Hello, everybody, and welcome to Esso Terrigalana. My name is Bryce, of course, and I have Stephanie on the same screen with me. Hi. Little unpropped, it's a little tight back here, so we're trying to make it work. You will probably see this same setup with us tomorrow on the Dark Outpost because we are going to be coming on the Dark Outpost tomorrow, Tuesday with David Zublik because we are going to be talking about some of our experiences at Berry College in Rome. I did some teasers on my Twitter. So if you aren't following me on Twitter, go ahead and follow me on Twitter and Stephanie on Twitter to see some updates of our investigations here. I am also trying to remember to put them on Instagram, too, because I know not everybody has a Twitter, but I promise you if you don't have a Twitter, Twitter's fun, isn't it? It's interesting. I'm a late bloomer with Twitter, but I was too. Just do it. Just join Twitter. I mean, when I was just doing yoga, teaching my sort programs, I didn't have a Twitter because Twitter isn't really big for the yoga world. It was just Instagram. But now that I'm doing YouTube, I am loving a Twitter. It is really fun. So anyway, I also want to remind you guys to tomorrow being Tuesday. Normally, we have an installation of the Magdalen manuscript that will there will not be one tomorrow, just because I haven't had a chance to record the video for this week because we've been sweating all over Georgia. Basically, and causing all sorts of trouble. No, not really. But hopefully that will be back next week. There will be a Sophia Code on Wednesday, though. I did pre-record the Mother Mary section of the Sophia Code. So that will be up as well. So this is just going to be a slight little update from Stephanie and me. We're going to are going to pull some cards. Thank you guys all for your questions because we have limited time today. We're just going to do a quick video today and then we'll get to your questions that you asked on Twitter and on my community tab a little bit later on. But first, I want to ask Stephanie, you had a very unique experience driving into Atlanta. We were in separate cars. She was behind me and explain coming down 75 when you saw when you turn the corner and you saw the city outline. The moment I apologize. I sound like I have a sexy bedroom voice from a little bit of a sort of when I came into the city and I hit that city line. I literally started to blow my eyes out and I could not figure it out for the life of me. Like what is happening? It's not like I was I hadn't seen you yet. Like and I'm not like we just spent like four days.  And I have Bob and Weave on the interstate. She bobs and weaves. I'm a city driver. I'm just in the left lane doing 80. Okay, Bob and Weave. I never, the speed limit here is like awesome because I could actually like put the paddle to the metal kind of a thing. But yeah, you were bobbing and you were weaving and I was just straight going and my coffee. And so I came up into the city and I just like was like losing it. I'm like, what is wrong with me? And I had pulled cards on it. It was definitely past life stuff coming through which is probably why I'm not feeling well since I arrived in Atlanta because whatever past life stuff maybe karma I don't know is coming through me. I don't know. What's your overall feel of the city of Atlanta? Oh, I love it. And I'm not like I've been through. I've been in Boston. I've been to New York city. Hadn't stayed there like long and more like day trip kind of a thing. And of course like we haven't connected at Hartford like not that Hartford's bad or anything. Like there's a really nasty side of Hartford the North and Hartford. Like my grandma couldn't go visit her parents or anything in the cemetery because it's like a lot of drive-by pow-pows. Oh, that's here too. So like we you got to be very careful where you drive in Hartford. I just probably with any city but I mean that's my home state and nothing really exciting at Hartford. Maybe the couple museums or any, you know, that kind of stuff. But it's a very, very small city. I've gone through Worcester, Massachusetts, lots of torturian buildings there but nothing like skyscrapers or anything like that. We don't have skyscrapers in Connecticut. And this city has a really good vibe. Yeah, we're happy here. We're hashtag the city too busy to hate. Now with that being said we know that Atlanta is definitely a controller. We'll say city. We've got Coca-Cola's headquarters. Coca-Cola is from Georgia, from Atlanta. Its headquarters is here. There's a Delta's headquarters is here. I mean Atlanta is about half the size of New York. Her son was really cute because he was excited about seeing skyscrapers. He likes it. He likes it here. I've been purposely taking routes around town so that he would be able to drive through the sky. I've been purposely detouring us so he can actually drive through and see the tall buildings. I mean, I live right in the middle of the city. So we're like in walking distance. Like I think he was a little shocked about how much you walk in a city. Yeah, he was a little shocked about that. He needs to learn that. He needs to exercise regardless though. But he's a 15 year old. Yeah, I think that was... Well, I think he actually kind of like the first night we were here, we went to Peach Street Street which is the main street here. If you're familiar with Elton John, Elton John lives in Atlanta six months out of the year and one of his latest albums. He actually titled Peach Street Street. It's a long street that goes like straight through the city. And I'm in the midtown section and midtown is where there's a lot of social stuff, a lot of restaurants. And so I can literally just walk up the block and there's just, you know, a whole just offering a ton. Totally a lot of stuff. A lot of stuff. And so I think it kind of was kind of cool that we could just kind of like pop out and all of a sudden go out the door and you're there.  Yeah, my friend's park which I'm not gorgeous. I'm not doxing myself because there are like six million people in the city. When I say I'm by Pima Park is our central park and it's huge, it's huge park.  It's not doxing myself to say that, but Bonnie came down. The pole was at capacity at the park but we went to the fountain. That was fun. We were crazy white ladies throwing tarot cards at the fountain. Yep. I drove you by it guys. We went to Oakland Cemetery today. We're gonna put that footage up at some point. Probably one of my favorite highlights of this trip yet is that particular cemetery. I'd go back there and we're channeling on the board and the cards a little bit. That was interesting. Apparently we had some tall man following us in that particular journey. I think he was protecting us actually from another person. No, the Allen guy, I got Allen on the board was protecting us from the tall guy. Yeah. And we'll do a whole, I've got a bunch of footage from that that I'm gonna put together and we'll do a whole episode with the footage and just kind of talk through Oakland Cemetery. If you look on my playlist, I actually have already covered Oakland Cemetery. It was one of the first videos I did but I didn't get into any of the scandalous stuff that we'll probably get into more in our perception now since two years have passed and more information is available to us and we're a little bit more aware of maybe the truth. And so, Stephanie, do you believe, I don't know if we have pulled cards on this yet. Is Atlanta, Georgia, is it Atlantis? I think it's like a capital. Well, yeah, like the capital of it. Is that why they, because I've told you guys many times the original city was called Martha'sville and they did, we should probably even look at it in a different video. I know Mark Atwood has spoken about this. There's all these big cities in the world that have had these mysterious fires. London had it, Chicago had it, Atlanta had it as well. We're told that the fire was during the Civil War, that Sherman burned down the city. But now we got some information at Oakland Cemetery that changes that. So I, maybe when we do our full Oakland Cemetery, we could talk more about the Atlanta fire and why they actually burned the city down. Ooh. Yeah. Yep. It is the capital of Atlantis. Yeah, I've got the full with the Queen of Ones and the sun cards. The sun card is that yes. But also too, it was definitely a city of light. Like it was definitely a city for good. And then the full card, yeah, that's some sort of change. The witchcraft journey. Magic. Yeah. I mean, there's a lot of cabal symbolism. I shouldn't say that. Which is okay. My head is in the clouds right now. Oh, it had to surrender. The tennis swords had to surrender. So is this also, was this also according to the old maps we have? Oh, wow. Yeah. It's gonna become more emotionally balanced. New journey. It's gonna be healed over, I think. It's gonna heal. So was this also a part of Egypt? Actually, I've been playing with my young game cards today. I haven't played with my young game cards in a while for Egypt, for real Egypt. Oh, we got the high priestess. So we're kinda looking into something that is definitely underneath the veil of it all. I'm gonna have to go with a yes on this. Yup. Wheel of Fortune. Okay, they swapped it all with a hermit card. It was isolated. Two of cups. Some kind of deal was made. Oh, something came fast. Yeah, I got an Ace of Penigals. Yup, so this was also Egypt. What is that? The Seven of Cups right there you got? Yup, a confusion. They created confusion around the Seven of Cups. So the young game cards, I put this on my Twitter. This is the first deck of tarot cards I have that I had for years. And apparently it's the most challenging of the tarot to read. Obviously, I like a challenge. So I haven't picked them up in a while and I just started feeling like I needed to play with them today to get the young game cards. I like the young game cards. I mean, you got me a deck of them, I like them. I don't use them in my readings because I'm still familiarizing myself with them. I will say this, they're my favorite cards to shuffle though. It's so easy to shuffle. Popped up again. Walking away. Yeah. Okay, so confusion, walking away from the confusion. Um, I don't, it was a hard, it was a, it was a burden. It was a burden, but there was an offering made to that burden almost. Sun card, re-appenticals, coven card. Ex-appenticals. Collaboration. And for us, an offering, a collaboration, an offering. Or you were asking if this is Egypt again? Yeah. Which card is this? It's Empress, but I already got an ace in the sun. So yeah, it absolutely was Egypt. Yeah. Yeah, so I think it's gonna be a lot that's gonna come back. And I think that's why, and we can talk about this more in our Oakland Cemetery episode, because we do talk to them a little bit in those readings. And this is why they burned down Atlanta. I think there was a lot that, well, let's ask. Let's just go ahead and ask. Did they burn down the city of Atlanta to get rid of Tartaria evidence and Egyptian evidence of a different history than what we've been taught. All right. Yep, whoa. Power card.  