We all know that iPhone cameras are pretty awesome these days, certainly better than built-in cameras on the Mac, so wouldn't it be great if we could access all of that power from our iPhones and bring it as a camera source into our Mac? Well, there's a really easy way you can do that with an application called Camo by ReIncubate, and that is what I'm going to be talking about in this video. Hello, welcome to Take One Tech. My name's Alec, and in this video we're going to be talking about Camo from ReIncubate, which is just a little app that you install on your phone, an app that you install on your Mac, link them together, and there we go. It gives you full access to all of the power of your iPhone's built-in camera and just presents it as a new camera that you can use on your Mac. Now, this is great if you are a heavy Zoom user and you want to upgrade basically your image quality, you can do it effortlessly using Camo. It's also great because it means that if you are mobile, then you've, generally I would guess, got your mobile phone with you, and so it means that you've got this thing with you in your pocket and you can instantly get this great image quality, plug it into your MacBook and you're good to go. It's also great if you want to actually just use it for your YouTube videos or something like that, or maybe add a second camera angle to your YouTube studio. That's what I'm using it for. Actually, I've got a top-down camera, which is an old iPhone XS that I had lying around and now it has been put to better use instead of in the landfill or the recycling wherever it might go to basically give me a top-down shot. Previously, I was using a Logitech webcam and I can tell you the image quality is far better than I was getting from that. So the same would be true if you are using your Mac's built-in camera or maybe an external Logitech camera, something like that. You will get a much better image quality from Camo using your iPhone's built-in camera, especially if you've got one of the newer models. So that's what we're talking about today. So let's dig in and have a look at it. There's not much to show you about the interface on the iPhone. You just go and download it. I'll show you where to download it in shortly. And then I'll also put a link in the description, but you simply just download it. You open it up and that's all there is to it. There's no settings or anything like that on the phone itself. You just then need to download the software for the Mac and then plug your phone into the Mac using a cable and it will just appear there as an option for you to choose. So probably easy if I just actually show you how this works in practice. So I've got Camo open on my desktop, on my Mac. And here we go. It's just the basic interface is like this. I've got the picture that I'm getting. So as you can see, this is my top-down camera from my iPhone 5XS.  Now, if you are using the free version, there are there are a few limitations, but I'll explain those as we go along. So first of all, we've got a few different menus. In fact, let me just collapse some of these so that we can go through them one by one. So we've got a camera settings menu. If I click on that one, then we can choose the device. So I've only got one plugged in at the moment, but you can plug in multiple different phones. So you can choose which one you want. It's telling me the battery level there. Then you've got the mode. Now, this is, as I mentioned, an iPhone 5XS. So it's quite an old phone. But if you are using one of the newer phones, then you would have access to things like portrait mode. So you would be able to select that if you so wished. Next is the lens. I've only got the choice of two here, obviously, because I've got basically a front-facing lens and the back-facing lens, the selfie lens. Or is it the other way around? I never know which quite which is supposed to be the front and back. There we go. So that's that. And then we've also got the focus. Now, at the moment, it's set to auto, but you can actually do a manual focus. So if you are going to have this fixed in one place, looking at a specific spot, then you can actually do a manual focus. So you can see that as I move the slider, it is adjusting the focus of the shots. You could actually just get that exactly as you want it. Because obviously, if you're on manual focus and something comes into shot, then it will focus on that instead. And incidentally, the focus on these is pretty quick, considering as I say, it's just a phone camera. If I move something into shot, you can see it focuses on that and moves back. Certainly, a hell of a lot better than the Logitech camera that I was using before, which simply actually, it just wouldn't focus at that range because that's not what it's made to do. So then you've got the resolution. So you can change the resolution, obviously, up to whatever the maximum is of the particular camera. So if you're using one of the later models, then you'll probably be able to go up higher than 1080p. And then also, you have the audio mode. Now, there's basically two choices here, either the main camera microphone, or you've also got the bottom microphone, the one that you use for voice. And then obviously, you might want to use a separate microphone if you're using this for zoom or things like that, wouldn't necessarily recommend this for that. But there you go. At least you do have that choice. Next, you've got some presets menus. If I click in here, there is some presets. Now, I've already got one here for iPhone 5 XS because I've actually created my own presets, but there is some other ones here that are for different presets in terms of the image quality. So if I come down here, you can see it's changed that they're all a bit gimmicky, really, to be honest. The real power of this, I think comes from actually creating your own presets and just sort of tweaking the image a little bit. So I'll just come back to that one for the moment. Next, you've got image transformations. And so you can mirror your image like this. And then also you can add a watermark or take it off. Now, if you are on the free version, it will have this camo watermark there, and that will be there permanently. You won't be able to take that off. But if you have upgraded to the pro version, then you will be able to remove that watermark or if you wished, you can add your own watermark there as well. Next, we've got rotation. So if depending on how you've got your camera mounted, you may find that you need to rotate it to orientate it in the correct way. And then down here, you've got a zoom as well. And if you zoom in, then also you've got this window down just below, and you can just click and drag this to actually position it exactly where you want it. So great if you've got the camera on a tripod or something like that, and you just want to crop into a certain area, then you will be able to sort of adjust the positioning of it that way. So that is pretty much all apart from that one that I mentioned about the the watermark that is all going to be available in the free version. However, there is a pro version, as I mentioned. And with a pro version, you also get this menu or you get this menu with the other one, but you can actually change it. So you can do some adjustments. So for example, you can change the exposure settings. So shutter speed and ISO. And then you've also got the white balance so you can change the colour temperature. And it does actually tell you what the temperature there is in Kelvin. And it tells you these different settings here as well. And then also the the tint. So you can change the tint. And then also here the flash level. Now if you toggle that one on, basically what that does is it actually turns on the flash. So it's actually switched on the flash. You perhaps can't see it here, but there we go. It's actually turned on the light underneath as part of the the camera flash. And then you can turn up that to turn up the intensity of that light. So that is now basically turning up the level of the light. So that's what that one is. If you want to have the use the built in flash to illuminate whatever it is you're filming. Next down here, we've also got other image adjustments. So we can adjust the usual suspects. Brightness, hue, saturation, contrast, gamma sharpness. And so just obviously toggle those ones on. And then you can play with those to your heart's content. And then once you've got all of those things set up, you can come over to your presets. And if you're in the pro version, then you can save that as a preset. So create new preset. And then just give it a name. And then that will then appear in your list. So that's a great way. If you've got different setups or you're using it in different settings or different different ways, then you can just create presets for all of the different adjustments that you want to make and then come in and select those as you wish. Once you've done all of this, basically, this just shows up then as a source. So if you go into zoom, it will just appear there as a camera. And it will be labeled as camo by reincubate. So you can just basically go and select that as your source then. I'm using this with e-cam live. And so I've got it as my top down camera. So if I come to my top down shot, I've used e-cam to actually crop in slightly to it. But basically this is now just, yeah, just the shot straight out of it. So it is a lot better than what I had previously been getting from my Logitech webcam as I just showed you the sort of speed of the focus is much better than I was getting on that. The difference in sort of image quality is certainly clear to me as well. And it just works much better for me for a top down camera. I definitely will use it as well, like if I'm out on the road or something like that and don't have my equipment with me. If I'm doing zoom calls or things like that, it's definitely one up on the built in Mac cameras. So that's what I wanted to tell you about today. But let me before I go just actually tell you where to get it from as well. But before I do that, if you have found this useful at all, don't forget to go down and hit the like button. It really does show me that what I'm doing is having some sort of impact. And if you found it extra useful, then you can always go and find my Buy Me Coffee page at buymeacoffee.com slash take one tech. So also if I just come over to my screen sharing now, I'll just show you this before I sign off because this is obviously the crucial part where to get it from. It's reincubate.com slash camo. And then you can download the app there. This is the icon for it. So this is what to look out for in the app store app store. You can just go to the iOS app store and find it anyway, or you can come here and download it. And then you'll also download the desktop version. So on the website, if I scroll down, you can see that they've got the download for Mac OS here as well. So that's for the desktop version. Once you've done that, just plug them both together and then you are away. If you do want to go for the pro version, which to be honest, I highly recommend, depending on your use case, it's just $40. Or if you pay monthly, it's $5 a month. Or you can get a lifetime license for $80. So like I say, highly recommend it. It's been great for me. And yeah, it's certainly a great way to unlock some of the power of your iPhone on your Mac. So I hope you found that useful. If you did, don't forget to like, subscribe and comment. And I'll leave a link to some other great app videos over on the right hand side. Whoops, press the wrong button then. And until the next time, I'll catch you later and have a great day. Bye bye.


