The A&A eLearning Academy is brought to you by CDN Graysheet, a trusted source of rare coin and currency valuations since 1963. I basically titled this topic or this talk rather discovering your coin because what I've found in my conversations with a lot of collectors is they buy pieces for their collection but they really sometimes don't know anything beyond the tip of the iceberg about that piece and there's so much more to learn and it's such a fascinating aspect of the hobby learning about these pieces and kind of that more scholarly side of things. I always try and encourage them to do that deeper research and that's what I'm hoping to help you guys with here today as well. So here's how to truly learn about the objects you're collecting at least in my opinion and from what I've learned in the past. So really the first thing to realize is that they're not just objects and basically all of you guys I hope know this already is that coins are more than just objects when you add a new coin or token or metal or banknotes to your collection you're not just adding like a hunk of metal or a piece of paper there's so much more to it otherwise I don't think many of us will be collecting to be honest with you there's a lot of broad context to this piece that you have in your collection right beyond what you're holding in front of you here this coin one of the things I hear most from non-collectors is when I show them some old piece of my collection they'll be like wow imagine how many hands that's been through and as a collector who's been doing this for like eight years at this point a little bit of that wonder of how many coins or hands this been through has kind of gone from me but I'm still I'm still blown away by how many non-collectors just are blown away by the history of this piece and so that's an important thing to recognize is it's not just in the here now this piece has been going for however many years since it's been made whether that be a 10 or or a thousand and the context of the piece is in my opinion one of the most important things in order to have this full appreciation of your collection understanding how it got to you and what it's all about is so much more than just filling those spots in the Whitman folder putting it in two by twos or putting slabs in a slab box really understanding the full context is really key and appreciation of these pieces makes it more fun for you in terms of understanding how just cool your collection definitely is it makes me at least more passionate about the hobby knowing that there's there's a lot more to it it also builds community I'll get into more that little bit but but really connecting with other people who share these similar interests and who can either you can either tell these stories to or who can tell you these stories and give you this information about these objects in your collection really build quite a sense of community I collect some pretty niche things myself and other cultures I found to share these niche passions within emos Maddox really have formed a tight bond together and that's a great part also makes me more passionate and it also just makes a stronger hobby as a whole when collectors are educated and they're making advancements of the hobby not only for themselves but hopefully you also choose to share the information that you learned and share your collection and exhibiting or whatever else it might be that just makes a strong hobby stronger and that's really important so this appreciation of the context of these pieces is not just a kind of a random project but really a quite an essential part of of emos Maddox so let's talk about the methodology for learning about coins when you look at emos Maddox objects that can be a coin or a paper money or token or metal up to you here's the questions I asked myself and you all have likely heard this before it's who what where when why and how and so most of you probably are familiar with this from like Sherlock Holmes or whatever else it might be but these questions really do get to that foundational part of of your object and figuring out kind of approaches to learning about it so I'll dive into each one of those questions here but but that's kind of the thing that I I first go through as an almost a checklist when I first have a coin so let's start with who there's basically two questions about who that you should be asking yourself anytime you purchase a new piece or have a piece that after this talk you want to go back and look at first one is who owned this who owns this before me unless it's like a very very rare or very very new piece maybe like you buy directly from the mint or whatever else it might be it's pretty likely that someone before owns you owned it and and that can provide some really interesting context to the piece and have some really cool stories similarly now the other question is who collects this not only shouldn't you be looking at who used to own this piece but who collects similar things to what I just purchased if I purchased a let's say a Morgan dollar for for just a general example who else right now is collecting Morgan dollars the answer is going to be a lot of people by understanding who else is collecting this will not only allow you to meet like-minded people who can teach you more but it'll also allow you to maybe buy more Morgan dollars it'll allow you to kind of again build that sense of community meet people with similar passion similar interests and really connect with people in a whole new way so find out who collects this as well is another who question you want to ask in terms of that first two question who owned this the ability to determine the provenance of a coin is kind of dependent on on where that piece is acquired if you're buying it from an auction company and it's a more expensive coin you're probably going to be able to find out the provenance usually in the catalog descriptions they will mention who has previously owned this if you're buying it from a dealer it's kind of hit or miss you might you might get it but you might not but you can definitely ask and they might tell you they might not but it's worth asking if you buy it from a private collection again you can probably get some insights going a little far back so every piece is going to be different but I actually met a guy once a lot of books especially in the early 20th century and mid 20th century about numismatics use plates right auction catalogs as well they'd use like lithographic plates for pictures of coins and sometimes people will come across though they'll be owning a coin and they'll be reading through the book and looking at the plates of these coins and they realize hey my coin's actually on this plate and that kind of helps the provenance as well because they know the author probably owned this coin at some point or at least had access to someone who did so it's always kind of something fun you can stumble across in research and finding current similar collectors can really be achieved a couple different ways and this is getting at that second who question there's a most numismatic niches have a specialist organization that cares to their need if you're into numismatic literature there's a organization for you if you're into Morgan dollars it's an organization for you here to trade tokens same thing so no matter what you're really into there is there's an option paper money to the extreme there's tons of organizations there's really no limits and so if you really reach out to these organizations and most of them have a website or presence it shows you can really connect not only with the collect individual collectors who have a lot of resources for you but also become part of this greater organization that's contributing to numismatics in a really great way also honestly the internet's fantastic for finding other collectors there's a lot of collector presence on social media which is a great way to find a like-minded interest there's forums hosted by pcgs and i know ngc has some as well where you can meet like-minded individuals but even it's a really good way to meet people and it's a whole new way as well also you can just ask if you're at a show and you buy a coin from a dealer or you buy let's say a metal from a dealer and you say hey like metals just fascinate me where can i learn more usually if that dealer is selling metals they'll be able to point you in the direction of some other dealers some organizations or some other collectors like yourself who can actually really get you more information and again introduce you to people who are really quite fascinated by that subject most hobbyists are really inclined to help you find people who share the same interests you do and here's a little example of from a heritage auction actually of a lot description in terms of the provenance that we were just discussing this is from a coin that was actually just auctioned off a couple days ago and it was a pretty rare piece and so you can see they detail out the provenance pretty deeply but you can see all the way back to 1882 where this coin was and what options it was sold in which kind of gives you no idea of which collections it's been in and it's been in some pretty famous collections so auction companies heritage and stacks powers