The SMSF reforms have really provided a bit of a call to action for advisors and clients to sit down and look at their portfolio allocation under the new rules and in that process also to ensure that they've got a true balance. What we're finding is a lot of investors are a little over farmed in the equity market. They're putting a lot more allocation into cash and the current levels that can be a real drag on your return. So it's really about ensuring that you're generating enough to grow and lock in the retirement that you want but at the same time providing some protection. I think one of the most important things about incorporating bonds in an investment portfolio is the certainty that they provide. I think as you reach retirement you're looking to protect and grow. So it's really about providing some capital protection and bonds do that through their maturity date when you know you're going to get that money back on as face value and also the income generated. So you've got more certainty around that investment. You know the outcome of an investment in bonds when you make that investment decision. Well traditionally really the bond market's been about going out and individually choosing the bonds you want and that's got great synergy with SMSF holders who like that control, like that transparency, like to be able to incorporate ethical choices into their investment portfolio while the managed account essentially allows an investor to focus more on their retirement and outsource that investment choice. I think you spend a lot of time over recent years bringing more technology and efficiency into being able to access the global bond market. There are now a simple one-in-a-form onboarding process which essentially sets up a custody account in your name. Once you've got that in place you can go out and start buying whichever bonds you'd like to and we support that through the advisor network, through data feeds, full visibility through our online site as well so that that can be incorporated into your overall portfolio reporting.


Hey y'all, what's up? My name is Sonali and I've been living here in Austin, Texas for about two years now. Me and my boyfriend live on Riverside and we're just trying to look to switch it up. So we're planning on moving out of our apartment and we want to kind of just check out other areas. So I've already done a tour for Central Austin, East Austin, but today we are touring around Mueller. I'm pretty sure a couple of the apartments are right in Mueller and then the others are a little bit like North and South of it. So we're going to get a taste for this whole area and Mueller is one of my favorite spots here in Austin. It's just such a nice like walkable area and I feel like I've been saying that about, you know, the other areas too. But that's the thing I love about Austin. I feel like a lot of the places are very walkable.  If money wasn't an option and there was houses available, I would definitely buy a house in Mueller because this is like my ideal area. So I thought I would just go ahead and check out the apartments in the area because if you know, you know, Austin housing market is a little bit crazy right now and kind of impossible to buy a house. So I'm not even going to try. I also am just 24. So I feel like I could definitely wait a couple more years, save a little bit more money and buy a house that I really, really like. If you're apartment touring like me, I highly recommend to get an apartment locator. I've been partnering with Smart City on this apartment touring series and they have helped me so much. They basically just take the things I want in an apartment and then create a personalized list of apartments for me to tour from there. Once you sign a lease, your agent will actually get a commission from the apartment that you chose. So you don't have to pay anything. This service is completely free if you stumbled across this video, but you're not looking to live in Austin. Don't worry because Smart City actually operates in a bunch of major cities. Dallas, Fort Worth, Austin, San Antonio, Houston, Atlanta, Denver and Nashville. If you're interested in any of the apartments I showed today, go to the link in my description box where you can be matched with a local licensed real estate agent and start touring from there. As you can tell, it's a pretty gloomy day here in Austin. I feel like every single time I try to tour apartments, it's been gloomy, which isn't great to see the lighting in the apartments, but we are going to go see these apartments anyways and it's time to start touring. Starting off in the heart of Mueller. This is a one bedroom, one bath. It is 690 square feet and I did think that this is a pretty spacious one bedroom. As you can see in the bed, I'm pretty sure this is a king and there was so much space to walk around even with the dresser sitting there. I did think that the kitchen and the bathrooms were a little outdated just compared to the ones I've seen today and just like in the past. The closet was huge and then this is a one bedroom, one den and the kitchen did have a darker finish to it. I did like the lighter one if I had to choose and then this is the den. It came with a built-in kind of office, which is awesome and then here is the living room. It's humongous, but it is a corner unit, this specific unit at least, so it didn't really get too much light. It was a gloomy day, so it could have been that, but the closets here are huge and then the bathroom again is an awesome bathroom, but you know, I feel like I've definitely seen a little bit more updated bathrooms. Here are some of the amenities like the pool, some lounging spaces, some places where you could work from home and all of that fun stuff. Moving on to our second property of the day, I want to start off with the amenities and I feel like they just had endless amount of places to work from home. They did have two phases, so the first phase had like the fitness center, the big pool and this whole clubhouse, but this one, this little clubhouse, so cute, literally looks like its own little coffee shop was in the second phase, so that's really awesome. And then their fitness center was probably the most advanced I've seen so far. Since they did have two phases, they had one large pool in the first phase and then they also had this little cute pool that you can just sit by, you can go in. I thought it was really cute. I'm not even joking you when I say that my jaw dropped when I walked into this unit, because like I said, it was a gloomy day and it was still really bright in there, but also this kitchen was beautiful. It was everything I ever wanted, all white, had built-ins, the backsplash was really cute. And then the bedrooms were actually pretty big compared to all of the units I've been seeing so far. And then wait for it guys, just when it couldn't get better. There's marble in the bathroom. Like what? This shower is huge. They have double vanities. The closet is really big too. They have built-ins in the closet, which is awesome. And then look, there's this like sitting area in the shower. I just thought that was so cool. All right, moving into the guest room. Also really, really big. The windows are huge, so it lets in so much light. And then this is the guest bathroom, so it has all that storage that I really like. And then it has a huge closet as well in the guest room. This was the second unit that I saw at the same apartment complex. This apartment did have different finishing. So as you can tell in the bathroom, it's not marble. It's like this wooden kind of feel. I don't even know, like a tile thing. I definitely did like the marble better, but even these bedrooms are so big. And this one actually was a corner unit, so it got even more light than the other one. You actually could have the option to get the marble. It's just, I think it's every other floor has the marble, and then the other floors have the tile situation. And then they had this extra room for like a dining table or whatever you wanted to put in this. The kitchen here with different backsplash, so it wasn't all white, but it was still stunning. Walking into our third property of the day, starting with amenities again. This is just a common area. You can use it for working from home or use the kitchen behind the counter. And what I thought was really cool about this property is that it has a rooftop pool and it has unlimited towel service. So it actually comes within your rent, which was very unique. The unit itself definitely gave me LA vibes for some reason. I just thought it was just very simple, you know, clean cut. I did have higher hopes for the bathroom, I will say, but the closet is really big. And if I didn't mention this is a one bedroom, one bathroom. This is our last property of the day, and they had so many places to just chill outside of your apartment, work from home. I definitely was prioritizing looking for somewhere where I could just get on my apartment, but, you know, stay in the same apartment complex. And it definitely reminded me of a tech startup, but those steps with the cushions definitely gave me those vibes. And then they had an amazing fitness center and their pool is huge. They could only show me a two bedroom, two bathroom, but the kitchen was massive and I loved just like the open feel of this apartment. And this apartment was 1295 square feet. Here's the guest bathroom, pretty good size. And then the guest bedroom, which had a decent size closet as well. And then I also liked how they had a dining table in this area if you wanted to do that. And then going into the master bedroom, this bed was also huge and there was a lot of space to walk around it. So we love to see it. Here's