Good morning, Brad. If you would please test your audio and visual, that would be great. Morning, Brad. Morning. All right. Eileen, can you hear me? I can, thank you. Wow. I think it has me down as a host, so. Oh, no, that's me. Yeah. Well, anyway. Well, good morning, everyone. We'll go ahead and is everyone here? I think we have a quorum, I believe. Donna has some business to attend, sort of an emergency. She has to cover the desk. So we'll go ahead and get started. I'll call the meeting to order. So before I continue, I have to read this advisement. So I'll go ahead and do so. So I'll call the meeting to order. So due to the provisions of the governor's executive orders, N25, 20, and N29, 20, which has spent certain requirements of the Brown Act and the order of the health officer of the county of Sonoma to shelter in place to minimize the spread of COVID-19, the center is a tourism business improvement area board committee will conduct today's meeting in a virtual setting using the Zoom webinar. Community members and staff are participating from remote locations and are or practicing appropriate social distancing. Members of the public may view and listen to the meeting as noted on the city's website and as noted on the agenda. Members of the public wishing to speak during item three, public comments, or doing our public hearing items will be able to do so by utilizing that raise hand feature there on the Zoom platform and or pressing star nine on their phone if they wish to do so. All right, so thank you. So, Madam Secretary, could you please take roll call? Let the record reflect that all members are present with the exception of Santa materia. Great, thank you. All right, and then now we open it up for public comments that are not on the agenda. Anybody hear from the public? I would like to provide some comments, please. In addition to no raise hands, we did not receive any voicemails or emails for this meeting. Thank you, Madam Secretary. All right, so moving on. We have item three, which is a style announcements and item 3.1 actually, we currently have a seat opening on the Center for Business Improvement Area Advisory Board. Unfortunately, a good friend, Vern Lacosta, has moved on to another opportunity, so we wish him well. So basically this means that we'll be seeking replacement from a full service hotel. So I don't know if anything else needs to be added. Brad, do you have any comments? Okay, and basically what that means is that I'm not sure how this recruitment takes place, but there are just a few full service hotels within the city. And once we identify an individual, I will need to then go to council with the staff report and other documents prepared. And I understand that might be an opening sometime in October for us to do so. And basically through the staff report and the presentation we'll be making a recommendation to the council and therefore the council will approve this individual to serve on the SRTBIA board. And I understand that that's the protocol and procedure under this ordinance. All right, any comments from the public related to that item? There are no raise hands at this time. Thank you. All right, so moving on, we got a couple of minutes that we need to approve from prior meetings including one of the meetings that we held on May 27th of 2021 as well as the minutes that we held for our special meeting on July 12th to approve the annual report and work plan for 2021-2022. So I don't know if our small group here has had an opportunity to look at those minutes. I'll move to approve both of those. Okay, I second. All those in favor to approve the minutes, say aye. Aye. Okay, any opposed? All right, so minutes approved for all of those two meetings. And as I move on here on the agenda under item five we have event support applications. We happen to have three applications. So we're gonna dive right into item number 5.1 which is the motor sports at the family, sorry, motor sports at the family fun fest. That is an event going from August 6th through August 8th and the agenda has the attached application. So we'll go ahead and have a discussion now regarding that particular item. The event as I said is August 6th through the 8th is the live monster truck performance to be held at the Sonoma County Fairgrounds. I believe they have applied for funding in the past. The total cost of the event is $62,000. They request this $2,500. And in terms of room nights, they are expecting that they could potentially have between 100 to 250 room nights here in Santa Rosa throughout the time of the event. I guess I'll jump in. My thoughts on this are, and I believe this is how I voted last time, not to support, this seems to be, I feel like we're kind of becoming a permanent funding source. I don't see that many rooms coming in from out of town. They have monster truck events in Ukiah and every other town around here. I love monster trucks, don't get me wrong. I'll probably take my kids to this, but I don't see it as putting heads in beds and it's also on a weekend in the summer when historically speaking, we really don't need the assistance. That's my thoughts. Okay, any further discussion? All right, any comments? Well, I was just gonna say, member Anderson, are you feeling like zero? Is the appropriate level? Are you committed to that number? Is there a sense of any support at all? My vote would be zero, but I mean, I'm not rolling anything off the table, but in Todd's world, that would be my vote. It does sound like the event organizers working with Sandman Hotel for Rooms, and again, they're predicting 100 to 250 rooms a night. So the funds, I'm not sure if they're for marketing purposes or... I realize Sandman had it in the room. Yeah, it says assist with media advertising, marketing, lodging, and site fees, is what they're claiming. I mean, I've been on this, not this board, but the visit to Santa Rosa board for a while, and it seems like we've consistently sponsored, and I just feel like we're kind of becoming a permanent funding source, instead of what our intended purposes, as far as I understand it, to help events start up, bring people from out of the city into the city to put heads in beds. That's my thoughts. Yeah, and eventually I'd like to have a more robust conversation about, sometimes these meetings are mainly for the purpose of going through these applications. I'm wondering if there's other things eventually that we can do as a board to support, to continue supporting tourism, especially as we continue to sort of come out of this horrific pandemic that has just been devastating for the hospitality industry. Well, and that's another thing also. I mean, I'm not sure what this is doing with this new variant of COVID that's coming out. Now we're saying, okay, we all have to mask again, whether we're vaccinated or not. By August, I'm, well, I guess it's not that far away. Yeah, this is, how are they gonna do, the event is what, in two weeks? Yeah. How are they gonna mark it? All right, so again, like the member Rumble mentioned, it doesn't sound like you're supporting this at all. I'm very rumbled with what are your thoughts in terms of the point. But I think we've funded nothing to date, right? Just in the overall COVID context or am I mixing things up? I believe we've funded Sonoma County Pride. That's right, that's right. We've funded Sonoma County Pride and I'm sorry, I was just looking back at our notes to answer member Anderson's questions. We have sponsored monster trucks. It looks like going back, I can tell for sure, going back to 2015. So for quite a while that I can see with the notes that I have. With the exception of 2020, right? Yes, not total, but I'm looking as far back the first time we funded that the SRT-VIA provided marketing funds was back in 15. I'd have to look year by year. It looks like we did do in 16, 17, 18, 19. And then 20 was canceled. So every year since 15 all the way through 19. Can I ask you how much in funding do we have to give out? For this year, 20,000, we've done five, but that 20 assumes revenues for third and fourth quarter also, which we are on target. So we are on target to make that 20, but revenues were a little bit more aggressive. So if the stealth variant does shut things down or change things, that will obviously change. If we keep going on the pace we are, we are in okay shape, funding-wise. And then I think then on top of that, I think we matched that. That's total. That's total. That's for both organizations. So we've approved five out of 20 total. So I definitely would like to have that conversation, Raphael, at a later date about how we can, work to support the hospitality industry in total. I think that's a really important conversation to have. Specific to this motion, I'd throw 500 bucks or something that would get some regional online advice done, rather than zeroing it out altogether. If that's the minority opinion, I'm not going to lose sleep over it though. I would probably support that. It's a family event that people have been hooked up and I know that a lot of folks here in Sissoma County love the monster trucks. And hopefully there's a lot of folks that come visit. We do need the spending dollars, but I'm also concerned about the variance and such. And given that it's two weeks away, I'm not so sure how much advertising will be conducted. However, if they're claiming that up to 250 rooms could potentially be booked, then that's wonderful. And they seem to be working with the Sandman Hotel, which again was closed for quite a while while they were hosting people under quarantine. So I'm okay with 500 dollars. I would support it on the condition or I would ask, I should say, did we get a pickup report from Santa Ana to see how many rooms actually booked? Yeah, I think that's a good idea. And we always do that with any follow-up, so. Do we have any previous years follow-up with how many rooms actually booked? I don't have that in front of me. We would in our system, but I don't have it immediately available. I'll make a motion to approve 500. Yeah, I second. All those in favor? All right. Any opposed? Okay. And I think they didn't skip the comments from the public, right? Just to clarify, are we doing that 500 for marketing outside of Napa, Marin, Sonoma Lake and Mendocino like we have done in the past? It sounded like I heard that it's for, I think Peter mentioned making sure it's for marketing. Todd mentioned it too, so. I would want it outside of Sonoma Lake, then. I would agree. Oh, yes, so just for logistics, protocol, sorry. I mean, do we have any comments from the public? There are no raised hands at this time. Okay, so motion approved to fund $500 for the motor sports at the family fun test. Thank you. All right, so. Marketing outside. Yes, Napa, I mean Sonoma. Which is what we have required of them before, so. And for then to provide another day for a wrap up regarding how many rooms were eventually booked at the Sandman. Which we do receive. Yes, and that close report. Okay, so the next item, thank you. All right, next item is actually the next application is 5.2. It's the, I'm not sure what this means, but it's the DJFE Triathlon Race Series. It sounds like an exciting opportunity. It's a returning event, their seventh year. It's open to families. It's pretty much open to everyone. It's held at the Finley Aquatic Park Center. Their request is $1,500. However, the total cost of the event is around $5,500 according to what I have here. And again, the funds would be used for marketing, assuming that it's outside of Sonoma County. Yes, it is stated here in the application. Perhaps 50 rooms or so, 150 athletes. And I don't know, I think it's got the potential to grow eventually or continue to grow, I mean, but because of COVID again, they're being very cautious. So they want to, I guess, do some minimal advertising eventually. So, and it could be held on September 26th, which I'm not sure if that's, I don't remember if that's big time or not. I certainly like this event as it fits within what we're trying to build as a brand for our community. Bringing athletes back to town is a really, I think smart thing for us to do and to show that we can do an athletic event. So I'd be supportive of the full amount here, although I'll wait to make a motion until we have a conversation. And I do note that the organizer is available here through the chat. Very well. Do you have anything to add? Yeah, I would support this as well. I think it's a good event. I think these events bring people in overnight because they're not gonna show up in the morning, drive in in the morning, run and swim and all that good stuff and then drive home again. And bike. Yeah, and bike, yeah. Yeah, bike is a missing aspect to that one. Just keep biking and home ago. I agree too, I think this is a good event. I would support this for the amount requested. Yeah, I would support it too. And I just wanna add that with the Ironman, basically sort of being gone, the Rampondo moving away from the city. Yeah, I mean, I definitely like this event as well. And so I will support it for the full amount as well. Do we have any comments from the public? I mean... There are no raised hands at this time. Okay, so somebody wanna make a motion too. I'll move to approve the full amount requested. 