Hi everyone, Joe for Jasper's casebreaks.com coming at you with 2020-2021 Panini Prison Basketball 2 box Random team break number 15. One spot gets you two teams in a two box break No vet commons ship in the two boxers and their random team breaks. Big thanks to Memo Matthew and Blair for getting on the action Appreciate it and thanks to the teams for being there too. Let's roll it. Let's randomize it Full 12 times six into six one two three four five six seven eight and 12th and final time after 12 we got Blair down to Blair six into six 12 times for the teams one two three and 12th and final time after 12 we got the Hornets nice down to The Orlando Magic. All right, so Blair has most of the teams except for Memo with the spurs Matthew with the thunder Matthew with the Timberwolves nice Memo with the Clippers as well So let's put all this on one screen. Let's sort by column B Are there gonna be any trades? Blair Matthew Nemo. I'm gonna set up my camera right here as well All right, so and you can see RT right there, which means they're random team breaks We're in a positive video when we come back. We're gonna see if there's any trades and then the break stick around All right. Welcome back folks. No Deals done That's all good here in two box Ram team 15 the next two boxes are already in the store if you want to run this back boys and girls Thanks to the three of you for getting into this break. I appreciate it. Remember we wrote RT there So we know it's from the same case Let's rip these open and let's see what happens Rex is asking what kind of trouble Do you think Tiger is in now? Is there has there been more more Tiger Woods news? What's the latest? He was doing 82 that I know but was there any additional news today that would that would constitute jail time Because I've been speeding too. I only get a ticket for it Not jail time. I guess you can get charged with reckless driving, but does that result in drill jail time? I think most cases you you you don't really do jail time for that even a DUI you can Of course that happens you spend spend a night in jail and then But then you lose your license to get a license spend it all along, but I mean Yeah, it's it's kind of rare that moving violations would oh the mellow ball Would result in significant jail time There's a mellow ball right out of the gate for Blair and Charlotte Right. Yeah, the thing is he wasn't caught speeding So that that that could also make things a little tricky. Yeah, but people get in You know, I feel like people get in accidents all the time that doesn't usually result in jail time you know, unless they Unless it's like vehicular manslaughter or something like that, but It was just a solo accident for for him luckily thankfully But a lot of medic. Yeah, but imagine if you got charged with that every time you You were over the speed limit or you were in a single car accident if you were responsible for that No, we already pay for that with our taxis rucks That doesn't result in criminal charges No, I mean unless I mean even if Tiger Woods was found they discovered that he was there's no room power Was impaired some if they were somehow Able to prove that You know, then that that might result in some heavy penalties, but not not jail For that sort of stuff. There's KG hands off the glass KG that goes to Matthew and the timber wolves I Think they yeah, they figured out from the skidmark patterns and the the pace of the car. They figured all that out, but that's tricky To say why that happened You know, so Yeah, those those are hard to turn into to actual like Criminal care. I don't know what's gonna happen with him though. Yeah, I guess supposedly could be your could be arrested or But for speeding I guess and I certified was saying it doesn't go over a certain You know over a certain speed limit, so it might just be a ticket for speeding there's Patrick Williams Red wave for the Bulls Blair is downtown LeBron James Exactly. Yeah, unfortunately, my friends Justin have also got a couple friends who encounter that as well maybe overnight but Nice silver Sadiq Bay out of 125 Dremond Green nice Patrick another Patrick Williams for Blair Tyrese Halliburton And another Sadiq Bay purple ice to 175 the Pistons Nice Tyrese Halliburton for the Kings Blair and rookie signature is a Vernon Kerry Jr. For the Charlotte Hornets going to Blair. Yeah, but as far as Tiger Woods goes, I mean It is really Thankfully since it's just a solo accident It's really just speeding at that point. So it get a speeding ticket. I guess right maybe reckless Reckless driving maybe that's just a bigger a bigger ticket is what Is what Tiger isn't the biggest threat of I mean unless there's medical reports It's it that that say when he went to the hospital that he was impaired or there was There was alcohol or You know something like that in his system or something, but I don't even know if they were testing for that when he got to the hospital So and then as each day goes by You know, I guess it gets harder and harder to prove all that sort of stuff So really even with the speeding data At most if they're even able to legally do that at most Right. Yeah, I guess you could get a reckless reckless endangerment of others on the road If there were any others on the road at that time, but yeah I suppose you can do do that That's a big ticket. I guess So I don't think I don't think he'd ever see the inside of a courtroom His lawyers would either just plea out of it or just pay the extra fine if he even gets to That kind of level Tiger Woods Rex. He's just like us No, no one's pressing charge on time That's up to the LA county sheriff department because that's who handle the thing And I guess the LA county DA I suppose But no one's no one's even no one's even done anything like that yet But Rex Tiger Woods and is in the exact same situation as you and I would be if we were driving 85 in a 40 mile per hour zone and we're involved in a solo crash There's Jordan and Wara And Nico Manion for the Warriors Blair with Golden State Ignacio I have no idea. I would check uh, I would check the secondary market And check completed items and that might give you an idea of what that can go for right now There's obi toppen purple 99 obi toppen for Blair And Peyton pritchard also for Blair nice james weisman Jamal Murray rj barrett anthony davis red wave steve curry Desmond bain skyler maize these like sort of retro cards looking pretty good Blair Blair, well Blair does have the odds that helps As well, but i'm glad there's actually a nice card thing pulled as well A lot of those rookies all those rookies top rookies add up There's norman powell to 49 orange also for Blair Isaac the Coro Derek jones jr. John collins red wave This goes to blare and cleveland Adam what's going on and behind tj warren is zavier mcdaniel sensational signatures for the Celtics It'll be for Blair and tj warren also for Blair that is out of 2.99 there's lebron james base card and be for Blair and my lakers I think the lakers lost kyle kuzma today with a calf strain.

