. Basic questions that people tend to have regarding healing and deliverance. Classic question, is it God's will to heal everyone? Okay, fantastic. Let's move on. You don't have to have any doubt that if it is heal everyone or not. So that's again the basic, the fundamental truth that has to be super strong in our hearts. So one more time, is it God's will to heal everyone? Is it God's will to heal everyone? Okay, thank you. Absolutely, it is God's will to heal everyone. Now in the Bible, we come across difficult passages. Like in today's mentoring, Pastor Jay Kumar spoke on suffering. Job suffered, why do we have to go through suffering? There are so many scriptures, difficult passages to understand. Why did they have to go through this? Why did they have to go through that? But a response to those difficult passages is very simple. If you don't understand the difficult passages, but if you understand Jesus, that is more than enough. Why? Because God's best, God's absolute best is seen through His Son, Jesus. Okay, God's absolute best is seen through His Son, Jesus. Are you with me? Okay, it sounds so simple. It sounds so basic, but that is so important. Like understanding the truth is key for us to minister. And not just minister, but there is a chapter in the later on in the subject where the truth has to be so strong in you to even receive healing and deliverance. It's not just about ministering healing and deliverance, but it's also about receiving healing and deliverance. So if Akhil is ministering to me, then I also need to, the one who's receiving healing and deliverance, I need to know for sure that it is the will of Jesus to heal me. Because God's best is seen in His Son, Jesus. Hebrews chapter one says He is the expressed image of the Father, right? Of the glory of God. Are you all with me? Okay, but let's look at a few scriptures, a lot of scriptures, which is going to help us understand this even better. Okay, Matthew chapter four was 23-24. I'm reading from your notebooks, page 56 in your PDFs. And yeah, I don't know which page number it is in your hard copies. It's different. Okay, for me it's 84 and 85, but okay. So Matthew chapter four was 23 and 24 says, And Jesus went about all Galilee teaching in their synagogues, preaching the gospel of the kingdom and healing all kinds of sickness and all kinds of disease among the people. Okay, healing all kinds of sickness and all kinds of disease among the people.   Okay, this passage of scripture is not often shared as a memory verse, but I present to you that please memorize this passage of scripture. Okay, Matthew chapter eight verse 16. When evening had come, they brought to him many who were demon possessed and he cast out the spirits with a word and healed all who were sick. Matthew 12 verse 15. When Jesus knew it, he withdrew from there and great multitudes followed him and he healed them all. Mark chapter six verse 56. Wherever he entered into villages, cities or the country, they laid the sick in the market places and begged him that they might just touch the hem of his garment and as many as touched him were made well. Luke chapter four verse 40. When the sun was setting, all those who had any that were sick with the various diseases brought them to him and he laid his hands on every one of them and healed them. Are you with me? Are you following? Matthew chapter eight was one to three. Talks about the leper, right? It says in verse one, when he had come down from the mountain, great multitudes followed him and behold, a leper came and worshiped him saying, Lord, if you are willing, you can make me clean. Then Jesus put out his hand and touched him saying, I am willing to be cleansed. Immediately his leprosy was cleansed. Okay, there are so many things that's happening in the chapter. Now, if you read through Matthew chapter eight, there are different scenarios where Jesus ministers healing and deliverance. It starts with this person who was healed from leprosy and then later on in the chapter you see a person is raised down from the roof and Jesus heals them. So Matthew chapter eight is another very important chapter about Jesus' ministering of healing and deliverance that we need to read. Okay, so let's look at that. Now, in the previous page we read five scripture passages, right? From Matthew chapter four, Matthew eight, Matthew 12, Mark six, Luke chapter four. What did you understand from those chapters? Sorry, okay? It was not like most or some of them, it was like all. That's something consistent that you see. Yeah, he was there for all. He healed all, right? Okay, thank you. Shani, I see you've raised your hand. Oh yeah, that's not going to say that he healed everybody. I'm not sorry. Can you say that again? Oh, I was just, I'm sorry, I was just going to say that he healed them all. He healed everybody in all those chapters. Sorry, Shani, just give us one moment, please. I'm not sure if something's wrong with that. Okay, Shani, do you mind speaking again, please? Yeah, I was just going to say that in those chapters, he healed them all. He healed everybody. Yes, yeah. Yeah, he healed everybody, yeah. There's not a single time where you see Jesus said, oh, he responds by saying, I'm too tired. I'm sure he was because he was also human. When the Bible says multitudes came, we don't know the number. What is multitudes? Right? Last year I went on a mission trip to Balorabazaar in Chattisgarh. We have one of the churches there, an outreach church there, and I went alone. And, you know, mission trips are kind of packed one after the other, one after the other. And, oh man, in one prayer meeting, there were more than 50 people, more than 50 people, and all of them wanted prayer. And by the end of the 50th person, I almost wanted to faint. You know, I was very tired because, see, it's not just one thing. It's not just energy, physical energy that, you know, we can play football and, you know, you'll have energy. But the thing is, there's a spiritual element to it, isn't it? There's a spiritual element to it. It's the spiritual warfare. You're going against the principalities on the powers of darkness. When you are ministering, healing and deliverance. And so it's not just, and I also tell the worship team members and worship leaders, especially, is, you know, if you're feeling tired after leading worship, you know, at the end of the service, second service, you know, at APC Central, it's not just physical tiredness. You're there upon stage declaring, proclaiming that Jesus' name above every other name. He is holy. He is good. He is wonderful. He is magnificent. And all of this, in a way, is waging a war against the principalities. And that will take a toll on us. Are you with me? But here, what I'm trying to say is it is very tiring. And I'm sure Jesus, you know, fully God, he was fully man as well. So we see that he got hungry. He slept. He was tired. And so it must have been tiring for Jesus. It would have been. But he never said, okay, go back. Come back tomorrow. He never said that. Or at least doesn't record in the scriptures, right? To everyone who came to him, he healed them all. He delivered them all. Isn't that wonderful? Matthew, Mark chapter 6, one of the scriptures that we read, it says, when he entered into villages, cities and all the country, they laid the sick in the marketplaces. They laid the sick in the marketplaces and begged him that they might just touch the hem of his garment. That they might touch the hem of his garment. Where else is that word, those words used? The hem of his garment. The lady who was suffering for 12 years with the issue of blood, right? And so that's recorded previously. And so the news of that instant passed, spread to the other cities. Hey, there was this lady in the other village in another town where she touched the hem of his garment and she was healed. I'm sure it will happen again to us. See the faith? You see, right? See, one of the words, meaning for the word testimony, okay? One of the meaning for the word testimony, it simply means to do it again, right? Another meaning for the word testimony simply means to do it again. That means when we testify of what Jesus did, okay?  What is he doing? He's testifying, isn't it? And while he's testifying, there's so much of power because he's sharing about Jesus. And while he's testifying, there's an atmosphere that's being created for Jesus to do that miracle one more time. Are you with me? I hope you really got that, okay? But very quickly, let's look at this scripture from Malachi chapter four, verse two. Malachi chapter four, verse two, it says, But for you who fear my name, The sun of righteousness shall rise with healing in its wings. You shall go out leaping like calves from the stall. The sun shall rise, the sun of righteousness shall rise with healing in its wings. Now, why did I bother reading the scripture from the Gospels like it seems no connection? Okay, so in their culture, right?  Yeah, so it's not exactly dupatta, but they would wear it around their waist and it would go down, go down to their feet, okay? And that in their language, in their culture was considered as wings. You understand where this is going? So in their culture, the piece of cloth which would hang down from their waist, which was used to tie things, was considered or called as a wing. So this woman who wanted to touch the hem of his garment, should have known the scriptures really well, that hey, the word of God says, the sun of righteousness will rise on healing in his wings. So what is it referring to is that piece of cloth that was actually hanging down?  