Recalls are a very high bar to actually meet. And the reason I think you saw so many Californians because there's a real sense of urgency, we want change now. There's a connection between what's going on in Sacramento and the rising cost of living. There's a connection between what's going on in Sacramento and the fact that people are leaving California for the first time. The recall can send a very clear warning to the rest of the nation, that California is not a model for the nation, it is a warning about the perils of a corrupt government. Those that think this thing is not close, I hate to dispute as you, it is. California Governor Gavin Newsom is in trouble and he knows it. Newsom who's facing a recall vote on September 14th told the editorial board of the Sacramento Bee that his fellow Democrats have been far too complacent about the risk that he faces and how damaging his loss would be to the national party. In Nancy Pelosi's state, in Kamala Harris' with California and the values we profess would be judged in a different light. If this was a successful recall, I think it would have profound consequences. Newsom's concerns are well-founded, according to recent polls. Because of COVID, the state has mailed every eligible California voter a ballot with two questions on it. Shall Gavin Newsom be recalled from the office of governor and which of these 46 candidates should replace him if that were to happen? If the recall succeeds, whichever candidate receives the plurality of votes will replace Newsom until the next governor's race in 2022. Newsom and his Democratic allies portrayed the election as a right-wing plot to take over California's government. Who's behind the partisan recall of Governor Gavin Newsom? Anti-vaccine Q and on extremists, violent white supremacists like the Proud Boys who attacked our nation's capital on January 6th and the same right-wing Republican politicians who supported Donald Trump's attempt to overturn the election. But what's actually animating recall voters are issues like rising homelessness, high housing and energy costs, fear of rising crime and COVID policies that have little basis in science like closing beaches, banning outdoor dining and keeping in-person public schools shut longer than any other state. The recall should be as big a wake-up call to the Democratic political establishment as the population exodus that recently caused California to lose a congressional seat for the first time in its history. Everyone loves you. Everyone is talking about how you've handled this. Early in the pandemic, Newsom was second only to New York Governor Andrew Cuomo in the adoration he received from celebrities and the media for his COVID response. One of the governors who acted earliest with regards to the coronavirus. You've been getting a lot of praise for shutting things down. The pandemic briefly turned Newsom into a national hero and he touted California as a global beacon. Absolutely, we see this as an opportunity to reshape the way we do business and how we govern. And as a model of progressive governance that he claimed would change American politics forever. What's the opportunity to your question for reimagining a more progressive era as it relates to capitalism? But as flattening the curve morphed into indefinite lockdowns. The schools should be closed. The schools will be closed. He says a return to life as normal in that state will not happen anytime soon. We are committed to a process. We've socialized that process and we are leaning in. And the case rates surged regardless. With California announcing a record 71 deaths in one day. Newsom acted as if for him the rules that were paralyzing the state's restaurant and nightlife scene didn't apply. Well, Governor Newsom is telling all of us to have Thanksgiving dinner outside. He's facing some new fallout for that fancy birthday dinner party he went to at the French Laundry. He's implemented rules that we would gladly follow but I don't think he's setting the best example. I think it's highly hypocritical of him. The petition to recall surpassed the required one and a half million signature mark in February 2021 and officially made the ballot in July. If Gavin Newsom were an employee in my corporation I would have fired him a long damn time ago. For Orrin Heatley, the retired Yolo County sheriff's sergeant who started the recall petition six months before COVID hit illegal immigration was a motivating factor. His open border policy giving our tax money to illegal immigrants for housing, food and clothing when our own citizens are on the street, our own veterans are homeless on the street. Newsom, in turn, has pointed to his role as evidence that the recall effort is a plot by right-wing extremists pointing to substantial funding from the California GOP and Mike Huckabee's PAC and highlighting in particular comments that Heatley posted to Facebook that called for microchipping illegal immigrants. People keep going back to this Facebook comments you made about tagging illegal immigrants like herd animal. Absolutely against mandatory chipping of anybody. Okay, that was a hyperbole, statement made in hyperbole to generate conversation. And yeah, it was not well worded and not the right thing to put out there. Heatley cites the more than 1.7 million verified signatures collected as evidence that conservatives like him aren't the only ones who support a recall vote. 49% of independence and of particular concern to California Democrats, half of Hispanic voters support the recall according to an August CBS YouGov poll. Newsom maintains that the recall is an anti-democratic maneuver. One group is suing preemptively to declare the outcome unconstitutional if Newsom loses to a candidate that gets fewer votes than he did in the general election. California's recall procedure dates to 1911 and it was championed by progressive era reformers who wanted to check the power of special interests like the Southern Pacific Railroad. 55 California governors have faced recall petitions to date and this is the second time that an effort to recall the governor has made the ballot. The first time was in 2003 when Arnold Schwarzenegger replaced Gray Davis. This has been in the California Constitution for 110 years. Frankly, you might even ask why the other 30 states don't have a recall mechanism like we do. People that are now complaining had a lot of time to change the Constitution if they felt it was so wrong. Where were they? We have heard I'm running for governor of California. Talk radio host Larry Elder is a self-identified libertarian running as a Republican. With his high name recognition and popularity among conservatives, Elder immediately became the front runner upon entering the race. Elder who has never worked in government says his years of analyzing California politics on the radio have prepared him for the job. My opponent, Gavin Newsom, has had plenty of political experience. He was two term elected mayor of San Francisco. He had eight years as lieutenant governor of the plan, what he was gonna do as governor. He's been governor for two years, look what we have. A gentleman came out of Hollywood who was not a talk show host, who has not spent 27 years talking about these issues. His name was Ronald Reagan. He became a pretty decent two-term governor and a pretty decent two-term president. Elder says his top priorities as governor would be reducing the cost of housing, second highest in the nation, by rescinding California's lengthy environmental review process, ending the state's rolling blackouts by halting the closure of the state's last nuclear facility and reauthorizing gas and oil drilling, ending worsening droughts by investing in desalination technology, increasing police funding to combat crime and more school choice. An issue that he says is particularly dear to his heart because of his experience growing up in South Central Los Angeles. I attended an inner city school called Crenshaw High School. That was a school that was featured in that movie Boys in the Hood. I just checked only 2% of kids from Crenshaw High School are math efficient. Now the polls showed the majority of black and brown parents living in the inner city one school choice. The teachers union, the most powerful union in this state, the largest funder of my opponent's campaign is adamantly opposed to choice. Netflix CEO Reed Hastings is actually the largest donor to the campaign to keep Newsom in office with a $3 million contribution. But Elder is right that the California Teachers Association is a major backer of Newsom with a $1.8 million donation. Over his decades long career, Elder has given his opponents plenty to attack him on. Such as his assertion in an article published in 2000 that women know less than men about political issues. Elder has also been criticized for his view that the minimum wage should be abolished because it cuts off opportunities for low skilled workers. Economists disagree about a lot of things, but the consensus about the damage done by the minimum wage is overwhelming. But my priority is not to do that, my priority is to deal with crime, to deal with homelessness, to deal with the outrageous cost of living and to follow the science going forward regarding how we're gonna navigate ourselves through this pandemic. An LA Times column labeled Elder the black face of white supremacy for the stance, as well as for his promise to repeal mask and vaccine mandates and for his rejection of critical race theory. And Newsom who didn't respond to reasons multiple interview requests says that Elder would be an anti-science disaster for California and has called him a climate change denier. What I am is a climate change alarmist denier. I don't believe as AOC says that our planet is gonna be destroyed in 12 years, whatever it was she said, if we don't make dramatic changes. I also believe that this force-feeding of our economy from a fossil-based one to a renewables-based one does not appreciate trade-offs. While Elder leads the polls among Republican challengers, San Diego Mayor Kevin Faulkner is the only candidate with executive governing experience, which helped him earn the grudging endorsement of the LA Times, which suggested in its editorial page that voters hold their noses and select Kevin Faulkner after saying the entire recall election would be comical if the stakes weren't so high. They basically said Kevin Faulkner is gonna be probably our least disastrous choice. What did you think of that endorsement? Well, I wasn't too surprised, but I mean, look, I think it just goes to show you. People know that this governor is in trouble. And even those folks that are different sides of the spectrum know it's time for new leadership. Faulkner touts his record on homelessness, which declined in San Diego after he spent $6.5 million on temporary shelter that had been earmarked for permanent housing. He also strictly enforced anti-camping laws. We took dramatic action in San Diego. I did not allow 10 encampments on the sidewalk. Why? Because if you allow 10 encampments on sidewalks, people are gonna die on our sidewalks and we're better than that. We set up a series of shelters in San Diego and I insisted that people use them. Faulkner's critics say his tactics were inhumane and that the decline in the city's unsheltered homeless may partially be an accounting anomaly because during his tenure, the count stopped including people living in RVs. Your critics have said that they changed the way that they counted and you kind of just pushed people out of the city into the greater San Diego county. What's your reply to those criticisms? Yeah, the facts are that homelessness actually went down in the city of San Diego and in the surrounding county. Again, it's a mechanism that works. And I took strong, strong action. And in fact, before COVID struck, we had 13 different cities from all across the country that came to look at the tough changes that we made in San Diego. Why? Because those changes worked. Like all the leading GOP candidates, Faulkner uses tough on crime rhetoric and he has accused Newsom of being overly sympathetic to the defund police movement. Don't ever confuse me with the defund police movement.  