So yeah, thank you for having me. My name is Lai Yi Olson. I am the project director of Measurement Lab. Yeah, I can't say I've ever talked to 850 people from my apartment before, so this is great. I'm specifically excited for this conference because I feel like most of the people that we talk to are internet researchers and broadband policy and advocates, advocacy groups, and we learn a lot from them, but there are actually a few open internet projects, open internet performance measurement projects, and so it's really great to be talking with folks who understand the challenges of running an open project, and so my goal for today really is just to describe Measurement Lab enough and our data enough so that you can get enough of an understanding to help us understand our challenges and engage in follow-ups afterwards. So I will start by just our agenda for today. I'm just gonna ask the question, what is MLab data? When we say MLab data, what is that? And what is MLab is a question that goes with that. I'll touch on how to access the data and then get into some of the challenges, and I'll also talk to those throughout. And yeah, the idea here is that hopefully I can follow up with the folks here about how you all are approaching these questions of running an open project. So the first question that we get is, what is MLab data, what can I do with it when you say open internet performance measurements? What does that mean? And I think a way to answer that is actually by starting with the question, what is MLab itself? So I'll start, a good place to start with that is talking about the project's mission. Our mission is to measure the internet, save the data and make it universally accessible and useful. Already we get into some of the nuance here because there are so many ways to measure the internet. You can imagine that the internet is a complex network of networks. We know this, and so when you add measurement into it, it only increases the complexity in terms of understanding it and measuring it from different vantage points, et cetera. So there are many ways to do this. MLab does not necessarily claim to do all of them, but we do have principles that help guide the decisions that we make and are what we advocate for as well. And these principles are ones of open user contributed and longitudinal data, so we'll break that down. I mean, with this first one, I'm a little bit preaching to the choir, right? But open data we think is really important specifically with an internet performance research because when there are decisions being made that affect consumers' internet, we believe that the source of that research and the analysis that goes into those decisions should come from an open source, an open data source where everyone can see the numbers that were used to calculate the other numbers, right? So open is part of our methodology. We have open data and all of our code is open source and we'll talk more about that. Sorry, I'm in New York and New York is somehow still loud even though it's in quarantine. If you heard all the background noise. Don't drop home at all. Okay, good, thanks. We also strongly support and are also in our own data use user contributed data. So the idea here is that by users contributing the measurements of their internet, it's representing the consumer perspective. So there are many valid ways to measure the internet that are not user contributed, but we believe that at least some of them should represent the consumer's perspective when making decisions that affect them. And the last part is also probably preaching to the choir here, but we do believe in longitudinal data being important in that it's important to understand that the internet is going to be different from one second to the next, right? So it's to make any sort of decision about it. You kind of need to be able to understand it over time and how it's changed from one day to another one month to another and so on. So measurements of the internet are only so useful in isolation. The real analysis can start happening when it's looking at it as a longitudinal data set. So these are the kind of core tenants of how we think about our measurement methodology and everything that when you talk about MLab, everything will follow these kind of guiding posts. But what is MLab is still the question and the six components that I'll talk through are here. The first of which is it's the team of people. We are a fiscally sponsored project of Code for Science and Society, which I believe is an organizer of this conference as well. And we've been there for about a year amongst other open data and science projects. Myself, our program management and community lead and our platform engineers are all staffed there. We also have had a number of contributors over the year, kind of most prominently years, most prominently Princeton's Planet Lab, New America's Open Technology Institute and several others. Google is a current contributor and they support the project by contributing a number of infrastructure support, also internet performance research and a small team of software engineers that helps us write open source code for the platform and pipeline. So our team is made up of both Code for Science and Google team members. The next part of MLab to get into kind of the what is MLab question is the, it's useful I think to go back to kind of our origin story to understand the problem that MLab is really trying to solve or was originally trying to solve and still is. Back in the old days in 2008, Vint Cerf started this conversation around, what is really missing in internet performance research? What are the resources that you don't have, you meaning internet researchers that you would like to have to be able to complete the experiments that would give us better information about the internet? The widely shared answer was that there was a lack of widely deployed professionally maintained servers with enough connectivity that could support the experiments that researchers wanted to run. So you can imagine that it's actually quite, the internet is big. So it's difficult to get a good sized infrastructure to be able to get enough to get a valuable amount of information from different vantage points. So that is what the MLab platform is trying to solve. So we do this by hosting our servers and what we call off net tier one data centers. By off net, we mean it's where ISPs or it's in ISPs that primarily host content versus primarily connecting to individual people. And so if you can imagine, it's kind of the nodes that connect the nodes and that's where we host our servers. So the idea here is that we're getting the most relevant path to the consumer from consumer to content and we host our servers in about 130 plus locations and we have a little over 500 of them. And again, this is to be able to provide a resource for researchers where they can host experiments that get a wide breadth of information about the internet versus just small little portions here and there. It's easier to collect at a large scale than to try and join all of these tinier data sets. So the platform on these servers, like I said, this was so that experimenters could host experiments and we currently host about three of them and I'll show them in a minute, but all of these experiments are reviewed by our experiment review committee and they're mostly proposed by the academic research communities. Currently, we host NDT, which we'll talk a bit more about later as this test is currently maintained by the MLab team. We also maintain a test called, or I'm sorry, host a test called Dash, which measures the quality of video streams and then also Wehe, which measures the differential treatment of applications by ISPs. And so these two tests, all these tests are examples of ones that were proposed to our committee approved and then we host them on our platform. There are various requirements of how this happens, but the most prominent one gets into what we talked about with their principles is that in that they're required to be open. So again, with this idea that not only the data needs to be open, but the code that produces the tests that produce the data also need to be open. And we enforce this by requiring that the tests run in an open source Docker container on all of our servers. It's interesting because what happens here is essentially what we're talking about is providing not only an open data set but an open platform as a resource. And so there are parts to that platform that affects the results of the test and there are parts of the test itself and the methodology that it uses that affects the results itself. So it's one of the challenges that we face is making distinctions between the two between the platform and the tests themselves. And I'm curious if there are other open infrastructure projects here in how you handle that. In the way that these tests, the experiments are run is that the MLAB platform hosts the server side of the tests and the client and people develop clients to run tests against these servers. So this is where the user contributed perspective comes in where users can develop clients and also run tests with those clients that then test against all of those servers that we run. Anyone can develop a client and this is where we get into our open principles again. It's important to us that anybody can do so. One of the versions that people or that have been developed is if you Google how fast is my internet you get NDT which is what we refer to as our speed test. From there, all of the tests that are run produce data and that data goes through our pipeline and is archived in a public Google cloud storage archive. The idea here is that we collect it all and it's all public and you can access it if you want to. We will say though that is a lot of data and very few people want the raw data so we put it into BigQuery and this is actually how most people interact with our data is through big, I'm sorry, through MLAB. Most people know of MLAB as our data set and they know that through accessing it in BigQuery. Oh, see, it's not written. This is getting back to our origin story. We're trying to answer this question of researchers we're saying and even if we did have this platform there's going to be so much data and there's no real way to share it with one another and so this is what our second part of our origin story or answer to that is by putting all the data into BigQuery which is a distributed database provided by Google that allows researchers to access all the data in one place. We also provide visualizations but I will say that that is under construction and we are actually looking for a data visualization contractor so if you're interested, please let me know. These slides all probably powered through a bit but this just gets into the nuance between the testing methodology of the tests that we run and then the platform methodology and how they're kind of different and so when people talk about MLabdata it can be useful to try and define which one they're talking about are they talking about the platform or are they talking about the test itself? Also, if you have interacted with MLabdata or if you do, it's likely that by nature of it being the only thing currently hosted in BigQuery as well as being our longest standing test and also the fact that we maintain it when people say NDT, it's often