Are you with me? So this is just a little cultural context for us to understand what that is and what it already had said in Malachi. Okay, let's move on. Are you all with me alive? Yes? Okay, good. So again, looking at Matthew chapter 8 verse 1 to 3, it talks about, you know, the leper. When Jesus comes down from the mountain, great multitude followed him, and behold, a leper came down and worshipped him, saying, Lord, if you are willing, you can make me clean. Look at the progression of that statement. Lord, if you are willing, you can make me clean. He's not talking, so please pay attention. He's not questioning the ability of God. He's not saying, if you can heal me, heal me. Can I say that again? He's not saying, if you can heal me, heal me. No. He's coming to Jesus knowing that Jesus can heal him. He's not questioning the ability of Jesus or the authority of Jesus. But he's coming to Jesus saying, Lord, I know you can heal me, but if you are willing, heal me. Isn't that wonderful? And then Jesus says, I am willing. Be cleansed. Immediately, his leprosy was cleansed. Now, we can talk about why is there words like cleansed used instead of healing for leprosy? Because leprosy was originally a curse. It was not a disease. The first time leprosy is recorded in the Bible is in Numbers 12, where Moses' brother and sister, Aaron and Miriam, comes before the Lord when they had complained against Moses, and you should read the chapter. But that's where it's first recorded. And so it was really a judgment of God. And so there was no healing for it. They had to be cleansed. But like I said, it's a very different topic altogether. We will not get into that today. All right. Let's move on. So why do we continue to minister healing and deliverance for everyone? Because the second point is the cross is for everyone. The cross is for everyone. Let's look at 1 John chapter 2 verse 2. 1 John chapter 2 verse 2. I'll post this in the chat section just in case. It says, he is the preparation of our sins, and not for ours only, but also for the sins of the whole world. And 1 John chapter 3 verse 8. Let's look at another scripture. 1 John chapter 3 verse 8. So it says, whoever makes a practice of sinning is of the devil, for the devil has been sinning from the beginning. The reason the Son of God appeared was to destroy the works of the devil. I'm reading from the ESV. The translations will sound different. But the reason Jesus came was to destroy the works of the devil. And one of the ways how we did that is through the cross. So it says, he is, in other words, what we will call it as a substitutionary sacrifice, he is the preparation of our sins and not for ours only, but also for the sins of the whole world. The point is just to reiterate that the cross is for everyone. Healing and deliverance are not only for Christians, but the cross is for everyone. And that's why we minister healing and deliverance for everyone. Are you with me? So now let's look at another important point. God's promise of salvation is for everyone. God's promise of salvation is for everyone. The promise of the gift of salvation is for everyone. The Greek word for salvation is so though. I'm just reading from your notes. So is the Greek word found more than 110 times and is the most commonly used Greek word for salvation in the New Testament. The Greek word so is used at least 110 times in the New Testament. And then it goes on to say in the notes, so so is a verb, an action word, something that is done, something that happens because of a work of God. It's a verb. A verb is what? An action when you're doing something, isn't it? That's what it's considered to be a verb. So what is the Greek word for salvation? So so. Please remember that. Now this word, this four letter word called so so is packed. It's packed with so many other meaning to it. And that's what we're going to look at. So the same word so so is translated as forgiveness, healed, preserved, and depending on the context. So it goes on to say so so means forgiveness of sins. Please feel free to highlight those sections in your text books. The reason I'm going through from your notes is so that you'll be able to just highlight them in your notes. So when we think of salvation, most of the time we only think of praying us in prayer. Jesus, I make you the Lord and Savior of my life come into my heart. I give you my life, et cetera, et cetera. But that's all we believe there is to salvation, but there's so much more to it. So so so means forgiveness of sins. So so also means physical healing. It means deliverance from demonic powers. There's a scripture passages for all of those points. I want you to refer to it when you can. So so means forgiveness of sins. It means physical healing. It means deliverance from demonic powers. It means rescue and preservation from danger. Have you thought of salvation like that? I didn't until I came across this word. I didn't know that this is what salvation meant, but there's so many things to it. So salvation is for everyone, Matthew 1811. So so is received by grace through faith. And so so happens when you believe in your heart and confess with your mouth. Okay, what does Romans 10 9 and 10 say exactly what we just read? Romans 10 verse 9 and 10. Let's look at that.  Okay. Last week, there was a sermon that we preached. That was that was preached church about the importance of declaring the word of God or the spoken word.  Verse 10, for with heart one believes and is justified and with the mouth one confesses and is saved. With the heart one believes and is justified and with the mouth one confesses and is saved. So what does justification mean? Justice? Just as if you have not sinned. Right. Okay. What else? Justice justified. So you've been falsely accused. Yes. Go ahead. That's it. You've been made right. I know that makes sense. So if you have to go, let's say try giving a proper definition to it, justification or justified. It simply means a change in legal status. Right. A change in your legal status. Okay. That means so you were falsely accused for murder. Right. That means you are a murderer now. You've been labeled as a murderer. But then you hire a lawyer to fight, fight your case and then going through the evidences and proof and eyewitnesses and whatnot. You've said you've been proven innocent. So what has happened? You've gone from the state of being sinful or a murderer. You've legally become an innocent. That means you've been justified. Justice has been served as they say. Isn't it? Yes or no? So that's what salvation, a part of salvation simply means that you have been justified. That means we were once sinners. We are no longer sinners. Are you with me? Right. You deserved death. We deserve death. But because of what Jesus did, we are no longer. Right. And so that's what the Romans is as emphasizing in Romans chapter 10 verse 9 and 10. Okay.  God raised him from the dead. Remember that words. Okay. You will be saved with the hard one believes and is justified and with the mouth one confesses and is saved. Let's read one more scripture from the book of Romans. Chapter four was 25. The last verse of that chapter. Chapter four. Okay. Again, I'm reading from the ESV. Romans chapter four was 25. It says who was delivered up for our trespasses and raised for our justification and raised for our justification. The New King James Version says it very nicely. It says that he was raised. Jesus was raised from the dead after we were justified. Are you with me? Okay. I'm just want us to understand the power of salvation. Okay. Sozo in that we see, you know, most of the Christians believe that we have been forgiven of our sins. Yeah. Do you believe that? Most of them, every, you know, let's say, 95% believe that we've been forgiven. Right. If you ask why Jesus came to earth, you would say, okay, he came to die on the cross to forgive our sins, to forgive our sins, to forgive my sin, to forgive my sin, to forgive my sin. While we believe that we have been forgiven. We miss the point of understanding that we have not just been forgiven, but we have also been given. Right. We have been forgiven from our sins and iniquities, but we have also been given his righteousness. We miss that a lot. We easily oversee that. Okay. You know, we only we believe that we've been forgiven 100%. Yes, pastor.  He gave to us, isn't it? Like in the basis of healing and deliverance, he said, we have his word, we have his name. Right. We've been given the Holy Spirit. We missed the mark of what we've been given and we only focus on that we have been forgiven, which is important. Right. But we don't have to stay there. We have to also look at what we've been given. Right. So one more time just to quickly go through the gift of salvation. Sozo means. That's one forgiveness of sins. Also means physical healing. It also means delivered from demonic powers means rescue preservation from danger. Sozo is for everyone. Sozo is received by grace through faith. And Sozo happens when you believe in your heart and confess with your mouth. Okay. So that means everything else also happens if you believe in your heart and confess with your mouth. Right. You need physical healing. You believe in your heart. Jesus is my Jehovah Rafa. He's my healer. And so in the name of Jesus, I confess, I declare, I proclaim that I am healed. Right. So if you believe in your heart and confess with your mouth is not just for salvation prayer. When you say salvation prayer, all of this is included. Yes. No. Maybe. Yeah. Okay. Okay. And so when you look at. So as a pastor, or, you know, let's say, let's assume all of us here in this classroom here and all those online are pastors. Right. Now, if someone came to you and said, pastor, pastor, so-and-so, pastor, Anusha, Siddhu, Shami, Warren, say, someone comes to you and says, pastor, I want to give my life to Jesus. Right.  