Polling shows that rising crime is a top concern among voters. Homicides and gun crimes did spike in LA in San Francisco in 2020, though overall crime rates were fairly steady in the state at large. We have a huge prison population in California and that was behind the effort to do criminal justice reform. How do you balance those concerns? I think what we're seeing is is that you have to have consequences for actions. And what's happened is in California those consequences have been taken away. Other leading GOP contenders are businessman John Cox and reality star Caitlin Jenner. Reason extended interview requests to all of the leading candidates and Cox and Jenner were among those who didn't respond to our emails. The highest polling Democrat in the race is 29 year old real estate investor and YouTuber Kevin Paphrath who's running as a liberal centrist. Why does California, the fifth largest economy in the world, struggle with crime, schooling, homelessness and can't even keep the power on or supply our farms with enough water? And then there's Kevin Kiley, a state legislator and the only candidate currently holding elected office. He wrote a book making the case for recalling Newsom that focuses on allegations of corruption and competence and disregard for the rule of law. As I've been fighting in everywhere I can against Gavin Newsom's one man rule. Kiley sued the governor for using his emergency powers to change California voting law and circumventing the state legislature though lost on appeal. Newsom had issued 58 executive orders over the course of the pandemic at that time drawing pushback even from some fellow Democrats. The LAO has a couple quotes that I thought really summarized our feelings quite well. We are very troubled by the degree of authority that the administration is requesting that the legislature delegate. Kiley says Newsom exploited the pandemic to amplify his own power and boost his national political profile while ignoring the science of how COVID actually spreads. I turned to the recall really as a last recourse for what was an extraordinary abuse of the public trust where he took extraordinary emergency powers and abused them for personal political gain. What he's done is he's taken all of the problems that were already there with our state government and has put them on steroids. I mean, he's taken California's long-term decline and brought it to this total free fall. And so I think that by throwing him out in a popular citizen's movement, it's a chance to actually turn the page on this whole era of corruption and failure. People want our schools open. They want our economy to get back on track. They want to reduce homelessness. They want to see crime go down. All of these factors I think are what you're seeing and why this recall qualified. There's one point Newsom and his challengers agree on. If he's recalled on September 14th, it'll mean dramatic changes are coming, not only to America's largest state, but to the nation at large. You can eliminate the masking requirement for public schools. You can eliminate the vaccine requirements for public health care workers. So many of the things that I signed through executive order can be done overnight. And also you have the bully pulpit of the fifth largest economy in the world. Consequences are pretty extraordinary. Newsom has said that, you know, there are profound national implications and I would have to agree with him on that because he's tried to suggest that California is somehow a model for the Biden administration. He even wrote this delusional letter to Joe Biden on the day of his inauguration saying California is the roadmap to success for his administration. And so I think that the recall can send a very clear warning to the rest of the nation that California is not a model for the nation. It is a warning about the perils of a corrupt government. What happens when you have a government that doesn't actually serve the people of the state? We're in this moment right now where we've had unprecedented government control. In California, it's been the worst, but it's been true in many parts of the country. Citizens have had their freedoms, their liberties restricted. So I think it's really, really important right now in this moment that we actually get the pendulum swinging back the other way, that we turn the page on this dark era of government control by lighting a new spark of liberty and self-government. And I think that if California, the state where it was the worst, responds by recalling its governor through a citizen's movement, then that can truly sweep across the rest of the country.


Namaste, good morning, good afternoon, good evening, wherever you may be across the planet around the world. Happy Monday. Monday evening here on the east coast of the United States. So it's coming out a little late. It's about 9.45 Eastern time. So on the Pacific coast, it's only like 6.45. So it's getting to be about prime time for you guys. But in the UK, that makes it around 2.45 going on 3 AM. So if anyone is up in the UK or anywhere nearby, actually, Ally's up, but she has clients tonight. And there's probably a good chance that Vera's up. So, you know, we have a couple of people. My wife, Ally, she works on east coast time. It's as if her body already knew that her and I would be together in the best times, optimal times for us to communicate with each other is her being on east coast time. I just, I can't explain it, but yeah, that's the way it is. So how is everyone doing tonight? Hi, Debbie Hempelay, first one checking in. How are you doing? So, yeah, I got a few things I'll be covering tonight. Man, I hope everyone is staying cool. Although I did notice the heat wave in the northeast broke and they actually have beautiful weather up there, upper 70s, upper 70s lower humidity. But today, I did notice that they had at least in upstate New York, they had a severe weather warning. So, I hope everyone is staying safe. A front is pushing through. And it's going to be dropping the temperature significantly. I often look at what the weather is like there because that's where I'm from. And I still have friends and family there. My daughter's up there. So, last night about, I don't know, 1.30, 2.30 a.m., my phone rings and it only rang once.  So, I look at it and it was my daughter.  By the time I answered it, there was nothing there. It only rang once. So, I just texted her, I love you. So, we've all done that. We've all butt dialed somebody. So, if you're going to butt dial somebody, make it family because they'll understand and they won't be upset at you, right? Hi to Sarah, Sarah Sutra joining us on Facebook. Debbie says she's doing well. Stormy weather here in Pennsylvania. Tornado watch, yeah, yeah. That's what I understand that that front's going through. And, you know, there's some pretty nasty weather associated with it when you had all that heat and humidity and a cold front, nasty things are going to happen, right? So, stay safe. Hope you're doing fine. Yeah. So, yeah, this is a lot later than what I normally come on. Except on Tuesdays, actually, Ally and I, we do our global predictions at 10 p.m. So, people are kind of accustomed to us coming on later. Of course, we do our show beforehand, Greg and Ally Live at 8 p.m. Eastern. And then, of course, we have our show on Thursdays where we do half an hour here on Facebook and YouTube. And then we do the rest of the show on Rumble Live and Uncensored. So, it's kind of nice to go there and not have to tippy-toe around certain things like I'll probably have to do tonight with some of the things I'll be talking about. Kind of do that tippy-toe. So, yeah, hi. Corolla, Corolla Worth. Hello, how are you? I'm doing great. Thank you for asking. How are you doing? Drop into the 70s. Yeah, it's going to be beautiful up there. No tornadoes here in Maryland, although they predicted some. Yeah, stay safe. Yeah, I'll tell you what. I live here in Florida. We had a hurricane come through. What was it, last year, year before? Last year. And I've been through several hurricanes since I've been in Florida. But what scares me the most, much more than a hurricane, you got it, tornadoes. They just, they can come out of nowhere. Hurricanes kind of move slow. You see them coming. You got time to react. Maybe, you know, take care of the things that you have to take care in your house and then move elsewhere away from it. But tornadoes, they can pop up overnight in the middle of the night and you don't have any time to really prepare. So, and they are so destructive, especially, you know, I live in a mobile home, a trailer park. And if you've never seen one, you've seen the destruction of what tornadoes do to trailer parks and mobile homes. Why? Because all the mobile homes are up on cinder blocks. The wind gets underneath it and just lifts them up and, you know, you're off to Kansas with Toto. So, hello from Queensland. So, good morning to Karola. Good morning to you. That's what, you know, that's one of the reasons why when I, when I come on, I go good morning, good afternoon and good evening because you never know where we have people coming in from. So, it is good morning to you. Ms. Rob, how are you? Ain't this something just happened? Log on and here you are. And here you are. What a coincidence. Thanks for joining us, Rob. Hi to Love Sunny Always. Hi, how are you? Joining us on Facebook. Some new names here. Checking in and saying hi. I love seeing the new names. Love seeing the old names. Patricia's tiptoeing through the tulips. But, you know, you gotta be a certain age to understand that. That's a tiny Tim song. He used to play a ukulele. And he would sing that. And it was just kind of bizarre, but for the time that he did that and it came out, you know, in the 60s or whatever, you know, people were partaking on various substances and it was cool to them, right? There's my baby. Hi, my love. I love you. Must be in between people, clients.  So I know what they're like. Yeah. When I used to live on the beach, a tornado came by before I moved on to the beach. It was shortly before I moved on to the beach. And this is years back. But it cut through in between the crystal sands, condos and whatever's next to them. But it's radius was large enough where there was this palm tree outside of my home where I lived. And it tore apart an outdoor chair. And one of the legs of the chair pierced right through a palm tree, right through it. You can see it on one end on the outside and going right through on the other side. It's amazing how fast must the wind be blowing for it to tear that chair apart and then use part of the leg as a projectile to go right through the tree. It's crazy. You don't wanna be near a tornado. Hurricane, no big deal as far as I'm concerned. And I'm sure, I try to give them a lot of respect but I've been through several hurricanes here beginning with Charlie back in what 2004 and all the other ones ever since. But her tornadoes, wow, yeah, they're kinda tough. And I don't wanna, I wouldn't wanna be anywhere near one. Stay safe, Patricia. We're getting pounded here. Coastal North Myrtle Beach, that's South Carolina. Love says I live in tornado territory. Alberta, Canada, scary stuff. Yeah, indeed. Hi, Jay. How are you? Thank you for joining. Lots of new names, Dignit. Debbie says hi, Allie. Hi, the kind spear, another one of our regulars. My internet is out due to a lightning strike yesterday so watching videos is virtually impossible on Boost Mobile. It's too choppy. I will watch on replay much love.  