People who work in the field of Dawah, their children and their relatives are sometimes, a lot of the times, inspired by affliction. It's amazing. I want to tell you a true story here in London. There was a brother who came to me one day, older than me, and he gave me a big hug in the Masjid.   He said, I want to tell you what happened. My son's on drugs for so many years. He's actually really lost case, no Salah, nothing for many years. He says, I actually tried so hard, I took him to South Africa. I took him to South Africa, I took him here and you know what, nothing helped him. I tried with this sheikh, that sheikh, nothing helped him. He said, one day, I'm cutting the story short, one day, he told me, Dad, I'm joining you for Salat al-Maghri. And he came to the Masjid, Salat al-Isha. He said, I was so scared to ask him. He says, he came for Salat al-Fajr. After Fajr, he sat with me and we were having tea.  He says, I was listening to a talk by Mufti Mehm. Now that's like the dad's enemy, you know. The guy says, it's time, it's about time you quit and he says, I think he's right. So he says, you know what, Allah used you for my child. I said, well, Allah, it's not me, it's Allah. So I learnt and he learnt and I learnt as well. Sometimes we might not agree 100% with someone on certain matters. But Allah may use that person to do work you could have never done. We just, we need to support each other wherever there are matters. I always like to, I mean, these guys know me, I always like to address matters, and tackle them, you know, if we can with our friends in private, so to speak, rather than expose and make it like, you know, a huge fitna and so on. But Alhamdulillah, one thing I must say is your approach, Sheikh Mufti, is really, it's really a very good approach. I think there's legitimacy, there is, you know, it's evidence-based and at the same time it's very balanced. Thank you, Sheikh. Allah grant you lots of growth and stoop. And as time passes, you know, we tend to expand in our way. The message will never change, but the way we actually, you know, portray it will actually keep up to the times. InshaAllah. But it's a powerful message. Thank you, Sheikh. Means a lot, means a lot. We try. That's like nothing else. Yeah, Allah understands. Not much we have, you know. And I've realized sometimes people misunderstand and sometimes people take things out of context. Some of them genuinely, genuinely they don't, you know, they have a misunderstanding. And sometimes it's not so genuinely. Sometimes it's just a swipe. You've got to be... A swipe. It's just a swipe. And the swipes happen for many reasons. I want to tell you my experience.  I'm not too sure how old you are. And I've got 10 kids, Walillahi Alhamdulillah, been in the field for about since 1999, 2000. And what I've learned is, you know, the field of da'wah is a very, very... It's a very tricky field because Allah tests you from every angle until you realize and you know clearly that it's only Allah who you owe yourself to completely, totally. And that's what it is. And the idea is we should have and we do have a feeling for all people, those who are sinful, those who are vulnerable, those who think like us, those who don't, we care for every one of them. So if you care for everyone, you respect everyone, you actually put yourselves in their shoes, you try to reach out to them. I always tell people, I'm so excited when I'm given the opportunity to preach to people who are totally out, you know. And when I'm preaching to the preached, I don't get that kick. You know, that's why they say, oh, you went into this Masjid, that I said, look, I'll go to any Masjid because the idea is to talk to the guys. You know, I'm not... Then people use the term al-wala wal-bara to try and tell you you're not allowed to go here. I said, listen, this is da'wah. Da'wah is totally different from al-wala wal-bara. I'm going in to do something. I'm not going into little, you know... So Allah makes me... But in order to get the message across, and it's very clear, I found... And I'm not saying it because it's you in front of me. This was even before I even... Before I knew I would meet you, I felt within myself that this is a brother who actually is a breath of fresh air. Simply because of the way things are performed. May Allah make it easy. May Allah make it...

It's primary election day in Minnesota and after a heated campaign season with many important races, a high voter turnout was expected and that did happen today. This year there was a new polling place in Brainerd at the Ascension Health Sports Center. Voter turnout was slow to start at this precinct with 101 ballots being cast by two o'clock in the afternoon. Given the light of the intensity of the race that's going on right now, I would expect us to be higher than that at this point of the day and not really sure what the reason is. We're still waiting for our big rush. We've had a couple small rushes in the hours we've been going. Many important primary races were decided today showing who will go on to the general election on November 6th. People were also able to vote early as part of Minnesota's no excuse absentee voting policy. This is the third primary where this policy has been in effect. It's important to our community and to our state and our country to come out and vote and when you turn 18 are you gonna vote? Yeah. Absolutely it's our right and our duty so here we are right. Bemidji area voters also at the polls today. In addition to the statewide races, voters were narrowing the field in city council and Beltrami county board of commissioner races. Just a few of the local races were tracking tonight. If you enjoyed this segment of Lakeland news, please consider making a tax deductible contribution to Lakeland PBS.