I say, I come to you and I say, I want to give my life to Jesus. What will your response be? Go to Ray, come tomorrow. What will it be? What will your response be to me, guys? I'm beginning to make me feel very bad now. You're in more of a position of, you know, you're happy, the instinctive reaction. And you pray, you would definitely use the salvation prayer. And you. So you will be happy to lead me in prayer and in the process of giving my life to Jesus. Yes. Right. Yes. Okay. You understand that's what salvation is, isn't it? Should that change when someone comes to you for healing? Should your response change? No. Is it? Right. We will never respond to anyone who comes to for healing saying, okay, you know, today is not the right time.  I don't think it's the right sign. It's full moon day today. You know, it might turn red in colors. I don't think today is the right time. Why don't you go and sleep over it and come back tomorrow? We don't respond like that. We shouldn't. I hope not. Right. We minister healing and deliverance to anyone who comes to us just like we would lead them to Christ in a salvation prayer. Isn't it? Jesus did not do that to anyone. He's our standard guys. Jesus is our standard. Are you with me? Yes. We do everything what he did. We are called to do that. We are called to commission, commission, co-partner. That is a privilege. Isn't it? I need to say that I am a co-partner. You know who my co-partner is? Jesus. If that doesn't excite you, I don't know what will. Okay. And so having understood all of this, we go to the next important question. Is it right to pray? If it be thy will when ministering healing and deliverance? If it is your will, Lord, please heal this person. We've kind of addressed this question, but just to move on. Is it right to pray or make a statement saying, okay Lord, if it is your will, please heal this person? No. Yeah. Because it's very clearly established. In chapter one and chapter two. Okay. We've established very well that it is the will of God to heal everyone. Why? Because the cross is for everyone. His blood was for everyone. Yes or no? And so it's really pointless for us to pray saying, Lord, if it is your will, heal this person. No. We minister healing and deliverance from a place knowing that it is the will of God, our Father, to minister healing and deliverance, to set this person free. And so we don't have to make those statements when you pray. Understood? I hope there is no doubt about it. We're not even going to have a debate about it. Okay. Yes. No. Understood. Hindi, what is it? Okay. Let's look at another section. Are you all learning something today? Okay. Thank you. Yes. Do you would like to use the mic please for the benefit of everybody online? So where can we use this word if it's your will? We don't have to use the word if. How did Jesus teach us to pray? Our Father who art in heaven, hallowed be your name. If it is your will, let your kingdom come, let it be done. No, he didn't teach us. He says, let your kingdom come, let your will be done. The Lord's prayer is key, isn't it? It's not the Lord's prayer, it's the sinner's prayer. Jesus is teaching us to pray. The first half of that prayer is what? Our Father who art in heaven, hallowed be your name. That is an address. We are addressing our God. Our Father who art in heaven, hallowed be your name. That means let your name be holy. That's what hallowed is. Let your name be glorified. We hallow your name. And then from the address, we think that the second half is also address. It's not an address. It's a petition. It is like an intercession. It's a prayer request. That's what we call it as a petition, isn't it? So first part is we are addressing our Father who art in heaven, hallowed be your name. Your kingdom come, let your will be done. And so his will is perfectly displayed in Jesus. And it is also displayed in his kingdom. Again, why? Because kingdom is two different words. King and dominion. So when the king comes, he always comes with his dominion. Isn't it? And in his kingdom, there is no shame. There is no tear. There is no pain. There is no sorrow. That's what Revelation talks about, isn't it? And so it is God's will. It's established from the beginning till the end that he wants his children to be awesome. Are you with me? Yeah, okay. Another subtle point in that prayer. It's not a subtle point, but Jesus says hallowed be your name and let your kingdom come. Praise and worship are so important and how we honor his name and how we rubber his name is so important because where his name is not hallowed, his kingdom will not come. Where his name is not honored as holy, his kingdom will not come. His kingdom will come where his name is hallowed and honored and worshiped as holy. Okay. All right. Okay. Cool. Let's move on very quickly. Since God is sovereign, won't he just heal people and if and when he wants to? This is a very important question, right? Since God is sovereign, won't he just heal people if and when he wants to? Okay. This is a huge section that we want to take it slowly, but we're almost coming to the end of the session one. So you know what? We kind of pause a little early so that we don't have to break the flow. Okay. So we'll pause here this session and we will resume in the next class after the break. Okay. All right. Have a good break. Enjoy.


So here we have possibly the most beautiful smart watch in the world right now. So you work on making this? Yes we did. We worked as a team on designing this watch. And what we wanted to do was design a smart watch, which is closer to the traditional watch. Also kind of a fashion piece as well, because we believe that the wearables is going in that direction. So here we have, this is the gold color. Is it real gold or is it real gold? It is real gold, real gold later. I'm a designer, believe me.  Yes. So you choose to do 42mm right? Yeah 42mm is very good for men and women maybe. Not only is it good for men and women, but it's also a good watch size for the traditional watch and the fashion watch size. Fashion size and... Or the traditional watch, fashion watch. And how's the heart rate? Is it always monitoring you only when you open the app? We use too much power to monitor you 24x7? It won't use that much power, it's just for that. So it's just for testing the heart rate once in a while right? Yeah exactly, yes. And there you have a very very very good display. So what kind of display do you have here? Well the display is 1.4 inches, which relative to the size of the case is 42mm. It's a very good ratio. Can you touch the screen? Does it work? It's on demo version right now. Yes on demo version right now. So this is an AMOLED right? Correct. So does that mean you can just see the time all the time or when you lift it up? The quality of the display, the quality of the display is very high. It's 286 CPI. Are you able to have a watch face that's low power watch face? You know like only showing the time, nothing else? No. Like you would have to... Well actually what's good about this watch is we have a choice of about 40 watch faces. Unfortunately we can't go through them right now. But you'll eventually see that you'll be able to have like sporty dials, sporty dials, also traditional kind of dials, also women's dials as well. Because this watch is unisex for men and for women. So not in terms of the size but in terms of the options you have. What is also interesting to note is... What's also interesting to note is the strap size for men, or the bracelet size for men is 21 millimeters. But if you go on the inside of the lugs, here is 18 millimeters. So it's very versatile, the straps are interchangeable. Nice. And you can actually use other straps? Exactly. Any straps? Exactly. Alright. So how soon is this ready? How soon can everybody buy it? In the middle of the year. And worldwide, all over the world. Wherever the Android Wear is available. It'll be available in 20 countries actually. And there's going to be some basic ones and a gold one. There's going to be a range. Like a range of different... A load of high.


Sebu skiza li wukwana zongomza. Like for instance I was at Citizen just last weekend. I was called for the interview but when I went there they switched the interview. I was supposed to go with the artists that I featured in my song. What they did was switched the interview, and the interview became his. Now he introduced me. It was very, very, very frustrating for me. And most of the time, when you are trying to... When you are going to perform live music or when you are about to do a show, we are patronised as women. People are like, are you sure the mic is loud enough. Are you sure you are ok, we are not taking it seriously. Kwawe cursi kwawe tapisha kwawe nula kwawe non solo iikimu na nida na wa wa mai kisha kwawe kwawe niligatwama kwawe hiiisime na kwawe kwawe na nida na mese kwawe niliga naka nhinomu nawa kwawe kwawe kwawe aisha kwawe kwawe kwawe ma Change Whats wana kwawe?


