Hey guys, it's Nate, AKA The Foot Accountant. Welcome back to the channel. It is another Friday on FIFA Ultimate Team, and the question today is, are we getting a promo? There's been some stuff on Twitter that's been talked about. You know, it just seems like right now, EA would wanna drop a promo. So we'll talk about all that today. As of right now, people are saying we're getting a promo. We don't have a loading screen. We have some packs that have been added into the pack code. We'll talk about all that stuff today in this video. And regardless of whether we do or don't have a promo, I have some market movements for you guys that we can look at and we can focus on with some of the foot birthdays. I wanna look at those cards today and talk about some of their prices in this video today.  Yes, you guys watched the video. Thank you for all you guys. 10,000 subscribers on the channel is dope. Whether you've been here for one day or you've been here since day one, I appreciate every single one of you. Thank you for watching these videos and making it fun for me. And hopefully you're learning something from it and making some coins. That's what we're here to do on this game. But that's not the whole point of this video. So let's start talking about it, right? Are we getting a promo today? This is the stuff that was added to the pack code tonight via Foot Watch. And as of right now, we do not have a car design. We do not have any like pack designs or the only stuff that they've put in are some T-Fos and some packs. And these packs right here, this has got everybody thinking right now on Twitter. This has got everybody thinking about one promotion and one promotion only team of the season. Now I don't think people are speculating that that comes today. I would be very surprised if it did come today. But these packs are team of the season-esque packs because they're broken up by league. The only other time that we see packs like this come out into the game or usually the only other time is team of the year, which is when you have one set of cards with the team and then there's multiple leagues of course, right? I think we've had these type of upgrade packs come out before, but these are totally new. These packs are totally new. I don't think we've ever seen packs like this before. And these seem like the type of packs that they would try to put out during a team of the season promo. Now they might just be putting these packs in before team of the season just to get them in the code and maybe they're trying to fool us a little bit. But right now, whenever they put stuff in the code on a Thursday night, a lot of times we see that stuff on the Friday. So that makes us think, especially with some of what the other people are saying on Twitter, there was a leaked video of Sergio Aguero. Yes, like the Sergio Aguero was live streaming FIFA and he said, EA told me not to open my packs because there was gonna be new cards on Friday. So I don't know if that has anything to do that's where people are kind of getting their speculation for a promotion today. But what we have are these packs and I wanna talk about these. There's two different packs in here. It's called a five gold rare Premier League players pack. And it goes through I think all five leagues guarantees five gold rare Premier League players. That's pack number one. And then we have the gold Premier League booster which is a 10 gold players from the Premier League with four of them being rare. So both of those packs sound incredible. Imagine if we got those in like upgrade SBC form. Can you imagine going into the SBC section and knowing you're guaranteed five gold rares from a Premier League, that would be unbelievable. I doubt that would come as an actual gold upgrade because that would almost be like too good to be true. But still those are the packs that were added to the code. And that's making a lot of people think about team of the season. Now, do you have to panic sell? You don't have to panic sell. There's probably gonna be a ton of time before team of the season. Kind of like a Black Friday type thing where we do start to see the market trail off in price. But we'll talk about it more this weekend and possibly in tomorrow's video. If you have a lot of cards, upper echelon, maybe some icons, maybe like a headliner Neymar or a really high rated version of a player who could get a Tots card, we're gonna wanna start to look at maybe cashing out as early as this weekend possibly to get the most coins we can before some of those cards start to tail off into team of the season, which is one of the biggest promotions on FIFA Ultimate Team. So again, today we have a couple SBCs that are expiring. We don't know if there's anything that's coming that's gonna be new. Of course, as with people talking about stuff on Twitter, but as of right now, we have nothing confirmed at least on my end. If you're watching this video and Footwatch has tweeted out a pack code or a pack design, then that is after I've made this video and that's new information. So keep watch for that. They're at Footwatch on Twitter. They have access to the FIFA code and they tweet out stuff as we've looked at multiple times on this video series. But today on Friday, the mid icon SBC goes away, high rated SBC fighters continuing to drop and stuff is up for the weekend league. Now I wanna talk about foot birthdays because I told you guys, regardless of what happens today on the market, there's going to be market movements around these foot birthdays of these cards right here. Some of these guys didn't really go up today and I mentioned this in my video yesterday. I was actually surprised by how many of these cards didn't continue going up. Dacosta, look at this boys. I shouted Dacosta and I said, he's probably too high at 220K before awards. You might wanna take the coins and look what has happened. Dacosta is now down at 200,000 coins. He's dropping because so many people have invested in this card and now it is going down. I mean, they're still kind of breaking even because a lot of these guys bought this card at around 190,000 coins. But this is crazy dude. Look at all these fresh ones too. Look at these fresh, no games played. This is so funny man because this is obviously investors that are panic selling and they did not sell into the hype which technically was the best thing that the best way to do things here. If you didn't sell in the hype, it's okay, right? It is okay. But what I'm telling you guys is pick up on some of this panic selling, right? These are investors that are dumping their cards because they want the coins on this market and that is these cards are out of packs. They're no longer getting supplied. The cost to under 200,000 coins is honestly pretty crazy because he was 220K before awards on Wednesday night into Thursday because people love this card. People use this card. Some of the other cards are down too and the thing is with these cards, these foot birthdays, they're rare. They're not rare but they have a lot of demand. Some of the higher tier ones are rare. Douglas Costa, 548, he was 568. He was 570 at one point. Agstein's back under 50K. What about foot birthday team number one? Let me see some of these. Maxman's under 16, Mooney Ion's 145. Havertz is 349. Havertz was 370 earlier, bro. He was 370. Wow, Lucas Hernandez is 279,000 coins. Wow, man. This is crazy. Now I'm not laughing because these cards are down in price. I'm just laughing at people who are selling these cards because they invested and they're scared of a promo coming. If no promo comes today, then these guys are gonna shoot back up because nobody is, there's not as many people that are just holding these cards on their transfer list anymore that are gonna put them on the market trying to make coins off of them. So this is gonna be, if you see more panic selling, headed into 6 p.m. Friday and we know there's no promo coming, watch these cards because they will be viable for a rebound if you see a little bit more of a drop. Like if I see Lucas Hernandez maybe at 270 flat, that might be a go price for me. Cancelo is basically just over 200,000 coins again. If you did not sell these cards in the hype, which I definitely warned at, I did not think it was gonna be this severe though. Cancelo is 209,000, 210,000 coins right now. And again, you can see there's a lot of first owner, second owner, no games play. This is somebody who bought this card to invest in and they're not making money on it and they're taking their coins or they're making a little bit of money and they're just taking their coins. So if you haven't sold your foot birthdays yet, I don't even know if I would sell them, to be honest. I might just wait until tonight, Friday night is usually when the market is high for week and week, especially if we don't get a promo. You could hold on to them if you wanted to but the time to sell these was actually before rewards which I'm glad I shouted that out to you guys because hopefully you guys sold all your foot birthdays or at least most of them before rewards today and before all the stuff got put back into the code and now people that invest in this game are getting kind of quote unquote worried because of what's coming on the market today and what could be coming with team of the season. So watch the foot birthday panic today. If you see some of those cards drop more, please, please, please get on the market. Look for some of those cards. Again, Lucas Hernandez, Teo Hernandez, Muniai and Havertz, Cancelo. Lozano is 95K right now. De Costa at like 190, 195,000 coins. That card is gonna be 215, 220K probably at some point again depending on what promos we have and when team of the season actually is but these foot birthday cards are different, right? And they're gonna stay popular in this game because of the week foot and the skill move updates. So definitely take a look at these cards and if you see panic selling on them, this is what I was gonna say to watch for the panic selling on Sunday after these cards went away. Even I had to sell a Lucas Hernandez today. I bought $270, I had to sell at 291. So I made a little bit of profit but not much. I was able to sell these other ones around 300,000 coins which he was even higher before this but I just took the coins again and now they're even lower because people are afraid of the promo that is coming today, whatever that promo may be. So watch for more panic selling on foot birthdays because they are gonna be very profitable from here on out because nobody is not as many people. Some people probably still have them on their transfer list but way less people are just now hoarding them and looking to flip them for profit. So make sure that you've sold those if you had those in your club but I wanna talk about Thursday flips and then also I wanna talk a little bit more about Team of the Season to end this video off just to kinda get our minds right and just kinda refresh about what Team of the Season is gonna be. This is Lewandowski, I posted this on Twitter today, 441K average sell price between these five. I bought five of these at an average buy price of 381. So average profit after tax of like 30 something thousand coins a card I believe off the top of my head. So that's a banging investment right there. Five of those cards at 30K each, 150,000 coins we made right there on just those cards. Team of the Week investing was great today. I bought this Sun at 125, sold it at 134 so that's a decent flip, nothing crazy, like 20K-ish. This Halan was from earlier in the week, bought it at 155. This was the deal of the day though. Boys, I have not been trading with icons very much. I've just been doing my Sunday night into like Thursday, Friday flipping, weekly flipping on the Panic sell post-weekend leak. Just kinda like some passive trend investing I guess you could say. And this one today, I literally was on the icon market for 15 minutes in total. And I had taken some time off looking at the market and I came back for a quick search just to see if there was anything there. My first search back at the 59th minute, this Pelé, Baby Pelé sitting there for 1.77 million coins. So basically, somebody missed the number. They were trying to list for 277. They listed at 177. So that number in front, they messed it up. And I made 880,000 coins, profit after tax in this card. That was a crazy icon snipe. That makes me wanna get back in the icons again. But again, these Bruno Fernandez about at 630. This Alaba was at 653. My Telemans were bought at 637. This was at 360, 380, 270, 275, and 280 I think were both of those. So kinda profit-ish, not really. I had some lazy sales today on Robertson at 160. He's still around 140K. I had some lazy sales on Digne as well at 155. Actually two of them on bid, which was interesting. Both had shadows about those for 140K apiece. And I still have some of my left backs from the prem. I know I've talked to you guys about possibly investing in some of these. They're still pretty low. So this could be something that you look for today as well because these cards are still pretty low in my opinion. With, you know, Lucas, Dignier I think is around 140K. Easy, wow man, he's even lower now, crazy. So people are actually starting to sell cards heading into this time period where they think team of the season is coming. I'm just gonna pick that up because that's crazy. He was 140 all day today. And this one has a shadow. So I'm gonna be storing some of these prem left backs on my transfer list. I don't think we're getting team this season today. I really don't. And I do think these cards will rebound. But if they don't rebound, we'll bite the bullet. It is what it is. But sometimes some stuff, wow. Fanonhold's getting cheap too, man. These left backs in the prem just keep getting cheaper. 