This is a chosen tea. Well, I didn't choose you That's a hot mug guys. Hey guys a little bit of an interesting review here I've been actually listening to one of Bernard Cromwell's novels sharps tiger in particular It's been a real joy to listen to it again I've read several of the books But the main reason why I'm enjoying it is because I was a very big fan of This series now if any of you don't know about the character Richard Sharp This is kind of the thing that really put Sean Bean on the map and it's a very strange Sort of show Because it's not got seasons. These were technically TV movies But he made 14 of them This was about a character that Rod Cromwell wrote about called Richard Sharp who is a soldier who? Rows up from the ranks. He was a normal sergeant and he rose into Lutenancy and this was a big unheard-of thing because most of the time in the British army you bought are you earned your higher captaincy through money wealth family what not not through actual Skill if you were not a anything better than a common surf So that's pretty much the tribulation that sharp goes through in this series as a man who? Isn't an officer, but he has to act like an officer It's something that really did put Sean be on the mark Bernard Cromwell actually liked Sean Bean's interpretation of the character so much that this movie was released in 1993 and the books have been out for about five years prior but After filming this episode this first TV movie Bernard Cromwell actually changed the aspects of the character to fit a little bit more with sharp more So just physical because in the book Sharp had black hair Whereas Sean Bean obviously has blonde hair. I did love watching this series when I was a kid My dad introduced this to me least to say watching at least the first movie Sharp's rifles the aspect ratio is a bit of a a bit of a Bit of a problem obviously all of them are like this. They were all made back in the early 90s They didn't exactly have a big budget as you can see with watching this first movie But what should be commended is and they actually did shoot in Portugal and they did shoot around areas where there was conflict Which from a location standpoint is an absolute bitch So you got to give them that this is the movie that we see sharp not only save Arthur Wellesley and become an officer But he also gets introduced to the chosen men who don't like him at first He and Harper get into a slugfest the first meeting that they have But they slowly grow to respect him and admire him while Sharp learns how to be a proper man of action and Officer to his own men all the while he's working with the Spanish spies slash rebels to regain control of this Portugal area and And he meets his first wife, which is they don't get married in this episode But he finds his first lover of the series and I shouldn't have said that because it's not a very good road down there Definitely it has aged in terms of what its budget was the fight scenes are kind of silly The fact that this is supposed to be a show about you know ramrods and gunpowder These guys are firing off shots like bang bang bang bang almost Some of the fight scenes are not exactly the greatest You can tell that some of the stuntmen didn't know how to use a horse because at one point all these French Guys come into a courtyard and they just start spinning in a circle and they're getting shot at so it's kind of funny as aside from that the character dialogue is still pretty witty between them and You can see that they were starting this like It had to start off this kind of poor for the show to get started because as Further episodes go on the budget gets better the acting gets better these special effects in the fighting get better so it's a very rough start admittedly for those of you who are Ever interested in this wanting to see what started Sean Bean's career off Just like you know the first episode is rough But the second one sharps eagle is one of the best ones still So I hope you guys continue with me as I watch these I'm gonna try and watch this series I meant to watch it actually when I was recovering from my surgery But I just felt really spurned to watch it now We'll see how fast I do this because you know We are also waiting for me to finish supernatural season one So we'll see in the end my final rating for sharps rifles is a three out of seven I have to give it that because it's just aged so poorly It doesn't hold up to the other episodes and it's kind of a bit weak start our off But again, that's literally budget constraints the next episode Movie TV thing will be a lot better And I'd love to talk about the how the aesthetic of that just was possible in the first place Anyways guys, I hope you enjoyed this review If you did leave a link and if you're interested in more maybe subscribe Otherwise, I'll see you next time Thanks for watching the video. It's been a while But I'm happy to say the click is finally getting back together in an all-new movie Thanks to a successful Kickstarter campaign, but we are still asking for your support You know nits you can't get more money unless you offer questionable favors Yeah, unless of course those favors involved the ladies guy By support. I mean getting the word out guys Oh, well, couldn't you find it better means than this guy only seems to talk about a supernatural or hold a coffee mug real awkward Why didn't you ask a Kardashian or something? Yeah guy get in with the ladies guy. Hey, he's trying to help out Like you've been trying with Kimmy Burton. I've seen job of the hut finish a marathon faster.

Hi everybody it's Sam at Mixed Up Craft, thank you for watching today I just wanted to come in and do a kind of a quick video, I just wanted to show you this really cool, it's called the Dewcross Papermainia Sweet Treat and it's an A4 Ultimate Dica and Paper Pad. Now I did share this briefly in my What Did I Get video and then I wanted to do a separate video on it just to show you in more detail exactly what you can do with these. I have had these kind of packs in the past and you just literally have everything you need to make cards, gift bags and then there's all kind of pre-made little boxes in there and envelopes and things like that. So yeah so this is the A4 one and then what you get, your first sheet is all these stickers, you've got your alphabet and numbers and you just peel them off there and you can see they come away and then these ones are beautiful, I love the font on these and again if I just lift it off they just peel straight off and you can stick them onto your projects so I thought that was really handy and then you have there's all the rest of the alphabet and the numbers and then you get all these little kind of pieces that you can pop out. So this is like a little tag so you take this piece out here, now like I said in one of their other ones I've had, can't remember the theme but they had these in so you just fold them over then you have a little tab on each side which is where you add your glue and then you pop out the middle bit and if you imagine you stick all that down like so and then you just put out a corresponding little tab here so you'll have enough of these tabs we've got one two three four five six and then you've got one two three four five six so you just find one that's going to match and it will slide in and it just makes a really cute little gift tag like so. Now you can add these in your planners and things like that if you want but I think they look really nice kind of hanging from a gift bag and then you can write two and then as you know they can pull this piece out and then on the back you could have a little message as well so they're really sweet so I'm going to be making everything up in this pack I'm just giving you a brief little overview and then I'm going to have some fun and make it all up and you've got these little tags here as well I think they're just extra decoration I will find out then you've got the bows I've used these before again they're brilliant really quick to do so again if I just take this one out they all match so there's that one and then it's matching pieces here and again I'm going to curl it and do it all properly but you will curl those around stick the back sides like so and then that whole thing sticks on there now you'll see there's these little joins if you grab yourself just a little nail file you can just literally buff them off or you can trim them with a pair of scissors I'm sure how well it's tiny see just the little joins there like I said I just tend to just do that and just buff some off straight away or yeah trim there is a little hole there through the middle as well so you can add some string around it as well or some little little diamond tee or something in the middle but aren't they cute just to kind of you know set off your gift boxes and bags and stuff so again I'm going to make all of the bows up then you've got all these trims which again are nice if you wanted to add say one of those bows with a belly band I'd pull this piece off here like so if I put together that bow roughly and then if you imagine put it on this kind of strip and now you could wrap that around a gift box you could have it on your lid you can put it at the top of a gift bag or you could have that right through a card so there's loads of ways to use this and again I'm going to be showing you all the little projects that I've made then we get into the real thumb bits I love all these so these are all the different biscuits again if you're in the UK you will be very familiar well I guess again I don't know how worldwide these things are but for me these were like my childhood sweets which I briefly or treats even that I I briefly spoke about in my what did I get video but you've got the pink wafers bourbon biscuits which are my favorite rich tea fingers you've got the iced ring jammy dodger another iced ring that was like a shortbread thing I still can't remember the name and there's another iced ring and then you've got the tags and I just think these are going to look look lovely just popped out put a little hole punch in there put some ribbon have it dangling down you could do a real nice little cluster you know a little dangle hanging on something I don't know I've got all kinds of ideas but I think they're great these are your little gift boxes it's all done for you so it's perfect for if you just need to make really quick or if somebody's asked you for something and you maybe you know just haven't got the time to sit down and score and