Hello and welcome to the Grand Line Review, your source for everything One Piece and today we have a review of chapter 996, Island of the Strongest.  But before we completely lose our minds, it's time for a swift round of Poneglyph puzzle party, very simple minigame the rules of which are as follows. Here we have three regular Poneglyphs, one of which is going to be upgraded into a road Poneglyph at random, and your job is to guess which Poneglyph it will be by selecting either A, B or C.  But here we go, choose your Poneglyph now and let's get ready to upgrade. Will it be A, B or C? And it turns out it's B. If you selected either A or C then you need to hit that road subscribe button right now and say hi in the comments below if you are a new member of the Grand Fleet.  Now if you're a new or casual One Piece fan this statement might not quite hit you as hard as it should, but the dawn of the world is a vaguely defined event that both the Mink tribe and the Kozuki clan have been waiting for for centuries on end. It's an event that could be something as simple as maybe opening the borders of Wano or more than likely something far more profound like overthrowing the world government and creating a new age for the planet. I and most people are much more in the camp of the second when it comes to this thinking, but it was a concept mainly delivered to us by one Jaguar Mink, Mr. Pedro on Hawkeek Island, except very interestingly he stated that he had a strong suspicion that it would be Luffy and his friends who would guide us to the dawn of the world. So we actually have a bit of conflicting information here with Yamato, which to be fair I guess Yamato has access to information that we as readers could only dream of primarily through the vessel of Odin's journal. And if Yamato says that Momonosuke is going to be the one to perform his feat, then I really have no reason whatsoever to doubt that. Although this isn't to say that Pedro was necessarily wrong because who's to say that Momo alone will be charged with his task. It might be Momonosuke and Luffy for example. So both Pedro and Yamato could be right. It's just, you know, a pretty massive development because it implies that Momonosuke is going to be a figure whose relevance goes far beyond that of the Wanoak. And as much as I really don't want to be one of those people right now, it may even signal his joining the crew. If not permanently, then temporarily. Like how Odin traveled with the Roger pirates or something like that. And I really don't think this is jumping the gun because Yamato's words are not to be understated. If this is indeed true, then Momonosuke, like Luffy and like Shirohoshi is now a character of supreme magnitude going forward. Unless Yamato is wrong and misinterpreted something, but I doubt that. Now, before all of this, we had another tantalizing mini revelation, which is not one of the two I was referring to in the intro, but there was some kind of quite terrifying hint of Yamato's inevitably Zoan related abilities. There was this fairly small and understated panel with a close-up on Yamato's teeth as if he was preparing to do a transform right before Frankie ran in and quite frankly, ruined the mood. So let the speculation begin. Is Yamato going to be a dragon like Papakaito? Will Yamato be another miscellaneous dinosaur ancient Zoan? Or will we see an entirely different thing altogether? In terms of being a dragon, there's an interesting possibility that Yamato is actually a natural dragon. Much like the idea that Kaito is a dragon who ate an only related devil fruit, which is still always weird to think about. We are so, so deep into Wano and we still have no confirmation on exactly what Kaito is, not even so much as a devil fruit name. But this sort of situation may very well be why this information is hidden. It would be kind of cool if they were both dragons because with Momonosuke, they would then make a trio of dragon people in existence. But this is a criminally underrated moment of chapter 996, but to be fair, it is overshadowed by ever so much. To complete this section, though, I really like that Yamato recognized Frankie or more accurately General Frankie, which is important because General Frankie is what's on Frankie's bounty poster. So Yamato more than likely would not have recognized just regular old Frankie, which is a piece of consistency there that I really love. One piece is so, so good at small details like that. And the whole situation kind of reminds me of Dressrosa, where we got to see Bartola Mayer recognizing all the straw hats, except Yamato is a lot less fan boyish. But in the end, it looks like we've done something of a swap. It's now looking like Frankie is being left to deal with Sasaki, whilst Yamato absolutely wrecked Harcher, which is a scenario I'm quite on board with. Even if it doesn't work out too well, I would love to see Frankie take on a Toby Roper member because Giant Cyborg versus Big Dinosaur is a fight that nobody can deny a desire for. Moving along now though, Trafalgar Lord is my other main focus of this chapter. And really it's been a while since he's had some real centerpiece time. But we have this quite cool scene of him discovering a ponyglyph in a very well drawn room. I really like the lines of this room. You absolutely cannot go wrong with basic patterns of vertical and horizontal with some depth seemingly extending into eternity. But this ponyglyph, eh? It's kind of understated, but this is our second big revelation of the chapter. Although I think we may have seen so many of these by now that they might have lost their effect, but these stones are super, super rare. Even if