Welcome to World's Best Videos, we've come about the list of facts about Little Pump. Little Pump was born and raised in Miami Gardens Florida. Despite not liking to mention his age, he was born on August 17th, 2000 which makes him 16 years old. He got into rapping because of his friend Smoke Perp. He met Smoke Perp because of his cousin. His cousin brought Smoke Perp around Little Pump and they clicked. Smoke Perp mentions that Little Pump was the only one down to do dumb stuff so they shared a strong bond. In a recording session Smoke Perp was having Little Pump was freestyling. Smoke Perp encouraged Little Pump to start recording. Little Pump never really considered it but freestyled on a beat and released the track. The first song he released was called 30s and it featured Smoke Perp. He released two songs after that and caught traction. They didn't get that popular until they started releasing music videos. He has had two twitters suspended before making his current twitter, Little Pump Jetski. He has over 70,000 twitter followers as of this video. He mentions in a tweet that they suspended it because he was being too ignorant but he says he doesn't care and will continue to be ignorant. It was his version of the word ignorant and that was first set on the Mars Files interview at 2420. On February 20th, 2017, Little Uzi Vert took to twitter to shout out some rappers that he respected. He said shout out to at Little Pump Jetski in which Little Pump responded with gang. His dream collaboration would feature Chief Keef and Fredo Santana. He didn't have a high school experience because he was kicked out of all public schools. He got kicked out after starting a riot that led to violence. He was sent over to an opportunity school only just to stop going. His idol is Chief Keef. Little Pump never had a real job and he mentions in an interview that he first started getting money by selling Xanax. In 7th grade he got into a fight with a girl after she threw gum in his hair. He mentions that Chief Keef's don't like had a large influence in the fight. He does mention that he doesn't promote hitting women but if a woman tries him he will have to slap you.

So I am going to move to our standard agenda and Rae said would you like to discuss new business? We have no new business. Okay there you go. So we have a general plan visioning session. Is Amy on do we have Amy? We do. Okay. Amy would you like to introduce this visioning session? Good morning. I'd love to. So you may have heard this because we have hosted district workshops with all the council members present but today I did want to provide a quick presentation on our general plan visioning process which is one of the first stages and we've just done a lot of community outreach on this and engagement. So I do have a brief presentation for you today on this. Excellent. Thank you. Are you ready to get started? Yes. All right. Give me one second. I'll share my screen here. Let's see here. All right. Has everyone seen my presentation? Yes. I see it. Great. All right. So we're going to go ahead and just jump right in. So our general plan process is very big picture. So this is really looking at how our communities are created and all the physical components. So schools, shopping, freeways, where you live, how you define your community, where is downtown, all of those different things. But it doesn't only just deal with the physical components but also the social components. So we also look at education and access to Mary and please excuse me one second. I have kids home for the summer and they are full of energy. And so we do want to make sure that the community has an opportunity. Please leave and close the door. Thank you. Thank you. Close the door. Okay. Thank you. Apologies. So we are looking at not just the physical but the social pieces as well. So our general plan process really only happens once every 10 years or so. So we're asking the community what they want to see in 2050. And we've been really excited and of what we've heard. And so we're going to share a little bit about what we've heard today. And then just to give you an overview of what process we're in, this is a three-year process and it will conclude in 2023. So we are just here right now. And so our next phase will be looking at different land use and circulation alternatives. And then we'll go into policy development and environmental review. And then it'll come forward to planning commission and city council in 2023 for consideration of adoption. So it's a long process and we'll be coming to the public at various points of the process to engage and get comments. And so it's exciting. This process also includes an update for our climate action plan. It will include an update to our housing element and also incorporates policy related to environmental justice and safety. And it also we do have a grant from Kaiser Permanente to do health equity and outreach and engagement with our vulnerable populations. So a couple other key pieces of this is one our community advisory committee. We have a group of 25 that are not only our liaisons but are also a group that really helps us understand where we should be reaching out to. So we really get a full engagement opportunity with our community. So we are looking to fill a couple remaining seats on this community advisory committee. So if there are people on the line who are interested or do you know others in the community, we are just accepting applications just for a couple more days before we conclude that and then move those forward towards potential appointments. And then we also have a technical advisory committee which are really our technical leads from various departments of the city, from other governments, from transportation components such as SMART and our Sonoma County Transportation Authority. And so this group has been with us throughout this process so far as well and will continue. And so we really do rely on that CAC, Community Advisory Committee and then our technical advisory committee. So we do have a robust website that's available and this is going to be our one-stop shop for the whole project ongoing. So there's a lot of good data on here in which we'll talk about a little bit. And as we post surveys for the community or you just want to provide input, this is a great place to go. And then we also have our community vision workshops that just concluded. So this was one piece of the activities that we did during this event set. And the 10 workshops was really our effort to get down to that neighborhood level. We did host at least one workshop in each district. We do really appreciate all the input that you all provided and the engagement that you helped us get. So we also did some Spanish only meetings and then bilingual meetings as part of this. This is just a little snippet of what we saw and what we heard. So we did have our first workshop that was posted in February that recently closed. We had over 1,300 people reply to the survey, which was a great response. We have another one out now. So we hope to beat that. But the responses on this were very interesting because we did ask people to map their neighborhood and we'll continue to use this data. But we really wanted to hear from people what they considered to be their heart of their neighborhood. How big of an area do people consider it to be their neighborhood? So it was really kind of an interesting thing to ask and to get responses on. And when we asked about what the heart of people's neighborhoods were, we did hear that the heart is really where they live. So the middle of their neighborhood. But also where people get shop services and retail. So a lot of neighborhoods have a little node of retail activity. But also there's also places like a park or church or school that can reflect part of that community. And then we also talked about what are the most important changes you would like to see in Santa Rosa. And so top of mind for a lot of folks have been our fires. So natural hazards have really come forward. And then also just housing for all. And then also community public services and amenities and then economic job growth. And then we asked what excites people about Santa Rosa. And this was also a fun question to get responses on because it really shows the optimism and resilience of our community. But we did hear a lot about affordable housing and that housing for all. And then also just the protection of our natural resources of being those top recipients. And then we also moved into our vision statements that we've provided to the public. As really a starting point, just to gauge how people felt about these various words and the statements that went behind them. These were originally developed based on conversations we had with our community advisory committee, with our technical team, and among our staff team and some of the various community workshops that we had had up to the point of our district workshops. And so we wanted to put something out there for people to react to. So these draft division statements were provided and we were able to get a lot of great feedback. And we will be talking about these draft vision statements a little bit here. And then I won't give it all away, but we will come into the planning commission and city council at a joint meeting in July to really talk about what we heard and to get feedback on the final set of vision statements. So the first set of vision statements I'm just going to go through. Inclusive and just being two of these words. And so that's really representing the just equity for all and providing opportunity for people to engage with our government and understanding where the barriers are to participation. And then just really representing the impact of environmental justice and the need in our community and making sure that we have the opportunity related to the built environment and how that impacts people's lives and health. And speaking of health, this was a big component of what we heard. And we do want to make sure that in the future our neighborhoods are healthy and vibrant. And then also resilience, which was a word that really caused a lot of conversation in our district workshops. I think this word has meant a lot for a lot of different people. And sometimes people weren't really sure what it was meant to represent. But resilience in this framework is really looking at the ability for our community to bounce back, but also for our city and the services to be able to restore infrastructure and we have sustainable efforts there. And then we also want prepared and sheltered. So prepared really looking at the awareness of what natural hazards we have in our community and making sure that we have not just a city preparedness, but a community preparedness. And then sheltered diverse mix of high quality, safe, well designed housing at all different affordability levels. And then equitable. So making sure that convenient and access is open for all in our community. Successful and connected. So successful really being that representative of the economic piece and making sure that in the future we do have a thriving economy that will be able to sustain and provide opportunities for for all. And then connected so that multimodal and reliable opportunities for not just transit, but bike and pedestrian. So really that full full gamut of opportunity there. Then we also have safe and educated. So safe. Not just for our public or personal safety, but public safety as well, making sure that we feel safe in our neighborhoods and in our communities. And then educated making sure that we have opportunity for education for all. And that we have a connected community to really be able to support that. So these draft vision statements conclude with just these two so cultural and sustainable cultural our ability to really celebrate our rich culture and heritage we have here in Santa Rosa and in Sonoma County, and then sustainable so our natural resources and making sure that we are able to protect the resources that we have and be able to access those open space areas for our community. So the next steps with these vision statements, as I noted is July 20th, we will be coming to the City Council and Planning Commission for a study session. And