both have great archives online to really reference and understand where your coin might have come from really key let's talk about the what so every numismatic object has a story and i've i've given talks about these stories before so i'm not going to go into a whole thing you guys can find those elsewhere online but the stories are really what's fascinating to me and in my experience talking with non collectors was fascinating to them sometimes i'll go into schools or my own school even now bring like a racketeer nickel nothing super expensive people are fascinated by racketeer nickels and these these kind of fun stories behind objects that that have a true history of them are really quite engaging and so what when you when you're looking at your own personal numismatic object and you're trying to get this what your job or rather your your fund assignments is to find out what that story behind its creation is and and you can kind of take out who what where when why how approach as well as done by that little bit of a acronym there not a great acronym but an acronym nonetheless and really finding out the story behind this creation like what what what is the reason for this existence right and and usually there's some pretty fascinating reasoning behind each and every piece and the process of discovering that story behind these these pieces is one that countless numismatists have really fallen in love with not only finding out but that research process is really a big draw for a lot of collectors and if you try really doing this in-depth research on your pieces I would I would put good money under the fact that you will probably enjoy that process a lot of people end up enjoying it enough that they decide to share their research and either publish it or give talks on it or just share it individually with other collectors who who share again similar interests that they do and is really what draws new collectors in so this what is actually a really essential part of planning about your coin what is the story behind it what were the what were the key events that led to this coin's creation and to learn the story of your coin to learn that what there's a couple different resources you can consult and they include but they're most definitely not limited to the Newman numismatic portal it's a great resource it's an aggregator of content whether that be books periodicals like biographies documents photos everything you can imagine has I think millions of objects of digitized completely free numismatic information it is truly one of the best resources I've ever seen for numismatics I almost guarantee that any piece you're looking at unless it's the most obscure thing ever and even some of the most obscure things ever is going to be on the Newman numismatic portal so simply using that platform I highly recommend and that's a great thing for finding out the story behind your coin maybe you'll find an article from 1968 about about a bank note that you have in your collection and that really gives context that you couldn't find anywhere else physical publications are great too you don't just have to stick to digitized things books and magazines are are well are are are great resources sources of information they tend to be very thoroughly researched the ANA has a lending library if you're an ANA member it's the only cost you postage to borrow these books similarly if you want to purchase books or periodicals or wherever else it might be there's numismatic booksellers you can point you in the right direction or say hey have you thought of this reference and they can acquire that piece for you or whether that be a snipping from a newbies mags scrapbook in 1943 to a modern day Whitman book they can help you track that down so physical publications are great as well and then there's other websites I previously mentioned heritage auctions and and stacks bowers they have a great archives on there forums are a great place not only to learn about information it's already been posted but you can even send an inquiry and say hey I have this piece here's a photo can anyone tell me about this chances are someone can social media is great Facebook especially for identifying things Instagram has a lot of collectors on there tens of thousands many of whom are passionate young collectors who know how to use the internet to find information about your object so inevitably that's a great resource as well there's also a lot of other scholarly sites so the numismatic the American numismatic society association and other various specialty sites really have decent resources that can help you find information you're looking for so it might just be a matter of typing your your piece into a search engine and I'm really finding the results that follow here's a little picture of the newman portal logo at the top there so let's get into the where and the when part of building a broader context for this numismatic object right it is appreciation for it is the understanding of the world into which your object was created right your object wasn't created in a vacuum there was things happening in the country and or company that created the object and so it's important to have that that context even beyond how this coin was struck but what was going on in the world at the time right that heavily influences not only having that broader historical knowledge which is just kind of fun on its own but also having a true understanding of your object not only from a scholarly perspective and just a genuine interest perspective but also from a market-oriented perspective you're trying to buy or sell a coin it's really good to know that in so-and-so state it's so-and-so time this coin is going to be like generally coins are going to be more weakly struck because there was some kind of war going on and so as you approach buying a coin you're knowing that most of them are going to be more weakly struck because there was a war happening so having some context on the environment having some context on how current events were progressing in let's say 1864 really is helpful for you not only out of knowledge and appreciation but also as a buyer and a seller and most of this information is really available for free on the web or actually a great place is your local library this broader historical context does not have to come from newsmatic literature it can just come from broad history books and magazines there's there it's really quite easily accessible information and quite fasting information so it's quick and free to really access you can get it locally but it will pay dividends and your collection building efforts it will really help you become a better collector overall understanding the context of the world into which this coin was created how about the why so now that you know the context behind the coins creation from the what you know the stories and you know the context of the world of the time from the one of the where now it's worth examining the object itself look at look at this piece let's say for example it is a double eagle that's just off the top of my head let's look at the exact coin itself this is one of the courses always stuck with me a very famous collector said this in the late 20th century he said why this design with these devices and inscriptions and this denomination in this metal at this weight at this time and not others this is kind of a very multifaceted why question but it's an important one and it kind of ties a little bit into the way in the where a lot of the reasons that your coin is going to be the way that it is is because of what was going on the world at the time US coin collectors will know that some of the silver coins has been debased over the years and that has to do with external factors it wasn't new mismatches usually pushing for this it was economic forces etc so why this design right why are we seeing lady liberty on this coin well that's a really good question there's actually a lot of really fascinating answers to it that are important to know why these devices and inscriptions like right in god we trust very famous in US coins why is that there and what are the implications and ramifications of having that model on our coinage and this denomination right why don't we still have 20 cent coins in the US good question it's something you should probably research in this metal why is it 90% silver 70% silver or pewter or copper or a copper nickel clad why is it that way again you're going to find answers and you're going to be probably find yourself in a bit of a rabbit hole as you explore these why's at this weight especially and at this time which is also super key and then of course not others so why is really quite an essential thing let's talk about how obviously the internet is a really great resource as we kind of discussed with numismatic portal already very fantastic as a social media forums and option websites specialty organizations like I previously mentioned and also miscellaneous strongly websites I'd like to share with you all actually really briefly speaking of auction websites the heritage auctions website which actually I pulled up an example from one of their recent options and you kind of get an insight into really what the who what where when why and how is right so this