Yeah, Rob says I first saw a tiny Tim on the Johnny Carson's show. I laughed and laughed. Probably like, what the hell? Hi, baby. I saw one time one of the most amazing things I've ever seen, one of the most amazing performances that I've ever seen on the Johnny Carson's show. There was this guy, a guitarist. He had no arms. They lay the guitar down on the floor and he's playing it with his feet. What did he play? Stairway to heaven with his feet. Better than most people can play with their hands. It's just amazing if you put your mind to something that things you can do. I wish and I've looked online. I wish I could find that clip to share with you because it's so unbelievable. You don't have to be a musician to appreciate watching. Somebody play their Stairway to Heaven with their feet better than most people can play with their hands. Crazy, huh? You know, it's funny, I see the comments back to back. There's Ali and there's Vera. Good morning, everyone. You guys came in a little later, but I had spoken about you guys earlier when I first came on. The good morning, good afternoon, good evening because it's early morning over there in the UK and the Netherlands. So I was mentioning you guys how you never know who's coming on and what time. So that's why I always say good morning, good afternoon, good evening because who knows what time zone people are in and yeah, we have family all around the world. So hi to Magical Maiden. Thank you for joining us here on YouTube, okay. Now, I was talking to Ali and she came up with a good idea because I had a situation where I was trying to make a black and pink shirt but the black that I was using was a different black than I was normally using for my tie-dye and it came out like gray with a black outline around it. And I thought, whoa, this is really cool. So I'm still able to use that particular black although it's kind of grayish black but the way it comes out like that with the outline around that is so friggin' cool. Haven't came up with a name for this one but I was talking to Ali and what I have this one shirt, it's called Quantum Earth, which would be this one. This one's called the Quantum Earth, right? And I had to remake this one because when I first made it, the last thing you do is put the black on one side and that's where you get these black lines going throughout it. So I put the black on but it was from that batch that was mostly gray and you never know what's going to happen sometimes because out of mistakes are born something new and what got born something new was a camo shirt. So we got like a camouflage looking tie-dye shirt. So that one's gonna be, I'll be putting that one out and probably next three weeks or so. So and that was Ali's suggestion. She's like, wow, that's really cool. It looks like camouflage. I'm like, yeah. And so thank you, my love for the suggestion and that's what we have. So good morning Joyce from Scotland, of course. Yes, cold and wet in West Scotland, Southwest Scotland when finally calmed. You guys, I feel, I know it's, if you could take some of our heat and we could take some of your cool, you know, in Scotland and Florida, you know, trade off a little, I think everybody would be happy, right? I've been a fan of N5D since 2011. You've been such a gift in my awakening process. Thank you for all you do. Thank you so much, love, Sonny always. Thank you for being part of our N5D family. Aw, I believe in you too, my love. I do. Hi to Cynthia. Thank you for joining us. Yeah, it's kind of like a odd time for me to come on. I just decided, why not? I figured Ali was going to be working all night, but here she is. I got a few things I do want to cover though. What else? Oh, I've recommended numerous times throughout the year. Since it came out, I've recommended on N5D in various chats and everything. There's a video and it's a conspiracy about what happened to Paul McCartney. A lot of people believe, myself included, that he died in a car accident in 1967 because when you look at the old Paul and the new fall, a lot of people call him fall, F-A-U-L, fake Paul. There's so many discrepancies. Eyes, the nose, the teeth, the ears, everything is completely different. The old Paul wasn't trained classically. He could not write compositions. The new Paul, fall can and he's very talented, very, very, much more talented than the old Paul. Anyway, there's a guy on YouTube and he goes by, I am a phony. And I'll put a link in the chat for his YouTube page because, well, link, okay. He put out a video in 2011, 2010, something like that. And of course, N5D has been around since 2009 and had a couple other websites before that, but, and I've been promoting this guy ever since. Guy's amazing. The video's incredible, but it's called The Winged Beetle and it talks about the whole conspiracy behind Paul McCartney. I was watching, there's another guy, Mike Williams, I believe his name is. He has a website and a YouTube channel. Oh, what is his channel called? Hang on, I was just watching it earlier today too because he put out some new videos recently and let me see if I can find that one. Oh, Sage of Quay, yeah. Mike Williams, Paul is dead channel. And he was talking today about how the fake Paul has a lazy eye that he only has one eye, well, he had one's a glass eye. And he went to a compelling argument about that. One of the things he was talking about in this video and I'll, here, hang on, I'll put a link to that up in the chat, you know, if you're into this kind of stuff, you know, subscribe to his channel as well. It's very fascinating. I got more to cover. I'm not just gonna be talking about the fake Paul. And actually we're going somewhere different from this point forward anyway, but if you're interested in learning more about the conspiracy behind what happened with the beetles and how they brought in these numerous different people, the characters, as Mike Williams calls them, different, different Paul McCartney characters. Yeah, check out I am a phonies channel, subscribe to that and check out the winged beetle on I am a phonies channel. And Sage of Quay, Mike Williams' channel as well. So you got the links there in the chat on both YouTube and Facebook. And I'm going somewhere with this, bear with me on this, because it's not about the conspiracy behind Paul McCartney. What I was doing though, I was watching the Sage of Quay and I was watching that, you know, he was talking about how Paul McCartney has a glass eye and a lazy eye. And there's a guy called Vivian Stanchill who a lot of people suspect was one of the Paul McCartney that replaced Paul after he died. And he also has that same glass eye. So people are trying to put one-on-one together. Now, Sage of Quay, Mike Williams was talking about Horus and Set. Set is the God of chaos and he would fight Horus every day. So sunrise, sunset. Sunset would be when set defeats Horus and then in the morning, when the sun rises, Horus defeats Set. It'd probably be a lot easier. Let me put this on. And I'm gonna play like a short excerpt from Zeitgeist. And this will give you a better idea of the whole set and Horus confrontation, okay? This is Horus. He is the sun god of Egypt of around 3000 BC. He is the sun anthropomorphized in his life as a series of allegorical myths involving the sun's movement in the sky. From the ancient hieroglyphics in Egypt, we know much about the soul of Messiah. For instance, Horus, being the sun or the light, had an enemy known as Set. And Set was the personification of the darkness for night. So, yeah, Set is known as the god of chaos. And if you look at like Freemasonry, it's based on Ordo ebkayo, order out of chaos. We're gonna get, remember that name though, Set, because we're gonna get into it. And this is where I'm heading. Check it out. And metaphorically speaking, every morning Horus would win the battle against Set while in the evening Set would conquer Horus and send him into the underworld. It is important to note that dark versus light or good versus evil is one of the most ubiquitous mythological dualities ever known and is still expressed on many levels to this day. Broadly speaking, the story of Horus is as follows. This is the part that made the most sense to me about religion ever. Check it out. Horus was born on December 25th of the Virgin Ices Mary. His birth was accompanied by a star in the east. Does this sound familiar? And upon his birth, he was adored by three kings. At the age of 12, he was a prodigal child teacher. So this is the same story that's been regurgitated at least eight or nine other times after him preceding Jesus. At the age of 30, he was baptized by a figure known as Anup and thus began his ministry. Horus had 12 disciples he traveled about with performing miracles such as healing the sick and walking on water. Horus was known by many gestural names such as the truth, the light, God's anointed son, the good shepherd, the Lamb of God and many others. After being betrayed by Typhon, Horus was crucified, buried for three days and thus resurrected. Sound familiar? These attributes of Horus, whether original or not, seemed to permeate many cultures of the world for many other gods are found to have the same general mythological structure. Yeah. Addis of Phrygia, born in the Virgin Nanna on December 25th, crucified, placed in a tomb and after three days was resurrected. Krishna of India, born of the Virgin Devaki with a star in the east signaling his coming. He performed miracles with his disciples and upon his death was resurrected. And we're seeing the same story over and over and over again. Dionyses of Greece, born of a virgin on December 25th, was a traveling teacher who performed miracles such as turning water into wine. He was referred to as the King of Kings, God's only begotten son, the Alpha Omega and many others and upon his death he was resurrected. Of course. Mithra. Now this one was the most recent incarnation of all the Jesus deities. So a lot of what was transferred from Mithra is now in Christianity. Phrygia, born of a virgin on December 25th, he had 12 disciples and performed miracles and upon his death was buried for three days and thus resurrected. He was also referred to as the truth, the light and many others. Interestingly, the sacred day of worship of Mithra was Sunday. Okay, so let's get back to where we're going with this though. So that's actually fascinating. So Rob, you're saying I need that link, which link? Do you want a link to the zeitgeist? That's all it is. Just look up zeitgeist. It's right in the beginning of zeitgeist. It's the first part is on religion. Love, sunny always. I've always found this fascinating history repeated over and over again. And isn't that true? Because it's like astrology and from what I understand I've interviewed Jordan Maxwell three times when he was still alive. He interviewed this guy who was going for his PhD in theology and was given full access to the Dead Sea Scrolls. And by the time he got done dissecting Dead Sea Scrolls, he became so disenchanted because he learned that religion is nothing but astrothiology. He ended up disavowing Christianity and became an alcoholic because he was so despondent after what he learned. So if you look at religion, if you look at the Bible it's really quite genius on how it was written. It was written in perfect astrothial, theological order. So you have the golden calf, which is the age of Taurus. You have the blowing on the ram's horn, which is the age of Aries. When Jesus fed the masses with two fish, right? That's the age of Pisces. And then when Jesus said, follow the man bearing the pitcher of water to that house that's where we're at right now, the age of Aquarius. So was the man that Jordan Maxwell interviewed that had the access to the Dead Sea Scrolls? Was he wrong by saying it's all astrothiology? I mean, look at the names in the Bible, John, Jacob, Joseph, Jesus, all the names that begin with the letter J. The letter J wasn't invented until