Hello friends, I am Satish Parjani working as an assistant professor in Vulture Institute of Technology in Mechanical Engineering Department. Today, we are at the end of this session, we are able to study the relationship between work study techniques. Now, the contents of this session are work study, techniques of work study, method study, work measurement and the relationship between work study techniques. Coming to work study, work study may be defined as analysis of the job for the purpose of finding the preferred method of doing it, determining the standard time to perform it by the preferred or given method. Work study therefore comprises of two areas. The first one is method study, which is also called as motion study, where the processes are being set. And second is the time study, which is also called as a work measurement, where we have to note the time, how much time that process or input process is required. Both can be carried out simultaneously or the one also can be carried out depending upon whether the process has been stable or process has been accepted. So now, we will note that what the work study means. Work study is a generic term for those techniques, method study and work measurement both included, which are used in the examination of human work in all its context and which leads to systematic investigation of all factors affecting efficiency and economic of the situation under review in order to effect improvement. Now what are the techniques of work study? First technique is method study, as I told you in previous slide also, it is related to process. It is a technique of systematic recording and critical examination. I am repeating, it is a technique of systematic recording and critical examination of existing and proposed method of doing work for developing and applying easier and more effective methods at producing costs. And the second one is work measurement. It is application of techniques designed to establish the time for the qualified worker to carry out specified job at defined level of performance. Now we will come to method study. Method study is mainly concerned with reduction of added work content in the job. It is mostly used to improve the method of doing work or develop an effective method for new jobs. For existing jobs, method study aims to find the better method which is economical and safe, require less human efforts or making human life more easier and third one needs shorter, make ready or put away time. Now the second part of the is work measurement. It is mostly concerned with investigation and reduction of any ineffective time associated with the existing job. Subsequently, establishment of the time standard for the operation which has been improved by the method study. There is no hard and fast rule whether method study or work measurement is to be applied. We can say that if the process has been stable in any organization, we can directly apply the work measurement techniques and reduce their time. Or if we have to improve the process, first we will improve the process and then we apply the work measurement techniques which is to be applied and finally we have to improve the productivity or which leads to higher productivity. It depends upon whether operation for the job has been perfected or not. If the job operation is perfected, yes, work measurement can be easily or immediate can be applied. If it is not, first the process has been stabilized and then that work measurement techniques or time reduction activity has to be done. Now we see the relationship is a simple diagram which shows the higher productivity related to relationship between the work study techniques. As a work study as I told you in the previous slide also, work study consists of two major things. First is method study and then is work measurement. Now we see the graph also in the diagram also that method study can be carried out or directly work measurement can be carried out or after carrying out the method study we can carry out the work measurement which leads to higher productivity. Now the method study is to simplify the job and develop the more economical methods of doing the job. So what does that mean? First we have to select the job then record the techniques. This recording or selection of the jobs can be done, selection can be done on the basis of three economical factors, technical factor or human factors. Economical factors whether the job is more costlier. So we have to take into consideration that job. Second it is human efforts if it is taking more so we have to target that job and set that process for doing that job. And third one technical if it is leading to every time some technical issues then the method study again can be carried out or the process has to be set again and again. Then the second part in method study comes the recording techniques. In recording techniques what is major charts and symbols are being used? The charts and symbols are various different charts are being used different symbols are being different activities can be done. So this is one of the again the framework where visualization can be done by the management and the team can come together and decide how that be is being performed. So different types of chart, travel chart, string diagrams and flow charts, man machine can chart, simultaneously can be seen together and finally from that chart examination can be done. The third step in the method study is called critical examination. In critical examination we have to apply the questions why that place? For what the reason is being carried out? What is the reason? What are the methods? Why only that method? So different questions are being asked that there are some primary questions in the future in the future further slides we will understand what is the main reason or main motto in asking the critical examination. So in short we have to understand first whether first in critical examination what are the primary questions, what are the secondary questions is being asked and finally that into that. Then finally the analysis comes in the analysis part what we have to there is a some statistical analysis can be done the job in the statistical analysis this this can be the help with the help of different techniques. Many times even the study engineer uses the different techniques like PDPC or 6-signal also can be used which are useful to carry out further activity of the chart. Now coming to the work measurement what does this mean it is to determine how long it should take to carry out the activity. Suppose in this activity initial job which current process in the manufacturing organization suppose it takes 10 minutes now our target is to reduce by 20 percent. So by seeing now 8 minutes is the target whether that is possible or not first thing we have to ask it or whether the process has to be changed if the process has to be changed then method study has been carried out then work measurement. Now if the process is stable now we are confirmed that whether now the process has been stable so what has to be done. So the first part is to determine what are the times what are the allowances given. Now we have to see that a certain any any job or work carries out some observed time first it is observed time then second it is multiplied by the factor called the rating factor and the rating factor it means whether that part or the the job or is being carried out some qualified worker at some higher level or by the lower level if it is carried out by higher level then it has to be normalized. Second the allowances are to be added there are some allowances like contingency allowance interference allowance which has to be fatigue allowance personal allowance has to be added. Now these allowances even has to be added because we cannot assume or it is not possible that it is continuous we have to get same output in per hour every time same and same so that these different allowances are being added again and again which leads to final higher productivity now. So overall we can summarize the in the work study there is a method study and work measurement. In the method study the basic aim of the method study from the work study technique is to simplify the job okay and then to develop the more economical methods for doing the job first to simplify it many times simplified the job as as possible we have to simplify the job and that job we have to develop the more economical methods of doing that job. The second one in that case is the work measurement in the work measurement what we have done it to analyze to determine how long that has been carried out as I have told in the previous sentences also that work measurement should be carried out to we have to reduce the time in that case in that case we have to if we are reducing the time means we are leading to higher productivity now there is observed time rating factor we have multiplied it and allowances we have to add it. So this gives us after giving see observed time into rating factor plus allowances give us the standard time let us assume that observed time is 10 and that it is fully automatic so we have to take the rating factor of 100 so 10 minutes plus allowances of 12 percent so it becomes 112 put together so how much job so this is called the standard time now in a week if we assume that 480 minutes are there if 480 minutes are there in shift we can say in 480 minutes how much the jobs can be taken so this calculation we will see in the further slides where finally it leads to the conclusion that with the help of work study method study and work measurement we are getting the higher productivity. The references used for this are NPTEL site and the book called introduction to work study by ILO. Thank you.