1500, I believe. All right, I'll go ahead and second that. All those in favor, say aye. All right, aye. Any opposed? Yeah, all right. So we'll... If we could do the same with, was it from our professional marketing outside the Sonoma County? Yes, correct, yeah. And then any other comments from the public, Eileen? There are no raised hands at this time. Very well. All right, so motion approved. For the full amount of their request. Thank you. All right, and then lastly, there is one more and I wonder if I... Oh, here it is. I have it. Okay, so this one is the... I believe it's their first time applying as the historic real world square summer music stroll, student and art show, August 22nd. And then I guess there's another date that it's taking place September 26th. The application state that they will be opening the marketing to folks that are taking the train outside of Sonoma County is to be held at historic real square for the district and Wilson Street and David Street. The total event cost is approximately $1,000. The request is 500, which is sort of half of what the event is costing. And the funding would be for marketing, advertising, printing, flyers, stipend and so on. However, I don't see any information related to how many rooms this... How many room nights this would bring to Santa Rosa. So I'm not sure if maybe they missed that section or anticipated attendance is 150 to 300, just promoting verbal square musicians. Hopefully people from out of town will show up and spend the night, but not quite clear. There's no other information. All right, I can't see a bunch of room nights coming out of this one to be honest. And having said that, I think it's a $500 investment to help an event sort of get off the ground isn't a ton of money, but I'm a little less dogmatic about the room night aspect of it. So I recognize that as my blind spot. Yeah, I think it's a great event and everything, but in my opinion, I feel like they're applying for funding from the wrong source. I think this would be more of like a community event, not bringing people in to put heads in beds. They're marketing to Sonoma and Marin and trying to get people to take the train up. So I think they would do that and then put it around and go right back home. There's something else in here. Yeah, they're mainly marketing to Sonoma County. Like I said, I think it's a good event and everything. I just think they're applying for funding from the wrong source. I don't feel this is what our funding is for, you know, it's quite possible. Yeah, my comment is that perhaps we could see how this event eventually unfolds and then depending on what the outcome is eventually for the 22nd and the 26th of September, maybe they'll have just more better information if they decide to apply in the future and then making sort of a gauge who actually came from out of town and if the five hotels within Reynolds Square proximity had an increase in activity due to the events. So I'm okay with your suggestions or comments as well. And I can count, so that's fine with me. Yeah, Eileen, do we have comments from the public? We have no raised hands at this time. So, unfortunately at this time, it sounds like we will not be approving the final. I think you probably still need to make a motion though to take that action. So, Todd, Peter, you wanna make a motion? No, I'll make a motion to tonight of funding for this application. I'll second. All those in favor, say aye. Aye. Okay, any votes? Any other comments, I mean, on the public? There are still no raised hands at this time. Very well, so that comes to the bottom of the list of our agenda. And Peter, like I said, and Brad and Todd as well, maybe we just need to get together soon to kind of talk a little bit more about all these meetings are going and the type of applications that we are receiving. Again, in the beginning of 2020, we did receive quite a lot, which was impressive. And I was very excited, but unfortunately, we had the unprecedented situation in 2020, so it was very unfortunate. But it'll be more discussion related to the search or to fill that seat on this board. So, if there isn't anything else, I'll go ahead and adjourn the meeting. I'd like to thank you all for being here this morning again, and it's always a pleasure to see you all. Good seeing you guys too, thank you. Thank you. Thank you.

I made fresh CUPP alarm INEC says beavers has come to stay 95 million voter registration to elect next President that's what the chairman of INEC is saying wiki appoints 28,000 special assistants for pulling units and I mean is a conversation that we've had was saying between the governor of River state and that of cross river who's topping the chart in terms of having, you know, political appointees tunable governors campaign council and WC meets Push campaign kickoff dates to Buhari a demo not in attendance Obidachi absent as Labour unveils 1234 man presidential campaign council NLC TUC president makes list PDP to tunable you are dazed by Atticus popularity 10,000 police officers undergoing training on digital skills.

I don't know if that is Connected with I mean that that is a reaction to the CUPP's Statement yesterday as a controversial one A real line or greater the CJN six judiciary's independence Some of the stories on the front page of the party look at Mars if time permits us to do so, but Is it going to let's start with the situation in the political parties? It seems that not all is well, you know There's some rumble in the jungles that all the political parties yesterday was a liberal party, you know which was trending we saw that The party allegedly saying that they don't know they're not aware or let's say the way the Nigerian politicians and say they're not aware of The that list that presidential campaign list Which don't cook or Cooper said he is of which he says he's a DG in the list shows some other person as a chairman in the APC we see that From one of the papers they should be the leadership or I think it's Yeah in front of the in front page of the the tribune that the party chairman was not at the Meeting the tinaboo had with the campaign council the national working committee and governance of the party and with the PDP Atiku has suspended his presidential campaign. So I wanted to talk about the situation all these parties I know there are other parties like ADC, but we don't have anything to to to hold on to on the front pages So over to you sir Good morning, Nigeria, and then thanks for having me plus TV Africa and my brothers is there What a day the lovely time and them if he Nigeria and I'm waking up to the reality of what we have in the 2023 2022 electoral act Keep up and discovering that there's really fire on the mountain For the first time and I'm saying this time and time again for the on this time You cannot for the life of you, you know, this means a man like we have in the web of their hand You can't do it. You can't do it. I say it That's anything about we can number one is that he has a he has a heart When you want to do it do something he doesn't he goes out of his way to do it Number two is that he has the results And number three is that over the period he's built some level of influence across What is the weekend? I don't say in reverse day. What is the weekend? I say, you know a good part of Nigeria and All of a sudden what I have always told My I think we could do all along cool down You think there's something about quality that people don't know you're a leader Please be careful about the advice that you get from your followers a lot of time Such advice is from inferiority complex. It's not about you. It's about them They feel that if they allow this person a space that their own space will shrink For instance, even like I'm the king of an area. So to speak Why would I want you to bring somebody of influence into my own area? I'll tell you no no no the guys of what it is or where I between your best interest that I will advise They get because it is not in my interest So political loyalty is personal interest before the boss's interest. A lot of times it's like that Now that is for the PDP and I hope that the better later never will apply in their case When you come to ATC, there's something fundamentally flawed wrong It's called to understand about the presidential candidate. This issue of being absent at every public Forum I really don't know what the game plan is. It just doesn't go down well We see look at what happened yesterday and then what would have expected would have been a day I mean he's come back to say to me, you know Hell and hearty would have been a day for him to go there and shine and put up a certain policy statement Boom, but where was it? It was missing and then the level party level parties. They are doing certain things They're doing well very well, but they are setting mistakes. You should correct and correct fast For instance, if you go to an area you come to a quiet one so to speak and no matter how Insancial that your brahman is please Appeal to the person and say for the sake of what we are doing Let's have this person as a figure here You really want to say so one of their own and then call the two of them in house and say, you know This guy has the capacity to run this that is offer from your state to them and please find who are working together no matter it's like what And APC is doing Going to Northern Nigeria and telling all of the Christians of Northern Nigeria that none of them is good enough to be a vice president I mean the slap it is a slap that I mean you can recover from easily So going back to what I was saying level party has to be careful to To remove the people that are not in this in those areas, you know, you make you make her slowly So the Wisdom is profitable to direct. That's what the Bible says Don't let people feel that they are not good enough in their own land. I mean it's an insult So I believe that they will make those adjustments. They will not let it linger and become talking points They will say oh, sorry, you know, it was a mix of yeah, yeah, we correct it Please don't add you about you don't try to justify it. It's called common sense