Ace, they did it in secrets. They did it in secrets. They did it in secrets. And they fooled us to make us, yes, and there was bad deals made. Yep, yep. So there's a lot, but you can still see it, can't you? It's wild, like you walked on, for example, Peach Street Street, and you see like skyscrapers in modern buildings, and all of a sudden there's like this old church. That's obviously a Tartarian. It's very obviously a Tartarian. It's very building. All the old Tartarian buildings are definitely interwoven with all of the modern day buildings. Like a lot of places I've gone to, you see a lot of these, I call them the Tartar buildings, Tartarian buildings, and it's like just a cluster of them. Yeah, and then you have all these newer, really actually Hartford is a lot like that in a lot of ways. Now with this city, they're intermeshed within all the modern day buildings. There's actually like, so the one I was next to over, what's that one? It almost has a resemblance of kind of the Twin Tower type of building. Very narrow windows with like bars on them, kind of. Oh, there's lots of buildings back here. That looks very, it's a skyscraper looking building, but it's very old looking at the same time. It had a very Tartarian look to it. I mean, downtown, so like in Atlanta, there's like a lot of touristy stuff downtown. We've got the World of Coke Museum downtown, the CNN Center is downtown, the Ferris wheel is downtown, Centennial Olympic Park is downtown. I took them to the Waffle House, but Centennial Olympic Park and Good food though, good food regardless. Cheap, good food. Listen, Waffle House is my favorite place to go on a date. Boy, does it make your stomach want to implode though. I'm a $5 date basically. Yeah, I'm a cheap date too. I don't care about going to fancy restaurants. I love the Waffle House, the Waffle House is great. Yeah, that was fun. That was a lot of fun. And our waiter was poor guy first time.    I don't think these people realize that nothing's really changed, it's just the federal government's like, you know what, this is the state issue. Basically, that's what happened. Everything woke goes to shift. Yeah, let's ask is there. So I was telling Stephanie, I drove you through Little Five Points yesterday. Now, when I was a kid, Little Five Points is where you went to get your stuff. It was very bohemian. It still is pretty bohemian, although it's gone woke. But I drove her through there yesterday just to kind of show her Little Five Points. And when I was a kid, as well as even up to this day, there was this rumor that under a particular business in Little Five Points, I'm not going to say the name of the business on my YouTube channel because I don't want this business to be swarmed by people. But there was always this rumor that there was a mysterious door that led you to an underground city underneath Atlanta. And it's where a lot of old hippies went to die. It was basically like the rumor as a kid because Little Five Points was where all the hippies lived. Now, we do have underground Atlanta. We do have a mall that's actually underground. And I can take you guys by there at some point. It's literally a couple miles down the street from me. When I was a kid, underground Atlanta was a mall. There were shops in it, all that kind of stuff. And then it kind of fell apart. And a couple of years ago, there were these business planners that wanted to put a bunch of strip clubs down there, which I actually think is a really good idea. Like, keep them all in one area, it's underground. But then it never fell through. So there are a lot of innuendos in the city to the fact that there is a city underneath Atlanta, Georgia. We have Pont City Market. I drove you by Pont City Market. That's where the famous fountain of youth is supposedly located, that Pont Steleon was looking at. Can we ask the cards, Stephanie? Is there, in fact, a functioning city underneath Atlanta? On a side note, sitting in the bathtub the other day, I had a vision there was a whole underground. I mean, we know things happen underground. Yeah. But like, were those rumors, as a child, like growing up in the 90s, we didn't know anything about the controllers at that point. Put it down. Oops. Let me go. Oh, there it is. You got it? Yeah. Well, they worked hard on it. I pulled the ace of cups. Go look at the ace of cups on this youngy and duck. That's the ace of cups. That's the happy ending right there. I think it was functional, but I don't think it is now.  Hold on. And my toe is going to get it. See, I'm an acrobat. Oh, no, that's not the paper. Sorry. I thought it was a different card. Oh, my card. That's the star card, the Aquarian card with the ace of cups. I think spirits have a fun. Yeah, I'm the star. I'm the Aquarius. That's the Aquarius card, guys. Yeah. So I actually think this was, yeah. I don't think it was a good place to be. It probably will end up turning into something. So I believe they're what deals made. Something was waiting down there. I don't know what that means. Yeah. I feel like that's not human, OK? Somebody powerful maybe resided down there. But here's where it gets interesting. I have a death card with a seven of swords. That could definitely be trafficking. I have to look for that one. It's where they take small people. Oh, yeah. Well, things. So up in North Georgia, where I like to go hiking, it's beautiful up there. But apparently that's one of the up in the Appalachian mountains up there. They hide little people away. There was a huge bus there a few years ago. I don't remember hearing about that, actually. Well, Lanna's very wealthy. Lanna is a very, very wealthy. I mean, I live in a very nice area of Atlanta. And my place is tiny. But I'm paying for the location. Yep. You can tell, can't you, when you walk outside, like I'm basically paying to live in the town and be able to walk those places. Because you live in a very good section.  It's a great section. You have a park right over here. You have all these businesses and restaurants and everything over here. And it's a very clean area. And plus, the outside was adorable. It's very French. I mean, I know the minute I leave here, they're probably going to want to tear this place down. But I'm not going anywhere. I'm not moving until I know. I want to move. I want to go somewhere. But I'm not going to move anywhere until I know where I'm actually moving. So all right. What else should we ask about the city? Is there a reason why I had to be in Atlanta? Well, guys, after I was telling Stephanie, I was talking about college. And I was telling her I was going to school in college in England, like I left America. I was like, I went from sweating like balls, Georgia, to rainy, cold England.  Like I just want to. And then after that, after college, I went to LA and lived in LA for a really long time. I worked in LA. My plan, when I moved out of LA, my plan was to stop off in Atlanta where my family is and then move to New York City. But something always happened that kept me back in Atlanta. And I get frustrated because I'm a traveler. I've just been to Africa twice, India countless times. I've lived all over Europe, gone everywhere, Australia. I'm just always on the move. And to be kind of stuck here for a while, it's been very frustrating, but it feels very purposeful. Yeah. Can we ask why? My family's not from my grandmother. My dad's mother is from South Georgia. But my mom's family is from the coast of South Carolina. My dad's dad's family is from Tennessee, Knoxville, where that ice is temple is. I think it had to do with your vibrational frequency. Yeah. I think, well, number one, you're very passionate about this place. I feel like... I have a love-hate relationship with Atlanta. I know. But I feel like also too, it does, for the most part, it does bring you happiness. I feel like maybe with the changes that are going to occur, you're going to be, I don't know, I don't see you. I honestly don't intuitively see you here too, too long. But it's like this page of cups is like a love offering. So it's like, I'm just... Is a love offering going to take me out of the city? I don't know. These are the days of our lives. Well, you've made changes to this place. Okay. She's made changes to this place. See, Bryce is more powerful than she gets herself credit for. Just a girl.  Just a girl. In Atlanta, Georgia. Y'all want to say Atlanta, okay? That's one thing. When you're a local, the last T. So Atlanta is spelled A-T-L-A-N-T-A.  