All right. Welcome back everyone. This is our second lecture on the book of Romans. I have just started the recording. So we will get started. I know we took a little extra time from our break at the previous class. So people are still returning. That's fine. Okay, good. So we are now going to, we've gone through the introduction earlier. Since anybody wants to ask, we will start off with chapter one. Any other questions? And I've given her a question. Conan, any question? Sharon, any questions? Okay. All right. So we're going to go into chapter one. Now, what we're going to do is, you know, we're going to go through this verse by verse. So what we'll do is we'll read certain portions of scripture, then look at, you know, verse by verse. I would, you know, we won't like read the whole chapter at one go, but we will read portions of the chapter and then, you know, just look at verses, you know, individually and then built like that. Right. So let's read verse Romans chapter one versus one to six. Romans one, one to six. The first six verses, we're going to read that. And I would just request people to read maybe this eight. Anyone can read two verses eight for the stick turns. Romans chapter one versus one to six. And then we'll look at those verses. Romans one, one to six. Paul, a servant of Jesus Christ. Paul to be an apostle, separated unto the gospel of God, which he had promised of four by his prophets in the Holy Spirit. Consuming his son, Jesus Christ our Lord, which was made of the seed of David according to the flesh and declared to be the son of God with power according to the spirit of holiness by the resurrection from the devil. By whom we have received grace and apostleship for obedience of the faith among all nations for his name, among whom are he also the Paul of Jesus Christ. Okay. Thank you. Thank you. So let's look at it worse by worse and we will comment on, you know, highlights certain things here. So Paul, it's very interesting. So this is like the salutation, the introduction part of the greeting part of this letter. So every letter would be, you know, dear son, so trust your doing well.  So this is Paul's introduction. And he kind of continues on a little bit more. So notice how Paul refers to his own self. Now, remember many of these people in Rome have not seen Paul in person. A few of them, like Aquila Priscilla, maybe a few may have seen him, but most of them have not. They only heard of them. Now Paul is saying he's a bond servant of Jesus Christ. That word bond servant there is very, very important. He's borrowing from, again, like we had mentioned earlier, he's borrowing from the Old Testament, a bond servant. Now, what do we know about a bond servant, you know, from the Old Testament Hebrew context.  They don't have finances.  Now, typically what will happen is every seven years or even during the year of Jubilee, the 50th year, these servants had to be let free. They had to go. You're free to go. But if somebody chooses to stay as a servant for them with their master, that means they say, you know, I like my master so much. He's a good man. He's treating me well. My life is taken care of. My family is taken care of. So I'm fine with this. And I'm willing to, I am willing to continue, even though, you know, I have the choice of walking away. I'm willing to stay here and be a servant. So he willingly submits, he willingly subjects himself to the master. He becomes a bond servant. That means he has made the choice to be a servant. It is to stay a servant for this master. And, you know, one of the signs that they would do is they would put a ring on the ear as an indication that this person is a bond servant. He's chosen to give himself up like that possibly for the rest of his life. Right. Yeah. So Siddharth has asked a question. Does it mean to be a slave? Yeah. In their context, yes.  But that's what it was. They were a slave to their master.  We don't use that today. But that was what the context was. And that was who they were. They were slaves. And they were bond servants. So really, the bond servant was a slave. But he was, he made the choice to submit the rest of his life or however long he had to his master. And he chose to take the mark of a bond servant on his life as an indication of people that he is a bond servant. Okay. So Paul is saying, he says, I'm a bond servant of Jesus Christ. So is that something to really think about? You know, and we could reflect on it for our own lives, that this is, you know, an example to follow. A bond servant of Jesus Christ. But then he says, so bond servant is something I choose to do. But then there is something else that God gave. What does he say? I was called to be an apostle. So this is not something I chose. I didn't choose to be an apostle. I chose to be a servant. But God called me to be an apostle. And we all know the meaning of the word apostle is to be a sent one. Right. That means he is sending me to represent him. He is sending me to represent his kingdom. An apostle is a sent to one, somebody who's sent by the king, somebody sent by the government, somebody sent by a higher authority in order to carry out a purpose. So he says, I chose to be a bond servant. I was called to be an apostle, to be a sent one. And of course, in the New Testament context, the apostle has other functions and responsibilities. And he says, very important, separated to the gospel of God. So in Paul's writings, you'll find these three words very important to Paul's writings. Bond servant, being called and being separated. So Paul really saw himself as somebody who was separated, set aside for the gospel of God. Now that word separated, we have to understand in Paul's context, because for Paul, being separated was a very big thing. So what do you mean?  He had, he says, I was a, this is in Philippians chapter three, he writes, he says, I was a Pharisee of Pharisees. I mean, I was like the most eminent student, the most eminent Pharisee, upcoming Pharisee was a Pharisee. So his whole life was in that, his identity was in that. And yet he gave up all of that and came out of it in order to proclaim a different message. So for him, it was a big thing. And when we read Philippians three, he says, you know, whatever was gained to me, I counted it, but you lost. And I count them everything as rubbish. For one reason, that I'm again Christ. Right. So this word separated in Paul's mind, and you find it in his other episodes, it's a very big thing. I was separated, called out, set aside, set apart for what? For the gospel of God. Again, that's very interesting here, the gospel of God, because when you look through the New Testament, and we want to understand the gospel, he's going to explain the gospel to us, which is coming up for us in this book of Romans. But you find the phrase, the gospel in many different contexts. And then I've just kind of shared this in the notes that we just shared the screen, so we could all see it. How is the gospel, you know, referred to in various places? Yeah. Yeah. So we see the gospel, which we know the word gospel means good news. It's used in so many ways. He calls it the gospel of God, the gospel of his son, the gospel of Christ. Paul even uses it as my gospel. Very interesting. We will see this in Romans too. And of course, he simply means when he says my gospel means it is the gospel he received directly by revelation. He also calls it the gospel of peace. So it's an interesting thing that the message, which is good news, gospel means good news. Paul understands it in a very comprehensive way. Today, when we talk about the gospel, whereas the gospel is okay, this is what I tell the sinner, this is what I tell people outside. But for Paul, it was the message, everything started there, because it's the gospel of God, the good news of God, it's the good news of Christ, it's the good news of Jesus. It's the gospel of peace. He uses so many different titles for that, the gospel, the good news. It's all encompassing. It's from God. It's the message of Jesus. It's what I am preaching and it's what brings peace in the lives of people. You see that as he uses it, the way he uses it in Romans. Now, I've also just listed here other titles that I used, gospel titles, gospel of kingdom, the gospel of Jesus Christ, the gospel of the grace of God, the gospel of the glory of Christ, the gospel for the circumcised, for the circumcised and so on. But what I want to just emphasize is that the gospel is comprehensive and in our minds often we just say, okay, the gospel is okay, the way for salvation. That is true. Really, the gospel is everything that was proclaimed by God to us. So that's what we see in verse two, Romans chapter one, verse two. So he says about this gospel, he promised before through his prophets in the holy scriptures.  