Wenhou, Zai, Zhanghua, Gongxiang, Dang, Di, Bangzhu, Zha, Frankie's free-range meat, Zhang, Qiangwei, Di, Yi, Di, Yi, Zhang, Wu, Di, Yi. I hope someone speaks Chinese to explain to me how ridiculous I sound. But for most of you, I basically said, greetings with the support of the Chinese Communist Party. Frankie's free-range meat will be number one. Number one. China, number one. That's roughly what I said. And I think the CIA agent watching my video will simply have a laugh because there's no way I could have established any sort of relationship with the Chinese government based on my Mandarin linguistics. Linguistics. I couldn't go for some linguine in a nice Chinese restaurant. We haven't done any restaurant blogs in a while. But yeah, my Chinese friends are, I think it's Chinese New Year over there now. So I don't know, let me read my vlog to-do list because my brain is fried. So first things first, we have a lot of fake Google reviews and people intentionally trying to harass my business. And a lot of those reviews were from people who maliciously placed an order with the intention of filing a chargeback. Most of them don't even email me, they just file a chargeback. So if you guys want like a $10 credit on an order, just leave a Google review and then send me an email of like proof that you left a review and then I'll take $10 off your next order. I'll get more into that in another video but I don't want to complain too much. We got a lot of things back in stock. I'll go around and show you guys that. But the ice cream should be the correct recipe. And I already said it once, my brain is so fried, I told myself to try the ice cream before I came into work today so I can tell you guys. But we're just going to do an ice cream taste test at the beginning of this vlog. I'm going to go home after I film this and taste the ice cream real quick for you guys.  I'm down here by myself losing my mind in the freezer three, four hours a day. And my guys are packing up the orders as quickly as possible. We try to send everything out by Tuesday, Wednesday. But a lot of people will like place an order on Thursday or Friday of last week and then be emailing me, hey, Frank, where's my order? Guys, I'm not Amazon. We have one fulfillment center on the East Coast. I'm trying my best. When you run a business legitimately and fairly, it's very difficult when you're starting. And I can't get you guys orders the next day. If you want to go on Amazon and pay twice as much for half the quality of product, they'll ship it to you in a day. But hopefully with the support of you guys for another year or two, we can time things up even more. We'll see. We will see. Should that be the new intro to every vlog? When how? Maybe. Maybe. I'll think about it. If you guys can give me some feedback. What did we used to say in the beginning of the in the beginning of the day of eating vlogs with that chick Victoria Ciro? She was like Russian. Oh man, what? It was so funny. It was like, hello. Greetings with the warm Russian. Hold on. Let me see if I could just find it. This is kind of it. This is kind of it. Good morning, my lovely friends. Hope you are well tonight. I'm very excited because... Good morning. I hope you are well. My name is Frank. Oh, I got it now. I remember now. Hello. Good morning. Hope you are well. My name is Frank. Welcome back to my channel. Something like that. Something like that. I got it. This is a good one. Good morning. Oh, God help me. All right, let's get the vlog started before I lose my mind completely. Yeah, my schedule is completely cooked. That's the new TikTok slang, lately cooked. So I didn't get down here until like, I think 2 p.m. So it's about 5 o'clock now on Sunday. It only took me a few hours to get the orders ready in the freezer, but I'm behind on a lot of other stuff I could possibly do. I fried my lower back yesterday, moving the heavy crates in the freezer, because like, I was stacking them. I shouldn't have like a 40 pound crates, not that heavy, but 80 pounds of fryer back. So I hurt my back a little bit yesterday. So like I went home, I laid down from like 9 to 4 a.m. But I didn't finish all the work on the computer and do the YouTube stuff. So I had to get up at 4 a.m. and work for like 5 hours. And then I went back to bed at 9 and I got up at like 1. So my schedule is completely cooked. But we're down here. Hopefully we can shimmy things together the rest of the week. So decent amount of stuff going on. Over here on Frankie's Naturals, we're going to have two new products this week. The label should be coming tomorrow. This is a bone marrow moisturizing cream. Logo is very cute. I'm excited to show you guys that next week. And over here, our deodorant is back in stock. This is the same deodorant formula we've always had with the shea butter, lemongrass and all that stuff. It's just we have a new logo and a new label. That's kind of funny and cute. I'm looking forward to showing you guys. So over there on that table and behind those boxes over there are a few big boxes. Those are all the ingredients for my detox smoothie. I forgot to order another box of one ingredient. So hopefully that comes by like Tuesday or Wednesday. And we should have the detox smoothie ready to launch next week. And also what should be coming is the new vitamins and minerals and stuff. So hopefully big organ supplements launch. Big organ supplements launch next week. My face is a little frozen from the freezer. I'm kind of slurring a little bit. But that's not going to be this week. Hopefully next week. But I'm definitely looking forward to that. Some new products. The marrow cream and the deodorant that I just showed you guys we're also going to have a bone marrow oil. So this is just pure bone marrow melted down. We have a lot of this. I'm not sure how much I'm going to charge. I've got to figure out how much it costs me to make this. I think it's going to be $25 or $30 a jar because there is a lot of waste. And you're taking that small amount of marrow out of the bone and then from that marrow like a little less than half of it is like it doesn't melt down. So it's not cheap to make this. But this will be available on the foods and the meat website whereas the marrow cream and the deodorant as you guys know are on frankiesnaturals.com. So these are three new products that maybe by Tuesday or Wednesday you guys will be able to get on the website. Yeah, I mean we got a few restocks in the freezer. The main thing that's back is the collagen sausage. We did get some of the porkshare items but we're still waiting on a few things next week. So I'll talk about that when we get in the freezer. I mean the main thing on my notes was to explain to you guys like look I could barely afford this old grocery store and I had to get a bank loan to get the freezer up and running. Whenever I offer you guys products or sell you guys stuff the margins are minimal.  And that's very evident when you go on like mybusinessorgansupplements.com I'm selling these supplements at half the price of basically anyone else and that's because I'm doing everything myself I have very little overhead and I have some integrity. I'm not going to look and see oh, if this costs me $10 and someone's selling it for $45 I'm not going to sell it for $42 I'm going to sell it for you know, 20 or 25 whatever I need to make a reasonable margin. On the rest of the Frankie Syringe food stuff it looks like you guys are going through the bars pretty quickly. We just finished cleaning up in here after a fairly busy week. My contractor he got all the steel on the wall so maybe we can get the rest of that kitchen set up soon so we can make like the beef barley soup and stuff. In here this is just the turkey breast and roast beef that we're going to slice fresh tomorrow morning to ship out to you guys very special, no one else is doing that. This is all the fresh dairy that came in over the weekend that we're going to send out to you guys first thing Monday and Tuesday last week I told you guys we've restocked the Jardiniera that's just a lot of extra butter I think over here somewhere is the sauerkraut sauerkraut delicious, maybe we should do a hot dog recipe water kefir, we haven't made any water kefir guys so when we run out of this it might be a little while before we get some more plenty of eggs we've got to send out for you guys organic raw cookie dough guys, make sure to buy this because if this like another week or two if this goes bad we're definitely not going to keep making it I think this is the last of the fresh beef share that's in the fridge I mean it's been in the fridge for a week and a half now so if we don't sell it this week probably going to be gone running low on most of the cheeses hopefully we can get a cheese order in next week problem is I thought we didn't have that much to do this week so I placed an organic produce order well this is some leftover celery but I bought like I don't know maybe seven or eight cases of cucumbers you know I'm looking at that normally we just put the cucumbers in the in the jar this time I was going to slice the cucumbers first before pickling them to see if that made a difference I don't know how long it would take me to cut all these cucumbers up myself I might try to do it tomorrow because if these sit in the fridge for another few days I don't know how long they're going to last yeah I'm not a produce expert so if I order those cucumbers and they came on Thursday they've been in the fridge for like two or three days now I don't know how long until like they start going back and getting mushy I'm sure they might, I'm sure they'll be fine for a few more days but I don't know when my guys are going to get to them because we had so much other stuff to do honestly I mean because the past few times we just put them whole in the jar but to my understanding most times when you make pickles you're supposed to cut them first I don't know I'll see how I feel tomorrow because I'd have to do that on top of being in the freezer for three hours I want to get that detox smoothie stuff ready but I might be and of course I have to label all those deodorant and cream and stuff has to be labeled so I don't know when we're going to have to do it alright guys so let's see what's new in the freezer this week over here we restock some of the pork tenderloin these come in two tenderloin packs and you guys can buy them by weight most of the Iberico pork is in stock we just got the baby back ribs back we have the breakfast sausage and the plain sausage in addition to the beef these are the beef hot dogs I don't know why my guys put this by the pork but whatever fresh ducks that we've had for a few weeks now corn and soy free duck very special no one else is selling this quality online for this price we got a chicken restock that will be active on the website by the time you guys see this video this is the rest of the chicken we have and there's a fresh batch over there I'll show you most of the soups and broths are in stock you know we have our very concentrated chicken broth we have the beef stock concentrate very dark colored we have the regular collagen broth and down there we have the beef in the bone broth this is our best burger blend we grinds it up fresh every week this is the bishi swass soup that I like a lot and we're just missing the chicken soup that we'll make probably this week these are all the orders packed up ready to go tomorrow we showed you guys last week the skirt steak is restocked we're running low on a few things but we'll try to get most of them back again this week so here's all the new stuff for this week we have the plain collagen sausage are back in stock this is made with just beef, beef broth and salt so technically only really only two ingredients beef and salt but you know yeah beef muscle meat, beef fat beef collagen broth all mixed together to make this we got the bone and steaks back so we have nice one pound bone and rib eye and also we have the porterhouse steaks we're running low on some pork bacon so we have some pork bacon in stock we got the organ grind freshly ground up for you guys a lot of beef tongue a lot of beef tongue so we have a very good price on the beef tongue on the website running