What's up navigation traders welcome to this week's video update today's Friday 15th This is our weekly review of our trades for the week that we do every week exclusively for pro Members so before we jump into our alerts I want to recognize this week's winner of who got caught being hot in the community So if I open this up This week's winner shared some great research answered some questions from other traders and asked some great questions, too So this week goes to Charlie wissin aunt Congrats Charlie. You got caught being hot and a lot of good engagement this week If you haven't been in the community or if you haven't been in there in a while make sure you check it out We've got some some members posting some really good stuff Including you know might continues to post his earnings trades every day, which has been really cool to watch Just other people posting great stuff, too So if you haven't been in there a while make sure you check that out It's growing rapidly and becoming a really great resource for our membership So let's jump into the alert starting with Monday the 11th Our first trade was a closing adjusting trade in IYR, which is the real estate ETF We had an we had on an iron condor price breached our upside break even so we closed out the untested side So we're still holding the call vertical side of that You can see prices has moved really significantly at a range now and if we look at a chart of IYR I mean man look at this thing I mean that is just a parabolic move to the upside You know we were joking in the community earlier this week that I don't think the the markets allowed to go down anymore I mean look that is just crazy And so we're just gonna continue to manage as we can the in addition to that Closing that out. We also added another kind of tight iron condor IYR is such a low-price symbol You know 84 bucks that we really need to squeeze in our short strikes To get the credit necessary, but you can see this one price is still hanging out well within our range So we're just gonna continue to manage that as needed on the on the short call vertical piece You know we we do want to get back to a positive theta position So we'll look to potentially either roll or just close this one out But you know man I've just been kind of waiting for a little bit of a retracement Before we did anything and like I said this thing's just been parabolic So give it a little bit more time and we'll manage as we see fit Next trade was a closing adjusting trade in DIA So we had two sets of short call verticals We got down to the point with our one in February with there's only four days to expiration So we went ahead and just closed that one out We could have rolled it, but we didn't need that additional short Delta So we went ahead and just closed that one out and we're still holding our other short call vertical And so if we take a look at that you can see you know the Dow's been strong as well prices moved out of the range here So just holding on to that. I do want to look to add another iron condor Remember this is a short call vertical that was originally from an iron condor Plot volatility is the tiny bit too low I mean if we just get a little bit of a pop higher look for us to add another centered iron condor around the current price in DIA Next trade was a closing adjusting trade in SPY So we kind of a similar situation We had a short call vertical from an iron condor and SPY just four days left in the February cycle So we went ahead and closed that out If we take a look at SPY We've still got two pieces on here So we've got our short call vertical that's left from the piece that we closed out the untested side You can see prices moved a little bit at a range there So just hoping for a little bit of a downside to get back into range and then we've also got another full iron condor Where you can see prices moved up from the center, but still well within range So nothing else to do on that at this point Next trade was a opening adjusting trade in SPY So that was the iron condor that I just showed you so that was the very next trade Then we had a an opening trade in Baidu So this is we like to do pre earnings long straddles or pre earnings long strangles in this in this case We we widened out our strikes a little bit to lessen the amount of capital And the testing showed a little bit better results with widening the strike So look for about a 20% profit here It looked like price was moving up and we were going to be able to knock that out fairly quickly If we just got another up day But price reversed this morning. So if we look at Baidu, it's come right back into center So we're down a little bit on this trade and I'll show you what I was talking about You know, we're this morning. We're up here and you know, it looked like price may continue higher And if we just got up to around this, I just set these lines on the chart If it got up to about there, that would have been a point of potentially exiting for a nice profit But price reversed going against the market Baidu's down Over two and a half percent today while the rest of the market is up around a percent Depending on what index you're looking at So anyway, we're just gonna hold this one. We've got earnings coming up on The 21st February 21st after the market close. So we definitely want to be out of the trade by then So we'll see if we can get a little bit of a move either down or back up To get a little bit of profit before we jump out of that one Next trade closing trade in Netflix So we had a short put vertical on in Netflix booked over 40% of max profit in just five days on that one We originally put this on just to kind of balance our portfolio get a little bit a little bit of long delta in there And we did uh, we it moved up nicely and we were able to book a nice profit in Netflix Speaking of our portfolio balance We've got we're at about three and a half to one On our short delta versus theta ratio Our partly because our theta numbers were getting so small We've been taking trades off making adjustments with which reduces our overall theta a lot of times And so our theta numbers are low and because of the continued up move We continue to acquire a little bit more and more short delta as the market moves up So we went ahead and uh, anyway, we closed that one out booked a nice profit But we're at about three and a half to one. I'd like to stay around between two and three at this point We're not really at any kind of major major market extremes. Although the market has been just Rallying and in fact, let's just take a look at a chart of the s and p To get an idea of what it's been doing since the beginning of the year. I mean look at that I mean just very little pullbacks here and there so Hopefully we can get some two-sided action pretty soon That'll do a couple things for us that'll help our short delta if we just get a little bit of a retracement And it will create some volatility in the market So hopefully get some of these symbols that are hovering in the lower IV range to get a pop in implied volatility Which will give us the opportunity to enter new positions as well. So that would be good all across the board Next trade was a closing trade in snap, which is snapchat Booked over 45 of max profit in just eight days. This was a And that should not be short put vertical We just did naked short puts in there and that was a post earnings short put play So if we take a look at a chart of snap What you'll see here is after earnings they had a good earnings announcement Moved the price moved Beyond the expected move. So what we like to do there is sell puts or put verticals in this case We just we just sold naked puts with the anticipation that price is going to grind sideways to higher Which is what it did it took a little bit of heat after the first day and then popped higher And we went ahead and exited For a nice profit of over 45 percent of max profit on that one. So we're at a snap Next trade closing trade in e-w-w Closed out our short strangle had to make several adjustments on e-w-w and stayed mechanical And booked a really nice profit on that trade Next trade was a rolling adjusting trade in xlv So we got down to the point where we were holding a couple positions still in february This was right on the break even point. So if we would have just got a small move down We would have we could have closed this booked a profit ended up moving a little bit higher So we went ahead and rolled to keep that short delta exposure and Extend duration on that trade So we moved that into march with 30 days to expiration kept the same strikes and picked up a little bit of a credit on that roll So if we look at xlv It's since has gone up pretty decent in amount So it's now out of our range a little bit by just holding this for some of that short delta exposure Hopefully we get back into range and can book a profit on that one Next trade was an opening trade in e-w-w. So we jumped back in implied volatility stayed At a decent level is that iv percentile is at 62 at that time So we're we're in kind of no man's land right now where march had 29 days to expiration So under under that 30 day mark that we like to get in And april had over 60, you know We had we'd like to be within that 30 to 60 in this case. We opted to go with april start building our positions out in april At that point had 63 days to expiration And so if we look at e-w-w you can see still very centered here not much movement Since we put that on just yesterday Next trade was a rolling adjusting trade in ford slash es. So this was our last February position and we went ahead and we held this one all we were already at kind of the max loss on this piece of the trade And with the futures you're not going to get assigned until expiration dates So there's no issue with with holding in the money positions In futures in the es And that's why one of the reasons why we just held on just in case there was a you know a dynamic Move lower We were just kind of holding on to that as a little bit of a lottery ticket But got down to expiration wanted to keep this one on as one of our short delta hedges And so we went ahead and in this case we we went ahead and skipped over march and rolled straight to april with 62 day 63 days to expiration at that point and uh So