do it all yourself then it is handy sometimes to have these pieces you just go along and just burnish I ripped that a bit there I have to put a bit of glue on that one but you just go along fold everything in fold in your tabs on the side there you can fold in the bottom so the good thing about this is you can make them all up and then they can store flat because you don't actually need any glue for this piece because you can see there how it will pop in once that's glued down it just all pops in and then this here just folds in like so you get a really cute box but now you can decorate it you've got all these sentiments you've got little sweets so again I'm going to go through and show you just how much you can get out of one of these packs because they are very handy they're great if you want to do a party you've got you know your children your grandchildren and they're going to have their birthday party how nice you can make all of these up with this one pack so you get lots there you can see all these boxes in all the different prints and then at the end well not the end we're not even halfway through but you've got all these extra bits and pieces you've got little tags you've got little these kind of hole punch kind of protectors or ring protectors so you just fold that over and yeah you can see it decorates the side of your papers so again in your planners these are really good you've got all these tags to hang out you've got the biscuits again there which are great you've got these little tabs here so again if you've got a file you fold that over your page and you've got your bourbon biscuit I think it's brilliant but it's also nice to put on a card you can have a little tab on the side of the card so again i'm going to be making all these bits got that there then you've got these big envelopes these are always nice and handy these ones here just pop out again just follow the score lines like so and then you fold each one over itself just like you would seal up the top of a cardboard box like so again you can pop a little bit of ribbon around that but then these pieces here you can pop inside and you can write a little message on them so it's almost like yeah that's like the little card but you can write something on the back there and that will sit inside they're just lovely just really fun so you've got more here so these ones are slightly different so these are well I guess more traditional style envelopes so this one here fold in those sides and then you've got the curved piece at the top so you'd fold that one in first and stick those down actually I'd do it that way stick the sides in stick that one down yeah and then that one will stick over the top and there's your little envelope so how nice will that be hanging off like a gift bag or a gift box for example again more bits and pieces there then you've got these sections you can make little mini albums you can make an organizer you've got like a to-do list just a little note to say notes then you've got these little pockets like so this one folds over this one folds in on itself so you put glue on there you'd fold this one up so you put glue on there and there fold them in all in and then this is your top one like so and then you've got these little bits and pieces that you can add into it but again just makes a nice little gift card case or you can you know add it into your mini albums all kinds of stuff so you've got quite a few of them and then you get onto your papers so I'm going to make some gift bags with these got that great paper there two of each of those sheets so you've got this one here you get three of this one so again I'm going to make a gift bag and I'm going to make a card to match and again this one here I thought that one because you've just got the one would look really nice a scrapbook layout so I'm going to keep that one spare I may not do show anything with that one but I will eventually do a scrapbook layout with that because I just love all the sweet treats of sweet treats around the outside then this one here again I've got two pieces so I'll make a gift bag love that one there be another gift bag and then you've got the sprinkles more sweet treats it's making me hungry this paper pack and then you've got your planes another one there with some of the same images the pinks and then at the very bat you've got vellum beautiful vellum really really lovely that matches all of those papers really really fun I love the sprinkle one once you put this against white it really pops as well so that is a quick overview of what you get in one of these bumper packs there is so much in here and I am now going to make as much as I can with it just so you really get to see exactly what's in there but like I said I think these are perfect if you just want to kind of make them all up and keep them all spare so they're ready to go when you need them but also if you've got a party then this is all you need because it will do everything for you you could even make bunting out of the big sheets of paper so you could have decoration there as well so yeah so I'm going to make up as much as I can okay so I have had a really really good time making lovely little projects with this collection so I had an idea I'm going away on holiday with my girlfriends next week and I thought it'd be really nice to give them all a little treat something to just put maybe by the bedside so we're staying in a really nice barn so I think I'm going to do what I am because I've done it but we're all going to have a little bag each here I'll show you what I've done with them all in a minute and then what I've done to remember the holidays I've made a mini album with all of this collection so with the paper I've made these gift bags and I'm going to make one here now so you'll get to see how to make these really easy just simple little kind of paper bag gift bags that's what we call them and then on the on each one I have one of the envelopes that come with the kit so you saw those and you just pop it out put it all together it's really easy and I'm going to put a little note in here a little card which I'll do off camera and then I've just got these little bits here so that one says you're a real gem and then what I'm going to do with the stickers here is I'm going to personalize it so for example this one here can be for Haley so I'm going to put H for Haley okay and then that's just going to go like so and then I have added the bow along the bottom with the trim that come with it as well and I've just finished it off with a little gem and the peg was from my own stash so that's what I've done with all of them and then inside are these boxes so they're the boxes that you make with the kit and I'm laughing to myself because I didn't have any and I had to go out and get some some of you might already know what I'm going to say but when I saw the size of these boxes I thought to myself I'm pretty sure they're going to fit a tonic's teacake and they fit it perfectly so how cute I've put these ones with the little bow on top and then you open it up and look inside it fits like a glove it's literally meant to be so everybody has a little tonic's teacake and then also I'm going to fill the rest of the bag up with just little sweets that are on this kind of collection so I might put a little bourbon biscuit and a custard cream in there and then when we have a cup of tea in the morning then everyone can kind of dunk their biscuit in the in the in their tea I just think it's a really nice little gift to do and I know my friends will love it they will say oh god that's so you Sam what have you done you're so sweet kind of thing because yeah I kind of do that stuff when we go away I'll do like the silly little gifts so yeah I absolutely adore it so I have used so much of this kind of kit and they're the rest of the little boxes there with the tonic's teacake in and these are going to be little spares that I'll just give them all as well because there's enough for us to all have to each so the stickers will be used for that and then in here I have used all the rest of the papers all the little cutouts I've used the vellum I've added the pom pom trim myself and also these binder rings and my own now this mini album is one that I made last Christmas and I'm going to link the tutorial for that up here so if you just head over to that then you'll be able to make this and it's dead simple and then even the little kind of ring protectors I've used on this so basically just open it up you've got lots of room for photos these will hold four by six photos and you can get up to 40 photos in this album so I am going to fill this album with photos of our glee holiday and then I will kind of give you a little I just do a little overview video just so you can see kind of how it looks but the nice thing about this is so inside here will be my photos and I always like to get my photos printed with a white frame so I can stick my photo directly on here I might do a little bit of journaling some of them I might have as four by four so I've got room to do a bit of journaling there but also what I like is that I've used the vellum in between so when there's a photo there and a photo here with the vellum in between the photos won't stick together so just flick through I've put little tabs on here says the bourbon biscuit tab again you can put a nice photo there or do some journaling another bit of vellum because if there's a photo there and a photo here and then you open it up and you've got a photo there and a photo there so there's like I said there's room for four photos on each page and there are 10 pages so again just flicking through I've got some more little tabs there and then on some of the pages I have done that was got to go in there and that one's got to go in there here we are this one here I have these little kind of tuck spots so I've used two of the iced rings there and just stuck glue just around the bottom parts and then I've got these little tuck spots so whatever photos or something I might have in this section I can write the date where it was what we were doing so we're going to do shopping and we're going to go out out have nice meals things like that so it's going to be lovely so I'll get some nice photos and then just added the little tags and stuff here and I just love how it's come together I like making these quick little albums and I think it's going to yeah it's just going to really tie things together it's nice and then these ones here oh that one seems to have stuck