the 1500s. And do you think, how many Johns and Jacobs do you think were in the Middle East? That's not a very Middle Eastern name. You would think it'd be something like Muhammad, not John. So there's a lot more that goes into this, but this is not where I'm going. I'm giving you the background to show you what's going on right now. And where we're going with this is it's called the Great Reset. We've all heard about that. This is what Klaus Schwab wrote a book about the Great Reset. What the hell's the Great Reset? All right, well, let's, I'm gonna play a clip from this woman, Chris Iverson. AG1 is so much more than a Great Reset. And she'll give us a little idea of what the hell's going on with the Great Reset. Let me queue that up. I had it queued and I lost its queue. Okay, here we go. All right, so this is Kim Iverson talking about the Great Reset. Here we go. So what is the Great Reset? The name even sounds conspiratorial, but believe it or not, it's a real thing. The Great Reset started off as the name of a meeting held by the World Economic Forum in the summer of 2020. The World Economic Forum began in the 70s. It's basically a club made up of world leaders, corporations and other wealthy elites who are all deciding what is in our best interest. We have no say about it. Every year they get together in Davos, Switzerland and pontificate about how to best manage the world and solve problems. This year, the meeting starts today. I love that word, pontificate. However, due to the pandemic like last year, the winter in-person Davos meeting has been postponed to summer and instead they'll be hosting the meetings this week online and the conference kicks off today with a special opening speech by China's Xi Jinping. Basically, think of it as a bunch of hoity-toities getting together in a bougie ski resort town to make connections, rub elbows, collaborate. Sometimes world leaders make some peace and prevent war, which is a good thing. Sometimes people will fundraise money for causes, which is also a good thing, but mostly it's a way for elites and world leaders to get together and scheme up new ways to march us towards a more globalized world. Screw that. So these people, and I'm being kind with my choice of words, but these people take their private jet planes, fly all over the world to meet in Davos, then tell us that we have to cut back on our consumption of everything, meat and cows and all this stuff because we're using up or we're creating too much CO2 but they can take their private jets and meet all over the world and they're such hypocrites and then they're deciding our best interests. Now, it's my understanding that it was approved recently to by, I'm not sure if it's the United Nations or WEF, one of those stinking globalist organizations, it was approved to start blocking the sun, blocking the sun. Astrology teaches us about the cycles of time. History repeats itself. As we saw earlier when I played that Zeitgeist clip, history repeats itself with all these different deities that were born on December 25th, to aversion mother, 12 disciples, resurrected after three days, so on and so forth. Same story of regurgitated over and over and over. Well, the same is true with weather. It goes in cycles. And if you look at ice core samples, right, drill into the ice, go down as far as, you're gonna find that there were peaks and valleys of many ice ages, it gets warmer, this is normal, but yet they think they're gonna be blocking the sun or putting little particles in front of it that deflect the sun's rays away from us. I'm gonna tie this all together. There was a reason why I played you and told you the story of Horus and Set. And then I played the video, and then I played the video, the Great Reset, Reset. If you're looking at cycles of time, back and forth, back and forth, right? Jumvalo Melchizedek says that in this great cycle of 25,000 years, half of it we're going through with the divine masculine. The other half is in the energy of the divine feminine. And it goes back and forth, just like Set and Horus. Well, we're at that end of the cycle where Set is about to die, but they're saying, no, Reset. His horse is coming in, he's bringing the light. They don't want the light. They don't live in the light. If you look at my article, I have an article on N5D and it's called Pyramid of Death, who really runs this world. I'll see if I, hang on, I'm gonna pull up that, the image for that. Reset explains a lot and it shows you, where are we at? This is where we're at, my friends. Okay, so here, let's throw this up on the screen. Okay, so, and this is from an article I wrote on, an article I wrote on and you can find it on N5D. So below the pyramid on the bottom here, you'll find corporations such as Monsanto, world leaders and politicians, people that normies would think would be toward the top of the pyramid. They don't even make the pyramid at the bottom. You'll find us, the 99% of the population. So who really runs this world?  So at the bottom, the bottom of the pyramid, you got secret societies. Why are they at the bottom? Well, we know about them. As secret as they say they are, we already know that, you know, for example, the Freemasons, they have their lodges and if you walk into one of their lodges, you'll see a Christian Bible there on their checkerboard floor. But as you make your way up through the masons, you find, it switches over from the Christian Bible to the Luciferian doctrine. And you can find copies of the Luciferian doctrine online. I have a copy of it on PDF. And actually there's a lot of fascinating stuff in there. They talk about eating healthy, how to open your third eye. You know, it sounds horrible, the Luciferian doctrine because you think, well, you know, we've heard a lot of bad things about Freemasons but the Luciferian doctrine isn't all that bad honestly. And I'm not a Freemason, although I know most of their prayer because of the fraternity I was in. You know, a lot of our prayer was from Freemasonry. So that's the bottom of the pyramid, secret societies. Like I said, why? Because we know about them. What's at the top of the pyramid, we don't know. Let's move up though. You have the Committee of 300, the Council of 13. United Nations, the Federal Reserve and other central banks. United Nations Banking Complex, the Council on Foreign Relations, CFR, the Business Advisory Council, the Bilderbergs. And we know about them too, right? And the Vatican, Roman Catholic Church. This is where things change because a lot of people think that, okay, well the Pope is the most powerful person in the world. No, he's not. Because there's still the black Pope that's above him that we never see or hear of.  Well, we have lower level malevolent extraterrestrials like Dracos and Reptilians.  We have higher level malevolent extraterrestrials like the Anunnaki. So they're above the Dracos and the Reptilians. But who's pulling their strings? Well, you got Archons and other invisible matter. And above that, somebody had to create the Archons, right? Above that, the highest level malevolent extraterrestrials who literally exist and feed off of fear, death, pain, suffering, misery, and sacrifices. They are the controllers of the Archons. So yeah, you can find that on N5D. It's called Pyramid of Death, who really runs the world. They know, all of the world leaders are in tune with astrology and they hire their own master astrologists. They all know what's coming. We win. Remember that one, I have an article on N5D that talks about how this guy gives, he's an insider that was blowing the whistle on basically what Project Looking Glass saw and what's happening and where we're at with Project Looking Glass. And he said that right now, we're at the end game. There's only so many moves left. Both sides know exactly what the other person has to do and what the outcome will be. We've already won. The light wins, we've already won, but that's why they're trying to push this great reset. Reset, set the God of chaos. That's why they're trying to block the sun. They don't want the light coming down. There's nothing they can do. Speaking of cycles, I mentioned that astrology teaches us about cycles, those who don't learn from the cycles of time and the cycles of history are doomed to repeat it. Here's a great example. I've talked about this ad nauseam on N5D because it's so true and it's Pluto and Capricorn. Pluto entered Capricorn in 2008. Remember when that happened? Was the banking collapse of 2008 and all the too big to fail slash jail banks got bailed out. But that wasn't a coincidence that it happened then. Pluto stays in Capricorn until the end of the year, until the beginning of next year, I think it's January 20th. The last time Pluto was in Capricorn was during both the French and American revolutions. And this is what I was talking about with the cycles of time, how they repeat themselves. What's been going on worldwide? Revolutions everywhere. This is not a coincidence. This is history repeating itself. So what happens when Pluto exits Capricorn? Well, we're already seeing what happens. We've already well surpassed that apex and we're heading into the home stretch. And what's happening is the truth vibration is rising and it's getting stronger and more powerful. No matter what they try, it's gonna boomerang back on them. My friends, the best is yet to come. There's a lot of good things. There's a reason why we're all here right now. And it's not to witness the great reset and it has nothing to do.  They want to affect what we think. Don't let that happen. We are so powerful. They know it and they're panicking because there's nothing they can do. And at this point, they're saying, screw it. Let's throw everything at them. Doesn't matter what they throw. You know, you can look at me as an analogy of what the hell's going on?  You know, heart attack, diverticulitis, clostomy, reverse clostomy, incisional hernia, incidental appendectomy, quadruple bypass, emergency gallstone, gallbladder removal. Still here, baby, still here.  We're bouncing back. And we're here for a greater, much greater reason. And we're gonna bring that light in. And we're, everybody, everyone that's watching. And if, you know, please share this with your friends and family on social networks everywhere. Like and subscribe if you haven't. But we're bringing that light in. And it doesn't matter what they do, the cabal, it doesn't matter what they do. We know they're panicking. And it doesn't matter what they do. The light always wins. You can't stop the light. They can try. They can do whatever they can to try to keep us down. It ain't gonna work. We are the light and we win in the end. So I'm gonna leave it off there. I wanna thank everybody for joining me here. I know it was kind of a long way around. You know, I had to get through a few things, but it's important to understand what they mean by the great reset. And now you understand the process. So I'll leave it off at that. Thank you everyone for watching. If you're watching this on the recorded version, please leave your comments below. As I mentioned, please like, share and subscribe. And LA and I will be back tomorrow night. So at 8 p.m. Eastern, well, depends on when you're watching this. LA and I will be on Tuesday nights, 8 p.m. Eastern, or our live show. And then at 10 p.m., we do global predictions. Then on Thursday, every Thursday, we do our pregame show here on Facebook and YouTube for our live and uncensored show at 8 p.m. on Rumble, where we talk about anything and everything. Except we're not gonna swear anymore because there might be children watching and we don't want to cross that line. So anyway, until the next time, I'm Greg from inf5d.com and inf5d.net. Make sure you check out inf5d.net. Lots of cool t-shirts there. And I'm sending you all infinite love and light from my heart to yours. Namaste and I love you all. Take care now.