Just let it be that way when that is done. I think they'll have their way I'm considering the ADC Well, may I be excuse to reserve my comment for now I'm running the compulsion campaign that five of us said I've been very busy in a five Oh going round and getting ready to win the election Okay, so it means well the ADC I'm sure being a party with humans You're all humans who may also have his own internal issues of the campaign I'm not hearing anything about the presidential campaign of of the ADC But but I also would like you to talk about before Mexico comes in the Why political parties have this because you're looking at the like I said the the the APC Has his own issues that letter well-written letter with a lot of good English by Abdullah Senate Abdullah Adam who has not been replaced by a neck till now after I left the Senate and Complaining to Tini Buddha see I don't know this. I cannot recognize this campaign counsel list you put up You know, we're not carried along you have to change and we can see that when they have the meeting yesterday We don't know why he wasn't in attendance But the media the press the papers are making issue of the fact that he wasn't there that's number one number two The liberal party also has issues. It seems the party spokesman is saying they don't know about the list that don't You occupy a release to the world yesterday. So why do we have these things going on? Well, we have this is going on is that there is a certain level of uncertainty and Political parties are still trying to adjust to, you know, the new normal that we have, you know, COVID Got all the concept of the new normal 2023 is unlike any other year and people are slow in Moving into the new reality of election where the votes of the people will count So there is a conflict, you know, a system shock between those institutionalized Incense people who want to do things the way it has always been done Okay, and the people who want to win election who say look it's about mass mobilization of the people I'll talk about the liberal party for instance, you know You know, the ascending state if you take a place like Lagos state You would realize that I hope you're hearing me. We can loud and clear loud and clear Okay, great. If you take a place like Lagos state, it would realize that Technically it's a Eurobust it okay but in terms of police school awareness and You know and and and and the with ability Lagos then has become a cosmopolitan state We're in the indigene are not probably as much as the non and Indigene will tend to have a sentiment towards the apc factor But the non-indigene who are in the majority Would want to lead towards the new normal new cosmopolitan leaders Everybody comes to do this and within that concept they may be compared to look They may be inclined to look at a man like this. I'll be coming in and playing the new game And we need that content with the capacity mobilizer might not be an individual So for you to you may be thinking it doesn't get it a capacity mobilizer, you know And it might have to be a house about it I haven't really been your man and I'm pressing but you see you have to juxtapose that with the traditional Institution who say no, that's to be this is our state remote control So that kind of country of the new normal and the institutionalized thinking will bring a rocking So you ought to have people who are for size who think ahead and because of that It's not to be in and you act to work, you know, that's the entire position so that before the decision is made You've already cleared the ground so that people get to understand Then you do a second afterwards which is now we let your people know for here We're going to have somebody who is like these two types of okay. Is it going to be for the want of time? less delving to another You know issue that's also on the front bonnet and it's about the elections in 2023. Yeah, the punch says that I in security may hamper elections in the Northwest and not East. That's what I like is is saying and There's been a question about the credibility of the elections the Empire Conducting or delivering a free credible elections Do you think that, you know, there's hope for us to have a credible elections in 2023? Especially with the concerns of INEC. They're saying I mean if you look at what's going on in these places deploying Officials to this region and ensuring that Equipment are protected. It's it's a major concern So my question is do you think that in 2023 that the electoral Empire would deliver a free credible elections? The answer is yeah, my answer is my answer is very infacted Yes, why is capital let us bold on the line red? We will be able to have three third credible elections in 2023. Let me tell you how things work When you move your mind Perspective you start to magnify that and eventually you may have that happen That's why the Bible says as a man thinks in his heart. So is he Nigerians cannot afford to as much as A 2023 when we don't have free free and credible elections That's why I like what the UPP is doing the preempt you they put you on the spot They take you on we want to have we don't want any. Oh, we will we will not know we will have credible elections So I net if they are trying to rule I net chairman. Let's talk about it if they are trying to change the divas Let's talk about it now. Not when it is late. So I like what seems to be is doing I like what I net is also doing they look we need to have security taking care of in this place And what that tells you is that if you are wanting to be a prognore in a particular state You better all the party make sure that the Environment is conducive because it is not your election. They don't hold but the rest of Nigeria Elections we hold I can tell you that for free Elections we hold and we will have enough figures to be able to declare a president a winner I can tell you that for free. So let every Nigerian take up the responsibility of making sure that peace is maintained in their area So that we'll be able to have free fair critical elections for I net I'm very much with them And I believe that they will give us as for bevers There is no going to be a no body No demo no demon should have one that's contemplate a river on that because that would be the biggest tragedy I'll say this for free The biggest thing that has happened to Nigeria since 1960 is a introduction of the beaver It's okay. Yeah, I took it. It's okay to be very, you know Positive optimistic Right, but it's also okay to look at the reality and the facts on ground as well and Find the way to solve the problem before, you know, we get to a point where we are saying all we didn't really know And it's a good thing that I neck is sounding whatever It is the consents that you know, they think that this are threats to the elections according to them over 41 attacks have excluding that has been carried out against offices across 14 states since 2019 and You know the 2019 elections general elections, which also affects, you know, the South East and Recording 13 attacks as well. So we're looking at all of this and we understand the security situation Even in recent times just in 2022. There's a lot that has happened in this region and so What do you think that can be done as much as it's okay to say we need to stay positive But what can be done to ensure that, you know, all this is addressed before as as we get closer to 2023 for the elections Good. Let me make a very fundamental statement that we should hold very dear Being pessimistic is not being realistic Being optimistic is not being unreal The Bible says you shall say to this mountain you have knowledge as a mountain But it doesn't stop there pessimistic and mountain But a reality pays to the mountain These are removed So my saying there would be three second elections. It's not being pessimistic. It's not being unrealistic It is all right. I love it on realistic. It is being both optimistic and Practical about it. That's why I commend you people and I did now. What is the mountain in security? What do we do about it? We don't know about it. We don't complain about it We ask ourselves, who are the people? Number one, I sell the top-notch candidate in each of these states You need to have a peaceful environment for you to operate. So join hands Join call everybody. We must have peace. We are the problem Let's walk with the police around with the army. Let Nigeria be part of solving the problem of insecurity Don't only lead it to the army. Is there any positive information you can get across to them give it to the people Is there anybody around you that you think is a tremendous problem? Report it to the police. Find a work. Let it be our Absolute onto our problem. Okay. All right. Do that and of course call your authority You know recently there's been a special way to say oh the army is making progress because the president is More positive by Okay Okay, we have we have to leave that Looking forward to seeing you you in in in full color color next time. Yes It's all good. It's all good. We appreciate your time and your your expert analysis as always Having a next time have a wonderful day Mercy and myself will be back After the short break to look at some developments in the telecommunications sector and the effect of that on The forthcoming elections in 2020 23, please stay with us


Hi everybody, I'm Matthew Miller the Podor project leader and I have a cool laptop to show off here today This is the framework and I was going to do an unboxing video of this, but it was actually this is a version I guess of the older Frame chassis with a new the new motherboard and internals in it and it was sent to me in like developer packaging Not the actual final retail packaging, so I'm not supposed to show that off So I have this from the framework folks basically to help make sure that it runs Fedora Linux nicely And the good news is it really does so I've been playing with this for a couple of weeks and it's awesome And it's a neat computer. There's a whole bunch of stuff about framework out there But I kind of like the modular nature of it so you can put like four USB C ports or you know one USB A and whatever it's neat And that continues to the inside the whole idea that it's basically a repairable sustainable design for a laptop Which as a you know tinker it appeals to me But I think it's also appealing in a lot of different ways just in terms of how we put together things in society So that's cool, and it works really nicely with Fedora Linux 36 and so here I thought well we just branched for the next release That means we're starting to get ready for the Fedora Linux 37 release It should be at the end of October of this year. So that's coming up. So this is very early It's not even a beta yet, but we actually have some nightly builds that work So I booted that up here on one of them and here it looks very nice This is the wallpaper we're putting for that release. So if you haven't seen that already sneak peek and So basically everything just works. It's a really nice laptop and It's a lovely screen lovely features. It's you know your basic Fedora workstation interface here and there is Really nothing super exciting to say because it is so polished I really like the screens a joy to look at here, and it's nice to look at the lovely wallpaper The one thing in the setup guide. So with this new system There is a there's a sensor for the brightness and that uses the same Like internal configuration as the keyboard and there's a conflict in some way So there's a workaround for that if you look on the framework Website for the Fedora Linux guide. It tells you exactly what to run and that makes the keys work again So I'm going to check does that work in this beta or pre beta release yet? Will I something happen when I press the function keys? So function yep function keys for volume play the media keys are working here So those work, but we get to the brightness Okay, no, so that is not fixed yet. That's okay. That's something we'll have to work on for now I guess run that shortcut and that will make it work I've also heard that battery life can be a concern and something also we should work on There's some workarounds that are again available on the framework community site in the meantime I basically running it plugged in so I really pay attention to what those things are but I've heard good results with those And I think getting this to work more nicely would be good I live in the city, so sometimes there's sirens. They're not coming for me. I promise