on it there we go I just put the little mini biscuits on the top of these little tags again I can write stuff on both sides there and they just kind of tuck inside and there's another little tuck spot there and this one here again so I've just used all those lovely little pieces that's a good one because I can put lots of journaling on that I think we can hire bikes as well so we there's a pub just down the road so I think we're hopefully the weather's going to be nice so we're going to hire bikes and go to the pub for lunch so that again I'll get some good photos so as long as they're okay I'll share some of them on here and then at the back here I've just put the notes little kind of cut out on there and I can just kind of conclude the weekend and write anything else I want to there and then finished it with all these lovely papers so again I was saying how great these papers are and it's always nice to make something that you get to keep so you always get to remember the papers because some people are like oh I can't cut into that I don't want to cut into it you must you have to then if you make lovely things like this for yourself to keep forever then you're always going to appreciate it so that's that so all that is left is this stuff here my stickers those number sheets because they'll be handy for you know other things and then that one there which was I'm going to do a scrapbook layout on these ones I didn't want to cut into them but I think I'm going to make one just one big gift bag with those so that is what is left out of all of that stuff and I've made some really really lovely things but now I just want to quickly show you how to make that gift bag so this is the one that I'm going to make for myself because I have to have one as well I can't miss out on those tonics teacakes okay so it's A4 size so you just it's just this is the default A4 that comes in the pack I haven't cut it down at all so long it comes in at 11 and a half so along the long side you want to score at one and three quarters five and a half seven and a quarter and 11 and then rotate to the short side and you want to score at one and three quarters now again you can make any size bag with this this is just the size I thought would be nice I wanted to get as many bags as I could from the paper as well as make the mini album so I've really tried to maximize the amount of projects I can get from this then you just want to fold and burnish all of those score lines okay then we need to do a bit of cutting so you want the you'll have where you scored at 11 inches that that'd be a half inch kind of piece left that needs to be on the right hand side and down in that bottom right hand corner you'll have this little rectangle you just want to remove that completely and then just cut a little wedge off of the edges there of that tab and then along all those score lines there'd be three score lines along the bottom you just want to cut up to the top oh sorry just cut up to that first score line and again move that one and then again that last one and then the squares you've got this square here and this square here you just again just want to take a little wedge off of those okay so that's what you should have very very easy next what we're going to do is we're just going to run glue just down this one here so along that half inch tab just want some glue this is paper it's not you know it isn't a thick cardstock so that's why I thought it was you know it worked well for just this lightweight little gift bag but again how lovely if you are doing a little party maybe for your grandchildren or for your own children or just for some friends party favours you know whatever this is a really really fun pack I'm really pleased I chose it and then I'm going to bring in so the one where you just joined your seam stick that one down first so and then I'm just going to add some glue onto each of my tabs so stick that one down there and then that one and then you're going to put glue on the one on the front and then that just sandwiches it all together okay and then you can just turn the whole thing over and just pop your ruler in and just make sure it's all stuck down okay and then your tab where you've joined should be at the back it'd be in the back left hand side there and then just bring in the tops like so just squeezing them together and just come down as far as you want really and you want to fold it over about half an inch and then fold it over again like so okay and then I've got my bow and this piece here and this is just to decorate and it's going to run along there so I'm just going to again run some glue and it's coming up about half an inch you just want it so it's got room for that bow to sit there we go and then I'm going to pop some glue on the back of the bow now because it's already die cut it's very very quick to assemble I done all of this in an afternoon including the mini album so you know you don't need to think oh you've got to put back a week to do all this because all the hard work's done for you so now that's that piece done then I've just got my little peg and my little gift tag there I might write a little note to myself because there you have it how adorable are these I cannot wait for my friends to see them I know they're going to love them I'm sorry to Louise and Katie who are my two other friends it's usually there are seven of us and unfortunately they can't make this holiday so guys you're going to miss out I'm afraid you don't get one of these treats but I'm sure there'll be plenty more times and then my wonderful album but like I said I will do a flick through that again because I'm going to have the name of where we stayed and the date and yeah I've got lots more that I want to do to that and fill it up of course so yeah so I hope you like this little kind of inspiration video showing you that lovely collection and a couple of tutorials as well because you've got the one on how to make this really simple little gift bag and also just follow the link for the little mini album that I showed you

enjoyed today please give me a thumbs up and subscribe to my channel so you get to see more thanks for watching bye


Give the people what they want. Give the people what they want. Give the people what they want. Your weekly movement news roundup. Somehow I don't believe this. I don't believe that this is show 139. I'm sorry to say this but it feels like show 239 because we seem to have done this forever and ever and ever. In fact, I was on a program recently where I was introduced right after Zoe finished a segment as the other host of give the people what they want. Well, that's where you are. Give the people what they want brought to you by people's dispatch that Zoe and Prashant and Vijay from Globe Trotter show number 139. Wow. Coming up to 150. Remember guys, as we come up to anniversaries, those selfies need to keep coming for us. I haven't forgotten.  I like them. We need more of them. Sudan five months. UN report Prashant says that the Sudan war is spiraling out of control. Millions of displaced Sudanese give us an update from that war. Right. I think something we talked about very early on when this war broke out that it risks becoming one of those conflicts. One of those wars which people begin to take for granted after a period of time. So we actually see far less coverage for fewer people talking about it now than maybe some months ago. But it's important to know that it has entered its fifth month and the human toll is toll has been catastrophic. We're talking about. I think 4 million people who have been displaced, at least 3 million of them, of course, internally displaced at least 1 million people approximately having to leave the country, many from cities actually because the scale of the conflict. And, you know, like in many of these conflicts which last over many, many months, what happens is that there is no aspect of life which is unaffected at this point. The health system, for instance, has drastically crumbled. We are talking about, I think, of the 89 main hospitals that Sudan has. Only 18 are functioning that too at partial capacity. And the other 71 are pretty much out of service either because of attacks or killing or, you know, the wounding of medics. Our colleague Pawan has a very good story there which actually lists the entire scope of the kind of calamities that people of Sudan are facing at this point.  There are people, for instance, who are undergoing dialysis, who are dying in numbers. And, you know, what is really a very horrific fact, the fact that in many cities you have corpses actually rotting because there is, there are no way to bury it and you have resident members of various volunteer groups, local resistance committees that were in the forefront of resisting Omar al-Bashir actually taking part in digging graves to actually bury these corpses. So, you know, this is the extent of the problem that is there. And I think the estimates say that about 20 million people are hungry and I think 6.3 million of the people are just one step away from famine and these are, you know, the UN numbers which again indicate the extent of the problem. So for many of our viewers, important to remember that this fighting is essentially between the Sudanese army and the rapid support forces, which is a paramilitary force, both of these forces controlling substantial amounts of Sudan's economic wealth, both of these forces have entrenched themselves over the years through the backing of many foreign countries to the backing of the western powers. Why the people of Sudan kept saying that they should not have a say in power. But these generals were very much backed by the foreign players who thought that these generals would be the way out to peace and democracy. And look where this has landed the people of Sudan at this point. And it is important to remember that these two forces are technically fighting over, you know, at this point, it's not even clear exactly what they are fighting to destroy each other or to reduce the amount of influence the other force has. But the people who are suffering are basically the people of Sudan and I think, for instance, if you go to the West Darfur state, which our report points out, the scale of the atrocities has been even much, much more in West Darfur than many other areas. And Darfur itself has a long history of being pillaged of its people being targeted by the RSS and associated militias. So very depressing anniversary, so to speak. And I think what is