we will be looking for feedback and and there's still time for the community to give us feedback as well. So we are right now we've been going to a variety of different community organizations, and we have also on agendas for other various boards and commissions. So we want to get as much awareness out there and as much input as we can. Because these vision statements really do lay out a foundation for the remaining policy work for this general plan effort. So it's an important piece and a really exciting piece to hear from the community on what people would like. So with that, I will complete my presentation and I'd be happy to answer any questions that you have. Good job. Thank you Amy. You know, when I attended them, attended the meeting in my district, you know, even though there wasn't a ton of people, the respondents were engaged and really added a lot of richness to the process and the conversation. So it's not and I mentioned it that night is really not about the quantity of people that are attending because, you know, all sorts of people could attend that are minorly interested. These are people that these are, you know, residents that are really engaged and want to make a difference. So it was really it was rewarding to hear their responses. And I know that the experience was was made richer again by their attendance. So it was I would I would call it a great success, the one that I was able to attend last. Any questions or comments? Eddie or Victoria seeing none. We thank you Amy very much. And so what is the next meeting? What district are you meeting next in? So we've actually concluded all of our district meetings. So now we are going to boards and commissions. And then we have quite a lot of community meetings on the books. So although we had I can't remember how many attended our district workshops, that is one piece of the full range of things we're doing. So we're actually reaching out to a lot of folks just individually and through existing meetings and organizations as well. So that's that's really the main effort. But if you if you do want to see if there's people in the call, they're have were, you know, very open to any comments on the vision statements or anything related to the general plan as well. Okay, excellent. And so good luck on your on the next series of engagements with the community. You guys are doing a great job. So do we have Eileen, do we have any public comment on this item? We have no raise hands at this time. Okay, thank you very much. So then we'll move on to 3.2 the child care support program update. Raisa. Hey, this might be a short meeting for us today unless we have a lot of stuff to say about childcare. But so this I just wanted to give you an update where we are and who we've been meeting with on the childcare stuff. So super quick recap. We've got $2 million, sort of from the CARES Act funds, right? I think it's from general funds, but they're general funds free that from the CARES Act. And we came up with a two part childcare support pilot program. And the first part, we spent $600,000 on two efforts. And it was the first was, you know, working with first five to provide grants that would see the existing childcare, those childcare that didn't close childcare centers and family childcare slots that didn't close down due to COVID, just to get them through the pandemic as best we can. I have to get the final report from first five to know how many people the grant supported, but our $500,000 went into their program that was leveraged by, I think they had a couple hundred thousand dollars left of their own funds for first five. And then other organizations were incentivized to increase the grant program to also provide funds. I think there were about five organizations that ended up participating and including like Sonoma County Foundation or the foundation of Sonoma County. And there was something like $1.5 million in grants given, but the money from Santa Rosa stayed within the city. And again, the bulk of childcare providers actually reside within the city. And then the other $100,000 went to Four Seas to, because we also have a pipeline issue, and it was to double the amount of trains they have to prepare childcare providers for licensing or just to get them in and started up. And that's again for childcare providers and centers, but also home care, home-based childcare, because those are the, that's the area where we have the most lots available. So that was the first phase. And then the second thing we'd always wanted to do something was facilities, some kind of a facility fund. And here's where Victoria and I have been working together to research and understand what's possible with the, and really how to leverage the remaining $1.4 million, because that's not a lot of money, but we were trying to figure out what would be the best use of those funds to spur and incentivize new contributions. And then how do you, what could we do with the funds so that it wasn't unlike a grant program where you use it once and then it's gone? How do you perpetuate the funds, right? So we've been researching and talking to a number of people and that we've met with developers and providers, early childcare education organizations like First Five Four Seas and other organizations, the Chamber of Commerce, for example. And what we came up with was, at least for our first phase, and Victoria, correct me if I'm wrong if we had other things, but we realized, okay, there's new facilities and existing facilities. And we are still getting calls for like, I need to, I don't want to buy this facility. This childcare provider is going to go out of business, but I don't have the funds to buy it, so we want to salvage the existing facilities we can or rehabilitate them. And then the other side is new facilities. And they both come down, like in talking to developers and providers on what would make most sense, it comes down to tenant improvement fund. Because on the new facility side, generally they can't get loans, so a developer will build a shell. But the providers can't get the loans for the specific childcare kind of build up that they need for the programming. And the programming is really different depending on the age that you're gearing towards. So infant is pretty different and it's all very regulated, but infant build out is very different from toddler to older kid build out. So we came up with, at least for the start, that we can try to come up with a tenant improvement loan, right? But in speaking with, so the issues that we had with that were, okay, with a loan, we have $1.4 million. Again, how do we increase those funds? And the other thing is how do we structure something to where, you know, these organizations like childcare providers with really no margins in their business to be able to afford even a low cost loan. And then the other things were, you know, are we the right organization to actually run this? Should this come out of the city or who do we need to think about something like a red or something like that for childcare, where there's a JPA who could actually run a loan program or can we get involved with a bank or something like this? And so on those two things and speaking with first five, so we immediately thought we could first five do because they do this. So I spoke with Angie Dillon Shore and they don't have one now, but first five used to run some kind of a loan program. And so she knows that they have it within their capabilities to do. It's not prohibited, is what she said. And it's something that is of interest to them. But they have their thing, she's thinking at this point that could it be a collaborative effort with like RCU or one of our local banks, so that it could, you know, so that it could run it smoothly and the entirety of the burden isn't on first five. So recognizing right there, there's going to be a loan fund, but then we'd have to also address the fact that there's administrative costs to this. And again, we're starting to eat away at the 1.4 and again, increasing the need to get additional buy-in.  So it would have to be a below market, you know, to no interest kind of loan program. And they're, you know, the thing that would be most sustainable, the most not most sustainable for the for the program, but for the organizations receiving these is, is there an option for forgiveness. And so these are the things that we're beginning to have to figure out is if it's a loan, what does it look like? How much can we actually loan out? What are the criteria? But then also is there something like with our permits? We do charge for permits, but if the organization gets up and running and they prove that they're open for business, those, those permit fees are reimbursed. Is there a way to do something similar for this? But if we do it, then what does it mean to the sustainability of the fund? Okay. And then the other thing before I put this up for conversation is, is there are so many initiatives at the state and federal level that I cannot follow them. And Angie even said that she's having a hard time tracking what's happening at the state and federal level. So, you know, I sort of floated this, like, can we just set those aside? And those would be bonus. This can be a standalone thing. And hopefully, there could be enough flexibility built into it that we can leverage whatever comes up from state and federal, because if we're really looking at a loan program, and then we look at next phases or building a program, I think we can build in that flexibility into it. Because they're in this tough spot now of trying to understand what's coming down in the next two years in terms of funding, which will be competitive from state and federal. How do we set ourselves up to be most competitive? And what are the uses of those funds, right? The other thing that she's looking at that first five is looking at is a 2022 ballot measure. And so this is where we began looking at what is a sustainable source of funding for either this program or other needs that would be complimentary. And it would be a measure for infrastructure funding for ongoing ECE funding. And she was initially looking at it, or they I should say first five, in terms of a wage parity question, because again, our pipeline is in dire straits right now. Even though there are programs that are continuing to train people and get providers ready to provide this or open their own centers, they're earning 15, 20 an hour, and they can earn more elsewhere. And we're finding that the pipeline, like if they'll come in for a couple of years, and then the lead because they can't afford to have this job. And then the other thing is she said, well, if we do get this funding, we pass this ballot, and she would like to work with the city of Santa Rosa to promote this need for this ballot. She would put a little bit into facilities as well, because again, we need the both of them. So that pipeline question remains an issue, but it's less of an issue on training. And I'm hearing this throughout the Bay Area talking to people, it's just like anything else at an entry-level wage thing, this is the biggest issue at the moment. And so I'm wondering, maybe we begin exploring something like we did with the minimum wage, maybe it's an isolated wage ordinance in Santa Rosa that sort of forces the question of what's a living wage for our child care providers. They're not paid the same as like our teachers or things like that. So that became another question that's a little bit separate from the TI program. And then the other thing that we talked about is, well, two things, is the timeline for getting the program together. So I think we're starting to make those steps moving forward. And can we do it in advance of the 2022 ballot that they're thinking of putting together? And what does that look like? And then eventually what other things feed into it. And then the last thing is a longer term goal. And she pointed out that there's a place in King County, Washington, where they have Best Starts. It's a continuum program. And it's called Best Starts for Kids. And they look at zero to five, but then they look at the continuum of needs thereafter, which are not necessarily based in the standard school-based systems. And so in