low on the pet food but we should get more this week this is the chocolate, strawberry and vanilla ice cream look how dark yellow that is one pound beef hearts in stock we got a variety of beef liver in different weights in stock and we restock the pipe cut bones the canoe cut marrow bones as well as the bone marrow butter this is the one pound venison shoulder haven't had this for a while but now we do this is just all this is just all collagen sausage I think so we have a lot of that this is the chicken that just came in this week I mean most of it we had already this is just chicken drumsticks whole chicken chicken breasts but since the Amish farmer has some chicken still I might reduce the price and try to move it a little quicker that's why I'm mentioning it because we might reduce the price slightly this is part of the pork share so here we have some amazing looking pork chops corn and soy free milk fed pork these are the pork ribs a lot of pork chops over there this is the ground pork nice deep rosy pink color and here we have more of the pork share so these are some pork picnic roasts those are sirloin butt roasts here we have the pork head cheese I haven't tried this I'm excited to try this myself I don't know how to make head cheese so that's pork head cheese that's pork liverwurst no liver no organs in it actually only just like pork meat and then we have some pork smoked plain sausage really excited about this pork share here are just some frozen egg whites these are the egg whites from the Amish farmer making the ice cream if you guys want these they're not $10 I think they're like $7.50 on the website free egg whites so that's 7 or 8 items I think that are in the pork share that I showed you we're missing the pork ham the pork bacon and the pulled pork which is made from the pork butt so when that stuff comes this weekend the pork share is going to be available because the ham the bacon and all that stuff it required a 2 week cure so we have most of the pork ready to go and then when the rest of it comes in this weekend we're going to have everything set up and I'm going to see how much I paid for it I'm going to try to get it to you guys at whatever price I can as low as possible although honestly this quality of pork and this level of like artisanal I don't think anyone's ever sold anything as special as this online from a meat perspective from the quality of the pork to the care that has gone into it to the variety of the products also very special it's only made with high quality organic ingredients everything just plain with only salt we put a little bit of sugar in the ham and the bacon here but it's really nothing so that share is going to be pretty big I think it's going to be 15 to 20 pounds of pork so you guys can expect it to be over $200 probably the previous pork share I think it was much cheaper because there was only a few different things in there but this one's going to have a lot more stuff you're going to get a lot more pork and I'm going to weigh them each out individually and that's how we're going to do it so I'm going to put one of each item in the pork share and I'm going to weigh it and I'm going to have them listed on the website with certain options and we'll sell like that and as we run out of stuff then maybe we'll run out of we'll run out of those big roasts first so as soon as we're out of the big roast that'll cut like a big chunk off the price of the pork share then maybe we run out of maybe we have a good amount of head cheese and liverwurst but let's say we run out of liverwurst then we take the liverwurst off the price gets reduced so if you guys don't want to spend that much money up front on a share then you'll be able to buy it when it's reduced so that's what we're excited for next week the fresh beef might also be back I mean we're sold out now but so the pork share and the fresh beef share might be back this weekend both of them might be back we might put the chicken back in the share but that really throws off the inventory so I'm just going to try to reduce the price of the chicken for you guys so you can just buy what you want instead of having to buy the chicken share to get a big discount like we have such a limited amount I might just do it anyway so we got a few brand new things this week now cream face moisturizer we're going to have the marrow oil as a cooking fat and I think that would be delicious to put on bread or toast or something especially in a fancy restaurant and hopefully the supplements and everything comes in this week and we can launch our new vitamin and mineral supplements next week as well as the cox smoothie which I'm very excited for pretty creative, unique thing the labels for that aren't going to come until next week so we might have some vitamin and mineral stuff on the website but the smoothie isn't going to be available until after the next vlog yeah I think that's everything I mentioned a few times like I wanted to launch this special product in the summer but I spoke to a patent lawyer and there's basically nothing preventing these corporate coxsuckers from just copying my idea and shadow banning me and sentering me and making millions and millions of dollars well tens, hundreds of millions of dollars off of my ideas like they have in the past it's happened, it's happened in the past several times with the animal based influencers and people like liver king they've made tens, if not hundreds of millions of dollars off of my ideas and marketing and creativity and without even mentioning my name so I think I'm going to have to wait until I'm in a better if I never get in a better financial position where I can afford to pay for these big marketing campaigns with these new product launches it's just a very bad idea it's a very bad idea to launch a very unique and creative product on a small platform that can be copied because maybe, maybe maybe I'll make a few thousand dollars off of it maybe, which will just help me supplement and grow my business a little bit but then someone copies it and then I'm shit out of luck so I don't know if we're going to launch that even though you guys probably don't care, it's not that important because I haven't told you guys what it is and I barely mentioned it but yeah, so hopefully with your guys continued support I mean I'm doing as much as I can guys I don't really have anything else in my life besides this business all I do is work every day here, I go home, I just work on my computer that's all I do, every day, seven days a week that's all I do, so that's kind of how I show my appreciation to you guys supporting my business and everything and hopefully it'll be a while if we can stick it out another few years holy shit dude, I'm telling guys, listen you guys have to support me because eventually when I actually lose my mind I'll be like filming videos with like they'll literally be like half naked Chinese girls running around on my farm it'll be wild, bro and boys for you ladies, for you ladies don't worry I will not forget about you ladies we'll get what you want too, don't worry about it alright guys, we're going to go home and test the ice cream I'll see you guys in a little bit little bonus ice cream taste test guys, when I smell these when I open them oh my god it's phenomenal the smell of each of these individually it's insane, so we'll start with the vanilla makes the most sense immediately the texture off the bat it's much creamier and it's not like icy and stuck that vanilla flavor bro, this New Zealand vanilla I bought so so expensive, this is way way better way better this is what I wanted to sell when I said we need raw milk ice cream this is good, I'm comfortable with this you guys are going to like this a lot I wonder if we can still get the cream content a little higher but this is excellent, this is some of if not the best tasting ice cream I've ever had very good, very very tasty I gotta stop, I gotta stop because this is phenomenal vanilla is always my favorite but we'll try strawberry next I mean if you like strawberry super prominent high quality strawberry flavor and it's not too sweet it's not too sweet honestly I think this could have more sugar but with the quality of the ingredients and everything the flavor profile of the vanilla and all the flavors in this I don't think it should be sweet because it's so tasty and delicious on its own you don't need it to be sweet that strawberry you guys that eat a lot of strawberry ice cream try this and let me know how this ranks I feel like this is another level of the highest quality strawberry flavor you could ever have in an ice cream the moment of truth for the chocolate I'm very happy with this I'm excited because compared to the first ice cream we have what you guys like I don't think it was acceptable about this this is phenomenal, this is very good this chocolate the last one was bitter we switched up the cacao powder this is like for ten dollars you guys are gonna be writing me love letters in the mail insane insane chocolate very delicious good, not too sweet I think if I put more sugar in this maybe some people would like it but it's so delicious on its own I think we found a good balance of sugar without it tasting actually sweet I'm gonna go back to the strawberry real quick maybe we put a lot less sugar in the strawberry because we thought the strawberry jam was sweet but the strawberry is good the strawberry is so good it's a nice balanced flavor profile way better than before the egg yolks instead of the egg whites really improve the texture excellent, excellent, excellent very delicious ice cream guys I hope you enjoy them on FrankieSherrysMeet.com I mean I don't think it's gonna get much better than this to be honest maybe we'll try maybe we can try a batch with more cream but the texture is phenomenal it's good, it's just sweet enough the quality of the flavorings and ingredients really shines through so you guys can get the vanilla, strawberry and chocolate ice cream on FrankieSherrysMeet.com hopefully this is something that we can offer to you guys consistently and I think for $10 it's it's an amazing deal for the quality of what you're getting you guys can go to FrankieSherrysMeet.com

how you like this if you try it's a lot better


Come on, Bumblebee! Well, at this altitude, you can really feel the difference. Wow, I'm so out of breath. We're both pretty affected by the altitude, I reckon. Hi, I'm Lavi. And I'm Oli. And this is our hero, Bumblebee. Together, we are attempting a Guinness World Record to become the youngest pair to circumnavigate the globe by motorcycle. Join us for season three here in South America. Good morning, world. Welcome back to the channel. It's day number 299 on our circumnavigation around the globe by motorcycle. Good morning, Bumblebee. The sun is just rising here in the Atacama Desert in Chile. And we camped last night at the end of this little dirt track next to this river. Have a look around. Behind us, we can see the Atacama Salt Flats. It's absolutely spectacular view for the morning. But we have an exciting day ahead. So let me show you guys where we're heading today. So today, we are going to be heading further down into the Reserve Nacional Los Flamencos to check out some lakes around here, some lakes around here, some beautiful mountains before heading back up to this area just south of San Pedro de Atacama. Yesterday is Salt Lakes Day. Yes. And if we are really lucky that we can see flamencos and maybe we might even swim in the Salt Lake. So that would be so cool. It's really funny because we have donkeys here as our neighbors. We could hear them in the night like, ah, ah, ah. In German, we say, er, er. You do an amazing donkey impression. Thank you. So but anyway, we still have to pick up everything and it's already 8 o'clock, so better hit the road. Let's go. Have a look down here. There's a beautiful river oasis right next to where we camped last night. Look at that. So green here. And then look right next to us. It's just sand. It's crazy. And then you can feel the altitude up here. I think we're something like 3,000 meters above sea level up on the Alta Plano. And we are all packed up and ready to go.  