the master bathroom. We have double vanities. We have this beautiful shower and a huge closet. I just got done touring and these places actually blew me away. I was in love with, I think it was the second one I toured. Oh my goodness, the kitchen was beautiful. I loved like the more like farmhouse backsplash in the kitchen. And a lot of the kitchens today were huge, which was very much appreciated because I have a lot of kitchen appliances that definitely need some storage. So that was great. And then also like I feel like the closets were really big. One was right in Mueller. So like literally steps away from like the Mueller Lake Park and everything like that. But I think the others were a little bit north. So one was on Burnett Road and a couple of vlogs back. I actually vlogged us having dinner there. It's a really nice like strip of like cute little restaurants and that area is just really nice too. There's a bunch of like homes over there. It is a little bit more north than I would personally like to live. And even the ones I really liked like the second one and I think the fourth one that I toured, those were in the Highland area. I'm pretty sure that's what it's called. And that is a little bit more north than Mueller. So the places were literally stunning. The amenities blew me away. The design of the place. I mean those two buildings were a lot newer right now. We do live on Riverside. So we're about 15 minutes from downtown and it would kind of be the same if we were to move in that Highland area. So I know we want to be a little bit closer to downtown. So I don't know if like, you know, it's worth it to just move to like a place that's equidistant from our place right now because the main goal is to be closer to downtown. But these places are such a great option. If you kind of just want to be a little bit outside of the city but still want to be, you know, close enough where you can like Uber to meet friends and drink and, you know, do all the fun stuff in Austin. So that wraps up this video. If you guys are interested in seeing more of these apartment tours, I have a central Austin video and an East Austin video already up that you can watch. So I'll link them down in the description box. If you are looking for a new apartment or your first apartment, I highly recommend to get in contact with Smart City because seriously, they do all of the hard work. You literally just do the fun part, which is touring the places and, you know, getting to see where your future home is. I'll have a link in the description box where you can get in contact with Smart City and kind of start looking for your next apartment there. Don't forget to follow them on Instagram and TikTok. Like I said in the previous videos, I have followed them ever since I lived in Austin because they just have really cool content like they post tour videos all the time. If you're looking for things to do in Austin or just want to see someone living here in real time, you can go follow me on Instagram. It's so underscore gnarly without the G and I will see y'all in the next video. Bye.


You know how when you join a site and you know your way to old for it, but continue playing anyway Well, I found this site called food pets I got hooked instantly the poppies and Kevin's were so cute And I just had to have more and more then came the change where you could only stay on if you paid a membership I didn't even think twice about paying up. I was told I was a fool Paying for 99 pounds a month for pixels. I honestly couldn't have cared less I adored the site even though the admins were tyrants I played through a few months kept adding and selling pets getting more and more addicted Then I stumbled across a pet that had a very unusual photo and yes Photo was spelled with an F rather than pH. It was taken in the photo studio But instead of just seeing the pets I could see the entire studio Everything was eerily blacked out. I thought it was fake, but it was in this pets photos not on the profile It has legitimately been taken. I giggled with excitement paid them the food dollars They wanted and brought him home though. It didn't seem right He would frown at me instead of panting happily wagging his tail Sometimes his screen was tinted red sometimes it was black and white This was a real glitcher it didn't weird me out at all until I looked at the picture again the next morning That's when it set in why would reddit make a pet like this a pet that glitches like this surely they would fix him I sent it through to support and they said he looked fine to them Maybe it was just my PC sticking a frame from just after they barked by accident And the colors could be my Adobe needing to be updated I updated Adobe and refreshed the page on him He stayed frowning but patches of the screen were the only way to describe it Is that it looked like the details had been etched onto the black card the scarring leaving red marks It terrified me. I didn't sell him though. I kept him I didn't want to get rid of such a rare glitch I logged on the next day and my top pet's name had changed to deceased But in the breeding section the name stayed exactly the same the next day the same thing happened Except now it said keeping me was stupid Wasn't it as you can tell I was confused and scared my screenshots were dismissed as fake by the admins and ambassadors I tried to cancel my club foo, but it wouldn't let me I tried deleting my account It wouldn't let me I went back to my profile page and looked down my deceased pets I tried to play with them, but they just didn't show in their scenes.  The redness had spread over his entire body now Since he was now my only pet I changed his scene a bit and tried to pretend He was a normal dog tried and failed. He seemed to glow a little in places, too Occasionally patches of him would flash normal I kept seeing him out of the corner of my eye for the next week when I looked at him He leaped out of full sight just wagging his tail and panting But with that weird red effect on his fur, he wasn't doing any harm So I ignored him the next week. He was closer Instead of being across the other side of the room He stood just a few feet away when I could see him He took longer to leap out of my vision when I looked directly at him and closer again He was practically touching me and didn't leap out of my line of vision He would just look up at me as if expecting me to pet him I walked around my sleepy old town and people would compliment me on my new dog My Australian shepherd called Bayard. They saw his coat as being perfectly normal for an Aussie chef, of course I named him Bayard because I knew his name was Bayard His name was Bayard when he was just a food pet. He isn't exactly a friendly puppy though I can see it in his eyes that the photo in the studio was something dark and disturbing for him I sat down and opened up food pets on my browser He had his paws up on my knees grinning His scene was empty and all my pets were still called deceased and blacked out Bayard yipped excitedly. I pet in his head and kept scrolling down Nothing else had changed. So I shrugged unsure about his excitement Then he whimpered as I went to close the browser. I stocked for a moment Then decided to browse the forums. I clicked the forums tab Nothing. I frowned and clicked it again Nothing. I clicked for a third time and instantly regretted it Bayard barked insanely as if trying to talk to the red dog that was against my screen He was grinning.  At least I knew where he was This is the only memory I have of my entire life I've forgotten my mother, my father, all of my family Obviously I met them again, but they just feel alien Of course, I still have Bayard. His red has changed to a cool blue now though I kind of miss the red, but at least it's not as eerie now I know he said he isn't friendly and he probably sounds like a lifelong companion, right? He really is a lifelong companion. He's a tough sticker and he won't budge What's so bad about that? You have no idea what this bundle of life eats He goes through at least 12 people a week.


Iran's Basij militia claims the ground has been prepared for Israel's disappearance. The commander of Iran's Basij militia claims the ground has been prepared for Israel's disappearance as the regime's proxies around the region continue attacks on the Jewish state and its ally, the US. The biggest media giants are Jews. They know that the Islamic Republic of Iran has targeted the existence of the Zionist regime and the groundwork for its eradication has been laid. Gholamriza Salimani stated during a public gathering. The statement comes after Iran vowed its proxy groups will rally around the Palestinian Hamas and eventually defeat Israel. However, the Iranian regime has stayed out of the Gaza war as Israel has vowed to dismantle Hamas. Iran backed Hamas has since been supported by Iran's proxies in Iraq, Syria, Lebanon and Yemen who have attacked Israel from its northern border and Red Sea coast and US facilities across the region. Punishment for Biden's support for Israel's right to defend itself in the wake of the October atrocities. Salimani has repeatedly vocalized the regime's sentiments towards Israel as money is poured into overseas proxies in the war on Israel and the US. A justification of the misplaced budget priorities as the country suffers its worst economic crisis since the founding of the Islamic Republic. In 2015, Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei, who founded the proxy militias as a strategy to eliminate its arch enemy, said the Jewish state must be destroyed in 25 years. The government set up a countdown clock in Tehran and other cities to mark the journey a gesture marked by many Iranians.