short, in summary, we're making progress too, and we've honed in on the tenant improvement grant, or not grant loan program. And we think we have a house for it. We have initial funds. Our next phases are building the program out enough to get additional buy-in for it. And then eventually finding other sustainable inputs. And then the second piece of that is the longer term piece, because the tenant improvement item is only a first step in this next phase that we're doing. And that is all I have to tell you. Well, thanks, Raisa. That's a lot. You guys have come a long way. Victoria, anything you'd like to add? Well, I want to thank Raisa and her team, as well as the first five for doing all of this research. I mean, as you can see, it's so broad and variable. And there's issues about capital and labor and regulations and unknowns with state funding and how that's going to come down. So I'm just really appreciative that folks have been willing to take on such a complex topic. And I also want to say to our staff's credit that I don't know of too many other, actually, I don't know if any other in the state of California, jurisdictions smaller than that at the state level that are really looking at this stuff. I think maybe San Mateo or Santa Clara County, one of the counties in the peninsula, but we should really be proud that we're taking this on. What's interesting is Oakland, Raisa, because I mentioned it on a call and she was like, can you tell me what you're doing? I think other jurisdictions are looking at it, but they haven't thought as creatively as we have about it yet. Well, it's really wonderful because I know that when they hear this, it really gets other people to the table, which is my primary concern around this because it is so big and broad. We really can't go it alone in the long run. I really appreciate your effort there, Victoria, and of course the staff. Everyone is involved in not only moving this forward, but getting other jurisdictions to understand the importance of it. So it's really, really important. Eddie, did you have any questions or comments on this? No, sir. Just when we speak about broad the situation is where the issue is, I think it speaks also to the different sectors of our community that it does affect. And although business we don't really associate with the child care, it's greatly affected. And just seeing how broad the situation is, I just want to point it out that in the different sectors of our economy, it truly is broad. Yeah, good point. Thank you. I have a question though. Because it's a new piece of it, and I think from a policy perspective, could be looked at differently than the tenant improvement program. Is that question of that wage parity or something like this? I'm trying to figure out what an answer might be. It's interesting to me that First Five is looking at a valid measure, and she hasn't really figured out how to answer that. But from a jurisdictional perspective, am I on the right track in thinking, is there like an ordinance thing? Like I can't figure out how to begin addressing that piece of it. Yeah, so John, is it okay if I jump in? Yeah, please. Okay. So when you said that, Roy, you said something that always sort of bugs me, and I think about how the system is really unfair for these people who work with children in daycare settings. And I was like, oh boy, once we start talking about this, how are we going to do the facilities thing? So when we were going to get into comments and questions, I was going to try to separate the two issues. Because I think that once we start getting into this, it's a worthwhile topic, but it's also one that I have never seen the public sector regulate, pay by industry. I've seen minimum wages instituted, and contractors compelled to pay their employees certain minimums based on working with a governmental agency. But I've never heard of anything like a government saying you can't pay in this industry below a certain amount. So I was unsure, like, how are we going to conceptualize that in principle? Are we going to say that people who work in childcare, in entry level childcare are more valuable than people who work in, I don't know, other types of low paid areas that require skill, dedication, and hard work that society doesn't value, or are we going to look at other ways to reinforce the value and therefore increase the wage, but also provide business owners and operators with the supports that they need in order to pay their employees in a way that's sustainable. And that's where I come back to, like, well, can we ease the burden for them around tenant improvements? And can we make that a sustainable thing? Can we look for funding at the state level? And then I know the state has ongoing practices around increasing education requirements. And there's been increasing interest and progress. I'll be a very slow in organizing and unionizing workers in that area. And so I think that given how tight the labor market is at this point, that at some point, there will be the demand will will exceed the availability. And I'm hoping that there are things besides us coming in and saying, you can't pay somebody in this sector below certain wage. And my concern is if we do that, that operators are not going to be able to hack it. So yeah, I mean, I was like, I was like, I don't know. I don't know. I had never heard like, Oh, this makes this much. I know that there are things where I forget what they're called, but in the labor laws, where they have specific mandates for industry groups, but the minimum wage is always the same, right? But if you work in this group, then these are the considerations. And I forget what those are called, like wage mandates or something like this, prevailing wage is I mean, in is kind of the concept you might be thinking about, but that's that would be a government body having a putting in a project like, like, like the JC, for instance, they can demand if it's a governmental, if it's the government building it, you can demand prevailing wage. And it's that kind of model that I think would could potentially work. But it does intrude into private enterprise. And unless we were paying, unless it was our project, where we could demand prevailing wage, in that kind of at least that kind of model, I don't know, I think it would be it would be probably like you said, Victoria, a bit of an uphill battle, I think. But it doesn't even make sense in a way, like if you think it through, because if you're demanding that they pay more, it's still like when the what's the overhead wears the pass through. So maybe it's actually not, you know, an ordinance for that, but it's yet another it's it's like the dual program of not just facility funds, so you decrease the cost of them to actually create the center through the tenant improvement, right, so that it takes that that ongoing cost burden off of them, right, or the initial I should say cost burden off of them.  So is there a way to, you know, in looking at in that vein, I mean, it's still another program, but but that's one where it's not it can't perpetuate itself because it's just an output, and there's no repaying. So we're a tenant improvement loan can do this, then it's this question of ongoing funds to be able to pay the to have some kind of a tuition guarantee so that they can actually afford to pay for their staff. So one, so one thing that a couple of ideas come to mind on that count, one is, you know, there's one is the long range saying of working with the state to say, hey, for the vouchers, you know, you need to bump up the amount. Another thing locally is if there were a measure and that we were going to support saying something like, you know, maybe we would do a voucher, a gap voucher or something with a stipulation that, you know, if you accept these gap vouchers, it's really about, you know, like when you pay it now, you know, when you go to a restaurant, they add a lot of places are starting to just add the gratuity into it.  So, you know, perhaps we could essentially make the gap vouchers intended to help subsidize employee wages. And we could say, you know, with this, this is intended to help you pay X amount of dollars to your employees. And then so maybe actually then I mean, because like what role does the city have, we don't have funds that to do an ongoing contribution rate. So then maybe it is saying to, you know, first five, if they do put that ballot measure in, we'll just focus it in on that on that wage issue. So that we can I mean, or focus it on that on the wage issue, but focus it on the pipeline issue. And wage is a piece of that pipeline issue. And then we can then continue to look at solely at the funds or the cities themselves, because if first five runs, this is not going to just be for us, but it would be return to source. And we can just focus then on the, the tenant improvement piece of it and other structural infrastructure elements of it. And then that's a fine line and it keeps it within our lane. You know, the other one other thing, and this is kind of philosophical and esoteric. So I appreciate you and my colleagues bearing with me on this. But the real reason why that these wages are so low is not just because the employees are female and people of color. That is one significant element. But the other is because people widely consider childcare to be, you know, on the margins of, of a working woman's earnings. So, you know, we're not looking at the, the man's earnings in general, people are assessing whether or not that it makes economic sense for a mother to go to work versus care for children at home. And so to the extent that we can work with the chamber and our partners around changing the narrative, if we ever do get something into the ballot, I would, I would really suggest, you know, marketing this as not just an economic benefit to women, but an economic benefit to our businesses and to working men as well. And I'd get a picture of Jack going to work with his baby strapped to him or something like that. You know, you got to, I think we really have to, to start to reimagine what the purpose of this is. Because to my mind, it's not just about helping women in the workforce, but it's also, as I think we all know, strongly tied to future economic development for the children who, who get to go to high quality daycare. And when they do do that, the cost of society down the road is so, is so great, greatly reduced in terms of prison and remediation and so forth. But it's, it's sort of stuck in this, this place that it's all about the parent. And if we can shift that to it being about the economy and about the child, I think that, you know, will be part of a really long term change in, in understanding the value of it. And that will drive wages up when people see the value in it for everybody. Well, you think you just nailed it. I mean, upstream investment is always, always difficult to, to achieve because people are slow to understand the value and you're right. I mean, we're talking about the future, our future when we talk about our kids and the better their, better their education and the better their exposure to nurturing adults and other kids for that matter, the better off the entire society is, but it is, you know, you're right. It's, that is a major upstream investment and, and it affects all the things you just mentioned and it's, it is a, it is a challenge. It's always a challenge. It's always a payoff. It's a slow, it's, it's slow, steady payoff, but it's, it's a challenge to get people to buy in in the beginning. It's just, it's the nature of the beast, unfortunately.   