Whatever that means his second year zion rookie silver caches winston and the last little bit here sadeek bay caches stanley rookie hyper kevin love purple ice to 175 And davis bertons at the end. I think all of these are for blare. Yes There you go. Nice break for blare. Thanks everyone for getting in. I appreciate it Another two boxes in the store ladies and gentlemen if you want to get that going I'm joe for jasper's case breaks dot com and i'll see you next time for the next break. Bye. Bye


Hello everybody! First of all, thank you for joining us in the Happy AgroGlobal Forum and thank you for all the TND for our Interest Team. So listening and learning about how you're in Brazil, we are issuing virtual book auditions signed by X509 Certificates. My name is Fernando Marino. I'm a Blockchain Tech Lead at CEPICODE. If you have any question to do in this presentation, please feel free to write in your platform that I will read and answer you. Well, a little bit about me. I am Brazilian, I'm based in Campinas, a city of São Paulo State here in Brazil. I'm a person for innovation, software development and blockchain experts. I have worked with innovation for almost 10 years, including mobile-accessible applications, user experience and close base. In early 2016, I got in touch with the meta-technology and since then I have made development of several concepts here in Brazil and some other pieces as well. Almost all of this development was related to supply chain management solutions and self-sovereign identity. Furthermore, I have published papers and spoken several events in Brazil and abroad. I have an active participation under Hyperledger Community, Hyperledger Brazil, I am one of the Hyperledger chapter members and one of Hyperledger Meetup, São Paulo Coordinator. I have spoken in events of Hyperledger, like Hong Kong Boot Camp in Hyperledger Brazil Boot Camp. Well, talking about a little bit more regarding signing documents to be issued using the VFB credentials protocols. First of all, why does it matter? Why is it interesting to sign these VFB credentials using the X509 certificates? Well, almost places like Brazil and Europe already have digital identity based in the infrastructure of the certificates. So, by the force of the law, several proxies and documents must be signed using these certificates. So, the users have the guarantee of these documents and transactions have the security and the proposition of a real document in the real world. Furthermore, we have to build transitions between the classic systems of digital identity towards the self-sovereign identity. We have to create ways and proxies to allow people to use their identities and what they are currently working in the digital world to use that in the self-sovereign identity ecosystems. This case was developed for a specific case here in Brazil where we were developing a solution for digital prescriptions here in Brazil. And at that time, digital prescriptions must be signed using digital certificates because the Brazilian law said the digital prescription had to be signed by the certificates of a doctor to be issued in the digital manner. So, this project that we developed here in Brazil using the Hyperledger Aries College Agent Python and Hyperledger Indie was a project related to the to create an identity of the doctor and the identity of the patient and to connect them to the doctor. The doctor here has the role of an issuer and he is related to issue the credit to a prescription in the format of a verbal credential. But the patient used this credential, for example, in a in a in a commerce of a pharmacy. This credential must be signed for a digital certificate, a digital certificate that has its roots of ICPBR, the Brazilian Roots Certificate for Digital Identity here. So, we developed a methodology to sign this credential, this verbal credential, using an intermediator agent and just using the agent to agent protocol to send and receives the documents that must be signed. Now, let's explain a little bit more about this methodology in the process that we developed here. First of all, this phone here represents the wallet of the doctor. The doctor sends the documents to be signed to Aries College Agent Python issuer. Okay, that's the Aries of the doctor. Just to inform you, this solution was based is called as a cloud-based solution, which means that the Aries of the doctor is in the cloud. Okay, so the doctor using its application sends the document to be signed for its Aries College Agent Python. These Aries, the application of these Aries doesn't have a web application to select a certificate and sign in the document that will be issued as a credential. So, to sign this credential, these Aries have to send using the GDCOM this document for another Aries, an intermediator Aries. These intermediator Aries have the web application and backend application, which has the process to sign the document that will be issued. Okay, so the Aries College Agent Python off the issuer sends the document's body to be signed using the basic message. This message will be received by the Aries College Agent Python off the intermediator. The intermediator then will trigger an event for its web hook. So, we developed an app that is listening to the events of the Aries College Agent Python off the intermediator. The web hook intermediator forwards the document for the microservices that we developed here called the DSBX509, which means digital signature based off 509 cert files. So, then the web hook will send this message that must be signed for these microservices. And these microservices will storage this document, this body of this document that has to be signed. Okay, that is the schema that we adopted here in Solitia. Okay. Oh, that was the patient's motivation. Sorry, my bad. This was the first patient. After that, the doctor have to access the web application off the Asian intermediator and authenticate itself to obtain the list of the documents that they have to be signed for him. So, the doctor authenticated itself with this agent. This authentication occurs by a QR code that actually has a public invitation by the agent of the intermediator. Okay. If the doctor is already connected with the agent of the intermediator, it's interesting thing, technical thing to talk here. We are not using the outcome, the outbound, we are not using the outbound connection between among these agents. So, we are controlling here, the application of the doctor has internal database and it's known if he's already has an active connection with the public invitation by looking for the public DID of this invitation. Okay. So, the application of the doctor read this public invitation in QR code form. And if it has a connection, an active connection, it will lose this connection to authenticate itself and to identify the doctor, the agent of the doctor and then get the document for this doctor, not for another person. So, when he is looking for the microservices that is storage in the documents that have to be signed, please give him back the documents of this doctor. And then the microservices retrieves these documents of these specific doctors and we'll present this and then we'll present it in form of a list. Okay. Okay. Since the application gets back the list of digital documents to be signed, it will present these documents for the doctor and the doctor will select the document that he'd like to be signed in and then they will, we are using a plugin here from an organization here from Brazil. We are using a plugin to select the X509 certificate and then sign the body of the document. This document is a JSON. This document is the date, is the JSON of the content of a verbal credential. Okay. So, this document has a schema. This schema is the schema that was defined in Hyperledger engine to create this verbal credential. Okay. This document is signed using the 509 certificate and then the application will post this signed document one more time for the microservices and the microservices will then integrate itself with the Aries, send a post for Aries using again the basic message to give it back to the Aries from the issuer. The Aries from the issuer will receive this signed document and will send this event for the WebHook. The WebHook was here of the issuer, was developed to listen to this event and then send an offer for the patient that was received this prescription was created for. So, the WebHook will send an offer for the holder, the patient. The Aries from the patient will receive this credential, this offer, and will notify the holder using the push notification services. It's interesting to see here that these POC that's developed here was entirely developed using just the Aries Code Agent Python, okay? For intermediation, issuance, and the holder. We used one instance for each agent here. Now we can use the functionality of the multi-tenancy of Aries, but when we developed the solution, it was not ready. The version 0.6 of the Aries was not ready yet. Now it is ready. Okay, so since the patient received this notification, he can accept the issuance of this credential, and then the credential will be issued, and this credential will have one attribute more, one attribute related to the digital signature that was used for the verbal accreditation. Okay, how is the outcome that we got from this POC? Well, first of all, we have verbal accreditation that its content was signed by one certificate that is in compliance of our regulation. Another outcome that we have is a document that can be used and checked in only machine-to-machine approach, instead of a signed PDF that usually needs a human verification. That's interesting when we are talking about the digital prescription, because in the pandemic situation here in Brazil, we had remote consult with the doctors and patients, but the doctors are still having to issue prescriptions in a paper, or in a PDF that usually here is not used for integrated services, and to allow that e-commerce regarding pharmacists can use it and check it in an automatically way. When are you using this? Both technology, the self-submarination, I mean the verbal credentials and the digital certificates, we're allowing to the e-commerce of controlled drugs here in Brazil, because when we are talking about some medicines, controlled medicines, it's not easy to sell it in an online way, because you have a regulation that just allows you to use it to buy it. Furthermore, we develop a methodology that can be used to sign any kind of document, not just a prescription, but you can sign a prosecution and other documents that must be signed at this time with the certificates by the force of the law, because when the word is trying the self-submarinated concept, they will still, they still using the other GITAL identity solutions, so it's very important for us to create a self-submarinated solution to build these transitions solutions, to guarantee the users that they are still using the solution that they have, but we are decentralizing the identity, the storage, and managing the handling of the identity of people. So that was the case that I have to show you, the proxies as well, that was the proxies that we used to create a verbal credential signed by digital certificates here in Brazil, and I'm opening for questions. I will stop to share my screen right now and see the question and answers from you.