Merci beaucoup pour l'institut, pour m'accueillir aujourd'hui. J'étais honnête, comme je l'ai dit, durant la fête que nous avons évoquée, de s'attendre sous la picture de Jacques Delors, un grand européen européen. Et je veux aussi remercier le frère ambassadeur et le frère ambassé pour faire cette visite possible, ici, et à la Dablen International Book Fair, ce soir. Quand Médinemouche, un frère Giadi, a went into the Jewish Museum in Brussels on May 25, 2014, and killed three people, the first one died of his wounds. I described it as what could be the path to a Europe in 911, at that very time. I don't like to use this kind of parallels, I'm a historian, we know that analogy is not history, but at the same time, I was trying to find the world to deliver a wake-up call that unfortunately went on many deaf ears, but already everything was there. The guy was not an homegrown terrorist, he was not a lone wolf, he had been trained and groomed to Giadi terror in Syria. ISIS or Daesh in its Arab acronym was pervert enough to use him as one of the prison warden. If you understand what I mean physically speaking and torture speaking of French hostages in a place I know well, Aleppo, because the last time I was there, I was not aware, fortunately, that I was hiding 400 meters away from the place where my friends and compatriotes were jailed by Daesh, so this guy had already quite a record. He used his criminal connection in the now and famous neighborhood of Molenbeek in Brussels to achieve this criminal act. And then he went to France, where he was caught in Marseille with many weapons including machine guns, but fortunately for everybody, he didn't go suicide, otherwise he would have perpetrated also a massacre in Marseille. So already we're talking May 2014, everything is there. What changed after that is the dimension, is the number of people involved, is the connection between attacks. And every time the blow is delivered, it's a tragedy, it's a moment of mourning and then we wake up as though it's a nightmare and the nightmare is over. I will have a positive message in the end, but I must start saying that we are in the middle of the nightmare and the nightmare is not going to fade away just by closing our eyes and reopening it. And the nightmare is not something that has been growing in our neighborhood, in our societies, so it's very legitimate to have a public debate about the failures of our policy system, education system, the flaws in our penitential system, but if we had the most perfect system of fall in all the fields, you still will have jihadis. So the issue is over there, it's not here. But because the issue is over there, it has to be confronted in a European way. Because for them Europe is a vast battleground, they don't make distinction of boundaries, of national structure, the only distinction they have is linguistic. Interestingly enough, in Belgium, Flemish jihadis, Flemish-speaking jihadis, work with the Dutch ones, not with their fellow Belgium. And when they are in Syria, they are not in the same camps. Camps are organized by language, which is a big difference with al-Qaeda. Because al-Qaeda, with all its global propaganda, you came to the Madafa, which means the guest house of the Tunisians, of the Moroccans, of the Algerians. While now you have organized the Russian speakers, and by the way, the number of Russian-speaking jihadis now with ISIS is probably similar, if not higher than the number of all European jihadis. Maybe that's something Russia should think about at one moment or another, instead of bombing in Syria at this very time, the people were fighting the jihadis. So you had this May 2014, then you had Charlie Hebdo, hyper-Cachère, and the French police woman killed from 7 to 9 January 2015. Then you had the Bataclan and Saint-Denis in November. Then you had on 22 March, an attack that was not on Brussels, it was an attack on Europe, the airport, but the metro station that is the closest one to the European Parliament and the European institution. And it was very clear that it was an attack on Europe in the very jihadist propaganda. But in the meantime, those people have been striking from San Bernardino, California, to Jakarta, Indonesia. And you don't have one week without a major high-sister attack, the most recent ones having taken place in Baghdad, Iraq, with which time, dozens of casualties. So it's a global outfit that is far more dangerous than Al-Qaeda in its aid. Al-Qaeda, on 9-11, was less than 1,000 members and was stuck, literally, in a place, the tribal areas between Pakistan and Afghanistan, that is both geopolitical dead-end and a very shallow symbol. You can say horizon, horizon, but basically, you know, it doesn't ring a lot of bells in the potential recruits. While today, you have ISIS that is controlling a territory if you are optimistic the size of Jordan, if you are pessimistic the size of the United Kingdom. With, probably, no figures are fully accurate, 30,000 foreign fighters or something in that dimension, which is very accessible from Europe. I'm 54, I'm not very fit. I was in Jihadiland and back in Paris in 36 hours. And I don't have a support network. Otherwise, you can come back even quicker. And what is most important and very often under study, it's Bilad-e-Sham, it's a country of sham. And sham, which means at the same time Damascus and Syria, the country of sham is Syria as a whole, is very heavily charged in Muslim expectation of the judgment day. I wrote a book about that, Apocalypse in Islam, in 2008. And it was my most toxic book because it's all toxic.  But I had one good news. Al-Qaeda was not apocalyptic, what ISIS is.  You have a problem in saying, oh, listen, judgment day is not going to happen. And somebody believes that judgment day is going to happen. You can put him into 100 hours of deradicalization program to no avail. We knew that in the Middle Ages in Europe, you know. Just recently, we read L'oeuvre au noir by Marguerite Ursula, where you have people going to minstere in 1534 because they believe judgment day is tomorrow. How can you fight that by debunking the prophecies? And the prophecies say they are going to war against us in Bile of the Sham. And not only they are going to war, but the room. And the room are the orthodox. And the orthodox are the Russians. So thank you, Mr. Poutine. You added a new intensity to prophecies that are already at the core of the recruiting machine. Because ISIS is like a cult, and like all cult, it has to have a coherent vision of the world to the elected few, the chosen few, that will be part of the vanguard, of the self-proclaimed vanguard. In ISIS, you have five categories for the whole humanity. The first category is them. And they call themselves the Muslims. But most of the Muslims, in fact 99% of the Muslims for them are the apostates, are the false Muslims. Then you have the heretics. And the heretics are non-sunni Muslims. And then you have the Jews and the Crusaders, which are basically all of us. And so they consider that this category can take over all the others. And instead of debunking the prophecies the only way you can debunk it, which is inflicting them a fatal blow, we are containing them. I love that word. I've been a diplomat for 20 years. But you cannot contain totalitarian jihadi terrorism. If you don't defeat it, then it will expand. And this is exactly what it is doing now. The problem is that the cognitive dissonance is usually the privilege of the cult. In many sectors of Western leadership you have cognitive dissonance today. I'm not speaking about my country and I'm very proud of my country speaking against this cognitive dissonance. But when you hear people, for instance in DC, saying we are defeating ISIS, we don't live in the same world. We don't live in the same world. Because in the meantime ISIS is recruiting, is expanding, and they think, look, the whole world is against us and we are still winning. So of course the prophecy is being fulfilled if this kind of thing happened. The worst thing that ever happened in the fight against ISIS is the invention of the self-defeating concept of coalition. If you have a coalition, you have a united leadership that fights for a common goal. There is no coalition to fight ISIS. There is no coherence in the operation. Because basically Washington and Moscow don't fight the same war. For Mr. Putin, Mr. Putin is very coherent. He is very coherent. There's nothing called people. People are conspiracy by the CIA, by the Mossad. So if people rebel against the regime, then the regime should treat the people like a foreign threat. This is exactly what he did in Chechnya. This is exactly what he's doing in Syria on behalf of Ispal Assad. So he's not fighting ISIS. He's fighting the people who could fight ISIS and bombing them in Aleppo and in other places. Just one month ago, the last