The right thing to wake up in the morning, hey? Exactly. Nothing like a beautiful challenge in the morning. Bye bye, beautiful camp. I had such a peaceful night. I slept really well. Yeah, apart from the odd sound of donkeys in the night, it was totally silent. No one around. Yeah, it was a beautiful spot. That was a little bit of sand sliding. So we're making our way first over to a town called Soquer and there we have to check in because we actually reserved and bought our tickets online. Yeah, the tickets were per person 15 pounds. But they give you entry to multiple areas and sites of this national reserve because pretty much everything you can see here is part of the Los Flamencos National Reserve. And so today we're starting off by going to the lagoon sector. And there we should be able to see some Flamencos. Yes. OK, hold on a minute. OK. So I have to be really careful here because it's a bit of rubbish around. Maybe some nails, maybe some glass. We don't want to flat our brand new Analyst Cabra X tires, that's for sure. There's not many places to find a replacement out here. Beautiful, look at this. Awesome. I love it. Hold on, bit of sand. Slow down for the sand. There you go, back on the main road. Awesome.  You can really see the volcanoes now on the background here and they are just massive. And then on the right, the big salt flats of the Atacama. It's just a stunning area. Absolutely stunning. Guys, look. We just reached the Tropic of Capricorn. Woo hoo hoo. Wow. Cool. Ruta del Desierto Tropico del Capricorno. Nice. Nice. That's so cool because this reminds me when we reached the Tropic of Cancer in the Sahara. We reached the Tropic of Cancer. Nice. And now we've reached the Tropic of Capricorn. Is that a milestone or what? And thanks to Nikos, we have a sticker to put on it. Woo hoo hoo hoo hoo. La Vianolle, there forever on the Tropic of Capricorn. Awesome. Oh, that's awesome. Beautiful, checking complete. And now we are on our way to the first lagoons. So the first place we're going is called Salad de Aguascalientes. So that's like, I think, the salty hot water. I think. So the whole of the Los Flamencos National Reserve covers an area of 740 square kilometers. And the reserve actually goes up to an elevation of 4,800 meters, which is absolutely crazy. So we have about an hour right now to reach our first stop. And as you can see around us, it looks already epic. So it's going to be a quite nice ride. Our first Chilean guanacos. Hello, guys. Beautiful. Oh, the whole family. Yeah. Well, they might be Vaikunas. I don't really know the difference between a Vaikuna and a guanaco. So we'll call them Vaikuanacos. And it is freezing up here. Hey, it's like 13 degrees. Yeah, I'm really cold too. Yeah, and you can really feel the difference in the power of Bumblebee, like a bit sluggish. So we are really, really high up now. I don't know how high up, but we are really high. Well, here we go. We're coming down into the Agua Caliente salt flats. Look at that view, hey? Absolutely amazing. It really feels like we are in a plane just landing on another planet, hey?  I think that's a guanaco on the salt flats. Oh, yeah. Oh, that's funny. He's like, where's the grass? The Agua is caliente, aquí. No, name. Oh, just the name. Agua caliente es donde nace el agua, donde sale. Dimeo, here, the cold, the water, fría. Ah, OK. ¿Por qué Agua Caliente? The volcano. Ah, the volcanoes. The volcanoes, volcano Miniquez. Miniquez? Wow, crazy. The staff at the center here just told us that we are sitting at 4,100 meters above sea level here. Whoa. Woo. Yeah, crazy, no wonder we felt a little bit out of breath. Man, 4,100 meters. Yeah, it really takes your breath away. It takes my breath away. Yeah, but this is actually the highest we have ever been in our entire lives, not in a plane, of course. And she was also telling us that the volcano Miniquez, which is this one right behind us, is 5,900 meters tall. Wow, 5,900 meters above sea level. Yeah, well, I said we're really high up. We're really high up here. Whoa, look down there.  So these are not lagoons that we can swim in, unfortunately. Time to dive off into the pool. You have your swimming shorts underneath, eh? Look at this. Awesome, look at this. Got these crazy red rocks just over this, like, green, blue lake with this yellow shore.  Oh my God, really. I never had this experience. I feel like a little bit dizzy, a little bit, like, that I can't walk very fast. I think it's like the feeling when you have just completed a marathon or something like this, you know? So we're on our way back to Bumblebee, and I'm really hot now. Oh, man. It's just a little bit of elevation here. We're climbing a little bit up and we're getting hot instantly. Hot and exhausted. I think this trail is only like a one-kilometer trail, but, man, it's taken it out of us, especially with our motorbike trousers boots on, man. Yes, I can see Bumblebee. Our walking for the day is over. We're not that fit anymore. No, no. That's for sure. If you have a bike to ride to everywhere, it's like, yeah, that's the dream. It makes life a bit too easy, perhaps, but anyway. All right, I think it's time for lunch then, eh? Yes, Bumblebee! Just where we left at. Got some egg and onion sandwiches and some more goat's cheese, of course. At least I'm gonna get through that. And some boiled potatoes with mayonnaise. Actually, apparently you're not supposed to eat in this park, but we asked over here and they said that it was okay for us to eat next to the bike, so we'll just quickly have a sandwich and get on our way. Amazing view of Volcano Menizquez here. Look at this. We're like right up at the front of it and that is like nearly 6,000 meters high. We're now heading to our second destination of the day, Laguna Menizquez and Laguna Menizquez. Is that correct? Something with M. And for that, we have to head now on this dirt track up into the mountains in front. It looks like a really epic road to get up there. Wow, this is epic here. Yeah, very cool landscape. Yeah, we've never ridden through anything like this. Look at these rocks. These piles of rocks everywhere. Yeah. Like winding sandy track. Well, we're coming up now, getting some views, but this road is a little tricky, I must admit. It's not the easiest. No, and with the high altitude as well, man, it's making me a little bit exhausted. Power. Come on, pump the beer. Well, at this altitude, you can really feel the difference. Ah, here we go. Sector Miscanti Menizquez, Reserva Nacional Los Flamencos. Nice. Hola, buenas. Hola. Hola. ¿Cómo estás? Bien, bien. Bien. Bien. No, Inglaterra. Inglaterra. ¿Su nombre? Hector. Hector. Mucho gusto, Hector. Ya. Mucho gusto. Bienvenido a tu lugar. Gracias. Well, coming up over Laguna Miscante. Whoa. It's a massive lagoon. Wow. Yeah. Beautiful. So actually I read into about the formation of these lagoons. Okay. And apparently originally, it was like a collection of rivers that were heading from the big volcanoes and mountains here, down, basically down to where we came from. But then apparently, there was a massive volcanic eruption and that created a big dam, basically. But effectively this volcanic eruption pushed up this side, creating a huge dam and that allowed these lakes to form. Cool. Unbelievable. Very cool. Whoa, here we go. Here's the second lagoon, Laguna Miguez. Beautiful. Oh yeah, look at that. Absolutely beautiful. You can see down there the fake guanacos. Oh yeah. Baikunas down there. And you can see a few birds along here. According to the sign, those are Tagua Cornudas. But no flamingos here, hey? No. We spent two days in the Los Flamingos National Reserve and we haven't found any flamingos yet. Really sad. But it's absolutely spectacular landscape here. I mean, wow. Hello, little guys. Oh my God, look at these guys. Whoa. Oh, they're chasing each other. Crazy guys. Bit of a Baikuna argument there. All right, on our way back down again from the awesome lagoon landscape. And we'll now be making our way back to the town Soquerre. Or I think actually one of the people we met told us it was pronounced Soquerre. Yeah, because it's a little bit difficult to visit the places around this area here. Apparently everything is online now and you have to sort of book your slot when you want to go and visit a place. You can't really just rock up and say, oh, I want to see this place now. They really insist of you booking your slot in. Now we will go back to this town and then we do a little bit more research and see what we still will be able to see for today and for tomorrow. Yeah, because we're just planning on spending one more day inside this big reserve area because there are still quite a few more awesome things to see, including the crazy geyser field which we are definitely going to tomorrow. Oh, yeah, yeah, that's a musty, a musty. I'm so excited. But yeah, let's see what we can reserve tickets online for and let's see how much time we have and what we can see. Just stopping for a rest in Socaire. We're both pretty affected by the altitude, I reckon. We've both got a big headache and feeling pretty tired, actually. Yeah, and it's just half day, actually. I'm ready for bed. Yeah, and we didn't like exert a whole huge amount of energy, you know? We just did like a one kilometer walk and then we were just riding around on the bike. So I think we are not acclimatized basically to this altitude, to like 4,000, 4,000 plus meters. And yeah, it's affecting us a little bit. Uh-huh, yeah, I can definitely feel it. Okay, so after a bit more research, we found that our next destination, which was a place called Laguna Sejar, which is a lagoon that you can actually swim in, is actually closed to the public from one PM onwards every day. But luckily, we could book ourselves in for tomorrow at 9 o'clock. Woo-hoo! Yes, swim in the Salt Lake, in the Atacama Desert. Uh-huh. Yeah, so that place being closed, combined with the fact that we both have banging headaches at the moment, means that we are just gonna head for a camp right now and have a chance to rest and recover and hopefully acclimatize a little bit. So we found one place on Ioverlanda, which is not too far away from here and it's pretty close to this lagoon that we're heading to tomorrow morning. So we just gotta ride over there and see if it's all right to camp. All right, this is our turn off towards our wild camp.  Look at this. It's better than Tarmac. It's better than some Tarmac roads we've been on, that's for sure. It's really funny because this spot on Ioverlanda is called Lonely Tree. So basically we're looking out for very lonely tree to camp under and we can give them some company for the night. So I think that is our lonely tree over there, but it doesn't actually look that lonely. There's quite a few trees around it. Yeah, I don't know what they're talking about. Since we have to come off somewhere here to get to it, maybe it's, ah, I think the road's here. Oh, okay. Oh, look, there's a couple of people here. Yeah. Hola, buenas. Well, I guess we'll just find our spot then, shall we? These guys are here. Yeah, let's park just here. Hola, buenas. Oh, that's a bit deep down there. That bike lent over a lot. Luckily we've got our Givi extra wide sand plate. It's just about saves us from into the sand. Good evening, guys. We made it. Happy and alive. Happy and alive with a bit of a headache and feeling a little bit worse for wear. But we made it to this beautiful camping spot. Have a look at this. But we'll be tent and desert. Just endless desert. And the sun is setting behind the trees on this side. It's pretty windy, but the trees are giving us some shelter. There's quite a few little cluster of trees and bushes. And so you've got to try and position yourself in the right place so that you don't get all of the wind. Hope for the best. Hope for the best. And we have a big decision to make tonight as well, because there are basically two ways to get to Bolivia from here. The first is called Salar Olagüe Pass, and that is to the north, but it's on an unpaved road and we really don't know the condition of this road. But it is more direct to head to where we're trying to head to. The other way to get there is crossing over Pasoyama over to Argentina and then crossing from Argentina up to Bolivia. It is a longer way, but the entire way is paved. So people have told us very, very, very lovely things about this pass. It's one of the highest passes of the Andes, and they say that the north of Argentina is absolutely spectacular as well, so there's amazing draws to both. And we really don't know what to do at the moment, so we're going to have to have dinner and have a think about it. So that's it from us today.