this wasn't quite the one we were looking for, which also probably contributes greatly to that underwhelming feeling because we have lore looking at it and going, eh, this isn't really what I wanted. I want the red one. But I think that makes this the 14th ponyglyph that we've actually seen in the series. However, we do know the location of at least one other which is on one or no less because Brooke managed to find one underground in Orteez Castle, although he stated that it was also not a road to ponyglyph. And so as a brief recap, this now makes three ponyglyphs on one or one of which we have yet to find, which coincidentally or not, is the exact same number of ponyglyphs that were present on Holcake Island. One road ponyglyph and two regular ponyglyphs, which now come to think of it, we never found out what was on those ponyglyphs, did we? Robin wasn't on Holcake Island and as soon as we got to Wano, it was straight into action. So I think that by the end of Wano, we might be in for some sort of huge info dump coming directly from Robin because excluding the road ponyglyphs, we now have four stones that she has not read, which is pretty cool and I'm very much looking forward to that. But just on Robin, her flashback with Law was also quite nice to see. I guess, more accurately, Law's flashback with her, it doesn't matter, either way. It didn't quite hit me at first, but this shows Robin prior to her Wano costume incarnation. And there was something very nostalgic about that because this is the style of Robin that we haven't seen since the end of Zo, which, just to put that into some perspective, the last chapter of Zo was published in April, 2016. And so that immediately explained to me why seeing Robin like this felt so nostalgic because it was years and years and years ago. It was also great to see Law and Robin coming together to share what information they have and also just having this renewed focus on Law in general. After Dressroser, I've had this distinct feeling that Law was more or less done in terms of grand relevance, despite the fact that Law is a D and the ultimate ability of the Opioopinomi still has yet to be performed. But it was just the way he was instantly cast aside into a supporting character role, which has been most of his Wano CV. To be fair though, that's also been most of the straw hats, but here we have Law contemplating his inevitability and it's actually very in keeping with the other major development of the chapter. Flagging both Momonosuke and Law here very much speaks to the greater end game of One Piece, which is also nice because I don't think Oda gets enough credit for this, but generally One Piece chapters have a common theme that is explored within those 15 to 18 pages. And in this case, that thread is focused mostly on the meta narrative, looking forward into the future directly from the chaos of today. With that said, there was still quite a bit of progress and some nice catch-ups for the Onigashima raid all around in 996, and we did pick up exactly where 995 left off with Tama rescuing Usopponami. And very vague explanations were given to how Tama happens to be here along with Komainu and Hihimaru.  However, given that an entire army of samurai managed to do exactly the same thing, I can probably let this one go. Watching Hihimaru face off against page one was quite the sight though, actually, and it further reinforces the focus I have on Tama. Because long, long ago, Hihimaru was actually the character who Tama initially tamed. So thoughts spring to mind if Tama just gradually building her own army during the course of the raid, One Piece of Dango at a time. And elsewhere on Onigashima, Kid and Killer got about a page and a half to themselves, which is quite rare. What's more is that it was mostly comedy-centric as well. We have Kid building up this gigantic massive metal and it was very reminiscent of Luffy, actually. Like I can picture he and Zora running in a similar manner to Kid and Killer, which is quite endearing. In terms of location, Kid and Killer seemed to be a whole floor above Luffy, Jinbei, and Sanji at the moment. So they've definitely been busy and I wonder if Kid's Chaos is ultimately going to make it easier for Luffy's group to progress. And as for that, this chapter actually ends in what I think is quite a weak way, considering everything else that happened in 996 with what basically seems to be Sanji's perverted senses kicking into gear. Because I suppose we do know at this point that Sanji kind of possesses the voice of all things if the voice of all things was exclusively the voice of all attractive women things. Something which he demonstrated on Pankazza to very cool effect, actually. I just, oh, I don't know. I do question ending the chapter with this moment. Like of all of the full stops Oda could have chosen, this is the one. I think you could have very easily swapped this scene with the Yamato one and had the very final panel of 996 be Yamato revealing Momonosuke's destiny. If Oda did that, this would easily be an internet destroying chapter because most of it would lead you into a false sense of fun and then it would just drop that revelation bomb leaving you to stew on that for a whole week. Instead, the really amazing stuff was all front loaded into the chapter, which was all then watered down by the ending. And I don't know, I just don't think that comedic endings to chapters work very well reading one piece weekly. And actually, I don't think it works particularly well reading them in volumes either, at least not in this kind of stage of an arc. To be clear though, I have no problem with the situation in general. I mean, if