145 for Fanonhold that is cheap. Let me check Robertson as well. He's probably like under 140 as well. These premily left backs are getting hit again because of the Christian Fuchs SBC. But they're premily left backs, right? And I always expect a rebound on premily cards because especially with some of these guys, there's not a ton of tradable prem left backs. There's a Robo for 145. All right, so 145 for Robo. He's probably at 140 earlier today. But again, let's talk team this season just for a little bit and what we could expect in the weeks ahead just to kind of give you guys a quick refresher at the end of this video about team of the season. This is the community team of the season from last year. And again, it was community voted for the second ever time. And there was only one squad, so there were no silver and bronze most consistent players. And how EA determined, if it was a most consistent player, what they did was the community team of the season was based on a short list of 104 players who performed consistently well throughout the season but did not receive a performance-based inform as of April 15th, which was a couple of weeks before team of the season actually came out. So with that being said, these were the guys that we got to vote on last year. Telez obviously was dope. Now again, this says performance-based inform. Telez had a Champions League road to the final card. That's not a performance-based inform for his individual performance. That is a promo card that is updated based on the Champions League, his team performance. So that didn't count. I know you're thinking like, well, wait. Yeah, Telez had that card last year. How to get a tot, that's how. So keep right out for some of this stuff. Again, maybe you'll see people start to compile some lists on Twitter or start thinking of some cards that could be in this list again. Rodgery, of course, 85 rated, wants to watch, didn't get any informs this year, would be a perfect candidate again for team of the season most consistent, I guess, if they choose to do it the same way this year as they did it last year. But that's how this was. You had to put your team together with exactly 23 players, four from the same league, at least two goalkeepers, six defenders, six midfielders, and at least three forwards. And then you had the squad, which was these guys. And then, of course, that's what actually some people think is gonna be the problem this weekend. Like we had the team of the year nominee cards, like I'll go, if you haven't seen these cards in a while, these cards are great for week in league flipping, by the way, but these team of the year nominee cards, this one right here, like the plus ones, they basically gave a plus one rating in every single stat, and the rating as well, around team of the year for our vote for team of the year. People are thinking they might do that for team of the season this year as well, to do like team of the season nominee cards for the next couple of weeks, and then we'll have team of the season. That's what some people are guessing. I don't know if it's true or not, if it is, that would be cool. Don't know what kind of boost they would give the cards, but it would be very, very interesting to see what's gonna happen with this Friday. This Friday is really just a, we don't know what is coming. People say there's a promo coming, so if you've got packs, maybe you hold on to them, and if you're worried about your team losing its value, I don't think I would panic sell. I really do not think I would panic sell, because as of right now, as long as the promo is not team of the season, which I can guarantee you that it is not, they're gonna hype up team of the season. That's one of their biggest promos on foot. They hyped up team of the year a lot, right? We're gonna have multiple loading screens for team of the season. We're gonna have like a week in advance to know when the promo's coming. So do not worry, it's not team of the season. The market should not crash that hard because of what team of the season brings. I just think it might be a different promo this weekend. We'll see, we really don't know. We're gonna have to wait until EA drops us some hints or some clues in a loading screen, or a tweet, or if we get some stuff in the pack code, or just wait till 6 p.m. UK and see what happens today on foot. But again, watch the foot birthday cards, watch the panic selling, because a lot of people are offloading those investments because they're scared of what's coming today. There could be a rebound Friday night into Saturday as people play the week in league, and they have to buy those cards for their team. So that's the video for today. Good luck if you're opening packs. And also don't forget this season objective. Don't forget this season objective for the 100k pack. I completed it actually, and now it's not showing over there. But I have 100k pack here in the store. Hook up with one of your buddies, get in my Discord, exclamation mark Discord down below. Actually you don't have to do that because this isn't Twitch chat, but there's a link to my Discord that's down below. Get in there, and there's a lot of people that are searching every single day to find friendlies to get this 100k pack. So you can stack that up, save it for team of the season, or open it for whatever promo comes today. If we do, get a promo. So if you enjoyed this video, smash the thumbs up on it, comment down below if you have any questions, and subscribe to the channel if you're new. It's been Nate, Foot Accountant, catch you guys later, peace.


Ever danced with the shadows cast by an energy vampire or felt the cosmic ripples of a psychic attack? It's a wild world out there my friends We're gonna show you how to spot these energy vampires and how to arm yourselves with the know-how to fend off these Supernatural shenanigans. Thank you very much.  Alright, let's do it Did you ever feel like this? For no known reason you feel like your energy's been drained or you might get some aches or ailments out of the blue that have no rhyme or reason for happening to you And for those of you who like to partake in a few drinks at the nightclub or local pub Do you know the place where the most negative entities hang out? It's right above the doorway where you enter and exit. If you drink enough cocktails You'll be an easy target for these entities at some point in our lives these situations have happened to many of us So what to do if you're being energetically or psychically attacked number one pretty simple Eliminate contact with those people.  Number two is to know your trigger points What is it that really gets your goat? Like for me, I have a lead foot.  It's processed cheese. It's GMO tomatoes So if you want to go on have a slice of pizza do it, you know, but everything in moderation This is really interesting the number one place where entities hang out are in the doorway of bars Right above the doorway. They'll scout you out as you're walking in They'll be paying attention how much you're drinking and if you've reached that point where you've drank way too much There's a huge portal that opens up and they can jump right in so be very careful. They call it spirits for a reason Right smudging sure you smudge if you feel like you're being energetically or psychically attacked smudge What I say is I demand that all negative entities leave my house immediately You're no longer welcome here only those of the highest vibration of truth light and love are welcome And I go through and I repeat that over and over and I'm smudging all over my house I keep repeating that this one's so obvious, but how often do we do this ask your guides and angels? Ask your posse go right down the line Creator source universe spirit guides guardian angels friends and family on both sides of the veil Black neighbors and friends higher self mother earth Go right up and down ask them for help, you know Your guides and angels are sitting there waiting 24 7365 Twiddling their thumbs saying okay, when are they gonna ask because you know we do have this law of non-interference in drastic cases I imagine they are able to interfere, but you basically have to ask them so they're sitting there He's right behind me hanging out there not in their heads right now Yep, so ask them if you're if you're getting psychically attacked ask them for help ask them for protection Be careful with your sexual energy to Who you're giving it away to and who you're receiving it from better be high vibrational. We'll put it that way I'm not gonna get too much into this But I think you already understand where I'm going with that because you're extremely vulnerable At that point so you know just be careful. All right. I'm just gonna leave it at that Use visualization techniques, and I explain this on I have an article and a video on N5D calm called what to do before you meditate and I highly recommend checking that out And I will put a link in the more info section So check that article out basically what you're doing is creating that that bubble of energy And I walk you through it on exactly what to do So another thing this is what I do anyway because I you know I'd look right here by the beach and I try to get out as often as I can But I do a walk of gratitude like I said, I'll call on my posse creator source universe Spirit guides guardian angels friends and family on both sides of the veil collect neighbors and friends hire self and Mother Earth and I'll post the link here Check it out. And you know, I call them my posse But feel free to change that and by whoever you want, you know, make make this your own posse You know these are the people that I really rely on because I I cut out all the middlemen I go, you know, basically directly the source when I have any issues The other thing another thing is a love bubble meditation Which one's gonna put a link for right here when I do a love bubble meditation. I'll ask my posse To magnify their loving healing energy from their heart center And spread it out as far as they can throughout the planet galaxy universe multiverse and omniverse And then we walk back to wherever I am on the beach and Everybody that comes into our field is affected by that And you can do that anywhere. You can do that at a mall. You're driving down a highway Wherever you are send up that love intention. So put out that love bubble energy The last thing is court-cutting There are a number of articles and I'll list them all right here too on n5d.com On what to do how to do it court-cutting is very very important if you are being Energetically or psychically attacked by some nefarious beings my guides and angels have been basically Telling me to pass on this message and I've said it so many times But it's so important these five things are so incredibly important number one love Especially like random acts of kindness. Those are huge We just love just love put that energy of love out there number two gratitude That's why I do the walk of gratitude, you know universe loves gratitude So when you put that appreciation out there, you know, the universe is just smiling High-fiving you basically you and your higher self Number three is forgive Dolores cannon talks about forgiveness it's the Easiest way to overcome karma forgive and When you're forgiving be sure to forgive yourself too and that way, you know, you're gonna help yourself You know, if we do have to do any kind of life review before we move to the next place of spiritual progression You'll already have that part covered. Okay? Number four is to maintain a high vibration when you maintain that high vibration Even if you're getting energetically and psychically attacked Especially the energetically part nothing can stay within high vibration. Keep that vibration high Do things that make you happy and the last thing is to ground You know those people that you're seeing in this genre that are losing it. They're not grounded So get out there and ground whether it's at a lake a mountain a stream the beach the desert in The snow doesn't matter.  I'm gonna leave it off at that I'm just so grateful that all of you were able to join me, you know, and to everyone that joined me on YouTube as well On the recorded version. Thank you so much. I guess, you know, that'll be it.