Before, before, before you go, race, I don't, I hate to interrupt, but we're going to, we probably need to, to, in the future, we're going to have to not have meetings at 10 o'clock when we have a 12 o'clock council meeting, which we didn't know. And we didn't know we were going to have closed session until it happened. So we're going to have to watch our, our agenda because we're going to, we are, we're at 1045 and we have to be at City Hall between 1130 and 12. So we're starting to get there. I think we're almost finished. I just want to say I have just one thought that that I'll bring back later in when we, when we do this. And that is maybe there's a way to get, do greater incentives to employer-based child care where that, where the provider is, is either an employee of the, of that employer-based child care site, like key site, and paid at a higher level than, and then they get the benefits and stuff like that. Or some kind of thing where, again, with the employer-based thing, maybe there's, there's a way to be able to show the ability. And I think, again, that's a place where we can play. And we can maybe build that into the system. Yeah, that sounds like an opportunity there. I like that. Yeah. So this gives me enough. And I know, Eddie, you want to say something? No, for me, so it was pretty much saying that this conversation is identical to the ones that we have about teachers. They're great contributions to society yet they're very fully compensated. And my, my suggestion, or is being newly involved in, in the elected, as an elected official, is what has worked for the, for the teachers organizations, for the teachers union to, to increase their pay. I know very, very little, as we know that they're still very poorly paid, but it's definitely, I see it as identical conversation that we're having. Yeah, you're right. I'm very close. It's totally tied, actually. I, I see them as, as parallel, parallel tracks. Well, I need to go to the community and see if there's anyone from the public, Eileen, that would like to address this. We do not have any raise hands at this time. Okay, well, I'm going to, I'm going to jump in and ask for, for, I think this is already in the works, but I'm short term rentals and how that might be coming back to the economic development. So that's on the August agenda. Okay. Yeah. And there's, we will not have a meeting in July. So the next meeting is August and it will be short term rentals. And just because I think you probably all received that the emails that we received this from this last weekend. It's just, it's just quite, I mean, my heart goes out to people that are, that are being victimized by bad players. It's just really, and I didn't even know it was happening. I mean, it's like, I guess the, these, the situation that we're talking about, which I'm sure you all got the, I'm maybe not, did everyone get emails this weekend about a situation with a large home? Anyway, there's, it's, it's, it's really kind of devastating to this particular neighborhood. And it's not the, we need to address, we need to have a conversation about it. So we'll get it on the agenda as soon as possible. It sounds like it's going to hit in August. And the staff is gathering information and data to help us with our, with our conversation and how, how we might be recommending something to full council. And staff is working on the issue itself as, as we might be talking about it. Staff is also working on what they can do, given our current ordinances to try to alleviate some of the pain being suffered by some of the, some of the neighbors of these bad players. So I think if that, I think that'll just about do it if I'm not mistaken. Thanks you guys. Short, but very valuable conversation. Thank you all, and we'll see you soon.


Hello, everyone. I'm Le He from Tsinghua University. One of the authors of the paper improved primary attacks on foreign ketchup 224-256. This paper has been published in TOSC Volume 2021, Issue 1. On behalf of all the authors, in this video, I will give about 20 minutes presentation to explain our work in this paper. As the title indicates, the analysis object of this paper is foreign low-capacity ketchup and the attack type is limited to pre-image attack. Moreover, we focus on linear analysis, which is commonly used in pre-image fields. We improve the linear analysis by a technology named freedom reuse strategy, which will be mainly discussed in this video. This strategy works for partial linearization part and it can be directly applied in any full linear structure. Then we choose the currently best linear structure for low-capacity ketchup proposed in LS-19. As a result, reduce the attack complexity by factors of 2 to the power of 15 and 2 to the power of 21. An important note is the complexity here and even in the whole video refer to gas times instead of ketchup running. We just neglect the cost of solving the linear exchange system in total counting. This page briefly summarizes some related work in pre-image fields of wrong-reduced ketchup. Firstly, in MS-13, the authors provide pre-image attacks with SAT server. This kind of attack can outperform exotic search in ketchup reduced to 3 rounds. Then the authors further apply the rotational creep analysis in MP-13. This kind of attack even works in foreign high-capacity ketchup. As far as we know, this is the only work that provides pre-image creep analysis on foreign ketchup 512 since linear analysis can hardly deal with it. In GLS-16, a two-round full linear structure of ketchup run function is proposed. This structure can be directly applied in three-round ketchup while attacks for four-round ketchup still requires another process of partial linearization. In LS-19, the authors develop the linear structure via an allocated model. This model works extremely well in three-round ketchup and even helps in providing the first practical pre-image for three-round ketchup 224. However, their partial linearization strategy for foreign ketchup is still inefficient. Our work directly inherits this developed model and just makes efforts in partial linearization. The complexities of pre-image attacks on foreign ketchup 224-256 are summarized in this table. From the comparison, we can see that for foreign ketchup, an efficient partial linearization strategy can even bring more gains than a developed linear structure. So, partial linearization is indeed a major problem. Before getting into the main part, we first learned some preliminaries of ketchup about calculating, output, and some important notations. As we all know, ketchup was the winner of Sha Sui competition and finally standardized in 2015. The designers adopted a new proposed iterative construction named sponge. In this video, we will now present the execution of general sponge. For more details, please refer to the ketchup reference. We only focus on a certain case that its iterative core, ketchup affirmation is executed only twice, as shown in the figure below. This is exactly the attack model we use in this paper. As for the ketchup affirmation, it runs on a 1600-bit inner state. The inner state can be organized as a 5 times 5 times 64 cuboid and each bit is indexed by a triple x, y, z, where x and y vary from 0 to 4 and z varies from 0 to 63. According to the ketchup reference, the cuboid can be cut into different parts named rows, columns, lengths, or slices under certain x or y or z, as shown in the figure. Then, each execution of ketchup f consists of 24 rounds of round function r and each r includes five steps, theta, row, pi, chi, iota. We understand that not all listeners are familiar with the ketchup function, so we fade the concrete formulas out and try to highlight the properties of those steps. Well, theta is a diffusion layer by the sum operation among 11 bits, row is an inland rotation permutation, pi is an in-slice swap permutation, chi is a 5-bit quadratic xbox which is the only nonlinear step in ketchup f, and iota is a constant sum layer which can be ignored in linear analysis. After finishing all ketchup executions, the digest is output from the first L bits of the final state. The counting order is z, x, and finally y. The directions are given in the figure. We set this page here just to emphasize that, in ketchup 224, digest from the fourth line corresponds to z from 0 to 31. The last part of preliminaries is quite important because it involves the meanings of those annotations we use in this paper. Resulting these annotations, those construction figures of linear structure or freedom of strategy might be hard to understand. First, we need to mark the execution status of a middle state. We use a capital quiz letter with the superscree to denote the state exactly after the corresponding step. Here alpha is among theta, row, pi, chi, iota, and i starts from 1. We pronounce it alpha i, for example pi third, which means the state after the third pi step is the last linear state in the linear structure. In particular, iota zeros denotes the initial state after absorbing the message block. Then we can further denote one bit from a certain state with a triple index in the subscript. We pronounce it alpha i, x, y, z. For example, chi fourth zero zero zero to chi fourth four zero thirty one corresponds to the output of four one ketchup 224. Here we inverse the last iota step before searching the pre-image. We may also use star symbol to denote a part of a certain state. The star symbol here means all legal values. For example, pi third star y z is a five-bit row, pi third x star z is a five-bit column, pi third x y star is a 64-bit length, and pi third star star z is a five times five slice. Column sum is significant value in theta steps. We use symbol s to denote the column sum so that we can simplify some calculating formulas. This symbol is marked by a certain state with xz, which denotes the sum of corresponding five-bit column. Now we can start our improved linear analysis of ketchup. First of all, we should expand how linear analysis works in ketchup-run function. It is self-evident that the core of linear analysis is to construct linear relations between input bits and output bits. Suppose we have input m, output o, and we may need some linked variables l to connect input and output. We set some conditions in m to linearize parts of l, and then set conditions in l to linearize part of o. There is also another way where we start from l, linearizing forwards and backwards. Here we only focus on the direct linearization. As long as we linearize any bit in o, we successfully construct a linear root from the encryption function. Then we can satisfy some conditions in linearized output bits, and each condition brings a gain of 2 to the power of 1. All these conditions above compose a linear equation system, which corresponds to a 0-1 matrix. Actually, the linear equation system may have no solution or multiple solutions. Here we remain again that we neglect the cost of solving it. We are only concerned with the number of solutions in total for matching the entire output. For the analysis of ketchup since it becomes a bit different, in linear analysis of ketchup, I mean present linear analysis, l becomes a full linear state, and o becomes the output of last part step. In other words, we can construct a losing root since l is not partially chosen, and o is not digested. Under this analysis, from m to l, we need to design a linear structure, and from l to o, we need to perform a partial linearization. We better reduce those equations in mml so that we can set more equations in o, because the total number of equations is limited by the length of m. Moreover, since the linear root doesn't pass through the last quadratic x box, one equation in o may not bring a gain of 2 to the power of 1. After constructing the linear root, gain analysis will be further required. Therefore, the improved linear analysis of ketchup consists of three parts, linear structure, partial linearization, and gain analysis. First about linear structure, we have stated that we inherit this part from LS-19, where a two-round linear structure with 194 degrees of freedom left is designed by an allocating model. In this video, we just simply introduced the principle of this structure. For more details, please refer to the original paper. To construct a linear structure, we must let the linear root pass through chi, which is the only nonlinear step in ketchup app. It is easily known that chi keeps linear when the input doesn't contain neighboring variables. For example, if only zero yz and two yz are variables, all five bits outputs can keep linear. Under this law, the linear root can easily pass through the first chi step. Then we must deal with linear generation to avoid neighboring variables appearing in the next chi. We need to choose proper constants to prevent generation in chi, and fix column sounds to prevent diffusion in theta. As for