It is the gospel that I'm, my gospel, the gospel I'm preaching is the gospel of peace. This gospel, this message of good news was promised through the prophets. So when Paul was writing, we didn't have the New Testament yet. So obviously he's referring to the Old Testament prophets. So he's saying, look, this is a message that was actually proclaimed by the prophets in the Old Testament. And notice how he says, how he refers to the Old Testament. He says, which he promised through his prophets in the holy scriptures. Powerful, holy scriptures. Paul is referring to the Old Testament, which they had at that time, Genesis, all the way to Malachi. He's referring to them as the holy scriptures. You can see the regard that he has for, but you know, what we call us the Old Testament. Yeah. He holds them in such high regard, the Old Testament, the holy scriptures. And what he's saying is the gospel was already promised there by the prophets. The prophets in some way were promising, saying there's good news coming. And sure enough, we know from, right from, you know, God's call here on Abraham on through so many prophets and especially Isaiah, you know, we see them all promising the coming of Jesus Christ and what was going to happen. Right. So we see in verse two, Paul's understanding that the gospel we are preaching is not something new. It is something spoken of in the Old Testament. And we also see Paul's heart towards the Old Testament, the holy scriptures, very important. Okay. Let me go to verse three and four, Romans one, three and four. He says, concerning his son, Jesus Christ of a Lord, was born the seed of David according to the flesh and declared to be the Son of God with power, according to the spirit of holiness by the resurrection from the dead. Okay. So verse three, what is the gospel? What is this message we are preaching? It is about Jesus Christ. And in relation to the Jesus Christ, Paul mentions two things. He says, in the natural, according to the flesh that was in the natural, he was born the seed of David. He was a descendant of David. But in the spirit, he is the Son of God by the spirit of holiness and by the resurrection from the dead. Son of God with power. So saying, Jesus Christ, understand, he was a descendant of David according to the flesh. That's important because that is a fulfillment of all the prophecies. You know, the Old Testament prophecies were speaking about the root of David, an offspring of David. They were pointing to in the stem of Jesse, they're pointing to, you know, somebody coming from the line of David. So he says, this Jesus is that he was born to the seed of David, he was a descendant of David. But who was it really? Verse four, he was the Son of God, God who came into the Son of God. And we know that because he came with power by the spirit of holiness and he was raised from the dead. So highlighting the spiritual side of Jesus Christ, the Son of God with power by the spirit of holiness and by the resurrection from the dead. So this Gospel that we are preaching was given to us even by the Old Testament prophets. And the Gospel is a message about Jesus Christ. Yes, he was a descendant of David, but more importantly, he was a Son of God. And we know him as a Son of God because he came with the power of the Holy Spirit and he came and he was the one resurrected from the dead. I want to point out here very interestingly in verse four is the Holy Spirit is a spirit of holiness.  But sometimes we need to think of the Holy Spirit as the spirit of holiness. We use the phrase Holy Spirit almost like somebody's name. And so the meaning of that sometimes gets lost. Holy Spirit, Holy Spirit. It's a name of the spirit of God, the person of the Trinity, Godhead and so on. So it's just a title that comes up very easily. But when you turn it around and say spirit of holiness, now that makes you stop. Think, hey, when I talk about the Holy Spirit, I'm talking about the spirit of holiness. So not only is he the one who is holy, but his presence is holiness, spirit of holiness. You know, and sometimes I think about this in the sense that many of our church, the baby do church, sometimes there is no sense of holiness, no sense of the awe of God. But we talk so much with Holy Spirit. We may sing about the Holy Spirit, but we do it without a sense that Holy Spirit, whom we are singing about or welcoming or so on. It's actually the spirit of holiness. And therefore there has to be that consecration. There has to be that holiness that we walk in because we are saying Holy Spirit, spirit of holiness come, spirit of holiness move among us, spirit of holiness work among us. So that's just a side thought here from verse four about the Holy Spirit. But anyway, Paul is saying, going back to the main thought is that he was declared, he was announced, he was proclaimed, he was revealed as a Son of God with power by the Holy Spirit of Holiness and by the resurrection for the dead. Two things, the Son of God with power, the Son of God by the resurrection from the dead. Two things are important, power and resurrection, both demonstrative to point to Jesus Christ as the Son of God. Any, let me look at the chat, any questions so far? Are we all okay? Okay, I see a question here. Why Paul? I said my gospel is about Jesus, then why? Okay, so yeah, so Manu's question is, why does Paul refer to the gospel as my gospel? So he recognizes, like as I mentioned on the PDF, he recognizes it's the gospel of God, the gospel of the Son, the gospel of Jesus, because he recognizes it. But he also calls it my gospel because, remember, sorry, we had mentioned earlier that it was what was revealed to him directly, right? So he didn't go and hear the gospel through Peter or through James or John or one of the other apostles, no. He received the gospel message that he was preaching directly from Jesus, and we read that in Galatians chapter one, right? So verse 11 and 12. So that's why he's saying my gospel, meaning the gospel which I received from the Lord directly, which I am proclaiming, but in Galatians he does acknowledge that when he went and met the apostles, he verified that what he was preaching was the same as what they were preaching, the gospel they were preaching and the gospel he was preaching was the same. But he refers to it as my gospel simply because that it was something the Lord revealed to him directly and which he was preaching, therefore he refers to it as my gospel. Okay, all right. So if everyone is clear so far, we are going to go forward. All right, let's just look at verses five and six. I am not sure if I'm going too slow, but so going now to Romans one, five and six, I'll just go back to the PDF, so it'll help us as we look at these verses. So verse five, through him we have received, and it's through Jesus, we have received grace and apostleship, obedience to the faith among all nations for his name. So Paul is telling us that through Christ, you know he's talking about what has been given, he just talks about grace and apostleship. So I just want to, it's like a side note, I just want to make a mention here, there is grace and there is apostleship. Apostleship has to do with the commission, the work or the mission God gives you, and grace has to do with God's empowering over our lives to fulfill that commission. And this is a common way Paul always talks about ministry, not only here, but you'll also find this in Ephesians, you'll find it in Galatians where Paul always talks about grace and work, grace and commission, you know, that means for every commissioning, whatever God's called you to do, there is grace. So it's just through Christ, we have received grace and apostleship. He's given us the empowering, he's also given us the commission, the work to do, but he's empowered us to do it. And what is the work he's given us to do? He says here, we, he's been given, he's been given the commission to, for obedience to the faith, that means to bring people obedient to the faith. He says among all nations, across all the world in his name, for his name. So Paul is saying, look, God has given us grace and God has given us commission to go and bring people and make them obedient to faith in Jesus Christ, among all the nations. So Paul is basically saying, look, the work we are doing, it's a work that we have received from God, the grace we have, it's from God, the call or the commission we have, it's from God. And what is the work? Make people obedient to the faith among all nations in the name of Jesus Christ. That's worth fighting, right? And it's very interesting as, not only did you find this combination of grace and commission or grace and ministry in Paul's epistles, you also find he uses this phrase obedient to the faith in many other places, right? Coming to the faith is actually coming into a place of obedience, right? And sometimes we don't emphasize that aspect enough because we say, come to the faith in Jesus, come to faith in Jesus Christ, you'll be saved from your sin. Come to faith in Jesus Christ, you'll be blessed. Come to faith in Jesus Christ, you'll be healed. Come to faith in Jesus Christ, you'll be free. But Paul is looking at it as an obedience to the faith. That means, come to faith in Jesus Christ, you're actually coming into a place of submission. You're actually coming into a place of giving up your personal, your own freedom in order to obey Christ. So that is something we need to make clear when we preach the gospel. That is, when you come to faith in Jesus, you're coming into obedience to Christ.  