In my opinion, if you are just getting started training, you should not use more than 500 shares and the way to know when it's time to raise your max share size is when you get more consistent. So to be honest guys, if you just set your max loss auto liquidation at the broker level, you set yourself with a max size. That way you just can't keep adding and adding and adding and adding because what ends up happening is if you know you have a thousand shares max size, you're not going to go in a thousand shares in one bullet.  I can't add another 900. I have to be more meticulous. I got to be more careful because you ran out of bullets. If your gun has unlimited bullets, eventually you're just going to not even care. You're just going to spray it. You're going to spray it everywhere.


of Think Tech Hawaii. Civil engagement lives here. Welcome and aloha everybody. My name is Mark Shklav and I am the host of Think Tech Hawaii's Law Across the Sea program. Today our program is titled In the Vineyard and you'll be seeing very soon some wines but my guest is Seth Buckley. Seth is an attorney with the Hawaii law firm of Chiang Iwamasa. Seth has traveled and studied across the sea in the Asia Pacific region and now he lives and works in Hawaii but he also has worked for law firms in Australia and China. He has a lot of interests. Some of them involves photojournalism, boon and wine and he has a blog titled Musings by the Glass which you can find if you just go online and type in www.musingsbytheglass.com. Today Seth and I will walk through his vineyard and discuss his relationships with law, photography, wine and life and how they are all related to each other. So good morning Seth. Good to see you. Good morning Mark. Thank you for having me. My pleasure. First I want to learn a little bit about you. Yeah of course.  I'm a lawyer. Okay what what type of law do you do? What is your practice? And then we're going to go into wine and food and photography. So my firm Chiang Iwamasa specializes in real estate development, real estate finance, some bond financing and general corporate matters. So where do I fall into that?  Okay all right and you like that you like those areas? Yeah. Okay I notice also that you traveled a little bit. You're not from Hawaii. You're from Boston right? I'm from Boston originally. Yeah born and raised and I was there essentially in the northeast through college through undergraduate. Then you got to Hawaii and things changed right? I mean you kind of got into the Asia-Pacific. Yes. Tell me a little bit about that. Sure sure. So in Boston I didn't have a lot of exposure to the Asia-Pacific or its culture and history. So coming out to Hawaii originally was for my MBA and then subsequently my law degree and it was all a very new experience for me. And when I came here really. Being in Hawaii and being in this type of culture it's very very different from Boston, New England area. So it was all a new and exciting experience for me and I really wanted to dive in. Get out there and experience as much as I possibly could. So when I came out here I just fell in love with the history, with the culture, but probably most importantly the food. I just absolutely love the food out here and in this region and that was the starting point for me. And it was your first taste? It was. Yeah, my first taste of the culture and cuisine. And so you liked the Asia-Pacific area, you liked the food, the culture and what did that lead you to do? And you were going to school? Yes. So I started my MBA program and then moved into a JD program and I knew pretty quickly that Hawaii was great, the culture and history here is really great. But I wanted to move beyond that and explore even more. So I used my education as kind of a platform to be able to travel abroad. Student budgets are not always very large so I just dug around and did my own research and found some grants and fellowships that were able to pay in a large part for my travels to Melbourne, Australia, to Hong Kong and then over to Shanghai. Okay, now I just want to ask you a little bit about the grants. Yeah. Were you a law student at the time? At the time for the grants and fellowships I was a law student. At the UH Law School? At UH Richardson School of Law and the UH system has grants and fellowships for graduate programs and I went to them and I asked, hey you know you say graduate programs but you're not specific does it apply to law as well? Because the law school is kind of separate from a lot of the other programs and they said well we've never been asked that question before but we'll look into it and you can write your application and specify why law relates to the fellowship programs that they have and so I did and I was accepted. So that's a good hint for young law students. Yeah. If they're if they have an interest in a grant or traveling or going somewhere else while there's still a law student perhaps there's an opportunity there. Yeah absolutely. I think you know coming out of undergraduate I had student loans and I restricted myself in a lot of ways at first through my MBA program I said I just don't have the money to do this it's really interesting and fascinating to me but I just can't I just can't and in law school I dropped that mentality and said why not you know and and that's when I really started researching grants and fellowships and finding that there's a lot out there for students and and if you just dig around do your due diligence you can come up with some programs that will essentially pay for your travels and get you out and expose to those things. Wow so you went to Australia. Yes. Hong Kong and China. Yes. Shanghai. What were those experiences like? Yeah well Melbourne Australia I was doing studies of course I was studying at La Trobe University they have an LLM program that's focused on business international business and finance as it relates to law of course and the University of Hawaii system their law program doesn't have a lot of international business and international finance classes they have some but they don't specialize in that. So going to La Trobe University in Melbourne was my way of being able to expand on my own personal interests that I couldn't necessarily get lost in here. Which were which were international business comparative business law finance international finance they had a lot of those programs that that I was able to utilize. Okay and Hong Kong what what was your experience? So Hong Kong was similar through a fellowship program with the university I was able to go to Hong Kong went and study there for a semester and that university the Chinese University of Hong Kong also has a program that specializes in comparative corporate law international finance world trade law some some of the programs that in classes that I couldn't get if I stayed local. Okay and then ultimately Shanghai yeah how'd you get there? So Shanghai again that's just you know when you do your due diligence and you get out there and you talk to people you come up with these relationships that you never know when they're gonna pay out context relationships you never know who's gonna call you when and what they're gonna have for you and while I was in Hong Kong well before I was in Hong Kong I was of course trying to talk to anyone who had Asia Pacific experience who might know fellowships and grants I could apply for or just had information that I thought would help me to get to those places and one of those contacts called me up and said hey I know you're in Hong Kong I don't know what you're doing in the summertime but a friend of mine has a law firm in Shanghai and they're looking for a summer associate and if you're interested go ahead and apply. So I did on their recommendation I interviewed and got that position in Shanghai. And you were still were you still in law school at that time? Yes it was it was during the summer so I didn't miss class. Great experience absolutely and and you enjoyed your times there and yes oh yes absolutely now as a Boston boy had you ever been in I had not you hadn't been to Australia or or Hong Kong or China this is all first time all first time all first time all my friends thought I was crazy and and and you just found these opportunities yeah that's great that's great and and the whole experience working for law firms in those areas was was good positive and you made good contacts yeah how'd that work out yeah oh I still have contacts there we still chat back and forth we refer business back and forth Melbourne is a fairly similar practice to what you might find in the United States in Shanghai and China it's a little different you have to be a little bit more practical the clients we were dealing with foreign clients that had business interests in China so either they had a greenfield investment physically located in China or they're dealing with manufacturers explain what greenfield means so greenfield investment is essentially when someone a foreign investor makes investments and they actually break ground in in another location so they're physically present there whereas you know with the manufacturing you basically have a relationship with a Chinese manufacturer that manufactures and ships your products so there's there's a difference for the client in how they need to approach those two and they really need advice and they really need advice and and I was surprised I dealt primarily with European clients some US clients and a lot of clients from Australia and I was really surprised to sophisticate or the spectrum of sophistication of these clients some were highly sophisticated and they knew what they were doing in China they had a lot of experience they were there for a long time and we didn't have to hold their hand as much with some of these new clients that just saw China broadly as you know a way to invest and make money I guess that was almost their simple mind mindset for moving into China and they really needed not just legal advice which of course was important but business advice practical advice how to deal with the government how to deal with you know a system that isn't always there's some corruption involved let's let's put it that way it's different it's different and how do you as a foreign company interact with that with that system so they needed a bit of practical advice on how to deal with people and yeah what would be normal in China and everybody knows about they had no idea they had no idea and a lot of times they were taking advantage of especially with for example intellectual property the system is different in China is here and so a lot of U.S. clients would go over to China thinking the system's the same it's not and these Chinese companies were able to basically grab intellectual property from these companies before they registered in China so that's why they that's why they need count that's why they need lawyers that's why they need lawyers who know who knows something about what's going on absolutely and in the United States we're very careful to narrow our scope to tell clients we don't give business advice we don't give you know governmental advice you know where lawyers we stick to the law in China that doesn't really work very well because these clients really need a broader spectrum of counsel advice and that's often what they'll get now just in general as to that part of your your life and you still have friends there and how did you find the people in Australia in China on the one-to-one type basis well while it's interesting a couple of