Sanji is going to make a comedic full of himself, then that's what I expect. It was just a weird choice to cap off the chapter because that final image is meant to be one that stays with the readers all throughout the next week because it is the very last thing they see. Like Kikuzan being sliced off at the end of chapter 993 is a perfect example. Now let's construct an alternate version of that chapter and imagine that Kikuzan being cut off happened right at the beginning of 993. And our final image of the chapter was Luffy and Sanji meeting Brescola guerrilla fist man. As a whole, the chapter probably wouldn't quite land in the same way. And I can't help it feel like that's what's happened here. But something else I haven't mentioned yet is that 996 presented us with a very interesting scene featuring Kaido and the vassals. It was about a page and a half long, completely devoid of dialogue. And if I had to condense what it expressed into one word, that word would probably be brutality. The vassals are certainly not in a good way, but this gives rise to my favorite panel of the chapter which is this close-up of Kaido. I was kind of in shock when I saw it and I wasn't quite sure why at first, but it did just strike me as very different. And I think that's because when Kaido is usually depicted, Oda goes to some pretty great lengths to emphasize his size and physique. To present him as intimidatingly as possible as a main antagonist should be. And yes, Kaido does have close-ups, but usually only when delivering dialogue. Whereas this was a very intimate shot. No words whatsoever and a lot of detail invested into shading and pure facial expression. But I feel like it says all it needs to and acts as a good prologue to the ensuing brutal mess that we see. It was definitely the emotionally lowest point of the chapter and quite starkly contrasted as well because elsewhere things are going fairly well. Even with Zora's group facing Queen's Ice Plague, there's a lot of comedy to be had, not on the rooftop though. On the rooftop, there is only pain. And also speaking of the rooftop, we have one big mother currently making her way up there. I'm not entirely sure why or even sure at all. None of her very limited goals currently coincide with either Kaido or the vassals, at least none that I'm aware of. But then again, maybe it's just an uncharacteristically intelligent move. Say for example, instead of chasing Luffy, Big Mom is just going to go where she knows that Luffy will be or something like that, but probably not. It is very interesting though, interesting and terrifying. You know just the thought of Luffy reaching that rooftop and staring up at not just one, but two emperors of the sea. That would be a pretty despairful yet pretty high way to end a future chapter, but that is not this week. And actually that pretty much does it for chapter 996. But what do you guys think?

This is Mises Weekends with your host, Jeff Deist. You do have a new book, Thomas Jefferson Revolutionary, A Radical Struggle to Remake America. There's libertarians who go either way on Jefferson.  Other people say, well, you know, he created, he helped create this constitution that we currently labor under now that seems so ill-libertarian. So tell us about the premise of your book and what you think about him. Well, first, Jefferson, every semester I teach introductory classes in American history at my university, and I always tell the students, okay, I know that you think Thomas Jefferson wrote the Constitution, and he wrote the Bill of Rights, but he didn't, he didn't have anything to do with it. He was in France. However, you're going to tell me on the final that he wrote the Constitution, and then every semester, he wrote the Constitution. Thomas Jefferson did not write the Constitution or have anything to do with writing the Constitution. In fact, we don't even know that he had anything to do with writing the 12th Amendment, which was actually authored by Republicans in Congress while he was president. But my previous book, the one immediately before this one, this is actually my fifth book, the one immediately before this one was a biography of Jefferson's best friend in the world and closest political ally, James Madison. And I've had several people tell me that after reading that book, they didn't know whether I liked Madison, which I take as a compliment. The setting temptation of people who write about particular individuals is either to attack them or to lob them, and I try to do neither. So my book about Jefferson is not about why you should lob him or why you should hate him. It's about his career as a radical, he was a truly radical constitutional political reformer, the side in which he also was responsible for several other initiatives that still affect us every day. So for example, those decimal coins in your pocket, the idea that we should have a decimal coinage system was Jefferson's idea. In fact, America was the first country in the world that ever had a decimal coinage system. Now virtually every country has, maybe actually every country has a decimal coinage system, Jefferson's idea. Another idea that he had was that American public government buildings ought to be based on Greek and Roman examples. This had not been true during the colonial period. Jefferson designed the capital of Virginia, which he patterned on a Greek temple that he found in the South of France. And when he was present, when he was, I'm sorry, when he was Secretary of State, he was involved in laying out the, and ultimately when he was president, he was involved in laying out the design for the federal capital. So there's, he also was