So you'll have a Q&A session. Anybody in the audience have some burning questions? I have a burning question for Nishant. So actually, I have three questions. Wow, OK. One is simple. One is we keep hearing this PYP scan not being FDA approved, and yet we are using it all the time. It gets covered and blah, blah, blah. What is the disconnect there with that FDA? What's going on out there? That's one. Second, now that you mentioned HTTP, it's fascinating to hear about that one. And you also mentioned the fusion CT imaging. And you also mentioned that the washout is pretty fast. So how quickly do you have to get them to the CT imaging as soon as you're done with the nuclear imaging, right? So the second and the third question is that it could be a $64 million question. I'm just associating, for you to remember, the fee 64 lieu in the way of $64 million question. Is there any specific ethnicity like we have for V121i that's more common in the African-American population? Is there any ethnicity?  That's a lot of them. I'll try to take this one at a time. So the reality is that we actually don't understand exactly what we're imaging with the bone scintigraphy studies. There's some suggestion, at least, that there's microcalcification that's associated specifically with TTR as opposed to AL. But the reality is that we actually don't know why these agents. It was sort of a serendipitous finding, and then we sort of ran with it because we have the ability now. There was a Bocari paper that basically showed that you could differentiate between AL and TTR. But we actually don't really understand the mechanism by what it happens. And there's some work being done by Sarah Cuddy and Charmilla Durbal and others to really understand, can we get more AL or TTR-specific agents that bind actually to the fibrils as opposed to, let's say, microcalcification? So that's coming down the pipeline. But that's part of the reason why we don't necessarily have FDA approval for these things. With respect to the genetic variants, it's not just V64, though. So V30M and other variants as well also don't show up on PYP. There are populations. So for example, I was in South Korea a while ago, and V30M is more prevalent there. We don't understand why, but they have to have the same thing that we just discussed in this case in terms of understanding that they may have PYP and HDP imaging that may not show their patients for the disease that they actually have. You mentioned about HDP and PYP and the timing of SPECT and CT. So the reality is that we're doing SPECT CT. So it's the same machine.  But it's all done in one setting. And it's all done at specific timing. So again, for me, PYP is at about two and a half hours. HDP, I've told my techs no later than two hours, somewhere between one and a half and two hours afterwards. I think that answered everything that you asked. I'll just add to that with regard to the PYP imaging. ASNEC guidelines in 2022 has gotten rid of planar. And it's not just about SPECT. It is about SPECT with CT for formal confirmation. So if your centers aren't doing it with the CT, those are some things I would really advocate for your champion. Because I suspect, Dr. Warner, each of us at this table have seen plenty of false positive PYPs. And these patients think they have a terrible diagnosis and they're getting this very expensive medication. And you can tell them they're actually OK. So you really want to be confident in your diagnosis and use the proper tools. Sam Ibrahim. Thank you, Dr. Vijay. And thank you to all the distinguished speakers. So I just wanted a little bit of clarification, especially with the new guidelines. The clarification is specifically on the role for biopsy. Is there any role now for biopsy, specifically for the diagnosis? I know that the guidelines specifically mentioned that there is a role to rule out, like a false negative. I think one of our speakers is going to be talking about that upcoming. Dr. Butt will be here. It's really important. And again, if there's light chain, this is one of the things I'm interested to see what our speaker says. The big conundrum I have is light chain. We get the bone marrow, and they will do congo red, and they'll do in situ hybridization. But my concern is that that's not the affected organ. And my hematologist will fight. I just took the guidelines to the hematology, saying, you guys, you push back at me, saying, I think we need a cardiac biopsy. And we really do. And again, we send everything to Mayo for mass spec. It's formal and fixed. It's super easy. So you can take formal and fixed tissue. I don't even trust my local lab for congo red. Now, if it's positive, fine. Because I've had a couple where I go, like, I'm sorry. And I send it to the armed forces. Because we usually want to see that before we do paid Mayo Clinic, the money for the mass spec. But there really is important role. And that's why we have a dedicated talk to that. And the more important thing is also the false negatives as Nishan talked about. And I will say, as we're working on this project with Dr. Dev, where we're going back and we're doing automated screening using Davey score, I've come across patients that all these grade ones that we never pursued, I have a lot of patients that had a level one PYP or even zero that I still have a very high concern. Conversely, I had one of my patients that unfortunately went to heart surgery. They didn't do the biopsy. And we think his PYP was because he had a heart attack. So one of the false positives is myocardial infarction. And I'm old enough to say I remember the days when we used PYP, when we were equivocal about a heart attack. And it's often positive that with two to three week period. And so I had to re-scan because the MRI and all that.  But it's very important. The role of biopsy is very important. And I'm glad we're gonna have a session on that. And I would just like to add two pearls to that because Dr. Warner alluded this to her slide. So there is a role for a non-tissue diagnosis, but as you learn this morning, 20 to 25% of trans-thermetine patients will have an MGUS. So MGUS must go under the skin. So anytime your patient has an MGUS, you must go under the skin. And I'd encourage you to target the tissue that is most affected. Because a fat pad is a potential tool, non-invasive, but the yield for amyloidosis, 70%, TTR. Some reports anywhere from 30 to 50, but I would say 100% sensitive and specific if it's in the heart, you can go there. I have one question from Carl Finley here. Thanks. So thank you to the team for the talk. You mentioned sort of, and this may be an unfair question, but you mentioned sort of some of the treatment options that are on the horizon that are around depletion. I mean, obviously we have stabilizers. And just from a thought process and mechanistically, what are your thoughts on maybe foreseeing what that might look like in terms of heart restructure or whatever the case would be as a depleter therapeutic? So I think this is hopefully the role of the clinical trial. I'm excited to see what these actually mean and whether or not we'll see some reverse remodeling. And I think Dr. Shaw actually alluded even to the world of stabilizer therapy. What we're seeing thanks to the work of Dr. Fontana out of the UK and others, we are actually seeing changes on these imaging tools in terms of the extracellular volume and things like that. So in the depleter trial, I'm curious, if these amyloid fibrils are really gonna melt away, what kind of cardiac reverse remodeling will that look like and what will that mean from a clinical, impactful standpoint? Because that's one thing to have remodeling, but if it's not changing quality of life, life longevity for the patient, I don't know. So I wish I had the answers, but I'm hoping the trials that are in the pipeline and are evolving in phase two and soon to be phase three will give us more answers. But they will be looking at those parameters. I think there's a lot of exciting things with one thing that I usually, I do follow besides my NTPRO BNP proponents, I follow prealbumin. And it's important that you know the effect of the treatment on the prealbumin, which is your stabilized TTR. I've had some patients start very low when I've identified with prealbumin levels as low as 12, but typically should be above 25.  When you're silencing it goes down. That's why if I have somebody in a clinical trial, I keep myself blinded. But what I think is fascinating is we're looking at gene editing is that we now have many years of experience with gene silencers in terms of safety, which was the biggest issue is vitamin A. And just with daily supplement, we haven't seen vitamin A deficiency. And again, as we pointed out that's about, you can silence about 90% of circulating TTR, but there's still separate TTR in the cerebral spinal fluid and in the corovary plexus that are not affected. And it's only the liver production. So we have good safety in gene silencing that we haven't seen vitamin A deficiency or other factors with those interventions. Just real quickly to go back to a point that Alberto made about myocardial infarction. I wanted to add one other thing that it's also true for acute myocarditis as well. So there's something about the sort of, post injury milieu that allows the tracers to sort of accumulate within the myocardium. So it's not just myocardial infarction, but also myocarditis. So there's important reasons for you to wait to do the imaging. And so I just wanted to add that piece. I will say that there are, as Julie mentioned, besides Mariana's data, there is some data from some of the other trials, some of the other silencer trials that suggest that there is at least some potential for reversal or at least stabilization of kind of at least measures by echo or other things. So imaging will help us understand whether or not we're at least stabilizing patients in addition to the important parts about saving their lives, obviously, and then giving them improved quality of life. So imaging, I think, is gonna have a much more important role as we get more and more therapies into the pipeline. This has been a wonderful discussion. I was just gonna mention one other thing about something known as seeding. We learned from liver transplant that we saw that people were seeding even after we gave them a new liver and that these therapies seem to prevent that seeding of normal TTR in these settings. So that's been an important thing that these interventions do allow breakdown of amyloid fibrils. Yeah, wonderful session brought to light so many of things that we know we know and what we know we don't know, right? The mechanism of how the neurotracers uptake becomes positive in TTR amyloidosis and the different conditions that can mimic this and hence clinical suspicion, high clinical suspicion should always be first step. Thank you. Thank you.