was one that sold yesterday actually it was from Columbia University before this Columbia University it was a literary prize medal and I was down in Dallas recently and I got a chance to hold this one and take a look at it just before it was sold and and as you go into the law description you get quite a bit of context many of you have likely not seen this medal before but you can but using the resources that heritage auctions makes available for free in perpetuity you're able to really get insight into this medal right there's only three in existence in what I'm proud of hands kind of gives you some context on it and the context continues actually for quite a while this is a fairly expensive coin so obviously they're going to put a little bit more work into describing this than maybe any typical coin a typical collector buys but really it gives you all this insight of who what where when why and how and speaking of who here's a little bit of your provenance for you so really there's a lot of really good resources and what I'll share real quick with you also is the numismatic portal hopefully this pops up on your screen right here this is the homepage it was founded by airp Newman who's a very famous collector who passed away a few years ago but this can use to live on it's a great resource based out of the Washington University in St. Louis and you can see they're constantly updating things they have image collections auction catalogs going back for decades and centuries even and even if you're looking for again that who you have people on the left hand side here there are tons and tons of resources if you look at the bottom there's 42,000 books 10,000 auction lots 5,000 people and 25,000 encyclopedia records so really this is a beyond fantastic website let's get back into the how so you have the internet but you also have in person tangible sources of information right coin shows coin conventions are have been for me one of the best sources of information not only from the individual collectors but also from the dealers who are there who have a generally wealth of knowledge especially in some specialty areas token dealers you'll find no way too much about their about their subject but shows are really great resource for finding people for finding your community and I really have for a lot of my niche areas as well as previously mentioned books and periodicals from the A&E Library are super super helpful and very inexpensive and they have some really rare pieces that have great information that haven't been digitized yet and that will really help you in understanding your pieces books and periodicals from elsewhere like I said you can purchase them yourself or borrow them yourself from elsewhere and Numismatic booksellers like Colby and Fanning are really great resource and and as are from a bunch of other places as well if you remember the American Numismatic Society you have access to their resources a lot of the specialty clubs have resources if you remember these clubs they often issue periodicals so those of you who are members of clubs like the early American Copper Society and the Numismatic Bibliomania Society will get quarterly periodicals with great original research and that can really help you gain not only the appreciation for the piece you have in your hands but also for the broader series or the broader niche as a whole and again your local library as you're building this local context or this broader context of the world local library is a great access point as is honestly the internet but when in doubt really just ask another Numismatist if you haven't really got a chance to interact in person with the Numismatist as most of us haven't due to COVID but if you hadn't before that really take advantage as quickly as you can to create an interaction whether that be in person or online if you ideally in person though so if you get a chance after COVID to go to a show or come to summer seminar for the ANA that is really going to further your appreciation for the hobby and I really do recommend that if you're going to online routes you could start in the forums that's a great place to kind of start having discussions with the collectors and sharing your knowledge and hearing from them but also social media is a great place and if you have interest in pursuing kind of a social media aspect there's lots of resources available for Numismatist to get involved a lot of honestly young collectors have created so that you can actually get more knowledgeable about getting started online but with that said that's the main bulk of the presentation here basically it's intentionally short because it really is not that much of a complex process you just go through that who, what, where, when, why, how and it'll be basically enough for you you can kind of take that rabbit hole as far as you want I've spent two minutes researching a piece and I've spent days researching a piece so it's really up to you up to the piece and kind of how you want to approach that either way is beyond rewarding that's about all I'll say Logan all right well we do have one question so far and again if you have any questions please put them in the chat we're in the Q&A and I will read them can anyone buy from Heritage or do you need to be a dealer yes you can buy from Heritage let me actually show you this real quickly so anyone can buy from Heritage if they want to via their online options or they often actually host them at shows I know Logan you're involved with shows so you probably have some maybe overlap with that here but if you just create a Heritage account in effect you will can then basically go into their auction platform like you see here and basically choose any of their departments they have a bunch of different stuff they sell if we go to their main page here here's an auction that's happening in 22 hours and anyone can bid just with that account and then they register your credit card information so it really does work out quite nicely anyone can be involved with that cool next one have you ever used internet image searches yes yes internet image searches can be useful I there's different a couple different ones so I I don't know which one you're exactly referring to but in terms of like the images that piece just an NGC use like the true view those are actually very useful as are the Heritage Auctions and Stacks Bowers ones a lot of organizations will take really nice high quality photos that will allow you to kind of back search those coins and find more information so if that works for you 100% that's a great way to find information especially if it's a piece that you really have no good starting points on that happens with a lot of tokens I don't really click tokens myself but I know a lot of token collectors who use like a token catalog.org and they'll back search their tokens via image especially if it's like a very unidentifiable token all right next one maybe I should say who this is because it is a personal question so my name Ross Johnson I don't know if you're friends does Kellan get teased for having a numismatic last name does he refer to his collection as the Kellan Horde? I don't refer to it as the Kellan Horde that's an excellent idea I don't get teased for it I actually get a lot of like appreciation for it actually people like that just works out very nicely and it does part of the one problem I've run into is my my numismatic oriented Instagram account which is on social media the username is KellanCoin and I've had people meet me in real life and think my last name is and they'll be like that's like what a cool coincidence I'm like sorry it's not my last name is Horde and like oh that still works out and it does so I don't get teased for it I actually get I get praised for it and I'm happy about that good good Kellan what do you feel the future of the hobby will fair with younger how or I think it's how do you feel the future would of the hobby will fair with younger persons who are more used to high energy high speed entertainment yeah that's an excellent question that's kind of the question to everyone's minds all the time I think it will fair well to be honest with you young people who are interested in coins are going to be interested in coins regardless of the internet it's mostly up to individual hobbyists and organizations to figure out how to meet young collectors where they're at in my opinion earlier today so I don't know how many of you are familiar with TikTok it's a video app that like 500 million young people use and not even just young people like of all ages and and I across my page as I was scrolling came a coin TikTok which I actually hadn't seen before I'm surprised by that and the coin account the account had 1.3 million followers and they just talk about coins and so you're meeting these young people where they're at and and every every video gets tens if not hundreds of thousands of views people are when there's live streams people are engaged and interested so I really think when you meet young people where they're at they are genuinely curious everyone passed through coins I recently looked at it and the 2008 state quarters had 147 billion Americans collecting them mostly younger people and so as long as we're translating those younger people