and welcome to this open air webinar. Today we're going to talk about policies and mainly the open science policies in Horizon 2020 and it will also be a little preview of what Horizon Europe will bring us. So it's not final yet but we can say something about it. So to start off I like to reuse an image because of course that's good practice in open science to reuse things of last year that we used with open access week in Belgium and just to illustrate that open science is more than just open data and open access although I will talk mainly about open data and open access to publication. Open science has become more than just those two things. There's citizen science, open source and open educational resources and you'll see that all those things will come more and more into focus as we move beyond just open access to publications and open data. So having said that why is the European Commission interested in open science and what's the aim of the open science policy? Well the European Commission has always been on the forefront of open science and implemented open science policy early in the frameworks. So why? Because it improves the quality of the results if people can consult and see the work that has been done previously. It's increased efficiency because it encourage collaboration between different researchers and also it avoids duplication because if you can see data if you can see results you do not have to start from scratch or you can already see like this experiment has already been done in a similar way that I was thinking of doing it. It can speed up innovation because now also industry and citizens can consult science and of course more and more talk about citizen science, evolving the society and greater transparency which I think is important in this time of fake news and that. So there's a lot of benefits about open science and that's why the EC decided to include open science in their policy for their framework programs. So the main open science policies for IEIS in 2020 I could be really short about it. It's that it's open access to scientific publications so peer reviewed publications should be openly and freely available to anyone. This is an obligation and also open access to research data. So if this is possible to provide access to the data underlying the publication. There's an opt out possible and research data management is integrated in this open access to research data requirement. Let's go into it a little bit deeper. So the open access policy states that you have to ensure open access as soon as possible. Later on publication to deposit machine readable electronic copy. This is literally the text from the grant agreement. I always find it a bit confusing because it says a lot in a short text. So let's break it down a little bit. What does it say? Exactly. So the first thing that I want to stress is that researchers always have the choice to choose where to publish. So they can choose any journal. That means that they all also can go for a subscription based journal. They do not have to choose an open access journal. Although this is definitely an option. It is not an obligation. However, wherever they choose to publish, they should always be a copy in the repository. And you can provide access to a repository. This is a literature repository specifically for academic publishings. And the reason why is because it provides a sustainable way of archiving articles. And also, of course, a lot of those repositories have services attached to it, which will make it easier. For example, for the EC to include it automatically in reporting something that's open air is helping it. So always remember to deposit a version in a repository no matter where you publish and add the right information metadata. So the fund, the grant ID number. So that's a publication can actually be picked up by the EC. If you do choose for an open access journal, which I said is not an obligation, you can look for at the direction of open access journal to find a quality open access journal. There's a lot of information you can look on topic, but it also has information on possible costs because some open access journals and not all do ask the author for a fee. The article processes charge. These fees are supported by the EC both for open access journals and hybrid journals. Hybrid journals are subscription based journals. So you pay for a subscription. But they offer the possibility of making one or more articles openly accessible. But you still have to pay for them. It's not something that libraries like a lot because, of course, you pay twice. But in a rise in 2020, those costs are supported. Just remember to always deposit a version in a repository, even if you publish in an open access journal. Where to deposit them? Well, most institutions have their own repositories. A lot of university and research agencies have their own repository. You can also go for a disciplinary repository or for Zenodo, which is multi disciplinary and free repository, which also accepts data and other research outputs, such as presentations or things like if you're looking for, if you don't know where to look, there's also a directory of open access repositories. Sherpa Open Door is one for ePrince.org.eprince. And OpenAir also have a list with OpenAir compliant repositories, which means that those repositories adapted some guidelines that will make it easier for researchers to report because the information is carried over to the EC reporting tool automatically. What to deposit? What's important that is the final peer review manuscript. So you can definitely also deposit earlier version, but for the EC, it's important that it's peer reviewed version. If you can deposit a publisher's version, that's good too, of course. The publishing version has the layout of the publisher. But publishers do not always allow this version to be deposited. So it's best to check the publisher's policy on what you can deposit. There are two things to remember. So the version, which would be the final peer reviewed version, but also if there's a possible embargo, some publishers set an embargo before you can actually deposit something. If you want to have an overview of copyright policies and self reviving permission, you can go to sherpa.com.io to find an overview of all the policies. So this policy applies to all kind of publication, but the emphasis is on peer reviewed journal articles. So for peer reviewed journal articles, depositing is an obligation. The other, such as books or gray literature, it's recommended, but it's not an obligation. When to deposit as soon as possible, the latest on publication, and when to provide open access, well, immediately if you can, if your publishers allow it, or if you publish in an open access journal, of course, you can deposit immediately and make it open access. Or after an embargo, six months is allowed or 12 months for social science and humanities. So if your publisher does not allow your publication to be deposited, you can always try to amend your publisher agreements and EC has a model amendments that you can use for that reason. So in short, researchers can always decide where to publish. There's no obligation to publish in an open access journal. You can also go for a subscription based journal. Just remember to always self archive in a repository and check your publisher's policy on what version you can deposit and if there's an embargo before you can make it openly available. If you go for an open access journal, deposit, but also remember to check possible costs, and you can provide immediately open access to the journal and to the repository. And in case you go for a subscription based journal, that can be a delay due to an embargo, but some publishers also allow you to immediately provide open access. So in short, this is the open access policy. The open data policy is a little bit different, which started as a flexible pilot for open research data became the default in 2017. So all projects are involved now in the open research data pilot. And there are two pillars. So there's on the one side, there's data management planning. And on the other side, there's the open access to research data. This of course, if is highly recommended, but it's not an application. And it's important to think as of those things as two pillars. Because of course, if you cannot make your data openly available for some reason, you can still do data management planning if you reuse or gather any data. So data management planning is almost always possible open access to research data is most of the time possible, but always so there's an opt out possibility. What are the requirements of this pilot? Well, first to develop a data management plan where you explain what data you will gather or reuse, what you will do with the data, and how you will make your data usable for other projects. And the EC uses the fair principles to make data as usable as possible and fair stands for findable, accessible, interoperable, and reusable. So your data management plan basically describes how will you will treat your data to make this possible. After your data management plan and your research has been done, you have to deposit data sets in research data repository, together with the necessary information to make your data understandable and usable. Research data repository is similar to literature repository but for data. And then if possible, you have to provide access to your research data. These requirements are primarily focused on data that is needed to validate results in scientific publication. But you can also choose to include more data sets or your bar data. Now you can specify it in your data management plan. Participation I said before, it started as a limited pilot in 2014. But by 2017, this pilot was extended to all the projects. So part of this participating is now the default option. Costs are eligible for funding for the duration of the project. And there's still the possibility to opt out at any stage. So not only at at the beginning of your project, but also if you later find out that you want to exploit your results, for example, you can still opt out of sharing your data. Reasons can be a set expectation of results, confidentiality or protection of personal data, if no data is generated, or any other reason that you mean any other reason that makes sense, of course. If you opt out, projects are still encouraged to develop data management plan, because as said before, you can still manage your data even if you cannot make it openly available. So there's degrees of data sharing. This open research data pilot is not a black and white story. The mantra of the EC is try to make your data as open as possible, but as close as necessary. Don't take any risk. So you have completely open data that is free to use and to modify and to share by anyone for any purpose. And on the other side, you have completely close data that you're unable to share or is under embargo. But there is a big gray area where you can choose to make some data sets open and close others, or where you can choose to only allow a certain type of users or a certain type of use free data. So there is this gray area of restricted or controlled data. And you can find all the information about the fair data management in Ryzen 2020 in the guidelines on fair data management. It explains the extension of the pilots. It clarifies the concept of fair data, so findable, accessible, interoperable and reusable. It explains what the data management plan is and what it is for and when to update it. It notes what happened at different stages of your project. It explains the costs and which costs are eligible. Then very important, it has a template for a data management plan, which are a set of questions, quite a lot actually. And you're not obligated to use this template, but