Atlanta. Atlanta. I always say that. However, if you are from Berlin, Connecticut, do not say Berlin, you go Berlin. This is Berlin. Atlanta. Yeah, we always know people are not from here. You ain't from around here if you say Atlanta. Atlanta. Atlanta. Atlanta. Atlanta. Atlanta. Y'all, it's Atlanta, Georgia. Atlanta, one syllable Atlanta, three. It's just one syllable. Local say Atlanta. So I guess I'm a local. Atlanta. I'm a local by affiliation, association, and past lives. Whoa, hey, here's a question. Now let me ask this first, because then we're gonna get into twink lines quickly before your next reading. Was the Olympics, I don't believe at this point that when they draw the names for the Olympics, or they, I think they already know where they're gonna go for a specific reason. So in 1996, the Olympics was here in Atlanta, Georgia. I went to many of the events, and I took you guys to Centennial Olympic Park. It was right by the Woff House where that happened. Bless you. So the thing happened in 1996, but why was the Olympics here in Atlanta in 1999? Were they trying to harness some type of energy to break, because we know then like what happened five years later. Their plans started to roll out. So was there some type of like magical energy here that the bad guys were trying to use, utilized by the energy of having the games here? Cause if you watch the opening ceremonies, it's creepy as hell. Like what is that? Although there are cloggers in the opening ceremony. Yeah, they're harnessing something, and I don't think it was humans harnessing anything. Yeah, so there was definitely rituals happening. I get the ace of ones. So I get this card, often the nine of pentacles comes to me as like something that is very earth. So I'm thinking underground with that, along with this moon card, it was right next to it. And so I'm getting that they had people or a person, isolated, trapped, lots of quick movement, which I'm not sure where the quick movement is coming from, I actually asked, can I clarify the eight of ones? Yeah, they had somebody trapped nine of swords. They're doing bad, black, bad YouTube. Yeah, cause I pulled out the chariots, the magician, the tower, and the ace of swords. Yeah, they were harnessing light. Yeah, this was definitely energetic. They were harnessing energy. It was probably from Atlantis. Oh, likely, yeah. And Egypt. So now let's ask about, let's move into Twin Flames. Stephanie, yeah, when Atlantis fell, were we living here in this area of Atlanta, Georgia, that we know is right now, with our Twin Flames? Is this where we lost contact? I think that's why I got emotional. I think that's why I have a lovely relationship with this place. Didn't you say you got emotional coming into this? I did, that was weird. So I had told them, we were leaving, I knew I was gonna be ahead of them because I'm often leave. I knew that. And that's not, I mean, I'm just, I'm a city driver, I'm used to driving. I knew I was probably gonna get separated from Stephanie. And so I was explaining to her son, there's a certain turn you make on the freeway when you're coming down 75, where all of a sudden you see the skyline. Is it thundering? Yeah, it's raining outside. Why is it thundering now though? It's been raining for a while. I don't know. Cause we're talking about TFs, they're talking about TFs, Twin Flames. Like I'm raw sweat. It was sweaty today at the cemetery. I still got a little sweat on me. It was very sweaty, very sweaty. I need about 10 showers a day guys. That's why I'm being on the Georgia. That's why I shower all the time. I was like, I gotta take a bath. I shower all the time anyways. See Connecticut is just this human in hat too in the summertime. It wasn't like that though growing up in the 90s it got worse and worse and worse, which I think it's manipulated. Maybe I'll hear snoring. It's my dog, he's on the bed snoring right now. So yeah, I got emotional. I was in front of Stephanie and I told her where the term that you'll, so Tyler could be aware cause he had never been to a city before. So he could see the skyline before coming into the city. And as I turned the corner myself, I actually got hit with emotion, which is weird because I see the skyline literally every day.  So why was I all of a sudden emotional? Weird. By the way, I like your banner. I don't know if I can tell you that. I like your banner. I'm actually, okay, let me know guys. I'm considering getting t-shirts for the channel and I'm actually considering ordering a bunch of them with the banner that says esoteric Atlanta and cutting them cause you guys always talk about how I cut my t-shirts.  Okay, so before we get to the cards, if you guys think that's a good idea that you want me to get esoteric Atlanta t-shirts and I can cut them for you, let me know. Let me know. All right, let's talk about this. Yes, I think that's it. We certainly were. So we were living here in this vicinity when Atlantis fell and the twin flames at that time were separated. This is, this is, this sounds like.  Someone doesn't want me to talk to you. You're good. Just process it. Bob?  Yeah, Bob's gone. Yeah, Bob's gone, bye-bye. But then at the twin flames are in union and that solar flash happens and that is a cups moment. Yep. And also too, I know I'm sick cause my twin flame is angry.  About, he doesn't, I don't even think he's aware of that who I am or what not. I'm just putting it out there. I don't know if I'm supposed to do that. I just felt the need to say that.  Somebody betrayed him. Anyways, lots of betrayal going on right now. Oh yeah.  There was a lots of, I don't know how I'm looking at these pages right here but I'm definitely getting dissatisfaction, upset, being disappointed, lover's card. Let me pull a couple other cards. Sucks. Did I have to be the one to anchor in Atlanta then? Apparently so. And I had to be stuck up in Babylon. So I technically had the short end of the stick plus I'm shorter.  I feel like my real home is Charleston, South Carolina. That's like my real home. That's where my roots are. For my mom's family, the dominant roots. And that's where we spent a lot of our time when we weren't here, I was there. And that's like how I feel home is, but then I just kind of got stuck here. What is up with all these pages? I feel like it's that the football's energy is younger than our energy. It's so weird you just said that because that's exactly what I was thinking. Like younger energy coming through, like separating and there's a lot of movement. Oh, that could have been separation travel. Being pulled apart, queen of swords. Maybe we were really bitchy towards them. Towards our twins? Yeah. No, I don't think I will. Well, my higher, y'all, listen. My higher self is very sassy, okay? My higher self is not fun. My lower self is way more fun than my higher self. My higher self said the other day.    Oh yeah, we were separated. Oh yeah, that's a separation, my friends. You're in this area. Yeah, yep. That's why I got emotional. So let's do, because I know you have a reading in 10 minutes. But look first, is my lower self fun? Am I fun?  Your higher self is very serious.  Kind of sort of elegant, but this girl needs to like relax. My higher self, well, both of my higher self and my lower self are sassy, but the higher self is a little more sassy or a little more stern. Like, get with the program. I'm like, but I don't know what to do. We don't know what to do. We're just winging it. We're just kind of like, listen, I went and got some Florida water for my friend who has that stuff. That's all I'll say. Got some other oils for my friend who has that stuff. That's all I'll say for our other mission that we have to do this week which we're not gonna talk about till after the fact. But okay, so let's do one, because I know you have a reading soon Stephanie. So let's do one final reading because we're seeing the number 11, 11, 11, 11, 11 everywhere. I mean, I pointed it to you as we pulled into Oakland Cemetery. I smacked you and said, look at my mileage. Cripping on the mileage. My car tells me how many miles until I'm empty. How many miles was I until empty when I pulled into Oakland Cemetery? 11. 111. Yeah. 111. I don't even, I mean, I just glanced at it, you know? And so anyway, what's the outcome for the Twin Flame Union in this life? This life that mirrors all of Atlantis? I wonder if I got bra sweat when I looked at Atlantis the first time. Like a tune out. Only you would think of a question like that. But okay, I wonder if she also wore gritty panties in that lifetime too, guys. Going to Dollar General, getting the gritty panties. Like, I have bra sweat. I haven't gone to that extreme yet, but I got so many bras. She's inspirational. Look at nice. Listen, you got to do what you got to do. It is what it is. It's the hot deep south. It's muggy down here. What did my friend say? Say it's grimy down here. It's grimy down here. Oh, we're coming back together. We're coming back.   Oh, look at this. Show everybody.     Actually, I could really care about physical features. I just want someone with a big heart. Yeah. I'm attracted to energy mostly, but I do have a type. Balance, baby. Balance. Sing for a second there. And I have my sexy bed voice. Why does the Aquarian card keep popping up? Why? Because you're the Aquarian. I know I'm the Aquarian, but it literally keeps popping up. It also means something's going to come to fruition. Something's going to happen. Can we just ask, when you wish upon a star, when you wish upon a star, can you just quickly ask why? Is there something that spirit wants everyone to know why the Aquarian?  Is my stomach flatter than her stomach? Yeah. I'm a light skinnier. I'm pretty skinny though. You're healthy looking. You're skinny, but you're skinny in a healthy way. I wasn't in December. No, you were too skinny in December. I wasn't like on death's doorstep. Now me, if we were in starvation mode, I'd be the last survivor. Cause let me tell you, I got some Rola Polioli going on over here. Okay, everybody see my arms? Somebody has a cute figure. I'm pleasure- She's harder. She's harder on herself, y'all. She's cute.  Now, if we can get the body fat to just metamorphose itself into hair, now we're talking. Now we're talking. She's got a cute little figure, guys. She's so hard on herself. She's tiny. And you're not? Am I the first person you can see over their head? Well, when I was with my mom, we were at the house and she needed to get something. I was the one that had to go get it. Cause I was too- Tyler, Tyler. I'm actually taller than I thought I was. But five, four? Oh, it came out again. I got the dang card. Hello.  Hello. Oh my God, I just- Holy spirit. Activate. Clearly, activate. This is correct. I'm about to have a lot of fun. Chocolata? All right, I don't know what this is all. Well, I knew, I know what it means. I'm just not saying it on camera. Cause I just said, I probably need to go shopping. She needs to go get better bras and panties. That's when she laughs too. That's great. Cause I do as well. Oh man. This is great. Sorry, mom. Let's go. Yeah, I'm pushing 40. It's fine.