The horse with a beat of light, a cauldron of dust and a hockey hyosilver, the lone ranger. Companion Tottle, the dearling and resourceful mask-guider of the plains led the fight for law and order in the early western United States. Nowhere in the pages of history can one find a greater champion of justice. Returning with us now to those thrilling days of yesteryear, some out of the past come the thundering hoofbeat of the great horse Silver, the lone ranger of riots again. Get that railing, please. Hacking for the third time within a week. Work on the new railroad has moved forward steadily across the great western series without interruption. But when the rails were laid to within a mile of the town of Brockford, things really began to happen. After the Indians had been driven off, the foreman of the work crew talked to the men. At the third time the Indians had attacked and torn up the rails. For some reason they determined we won't make that last mile into rock. I get to work, start laying those rails again. Meantime I'm notifying the commandant officer at Fort Giles, 20 miles back along the railroad about these Indian raids. All right, let's get to work. Come on. A few days later at Fort Giles, the commanding officer, Major Bell, was talking to his captain at headquarters. That thing, the situation is a mighty take me from them. We felt sure that the railroad's trouble with the Indians was over. I know, sir. Supply trains have gone to the end of the line with additional construction supplies. Neither the trains nor the supplies have been bothered. But the minute the men start working that last mile into Rockford, the Indians attack. Thank you, sir. And what is this, sir? Tank Weaver, the Indians started here, sir. Tank Weaver. Yes, sir. Major, we'll see you later. Howdy, Major. What do you have to report, Weaver? A big band of Indians under Chief Blackhall. They came a couple of miles beyond Rockford. How many are they, do you know? Nine under a thousand or more braves, I'd say. Have you any idea why they become hostile after all this time? No telling what Indians will do, Major. Why they do it. Of course, if you have a large enough gas in here to force your men... No, no, I'd have orders to avoid open battle with the Indians. But smaller, I have only a small gas in here, only 200 men. Only 200? That's right. And I can't get reinforcements with least a month. If open warfare starts and the Indians learn how few men are here, it's going to be a good chance of taking the fort and whiting his head. Yeah. Looks like that last mile of track into Rockford just ain't going to be late for a long time to come then. Well, I have to fight them eventually, Major. Disconstruction on the railroad is to continue. I hope not. As this word to a public friend of mine asking him to get in touch with a certain man who might arrange a pow-wow with cheap black ox, then get the matter settled peacefully. I'm hoping that man will arrive here soon. He sure must be a right smart arm if he can do that. Who is he, Major? He's known as the lone rangers. Hey, I've heard of him. The Indians trust and respect him. I saw him in action once.  He always traveled with an Indian companion. Must be a mighty interest in Andre. I assure you he is. Well, I hope he can do what you think he can. All right, back over to town. Keep you posted, Major. Very well, Weaver. I'll be back in a few days to make another report. Goodbye, Major. Goodbye. My afternoon, the lone ranger arrived at the fort in response to the message Major Bell had sent to the Potrayer permission. The masked man and the major lost no time in discussing the situation. I've never seen Chief Black Hawk, but I know him by reputation. What have you heard about him? That he's clever and alert and quick to take advantage of a favorable situation. I see. He has great respect for superior forces. It's best that he doesn't learn of the small garrison you have here at the fort. I agree with you, sir. His sudden interest in stopping construction on the railroad is strange. Yes, he expects me that way too. And I intend to find out what's behind it. Since you've never met Chief Black Hawk, wouldn't it be rather risky going to his village wearing that mask? Oh, I realize there is a certain amount of risk, Major, but I have a suggestion to make, sir. Of course. You'll be acting on behalf of the army. Why not go to see the chief disguised as one of my officers? It's a good day to let you have a uniform. Good suggestion, Major. I'll follow it. You may wish you every success with Chief Black Hawk, too. Thank you. If I'm successful in arranging a powwow, I'll let you know at once. Now, I'll go with you to get that uniform. We must do everything possible to settle the situation by peaceful means. New time, I hope we've heard a scowl to Donald Rockford. He entered the cafe and approached the heaviest man on the side of the table in the corner. Hello! How's the day? Well, eh? I'm not sure if you're going to thank me. Made the trip as quick as it could, Jerry. Yes, how's your make-up? Found out plenty at a fork. What are they planning to do? Listen, Harry, Major's scared of an open fire, as he has ordered to settle the situation peacefully. Yeah, they won't get any words of Chief Black Hawk, as long as I'm paying them off with rifles. Well, first, Chief Black Hawk has played along with it. Sure. As long as we can keep him doing just that, I'll be satisfied. The bed railroads pleaded as far as Rockford, my wagon, straight line won't be worth a nickel. But you can't hold it back for too long. I know. But it's held up another month. Some companies have been holding off waiting for the railroad who signed new agreements with me to hold their stuff. Look, have you ever heard of the road arranging? Sure, why? I haven't him come out here to try to fix things up with Black Hawk. With Black Hawk? You think you can do it? That mass robbery is known to have a way with the Indians. But if we manage to put him in wrong with Black Hawk and his braves, before the long rangers can get to him... How do you plan on doing that, Hank? With the help of our renegade Indian friend, Matisse Village. May I go? Yeah, may go. I'll meet him tonight, give him to eat a small hunting party of two-three Indians in the village. He'll walk in the hills in the morning. Yeah, then what? Let's go in the back room, or we won't be overheard. Come on, let's hear your voice. After leaving the port, the lone ranger rode to the outskirts of Rockford where he met Toto. Then they rode into the hills beyond town and picked camp for the night. The following morning, Toto started to town to get a few supplies. As he followed the trail toward Rockford, he suddenly ringed to a halt when he heard the shooting. Oh, Shufflefeller, come from around Bend in trail. From experience, Toto knew the value of caution. He glanced along quickly and noticing that a fairly deep arroyo ran along one side of the trail. He decided to ride into it and follow it around the bend to investigate the amount of scouts. Fighting scouts, Toto advanced cautiously along the arroyo. The heavy brush along the edge of the arroyo hit him from view. For a short distance, a heavy heard a voice call out. Hello, may go, let's go. Oh, Shufflefeller, oh, peering through the heavy brush, Toto saw three horsemen coming along the trail. He noticed that one of them was an Indian who had just caught up to the other two in answer for Hank's call. As the three of them passed along the trail close to him, Toto could hear what was being said.  What does may go go back there for, Hank? I don't know. Why don't you go back, may go? Oh, oh, oh. He gets this from police forces. Looks like a medal sometimes. Yeah, that's right. I'm going to piece the road. Before it wears silver charm round neck. Now me wear silver charm. You know what good it is. Ready to wear silver charm someday. See big teeth. That's legend of crime. Hey, you can call for that to be in trouble. You better wear it under your tunic or it won't be seen. Uh, please do that. You better send may go back to the Indian village with news, Hank. Yeah. May go? Uh, tell Chief Black Hawk.  The others were shot, but you got away. Uh, me too. Meet us in town early this afternoon. Now tell you something else you can tell the Chief. Some news about the force. Uh, now may go right to Indian village. Ah! The lone ranger won't have a chance when he appears at the village after may go tell their story. Well, let's get back to town. Here, come on. He'll go find out what to do, and he'll go tell lone ranger.  Tahoe left the alroyo and rode a short distance up the trail. He saw three Indians on his grazing off to one side and the bodies of three Indians lying nearby. Tahoe quickly stopped and dismounted. Oh, sir. Oh, sir. Oh, inspection showed Tahoe that two of the Indians were dead. What he knows besides the third, Tahoe discovered he was still alive. The wounded Indian opened his eyes and toppled them over him. Then, with a weak effort, grabbed the knife on himself. Now you'll get away. No, wait, wait. You'll get put down there. You'll not kill. Please put me with knives. Oh, you'll not do that. Now, me cut knives. It's not good. Please put some great chief black horse to die. By hand of Potawatomi. You'll not kill. Please put this old knife away. You'll not kill. No, no. Me help you. You see men who do this, me not see. If not matter. Me fix wound and me get your pony.  