That's what we're coming into. Yes, there will be healing. Yes, there will be deliverance. Yes, there will be, you know, blessing. Yes, there will be whatever other blessings of the gospel. Yes, but coming to faith is coming to a place of obedience to the faith. It's a very important phrase Paul uses. We will see it again later on in Romans 15, 18, Romans 16, 26. He talks about obedience to the faith. And then he goes on in verse six as we have read. He says, among whom you also are the called of Jesus Christ. So he says, believers, you know, God has given us this commission and we are serving him among all the nations and you are part of that. You are also the called of Jesus Christ. You've been also brought into this place of obedience to the faith. Okay. So we've gone through the first six verses. Let's pick up and let's read verses 7 to 12, please. And then we will go to them again. Let me just check with the class. Is everybody comfortable with the speed at which I'm going? Is it too slow? Can I go a little faster? Okay. You're fine. Okay. So I'm not too fast, but you are fine with me. Okay. Right. So in case I'm going too slow or too fast, let me know if you want me to go fast. Okay. Let's please read verses 7 to 12 and then we will look at it. Okay. Sir, I'll read. Yeah, please. I am writing to all you in Rome who are loved by God and are called be his own holy people. May God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ give you grace and peace. Let me say first that I thank God through Jesus Christ for all of you, all of you, because your faith in him is being talked about all over the world. God knows how often I pray for you day and night. I bring you and your need in prayer to God whom I serve with all my heart by spreading the good news about his son. One of one of the things I always pray for, pray for he is, is the opportunity God willing to come at last to see you for I long to visit you. So I can bring you some spiritual gift that will help you grow strong in the Lord. When we get together, I want to encourage you in your faith, but I also want to be encouraged by you. Thank you. Thank you. Yeah, 7 to 12. Sorry. Yeah. Good. Thank you. So Paul has done the introduction, which is the background to who he is as a ministry of God. What is he proclaiming? And what is his objective? Right? That was verses one through six. Who is Paul? He's a bond servant. He's called. He's separated. What are you proclaiming? A message that was proclaimed by the prophets in the Old Testament contained in the Holy Scriptures.  And this message, he is doing it by the grace and the commission God has given him. And the goal is to bring people in all the nations to be obedient to the faith. So that's the introduction. This is who I am. This is what I'm preaching. This is what I'm doing. This is my objective. Then he says, okay, and I'm now reaching out to you people in Rome. But then, you know, of course people say, okay, so why are you reaching out to us? Why are you writing to us? So he tells them saying, look at how he addresses them in verse seven. Beloved of God called to be saints. It's always very interesting and Paul's led to see how he looks at the people of God. What is his view of the church or believers? Very interesting to see that. And here he says, beloved of God called to be holy ones. Saints mean simply holy people, holy ones, consecrated ones. He says, beloved of God, you are deeply loved by God. You're deeply special to God. And you were called to be holy ones. He's also reminding them, you are holy people. You're called to be holy ones. So that's Paul's view. That's the way he looks at the church. He looks at people. And, you know, for us as ministers of God, as people who are serving others in the church, how do we perceive them? You know, sometimes when you hear people talk about those in their congregation, they may speak so badly. These people, they are so worldly. They are so whatever. You know, may not have a very good opinion of church people. But here it doesn't seem like that. He says, these are beloved people, beloved to God. And they're called to be holy people. That's how I'm going to see them, beloved and called to be holy. He says, grace to you in peace. It's like well wishes. You know, like when we greet somebody, hey, have a good day.   I want something good for you. So grace to you in peace. Let that come to you. God's grace, God's peace to you from God the Father. He says, I thank my God. So now he's talking about how he's praying for these people, praying for them. And what does he pray? First of all, he's thanking God. So part of his prayer for the people is thanksgiving. Right? He says, we're saying, I thank my God. Your faith is spoken of throughout the whole world. So we're thankful for the people of God. So how about we be thankful for the church people that among whom we serve? We're thankful for what? In their case, their faith was spoken of in many other places. That means people saying, hey, the billiards in Rome, wow, they're such wonderful people. They are strong. And, you know, the church in Rome was actually increasingly persecuted. So eventually, they actually during this time, they were getting closer and closer to a massive persecution of the church, which would happen in a matter of 10 years, you know, 10 years from the writing of this episode, Paul himself was killed at Rome, approximately, or 8068. And then there was big persecution. So increasingly, it wasn't may not have been so bad at that time, but it was getting bad. But yet the believers in Rome, the people were, you know, hearing about their faith, their life as believers, he says, and I thank God for that. So we can find things to thank God for among the people, for the church people, people that we are serving, the people we are ministering to. I suppose I thank God for you. What else is he praying for them? Then he says in verse nine, he says, God is my witness, for my servant, my spirit in the gospel of his son, that without seizing, I make mention of you always in my presence. Look, I am praying for you. And God is my witness. God knows I'm praying for you. But what I want to point out there in verse nine is he says there, whom I serve with my spirit. Something to think about says, I serve God with my spirit. Why is that important? Sometimes we think about serving God as a lot of what we think about our physical work, right? Or I have to get up, I have to go preach, I have to dress like this, I have to look like this. You know, we think about the ministry, a lot of the ministry we do, we think about the outside. And yes, that's important. I'm not saying it's not important. You know, today we have a wide range of how people look on the outside in the process industry, whatever, you know, wide range. We have people wearing suits and whatever and all of that. We have wide range. So we are all serving God. Those are the externals. Each one has their own things that they think about fine. But don't forget, we serve God with our spirit. Interesting. I'm not serving just with my body or my outside. First of all, I'm serving with my spirit. So a big question we have to ask is what is the condition of the spirit? That is because this is a spiritual work. You know, we have the emphasis on the outer man and I'm repeating myself here. What is the condition of the outer man?  Are you nicely clothed? Do you look good? All those things. Okay, to some extent it's important because people have to be it relates to you. Fine. But serving God is a work of your spirit. The work you're doing, ministry work, is a work of your spirit. It says, verse nine, God is my witness, whom with my spirit or in the spirit, spiritual work, a lot to think about. Ministry work is spiritual work. It is work that is your spirit is doing. So I must keep my spirit in good shape. I must keep my spirit strong. My spirit must be in good shape to serve God. Of course, the outer man, you know, more to extent is needed.  It helps you relate to people. But the spirit, what is the condition of the spirit? And we are going to serve God. It is spiritual work. And part of that spiritual work, he says here, verse nine, I am praying, I am praying for you, for the people that he's serving, or he wants to go and serve. I'm praying for you. In my prayer, I'm giving thanks to God for your faith. Secondly, and I'll quickly summarize verse 10, 11 and 12.  So, you know, so the church in Rome was not a baby church, right? Like we said, some of the believers were there from the day of Pentecost. So there have been believers for at least 20, nearing 30 years by this time. So if you say Pentecost happened on the 80, 30, this is about 80, 57, so almost 20 years, 30 years, sorry, almost 30 years. Some of them have been believers. Some of them, you know, came on later on. So they're not baby believers. And yet Paul is saying, I want to come, I want to give you something to establish, to make you strong. So that means there is spiritual input we can give or we continue to give to people who may have been Christians for a long time. I mean, in this case, you know, almost 30 years, as I'm mentioning, but we can still give them input to establish them, to make them even more firm, even more strong, even more secure in their faith. And then verse 12 he says, you know, I want to encourage you and I also want to be encouraged. So that's again another side of Paul, we see the humility that he would say, look, and I want to encourage you. But through the process, I also want to be encouraged. We're going to stop here. Next week, I want to pick up in verse 11 and spend some time talking about that, you know, imparting spiritual gift. What is that? What is that? I want to just dig into that a little bit. We will do that next week. We will start off from there. Okay. Any questions before we close in prayer? I know we've just gone through the first 12 verses here. But any questions? Any thoughts? Okay. All right. Let's take a few minutes to pray. And, you know, there's so much here we've just trying to digest, chew on these scriptures and let it just sing, sing into our hearts, chew on it. Next week is, let's close in prayer and we'll get ready for our next class. Somebody could please pray and dismiss us. So celebrate. Father God, we just gone before you, Father God. Father God, thank you for everything, Father God. Thank you, Father God, for a woman book, Father God. Thank you, Father God, for that book. Thank you for your revelation, Father God.