and bringing them more into the full of the hobby I really don't think you're going to have an issue people touch coins very frequently and and and once you show that connection there's also been a lot of news and headlines recently about really high expensive coins selling that tends to bring attention to the hobby as well I'm not sure if it's positive or negative if people are like drawn away but like go on multimillion dollar prices but either way just bring attention so I'm really not worried about young people joining the the key for me I'm also not worried about young people leaving the hobby I think once you get that initial engagement and hopefully it's somewhat a level engagement my ideal marker is you get them to come to December seminar I think once you get that you're pretty much hooked for life but even if they leave basically data seems to show that they come back in like their 30s they'll like they'll kind of quit for college and starting a family but their 30s or 40s or especially when their kids move out of the house in like 40s or 50s and they have some disposable income going on that is when collectors really seem to come back in so getting that initial hook in collectors is key and Abby Zekman who I think her talk was on that so you guys can go watch that but really I'm not I'm not too concerned about it I don't and there's been concerns for decades about getting young collectors involved so far they have not borne free okay next one what is your favorite coin? don't have a favorite coin I that'd be like picking a favorite child but I'd probably be more inclined to pick a favorite child I don't I don't have a favorite coin I do kind of like one up there is the 43 steel scent just because it's a very unique piece and I love the story behind it all right does early American Copper Society deal with metals such as Libertas, Americana I don't know if you know the answer to that I don't know yeah so early American Copper Society deals with half sense large sense in some colonial pieces they don't overlap with metals but if you are interested in metals join the Metal Collectors Association the MCA and then so the Token and Metal Society as well yes yes so those both work Token Metal Society is a little bit more token oriented but they do have both Metal Collectors Association really is has basically the top scholars in the entire hobby what tends to happen with Numismatists as they go up in years especially Numismatists who started like collecting U.S. federal coinage they shift to like kind of the weird stuff they get bored with the date mid-mart collection they shift kind of the weird stuff and that tends to be metals because that has a lot of the cool history and stories and crazy context and so you basically have about 20 of the top minds of the hobby leading the MCA who publish a really fantastic quarterly publication and who are weirdly accepting of the of questions and inquiries that you send to them so the MCA for a young Numismatist is like $5 a year for an adult like $35 a year been totally worth it and you'll find just such fantastic information awesome is there a way to search for a particular currency notes sales history by using its serial number there is I believe you can do that on the option on both the option websites by serial number I'm like 90% sure don't get upset at me if it can't because I don't know as much about paper money but there's really quite a lot of different ways both online just with search engines with Google and with auction company websites to search up paper money and I imagine serial numbers probably one of them


Thanks for coming in. Hello. Good to see you. On this rather blustery day of growing your say, it's a better day down Glenclaw than it is here. Oh, no, it's the other way around. The other way around, yeah. We had rain until just outside letter, Keddie. So you're in luck today. I'm the best of it. And what about up at Fana today? Beautiful day in Fana today. Very good. Glad to hear it. All right, then let's talk, first of all, about ideas scale. And what you do run on is you provide Irish language courses and cultural activity for the holidays for adults in the guilt out. But there's a lot to it. Your courses cater for all levels, right the way from beginners to advanced. That's right, yeah, because I think a lot of people think of doing Irish courses. They think back to Irish college. But really what we're doing, we cater to adults only. And we do Irish language courses. And they are, at the same time, holidays. So people come, they learn a lot. You might be a complete beginner. You might be a fluent speaker already. And you're coming. You learn plenty.  But then some people who might be so keen on the classroom side of things, the idea right from the beginning was to give them other options to learn the language. So there are a lot of these bilingual cultural courses. So you can come and you can do hill walking for a week. And obviously some of the best hill walking in Ireland here in Donegal. And you can do that. All of our instructors are Irish speakers. So if you come and you're fluent, you can interact with them, with the other people in the course. If you're just learning, it's a nice way to dip your toe in. You'll pick up a few things. And you'll enjoy it. And there's hill walking, painting, tapestry weaving, geology, archaeology, environment, lots of different things. And we've added two new ones now for next year. Joe McGuigan, Derryman originally now in Donegal is doing an old style step dance and channel stance and course. And we have a singing course coming up as well with Collette McDevitt. So it's a great mix. And it gives people a chance to find something they're interested in. Well, it is a great mix. And with that long list there, everybody's bound to find something that'll be of interest to them. And then you find that you're learning the language and you don't even realize it. Absolutely, yeah. And that's the thing.  You come, you have a great time, and there's the courses. And then in the evenings, there are kind of activities every evening. You might do dance on one night, poetry another night. There might be a talk. You might go for a trip. So again, you're getting to see the county. You're getting to meet the local people. And you're having fun when you're doing it.  And then what's interesting about all that is the kind of group of people that is attracted. Because for me, the thing that is really interesting about it is the kind of mix of people that we get doing the courses. Because you'll get about 60% of the people who do the courses come from the island of Ireland. So from all over, from this county, North South, down to Kerry Cork, everywhere. And the other 40% could come from anywhere in the world. So we have, I think, this year, it was 24 countries. So, and you're talking about all over North America, England, Czech Republic, South America, different places. And so you can meet anyone, anytime. And so you have that kind of mix of people all together in Glen Column Kill. Beautiful scenery. It just, yeah, it makes for a great time. And for those from other countries, I'd imagine that they're equally interested in our heritage and history as they are in the language. Everything, yeah. It's amazing what brings people to do things like that. So some people are very interested in the language. Some people are, you know, those kind of people that speak eight languages and they want to do another one. Some people come through to the music. They might have found, you know, they found Clannad or they might have found Irish music. And that kind of gets them in. Some people, some people, it's the history and all that. But I'll give you an example. There's people who go to just scale with no Salvatore. Well, Salvatore came as a student. Maybe, I'm not sure when exactly, maybe 20 years ago, a little bit more originally. Attend in the courses. Give him a couple of years. He's now, every summer, he teaches an Italian cooking class for us as part of our summer school through Irish. For afternoons every day for a week, you know. So that's the kind of things that happens. And yeah, yeah, you know, we enjoy it. No end. And it's not just in Glen Column Kill. Yeah, and that's been a very important side to it as well. So we're based in Glen Column Kill. That's where our center is. But early on, we started doing courses in Glen Inje, Glen Finn, and Cumming there, the beautiful national school in Erron Cumming. And so we do two weeks there every summer. And also we do a special course, Sivrisnogelga, sort of the richness of the language for kind of aimed at people who are already good speakers, but just want to really add to it out on Tauri Island. And that's a really, and that's up for 2023 next year. And that's already half full. It's one that people just love. And you know, it's a really, it's a really special place. One thing I must say as well, that's really nice about these awards. It's great to see in terms of tourism in the county, the group of the three of us that are nominated, very strong in terms of Irish language as well. I just mentioned that you can go to, if you're going to Fan at Lighthouse, you know, you can do either staff. They're really great Irish speakers. It's something really unique