used interchangeably with MLabdata but they're actually a little bit separate just in that NDT is a test that we host and again, I'd love to talk to anyone else hosting open infrastructure that's used as a resource and how you kind of maintain that balance between what the resource is and what the usage of that resource does. And then the last thing on our data is just getting back to this idea that one test is only going to be so useful but when we put all of the tests together and a data set, you can start to see trends of internet performance at a large scale and this is really the value of the data. NDT just like any test is only as useful as the one test but when you start to put it together with other tests you can start to see trends based on different factors and that's really where the kind of magic of the test or of the measurement happens when you combine the two. So when you are able to put NDT, a lot of tests like NDT or any other test on a scale as our platform allows, then that's really where you start to see the interesting information and we see this by, we've had, we get something like 3 million NDT measurements per day and we have close to 2 billion rows of that data in our table as of 2020. So it's massive and it's all public and I think I'm talking to people who understand that that's really important because even if you want to use this, this information is really good at kind of showing you a zoomed out view and then being able to ask better questions about where you should zoom in. So we think that it's important to start big and then go smaller, especially when you're talking about something as complex and increasingly changing as the internet. The other way that we engage with our community and through open source code is by creating tools that are able to drill down more geographically. So at the default level, we only go down to the IP level, which is about county. There are sometimes where researchers want to be able to drill down and say, you know, but like what households are able to access the internet at a certain way. And so we have a suite of tools that are designed to be able to provide that information, but also in a privacy sensitive way. And so these are the tools here and I won't go through them all, but they're all designed in this way of saying, here's the public data set. Here's how you can get more information about your specific location. And then a lot of the work though, aside from running the platform and the pipeline and hosting the data set is engaging with our community. Our community is what makes our data, does that last part of our mission, which is making it universally accessible and useful. And so engaging with researchers on how to best use the information that we provide, also collaborating with experiments or researchers that would like to propose experiments. There's an interesting thing that happens too, where I'm sure a lot of people actually have this here where everyone who uses your data is coming from a different level of technical expertise, of different interests, of different points of publication where they'd like to use the information. So there's that fun dance of trying to understand what meeting everyone where they're at while still maintaining the standards that MLab would like to see. I also, we try to say too that like everything that I presented is MLab at this present time and we are very open to collaboration. And I think that's one of the great parts about running an open project is that you always are looking for feedback on how to improve your measurements and expand, or not measurements, but data and expand it to be useful to more people and act as a public resource. I have slides here about how to access the data, but I think the slides are uploaded. So I'll just, and if not all upload them, but as a resource for later, if you'd like to look into how to access our data. And this was really the whole point that I wanted to get to is just to reference some of the challenges that I'd love to speak with you all about and follow up. I think it's interesting like there's this kind of thing where if it's one of them is that our data is free to access. So you can access it, I didn't even say that yet, but it is free and you just have to sign up for a discuss list, which we can get you access to BigQuery. And I think sometimes there's kind of a speculation of like how good can it be if it's free. And so if anyone else experiences that, I'd love to talk about that. There's of course this tension always an open data set where you're collecting, you want the information to be public, but you also want to do so in a privacy sensitive way. Clearly there's technical nuances to that with internet performance data, but just would love to talk to anyone who's also addressing that. And the last one that I wonder about for folks here is the kind of challenge of running what we consider and want to consider as a public resource while still maintaining governance that reflects the principles that we'd like to uphold. And so maintaining that balance of a community-governed project while also having your own principles that you're in support of. That is MLAB, thank you for having me. And follow up, please reach out to my email or I am on Twitter sometimes. Thanks everyone. Yeah, thank you. I mean, those last three points there, we're definitely the things people were bringing up in the chat and in the questions around. So I think that's exactly the types of challenges and opportunities that your project brings up. So yeah, thank you very much. We don't have time for questions because we do have to move over to the keynote, but thank you again for the presentation and we'll post the questions over into Slack. And so please respond to those and anybody who has questions for Lai, please go over there and ask them within the Q and A channel. Okay. Thank you. Thank you.

Yeah, I mean if I'm not working. Yeah, I think I'm due mornings, but if I'm off or good mornings That's right there. Yeah, it's probably Astro rookie sohan.    That's number to 25 Nice hit there for the spurs sohan Very nice. That's 25. We can mag that one for his spurs All right sohan there some bakes. There's john collins That one is sunburst the 75 John collins So you're saying if you make an offer you have to pay when they accept it is that Like I mean it like it comes straight out is that what you're saying now There's a vortex. Um scotty barns. We got a fractal jordan pool. Well, why wouldn't it be that way? Yeah, I feel like You make an offer and I accept it Is that how it used to be like I can't remember because I know there's obviously non payments going on ebay all the time Jeremy sohan rookie Groove of jalen brunson. I like that though. I mean you have If somebody makes an offer they should they should be ready to pay for sure Yeah, if you make an offer and they accept it, you gotta pay. There's a palo supernova jalen, um Jalen green Base Right well, they got a Astro rookie johnny davis. Yeah, I don't really do many best offers. I'm kind of confused Are you under the best offer like six are you giving them what I understand what you're trying to do there? Because if you give them under the best offer they accept it you gotta pay for it. Yeah I think they're saying like it comes right out. So like the payment comes right out like as opposed to I think before on ebay would still like you'd have like an invoice after Oh, I don't know. I shouldn't do that until they take your money until the Seller accepts your offer. There's an a ton or an impact there nice one walker castler for the jazz That's the 149 nice castler Clarkson I mean, I know they were trying to fight some non payment issues That helps I would be down vortex brad be all christian wood astro I know non payment issues are a big issue with uh auction and stuff He was you wait a whole week and the person just i'm not gonna pay like okay Well, I guess I'll waste the week of my life astro johnny davis for you Well, they shouldn't they shouldn't really give you a day to pay for rookie revolution. Yeah, it should come come right out I would think Nice one here keek and murray rookie Otto. It's one of their kings You're making an offer and they're accepting it It's pretty much Yeah, I kind of like that more. Do you are you not liking that steven? Yeah I kind of like that as a person who sells occasionally I would like I would like them to Just take it right out. That's what I originally thought was like why wouldn't we just always have that even for auctions like If you bet if you put your price you pay the price like Future frame there's number to 60 give you a day or two to think Collins. Yeah It's like you made you made your bed no later. Yeah Should be automatic payments. I would think I would like it that way at least There's fractal kawai I'm not surprised by that at all Here I'm gonna drop you to some guns. Okay. No Supernova And leaves me with nothing but a great pistol. That was great. That was awful. That was awesome I was in that game. I remember box seven All right, I got two guns. Yeah. All right. I got him. Yeah, it was juggling it down being nice. Yeah, man I'm like, yeah, take some both takes off running Box seven. Good luck here guys The next one going right after Uh vortex we got a Zion And astro diante Murray I actually sold the card. I didn't realize I had up the other day It was still running from like four weeks ago. Just hadn't hit 99 cents and someone finally paid like five bucks for it Really? Um, James Harden and I saw I had the notification the other night. I was sitting here with Donny And I was like, oh, I sold the card on ebay. I was like, you didn't know I had a card on ebay, but Okay It was like four weeks in a row that it had just not sold and I hadn't forgot about it Rookie revolution Jalen got a astro ante Edwards and they just keep tired of seeing it. Yeah, it just yeah, right? It just keeps uh, it just keeps refreshing if you don't do anything about it They sell at auction for zero dollars Should have just taken it down, but I didn't think about it. Jeremy Sohan astro rookie If it doesn't make 99 cents the first time I'm good, but if I don't think about it, whatever LeBron James shockwave We got fractal fvv Zion Really got a fractal revolution of james harden Kind of stuff But Dylan bought a lot. What's his name quarterback for greenberry Jordan love. Yeah, astro Mike Conley. Now's the time. I just looked through them all brother. There's some Horford to 100 Nice nice. There's some really nice stuff in there. I'm getting rid of all those to 100 It's a good time for it. I just did a 20 what 25 card some of the PSA Nice And it's all pokemon really. Yeah, I know you had so much pokemon scottie pippin scottie pippin cosmic to 99 Legers so much stuff.  Yeah, all righty guys box number eight. Look at another half case going here revo right after this Got some charzards. Oh, yeah I don't know. I don't know nothing I don't know nothing about me back in the current No Dylan said dad, come here. One of them he had He was opening the pokemon mccullum astro. It's a 60. I was like get this out of my face.  There you go Vortex uh lebron Astro rooty the first night we had um First night we had pokemon me and rich were doing it and rich pulled the charizard and lost his mind It was like four in the morning. We were doing it and We were going crazy at four in the morning. There's an astro france That's shawn. That's my uh top load. Yo, what up at shawn supernova job Astro kominga Yeah, yeah Can imagine well as it always does roddy rookie so astro jalen williams sam's was selling these tins That came with a munchbox tin and two Devin booger vortex I know what you're talking about tyrus maxi. They were 25 bucks a piece They had two x y evolution packs in it that were 25 bucks a piece.  We'll uh go on to next one revolution number 46