that's where we're at on that one. So let's take a look And you can see the price after the rolls moved up a little bit, but still within range So again, just holding that for that short delta exposure The next trade was an opening trade. So these are today's trades on friday. We did an iron condor in invidia And um, and we're targeting 30 to 40 percent of max profit there They just announced earnings last night. And so, uh, but we the the implied volatility crush did happen But ivy percentile still hanging out above that 50 level when we put this on And so we went ahead and we were looking for you know, there's a lot of symbols that are starting to get lower and lower implied volatility So we're really searching. Uh, we we prefer to do Sell premium iron condors short strangles. We prefer to do that in etfs or futures first But if there's nothing available and we're looking to enter new positions We'll look at stocks next and we don't like to deal with the earnings announcements and so forth But with invidia just announcing earnings, we're not gonna have to deal with that for another quarter And implied volatility was still a little bit, uh, elevated. It's already gone down to 48 We put this on when it was at 54 And so just holding that hopefully price stabilizes and we could continue to collect some theta on invidia And lastly, we did another opening trade where we sold some more premium in this case in forge slash 6b, which is the british pound And as I mentioned, we did a strangle, but you could also look at iron condors if you wanted to define your risk Which I know a couple of members did so If we look at fxb, which is the corresponding etf To get a good read on the implied volatility. See implied volatility is still nice and high popped up to 76 And so we went ahead and sold some premium in forge slash 6b And so you can see that's that's pretty well right where we put it on And so just waiting for some time to pass in 6b, uh, I mentioned this in the community earlier this week, but um If we take a look, uh They just released the april and may option cycles Uh before when I even though implied volatility was thigh high earlier this week I did not put on a position Because there is the march options with less than 30 days to expiration And then there was june with 112 But they just released these april and may cycles, which is great So we went ahead and jumped into the april cycle with 49 days to expiration And I talked about I've talked about this quite a bit, but keep in mind this is on toss Uh thinkorswim if you are trading on tasty works, they label the expiration months on futures a little bit differently So always pay attention to the days to expiration And I always post those in the alert so that you know which cycle we are dealing with So those are all the alerts. Let's take a look at some of our other positions oils moving up, uh nicely today up over a percent and a half Here's the aggregate of both of our both of our pieces. We've got um You know pretty well centered within the two. Let's separate these and look at them separately Let me reset this so I can check the appropriate boxes So we've got the 53 call 58 put this inverted strangle You can see we're we're well over 50 of max profit And what i'm going to look to do is early next week on one of these I will you know, we've got 28 days to expiration So it's not like we're down to that 21 days to expiration yet of where we like to roll these these strangles But I'm going to roll one of them and kind of spread out our rolls Because the next expiration cycle Which in oil would be the may with 60 now we're under that 60 days to expiration So i'm going to go ahead and roll one of those out from april out to may And so you'll get alert and alert for that early next week The uh So anyway, so they're pretty centered here and we're making making good money back in oil getting back from that massive move that it had late last year and then this one too Still very centered so Just gonna roll one of these we'll probably roll the more narrow one, which is this one the 54 call 56 put Because smaller price moves will really affect That profit line you can see it's a little steeper because these are are more narrow So this is the one we will look to roll and go ahead and lock in That credit roll out to the next expiration cycle I'll look at the strikes early next week, but assuming it's kind of staying centered here We may just leave our strikes the same or we may you know, if it's right around 55 we may just sell a 55 straddle in the next cycle and just continue to get a little bit less inverted Although we're we're pretty close to a straddle right now. So either would be fine We will we'll look at those strikes next week right before we do the trade Uh, yes, I mentioned natty gas is moving up almost a percent today at this point We've got two different pieces on in here Both of them are hanging out near the lower end of the range If we could just get a little bit upside movement in that gas that would be a huge benefit To our trade and overall position You can see I mean that gas has just been a crazy ride Had had that huge move up in october november of last year then reversed and completely fell Price completely fell and then looked like it was going to rally back up to new highs and it completely reversed again. So But you know what? I mean, we've been we've been managing just fine. We're we're managing back and Assuming price will finally stabilize at some point. We'll get back to Get back to profits here within the next couple cycles Again, I mean if we could just get a little bit of a pop higher between 2.7 2.8 That would be perfect And but we'll just manage as needed So we've got the two pieces there both of them are hanging out in the lower end of the range As you can see here, this one's a little bit more in range But again, if we could just get a little bit of a pop higher that'd be a huge benefit to that trade wheat Earlier this week we were we're I actually had an ordering to get to uh to exit this wheat trade Uh never got filled price kind of reversed And came back down. So now we're just in hold and wait I mentioned bydu I mentioned di a eem We've got this short call vertical spread Just holding for a little bit more downside to benefit that piece We would potentially look to add to this if implied volatility Got higher, but you can see it's pretty low. So we're just going to manage this spread as we've got it on now Uh, obviously if it goes lower, we can book profits if it goes higher We'll make the necessary adjustments or trades as we see fit E w w I already mentioned that one. We've got that short strangle E w z We've got this adjusted strangle, which is which is a 42 straddle at this point Um, excuse me Earlier this week when price was a little bit lower Uh, I was thinking we were going to have a chance to potentially book this one and get out with a profit Uh, we're we're pretty close to break even even where it is right now I think we're down just a tiny bit or right out of break even on our trade overall after adjustments Uh, but we'll just continue to keep this one and manage as necessary Um, you can see yesterday when price was right down here I mean we were at a place where obviously in hindsight I wish I would have went ahead and booked that one and then it just made a huge rally Uh at second half of the day and it's moving a little bit higher today Plied volatility is really low. So I was hoping price would just creep a little bit lower and we'd get out of that one But uh, but that's where we're at on that still in good shape IWM The Russell 2000 ETF we've got a couple pieces on here We've got a short call vertical from a previous iron condor Price has moved a little bit out of range here. Just looking for a little downside to get back in And then we've got our other full iron condor where you can see prices hanging out near near the break even If we take a look at the value of the puts you can see we're pretty close Uh, you know, we could have made an adjustment today because most of that value is out But I just want to give it over the weekend see if by chance we could get a little bit of downside movement get back into range Uh in IWM IWM of course with the rest of the market has just been absolutely strong And so if we could just get a little bit of downside that would really help I mentioned IYR Nvidia I mentioned that one Uh qqq We've got uh, we've got an iron. Oh, whoops. That's Nvidia and qqq We've got two short call verticals on here still We've got the 166 171, which is this one where price is a little bit out of range So just holding this for that short delta exposure And then we've got the 172 175 where you can see price is within range here So just holding both of these for that short delta. Hopefully we can get a little bit of downside movement That would help those as well SMH we've got two different pieces on here We've got our one with two contracts and that is our adjusted strangle here We can see price has moved out of range and it's just been kind of hanging out here We hadn't made an adjustment because there was still a decent amount of premium left in the puts That's getting to a point where we're we're needing to potentially adjust but same thing I'm just kind of holding this over the weekend if price moves much higher We will roll these puts up If we if it moves down then we'll just continue to manage We're still in march here with 28 days to expiration So ideally we'd get a little bit of downside in price Wait till we get down to about 21 days to expiration and then roll out to april on that piece And then we've got our other Short strangle that we put on to add some more credit. This one's got three contracts. You can see price We've got some profit on this one not quite enough to book yet. So just holding on holding onto that piece for now SPY I mentioned that one XL K the healthcare ETF. We've had this one on for some short delta exposure. It's a long put vertical So just looking for some downside to get back into range there XL V I mentioned that one. That was the one that that was real close to being profitable We just went ahead and rolled it to collect a credit extend duration. So just looking for some downside on that one And lastly xrt the retail ETF. We've got an adjusted strangle here 41 call 43 put so slightly inverted Still a decent amount left in those puts so not quite ready to make an adjustment yet But hopefully we get a little bit downside movement there Now let's take a look at the implied volatility Yeah, I mean it's close if if we get a little bit of a pop up in implied volatility I would look to potentially add On to this trade by entering a new centered strangle And I would do that now in the april cycle where we're under 60 days To expiration So those are all the alerts. Those are all the positions. Everybody have a great weekend. We'll talk to you next week