we have in our, you know, in this county to have strong, great looked areas and people really appreciate that. And so it's great to be promoting it. For people to come and do your courses from other parts of the country, how does Irish differ here to say the Kerry Irish? Is there more of an appetite for Irish or is it just mixed? Yeah, it's, there's a bit of a difference. There are like, there are dialects. And so there's no more than in English. There are different accents. And those of us from Donegal sound a bit different from Kerry and we use different words. A lot of people, when they're learning, get very, get kind of worried about that. And they say, oh, I had a teacher in school and they had, you know, conic to Irish and so God, I don't know if I can learn all Irish. We really don't, we, first night when people come, we tell them you don't need to worry about that. It's not that different. Also, you want to be able to speak to more than one third of the other people that can speak Irish. There's three dialects. So it's important to learn. And like we take teachers, we take lots of teachers from Donegal, from all over the county, but we take teachers from all over the island, and all over the world at the minute. And we're doing online classes now. Two of our teachers, two of our teachers, they're Irish people, but they're living in Italy teaching the online class. So it's an amazing world. And that's some of the funny things that have come in since COVID. And yeah, well, so much more online right now, but they, there's such a demand for them that they fill up very quickly. Often do, yeah, like it's been really, it's been really noticeable this past two years.  But yeah, there's always been a huge demand. So this year we had about, we had a bit over 1,500 people in total, but the point I always make about Age of Scale, especially to kind of tourism bodies in Ireland, they're always looking at visitor numbers. What's the big thing for Age of Scale is more or less more than 85% of the people who come and do a course in Age of Scale stay for seven days. They're week-long courses the most, and we do three weekends every year as well. So they're staying for seven, so 1,500 people is almost 10,000 bed nights, as they call them, nights in bed. So, and they're staying in the B&Bs, they're staying in the local accommodation, they're going to the pubs, they're going to the restaurants. And so it's a really nice kind of tourism because we get to know them and so many people come back year after year as well. And make a connection with an area. Oh, absolutely, yeah.   So that's a nice, you know, it benefits us, it benefits other people, it works out well for everyone. Brilliant, well, other scales established in 84. Now, Amar, a fan of Lighthouse opened in 2016, if I'm correct. So, you know, a lot newer, but you've seen brilliant growth since 2016, year on year. Yeah, it's been really successful. We had, we opened in 2016, obviously, that was a big deal because Fan of Lighthouse opened in, well, was first lit in 1817, but for although almost 200 years, people hadn't really got past the gate even though it's like the iconic image of the area, people hadn't really got past the gate. So it was a really big deal in our local community that it opened. And I think it's really encouraged a kind of pride of place in people as well. It's now a landmark destination, it's got such great promotion, Falkshire Island really behind us, it's now firmly established on the Wild Atlantic Way as one of the main attractions. Yeah, we're a signature point in the Wild Atlantic Way. So obviously that has brought us great marketing, you know, nationally and internationally from Falkshire Island and Tourism Ireland. We're also part of the Great Lighthouses of Ireland. So that's another, helps us again. And now Udres and Gaelic, they're promoting this on Coast of the Gaelic. So we're linking up with tourism initiatives right down the West Coast of Ireland. So all those things, yeah, help reach more people. For those that haven't been there, just tell us about it. It's not just a case of going along and looking up at the building that holds the light, there's much more to it. There's a combination for a start. Yeah, so. You don't realize you can stay there. So essentially we offer guided tours of the lighthouse or there's a walk around tour as well, self-guided. And that gives you like the history of the lighthouse, the lives of the light keepers who don't exist anymore. You know, this is in the past. You know, some of the tragedies that see the shipwrecks and that, so there's a fascinating history around lighthouses and they're really magical places. And then of course you get to climb to the top of the tower, which is always like a wow experience. And wonderful views of, you know, Mallon Head in one direction and the North Coast and the other. And then as you say, you can also stay in the accommodation. So we've got three light keepers cottages, original cottages that have been renovated. Really sympathetically done, but you know, you have all modcans as well. And it's a very special place to stay. An authentic experience, even though you do have the electric kettle and the TV and whatever. Exactly, exactly. Yeah, you do have this feeling when you go in of kind of going back in time. So it's special. The accommodation is often booked out, it's popular. It's been extremely popular. We're about 90% all year round at this stage. And so really that is, you know, stop and paint. But it's the unique aspect of it. There's a chance that, like, oh, often do you get a chance to stay in a lighthouse. It is a really unique experience. Yeah, although we are finding that people are coming back as well, you know, that we're getting repeat people. So that's fantastic. And there's a gift shop there as well. So that's a chance for local designers and artists. Yes, we're very much about sustainability as well and promoting. Well, sustainability and the Irish language are two big priorities after what we do. So we have a limited cafe experience and a gift shop that is actually... Plans. Plans. We'll get to that in a second. Plans. Well, go ahead. We have plans. And also we've developed our gift shop now. So we know plastics and very much about local artists, local crafts people. You know, I think it's really important we are a social enterprise and it's not about hoovering up business for fan at Lighthouse. We will be measured on how we impact on our local community or that's how we see it. You know, we have a few bottom lines. So we are really about promoting local people and I'd say 90% of what's in our shop is Donegal Makers and that is from pottery to candles to children's toys across the board. Now, more than the Irish courses in, you know, that does this do... You take somebody that visits a fan at Lighthouse, the chances are it's not going to be the only place either on the peninsula or in Donegal if they visit. So it's great for... No, that's really important that we're sending people out. You know, when people come to stay with us, we are definitely promoting other initiatives in the area and eco-adventures and they visit the alpacas and in Downings and Climbmore and Hill and see our beautiful beaches and places to eat and all that. So, yeah, that's important. One works with the others. And we just touched on the plans there. There's plans to extend the cafe and more besides. Is that right? Yeah, so really the cafe shop space that we have at the moment, the visitor center space is pretty inadequate. It's very limited. So, yeah, we're about to submit plans now for an extended space, but it'll also have meeting conference space. We'll also have an arts space. So those things will help us to engage better with our community as well, to be able to offer workshops, to be able to offer special weekends of way that you can come and do a weekend doing something and staying in the Lighthouse as well. Brilliant. So there's, yeah, we have plans. And it's great at the location as well because it just brings people up to the tip of fan it and it means that they get to enjoy all the scenery and rather than dipping in elsewhere and scooting on by, if you make it to the Lighthouse, you're gonna see. On the edge of the world. And you're gonna see some great scenery. But yeah, but it's also really good for, you go in one direction over the Nock Alley Coast Road, truly beautiful scenery or the Mulroy Bridge as well. So we think we're ideally placed with the Wild Atlantic Way on one side and the North Coast on the other side. Yeah, absolutely. Okay, well, thank you. Thank you both very much. And we touched on your forward plans, Emer, in that this is gonna be big. Submit in those and hopefully get in the go ahead for that. So the future is bright. And as it is for you, Ronan, a big appetite for learning Irish, continued appetite for people who want to learn Irish. Yeah, well, absolutely. And we're kind of in the middle of a big change in a way because obviously COVID forced us to change. And the big difference now is there was a time when we were more of a seasonal business and the summer was the big time. Nowadays, because we're online as well, when the visits stop in the summer, the online classes start and we have about 125 people doing classes this week in the night times doing that. So that keeps us busy in the winter. And then it kind of attracts people in as well, makes them think about coming here in the future too. So it's a big new part of what we're doing at the minute and we're just trying to add to it as we go along. Brent, well, best look to you both. And best look to you both as well on the night. It's Friday the 11th of November and it says the annual gala book where the winners will be announced, but in a way, once you're nominated and particularly everybody's a winner. But the best look to you both. Thanks for coming in. Thanks very much, John. Household electronic and lighting waste? Recycle them for free with we at your local a-