What's good job your boy Ross back again with another video so Got to talk about the spoiler side of things when it comes to the movie spiral Want to give my thoughts and opinions from the things I remember I'm watching it at the theater and I like I said in my spoiler free video It was cool to be able to come back to the theater Theaters again and watch a movie and the big screen in the surround sound So let's start with pretty much the main plot of this is Chris Ross character Zeke Banks is a great cop. He's a good cop He pretty much snitched on another cop for killing an innocent man and then trying to cover it up He got that cop locked away But in doing that all the other cops in the station looked at him as a traitor as a rat as a snitch So he was never really beloved by anybody else pretty much after that then There was a situation with him with some of the other Detectives where Chris Rock character needed some backup. They didn't want to help him get back up he ended up getting shot because of it and Chris Rocks father played by Samuel L. Jackson Marcus bank was you know the chief at the time So, you know, he is you know upset with everyone else But also at the same time his father is One of the main people that was covering up all the dirty stuff that the cops were doing He knew they were doing stuff. He knew they were killing people, but he never really said anything about it So he was also upset with Chris Rocks character for snitching on another officer so I thought that whole dynamic of all these cops are really scumbags and There's only really one good cop in the force trying to make an actual change I thought that was interesting.   He he's not one for you know cops Just killing people for the sake of killing people and then covering up So I know those types of cops are out there, but it was just interesting that they went that route I enjoyed it and then the new chief Marisol Nicole's not sure so if I'm mispronouncing it plays captain Angie and she's one of the new chiefs and She was also working with Chris Rocks father in this film and she also knew the dirty stuff that they were covering it up So it's it was literally just this jigsaw killer or copycat Going after all the police everyone that's in a trap in this movie our police officers and I'm gonna get to the The twist towards the end of this video, but I definitely want to talk about the traps Uh, I mentioned in my spoiler free video that the traps were um, they were brutal and yes, they were The very first trap you get introduced to a guy is being I want to say he's his wrist is tied behind his back with barbed wire and he's like on his stool and his Tongue is protruded out and it's on his device and it's like his tongue is like nailed between this device and basically all he has to do to get free Is kick the stool from under his feet Because he's right above these like train tracks Like he's hanging right above the train like a little subway train area All he has to do is kick the stool from under his feet the weight Will rip out his tongue as he falls down But he only has like maybe a few minutes to do this If not the train that's hitting him That what is a train that's coming his way at fast speed that's going to hit him and obviously By time the conductor sees someone hanging up in the middle of the trackway They can't stop it takes hundreds and hundreds of feet for them to stop fully They would have to see that miles down the road Obviously he does not make it was a very intense scene He ends up getting obliterated by these splatters and it's funny. He finally jumps down The timing of it he jumps down rips his tongue about tongue out But it doesn't matter because the train's already there Like you might as well just brace for impact, bro. But yeah Once that was the setup trap, you know, all these soft moves have a setup trap And that was the setup trap to start off the whole movie.  I'm I'm I'm I'm I'm all for it. I know that sounds sick, but I'm all for it Um, I want to say the next trap After that finger trap One of the officers one of the detectives He's like in this type of tub situation and there's water And then there's like this copper wire is electrified wire that's just sitting right above the water and there's this contraption That's wrapped around each of one of his fingers like this barbed wire mesh that's wrapped around each one of his fingers tightly and basically what he has to do is There's like this little face plate on and when he bites down on the face plate gives him the option to bite down on it The chains that are connected to the end of his fingers wrapped around the the wires the little gloves on his fingers He has to get to this point this leverage point where his body can't go any further And one by one his fingers will get pulled off He has to do that before the water fills up in this tub area and it reaches the live wire Or he'll get electrocuted and that that was a very Very brutal scene not even gonna lie to you shout out to my mans though he He tried you know i'm saying he definitely gave it a shot You know his fingers was just constantly ripping off. It was brutal, but it didn't matter because by time it He was getting to the last fingers Uh, he was getting electrocuted and fried. So he ended up dying.  She ends up getting trapped in there Uh end up getting gas and basically she She's like on this waterboard contraption.  That's still brutal, but no No, it wasn't water that was coming out of the pipe. It's actual hot wax Falling on to her face and basically what she has to do. She's laying down strapped down on this little table situation There's this blade This is blade right under her neck and she basically has to cut her spinal cord In order for the hot wax to stop flowing. I want you to understand. She was screwed in this trap, bro She has to sever She has to actively make sure she paralyzes herself for the rest of her life or to get hot wax poured on you till you die And like I said, these traps are like damn near impossible to pass you can technically pass it, but after if you were to manage to pass these tests or these um These games you would be forever Permanently scarred in ways where I don't even think you would like really appreciate life You know these traps weren't made for victims to win these traps were made for them to suffer and die And this was uh, it was brutal the hot wax falling on her face She's and she can't really just you know make the the movement Of her severing her spinal cord quick. She's laying on it She has to move back and forth on her neck. Oh my god. That was that was a cringe a very cringe worthy scene Chris rock ends up figuring it out. He goes down there to try to save her Um, and ultimately he gets there too late.  Not gonna lie to you. So she ends up dying Then we get to an interesting trap So, uh, chris rocks get captured and you see the his he's handcuffed But you see like this This like I want to say like uh, if you guys remember the first movie where dr. Gordon cut off his foot It's the same saw he tries to cut the handcuffs from this pipe He doesn't then it looks like he's about to cut his hand, but obviously My man's not about to do that. He sees his bobby pin on the ground He grabs it with the saw and he's able to pick the lock and he's good There's a person chained up the person that's chained up is the detective that chris rocks character Um told on for killing someone innocent. He was a dirty cop. He got sent to jail.  I think his name was jeff Uh, the guy that was super slow and didn't really save nobody in that movie all of those people died brutally It wasn't because he was trying to help them. He he was just sitting there. That's basically chris rock situation He could either save this guy or let this guy die And brah it this one was it was it was I wouldn't say it was like different in a sense of Pretty ingenious.   It was brutal, bro Not gonna lie ultimately chris figures out the riddle to figure out where the key is But it's too late. He ends up dying. He tries to save him He even takes some a few glass shards himself to try to save the guy But ultimately he was not able to and that guy dies So we're finally getting to the epic twist, right? We're getting to the epic twist detective william is chris rocks new partner or what that you get introduced to him in the beginning of the movie You find out that he Is behind it all He fakes his own death You find out why he's doing this that person that Um, that innocent person that got killed by the detective had a son So when chris rock came up there and was trying to figure out what was going on while there was a person dead He looks in there and he sees The son The son was watched. He watched the whole thing happen. He sees the son. He tells the son, you know the child to Don't say nothing be quiet.  He wants to you know, he wants to work on he wants to know Who are the dirty cops if they're if they're dirty cop just send them to me Send them to me. Let me know. I'll take care of the rest. You know how to do that That's what he wants to do. He wants to fix the system from within That's his goal or whatnot. It's an admirable goal. It's just a really messed up way to go about it, but That's hot. That's the mega twist and you kind of can tell something is up because Throughout the movie chris rocks character gets packages sent to the to the station he gets packages sent to the station and you can You know each package is detailing who's you know, who was the next victim And one of the packages comes in as his partner as his part You know like you know like one of his partner's body parts But it really wasn't it was just a kind of like a fake out You know saying he thought his partner got killed by jigsaw.  They usually kill themselves Whatever technically he wants to go on So that's when I knew he's not dead and he's probably the jigsaw killer the new jigsaw killer Because they never showed his death and that to me is bad storytelling in the sense of If they would have did some type of way to write him off where it's believable Okay, but they wrote him off and it's like Um, we didn't even see him die and you know saying he's an important character in this film If an important character is gonna die You're gonna see it.  So, you know, Chris rocks like, all right, man Well, like what's going on here? I'll work with you. He's all right.  