I was offered a Snickers bar for Halloween, but had to turn it down, because currently, due to all the craziness these days, I already snicker. Way too much. My eyes. Whatever do you mean? I mean, honestly, like, did you see when the White House tried to take credit for an automatic social security cola increase? Maybe it's just not your game, Mike. I know. Let's have a spelling contest. An increase that kicks in automatically when inflation goes up? Special Agent Utah. This is not some job flipping burgers at the local drive-in. Thereby basically bragging about how they made inflation go up? Yes, the surfboard bothers me. Yes, your approach to this whole goddamn case bothers me. Yes, you bother me. I mean, honestly, how could anybody not have a Snicker problem these days? I swear. Tell me something.   It's like the White House trying to take credit for the social security cola increase is like driving a spear through some dude's gut and then trying to take credit for the stomach tissue as it attempts to sew back together. It's like Sun Tzu wrote in the Art of War, never give up, never surrender. It's ridiculous. That was Tim Allen in Galaxy Quest. Whatever, dude. Say, hey, look, look at the way I got that dude's stomach tissue to try to mend that gaping gut gash I put in his stomach. Honestly, I'm trying to cut back on both sugar and snickering and reducing the Snicker bar consumption contributes to both goals. There's a difference between us. You think the people of this country exist to provide you with position? I think your position exists to provide those people with freedom.


Hello, I'm Detective Stuart from the Sheboygan Police Department. Here are some tips to avoid being the victim of a scam. A legitimate business will not require you to send payment by purchasing gift cards and then providing the gift card numbers to them over the phone. Use common sense. If it sounds too good to be true, it probably is. If you know someone who is vulnerable to a scam, talk to them and ask them to talk to you prior to sending anyone money. For more information on scams, stop at the Sheboygan Police Department and pick up a pamphlet or research scams online.


وأقول في القرآن ما جاءت به آياته فهو الكاريم المنزال وأقول قال الله جل جلاله والمصطف الهدي ولا أتأوله الحمد لله رب العالمين له الحمد الحسن والثناء الجميل واشدوا لا إله إلا الله وحده لا شريك له يقول الحق وهو يهدي السبيل واشدوا أن محمد العبد هو رسوله صلى الله عليه وعليه وعاله وأصحابه والتابعين لهم بحسان إلى يوم الدين أما بعد This is our fourth episode وإن شاء الله تعالى in this episode I want to speak about those who say when they commit sins إن الله غفور الرحيم الله سبحانه وتعالى is forgiving الله تعالى is very merciful and how that falls under الأمن من مكل الله to feel safe and secure from the plan and the punishment of Allah سبحانه وتعالى We say to that person You are right الله is غفور الرحيم In that statement of yours You are right الله سبحانه وتعالى is غفور الرحيم but Allah is also He is also severe in his punishment Why have you chosen one and abandoned the other Why have you relied on only one and not the other The believer what he is known for is that he takes all of the نصوص together He takes all of the evidences together He doesn't partially take some and abandon others The people who did that are deviated groups in Islam The مرجع They took the ayats of hope And they abandoned the ayats of fear They are a deviated group We started from a man by the name of Al-Wasim Al-Ata And Amr ibn Ubaid and their likes And then the khawarij came And they took verses which were Severe in punishment And they refer to those verses That talk about the punishment of Allah سبحانه وتعالى And they relied on that And they abandoned the verses of hope And then the Sufiyah came And they took the verses Which took about love And they abandoned the verses of hope And the verses of punishment And أهل السنة والجماعة When they saw that They remembered and reminded others That the Qur'an consists of those three Fear, Hope and Love And they took it all together They didn't choose some and abandoned some The first group to go Evil in that was the khawarij And then the Murjiah followed And then the Sufiyah followed أهل السنة والجماعة They worship Allah upon fear Hope and love So we say to that person إن الله غفور الرحيم You're right Allah is forgiving And Allah is very merciful سبحانه وتعالى But he's also severe in his punishment Allah سبحانه وتعالى He says نبع عبادي أني أنا الغفور الرحيم وأن عذابي هو العذاب الأليم Allah says نبع In form عبادي my slaves أني أنا الغفور الرحيم And I am the forgiving one وأن عذابي هو العذاب الأليم And that my punishment And my hellfire And my hellfire Is very severe الله تباركه تعالى his punishment And his عذاب is very severe And his forgiving is very vast You need to combine between that too Also Allah سبحانه وتعالى He says إعلاموا أن الله شديد العقاب وأن الله غفور الرحيم Allah says إعلاموا No أن الله شديد العقاب And that Allah is severe in his punishment And that Allah is one that forgives And that one that is very merciful So Allah is شديد العقاب severe in his punishment And he is Allah سبحانه وتعالى He is غفور الرحيم One that is merciful One who is forgiving سبحانه وتعالى Allah سبحانه وتعالى He also says in another verse وَالَّذِي جَعْ لَكُمْ خَلَا إِفَا الْأَرْضِ وَرَفَعْ بَعْضَكُمْ فَوْقَ بَعْضِي دَرَجَاتِ لِيَبَلُوَكُمْ فِي مَا آتَاكُمْ إن ربك سريع العقاب وإنه لغفور الرحيم الله تباركه تعالى He says He is Allah تعالى Who made you خَلَا إِفَا الْأَرْضِ The successes of this world Allah made us that And He also placed some of us over one another وَرَفَعْ بَعْضَكُمْ فَوْقَ بَعْضِي دَرَجَاتِ Allah gave some of us levels over others لِيَبَلُوَكُمْ So Allah can test you سبحانه وتعالى في مَا آتَاكُمْ In that which He gave you Allah is testing the one that's on top What is He going to do with that? Is He going to abuse His power? And the one that is low Is He going to be patient and indoor? After that Allah تعالى He says إنَّ اللَّهَ سَرِيْعُ الْرِقَابِ Verily Allah تعالى What? إنَّ رَبَّكَ سَرِيْعُ الْرِقَابِ وَإِنَّهُ لَغَفُورُ الرَّحِيمَ Allah combined between the two Verily your Lord Allah سبحانه وتعالى Is fast in His punishment And He's verily one that is forgiving Saying Allah is forgiving إنَّ اللَّهَ غَفُورُ الرَّحِيمَ Jumping with that When you're not doing any righteous actions And you're not repenting Then you are falsely attributing To the verse A Meaning that it doesn't have You're saying Allah is going to have mercy And forgive me for my sins When you're still consistent upon it Allah mentioned in the Quran That He forgives the ones who repent And the ones who come with righteous action Allah says وَإِنِّي لَغَفَّارُ لِمَنْتَابَ وَأَمَنَ وَعَمِلَ صَالِحًا تُمَّهْتَدًا Allah says I am one who forgives But I forgive into who لِمَنْتَابَ the one who repents Rectifies himself وَأَمَنَا and believes وَعَمِلَ صَالِحًا and comes with righteous action تُمَّهْتَدًا and then becomes guided Where is the one that Allah forgives Allah is telling you here سبحانه وتعالى So to believe That Allah is going to forgive me سبحانه وتعالى Whilst you're consistent upon sins And then you jump The gun by saying إن الله غفور الرحيم You are giving the ayah A meaning A تفسير That it doesn't have You're saying Allah is going to forgive