You'll not be afraid. Me help. Please put. You help. Please put, not forget. Using his knowledge of first aid, Toddle bombed the Indian's wounds and helping him onto his pony road with flake towards the edge of the Indian village. Then at breakneck speed, Toddle raced back to the Lone Ranger's camp to tell what he had seen and heard. The Lone Ranger had already disguised his features and was preparing to put on the army jacket and cap the major had given him. He was greatly concerned about the news. So the Indian may go and the Indian village to report that you and I are responsible for the ambush? Ah. Indian Fleetfoot. Me help. Him, Black Hawk, son. Maybe Fleetfoot knows the truth. No, no. Me help Fleetfoot. Him not see who shoot at him. He will believe Meigle. What do the two white men look like? One dark, heavy set, other thin, ranger. Him have army saddle and bridle and army blanket. Maybe him army scout. I see. I know this is serious. I'll put my mask back on over this disguise and run to the fort. Ah. What you do at fort? I'll talk to Major Bell and try to find out about that army scout you mentioned. Our class may have to be clean. You have to hear something. Ah. The Indian will tell me. They cover to the quickly. Ah. The curtain falls on the first act of our Lone Ranger adventure. Before the next exciting scene, please permit us to pause for just a few moments. Yelling savages move in on all sides with situations being open. They're not good. They're heartless, ladies. Oh, they can. First, we put plenty back. Thank you, sir, Chief. Meigle has spoken with a crooked tone. Meigle tells truth. Chief Blackhawk have revenge. Now we tie on horses. Take the chief. Oh, no, they don't. Arriving at the Indian village, the Indians led their captives into a wigwam. Then after they were tied securely, they left by themselves, except for the stalwart Indian brave who stood guard at the entrance. It was dusk when the Lone Ranger and Tahoe were led from the wigwam to the center of the village.  The Lone Ranger knew his mask would be taken off and was relieved that he had disguised his features just before their capture. Tahoe glanced at the calm, steady expression on the face of the Lone Ranger. Here come Chief Blackhawk. Maybe I can make him listen to reason.  The masked ones shall be uncovered so women can better enjoy seeing suffering the claims will bring. Await, oh great chief. Meigle has spoken with a terror disturbance. It is Masked One's word against Meigle. Meigle is of our tribe. He did not lie.  It's Fleetwood's human power and bring him to look at us, making him help now. Fleetwood, come, oh Chief, my father, Fleetwood, may he help you today. Remember? For the water me he drowned. Him saved, please, for him not killed.  Oh, man, they cut us loose.  Fleetwood, huh? Masked man is friend. Him not suit, it may go. And to other men. Tell them, oh, Motherfader. Me more.  You friend in him. Father must die. Oh, no! Him, friend! They won't take our word. It's one of their tribesmen. Not good. He must be here. What do you mean, Fleetwood? Fleetwood, huh? What a silver charm.  Charm around, make a megal. Me see him put it there. Father Water may now talk with Fort Town. Oh, no, Chief, my father. Him friend. Him not talk Fleetwood with Fort Town. Bring megal. Megal, leave with many graves. Go to Fort. Get ready to battle Indians with many soldiers. That's not true. Why are they going to the Fort Chief Blackhawk? They don't tell Chief only a few soldiers at Fort.  Take Fort now. Father, take a silver bullet from Blackhawk. Give it to the Chief. Ah. Ah. All right, give it to him. Chief Blackhawk, here. You take it. You give silver bullets. All right. It means you mask one of silver bullets. That's right. I was coming from the White Chief at the Fort to talk peace with you. It is not good to braze from Blackhawk's village going the war path against the Iron Horse. It is better that Great Chief keep the treaty of peace agreed upon some moons ago. White Chief of Fort wants to be friends. He asked for power out with Great Chief Blackhawk. Mask one speak wisely and well.  Tell him off. Yes, no time to lose. Chief Blackhawk, he must come to the Fort with us. He'll take long. May go and blaze there soon. If they wipe out the Fort, the Great White Father will send many soldiers. Chief Blackhawk and all of his people will suffer. He must have a long ride. May go have Dick Stark. That's true, but... Let us supply a train on the track one mile out of Rockford. We'll ride that. We'll take our horses and get there as soon as may go. No! Chief Blackhawk not ride Iron Horse. Iron Horse come to destroy all Indians. May go has lied well. The Iron Horse will not bother the Indians. You're not afraid? Chief Blackhawk, bravest of men. I'm going to ride the Iron Horse. I'm not afraid. Will you come? Chief, do what Masked One do. Hello, J. Malekka. Hello, Mabongo! He'll call up the horses and tell them to keep back our guns. Good. We must get to the Fort and event that massacre. The railroad is our only home. Accompanied by Chief Blackhawk and a few braves, the long range here in Tahoe rode to the point outside of town with a cracked end. A railroad supply train stood with steam up, ready for its return run back past the fort for more supplies. The train crew stood with drawn guns. Because of his officers' disguise the engineer and fireman listened as the long ranger explained the situation and enlisted the help. The chief looked on with misgiving. When the time came, he went aboard with the others and the train started. Two rangers had perquaded Chief Blackhawk to ride in the engine cab with him. The chief watched closely and flew back. When the fireman opened the glowing firebox he was about to throw in more wood.  The fire in there makes the iron horse go. It's all that harmless. The chief sat by the wing, grasping the edge of the window for support. He turned and looked down at the ground, looking at a strange expression on his face. Once more, he spoke. Chief, sit down, do nothing, yet move like big men. The iron horse carries us at great speed, Chief. And when the engineer suddenly reached up he started... You're pretty angry! Easy, Chief Blackhawk. The iron horse isn't angry. It speaks to move livestock and people from its path. So they may not be harmed. No, no, no, no. That's good. As the train moved along, the chief gradually relaxed. The look on his grey face changed from distrust to wonderment. From wonderment to pleasure. But the climax to his great adventure came when the lone rangers indicated his hand on the throttle. He soon found that by a slight movement he could decrease or increase the engine's speed. Finally, his usually set features clapped into a smile as the chief spoke. Iron horse, not master of Blackhawk. Iron horse, too many of these. That's good. That heat's good. Now you've found out that the iron horse is nothing to be feared, Chief Blackhawk. It is good for the West. It is good for your people. No, no, we need them go faster. And so the journey was made during which the Indian chief became past friends with the iron horse. Chief Blackhawk was dealing with a smile of a conqueror. As with the help of the engineers, he applied the grace and found the brain coming to a stop. Now it's quick to find Magel. Blackhawk punished Magel for evil talk and much-plating against chief's good friends. Iron horse. Meanwhile, at the force, make sure that his blade is in a furious attack on Magel. As in expression, he's English, Captain. We can't hold out against somebody. I'd like to know how they thought out about how few troopers were cast in the air. You suppose that's what it is? This place must go astray. We give you clustered bullets. What's wrong with this sight, men? Closing in time! Hell, whatever it comes, we get down fighting. Looks to show that's what's going on. We get you, Magel. C'mon, c'mon! Best man, one who killed brave. Easy, silly silver. Open that tunic of yours. Look, Kimakabi. There's silver time. There's the tribal talisman. Magel has fun of serpents.  Him steal silver charm from Fleetwood.    Stop!   No, no, no. You ride to the fort and take Magel with it. You tell us who the others are. Chief Black Hawk. Chief ready? Later at the fort, after finding that Hank and Jerry had been taken into custody along with Magel, the long range who returned the officer's jacket and cap and put on his mask and wiped some glare off. After a power with the Chief. The Magel spoke Chief Black Hawk. We have smoked the pepper peas. Those who spoke of pork turns the army scout and the stage owner will be punished by our lord. Magel will be turned over to you for tribal punishment. That's good. Him, enemy of Iron Horse. Well, everything you know, I'm sure you'll keep your blades for further attacks on the railroad. Iron Horse bring Chief to fort. I don't think you'll have any more trouble, major. Thanks, user. It was the silver tribal talisman that convinced the chief we spoke the truth. Chief Black Hawk, get new silver charm. A new one? Ah, fleet foot, get back round silver charm to wear. Chief Black Hawk, get charm that keep him brave. Strong. It's silver charm that bring peace. Me plenty proud to keep silver bullet charm. I'm sure that silver bullet and the talisman with great teeth may be proud of all these. Thanks, major. I'll send an escort with the chief to his village. Good. In that case, I shall leave. Adios. We've been fortunate, Chief Black Hawk, to have such a man as a nemesary to bring us together. Mask one, have wisdom from great spirit. In have strong muscle, spout heart from thunder god of Indians. In friend of white chief at fort, so may be friend of white chief. Mask one, say we have peace. Ah, that's good. May take braves from village. No longer will Indians fight the great iron oars. Well, Chief Black Hawk has spoken. The chief speaks with words of wisdom. The silver bullet is good medicine that has been given to you by the mask one. He is the chief. The chief speaks with words of wisdom. The silver bullet is good medicine that has been given to you by the mask one. He is the chief. He is the lone ranger. This is a feature of the lone ranger incorporated. Created by George W. Crenzel.