I'm Zeke and welcome to the dream green show. This episode is brought to you by Weeble Sign up now by clicking the link in the description deposit $100 and receive a share worth up to $1400 it's free money. All you need to do is sign up and deposit $100 in this video I'm going to show you guys how you can make $100 every single month in dividends I'm going to show you guys six different companies some of them are going to be outrageous Some of them might be companies that you're already invested into so I'm going to show you exactly how much money that you need Invested into these six different companies in order to get $100 every single month But enough talking let's go ahead and dive straight into the video Welcome back dreamers in this video We're going to give you three different categories of stocks and then we're going to compare a very high dividend stock in that category in a very Some what reasonable Dividend stock in that category so it's going to be a high one and a low one in three different categories The categories that we're going to be looking at is the first one is Companies that are inside the S&P 500 the second one that we're going to be looking at is real estate REITs and The third one we're going to be looking at is ETFs So let's go ahead and pull up the first one of the S&P 500 companies that have high and medium-range Dividends at the first one we're going to pull up is AT&T tickle symbol T They're at $29 at the recording of this video. They have a dividend year of 7.17% and they have raised their dividends over the last 25 years the number that we need to pay attention to is they pay out two dollars and eight cents per share So for every share that you own of AT&T over the course of a full year You will receive two dollars and eight cents from owning that one share So let me show you guys how to do the calculations on that right quick So over the course of a year you'll want to make $1,200 that is $100 every single month from AT&T You want to divide that by how much you'll get paid per share, which is two dollars and eight cents So you'll need 576 shares. Let's round that up You'll need 577 shares to in order to receive $1,200 in dividends from AT&T over the course of a year, which is $100 a month And then you want to multiply that 577 shares by $29 which is the price of AT&T right now So you'll need 16,733 dollars worth of AT&T in order to receive $1,200 in dividends from AT&T over the course of a year so 16k almost $17,000 that you would need invested into AT&T to make $1,200 every single year from AT&T So your dividend investing it is not cheap, but it is truly passive income You're gonna make $1,200 every single year from AT&T They have grown their dividends over the last 25 years and they're a stable enough company to be inside the S&P 500 Yeah, it's not cheap, but it's the the easiest passive income You're literally making money while you're sleeping like you have nothing you don't have to do anything And you're gonna make a hundred dollars every single month in your sleep So even with AT&T having an outrageous 7% dividend yield There is another company inside the S&P 500 that have that even higher yield, which is insane Which is okay, right now on their price at $26 and 34 cents and they have a dividend yield of 14.37% that is out that is insane They have a dividend growth of over 18 years that increased their dividends the last 18 years And they have an annual payout of three dollars and seventy four cents per share So let's just do the quick math on OKE right quick. All right, so here we are $1,200 divided by three dollars and seventy four cents You will need 321 shares worth of OKE in order to receive $1,200 in dividends every single year So let's do the math on that 321 times 26 34 $8,455 worth of OKE in order to receive $100 in dividends every single month $1,200 in dividends every single year And this is completely passive income Okay, so to compare the two companies inside the S&P 500 You have AT&T which is a dividend aristocrat Then you have OKE with a very very high maybe unstable dividend yield Of 14% with AT&T you'll need over $16,000 invested into AT&T in order to receive $100 a month and with OKE You'll need a little over $8,000 invested into OKE to receive $100 a month So in between those two you guys can already start seeing the difference that with each different company Is going to cost a little different in order to receive your $1,200 a year And passive income in dividends And that's going to bring us to category number two real estate REITs These are companies that invest into real estate and they are required to pay back their investors in dividends The two that we're going to be looking at is AGNC and Tickle symbol O reality income. So let's look at AGNC right quick. Okay, so here we are with AGNC It is at $14 and 11 cents They had just cut their dividend yield and they still have a dividend yield of over 10 percent It's at 10.21 percent They just cut their dividends due to the pandemic but I expect them to bounce back Pretty soon over the next couple of years And they pay out $1 and 44 cents per share So let's do the quick math on AGNC right quick. All right. So with AGNC, you'll need $1,200 in dividends every single year and you divide that by 144 that they pay out and you'll need 834 shares of AGNC to receive $1,200 in dividends a year So let's do 834 times the price of AGNC, which is $14 and 11 cents And you'll need $11,767 worth of AGNC or real estate read In order to receive $100 of passive income every single month Okay, moving over to company number two reality income It is at $63 and 36 cents has a dividend yield of 4.37 percent And they pay out $2 and 77 cents per share. So let's do the quick math on that $1,200 divided by 277 you'll need 434 shares 434 times the price of $63 and 36 cents You'll need over $27,000 invested into ticker symbol O In order to receive $100 a month in dividends from Realty income so it is a big difference in between AGNC and reality income And moving on to category number three for all of the people out there that don't invest into one company You love investing into ETFs. So we're going to look at two quick ETFs right quick The first one we're going to look at is sphd the youtube mean everyone investing to sphd on youtube and they have a Their price right now is at $33 and 83 cents. They have a 5.31 dividend yield They increased their dividends over the last three years And they pay out a dollar and 80 cents per share In dividends every single year. So let's do the quick math calculations right quick. So $100 divided by 180 Uh, you'll need six hundred and sixty seven shares of sphd in order to receive $100 a month. So let's do that Six six seven times the price is $33 and 83 cents You'll need 25,564 dollars worth of sphd in order to receive $100 of passive income every single month from sphd And the last ETF we're going to look at is spret the super dividend read etf Okay, they're at $7 and 83 cents with a dividend yield of eight 0.81 percent They just recently also cut their dividends and they pay out 69 cents per share in dividends over the course of a year So let's go ahead and do the math on that 1200 divided by 0.69 You'll need 1740 shares And you multiply that by the price seven 83 You'll need 13 624 dollars invested into spret In order to receive $100 in dividends every single month from this etf All right, so let's go ahead and sum everything up the cheapest way to get $100 of passive income in dividends every single month Would be to invest into okay You'll need a little over $8,000 in order to start receiving $1,200 every single year Individends from that company the most expensive company that would take this tickle symbol o Realty income you'll need over $27,000 invested into reality income tickle symbol In order to receive $100 in dividends every single month from that company But with all of that being said over the course of the next couple years Some of these companies are going to stay exactly where they're at same dividend yield But some of these other companies are going to take off explode over the next couple of years Because they're able to invest money back into that company Instead of paying all of their money out in dividends to their investors They're able to reinvest that like AT&T They're able to reinvest that money and grow that company over the next couple years So over let's say 10 20 years from now You could be receiving a lot more dividends from a company That has a lower dividend yield today than they would have in the future I know it's a little confusing, but I talked about it before in a couple of my other videos So if you guys want to stay tuned and keep track of everything make sure that you subscribe to my channel So you don't miss out on any future videos But yeah, this was six different companies that you guys can invest into in order to receive $100 in dividends Completely passive income every single month. I showed you guys how much it would cost Let me know down in the description. Which one would you guys invest into? Would you split up your money 50 50 or 25 25 25? Like how would you invest your money inside of these Six companies or if you are already making $100 in dividends So let me know down in the description below Which companies are you invested into and how much money a month are you making from dividends? But other than that i'm zeke bringing you to dream green show and i'm out. Peace


I come from a first-generation background. I was the first in my family to go to college. Hi, my name is Terry Garcia and I am the Director of Inclusive Excellence in Student Success at the College of Nursing. So Project PAN is an acronym. It stands for Building Equitable Opportunities for Nursing Diversity. Dr. Garcia actually has helped me a lot. I had a really tough time last year, like second semester. Her door was always open and it's like when you go in to talk to her, you know that you have like a feeling of home. Without Project Beyond and Dr. Garcia especially, that my sophomore year and some of my junior year would have been very, very tough to finish. Dr. Garcia is making a huge difference in the attainability and equity of a nursing education as well as graduating nurses, more diverse nurses into the health care workforce. When Project Beyond started about 2006 or 2007, Project Beyond had 15 or so students and now we have currently around 140 students from diverse backgrounds. She has this amazing ability to stay positive in the face of challenges. She keeps us energized. We know this is the good work and we have to stay focused and just keep pressing forward. I want our students to be able to not experience what I did. I want them to be able to understand the importance of studying, understand the importance of an education and I also want to be able to grow the number of nurse leaders who are of color in our communities.