This video will show you the steps to create an ArcGIS online web app by publishing a map using ArcGIS Pro. There are four steps to creating a web app. First, you're going to configure your map using ArcGIS Pro. You're then going to publish the map to ArcGIS Online. You're going to create the web app, and then finally you're going to share your web app. Prior to getting started, you're going to want to head over to ArcGIS Online and make sure you have the ability to both login and publish data. You may have to reach out to your organization's Azure Administrator in order to get those permissions. Prior to publishing your map, you're going to want to devote the necessary time to set up a decent ArcGIS project. You can see here that I've got two layers, one displaying neighborhood tree canopy and one displaying neighborhood surface temperature, both for the City of Pittsburgh. I've taken the time to give the layers meaningful names and also to configure the legends so that the data can be easily understood. You can adjust the display of your data along with the legend information over in the symbology tab. For this percent neighborhood tree canopy data, I'm using a meaningful color scheme. You also notice that I've adjusted the labels so they actually share the percent values. Under the advance tab, you can get in and adjust those labels, eliminating unnecessary decimal places and choosing to display percent data with a percent symbol. I've also taken the time to configure my fields so that when I click on an individual neighborhood, only the requisite information comes up. You can see that each one of these fields has been carefully formatted to eliminate excess decimal places and show only the data I want to get across to the end user. This complete neighborhoods layer has an awful lot of information attached to it and I don't need to display all of this. So by going up to the data tab and selecting the fields option, I can configure my attributes to only display what I want the end user to see. Checking the visible button controls what fields are displayed. You want to make sure that all the fields you're choosing to display have a meaningful alias and that if they are numeric data that you formatted them correctly. Once you've looked everything over, don't forget to save your project. Now you're ready to publish this map and get it up on ArcGIS Online. First step is to click on the share tab. Under the options for share as, click on the button for web map. This opens the share as web map interface. You're going to fill out some key information required for ArcGIS Online and you're also going to configure your web map settings. The main field cannot have any spaces or unusual characters. Your summary should be a clear and concise description of your web map. Add any keywords in the tag section you think would help people find your map. Give some thought as to who you want to grant permission to view your web map. Is it just your organization, everyone in the world, or select group of people for a group that you've created in ArcGIS Online. Chances are the default configuration setting is just fine, but if you're using your map for other purposes such as data editing, you may want to change the configuration setting. Prior to sharing your map, you'll want to click on the analyze button to make sure that the map's been configured correctly. If there's any errors that pop up here, those ones with the red X, you'll need to address them. Warning signs, you can ignore, but you might want to consider fixing. You're now ready to publish the map. You can confirm your configuration settings, checking messages, and then when that's set, click the share button. Once the share process is complete, you're set to move over to ArcGIS Online. Sharing a web map creates three new pieces of content within ArcGIS. We really care about the first one, which is the actual web map. So let's go in and explore the web map. This is a good place to check out and make sure that your settings, configurations, and everything in that web map turned out as you expected it. So opening in that web map viewer, turning on and off the layers, and checking your legends and symbology is a good thing to do prior to going ahead and using this web map within a web app. Once you've confirmed everything looks good, navigate back to the content section of ArcGIS Online. We're now going to use that web map as the foundation for building our web app. So from the create menu, scroll down to the app section and choose using the web app builder. So we're going to create a new web app here. You're going to want to give it a title, tags, and some summary information, just like you did when you created your map in ArcGIS Pro. This will put you in the web app designer interface. First, you'll want to decide on a theme. Once you've selected a theme, you can make some modifications to its properties, like the colors. Don't worry if you don't like the theme. You can always play around and preview your web app and adjust the theme later. Moving over to the map tab, this is where you're going to choose the map, the one that you just published ArcGIS Online, that's going to participate in the web app. Go ahead and select your map, but keep in mind that you cannot make any modifications to the map within the web app designer interface. You've got to go back to the web map in order to make any changes. Given that we just made some modifications to the web app, it's a good idea to save it. We can further customize our web app through the use of widgets. Each web app, by default, has certain widgets included. We can choose to remove those widgets, add additional widgets, or reorder them. For this web app, I'm going to add a base map widget and a swipe widget. I'm now going to reorganize the widgets to change the order that they appear in the web app. Under the attributes tab, you can make some other minor changes, like adjusting the header text that will appear in the top panel. Down below, you can click on the previews button. This is a really nice feature with the web app builder because it allows you to see how your web app will appear on various devices. Once you're happy with the previews, the final check should be to go ahead and launch your web app to see how it looks within your browser. This is where you'll want to check out all your widgets, preview the legends, and just make sure everything in general is working and appears as you wish it would. Remember, you can't make any changes to a lot of the key components here. You would have to go back to the actual web map to do that or possibly republish your data. This is why it's important to get it right early on. We're nearly done. Our final step is to go back into the ArcGIS Online content, select our web app, and go into the share settings. Remember we set the share settings when we published our map, but this is the app and we have to set the app settings independently. Make sure that if you want everyone to see this, those not in your organization, you check the box for everything. Once you have that set, scroll down to the bottom, copy the link, and you're ready to share your app.