the fellow who had the idea of moving the capital of Virginia from Williamsburg to Richmond. But there are various other slight, kind of one-off reforms like that that he was responsible for. Maybe the most important achievement that he had at a stroke was that he was the one who had the idea that immediately after the revolution began of abolishing Virginia's feudal land tenures. So neither glazing over as I say that, but under English law at the time the revolution began, if a man died and had a son, his oldest, or if he had more than one child, his oldest son inherited his entire estate. That was called bright primogeniture. There also was a principle called entail, which was that an estate could not be divided by its current owner. So if you're the oldest son and you inherit 3,000 acres and they're entailed, you cannot during your lifetime sell them. And then if you have 12 sons, you can't decide, you know, the first one's a drunk, the second one's a waste roll. I'm going to give this stuff to the third one, no. We had to go to the first one. So one effect of this was that the whole body of your land holding would remain in that one pair of hands generation after generation. A historian named Holly Brewer calculated about two decades ago now that at the time the revolution began, about two-thirds of today's state of Virginia was owned by about 85 families. So in other words, about two-thirds of today's state of Virginia only being owned by 85 families means that those 85 families owned on average 300 square miles each of Virginia. So Jefferson's abolition of primal geniture and entail was absolutely essential to having a Republican society. Once that happened in 1776 and 7, these states began to break up and by the time Jefferson died, there were very few of these largest states left. And actually, maybe I should give you a little more of an idea, 300 square miles. My state of Connecticut has eight counties. 300 square miles is about half of the Connecticut county. So that means that 16 of these families would have owned an area of the entire state of today's Connecticut. These people were just fabulously wealthy. And the main part of the book is about the long-running efforts that Jefferson made. So for example, an effort on behalf of freedom of conscience, which after the two Washingtonian principles that the generals are subordinate to the civilians and the chief executive is going to retire, freedom of conscience is perhaps our most important constitutional principle. And Jefferson was the chief person who was responsible for making it one of our most important constitutional principles. So I tell the story of his doing that in one chapter of the book. Another chapter of the book, the main chapter of the book, the longest one, is about federalism. For Jefferson, federalism was the principle that should be understood to underlie the British imperial constitution. And he based his argument against the king's intervention, the parliament's intervention in North America in the 1760s and the 1770s on a claim that Virginia and other colonies each had a right to local self-government and their only legitimate tie to Britain was through the king. They had a common king. They didn't have a common parliament. They had only a common king after independence, which by the way, the Declaration of Independence is based on this idea, the federalism too. You see the operative section says these colonies that aren't of right ought to be free and independent states. That is not one nation separate states than a federal relationship. During the confederation period, Jefferson continued to insist on this principle of only limited allocation of authority to a center. And when the federal constitution was created, Jefferson repeatedly found himself in a position of having to concoct ways that the states could resist encroachments by the federal government into state reserve authority. In other words, his attitude about this general question didn't change from the imperial situation to the confederation to the U.S. Constitution. He always thought of Virginia as, and this is what he called it, my country, right? Even when he was president at one point, he wrote a document in which he referred to the federal government as, quote, our foreign government. Just think about that. So he became famous in 1774 by arguing for this principle, and he still was arguing for it in 1825 right before he died. There are a couple of chapters in the book about demographic issues, what to do about slavery, what to do about the place of American Indians in American society. He had the idea that these people, like whites, were entitled to self-government. And so he had long, long careers kind of on parallel tracks of trying to resolve these issues of what to do about slavery and what to do about the place of Indians in North American society. And finally, last chapter of the book is about his idea that, well, if we have abolished these feudal land tenures, if we've broken up these lands as states, if we're not going to have this landed aristocracy to rely on to govern Virginia, if we're not going to have generation after generation of George Mason and Patrick Henry and George Washington and so on, then what are we going to have instead? And his solution was, well, the government, the state government, ought to establish a system in which each community had a local, what we would now call an elementary school, so that every free child, and that included in his language, he didn't say girl, but he said every child, so that included girls. In fact, he didn't say that doesn't include blacks, apparently it included blacks, and at one point he