Our fifth inductee is Brad Friedel. Brad was the MVP of the men's tennis team as a senior as he played from 1996 to 2000. He recorded 24 singles wins and 23 doubles victories in his career and later went on to serve as an assistant coach and later a head coach for the Mustangs. Not a typical tennis coach, I would say. I would say you're generally your tennis coach at your thinking.    And I think that's what I appreciate most about him.  I got to play with him a lot at, you know, but this is just the college is, you know, one of those times in your life you're going to remember and he really wanted to make sure it was, he was impactful in making sure it was a memorable experience for us and it was that memorable experience. But he's just not your typical, you know, tennis coach, you know, he brought something different to the game. And I think that's where you have leaders, you have great coaches that they bring something different to the game. And that's what he, that's what he did.  And, you know, he has a wife and kids and all that kind of stuff. So he wasn't just a coach, but he was a mentor. And that's what really impacted me and something I really, I feel like I sought the approval of him as like a cooler older brother that I always, you know, looked up to.  But, you know, I hopefully will.   And that's, it's very exciting. From the class of 2000, it is my honor to welcome Brad Friedel into the Dick Watts Athletics Hall of Fame. It is absolutely outstanding to be home finally. After all these years, I'm back. It's been unbelievable seeing some of these familiar faces that I shared the athletic department with. Ms. Fran, Carol Zimmerman, Stephanie, Coach Raymer, Coach Adams.  I can't help but stand here and not talk about the journey that I went on, being a part of the athletic department, the tennis program, the soccer program. So, I came in as a freshman as a soccer player, played in the fall season, came into the spring, Coach Adams was the coach of the tennis team, went out, went to practice, 7 AM practices, hitting balls after balls, feeding thousands of balls, we would hit every day. We got our first win against Caldwell College. I can remember that clear as day. You know, we weren't, and we really, we really enjoyed that victory. Let me tell you, we weren't the most humble group of individuals when we won that match. The next morning for practice, 7 AM practice, Coach Adams comes in, everybody on the line, like, wow, this is how we celebrate a victory around here. What's going on? So, we sprint, we sprint and we sprint and we backpedal to the baseline and we sprint to the net.  It's like somebody grabbed people's ankles from underneath that tennis court where you yank them down the ground. And there's all more people fall to the ground in my life on that team. But I wasn't going to go down. I was not going to fall. My leg was wobbling. I was shaking. I was moving back to the baseline, but I wasn't going to go down.  What happened? We just won our first collegiate match. And Coach Adams looked at us and said, it's the name of your jersey. It's isn't about you. It's isn't necessarily about the team. It's not about me, but it's about the name of the university of the college that you're representing. And that stuck with me.  And transitioning into my sophomore year, the coach left for the soccer team, and they were building a fall and a spring season for tennis. And I'm like, there's something going on good with this tennis program. I want to be a part of it. So Coach Eventov came in and really took me to another level with my game. I mean, he was a university Maryland player division one. I mean, he really understood what it took to compete at a higher level. The team, sophomore and junior years, we weren't as competitive. Came upon my senior year that I was really debating whether or not I wanted to continue to play tennis. I was really considering actually going back and finishing my final year as a soccer player. And Coach Adams came to me, him and Coach Duncan. And he looked at me and he said, Brad, I'm going to do whatever it takes to make this final year of your senior season memorable. He's like, myself and Coach Duncan, we're going to coach this team. We're going to have players, we're going to have enough for a team for you to be out here to compete. And I looked at them and I believed them. And it was absolutely the best thing I could have did. We got into that fall, in the fall season, we played in the Catholic University tournament, which for me, I mean, not being in a conference, I mean, that was like our Super Bowl of tennis. Mary Washington, which was a powerhouse tennis university. Loyola, Maryland, St. Mary's College, they were all there and they had some outstanding tennis programs then. And I can remember, I was so excited waiting for the draw. I'm like, man, this is it. This is why I'm playing. I want to be out here. I want to compete. I want to show them what Villa Giulia is all about. And I got the draw and I got the, I think he was the number two player, but was playing number one that day, David Bristow. I remember his name. And I'm like, Mary Washington, this is what we want to do. This is why I'm out here.  I went to the tennis courts and just found people to hit with. I was like, I'm going to be ready for this tennis match. I want to represent my college. And that morning it was, it was probably barely above freezing. I got my warm-up pants on. I'm out there. The very, it was the first game. David Bristow, me and him, we're hitting forehand, backhand, cross court. It was a fantastic rally. It was like, I'm in this. I can compete with any of these guys. He lays probably the 25th ball. He lays this drop shot, barely over that. I'm like, oh my gosh, I'm on my horse, right? I'm like, there's no way this ball is going to bounce twice. I'm not losing this point. Rather than I wasn't going to get there. I wasn't going to lay out and be able to get to that ball. So instead, like most normal tennis players would do, I dove on a hard court in my warm-up pants in 32 degree weather and I laid there. And the first thing I did is I turned and I looked at David Bristow and he looked at me like, what are you doing?  And then I hear, Brad, Brad, are you okay? I looked at my left and there's Coach Adams. And I'm like, yeah, Coach, I'm okay. Oh my gosh. I got up. My warm-up pants looked like I went into the woods and had a 12-round battle with a bear. I'm not kidding you. My pants were tore from the top of my leg down to the bottom.  I ended up losing 6-4-6-2. But the moral of that story is Coach Marty Dowd, who was very well known in the tennis community. He was the head coach at Catholic University. He put his arm around me and he said, Brad, he's like, you did yourself well today.  And that's all I wanted to do. That's all I wanted to do when I was out there playing tennis, is to compete and to represent this university the best way that I could. And the four years that I was here with the help of Coach Adams and Josh Eventol, getting me to the level that I needed to be, you know, I felt like that I gave everything that I could to this university because I owed it to the university to do that. You know, I would absolutely like to thank my parents, my father, who would always go out into a yard with me, no matter what the sport was, whether it was a soccer ball, baseball, driving me to the tennis courts, no matter what time of the night it was. He would always out there with me, throwing a ball, kicking a ball. I thank you for that. My mother, my biggest fan, she was my, didn't matter what I did. I think she would have been happy if I would have built Lincoln Logs for the rest of my life. She didn't care. But she was always in my corner, good or bad, did not matter. She said, Brad, I'm your number one fan, I'm your biggest supporter, I'll always be there. And I thank you for that. To my wife, who I met at Villa Jolie College, she used to come to my tennis matches all the time, would sit out there, would cheer me on, talk about motivation. You have this girl that you didn't want to necessarily know that, hey, I'm into this girl. But I want to keep it kind of like on the outskirts a little bit. I don't really want her to know that I really like her, but she was out there at all my matches.  And that was a great feeling. She said, Brad, I didn't know one thing that was going on in that tennis court. I didn't know if you were winning or losing or what the score was. I was like, well, that's even more amazing. That's unbelievable. That's fantastic. And eventually we got married. And we have two kids who are back there tonight, Braden and Callie, who I coach my son in soccer, and I train my daughter in soccer.  They give 100% effort all the time. They're always asking, daddy, can we go out and kick a ball? Can we do this? Can we do absolutely. I'm going to do the same for my kids that my parents did for me, because that's the least I can do. And that's what this university, what this college instilled in me.  I know it's, I'm tough to get along with maybe at times, maybe I'm a little out there at times, but I do appreciate you. My father-in-law, when he said, yeah, you can, you can marry my daughter, I was like, oh gosh, this is, this could be, this could be a big downer. I'm going to, I'm building up, it's 10 years we've been dating.  But he didn't, he backed me, and I appreciate that. Thank you for giving me the opportunity to stand up here, be a part of the Hall of Fame to all the inductees. Congratulations. I really appreciate the opportunity and being part again of the Outstanding University is the best time of my life. Thank you very much.