Hi, my name is Liz Humphries and I'm a water scientist Erie, so we're at Ackermann Lees Agronomy Rice Challenge, the wet-seeded rice field. Establishments are a bit patchy in places, they said some of it's due to birds, some of it's due to low-lying areas. So that's the first, one of the first issues with water management is wet-seeded rice currently is really sensitive to water. If you have too much water the seeds die and so that's why you need really good levelling and secondly it's why we really need to get anaerobic germination tolerance into rice seeds so that the technology is less difficult and less risky for farmers. So this field was lucky after it was established there was where a few showers of rain which kept it going nicely, I don't think it's been irrigated yet but Ackermann's just applying fertilizer and so the ideal thing next will be to irrigate to wash the fertilizer into the soil. One way to reduce the amount of irrigation water we apply to rice is to do what we call alternate wetting and drying. So this means we flood the field, then we let the water disappear, we let the surface dry down and then we re-irrigate again and that the anybody can do alternate wetting and drying but the question is how do you do it safely so that you don't lose any yield because rice is so sensitive to too much drying. So over the years Erie's done a lot of research and they've found that if we let the soil dry down below about 10 or 15 kilopascals, soil water tension at about 15 centimetres below the soil surface the rice suffers but 10 or 15 kilopascals probably doesn't mean anything to you and it doesn't mean anything to farmers. Over the last 24 hours since we got this beautiful sun and warm weather the plants have really started to jump out really started to grow it's getting a bit dry the water table's about 15 centimetres below the surface so I see you've just fertilized so it's the ideal time to irrigate. Yeah we need to really get water on I can see when I walk through there are patches where it gets pretty dry and even some bees are coming so I'm getting quite worried but there are also some low-lying places over there where it hasn't germinated that well so I'm worried that if you put too much water on we might even kill off more you know so we've got to find the right balance but a little bit of water is needed now. Some really nice work with this really simple field water tube which just shows you where the water table is. You can pull it out I think. Let's go and install one and the place where it should be. 15 centimetres from the bottom so you should push it into the mark you can go a little bit further it doesn't matter. Okay put the rod in here and I need to get it straight right yep oh it's so easy Jesus yeah oh look at this oh soft like cake okay okay you're there now stick your hands inside and take all the soil out what if somebody something bites me in there oh you'll be right okay okay how often do we think I need to come out and check this oh well it depends on the weather for a start and it's but at least once a week right yeah at least once a week yeah these soils hold the hold the water pretty well and the water table's very shallow here because you're more or less around a guy flooded fields okay I'm going to come and look at least twice a week because I feel trusted I'd start with twice a week because you don't know what you're doing and once you get to know you feel better then you need to look less often yeah it's now a week later and we've kept the water in the field on as a shallow water layer just a few centimetres mainly because we wanted to make sure that we can avoid some wheat grows in the areas of John's as low line so so far it looks quite good so we haven't been able to do a full alternating and drying yet but we'll move to that once the canopy is closed so but for now we're going to keep a shallow water layer and we'll see how the crop develops now during tillering


The eMidwife mobile application, developed to assist nurse midwives in managing obstetric complications, was found to have good usability and quality through a randomized controlled trial involving 140 nurse midwives. The app's overall score of 82.75 plus or minus 0.68, and total mean score of 3.77 plus or minus 0.86 indicate its effectiveness and efficiency in the early diagnosis and quick delivery of respectful maternity care. It is recommended that similar mobile apps be used along with other educational methods for educating nurse midwives. This article was authored by Santhoshkumari Molan and Hepsiba S. Sharmal.


One of the most useful yet confusing tools for students, particularly in medical school has to be Anki. Like just look at these settings.  And so today's video, we're going to make this super useful tool a lot more simpler by going over the best settings for you as a student. Let's get into it. Hey friends, welcome back to channel. In case you're new here, my name is Lakshman, internal medicine physician. And here on the MD journey, make videos and content to help people like you succeed on whatever journey you're on, particularly medical journeys, but doing it with less stress. And to help with that less stress aspect, today I want to do a full breakdown of the best settings that you could be using in Anki. And we'll talk about everything from basic settings to how to make sense of the settings to how to actually adjust the settings to best use it for your particular circumstance. Now if you're brand new to Anki, I definitely recommend first watching this videos that so far at this point, 250,000 people have watched here on YouTube and dropped hundreds and hundreds of comments on. And this will not only break down how Anki works, the basics profiles, but also advanced strategies that I use as a medical student to help go from 10 hours a day to five hours a day of studying and also still graduate with a 3.9 GPA. So if you're not familiar with what Anki is, if it's still really confusing, you want to know how to actually use it, then go ahead and check out that video first and then come to this video to actually understand the minutias of the settings and how to best use it for yourself. And when you're done with that video, then you can come back here where we actually talk about the settings, which I'll be completely honest, are still very confusing. And I'm not going to pretend that in this video, I understand every single minutia. So if I do make a mistake, just politely comment down below. That way I, as well as every other person who's trying to use Anki can best learn from you. And full disclaimer, no, I didn't learn all this by myself. And also to make sure I wasn't making this video that needed to be, I'll link down below some of the amazing blog posts that I found where people really, really get into the math and the numbers behind all these settings. So if you're wanting to learn more or if the video didn't help you out, make sure you check those links out, possibly answering your question as well. And so as a quick overview in today's video, we'll talk about the basic settings of Anki, as well as the basic settings of actually how to do the learning aspect of it and how to make some changes and what those do to those individual flashcards. If you feel like you're already somewhat of a pro at Anki, then go ahead and click out any of the chapters in the video and jump to the part that you're most interested in. And while you're down there, hit that like button. And there's just a few things to highlight that are good to know, one of them including the night mode. So if you really enjoy this like black kind of look, which I definitely do in most of my things, you can click this and you just have to restart Anki to have this look.  Next and arguably probably the most important is the scheduling and the basic settings. And essentially the first few things that you wanna make sure are checked is this first box that says show next review time above answer buttons. Essentially what this does, if I have unchecked this and I go into any single flashcard that I have to do, let's just do this Anki tutorial. Then if I go ahead, I see that there are no times that are set above my easy good hard again functions. But if I go back in here and I go ahead and select the preferences and I go back and close it. Now, if I started this flashcard, you can actually see the time intervals respected to each individual selection that I made. So I usually recommend that you go ahead and keep that open so that way you'll know when the next time you see a flashcard is, that way you know that if a test you're studying for is going to show up in X amount of days and you wanna make sure you see that card again, this will probably not be the best settings because I'm actually see this card in a year, 1.3 years. Next, I usually recommend keeping this check which is to show remaining card counts. Essentially you'll know how many cards are left before you're done with your review. It's usually nice for me to kind of keep an eye of how many cards I have left so I can keep myself moving along, especially if I have little time left and lots of cards to review. And then the last function that's probably important to know is how you want Anki to essentially treat your new cards and new flashcards that you make as well as your old review ones. You can either choose to have a mixture where it essentially mixes new and old cards together or if you wanna see your new cards first or your new cards after your old ones. This is kind of a matter of preference but I've seen a lot of students use any one of these options and do just perfectly fine. And the final parts of these basic settings include essentially when you want your next day to