me Whilst I am not repenting Whilst I am not coming with righteous action Whilst And that goes against What The Quran mentions And also What The Ahadith of the Prophet صلى الله عليه وسلم I mentioned Allah says وَإِنِّي لَغَفَارٌ لِمَنْتَابَ وَأَمَنَا وَعَمِلَ صَالِحًا ثُمَّهْتَدًا The great Shafi' in Skala اسماعيل ابن مقرئ He said a few lines of poetry Are very powerful Regarding those who say Allah is forgiving سبحانه وتعالى Allah is merciful While committing sins He said تقول مع العسيان ربي غافر Whilst you're committing the sin You say الله سبحانه وتعالى is forgiving We say صدقت ولكن غافر بالمشيعة He said You've told the truth Allah is forgiving But with his Mashi'a He forgives who he wants وربك رزاق كما هو غافر Your Lord الله سبحانه وتعالى Is a Razaq He is one who provides He gives To his creation And he nurtures And cultivates them As he is also one who forgives الله has a quality of being Razaq And has a characteristics of his Which means he gives To his creation's risk He is also غافر يعني he is forgiving سبحانه وتعالى فلم لا تصدق فيهما بالسوية A powerful point here Which is Why do you not then Believe in both of them In the same way What does he mean by that He means الله سبحانه وتعالى Is the one who provides For you Is he not And Allah is the one Who forgives you Why is it That you Whenever you're committing a sin And you're doing crimes And you're not repenting You're not repenting You jump the gun And say Allah is غافر رحم You say In Allah غافر رحم Whereas When you are Not working And you haven't got a job You don't say Allah is Razaq He provides He's going to give me my provision And you sit back And do nothing You don't say that You work You exert effort And hard work And you say Allah is Razaq But I also need to work So the same way is The name غافر الله تعالى Is forgiving But you still have to repent You still have to come In righteous action فكيف ترجل عفو من غير توبة So he goes How is it That you hope For forgiveness Without repenting ولست ترجل إلا بحيلة But you don't hope To be provided Without exerting the effort على أنه بالرزق كفى لنفسه And then he points out Something again important He says الله سبحانه وتعالى Made a promise That he's going to Make sure That he provides for everyone Allah mentioned that In the Quran He says There is no individual On this earth Except that his Provision is upon Allah So Allah He promised that He's going to provide for everybody ولم يتكفى للأنامي بجنة But he didn't promise Everybody جنة The jannah he gives it to Whoever he wills ويغفر ما ديون دالي كلي من يشاعب If it gives whoever he wishes He takes to jannah Whoever he wishes Allah mentioned In the Quran فمنهم شقي وسعيد There are those who are noble And they're going to enter جنة And then those criminals So they're going to go to the Hellfire So jannah is not promised For everybody وما زلت تسعب اللذي قد كلفته وتهمير ما كلفته من وظيفتي But You strive to the one That you were promised That you were going to be given And you abandon The one that you're not sure If you're going to get it Forgiveness is not something You're sure Whether you're going to get it But رزق is one that you are Definitely going to be given Based on the ayah ومامي دابة إلا على الله رزقوها Allah is going to provide for you سبحانه وتعالى Powerful points will lie It's a contradiction On behalf of that person Who's running around looking for provision Working hard Exerting the effort Getting a job Trying to maintain that job And get a good income from it In order to provide for himself And his family But when he does a sin He goes إن الله غفور الرحيم But if you believe Allah is غفور الرحيم Which he is سبحانه وتعالى And you should believe that he is But he's also رزق He's one that gives And provides for his creation Why don't you sit back And relax And not work You'll be like No, but I need to work And I need to Rely on Allah as well We'll say the same Is when it comes to forgiving You have to also work You also have to repent You also have to do righteous action And then hope for Allah To forgive you سبحانه وتعالى If you sit back Brothers and sisters And you relax And you hope to be forgiven You're trying to achieve success Without taking its path عبد الله مبارك He said in a line of poetry ترجو النجاة ولم تسلك مسالكها إن السفينة لا تجري على اليبسي You are hoping to receive success You're wishing to get success But you're not taking its path The path to forgiveness Which is success Has a means Repentance Righteous actions Looking for guidance Those are the means Of gaining the forgiveness of Allah So you're hoping to get that But you're not taking its path Really The boat does not Sail on dry land No, it doesn't The boat If you want to go to a destination You can't say Oh Allah I want to try this route And I want to drag the boat On the earth You're not going to move it far You're not going to get far There you see So what do you have to do If you want it Even if the destination is long You still have to take the sea Or the ocean You still have to take the sea Or the ocean It needs water Okay The person Who says Allah is غفور الرحيم And does not repent Just says it إن الله غفور الرحيم بدون طوبة Without any repentance Is like the example of this Is كمررجا ولدن Is like the one Who is hoping to have a child And he wants to have a child وما نكح And never got married وكمررجا حصادا وما زلا And it's like the one Who's hoping For his vegetations to come out He wants to harvest The earth And his garden But really hasn't planted the seeds You didn't plant the seeds When others were doing it And you're hoping that When they pick their crops You could do the same with them That's the same as the one Who says إن الله غفور الرحيم Without repentance And righteous action He's like كمررجا ولدن وما نكح وكمررجا حصادا وما زلا A person wants to have a child Without getting married How you can have a child Without being married وكمررجا حصادا وما زلا And how can you hope For crops And vegetations And fruits When you haven't planted the seeds You got a garden You want it You can't Put something in The exact effort That is an important message I want to send to you all Insha'Allah I am going to stop there for now Anything which I have said That was wrong or incorrect Is from me and Shaytan And Allah and his message Are both free from it سبحانك الله وبحمده أشهد والله إله إلا الله أستغفر وكوا وأتوب إلي السلام عليكم ورحمة الله

I'm John Goodell here in Orange County near the tsunami-ready community of Seal Beach. This week, in recognition of September as National Preparedness Month, Cal OES has reminded all Californians to take simple steps now to prepare for emergencies in their homes, businesses, and communities. Bro, it's an earthquake. Disasters can strike at any time without warning. Build an emergency kit, have a family plan, and listen to local authorities if ordered to evacuate. Cal OES, in partnership with local state and federal agencies, will open a local assistance center to aid fork fire survivors in Madera County. The LAC will be open one day only on October 1st from 9 to 4 p.m. at North Fork Elementary. Replace lost or destroyed vital documents and get connected with support services. And finally, California deployed a team of emergency management and mass care specialists to Florida to aid response to Hurricane Ian.