Bandits have adopted the district head of Abqa, Adabqa in Bukuyum government area of Zamfara, Al-Hajj, Nafiyu, Shehu. The attackers on the cycles in the middle of the night on Saturday took the chief and some of his house helps. I witnessed this saying nobody was killed or attacked on the way to the palace, indicating the bandits came for the chief. The incident comes a week after the police mobile officers attached to the area were withdrawn.


Hello everyone, myself, Mrs. Mayuri Kangre, assistant professor of mathematics from the Department of Humanities and Sciences, Valchian Institute of Technology, Soulapur. Today we are going to see higher-order linear differential equations. The learning outcome is at the end of this session, the students will be able to solve the examples of higher-order linear differential equations. Let f of d of y equal to x be given higher-order linear differential equation. Its general solution is given as y equals to cf plus pi that is yc plus yp, where cf or yc is the complementary function and pi or yp is the particular integral. In the previous videos, we have seen the shortcut method to find the particular integral, where the capital X is sin x or cos x. If the capital X is sin x or cos x, we have seen that to find the yp, we will rewrite it as 1 upon f of d into sin x or cos x, where this f of d will be rearranged so that it will be in terms of f of d square. Suppose you write this yp as 1 upon f of d square into sin x or cos x, replace d square by minus of a square, where a is the coefficient of x in sin x or cos x. While substituting, do not take the minus a bracket square, it should be minus of a square. Therefore, we get the yp as 1 upon f of minus of a square into sin x or cos x, provided that this denominator should be non-zero. Then we have seen that if the denominator is equal to 0, we multiply by x and take the derivative of f of d and repeat the same procedure which gives us yp equal to x into 1 upon f dash of minus of a square into sin x or cos x, provided again the denominator is non-zero. And if this denominator is 0, repeat the same procedure till you get the non-zero denominator. Now, before we start the examples, please pause the video for a minute and give the answer of this example. Solve d2y by dx square plus y equal to 0. I hope all of you have solved the example. Please check the answer. Here the equation is d square plus 1 bracket closed y equal to 0. Therefore, f of d is d square plus 1 and the auxiliary equation is d square plus 1 equal to 0, which gives us d equals to plus or minus i, which is a complex and distinct root. This plus or minus i can be written as 0 plus or minus 1 i. Therefore, the complementary function is nothing but the solution can be written as e raise to 0x into C1 cos x plus C2 sin x. Therefore, the solution y is C1 cos x plus C2 sin x. Now, let us solve the examples. Solve d square plus d plus 1 bracket closed y equal to sin square x. The given equation is of this form, which gives us f of d as d square plus d plus 1 and capital X as sin square x. First of all, we will find out the complementary function. So, the auxiliary equation is d square plus d plus 1 equal to 0. Solve this equation d equal to minus 1 plus or minus i into root 3 upon 2. The roots are complex and distinct and can be written as minus 1 by 2 plus or minus i into root 3 by 2. Therefore, yc equals to e raise to minus 1 by 2x into the bracket C1 cos root 3 by 2 into x plus C2 sin root 3 by 2x. We will call it as equation number 1. Now, let us find out the particular integral yp. By definition, it is 1 upon f of d into x.  Now, we will shift this sin square to sin r cos form. So, we can write it as 1 upon d square plus d plus 1 into the bracket 1 minus cos 2x upon 2. This 1 by 2 is a constant can be taken outside the operator. Therefore, the yp will be 1 by 2 into the bracket 1 upon d square plus d plus 1 into 1 minus cos 2x.  Now, this 1 can be written as e raise to 0x. Therefore, yp will be equal to 1 by 2 into the bracket 1 upon d square plus d plus 1 into e raise to 0x minus 1 upon d square plus d plus 1 into cos 2x. Now, using the case of e raise to ax for the first term and using the case of cos ax for the second term. By the case of e raise to ax, we will replace d by a that is d by 0. And here by using the case of cos ax, we will replace d square by minus of a square. Here a is 2. Therefore, minus of a square will be minus 4. So, replace d square by minus 4. So, we can write yp equal to 1 by 2 into the bracket 1 upon 0 plus 0 plus 1 into e raise to 0x minus 1 upon minus 4 plus d plus 1 into cos 2x. Now, here 1 upon 1 into e raise to 0 is also 1. So, 1 upon 1 into 1 is 1. So, we get the next step as yp equal to 1 by 2 into the bracket 1 minus 1 upon d minus 3 into cos 2x. See here minus 4 plus 1 gives us minus 3. So, we get d minus 3 here. To apply the case of cos ax, the denominator should be in terms of d square. But it is free from d square. So, to bring the term of d square here, we will use the method of rationalization. Therefore, yp can be written as 1 by 2 into the bracket 1 minus 1 upon d minus 3 into d plus 3 upon d plus 3 into cos 2x. We can write the yp as 1 by 2 into the bracket 1 minus d plus 3 into cos 2x upon d square minus 9. Now, replace a d square by minus 4.  Now, d into cos 2x is the derivative of cos 2x which is minus sin 2x into 2 gives us minus 2 sin 2x plus 3 cos 2x as it is. And in the denominator minus 4 minus 9 gives us minus 13 with one more negative sign here gives us plus sign. So, yp will be equal to 1 by 2 into the bracket 1 plus minus 2 sin 2x plus 3 cos 2x upon 13. We will call it as equation number 2. Therefore, using equation 1 and 2, the solution of the given equation can be written as y equals to e raise to minus 1 by 2x into the bracket C 1 cos root 3 by 2x plus C 2 sin root 3 by 2 into x plus. Now, this 1 by 2 is multiplied to the bracket.  Now, let us solve the next example d square plus 1 bracket closed y equal to sin x into sin 2x. The given equation is of this form. Therefore, f of d is d square plus 1 and capital X is sin x into sin 2x. First of all, we will find out the complementary function. Therefore, the auxiliary equation is d square plus 1 equal to 0 which gives this d square equals to minus 1. Therefore, d equal to plus or minus i. The roots are complex and distinct and can be written as 0 plus or minus 1i. Therefore, the yc, the complementary function will be e raise to 0x into the bracket C 1 cos x plus C 2 sin x. Now, e raise to 0x is 1. Therefore, the yc will be equal to C 1 cos x plus C 2 sin x and we will call it as equation number 1. Now, let us go for the yp that is particular integral. It is equals to 1 upon d square plus 1 into sin x into sin 2x. Now, we will use the result sin a sin b equal to 1 by 2 cos of a minus b minus cos of a plus b. Therefore, the sin x into sin 2x will be equal to, now a is x and b is 2x. So, it will be equal to 1 by 2 into the bracket cos of x minus 2x minus cos of x plus 2x that is 1 by 2 into cos of minus x minus cos of 3x. Now, we know that the cos of minus theta is cos theta. Therefore, we can write the yp as 1 upon d square plus 1 into 1 by 2 cos x minus cos of 3x. This 1 by 2 is a constant in the multiplication form can be taken outside the operator. Therefore, we can write it as 1 by 2 into the bracket 1 upon d square plus 1 into cos x minus 1 upon d square plus 1 into cos 3x. Now, using the case of cos ax for the first term a is 1. So, d square is replaced by minus 1 and for the case of second term a is 3 here. Therefore, the d square will be replaced by minus 9.   Therefore, case fails. Here f of d is d square plus 1 gives us f dash of d as 2d.  Then upon d cos x will be integration of cos x or dx that is sin x. Therefore, yp will be equals to 1 by 2 into the bracket x by 2 sin x. Now, minus minus becomes plus 1 by 8 cos 3x which gives this yp as x by 4 into sin x plus 1 by 16 into cos 3x. We will call it as equation number 2. From 1 and 2, we can write the solution of the given equation as y equals to c 1 cos x plus c 2 sin x plus x upon 4 sin x plus 1 by 16 cos 3x. Thank you.