different ways first when I was still preparing to travel to these locations so before I was there I was just emailing as many people as I could find online friends of mine that had friends that had a cousin that had a friend any contact I could possibly try to manufacture while I was here I knew would help me when once I was on the ground because I literally knew zero people in all of those locations so I didn't want to have myself in a position where I would step off the plane and really not have any person contact so I did a lot of research ahead of time and some people thought you know who is this guy emailing me but for the most part a lot of the early relationships I had were through those those emails and those phone calls and then when I was there I was able to get on the ground and really start to do my own networking on the ground and I'm an introvert by nature so that was a little difficult for me but it was something just I had to get out of my box and I had to push myself to do that okay well let's get out of your box right now and talk about your your blog you have a really interesting photo journalism wine blog musings by the glass yeah what's that about and I think it kind of ties into what you were just talking about in a way but tell us what how did you get started in the blogging and choosing those topics sure how'd you get into it sure so the blog started originally as a passion of photography when I was traveling I love to have my camera with me wherever I went and in particular a photojournalistic style I was always trying to capture a story I love how photography can evoke an emotional response from an image or a dialogue just based off of an image I love how photography can provide a social commentary whether that commentary is positive or negative I think both are important but that was my framework when I was in Asia was taking pictures and trying to capture a narrative wherever I was and for the blog it started as that but when I came back I realized I'm not going to be in those situations as much here I'm going to be settling into a position I'm not going to be traveling as much and I want to be able to do something locally so I took the concept of the photography and being able to have a narrative and in the blog context you can still have your photography that's important but you can also write and expand on that narrative which I found fascinating I really wanted to try that and and what you've done is you've talked about food and wine and we're going to take a break and when we come back I'm going to ask you to talk a little bit more about food and wine and also to show us some of your photos absolutely all right thank you thanks Aloha I'm Kili Iakina and I'm here every other week on Mondays at 2 o'clock p.m. on Think Tech Hawaii's Hawaii together in Hawaii together we talk with some of the most fascinating people in the islands about working together working together for a better economy government and society so I invite you into our conversation every other Monday at 2 p.m. on Think Tech Hawaii Broadcast Network join us for Hawaii together I'm Kili Iakina Aloha. Hi I'm Pete McGinnis-Mark and every Monday at 1 o'clock I'm the host of Think Tech Hawaii's Research in Mana and at that program we bring to you a whole range of new scientific results from the university ranging from everything from exploring the solar system to looking at the earth from space going underwater talking about earthquakes and volcanoes and other things which have a direct relevance not only to Hawaii but also to our economy so please try and join me one o'clock on a Monday afternoon to Think Tech Hawaii's Research in Mana and see you then. Right we are back with Seth Buckley and we are walking through his vineyard and we are going to take a little look right now at some of his photos from his blog and hear a little bit about each one and he kind of Seth you kind of break it up into into kind of two areas I mean there there is kind of a food and wine area and then there's a social area right for your photos and then you then you have a separate section on wines which you brought a few for us to talk about but okay so let's first talk about first couple of photos and see if you can tell me a little bit about what they are what your feelings were where you came up so the first photo is looks like a wine the first photo is a sake that's being poured into a glass and it's a simple concept it's sake being poured but the point of this is to really capture a mood and with food photography and wine photography the whole point is to make the the viewer kind of call them to action you know you want them to to be salivating you want them to be thirsty you want them to be hungry you want them to want to go out and have that experience and that's what I'm trying to capture in this image and I liked how the light hits the bottle and the glass with the green in the background that's kind of bulk it out it kind of gives you a sense of of calm and serenity you want to be in this situation where you're just relaxed and enjoying the glass and there's no worries in the world kind of concept and with food photography I'm always looking to set them where was this taken this was taken at a friend's house he has a backyard that has a little koi pond with some greenery so I had to kind of set up the shot a little bit with the with the Japanese elements but the spot really sold itself which is why I chose it okay let's take a look at the next next slide yeah what's that so you know with food photography as I mentioned you you want the food to look delicious you want to have the person be thirsty and want to grab that beverage that you're pouring but there's also a story behind food and wine and a lot of my photography you know again being journalistic in nature I'm trying to capture the narrative of the food and wine itself so in this picture you have this master chef that was at an event I was shooting and you just see his careful preparation even in an event where he had to make hundreds of these I mean it was an event with several hundred people he was just trying to keep pace with the people pulling them off the table but he's being an artist here but he's being an artist you know and you can see his you can't see his eyes but you can see his face you can see that there's there's focus there you know and there's focus in his hands he's got tweezers that he's holding to kind of position the elements of the dish and I love the stories that you can find in food and if you looked at that table just at the event you might just see oh hey there's some food I'm going to eat it but you know look a little bit closer and you see you see the detail being put into it this goes beyond this goes to the preparation and this goes to the intent and this goes to the love of the person doing it yes actually yeah you can see you can feel that okay so this is this is a different type a different type of photo that you have here then then your your other photos tell us about those those are more of a social social aspect yeah so I think on a couple of levels I love photo journalism and street photography because you know there are stories on every corner everywhere you go there's a story in the alleyway in the street vendor that's selling his food in the the farmers markets where the farmers are selling vegetables there are stories all around us and most of the time we fail to even notice them and you know we're busy we're trying to get from one place to another and we don't really observe the world around us and are you going around with with your camera I mean is this it's in your hand so you're you're thinking yeah to look and see something and boom yeah so photography for me is a way to slow down and observe the world around me and engage the world around me and see something and see something different maybe that's yeah I kind of get that from what you're saying yeah and so a lot of my photography and the ones we'll see coming up I don't want to manipulate the environment I want to see what's in the environment capture it and tell that narrative okay let's take a look at your your next photo tell us a little bit what this what what is this yeah so this was in Taiwan I was traveling in Taiwan with my wife and we had the opportunity to go to Hualien which is on the eastern side it's a place that not many tours go and there are certain places that are restricted because there's a large indigenous population there and we had a friend who's a university professor in that area and she does a lot of research on the various indigenous groups in the area and so she invited us knowing that we were going to be in Taiwan to come over and do some field research with her which was really really exciting for me as a as a photo journalist and this was captured it's an older woman and she's teaching the the group that's there's a small group the the art of the tuku weave she's uh she's the tuku that's her her tribe and it's it's very elaborate and it was used at first for women to get husbands that's kind of how they started with their we of course they need it for clothing and other things but it was it was used primarily as a way for for women to show their worth to husbands that in cooking but she you know she's in her 90s and yet she's still so passionate about this weave she's still doing it every day it takes a tremendously long time to do to create garments and to create blankets but i just love the care that she has and the smile on her face she's really really enjoying it intensity yeah all right let's take a look at the next next photo so this I took in Cambodia my wife and I invest in an NGO or donate to an NGO that does some work in Cambodia and we're both very interested in social justice and equality and trying to use our financial resources in a way that that helps others and Cambodia is one of the projects that we are invested in and we don't want to just give money we want to actually go and be a part of it and observe it and do whatever we can while we're there to help the project so this was a project at a school in a very rural part of Cambodia and the program built this school along with some other community structures and provided teaching they provided clean water and they were teaching the kids the the primary thing that they wanted to teach kids was cleanliness washing your hands I mean things that we take kind of for granted these days and I just love the picture of this this girl she's you know she has this look going away from the camera she's intrigued by something she has this beautiful colorful dress that's kind of contrasted to the the colorful but but you know dirty circumstances behind her with the school but despite that circumstance she was just this vibrant beautiful little girl and you can almost feel her thinking yeah you can I mean you don't know what she's looking at or what she's thinking about but she's definitely very focused on it yeah okay I'm gonna skip to the wines and talk a little bit about them so that we can get them within our time frame here so you brought some wines I brought some wines please the wine blog yeah you're a wine blogger but and a photography blogger and and there's a lot that you have tell us a little bit about what you brought and what their significance are yeah you know it's it's always hard to recommend wines when people say well tell me a one I should buy because it matters a lot on that person's taste their palette matters what they're going to be doing with the wine how