rho and pi, these two are B2B permutations and will not generate new variables. This figure shows the two-round linear structure for ketchup 256. The structure for ketchup 224 is just similar. Here, each square represents a 64-bit length. The initial state contains 10 variable lengths, leaving 15 constant lengths. Among those constant lengths, 8 lengths are restricted because they are out of the range of message block, as marked by the diagonals. The linear structure starts with 320 column sound equations to prevent diffusion in the first set-step. Here RC is short for random count, which supports a random space for searching the pre-image. The constants of the first chi step are all fixed by the form of variable 0, variable 0, 1, so that the first chi step will not generate new variables. Similarly, in the second set-step, 128 equations are set to prevent diffusion. Finally, the linear root passes through the second chi step and reaches pi third. It can be proven that the rank of equation matrix is only 446, returning 2 degrees of freedom. Thus, this two-round structure leaves 194 degrees of freedom. Actually, to meet those constants of 0 and 1 in the first chi step, the lengths in the initial state must satisfy specific conditions. However, some conditions only involve restricted parts and cannot be satisfied by setting the message. For this reason, an allocating model is applied to generate a qualified inner state. It should be noted that the complexity of matching such conditions is much smaller than searching the pre-image, so we omit this part of complexity in total content. After linearizing state pi third, we can continue on partial linearization. First, we need to understand the effect of one constant in pi third. Each constant in the 1600-bit inner state can linearize two neighboring bits on its left. Like the example in the figure, the constant of pi third 3 1g can linearize chi third 1 1g and chi third 2 1g. Then, since the torque bit in pi fourth comes from the sum of 11 bits in chi third, and among these bits, only two are neighboring, it is easily known that the partial linearization of a single bit requires at least 10 constants, as shown in the figure. This is indeed the most efficient strategy for a single bit. Yet for multiple bits, this strategy is apparently inefficient because it weighs almost half of those linearized bits in chi third. Actually, those wasted bits can be utilized by simply adding one constant, as shown in the figure. By adding such a constant, we can draw another group of 11 linearized bits and find the richer target in pi fourth. A restriction of this two-bit strategy is the locations of two targets are relatively fixed. For example, if the first bit is pi fourth 10z plus 44, the second bit must be pi fourth 20z plus 43. The numbers here are decided by the offset of real step. Based on this two-bit strategy, we finally adopt a freedom real strategy that makes full use of those linearized bits in chi third. With the chosen starting column, each term we let one column coincide with the column of the previous term, which means we can get two linearized bits by adding only six constants. Yet the restrictions of this strategy becomes even stricter because the locations of all linearized bits are directly determined by the starting column. This table shows a comparison between old strategy and freedom real strategy. Within identically 194 degrees of freedom, the old strategy sets 10 times n constants for n linearized bits, and practically 170 for 17, while the freedom real strategy sets 5 parts 6 times n constants for 2 times n linearized bits, practically 123 for 56. The efficiency gap is quite apparent. An advantage of old strategy is that the location of each linearized bits can be arbitrarily chosen. Such attackers can choose the site that linearly matches the digest with the gain of almost 2 to the power of 1. Yet under freedom real strategy, the location of each linearized bit is relatively fixed, thus there is a gain loss since some bits may not linearly match the digest. The gain may be 2 to the power of 1, 2 to the power of 0.5, or even no gain. These conclusions will be further argued in gain analysis part. Now we expand the principle and effect of freedom real strategy, which is the main technology we use in this paper. Yet our question is, if we spend 173 degrees of freedom in setting constants, how can we get again over 2 to the power of 21? Actually we propose another technology named zero coefficient to reduce cost. By using this technology, we find and construct 11 linear dependent bit pairs, so that those constants only cost 162 degrees of freedom. To expand the principle of zero coefficient, we first record the two-round linear structure. We have constructed a linear route from chi-zero to pi-third, and we are about to set several constants in pi-third to perform partial linearization. One step backwards, each bit in pi-third corresponds to the sum of 11 bits in chi-second, in the form of two columns and one solitary bit. Although we paint chi-second or yellow, actually some of the lengths may be constants or variables depending on the input of step chi. Now let's consider a special case of a bit pair in the same column of chi-second. It is found that if the two solitary bits are both constants, then no matter what the two columns are, the corresponding bits in theta-third become linear dependent because their components are just the same. This zero coefficient pair finally reaches pi-third, and in this case we can set two constants by spending only one degree of freedom. This is the key idea of zero coefficient. Of course, these two constants cannot be set randomly. They must be equal or contrary according to the linear relation. As for the construction of zero coefficient pairs, we need to meet some restrictions to ensure the constant attribute of corresponding bits, and the constant attribute is decided by related bits of the x-box input. To fix the input bits, we even need to trace back to the column sum in chi-first. Notice that setting column sum will not cause degrees of freedom because column sums belong to the B-towel of equation system A times x equal to B. This table shows the details of all 11 zero coefficient B pairs on the starting column, pi-third, four-star Z. From the table we can see that these bit pairs can be constructed without contradictions. So far we have finished a partial linearization part of our improving analysis for low-capacity chart. By spending 162 degrees of freedom, we can linearize 56 bits in pi-fourths. Yet because of the last long linear chi-step, those bits in pi-fourths may not linearly match the digest, so we still need to perform a gain analysis to calculate the expected gain of those linear speeds. In gain analysis part, we adopt a bit-recovering model to select effective equations. Usually, the number of effective equations is larger than the number of degrees of freedom left, so it requires another process of freedom return to make up the lack of freedom. This table displays the details of all 56 linear speeds on the starting column, pi-third, four-star Z. It is concluded that those speeds are distributed in 38 rows, which can be divided into three classes according to the number of linear speeds they contain. Our bit-recovering model also works differently in three classes. In rows containing one bit, the principle is quite simple. For a certain output, if one bit is identical in all possible inputs, it is regarded as a recovered bit and we can set an effective equation on it. The gain of such equation is 2 to the power of one because it compresses the whole space into half size with all qualified cases conserved. When the analysis object is catch up to 234, since it becomes a bit complicated because an uncertain bit may cover three out of four cases, which brings the gain of only 2 to the power of 0.5, as shown in the example. Though it is also an effective equation, we better give priority to those equations that can bring a gain of 2 to the power of one since the space for equation setting is limited. Then in rows containing two bits, it depends on the number of recovered bits. If there are two recovered bits, the gain is of course 2 to the power of two. If there are one recovered bit and one uncertain bit, the gain may be 2 to the power of one or 2 to the power of 0.5. If two bits are both uncertain, we can still set effective equations on the sum of two bits, as shown in the examples. Similarly for catch up to 224, the equation may only cover three out of four cases. Though we have multiple choices in this situation, no single equation can bring again over 2 to the power of 0.5. As for rows containing three bits, this situation is quite complicated. Unfortunately, we only need to analyze a specific case for catch up 256. In this case, pi force 40z will never be recovered, so it is quite similar to the case of rows containing two bits. Though three bits are all uncertain, we can still set effective equations on the sum of two bits, as shown in the example. It is concluded that this kind of rule can always bring a gain of 2 to the power of two. We have explained how to set effective equations on linear space in pi force. The number of effective equations depends on the locations of linear speeds and the digits we are about to match. Yet in some good cases, the number of effective equations may exceed degrees of freedom. Besides making full use of freedom, we can also perform freedom return to fetch more space. The principle of freedom return is quite simple. Recall that in freedom return strategy, each turn we add one column and one solitary constant to linearize two bits. Actually, the solitary constant corresponds to one of the two linear speeds. If we find no effective equations can be set on such kind of bits, we can return the freedom by deleting the equations of setting solitary constants. Since we linearize 56 bits in pi force, 28 of them may return freedom. Among these bits, 6 have been bound in zero coefficient pairs and cannot apply freedom return. This table summarizes the situations of freedom return for remaining 22 bits under starting column pi third 40z. It is concluded that 7 degrees of freedom can be returned in average. Finally, by carefully calculating the probability of each combination, we get the analysis results as below. For 4 and ketchup 256, it is theoretically concluded that 34.5 effective equations can be set in average under starting column pi third 40z. Here z shows a characteristic of rotational symmetry varying from 0 to 63. Yet for certain digits, there must be a best starting column that brings the greatest gain. We also run an experimental test and it is concluded that for about 74.5% of random digits, the total gain can reach 2 to the power of 38. For 4 and ketchup 224, it is theoretically concluded that 38 effective equations can be set in average under starting column pi third 406, which is exactly the best starting column. Yet the total gain is 2 to the power of 32, since some of the equations cannot bring a gain of 2 to the power of 1. The experimental result shows that for about 61.3% of random digits, the total gain can reach 2 to the power of 32. For more details, such as distribution table, gain list and calculating process, please refer to the original paper. So far, we have displayed all the contents we need to expand about our work and now let us make a summary. In this paper, we provide improperly attacks on 4 random ketchup 224 slash 256 through linear analysis. The proofing analysis consists of three parts as listed below. About linear structure, we inherit this part from LS19, which is a two round structure with 194 degrees of freedom left. Our main improvements are reflected in partial linearization part. We adopt a freedom use strategy where multiple bits can be linearized by some common constants. In addition, through the technology of zero coefficient, the cost of setting constants can be further decreased. In final gain analysis, by applying bit recovering and freedom return, it is concluded that the total gain of our improved prima text can reach 2 to the power of 32 and 2 to the power of 38 respectively. That's all about our presentation. Thank you for listening.