concerning equally is the fact that really is no roadmap in terms of negotiations. There have been quite a few ceasefire attempts in some of these ceasefires held for a week, three, four days, whatever. And then they collapsed because one of these ceasefire attempts has been held. And right now it's just complete deadlock at this point, except for very vague statements that talks need to be held. So I think a kind of conflict and definitely like I said, because of the people fleeing out of Sudan, it has already had an impact on neighboring countries and this is likely to continue in the coming months as well. So I think very essential to keep a watch on Sudan, but also I think essential to remember that the factors that led to it were the factors which the Wanda and these warnings were not heated. Prashant, Sudan to Africa's east toward the Horn of Africa, if you go west of Sudan, you're in Chad, if you go one country over, you're in Niger. Or in Sudan, possibility of military intervention into Niger. Niger, as we already talked about on this show, has had a number of challenges that it's faced in recent days. Now, this is the fourth country in the Sahel region after Burkina Faso, Guinea and Mali that's had a military coup. The military coup has brought a government in initially led by the military, now led in fact by a civilian, Ali Lameen Zain. Ali Lameen Zain was the minister of economy and finance until the government from about 2002 to 2010. He is a development economist has had a lot of experience at the Africa Development Bank, he's a civilian. Now, the problem is because of the coup the government that came afterwards suspended military agreements with France and asked France to remove its military forces 1500 of them also said that they would seize selling uranium to France very important for France's nuclear industry. They didn't say anything about the US military base in Agades Air Base 201, nothing was said about that, but definitely anti-French sentiment. Since Ali Lameen Zain came in as the civilian president of this government, one would have thought that tensions would dial down that they've said there'll be an election there's not a military ruler and so on. In fact, tensions remain high. Ecovas, the economic community of West African states, had said initially that they condemn the coup and so did the African Union. It's not just France and the US and others that condemn this coup. African Union also condemned the coup. You see, very interesting it's been a situation across the African continent that the French and the US are unlikely and unwilling to intervene with military forces of their own. We saw this in Mozambique where France asked Rwanda to intervene on its behalf a kind of Africanization of intervention. In the case of Niger it's again unlikely that French troops will be landing in Nigeria or any of the neighboring states and crossing the borders very unlikely. The French don't want a direct footprint. They want somebody to intervene for them. Who will this be? This is the principle question. Ecovas was mobilized. Standby force was prepared for two days. Defense chiefs of Ecovas countries met in Akra Ghana. They met on the 17th and 18th of August. Long meetings, long days. As they were meeting in Akra to discuss whether the standby force should intervene in Niger and in fact, what are the logistics? They were working mainly on logistics. The African Union came out and said no military intervention. That didn't mean they didn't condemn the coup. They just said no military intervention. Interesting statement. Fascinatingly, the Presbyterian church which plays a role in this region has also come out and said no military intervention. It's a very important development. But it's not just that. It's not just the African Union and Presbyterian church. Fascinatingly, and I find this very interesting, mass protests in Senegal, mass protests in Nigeria against intervention has also cautioned the governments. Then we heard a rumor that Ghana might intervene by itself without Ecovas. Excuse me. This now looks unlikely. But it's a possibility. Intervention remains on the table. The African continent simply doesn't need another war. I mean, there is, as I said, Chad and then Sudan. There's already a war there. If you go south beneath Niger, there are a number of conflicts ongoing, including in Nigeria on the borderlands of Nigeria. This is an important issue because the governments of Burkina Faso and Mali have said that if anybody enters Niger, they will take it as an attack on their countries. This could be a broad war across the Sahel. Right now, caution seems to be of the hour. How long will France tolerate this attitude of caution? It's to be seen. We are following it. People's dispatch is running story upon story about this. Globetrotter is going to run a number of more pieces on this issue. We are following this very carefully, including trying our best to get an interview with Ali Lameen Zain. If anybody can get us that, let us know. Zoe, we're talking about conflicts in Africa. Prashant and I went through Sudan and now Niger. There are some serious different kinds of conflicts going on in South America, maybe at the ballot box, whatever it might be, but things are quite crazy in Ecuador and Argentina. Last time you told us about an assassination. What's the latest? Well, yes, the two major countries right now in South America that are in the midst, in a sense of electoral processes and have had big shocks to the system. So I can start with Ecuador. As we spoke about last week, there was an assassination of one of the presidential candidates, Fernando Villavicencio, days after a candidate for local body from the citizens revolution was also assassinated. There are threats and rumors going around on social media who's next. A climate of serious fear, we've talked about this, that the levels of violence are rising when you assassinate a presidential candidate you get the sense that no one is safe and that if this was motivated because of their positions, then naturally someone else could also face the same fate. So there's been a certain climate of a lot of fear that has permeated, of course the final end of the kind of campaigning of the general elections that are going to happen this Sunday, August 20th. There are now eight candidates running for president and they had their final debate on Monday. I watched it. It was quite chaotic. A lot of it was focused. The first section was focused on security and it seemed like the candidates were fighting for who could have a more tough on crime standpoint because at this point with fear being the word of the hour, that is kind of the only guarantee they can give people. We know in that, you know, hearing analysis from sociologists from people who have been studying and following this that it really has to do with the broader degradation of society, the degradation of social policies, of breaking down, of pushing people into the informal sector of the boom, I mean Petro, Guzal Petro president of Colombia says that this has to do with the boom of fentanyl consumption in the United States. There's many, many factors but what the people are seeming to want to hear is security and that has meant that candidate Gantopi, who we've said is a mercenary, he's a member of the coalition in the Sahel in Ukraine, he has shot up in the polls and it seems to be like it might be a direct tie between him and Luisa Gonzalez who had been previously polling ahead of the rest of the candidates. So we're going to see what happens on Sunday in Ecuador but it does seem likely that a second round would take place. So we'll be definitely following that and hoping that the violence does not escalate across the Andes. Again, very, very concerning developments that took place in the primary elections there last Sunday. We saw that in these elections where people essentially vote in their different electoral coalitions, in some senses these coalitions use the elections to decide who's going to be the candidates of these different slates. Also it means that all of the different parties that want to run the elections have to get over a certain threshold but these are not binding elections in the sense of the different parties. So however in these elections Javier Millay from the far right Liberty Advances party took the largest vote share and he's been a candidate that people have laughed about.  I mean the things he's promoting and are promising to do are crazy in a sense. However, he did win the highest vote share in these elections. Many think that this is in response to kind of the lack of solutions and the lack of radical change really promised by the other candidates. Argentina has 40% of the population living under the poverty line. It had 100% inflation last year. The currency has evaluated. I mean it's currently every single day it's evaluating more people are unable to use their salaries to buy their basic needs. It's a situation of despair, it's a situation of crisis and the people feel that if you're not going to offer, I mean this is clear what the results have shown that if you're going to make few promises negotiate with the IMF say well actually you know we're just going to take this debt. We're going to sacrifice you know servicing the people giving them what they need then this is kind of the response and so from now until October it's going to be a mad dash by the right by the left to figure out what to do. People are very concerned about the possibility of a presidency. I think it will definitely go to a second round in Argentina but from now to October what is going to happen that remains to be seen.  