It's like an ad for Matt Schuckhoff. Oh. Oh, that's a little love offering. Ooh.  Hugging. Too much front over here. I'm sweating my chest. I mean, here's a boot sweat. I mean, I'm constantly. I feel like a boot sweat. They look glitter.  Yes, something goes. We don't sweat. Listen, it could be very interesting. I mean, I guess the heat makes it hotter. I don't know. Well, heat makes things hot. In fact, if these cards are indicating this is happening here, best be glad. This is air conditioning in this city. Let me tell you, the thermostat is this. This is the thermostat. The heat's about to get turned on y'all. Bye bye, Dracoes. These twinsies gonna get together.  Family. I'm trying to sing with my, my voice. That's no longer there. Fuck, I give up. Anyway, join us tomorrow on Dark Outpost, where you can chat with both of us live. We are actually on a more serious note. So tomorrow, we are gonna be talking about Berry College. Hopefully you guys enjoy that. I don't think we meant to be that goofy, but it just happens whenever we talk about sex. So we're like 14 year old, 14 year old. We're worse than 14 year olds. I think Tyler would handle it better. I think we do. Actually, let me say it at my mom's house. So Tyler was, Stephanie and her, Stephanie was saying one guest bedroom and her son was saying another guest bedroom. And I was staying in my stepdad's office where there's like a day bed. And the bed that Tyler was sleeping on is a very old edgy bed. And my mom, my mom was sitting in the office like chit chatting with Stephanie and me.   My mom lost it. She was like, no, it's an old bed. The board in that bed is a little bit odd. I could not stop laughing. I literally like, they walked out. My mom was trying, like she was laughing, but she was trying not to bless his heart, like bless his heart. Like bless his heart, yeah. I really thought he broke the bed. I was like, no, no, it's, it's that way. Just, I've been trying to get Bill, my stepdad, Bill, to replace that bed. We have beds in storage. We just need to replace it. And she went, I was like, they walked out. I was like crying, laughing.  Anyway, anyway, just a glimpse into our little lives. Oh, he's, he's a, he's comical, he's comical. He's, what did he say when we first got here? It was like, I really like the Southern hospitality. People are nice down here. I don't like the Northern hospitality. They just grunted you. Oh yeah, he's a 15 year old standup comedian. He really is. He likes the South, doesn't he? He likes the South. He likes the city too. He thinks people are nice down here. Yeah, he does. People are nice down here, but we're known for that.  Well, like y'all come back now. I'm y'all gonna come back now.  Anyway, so FYI, I put this up on Twitter and my Instagram. If you are in all seriousness, if you are, have been trying to text me, apparently my phone is still a little bit still casted. So if I have not gotten back to you, now again, it does take me a while to get back to some text messages because if I'm filming or researching or working, I'm not gonna be able to respond. However, if it's been a while and you text me and I haven't responded, just try texting me again, or maybe again sending a carrier pigeon because apparently there's still some hubu-jubu, that's a Morse code that you know. Just yell, like send a flying paper airplane with a message, I don't know. Or if you've been trying to get in touch with me and you can't get in touch with me because my phone number is not working, you can contact any one of my friends and they can give you my address and you could write me a letter. We're talking about specific people.  No, these are people I know. Like I actually know that I think my, there's just a few people I think that might have tried to text me and I haven't received it yet, so. And I think my email is, my email's been like so wonky.  So, I don't know what's going on, yeah. We don't know what's going on.  And I've been on the road, so I haven't been looking at my email like I normally do, yeah. Just don't assume that anybody's being ignored, please don't, I don't want anybody feel like you're being, I know as human beings we tend to like assume that, but I really, I want you guys to understand that there's something going on with my communication devices and so just understand I'm not ignoring you, I promise you I'm not that, that veggie of a person. So. She's kidding, shh.  I'm joking, she's actually comical, she's very comical. She's actually, you're actually better in person than you are on screen. Really? Yeah, yeah, you're fun. I don't just say that either. I am fun. Listen though, my parents were partiers. I don't think I could, I think my parents can still all party me. Well, for sure.  Oh, my mom will steal your wine. She'll steal it. I mean, literally like you'll be having, you'll have a glass of wine and you'll put your wine down and you'll go to the bathroom and she'll literally take it and dump it in her glass. So funny. She's known for that.  It's not like, I don't know why she does it. She likes her wine. She likes wine. They have a full bar in their house. Yeah, a lot of Southerners do though. So I come from a family of partiers. They, we know how to, we know how to handle our alcohol down here itself. But a star again.  The ace of wands. Look at that ace of wands. Somebody's having fun with her obelisk right now. Oh, dear lord. Or ace of cups moment with the obelisk, the personal obelisk. Anyway, what, what, why is it pointy though? That's kind of hard. No, if it's something came with me looking like that, I would, it's more of, don't, don't. It's the Thunderdome. We all know, y'all know, y'all know. It's the Thunderdome. You got a reading, don't you? Which time is it? 402.  All right, okay. All right guys, we'll see you tomorrow on the Dark Outpost. You can follow David Zublick on Twitter if you want to watch it live. If you're not a part of the Dark Outpost TV, we're going to be talking about very complex, all right? Bye guys.

In the following, we will be giving a general overview of the Hakka language and its speakers. The Sinitic languages are a distinct branch of the Sino-Tibetan language family, consisting of various local varieties, many of which are not mutually intelligible. In China, they are all called fanyan, which means regional speech. We might call them Sinitic languages. The larger part of China is mostly covered by a range of dialects, which is all called Mandarin Chinese dialects. And from these dialects, the Beijing variant, also the modern standard language is derived. The south of China, on the other hand, is home of various rather distinct fanyan with their own names and identity. Most importantly, Hokkien or Minnan in the Fujian province, Tiaoqiu and Yue and Hakka, and in the north of Hakka, Gan in Jiangxi province. The dark green spot on this map is the area where Hakka is spoken, where Hakkas are living. If we look at the administrative subdivisions of China, we see that Hakka does not have a province of its own, but is spoken in the provinces of Guangdong, Jiangxi and Fujian, dispersing over southwestern areas in Guangxi and Sichuan. For this reason, it is actually difficult to estimate the numbers of Hakkas in China and the world. Considering the available information about the percentage of Hakkas in Chinese provinces, we find the following numbers from which we can see that the majority of the Hakkas live in Guangdong province, with important numbers in Jiangxi, Fujian, Guangxi. Furthermore, there are many Hakkas in Taiwan and Hong Kong, and this would give a number of more than 52 million people already. The Hakkas spread out to over 80 countries worldwide, which is even more difficult to evaluate. The majority of the overseas Hakkas live in Southeast Asia, and are most visible in Malaysia and Indonesia. There are Hakkas in Thailand, Vietnam, the Philippines, but they are more difficult to count as they are often assimilated to the local culture. The word Hakka, Chinese Kejia, means guest people, which is a somewhat strange name for an ethnic or linguistic group. We have said already that they do not have their own Chinese province, which is the first hint as to why they have this name. Geographically, the Hakkas originally inhabit the mountainous regions between the socio-economic centers of South China, and due to their migrational dispersion, the Hakka language is also a socio-elect of a specific social group. In the homeland of the Hakkas, there is a Hmong minority, the so-called Shur. They used to speak their own language, which is now in use by only very few people. The other 700,000 Shur speak Shoyu, which is a synetic language. This language is very similar to the adjacent Hakka dialects and might be counted among the Hakka language sphere. The origin of the Hakkas is unclear, but it is usually said that they came from the north in various migration waves. The Hakkas seem to have come relatively late in history, that means within the last 1,000 years, which is why they could not settle in already occupied areas such as the more fertile lowlands. And since the mountains were not fertile, Hakka men were rather mobile and went to work in the economic centers of Guangdong, often leaving the farm to the women. Many ultimately migrated westwards with their families. The name Hakka may be explainable from the fact that the late arriving Hakkas often rented land from landowners, which means they were not owners themselves, and therefore were considered to be only guests. A number of historically events which we cannot elaborate here led to frictions between the Bundi or Cantonese and the Hakkas, which led to outright violence and even war. The large characteristic Hakka roundhouses with only very few openings to the outside appear like defensive fortresses for a reason. It is said that these ongoing conflicts actually created the Hakka identity. They were a shunned outgroup, which over time, due to this outgroup feeling developed self-consciousness as a group. It goes without saying that therefore people in some other areas, for instance in Jiangxi, may not identify themselves as Hakka, but speak a related variety which should be included linguistically in Hakka language research. The Hakkas see themselves as hard-working, diligent, clan-oriented people who keep close contact with their group and collaborate as a group. The women are able to work hard in the fields because they traditionally did not bind their feet. Because