So the midterms are quickly approaching and the Republican Party is in bad shape and they know they're in bad shape and they know why They're in bad shape. So at the start of this year, let me just remind you where we were It seemed as if a bloodbath was inevitable and that Democrats would be wiped out but now it seems more likely that Democrats actually have a chance of holding on to the Senate and Even though it's more unlikely they could hold on to the House although we'll have to wait and see But let me just show you a couple of headlines that show you how the momentum has shifted in the Democratic Party's favor This is from the Hill GOP looks for Senate campaign reset heading toward November I wonder why you would want to reset if you're doing so well Well, of course, it's because they're not doing well also from the Hill Cook Political Report moves five house races toward Democrats So now Republicans are the ones who are seeing an iceberg dead ahead and they're scrambling to try to find some way to save face And it's not going very well I just talked about last week how they're trying to Block Biden's student debt relief proposal because apparently that's gonna be really popular But like why is it that the momentum has palpably shifted in the Democratic Party's direction? Well, I think a large portion of that can be attributed to Roe v. Wade being overturned and constant headlines like this This is from the Washington Post. They lost pregnancies for unclear reasons Then they were prosecuted experts say drug use is rarely the cause of miscarriage or stillbirth But prosecution of women who test positive for drugs still happens and could get more common in the wake of the Dobbs decision So this is why so many Americans are turned off by the GOP Because they've made women the target of their theocratic witch hunt and what they've accomplished with Roe v. Wade being overturned Is something that they fought for for decades and So immediately after Roe v. Wade was overturned. Well, they broadcasted their intent to enact a total abortion ban So that certainly isn't gonna help them But additionally, it's not just abortion like they've been going out of their way to broadcast how extreme they are They voted against a contraception overwhelmingly in the house They voted against marriage equality overwhelmingly in the house and they keep telling the American people that they're against what they want gay marriage Abortion contraception student that relief and at some point in time. It's gonna hurt them Like the GOP has never really been concerned about what the public wants, but on these issues They're very salient to Americans So you can't just 100% of the time be against what Americans want and expect it to not hurt you at some point now Also to be fair the Democratic Party has been delivering not massively But they've done certain things that will help the American people Biden cancelling 10 to $20,000 worth of student That's gonna help them especially with young people then passing the inflation reduction act wasn't necessarily a game-changer when it came to climate change But they did do some good things Extending subsidies with the Affordable Care Act on top of that enacting a 15% minimum corporate tax rate So there's things in there that the American people like so when you have one party the Democratic Party at least Trying to make it seem as if they're concerned with what the American people wants at least temporarily before the election and Another party just face planting seemingly doing everything that they can to piss off the majority of Americans Well, it's no wonder why their electoral prospects has now changed but I really want to focus on Abortion because that is what really is hurting them again. You know, this is a nuanced thing There's a number of reasons why they're currently hurting But certainly it's because of abortion and they are now learning that they're forced brother positions This is hurting them Substantially so so it started with Kansas Which gave them their first wake-up call when this deep red state voted to protect? Abortion rights that were already enshrined in their state's Constitution But now knowing that Republicans will lose at the ballot when it comes to this issue Forced brothers in Michigan are trying to block an initiative that would enshrine abortion rights in their state's Constitution Now the question is why are they doing this? We know why it's because they're forced brothers and they don't believe that women should be able to control their own bodies But that's not the argument that they're making. They're not trying to block this On substantive grounds. They're not trying to argue like against abortion They're simply trying to block this Due to a technicality. I kid you not So as mark joseph stern points out here when republicans claim they want to return abortion to the people Please remember that michigan republicans are trying to stop the people from voting on abortion Because of a few meaningless typos and as you can see here, they're trying to block this initiative that received more than 750,000 signatures because of typing errors typing errors really That's a reason to subvert democracy not allow your voters to have a say Well, that's disgusting in and of itself But this is an admission not an explicit one But it is an admission nonetheless because they're not saying we're gonna block this because You know women shouldn't have the right to control their own bodies or we really believe strongly that life begins at conception They're blocking this because of typos In other words, they know They would lose on the substance which is why they have to fabricate bullshit reasons To block this initiative because in the event this were on the ballot It would pass most republicans by now know this which is why a number of GOP candidates have walked back They're previously extremist forced brother positions as huffpost reports Some republicans really don't want you to know about their positions on abortion One of them is black masters the GOP nominee for u.s senate in arizona until recently his campaign website promoted him as a 100 pro-life candidate and pledged support for a federal personhood law Ideally a constitutional amendment that recognizes that unborn babies are human beings that may not be killed Then last week correspondence from NBC news learned the website's language had changed the reference to masters as a 100 pro-life candidate Gone mentioned of the personhood law That's vanished too Instead the website now touts his opposition to late term abortion and support for the height amendment Which prohibits the use of taxpayer funds to finance abortion So hang on a second because this is a gigantic shift He went from supporting a constitutional amendment to ban abortion to now saying well I'm going to fight against late term abortions and I support the height amendment What happened to this I'm 100 pro-life and life begins at conception late term abortions height amendment that is a massive massive change and this is Hilarious now you probably already heard about that story because black masters is probably the most High-profile arguably candidate Who's an extremist forced birther and he's extreme in a lot of other areas? But this story went viral, but he's not alone There's other republicans who are running away from their previously extreme forced birther positions Huffposts continues something similar has happened in michigan Where republican state senator tom barrett is running for a u.s. House seat barrett's website once touted his opposition to abortion Under any circumstances and his promise that I will always work to protect life from conception as recently as this past May He told melissa non-burke of the detroit news He opposed allowing abortions in cases of rape or incest But at some point the abortion section vanished from barrett's website Oh curious when burke and her colleague craig mauger asked barrett for an explanation He said he wasn't aware of the change But assumed it was a routine update to focus on issues more important to voters Okay, definitely believable It was a strange explanation given that two polls from the previous week Found abortion to be the number one issue in michigan right now By monday the website had another update with new language on abortion and echoing the new masters website It focused on barrett's opposition to late term abortion the website for barbara kirkemeyer Republican candidate for a u.s. House seat in colorado used to include language on the sanctity of life That language is not there anymore the washington post has the details and the website for mark ron shetty GOP candidate for governor in new mexico who in a previous campaign said that life should be protected at all stages Now promises a middle ground approach that focuses on prohibiting late term abortion I love this story so much. Do you understand what's happening? They're all back peddling walking back their extremist rhetoric Right after roe v. Wade was overturned. They were all emboldened and they couldn't wait to broadcast to all of us That the second day retake power they want to enact a federal ban on abortion But guess what the american people heard you and now they're saying okay. Well No, thank you. We're gonna go ahead and opt for the party. Who's not going to enact a federal ban on abortions So regardless if they want to publicly admit this or not They now know how unpopular their position is even if they may deny that And they know that it's hurting them Actively so and this is so good because as they try to run away Every single opponent to these republicans each democrat running running against these forest burthers Needs to remind them of what they said. Oh, what's that you want to stop late term abortions? But I remember you saying blake masters that um, you wanted a constitutional amendment to ban all abortions Whatever happened to that. So then he'll be backed into a corner.  