The House of Representatives has mandated the Inspector General of Police, I.G.P. Cairo de Huetokou and the Nigerian Army of Pration Seif Haven to investigate killings in some local government areas of Platteau State and to ensure culprits are brought to book, as well as identify and evacuate all cells of bandits within the state. The mandate was reached following a motion of urgent public importance by Honourable Dachung Musabagus, representing just north-south federal constituency of Platteau State. Honourable Dachung says these attacks had been occurring in some part of the state for some months now and this has affected crops in farmlands which are completely destroyed, with seven miners gruesomely killed in cold blood on the 9th of July 2023 around foreign lumber of just south local government area of Platteau State. Honourable Dachung says these attacks had been occurring in some parts of Platteau State for some months now with crops in farmlands completely destroyed, further aware that seven miners from my constituency were gruesomely killed in cold blood on the 9th of July 2023 around foreign lumber of just south Platteau State after coming back from their mining site. Concerned that most of my people live in fear of the unknown due to insecurity and can no longer assess their farmlands and their mining sites. The House do resolve that the House should observe one minute of silence in solemn respect to the victims who lost their life during the attack. Mandate the Inspector General of Police to investigate and ensure culprits are prosecuted. Mandate operations safe heaven to identify and advocate all sales of bandits within the state. The departed raise in perfect peace. Amen.


Maybe you're watching this because you're afraid that you've committed the unpardonable sin, which is also known as the blasphemy of the Holy Spirit. Or perhaps you're watching because you want to learn more about this important topic. Either way, we're going to dive into this. But first, I want you to leave this in the comment section. Three simple words. Faith over fear. Because we are going to approach this not from the place of fear, but from the place of faith in who God is, faith in His Word.  There are believers who suffer with this. Constant intrusive thoughts. Constant worry. The constant wondering about loss of salvation. The constant wondering about the rejection of God. The constant wondering if their last mistake was the final mistake and that God is finally done with them. And they live their lives trying to discern between God's voice and their own emotions and thoughts. And as thoughts raise to their mind, they try to figure out what is God. And they're so afraid of missing His voice amidst all those voices that come at them that they live in torment and fear. Maybe I'm describing you. Maybe you do have what I call religious OCD, these intrusive thoughts. And it even gets to the point where you're being directed in very specific things.  Was that God that told me to wear the red shirt instead of the blue shirt?  And then you're tormented if you feel like you've missed them. God is gracious and we trust not in our ability to hear God. Rather, we trust in His ability to speak to us.  In other words, if someone talks about missing the rapture, you say, well, that's going to be me. If someone talks about God creating vessels of wrath, you say, well, that vessel of wrath is me. And if someone talks about committing the blasphemy of the Holy Spirit, you say, well, that's me. I've done it or I'm going to do it. I'm afraid of committing it by accident. I want to talk to you today. And I believe the Holy Spirit is going to set you free, not just from the fear of this sin. And of course, we should tread carefully in this area. I'm not by any means trying to inspire a casual approach where Jesus wanted to inspire a level of reverence. But rather, I'm talking about living in the healthy balance of the joy, peace and love of the Holy Spirit with true discernment, with true grounding in His Word, not on our own opinions and feelings. I believe this is for you. So our approach is going to be simple. Number one, we're not approaching this with fear. We're approaching this with faith. And I will get into the meat of this, but it's important that you hear every word because I want to walk you through this. I want to be with you as we go through the Scripture and study this and find out exactly what Jesus was talking about when He talked about the blasphemy of the Holy Spirit. And I want to dissect the lies that the enemy maybe has placed in your mind because the enemy does indeed plant points of deception that make it more difficult to receive truth in this area. So while it might be tempting to just jump right into it, let's start with the simple and then move through some of the details. In a way, it's going to actually bring liberty. It's like surgery of the soul. We're going in with the Scripture. This may take time, but I believe it's going to be worth it. So towel your flesh. We're going to sit through this from start to finish and we're going to receive freedom. So again, we're not approaching this with fear for 2 Timothy 1.7 says, for God has not given us a spirit of fear, but of power and of love and of a sound mind. And also we're going to compare Scripture with Scripture because one thing we can be sure of is this, that the Scripture will not teach one thing that contradicts another thing that it teaches. So as we compare Scripture with Scripture, we're going to see the balance. We're going to see the harmony between the truths communicated to us through the Word of God. And as you begin to see the harmony that comes between the Scriptures, you'll actually begin to receive freedom, as you know that truth. And then next, we're going to tread carefully. Jesus meant to be harsh. That's the reality of what we're looking at today. These words are found in three of the four Gospels. This message of blasphemy of the Holy Spirit. So I'm not so concerned with comforting people that I disregard the weight of Christ's words. Again, I'm not trying to inspire a casual approach where Jesus wanted to inspire a level of reverence and godly fear. So my explanation here right now is by no means an attempt to escape the harsh reality of what Jesus was describing because it was indeed a harsh reality. Second, Corinthians chapter 5 verse 11 says, knowing therefore the terror of the Lord, we persuade men. So Jesus gave a warning because it was exactly that, a warning. But at the same time, just because Jesus gave a warning, doesn't mean that you as a born-again believer have to live in a constant torment because of the reality of what he was talking about. So first, let's look at the verse. We're going to look at the verse, then we're going to look at the context, then we're going to look at the word itself, and then we're going to draw some conclusions after we go through this study together. Let's take first a look at the key verses here. So Matthew chapter 12, 31 and 32. So I tell you, every sin and blasphemy can be forgiven, except blasphemy against the Holy Spirit, which will never be forgiven. Anyone who speaks against the Son of Man can be forgiven. But anyone who speaks against the Holy Spirit will never be forgiven either in this world or the world to come. So just by looking at that key portion of Scripture there, we can conclude that there is certainly a sin that one can commit on this side of eternity that can never be forgiven. A harsh reality indeed. Never really means never. Forgiven really means forgiven. Never forgiven really means never forgiven. Now again, I want to emphasize, not in this world or in the world to come or not in this age or the age to come, this is a big deal. So this is something that can be committed on this side of eternity. Now let's look at the context here. Let's go to Matthew 12 again, and we'll jump up to verse number 22, and then we're going to read all the way down to verse number 37, and then let's glean some truths from this portion of Scripture. Then a demon possessed man who was blind and couldn't speak was brought to Jesus. He healed the man so that he could both speak and see. The crowd was amazed and asked, could it be that Jesus is the Son of David, the Messiah? But when the Pharisees heard about the miracle, they said no wonder he can cast out demons. He gets his power from Satan, the Prince of Demons. So they had heard of this miracle. Jesus knew their thoughts and replied, any kingdom divided by civil war is doomed. A town or family splintered by feuding will fall apart. Verse number 26, and if Satan is casting out Satan, he is divided and fighting against himself. His own kingdom will not survive. And if I am empowered by Satan, what about your own exorcists? They cast out demons too, so they will condemn you for what you have said. But if I am casting out demons by the Spirit of God, then the kingdom of God has arrived among you. For who is powerful enough to enter the house of a strong man and plunder his goods, only someone even stronger, someone who could tie him up and then plunder his house? Anyone who isn't with me opposes me. And anyone who isn't working with me is actually working against me. So I tell you, every sin and blasphemy can be forgiven, except blasphemy against the Holy Spirit, which will never be forgiven. Anyone who speaks against the Son of Man can be forgiven, but anyone who speaks against the Holy Spirit will never be forgiven either in this world or in the world to come. So the context here is that the Pharisees were reacting to an exorcism that