it's very much recommended because all the teams that are in the template should be addressed. So it's easy to use those questions and it will ask you how you make your data fair. So it has a question on interoperability and access to your data and so on. I'm not going to enter detail about the practicalities of how to make your data fair and things like that. There was a webinar yesterday about data management plan and also openair.eu has a lot of information about data management and different topics on data management that you can consult. But in short, step one, you should write a data management plan. There are online tools that you can use. You have to find a repository that matches your data needs. Again, there are a number of websites you can consult. If you're looking for a data repository, then you should deposit your data together with the necessary information to make your data accessible. So metadata and other tools. And if you're looking for support, the EC guidelines that I just mentioned are really useful. Openair can provide you with a lot of information. And the DCC, the Digital Creation Center in the UK, is also a good source for information for research data management. So this in short would open science policies until now. So I'll have a brief look at the future and what I can already say about it. So the evolution of the EU funding programs follow a logical path, I think. So what started as a pilot for open access to publication became mandatory in Horizon 2020 with a pilot for open research data and data management planning. Then in 2017, that became mandatory as well with some exceptions, of course, for sensitive data. And that's where we are now. So in Horizon Europe, this part will follow its logical course, I think. So open access still mandatory. And then what I think will provide more clarity in the policy is that will be a distinction between data management planning and open data. So it will not be seen as one big thing anymore because data management planning is always, always possible. Open data will become the default option, but still exceptions will be possible. And open science will be embedded throughout the whole work program and grant agreements. So what we do know now, the model grant agreement is at the moment an internal document. I haven't seen it yet. I do not work for the EC, I work for open air. But what we can see is that it continues and strengthens the current policy. So it is a logical evolution of the policy. It's still being negotiated. So I am going to say some things about it, but do not pin me down on it. Some changes might still occur. It's still being negotiated. But those are the things that are on the table now. So in Horizon Europe for open science, open access to verification will be in short. So I copied this from a slide from the EC. I find it very funny that I say, no way around this, and then a smiley face. But so it still will be an obligation to make your publication open access. Open access to research data will still be as open as possible and as closed as necessary. Then data management will be its own topic. Still there will be data management planning. So DMP will still be included. And it still follows the fair principles for data. And a long-term preservation of data will be in short. Open science practices will be promoted and encouraged, so with incentive and obligations. So this is a stick-in-the-carat tactic for open science practices. There might be additional obligation to use EOSC, so the European Open Science Cloud, which is a big infrastructure project of Europe for data. So some work programs might be required to use EOSC for storing or giving access to research data. The details about it are not clear yet. We'll see. Artists must retain enough rights for open access. This is important to make open access possible. Exceptions to open access for research data will be better described. As I said before, in Horizon 2020, there were some reasons listed, but then it also, you could also include your own reason. And I think that will probably be more limited or better described, what are good reasons for the exception to open access to data. So speaking of data, the research data management will be mainstream with a mandatory data management plan. This will be the case for all the project that generates data or collect data or reuse data, and there will be no exception. So there's no opting out of the DMP requirement for a project that actually works with data. I think that makes sense. Open will be the default for data. Exceptions to still apply. It's not an opting out, but it's really an exception. So data management still applies, but you can opt out of the open if your data is sensitive. It will still follow the fair research data principles. So a lot of the things that are already in DMP templates, like identifies for repositories, licenses, and other things, will be also in Horizon Europe. DMP, I can imagine. And then the use of the European Open Science Cloud could be required in some work programs. We'll see how that turns out. So in conclusion, we go beyond open access of publication and data. There are stronger open access requirements, especially on data, and the aim is to empower authors to provide open access and give them all the rights and things. So open access is encouraged to other research outputs. So we're moving beyond publication and data, open access for software, for models, etc. And there will be a set of applications toward responsible research data management with the DMP and fair research data and open data sharing. But of course, intellectual property rights, exploitation will still be possible, and there will still be some exception to the open data sharing. Open science will become Monday's operating date. So open science will be waived throughout the whole work package. In scientific communications, citizen science will be promoted, combination of application and incentives. There will be sanctions for ground beneficiary that repeatedly and consistently fail to provide the required open access. I can imagine it's especially the case for publications. And appropriate metrics will be set for assessing the impact of research output, because of course, that's important also to make open science a reality that metrics are adjusted to open science requirements. I briefly want to say something about Plan S, because the European Commission is part of the Plan S consortium. So as a reminder, Plan S was set up by Coalition S to make all publications funded by public funds openly available by 2021 immediately. So the core requirements are immediately open access without embargoes. Arters are the institutions retain copyright and publish under an open license, open access fees are the responsibilities of the funders or the research institutions and not the individual researchers, and no support for hybrid models. So the EC is a supporter of Plan S, and then we can now see how this translates in Horizon Europe. So immediately open access without embargoes. Horizon Europe will go for immediately open access, embargoes will no longer be accepted. So open access should be provided through a repository or open access publishing and a repository. So again, repositories stay the main focus of the policy. Arters are the institutions retain copyright and publish under an open license. Copyright retention is already in the Horizon Europe regulation, so I think that's good news. No support for hybrid models, hybrid journals will not be, cost for hybrid journals will not be eligible in Horizon Europe. So it will still be possible I think to publish in hybrid journals, but the cost will not be eligible for funding by Horizon Europe. And that's all that I wanted to say about the policies. We already had some questions to the forum. I'll answer those first and then I'll go to the question that you posed in the Q&A or in the chat. So one of the questions was currently there seemed to be no sanction for projects that do not fulfill their open access RRDM research data management obligation. Are there any signs that this will change in the future or in Horizon Europe? Well, first of all, there are already examples of projects being notified of their obligations and warnings of grant being reduced. So OpenAir has a network of open access experts. So in every country we have a node, which is an open science expert. And they already mentioned that more and more projects are being warned that their publication are not openly available. So this is already the case. And in Horizon Europe it is explicitly mentioned that there will be sanctions for those grant beneficiaries that repeatedly and consistently fail to provide open access. So there will be surely will be first a notice before there will be a sanction. But I think in Horizon Europe there will be stronger control of open access to publication and data. Another question was how different are open science policy to open access digital repositories? I don't know if I interpreted this question quite right, because digital repositories are of course an infrastructure that can help with open science policy. So in Horizon 2020, depositing in an open access repository is the way to comply with open access management. You should always deposit in a repository. And an open access journal is an option, but not mandatory. I'm not sure if that answers the question, but if it doesn't feel free to let me know in the chat. How do academic libraries participate in the open science policy to provide use information needs? Well, that depends on the academic library. Academic libraries basically have a lot of skills and resources that can enable open science. But it depends, of course, on those skills and resources to see what they can do. A lot of people open science experts work in academic libraries. Also, the open-air know-hats, a lot of them work in academic libraries. And what they do is they advocate for open science policies, whether in their institution or national level or in working groups. And they raise awareness of the policies that exist or that the policies of the EC, for example. They can also give support to infrastructure, because libraries are very good in certain things like metadata application. They have experience in curation and preservation of publication, but also of data. They can also train and support researchers because they have the knowledge of the mandates, they have the tools, they have the knowledge of preservation and metadata. So they're really well placed to help researchers on land. And then some academic libraries also take it on them to help with research data management policies or support. But as I said, it depends a little bit on the resources and the skills of the libraries. What will be after Horizon 2020 in Horizon Europe? Well, I sketched a picture a little bit. We're not 100% sure yet, but we can see that it will be a logical follow-up of Horizon 2020. So open access to publication will be an obligation, will become the default, also for open access to data, with some exception. Data management will be, according to the fair principles, will be the default for all the projects that work with data. And then open science will be waived throughout the working program. So that's what we can accept for Horizon Europe. I'm gonna stop sharing my screen and see what questions are in the chat. Stop share. Okay, same questions. So there's a question for which publication type or the open access publishing regulations mandatory. So the open access policy is mandatory for peer-reviewed peer-reviewed publications. It's mainly focused on journal articles. All other materials such as books or great literature or things like that, it's not an obligation, but it's recommended. So you can still try to open them or at least put them in a repository so they're sustainably archived. So that's mandatory for peer-reviewed publishing. So were there other questions? Well, thank you, Emily. I think that's all actually. There's been one question in the Q&A which we answered. And thank you very much for this very detailed oversight of the policies in regards to Horizon 2020 and Horizon Europe. If I may, I'm also from open there, Toby. Emily, did you introduce the NOADs