Let me give you a quick refresher on the rules just in case you're new This is the wheel of 2k and starting with an all-amethyst lineup I'm gonna spin the wheel to improve this team in order to keep those players that I add I must win the next game I play we get one team captain, which is dark matter 99 Yanis on ten a kumpo for this season and we get one power-up player Which is the luka dodge it you see here every time I get ten in any stat with luka I can upgrade to the next best version ten points ten assists you get it each season is 12 games And there is a challenge associated with whatever my record is so currently episode number two We are one and one and honestly I got a little lucky I think our start to wheel a 2k was very rocky, but it's only up from here with ten games remaining a Permanent tattoo and taking a subscriber courtside are both off the table However, everything else you see here is very possible if we continued on this trend of one win-and-one loss I would land at six and six which is where I give away three NBA playoff tickets to one subscriber If I start to play better It could be a 12-hour live stream or going to a playoff game with two subscribers at eight and four if I play a Little worse. I might have to record a beer mile or rekindle with an X That's what it looks like right now either way. Let's hop into this episode. It was good wheel 2k I'm currently at the NFL draft. I know this looks a little bizarre, but I wanted to cook up an awesome entry on prize picks for The NBA playoffs so huge. Thank you to prize picks for sponsoring I've got Yolkic and Durant to both go off in their first game So I'm both of them going more on their points and I'm placing a $25 entry when $75 when you sign up for prize picks use promo code MMG for a deposit match up to $100 and as always play responsibly enjoy the rest of the videos So looking at my team right now. Luckily, we did add Yolkic in episode one So that's awesome, but I learned a lot of things early number one The shot releases are a lot different than I remember number two. The meta is still super super tall players So as much as I love Yolkic being 6 foot 11 is kind of short for the meta And lastly I turn over the ball a lot and I have a long way to go for on ball defense But I know we can get there. This is only our second episode and my third game of 2k So we're gonna be alright now the next step up for Luca Doncic is the 94 diamond This would be a plus eight overall boost It would be a massive upgrade So a big goal for today's episode is definitely to get Luca moving in some variety The Chicago Raw Dawgers and head coach Brianna Stewart are ready for another game Let's get in our first spin on the wheel of 2k for anybody who's new We're gonna get an addition here, but I must win the game To keep that addition. It's a rookie jackpot Dude, I think we're about to play a really big basketball if this works out how I think it is So the rookie I want is Paulo Banqueiro. He has a galaxy opal Okay, so by Carol can play power forward or small forward now add small forward He's a little shorter than Yanis who I have a small forward now I think I could take Paulo put him at small. I could put Yanis at the four and I could put Yolkic at the five I think this is my best option for a rookie Dude the 2k market is crazy by the way pretty much every player in the game is less than 20 K MT Other than the best players in the game who are a million plus Paulo Banqueiro for only 14,000 MT We're gonna get a six foot ten big boy small forward This is gonna be interesting But the important part is that I have a significant amount of good starters Banqueiro comes in for Yanis Yanis comes in for Yolkic Yolkic goes in for Shaq We still have Luke on the starting lineup. We still have Amethyst Steph, but Amethyst Steph is a sharp shooter, bro I love that Steph.  So coming off the bench is Penny Doug Collins T Mac Anthony Davis and Shaq our starters are now Steph Curry Luca Donchich, Paulo Banqueiro, Yanis on Tericumbo and Nikoli Yolkic. That's pretty dope man I think Phenom's Banqueiro could be really good Just like Yanis, he's gonna be a mismatch for a lot of small forwards and of course before we hop into a game We have the challenge wheel completing this challenge gives me one pack of my choice From the store. It is to green with three separate players Normally, this is honestly a really easy challenge, but holy shit that first game I struggled so bad with releases I think I got like a couple greens with curry and that was it so best case scenario We can green with curry we can green with Yanis and maybe Yolkic, maybe Banqueiro All right boys my opponents lineup Jordan Poole, Andra Iguodala, Jalen Williams, Kat, and I sat at the end of the world It's a solid lineup. No dark matters though. It's a great start. All right. Let's see it, baby Hey, we got the tip.  No, no, no. Yes. One more pass. Put it up Hey, I don't know how that went through but I want to get Luca those ten assists again Luca who is also nine overalls higher than previously and he starts out with a turnover beautiful. Oh, yep. Help side Yolkic one Oh Damn, I got to work on my releases tough. Also. I did not get shot release feedback But I mean I know that was I know that was early. Oh good pass. Good bucket. Oh He spaces he's got nothing. This is real good defense right now. Let's get it Let's go run the court run at Yanis all the way got to be all the way We'll take the file also. I could get a green right now with Yanis on the free throw. Oh I don't I actually break the free throw. All right I guess we're rocking no shot feedback today, which is kind of a bummer because I really like shot feedback Hey, but we got a green with Yanis. Okay, this is the only challenge by the way We're free throws count for greens you usually can't use free throws But since I got to get it with three different players, we're gonna count free throws to that Good little pump for it from Yanis get straight in. All right one point lead. We've got one single Oh got his shot meter. So ugly. Oh, yep into Yolkic. Oh, he's got position. Let's go That's two assists for Luca Donchich and and we're playing pretty well and this guy sucks He's got T-Mac up there making some moves I'm gonna practice my on ball here with Yanis. Hey, I love that animation. Oh, oh Green bank shot from petty hardaway. All right, I've got a green with two players right now He might have just green too damn I mean, oh All right, well that doesn't count towards our challenge But it does give us a three point lead and another assist for Luca hand up No Someone come over. Yeah. Hey pass out a shot. Let's go get in there. Hey, you know what? I'll take that who is guarding Shaq That AI guarding Shaq. Let's go an assist over 1.7 on the clock He's just got to put one up good defense dude a really good first quarter 14 to 14 I think I have five assists Luca Donchich and I hardly use my starters in that in that quarter All right, we're just gonna have the starters in here.  When's that ever gonna work? Damn, all right another good take by him. He takes a four-point lead to start out here. That's no good. All right I'll take that What a slam from the honest I got to get better with my passing here He's cooking. I don't think he got that. Damn. He did Dougie Collins. Good D Honest protecting the pain. Let's work up to Bob Carol. I'm gonna take the three with them. Oh Really? Who's on me down here? Who's on me? That looks like a mismatch if I ever saw one Let's get it. All right. Finally scored in the second. All right, Dougie Collins. Let's get that on ball He got me. He got me. He got me.  He retreats. No way Yanis you can't finish that.  