Jesus had performed that brought about real demonstrative results. In other words, the people were able to clearly see that something had transpired in the Spirit. He was physically healed, the man out of which Jesus drove the demons, he was, or demon, he was physically healed. And therefore there was a very clear piece of evidence there that the man had in fact experienced something supernatural. So the Pharisees are hearing about this and the Pharisees were often trying to discredit Jesus. They were jealous of him. They couldn't teach like he taught. They couldn't cast out demons like he was able to do so. They didn't have the authority that he had. They didn't have all the people like Jesus had. So they were very jealous of him. They were resistant to his work. And so they were constantly trying to trap him. They were constantly looking for something to complain about. They were constantly criticizing and trying to find one thing that they could pin on Jesus and bring people against him. So the Pharisees were often trying to resist his work. So they either heard about this or witnessed this. It's possible they could have inquired about what they saw. But the Bible does say that they had heard about this and then they make a very stunning accusation. So they see the deliverance, specifically the exorcism. That was a very specific type of deliverance. They saw the healing that was a result of the exorcism. This man is set free. The power of the Holy Spirit is at work. The people aren't talking about the fact that he was the Messiah. And then they make a stunning accusation saying that he's using demonic power. Now verse 28 tells us the power he was using. But if I am casting out demons by the Spirit of God, then the Kingdom of God has arrived among you. So what power was Jesus using? He was using the power of the Holy Spirit and the Pharisees in the state of hard-heartedness, in the state of cynicism, in the state of jealousy, in the state of resistance to the work of Christ, draw this conclusion. Maybe it's not even exactly what they believed, but they said so out of that state of hard-heartedness because they wanted to believe that there was something wrong with what Jesus was doing. It was the only way that they could justify how they attacked him. And so they accused Jesus of using demonic power when in fact he was using the power of the Holy Spirit. So is that it? Is false attribution the blasphemy of the Holy Spirit? Well, yes, but I think it goes a little bit deeper than that. So the Holy Spirit's power they are saying is demonic and they went further and were basically implying that Jesus was possessed by Satan. So not only are they comparing the power of the Holy Spirit to demonic power, but they're rejecting the identity of the Son of God in so doing. So this really is a very ugly accusation and it's precisely why Jesus told them this. In fact, Mark 3.30 says it very specifically like this. He told them this, that is his whole explanation of the blasphemy of the Holy Spirit. He told them this because they were saying he's possessed by an evil spirit. And so this is something that Jesus says in response to that accusation. So yes, we can conclude that the blasphemy of the Holy Spirit does ultimately manifest in that way to where one is attributing the power of the Holy Spirit to demonic power. Now, does this mean that if someone thinks that thought or mistakes the power of the Holy Spirit for demonic power that they've sealed their fate? Because think about those people who don't really understand the power of God, don't really know what's at work. They don't have hard hearts. They're not cynical. They're not resisting the work of God. Maybe they just see it and wonder, gee, I wonder if that's demonic. Or maybe they genuinely believe that it's a different spirit being used in that particular circumstance. And they say, well, that is a demonic spirit. And then later they find out, oh my goodness, maybe that could have been the work of the Holy Spirit. Well, if that were the case, I think it would be a lot easier to commit the blasphemy of the Holy Spirit than it actually is. But you have to remember that the Pharisees said this out of that place of hard hardness, it was a state of the hardened soul that produced this stubborn accusation, this refusal to see any good work that Christ was doing. It was a very deeply rooted rebellion that ultimately produced what we would call the blasphemy of the Holy Spirit. So before we draw any more conclusions, let's take a look at the word itself. Again, so far we've seen the verse or the portions of Scripture, those two verses, and then we've seen the context. Now let's look at the word itself, blasphemia. This appears in the New Testament 19 times. And it is slander, detraction, speech, injurious to another's good name. So off the bat, just by looking at the word, we can rule out certain sins. Murder is not the blasphemy of the Holy Spirit. Suicide is not the blasphemy of the Holy Spirit. Fornication is not the blasphemy of the Holy Spirit. Witchcraft is not the blasphemy of the Holy Spirit. Adultery is not the blasphemy of the Holy Spirit, and so on. Now these sins are grave sins, and you shouldn't commit any of these sins. Of course not. As believers, we should strive to live holy. But one cannot categorize these as the blasphemy of the Holy Spirit because the blasphemy of the Holy Spirit is expressed in speech. That's why it's called the blasphemy of the Holy Spirit. Blasphemy has to do with speech, which you express with your words, which you communicate. And so this is not an unbelief unto death, as many have suggested. In fact, I used to suggest this, that the blasphemy of the Holy Spirit is just the rejection of salvation all the way up until death. Well, that cannot be the case because the blasphemy of the Holy Spirit can be committed on this side of eternity. Remember, won't be forgiven in this world or in the world to come. So it's definitely something that we can commit on this side of eternity. It's not just rejecting salvation until your deathbed. It's not just rejecting the work of the Holy Spirit until your deathbed. It's in this world that you can commit this. Plus, the idea that the unpardonable sin cannot be committed while one is living completely ignores the original context where the matter was first addressed. So either the Pharisees had committed the blasphemy of the Holy Spirit already or they were just getting to that line. They were awfully close to committing the blasphemy of the Holy Spirit, which is why Jesus gave them a warning. Now, if you ask me, my opinion is that they were just close to committing the blasphemy of the Holy Spirit. Otherwise, Jesus would not have given the warning. Why warn someone about something when it's too late for them anyway? Some might suggest that he was giving them that warning and they had committed the blasphemy of the Holy Spirit but he was doing that for the sake of those who were listening to what was happening. Maybe so that they wouldn't commit the blasphemy of the Holy Spirit. But in either case, whether they committed the blasphemy of the Holy Spirit or were awfully close to committing the blasphemy of the Holy Spirit, we can look at that key verse in Mark 3.30. He told them this because they were saying he's possessed by an evil spirit. So again, it's not the rejection of salvation because again, it can be committed in this life. It's not just general blasphemy or general disobedience or an ugly thought or an intrusive thought or a thought of rebellion. It's something much deeper. It's a very deliberate sin that one has to choose to commit because it comes out of a state of rebellion. Again, we're looking at the Pharisees here. You have to make sure you check out the context. And this was coming from those who were resistant to the work of Christ who lived in that cynicism, that stubbornness, that state of being that ultimately produced this ugliness that is the unpardonable sin. So we're going to bring some balance to this in just a moment but I do want to talk to that one maybe who struggles with intrusive thoughts or with what I would call what I've termed religious OCD. For example, if I tell you not to think of a blue car the first thing that's going to pop into your mind is a blue car and especially if you're someone who's very worrisome and you're always thinking about the worst case scenario then the moment you hear about this idea of the blasphemy of the Holy Spirit your mind's going to tell you don't commit the blasphemy of the Holy Spirit don't commit the blasphemy of the Holy Spirit don't commit the blasphemy of the Holy Spirit so right off the bat what's going to begin to flood your mind are seemingly blasphemous thoughts well actually yes blasphemous thoughts but not because it's coming from the place of your heart and rebellion but because you're thinking about the concept in that fear is producing those types of intrusive thoughts now those aren't healthy thoughts those aren't good thoughts you shouldn't think those thoughts and you should overcome those thoughts to the renewing of your mind but that's not the same thing as the blasphemy of the Holy Spirit in other words this stubborn refusal to accept the work of Christ and ultimately attribute his power to demonic power 1st Corinthians chapter 12 verse 3 says this so I want you to know that no one speaking by the Spirit of God will curse Jesus and no one can say Jesus is Lord except by the Holy Spirit therefore it is not possible for a Christian to truly commit the blasphemy of the Holy Spirit again the unpardonable