Thank you, Lod. How are you? Nice to meet you. Nice to meet you too. We're meeting for the first time. Yeah, let's sit. Good morning, Hyperledger Global Forum. It's wonderful to be here. This is my second Hyperledger event, my first global forum. I had the privilege of speaking in Montreal, Quebec, and Canada in 2018 at the Hyperledger Member Forum. Was anybody in Montreal in 2018? Awesome. Wonderful. It's nice to see you again. Hope we'll have the opportunity to meet. My name is Hilary Carter. I am the VP of Research at the Linux Foundation. And my role at the LF is to describe through data-driven insights the opportunities, the challenges, and the technologies that are being created across open-source project communities. We've done lots of work with Hyperledger, and we're here to create a public utility that is free, just like the open-source technologies themselves, widely available. And our reports are designed to help inform strategy and decision-making and to overcome barriers to understanding what's really taking place in open-source project communities. We want to dispel myths and misperceptions. We've had the privilege of doing a number of projects already with Hyperledger. My previous role was at an organization called the Blockchain Research Institute where I did a similar thing specific to blockchain technologies, describing which projects were operating along different industry verticals and converging with different technologies. So, enough about me. Elon, please, why don't you take a minute to introduce yourself. Tell us about your journey at LAT Chain. Thank you, Harry. Well, good morning, everyone. I'm coming here basically to find a way to talk with everybody of you to learn a little bit about your projects and also to communicate about what we have been doing in LAT Chain. LAT Chain is an initiative that was born in the end of 2018. And it's actually a result of some research that we were doing in the Inter-American Development Bank in how to develop use cases using blockchain technology. And we found out some challenges that especially governments and public sector, mostly institutional players were dealing back then to scale up their solutions. So, most of the challenges were related with regulation and how they can be in compliance with the regulation of those use cases. And basically our proposal with LAT Chain is to bring the technology a little bit closer to the regulation in a way that all the use cases that in paper right now many organizations have they can start deploying it or testing, running a pilot. And basically that's what we have been helping organizations so far in a way to create a community. So LAT Chain is moving in two directions. It's providing an infrastructure where basically it's based on hyperledger vessels so organizations can connect to the public permission and version and it's also an ecosystem. So we are basically a global alliance where we are inviting organizations to be part of and deploy the use cases and the diversity of this ecosystem is broad. We are talking about organizations developing solutions but also providing, for example, consultancy, legal assistance education and so on and so forth. So what we have been seeing is that and actually thanks to the Inter-American Development Foundation is that we have been trying to promote the use cases and educate organizations that they can now execute use cases that sometimes we're on paper or just ideas. Wow, I want to talk about the specific role in a minute of the Inter-American Development Bank which is fascinating unto itself but you started by describing how you were working with regulators. I am from Canada and our financial services sector has a challenge because different jurisdictions have different regulatory bodies. For example, securities in Canada are regulated at the provincial level. So the province of Ontario, province of Quebec, province of British Columbia and the blockchain innovators in Canada have to deal with three different regulatory bodies. It's much more streamlined in the United States. Inter-American Development Bank, LAC chain, you have all of these different countries across Latin America. What is the regulatory landscape like and how do you manage a diverse set of regulatory interests across national or even regional lines? We have been the work that Inter-American Development Bank does is not only help countries in developing solutions but it's actually helping to mature their legal framework let's say and as part of many other aspects that the IDV is helping countries. So in this case we do a lot of research. Some of those research are based on legal framework of each countries to identify what countries of maturity level they have in a way that they can adopt for example digital identity and what we have found in most commonly in all the countries is that the regulatory limitations are based on anonymity of the transactions and the relationship with cryptocurrency while they are executing a transaction. So the transaction fee basically so what we have been trying to do is like getting rid of all those noise to the conversation so in a way that we can focus only on the things that are legal compliance. For example right now there is a country that is a stock market regulator in one country of the Caribbean that is actually adopting one of these solutions to meet up the supervision to all the stock market so this way they are adding efficiency to the stock market but also reducing the cost for the players or the members of this stock market and this is just because one small thing and it's like the regulator found out that the transactions were not anonymous actually in latching we are doing two anonymous signatures for every transaction so every node is signing that transaction but also the user is also signing that transaction so for the regulator this is like music to the ears because it's actually the way that they need to support this kind of adventures. So is the takeaway then that in dealing with regulators start small focus on a particular issue, a particular use case as a means to help overcome those barriers to implementation. We have found that at the beginning on paper because many organizations have on their papers use cases that they want to pursue but they are dealing with this scale up challenges but we have found out that many organizations are willing to move forward as long as there are other players who are willing to move forward and the position of the IDP is actually that is like let's going to take a leadership role in the implementation of use cases and let's going to deal with the government that we work with to support use cases. One of those use cases is actually very it's very amazing which is Cadena and Cadena is a solution to integrate customs in so the challenge is that we are very large let's say continent with a lot of countries when talking about more than 20 countries including islands in the Caribbean and facilitating the exports and imports of those commercials agreements is actually challenging so we actually are doing a solution to integrate the information that is actually private but using the setup actually which is to enable private channels with using hyper ledger vessel and they are able to share information between customs so this is actually one example that we have been using to teach within the Latin America how they can scale up projects using blockchain and basically get rid of the noise that these technology can bring providing good examples of real use cases. I am tremendously excited about the opportunities to reduce border friction and you mentioned the role of leadership we had a pilot project in place that was using blockchain technology to reduce friction between trade friction between Canada and the United States and it was championed by leaders in government, leaders in enterprise and along the line unfortunately the project did not come to fruition that leaders got cold feet and the key players backed away and it is very frustrating because those of us who know that these are pure value plays unfortunately there is a negative association that is often associated with blockchain projects unfairly what is the you have been in a very fortunate position I think to have a multinational organization like the IADB being behind your project how important is that leadership equation to the success of black chain and the implementation of technology projects like hyper ledger that deliver real business and social and economic value is a totally new world when you have an organization like IADB supporting specifically the project and it is because of the reputation that this organization can bring to our projects actually many organizations startups or private sectors are willing to deploy their use cases just because they are tied to the inter-american development bank name just because of that that is bringing certainty and kind of reputational level to their own projects so this is actually very important let me share a little bit of the experience that I had we are constantly meeting with many of you having that situation too but we are constantly meeting with regulators or banks or institutions that are very well positioned in each of our countries probably and when we start a conversation about blockchain there is a lot of noise around that conversation if it is related to the merge, if it is related to kind of hacking if it is related to cybersecurity things and when we educate because I usually say that 70% of my conversation is kind of education and the 30% is just specifically talking about specific solutions it's like when we are educating why is this technology different or how we can see it and we bring to the conversation that Latching as a project has the inter-american development bank as a support or this is an initiative coming from the IDB the conversation is totally different and the atmosphere that you can feel in the room is totally different just because you have a well-reputation organization so this is actually the leadership of the organization and this is actually something that probably you have seen with the conversation in any areas is actually in that way we are in a very different position because this organization is actually pushing forward to move the technology and it's just because probably everybody here in the room knows about it is that the potential blockchain technology can bring to our countries so the focus of the inter-american development bank is to promote the development of the countries and we are seeing the blockchain technology as one of those technologies that can close those gaps gaps in inclusion, in education in financial system so that that's actually what we are looking in the inter-american development bank and it's very aligned to the technology so that's a motivation to promote it Wonderful We need more inter-american development bank type leadership across the different regions I would love to see that play out elsewhere you have listed a number of excellent use cases do you have a particular use case that is inspiring, that is developed and is adding immediate value that you would like to describe Yeah Well, there are many projects going on with different levels of maturity the project that I love most is actually we call it in Spanish Neonamas which is basically no more gears it's actually a solution to fight violence, intra-familiar violence and we are enabling on our phones or the phones of every person a panic kind of bottom where when you push that bottom basically the phone is recording everything that is happening location, what is the microphone the picture, everything is recording it and it's creating a notarized document of that on blockchain, particularly to give the legislation or the judge the opportunity to confirm that that event actually happened there is a very funny relationship between observer and the violence usually the violence occurs when nobody is watching but you feel that you are being under watch that is actually minimized so this is actually having into ways to prevent the violence occur but also to provide a tool to the people on the violence to basically have a tool to protect themselves so it's changing and that's what I love it because it's changing the, let's say of the proof of the violence it's not my word against yours it's actually something that is recording a moment in time, is this in a particular country or is it all across the blockchain ecosystem? Well it's actually happening in Colombia right now but we are through the inter-american development we are expanding that to cover all basically all Latin America and that's what I love it because it's actually very important to protect life and the other thing that maybe I would like to talk is about