at the beginning and the national points of contacts in each country? No, I didn't. We may put the URL of the NOADs into the chat just so whichever country you're in or representing we have an open air ambassador, a national open access desk who you can contact directly for any information about EC projects and also open science in general and open access mandates. So I'll put that into the chat now. Okay. Thank you, Narsha. Yes. So if you have questions, be sure to contact your national open access desk. They're experts and they're eager to help you. Okay. Also, if you do have any questions or looking for more information, the open air website has a lot of information about policies, but also about data management planning or open access to publication or any other topic on open science. So all questions are very welcome. And if there are no more questions, I think we can close this webinar. Or Narsha, was there something else you wanted to point out, I'd say? No, thank you. Thank you very much, Emily. Thank you very much everybody to join this as well. We'll send the feedback form will be coming to you directly as well. We're always looking to improve, but it was really good from Emily's side. Thank you very much. Okay. Thank you all for joining. You'll get the presentation and the recordings in the mail next week. And you're always welcome with your questions. Okay. Thank you. Bye. Bye. So that will be in your inbox next week. Everybody's muted. But as I said, if you have a question, feel free to use the Q&A function. Okay. I'll think I'll start to share my screen. Tobias, maybe if you could confirm that you can see my screen. That would be nice. Let's see. Hi then. Yeah, it's now switching over. Yes. Looking great. Yeah. Okay. Thank you, Tobias. Good morning all and welcome to this open air webinar. Today we're going to talk about policies and mainly the open science policies in Horizon 2020.  So it's not final yet, but we can say something about it. So to start off, I like to reuse an image because of course that's good practice in open science to reuse things of last year that we used with open access week in Belgium.

And you'll see that all those things will come more and more into focus as we move beyond just open access to publications and open data. So having said that, why is the European Commission interested in open science and what's the aim of the open science policy? Well, the European Commission has always been on the forefront of open science and implemented open science policy early in frameworks. So why? Because it improves the quality of the results if people can consult and see the work that has been done previously. It's increased efficiency because it's encouraged collaboration between different researchers and also it avoids duplication because if you can see data, if you can see results, you do not have to start from scratch or you can already see like this experiment has already been done in a similar way that I was thinking of doing it. It can speed up innovation because now also industry and citizens can consult science. And of course more and more talk about citizen science involving the society and greater transparency which I think is important in this time of fake news and doubt. So there's a lot of benefits about open science and that's why the EC decided to include open science in their policy for their framework programs. So the main open science policies for horizon 2020, I could be really short about it, it's that it's open access to scientific publications.

It's not something that libraries like a lot because of course you pay twice, but in our rise in 2020, those costs are supported. Just remember to always deposit a version in a repository, even if you publish in an open access journal. Where to deposit them? Well, most institutions have their own repositories. A lot of university and research agencies have their own repository. You can also go for a disciplinary repository or for the nodal, which is a multidisciplinary and free repository, which also accepts data and other research outputs, such as presentations or things like that. If you're looking for, if you don't know where to look, there's also a directory of open access repositories. Sherpa Open Door is one for ePrince.org.eprince and OpenAir also have a list with OpenAir compliant repositories, which means that those repositories adopted some guidelines that will make it easier for researchers to report because the information is carried over to the EC reporting tool automatically. What to deposit? It's important that it's the final peer review manuscript. So you can definitely also deposit earlier version, but for the EC it's important that it's peer reviewed version. If you can deposit a publisher's version, that's good too, of course. The publisher version has the layout of the publisher, but publishers do not always allow this version to be deposited. So it's best to check the publisher's policy on what you can deposit. There are two things to remember. So the version, which would be the final peer reviewed version, but also if there's a possible embargo. Some publishers set an embargo before you can actually deposit something. If you want to have an overview of copyright policies and self-requiving permission, you can go to sherpa.org to find an overview of all the policies. So this policy applies to all kind of publication, but the emphasis is on peer reviewed journal articles. So for peer reviewed journal articles, depositing is an obligation. The other such as books or gray literature, it's recommended, but it's not an obligation. When to deposit as soon as possible, the latest on publication and when to provide open access, well immediately, if you can, if your publisher's allowed it, or if you publish an open access journal, of course you can deposit immediately and make it open access, or after an embargo, six months is allowed or 12 months for social science and humanities. So if your publisher does not allow your publication to be deposited, you can always try to amend your publisher agreements and EC has a model amendments that you can use for that reason. So in short, researchers can always decide where to publish. There's no obligation to publish in an open access journal. You can also go for a subscription based journal. Just remember to always self-arguing in a repository and check your publisher's policy on what version you can deposit and if there's an embargo before you can make it openly available. If you go for an open access journal, deposit, but also remember to check possible costs. And you can provide immediately open access to the journal and to the repository. And in case you go for a subscription based journal, that can be a delay due to an embargo, but some publishers also allow you to immediately provide open access. So in short, this is the open access policy. The open data policy is a little bit different. What started as a flexible pilot for open research data became the default in 2017. So all projects are involved now in the open research data pilot. And there are two pillars. So there's on the one side, there's data management planning. And on the other side, there's the open access to research data. This, of course, is highly recommended, but it's not an obligation. And it's important to think of those things as two pillars, because of course, if you cannot make your data openly available for some reason, you can still do data management planning if you reuse or gather any data. So data management planning is almost always possible. Open access to research data is most of the time possible, but not always. So there's an opt out possibility. What are the requirements of this pilot? Well, first to develop a data management plan, where you explain what data you will gather or reuse, what you will do with the data, and how you will make your data usable for other projects. And the EC uses the fair principles to make data as usable as possible, and fair stands for findable, accessible, interoperable, and reusable. So your data management plan basically describes how you will treat your data to make this possible. After your data management plan and your research has been done, you have to deposit data sets in a research data repository together with the necessary information to make your data understandable and usable. Research data repository is similar to a literature repository, but for data. And then if possible, you have to provide access to your research data. These requirements are primarily focused on data that is needed to validate results in scientific publication, but you can also choose to include more data sets or your bar data, and then you can specify it in your data management plan. Participation, as I said before, it started as a limited pilot in 2014, but by 2017 this pilot was extended to all the projects. So participating is now the default option. Costs are eligible for funding for the duration of the project, and there's still the possibility to opt out at any stage. So not only at the beginning of your project, but also if you later find out that you want to exploit your results, for example, you can still opt out of sharing your data. Reasons can be a set expectation of results, confidentiality, or protection of personal data, if no data is generated, or any other reason that you, I mean any other reason that makes sense, of course. If you opt out, projects are still encouraged to develop a data management plan, because as I said before, you can still manage your data even if you cannot make it openly available. So there's decrease of data sharing. This open research data pilot is not a black and white story. The mantra of the EC is try to make your data as open as possible, but as closed as necessary. Don't take any risk. So you have completely open data that is free to use and to modify and to share by anyone for any purpose. And on the other side, you have completely closed data that you're unable to share or is under embargo. But there's a big gray area where you can choose to make some data sets open and close others, or where you can choose to only allow a certain type of users or a certain type of use for your data. So there is this gray area of restricted or controlled data. You can find all the information about the fair data management in Horizon 2020 in the guidelines on fair data management. It explains the extension of the pilots. It clarifies the concept of fair data, so findable, accessible, interoperable and reusable. It explains what the data management plan is and what it is for and when to update it. It notes what happened at different stages of your project. It explained the costs and which costs are eligible. Then very important, it has a template for a data management plan, which are a set of questions, quite a lot actually. And you're not obligated to use this template, but it's very much recommended because all the teams that are in the template should be addressed. So it's easy to use those questions and it will ask you how you make your data fair. So it has a question on interoperability and access to your data and so on. I'm not going to into detail about the practicalities of how to make your data fair and things like that. There was a webinar yesterday about data management plan and also openair.eu has a lot of information about data management and different topics on data management that you can consult. But in short, step one, you should write a data management plan. There are online tools that you can use. You have to find a repository that matches your data needs. Again, there are a number of websites you can consult if you're looking for a data repository. Then you should deposit your data together with the necessary information to make your data accessible, so metadata and other tools. And if you're looking for support, the EC guidelines that I just mentioned are really useful. Openair can provide you with a lot of information. And the DCC, the Digital Creation Center in the UK, is also a good source for information for research data management. So this in short, but open science policies until now. So I'll have a brief look at the future and what I can already say about it. So the evolution of the EU funding programs