got a letter from a Quaker with former who was working on the idea of educating the slaves, and Jefferson said, well, there's no reason why that couldn't be inferred from the language of my bill for this purpose. But anyway, he thought that each community ought to have a three-year public primary school, and then at the end of those three years, the best students from each community ought to be selected to be sent at public expense to a regional intermediate-level school for three years. And finally, the best of those students ought to be selected each year to go on to William & Mary. So if you're wealthy, you can still send your kids to the middle school and to William & Mary if you wanted to, but this was going to enable people beyond the few rich to send their kids to William & Mary, and actually in Colonial Virginia there was no public education, there were no primary and secondary schools, and we think about half of Virginia men were literate when the revolution began. So Jefferson had this idea of taking advantage of what he thought was probably a kind of random distribution of intellectual gifts across the population by calling out the few most promising people and sending them on to William & Mary. Eventually, of course, he kind of found himself at loggerheads with people at William & Mary because William & Mary was dominated by Episcopalians and they had a classic curriculum based on the classical languages, and Jefferson thought, well, this is outmoded, and so he wanted to have thorough curricular reforms at William & Mary, but even as governor, when he was a member of the Board of Regents, he didn't get the kind of changes he wanted, so ultimately he persuaded the legislature to create the University of Virginia. Virginia now, of course, is the best public university in the country, but Jefferson's university had a far more effect than that. That is, today we think, well, of course, Virginia has UVA and Arkansas has the University of Arkansas and Hawaii has the University of Hawaii, but really what's happened is that all the other universities in the country are based today on UVA as Jefferson conceived of it. So, for example, when UVA opened in 1821, I think it was instruction there was not and the interaction between professors and students was not on the model of other colleges in the United States. If you were a student at Harvard in 1821, you would be given reading assignments, you would be expected to memorize extensive passages when you went for class meetings, if the professor called on you, you would be expected to stand up and recite what you had memorized. This is the way that grading was done, they would see how well you did in your recitation. Jefferson thought this was mindless and what should happen instead was that people should be given essay examinations. Besides that, he didn't want the curriculum to be based on classical languages, which he thought were kind of luxury, although he did love Greek and Latin, and when he was an old man he'd ride around his horse for three miles a day, he always carried his, he always carried his Plutarch in the original Greek in his pocket, but he didn't think that this was useful. So, Virginia was the first place where you could go and you could major in essentially anything you wanted. You could study any curriculum you liked and in fact, if you thought after a couple of years that you'd have enough school and you could leave if five years later you thought you needed a little more, you could come back to UVA so it was going to be kind of an open thing. And besides that the living arrangements at UVA were different from the way they worked in say English colleges or at Harvard at the time where you, or at William & Mary where you have a big building where all the students slept and then the professors would live somewhere else. Instead at UVA you had small houses for professors arranged around the central lawn and interspersed among the houses were living quarters for the students. Jefferson's idea was that the class meetings would be on the ground floor of a professor's house and so you'd have constant interaction among the students and professors, it would be he called it an academic village. It wouldn't be a hierarchical situation like what you'd have in Europe I could go on. This is the thing is it was just radically different from the old stilted, hierarchical completely impractical, really mindless kind of instruction that went on in every other college in the world at the time. In fact at Harvard, Jefferson was in correspondence in the 1820s with the professor at Harvard who decided he wanted to use UVA's instructional methods but they weren't actually adopted at Harvard until the 1850s. Besides that UVA was according to the president of Yale at the time was the only actual university in the country. UVA had the first medical professor in the country, they had a law school they had the whole suite of areas of instruction long before any other post-secondary institution in America could be called a university. There are many ways in which it was different and as I've been saying these things I'm sure you thought well I went to college and that's how we did of course and again Virginia was revolutionary in all these ways and Jefferson had a freakish role in creating UVA too not only did he conceive of it he chose the professors he was a fabulous architect he drew all the buildings he oversaw the construction and his friend James Madison chose the books for the library and I don't mean in general we need to get 300 books on French history no they chose actual titles Jefferson had his finger in every pie and it really was his baby in a