Hi, I am Hussein, I will be talking about the quadratic secret sharing and quadratic conditional disclosure of secrets. This is a joint work with almost a female and then. So I will start by a general descriptions description of our results. The notation that I will use in this slide will be familiar clear in a few slides. So we study polynomial secret sharing, which is which is in generalizes that we studied in our secret sharing. The motivation in studying polynomial secret sharing first, we want to construct a new efficient secret sharing skins for access structures. And second, we want to prove lower bounds for a larger class of skills. So in terms of results we we construct a quadratic secret sharing skins that are better than the best known they are secret sharing skins. And we construct a quadratic condition disclosure of secrets and protocols that are better than the linear protocols. And we prove lower bounds for polynomial secret sharing. In this talk, I will start by an introduction of secret sharing and the previous results in secret sharing. I will then introduce a polynomial secret sharing define it and describe the motivation by studying polynomial secret sharing. Then I will present our results in polynomial secret sharing. And then I will describe a building block that we use in our reconstruction which is polynomial conditional disclosure of secrets. Then I will summarize and discuss opening questions left by our work. So secret sharing skins were defined independently by Shamir and Blakely in 79 for the threshold case and by it was set to it was set on which is gain it is even for the general case so in secret sharing there is a dealer who holds a secret s and there is a set of in parties. The dealer applies a function on the secret s and some random string are generates and shares and gives each party a share. We say we define an access structure gamma as a collection of right sets of parties, and we say that a secret sharing scheme realizes gamma is the two following conditions first for correctness we require that any set that is in gamma should learn the secret. For security we require that any set that is not in gamma and it's called an authorized set should learn nothing about that secret. So in this talk the secret is only one bit which is a zero or one. And then we start by a warm up which is a secret sharing scheme realizing the end out of an access structure. So in this access structure that there is only one authorize set which is the set of all the parties and every other set is an authorize it. So in the construction is as follows the secret, where the secret is that the data it chooses in minus one random bits are one to R in minus one. The units are in the exclusive or office and all the other bits, and now gets party PI the share is a bit. So for correctness if all the parties a party said that then they can learn learn the secret by exploring all the shares. So if one party missing then there will be a random bit missing and we can prove that they have they have actually independent random a piece of the share size in this scheme is only a one a bit. Okay, so now we move to present our scheme for arbitrary access structures. Yes, we look at an access structure gamma that has a minimal override sets. So for every minimal override set a of size L, we independently execute it out the ask an L out of a secret sharing the scheme among the parties in a. For example, for the following access structure with there is two minimal authorize sets P1 P2 P1 P3 the third day is right set is not minimal. So we execute a two of two out of two scheme among the parties a P1 a P2 and independently execute a two out of two scheme among the parties a P1 and P3. So each party can be in at in up to two to the end a minimal authorize set sets then the number of the shares can size can be as large as the two to the end. This is what the best chair says the share size known for realizing arbitrary access structures until a few years ago. So, recently, after more than 30 years of research, we have a bit of upper bound for realizing arbitrary access structures. So we have an upper bound of two to the 0.585 and this achieved by a sequence of work started from 2017 and the last result was achieved in a paper that is presented in this conference. When we look at lower bounds we know that the best known lower bound is do the sense in the 97 is a omega n square over a look at. So we can see that there is a huge gap between the best of our bound and the best lower bound we know at and it's a central opening question in secret sharing to reduce this gap. Okay, this is what's a general secret sharing and now we will move to talk about linear secret sharing which is a class of skins. So this is an important class of schemes due to reasons first the many of them only known as secret sharing skins are linear and second, it has a useful properties such as homomorphism, which is critical for many some applications such as multi a party computation. So the linear secret sharing is constructed in finite field of the secret is one element in this in the field, and the randomness is the L is the finite number of the field elements we do not it by L, which are chosen by with uniform distribution. So, for example, here we that either it chooses R1 and R2 with uniform distribution in the future. Okay, so we say we define linear sharing. We say that the sharing is linear. If the share is I is a vector in the field of the vector of CI elements. And each element in this vector is a fixed combination of the secret and the random beats. So for example, here P1 is given only one element which is R1 plus to R2 plus s, and P2 is given to random elements. This is R1 and R2. If we say that the linear reconstruction is linear, if each of the right sets reconstruct the secret using a linear function. For example, P1 and P2, an authorized set computes the secret by S11 minus S21 minus to S22. This is a linear combination. We know that linear sharing is equivalent to linear reconstruction. This is by a result by previous say works. Okay, so now we talk about the previous result and results in the secret sharing. First, the scheme that we presented in the beginning of this talk is linear and has shared size to do the end. Recently, after 30, more than 30 years of work, we have better upper bounds. The best about non-today is 2 to the 0.7575n, which is achieved in a paper in this conference. And the best lower bound is 2 to the n over 2. For explicit access structures, we know a lower bound, which is 2 to the omega n. So we can see that the gap between the best upper bound and best lower bound in linear secret sharing is much smaller than the gap in a general secret sharing. And this motivates us to study in new classes of secret sharing. Therefore, we study a polynomial secret sharing. So polynomial secret sharing, we need to present motivation, the definition we presented in next slide. So polynomial secret sharing is a broader class of secret sharing schemes than linear schemes. The previous work defines secret sharing with the polynomial sharing. And in our conceptual contribution is the discussion of two additional polynomial secret sharing classes. So we introduce and discuss schemes with a polynomial reconstruction and the schemes with both polynomial sharing and reconstruction. So the motivation in studying polynomial secret sharing. Approve lower bounds for a broader class of schemes and second, explore new techniques for constructing efficient secret sharing schemes for some or all access structures, exploiting the nice algebraic structure of polynomials. So next we define a polynomial secret sharing. It's a polynomial secret sharing is constructed in a finite field F. The secret is an element in NS, which is a subset of the field, for example, is here reconstruct a scheme where it's all the field F3. This is a finite number of field elements donated by L that are choosing with uniform distribution. So here the dealer it chooses two random elements R1 and R2 with your from distribution. So if we say that the sharing is degree D sharing, if the share is the share of each party is a vector of CI elements in F, and each element in the in the share is computed by degree D polynomial of the secret and the random beats. The P1 is given to one element which is R1 plus R1 R2 square plus this is a degree three polynomial P2 is given two elements R1 and R2 this is linear. Okay, so degree D, we say that the reconstruction is degree D. If each of our set reconstructed the secret with a degree D polynomial. So for example, P1 and P2 computes is 11 minus is 21 minus is 21 is 22 square in order to learn the secret. This is a degree three polynomial. So we said that the secret sharing is degree D secret sharing. If it has degree D sharing and degree D reconstruction. So this is what's polynomial secret sharing. Now we will talk about present our results in polynomial secret sharing. So in our first result we separate between shea polynomial sharing and the polynomial reconstruction. So we prove that the polynomial sharing does not imply a polynomial reconstruction. This is improved and there is some complexity assumption. So in order to prove this, we show an efficient secret sharing schemes that has a polynomial sharing for an access to the share that under this assumption does not have a secret sharing with a polynomial reconstruction. So we prove in our second result lower bounds. So we prove a lower bound of omega two to the N over D plus one for secret sharing with degree D reconstruction. And we prove a lower bound of two to the omega N over D for secret sharing schemes with degree D reconstruction for an explicit access structure. So then we present our main result, which is our bounds for quadratic secret sharing. So first quadratic secret sharing is secret sharing with degree D sharing to sharing degree to sharing and reconstruction. Our main result reconstruct a quadratic secret sharing scheme for arbitrary access structure that has shared size to the 0.705N. So this is worse than a better than the best linear scheme which requires share size to the 0.75N. However, it's worse than the best linear scheme which requires share size to the 0.585N. We also separate the secret quadratic secret sharing for a linear secret sharing. So we construct a quadratic secret sharing for almost access structures with share size to two to the N over three. And by a lower bound that we know in linear secret sharing, which is two to the N over two for realizing, realizing almost all access structures, we get a required separation. Okay, so this is wasn't this was our results. Now we will move to talk about our constructions. So as building a block in our constructions we use a polynomial