of their delicate situation among the other groups in the region with no province on their own, Hakkas seem to have always taken care to cultivate a double identity as Hakkas and as Han Chinese. And this loyalty to China led to many Hakkas playing important roles in politics. Beside the above mentioned round houses, Hakkas are routinely known for the so-called Hakka Mountain Songs, a custom which previously served as a means of communication between the mountain hills. The Hakkas partly have their own cultural traditions. In Sinkawang, Indonesia, the Hakka Chinese Chapgome Festival on the 15th day of the Chinese New Year attracts many tourists. It has become a prominent cultural event. The Hakkas are one of the larger immigration groups from China. Most Hakkas moved to Taiwan and Southeast Asia, but also spread worldwide, for instance, to Suriname. Hakkas who emigrated early in history, often mixed with local populations and developed distinct cultures and sometimes Creoles or mixed languages. The Peranakan in Malaysian Indonesia or the Hakkas of Banka Belitung Islands are examples for that. Hakkas were very good at land reclamation and their close group practices helped create administrative structures. They were miners and cultivators of borderlands and they connected the political powers at the coastline with the native people in the jungle. But let us turn towards the language now. A language of 50 plus million speakers has dialects of its own. Being a non-standardized language, we can assume there is a dialect continuum without the center. Conventionally, Meixian is nowadays considered to be the cradle of Hakka language. It is a de facto standard. Hakka being dispersed into Guangdong and Guangxi, many speakers may be proficient in Cantonese or may have given up Hakka altogether. It is known from Hong Kong and Macao that only old people still speak Hakka today. The Zenithic languages in China could be compared to Romance languages insofar as both groups derived from one imperial language and then diverged. It is therefore interesting to compare the various languages to each other, which is relatively easy to do in the multilingual situation of Malaysia. The following is a translation of a sentence into Malaysian English, Hakka, Cantonese, Hokkien and Malaysian Chinese. It contains a loanword from Malaysian, Hutan. In English, it contains a loanword from Cantonese, Japvodim. When English speakers would say, last time we go to Japvodim by Dingsha, Kenodangwan. This would be in Hakka, Kyu by Ngad Yohi, Japvodiam, Meidungsi, Hei yute to Dange. And very similar in Cantonese or Hokkien or in Malaysian Mandarin, which is influenced by the South Zenithic substrates. Yiqian, Women Cha Cha Huo Dian, Meidungsi, Siyou de Udang de. As in other parts of the world, the first to work on the grammar were missionaries learning the local languages. Before all, the Basel mission was working on Hakka dictionaries and grammatical notes, as well as Christian translations. In modern linguistics, the first grammatical description was made by Hashimoto in 1973 on the basis of one Malaysian speaker. In 1993, a Chinese scholar, He Gongyong, wrote a Hakka grammar in Chinese language. Otherwise, Hakka is of interest for historical linguistics of Chinese. Instead of going through phoneme tables and so on, let us just get the feeling for the pronunciation of Hakka. Let's read these few sentences and compare them to standard Chinese. One of the most striking phonological features of Hakka is the existence of kouda consonants, which are altogether absent in northern Chinese. One can certainly establish phonological correlations between standard Chinese and Hakka. So, lai is loi, and yao is oi, and ai is oi, for instance. And he is ho, and gege is agor. And sometimes there are different lexemes as schwo and gong. There are eight tones in Hakka. Two are called checked tones, and they are related to these kouda consonants. Again, it makes no sense to give the system here because it diverges between the dialects. In the romanization of Hakka, numbers are usually used to represent the tone contours on a scale from one for lo to five for high. Let us discuss a few grammatical aspects, not systematically, but in a few selected examples. Word formation is certainly very similar to other synetic languages. For instance, the suffix ga is the Chinese jia, is a derivation for agentive nouns, yīng yǐn hókka, the linguist, yǐ yǐn shué jia. Similarly, xīn zhāng and xīn shāng are the same word, distinguished only by phonology. There are the usual complex rules for reduplication, but one more peculiar feature is the reduplication of meaningless syllables following a noun and giving a special meaning to this noun. So gyok gyak yā means spreading legs widely, or muk mī mi means looking with eyes half closed. Many differences come more from usage habits. If, for instance, one would translate, I am a teacher, Chinese washu laoshi, into Hakka, one can perfectly say nǎi hei xīn zhāng. However, Hakka speakers would more often say nǎi hei gausu ge. I am teach book one. And this gausu, of course, correlates to Chinese jiaoshu and is known in Chinese as well. The construction hei and ge is structurally similar to the Chinese structure shì de. One can test it with other instances, I am a car seller, nǎi hei mai tāi, I am a taxi driver, he is a taxi driver, gi hei su dexie, and so on. Gendered suffixes. This is one other peculiar feature of Hakka, which the speakers are conscious of. The gendered suffixes for nouns, gung means male, ma and po means female. This works quite well in order to distinguish the sex of animals, for instance rooster and chicken, cows and bulls and so on. But it doesn't really make sense with Hakung for prawn, but kiam tzu po for toad. Body parts also receive such suffixes, nǐ gung de ir is male, but zēt ma the tang is female. Nǐngu de breast is male. And then words such as thunder and sky are male, but knife and ladle are female. Let us keep in mind the two last words, wok ma the wok is female, and vōng gung the bowl is male. Chiu 2006 wrote an article about the meanings of these suffixes, and she comes up with the explanation that ma is used for soft, sunken hollow objects, and things people cannot see which are implicit. So for instance wok ma the wok remains in the kitchen, but vōng gung goes to the dining table and is male. Male is the opposite, then for upright things, protruding objects, something people can see, something which is explicit. Ma can also stand for small things and gung for big things. There are even more uses of these suffixes which we cannot describe here. The personal pronouns of Hakka are as follows, ngāi, ngī, gī, ngād yungin, ngīd yungin, gīd yungin. There is no differentiation between inclusive and exclusive plural. The possessive pronouns have slightly different forms, ngā, ngia, gia. They can be followed by a ge, which is the equivalent of the. It can be ngāge or ngāe. The basic syntactic word order is subject verb object, and there is optionality of all components if they can be implied. So let us read a few simple sentences. ngīhyāu gong haka fa mau ngāi ngīhyāu gong haka fa yīsī yīsī yao gīgī Many aspects of grammar are similar in the synodic languages. So we also find topic prominence where a topicalized element can be moved to the front of the sentence. Hakka sentence mun fung chui hi bang bang gung The door, the wind blew made bang bang sound. Or gīm zài à bòi zu thòi yītong cha bungi gīm zài à bòi bòi the car give him. If we try to establish possible differences between standard Chinese and Hakka, it might be interesting to look at the Ba construction, which is much discussed in Chinese grammar, and which puts the object before the verb with the help of the covert Ba when the object is clearly referenced. So it is somewhat similar to differential object marking, depending, however, on difficult to characterize constraints. Give me the phone in Chinese would be Ba shō ji ge wo but in Hakka it is only den fa bòu ngāi without the Ba. If we try to translate Ba chō xi gan jīng, so wash the car, in Hakka it is And here we see there is obligatory demonstrative in front of car, and there is a placeholder pronoun at the end of the sentence where the object usually should be. In Malaysian Mandarin, which is influenced by self-synetic, the sentence can be ke xi gan jīng da, so the da is a copy of the structure. If we use another example, Ba chō xi mai la, sell the car, this again in Hakka is a cha mai hoi gi, but there are alternatives such as cha na loi mai hoi gi with serial verbs. Or to read the following full sentence, lau fu cha mai hoi ngāi dio oito ba ta. Here the demonstrative and the placeholder pronoun are missing now. And ta can simply be put between subject and verb. Ba ta of course is a blend between English bus and Hakka ka. This example is from Malaysian Hakka. It turns out there are more co-verbs which can have partially the functions expressed by Ba, for instance that, or lau, or jiōng. And jiōng leads us back to the Ba construction because Chinese jiāng can actually replace Ba in formal writing. Therefore might be considered more elegant, more archaic, older. Let us look at data in Malaysia. An old lady said, ngāi dio oi jiōng aba atzak cao pai guā gao gao. So we want the father's signboard heng hai using jiōng. In sabahan Hakka, in sabah, we find bongi kebin gōn yim which is help you relate to guanyin which means you relate, or for you relate to guanyin. Kebin yuk wong tai di. You know, somehow gōn yim lau ngāi kao yu yin lau. Lau in this case has the usual meaning of with and not of ba. ngā ma jiō jiōng ngāi hi kebin gōn yim lau. My mother related me to guanyin. That is a ba function. And in sin kā wang, we got another verb in another Hakka dialect. ngā lo gōng gāk ngāi mō fīt kīc yō liāo. So my husband gāk my motorbike rode. Speaking of ba, maybe we can speak of the bay construction which is called a passive in Chinese. There is no bay in Hakka but bun to give can play that role additionally to the functions that gāi or bun already has. He in his grammar gives the example sam bun gi ta lan lau. So shirt give hi torn. Shirt by him torn. But often this bun construction can be omitted. Gia tsā mai hoi his car sold. Otherwise bun has a number of functions. Trying to translate the ba sentence in Indonesia led to a passive construction. Wo ba tā du shu nong bu jian lau was the input sentence. I lost his book and the answer was gia shu bun ngaim jian jian. So his book by me make not see. This sentence could be rendered as ngaichin ngen gia shu hoi which would be the active construction without any special marking. In response to the ongoing discriminations of old the foundation of the Tsung-Tin Association in Hong Kong marked the beginning of Hakka self-awareness of fighting back. Overseas Hakkas are often organized in so called hui guan or clan associations and in many places also there are Tsung-Tin associations. These associations reflect the collaborative spirit of the Hakkas. Furthermore there are by annual World Hakka Conferences which bring together Hakkas from all over the world to foster the cooperation and friendship globally. The Hakkas outside of China find themselves in various multilingual situations with other scenitic varieties and with other languages. In Malaysia Hakkas speakers usually also speak some Cantonese possibly Hokkien English, Standard Chinese and Malaysian. This leads to many interferences between these languages through borrowing code switching and structural convergence. In the following example an English dialogue of Hakka speakers turns into a word play where a Hakka word cing-tai whatever is deliberately wrongfully interpreted by a similar Chinese word cing-tai vegetables. What do you want to drink? Cing-tai laa Here got no cing-tai. Here got kopi tea or juice.  