follow a logical path, I think. So what started as a pilot for open access to publication became mandatory in Horizon 2020 with a pilot for open research data and data management planning. Then in 2017, that became mandatory as well with some exceptions, of course, for sensitive data. And that's where we are now. So in Horizon Europe, this path will follow its logical course, I think. So open access is still mandatory. And then what I think will provide more clarity in the policy is that there will be a distinction between data management planning and open data. So it will not be seen as one big thing anymore, because data management planning is always, always possible. Open data will become the default option, but still exceptions will be possible. And open science will be embedded throughout the whole work program and grant agreement. So what we do know now, the model grant agreement is at the moment an internal document. I haven't seen it yet. I do not work for the UC. I work for open air. But what we can see is that it continues and strengthens the current policy. So it is a logical evolution of the policy. It's still being negotiated. So I am going to say some things about it, but do not pin me down on it. Some changes might still occur. It's still being negotiated. But those are the things that are on the table now. So in Horizon Europe for open science, open access to verification will be insured. So I copied this from a slide from the EC. I find it very funny that I say, no way around this. And then a smiley face. But so it still will be an obligation to make your publication open access. Open access to research data will still be as open as possible and as close as necessary. Then data management will be its own topic. Still there will be data management planning. So DMP will still be included. And it still follows the fair principles for data. And a long-term preservation of data will be insured. Open science practices will be promoted and encouraged. So with incentives and obligations. So this is a stick in the carrot tactic for open science practices. There might be additional obligation to use EOSC. So the European Open Science Cloud, which is a big infrastructure project of Europe for data. So some work programs might be required to use EOSC for storing or giving access to research data. The details about this are not clear yet. We'll see. Artists must retain enough rights for open access. This is important to make open access possible. And exceptions to open access for research data will be better described. As I said before, in Horizon 2020, there were some reasons listed. But then it also, you could also include your own reason. And I think that will probably be more limited or better described what are good reasons for the exception to open access to data. So speaking of data, the research data management will be mainstream with the mandatory data management plan. This will be the case for all the project that generates data or collect data or reuse data. And there will be no exception. So there is no opting out of the DMP requirement for a project that actually works with data. I think that makes sense. Open will be the default for data exceptions to still apply. It's not an opting out, but it's really an exception. So data management still applies, but you can opt out of the open if your data is sensitive. It will still follow the fair research data principles. So a lot of the things that are already in DMP templates, like identifies for such repositories, licenses, and other things, will be also in Horizon Europe, the DMP, I can imagine. And then the use of the European Open Science Cloud could be required in some work programs. We'll see how that turns out. So in conclusion, we go beyond open access of publication and data. There are stronger open access requirements, especially on data. And the aim is to empower authors to provide open access and give them all the rights and things. So open access is encouraged to other research outputs. So we're moving beyond publication and data, open access for software, for models, and etc. And there will be a set of obligations toward responsible research data management with the DMP and fair research data and open data sharing. But of course, intellectual property rights or exploitation will still be possible, and there will still be some exception to the open data sharing. Open science will become Monday's upper one day. So open science will be waived throughout the whole work package. In scientific communications, citizen science will be promoted, combination of application and incentives. There will be sanctions for grant beneficiaries that repeatedly and consistently fail to provide the required open access. I can imagine it's especially the case for publications. And appropriate metrics will be set for assessing the impact of research output, because of course, that's important also to make open science a reality that metrics are adjusted to open science requirements. I briefly want to say something about Plan S because the European Commission is part of the Plan S consortium. So as a reminder, Plan S was set up by Coalition S to make all publications funded by public grants openly available by 2021 immediately. So the core requirements are immediately open access without embargoes. Arters are the institutions retain copyright and publish under an open license, open access fees are the responsibilities of the funders or the research institutions and not individual researchers and no support for hybrid models. So the EC is a supporter of Plan S and then we can now see how this translates in Horizon Europe. So immediately open access without embargoes, Horizon Europe will go for immediately open access, embargoes will no longer be accepted. So open access should be provided through a repository or open access publishing and a repository. So again, repositories stay the main focus of the policy. Arters are the institution retain copyrights and publish under an open license. Copyright retention is already in the Horizon Europe regulations, so I think that's good news. No support for hybrid models, hybrid journals will not be, cost for hybrid journals will not be eligible in Horizon Europe. So it will still be possible, I think, to publish in hybrid journals, but the cost will not be eligible for funding by Horizon Europe. And that's all that I wanted to say about the policies. We already had some questions through the forum. I'll answer those first and then I'll go to the question that you post in the Q&A or in the chat. So one of the questions was currently there seem to be no sanction for projects that do not fulfill their open access or RDM research data management obligation. Are there any signs that this will change in the future or in Horizon Europe? Well, first of all, there are already examples of project being notified of the obligations and warnings of grant being reduced. So OpenAir has a network of open access experts, so in every country we have a node, which is an open science expert, and they already mentioned that more and more projects are being warned that their publication are not openly available. So this is already the case. And in Horizon Europe it is explicitly mentioned that there will be sanctions for those grant beneficiaries that repeatedly and consistently fail to provide open access. So surely there will be first a notice before there will be a sanction. But I think in Horizon Europe there will be stronger control of open access to publication and data. Another question was how different are open science policy to open access digital repositories? I don't know if I interpreted this question quite right, because digital repositories are of course an infrastructure that can help with open science policy. So in Horizon 2020, depositing in an open access repository is the way to comply with open access management. You should always deposit in a repository. An open access journal is an option, but not mandatory. I'm not sure if that answers the question, but if it doesn't feel free to let me know in the chat. How do academic libraries participate in the open science policy to provide use information needs? Well that depends on the academic library. Academic libraries basically have a lot of skills and resources that can enable open science, but it depends of course on those skills and resources to see what they can do. A lot of people open science experts work in academic libraries, also the open air in NORADS, a lot of them work in academic libraries, and what they do is they advocate for open science policies, whether in their institution or national level or in working groups, and they raise awareness of the policies that exist or that the policies of the EC for example. They can also give support to infrastructure because libraries are very good in certain things like metadata application. They have experience in curation and preservation of publication, but also of data. They can also train and support researchers because they have the knowledge of the mandates, they have the tools, they have the knowledge of preservation and metadata. So they're really well placed to help researchers on land. And then some academic libraries also take it on them to help with research data management policies or support, but as I said it depends a little bit on the resources and the skills of the libraries. What will be after rising 2020 in Horizon Europe? Well I sketched a picture a little bit, we're not 100% sure yet, but we can see that it will be a logical follow-up of Horizon 2020. So open access to publication will be an obligation, will become the default, also for open access to data with some exception. Data management will be according to the fair principles, will be the default for all the projects that work with data and then open science will be waived throughout the working program. So that's what we can accept for Horizon Europe. I'm gonna stop sharing my screen and see what questions are in the chat. Let's see, stop sharing. Okay, I see questions. So there's a question for which publication type or the open access publishing regulations mandatory. So the open access policy is mandatory for peer-reviewed publications. It's mainly focused on journal articles. All other materials such as books or great literature or things like that, it's not an obligation but it's recommended so you can still try to open them or at least put them in a repository so the are sustainably archived. So that's mandatory for peer-reviewed publishing. So other questions? Thank you, Emily. I think that's all actually. There's been one question in the Q&A which we answered and thank you very much for this very detailed oversight of the policies in regards to Horizon 2020 and Horizon Europe. If I may, I'm also from open air, Toby. Emily, did you introduce the NOADs at the beginning and the national points of contacts in each country? No, I didn't. We may put the URL of the NOADs into the chat just so whichever country you're in or representing. We have an open air ambassador, a national open access desk who you can contact directly for any information about EC projects and also open science in general and open access mandates. So I'll put that into the chat now. Okay, thank you, Natasha. Yes, so if you have questions be sure to contact your national open access desk. They're experts and they're eager to help you. Okay, also if you do have any questions or looking for more information, the open air website has a lot of information about policies but also about data management planning or open access to publication or any other topic on open science. So all questions are very welcome and if there are no more questions, I think we can close this webinar. Or, Natya, was there something else you wanted to point out? No, thank you. Thank you very much, Emily. Thank you very much everybody to join this as well. We'll send feedback, feedback form will be coming to you directly as well. We're always looking to improve but it was really good from Emily's side. Thank you very much. Okay, thank you all for joining. You'll get the presentation and the recordings in the mail next week and you're always welcome with your questions. Okay, thank you. Bye. Bye.