way that no other college has ever anywhere been anyone's baby it's an amazing story why did he do this? well because again he thought if you're going to have a republic you wanted the most able child to be able to have the advantage of a good education so that even if his father were a poor illiterate backwoods person the society would have the advantage of that young man's talents and this was just radically egalitarian so I think people who say well Jefferson he's not worthy of our consideration or just mistaken I don't want to be understood as saying that I think he was without flaws but that's not what this book is about it's not a biography instead it's again it's a study of his radical statesmanship which in the book I call the most significant career radical statesmanship in American history it's got its effect on us every day and we're not going to have gays thrown off buildings we're not going to have honor killings we're not going to have people punished for their religion or have you know barrel bombs dropped on us for having a long political position and it's not solely Jefferson's legacy that that's true but again I think it's more his doing than anyone else's well ladies and gentlemen we'd be talking with professor Kevin Goodman his new book is called Thomas Jefferson revolutionary a radical struggle to remake America thanks so much for a fascinating discussion of all things constitutional ladies and gentlemen you have a great weekend subscribe to Mises weekends via iTunes U Stitcher and SoundCloud or listen on Mises.org and YouTube


History of science, the history of science is the study of the development of science and scientific knowledge, including both the natural and social sciences. The history of the arts and humanities is termed history of scholarship. Science is a body of empirical, theoretical, and practical knowledge about the natural world, produced by scientists who emphasize the observation, explanation, and prediction of real-world phenomena. Historiography of science, in contrast, studies the methods employed by historians of science. The English word scientist is relatively recent first coin by William Wewell in the 19th century. Previously, investigators of nature called themselves natural philosophers. While empirical investigations of the natural world have been described since classical antiquity, for example, by Thales and Aristotle and scientific method has been employed since the Middle Ages. For example, by IBM all Hatham and Roger Bacon modern science began to develop in the early modern period, and in particular, in the scientific revolution of 16th and 17th century Europe. Traditionally, historians of science have defined science sufficiently broadly to include those earlier inquiries. From the 18th century through late 20th century, the history of science, especially of the physical and biological sciences, was often presented as a progressive accumulation of knowledge, in which true theories replaced false beliefs. Some more recent historical interpretations, such as those of Thomas Kuhn, tend to portray the history of science in terms of competing paradigms or conceptual systems in a wider matrix of intellectual, cultural, economic and political trends. These interpretations, however, have met with opposition for they also portray history of science as an incoherent system of incommensurable paradigms, not leading to any scientific progress, but only to the illusion of progress.


Hello, it's Missy. Thank you for watching. For today's video, I thought it would be fun to share a half-up style for today's video. Like and subscribe, click that notification bell, and let's get started. I'm going to begin by dividing off a section of hair at the top of my head right behind the hairline. This is going to be about an inch or two wide and an inch deep. And then using an elastic, I'm going to tie off this section of hair. Then I'm going to divide off another section of hair directly behind the first section. And I'm going to combine the ends from the first ponytail in with the hair from the second section. Then using a clear elastic band, I'm going to tie all of the hair together so it sits a few inches back from the first elastic band. And then for the last section of the elastic braid, I'm going to divide off another section of hair from above both of my ears. I'm going to combine this hair with the ends from the second elastic band. And I'm going to take another elastic and tie all of the hair together so it sits along the top of my head right behind the other two elastic bands. And if you want, you can go back and pinch and pull on the hair in between the two elastics. The more you pull, the bigger the bubble will be creating more of a Mohawk style. Thank you so much for watching. Make sure to like and subscribe if you haven't already. Click that notification bell so you never miss any future videos. And I will see you next time.

The study aimed to explore end-user perspectives on the features, current use, and acceptance of nutrition and diet M-Health apps through a survey. The results showed that ease of use, free cost, and automatic readings of caloric and macronutrient content were the primary criteria for selecting such an app. An app was less likely to be selected if it incorrectly estimated portion size, calories, or nutrient content. Other important limitations included the use of a database that does not include local foods or that may omit major foods. The study provides insights into user needs that can benefit researchers developing tools for innovative dietary assessment and those assisting research on behavioral changes related to nutrition.