In this example the Hakka speaker while explaining the hardships of his family to learn standard probably written Chinese all by themselves he switches to Chinese whenever mentioning the learning effort. Ki hee ga gi hok tsui shue de nai chi ga hee an yong shia laa dan hee gia jiu han nu li de shi shi The green part is standard Chinese Malaysian Chinese of course. Finally in the last sentence in 35 we find a Hakka sentence with two loan words one from Malaysian English He has been detained by the police. Please also note the passive construction with bun which we just have described previously. In some places Hakka is extraordinarily strong. For instance in Sabah Hakka is the lingua franca of the region that is other people are also learning the language. The first migrants were men and they could not bring Hakka wives with them. Inter-ethnic marriages between Hakkas and local people led to the formation of a new ethnic group the Sino-Kadasan a mix between Hakkas and Kadazanduzun people often speaking Hakka and following Chinese customs. Sinkawang in the west on the Indonesian side is majoritarily a Hakka town. The Hakkas the local Dayak people and the Malays form a unique culture which is called Qidayu an acronym for China Dayak and Malayu or sometimes Qidayu for the Sinitic Qionhua for Chinese Dayak and Malayu. The Hakkas speak Hakka and Indonesian. Standard Chinese is introduced only slowly in these days. The Hakka language has many Indonesian loan words. In Taiwan Hakkas make approximately 15% of the population. The Hakka basic law recognizes Hakka as one of the national languages and it is used in public announcements it is taught in schools and it is promoted at many levels. There are also Hakkas in Taiwan who have a more complex background. For instance this rather old consultant was born in Meixian came to Burma as a young boy and much later in life moved to Taiwan where he is still running his shop to this day. These Burmese Chinese have their own quarter in Taipei. Hakkas in Europe partly come from other countries than China. For instance the Hakkas in the Netherlands are from Suriname, Indonesia also from Hong Kong and Guangdong province. The largest group of Hakkas in Vienna comes from Calcutta in India. Their group is now split up between Calcutta Vienna and Toronto and they meet each other in India which is their homeland. The Indian Hakkas of Austria work together in Chinese restaurants all their life so that the older first generation migrants do not even speak much German. As a minority language Hakka is experiencing language change through influences from other languages and language shift. That means the language is in the youngest generation. In Taiwan for instance in spite of the promotion of the language the Hakkas use more Chinese than Hakka. In this example a mother explains how she taught her child to speak Hakka and understand Hakka and she said literally Because I speak Chinese I speak Chinese I speak Chinese I don't understand and so on. As we can see she uses both Hakka and standard Chinese and she uses this code switching quite creatively by playing her role as a Hakka speaker and the not understanding part by her child. The young Hakka teenagers in Vienna are quite good at speaking Hakka because Hakka is their family language and they grew up speaking Hakka but certainly German is their stronger language and they are to be considered weak speakers. So to come to conclusions Hakka is interesting for historical linguistics because it is less innovative than Mandarin and therefore gives us certain glimpses to older versions of Chinese. Hakka is as such a non-standard language it has not been standardized as such and therefore we find a dialect continuum with a lot of variation and at the same time it is under the influence of standard languages everywhere. In China it is under the increasing influence of Putankwa in other places it may be influenced by local national languages. This seems to lead to rapid language change through borrowing code switching conversions of patterns and it seems to be no longer learned as a first language by the youth in most parts of the world. So we must expect that language shift is imminent and that Hakka like all non-standard languages might be replaced by the various the respective standard languages. We would like to finish with a photo with dictionary author Chin Aweng, a Surinamese now Dutch Hakka who spent 20 years of his life in the Paila Hakka dictionary in order to preserve the memory of the language which is now much less used by the younger generation. Thank you very much for listening we hope you found it interesting.


When the Super Nintendo first came out, Nintendo produced a player's guide that featured over 30 games spanning all genres. Each game basically got the Nintendo power treatment.  I remember my parents got this for me for like six dollars at Sears when I was nine years old. I still have it and believe it or not it's still kind of useful. So I thought it'd be kind of fun to take a quick look at it. My apologies for all the shaky and crappy camera work and the lighting and all that. I'm not much of a filmmaker obviously. Now, this book came out in early 1992, so I think the latest game in here is Legend of the Mystical Ninja. Let me get this part out of the way right away. The thing I'm most excited and fascinated about with this book is the future games section. Back then, getting a look at games to come on a brand new system was better than striking gold. Check out Super Contra 4. I wonder why they eventually changed the name. Or NCAA Final 4. This didn't even come out until nearly two years later under NCAA Basketball, and it looked a lot different. There's also Lemmings, Ultimo the False Prophet. Super Adventure Island was a big deal too, because I remember the NES games being pretty popular. The funniest, or should I say the saddest descriptions here, are for DeForce and The Rocketeer, two of the worst games on the system. The description of The Rocketeer here straight up says, while the game may lack in controllability and challenge, it is a fascinating demonstration of Super NES graphics.  Anyway, the book starts out giving an explanation of some of the Super Nintendo hardware, and stuff like Mode 7. This all went totally over my head as a kid, but I still read it, and it's a pretty interesting read today even. It's breakdown of a Super Mario World background is pretty cool. It goes from there into Super Mario World, and gives away in detail every single secret and keyhole complete with screenshots. I'm telling you, if you have a friend who's new to this game, or if your child wants to play this game, this book is invaluable for Super Mario World. The next game is Super Ghouls and Ghosts. It gives detailed descriptions about the strengths and weaknesses of each weapon, and also has full maps for the first two levels. I think that's really useful, because the first level alone of this game is hard as hell. Same deal with Super Castlevania IV, but with maps through Stage 5, and all with the kind of detail you'd expect from Nintendo Power. Final Fight is also covered, where each enemy is graded on their attributes from A to C. Poor poor bread. Poor mediocre bread. I really get a kick out of this kind of stuff. From there we move on to shmups like Gradius III, Super R-Type, and UN Squadron. Again, big maps for the early stages, and lots of detailed information on the weapons. We get one-page breakdowns of a series of games as well, like Legend of the Mystical Ninja, Super Smash TV, Joe and Mack, Ultraman, Paperboy 2, Home Alone, Hyperzone, Darius Twin, and sadly, Pitfighter. Realistic graphics with difficult play action make this a tough game to beat. I think they misspelled play at the end there. We move on to the adventure genre, where Actraizer is covered in tremendous detail. This is basically a walkthrough for the first half of the game. Stuff like this was critically important for its time, because for a confused and easily distracted 9 year old like me, it was tough to understand sometimes what I was supposed to do in a game like Actraizer. The guide gives Final Fantasy IV, Pilot Wings, and SimCity the same treatment. Final Fantasy IV in particular goes over every character's strength and weakness and tells you what to do up until you get to the center of the moon. Then of course there's Link to the Past, which features a huge detailed map. I stared at this for hours when I was a kid. I couldn't believe they could cram this much into one game. Interestingly, the game doesn't have much of a walkthrough for this one, it only leads you up to the Master Sword, and you're on your own after that. Anyway, I just thought it would be fun to show off some of this book. There's a bunch of other games in here too, like F-Zero, Ease 3, Lagoon, and tons of sports games. There's a complete list of games in the description, and if you want to see a section I didn't show off here, let me know. This guide is pretty cheap on eBay too, it's usually less than 10 bucks. As always, thanks for watching, and have a great rest of your day.