LACPAS LACPAS is an initiative that we started to develop with the World Health Organization specifically in Latin America which is the Pan American Health Organization to promote the vaccine certificates so in every country you have and probably you have seen with the COVID we have that vaccine certificate so if we want to ensure that those certifications are valid so we are developing with 11 countries a program where we are going to basically standardize the vaccine certification we're doing some similar things with educational diplomas and in some other Wow amazing I'm very inspired by the safety application I think from my perspective as a woman as a mother of a daughter one of the opportunities that I appreciate most of all in identity applications is when we have to show our ID to gain entrance to a facility of some kind whether it's a pub or a bar or wherever and in doing so I have to give over my name and address to a complete stranger and I think the extra layer of privacy is extremely important and we'll create a lot more trust I think our whole internet culture does not serve girls and young women and women at large and these are the kinds of solutions that inspire me and very much get me out of bed absolutely every day so awesome awesome let's talk a little bit about some of the friction and the obstacles that you've had to overcome I mean every day is not a picnic clearly so what lessons can you give this group about overcoming some of the really significant challenges that blockchain has faced yeah it's everything about education if we go to the bottom of all the fears let's say it's everything about education it's because most of the organization doesn't understand or at least in those organizations that are starting to understand groups are not understanding well what is the technology or how this kind of technology can work and for example we were working with some organization that is actually a regulator as well and the IT department had very clearly the solution how to what to implement in how this kind of solution going to fit but the legal organization the legal department didn't understand anything about it so it was a challenge an internal challenge that they were facing and we were kind of in the middle trying to educate on both sides because at some point even though they had a very clear understanding of the solution they were not clearly 100% of how the network might be might be working so everything is related with education and that's why I say like probably the 70% of our time has been like trying to educate to educate people and to teach how we can differentiate ourselves within a public permission because that is also a concept everything or many organizations are thinking that the information that putting in blockchains will be like visible to everybody and you are going to be publishing private information or a strategic information that shouldn't be there at the end of the day it's not there but it's some of the concepts that we need to like clarify when we have these conversations Ilan what tooling do you use to assist in your educational work do you host roundtables do you have one-on-one meetings do you use research what are the tools that you use that have brought you success in that education that's a very good question because the need of the location might come from different perspectives for example one of those perspectives is technical the maintenance here that are very well in terms of programming well that is actually a need that we need to close in terms of maturity but also what we have been doing is like bringing education platform one of the partners of LACNED maybe we can talk about LACNED in a few but one of the organizations that we are promoting within LACNED is an orchestration entity that is called LACNED LACNED and we are one of the partners of LACNED is actually RETLAG which is an entity that groups like 2020 100 universities across Latin America and the Caribbean and with them we are developing a program where we are talking about training that teachers of these 2200 universities to spread the knowledge of blockchain all across Latin America and the Caribbean so that's how we are getting started but we have already created materials that we are inviting organizations to participate now what is happening in reality is when we are having a conversation in a group session is that we usually bring different skill sets to the conversation for example one of our teammates is very well master in legislation and he is not a master in every legislation of each country very well so when we are going to talk with a regulator we usually go with him because if there is a question about regulation he might be that person who can answer well that kind of doubt we are doing the same thing with the technical level so we go to the sessions with a group of people that can basically collaborate in different aspects of the most commonly questions that the organization can have so stack your teams with diverse representatives who can understand the technology the legal frameworks the business opportunities and have the communicator one of my challenges in research is I often work with extremely technical people who really understand the tech but their ability to communicate and distill the opportunity that the technology creates is not always that easy so diverse teams, different skill sets that's a practical take away it was a theory of mine but it's nice to hear you say that that has brought success so let's talk about LaNet tell us about this particular network we were talking about how organizations can scale up their use cases and one of the challenges that we were facing with organizations I'm talking about institutional players or governments is that they need to sign a contract somebody who can ensure basically assure that the network is going to be available so who's going to play that role for organizations and LaNet is that organization LaNet basically orchestrates the Latching Network we say that Latching is kind of an ecosystem based on hyperlegia but it's called Latching so LaNet orchestrates the Latching Network and basically organizations can sign up a contract a service contract with LaNet to deploy their use cases on main environment so with this contract organizations and specifically when they go to the League of Review they can see that there is an entity that is support the infrastructure that is going to ensure the availability in the long term of the infrastructure the information is going to be there and basically that's the value proposition that we are providing through LaNet as well there are similarities with some other kind of IT products for example you can have a support team helping you in case you have problems with your note or any other connectivity issue but basically that's what we have been doing and some of the things that we have been learning and we are doing also through LaNet is that consultants in services we have been like exploring a large diversity of use cases from CDDCs to educational certificates let's say and for those use cases we have like successful proof of concepts or solutions already on production and what we have been seeing is organization that needs to close the gap of education that they tell can you teach us about what you have done in for example in CDDCs or how can I deploy my national blockchain services let's say so we do that service through LaNet as well so LaNet I'm going to summarize is essentially it's like a blockchain as a service yeah distributing nodes and can you give us a sense of cost can you come to Canada and help us out how can you go about that pricing I love because LaNet is a non-profit organization so we are going to talk about cost don't expect much to it probably your cable in your house is worth more than the subscription that you can have in LaNet which is around $170 per month so it's kind of ridiculous but yeah that's a business opportunity amazing let's dig into Basu specifically as architecture what was it about Hyperledger Basu that provided the kind of innovation that you were looking for couple things the first one is the concept that is behind that is very aligned to what we are looking in LaNet which is the open source we are very tied to open source everything that we have been doing is open source and having the support of Dino's foundation Hyperledger foundation is actually very aligned with what we are looking for and we have been trying to participate in the kind of events but also to expand our participation and integrate Firefly and some other functionality that we can take advantage of or put in to service to our governments so that's one of the things the other thing is actually the possibility to create a public permission network which is actually what we have been doing we found out that our model is actually deploy public permission we are agnostic to the technology however the best protocol that have fit to this vision is actually a public permission network and it's Hyperledger Basu and also there is another beautiful thing it's actually the developers community I don't know probably you have better numbers than mine but probably 80% of the developers are solidity developers this is actually very compatible with Hyperledger some of the things that we have been seeing is a lot of adoption using solidity as a protocol for smart contracts amazing we have one minute left Ilan I'd like to give you the opportunity to share final takeaway about what people in this room can do in their own communities, their own regions any final thoughts? yeah well one of the things that we believe is very important is try to create collaboration between organizations and specifically where we can add value between us we have been seeing like for example the use case that we had with BNDS which is the national bank of Brazil of development where we have been collaborating to deploy their network as well for Brazil and it has been a very good relationship and based on the collaboration in a way that we are expanding this we have been working with World Bank to deploy use cases across Latin America it has been very successful in a way that we can well we have a very aligned vision between organizations so that is something that facilitates the conversation but actually that is helping organizations to adapt where there is no multilateral or there is no multi-regional blockchain infrastructure so for example in this case we have been able to collaborate with Africa where it is possible so I believe that probably talk to each other see how we can collaborate what we can do together has been like an opportunity especially this time where we are basically growing and growing every day and we are discovering and still discovering what this technology can bring us Wonderful, keep managing those relationships keep collaborating it is an absolute pleasure Thank you so much Thank you very much everyone


My name is Billy Lee, Sergeant Cultural Advisory Officer attached to the Cultural Support Unit. My role is very unique, it's very special, and it's very diverse, and it's nothing like any other jobs in the Queensland Police Service. My role involves policy and programme development. Community engagement is a big thing for our office. We also provide operational support, language support, and cultural awareness training to our frontline police. We work in partnership with the multicultural communities in Queensland, and we also have a really good working relationship with our foreign embassies and consulate officials. I joined the QPS when I was 24. It wasn't a long process for me. From the time I lost the application was only about six months. I thoroughly enjoyed the academy life. It was hard work academically and also physically. I particularly enjoyed the driver training and the fire-run training. The most difficult thing for me at the academy was communications. I guess that form part of the cultural barrier is being assertive and giving orders to people that you don't know or that are more senior to you. On the weekends, I like doing dragon boating, going to the park with my daughter. Dragon boating is a great sport, not only about the individual strength, but it's about teamwork. We practice timing and also techniques. I like my job because it's never routine. We get to meet new people every day in different functions, different events. I get to travel across the states doing what I love to do. My advice, if you are thinking of joining the job, apply now, don't wait. It is not just a job, it is a career. It's a career that is very rewarding and there's opportunities for you to develop different paths in your career within the Queensland Police Service and get to travel across the states doing what you love to do.