No way Yeah, ball don't lie, baby ball don't lie Out tee. No, no, no, no, no. That was supposed to go to Yanis Good defense. Hey, we get a shot clock. Who's garden? Yoke, it's looks like a little boy He Mac on Yoke, it's how did that happen? I take it. Hey, can we green it? We get the green with the old kids. That's a green with three separate players. Let's go challenge complete That's a good start. I don't know though free throws is kind of cheesy for that. I'm not gonna lie now that I think about it I don't know if I want to do the free throws thing in the future. Oh T-Mac gonna cross left go right to the rim. I knew he'd buy see if I can play a little on ball defense Oscar D ask great defense Beautiful. Hey, let's cut it to three cut the lead to three right now boys.  Come on, man. I got Bon Kero on AI here. See this is the exact Mismatch, I'm looking for on on offense though. Hey, yeah, he's speedy. Nice play. Nice play. Yep. Yep Good kick out by Carol.  I got a hand up with Anthony Davis. He got open I got there late. Hey, he missed one too.  He's waiting for last shot. I'm gonna go off ball here I think my caro's kind of got him good great defense had not going in time out point seven to get a decent shot I just got to get a halfway decent shot up here by Carol I got it in any bricks another. Well, I guess you know, I shouldn't be talking about Bon Kero shooting threes I have no idea what his three-point rating is I probably should have checked that before I just started hucking these Palo Bon Kero galaxy opal his shot three point Isn't 92 so yeah, I do kind of expect him to hit those. All right, 2926. Yannis is still hot I I think this is locked down defender Lucas back into great defense and It finally got given up Good damn really I'm just gonna go straight up with this Bon Kero inside misses again Another bad start to the court Jordan pull from real deep.     Oh, I got him. I got him the green We needed that big time man Good deal catch came across. I thought we'd get him and a hedge the screen into Yokech Hey, that is beautiful basketball gentlemen. He knows I'm coming in the paint But yep dish over to Luca or not Luca Yokech Sorry, I got a I got a couple different white dudes with tough names here just one stop at a time boys That's all it takes. He puts up a pretty dude. How many threes is he gonna green like that? All right, Luca wide open for three the slowest release I've ever seen and he bricks it an eight-point deficit and all amethyst in I don't know how I feel about that Okay, I believe Devin Booker wide open though and I like that Devin Booker release He's gonna drill it team act on team act minds and amethyst is a diamond though. That's the only difference Dude Luca just keeps getting oh, okay. Okay. Good defense.  It's a three-point ball game.  Oh, I jumped a little aggressively Ooh good moves Devin Booker. We're going to the line in the bonus. This is nice.  Oh Open three. Oh, no, it was open. Hey How the turns have tabled I did that about five times last game Let's see if we can hit all of these a great start for team act Yeah, now that I see it dude greening a free throw is so easy That that's kind of cheap that I did it. Do I have a look how many legitimate greens do I have? I think I have two I think I have curry and Yanis legitimately. No, I have curry and hardaway legitimately 47 45 I've got an on ball Good defense Great defense. Let's go and in the third quarter 47 to 45 down by two 47 45 he leaves curry Oh Oh my god, dude amethyst curry is he's out of his mind honestly He's the best if I can the best amethyst. Oh, he's gonna hit that. Yeah, great shot Dude, that guy has so many greens at Jordan pool. Is that funny? Okay, that works for me. I don't know how all of that just happened But I just got a legit green with the yokich So I completed the challenge anyway, so I feel good about that Uh little late Hey, he misses that one Jordan pool. It's not god But Davis. Oh my god. I believe we believe get up Davis Oh, he spaced great for that a little bit of a late release though. I'm gonna use the time out right now I do not want luke in at all luke. I'm sorry man. I love you. I'd love to get you an upgrade It ain't happening right now. This game is too close.  That was such a good game.  This is all amazing news. Number one paluban carol is locked into the lineup since we get a win there Number two if you get a rage quit you get an upgrade So luke does get his upgrade to diamond luke donchis That is huge dude that other that sapphire luke was a liability. This luke significantly faster 84 speed is still pretty slow, but but eventually he's gonna be a galaxy opal So I'll be excited to have the galaxy opal The second thing is I did complete my challenge whether you count free throws or not I completed it the yokich mid-range the penny hardaway three and the stuff curry three now the pack I'm gonna open is the out of position two pack one guaranteed player and four random items We got to get at least a diamond or better and this will be an amazing pack right here All right boys one pack for completing our challenge out of position two. Come on I just need a half foot. Oh, that's shaking. That's shaking. Oh, is that I assume that's a diamond, right? Hey, listen, I don't know what the pack animation time and opened a lot of packs But I think this is just at least a diamond western conference shooting guard. Yes number eight. Oh 94 It is a diamond. Oh, is that oh, it's tiras Terrence Ross. All right. I guess his card art is not loading in but I'll take a Terrence Ross Where is Terrence Ross six foot seven shooting guard? What are his stats looking like? It's got a 93 three pointer 85 steel 89 speed 97 vert I'll take it man. We move on to our next game. Which is game four a record is two and one I'll check back in with the challenge sheet after this game gentlemen Honestly, I'd say I want a point guard, but curry's been so good I think I just replaced curry with a maybe another curry or something It's a pink diamond player, which isn't amazing, but it's on the positions wheel So I can take any pink diamond in the game, but they must be This position it looks like it's gonna be center actually So our backup center is potentially going to be an absolute demon. Now. This is a jackpot So I could take literally anybody so I need to now figure out what's the most meta pink diamond center The first thing my brain thinks of is is there a taco fall? There's not a taco fall. Is there a y'all mean? There's not a y'all mean. Okay, apparently there's a david robinson I would definitely take a david robinson y'all so there's a pink diamond center david robinson seven foot one 235 pounds. He's a little light, but he's fast though. He's fast at y'all could just be with the ball isn't there Hey, I mean, he's a pink diamond, right? I'm gonna try this david robinson is also the first player I picked up that is not a current player and by that I mean people I actually got on a wheel spin not just amethyst sitting on my line All right, the challenge wheel of course before our next game clutched up on the first one got the three greens Let's see what it is today Oh boy Oh boy, man. I'm not scoring that many points. I uh my tea I think I was on pace to score about 60 last game So if I'm gonna get 30 points one player they pretty much gotta score half my points And dude with how good this yannis is I feel like this is possible. All right boys the moment of truth Oh my god. Oh my god. Oh my god.  It is definitely better than his he's got ttv in there We got a twitch streamer boys. All right gentlemen We need 30 points with one player and we need 10 and any stat with luka. Who's on luka? Dude, what if we get luka points, huh? All right, he might get in there.  