Hello, everyone. We have the winners of Visis Project Prizes 2013 in ITU studio. We have Mr. Abdullah Al-Rakadi from the Ministry of Health from the Sultanate of Amman. We have Dr. Khalid Alajmi from the Minister of Higher Education from Saudi Arabia, and we have Thomas Muleh, Deputy Head of Programs from Child Helpline International. My first question will go to the Ministry of Health from Sultanate of Amman. Could you please elaborate more about the health and child system? Thank you, Regina, and I would like to thank ITU for this hosting, and it is a lovely forum being conducted for years now. Ministry of Health is paying attention to eHealth, and in Amman we do have several applications which is help on improving health service in Amman. The big imprel is the health information management system, and part of that is child and mother health module, which is focus on improving the services for mothers from the day of pregnant until the delivery, then continues to the babies from zero till five years. This system is it gives the continuity of care for the mother during all the period of pregnancy and till the child of five years old. The system has several functions and several options such like alerting system electronically while the patient visiting the hospitals. It gives also SMS to notify patients on their appointments or reminding them before 48 hours of the appointments. It is really state of art and we are proud the system is being developed and designed within the boundary of Ministry of Health. So it is a national product. It is 100% purely made in Amman. Thank you very much, and the next question will go to the Ministry of Higher Education from Saudi Arabia. Dr. Khalid, what is the impact of the SAFIR program on the information society development? Thank you. Thank you for hosting me and thank you for ITU for this opportunity. Wonderful gathering. SAFIR program is a realization of a very ambitious vision in the country of Saudi Arabia kingdom. Of Saudi Arabia had put a plan, an ambitious plan to basically introduce and implement the concept of knowledge societies by the year 2020 and SAFIR program was one of them. The idea was basically to bring the offering of given scholarship for as many citizens as possible if they fulfill the eligibility criteria for getting enrolled into the scholarship program and to pursue their higher education studies in terms of either the undergrad level or the master level or the PhD levels. In any country that would basically provide the higher education levels that could fulfill the ambitious vision of the kingdom. Those generations of people as they evolve as they get educated and introduced to technology as well as the information and knowledge they will come back to the country and they will perform their duties to the transformation of the society, Saudi society into a knowledge society. Thank you very much Dr Khaled. The next question will go to Child Health Plan International to Thomas. Thomas, could you please elaborate more on Child Health Plan International? What kind of services Child Health International provides and what is the scope of this project? Pleasure. Thank you for having us. Child Health Plan International is a global network of Child Health Lines. We are representing organizations that provide services for children, active listening services but as well counseling services or referral services for children that should be accessible free of charge and anonymously in every country in the world. Currently we are having a membership of 173 organizations over 142 countries. So what we are doing as a global network is we provide networking opportunities for them but we as well go and take the information that children provide, the data and go to governments and policymakers and try to flag issues in child protection to them. Say like if there is a peak of calls on a certain topic in a certain country we would like to flag that to governments and say like we have to do something about that. At the same time we work and help our organizations, our membership to improve minimum quality standards and of course we interact a lot with the telecoms world because that is our natural partners. These help lines are accessible through phone, landline, mobile, SMS but as well the internet, online chat, social networks and so on and so forth and that's why we are extremely proud to be recognized with the price of the ITU. Thank you very much Thomas and the last question will go to all of you. What does it mean for you to win the price and we will start from Mr. Abdulal Rakadi. What does it mean? It means a challenge. We are proud that we have been awarded fourth time now. We have been awarded in United Nations twice in 2010 and last year. We have been awarded in National with His Majesty Award as a first rank for the E-Best Project and now we are in losses. It is really give us an opportunity to improve our service. It give us an opportunity to enhance the services. Always they are saying it is easy to high the high rank but how to sustain and how to stabilize that is the challenge. So from now we will start to work on improve our services and deliver a better service to the public. Thank you. Dr. Khaled. The winning of the WSAS prize means recognition as well as an incentive. It is a recognition of the effort that was put in place by the many Saudi agencies, government agencies to share the information and to exchange knowledge and to develop and improve the knowledge societies within the country of Saudi Arabia. It also means an incentive. An incentive for us in the Ministry of Higher Education to further develop our services and to reach out to as many constituents as possible in addition to an incentive for other government organizations within the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia and the region around the country to also compete and to try to reach out in the development of the information and knowledge society. Dr. Khaled Thomas. The WSAS project prize is a huge recognition of our work with the ITU in the last years. We have been engaged with the ITU since 2005. We have worked with study group 2 on harmonizing numbers for child helplines. As a result, 23 children in 23 countries within the EU can reach helplines through the same phone numbers. 12 countries in Africa can reach the child helpline service through 116 and 6 countries in southern Asia through 1098. So we have worked on this regional harmonization. It's a huge recognition of the children's rights to be heard, which is a right that is enshrined in the United Nations Convention on the Rights of Children. It's a big opportunity for us, but it's also a responsibility to keep on working hard with telecoms and with operators around the world to assist child helplines in providing these services. Usually, child helplines operate through toll-free numbers, which means at the end of the month, big phone bills to cover if you have big call volumes. And we work with telecoms and have to keep working with telecoms to partner with our members to waive these costs and provide free-of-cost access, not only for children, but as well the opportunity to free-of-cost operation of the service for the child helpline. Thank you very much, Thomas, and thank you very much to all of you. Thank you.