That's not the most puzzling thing about Javier Millet. The most puzzling thing Zoe is that Javier Millet promised the people extreme austerity and one in three Argentinians voted for him. That's pretty puzzling. Equally puzzling Zoe and I've been following this a lot is Brazil but we're going to come back to that in a second you're listening to give the people what they want brought to you by people's dispatch that Zoe and Prashant the best reporting you're going to get on world news peoplesdispatch.org I'm Vijay from Globe Trot. I'm happy to be with you we're almost at a hundred and fiftieth show bring those selfies home we need them. Zoe has started to talk about Brazil. I watched Ja Pedro Stede love the landless workers movement march into parliament with a bunch of religious leaders women dressed in white these are people who follow various African religions singing chanting and so on. I watched clips of him speaking in parliament he was quite hilarious in his typical Ja Pedro Stede way confronting the right wing with humor. What's happening in Brazil with all these parliamentary inquiries? Yes it's been a very active week in Brazil specifically in the chamber of deputies in the congress because of these parliamentary inquiry commissions and we followed pretty extensively this session that happened against the MST this was installed in May and as we've covered this was really an attempt of the right wing to put pressure on the government to put pressure on the left they essentially called for this investigation that they say is an investigation in response to the land occupations that took place during red April which is a celebration of landless struggle peasant struggle in honor of 17 people who were massacred in Brazil during the land occupation in the 90s and so following these series of occupations they essentially called for this investigation to figure out the funding who's behind the MST despite this being extremely clear if you actually take a second to look but really again it was an attempt to put pressure on the MST and it has been going on for a couple of months they've pulled people who have clearly and openly expressed that they do not agree with the MST that they were part of it and had grievances there's been so much coverage of who actually these people who are testifying against the MST saying that they promote unsafe practices I mean saying all sorts of things people who say that they were felt unsafe etc the MST has actually said on one hand a lot of these people there's clear cases against them for example movement there are people who are accused of robbery and these are some of the people who testified but also using this hand paking of testimonies to say that okay and the entire 2 million person movement is bad is also methodologically incorrect and so Joao Pedro had been summoned long ago to testify and to respond to these right wing senators and as you said I mean members of congress it was I mean the joke on social media was that it was a class it was like going to school because they would ask him a question and he would respond with Marxist theory he would respond with explaining how the MST is structured its principles its vision its organizational going completely explaining to them the history of agrarian reform the lack of agrarian reform in Brazil saying that the reason that the US initially got ahead of Brazil is also because the US carried out extensive agrarian reform I mean for anyone who wants to hear a bit of a history lesson in 7 hours highly recommend checking it out its very very informative I mean the battle of opinion was clearly won by Joao Pedro he even made the right wing deputies laugh I mean his jokes were so funny and they were so on point and so intelligent and clearly showing the hypocrisy the ridiculousness of these right wing members of congress and their attacks I mean the point that we posted on People's Dispatch about when they asked him would they were questioning him about why he went to China accompanying president Lula as part of his trip a couple months back and they were saying well why do you go to China they were saying I wanted to learn more about their experience of agrarian reform the programs that they've done in the countryside organic production etc and they said well is there a similar movement to the MST in China and he says of course no because they carried out agrarian reform and if you want the MST to end you can just do agrarian reform and we would have no more issues so that was really funny but then yesterday to the January 8 acts where thousands of Bolsonaro supporters raided the capital, Brasilia destroyed property destroyed artwork so many acts of destruction in this day attempted to really incite a riot incite something a coup that has been under investigation and yesterday a hacker testified saying that Bolsonaro ordered him to try to hack the electoral system to spread information that the electoral system was faulty and that if he was not successful then he should try to expose personal conversations of the judge Alexandre Moraes if he was not successful but that these were direct orders from Bolsonaro given within the president's palace damning, damning, damning testimonies there's definitely going to be updates on that we'll be following in people's dispatch if there is agrarian reform it might help the planet that's for absolutely certain Prashant we're going to come in the last couple of you know minutes we have talking about Hawaii first give us a report Prashant I heard the number 1300 people missing and so on what is going on in Hawaii, how do we understand this terrible spate of wildfires right Vishay I think quite a few important aspects again when you talk when often the media covers wildfires anywhere in the world it's kind of almost portrayed as something sparked, something sparked a wildfire and then you know acres of acres of land were destroyed and after that there's rebuilding etc etc but if you go down into the structural issues that led to the wildfire in Hawaii I think a lot of very important aspects you know get revealed and I think two or three things to highlight one is the fact that of course like you said a lot of people missing over 100 people believe that and I think the number definitely is much higher because this was a number from a few days ago but I think two or three important aspects to highlight the fact that one is that this is a direct result of the kind of policies you can actually pretty much call them colonial policies that were imposed over decades in Hawaii which basically privileged tourism which basically privileged plantations which basically destroyed the local wildlife in the region and basically set up the conditions for this kind of disaster to take place and also of course there's also the question for instance of climate change as well which many countries in the world are experiencing but what leads to a wildfire like in Hawaii and the kind of impact it has on there you need to go back like I said to the policies of decades and we're not talking about say damage that's going to cost about 5.5 billion or something hundreds of thousands of residential buildings have been demolished and again there's once again a question coming up with the kind of buildings that are going to be reconstructed are they even going to be affordable what rates are they going to be built at all of these are very important questions there is a question of the poverty rate in Hawaii for instance of the fact that people really struggle to even make minimum wage in a number of places and all of this I think goes back to this sort of colonial history that is often kind of completely obscured when we talk about Hawaii of course often people talk about just another state in the United States and that's very essential to sometimes the activists there push back against that say that by doing so you're really kind of completely obscuring that kind of a history and it is during such disasters that this kind of a history specifically comes out especially the fact that to basically allow the tourism industry to sort of thrive the kind of shortcuts that were taken the fact that the tourism industry is still going on even in the midst of a disaster like this so I think a very overall a very dangerous situation there the extent to the disaster we had to be very clear is still not completely evident the impact of this disaster will only be known in the coming years it's going to be very expensive to even try to rebuild and even that rebuilding considering how development is taking place in Hawaii is likely to be very inequitable is likely to be focused more on the commercial sectors rather than on the bulk of the people there who are already suffering from already suffering from exclusion so I think when we talk about disasters often but the big question that comes out is what happens after a disaster how do for instance government institutions how do communities sort of what are the principles on which this kind of rebuilding takes place what are the efforts being taken to ensure that the impact of climate change can be addressed or even dealt with will any of these steps be taken or will it be back to business as usual in this case it will be back to tourism as usual and I think that is the fundamental question that people across Hawaii people activists are asking community members are asking and they are presenting a strong demand on this Hawaii is in the middle of the Pacific Ocean in recent months there have been a spate of wildfires with this prolonged heat wave that has struck well not just the Pacific from the Middle East Japan has had a very long heat wave temperatures about 50 degrees Celsius on a regular basis Canada not only the southern parts of Canada which are close to the United States but up there in the Arctic Circle experiencing a heat wave the world meteorological organization says over 600 wildfires in Canada mass evacuation order in the town of Yellowknife in the Northwest territories of Canada British Columbia town of Lytton had a record temperature of 42.2 degrees Celsius it is extremely hot for that part of the world on the other side Hurricane Hillary is expanding going to strike the coast of Baja California hit southwest United States they expect about 150 to 160 millimeters of water rainwater coming off that hurricane the world meteorological organization in all of this has produced a very important report which I was reading last night called state of the climate in southwest Pacific 2022 it's about their data from last year well what they show is that there is increased because of this disruptive weather there is increased marine heat waves that's their word and coral bleaching I've talked in this show before about coral bleaching the coral reefs of the south pacific have been bleached largely because of heated water and this has an enormous impact on marine wildlife the IPCC the intergovernmental panel on climate change had released a very important report a few years ago about species extinction the section on marine wildlife is chilling it has a lot to do with the water temperatures are going up well the WMO this world meteorological organization report shows that sea level rates will rise in that region in the south pacific faster than the global rate rising at about 4 millimeters per year global warming or ocean warming is going to contribute 40 percent to the sea rise because of the thermal expansion of seawater as water heats up it's going to take up more room they point out in this report the impact on agriculture is going to be enormous food production is going to be ruined as a consequence of this it's a very chilling report about sea level rise in the south pacific region highly recommend having a look at that report you know at give the people what they want we bring you the world as best as we can today's show was interesting because we started on the African continent we had two wars one war ongoing for five months in Sudan the other a war potential in Niger where there is a potential escalation next week tricontinental is going to release a red alert document on the situation in Niger we hope very much people circulated we are journalists but we also care very much about people very much care that war and climate change and things like that have solutions go back and listen to Ja Pedro Stediel's conversation in the parliament you can show that there are still rational people in the world where we give the people what they want brought to you from people's dispatch Zoe and Prashant and Vijay from Globetrotter see you and don't forget selfies see you next week