corridor between Turkey and Jihadiland. It's so small places you never heard about but by the way, there was not even a line in the newspaper called Arai. Was taken by the Syrian revolutionaries who are fighting both ISIS and Assad. It was taken for two days because ISIS regrouped its forces and because there is no aerial support to the Syrian revolutionaries who were overwhelmed. Which means that the right line is still functioning. You can still go in and out. So instead of having some kind of priority, maybe the fall of Arai, the closure of this right line is a priority. No, no, we're doing exactly the contrary. We're letting them with their own game because everybody has priorities that are different from the fight of ISIS, against ISIS. The Turks against the Kurds, the Kurds against the Turks. Assad against his own people. The Iranians against their various local rivals. Saudis against Iran and so on and so forth. The American strategy is basically flawed for three reasons. First, he considers the priorities Iraq because they're still healing the wounds and licking all the injuries they got from the fatal and terrible invasion of 2003 that literally opened the gates of the Middle East to Zan al-Qaeda and today ISIS. So they still focus on Iraq. They are apparently unable to grasp the simple fact that I don't know one foreign jihadi who went over there for Iraq. They go there for Syria because of Bilad-e-Sham and because of all the propaganda saying all the Muslims have been abandoned, they have been gassed, they have been massacred and the whole world is looking. This is all propaganda. This is the first time in history that you have some kind of humanitarian jihad.  They believe they're doing it for good, against evil. They are not in the same mindset like the people going to Afghanistan who knew perfectly that they were going there to kill, shoot and rape. No, no. They believe they go there for solidarity. So first, flow of the American strategy focus on Iraq and they're still focusing on Iraq. For them, Syria is a sideshow. Second flow is that in Syria, you don't have to support the local forces, the revolutionary forces who are Arab and Sunnis because if you do that, then you have a problem with Assad, you have a problem with Russia. So, ah, they just discovered the Kurds. The Americans just discovered the Kurds. That is their path to Damascus. And now, they love the Kurds. Our Kurds are wonderful. First, there is one party, they love that. They don't like all these people revolution where you have committee, everybody shouting at each other. In Syria, it would have been already 10 times somebody would have stood up and interrupted me because those people, they have lived under dictatorship for 42 years. They cannot let anybody in the West from, they always have to interfere. So, Americans, they don't like that. And you have this wonderful thing which is really, correct me if I'm wrong, but you know the chief of their special forces or operation, former special forces, have been to Syria but you don't know where. So, they make an announcement saying he has been to Syria but they don't want to say where because everybody know where he's been. He've been with the Kurdish militias. So, it's already tough to swallow all that for Turkey because the same Kurdish militias are putting bomb in Turkey, a NATO ally. So, there is a slight contradiction maybe in doing this with the Kurds. But anyway, no matter what you think about that, I will deliver a blunt reality, the Kurds have reached their limit. They cannot go one meter over. It's finished. Even the last city they conquered, they cleansed it from non-curds. So, believing the Kurds could go down to the Euphrates Valley is just a denial of reality. And the third flow of the US strategy is that one day you can reach an agreement in Russia and that this will cool thing down in Syria. Wow, this is not a cold war. It's a very hot war. And most of the people who are over there are not the pounds of anybody. I do believe that even if Mr. Putin asked very bluntly to Assad to step down, he won't. So, the idea that you can deal by proxy this war is totally out of touch with this reality. And on this reality, ISIS is prospering. Challenge to Europe. Because we have probably 5,000 European jihadis over there. 5,000. There would be 50s that would be already a security issue. 1,000 is just mind-boggling. Because contrary to what the Russians believe, they won't be all killed over there. You know, that was the rationale of the various Arab intelligence services when they sent the extremists to Afghanistan in the 80s. And most of them came back.  First, because of the sheer magnitude of the number, 5,000. What do you do with that? So, there's not one good answer. It has to be a set of answers that involves the various bureaucracies. But there should be a solidarity at the European level to really tackle this issue as a European challenge. I would have loved also NATO to take a lead, but obviously NATO is involved with other things et NATO is not even able to defend Turkey. So, first you have to understand that it's not what we do, but it is what we don't do that makes us more vulnerable. If you take the chronology, when Mr Nemush is attacking the Jewish Museum in Brussels, there's not one bullet fired by any European against ISIS, not one. And even the last attack in Brussels was done while Belgium was not part of the coalition. It is now discussing its return to the coalition. So, first let's stop saying that we attack them so they strike back. No, no, no. It's because we don't attack them enough and we don't strike them enough that they are able to strike back. I'm very confident that ISIS will be defeated, you know? OK, let's put the number at maximum. 60,000 people over there with this territory. If really you have a strategy and a coalition, it can be dealt with pretty rapidly. And we have a precedent. And we have a precedent. In 2001, you had 9-11. Everybody understood it was a global challenge. It was not America. In French, we had this famous editorial, two Americans, we are all Americans. So, we had a real coalition, a real coalition. It was not America against Afghanistan, America against the Taliban and al-Qaeda. It was a unanimous security council resolution, chapter 7. And it was a coalition with 60 states, each one contributing in its capacity. And what is even more important before going to the coalition, after 9-11, a series of attacks were planned. The US Embassy in Paris. Petrochemical installation in Singapore. Warships in the Gibraltar streets. So all this could have happened if we hadn't gone for the head. And the head was in Kandahar, Afghanistan. The same way the head today is in Raqqa, Syria. So if you just do bombing, it can present certain benefits towards public opinion. Like you see, we are doing what we have to do because we have been attacked and we are striking back. But no war has ever been won by airbombing. Otherwise, the US would have won the war in Vietnam. So you need local forces, not foreign forces. Foreign forces is exactly what ISIS wants. Et si vous vous rappelez, la façon dont les Talibans et l'Al-Qaïda, l'ancien et le safe haven, ont été détruits en octobre, novembre 2011, il n'y avait pas de forces grandes. Il y avait une grande erreur, mais c'était un autre débat. Il y avait localement des forces afghanes qui voulaient libérer leur pays de ce qu'ils ont perçu dans l'Al-Qaïda comme une occupation foreign. De la même manière aujourd'hui, vous avez un nombre signifiant de Syriens qui considèrent l'ISIS comme une occupation, ce qui est pourquoi, d'ailleurs, je sais que ce n'est pas le cas dans l'Islande, mais en France, il y a beaucoup de femmes parce qu'ils veulent qu'ils restent avec les Français, ou les Jihadistes françaises, donc qu'ils ne comprennent pas la clé de ce qui se passe en Syrie, alors que, même si les Jihadistes françaises n'étaient pas un peu conscients, si ils avaient à marier une femme locale d'un tribe local, et qu'ils comprennent ce que l'ISIS est vraiment en train de faire pour la population locale. Donc, vous avez ces troupes de terrain, ces forces locales qui ont acté dans le terrain avec l'intelligence, et vous savez, comme... parce que vous ne devriez pas croire, j'ai un bias avec l'Amérique, j'ai des grands amis et des parcs en Amérique, et une de mes références, et je suis le général David Petraeus, le général David Petraeus, c'était celui qui a vraiment reçu part de l'Irak de l'Al-Qaeda, et d'un coup, après sa députation, ses politiques ont été détruites. Et ce que l'a été le général Petraeus dire, vous savez, les forces locales, elles ont 5 clés plus que nous. Ils drinkent l'eau, ils nourrissent la nourriture, ils connaissent le terrain, ils parlent la langue, et ils ont des accounts pour s'assurer la motivation. Vous savez, ces gens-là, ils sont là en Syrie, mais comme