Hello and welcome to the session. In this session we discuss the following question which says P2R is a right triangle, right angle at Q. A circle is inscribed in it. The length of the two sides containing the right angle are 3 cm and 4 cm. Find the radius of the circle. We must recall one fact which says that the lengths of the tangents drawn from an external point to a circle are equal. This is the key idea to be used in this question. Let's see the solution now. Consider this figure. So here we are given that PQR is a right angled triangle where we have angle Q is equal to 90 degrees and we are given that the lengths of the two sides containing the right angle that is angle Q are 3 cm and 4 cm. So we take QR equal to 3 cm and PQ equal to 4 cm. It's also given that a circle is inscribed in the triangle. The circle touches the side PQ of triangle PQR at point A, the side QR at point B and side PR at point C and we have taken O to be the center of the circle. The F0 let the radius of the in circle be x cm. That is we have OA is equal to OB is equal to OC is equal to x cm. Now since we know that the tangent at any point of a circle is perpendicular to the radius through the point of contact. Therefore this angle that is angle OAQ is equal to angle OBQ is equal to 90 degrees. So obviously this angle would also be equal to 90 degrees that is angle AOB is also equal to 90 degrees. So in the figure OAQB all angles are of measure 90 degrees. So therefore we can say that OAQB is a parallelogram and thus opposite sides of parallelogram OAQB are equal. So this would mean that OA is equal to OB is equal to QB is equal to QA is equal to x cm. Now that it's given PQ equal to 4 cm and AQ or QA is equal to x cm. So this would mean that PA is equal to 4 minus x cm. Since from the figure we have that PA is equal to PQ minus AQ. Also we have QR is equal to 3 cm and QB is equal to x cm. Therefore VR is equal to 3 minus x cm. Since from the figure we have that VR is equal to QR minus QB. Now PA would be equal to PC equal to 4 minus x cm. Since they are the tangents drawn from the point P also VR would be equal to RC equal to 3 minus x cm. Since they are also the tangents drawn from the point R. Now from the figure we have PR is equal to PC plus RC. Now this PC is equal to 4 minus x plus RC which is 3 minus x. So we get PR is equal to 7 minus 2 x cm. So now in right triangle PQR we have PR square is equal to PQ square plus QR square by the Pythagoras theorem. So from here we get 7 minus 2 x the whole square is equal to 4 square plus 3 square. This gives us 49 minus 28x plus 4x square is equal to 16 plus 9. That is we get 4x square minus 28x plus 49 minus 25 is equal to 0. This gives us 4x square minus 28x plus 24 is equal to 0. This further gives us x square minus 7x plus 6 is equal to 0. Now splitting the middle term we get x square minus x minus 6x plus 6 is equal to 0. So from the first pair we take out x common inside the bracket we have x minus 1. From the second pair we take out minus 6 common inside the bracket we have x minus 1 this is equal to 0. So this gives us x minus 1 into x minus 6 is equal to 0. This gives us x minus 1 equal to 0 or x minus 6 equal to 0. That is we have x is equal to 1 or x is equal to 6. Now we cannot take x equal to 6 since if we take x equal to 6 this would mean that this AQ is also of measure 6 cm but this cannot be possible since PQ is of measure 4 cm and AQ is part of PQ. So this cannot be larger in length than PQ. So therefore neglecting x equal to 6 we get x is equal to 1 and we had assumed x to be the radius of the in circle. So we say radius of the in circle is equal to 1 cm. So this is our final answer. This completes the session. Hope you have understood the solution of this question.