It's pretty much pouring like draining his blood into these vials like these glass Vials or whatnot. William does detective.    It's still his dad So he ends up shooting the target a little spiral target above he falls down or whatever But it's really still the trap is still going as he does that He ends up fighting with william and the elevator start beating his ass Or whether he's are fighting with him in a like this elevator shaft He used the last of the bullets uh to shoot the the spiral target and The swat team is coming in and his dad knows something's up because it's like there's just wire And once it's open once that door is open that the swat team's trying to go up trying to get into And the trap will ultimately be activated.  And as they open in the door Sam jack's body's being lifted up like a puppet jigsaw new mascot in this movie He's like this weird pig puppet or whatnot like a little marionette puppet That's basically his new mascot in this film and that's kind of how He was being portrayed sam jack. He had these strings above him that's hooked up into his body and One of the things is pulling up a shotgun And of course the swat team don't know anything about it They just see this guy dangling and all they see is his hand pulling up a shotgun Granted, he's not pulling it up. It's the mechanism that is So he's trying to tell, you know, chris rocks trying to tell them no and they open up fire Or whatnot because they don't know any better.  They riddle him with bullets. He's dead the other dude Um, the other dude william gets away in the elevator shop. I don't know why no one didn't even go I mean, I get it. They were all their focus was on on Sam jack being a puppet But no one looked to their right. All they had to do was look to their right those elevators Who wouldn't large like elevators that you put like like sofas and you move furniture and they're heavy They're large and loud all they had to do was look and they could have seen the guy Descending down because those elevators are loud, but no one looked they didn't see so he he ends up just descending down and No one ends up stopping them and that's how the movie ends With chris rock his father being killed and you know, all these other officers being murdered So i'm not sure it's gonna be a sequel But like I said, I enjoyed it for what it was and for your fan of the song movies I think you guys will probably enjoy this as well. So comment down below. Let me know What was your favorite trap from this film and by favorite? I mean brutal like One of those traps that just made you super squeam squeamish made you cringe made you look away What trap made you feel like that in this film comment down below Let me know. I appreciate all the love and support roll to 40k appreciate y'all kicking it with me And I'll see y'all in the next one. Peace


I appreciate it. Thank you. Chair, we're there. Thank you. Thank you. Mike, how are you? It may still be warm from the President of Columbia. It's all thanks to you. I heard your statement. Hi, Speaker. I'm Central American. I shouldn't have agreed. That's a good move. Well, yeah, I think maybe we've got a chance with this. Although I was going to say I don't know how free the government of Nicaragua is, I think they may have to take orders. The Ortega brothers, I've always figured were Soviet agents. What was it about the court? What were we doing? Yes. Did he go out and say so? Matter of fact, he's got to see a Ortega. That's true. But I think the Ortega brothers were trained Soviet agents. You know, this whole thing, the heroism now attributed to Sandinia, I guess was his name, for which the Sandinistas are named.   But I am presenting to the Secretary of the Treasury a check for one million dollars from our inaugural fund, which we are turning over to the Treasury Department as a gift. Thank you, Mr. President. We appreciate that very much. It is indeed the first time I've ever received a check for million dollars. And I think the deficit reduction fund would be a good use for this. My pleasure. Let's see the check. Here we go. Thank you, sir. All right. Mr. Frank Hodson. Hello, Mr. President. How are you, sir? Great pleasure for me to share one of these with you. I don't know. This is something almost you might say what I did all the time. I was in Hollywood. I many times gave them out. I don't know what ever gave them to me. I was the actor. That's what I think you're the director. It was a great honor. Best picture ever. Well, I thought you'd be pleased because it's your endowment. And I think we got it during your period as president. And I think that's a tribute to the whole administration. So I think you're very primitive all of you. Thank you very much, Mr. President. I appreciate it. Also looking forward to the National Medal of Arts, which will begin now. Thank you very much, sir. I sure appreciate it. Thank you. High-five. Thank you. And we just have to talk to you. John Schwann. Yes, hello there. Good to see you again. See you again. It's been a couple of years now. That's right. Me too. We're doing a fine job. Mario, thank you very much. You've been a priority all the time. Will. Pleased to see you and my daughter Maureen speaks very highly of me. The honor of being in her presence last night. Oh. Well, I've enjoyed it together with Ms. Kilpatrick. Yeah. It's been an honor to her last night. Moving into the night. But listen, we also appreciate your position during the Grenada affair and your support of that. We are. We are. And we want you to let you know. I understand you've been up in the hill about the, we're not going up there about the convention tax. I've been up there and had an opportunity to speak with the Chairman's to back with, to back with the President. Well, we want to help if we can. I'd like to see that done. I appreciate all the help that you've been giving us. I feel confident with your support, which I know you stand behind with something that could possibly happen. All right. I really appreciate the opportunity to see you again. I wish you well. Well, good to see you. Thank you. Thank you very much. Right. Right here. Thank you. Great. Hi, how are you? Good to see you. Good to see you. Yeah. Long time. Last time I was with yours in short. Yeah. Ready to run. Yes. Hello there. Just a surprise and a lot of key. Yeah. Nice to see you. Mr. President, bill. Thank you. Nice to meet you. Nice to meet you. I'm sorry to be very proud. Thank you. Right here. Right here. President, Lain Adams. John Sands, greetings to you. Thank you. President, Chairman working on this. Very nice to see you. Well, yes, you know the, some of every one of the country feels about what you did. And I understand that Boston College, it was varsity lacrosse. in the snow skier, and swimming, and that's the only one I could find in the relationship. I think that was one of my scores. Oh, yeah, it was one of my scores. Training for the Ironman. In the white, or the big Ironman triathlon in the white. It's only two and a half miles. It's like the 112th run of the marathon, back to back. And I know that you've already been in a completely triathlon, where out of 500 athletes you were the only one that was able to do that. You've got a good memory of that. You've done something that I think is a great service to the mankind and humanity. Your courage has been a beacon to all of us. I think you yourself represent the word courage, and being shot in the coming shot. I think people should really recognize that as well. Demonstrate courage in a way, and you sure represent unique fashion. Well, thank you for that. Now one thing I want to ask, I understand that I know all about your station in California. Of course, because I go all the time about that. But I understand that the hardest was Southern New Mexico, the Continental Divide. Western New Mexico, we were up about 8,000 feet, it was 14 inches of snow. And the wind was about 40 miles an hour, and you're out there in the open. Sometimes you ask yourself, why am I out here doing this? You know, I never thought of it in connection with the snow in the season. Of course, that was the way it would be. Yeah, you ran into a lot of snow. People mistake New Mexico for summers. They haven't went through it, too. No, well, so they can't go through that in the open. Oh, yeah, it's tough. But you got through it, and you helped out a lot of people. There's a lot of awareness from the American Cancer Society, which was very instrumental in my run. Thanks to them. You know, I was able to accomplish it. Well, they have something to thanks for you. This is the American Cancer Society Award. We're the first in a period of battle against cancer to giving all Americans hope, inspiration, and pride in the bio-successful run across America. Thank you very much, Mr. President. Thank you very much. From one great runner to another. You had a pretty good race last November. Yes. Is Mrs. Reagan on California? She left us. She is. You're my best. Well, I sure will. I'll never forget that. We loved California. Oh, well. We do, too. And it was nice to hear you were over the lab station in the park. Yeah, in the park. And my friends threw me in the water after that. Yeah, thank you, yes. It's the only thing they could do for me. Just thank you for looking at the weather, ma'am. I was wishing that it would rain last week, so they'd be sure not be raining this week. But we ought to be about toward the end of the season in California now. Yeah. Yeah. I'll just say the last one. I just came from a slow clean up. A lot of the time. Yeah, the weather sounds tough on them. Going back out there now. It's a great thing. Okay. We're all grateful to you. Thank you again. Thank you. You're welcome. Good to see you soon. Thank you. Thank you, Mr. President. We were here last year. Back this year, but we wanted you here, too, though. Thanks for that. Well, good to see you. Well. Yes, Mr. President. Good to see you. Mr. President. Mr. President. Mr. President. Mr. President. Mr. President. Mr. President. So, the meeting has ago, and Wednesday's statue was here, she mentioned in her toast that this year was the bicentenary, not just the Anglo American relations, but also the establishment of a venerable institution, which is my newspaper, The London Times. And in honor of that event, I'd just like to make a small presentation. This is our office over 100 years ago. I'm afraid it doesn't look like that any more, and high technology. And in those