je vous l'ai dit, ils sont formés par les Russes, parce que ces gens ne veulent pas seulement s'assurer l'Isaïs, ils veulent aussi s'assurer l'Assad, et ils se sont restés dans un épaule, dans un battement terrible. En tant que l'Isaïs, dans le contrôle de l'Isaïs, vous avez le plan terroriste, le plan qui va dans l'Europe, et nous allons avoir d'autres tragédies, j'ai peur. Avez-vous de l'Europe propre ou avez-vous de l'experience de votre pays avec la mort des villes et des citoyens dans l'Isaïs, en Tunisie, par exemple, le dernier juin 2015 ? Je ne dis pas que c'est facile, je dis que tous les autres options sont très mauvaises et sont seulement poursuivies l'agony de ce jihadisme qui est allumé sur notre tête. Mais au contraire, il faut comprendre que l'Isaïs est défeuble parce que c'est tout de même profiter de l'erreur des gens qui sont supposés à combattre l'opposé. Et je dis qu'il a besoin de l'expérience européenne parce que n'importe quoi brouillant ou rélevé qui sera en train de faire cette lutte contre l'Isaïs, sera pas utile, mais seulement partial si, dans le pays suivant, le business se passe comme normalement. Parce que immédiatement, ils vont comprendre. Et vous pouvez voir Nemouchi entré en Francfort avant de transiter les choses en Belgique et finir en Francfort. Coulibali, qui attaque l'hyper-cachère en janvier 2015, il probablement boute ses armes de la Belgique. Mais ce qui est encore plus important, il a infiltré ses partenaires de l'Espagne et elle est maintenant en Raca. Elle a été immédiatement transfert à ses quartiers de l'organisation GAD. Donc, je vous promets, je vais terminer sur la note rosie. Le challenge est énorme. C'est un challenge à l'Europe. En orderant à l'adresser, nous avons besoin de plus de l'Europe et plus de l'Europe ne veut pas juste dire plus de l'Europe en armes. Il veut dire quelque chose qui s'appelle une politique. Et la politique est multifaceted. Il tient à interrompre notre relation avec la Russie et l'Amérique, ce qui n'est pas facile. Notre relation avec la Turquie, qui probablement est plus drôle. Mais il tient aussi à interrompre la façon dont nous voulons vivre dans ce monde qui doit être ouvert, tolérant, multiculturel. Et c'est exactement ce que l'ISIS veut détruire. Et c'est probablement aussi pourquoi il va être défeuille. Merci beaucoup.


American model and reality TV star Kylie Jenner has revealed that she's expecting her second baby with partner Travis Scott. Rumors have been circulating the last few weeks that the 24-year-old was expecting again, but now the mom of one has confirmed that baby number two is on the wing.  For the video, Kylie can be seen holding a pregnancy test while boyfriend, artist Travis Scott hugs her stomach. The video then cuts to the couple in a car and Kylie asking the three-year-old daughter Stormi if she was ready to go to mommy's doctor. The reality TV star was then told at the sonogram that she's days away from a heartbeat before Stormi's hand Kris Jenner speaks from the scan.


In the last few lectures, we have started a new topic that is transmission mechanism of monetary policy in which we have discussed interest rate channel as well as other asset price channel. Then in the last lecture, we started the third type of monetary policy transmission mechanism and that is credit view or credit channel. Within the credit channel, we have already discussed bank lending channel and now we move on to another channel which is also a credit channel. This is called balance sheet channel. Balance sheet channel main basic issue is that whenever monetary policy changes, then the net worth of the farms is changed. Net worth means that the final market value of assets and liabilities is different. Because of that, their net worth is changed. Now it is clear to you that we have said that financial frictions are due to asymmetric information and because of that, the process of lending becomes difficult and the lending comes down. So whenever net worth comes down from the firm, that means their balance sheet gets disturbed, net worth comes down, then the asymmetric information problem of financial frictions becomes more severe and that means that the lending becomes more effective. And the simple thing is that when the net worth of the farms comes down, then the collateral is not as much as the amount of loan that is required. So if the collateral is not available, then in that case, the lenders who have a selection procedure for lending, due to the lack of collateral, their adverse selection problem becomes more severe. Whereas the problem of moral hazard is also more. The reason for this is that because the stake of the farms is less, their net worth is less, if they get the loan, then because their equity is less, they can invest in more risky projects. So this means the problem of adverse selection is also severe, the problem of moral hazard is also more. The result is that the financial frictions increase and the financial frictions increase means that the lending becomes more problematic. Now in this case, if we discuss the balance sheet channel, then what can be the role of the monetary policy in this situation? So what will the monetary policy change? The monetary policy changes the interest rate. So the instrument of the monetary policy is that although the nominal interest rate changes, but if expectations are given, then the real interest rate will change. But real interest rate for example, decreases. Monetary policy, we say that the loss, the expansionary, real interest rate decreases. So in the case of real interest rate decreasing, we have already read that the prices of stock or other assets increase. We have discussed the channel in detail. This means the price of equity, the price of stock will increase when the real interest rate will decrease. And since the balance sheet of the firms, the stocks in the assets are equity, this means that the net worth of the firms will increase. When the net worth of the firms increases, then the problem of adverse selection for lenders decreases and the borrowers' moral hazard tendency decreases. What will be the result? Lending increases, investment increases, aggregate demand increases.  What is the net worth here? Now what we are reading on the credit channel, in which we have discussed the bank lending channel, in which we have discussed the balance sheet channel, there is another type of cash flow channel. So first let us understand what cash flow is. Look, the accounts of the firms have money receipts, that is, money inflow is also increasing, whereas the payments of the money are also increasing, that is, the money outflow is also increasing. So this inflow and outflow, outflow and inflow are the cash flows of the firms. Now how do we get net cash flows? Net cash flows are that the money receipts of the firms minus the payments of the money, then the net cash flows. So when the interest rate is low in the market, obviously due to the monetary policy, when the interest rate is low, then the cash outflow, the debt repayments and interest payments in the firm, the total amount is reduced in the net. Whereas on the other hand, if the inflows are not affected because they are coming from the other side, they are not interest based, that means the net cash flows of the firms will increase. Now the net cash flows increase, then it is called liquidity, that is, the chances of defaulting with the firms are reduced, that is, the net worth or net cash flows or its liquidity increases. So in such cases, then how does a channel of cash flow work? First of all, nominal interest rate is low. Now you have to keep in mind that I start every channel with real interest rate. This is the first channel in which I am starting with nominal interest rate and you should make it clear that the debt obligations of the firms are always in nominal terms. The bond of 100 rupees is 100 rupees only. If there is a 10% interest rate above that, then 10 rupees is to be paid extra. So in the nominal terms of 110 rupees, the inflation rate should be reduced. That means if the nominal interest rate is reduced, then the net cash flow of the firms increases. Now since the liquidity of the firms increases, that means the tendency of their moral hazard is reduced and the problem of lenders' adverse selection is also reduced. What is the result? There is more lending, there is more investment and the aggregate demand increases. Another channel in this is the credit rationing. The concept of credit rationing is that if the borrowers have the opportunity to invest, and that is why they are willing to pay higher interest, they are willing that they will pay more interest because we have such opportunities of business. But still the problem is that the problem for lenders is that the risky projects of the firms are generally ready to pay higher interest rates. This means that