He's walking back. Who's less extreme now in his rhetoric So this is a really good position to be and democrats are in a position Where they can play offense and republicans are forced to play defense Democrats should use this to their advantage And keep pushing this issue because I hope more republicans walk away from this because every time they do We are going to call them out For their uh, not only hypocrisy, but their cowardice. Look you claim to be a forced birther you claimed life began At conception, but it changed all of a sudden this deeply held moral belief changed because of some public opinion polls Well, that makes you look like a fraud and we're going to expose you now. So thank you for helping us


My name is Dr Stephanie Virger. I'm a senior lecturer at the University of Northumbria in Newcastle-upon Tyne in the United Kingdom. Pretty soon I'll introduce you to my PhD student, Gina Abdelhal, who is a student in my lab working with another student and she's the first author of the review published in 2020, which is entitled Reversing Oncogenic Transformation with Iron Collation. And as I say, I'll introduce Gina pretty soon who will talk to you about her research area, what she's found, her key findings in the review we hope to achieve in the lab in the future. So my work, to take a little bit step back and talk about where I'm coming from, supports the primary goal of anti-cancer drugs and so by that I mean to selectively interact with molecules essential for cancer cell survival. In that vein, I have extensive background in cancer drug discovery. I have extensive experience in preclinical evaluation of novel therapeutics with DNA repair inhibitors. And lots of my research has been looking at those drugs as potential to be used with combination with current cancer therapies or a standalone therapies in their own right. I've supported anti-cancer drug discovery projects in many different ways, for example, by investigating their interactive effects of proteins involved in sensing and responding to DNA damage, by developing and validating pharmacodynamic biomarkers, agents progressing to clinical trials, and also by evaluating enzyme inhibitors designed to exploit underlying molecular defects in a range of human cancers. But overall, the key focus of my research has always been proof of principal testing of preclinical lead compounds. And as I say, this will lead into discussing both the review and the work that Gina is currently doing. The work that I've done evaluating agents progressing to clinical trials and in helping to develop biomarkers has contributed towards, for example, the successful introduction of poly-ADP ribose polymerase, or let's call them PARP inhibitors, into patients. And most recently in 2019, Rucaparib, which is a first class PARP inhibitor that I was involved in the in vitro testing of, was announced by Clovis Oncology to be made available for women. So the major research achievements that I've had, first of all, as a young PhD student, was to show the identification of a competition as well as a cooperation between two particular DNA repair enzymes. So poly-ADP ribose polymerase that I've already introduced, and another enzyme called DNA-dependent protein kinase. And what this work did was further the understanding that we see when we have overlapping and competing pathways in cancer cell signalling. And in particular, it highlighted the potential for combination therapies that can be used to treat cancer. I was also involved in demonstrating for the first time that enzyme PARP1 has a role in DNA double-strand break repair. And I have to admit this data was received with a lot of apprehension at first, and made a huge amount of evidence that PARP was mainly only involved in basic decision repair. This observation was recognised widely as needing further investigation. And many studies did actually swiftly build on that work that I had done. And from there, this led to the important identification of a backup role for PARP in homologous recombinational repair. And showing this homologous recombinational repair defective tumours were far more sensitive to PARP inhibitors than those that were not defective. And thus the role for stand-alone therapy with PARP inhibitors, particularly in these bracket-efficient breast and ovarian tumours, was born. One of the other things that I've been involved in demonstrating a very controversial role for PARP1 and another enzyme, a taxiotel angiectasia mutated ATM, the way in which they mediate cell survival by a nuclear factor capybi, and not through the widely purported DNA repair pathways that everybody was publishing on. And the reason I mention that is because, although it was met with great scepticism at the time, and it's only recently become a field of study and an approach to mediate cancer therapy, why the reason that work was so important was that it highlighted the need for a molecular understanding of aberrant singling pathways in cancer in order for targeted cancer therapy to work. So, where am I now? Well, currently I have a number of collaborations with synthetic chemists, both at Nathumbria University and Newcastle University. And here at Nathumbria University, we're exploring the underlying biological mechanisms of novel therapeutics, both alone and in combination with some of those repair inhibitors that I've mentioned. And this portfolio of research that I have includes exploring the LAT1 transporter as a novel mode of entry for ion colatus to enable selective targeting of those tumours that actually overexpress this transporter. And the data that we're going to be talking about today is being generated by three PhD students, two of whom are currently in the lab, and one of those students is Gina Abdelal, who will come on and speak to you further about this in a moment. And Gina and my other PhD student, Andrew Carter, are furthering the work of a chemistry PhD student, but we're trained up in some of the key techniques needed to accrue data quickly. So, just to give a very brief overview of where we were at at the point of the review being published before Gina takes over our initial discovery of these hydroxypyridinone-based colatus, which are LAT1 substrates. We were able to demonstrate their cytotoxic activity and selectivity for cancer cells over healthy cells in melanoma. So the original model was in melanoma. Ongoing preliminary work by myself and Gina has identified activity against a variety of other cancerous cell lines, including prostate cancer. And some of that preliminary data within our group is showing that a more aggressive PC3 cell line is more sensitive than a less aggressive DU145 cell line. So demonstrating that these compounds can have profound effects on cell survival and death. Being a little bit more specific then, we have published on melanoma and shown that the lead compound we have, SK4, has the ability to, one, promote increased generation of reactive oxygen species. Two, activate both intrinsic and extrinsic apoptosis. And finally, they're also able to induce perturbations in cell cycle and induce growth arrest. So what I'm going to do now is pause here and change author across to Gina to talk a little bit more in detail. I'm Gina Abdel, and I'm a third year PhD student at Dr Berger's lab at Northumbria University in the UK. I will give a brief overview of the review that we have published together and some of the background behind it. So iron colladers are a set of cancer drugs which strip cells of their iron content, with some also inducing reactive oxygen species. And the rationale behind their use is cancer therapy is cancer cells usually have a higher level of iron compared to normal cells. Usually because cancers upregulate their iron import proteins such as transferrin and downregulate their iron export proteins. And this accumulation of iron is what helps support cancer cell growth and metabolism as many enzymes in the cells are iron dependent. DNA synthesis, for example, is reliant on ribonucleotide reductase, which produces DNTPs. And this enzyme uses iron as a cofactor, and this is the rate limiting step of DNA