days, people sat by cars and broke off each evening for dinner. But times have progressed. Well, thank you very much. I'm very pleased to have you. Thank you very much for this opportunity of meeting with you. I think they want us to, for a picture, see that there is info. That's right. Yes. Could I take this opportunity just to ask you, I know you can't say anything about the date or time or agreement of a summit, but if a summit were to take place with Mr. Gorbachev, would you regard this as a turning point in American and Soviet relations? Well, I don't know whether you could say that because there have been summit meetings before. I would look on it as an opportunity to hopefully clear the air and express our desire to have a relationship that would eliminate this great threat that seems to happen over the world, the negotiations that are going on. So, and very frankly, I'd like to speak to him about some things like the recent tragedy with our officer there in Germany. Those things are so senseless. There's no need for them. I don't know that you could see it as a turning point. After all, he has been for four years a member of the Politburo, 14 years a member of the Party Council. So, we know that the government really is a collective, so I can't see that some have speculated that there would be a great change of direction in the desire of that same Politburo. I was going to say, given the nature of the Soviet system, how far can relations improve between those two nations? They can improve if they or if we can show them that it would be to their material advantage as well as someone else's. I think about the Geneva talks that way right now. It's the first time in about 50 years more than 20 arms negotiations and talks with them going between World War II and the present. But it is really the first time that they sit down faced with the possibility that either we join together in reducing harms or they engage us in an arms race which they know they can't win. Thank you, Mr President. Thank you very much indeed. I'm very pleased to be here. Well, same to you. Thank you very much. Hello, Mr President. You're going to have us. Well, I know you got away before we could do this. That's what happened. You were busy last summer campaigning.  All right. If anyone sees the picture and asks you, how did I get the bloodshot eye? I want you to come in there. I'm very self-conscious about it. Tell me I broke a little blood vessel in my eye. We were reading about that in the paper. I'm kind of glad that with that in the paper, I wouldn't want people to think I was out in the town. Well, we just have the vice president in the model. Yes. This is quite a move for us. Yes, now you again. Wonderful. Pleased to see you and thank you for what you're doing. Good. Thank you very much. All right. Thank you. All right. Good luck. I just joined the staff in the last couple of months in detail from the State Department. Thank you, sir. Thank you, sir. Good luck. I understand. I waited for the president. Well, did our Air Force treat you all right? Perfectly well. Earlier today, we heard about this. Someone said that you guessed God was looking out for all of us. Yes. Well, please sit down. Yes, sir. I want to present this to you. This is the FDN pin. Many or many wear that. As many pins as we get, we give to them and they wear it. Well, thank you very much. I want you to have it. But have you told them the proposal yet to... We've just been going over it. We hope it can make some impression on our congressman up there. We're having some problems with him, as you know. And I don't understand it. Another of the records in the background of all three of you. How they can fail to see the Sandinista government for what it really is, I don't understand. Your proposal certainly puts the Sandinistas on the corner. We'll see. What? It puts the Sandinistas on the corner. In the spot. We hope so. We'll do our best. Well, I feel I'm interrupting the meeting here because I know I have to go on. But just again, I bless you. Thank you. Thank you, Mr. President. I know what you're doing. I would keep on it. And I know we will continue to count on your support. Yes, you can. Yes. Pete, have you got a good picture? All right. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. All right. I'm going to meet Don Regan. I'll pass the rovello.

Hello people of the internet, my name is Johnny and welcome to an interesting video because I don't think we've covered a hoax before on the channel so this one's gonna be interesting Getting straight to the point, there were a few leaked screenshots of security breach roaming around on the internet for the past day or two And now personally, I did not see them until they were already debunked They got debunked pretty quickly which I'm actually very surprised about But then again, if you guys haven't seen the screenshots, when you see them you're gonna be just like Wow, people really believe that that was real? Cause again, when I first saw them, they were already debunked Um, so I kind of knew first hand but even looking at them, like even if I knew it wasn't debunked It's like, come on, you can easily tell that that is not real And if it was real then damn what was Steel World doing for the past year So there's a total of three screenshots that we're going to take a look at Two of them feature characters and one of them features kind of like a main hub area for the game And I cannot stress this enough, but this is not real These are not actually screenshots from security breach These are from a fan game of security breach that is going to be made in Pierce 4 Dreams Also, again, I mentioned this beforehand, but I was not in the loop when these were released Cause I was busy working on the new place behind me Guys, look, I got a closet now and I got a lamp, do you guys like it? Um, but yeah, I was working on the new office while all this stuff was going on So if I missed some information, I'm sorry, I tried to gather as much information as possible And I think I did a good job, but if I missed anything, tell me in the comments down below Let's all smash the like at the same time Three, two, one, go, go, go, go As far as I am aware, these images originated from 4chan and Reddit Just the most creditable sources Alright, so the first screenshot we are going to be looking at is this one It looks like we are in some sort of kitchen area And it looks like Glamrock Freddy is passing by the window Either he's in another room or he's outside of the building that we are in Now, I don't really want to go into speculation territory You know, like, are we in a pizzeria? Is this a kitchen in a pizzeria? Or are we in a house in the kitchen? I really don't care because again, these are fake, these aren't real So none of that stuff really matters Um, I just wanted to address the images as a whole So, Glamrock Freddy actually doesn't look that bad You can definitely tell that it looks like it's probably Mostly based off of Rockstar Freddy from FNAF 6, Pizzeria Simulator With just a little bit of adjustments made on it to look like the new Glamrock Freddy So again, it looks like we have a flashlight We're in a kitchen, he's passing by the window Unsure of what we have to do in this situation Are we supposed to let him inside? Maybe he's a friendly character Maybe we just let him pass by the window like Phantom Freddy in FNAF 3 I don't know, and again, don't really care The second image we're going to be looking at is this one It features Glamrock Chica, we are again near the kitchen area And it looks like she's chasing after us for some reason If you look closely, I think that is a Vanny mask Over near the far wall off to the left I think that's Vanny's mask and it looks like there's a soda bottle But none of that really matters, the main focus point here is Glamrock Chica herself It looks basically identical to what we apparently are going to see in Security Breach Because we haven't really seen Glamrock Chica We've only seen her in action figure form, leaked by Funko To be fair, all the models do look okay For Dreams, which I am aware of and I know it's not really the most detailed of games But when you really want to make a good game, you can So, overall, this game doesn't look that bad Again, at least the models look pretty good The walls and the floors, meh, kinda, you know, basic I think someone pointed out that these are just the basic assets for Unreal Engine 4 Which I don't know if that's true, because again, this is made in Dreams So I don't know if they have the same assets or if they just have similar ones But either way, it's weird to have a stone wall going into a kitchen Unless this is maybe like a wood-fired pizza place If so, then how's pizza gonna get a job now? Yeah, so I don't know why Glamrock Chica is chasing after us Maybe we ate her pizza, maybe she just saw us out of the corner of her eye As she turned the corner and we were trying to get to the kitchen I don't know And this final one is the one that, as far as I'm aware, again originated from Reddit And this one is of what looks to be the main hub area As you can see, it looks basically identical to what the main hub looks like in Help Wanted And this got me thinking about how I want security breach to play out You know, do I want it to be a five-night style, you know, going back to the basics Or do I want it to be the Help Wanted style with loads of minigames And lots of characters to interact with We're gonna talk about that later, let's get back to the image So again, you got the TV monitor screen here It says Protect for some reason So I guess whatever we do in these minigames We have to either be protected by someone or protect someone You have the arrows to go to different minigames And it looks like there's no indication of how many minigames there are But this certain Protect category has Roxanne Arcade Pizza Plex Hub, Laser Tag, and Fazbear's Pizza I will say this screenshot looks amazing Again, none of these screenshots are actually real They are all fake But this one looks really, really good And if it honestly, right, this does look official Especially the Helpy up in the top left Oh, he looks so good But yeah, this thing looks so real Like the background of it with the logo And the classic 80s, 90s squares up top Those look really good The images for the minigames all look spectacular Overall, again, this one looks amazing And going back to what I was talking about earlier Do I want Security Breach to be in the Help Wanted format? I don't know Because, again, it's not something that we've had to think about, really Because we know nothing about the gameplay So that leaves everything and anything up to interpretation So what would you guys want? Would you want it to return to the Five Nights style Back in FNAF 1, 2, 3, 4 When we survive like seven nights total Including night six and custom night Maybe even a night eight Or do you want it to have lots of minigames With lots of characters to explore like Help Wanted? I don't know It is very interesting Because I think we can all agree That there is most likely going to be some sort of free roam element At least that's what I personally As well as I know a lot of you guys are hoping for in the game We've been waiting like five years for it Ever since we saw the trailer for Sister Location We're like, you know what?  