Thank you all very much. Well, doctors, Billigan, Hamburg, Allison, and Johnson, thank you for bringing your distinguished group to the White House. When I heard that you would be meeting at the Smithsonian to discuss U.S.-Soviet exchanges, I was eager to share my thoughts with you on this timely and important topic. First, I want to congratulate the Woodrow Wilson Center and the Carnegie Corporation of New York. Certainly nothing is more worthy of our attention than finding ways to reach out and establish better communication with the people and the government of the Soviet Union. For many months, I have encouraged the Soviet Union to join with us in a major effort to see if we could make progress in these broad problem areas, reducing the threat and use of force in solving international disputes, reducing armaments in the world, and establishing a better working relationship with each other. At the United Nations, at the Japanese Diet, at Georgetown University, and at the Irish Parliament, I have explained our efforts to reduce arms, particularly nuclear arms, and to establish a useful dialogue on regional issues. Let me describe to you some of the many efforts that we're making to establish a better working relationship with the Soviet Union. We've informed the Soviet government that we're prepared to initiate negotiations on new exchanges agreement, and we've completed our preparations for these negotiations. We've proposed to resume preparations to open consulates in New York and Kiev. We've taken steps to revive our agreements for cooperation in environmental protection, housing, health, and agriculture. Activities under these agreements have waned in recent years because there have been no meetings of their joint committees to plan projects. We've proposed that preparations begin for such meetings in order to increase the number of active projects. We're in the process of renewing several bilateral agreements that otherwise would have expired this year, and we've agreed to extend our fishing agreement for 18 months, and we're looking at possibilities to increase cooperation under the terms of the agreement. We've proposed that our agreement to facilitate economic, industrial, and technical cooperation be renewed for another 10 years, and the preparations begin for a meeting of our joint commercial commission. A U.S. Navy delegation held talks last month with their Soviet counterparts in accord with our agreement on avoiding incidents at sea, and we've agreed to extend this useful agreement for another three years. We are reviewing the World Oceans Agreement, which has been useful in promoting joint oceanographic research, and we'll give careful thought to renewing the agreement prior to its expiration. And we've made proposals in several other areas to improve dialogue, foster cooperation, and solve problems. We've proposed a fair and equitable resolution of our differences on the maritime boundary off Alaska. We've proposed a joint simulated space rescue mission, in which astronauts and cosmonauts would carry out a combined exercise in space to develop techniques to rescue people from malfunctions in space vehicles. And we're currently conducting another round of talks on consular matters, trying to improve visa procedures and facilitate travel between our two countries. We've suggested discussions between the U.S. Coast Guard and the Soviet Ministry of Merchant Marine on search and rescue procedures to assist citizens of all countries lost at sea. And we've made progress in our talks on upgrading the hotline, proposing discussions on potential nuclear terrorist incidents, on establishing a joint military communications line, and on upgrading embassy communications in both countries. We've also suggested regular high-level contacts between military personnel of our two countries. So as you can see, we've offered comprehensive and sensible proposals to improve the U.S.-Soviet dialogue and our working relationship. And if the Soviets decide to join us, new avenues would open, I think, for your efforts. It's still too early to judge the results. A few proposals are near agreement. Many others are still under discussion, and some have been rejected, at least for now. Meaningful contact with a closed society will never be easy. And I'm as disturbed as you are by recent reports of new measures taken by Soviet authorities to restrict contacts between Soviet citizens and foreigners. These restrictions come on top of intensified repression of those brave Soviet citizens who've dared to express views contrary to those of the Soviet political elite. The people of the Soviet Union pay a heavy price for the actions of their government. In fact, we all pay a price. When the Soviet government takes repressive actions against its people and attempts to seal them off from the outside world, their own intellectual and cultural life suffers. At the same time, the rest of the world is deprived of the cultural riches of the Soviet people. What would classical music be without a Tchaikovsky? Or literature without a Tolstoy or a chemistry without a mendyev? Civilized people everywhere have a stake in keeping contacts, communication, and creativity as broad, deep, and free as possible. The Soviet insistence on sealing their people off and on filtering and controlling contacts and the flow of information remains the central problem. When Soviet actions threaten the peace or violate a solemn agreement or trample on standards fundamental to a civilized world, we cannot and will not be silent. We cannot, well, to do so would betray our deepest values. It would violate our conscience and ultimately undermine world stability and our ability to keep the peace. We must have ways short of military threats that make it absolutely clear that Soviet actions do matter and that some actions inevitably affect the quality of the relationship. These reactions do lead to a decrease in contacts with the people of the Soviet Union, and this is a dilemma. However, our quarrel is not with the Russian people or the Ukrainian people or any of the other proud nationalities in that multinational state. So we must be careful in reacting to actions by the Soviet government not to take out our indignation on those not responsible. And that's why I feel that we should broaden opportunities for Americans and Soviet citizens to get to know each other better. But our proposals to do that are not a signal that we have forgotten Afghanistan. We'll continue to demonstrate our sympathy and strong support for the Afghan people. The United States will support their struggle to win the Soviet occupation and to re-establish an independent and neutral Afghanistan. Nor do our proposals mean that we will ignore violations of the Helsinki Final Act or the plight of Andrei Sakharov Helena Bonner, Anatoly Sharansky, Yuri Orlov, and so many others. The persecution of these courageous, noble people weighs very heavily on our hearts. It would be wrong to believe that their treatment and their fate will not affect our ability to increase cooperation. It will because our conscience and that of the American people and freedom-loving people everywhere will have it no other way. Now, I know these thoughts do not resolve the dilemma we face, but it is a dilemma for all of us. And I'll value your advice. You know, I don't think there's anything we're encouraging the Soviet leaders to do that is not as much in their interest as it is in ours. If they're as committed to peace as they say, they should join us and work with us. If they sincerely want to reduce arms, there's no excuse for refusing to talk. And if they sincerely want to deal with us as equals, they shouldn't try to avoid a frank discussion of real problems. Some say for the Soviet leaders, peace is not the real issue. Rather, the issue is the attempt to spread their dominance by using military power as a means of intimidation. And there is much evidence to support this view. But it should be clear by now that such a strategy will not work. And once they realize this, maybe they'll understand they have much to gain by improving dialogue, reducing arms, and solving problems. The way governments can best promote contacts among people is by not standing in the way. Our administration will do all we can to stay out of the way and to persuade the Soviet government to do likewise. Now, we know this won't happen overnight. But if we're to succeed, you must stay involved and get more Americans into wider and more meaningful contact with many more Soviet citizens. It may seem an impossible dream to think there could be a time when Americans and Soviet citizens of all walks of life travel freely back and forth, visit each other's homes, look up friends and professional colleagues, work together on all sorts of problems, and if they feel like it, sit up all night talking about the meaning of life and the different ways to look at the world. In most countries of the world, people take those contacts for granted. We should never accept the idea that American and Soviet citizens cannot enjoy the same contacts and communication. I don't believe it's an impossible dream, and I don't think you believe that either. So let me just conclude by saying thank you and God bless you for what you're doing.