be started. I usually recommend just putting this four hours past midnight because most of us aren't doing flashcards at 4 a.m. And then finally these last two usually don't have to change the default settings. The learn ahead limit essentially says that if you click a flashcard and you selected it that you wanna show up in 15 minutes then what is the maximum time that you can see that flashcard again. So if you set it to zero then the quickest you can see it is in 15 minutes but if you show it again in 15 or 10 minutes that means if you're done with all of your flashcards we'll show you that one again. Usually I just set this to 20 and that's what it's been since the start of my duration. And then finally your time box time limit essentially says that if you want some kind of motivating factor that says, hey, Lux, you've reviewed X amount of cards in the last 30 minutes and you wanna keep the momentum going you can set this up and it'll give you a little bit of a notification that says you've done this many flashcards. I usually don't care to have Anki motivate me more than it demotivates me by the amount of cards that I have like hundreds of here but everyone has their own personal option. In case you're having any issues with a network connection or syncing your cards I'll just go ahead and put my current settings up here you can pause the video and make sure that those are the ones that you currently have. So now that we've gotten into the basic settings let's actually get into the meat and potatoes of how all of the important settings in Anki work which is really where the confusing part comes especially doing this for four years. I really didn't understand any of this and I actually just never cared to but hopefully for the purpose of this video I can explain the multiple different buttons and how you can adjust and change these based off when your next quiz, your next exam or how well you wanna learn certain information would be. So to mess around with the settings and understand it let's just click on any of the decks we'll do farm because let's be honest no one likes farm except pharmacist but we're gonna go into the options and really try to make sense of each and every one of these things. And the first thing we have to understand are steps which is if you're looking in the new card setting then the steps will be here and are shown in minutes. Steps are essentially what it sounds like whenever I do a flash card for example if I kept these steps which says one and 10 minutes then if I go ahead and go ahead and click on the first flash card it essentially represents what good would look like. So to make sense of some of these settings the first thing we have to really understand is what steps mean. Now steps essentially how you wanna graduate or how you wanna anki to move along every time you don't or do understand a flash card. And the best way to understand this is that one it's in minutes and so essentially it says that whatever this first option is is that if I don't know a card and I click again which will show in a second then it's gonna show it to me again in a minute. And if I select good which I'll show again then it'll show me that card again in 10 minutes. Now if I have a different interval after it that essentially means that if I click good the first time it'll show it to me in 10 minutes. Now if I add more to my steps let's just say I say 60 essentially what this means that if I click again it's gonna show me the flash card just like before in one minute. If I do click good on a flash card because I know it it's gonna show it to me again in 10 minutes and if I click good again then the next interval moving up is going to be 60 minutes and then after that the card is essentially graduated that means I feel like I've learned it. So I'm essentially going to be learning this card in three steps but the first one being my option for again. So just to show the basic options if I just go ahead and click restore default and I go ahead and click on study now then the first thing it's gonna do is again if I clicked again it's gonna show it to me in one minute and then everything that will be after that will be in the good interval. So less than 10 minutes will be here. And then if I chose to go ahead and add something to that specific deck and I wanted to make it a different interval so I just say I created some options. And so if I came back from the default setting and I changed it to something else like this for example essentially what this will mean is if I have to show the card again it's gonna show it to me in 60 minutes and then if I say good it's gonna say okay first time you're gonna get to see the card again in one day then you're gonna see the card in two days and then you're gonna see the card in four days.  So you can play with these settings as you like and if you do find something that you do really enjoy then you can just go manage and add as I did here for this YouTube example as well as some other options that will go over in one second. So as you guys can see for this example flash card if I clicked again then it's gonna show it to me in my first interval which I put 60 minutes in that last setting and then if I actually click good it's gonna show it to me in one day if tomorrow I see the same flash card again and I click good it's actually gonna say two days instead of one and then if I click it one more time then it's gonna say show it to me again in four days. So that's how the intervals work. Now finishing off some of the other parts of the settings under new cards the first thing that you can see is what orders you want the cards to be shown. So you can either say show the new cards that are added or show new cards in a random order. Usually again I recommend seeing the new cards first I can just feel like the new material is out of my way but you can play with the preferences however you want. Next is pretty self-explanatory how many new cards you wanna see. Essentially I will set this to a number that is a little higher than the amount of cards that typically make in a day. So if I'm typically making 50 cards in a day then I'll probably set it at 100 so I can make sure I see all of my new cards the day that I make them. The next setting we have to talk about is the graduating interval. Now this is essentially the learning phase of Anki which basically says a card is under the learning phase if it's somewhere within this interval. But if I get past where I'm clicking good on day four then now the card is officially graduated or if I move day four and I just wanna see the card twice then after pressing good on day two then that card is officially graduated. Or if I wanna remove this last option and saying well if I see the card again in one day and still press good and then I press it again in two days afterwards and still press good then I wanna say that's probably enough luck that you've seen the card. So the graduating interval is essentially okay like what many days do you want in between when the card is graduated to when you see it again. So if I click 10 then essentially that would mean that after seeing this card and pressing good here the next time that that card would show up after being graduated would be 10 days. And the easy interval is also very self-explanatory. Essentially these steps are really made for you using the again and good option within Anki which I really didn't understand. I was always pressing the easy option if I really knew a card but it's defaulted to set to four. If I press easy it is always set to whatever that easy interval it is. Essentially if you use a good and again option you're using the Anki algorithm to help move a card along but if you press easy you essentially skip all of that and it automatically graduates the card. And so that's something to keep in mind if you think a card is somewhat easy but not really enough to where you feel like it's done with the Anki algorithm then usually pressing good is your way to go especially if you're used and wanting to see a card more often than not. And so just an example if we set the easy interval at 10 days because you're like I really just don't wanna see cards that I'm really good at then if I go in here then this card will actually show up an easy and then I can use the good and again option to really be crucial saying like do you really understand this flash card or the slide in this setting or should you be using the good option? So it's always something worth considering and I usually will recommend keeping it at four unless you have something like boards which we'll talk about later in the episode. And then finally something I would recommend checking if it's not is the very related new cards until the next day. If you're using something like the close option where like a long sentence or a phrase is related but then you're only showing a flash card. For example, if you were to be using Anki to do geography you may be saying the capital of so and so is this and you could essentially make two flash cards using the close option but it's too easy to see both of those flash cards during the same setting so essentially if I saw a close option where it says the capital of Texas is Austin or Austin is the capital of Texas I wouldn't wanna see both of those flash cards the same day. So putting this makes sure that card if it was supposed to show up today will at least get buried until the next day. Next we're gonna get into the review tabs and the settings that you can recommend so just going back to the default to kind of show you where most things are. The first thing that you have to think about is the maximum reviews per day. I usually will set this number and most students will set this number as high as possible because you don't want a card not to show up just because the view number was a little bit too low. By no means if you set the number at 9999 will you actually see almost 10,000 flash cards a day where you shouldn't but this at least makes sure that the cards that should be scheduled for that day aren't lingering because of this one setting. And the rest of these settings that you usually don't touch one thing that you should keep in mind is the maximum interval which essentially said, what is the longest time that you wanna go until you see a flash card for the next time? And then the rest of the things on the review settings you can usually just leave by itself and be perfectly fine but one thing I do recommend considering changing is the maximum intervals. Basically this says how many days in between when you see a flash card for the next time. This is essentially set for a hundred years I believe but I would recommend changing this particularly if you're studying for something like a board exam. So if you say my test is gonna be in a year if then you can at least say I wanna see the card again in 200 days. So even if the interval is much longer than 200 you'll at least see the card more than once or at least before test day. But otherwise you can just keep it at 365 which means that you'll see those flash cards again at least within a year.  