they're going to be enjoying it and what they're going to be eating with it there's a lot of factors but for this this show I thought you know hey we're talking about the Asia Pacific let's showcase some wines here because a lot of people when they think of wine they think of Europe they think of France Italy Spain Germany which have tremendous wine regions but a lot of people kind of look over the Asia Pacific region and I think that's a mistake in in Hawaii in the United States I think we're more prone to look to California which I definitely consider an Asia Pacific population so so we do have some familiarity with Napa but I think the region as a whole is very exciting so the first wine I brought closest to you is is actually a sake it's called Wandering Poet it's named after an old famous Chinese poet Li Po who he was famous for drinking sake and writing poems which I guess that's not a bad life if you get famous for that and he the legend has it that he died by drowning because he was in a small boat by himself drinking sake and howling at the moon so I guess the moral is no don't do that but but I just wanted to highlight sake because it's a beverage that a lot of people don't really understand the the labeling can be quite confusing to the western audience but it's a delightful delightful drink and there's a lot of sophistication and a lot of elegance in it and on my blog I have a couple of posts that help people to select select and discern the labels and kind of know what they're looking for but I think if you live in this region and you don't have sake you're not exposing yourself to that it's it's it's really too bad okay what are we what do we have here the second line is from Napa so it's a region that a lot of people know Napa Valley but I chose this to highlight one thing and in Napa Valley it's a valley but it's surrounded by two mountain ranges and as so when it started as a region most people were on the valley floor and since then people have discovered going up in elevation up these mountain ranges and when you go up in elevation you do a couple of things you get above the cloud cover so you have some beautiful morning sunshine you get pacific breezes that you don't get on the valley floor because they're blocked by them by the mountain ranges and you get a very complex terroir the the gravel rocks the soils are different from the valley floor so to me you get a really really beautifully structured opulent elegant wine when you go up into these mountains so what is this one called this particular is an O'Shaughnessy it's a Cabernet Sauvignon and it's from Howell Mountain which is my favorite mountain in the region okay what is this the third and the fourth both highlight value wines I want to give something for everyone so I'll jump back and say the the wandering poet the sake you can find for about thirty dollars at Fujioka's wine time the O'Shaughnessy Howell Mountain generally where this wine is from you're looking at the hundred dollar range so it's it's it's a little bit more expensive but you know if you have a really good event you want to impress um that's a good wine for it or if you really want to howl at the moon or if you really really want to howl at the moon yeah um the the last two are uh under 20 so these are more for the you know bargain wine for the weekday table kind of thing um and they come from australia and new zealand so the first is from new zealand it's a mountain beautiful Pinot Noir Pinot Noir is a grape that's well traveled um it's it's all over but it's a very very finicky grape it's hard to do well um and a lot of people try and a lot of people fail and it's also a wine that's not usually cheap in france burgundy is famous for Pinot Noir that's that's where it's from but those wines can go easily over a hundred dollars they can go up there some of the most expensive wines in the world so you know there's there's a price point there california sonoma valley or again they they do very well with Pinot Noir but they're again 50 to 70 dollars for a good bottle um these locations in new zealand this bottle is about 1999 at uh at tomoras so you can find a good value much cheaper and it's they're tremendous the new zealand is in australia are both really doing amazing things with wine right now they were known at first for being uh exporting kind of cheap wines and not very elegant sophisticated but they're changing um that perception really quickly so the the the Pinot Noir from uh new zealand is fantastic um Pinot Noir generally from zealand is really really good and then australia a lot of people think of australia was thrust it's kind of that that's where they got their start exporting and they exported they they were growing and creating wines specifically for export and specifically to the united states and that's where they got their reputation for kind of cheaper not very good wine but since then they've really put an emphasis on quality and um this wine from margaret river is one of my favorite regions it's on the far west side on by the ocean it's a very small region it kind of reminds me of like denver you know denver for craft beer and all of the exciting things they're doing for craft beer there that's what margaret river is for australian wine i think and this is a reisling which i chose also because uh the perception on reisling is often it's kind of a sweet wine um it's a sweet white wine and and you know some people don't really like it because they don't like sweet wines they want dry wine this is a very dry crisp wine lots of minerality great fruit and it just shows the spectrum that you can get with reason okay well those are that's good advice for us uh from a lawyer and uh it shows that there's more to law and life than just the practice uh and if they go on to your web i'm on to your blog they can find out about this if folks want to find out more about wine and see more of your photos yeah absolutely going on to your musings by the glass yeah yeah and i and i have um uh food pairing suggestions for local food because i think it's really important to pair wine with local food i think it's brilliant um so i have recommendations for that i have recommendations for wine um and then some of that photojournalism as well well well saith look thank you very much for showing us this aspect of of law across the sea i appreciate having you here thank you very much it's been a pleasure thanks


Hello everyone, welcome back to my youtube channel LaModeLeast, I'm excited to have you here today as we explore two methods for creating colors on button-up shirts.  So make sure to stick around until the end to gain a comprehensive understanding of the pattern making process. So let's dive in. The basic color may be worn open or closed. It has a 1 inch stand at the center back and the weave varies from 2.5 to 3 inches. So these are the required measurements for the color. Measure front and back necklines from your patterns and record.  Measure first from center back neck until shoulder mark or notch. Measure from shoulder mark or notch until the center front neck. And don't forget to record the measurements. Next get a piece of paper and fold it in half. And square a horizontal line at the bottom part of your paper. And label this line A. From line A, mark up 3 inches or 7.6 centimeters. And label this mark B. From line A, continue on marking up 3 inches or 7.6 centimeters. And square in a line and this is the line B. From folded line or center back, mark in the half of your neckline. In my case, it's 6.48 inches or 16.5 centimeters. And square in a line. And label this line C. From line A, mark up 1 to 8 inches or 3 centimeters for this stand. And label this mark D. From center back, mark in the half of your back neckline. Square a line and label this line E. This is the shoulder notch. From lines C and A, mark up 4 to 8 inches or 1.2 centimeters. From this mark, draw in a semicurve line until E. From the mark D, draw in a semicurve line till the mark at C. And this will be the roll line for the color. From C at line B, mark out 1 inch or 2.5 centimeters. And label this mark F. From F, mark up to 8.7 inch or 0.6 centimeter. From F, connect a diagonal line at the roll line. And from the mark at F, draw a semicurve line until E. Until center back as on fold and draw in the green line label. Trace the roll line and line E or the shoulder notch. And cut out the pattern from your paper. And this is the pattern for the basic shirt color. To adjust the color, mark out 2 sets of 1 inch marks from shoulder notch towards the center back. And square in the slash lines towards the roll line. And slash the lines. Next spread the slash lines by 1.8 of an inch or 0.3 centimeters. And redraw the color to smoothen the line. And redraw the roll line. Et voilà! So this is the basic shirt color. For the color with separate stand, we are going to draft first the color stand or band. And use the color stand as a base to draft the separate color. This kind of color is usually seen on formal and casual button up shirts and just like the previous color, it can also be worn open or closed. Same with the previous color, we need the back and front neckline measurements from our pattern blocks. To start off, get a piece of paper and fold it in half. Square in a line at the bottom part of your paper. From the folded line or center back, mark in the half of your back neckline measurement. And square a line for the shoulder notch. From the bottom line, mark up the height of the stand which is 1 to 8 inches or 3 centimeters. And square a line. From the shoulder line or notch, mark in the half of the front neckline. From the front neck mark, mark up 6 eighths of an inch or 1.8 centimeters. From this mark, draw a semi-curved line until the shoulder notch. Measure this line, check if the measurement is the same with your half neckline measurement. And mark in the correct measurement if it's incorrect. From this mark, draw a perpendicular line. And this is the new center front. And continue marking up the height of the stand. And draw a curved line. Next, extend a line at the center front. And mark out 6 eighths of an inch or 1.8 centimeters for a button extension. From the button extension, draw a curved line upwards. And now we have a color stand. From center front line, mark in 2 eighths of an inch or 0.6 centimeter. This mark is needed so that the color won't overlap. And we are also going to use this mark to draft the color. Next, cut out the stand from the paper. And get the previous paper to draft the separate color. From the color stand outline, mark up 1 to 8 inches or 3 centimeters. Place the color stand at the mark upside down. And trace from center back until the mark near center front line. And do not forget to mark the shoulder notch. From the mark at center front line, draw a 120 degree angle line like this one. And at the center back, mark up 2 inches or 5 centimeters for the color height. And square in a continuous line. And mark up 4 eighths of an inch or 1.2 centimeters. And from this mark, draw a semi-curve line until center back. Cut out a separate color pattern from the paper. And now we have a separate color. And this is the shirt color with the color stand or band. So to adjust the color, mark out 1 inch each side from the shoulder notch. And square in the slash lines. Crush the lines and spread each line by 1 eighths of an inch or 0.3 centimeters. And re-draw the color to smooth in the lines. Et voila! So this is the basic shirt color with the stand or band.