sin is a very intentional one you cannot commit it by accident the Pharisees were determined to reject Christ the Pharisees were determined to demonize Jesus the Pharisees were determined to find a fault with him with Jesus himself and the work of the Holy Spirit itself and again I say itself because I'm referring to the power not the person of the Holy Spirit so it's the condition of the heart and the soul they have to be in a certain place now remember I talked about comparing Scripture with Scripture because you have to be able to harmoniously tie together the threads of the various truths of the Scriptures that we go over and if you have one Scripture that seems to contradict another then that can only mean that you're not truly understanding one or both of those Scriptures so we look at John chapter 6 verses 36 and 37 we find that the Bible says but you haven't believed in me even though you have seen me however those the Father has given me will come to me and I will never reject them so think about the fact that if you commit the blasphemy of the Holy Spirit ultimately that seals your faith that's the rejection of God but anyone who comes to God meaning approaches God or desires to connect with God that can only be because God has drawn them and if God has drawn you that means that's the reason why you're approaching him in the first place or why you desire him in the first place and so as you begin to approach God that's proof that he's calling you that's proof that he's drawn you and so if you approach God he's not going to reject you so if we're going to tie together again these threads of Scripture if we're going to look at these two different truths we'd have to conclude that the one who commits the blasphemy of the Holy Spirit would never approach Christ would never approach God why otherwise we'd have a contradiction with these two Scriptures why if you desire to approach God and then he rejects you that's going to contradict what was said here in John chapter 6 verses 36 and 37 and so this can only mean that the one who commits the blasphemy of the Holy Spirit has no interest in repentance has no fear of having committed has no desire for God in fact they've gone to a certain state that is irredeemable it's reprobate the conscience is seared with the hot iron they've gone above and beyond now again as someone who deals with fear and anxiety you may be thinking well what if that's me what if I'm the one who's gone to that place where my conscience is seared well the very fact that you're fretting about it is proof that your conscience isn't seared because that means there's still a desire to be made right with God and so the Bible says again those the Father has given me will come to me so if you come to him that means the Father has given you to Christ and I will never reject them under no circumstance in other words there isn't a scenario where Christ will reject you if you approach him if you come to him because it means the Father drew you and so even if you think you've committed this sin the evidence to you that you have not is that you desire to approach God I wrote this to kind of help me collect my thoughts on the conclusion here if Jesus never rejects those who come to him and the one who commits the blasphemy of the Holy Spirit can never be forgiven then the only conclusion that we can draw is one that would ensure that these two truths don't contradict one another these two truths can only be true at the same time if it is also true that the born-again believer would never find himself in a state out of which would come the blasphemy of the Holy Spirit in other words if you are afraid that you've committed the blasphemy of the Holy Spirit you haven't if you are worried that you might do it you won't if you feel God has rejected you and you're wanting to come to him and you're afraid he will reject you he will not reject you and again we draw this conclusion by taking together these two truths of Scripture that are immovable and the only way you can reconcile these two is by saying that the one who commits the blasphemy of the Holy Spirit would never have any any desire for repentance and therefore a true born-again believer cannot commit this so if you're worried about it you haven't committed it if you don't want to commit it you won't commit it why? because your heart's not in that place where you've ultimately given yourself over to that reprobate mind now you may say well in my past I blasphemed the Holy Spirit in my past I didn't care well do you care now? are you worried about it now? well that means your conscience isn't seared so you didn't go so far as to actually commit the blasphemy of the Holy Spirit out of the state of the heart that would ultimately produce the genuine unpardonable sin and so again to simplify if you're afraid you've committed it you haven't and so you have to really begin to get a hold of those thoughts and really it's a cycle and when you really examine this you'll find that you probably obsess about more than just the blasphemy of the Holy Spirit I have people messaging me about this all the time for the David I think I committed it my office tells me that's one of the number one calls if not the number one call that we get I have to speak to David I think I committed the blasphemy of the Holy Spirit I need someone to pray with me I think I committed the blasphemy of the Holy Spirit and they're looking for this assurance I remember talking to one individual on the phone or I believe it was on Instagram and we were just working through this particular fear that he had in this area of the blasphemy of the Holy Spirit and I asked him I said if you overcome this fear are you just going to jump on to another fear he said yeah probably I said what were you afraid of before you started obsessing about this concept of the blasphemy of the Holy Spirit he said well I was worried about the rapture okay I said before then what were you worried about I was worried about being rejected by God okay before then what were you worried about you know and so there was always something to worry about so when you deal with an anxious mind religious OCD intrusive thoughts you're always going to find a subject about what you can obsess you may be hearing about things in the news right now and you're obsessing about those things you may be obsessing about the rapture you may be obsessing about the end times and ultimately that fear is going to take you to the worst-case scenario and it's going to fight you to stay in place so that when you try to bring your thoughts back to that which is true namely the word of God it will assault you that deception will assault you in the mind and try to bring you back to the place of fear fear persistently naggingly asks what if what if what if faith says even if and so that fear that what if is constantly trying to pull you back into that place of torment to where you feel yourself seeing the light you feel yourself coming out of that dark place where you conclude okay maybe I am okay maybe I am still loved by God maybe he hasn't rejected me and then it pulls you back down the tunnel of but what if but what if you did and so again you you mustn't confuse those intrusive thoughts that just kind of come to your mind that you're trying to fight constantly with this state of being it is so rebellious that it refuses to acknowledge Jesus as the Christ that it demonizes literally the power of the Holy Spirit and comes from this place of stubbornness and hard hardness it is a it is a state of being before it is an expression of blasphemy and that state of being cannot possibly be the state of the believer otherwise we have a contradiction in Scripture and so you have to learn not just to overcome this one area because now that you may have a little bit of relief in terms of the blasphemy of the Holy Spirit and again I'm not trying to inspire comfort in this area because it is a real sin that can be committed so you do need to make sure that your heart never becomes so hard where your conscious becomes seared and you want nothing to do with God where you're resisting his work demonizing the power of the Holy Spirit you don't want to get to that place of course not but that's not the same as maybe what you're struggling with but you have to realize that even if you overcome this fear right you get this one in line you leave here you sigh a sigh of relief you move on with your life your mind if you don't deal with that issue of anxiety and intrusive thoughts and religious OCD you're just going to latch on to another concept about which you're going to obsessively worry day in and day out until you're tormented by that thought too and then you got to go watch another video that's going to set you free from that particular issue you've got to deal with this at the root ultimately that is rooted in fear that persistent nagging voice that is constantly trying to bring you back to the place of torment again the born again believer cannot commit this sin if you're worried you've committed it you haven't committed it and then you may say maybe your maybe your fear gets a little more nuanced then you say well i'm not worried i have committed it did i commit it that still is a form of worry it's a multi-layered form of worry and it's a little bit more complex but it's still a worry it's still a concern there's still a desire being expressed to be made right with god and he will never reject you when you come to him he's not going to reject you either the word is true or your fears are true either god's voice is speaking truth or your fears are speaking truth your thoughts are speaking truth it's time to come out of not just the bondage of this specific fear but out of that cycle of worst case thinking of obsessive compulsive