The reason why the narcissist is never happy with you The reason why they are never satisfied with anything you do for them The reason why they always have something to complain about The reason why they always demand more from you while never appreciating anything that you have already done When the narcissist first targeted you Everything seemed to be fine They didn't demand too much from you It was like they were trying to do everything to make you comfortable It was like they were trying to accommodate you But this is just part of the manipulation This is what is known as love bombing they use it to lure you into the relationship By making you think that things are always going to be this way But really They're just setting you up to be their caretaker They're setting you up to be someone who is responsible for them Because that's what they were looking for when they targeted you They just disguised it as though they were there to support you But if you look back at the time you have spent with them You will always find that they didn't do a fraction of what you did for them You were always the one who was taking them places You were paying the bills You were funding family vacations You received little or no contributions from them They just expected and demanded it from you Although the character they displayed to you at the beginning is very different They make you believe that they are about reciprocation They make you believe that they don't want you to do too much for them if you offer to help them out with something They may even refuse your help or they will offer to do something for you in return Because they want to portray this image of them being someone who doesn't need you They want to make it look like you're the one who needs them Because that's going to be the reason why they need to remain around you They're eventually going to make you doubt your qualities and abilities Even though you may have been fined before you met them they will gas like you And tell you that something was wrong and you needed their help They will make up anything to support their false narrative But whatever you're seeing from them now, that's who they really are And that's what they were held from you in the beginning Because if you had known that you were dealing with someone who is greedy and self-absorbed You never would have accommodated them and they know this Which is why when they first meet you they have to act like they don't really need you At least until they can find a way to trap you That's when the mask will come off and then they will show you who they really are They will show you why they targeted you in the first place They will show you what they want from you When the narcissist targets you there is always a hidden agenda behind it They always have a hidden motive They come to you saying that they just want to help you with something But as time goes by it seems that you're doing more and more from them Or they're doing less and less for you While complaining that you're not doing enough And at this point It should become clear that you are their caretaker They see you as an object that exists to serve them That is the purpose that they have assigned to you Which is why whenever you deviate from this and start focusing on yourself They can't stand it They demand all of your time attention and money Because they feel entitled to it When they targeted you they made a silent agreement in their own minds that you were unaware of That their presence alone requires some form of payment or exchange from you And they expect you to adhere to this agreement Which you have no knowledge or awareness of They expect you to fulfill these obligations that you never agreed to And that were never explained to you Which is why they can never be happy with you Because in their minds when they met you you signed up for this You agreed to satisfy their every whim you agreed to be at their beck and call So you should always be ready to obey their orders and commands immediately You should be completely compliant and obedient to them You should cater to their every need That's just how they see it But naturally as time goes by you are going to run yourself into the ground trying to please them You're going to end up neglecting yourself You're going to want to spend more time alone You're going to run out of energy and money And this is when the problems begin Because if you're dealing with a narcissist All they really want from you is your attention and money They want to use you So that they can feel powerful and in control at your expense So that they can feel comfortable But it's never enough They will take you to the cleaners They will ruin you and when it's all said and done That is when they will leave They're only going to stick around as long as I can get something out of you Because that's what they targeted you in the first place The reason why the narcissist is never happy with you Has nothing to do with you and everything to do with them They're not happy with you Because they're not happy with themselves They are emotionally unstable and they lack emotional depth. They cannot regulate their own emotions Which is why you will often experience these long monologues from the narcissist They can talk about their own feelings or their own situation for hours at a time Without requiring any input from you Because they don't care about your feelings or perspectives They don't care about how you see it All they care about is themselves They are self-absorbed and they lack empathy Which is how they're able to talk for such a long time about all their problems Because they have no empathy for you They can't put themselves in your shoes They can't share your experience To see how that would make you feel And even if they could They wouldn't care They're only concerned with their own feelings and needs And they use other people to regulate their emotions But it's never enough They're like a bucket with a leak at the bottom Whatever you pour into them will always leak out It will never be enough for them They will always feel dissatisfied While never taking responsibility for their feelings But they see their feelings as facts So if they feel dissatisfied That must mean that you did something or didn't do something To cause them to feel that way Which means that you must do something to resolve it You must do something to make them feel better It's like dealing with a small child that has hurt themselves And now they want you to make it better They want you to patch up their wounds But this is a wound that will never be healed Because they attribute it to you doing something to them When it's something that they need to resolve themselves And this is why the problems never end This is why no matter what you do They will never be happy with you Because they are not happy with themselves And they're not going to take responsibility for their own emotions They're not going to take the necessary step to heal themselves Which means that you are always going to be held responsible for their feelings You are always going to be held responsible for where they are in life Thank you for watching I hope this video resonates with you Please like, comment, share and subscribe If you would like to donate My paypal link is in the video description Coaching inquiries You can email me at coaching.narksurvivor.co.uk Thank you for watching and I'll talk to you soon


That's a downdraft inside the Nasdaq folks of 2.05%, S&Ps 7 tenths of 1%, and the Dow was up 4 tenths of 1%. Gold contract down $8.90 trading at 2010 an ounce. We had silver up 46 cents, $24.92 an ounce, light sweet crude up 28 cents, $75.63 a barrel, notes and bonds. A 10-year note. Dow 26 ticks trading $1.1205, the 30-year up down a full point, plus 14 ticks at $126.05 and King Gala. King Gala traded up 543 ticks, 100.824 Euro, 111 yen, 140 British pound, 128 to 1 US dollar. We get over and take a look at the spy first folks. We had a little expansion on the volume of the spy. Nothing heavy though, because you're going into 80 million, you did 63. That being said, there's no reason the spy can't get back to this 443 and right now you're at 452. And here's where there is divergence. The Q's, and we're going to have huge amount of volatility in the Q's tomorrow and Monday for sure. Now the Q's came down with monster volume, 67 million. We made a high out here with 55. You're going into 55 also. Well you made a high with 54, you're going into 55. So we're already at 376. It gave up 8.5 points, so 372 is pretty easy to get to. Now what's going to be intriguing here is that it's going to be how it gets into that level. The reason I'm saying that is that what's going to also be happening is that when we get into the 371, if in fact you break that with volume, then you are basically breaking the whole uptrend. And that would be pretty intense, because then you're talking about a 323 inside the Q's. I mean we went straight up, but we'll take it step by step here. But if you're watching Target TV, you can see it's a good looking chart, as long as it doesn't break that trend. Have a great night, folks. Have a safe night. We get option exploration, monthly option exploration tomorrow. You have the rebalancing of the NASDAQ on Monday. Man, there's going to be some good action. Join Tommy tomorrow morning. Kicks us off 9 a.m. Great show, folks. Well, yeah, look at him, folks.