In the previous video, you learned how to move from a column chart to a stacked bar chart to visualize data for different OPV doses desegregated by age. But what if we wanted to view the overall total number of OPV doses given broken down by location for the year 2021 instead? We can easily do this with a pie chart. Let's see how to do this in DHIS2. First, open the chart type selector and find the pie chart. As you can see, pie charts are used to represent the split of the parts of a hole. In our example, the parts will be the locations and the hole will be the number of OPV doses given in Animal Region in 2021. Now let's update the chart type to pie. Once we do that, we can see that the layout area changes and now only the series and filter dimensions are available. The category dimension does not appear anymore. You will find the same interface when you create single value engaged charts. This means that these three chart types are ideal for visualizing data based on one primary dimension. For this example, make sure that the organization units are in the series and all other dimensions are in the filter. Then click update. Now we can see a pie chart that allows us to view all doses of any OPV vaccine given in 2021 divided by the different colored sections or slices by organization unit. In this series of videos, you have learned how to use the DHS2 data visualizer app to create different types of charts such as line, column, stacked bar, and pie charts. The decision on which type of chart to select will depend on what kind of data analysis you want to run. You can find helpful tips on which to select in the description of each chart type. If you want to see the data variation over time, you would most likely select a line chart. If you want to compare data across locations, a column chart allows easy visualization and comparison of those data. A stacked bar or stacked column gives us the option to add granularity to our analysis such as by adding desegregations to our data like age or sex. Finally, a pie chart is best to use when you want to compare a total amount divided into parts for one period and one organization unit. To summarize, the data visualizer app in DHS2 allows you to create and edit different types of charts depending on the type of data analysis you want to perform. To switch from one type of chart to another, simply select the chart type from the drop-down menu and adjust the layout and options to achieve the desired visualization.


Hello and welcome to the Grand Line Review, your source for everything one piece, and today it's time to get exceptionally subjective as we take on the topic of devil fruits from the perspective of my personal favorites. And I want to be clear right at the outset here, this is not a list examining the best devil fruits or the best devil fruit users. I already have videos examining both of those topics, links to which will be in the description if you're interested. However this time around we're just looking at what I like most, and that could be for any reason. It could have to do with how strong the ability is, how creatively we've seen it displayed, how aesthetically appealing it is, or any number of other reasons at my sole discretion. I suppose the one thing I will say is that every fruit on this list will be canon, because that's usually how we roll, although I can't deny that the Gord of Goronomi has a certain appeal about it. However, we must not be tempted by non-canon vixens, and with that out of the way, let's begin. Welcome to my top 10 favorite devil fruits in one piece. 10. The Ito Ito No Mi To begin this very subjective list, we have one of the craziest paramusia types we've ever seen in the series that grants the user the ability to conjure and manipulate strings. And every time I describe this fruit I go to myself, and that sounds extremely underwhelming, but that just goes to show how simple concepts can be taken to extreme levels. I love everything about this fruit because not only is it incredibly powerful, but also greatly versatile, as demonstrated by its user in the series, Dol Flamingo, who could seemingly do just about anything with string, whether it be control people like puppets, repair his internal organs, or even somehow create entire string clones of himself. And I must say that there's probably a lot of bias happening here because Dol Flamingo is just flat out one of my favorite characters in the series, and he wields the Ito Ito No Mi with a certain sense of style and flair that I don't think many other users would be able to pull off, plus the fact that the Ito Ito No Mi's awakened powers were demonstrated probably doesn't hurt its ranking here either. So as a result, it is certainly one of my favorite double fruits in the series. Number nine, the Tori Tori No Mi, model Phoenix. All right, next up is a fruit that skyrocketed popularity the very second it was introduced in the series, and it's hard to argue against that because becoming a Phoenix is a pretty dope concept after all. What I personally love most about this fruit though is almost entirely aesthetic, especially as it was presented in the anime with the vibrant blue and yellow flame color scheme. It's a pretty fearsome sight, even if the flames themselves aren't capable of inflicting damage. However, to make up for that, the user of this fruit gains access to one of the most incredible healing abilities within the entirety of One Piece. And while these regenerative powers definitely do have a limit, they are exceptionally appealing to me, plus they can also be used to heal others to a certain extent. Also by virtue of transforming into a big old burb, you can also fly, and I think that flight is a feature that is highly underrated because the world of One Piece is covered almost entirely in seawater, and so flight in herds are pretty godlike power, especially when you're a double fruit user. But even in the real world, the ability to become a phenomenal Phoenix is a pretty desirable thing. I mean, if I was presented with this fruit, I would consume it without a second thought. Number eight, the Hitohitonomi Model Daibutsu. Keeping the mythical Zoentrain going, here we have the ability to transform into a giant Buddha. Now just like the Phoenix fruit, when I first laid eyes upon this power, I was simply stunned. Up until this arc in the series, Zoent fruits were pretty bland explorations of the animal kingdom, which had some great users and some not so great users. However, the power to turn into a golden giant and create devastating shockwaves really made people stand up and take Zoent fruit seriously again. Now the reason why I prefer this fruit to the mythical Phoenix Zoent is purely because of the spectacle. It turns the user into a massive godlike figure and opens up the potential for some pretty fantastic action sequences, some of which we did see at the tail end of Marineford. Although one of the things I want most in this world is to see one of Sengoku's all-out battles, whether it be in a flashback or taking place in modern day, because wielding this fruit, it would be a truly epic affair. So yeah, that's really all there is to it with this one. Another example of immense power, combined with glorious visuals, and that amalgam is always going to hit me pretty damn hard. Number seven, the Hanahana Onomi. Going in the complete opposite direction now, this is a fruit I love almost entirely because of its pure utility. The Hanahana Onomi is without a doubt one of the most useful fruits for a more mundane daily life application. I mean, I don't think there's anybody in this world who would not benefit from being able to generate extra limbs on seemingly any surface, especially hands. In fact, when posed the question of what manga character he would like to be, Ichiro Oda himself stated that he would choose the user of this fruit, Niko Robin, so that he could sprout hands and draw manga 20 times as fast. But it works for pretty much any other profession as well, from physical labor to data entry. And that's just considering the power of hands because we must not forget that this fruit lets you sprout any part of your body, including creepy eyes, and it can be taken to the extent where you can produce full body clones. Plus in the series itself, Robin's use of this fruit is like crafting a masterwork of art with every technique. The detail that goes into thinking about the infinite number of ways that even simple arms can join and form other objects or perhaps even come together and just create bigger arms is just astounding. And I think that one of the greatest shames of the series is that we don't get to see anywhere near enough of this ability. Number six, the Ope Ope Umi. All right, so this fruit is simply ludicrous and I love it. I think that this fruit is incredibly conceptually rich and the idea of creating a room in which the user seems to have control of all matter inside is not just a plain cool idea, but it's also a fantastic restriction to place on an ability that could have very easily become overpowered. And I also very much like that the use of this fruit is tied directly to the drain of stamina and even life force from the user because it makes for some wonderful traumatic stakes. It means that for a user to extract the most potential from the fruit, then they need to be willing to risk everything and have a super solid