if the market has high interest rates and the high interest rates are ready to take borrowers' loans, then in the case of lenders, maybe these are risky investment firms, then they are ready to take loans on a higher interest rate. This means that the problem of adverse selection is more severe on a higher interest rate and because of that severity, the lenders are unable to lend and the credit rationing starts. Let's see what the monetary policy can do here. And how the transmission channel works in the credit rationing. So initially, we start from there that the monetary policy has changed its instrument, the real interest rate has decreased. The real interest rate that is less, then there is more risk of borrowing on a high interest rate. That is, the risk that the firms take tends to take loans on a high interest rate. So when the real interest rate has decreased in the market, then less risky projects will also start borrowing. Such firms will also borrow, which have less risky projects. This means less risk of borrowing increases. And the problem of adverse selection decreases. This means overall lending increases, investment increases, and ultimately aggregate demand increases. So this means, where does this channel come from? Risk versus less risk of borrowing. Or the investment in risky projects versus less risky projects works through this channel. Thank you.


Hello friends welcome back to another episode here on the channel I hope you're all doing great and for anyone new to the channel my name is Lee also known as Osiris and in today's episode as always we are going to be continuing on with our VGC series aid content today playing a take of my own on the common lap dog team which is Lapras and Zassian so we're going to feature a couple of Zassian teams this week this is going to be the first one to kick us off with and it's an archetype that we probably all know about but it's a very interesting one as well you've obviously got the lapras going to be the main kind of gmax a dynamax pokemon on the team that supports everything else with that aurora veil support that it brings with its gmax resonance and then you've got Zassian that doesn't rely so heavily on that gmax dynamax ability because it can't and then really does thrive on that screen support we've got the substitute set in here and then we've got some interesting picks alongside it you commonly see things like Incinero played with Lapras we haven't went for that today we've kind of opted for a Rotom Heat we've got the landerus in there gives us a bit of stability against some of the problematic electric type electric type attackers and Amungus with the redirection really helps us out a bunch and the odd pick of the team of course is that Umbrian Umbrian something that a lot of people have been kind of hyping up in this format it's had a lot of murmurings about it and it's something that I do love anyway so it's really nice to kind of incorporate it into this team and see how it performs today as always we'll have a couple of games of the team there is a poker piss down below in the description if you want to check that out and if you stick around till the end of the episode then I will be throwing a rental code up for this team so you can try it out for yourselves on the rank ladder so without further ado friends let's jump into our first match of today first up today we have Marcus playing a team of Mewtwo stack attacker in DD, Cinderace Grimsnull and Thunderace Incarnate so this looks spicy this team you've got the very fast mode with the Mewtwo obviously does get trick room as well to kind of support that slow end of the team with the stack attacker the indeed that you're going to see there the redirection trick room setup it can be a bit problematic for us Cinderace as well you know going to be on that kind of faster side of the spectrum Grimsnull with the screen support kind of matching ours with the Lapras and then the Thunderace so Thunderace coming in here not something that we particularly want to see but you know that you're always going to have a bad match up with whatever team you play or a particular mom that gives you a little bit of trouble um okay Zassian is great if we can get rid of this Cinderace now I think we definitely go Lapras then one definitely go Lapras I mean Umbrian's not bad here the only issue is like I don't want to lead Landerous just because I feel hmm we're there we're there we're there we're there we're there Umbrian's not bad I think probably yeah the reason I don't want to lead Landerous is because I don't want to proc the Defiant ability if we see it on the Thunderous bring I think I've got to bring Landerous and not Zassian here which is kind of interesting Zassian would do an amazing job in this match but we're not bringing it so we're going to see how we get on this first on a course so we're going to see Mewtwo and Indeedy come up from my opponent as they lead with that get that psychic terrain set up so the Umbrian in the hindsight a really good lead here because it gives us a quite a decent advantage turn one because we can't go for that turn one snarl we've got to watch out for potentially Thunderace coming in though that's the big problem but I mean what's probably going to stay on the field like really we resonance into Mewtwo and we snarl the problem would be it's not so much of a problem to be honest because even if Thunderous comes in right and we proc it they're probably going to target down the Lapras which gives us the kind of the opening with with Umbrian to kind of go for that foul play if we want to if you can get the resonance on to Mewtwo we'll do some decent damage to it now got to be a bit wary of course about Mewtwo maxing here but it doesn't look like it's going to this turn you just see the follow me come out from the Indeedy so kind of worry what's Mewtwo going to do nasty plot there we go okay love to see it love to see it both the screen support up Umbrian helping out with the the snarls thankfully we didn't miss the Mewtwo because that's the one target here we don't want to be missing we're not in too bad a spot I guess so we'll see we get the resonance off which is always useful I'm surprised we didn't see the Thunderous here you know with the inclusion of Lapras with Landerous that we've got obviously alongside the Lapras it would make a lot more sense for my opponent to go down that route let's get the Geyser up into Mewtwo and to be just foul play Mewtwo I think we probably just want to snarl again to be honest just to reduce the the special attack boost down to at least neutral I think on nasty plot again they're just continually nasty plotting just to make sure that they get to that plus two so hopefully Umbrian has his goggles on and you can hit this snarl here Indeedy avoiding again every time what's with that Indeedy it's got like bright powder or something maybe it has some Mewtwo on plus two but we're still doing enough kind of enough chip damage to it along the way to kind of keep it at least a little bit in check because if it goes for another nasty plot this next turn they haven't got the redirection we've got the rain up now to boost these max geysers which is always useful another thing I would be a little bit worried about here would be the thunderous coming in of course but then we do have the option to just nuke it with a G max resonance if it does come onto the field it's going to be a grim snarl okay grim snarl well fake out it's not really an issue for us they're going to have to put the screens up I think do they go for another nasty plot because if they do we could catch the them out with a foul play here which would probably pick up the knockout if they don't max which they're not going to need to protect it okay they just want to stall out our turns what's this grim snarl gonna go for yeah the light screen okay that's fine fine fine fine this is where Zassian would be like the player to come in wouldn't it you know but it just felt like you know we needed we needed lander us we need the rotom heat I think the umbran is going to be a big kind of star of the show here to help us against this Mewtwo for sure um I'm probably going to see a spirit break from the grim snarl this next turn to reduce the attack power on lapras I'm kind of tempted to go for a thunder because if we can get a cheeky paralysis on the Mewtwo then that helps us out so much um and I think they're going to max here you know I really do I think now oh wow they're not maxing huh they're just not wanting to I think they're going to just sit on it and preserve it still there's a lot of damage isn't it I'll get the snarl put it down to minus one thunder we need it to paralyze the Mewtwo that would be that would be massively useful for us spirit break onto umbran wouldn't be ideal either um a Mewtwo revealing there's a citrus berry which is