Pop OS 1910 is out and available and I updated my system to it Unlike the windows world when there's a new release you kind of do the cringe and break for impact or if you own it company like me You go wow, this is going to generate a lot of People calling us and system problems, etc. etc When it comes to Linux generally speaking and so far 1910 has been no exception Moving to a new version as there's incremental upgrades has not been a big deal Not to mean there's no problems at all But you know going to give my first impressions here of pop OS 1910 so being that it's an Ubuntu derivative and The 1910 version of Ubuntu came out all the systems that are based off of Ubuntu 10 are going to have their updates and pop OS being no exception got theirs out relatively quickly here only within a couple days of the Ubuntu release Now before we dive fully into the content I want to take a quick second to spot think a sponsor the channel which is it pro TV and they have an entire course here You can get started with Linux the whole com Tia Linux program So if you want to do the testing get certified or just do some learning through with some binge-worthy content IT pro TVs get your cover They have a ton of different Linux videos and Microsoft videos and network engineering videos So they have a wide variety of content check them out and if you're gonna check them out Why not get 30% off and use the LTS offer code so you can try it pro TV free for seven days when you sign up With a premium or standard monthly membership get 30% off use promo code LTS at checkout great content and by the way this is a Channel affiliate that we reached out to become a channel affiliate because we were already using this is a tool we use over here at Lawrence systems to do our staff training and Keep track of all over staff and I encourage all of them to a lot of extra learning I just can't make a video about everything, but boy they seem to have man They've covered so many different topics and myself I find myself watching some of their content when I want to learn about a new subject as well that oh, you know Like I said, I got knowledge caps myself and IT pro TV's been a great way to fill some of those I like videos and I like making videos and so do the folks over at IT pro TV There's also some other Philly it's down below You can check out to help out the channel and it's much appreciated while you're there click the like button back to the content so I love system 76 is pop OS it puts the right amount of polish to me on a Bunt to now. I did try a bunch of 19 town I have a nurse system running as I've been playing around with it But I miss right away the polish and enhancements I get with the system 76 Sitting on top of it now one of the first things I want to note is they bring the 5.3 colonel there Why does that matter? Well the 5.3 colonel and we'll go ahead and drag my terminal over here The 5.3 colonel which is currently 5.3 oh 18. This is what pop OS runs by default I did not customize any of this and they are noticing Substantially and they've got the much more details on the performance enhancements with the Ryzen 9 3900 X and that is the chip that I'm specifically running But the whole Ryzen series of processors the 5.3 colonel has been you know very Focused on an enhancing gaps that we're missing so there is not that you didn't get good performance out of it You get amazing performance even running the outer kernel But there's some of those fine tweaks that get it that much faster, which is pretty exciting So that's the first thing I know it's now does it feel faster? Sure But that's a really non subjective non scientific way, but I will tell you that the system seems super snappy and responsive Etc, but it always it was before I won't lie The one problem I'll highlight first is this one Kaden live their PPA Their repository that I had added on broke and it doesn't seem to like a bunch of 1910 And which means also it doesn't like system in 76, but you're probably wondering how did I upload net at this video? Did I use another tool? Nope. I use an app image So if I run the app image a Kaden live, which actually gives me one slightly Newer version it works perfectly fine Maybe I should do a video on app image sometime of app images in short a way to package an entire Application without having a bunch of dependencies and this is really helpful in terms of things like Kaden live because any of your video editors They have a lot of dependencies on different libraries for some of the compiling editing and having it all packaged into an app image Means they get exactly the ones that are gonna be the most stable and most compatible with Kaden live So that was my workaround for the one thing I found it didn't work But everything else works perfectly fine inside of system say six that tried so all my utilities I usually run in all the systems so far no problems at all They did keep the menus at the top pretty much the same so the notification menu with the do not disturb button That is not there on The Ubuntu distro at least at least I didn't see it. Maybe there's a way to add it But the native default didn't have it installed as silly as that sounds. That's really nice And the integration carried over from my upgrade of having my Google calendar Tied right in here for my business. So all the calendar notifications show up right at the top. Just fine Theme updates. You may notice the dark theme. So let's actually go over here and we'll switch over and look at the appearance So first we have some previews here of how you can change the wallpapers and didn't feel like changing wallpaper a matter of fact I mostly have applications open. So I don't think much about wallpaper But I can quickly and I mean fast if you like the different thing between light and dark Please note it takes no time to switch. This is all in real time here. I like this I used to remember back in the day when you switch on the themes It was like a pause and the system would re-render in some of the applications that have errors and etc So you can go I like to like theme. I like the dark theme whatever you're comfortable with you can switch I'm partial to the dark themes and including they did mention that they updated the terminal to mansion theme But I like my custom terminal much better This is on github you can find it on my github if you want this custom prompt The only thing I'll mention which it'll get updated because I'll push it up to github when I've launched Tmux I get a couple errors It was Tmux works fine. I can still split the screens fine, but there is a Some tweaking I must have to do my my guess to be its newest version of Tmux and some flags I have tied in there not compatible This is actually why I published my dot files on github because after I figure out what those are I'll do a push back up to my github and then a pull on all my other systems that are running us So they all have the latest terminal All right back to the other changes So besides a dark mode and 5.3 kernel both those things are really good There is some enhancements in the gnome because it's the latest version gnome and how fast it runs honorable mention though I don't use TensorFlow But this is one of those things that Papa West does a good job of and they added some TensorFlow enhancements Now these are all things. Yes, you can add on to a Linux distribution or add on to a bunch of they've baked a lot more of it Right in to make it a little bit easier. So if you're doing Some work with TensorFlow and need some of the utilities they make it nice to tie all that in there Which is pretty cool. So this is the gnome 3 3 4 redesign background panel landed Icons and application overview can be grouped together. This is actually pretty cool. So we'll pull up all the icons here And let's say, you know, some of them are group some of them aren't so here's the utilities So here's all the two utilities and if we wanted something in or out We can just kind of drag it in or out now the other thing they have to make this a little bit more enhanced Is let's say you want to put two things together if you do this It'll group them together into utilities and name it and if you take and only have one thing in a group and drag it Out it ungroups it reminds me a lot of the way the Android interface works as well You can just drag things on top of each other It's kind of nice because then you can start grouping things together But I honestly as cool as that is it's not something I ever use and the reason why my Habit for launching is really never even clicking this. It's novel if I try to remember the name of something I can't remember the name but normally I would launch something by this so I don't you know hit the super key and Just open up the tool that I want opened That's my habit of doing it so it's not it's to me. It's not what they did it So it's cool that I can do that but I think of applications I know what applications I want to run so I'm really struggling to decide so my usual launch It's just super key and open them up now. They did make this just as nice as ever Nothing's really changed here for adding things and opening up things on a different desktops that still works It's just absolutely smooth like it always has and this is one of those enhancements when you know Windows says Oh, we're gonna do some virtual desktops as one of the things that once you get used to using and having all these virtual desktops I really like the way that works. This is a gnome feature and it's something that's always worked really well for me And I do like it. The other thing that is in here is the upgrade process itself has changed Oh, there's a few other around here. I just so I see it. There are some more language options So if your language reads not from left to right, but from right to left, they did add some bi-directional I will mention that because I know I I only speak English not people ask me to translate and other things I don't speak in their language. I can't do any better than the System translations as I do realize over a little over 50% a lot of my Linux videos and sometimes higher on my network engineering ones Are viewed out of country So I do appreciate that there's a lot of this work going on and I feel terrible because I don't speak other languages I'm jealous that other people do and maybe one day I'll take the time to learn one. That's not today but the upgrade process went really really smooth because It shows up as an upgrade. So in the about screen you have this upgrade It does this whole offline upgrade and offline upgrades are now live on popo s194 bringing faster more reliable upgrades when upgrade becomes available It is downloading your computer Then when you decide to upgrade to newest OS version upgrade will overwrite the current version your software However, there's not to be confused with an automatic update Your OMS will remain on a current version till you decide yourself to upgrade This was kind of me because it downloads it and it says ready to reboot just reboot and it lets you know It's gonna do it and we we go now I didn't have any problems But like I always tell people backup backup backup make sure backups have anything critical on your system And I will be doing a video about how I maintain backups on systems Because I don't do on my desktop or laptop full image backups and people have asked why and I'm like You don't need to in Linux and I'm gonna do a video that breaks that down a little bit further pretty soon But other than my first impressions have been granted only ever 24 hours my first impressions have been I like it It works well. I haven't had any issues besides Caden live I tested all the applications and it all my usual Things that I do from a daily basis, but it's nice buttery smooth everything works fine And yeah, so far no problems at all, but I don't really expect any as much as I'm excited for new features I rarely have the whole brace for impact Mine and the minor integration about Caden live and then having a run app image is it's probably an edge case that most people Won't have an issue with because not many people are doing video editing and everything else here But tools like gimp. They work perfectly fine, which is great and Caden live I if I use the built-in Caden live, it would work It's only me adding the extra repositories that I add is having a problem So I will make sure a note of that and I run that because I want to run the latest version of Caden live So it's kind of a me problem because I'm trying to run bleeding edge on a on a system versus some people go I'm just a casual video editor and I'm fine with running a slightly older version No problem. You can use the built-in to the pop shop And load the version they have in here And does it say what version it is? 1908 to so it's going to be a little bit behind compared to the one that I downloaded from the app image, but you know, like it said minor Minor so 1908 b2 versus actually what version they show oh 1908 to so other than the b2 after it they're actually gonna be pretty close So I'll have to look at that. I didn't look at that till right now So you learn something new with me on the video.