Hello, welcome to lecture number 37 of the course quantum mechanics and molecular spectroscopy. As I told you in the previous lecture that you know we are going to look at some solved problems. So today I am going to talk about the problems related to rotational spectroscopy okay. So when you record a rotational spectrum, when you record a rotational spectrum you get you know numbers, B you know things like that. How do we interpret the spectra? And what you have to do to get the spectroscopy correct? One of the things that you do in the rotational spectroscopy, record the rotational spectra of isotope embers, what do I mean okay. Now if I have molecule HCl okay, now there are various isotopes that I can think of. So if I have HCl molecule then there are I can have one hydrogen 35 HCl or I could have one hydrogen 37 Cl. So 37 and 32 are isotopes of the chloramide or one could have its hydrogen and 35 Cl. So by the way this is also called D okay, deuterium is nothing but the isotope of hydrogen with two molecular atomic mass or you could have two hydrogen 37 Cl okay. One could look at various isotopes and you see when you look at the rotational constant B or let us call it as B0 because at the equilibrium distance this is given by H by 8 pi square where I is the rotational constant, I is the moment of inertia sorry moment of and B0 is the rotational constants. Now how do you get P0 can be measured by experiment. So when you record the rotational spectrum we know that the separation between the lines so this is 2B, 4B, 6B, this is 0 to 1, 1 to 2, J values, J is equal to 1, J is equal to 1, J is equal to 2, 2, 3, 3, 2, 4, etc. And the separation between them is 2B okay this is pure rotational spectrum. Now when you have rotational constant B0 so that you can 2B or 2B0 can be directly measured from the experiment okay. So this is experiment but generally so this is B0 if you look at this thing it will come out to be in Hertz or second inverse or Hertz the in this case B0 is given the unit of B0 is second inverse or Hertz okay. But generally B0 is not measured in also measured in also measured in centimeter inverse so B0 is also measured in centimeter inverse when I do so you can do a quick conversion. So if I measure B0 in centimeter inverse then my B0 will now be equal to h pi 8 pi square c i where c is speed of light and what is i moment of inertia and i is given by mu r naught square. So where mu is the reduced mass r naught is the equilibrium distance okay so this is the necessary. So in experiment it turns out after doing the experiment in one experiment what they have found that 1 h 35 cl the value of B0 was equal to 10.44 centimeter inverse and similarly value of 1 sorry 2 h cl 35 the value of B0 is equal to 5.39 centimeter inverse. So you see when I substitute the hydrogen vitrioturium there is a drastic change in the value of the B0 okay this is what I call as isotope effect. Now let us use this and try to evaluate what is the length or the equilibrium length of the h cl molecule or d cl molecule. Now we know that B0 in centimeter inverse is given by h by 8 pi square c i which is also given by h by 8 pi square c mu r naught square. So I can slightly rewrite this equation in r naught square is equal to h by 8 pi square c mu B naught. So I am going to use this formula and plug it in and see what I will get. Now h is nothing but 6.626 into 10 power minus 34 joule second you can see this you can verify if the formula is dimensionally correct okay. Now 6.626 into 10 power minus 34 is the value of h that will be in joule second is not it? So it is an action constant joule second 8 pi square c is 2.997 since I am looking at this centimeter inverse I am looking at speed of line in centimeters per second. So that will be 2.10 power 10 centimeters per second into mu okay mu I need the reduced mass. So if I look at 1 h 35 cl then my reduced mass will be nothing but 35 by 36 into 1.66 into 10 power minus 27 kilograms. So that will be nothing but 35 divided by 36 into 1.66 into 10 power minus 27 into value of B naught which is 10.44. So I can do little bit of equations and change I mean do algebra. So this 34 and this 27 will cancel and then you will get 10 power minus 7 and this 10 power 10 and that will this I can cancel and then write 10 power 17 okay. So what I will get is that 6.626 divided by 3991.031 into 10 power minus 17. So that is going to be the value just you can do the math I have already done it. So this will be now be equal to 1.660 into 10 power minus 20 so r naught square. So I take a square root r naught will be now equal to 1.88 into 10 power minus 10 meters.  So this is r naught will be nothing but 1.288. Similarly for if I take the same value r naught square is equal to 6.626 into 10 power minus 34 divided by 8 pi square into 2.997 into 10 power 10. Now instead of I take 2h 35cl so dcl so that will be nothing but into 70 divided by 37 because 2 into 35 is 70 2 plus 35 is 37 into 1.66 into 10 power minus 27 into now the value of the rotational constant is 5.39 centimeter inverse. If I do the math what I will get is r naught will be equal to 1.286 Armstrong. So what I get is the following for 1hcl 35 that is hcl with 35 set of r naught will be equal to 1.288 Armstrong and 2hcl 35 that is dcl r naught is equal to 1.286 ok. So minute changes in the isotopes do affect the lens ok here the changes in third decimal ok. So you should have that kind of calibration that will allow you to differentiate the bond lens at third decimal ok and mind you that the rotational spectroscopy is the only spectroscopic technique by which one can measure bond lens ok. Now this is just an example so let me just tell you quickly ok how we can use this problem to look at something else ok. Now the other problem that one can look at in the rotational spectroscopy is let us suppose a carbon monoxide molecule CO. Now CO can have various isotopes one of the isotopes the standard one is 12 CO 16 ok. The other one will be 13 CO 16 the third one will be 12 CO 18 of course the fourth one will be 13 CO 18 there is also oxygen 17 but will not get into that but these are the four possible isotopes that one can isotopomers. So these are isotopomers of CO. Now I do not have data for this so I will go to ignore ok. So for 12 CO 16 and 13 CO 16 and for 12 CO 18 the B naught in hertz is given by 57898.4 mega hertz and this is 55346.3 mega hertz and this is 55135.3 mega hertz. Now I can always converts mega hertz or hertz into centimeter inverse so if I convert this will cannot to be 1.9318 centimeter inverse and this will be nothing but 1.8467 centimeter minus 1 and this will be nothing but 1.8396 centimeter inverse. Now if you look at if you look at the difference this is less than 0.09 centimeter inverse and this is less than 0.01 centimeter. Now if I have to distinguish between this and this then my resolution of my spectrometer should be less than 0.01 centimeter inverse or at least half of them or this should be 0.09 centimeter inverse. So if I have to distinguish the isotopomers of my carbon monoxide the microwave spectrometer the spectrometer that records this rotational spectra ok should have very high resolution so that I can separate out this isotopomers. By the way oxygen it is in not available but carbon 13 is 1% natural abundance ok. In fact there are spectrometers in which you can record the spectrum of this using natural abundance ok. Now when I use this data and convert ok so I can use this data to convert I know the values of B naught so these are B naught in centimeter so by the way when you got in centimeter it is also called B naught bar ok. So I have this in megahertz and also in centimeter inverse I can use the value B naught is equal to H by 8 pi square I this is nothing but H by 8 pi square mu R square or naught square or B naught bar that is in centimeter inverse is H by 8 pi square C I R H 8 pi 8 pi square C mu R naught square I can use one of them and plug in the values of mu of course when you have these the values of mu will keep changing then it turns out when you calculate all this will get R naught for 12 C 16 O is equal to 1.1285 angstroms and you will get R naught for 13 C O 16 is equal to 1.2735 angstroms and R naught for 12 C 18 will be 1.2 sorry 127, 1.127, 1.1285 I might have done some mistake here you can recheck. So this is how one can use the rotation spectroscopy data to calculate the bond lengths ok and one also has to calculate bond lengths of several isotope amounts to get the statistically correct answer ok we will stop it here thank you very much.