And on a similar note whenever you're doing your reviews I also click the very related reviews to make sure that the cards that I'm doing I'm not biased by other cards that I'm getting to kind of help me with these answers. So again, capital Texas, Austin, Austin's, capital Texas I usually wouldn't wanna see those same cards on the same day. So clicking that will make sure that that's avoided. Now if you've understood all of that so far like bless you because it takes us a while and again if any of that is confusing I will link some of the articles and blogs that really helped me understand this and also get into a lot more detail that I'm getting into this video. The bottom line is that you really don't have to change these settings. You can be perfectly fine using some of those techniques that we talked about in that first video which is why I recommend going to that if you haven't done so already. But using some of these techniques will at least give you a little bit more granular control especially if you're cramming or studying for board exams which we'll get to in a second. But to finish off the settings we have to get into laps settings. Now laps is basically okay I've graduated a card thus so I go back in here and this that means that I've seen a card in 10 minutes and I've called it done or in my YouTube example I see a card in one day and then two days and then it's officially graduated. Well what if that card is now shown to me again and I don't know it? Like what happens to a graduated card? That's essentially what the laps function or lap settings helps you do. So essentially when you lapse on a card or you have to press again then how does that card move going forward? And essentially this is the new steps for that individual card before it's essentially re-graduated. So if I see a card let's say I don't know that Austin is the capital of Texas but I did a month ago or a week ago and so this basically says that to re-graduate that card based off of the default settings at Anki I would just have to show it to myself again in 10 minutes but if you really wanted to make sure that I forgot something I really want to make sure I nail it down then you can say I'm gonna add a little bit more time. So to re-graduate this card this proverbial card of Austin being the capital of Texas I'd have to show it and make sure that I know it and press good show it to me again in 10 minutes and so if you feel like you want to know a graduated card that you lapsed on even better then usually the default settings is just set to 10 minutes but you can make this even longer and have multiple steps so a card that you've forgotten can be easily remembered you can do 10, 60 and we'll talk about more settings later on. The next thing that we have to talk about that's really important is called a new interval setting essentially this says that if you do last on a card you can have cards that you may see in 365 days which means that you haven't seen in a year or cards that you've seen in 30 days but right now the default setting is set to zero. So essentially it will penalize both cards equally so a card that you may know really well or a card that's been a long time since you've seen will basically say show it to me again in one day. Usually that's not the way you want to do your learning typically most people will set this anywhere from 20 to 40 to 50. So for example if you haven't seen a flash card in 365 days if it's at 0% the next time you'll see that card is an interval of one day but if you set it at let's say 20% then it's going to take you 365 that's when the card should have shown and multiply it by 20% or roughly about 70 days which basically means you take a penalty but not as big of a one for a flash card that's relatively new. So hopefully that made sense and again there's more examples in the blog post linked down below.  This basically says that if you see a card that you keep graduating and you keep messing up on over and over again what do you want Anki to do? So usually I just recommend keeping it at eight last days and then essentially tagging it. That means if you have a flash card that you were once officially okay with when you graduated and then you essentially keep forgetting and forgetting it then you want to make sure Anki sometimes does something with it. Usually tagging is a great option because then if you're studying for like a board exam or something you can come back and say let's look at all the flash cards that kind of knew but now I'm forgetting and it'll tag with the leech option. So guys I know that that was a lot. Hopefully it wasn't too confusing. If it was again all of those blog posts I'll be linked down below as well as dropping your comments down below and questions, they happen to answer them. But just keep in mind that you don't necessarily need to change these unless you want a little bit more granular control. I never made any adjustments when I was in medical school to these settings. I was still able to do just fine. But the next few things we'll talk about is how to change the settings in case you're cramming in case you're prepping for a long board exam or if you an exam in a couple of days how to make sure you use the best use of Anki. Let's get into that part. So cramming function Anki is something I used a lot not because I was necessarily cramming but sometimes the Anki reviews tended to be so much into the future compared to when my test was. So let's just say I have a test in three or four days but I don't have flash cards that are scheduled for that individual lectures for another week. So one thing you can do is actually use the custom study option and you can go to study by card or state or tag and then click right here all cards in a random order and usually I would make this number atrociously high because essentially this will make you a custom deck so you can come back to it later but I will make this kind of like 999 or something that way especially if I'm studying a lot of cards for an individual test I'm not limited to 100 but now you can essentially see all of your cards in a random order for a specific test. So if I click choose tags there's no tags specifically for this one but I'll click okay and it shows me all 27 cards for this individual random deck that I made and you can do this for any of your tests you can do this per lecture if you're using mini decks so if I go back in here and you're doing something like this where if you have a cardiology block and you're making mini decks you can do this per individual class so if it's a Monday and you're like oh I have to review lecture one and two then you can go ahead and do the custom study for lecture one and then come back and do lecture two or if you're like oh I just need a study for all of the cardiology material in like no necessarily random order then you can just do the same thing but use custom study and then do it for all of those cards within that big large deck and if you're studying for a board exam like step one and you're using pre-made cards or here's the onking deck you can actually click on it and say oh I actually want to do a custom study and I want to go ahead and just cram for the weak cards that I'm struggling with so if I click choose tags then it will show me all the different areas that are already marked within so I just want to do biochem questions from Ambos or if I want to do boards and beyond and so, so, so many more and the final part of this video I'm gonna go ahead and just put out the various settings for different kind of utilities that you may need first thing we'll talk about is cramming and so if you want to just go pause the video you can copy these settings as you need them and just go ahead and make a new one the first thing is cramming so in addition to using the custom study option which is usually the thing that I like to do if you do want to use onking in a quick way where you just see flashcards over and over again in a short period of time and you're just ready to grind out some hours of doing flashcards then again your new cards you can make multiple different intervals so that you can see the same flashcard again so again this will say I want a weak card, again card to show up in 10 minutes but then everything that's good will be 30 180 minutes, 70, 20 and so forth the more steps that I add into this process