No, I feel like at some point I do want it to return to basics Go back to basics with FNAF 1 and 2 Where we do survive the nights, you know, wait up till 6am I don't know I'm just throwing ideas out there Because again, we have not seen any gameplay On Security Breach So what the gameplay is going to be We have zero idea And I talk about this on every Security Breach video About how, you know, the game is so hyped up And it is so much to live up for And whether or not it is going to live up to everyone's expectations Is unknown, you know Like Cyril has so much pressure on them And the fact that they have not said anything About Security Breach is good but also bad I said this in one of the actual leaked videos Where we go over the Funko leaks And the Trends Calendar leaks But I'm really glad that SteelWolf are not saying anything I'm really glad that Scott is saying stuff and not SteelWolf Because that means that they were focusing on the game They were walking really hard on it And I'm glad that Scott is doing all of the talking Because, you know, he is not directly responsible For making the game Again, if you guys don't know, Security Breach is not being made by Scott It's being made by the people that made Health Wanted SteelWolf Studios So I'm glad that SteelWolf are focusing on making the game And that's it Of course they're, you know, making other games And doing their own thing But I'm glad that they are not publicly going out And saying stuff I'm glad that their main focus is on making this game As for release dates I talk about this in every single video again But I'm still banking on at least a teaser For April 8th Maybe a trailer That's like my main hope is a trailer for the 8th But I think a teaser would work fine It's actually interesting Oh look, I'm saying interesting again Because I've seen quite a few people talk about how they like Not knowing anything about the game They like having few teasers They like not knowing anything about the gameplay Or the characters Because when the game releases Or when the trailer drops It will be a huge surprise As opposed to the other games We'll say like FNAF 2, FNAF 4 Where we saw all the characters in the trailer We saw all the characters in the teasers So I don't know where I'm Where I would put myself I don't know if I want to know more about the gameplay About the characters Or if I just want to wait for the game And wait for the trailer to drop I don't know Again, that's another job For you guys to discuss in the comments The merchandise is actually releasing pretty, pretty soon As for me, at least As you guys know I ordered all the action figures And I ordered like five mystery minis So those ship out in like two weeks They were released on the 15th of August So they'll be here a couple days after that So you can expect a review on them When they arrive at me house I really hope they change up the action figures In the mystery minis Again, the mystery minis I've said this in past videos But I don't think they look that bad The action figures definitely do need to redesign Because again, as you guys know They use a lot of reused ports And they just don't really look all that good But I don't know I mean, I personally have never got Any FNAF action figures So I don't know how to compare them But I'd still think that they could do better Anyways, I've been talking for a bit Not really about the images About the leaked screenshots Of security breach Once again, they're fake They're hoaxes They're not actually from the game Don't worry about it When I first saw these screenshots Again, I knew that they were hoaxes But I only knew like a minute or two After I saw them So when I first saw them I was genuinely concerned Because again, we didn't know If they were real or not So I got so, so legitimately Afraid that that is what The actual game was going to look like I got so scared But luckily, they're not real It's fine, we're all Gucci Oh yeah, that is that Thank you everyone so much For watching this video Again, this is really exciting Going over hoaxes Because it's something that we haven't done before On the channel There's been a lot of FNAF hoaxes Throughout the past six years Right, six? Yep, we're coming up on the sixth anniversary Pretty, pretty soon So yeah, I'm really happy that we can finally Cover one for the channel So yeah, that's it Thanks for watching And I'll see you all on the flip side Goodbye


The sheriff who spearheaded the investigation, which led to my arrest and subsequent conviction, is now a convicted felon. He was convicted last year. He has four life sentences. Mm, four. The charges include rape, molestation, dating back to the 70s. Yeah, we on Boss Talk 101. And that's when the devil in the details showed his face. Of course. I think then it was like a matter of, we have a famous person who has been broadcast all over world news that they've shot someone.  So they're covering her there behind.  So now what we got to do is we have to basically do what is necessary to stick these charges to him, no matter what, because this is bigger than him. This is about our department looking like it knows what it's doing. This is about the public having confidence in our department. Yeah, was it a DA or something that was definitely working on this case? It had to be one DA that was... Yeah, the DA name is Walter Reed at the time. He is now a convicted felon. He just got out of prison like last year. He was released early because of COVID. What was he convicted for? Wiotap fraud, a couple other things. He was shaking different entities down in the area they were paying him. How does that weigh on the cases that he, you know? Well, I think it should weigh heavily, but this is a real, it's a real heavyweight that you would have to be going up against. The sheriff who spearheaded the investigation, which led to my arrest and subsequent conviction, is now a convicted felon. He was convicted last year. He has four life sentences. The charges include rape, molestation, dating back to the 70s, incest, yeah, and the like. Ain't that something? Wow. They should pull up back every single case that all of these people tried. They won't. They won't do it because they know. It would. Open the doors. And it would make their department look. The justice system, not just. But it already making them look a certain way for these people to even get convicted for anything. Well, see, it looks that way momentarily. And they know that the average person attention span is so short, oh, he got messed over, then it's gone. It's not the news no more. It's not the news no more is dead. So the thing is, I don't really blame those individuals as much as I blame us, the public, who entrust these individuals and who have a chance to vote. And we vote for these individuals because they may align for different reasons, multiple reasons. They might be our family. They might be our neighbor. But when we're giving them or we're voting someone in a job with the public trust, that is as important as the district attorney's office, we need to be certain that this person is just. But at the same time, if the information of them not being just isn't out there and they put on that face to make it seem like we can trust them and we don't know that we cannot, how can we vote otherwise if we don't know? Right, and that's a good point. But I would say, and I try to be as politically as correct as I can possibly be, but I'm gonna just be raw. Go ahead. They be knowing these people. Yeah. Bottom line, these people be political allies. It's a good old boy and sister. Yeah, these people be aligned with them in their political views and they don't care about if their views are, I would say, hurtful to people outside of our clique. It doesn't matter. Yeah, he does that. I don't care, I don't like them anyway. Yeah, we on Boss Talk 101.


Good day, St. Lucia. I wish everyone a happy No Tobacco Day. As the world celebrates No Tobacco Day every year, I am sure those who have been able to quit the bad addictive habit of smoking have realized the marked improvement in the health and life in general. By giving up smoking, not only do you preserve your quality of health, but you also protect those around you from being exposed to secondhand smoke, which in some instances can be more detrimental to health and life. Also, you improve on your economic situation by saving the finances you spend on smoking. For those who are still addicted and social smokers, mostly our young people, I say to you today you need to remember that you are not only exposing yourself to a very dangerous killer, but you are exposing others to a potentially harsh death sentence. Non-communicable diseases such as cancers caused by smoking is among the top 10 killers in the world. These preventable diseases are also a heavy burden on our health care system, as well as on family who in most cases are not able to afford to pay for treatment and care. So as I wish you happy No Tobacco Day, I am pleased that many people who have kicked the bad habit of smoking can celebrate knowing that they have the fortitude to do so. And for those who have not been able to stop smoking, I urge you to look to the theme this year, which is protecting youth from industry manipulation and preventing them from tobacco and nicotine use. To educate yourselves and reach out to the Substance Abuse Secretariat of the Ministry of Health, where you can get the necessary assistance, have a smoke-free No Tobacco Day.