So I'm here to bring you the 2018 design team announcement of the people who made it on to the team I had to cut back the team a little bit this year for well for this next year and I moved anybody who's been following my channel or following me on social media knows I moved I moved I didn't just move across town. I moved to a different state and It was expensive. It was time-consuming. It took I wasn't really able to do much art for three months I know you all saw content here on YouTube and other places. It's because I had stuff done ahead Most of my art supplies were packed for the move I had a small amount out, but I really wasn't able to be very productive because I was too stressed out so Consequently sales slumped a little bit in the Etsy shop, which I'm trying to fix by the way The link is below if you want to buy any of my products And I so I need to work on that and that's on me, but I also need to cut back the team a little bit It was a little big But I have to say the 2018 design team is the best one yet I love you all very much and I look forward to communicating you with you in the future Whether you're on the team or not because you all did a great job And if you all have any questions, you know who you are you can come to me at any time so that being said we have a brand new design team of six members and Some of them are returning members who decided they liked it and I didn't drive them too crazy. And so they want to come back Anyway, so they're gonna come back and we have a couple of new members so That being said, I will link all of their YouTube channels if they have one which they do I believe everybody does in the description below You can go check them out like share and subscribe show them some love And I look forward to content from each and every one of them next year. I can't wait So we have returning members Wendy Ewing Peg Robinson and I'm looking down because my list is down there Leslie McGrath and Margelle Shelley Holy cow. I hope that's her last name and I didn't get it wrong. Let's see. Yeah Margelle Shelley. We have new members Vicki Brown and Chelsea Now all of them were chosen Because I feel like they have an artistic voice I would like to be heard with the products that I make that's the main reason I chose all of them. I felt like they had a unique voice. They could bring not only my products to all of you but they could bring New ideas and ways for using my products to you in a new and unique way They also have channels and artwork that I just love and adore and I personally love to watch so that being said Welcome ladies. Welcome. Welcome. Welcome and congratulations for being on the team I look forward to working with you all next year and it is gonna be so much fun All right, that's it for right now. Everybody like share and subscribe To all of their channels if you will and mine if you haven't yet check out the Etsy shop the link is below There is new products and content coming out Pretty regularly right now. I at the date of filming this I'm talking to the manufacturer of the rubber stamps So we're working on that and getting those plates done and ready and prepared They may not be ready for the first, but they should be ready shortly after I'm also working with the stencils and I Am working on some fabric and I am working on some new digital downloads. So anyway, so there's new stuff coming. It's pretty exciting I think we're gonna call the design inspiration for next year modern atomic It gives you a little bit to me clue. Anyway, that's it for right now Go out and have a great day. Do something nice for yourself and maybe somebody else because you deserve it They probably do too. See you later. Bye guys. Bye


For the past couple of weeks, I've been playing through Dragon Ball Z Infinite World's Cell Saga on Z difficulty, and the Androids have been destroying me. Yeah, spent a few weeks on the Cell Saga, and we're only just now getting to sell, and I am very worried about what this video might be. So let's not stall anymore, Android 17 against Piccolo. I have a bad feeling about this one. I'm worried that this might be the entire video. I hope it's not. I hope I am incorrect on that, but this Sister 18 did not let me go easy.  Oh my God, this man has health bars. And I forgot how to play the game slightly. All right, can I transform? What is it? Is it a five bar transformation? Oh, get off me. Get off me though. All right, what's the transform? Five? I'm already transformed, aren't I? No, there's no way I'm transformed. How do I transform? Oh, it was down circle.   I wanted you to think that. Get off of me. No. Oh my God, did you see the way I just upper gutted him? Oh, get off of me. Oh, oh.  Wait, am I gonna first try this? So far, so far, not bad at all. Yeah, block that. Yeah, power blitz yourself. No. Oh, no, no, no, no. Wait, is this just the same super that 18 did? It's the same animation. It's the same animation. What are you going to break my arm too? Yeah, maybe in a minute, I failed.  Oh, no. Oh my God, that animation was kind of sad. I'm not going to lie. I'm maxed out again.  Oh, I'm going to try it. Oh, you better keep running. Keep running for me. Hell's own grenade. Oh, I'm ending this. Oh, yeah. You thought your super was good. Come here. No, no, no, no, no, no, no. You thought I missed. No, I feel a run. This is the end. Oh my God, that was it.   Damn, light grenades. Just a basic in this one. Light grenade is like mad nice in every other Dragon Ball game. Dude, I genuinely think 17 loses here. Let me make it look Canaan real quick. Oh, wait. Destructive weight. Oh, we canceled out. This is just like the end of it.     Yo, 17. I got him looking a little goofy. This is the end 17. Take one of those. Oh, oh, grab me. Okay, it's getting a little close. It's getting a little close. I don't know. By the way, I don't know how this is going to be edited, but this has been a long man regardless of if I get him on the first try. This has been a really long match for some ungodly reason. No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, please. Please let me block it. Please let me block it. No, no, no, no. Don't Future Gohan me. I can't get Future Gohan right now. The defense. Oh, I got it. I got it. I got it. I got it. I live these. I live these. I live these defense wins. Dodget, what do I do? Like roll away. What's the defense look like? They just missed. I'm not even there. No, I'm just blocking. We live those. Oh, easy. You live those to get off the ground, Piccolo. No way. Just die. Dude, just die.    Get out of here. Get out of here. Flicker jab. Yo, I kind of, I got that EPO with it. Hold on. Okay. That wasn't that bad. That wasn't that bad. That wasn't that bad. I thought that was going to be really bad. What's next? Now I have to wait. Huh? Who's fighting 17? Absorb 17. Oh, I get to play a cell. All right. Well, we might have won with Piccolo, but cell has clearly still made it to the party. And now we have to beat 17 again. And I've never played cell once. Oh my God. Oh my God. Oh my God. Why is he? Okay. Now you're going to get saucy. What happened? It also sucks because cell has literally no abilities right now. Literally. Cell has nothing except maybe a combo combo to launch. Oh my God. So kind of calm. He's a combo based character. What the? All right. I'll trade that. I'll trade that. I'll take these trades. Dude, I'll take these trades. I need key. Also, why is cell seven foot five? My guy is tall block that easy block. Block that too. Get off me. Why? Why he got read? Why he got combos? Oh, you try to go into his ultimate. This is what the piccolo and 17 fight should have looked like.  This, this has been an annoying game that was annoying. That was 17 is saucing cell. My God. There we go. Big damage. We love to see the deeps getting close. I'm going to absorb him and become perfect. That's the only way I can get to the good fight. I need to do Super Saiyan 2 versus cell. Now that would could have been at least 500 more damage, dude. There we go. We found the route. That's the route I'm using from now on. There we go, baby. The route is solidified. You're telling me that's not the most optimal route in burst. No, that's optimal. All right. He's almost, he's almost knocked out and we got the help. Nope. That's it knocked out. Take some free damage while we're there. Go into the, oh, this should have been the vanish combo. He's dodging the vanish combo. He's good. All I know is coming. I mean how I can't, I can't do anything with that anime. It's going to get pretty anime here in a second. Oh, baby. I'm bringing him home. 17 is catching nothing but losses today.  