everybody, sort of, I think like four hours already. So it's not really the morning, but it's still like only nine o'clock, so it's still the morning. I don't know where I was going with that one. I have pretty much started doing all my animals and since I did my first vlog the other day, most people wanted to see more of my animals. So I'll tell you guys how my morning routine, I already put Gertie the shape out and geese out as well, so I could do my horses, my chickens, my other geese and my goats. And I think that's everything. The chicken's already outside eating and this guy's looking at me funny, but it's the rooster in this little group here that I need to really be careful for. You'll see, he'll come after me. He always comes after me. Yeah, he's gonna come straight over here. Jenny is kicking up some dust. But the moment I turn my back, oh, he's gonna strike. I'm telling you that now. And like he's not even intimidating. Look at him, he's so small. What are you doing, mate? What are you doing? So I have two horses technically. This one here is mine. His name is George and he eats a lot and is a general pain in my butt, but I love him loads and he's gorgeous and nice. And then this one over here, he is Bailey. He isn't my horse, but I look after him for a friend and he's like the boss. And he also has a really cool fly bow. Yeah, look at that, stunning. I don't know if you guys can see like the size comparison. I don't even, I can't see anything on this camera because it's so bright. But this is George, he is 16, two hands high. Both of my horses are injured at the moment though, so I'm just gonna quickly bandage up George's legs and double check on Bailey, which is already bandaged and stop making noise, mister. I'm looking at you. His leg is now wrapped in beautiful purple and he's hopefully not feeling too sorry for himself, are you buddy? If you guys thought that my horse stables were a mess on my room in my last vlog, you should see this chicken pen. Basically it's pretty hard to keep anything clean when you have so many pets in here, but we've got like my ducks and my chickens and rubbish absolutely everywhere. So inside this really dark looking shed we have so many ducks and gates that are on eggs. Like that includes these wild ducks as well. Because there's only one egg at the moment, I'm just gonna leave it and I'll collect them again later on today. But these guys are now fed. Now I'm gonna have to move on to the main attraction which is my goat. It's really nice at the moment because spring is here in Australia. So all of these fruit trees that we've had here for years are like starting to, you know, get fruit and stuff like that. I can't think of what the actual word is, but my favorite one here is the mulberry tree because like it goes crazy every year. And like I don't know if you guys can see that but there's already so many mulberries and I'm so excited to eat them all. So although I said it's my day off, most of my day today is going to be spent building pens. You guys can see ahead there's like white boards. That's what I was doing yesterday and that's what I'm gonna have to finish doing today because my goats are escape artists. They get out of here. No matter what. This one here who I call my little unicorn is Kel and this one here is Lila. So yes, they're named after the book characters from A Darker Shade of Magic and I think that represents them both pretty damn well. Yum, yum, yum, yum, yum, yum, yum, yum, yum, yum, yum. Kel here actually has like a pretty cool backstory. I had him for like two days and then he got really, really, really sick. Like he was in the verge of dying and I mean like he had everything wrong with him from pneumonia to kidney failure and everything in between that. So I took him to the vets and then four and a half grand later. He's all better and super happy living here and getting very, very fat. He looks so frickin' done. Look at that blinking. Oh, he's like, just let me sleep.  So my mom's going to her first. What is it? First day at Fitness Renegades. At Fitness Renegade and she went and bought some new shoes just so she can be part of the cool club. Hey, you're looking pretty cool and she's very nervous, but excited, right? Yes. Yes, cool. Get out of here. Five kilos. Five kilos. Yeah, off that butt. She's gonna go early because she doesn't want to be late but she doesn't want to be too early. I just want to fit in and part of the inbound. You are. You're in. I'm in a good group. Bye.  And you guys remember these guys, of course, hey?  Don't eat that. That's pizza. That's pizza. That's ticklish. Gertie's here as well. She's still very timid, but still very happy out on the grass with her best friends. But the cuts on her nose are starting to go too, so that's really good. She's definitely doing much better. They're still trying to eat the pizza. It's not real. You can eat it. I forgot that I had an egg in my pocket. Yep, that is definitely what you want on a Saturday. Right. Hello. Hello. Bonnie was like really the best way to go. And this here is Melly.  This is just one of the many stacks of books that I have around the house that need to be put away. But it seems like the hardest thing to do when my library is such a mess right now. I wasn't kidding when I said that my goats are escape artists. Hello ma'am, how are you? Just sitting at a table, are you? And oh, I see, we have another boy sitting at the table.  We ate off that table. And so do you guys, apparently. Excuse me, you're not allowed inside of the actual house. Come on, where's Kel?  Oh God, no, Kel, Kel, come here. This is why we have colors on them. Come on, this way. Okay, are you guys ready for this? These guys follow me mostly because I bottle fed them from when they were young so they're pretty clingy but it's really funny to watch them right after me. That's really gonna be the most dodgy filming ever. Just temporarily put the goats away because I know that they're going to break through and really patch work job that I just did.  Yes, let's hopefully get everything done and then I can get home and actually fix the goats pen and hopefully do some riding as well.  That's good job, guys, good job. And right here is the little lifesaver. Anything goes wrong and he's gonna be straight in there. Okay, so this is my first time actually using the camera in the car without somebody else. So let's hope that the angle and everything is okay. Like I said earlier, I'm on my way to my friend's house to take photos of her bowl and then I've gotta come back here and do a bunch of stuff. So who knows how it's actually gonna work out because there's actually so much that I need to do today and so little time and so little help is. Plus, I'm also doing my NaNoWriMo novel as well and that at the moment is like super hectic. First thing you can watch my last vlog, I decided to restart my story on the eighth day into NaNoWriMo. I hadn't done that many words anyway, so it wasn't a huge loss and I'm super behind. So at the moment I think we're on day 11 or 12. I don't even know what day the week it is and you're supposed to have written about 18, over 18,000 words and I'm currently sitting at about 12,000 words and I also wrote 5,000 words yesterday, which is really good. I'm super happy with that. I kind of sat down after I'd done all my work. I went to my little writing room and I did like four hours work. I believe in that time and I wrote 5,000 words. I was just totally channeling my story and I was so happy with it. So yeah, let's hope that it stays that way because I still need to catch up. So I'm hoping I'll be able to punch out another 5,000 words tonight. Who actually knows? Fingers crossed I can do it. I really need to get back on track and although I know where my story is heading, I've also changed pretty much absolutely everything from on the first draft that I did my story in. But I think exciting side, one of my, on the exciting side, I've actually had one of my friends read it so far. She's read the first chapter, I'm pretty sure. And I'm like so nervous because I haven't actually had someone outside of my family. Oh wow, those are really pretty flowers. Sorry. I haven't had anyone actually read my story yet. So yeah, besides family, like I force my family to read it all the time. And so far I hope she's gonna enjoy it. I'm not too sure, so fingers crossed. I'm gonna do it for the metal. And then we'll get what we can get off to the gold pen and then do the sheet pen work. Yes ma'am. All right, now let's see. So guys, this is my finished look. I call it the makeup tutorial of being busy all day and doing animal things. And this is perfected. I do have this look quite often. Probably wondering why the camera quality has gone down and that is because I forgot my camera lens today when I went to my friend's house to take photos of her horse. So yay for me now having to go a few days without my camera lens. But hey, we're all here with Vine. And I'm going to go and have a shower now and hopefully do some writing and sleep forever. Before I do have a shower though, I'll quickly show you guys the goat pen and that is what took up the majority of my day.  Not really, but yeah, all these panels have been put on and I've cleaned it all and inside looks so much nicer. But these guys won't be escaping anymore, will ya? Hey, no, you guys won't be going anywhere. Nowhere. Look at that skewer of itching her back. Did you guys see that? That is amazing. And I am back and clean and showing you guys what I call my everyday look. It is basically no makeup except for my eyebrows because I've got scars on my eyebrows and they look horrible if I don't. So this is, yes, my face. Queen of makeup. And my dog is scratching at the door. So I believe you have all met little Pippa. She is my little angel, my heart, my love, my everything. Anyway, so I am going to do some writing because I am so far behind and I have to get to it. But I am currently sitting on 12,259 words, which I have done over the space of like five days, I think. So I'm pretty okay with that. I just hope that I can still finish on time for a nano-rimo. Single sentence I showed you before because everything that I write is super trash and sucky and horrible. And I give up for tonight because I will be back tomorrow writing, hopefully. Just gotta get this brain working. Please work. I'm probably just gonna go to bed now and watch Netflix. I'm gonna go and hopefully you guys have a lovely bookish day and great things happen to you and you guys enjoyed this and my pets and hopefully you guys will see them again soon. But for now, take a look at my super messy bookshelf that is filled with more TBR books and special books and things that I need to clean up, including this beautiful thing here. Bye. Bye. Hey guys, it's Helene. Today I'm meeting you with a teacup on book thing and let's get straight into it.