interesting it's a it's an interesting uh oh foul play okay well that's not going to do too much now the extended force is going to be able to pick up the knockout onto uh lapras this next turn which isn't ideal get the paralysis though which is exactly what we want um and I think we protect and now we foul play the Mewtwo because it will out speed us still and it will pick up the knockout onto lapras so we can try and preserve lapras uh it just gives us a little bit more flexibility with switching round obviously my opponent's still got the ability to um to max as well but um expanding force like a foul player will take it down here no doubt Mewtwo is paralyzed which is kind of fortunate for us but that's what we're fishing for you know and the foul player umbran just dealing with it so easily you know I'm not really worried about it and the the grim snarl we know he's got foul play so it's very unlikely that it's got spirit break so umbran sitting in a phenomenal spot here psychic terrain now disappearing from the field so that grim snarl if it's got access to anything like thunder wave it will be able to utilize it cinderace there we go that's what we wanted the lander is for isn't it that is what we wanted the lander for um hmm it's got hydro pump hydro pump and um let's bring it in lander here get that intimidate because cinderace is going to be the pokemon that max is 100 percent um we've got two targets on the field right now that are like you know easy for them to press the uh the max knuckle button um get those attack boosts so we kind of need to preserve lander is uh to the point where we are utilizing these intimidates in now in now in now until you can potentially stall out these um max turns from cinderace cinderace still a very good pokemon you know and that the fact that it's g max helps us out a bunch because they're not going to be able to manipulate the weather or change it um because that g max move does not give them the sun reflect coming out from the grim snarl okay okay gonna see go off to the umber and go on g max fireball i'm gonna take us down nope i'm gonna take her it's not life or but wow we get so much damage onto it okay and the rain does stop which is a little bit unfortunate because now we're gonna have to take those full power um attacks but i think what we could potentially do is just protect protect lapras and then switch into rautum yeah there's a thing is once we get rid of the cinderace here you like you look at this now you say the cinderace goes down grim snarl's got no way to deal with umbrion and we still got a bunch of pokemon that we can have at our disposal to kind of help clean this one up as well so airstream coming out into rautum i would imagine no into lapras and we do go down but i kind of expected that you know and the crit coming out hopefully we don't see a foul play here like a foul play is still gonna like it's not gonna do a massive chunk of damage but it's still gonna chip us down although i don't really know what to other to expect from the grim snarl so that's probably gonna be it isn't it it's not really got another option to click and not doing too much of the rautum thankfully as we are able to get our lander us in and put this cinderace down at minus two which is a big thing and we don't want to see these max knuckles come out that's the big thing for us um so i think we could probably we're gonna see an airstream again maybe because we could we could earthquake and we could thunderbolt and that kind of covers bases so if they airstream again you know they max knuckle now which is fine they're gonna go into the rautum but we're gonna land our earthquake which that and thunderbolt should be enough to get there wow it does so much damage is that a crit has to be a crit yeah shoo dang man like that should not be doing as much damage as it's just done but there we go poor rautum managing to hang on thankfully uh proctor citrus berry which allows to take a foul play we'll get the earthquake i don't suppose this will be enough to get the cinderace but like i say the thunderbolt on top of this will be enough we know we're not going to go down to a foul play from the grim snarl um yeah and that will be enough to take down the cinderace and kind of lock up the game for us from here uh we've lost the lapras but at this point lapras kind of did the job that i need to and i guess in some ways you know we're not bringing the zas in here it's a good example to say the team can kind of function well without the restricted um just with the the support that we've got you know anyway so uh i don't think we need to boost up we can just double tap into it earthquake thunderbolt and there's the cancellation but very good game to mark us and um and i swear for us to kick off today of course so we will um swiftly move on hopefully our next one we'll be able to get this acid in i'm pretty sure we will be able to and we'll uh we'll quickly jump into our next upon of the episode next up today we have a toracian mammoth swine tornadoes drake vish barathon and ho teams so very interesting team again looks very cool getting all the cool teams uh opposing teams today what's going on here we got tailwind support immediately jumps out at me from the tornado supporting things like drake vish which would be very very threatening in a tailwind environment um you know the whole all appreciates it as well as well as the mammoth swine and the the toracian kind of trying to dig out is there a beat-up user in this team you know the risen brutal swing is on tornadoes so that could be used in conjunction with the the toracian there to proc the defa in uh justified ability so something that we need to keep in mind um there's plenty on my opponent's team to give lapis a hard time as well so we need to kind of be careful around that we do have water absorbed though uh which is probably the preferred kind of nature uh yeah no ability ability there we go get my head on uh against like in this format anyway so we'll go lapis i think we'll definitely bring zassian in this one we need to protect uh a bunch of things uh i think we've got lander us we'll go zassian and we will go we've run out of time i think we wrote some heat here it's probably a really good shout you know get rid of the toracian wrote him he has a great time in this matchup so we'll see how we go yeah my brain doesn't feel like it's working that well today um i had a really busy weekend uh just doing stuff we had stuff to do in the house and around the house just tidy it up and things like that so i was out actually hacking down a um bush yesterday and i like i don't know if anyone's noticed but i'm bringing attention to it now so you definitely will notice it my eye is like tiny yesterday i thought i blinded myself literally no joke i literally had to go to bed early last night i could eat i couldn't even open my eye like five hours after it happened i got whipped in the eye like right on the eye when i was up a ladder by a huge branch and it was the most painful thing ever but thankfully it's it feels better today but it's still a bit like it feels like i've been punching the eye not that i have been punching the eye but you know um anyway let's see uh oh i'm tornadoes what are we looking at the intimidates great here of course i see when we've got to watch out for uh we probably want to get our screens up as soon as possible so we'll go for that resonance into the tornadoes we want to remove uh landers from the field because we don't want to take an icy wind we don't want to take too much damage you want to preserve that intimidate for later on in the game especially because there's so many kind of pivotal big um physical attackers in my opponent's team so preserving that makes a lot of sense uh getting the right amount here obviously resists everything that my opponent can kind of throw out at us um so it makes a lot of sense to get it onto the field stop pressure on my opponent a little bit with things like nasty plotting things like that if we can get those up we've got to keep in mind though that tornadoes those have torn so do we want to waste the turn nasty plotting do we want to just try and pressure my opponent a little bit whilst we've got the opportunity to but lapras here because it's just so bulky you know i don't feel like we've got any we're not in any danger of getting knocked out turn one so what's the security you've got with lapras you always got that security with it it's why it's such a good kind of pokemon to fall back on why we've seen it do so well in like every single series and sword and shield so far and i don't see kind of changing as we go forward maybe if you get too restricted so there's the icy wind our speed's been reduced um we're going to see an airstream so they're just concentrating on that speed control and rotten taking that pretty well considering uh hot