synthesis. Therefore, iron can be a major driver of cell proliferation and different tumor types may accumulate iron or be addicted to iron. Iron colladers are an effective agent against many tumor types because it's a universal trait, and that makes them a tumor agnostic therapy, even with P53 mutant cancers. Our review entitled Reversing oncogenic transformation with iron collation investigated the mechanistic side of iron colladers and related them to the hallmarks of cancer. Iron colladers have been shown to reverse some of the hallmarks of cancer through a cell signalling protein called NDRG1. Essentially, when cells are treated with iron colladers in vitro, NDRG1 is upregulated through which many oncogenic signalling pathways are inhibited, such as WIMP, PI3K and EGFR signalling. However, NDRG1's role as a tumor suppressor is still controversial. As some studies suggest more of an oncogenic sort of role, in some patient samples you see an upregulation of NDRG1 being associated with poor prognosis and for others high NDRG1 means good prognosis. So there's still some controversy there. In triple negative breast cancer cells, iron collation actually induced an upregulation of PI3K signalling and induced transfer and expression. This made those triple negative breast cancer cells accumulate more iron, so there's still room for debate on NDRG1's exact role and it may not be consistent across all cancer types. Additionally, iron colladers can induce apoptosis, autophagy and also ear stress. We've also seen that when you combine iron colladers with PARP inhibition there is an increase in sensitivity in BRCA positive cell lines which would normally be resistant to the PARP inhibitors. So what I would really like to see next is more focus on clinical trials that use iron colladers in combination with chemotherapeutic drugs or possibly other anti cancer agents. We've seen a mixed bag of results with clinical trials with iron colladers. There's been a lack of response in some cases as well as resistance and some side effects. Potentially I would really like to see more focus on making iron colladers more selective. There are some studies that have shown if you encapsulate an iron collator in nanoparticles it makes them slightly more selective and effective against cancer cells. At the moment I am working alongside another PhD student Andrew Carter who Dr Vogher has mentioned and I'm working on investigating the effects of SK4 which is based on l-memozine and has a moiety that allows entry through the amino acid transporter LAT1. SK4 is aimed at targeting LAT1 over expressing tumors making it selectively cytotoxic potentially in clinic. OK, so I just want to really say thank you to everybody who has been involved in this research with SK4 which is an iron collator with the LAT1 moiety attached to it which we hope to be far more selective for cancer cells than perhaps some of the other iron collators that are out there at the moment. So I'd like to say thank you to David Tatard who is our synthetic chemist who has designed, synthesised and worked really hard to produce enough compound for us to test. And then our previous PhD student Satiris Kiriaku and his supervisor Mihailas Panagiotidis for all of their work underpinning a lot of the pilot data in melanoma that has enabled us to continue to look at this in more depth in other cell lines and then go on to look at the mechanisms. So yes, I want to thank all those that have been involved. Thank you.


I am so Mitro. I live in a small city in West Bengal, it's bird one. I was 15 years old when my mom just saw my back, it was slightly bent. First it, my mom thought that it was just some normal something or that, but out of curiosity they just took me to a local hospital and found out that I was having scoliosis. When we came to know about the details of it, it was really frightening for us. So slowly we just researched everywhere and thought that Manipul Hospital was the best place to get the surgery done. So when we came for the first time in Manipul Hospital, we met Dr. Vidyadharayesh. Master Soham Mitra came to us I think three years back when he was 15 years old and presented with a scoliosis of 85 degrees and a very rigid scoliosis. We evaluated him thoroughly with all the investigations pertaining to his lung condition, heart condition which are likely to get affected with a severe scoliosis of that magnitude. He was found to be fit for surgery. When entering I literally was a bit scared because like entering a hospital anyone would get scared about that. But when we came to meet the doctor he was really very nice, he was really very friendly. After we left the consultancy room I was a bit relieved. He gave us a lot of confidence. After three months we came back here and I got admitted here and the surgery started. Everyone was scared about that because it was a big surgery at this age. I was in class 10 at that time. This journey was not so easy but when we discovered this scoliosis it was very tough to us to handle this and understood this. He underwent a very extensive surgery of multiple ponte osteotomy and posterior spinal decompression and fusion from T4 to L4. He had a good correction of his scoliosis with adequate shoulder and pelvic balance. We could manage to retain two of his lower most discs so that his mobility in the low back is still maintained. The surgery went well. It was about eight hours the surgery went. After successful surgery slowly day after day he has improved and after one or two weeks he is completely ready to go back home. In the first phase it was really hard to do even the smallest of the things like picking something up or passing something. Everything I did I had a bit of pain but slowly after taking a rest, after doing some exercises I slowly healed. He was reviewed at yearly intervals and today he has come to us for a third year review and he has now turned 18. So he has maintained his scoliosis correction and has been square looking nice and with no asymmetry of shoulders or the hips. He doesn't need to come to us again and he can actively involve himself in any activities including aggressive contact sports. I had confidence in myself. I thought to just push myself and give the exams. So after two months I was ready. I really was very happy to see everyone once again in school. Everyone was looking for me that whether I was doing fine or not after such a big surgery. So after that my life just went like it should have meant to be. Now he is a completely normal person and a confident person and this all made for only one person that is Dr. Vidhadhara. He is the entire team of the spine care team and we are very happy.


Live from the Moscone Convention Center in San Francisco, California, it's theCUBE at Oracle OpenWorld 2014. Brought to you by headline sponsor QLogic with support from HGST, violin memory and MarkLogic. And now here are your hosts, Dave Vellante and Stu Miniman. Welcome to Oracle OpenWorld 2014, everybody. This is Dave Vellante and this is theCUBE's SiliconANGLE Media's continuous coverage of events around the world. And we're here at OpenWorld. This is our fifth year at Oracle OpenWorld. And the big question is, has Oracle late to the cloud party? Is Oracle going to subsume the cloud into its red stack? We heard from Larry Ellison last night. We're going to be unpacking these and other issues all day today. 2014 has been a year of transition for Oracle. The company just released last week its latest earnings announcements. I'll cover some of the highlights there today. I will be joined by a number of guests here. We're inside the QLogic booth on the show floor. And we've got tons of folks from the ecosystem, people of course from QLogic, folks from a number of other partners of Oracle, competitors of Oracle, Oracle itself is coming on. We're also simulcasting live from the show floor in another booth. My colleagues John Furrier and Jeff Fricker are inside the Cisco booth, covering that dimension of the ecosystem, particularly with the network angle. Kim Stevenson, who was just on the keynote, is over there now and going to be discussing things with John and Jeff. But so let me start by talking a little bit about where we're at with Oracle. As I said, 2014 is a year of transition for Oracle. Oracle last night, Larry Ellison, talked about the need, the commitment, the obvious need to deliver a full stack. And what does he mean by that? He's talking about Oracle's need to deliver infrastructure as a service, platform as a service with Java and middleware and of course database. And then SAS, software as a service, Oracle's intent is to be number one in software as a service, number one in database as a service and be competitive with Amazon and Google and Microsoft as an infrastructure as a service player. Larry Ellison said that several years ago it became obvious to him and others around Oracle, which of course, if it becomes obvious to Larry then it automatically becomes obvious to others around Oracle that they needed to compete in all three layers of the