to this session and if you remember in the previous session, we are discussing about that how to incorporate green into the different loop of the supply chain starting from sourcing of raw material to the end disposal of the product. So, what we will do in this session, we will take the very very popular and also one of the earliest attempt by this organization Wal-Mart to green their supply chain and we will discuss this case study and also we will take few recent examples by few of the organization that how they have incorporated this green supply chain practices into their supply chain. So, this is based on Stanford case study on greening the Wal-Mart by Erika Plambeck and Lynn Dennett. Now, to start with in 2005 Wal-Mart CEO Lee Scott he launched a sweeping business sustainability strategy to dramatically reduce the company impact on the global environment and the goal behind is that to become the most competitive and innovative company in the world and they committed the company into three ambitious goal to be supplied 100 percent by the renewable energy to create zero waste and to sell product that sustain Wal-Mart resource and the environment. To meet those goal Wal-Mart would seek to transform its supply chain in cooperation with supplies environmental non-profit organization. Now, what they did to start with they hire a consultive group to identify the category in their product and process which are having more environmental impact. So, this job of this consultive group is to help Wal-Mart to finding out those in those points in product and process where it is having the highest environmental impact. They identified 14 focal area and all this focal area bundled into three category renewable energy, zero waste and sustainable product. So, you will feel seeing the picture which is in Wal-Mart sustainable value network you will find under this three category there are few focal area where the impacts are more which can be to move for this sustainability goal here the intervention requiring this loops of this focal area. Now, what they did they created a sustainable value network structure where they found the leader of each focal area in term of executives in term of the manager and the responsibility of this leaders are to build a sustainable value network structure that is incorporating or you taking Wal-Mart employees and representative from government, academia, environmental non-profit, supplies and other stakeholder. And what is the goal the goal is to reduce the environmental impact and derive profit from the positive change. The first thing so, they take many steps to incorporate this environmental concern into their into the this focal area they take they took many step and the one of the initial step what they did is to identify the goals, matrix and new technology. So, in 2008 Wal-Mart formally planned to use a system to measure and recognize the center supply chain based on each company's ability to use. So, they did into less packaging, utilize more effective material in packaging, source this material more efficiently relative to other supplies. The example is that they develop a web-based core card for packaging and which will evaluate each products packaging against the nine sustainability metrics include cube utilization, recycle content, CO2 per ton of production and recovery value. And also the other example is that although they initially they planned that how much should be the increase in the efficiency each year, but in their logistic or in their crocking fleet, but they double the efficiency the targeted the doubling the efficiency in next 10 years. So, mostly they are identifying the matrix where the changes are needed the goals and also they are bringing the new technology in order to address the sustainability concern. Then the other step what they did is they certify the environmental sustainable product. So, there is an international study released in 2006 which says that all species of wild seafood are greatly depleted and predicted to collapse within 50 year. And at this point Wal-Mart source approximately 750 million dollar seafood in 2006 and the company seafood business was growing at the rate of 25 percent per year. It means they are also contributing that to that wild seafood because they are sourcing it from there. So, what they did they look at what are the certification available for this seafood. So, marine stored council MSC established by Unilever and world's wildlife found in 1997 define the standard of certification as sustainable fishery. They certify the third party to audit and certify fishery and the processor complaints throughout the supply chain from boat to plate. So, here then the Wal-Mart took that certification and also ensure that whatever the seafood they are sourcing that is only MSC certified fish not from any other certified it means they are sourcing it from a source sourcing it from a what to say agency where there is a the environmental impact is less and the impact is associated from boat to plate. Then the other step is that they provide the network partner assistance to the supplier. So, they provide the supplier with the valuable knowledge and process assistance through its strong relationship with environmental non-profit in its network. The typical example is taken over here is that when Chinese government threatened to shut down the number of textile die houses including one of the Wal-Mart supplier in order to reduce pollution in Beijing ahead of 2008 Olympics Wal-Mart immediately got into protecting their supplier. They put the die house in touch with one of their NGO in their network and the NGO help them to formulate the most environmental friendly process that reduce the toxic output quickly and in that way the supplier could save themselves from shutdown and in that process Wal-Mart played a role to connecting the supplier to the NGO and in turn that NGO help them to how to reduce the environmental impact in their process. Then Wal-Mart which become world's largest purchase of organic cotton in 2006 also agreed to purchase the organic cotton farmers alternate crops. Whatever the alternate crops they are doing harvesting they also agreed in order to support their livelihood they also agreed to buy whatever the alternative crop that is being harvested by the cotton farmer. Then they committed to large volume of environmental sustainable product. So, they made commitment to buy specified quantity of each product certified as environmental friendly also give it supplies and incentive to develop and produce the product. So, in a textile network along with the cost of certification farmers they face a near reduction in the yield with organic cotton farming as well as the need to diversify the crop. So, what the since there is a decrease in the yield and also they need to diversify the crop the farmers they get into the alternate farming of cotton with vegetables and other crops to regiment the soil. So, here they say that this also we discussed in the previous slide that Wal-Mart they only source the organic cotton and also in order to protect the livelihood of the farmer those who are into the organic cotton they also committed to buy the whatever the alternate crop they are harvesting. Then they cutting out the middlemen the what they did is that in immediate what unanticipated benefit is MSA certification in seafood network or organic cotton certification textile network what they did is that they since they have taken a certificate for both the seafood network and cotton and also in other cases they eliminate the intermediary and they simplify the supply chain they reduce the frequency of seafood stockouts improve the quality of the fish it was receiving reduce paperwork and transaction cost and reduce the cost of environmental impact of the transportation. Then they consolidated the direct supply and restructuring the buyers role. So, what they did is that since they were having many diverse relationship with the factory and they use often working in supplier one purchase order at a time or one season at a time. So, what they did they in order to manage the relationship with the all the supplier in the textile network they did some organizational change. And they redesigned the role of buyers and in the past textile buyers had been the generally handling wide variety of responsible responsibility as the buyer did it in other product category, but they redesigned the role of buyer they redesigned the role of supplier to make the process more efficient. And what are the how they restructure the buyer role they put them into this different category started with merchandising, product development, technical services and sourcing planning and execution and clearly identifying what is the role of in each of this. So, if someone is product development their role is just to focus on the product design design and looking at the trend execution like what customer liking or what kind of product they are buying. Similarly, there is a team which is working on planning on the execution. So, typically they restructure buyer role rather than doing everything how each of them mostly the suppliers and buyers where they getting into this. Then they license the environmental innovation and this comes from the concern that typically the suppliers they are very sensitive about the IPR and they concerned Wal-Mart felt that this is creating a barrier for improving the environmental performance. The typical example can be over here is that if one factor is significant one factor is significantly more energy efficient than others then it got an advantage. But if they are telling that how they have become more energy efficient if they are sharing the information with others the competition might gain in a much better understanding of its production cost and therefore its profit margin. So, although there is a positive view about sharing this, but the supplier is sensitive about the IPR that whatever the practices they are following how this can be given to the competitor. Now what Wal-Mart did they encourage the supplier to license their environmental innovation and by doing this this gives an opportunity to derive the additional revenue from the environmental innovation, increase the supplier incentive to invest in innovation, licensing the innovation would lead to improve environmental performance across industry and more widespread benefit for the Wal-Mart. Now they have done all this thing to green their supply chain here it is a very specific example what Wal-Mart typically practices in greening the supply chain for a child's creep. So, here this just an example that in building a child creep a manufacturer must focus on every step of the process from the trees used to transport and ease of recycling. It starts with ethical sourcing trees are tacked for tracing, logging practices protect community air, water and wildlife habitat. So, it is sourced from ethical sourcing then the manufacturing parts are milled to the specification that are safe for worker, consumer and environment. Then point of sale information for consumer include place of origin chemical used in the manufacture, transport trucks use the cleanest technology reduce idling and travel the most direct route there is a route optimization packaging creep assembled and package in box made from post consumer recycle material customer use it is friendly creep is easily assembled packaging is curbside and recyclable reuse creep is not disposable product rather it is passed to the family and friend and end of life when it is no longer useful as a creep recycle parts the recycle parts are recycled. So, if you look at for a child creep as a product starting from ethical sourcing it is going the green is being practiced in each stage till reuse and end of life. Now after say after going through the case study now let us see there are for few examples for 2-3 companies that how they are practices what they are putting it in the supply chain that can be categorized into the different attributes of the supply chain or bringing the green into the attributes of the supply chain. So, if you look at this is the case or example of apple where sourcing apple suppliers are committed to 100 percent renewable electricity for apple production and also they have a energy efficiency program educates supplier to identify new initiative in reduce energy usage and minus project. Similarly, product design they switch to the low carbon material then they are building energy efficiency into product and also this tactic engine in iPhone 11 series is built from 100 percent recycled rare earth metal. Then 16 inch MacBook Pro consumes 65 percent less energy than the energy star energy efficiency requirement in this comes under the greening in product design and manufacturing. Similarly, in internal operation they use 100 percent renewable electricity at apple store data center and office across 44 country and also in case of logistic and package they focus on prioritizing mode of transport with low carbon impact without compromising the delivery time on time delivery and also they do a partnership with the shipping supply to leverage the fleet improvement sustainable fuel and supply chain efficiency. Now, this is the success of the green SCM strategy which is taken by apple it is recognized in for 6 consecutive year as CDPs climate change A list for their work in the carbon emission only written to receive the top rating in mind the store campaign. Then they are the carbon neutral beginning in April 2020 apple is carbon neutral for all its corporate emission currently investing in high quality project that protect and restore forest wetland and grassland and all final assembly site for their product has been certified as UL 0 waste to landfill and they have reduced the plastic by 58 percent in last 4 years. Then let us see what is happening in Nestle. So, Nestle responsible when it comes to sourcing they are they are sourcing operation from farmer mostly connect. So, directly from the purchase of coffee, coca and milk then in product manufacturing they are the member of RE 2020 commitment for 100 percent electricity from the renewable sources then optimizing energy consumption then 27 factor is certified violence for water stewardship these are the greening initiative in product manufacturing and services. Similarly, they do in order to create awareness they do the training program for their employee and also they see that what is the sustainability can be brought into the design. Then in logistic and package they make 100 percent packaging which is recyclable or reusable 87 percent of packaging here reusable till now and using recycled material for packaging in 2019 26 percent of the packaging used in Nestle operations content from the recycled material and in August 2020 Nestle Philippines reached plastic neutrality. This is the progress so far they have implemented responsible sourcing for almost 80 percent improve water efficiency by 35 percent reduce plastic consumption by at least 140,000 tons from 2015 to 20 make 100 percent packaging material recyclable and reusable by 2025 and in coffee supply chain the target to improve quality quantity sustainability in its coffee supply chain by distributing 220 million coffee plant plants by 2020 and similarly for the percentage 65 percent have been already distributed and aim to achieve 77 percent zero deforestation with supply chain these are few of the evidence on with respect to raw material sourcing from the responsible sources and also the water withdrawal. So, in this session what we have tried to do is to understand the greening the supply chain from through the key study of Wal-Mart and also the example of organization Apple and Nestle how they have brought the sustainability agenda or how they have brought the greening action or greening intervention in their supply chain and also what is the performance it has improved because of greening the supply chain. Thank you.