conditional disclosure of secrets. So conditional disclosure of secret, there is a function F, a Boolean function, which with K inputs, each input is in domain N. There are K servers, if you want to QK, and each server has a private input, has holds a secret S, and holds a common randomness R. There is a referee, the referee knows all the inputs, X1 to XK. And now each server sends one message to the referee, such that when sending the each message of each server depends on his private input on the secret S and on the common randomness R. The server does not see the inputs of the other servers, and does not see the messages that the other servers send to the referee. So very correctness if the value of the if a function F is one, then the referee should learn the secret, and if the value is zero, the referee should learn nothing about the secret. So now we present ABAR bound for CDS protocols. So for a function F with K inputs, each input in domain N, we will have a linear K server CDS for every function F with message size N to the K minus one over two. This is a tight ABAR bound by a lower bound proof in previous work. We also know that there is a non-linear CDS protocol with K servers for every function F with message size two to the square K log N. And we know that there is a quadratic CDS protocols with two servers for every function F with message size N to the one over three. So in our paper we construct a quadratic CDS protocol with K servers for every K for every function F with message size N to the K minus one over three. This is a tight ABAR bound by a lower bound that we we prove. This was the results in CDS protocols. Now we move to describe the ideas of our construction of CDS. So first we present the roadmap of our main result that we use the CDS in it. So we start by quadratic to server CDS from a previous work, we transform this protocol to quadratic K server CDS, we will present the ideas of this transformation in the next slide. Then we transform the quadratic K server CDS to quadratic K server robust CDS. The robust CDS is a new perimeter that was defined in previous work. Then for using transformations in previous words of converting a CD robust CDS to arbitrary secret sharing for arbitrary access structures, we get our quadratic secret share. Now we will talk about our constructions for a quadratic CDS. We start by quadratic for server CDS and the present the ideas in this protocol. So we want to construct a protocol for a function F with four inputs, each input in domain N. So now we're going to call some of the quadratic to server CDS of previous work for a function F in which the first input is in domain N and the second input is in domain into the three. So there are two servers q1 and q2 q1 has input in N, why q2 has input y and into the three so that each code and we look at the natural mapping of y to two. The three coordinates y1, y2, y3, which coordinate is in N. There has come on randomness is one is two is three, which are subsets of N. And now that's q1 sends a message of size order and we will not describe the message as it's not relevant to our ideas. Now q2 sends three subsets a1, a2, and a3, such that if the secret is zero, then h equals sh and if the secret is one, then h equals sh x or yh. That means that if the if yh is in sh then we remove it, and if it's not then we add it. So we have now two additional servers q3 and q4. The input of q2 is divided among the input y is divided among q2, q3 and q4. And now a server q2 cannot send it to the sets a2 and a3 since they depend on the inputs of q3 and q4. But he can send a1 as it depends on only in his input so he can send, he sends a1, q2, similar to q3 sends a2, and the q4 sends a3. So the message in this protocol is order N. Now we present quadratic seven server cdsc protocol, that's some of the previous protocol. So now we want to construct a protocol for function F with seven inputs, each input is in domain N. Now we look, we want to simulate the quadratic for server cds where the input of the first server is in N and the input of the other three servers is N squared. So we treat X2 and X3 as Y1 and X4 and X5 as Y2, X6 and X7 as Y3, and now we are back to the situation of for server cds. In Q1, the server Q1 sends the message of the first server in the for server cds, which requires your message size N squared, and the other servers should send the messages of the other three servers in the for server cds. So in order to do this, Q2 and Q3 execute a PCM protocol for sending S1 if the secret is zero, and S1 XOR Y1 if the secret is one. This means that Q2 sends one message, Q3 sends one message, and the referee should learn S1 or S1 XOR Y1 without learning anything about the secret. And our technical contribution is to show how to secure two and the Q3 send the messages. Similarly Q4 and Q5 execute PCM for sending S2 and Q6 and Q7 execute PCM protocol for SC3. So PSM should be quadratic and we show how to construct this PSM. So this is a protocol can be generalized for every AK using the PSM, this so our, so we have a protocol for every AK. Okay, this was the ideas of our constructions. And now we summarize and present open problems. So we studied polynomial secret sharing, which is a broader class of secret sharing schemes than they will need to study linear class. We proved lower bounds for secret sharing with polynomial reconstruction, we proved a new upper bounds for quadratic secret sharing and quadratic cds. These upper bounds are better than the best non-linear upper bounds. We separated between linear and quadratic secret sharing for almost all access structures. Now we discuss open problems. So the first question is to prove lower bounds on the shared size secret sharing schemes with degree D sharing. In our work we proved lower bounds for secret sharing schemes with degree D reconstruction, and it's interesting to extend the lower bounds to degree D sharing. So we constructed the quadratic secret sharing schemes and it's interesting to construct new degree D secret sharing schemes that are better than the quadratic secret sharing schemes that we constructed. Now the most interesting question is to construct efficient degree D secret sharing schemes efficient code people or schemes with polynomial shares. So construct efficient degree D secret sharing schemes for a larger class of access structures, then the access in the class of access structures that we know that have efficient linear secret sharing schemes. Okay, that's it. Thank you for your attention.


Ranger Bill, warrior of the woodland, struggling against extreme odds, traveling dangerous trails, fighting the many enemies of nature. This is the job of the guardian of the forest, Ranger Bill. Pouring rain, freezing cold, blistering heat, snow, floods, bears, rattlesnakes, mountain lions. Yes, all this in exchange for the satisfaction and pride of a job well done. You know, it's a strange thing the way we accept the Lord's blessing sometimes. Perhaps it's because we try to tell the Lord the method and manner in which we like the blessing delivered. We forget that while the Lord listens to our prayers and requests, he still knows what's best for us. The Lord's wisdom is without fault, and we're the ones who fail to understand his ways because we think that we know all the answers. Our story today pretty well illustrates what I've been talking about. I think I'll call this one, The Blessings of Snow. Let's drop over to the big feed mill owned by Barney Carver. In fact, the place is known as Carver's Corners, where two main roads intersect right in the heart of the big prairie country just to the southeast of Notty Pine. It's mid-morning, and a group of the farmers are gathered around having a little gin fest. Another dry year, and I won't be bringing any grain here to be ground Barney. I guess you won't be alone, Sam. We don't get moisture pretty soon. The big prairie will be the big desert. Yeah, it's almost that now. I know. Me and the missus took a ride last week, and I had to turn back. I just couldn't stand looking at that country shriveling up like a dead branch. Leo, how long do you think you can hold out? Well, I don't know. A year, maybe two, not more than that. I don't want to use up all my savings to get blood out of a turnip. Now we have to use some of it to relocate. But I won't relocate on a farm. I'd go to the city first. Yeah, that's what I'm thinking too. You too, Bruce. Me too. There's no sense beating my head against a brick wall. The good lord isn't going to send moisture. Then I'm going to quit farming. I'm afraid you fellas reflect the attitude of most of the farmers. And that's bad. Very bad. Yeah, but what kind of work can fellas like us do in the city? Why, we've been farmers for generations. I don't know about city life. Yeah, but I still... I suppose you'd rather move to another farm and get parched out on it. Then when your stone broke, try to start all over again. Well, that's not for me. I'm giving one more year. If we don't get enough moisture to farm like this, well, I'm pulling up stakes. Leo's right. You don't call this stuff grain, do you? Look at it. This ain't grain. I don't know what it is, but... maybe you could call it a handful of nothing. A whole year's work for a handful of nothing. Well, thanks for the eco-juice. What do you have? Sure, Lefty. You got in the truck, Lefty. Why don't you know them? They're my cattle stairs. I was just wondering. They sound like stairs, but they sure don't look like stairs. They change the market now so you can get the highest price for their skittiest critters. The looks out of the way of the load I've been hauling the market. You're filled up, Lefty. Thanks, Barney. Well, gotta get going now. There's supposed to be a blizzard heading our way. What? A blizzard? Turn on the radio and you'll hear the joke of the year. Well, to be honest, we're gonna have moisture. Now, let's go inside for a while and listen to that noise box. To 10 inches of snow will fall accompanied with high winds and dropping temperatures. The storm is moving swiftly and is expected to hit this area around noon. We return to our regularly scheduled program. You hear that? You fellas had better skedaddle for a home and get your hatches battened down. Barney, you must be loco. Like Lefty said, this is the joke of the year. And hell, I'm not a better man, but I'm almost tended to put $10 on the fact that not one snowflake will fall on Big Dread. I can see the snow piled high all around now. My snow shovel has got so much rust under it that none of the handle is left. What is a snow shovel? Well, a snow shovel is a dustpan type object with a handle that you keep around the house so you have something to fall over. So that's what that Big Red Shovel I got out in the garage is used for. I was gonna give it to the museum. You fellas know I've got a wide elephant painted red. It's a snow-blow attachment for the front of my tractor. We had a big snow seven years ago. I bought it. Well, what a waste of money. You should have bought a sprinkling can for the front of your tractor. Hey, say we better hurry home. We might not make it for all the snow. I got it. Hello, Ranger headquarters, Bill Jefferson speaking. Thanks for the warning. Yes. Goodbye. Well, fellas, we better put our parkers on and get ready for a snow battle. Blizzard? Yeah. A real bad one heading this way. You sure it'd come here, Bill. Yes, that's what the weather boy just told me. Naughty pine and big prairie country will get the heaviest snowfall. Grenation in Moroccan chair. You do it. I'll put a tack there. Oh, yeah. You try it. I'll put it back. Oh, yeah. You try it. I'll put a piece of plank in my breech. All right, you two. Let's get ready for the big snow. Save your energy for that. We might need it. Look at that snow. Wow. Yeah, 20 inches out so far. Now much we can do with it blowing so fiercely either. Not quite. Using snowfall waste of time. When this comes? Sometime tonight or early tomorrow. You do that, old timer. Well, keep an eye on this wonderful snow.  