Live from the Wynn Resort in Las Vegas, it's theCUBE, covering .next conference 2016. Brought to you by Nutanix. Now here are your hosts, Dave Vellante and Stu Miniman. Welcome back to Las Vegas everybody. This is the intro to day two. Stu and I are going to sort of set the tone, give you a sense of what happened to the keynotes if you weren't able to see them. We were live streaming the keynotes, but Stu we saw in day two. It wasn't about the product. It was about thought leadership themes. It was about partnerships. We saw Microsoft up on stage. Great quote, Cloud is not a place, it's a model. We couldn't agree more. We talk a lot at Wikibon and SiliconANGLE Media about Cloud as an operating model, not a place to put apps and data. And it's really about the fundamental changes in your operations that Cloud is so interesting, at least to us. We saw Dell up on stage with Alan Atkinson. Alan Atkinson, former EMC, former bunch of different storage companies. He catalyzed the deal with Nutanix. We were talking to Alan a while ago and he said, yeah, I saw this company and I wanted to work with them. I wanted to partner with them.  I didn't get a chance to you, but that deal seems to be working. People, I don't want to come back to that. And then we heard Mark Leslie talk about the ARC. Mark was the founder of Veritas. He's a professor at Stanford now. He laid it out. I mean, he nailed Oracle. He nailed Sun. He showed what's going on with Amazon. I mean, he really laid out how, for example, Larry Ellison made some bet your company moves that got them over into the next S-curve, like buying Sun, like the move to go ERP, like the move to consolidate the software industry.  But I want to start with Dell. So there's a lot of discussion about the Dell relationship given with Nutanix, given that EMC is going to get acquired by Dell. Many are predicting that's going to go away. We have been saying, don't be so fast to make that prediction. What are your thoughts? Yeah, I mean, at its core, it's very clear when you listen to Michael Dell as to what is important to him and the company, core of its business, you always say, what does Cisco care about? Cisco cares about selling those core networking products and the more things that generate IP traffic, the better it is for Cisco. Well, that's core of its business. What does Dell care about? Dell cares about servers. Yes, of course, they want to include more storage, more networking, more services and software that goes with that. But at the core of it, they want to be the leader in this next wave that comes through. I wrote an article in the fall last year and said Cisco killed it when it came to converge infrastructure. You look at all the solutions out there, they're the one that everything's based on. Hyperconverged, Dell is trying to be the leader in that space. If you look at the solutions that are out there, Nutanix use Supermicro, so Dell makes an OEM relationship to get them in the fold. SimpliVity uses Dell as their base hardware. Many of the other solutions there either leverage or partner with Dell. So Alan Atkinson got on stage and he said, the question everyone wants to know is, once EMC deals done, does that mean that's the end of the Nutanix? And he said, no, we've signed an extension to the OEM relationship. We're going to keep it going. So it's going to be real interesting to see the EMC VCE stuff once that starts shipping Dell and the Dell Nutanix piece, how that plays out in the channel and in customers and how those decisions get made. You know, I think that in looking at the history of these OEM deals, Al Shugard said to me one time that, Dave, if you got to split money with somebody, that means two guys got to make money and it's always harder. So in my experience and observations, these OEM deals have been really come down as sort of two categories. One is the company, the buyer, the OEM receiver wants to fill a hole in its product line or the other is in the case, for instance, of IBM in its storage business under Bill Zeitler, it decided that storage wasn't strategic and so it OEM'd a lot of stuff to guys like LSI and NetApp, so and they de-emphasized their own R&D, same thing with Sun, same thing, you know, early days anyway with Sun. And so what invariably happens is either those deals unravel because somebody can provide a better deal or the company decides to vertically integrate. For instance, in the case of IBM, they acquired XIV and they started to do more and more of their own. But there are many cases where it's been long-term. Look at HP and Etachi, previous to that EMC. The EMC deal unraveled because it was a negotiation issue. We have a great conversation in negotiation later. But so here's, I guess, what's my point? My point is that I think this deal is going to be solidified for quite a number of years. I think long-term, you know, Dell will have to make the decision as to whether it wants to vertically integrate and I think EMC's got technologies that will probably eventually get there, even though they may not be as advanced, but they'll make more money on that. And that's going to be a business decision, but I don't think that'll come for four, five, six years down the road. Yeah, and just one thing, people tend to overestimate how much of Nutanix's business today is with Dell and not only does the Nutanix have Dell, they also have Lenovo's up on stage. Radhika was talking about the partnership, which is brand new. We actually have some Wikibon research looking at that environment up on wikibon.com right now, but combined, Dell and Lenovo, that's not even a third of their business today and they're not looking for it to be the majority of their business. Nutanix has many paths to market and the OEMs are a piece of that overall puzzle so it shouldn't be overstated how much Nutanix is relying on that. Well, and Alan Atkinson threw the number, he says a 10-figure pipeline. So we're talking 100 plus million in pipeline. That's substantial. That's going to take a while to play out. I think if Dell and EMC can figure out where to put that product in its portfolio, how to appropriately compensate people, how to deal with all the inevitable channel conflicts, and EMC in particular is very experienced at doing that. And I think that, so I would expect really good things and that's going to be great news for Nutanix in a period of time but I think the company has to be careful. It doesn't want that OEM revenue popping up to 20, 30, 40% of its revenue. That would be a warning sign in my view and I think they're managing that pretty carefully. I think they've done some interesting things with deal registration that are protecting the channel so that's good. Let's talk a little bit about stack ownership. What is going on here? Is Nutanix trying to be the next VMware? Yeah, they definitely, last year they moved up the stack, they announced their own hypervisor. Nutanix isn't trying to be the leader in hypervisors, they're more trying to offer a platform and give customers choice. You said we saw Microsoft up on stage, we're going to have them on theCUBE today. The Microsoft stack, what they call Microsoft CPS, that includes Hyper-V, so a lot of Nutanix customers are still doing mostly VMware. We're getting, when it comes to the Acropolis hypervisor, it's 15, 20% of customers at least have some of that in their environment. So we're going to see choice in there and most customers are going to have more than one hypervisor. When I talk to a number of Nutanix customers that are trying out and starting to use Acropolis and it's not a sweep the floor, it's a tactical thing that they'll do to save cost and simplify their environment. And at the end of the day, there's a great line from Sunil yesterday on theCUBE, is what is the stickiness of Nutanix and it needs to be really that simplicity and making it invisible. And if that can include a larger piece of the stack where I add in the hypervisor and maybe I add in more of the management stack, great discussion at a Docker column this week as to Docker's integrating orchestration into what the base Docker platform is in the Docker 1.1.2. So used to say, how many different pieces do I need to cobble together? We love building these stack diagrams, Brian Grace Lee is great at doing those and the more I can boil that down to a single, what David Floyer calls a single managed entity, the easier it is and the higher up the stack I go, we actually see exponential value to the customer because it just takes just so many things off of their plate to help us focus on the business, growing the business and transforming the business rather than just running the business. Well, and that's where Oracle's making its hay and so-called engineered system. So, okay, real quick Stu, your take on the announcements yesterday and today. Yeah, so I mean, more than we have time to go through right now, Dave, but absolutely, they're baking out that stack, they're maturing it, they're giving that vision as to how they add in and not just inspired by cloud but really, how does that hybrid cloud or what the Nutanix is calling the enterprise cloud message fits? All of the companies that have on-premises as their primary deployment model are struggling a little bit with how do I interact with the AWS, Googles and Microsoft of the world interested to dig in more on the Microsoft piece here. But good progress, good mix of the stuff that's available today and enough vision for what's coming down the future. So, good crowd and we've got a full day of coverage here to talk to a bunch more practitioners. All right, Stu, great analysis as usual, thank you. Let's talk about the future in a minute. We've got Mark Templeton coming on. How do companies stay relevant? There's a lot of talk about consumerization of IT. What about the humanization of IT? We're going to have that conversation with Mark, former CEO of Citrix. Keep right there, everybody, this is theCUBE. We're right back from Las Vegas.