said that yeah you say some of them really ain't gay they just put on the dress and act gay that's it so he might be playing like he rich but he really ain't rich they different that's right but what why do you think he would not want to be in the same room I mean if you put the real you take two Nike tennis shoes and adjardins everybody love them they love them they spend their last dollar on the pair adjardin yeah but the fake adjardin the real adjardin on the table we on boss talk one-on-one yeah we gonna talk we good so this hundred thousand dollars is gonna be disposable income wow yeah and I can't be like a lot of our people who get money you know I got mine you get sure no no no no no this money should be spread it out wow over the hoods that's real that's where people can touch it they can take it they can invest it they can fuck it after they will yeah yeah yeah okay when you tell you what you felt about that's on you yeah come back wow so that's the way I plan on using mine and also to expand the business yeah yeah because expanding the business mean that you know now you're an hundred thousand now you're the hundred twenty five thousand now you're the hundred fifty thousand now you had two hundred thousand I mean you know that's how I went from 125 dollars selling cocaine to making three million dollars a day because every day I put it back to expand the business to make the business grow to the point to the point where I was doing three million dollars in one day three million dollars in a day or something else I just don't see how you mentally would be able to keep up with that I've heard that story I've seen you tell that story and I'm like how did this what you just enjoy yourself but you know like no it's like a raw steel then I'm still a little bit then I'm still in there something the rapper stole my name he needed that yeah I know what a million in the industry if he wouldn't stole the name let him have that jar singleton needed to steal a movie and John Polly cuz I really feel like John really liked me he looked up to me this y'all what I talked about it well and you know what I figured happened John took this show to FX and he said I got the real Rick Ross we want to do his movie in FX and oh we don't want to deal with that gangster yeah yeah yeah yeah that's you and you and Rick Ross no you've never seen him at have y'all ever talked we talked several times have y'all ever face-to-face not facing me no you don't want to talk he never wanted to be in the same role with you now and I know you know with all that money that's what that's the trip if he if it's really is money in my if it's really is my new prop lefty what do you think it might be like a guy playing in gay what you really ain't gay you also what do you think and you just said that yeah you say so I'm really ain't gay they just put on the dress and act gay that's it so he might be playing like he rich but he really ain't rich they differ that's right but what why do you think he would not want to be in the same room I mean if you put the real you take two Nike tennis shoes and adjardins everybody love them they love them they spend their last dollar on the pair adjardins you put the fake adjardin the real adjardin on the table and which one give me value yeah that that they do that one is fake gonna be there now the kids don't want the fake so you probably never be in the road with y'all never do business y'all would never we can never do business never do that what's gonna probably happen is it gonna get as I get so big people gonna start saying man you a fake you gotta go down in history as the fake Rick Ross you know that's gonna be his model isn't when history is written but you know we write history right now yeah we make it we make it so when they go down in history he's go down in history as the fake Rick Ross the guy who stole the real Rick Ross is wow yeah and that's yeah cuz you are freeway Ricky Ross who pretty much the only way you could change that is change his name and believe it all over you that's not gonna happen that's the only way you don't go on in history as the fake Rick Ross when the history books is written and the history books are definitely gonna be written yeah he's gonna go down in history as the fake Rick Ross the guy who stole the real Rick Ross his name Wow Wow and he and then all the other stuff that he came into contact with the CEO well no matter that's gonna be over yeah and what because of y'all's success exactly you exactly right I even think about that nobody cares about the other for they just looking at the success yeah when they start reading the history books and then going through the books and then the future kids it's gonna be like well he tricked all nine people man Rick Ross man God dog because well I first heard like I said I didn't even think about it but when you came on it became very prevalent of what happened you know people start reckoning I'm like dang man freeway out you freeway out what's gonna have people know what's gonna happen when there's 30 thousand a 30 million dollar movie hit the hit the screen and advertisement is all over and and not anybody over gonna call me you know she she don't find it I need to talk to me if I need to talk to it that is so true like it the way the bigger you will tell how much money you guys man you don't want to talk to me when I'm not that's it was like Mike Jones so just again man I want to go back into the stressors a little bit give me a more just give me a little bit more detail like for guys who don't understand how they're able to get into the business I can knock it I can do that yeah yeah what we did is is we started a trend out in California called social equity okay social equity as you know we never got our 40 acres and you know so they came up with the idea is why not give something back for slavery Wow so you know you can't go in there's Supreme Court said you can't use black as a reason to discriminate no more well you can't get in college get special treatment in college cuz you black man that's over with shut that down yeah I think was affirmative action like that so what we did is we came up with the idea what about people who were targeted by the war on drugs who because you know the war on drugs was targeted on black and Hispanic people huh facts no that's big fact facts that you the numbers don't like the numbers don't lie so what we said since they illegally targeted these communities why not allow these communities to benefit now from a drag that you used to target them for it is illegal wow so if you are a convicted felon and and most states beside child molestation and on robbery you good yeah them to today they don't want them to in there and I don't blame no I get it I don't like them to me so but but that that then you guys had to head on to even go that far to keep going pushing yeah when did you guys start the venture because you gotta think about it you've been home now all of you know I've been home 14 years 14 years about fast it went by fast what what when did you guys start the venture to get that to make that happen we start I I didn't start it I heard about it all the time and I joined it ain't already started a movement and when I heard about it I just joined in with them wow you know with the move how long was your only movement with them five years ago five years ago five years ago yes that's a lot of time man yeah because to see it through why one hour old did it take them that when they start how long did right around the same time when they start they started maybe weeks or months before I heard about wow because I was with the little clicking you know one the city all trying to get it all figured out and you're making sure that I could get a license


All right, let's watch this in full here. There is sound awesome sound The only thing I would say is it sound wise you have some really big this moment here and This explosion here where it feels like we're going way too crazy with I know it's like some clipping on the base or something where it feels very distorted and just too much Like the levels are too much. So just watch out for that that you don't break things there I think animation wise I mean we're so close out one thing I would start since we are in such a You know final area where I feel like we can push the The offset in the timing every now and then all of those wings sometimes they feel like they just go down It's fairly mirrored. So, you know, one would be lowered and the other Just kind of offsetting these by a frame or two renown name where like the up will be different in terms of one wing But then it go down and again will be slightly different. They're not so mirrored. It's a bit of a general path pass There I think when I was watching this the main thing the couple bigger things that struck me that would still fix This is still feeling very sharp on that drop here That comes out on the where it doesn't feel physics driven where it just kind of has hang time and it starts to drop Downs a bit weird. I Don't mind this one is because it has that energy of going up. That's all cool This starts to feel a bit lights that tail swinging around and doing that move and then over there I just keep watch out to not have too many really fast changes I know it's also a bit hidden with this in the shake, but that just felt just a bit fast there This one still has a lot of up and down there That up here just feels a bit fast and I mean they really just three four frames Adding there and Then this one where this one now feels a bit too sharp in the drop. It's not going as low I still feel like this is a bummer that we don't see it better here But I don't think you want to do this because I've mentioned a couple times and I still see it The whole thing I would say then have at least the fire go up this way She's more prominent right now because it's so low and it's shooting so low. There's really no threat there It's just it's just kind of noise That would make a bit more of a bigger deal out of this Just the tad the biggest thing is here Where it just feels I personally would Try a pass here once we're starting from here on no camera shake and see what that gives us because it's hard to see where some things are just Like this is a big move over one frame the chopper goes up over one frame But then I'm looking at also the camera move has some choppiness in there and then you have This feel like it goes to the right here and Then it kind of stops like visually in 2d frame then it goes back to right there has a really big drop down here And then it's not doing much.  