It most certainly is, pal. But think of all the damage it's doing. I'm sure the benefits of the moisture will be more than offset by the damage, especially on the big prairie. Yeah, that's right. I never thought of it that way. A big prairie hard hit by drought. They need snow. Well, I'm sure we're getting it. That snow's going to stop me. We're kind of worried. Big prairie got plastered with the stock. You don't say. Well, pin you on me to put these stairs in. Make it number 12. Hey, what's your hurry? Gotta go back for another log. What? This weather? This ain't top weather. This stuff will be gone by the time I give back a big prairie. Hello, Sam. How do you like the snow? What snow? It's going down the river fast it came. You looked at your thermometer lately. You mean this moisture isn't going to do any good? No, I knew it was too good to be true. We need a slow thaw so the stuff will soak into the ground. This is leaving. It was fast it came. It sure is. Real runoff. If this warm spell holds out another day, the snow will be gone. Every last bit of it. It didn't get much of a workout. I'll say it didn't. This fast thaw should take the snow away in a hurry. The big prairie got some benefit in this storm. So do I. Why are they sure needed? I don't know. Well, a little bit is better than none at all. Perhaps the farmers will have enough moisture from this to sprout their spring crops and help the winter grains. If they can get that much benefit, then this snow will show some blessing. You're right there, pal. The Lord does everything for a purpose and is up to us to see the blessing in it. Sometimes we can't see the blessing until it's long past. Howdy, Sam. I see you're getting your plows ready to go. Yep. Bruno's putting the razor edge on them. I figure I might as well plant seed. There won't be much more in the hole because of it. And that's the way I figured, too. Maybe the little moisture we've got will mean not to sprout the seeds. Little moisture's right. When I turned over a couple of furrows just for the fun of it, then why the soil's like powder. Ah, ought to stop kidding ourselves, Sam. We're through farming this country and we all know it. Yep. We're hanging on to a greased row. Sure.  Just trees and trees and more trees. Throw in a couple of rivers, a dozen bricks, and that's it. You're right. Ah, you ready to take over? Yeah. No. It's an automatic palette. Then we change seats. Feel better. That exercise moves some blood around.  I wouldn't, my legs aren't long enough to reach the ground from here. Build a patrol plane six. Build a patrol plane six. Over. I wonder what Bill wants. Patrol plane six to Bill. Over. Henry, gray wolf. We're coming right in. What's up? Over. Another blip. Home, James, and don't spare the horsepower. All that distance where there's storm coming up? I figure we can bait the storm and still get there and back if we hurry. Why don't we go to Carper's Corners? Well, I heard through the grapevine that they're kind of laughing at these warnings. I want to talk to Bonnie about it. If it's true, try to impress them at this time that better listen. The weather boy is telling me this is going to be a real humdinger. The plane's anchored down. Okay, let's go. Build a central city. It's crazy if he does. You're not going to drive through to Central City, are you? Sure, why not? Well, look, man, we're due for a worse blizzard than the last one we had. No, I drove through that and made it almost on time. Young fella, your roof leaks like a sieve. They can sense this is what makes life interesting, old timer. Keeps you young. I don't like the way you agree with me.  In fact, sunny or... Stumpy's right. You better stay here.  Yeah? I'll have to put down 15 to 20-foot drifts to stop that diesel-job of mine. That's real power there, boy. See you later. Lefty, use your common sense. I am. You know as well as I do that there's not going to be any 15-foot drifts. Big prayer, I get 15-foot drifts.  We can stay for a couple of minutes, so I want you to listen closely to what I have to say. Go ahead, Bill. Shoot. I've heard through the grapevine that the boys out here on the big prairie are laughing at the Blizzard warning. Oh, you heard right. You'd better get ahold of the influential men out here and talk some sense into their heads before it's too late. This Blizzard coming our way is going to be a humdinger. The granddaddy of them all.  Well, I understand, Bill, but I don't believe it. And you can't blame us for feeling the way we do. I haven't time to argue the point, because we've got to get back to our equipment so we can help fight the storm. But mark my words. Tell the farmers out here to take heed or they might be sorry. Awfully sorry. Let's go, man. State gear, rope, lights, blankets, and stimulant, big broods cabin. Fine, Henry. Keep the motor idling so we can be ready to go in a moment's notice. Right. Hey, look at it snowing outside. What? What? The biggest silver dollars? That's why we got to be ready. Good and ready. Yeah, you said it. I have a feeling that this is going to be one we're not going to forget for a long time. The rotary plows are in good shape, sonny, and I got their cabins, jackpool, and stuff we might need to help out. That's fine, old jammer. The snow won't be as ready. The boys at airport have skis on patrol plane. Good work, lay wolf. Now we're ready for anything. Well, let's go back in the office and set up our cuts.  Sounds good to me. Let's get some shut-eye. Shut-eye good. Maybe last we get for a long time. Pasted, but for real. Well, say we're getting pasted. By the ton. Get Stumpy and Grey Wolf up. I'll make breakfast. Okay. Oh, and roll them out of the sack and open the door, pal. I'll get them up. Come on, get it, fellas. Isn't fancy, but... All right, I'll get it. Ranger headquarters. Oh, yes, Doc. For sure. Sure, we'll be right out. Goodbye. Grab what you can of breakfast, Henry, and run. Grey Wolf, Stumpy, you fellas stand by here and use your own judgment and calls for help. Come on, pal. We'll take big proof. Let's begin, merry-go-round, until storm over. Yeah, picture down, snow, a blessing. Doc Wilkins, he's out at the Sims Ranch. That little girl has appendicitis. You can't get through the snow to get her to the hospital. Big Brutal get through all right. Look at the way this cat shoves those drifts back where they belong. Turn the radio on, pal. That way we can keep our ear to and for trouble. Right. Here's the Sims place. Boy, we can't see more than 50 feet ahead of us. You said it. I'll pull as close to the house as I can and then turn around. You take over the controls then. I want to talk to the doc. Okay. Okay, take over. I'll be back shortly. How is she, Doc? Not too bad, but we can't wait. Should we take her in Big Brutal? No, sir. Why not? I can only see 50 feet. You follow us in your car. If Big Brut falls off the road, you'll see it and stop at once. I see. Well, let's get going. Right. All set? Yeah. Let me take the controls, Henry. We lose the road. I don't want it to be your responsibility. Now, hang on. Bill the Grey Wolf. I will see. I'm bringing in Doc Wilkins, the Sims girl and her parents. They're following us in Doc's car. Now, Stumpy meet us at the intersection of Highway Z and 4. Tell the old timer to get out there fast with a rotary plow. We'll proceed out Highway Z to the stranded bus and plow the highway to Carver's Corners for the bus. Over and out. How's the doc making out back there, Henry? Pretty good. He's right behind us. I guess that helps keep the snow off his windshield. Once in a while, Mr. Sims hangs out the window and knocks his snow off. Fine. We'll meet Stumpy in half an hour. Bill, that big cat of yours sure has power. Sure has, Barney. It's really two cats in one. Yeah? Well, whatever it is, it sure does the job. These passengers have you to thank for getting them to safety. How much snow do you have out there, Smart Barney? 25 inches with drifts to 15 feet. Hey, what's that? The roof! Get the people out of here! Get back. Henry's in the cab now, listening to the radio. There's more calls for help coming through. Have you got any diesel fuel left? Officially, no. Unofficially, yeah. What do you mean? Well, I thought I'd better try to conserve what I had, Bill, just in case it was needed for an emergency, like filling up Big Brew. We've got to keep that big cat going. Bill, a call just came through. What happened? Lefties just showed up in Central City. Hasn't showed up? No. As soon as Big Brew's fuel tank is full, we'll get out and look for him. There's the ship, Indo. I know, but look at those drifts. They're alive. Just keep an eye out for Lefty's truck. Roughly 50 miles. Roughly is right. I don't see any signs of life, but it's Lefty's truck all right.  Just a minute. I want to clear some space around the truck for our own safety. Hold on. Okay. Huh? What's the matter? No, why does it go? On top of the truck with a canvas is flapping. Here's a man's foot. Great Scott, you're right. Come on. Is Lefty all right? He must be almost frozen to death. Not almost, pal. I'm falling. Is he dead? Yeah. He took one chance too many. Bill, you said that this snow is a blessing from the Lord? It is, pal. This snow is worth millions of dollars. It's too bad Lefty couldn't have lived to take fat cattle to market. Instead of skinny steers. Yeah. You can't defy all rules of common sense and still live to enjoy the Lord's blessings. Well, see you next week for more adventure with...