Like what the I don't get enough of this. I don't get enough of this in the God chat I don't get enough of this and chat like what are we doing right now? Like what are we doing? Boys all they ask me all day when I stream YouTube tiktok social media everywhere. What quarterback do we use what quarterback? Why do you like this quarterback? Why do you like that quarterback? Why do you like this quarterback? All day. That's what I get all day and I'll tell you guys It really doesn't matter that much at this point in the game every quarterbacks about 85 overall They're gonna be bad. They're gonna get pressure on accurate. They're gonna misthrow some passes They're going to mess up, but you have to see what the state of the game is what it's like I think the mobility of the quarterback is all the way back a fast quarterback is meta right now It's really hard to contain picket or Bryce young both of them are super fast They make plays outside the pocket they get away from pressure and it's so underrated Being able to run backwards and throw the ball away if you're bagged. It's such an underrated thing for a quarterback So for me, I'm going to pick the fastest quarterback I can easy right so pick it or Lamar or Bryce young is pretty much my three now Let me know in the YouTube comments. Let me know on the twitch What quarterback do you use these guys have been telling me all night? What quarterback to use I heard? Joe burrow is cracked. I heard from some of the nerds burrow burrow has the best release He's just so smooth with his release. I love the way he releases. He releases so smooth. Oh my gosh I love burrow. Listen.  Because sometimes you're bagged and sometimes you got to make some shake. That's what Madden's about. All right That's why it's either Lamar. It's either pick it or it's Bryce young and at the end of the day It's the end of the day and Bryce young is free What other reason do you need then to realize that Bryce young is the number one quarterback? You should have on your team right now. Just saying now. Let's take a look I play every single night you can watch me live on twitch that link is below This was a super role game against one of the best players in the world Check it out. Both of my ebooks are live Madden turf comm that link is below as well If you guys need help you can get a VIP membership anything like that boom you get everything you get guides You get weekly lab sessions. You get meta breakdowns VIP membership is the move But the biggest move is sitting that like button and the subscribe button and checking out this video Fancy bro. How does a man take my coins right now, bro? You can't play somebody in a Super Bowl, bro The last dude with sweaty as he just got pop Yeah, taking a man's trophy packs is foul, bro for real. Oh my god, bro.  Fumble man. I'm in this motion is killing me dude. Good pressure boys. That's good pressure I need a punter. I need a punter. I need a punter. I put a remind me to get a punter Remind me to get a punter. Remind me to get a punter. Good pun. Good pun. Good pun Good pun. I might have went for that fourth or two if I had timeouts. I probably wasn't going to get points If you watch that third down, I let the clock run a little bit in case I had to point But going into that drive. I just didn't want to give him the ball back before the end of the half Honestly, I got a corner out on every player, bro. God come on man. Good play Safety got to get there, bro. Come on man Good girl. Good girl.   Come on, man Don't there's just no in way. We just got oh my god We just shitted that fast the second time on fourth down. We just shitted that fast man three-man rush Anybody have defense have defense like that.   I really talk like 75.  Dude, I've never got more delay games than this year for real Let's go Henry That's what we got you for kid. No for real I like I've got more delay games in this first week than I have my whole life. Honestly. Oh Man, all right, we got play a little bit more defense. I don't have a good plan for like when they motion out the running back I'm kind of freestyling so bad when they do that like dog. There's just no way we're getting wop Come on Mine thank you. Come on stingly. Let's go. Come on. I wish I was good enough to throw that Adi. Come on. Jamar come on. Jamar Ggs Ggs But that run wasn't that bad. I can't lie. I didn't expect to get four on that run I mean, I hate to do this, but I need these trophy packs, bro. I hate to be a crab week one but I need these trophy packs I Need these trophy packs up off you bro. I need these trophy packs. I'm sorry I hate to be this guy week one, but like I need these trophy packs I mean, I didn't play that well on defense. We made enough stops I mean, he really fumbled with the quarterback twice in the red zone Well, why he fumbled once in the red zone with the quarterback and then once he tried it He tried to juke me. I'd need a punter for I do need a punter.  I can't lie. I need my trophy packs, but I need them johns Almost missed it. Oh, he's up 50 50 red zone. We got a little sticky I don't know why he tried that out route like he just tried it.  We just got a place safe here, dude. I have so much discipline, dude You know much discipline I have you know, I'm much disciplined. I have as a user.   Oh, I'm sleep. I know about Justin Herbert and Madden to trust me. He carried nobody spent after that. Oh Check can we be real after nobody spent they patched Justin Herbert Can we just agree Justin Herbert was goaded one year then they saw me dominate with Justin Herbert and they patched them All right, we're not here yet boys For the betters coin card, you know the nerve of these suckers to make gold coins cars, huh?


The main findings of the SOFIS report this year are not as good as we will have like and the reason is simple. The SOFIS reporting up to 828 million people chronically undernourished, what we call our POU indicator, which means that we have increased in 150 million more people chronically undernourished with respect to the previous year. When we look at the at the trend and we look at 2030, which is the target of the SDGs, our projections are showing that we will have 670 million people chronically undernourished. It's exactly the same number that we have in 2015 when the SDGs were signed. The key drivers behind food insecurity are conflict, climate change and slowdowns and downturns. COVID-19 especially affected the slowdowns and downturns because economies, especially of developing countries, were completely chocked negatively because of the COVID-19. In this context is when the war in Ukraine happens and what this means is that the situation is exacerbated even more. Why? Because Ukraine and Russian Federation represent around 30% of the exports of Syrians. And what we understand is that there won't be only one policy. There has to be a portfolio of policies, of actions that need to be taken to create a transformation of the agri-food systems that we need. We can repurpose subsidies, of course, to improve efficiencies, to make the incentives compatible to a better nature and also to reduce emissions for the climate and to reduce distortions. So if not in 2030, at least in five years from there, or 10, we can achieve the goal of zero hand.


Dear students, in today's experiment, I will demonstrate you how we can measure the dissolved oxygen concentration by using dissolved oxygen meter. We will also check the effect of temperature on dissolved oxygen consumption. The dissolved oxygen concentration is the most important environmental factor in fish culture. In the broadest sense, the dissolved oxygen concentration is no more important than any other environmental factor because any factor which is outside the range tolerated by fish in intensive fish culture may cause stroke or even death. So what makes the dissolved oxygen concentration so important in fish culture is the speed with which it changes. It can change from optimum to lethal in the matter of hours or even minutes. There are different methods to measure dissolved oxygen concentration. The selection of methods based on the number of ponds or tanks to be used, second the accuracy which we required and third the cost of the measuring technique. Now let's start the procedure. Dear students, to perform this experiment, we need dissolved oxygen meter. Dissolved oxygen meter has two components, a sensor which is also called as probe and a meter. The sensor react with oxygen and produce an electrical signal in proportion to oxygen concentration. This electrical signal is then amplified and translated into concentration unit which is displayed by meter. Dissolved oxygen meter do not measure oxygen directly but it may at the voltage produced by chemical reaction of oxygen with the different components of sensor. The second material which we require is beaker which contain point water. Accurate measurement of deoconcentration with polygraphic sensor requires moving the sensor in the water. Oxygen is consumed across the membrane so failure to move the sensor will create an oxygen depleted microphone around the sensor tip and show a measurement that is too low. Move the sensor up and down or side to side about one foot per second to prevent this problem. Dear students, now we will check the effect of temperature on the dissolved oxygen consumption. For this we need dissolved oxygen meter and two beakers containing point water. The first beaker contains cold water and the second one contains warm water. Place fishes in both beaker. Now let the fishes settle, take a stopwatch and take reading at different time intervals. Now I will take the reading of dissolved oxygen consumption in the first beaker containing cold water for 10 seconds. Dear students, now you can check the reading of dissolved oxygen consumption in cold water. Now I will take the reading of dissolved oxygen consumption in second beaker containing warm water for 10 seconds. Dear students, now you can check the difference of dissolved oxygen consumption in both beakers containing cold and hot water and you can clearly observe that the dissolved oxygen consumption in the beaker containing warm water decreases. Dear students, now you check the difference of dissolved oxygen consumption in both beakers containing cold and hot water. Now we will take reading of dissolved oxygen consumption after 5 minutes. Now dear students, we will take the readings again after 5 minutes. So first of all I will take reading in cold water, after this I will take reading in warm water. Dear students, now you have observed the difference of dissolved oxygen consumption in both beakers containing cold and hot water. You clearly observed that dissolved oxygen consumption in beaker containing warm water is gradually decreasing. The reason behind is that when temperature increases, gas and water molecule gain more energy which in turn breaks the weak interaction of oxygen and water molecule which causing the oxygen to escape. Dear students, this experiment helps us to access the water quality. It also signifies the importance of dissolved oxygen concentration for the survival of fish and aquatic organisms.