Well, I think it's pretty obvious who our 30 points has got to go to we should get it with yannis, right? Yannis with blade griffin on him. Let's just go up. Oh luka to yannis. Oh go up yannis. Ah wait, that could be insistent Oh curry curry clips back to yannis I'm gonna step back. Oh yannis Oh my god, am I trying to go over that double double with luka take him all the way up to his 97 overall galaxy opal Solid defense solid defense. Where's luka? Oh, he's not in right now. Let's see. All right Well, let's get our points with yannis then yannis with eight in the first crossing it to the lane Goes up on everybody, but he gets the board you psycho Pump fake paolo But kero, uh, we'll go to the line and that is a fast release Sheesh, so you've got a slow regular release, but a fast free throw.  You know what? I figured it out.  Oh, does it cross court to joe?   Good pump. Oh back to luka You got the position beauty beauty Zion on yokech.  I'm trying to bait him. I'm gonna hit jordan with that turnaround.  I'm in fire two points three assists Out to yokech for an easy three that's green Let's get it, baby. Let's um have one so he doesn't quit Oh my god, buddy.   We get luka the double double He skips his pink diamond and he goes straight to his 97 overall galaxy opal All of a sudden luka will actually be very serviceable. Oh, I'm gonna get that I'm gonna get the computer or I'm gonna get the user. Are you ready? I'm gonna fake run to the lane step back.    I love that shot I love that shot. He really wants this Steph Curry Do that dequate is cracked just give it to yannis and Buck it did we go hard enough, man We could just skip all the way to luka's full galaxy opal Damn yannis screen. You got to love that great cut Oh, carl anthony towns, bro. Come on.  Um, this is how people feel when they play me, dude That's just like what are you? What is this an actual six-year-old on a nintendo switch right now? I feel like you should be required to give a better effort than that All right. I need one more assist. I see someone to cut. Oh curry that works. Nice work Good defense Yannis is activated. I still don't know what that is But at this point, we just need luka three 10 points Ten assists. That's a double double.  We just need a couple more buckets with yannis I'll take it gotta get yannis 30 points 30 points one player And Yikes, I gotta work on free throws. Damn. I gotta like get in the lab or something man. This is pitiful. There we go You're kidding me. I actually just got my rebrand I don't know if I've ever done that in a 2k game with the shooter. Go go go go go No, let's get it All right 30 points for yannis and if we get the 30 points for yannis I'm gonna try and get 20 with luka and we will get his we will have cheesed our way to his galaxy opal Which which honestly is the best case.  Can my yannis always do this?   You're not luka Ooh Clean green from d wade challenge wheel complete upgrades for luka on the way. Can we take this even further? He's jumping Free Let's go all the way to the rack luka to this guy Like I said, man, this is never gonna happen again.   L. You couldn't have come in at a better time challenge l scores Okay, your goal is to score with luka don't shoot now. You have a luka. This is luka.  Who have you been sleeping with that place too? Okay, you just grained your foot.  How do you dunk? How do you dunk?   So now you hold this Yup, and then I was been streaming fortnite.  I'm gonna drop 30 with luka.  Yo, yanna's got the double double two yanna's unintentional double double Oh the MVP chance for luka. Is that what I hear in the crowd? He does leave the match, but honestly, I'm not gonna count that as a rage quit. Honestly, I think 2k just made a mistake I never should have been playing him. He was so bad. It was like, I can't count that as a rage quit The things I will count is my challenge wheel I scored 30 with yanna's and almost 30 with luka and luka with 20 points and 10 rebounds is three upgrades So diamond to pink diamond pink diamond and his first galaxy opal to his final galaxy opal We have the maxed out luka. So there are two lukas There's this galaxy opal luka and then there's galaxy opal all star luka But we get to skip the 97 because we just went so hard. I do want to see the stats on this luka though All right, so the stats right now obviously look amazing. This is only him compared to curry though He has a 94 speed and 92 speed with the ball. Okay, so he's gonna be so much quicker. That's huge Ladies and gentlemen, let's just see this comparison between our lukas So we really didn't get to see much out of diamond luka because you know this happened really quick The power up player usually does not get maxed out this fast. This was an anomaly So a big boost to defense.  That's amazing. Not to mention this luka donchich is a point guard So potentially I could use him instead of curry, but I do like curry a lot curry has been nasty He's a bit of a defensive liability, but that's it and of course we completed our challenge So we get one pack from the store. I'm gonna do the out of position two pack once again We just need a player need to see something shaken far left. It's a diamond It's another diamond game. I was really hoping for at least a pink diamond as long as it's not terence ross Eastern comfort shooting guard number four.  Wait a minute. That was a galaxy opal and Anton Jamison. I don't know much about Anton Jamison, but he's out of position. How big is Anton Jamison? I don't know anything about him. Anton Jamison is a six foot eight shooting guard. He's a big boy Anton Jamison can be my depth small forward. I still want curry to start, but I guess I'll put him as my depth small forward All right boys. Let's take a look at the cheat sheet. We are now three and one I'm not gonna lie. I got a little lucky today. I don't think that's gonna continue But three and three and one right now is amazing So a 24 hour live stream is still possible But very unlikely also in a thousand dollar charity don't know is possible But also unlikely honestly eight and four would be so cool if I could go to an nba playoff game with two subscribers That'd be really fun So I think I'm gonna aim for eight and four, but obviously I'm not gonna intentionally lose three games I just I just don't think I can keep getting as lucky as I just got I don't think there's any way I play a player that bad ever again. All right boys Thank you for watching as always. I'll see you in the next episode peace out


US-led airstrikes on Yemen's Houthi rebels in response to their attacks on shipping in the Red Sea pulled the world's focus Friday back on the years-long war raging in the Arab world's poorest nation, even a shipping across the wider Middle East remains threatened footage released on Friday by the United Kingdom's Royal Air Force reportedly show precision strikes on two locations in Yemen the day before. The RAF said in its release that one location, Bonnie in northwestern Yemen, was used to launch reconnaissance and attack drones. A number of buildings involved in drone operations were targeted by our aircraft, the RAF said.An airfield in ABS was the second location it said was targeted by UK's fighter jets. Intelligence has shown that it has been used to launch both cruise missiles and drones over the Red Sea, it said, video also showed Royal Air Force Typhoon FGR-4S returning to its acro-Terry military base in Cyprus. The strikes threatened to ignite a regional conflict over Israel's war on Hamas and the Gaza Strip, something the Biden administration and its allies have been trying to calm for weeks.