And if you like some of the visuals in this video, you can check out In-Print to get yourself some prints that I've made inspired by this video. There's a simple joy in tiny rituals. The act of setting a kettle is a promise of common comfort made to oneself with the turn of a dial. The crisp striking of a match is a moment of careful thought, a single-minded dedication to the age-old quest for heat. And light. The tactile joy in these rituals can't be matched by the myriad strands of haptic feedback that now plague our daily life. For all the ease that digital technology offers us, it can seldom deliver the brief dramas of tension and catharsis that play out with each of these rituals. It's those sensations that make dropping a needle on a vinyl record such an electric experience. The old cardboard smell wafting when you open the sleeve, the physical weight of music in your hand, the thousand stories contained in each bump and deformity of your collection. Vinyl records are magic. At least they are to me. I first got into vinyl in the early 2010s when the medium was just starting to inch toward its modern renaissance. My older brother was a huge fan of Jack White and started to follow third-man records, White's independent label that debuted with the motto, your turntable's not dead. So one summer our dad took his old turntable out of storage and set it up. I spent the next few months digging through old milk crates and sitting transfixed in front of speakers. I spun zeppelin loud enough to kickstart my tinnitus. I shut all the lights off and felt my heartbeat falling in sync with dark side of the moon. I blasted my dad's half-speed master of born-to-run and felt my soul escaping my body as Clarence Clemens wailed out the climax of Jungleland. The sheer quality and power of the sound floored me. The crisp and full middles and rich dynamic depth were like nothing I had ever heard before. In those days so much of the discourse around vinyl centered on the question of audio fidelity. As the argument went, the audio quality of vinyl records was far superior to that of digital files, which had to be compressed for size. And that's kind of true sometimes? The realities of audio fidelity are deeply complicated. As an artifact, a vinyl record does indeed contain more audio data than an MP3 and should give a higher fidelity sound. But that's also assuming that the record is in decent condition and that you've got a good needle to play it with, not to mention the many other things that can go wrong in a stereo system. But if you have a half decent setup and you're listening to something recorded in an analog studio, a vinyl record is about as good as you'll get short of playing the original master tapes. The only thing is that most vinyl releases these days are mastered digitally and then pressed to vinyl, which means that a lossless digital file is just as good. Unless, of course, you're playing that file through the fidelity bottleneck of Bluetooth. There's no simple answer to audio fidelity, and what floored me so much about spinning my dad's records was probably more of a reaction to the fact that I was used to listening to Pink Floyd through crappy $5 headphones. Fidelity is a great feature of vinyl records, but these days it's not even my main reason for spinning records. The joy of listening to vinyl stretches so much deeper than that. Almost all the music I listened to was either explicitly designed with vinyl records in mind, or was deeply influenced by something that was. That means the technical limitations of vinyl as a medium are baked into the very essence of what modern pop music is. In my opinion, almost all the best albums, whether created in the vinyl era or not, have a runtime of a little over 40 minutes. That number was originally created by the limits of how much sound could fit on a single vinyl record. These days there are no limitations to what an album really can be, but as Orson Welles said, the absence of limitations is the enemy of art. That 40 minute window forces artists to be cut through with their music and make tough decisions about what gets left on the floor. The result is leaner albums that center around singular themes or aesthetics, rather than sprawling outward endlessly. Of course, you can always stream these tight 40 minute albums and enjoy their mastery, but digital listening brushes over one essential aspect of an album's sequencing, the flip. Vinyl records at their best are sequenced as two chapters, each defined by a side that has its own rhythms and flows. You've got bringing it all back home's electric and acoustic divide, the side-spanning magnificence of Close to the Edge, or Abby Rhodes' legendary second side medley. When a record side ends, it forces you to sit with the music for a moment, to let the last notes linger as long as you want before diving into the second side. When you listen to Abby Rhodes without a flip, the apocalyptic tension of I Want You runs headfirst into the utopian optimism of Here Comes the Sun, without even giving you a moment to breathe. On vinyl, Fleetwood Max Rumors leaves side one with the ethereal beauty of Songbird. You've got a moment of calm and reflection before you flip and find yourself mired in the rage and tension of the chain. And there are a few flips that I've ever heard that are as powerful as dropping the needle on side two of Inner Visions, enjoying a moment of crackle and then getting hit face-first with the grooviest funk you've ever heard on higher ground. The limitations of vinyl force you to interact with the music in a richer way. As a medium, vinyl demands your attention. It encourages you to take note of the careful sequencing of songs. Listening to a record is an involved, active process. That interactive process is augmented by the sleeve. If you've watched my channel for a while now, you've probably noticed my deep and lasting love for the canvas that is Album Art. Ever since the brilliant designs of Reed Miles at Blue Note Records, album artwork has been an essential part of the music experience. It turns an album into a multimedia object, bringing artists together from different disciplines to create something that helps frame the album's themes and mood. Something that tells a story or something that gives you a window into the mind of the artist. Of course, you can always find album artwork online, but really, the experience of looking at J-Pag's just doesn't come close. Not only is the packaging of a vinyl bigger and easier to look at, there's just so much more of it. There's credits that tell you who's playing. Often there's lyrics to read along. Liner notes will give color and sometimes even narrative, and inserts can help make the record more interactive. One of my more frequent talking points lately is the way that so many digital covers fail to capture the depth of a record package. I've made entire videos on the packaging of albums like Thick as a Brick and Close to the Edge, and it's probably only a matter of time until I do something about all the riches contained in the designs of Andy Warhol or Hypnosis. Hell, even if you don't have a turntable to listen to, records are just incredibly interesting objects to own. You can personalize your covers, you can hang them on the wall as art, and there is of course an enormous collectors market around vinyl records. As far as record collectors go, I'm more on the casual end, but I still love the thrill of the hunt that comes every time you go out to expand your record collection. I will regularly walk into my local record store looking for one album that I really want and walk out with three records that I didn't even know I wanted. The content algorithms that drive our music listening today can't really capture the experience of buying a record just because you like the cover, or of pulling out a rare copy of a favorite record to show off when your friends are over. And labels like Third Man are incredible at further incentivizing this with novel approaches to record interaction.  That Lazaretto record was the first birthday present that my now wife ever gave to me. Every time that I break it out, it makes me think of those early days falling in love. So much of our record collection is full of stories like that. We've got plenty of records we've given each other, records we've inherited from family members, gifts given by friends. We've got records bought as keepsakes from shows and records that are paired with odd origin stories of discovery and garage sales and thrift shops. Each and every record has a life of its own, a unique story told in every hand that it has passed through. This is, of course, where I have to bring up one of my favorite art projects ever, We Buy White Albums. That collection of different copies of The Beatles' White Album shows off the myriad stories that a record sleeve can tell. These stories are made possible because physical media allows for ownership. Across all forms of media, the modern age has seen a worrying march away from the ownership of physical items. Everything has become a subscription service. And while it's fantastic to be able to listen to any song at the click of a button, that freedom could go away at any moment. And that freedom comes at the cost of genuinely supporting the artists that you love. Recording artists make fractions of a cent on each stream to play, with most of your money going to a middleman who is renting music out to you. And this model is completely collapsing creative industries. These days, musicians are forced to go on grueling tour schedules if they want any hope at making money off their music. That is, if they can even make money at all.  Of all the joys that my vinyl habit has delivered me, the richest has been simple. It's given me a unique way to share music with the people that I love. From the earliest days digging through my parents' collection to a romance told through traded records, all the way to the very night that I'm writing this video, when a good friend brought over some records as a birthday present, records have always been tied to people for me. They're the best way of experiencing the magic of music with others. I've spent many a late night reading liner notes out loud with good friends, spinning disc after disc as we talked into the wee hours of the morning. When you ask a friend to look through your record collection and pick something to put on, you're participating in a vulnerable exercise of connection and consensus. Looking through someone's collection is looking through a part of them. And when you choose what to put on from another person's collection, you've created a silent pact together in a way that is so much richer than passing an ox cable back and forth. It's a ritual that you undertake with anyone else in the room. The ceremonial dig through the shelf, the drama of the unveil, the tension as you drop the disc on the plate, and the profound release when that needle comes down. If it seems like I'm romanticizing a little bit, I probably am, but that's only because records are a deeply romantic kind of media. They are physical manifestations of the metaphysical experience that is music. Each stands as its own unique object, bearing irregularities just like its owner. As we find ourselves adrift in a sea of streaming content and choice paralysis, records can be a tether to shore. Sure, you won't always be able to find the perfect song at the perfect moment, but often you'll find yourself richer for having to search. The other night I had my sister and her kids over for dinner. My nephew has been really getting into music, discovering the same joy that I found in my adolescence, the same thirst to discover more music and to understand its stories and meanings. At one point in the evening, I turned on the turntable, pulled out my copy of Enduro, and put it on to spin. What I saw in my nephew's eyes was the same thing that I felt all those years ago when my dad first set up a turntable for me. My nephew is just one in a new generation that are coming of age with all the music in the world at their hands, but are thirsty for something more tangible. Once on the brink of extinction, records are rising from the ashes and returning to mainstream culture in ways that nobody could have predicted. In 2022, the Recording Industry Association of America reported that vinyl records sold more units than CDs. It was the first time that had happened since 1987. We are living in the vinyl renaissance, and if you're curious about it, there's never been a better time to jump in. I don't think records should be the only way you listen to music. They're certainly not the only way that I listen to music. And I don't think you have to get into records to enjoy music if you don't want to, but if it's something that you're curious about, now is the perfect time to try it out. And honestly, the more time you spend with records, the deeper your love will grow. Or at least, that's how it went for me. I've listened to music in a lot of ways over the years, but to this day, vinyl records just can't beat. A big part of the joy of vinyl records is that they harken back to a simpler time, but you're not going to get very far in the modern age, living entirely in the past.