drive behind their actions, which I find fascinating. I love the idea of a devil fruit that requires sacrifice of power rather than just granting someone something insane because they ate a piece of fruit one time. Plus the idea that a user of this fruit may be able to invoke the perpetual youth ability is endlessly fascinating. It's probably not a fruit I'd be wildly keen to consume myself, but it's definitely one of my favorites in the series because it's always fun to watch and useful in pretty much every conceivable situation. Number 5. The Here Here No Mi. So everything in this world really boils down to two kinds of people, those that eat ice and those that don't. And I happen to be the former, so the Here Here No Mi immediately appeals to someone like me because of the infinite potential for adding ice to my various drinks. But seriously, this fruit is pretty absurdly cool, and I don't think I talk about it anywhere near enough on the channel actually. I mean, even for a logia, the power of this particular fruit is difficult to comprehend, but techniques like Ice Age which can near instantaneously freeze an entire stretch of ocean and have it be cold enough to last for an entire week before melting. And speaking of, another reason why it's quite a fun fruit is because it's one of the very few that can actually negate the natural weaknesses of becoming a devil fruit user by freezing sea water before you fall in and drown. So it's pretty conceptually appealing to me on that basis alone. However, I think what I really love about the fruit is that it's quite a unique logia as it actually turns the user into a tangible element. So when it comes to combat, they can still be hit and shattered, which makes for some pretty great sequences. Also, every use of this fruit in the series is drawn superbly by Yoda. And yeah, just an incredibly big fan of this one. I would consume it without question. Number 4. The Mochi Mochi No Mi. Next up is our first and only special paramecia for this list, and let's be real, quite possibly the only special paramecia that will ever be featured in the series. So the Mochi Mochi No Mi stands out immediately because it's a funky blend of a paramecia and logia, allowing the user not only to generate and control mochi, but also allow them to change their body into it and manipulate it. And the result is essentially a superior version of the gomagomenomi, a fruit that I do love, but not quite enough to put it on this list here today. Although I do have to admit that it's hard not to be a bit biased when talking about the Mochi Mochi No Mi in particular, because being wielded by Charlotte Cardicuri is such a massive reason why I enjoy it so much, particularly in combination with his future site, which allows him to sell the illusion of the fruit being a logia. It's a perfect power for a perfect being, and I was consistently in awe of how Yoda decided to implement its abilities in the series. Pretty amazing stuff, and I guess the only real shame is that we need to wait well over 800 chapters into the series before it makes an appearance. 3. Kandro's Unnamed Devil Fruit Now before I get this again in the comments, a lot of people always try to tell me that Kandro and Kinemon are not devil fruit users, and their techniques are just a form of ninjutsu, like Raizo's powers. Despite the fact that neither Kinemon nor Kandro are a ninja, but that doesn't matter because you're wrong, they are confirmed devil fruit users. And with that out of the way, Kandro's fruit powers like a dream come true. Being able to draw anything and bring it to life is one of those basic human fantasies, and I think what I really like about how it's used in the series is in deliberate combination with an artist who is, you know, less than fantastic at actually drawing. It creates a nice contrast because you'd expect this fruit to be wielded by a more, how shall we say, elegant creator, but as a result it's always fun to see Kandro's poor attempts come to life and interact with the world around them. But really what it comes down to here is that this fruit is just one that I desperately want to use in real life. I feel like the ability to create literally anything is heavily underestimated in the fan base and one of the more unique powers ever showcased in the series. Number two, the Gorogoro Numi. So I don't think I could have ever made a list like this and not include this fruit, and I suppose I should point out that earlier I said that I like the Ope Ope Numi because its ridiculous power came with fantastic balance in terms of its cost. However the Gorogoro Numi abandons that idea entirely and pretty much just turns its user into an instant thunder god. This existence is probably the most broken devil fruit ever created and while something like that would usually annoy me from a narrative standpoint it's just so awe-inspiring to watch in action. Plus I do think that narratively it was put to good use, exploring the idea of false gods and faith during the skypeer arc and of course it's hard to deny the charm of its user, God and El. And of course in the case of which fruit I would personally like to consume it's impossible to ignore this one. The power is just far too great to brush over and its use is always aesthetically appealing in addition. I quite firmly believe that the Gorogoro Numi is the best devil fruit in the series as a whole, even more so than my actual favourite fruit which is still to come. Number one, the Pika Pika Numi. So another disclaimer before we get into this, yes I do think that the Gorogoro Numi is better than this fruit but I'm not going to go into that here because we need to talk about wondrous light. This fruit immediately became my favourite from the moment it was introduced into the series and hasn't ever come close to being knocked off the top by another since. A lot of this has to do with what I do in reality though which is a career very much focused on the field of theatrical lighting whether it be as a designer, programmer or a technician. And so when I consider the thought of being able to create and manipulate light as a devil fruit ability well that's game over. That is more or less the dream for me. And yes it also helps that it's used in the series by Kizaru, a sharp looking tall gent with a stylish suit and a habit of talking exceptionally slowly. To contrast this beady nature of light but rather simply that's all there is to it. I like exploring the possibilities of light and the potential of being able to do so without stupidly expensive equipment is very much a plus and makes the Pika Pika Numi by far my favourite devil fruit. But that pretty much does it for my top 5 favourite devil fruits in the series.

Hello and welcome to the session. In this session we are going to discuss the following question and the question says that A man borrows $4000 at 10% compound interest per annum. Interest payable every 6 months. He pays back $1000 at the end of every 6 months. Calculate the third payment he has to make at the end of 1.5 years in order to clear the entire loan. Now we know that simple interest is equal to P into R into T upon 100 where P is equal to the principal is equal to the rate of interest and T is equal to time. Also amount is equal to principal plus interest. With this key idea let us proceed with the solution. According to the question we have to calculate the third payment that the man has to make at the end of 1.5 years in order to clear the entire loan where the man borrows $4000 at 10% compound interest per annum and he pays back $1000 at the end of every 6 months. So here we are given the principal P is equal to $4000. The time is 1.5 years which is equal to 2 into 3 by 2 half years that is 3 half years. The rate of interest is equal to 10% per annum. So as the time is 3 half years therefore we will calculate the interest for 3 periods of 6 months each. So the principal for the first 6 months will be equal to $4000. As we know simple interest is equal to P into R into T upon 100. Therefore interest for the first 6 months is equal to $4000 into 1 by 2 into 10 upon $100 which will be equal to $200. This implies the amount after first 6 months is equal to $4000 plus $200 which is equal to $4200. Now the loan paid back 6 months is equal to $1000. So we subtract this amount from the amount paid after 6 months. We have $4200 minus $1000 which is equal to $3200. So the principal for in period of 6 months is equal to $3200. Therefore the interest for the second period of 6 months is equal to $3200 into 1 by 2 into 10 upon $100 which will be equal to $160. So the amount to be paid back for the second period of 6 months is equal to $3200 plus $160. That is equal to $3360. Again the loan paid back to 6 months is equal to $1000. So we again subtract this amount from the amount to be paid back after the second period of 6 months. And we will have $3360 minus $1000 which is equal to $2360. So now the principal for the third period of 6 months is equal to $2360 which implies the interest for the third period of 6 months is equal to $2360 into 1 by 2 into 10 upon $100. That is equal to $118. So the amount after third period of 6 months is equal to $2360 plus $118 which is equal to $2478. Therefore the amount he has to pay after 1.5 years to clear his loan is equal to $2478 which is our answer. This completes our session. Hope you enjoyed the session.