I don't know if it's because the double frames But I think I would look at clarity first of really going up and hitting this with just a bit of a smoother motion right now It's just a bit choppy And this still feels and we're going slightly down when it's a slightly to the right But now we're starting like we're ending here, and then you're going over there I would have at least that framed here. So we're not jumping too far and And I think wait with your pants so that we still feel that right to left And then it gets a bit Wonky we're going a bit high again I would just look at very clear framing and then kind of layer maybe some noise or shake in the In the camera, but I would keep that just as clean as you can I feel like we're too low the camera person dissipates this a bit too early and Then you got moves like this or visually You can see how the head goes to the right to the right and then it's kind of stuck into any space Stuck again. Whoa, it's only goes down to the right It's just that section through there That has a bit of a hiccup wonk and the same thing there with the wings giving you a bit of an offset watch out This was like there's the intersection there And then you got some tracking issues at the end here of your explosion moving over here But definitely better on the feeling of the fall and continuing Yeah, so picky things here and there, but it's so good. It's definitely Coming along really really nicely just a little little things here and there. All right.

Hello everyone, this is Anudhan of Iran Journal. On this channel, you'll find financial, travel and more videos just like the one you're watching right now. If you like what you see, please consider subscribing and give it a thumbs up. Today, I'll be unboxing Logitech HD Pro webcam C90. Also, I'll attach some test clips and I'll show you how to attach this webcam to your laptop or monitor. Hello everyone, this is Anudhan of Iran Journal. Today, I'll be unboxing a webcam HD Pro C90. This is a Logitech webcam and it is packed with features. Some of the features are this is full HD 1080p and it's got video compression and built-in dual stereo mics with automatic noise reduction, automatic low light correction and you can put it on tripod. Also, it has face tracking and motion detection. So let's start with unboxing. Okay, cut this part. Okay, so let's start opening the box. Let's put it aside and I'll take it out slowly. Okay, so it looks like the camera is in another separate box and this is how it looks inside the camera box. This is Logitech C90 HD Pro webcam and this is the back side of the box. So it just gives you all the features and all the features and specs right here. Okay, so I'll start taking it out from the box. Okay, so it looks like I have to cut this section. This section, they made it difficult to open so my guests would be have to cut this plastic wrapper and just cut it right here. Okay, so I'll slowly take it out. I'll put it aside for now and let's take a look what's inside the box. So there's just a quick guide or setup literature to just show you how to attach it to your laptop and attach it to the USB and then here's the safety manual and other features. So I'll set it aside. Okay, so here is the back side of the camera and I'll try to take this out. Okay, so it looks like this is the USB cable that's connected to the camera and I have a feeling that it's already attached to the camera. So I'll just try to remove the camera before I do anything else. Okay, so I push it this way and the camera is coming out and I'll gently take this out of this section. Okay, so the camera is totally out. Just the way I guessed the USB cable is already attached to the camera. It doesn't look like you can remove this part. So you have to plug this in into your USB, laptop USB slot and this is the front side of the camera. Okay, so I'm just trying to see if it tilts. It looks like there is a packaging here. Let me just get rid of this part. So I took out the wrapper that was putting it together and let's see how it works. Okay, so this section you can tilt it. Let's take a look here. Okay, so it's unfolding. Okay, so I have a feeling this part right here attaches to the laptop. Cover or laptop top, however, I don't know how to move this and all right here. We got it. Okay, so this one also tilts and this one goes like this. Okay, so you can tilt to keep it this way or you can push it up and make it longer. So basically you can put it anyway which is convenient for this camera to see the part you'd like to video and then this is the cable which will touch it to your laptop power USB port. Okay, so it's fairly small and it's good looking and these two has to be the speaker for stereo recording which is a plus point because most of the camera or most of the web camera this size, usually they are mono they're not stereo. So this is a big plus point and also the HD full HD 1080p is a big plus point. So what I'll do I'll attach it to my laptop later on and take some pictures and test it then I'll attach that video with the video I'm doing right now and then I'll put everything together so you can have a good look of how the camera records and everything. Thank you for watching and if you like what you see please give it a thumbs up and consider subscribing that's all for today. Thank you. So I'll show you how to mount or use this webcam in various ways. So the first one is you can just lie it flat on a table and then it will work. Then you should like to lift it up a little bit but still you want to keep this on a table then you can just do it like this see it's going up so it can go up to this part and then if you move beyond that then it's going looking upward so this is another way and then the other option you have you can use this hold to put it on a tripod or anything like that and then it will stand like this and then you can tilt this head a little bit so that's another way. Now if you'd like to put it on your laptop then there is this blank space here so what you do you just take it and you put it on here and you can flip it just like this and it stays that way and then you can you can bend it a little bit or tilt it a little bit so that's another way and then let's say if you'd like to put it on your monitor or on your all-in-one then what do you have to do you just open it and you put it here or anywhere and then to tighten it you have to push this forward so for example put it here and then if you just put it forward then it tightens it a little bit and it just sits there so that's how you can use the Logitech Webcam C920 in various ways okay thank you this part of video I'm doing with my Logitech C920 Webcam if you notice that you see my face is a little bit focusing on the outside behind me so that is kind of very clear however my face remains a little bit dark so this is where I think this camera has a little bit difficulty when you have a well-lit background and if you are just you know facing the camera then looks like that camera cannot put that much, shed that much light on your face so it makes your face darker and I'll attach another video with my laptop's a default webcam and you'll see that my face looks much lighter and brighter with the other webcam now if I just move the camera a little bit then you can see that it's focusing I think a little bit better when it's closer to my face so if I move it around but you know as it gets further from my face my face is becoming okay so for example right now see it's getting darker it's getting brighter and lighter okay so this is so I'll stop it right now and then I'll add another clip which is done with my laptop's original webcam okay so this part of video I'm doing with my laptop's original webcam which is the default webcam and the sound system is through the laptop's default sound system so if you look at my face then I have a feeling that the default laptop camera is doing a better job taking a picture of my face which is brighter and clearer than the Logitech webcam and so here this is this part where I believe a Logitech webcam C920 is not performing well like my laptop default camera which has to be a lower grade camera because I even I'm not even not sure that this camera is HD but it's doing a better job just focusing to my face and the background is okay so the balance between my face and background I like my laptop's default camera better than Logitech C920 so I'll stop it right now