Actually, if I hit him with a calm, I mean, I might get knocked out. He blast might knock him out. He's perfect guarding everything. I could have been a win if I just stopped punching it. It's over. 17, honestly going to be honest, bro. Not your day in the sun. This video was not for you. Are they going to make me do TN versus that? Dude, if they had a TN mini, please have a TN mini game. Let me body sell real quick versus sell. What? Hold on. Let me run over there. Battle with sell. He's sure to Android 16. Oh, I can't. I can't. I can't know. Where's my explosive finish, dude? I'll tell you what. They're letting us try a whole bunch of characters though. Look at 16. Why does he charge like that? Block that. Come here. Oh my God. 16 is a man's man. Look at this. Damn. He hits hard.  Oh, now I'm the one doing the big boy grabs. Yeah. Hold on to that. And here, take one of these. You didn't want to get hit with a rocket punch, bro. He's scared. I'll just trade blows. I don't care. You think I care? You think I care about this? Now let's go. Throw hands out. Throw hands. Oh, rocket punch into the teleport.  Look, I'm just looking at him staring. Okay. Okay. Okay. Okay. Okay. Relax. I bet you I still win this. Oh, never mind. If you was, why was he not stunned? We stun him. We Hell's Flash. We win the game. That's the strategy right now. Right here. No. Right here. And then I was out of key. That is so unfortunate, man. Literally the most unfit. And I didn't reset. So I have to say unfortunate. Absolutely unfortunate. You know what? Let me start off a 10. Number two with my other special ability. Oh, my rocket tackle.  They gave him the lariat just like in fighters. Hold on. Does that mean I can just spam if I do this? Rocket tackle. Oh, he dodged it. Oh, the recovery is huge though. Look at the way he locks his arm back into place though. Oh, that is clean. That is actually clean. What? He's playing Tekken 7. Why are all of his combos 80 hits? Is there a reason for them to be 80 hits? I blocked that. Get off 16.  Cameraman, do you mind doing your job? Somebody take the Cameraman off payroll, man. He can't play. That's good. That's good damage. Okay. Okay. Okay. Okay, dude. I'm going to get you to halfway stun. And then I'm going to, and then I'm going to Hell's Flash.  The plan is simple. First, we hit him. Oh, that's good damage though. No way you blocked that. No way.  Jesus, 16 does damage. Get puny Cell out of my way. Let's go. Cell is done for, except for we'll probably be right back with a different cell fight. Yeah. Go ahead. Just unlock it. Oh, the TN! Yeah! Now only TN can stop Cell. Attack Cell with the Neo Try Beam. Attack for a set period of time to clear the mission. Woo! Finally, dude. Yes! Is this going to be the thumbnail? I love this part of Z, dude. This was TN's big moment. Let him know TN. Say something to him. He's a whole lot of heat. I've got to try. Stay scared, Cell. Where are you going? Don't run. Look at him. He's running for his life. I died. Sorry, Chiu. You're... Goodbye. TN, what did you do? You passed away from one. I used too much key one time. Don't fly up here. Damn! He's so... Yo! No, no way.  And he's hit the flu up. Shoot him. This is the hardest mission in the game. How do you shoot him? He just keeps flying up. This is the hardest mission. Do I have to hold him down for 150 seconds? There's no way I have to hold him down for 150 seconds. I'm going to cry. What? Oh, I get it. I see, I see, I see, I see, I see, I see, I see. I get it now. I get it now. This would be easier if he didn't run like this. Don't fly up here. He's so fast. He's so fast. He runs so quickly. This is the hardest mission in the game. 150 seconds, it is.  You stay right there on the ground where I can see you like an insect. Like the insect you are, Cell. No, stay down. You worm. I'm the worm.  Yeah, keep scaper around. Nope.  Nice try, Bozo. Hey, you know what? Take another one. Why not, right? Why not? Why not take another one? Eh, not going to happen. Cell, stay on the ground. Do I have to try to fly up? Nope. Not this time. Whoa, whoa. He just take a try harder next time. Okay. So that was annoying. Oh, don't even try it. Nope. No shot. He dodged that. I had the reeds. I had the reeds, man. Okay, okay. Fine. It's better for me if I hit him out of the air because then I just get more time off to heal. Like that. That was perfect. Just got to shoot him before he takes off, man. No. Got him. Got him. Got him. Got him. Got him. Stop. Stop. Where are you going, Cell? You stay right there. No. Sorry, buddy. Can't do that one. Look at him trying to take off quick again. All right. I'm liking this. This is our best run so far. Sadly, I haven't done the calculations. I don't know how long I can keep him pinned with full health. Try again. Nope.  Oh, that could have been bad. He's trying to run. Oh, my God. I barely had him in my sights. 10 seconds. All right. After this, I can keep him on the ground. You're done, Cell. You're done. Stay down. Stay down. Stay down. Stay down. Yes. Yes. Please get away from here. Run. No. It's the end. We still got that S though. Okay, that was that was difficult, but it was just about timing, keeping precise aim and a little bit of luck. I'm not going to lie. Cell just wasn't running around that much. Oh, no, dude. Please tell me I don't have to play as Vegeta again. No, man. No, I don't want to play as Vegeta. Every time I play as Vegeta, it goes horribly wrong. A cut scene. Let's go. Super Vegeta. We're not actually going to get to play as Super Vegeta, but still we're powering up. That's cool. Oh, give me that. Do the kick. Do the kick. Okay, we just kind of lay him out. You have some skill.  I got some skill. I didn't battle against 18 for nothing. Oh, look at him. Just look at him in the eye. I didn't even feel it. Looks like my training made me a little too strong. Yeah. Looks like that time with Trunks in the hyperbolic time chamber did pay off. You're just Vegeta. Oh, you're just Vegeta. Oh. Super Vegeta. Let's go. Super Vegeta. You know, after the iconic thumbs up pose, I can't lose. Oh, I get to start in Super Saiyan and everything. Oh my God. He can't even touch me. It's actually Kanan. I can see why Vegeta wanted to let him go perfect now. It's too easy. Hold on. He's going to throw Key Blast. Then I'll make it look easy again. See, I told you it's too easy. You know what? I kind of want to let him go perfect too. Why not, right? At this point, it's a little too easy for me. Oh, he thought he had something going there.  I want this to be a one try. This is going to be a one take. I'm super Vegeta. I can't lose. Oh, big deeps. Come on. Oh my God. We're evening it up. We're evening it up. I haven't even laid in my big bang attack yet. For some reason, they didn't give me Final Flash, which would have been sick, but...  It's over, Cell. It's over.  Vegeta's big bang attack. Now you're finally seeing Super Vegeta's real big bang attack. Oh, it's over. It's over. It's over. One try on Z difficulty. Yeah, I got to let him go perfect. I got to let him go perfect. He's no match. He's no match. It wasn't even close. It wasn't even close. I destroyed the entire Earth to make a point. Now I'm going to give him... Oh, your power is laughable. Yeah, look at him raging. Oh, he's so mad. He's so mad. I have my perfect body. Fine. Go on then. Get this perfect body. Wait, you said perfect body?    No, it's over. We lose. Game over. Vegeta just misplayed heavy. Oh, my God. Look at this transformation. This is actually sick. With Cell's new perfect body finally obtained, the Z difficulty challenge is only just getting started. Find out next time on Dragon Ball Z Infinite World.


Thank you so much. One message I would say or I would take now is really to embrace ICT in everything we do. Back home in Rwanda we call ICT a utility. It's not a luxury. It's very necessary because it is an enabler to all sectors. So it is something that will unlock all other sectors if ICT is embraced in all sectors that we do. What struck me most is about innovation. Much more I'm interested in innovation because I feel with existing infrastructure for example if I take an example of my country Rwanda with existing infrastructure we've increased our penetration of ICT with the neighboring environment. All this is in place. What do we do with ICT? We want to embark on much more on innovations especially for the young people and involving women and youth in ICT. So what struck me most it was a discussion on innovation.