Hello and welcome back to the Craft Box. My name is Springton. Today we're on episode 33! 33! The Wizard 101 death walkthrough. We are starting off Mushu today. Let's head on over.

I will be able to tell if you are truly pure of mind You study the rocks and the patterns in the sand and see the manifestation of inner peace and strength Okay, let's hit on onto the dojo. I need to change my dick Just because I was using the wrong one for doing the Mount Olympus So let us read the book of celestial wisdom Thousands of candles can be lit from a single candle and the life of the candle will not be shortened happiness never decreases by being shared Okay, then Let's head back out So, yeah, I'll return to the stitch that we had last time Once I've got all of the gear that I want which will be a while Just because I'm trying to I need to Get be able to do it and it takes I mean I've done three that three four four Including the one that we record that I recorded.

You are on the path to the muda Remember to keep this inner peace within you return to the emperor guard no boru akitame with my best wishes Okay, let's head on up This gives um, that's six hundred and sixty five not three hundred and thirty five Who getting up in the world here guys? Yeah Good day Ah Low pang says that you passed his test. I am now satisfied that you are pure of mind I expect the wizard can easily pass the test of mind But what about for your second test challenge samurai yochimoto yo to a duel and defeat him with honor You wait you by the water dojo Okay Let us hit over to yochimo Okay, let us into the dojo up here Um, nope. We need to talk to him. Okay, don't worry You wish to battle me. I've never faced a wizard.

I mean, we can wait for a vampire though, which is fine, boop, we'll just wait for a vampire powerpup, nope, of course not, let's pass, make it go quicker, I mean he can't kill me.  I say, and he then kills me, that would be funny, I don't think he can kill me, nope, he fizzled anyway, so that's fine, and we killed, cool, so that's that battle done, not too bad, boop, boop, boop, boop, 621, there we go, amazing, impressive, it was an honor to fight you. Of course it was, let's head back, so yeah, that is cool. So yeah, there's a fish training here as well, over there, so if you ever want to do fishing, you can learn some more spells from him, of course you don't have to.  You must be a powerful wizard to pass the test of body, but your training can't help you pass the final test. One's true spirit cannot be disguised, many would rather run than face the judgment of the muda. If you are truly pure of spirit, visit the statue of the muda at the center of the palace grounds and let your true spirit shine. Okay, let's head over to the statue and get a judgment. We need to go to light the front of it just because that's a different bitter. You stand before the statue of the muda and it suddenly speaks. Young wizard, you have done much good in your time. The shining spirit of a true hero is evident in you. You have passed the test of spirit. Difficulties approach you, but do not despair. If you keep the clarity of mind, strength of body, and purity of spirit, you will ultimately triumph. Okay, that was actually a really cool camera angle. Um, yes, let us head back up and we'll see what he wants us to do now.  You passed the test. Most esteemed wizard, you are indeed pure of mind, body, and spirit, who give my lack of faith. I only thought of the safety of his benevolent majesty. Find my superior, the Jade Champion within the emperor's throne room. He will help deliver your message to his imperial majesty. Okay. If you dare, go to the statue of the muda at the center of the palace grounds and let the muda examine your true spirit. Um, this is the first sigil you open up in Mushu and you have to come back here for the last battle. It's kind of funny. The Jade Champion sighs with sadness as you deliver Ambrose's warning about Malastair.  The wizard Malastair already petitioned his benevolent majesty for the spiral key to Dragon Spire. When his imperial majesty refused, that foul wizard cruelly wounded him and fled to the gate to Dragon Spire. I could not stop him. Only his imperial majesty can grant you the spiral key. But his wound has made him gravely ill. I trust you to keep this a secret. We do not wish to frighten our people with fear for the emperor's health. If you wish to use the Dragon Spire spiral key, you must restore his benevolent majesty's health. Please speak with Tan King, the High Monk. He can tell you how. Okay.  He is kind of like the main person who we keep coming back to during Mushu, so he's kind of important. He's over here by the bell. Yeah. So, yeah, let us talk to him and see what he wants us to do first. Thank you for seeking me out. Whether it is your need for the Dragon Spire spiral key or the Muda's invisible hand that brought you here, I am grateful for your help, wizard. We have a large task ahead of us. In order to heal his Imperial Majesty, we must restore his mind, body, and spirit. All is not well, while his Imperial Majesty inwardly fights for purity of spirit, the people fight each other on land. Warlord Katsumori has taken his benevolent majesty's sword and plunged us into war. I've always believed in the tie between the emperor and the land, but never witnessed it until now. If we cure his Imperial Majesty's spirit, we may well end the war. Will you help us? The spirit of a samurai resides in his sword, so we must recover his Imperial Majesty's sword from Warlord Katsumori. Samurai Shogiro Gamma at Hamamatsu Village can tell you more. Okay, we will go into Hamamatsu. First off, we will get the quest for the Oysters, which is Zeke's quest for Mushu. Here's over here. Funnily enough, I've actually never done the Mushu quest fully, so yeah, Blue Oyster Cult. Hey there, young wizard. Those stray cats you found are sure liking their new homes. That's about helping me out with something else. Nice looking Blue Oysters need to be kept in a pure environment. Instead, they've been strewn about the land. Gather them up and bring them back to me and I'll give you a nice reward. Okay, so yeah, let us head over to Hamamatsu and talk to Shoujuri Gamma. This is the first area, and it leads off into two others, I believe. One's a dungeon and one's another area, I think. That's how it works, is it? Yeah, it is. So Crimson Fields is the area that we go into next, and then we go into Tataki Outpost, which is the dungeon at the end, and that's where we get the sword from Katsumori for the Emperor. So yeah, that is cool, and Shoujiro is right here. Blizzard, you arrive at a fateful time. Perhaps with your assistance, the tide of war will turn. We have dishonored his Imperial Majesty. If this village falls, all is lost. Our once peaceful warlord has scattered our forces, and I... Gamma grimaces as he clutches his side. I have no strength. I am ashamed to ask, but can you rescue my missing man-tracked in the outskirts of the village? Return when you have found them all. Okay, so next episode we will continue on with this, or start this bit of the story. We will finish off this area, Hamametsu Village. So yeah, thank you for watching, remember to leave a like and subscribe, and if you're very subscribed, press the wee little bell so you know exactly when I post another video. Go follow us on Twitter, the link's in the description below. And remember Kraft, outside the box.


Hey everyone, welcome back to Retro Tech today. I'm outside in this box. I got a new BVM I'll tell you a little bit more about how I got this one. This one's not in working condition completely And it was donated to me. So let's take a look around this box here. This box was reused for this packing job and It's not the best box. I mean it is double walled which is good But again any time you reuse a box You're risking it. Now the reason see here on this corner But we did Reinforce it with extra good padding inside. So hopefully it held up. It's a 14 inch BVM from what I remember But down here you can see this this obviously got a little moisture or wet or something because it's pretty much disintegrated the outer wall So I don't think it's been dropped but it has taken some It's been moved around and smushed up against things obviously So hopefully it held up The first thing I needed to do was set up my input card because this BVM did not include any kind of video Input card at all. So thankfully I do have extra BKM 129 X's So that was able to get RGB set up and input into the monitor However, you'll notice right away that this tube is quite dim Yes, so no matter what I do with any kind of adjustment on this monitor the colors are not bright at all It's quite dim Especially the red. I'm not really getting much red color at all. I'll show you the Test pattern in here that really lets you see all the colors at once. It's just a standard color bar pattern But notice in between these two blue guns over here. There's supposed to be this red color But there is no red really at all on the screen and that is with even the red settings maxed out as well as The brightness settings turned up as much as possible I'm going to switch now to some other testing and just show you how Really dim the tube is if I go straight to just a colored screen. That's red You'll notice that it just is very very dim The good news is this monitor does work. So a lot of the internals are still good However, if we switch over and look at the menu and into the settings, we'll see that the actual hours on the whole monitor Operation time is over 71,000 hours. So that tells me again that tube is most likely worn out And we need to get a new tube into this So again, the monitor didn't have the tube. It didn't have a bezel So I do have a bonus unboxing here of a bezel for this BVM So that's one thing I did personally buy for it. That means in the next episode We're going to switch out the tube in this monitor with a better tube and then we're also going to Recap the main chassis and we're gonna do some other maintenance and calibrations for it Just to get it back into great shape because I really want to save this one. It's a multi-format monitor So again, look for that episode to come next Thank you guys for watching today, and I'll see you next time with some more retro content