stack. That's a market difference from most software companies. Certainly you see IBM taking that path but IBM has sort of always been a hardware and a software company. But you don't necessarily see that from a number of other major players in the industry. For example, Amazon focused purely on infrastructure as a service, Workday focused on applications as a service but increasingly you are seeing companies like Microsoft like Salesforce take on a lot of that infrastructure management. So we'll be talking about that. Ellison said last night we are not a specialist like Salesforce or Workday. We're not a specialist like Amazon web services. We have to deliver the entire stack. We made a promise to our customers 30 years ago. He never really explained what that promise was last night. I don't really understand it. I'd be very interested in your thoughts on that. I'm at D. Volante on Twitter. I'll be checking Twitter all day. So please tweet me, your comments, your thoughts. Essentially, Ellison talked last night about a build and a buy strategy. They bought lots of SaaS applications. They bought whether it's talent management, marketing applications and the like. So you're seeing Oracle build this huge portfolio of applications all built on top of its Java and middleware platform, all running Oracle database. He also said we're very much involved in what he called all that jazz. And by all that jazz he meant microprocessors and memory and semiconductors and flash and disk drives. So basically the value proposition that Oracle is putting forth to its customers is as Larry said last night, with a click of a button you can move any Oracle application to the cloud, any Oracle database-based application to the cloud. Now that's the catch, right? It's got to be a part of the red stack. But I will say this, having been at VMworld last August and early September, earlier this month, Oracle's strategy and its value proposition as it relates to competing with the likes of Amazon and Google and Microsoft and its SaaS competitors and its platform competitors is very cogent. It's highly integrated and I think it's going to work, certainly in Oracle's part of the world. VMware for example has to compete in an ecosystem-based strategy and it's much harder for them to so-called herd the cats. I felt this though and I said this in theCUBE that I didn't think that VMware really had nailed the cloud strategy. I thought it nailed Docker. I thought it had nailed the open stack messaging but I felt like it didn't really nail the cloud strategy. I think Oracle has really embraced the cloud in a way that is going to transform the company. I'll share with you some of the highlights from Oracle's quarter last week. So Oracle's cloud business is now at a $2 billion run rate. Did 477 million in the quarters, growing at around 30%. It's forecast to grow according to Mark Hurd between 40 and 45% over the next several quarters. It's SaaS and past business is 339 million in the quarter. Its infrastructure as a service is on a half a billion dollar run rate now. Having said all that, of course the big move that Oracle made back in 2010 was it acquired Sun Microsystems for effectively $7 billion and its hardware business continues to decline. It's down about 8%, its product revenue and hardware is down about 14%. Having said that, Oracle's focused on things like Exadata, Exalytics, engineered systems. Its NAS business is growing with the ZFS appliance. It announced last night, actually I believe this morning, late last night, the FS1, the FS1 is a new SAN product that came out of the pillar data. Some of you may remember a company called Pillar Data that was born in the virtualization day along with companies like 3PAR and Compellant. Larry Ellison made an initial investment in pillar data and their emphasis was always quality of service and the like. They have announced, Oracle has announced a new SAN product. Now SAN has been in rapid decline so their hardware business is in major transition. Of course they're again bringing a lot of that into the cloud. Some other fun facts from the conference call last week, they claim that they've now three X Workday SaaS business. Its goal is to be bigger than Salesforce. People look at profits and price to earnings ratios and Oracle has missed its earnings expectations. It's become kind of a consistent habit of Oracle to miss some of its earnings expectations but one of the things that Oracle's not missing is its free cash flow. It is throwing off gobs and gobs of cash. Oracle threw off about 15 billion in free cash flow for the last four quarters. Just 6.5 billion in the last quarter alone. But it's new license revenue on-premises down about 2% but its maintenance business is going so they continue to milk the maintenance business. Engineered systems, exadata, exolytics, those appliances that have hardware and software engineered together are up in double digits. It's about a third of the product revenue now. So what you're seeing as Oracle is really a cash flow story. It's a transition to a cloud story. It's got a huge portfolio of things like human capital management and marketing automation and it builds in analytics, social, search and the like to all of its applications. So if you're developing applications on its platform in Java, you get the benefit of all of these innovations that Oracle's putting forth. That's the company's strategy. Of course the criticisms on Oracle remain. It's expensive, you're locked in. It's not about choice. Of course Larry Ellison would argue with that vehemently saying, hey everything's built on Java, standards matter. He said that several times last night as keynote. He also said just as quality was job one at Ford decades ago, security is becoming job one at Oracle. And so its strategy in competing with some of the infrastructure as a service providers is to have similar cost structures with better reliability, better security. I'm going to talk about this some more, bringing David Floria later on this week. But one of the things that Amazon has trouble with is bringing online transaction processing, the hard to move OLTP applications, really hard core database applications that Oracle's running, bringing those into its cloud. Now Oracle, or Amazon will point to many, many examples of Oracle databases running in its cloud, but you're not really seeing a broad based adoption of the hard core Oracle OLTP applications in the Amazon cloud. That's something that Oracle is clearly showing proof points for. The other thing that you heard from Ellison last night is if you move to the Oracle 12C database, which is going to be slow, it's going to be a slow transition, but he said you will endow your applications with modernity. Thought that was a standout quote last night. He also took a big swipe at SAP HANA. He said taking a tagline from SAP HANA powers the cloud. He asked who's cloud, what cloud, where. And then he said that 19 of the top 20 SaaS providers run on Oracle's platform. Salesforce runs on Oracle. Many of SAP's companies run on Oracle, including SuccessFactors, NetSuite, which is of course Larry invested in, Oracle of course runs on it. He didn't mention IBM. IBM's definitely the top 20 SaaS providers, so it's a little Oracle math on that. You saw some Oracle math last night as well on the EMC comparisons. Oracle was saying that it's five times faster than, I think nine times faster than EMC. Comparing of course bandwidth, really not comparing some of the other metrics. Latency, we're going to talk to Greg Scherer about that in a moment. Greg's a technology expert with Q-Logic. We're going to unpack some of those performance claims and really try to help people understand what performance is all about. Not just big data, but big fast data. But he talked about, Larry Ellison this is last night, talked a lot about Oracle's cloud, 400 petabytes of data in the cloud, 62 million users per day. So it's not Google scale, but it's pretty big and pretty impressive. So as I say, we're going to be going wall to wall here. Unpacking Oracle, talking to the analysts, talking to the people in the ecosystem, talking to Oracle itself. We've got Mike Workman coming on. He's a senior vice president at Oracle, member of Oracle, application providers at the Cisco booth with John Furrier and Jeff Frick. So we're going to be covering that wall to wall. Tweet me at atdvalante. Check out wikibon.org for all the research. David Flores posting some stuff up there today on the FS1 announcement. Also, check out siliconangle.com for all the news. And of course, watch us on siliconangle.tv. We'll be here all day. This is theCUBE. theCUBE is SiliconANGLE's live mobile studio. We'll go out to the events. We extract the signal from the noise. We're here at Oracle OpenWorld 2014, live in the QLogic booth at Moscone South. Please stop by and see us. We're right near the Oracle demo room. And as I say, we'll be going all day today, tomorrow, and Wednesday. So keep it right there, everybody. This is Dave Vellante. We'll be right back after this work.