If you're riding fixed, you need to have some kind of foot retention in order to help you stop. Today, we're going to tell you all about it. Hi everyone, I'm here again with George who's going to break down how to install pedals and straps on your bike. Thanks Amanda. We're going to start with installing the pedals. And if you notice, there's a left pedal and a right pedal. It's marked at the end of the bolts. It's very important that you pay attention to this because you can strip your crank and then you're screwed. Another important thing that you want to know about the pedals is that on the left side, you tighten it actually to the left. And on the right side, when you're threading it in, you tighten it to the right. So we're going to start off with the right one. What you're going to need to install the pedals is a 15mm pedal wrench and some grease. First what you want to do is just put a small amount of grease either on the pedal or inside the crank. Now, your fingers, you want to go ahead and get the thread started. It should be very easy to thread in it. There's problems, stop, pull it out and try again. Okay, once you've got it in there quite a bit, you take your 15mm pedal wrench. There's two flat spots, you put it right there and you begin to turn it right. If I put the wrench on here and I just spin the crank, it can make it a little easier on myself. So I don't have to actually spin the wrench, I can just spin the crank. Once I get there and it's snug, make sure that you get it nice and tight. You don't want to be too light on it, you want to make sure that it's there. Now, we're going to put on the straps. On the strap, there's usually also an L and an R to mark the side of the pedal that it goes on. You see the R, it's for the right side, we're doing the right pedal. Feed it through the buckle and you feed it about halfway down. At this point, you can close it for the meantime while you do the next straps. On the straps that go through the pedal, the longer side is the side that's going to be going through the front of the pedal. So now we take the strap and we feed it through the two holes here on the pedal that are designed to take this strap. Feed the front one through and there's also another hole and you feed it through there. Now that you have the front in, you do the exact same thing with the rear strap. So now, you open the strap and you can put these down and they velcro right in very easily. And now you're set up to adjust it to your foot. This simply goes back down, you have your foot retention. And pretty much that's how you install your pedals and your straps for your fixed gear bicycle. Thanks again for the info, George. If you have something to say, we want to hear it.

Hello students, let's work out the following question. It says express the following as product of parts of its prime factors. So let's proceed on to the solution. The given number is 648 and we have to express this number as product of parts of its prime factors. So what we need to do first, we need to find the prime factors of 648. So let's find out the prime factors of 648 by prime factorization method. The smallest prime number by which 648 can be divided is 2 since it's even number so it can be divided by 2. Dividing 648 by 2 gives us 324. Now again the smallest prime by which 324 can be divided is 2. Dividing 384 by 2 gives us 162. Again we divide 162 by 2 gives us 81. Now the smallest prime by which 81 can be divided is 3. Dividing 81 by 3 gives us 37. Again we divide 27 by 3 and it gives us 9. Dividing 9 by 3 gives us 3 and dividing 3 by 3 gives us 1. Therefore 648 can be written as 2 into 2 into 2 into 3 into 3 into 3 into 3. Now we are multiplying 2 3 times so the exponent form of 2 into 2 into 2 would be 2 raised to the power 3 and now we are multiplying 3 4 times so the exponent form of 3 into 3 into 3 would be 3 to the power 4. So we have expressed 648 as product of powers of its prime factors and it is raised to the power 3 into 3 raised to the power 4 and this completes the question. Bye for now take care have a good day.


Gee, it's almost Thanksgiving and I've got so much to be thankful for I've got a wonderful wife two wonderful kids and an adorable personality RCA Victor were leader in radio first and recorded music and first in television presents the Phil Harris Alice Faye show Brenner and Frank gold with Elliott Lewis Walter Tetley John Hubbard Janine Ruse and Whitfield Walter sharpness music and yours truly Bill Foreman tonight's little saga is called the birthday gift or Nevermind the present mother.

You might then be able to put more money into the HSA health savings account yourself, which would not be reflected on the W2, right? So now I can go, okay, well, they put some money in, but they didn't max it out. I could still put more money in there. So let's say I'm going to go jump to the data input. And let's say that here's where I put in that it was a self-only plan. So let's say that I then want to max out my contribution. And this is something, by the way, that is something I believe you have until the filing of the return, not including extensions. So in other words, we're looking at tax year 2023. You could set up the HSA. And if you haven't funded it, then you possibly might be something you don't have to do before the year end, which is usually most things you have to do for taxes, but rather up until April 15th of the following year, not including extensions for the filing deadline. So if I go back on over, you can see now it's putting in the 2008-50 here. So if I go then to my form 8889, let's just analyze this a bit. This is the health savings account. The HSA, we're looking at the self-only. So now we have the HSA contributions made for 2023, including those made by an extended due date of your tax return that were for 2023. So here's what the 2008-50, and then we have if you are under 55 at the end of 2023. And on the first day of every month during 2023, you were or were considered an eligible individual with the same coverage, enter 3,850. So if you have the family, that's where the 7,750 comes in. Enter the total you and your employer contribute to your Archer MSA. So we don't have an Archer MSA that was kind of like the old thing. We're onto the new thing. And then we subtract and then enter the amount from line five. But if you and your spouse each have separate HSAs and have family covered under HDHP at any time during 2023, see the instructions for the amount. So if you were age 55 or older at the end of 2023, married and you and your spouse had family coverage under an age-high deductible health plan at any time during 2020, enter the additional contribution and then add and then the employer contributions made into. So here's the employer contribution was 1,000. So we subtract that out. We have 2,850 that is still available. So the bottom line is you had a maximum because it's a single, it's a self plan, maximum 3,850. Your employer already put in 1,000. That's already given you a tax benefit reflected in the W2 by reducing line one of the forms. Therefore, it's been excluded from income before you even put it into the tax return. But then you contributed this other 2,850, which then isn't reflected in the W2 and therefore needs to be deducted somewhere else, which is why that's the part that's going to be on schedule one page number two. And then so it flows through here. And then it's going to flow through to the form 1040. So now we're at the 99. And then we've got the above the line deduction 2008 50 getting us to the 96 150 standard deduction 13 850 for 82300. If I mirror that in our Excel worksheet, I'm going to say the income went down to 99,000. We need an above the line deduction or adjustment to income, adjustment to income. And I'm just going to scroll down and say, let's pull this down. And I'll just put it right here. And we're going to call say it's a it's a contribution to HSA. And let's say we'll put the maxes over here. Max is going to be I believe it was just so we have that on our notes. The general max unless there's an an age limit and so on was 3850 7750 so 3000 3850 3850. And this is for so single FAM and 7770. Okay. And then we're going to say to do it, make this black and white. And I can't pull in the full amount there. Because there was an employer contribution. So I'm going to I'm going to have to data input it and say, okay. Oh, yeah, 1000 went in there by the employer 2008 50. So I'm going to say 2850 double clicking here. I'm going to add that last bit. Pull that into the first page of the form 1040 99,000 minus 2008 50 gets us to the 96150 96150 on the form 1040 96150. Okay, minus the 13850 gets us to the 82 300 82 300 page numero dose 13 419. So let's just say 13 419. Boom. Okay, so that's going to be that now.