is an absolute monster you know the screen support here is going to be pivotal for us going forward because it just allows us to kind of really concentrate down on that hot all the next few turns um yeah and i mean getting rid of that tornado this is going to be useful is it sashed is it sashed i can't see there's a sash yeah so tornadoes sticking around sticking around we'll probably want to get rid of that the next turn because we don't want to allow it to uh to have the option for like a late game uh late game speed control at least anyway so we'll go for the max geyser and i think just a thunderbolt into tornadoes the issue would be for me right now is does that hot all have uh access to a weakness policy because if it does that would be bad so max flare coming out that's fine i'm going to be able to get the rain up which is always useful um and the thing to start thinking about now is does drakovish come in from the back because that wouldn't be good that would not be good for us one little bit um but i mean lapras isn't really threatened by a tornado you know um or does to racky and come in to racky is the other one to racky and i kind of prefer to say i think it's a bit of an easier one to deal with in this situation because then we've got the liner is switching you know we are just seeing leftovers on that hot all so that's fine um we're kind of forcing my opponent to almost go for the max flare the next turn as well so they're not going to be able to go for further speed control because if they want to get rid of the rain yeah seeing that and we'll probably want to go after yeah what we've got in the back where is that seeing need to stall out these these tailwind turns we need to kind of concentrate down on to the the drakovish uh max lightning is useful probably just protect the rotom here and it means we end up with no uh rain up okay then max guarding that's fine though you know i don't mind not having oh well we're going to keep the rain up because i'm max guarding psychic fangs go on for the wrong target there but you know you have to keep in mind that that is an option for my opponent going forward get the max lightning into the drakovish which is really useful and now with the um the the terrain up we've got that extra boost and we've got um what was i going to say we've got the extra boost with the terrain for thunder which will help we're not maxed anymore though um but we are likely to to lose our screens this turn with a psychic fang because that's what that that's what they're locked into isn't it they're locked into you'd imagine they are scarfed so i feel like it's probably quite safe to switch in landriss right now and just go for a thunder into the drakovish that should remove it right it should do the intimidate will help a bit oh sub sub hot oh very nice love to see it love to see it psychic fans coming out to break that screen that's fine yeah doing decent ish damage aurorville does wear off it's life orb as well wow okay it's a nice call this should be enough though with the terrain boost to take it down yep and now we just got the whole lot to deal with it is minus two so we don't need to worry too much about it's kind of damage output right now we still got rotom in the back that can kind of come in and do some work for us what's going on with my fringe i'm trying to sort it out here and it's just like no it's not long till the UK's hairdressers and stuff are open back up though so that's always a positive terakian coming in not brilliant for us um but zassian not a bad player come in here you know it really isn't because we can probably i think yeah protect protect brings zassian in i just the problem with bringing zassian now is if we take a sacred fire we yeah we've got the rain up obviously that'll help us out a bunch but at the same time we don't really want to get burned and the horror probably will outspeed us when because they got the the plus one depends how they've been trained though you know in my mind they're probably a like a lot bulkier because the leftovers are substitute probably got roost now they haven't got roost have they what they've got calm mind what what is this horror this is a special horror these what are we seeing friends um but we've got a nice check for the the terakian now you know uh so we can we can go the behemoth blade into terakian and then we can go for a let's just go for a thunder into horror it's the more reliable attack right now um and let's hope that zassian doesn't get burned we could go for a substitute here as well of course that's definitely an option but i think just trying to get the terakian here uh will be useful as long as it's not sashed sashed will make things a lot more difficult for us of course oh it's scarfed no the tailwind still up what am i talking about what am i talking about we needed to protect there switch in landeris yeah lame throw up plus one in the rain can we take it we should do yeah we just just about just about okay pay attention to your opposing tailwind trick room turns people that's a good example but zassian trained pretty well so we get away with it we'll get the thunder into the um the horror there's no way that crit mattered no way no way uh and this will break the sub but uh it gets a bit more tricky to deal with this with calm mind you know we're kind of relying a little bit more on something like landeris um which definitely gets trickier for sure uh the rain does stop now so that horror uh it's gonna have it's just gonna keep subbing isn't it we need to hit it with a hydro pump i think there's probably better going for thunder because the terrain's up so we can continue to get that boost just if we miss it uh let's get the landeris really isn't going to help us at all here because it's special so the intimidated drops onto it aren't really going to be doing anything has to sub here i'll go after zassian maybe yeah yeah okay wow jeez that's nuts that that is nuts damage that is actually nuts you know and we miss we miss we pay the price we can't afford to um we cannot afford to nasty plot up either i don't think i don't know if we're gonna be able to beat this whole all you know i feel uh is the terrain just disappeared from us i think it has yeah okay let's just click that hydro pump button hydro pump lapis get your goggles on get your goggles on we're gonna have to thunderbolt hydro pump i don't this won't be enough to take it down especially when it's calm minding in front of us we're going to need landeris i don't know if we're going to be able to beat this you know because landeris is not going to be able to add speed this whole we need a cheeky paralysis that's what we need still does decent damage but i think lapis hits job lapis okay uh if it's got so it's got calm mind it's got flamethrower it's got um um air slash potentially i think a flamethrower will take down ho here wrote him here you know i really do but then again if oh they're subbing okay they're relying on us missing with hydro pump does this break the sub hopefully it does hopefully it does it just enough yeah okay that's fine yeah okay we're gonna be all right no come on come on lapis the one time that's two moves now we don't need this we don't need this this is always the issue with lapis when you aren't maxed the moves that you're kind of relying on when it is maxed are great but when you're when you're not it's just it's terrible we'll lose Rotom here oh we survived we survived 8 hp there we go and we've got it we've got it Rotom Rotom definitely being the MVP of today by a by a long shot it is putting more work than anything else in these two games today so credit to Rotom not a pokemon to sleep on very good game to my opponent and we pick up two wins so we'll jump over now friends and we'll get you the rental code for today's here we go friends here is the rental code for today's team i hope if you do try it out you have a lot of fun with it we've had some really good matches in today's episode i hope you have enjoyed them got something out of them i think like i said the Rotom being the MVP of today's episode how crazy was that special hot or in the last game we didn't really get to see too much of umbria and but in that first game obviously did a lot of work against the mute to indeed he kind of lead that would have been otherwise super threatening and we got to see the team kind of function without the sassy in which it's not always over-reliant on but when you do need to call on it it does do some work obviously shonard's bulk there and that last match taking the double up from the whole or and the track in just with a missed time tailwind uh you know from myself so that is the team hope you enjoy it hope you've enjoyed today's episode hope you all keep well stay safe and i'll see you all for another episode very soon so until then friends take care of yourselves and bye bye