the more times I'll see that card before it's officially graduated but you can also make these intervals relatively short so then some of the flashcards will show up again that same day or the very next day and in a similar fashion when you get into the last function you can go ahead and pause the video here essentially this will say you'll see a flashcard within a day two days and then four days so if you're setting for a test within a week then you can actually be make sure that you can see your good cards within that span of time now on the flip side if you're setting for something like a board exam or if you have a pre-made Anki deck where there are tons and tons of cards usually it makes more sense that you start to see the flashcard initially maybe again in a day or two and then there's a larger gap so that way you have more time to see newer information so this is my board prep settings so again you can pause these and you can change these however you want so don't feel like you've to tack my settings based off of it again I didn't necessarily didn't use these settings when I was using Anki but this is how I would recommend setting this up initially if I press the good option it's going to show it to me again in one day and then if I show the good option again it's going to show it to me in three days and you can change your easy interval to something like 10 days so if it's a flashcard that you know really well then you can just put it as 10 and your graduate interval after that point will be three days or if you wanted to make it a week at a time that's also okay if you feel like you're mastering certain flashcards and you want a bigger gap between those and to see more and more information this is usually the way I recommend and then if you go into the last function this will essentially say that if you do have a flashcard that was good and you graduated and then you kind of set down then it'll show it to you again in one day and I believe 10, 0, 8, 0 I have to do my math backwards is seven days, so cool so that's a week and then finally get into the last function if you do have a board prep card that you were graduating in and then you have to press again it will show it to you again in one day and then go back to showing you two again in a week and then move forward into the intervals and if you're studying for your board prep the last thing that I would do is just go into your review function and change this based off of how many days you have left into your actual exam and then at least give yourself a little bit of extra time so if my test was in 300 days like a year I may want to see that card again in 150 days that way I can possibly see it again second time before the test actually comes around so I can get the cards multiple times around and you can change this however you want but usually I keep the minimum at 365 now the biggest takeaway from this video is one, if you haven't watched that other video on how to use Anki like a pro highly recommend it but two, in videos that I made about Anki such as the add-ons which you can check out right here you don't necessarily have to do any changes if you don't want to you can essentially make the most of Anki and using some of the strategies that we talked about in that initial video to really get the most of it again if you want some more granular control or at least you want to understand what the hell you're changing hopefully this video and this episode helped you out again if you're still confused add your comments down below but if this video helped any part more sense to you all I ask is you hit a quick like button to really just support this video and the channel because this video wasn't that easy to make you can try to understand how complicated it was for me to try to understand it I'm still trying to make sense of it but again if I didn't do a good enough job I will try to give as much credit to the people who did do a much better job in blog posts and more descriptions I'll link those down below there'll also be a blog post to this video so you can always come back to the actual text and images that I used in this video for you to refer back to later and I'll link that blog post down below once that article goes live but with that being said friends if you do want to learn more of how to use eight steps using Anki to go from 10 hours to five hours and a 3.9 GPA in med school I'll link down below the free course that I have that's eight

You went on to assert modern science is starting to affirm what Muhammad knew all along that even drinking in moderation is bad. Well, I don't accept that even drinking in moderation is bad, but I don't find it remotely surprising that people who have lived around other people and watched them get drunk and how they interact with people would have come to a conclusion that drinking causes problems. Here's what I say about atheists who try to contradict science to save themselves, to save atheism from the demolition of the science of the Quran. Get your views, peer review. And when the scientists say, yes, what Matt is saying is right, then I will say, look, Quran is wrong. He is not able to answer why do we find so much scientifically correct statements in the Quran. Even if they got it right, that doesn't tell you how they got it right. And it doesn't prove that Islam is true. Are you going to demonstrate the truth of Islam?


So this is a question I had numerous times and to be honest I ain't gonna lie to yous at first I wasn't sure and the answer because it's something I really didn't notice Was happening in regards to being rewarded it and that is Increased beast Sluts those in which you sluts as you can see right here I have max now which is like 50 odd But you start with 20 here and the more you've got here Obviously guys means the more efficient farming these bees can be for you to sell them and earn More money, so it's no wonder people want to know what today guys.  Let me quickly give you a stroke man. Here you go. I Caps on buddy a cap somebody come back come back. There you go Okay, so yes, if you do you don't even like really helps out and if you like what you see I want to see more be sure to subscribe. Okay, so yes So there are three instances in the game a quest you have to do to unlock these Be sluts the first one gives you 15 extra slots the second and third give you 10 each okay, so The first one guys is tied to a quest called the high keep when you first guys Get your flying man. It's the Griffin the festival as well if you got the if you pre-ordered it you'll also get the The Onyx Hippogriff. Did I just say Griffin? I'm playing a lot of Ark I meant the Hippogriff The first truth if you got a dark arts pack and the Onyx Hippogriff now, this is the actual the quest line Where you rescue the Hippogriff? I don't want to ruin it for anybody Was a great great missions where you first get to fly the Hippogriff and it's amazing But upon you doing this quest is not too far into the game. I mean just dependent on To be honest, I think it could be about halfway through I'm not exactly sure. I'm not exactly sure but hey This is where you get your first extra 15 slots added into those beast inventory slots. Simple as that Okay, so the second and third instances of you unlocking those beautiful bees slots Come from quest lines from deek My deek is the dude who you're introduced to not long well as you get the room of requirements Um, which is a quest line for professor Weasley when you do this You'll start getting quest lines for deek the first one called the the elf the nab sack and the loom This is where you are taught about going out into the open world And capturing these beasts and bringing them back to the vivarium with your nab sack And while I'm from this moment forward guys, you're you're free to do this You can farm these beasts and sell them, but everyone knows about this already But yes, this will progress deeks quest line for you Some of these are tied to the main story quest line though guys So if you finish one of these and the other one isn't popping up for you There's progress the main quest line Which can be tied to level requirements too. So keep that in mind But The last one for deek is called the phoenix rising. I mean you do the plight of the elf Plight of the house elf. You then do the phowler the dead. I'm actually sure which one of these comes in order But hey the phowler days where you're taught about breeding and you'll get to go and capture two festivals to breed them That's cool. Yeah, you'll then have the phoenix rising quest line This is where you're sent out To rescue this phoenix. It's part of a wicked story that deek tells you so yes And well, I got it just before but in the same the same mission It was literally just for I grabbed the phoenix But in this instance you get a plus 10 Extra slots and you'll see this on screen now. So that's pretty cool guys Okay, so the third unlock comes from a quest line called which is further up here sandbakers trial So within this trial guys you have you well need the assistance of a grab horn Ain't gonna ruin the mission for anybody But a grab horn is the final match you get in the game And yes, as you've guessed it guys these extra b slots are tied to your mounts Uh, so yeah But within this this is actually right away guys. This is probably one of the last missions in the game Like third from the end I believe So yeah, well within this mission you have you need the assistance of the grab horn the lord of the shore And upon you going and well getting him and you'll see the sunscreen now You get your third and final Beast slots so you'll have a total now of a fifth the plus So yes guys pretty cool pretty cool indeed And well it really is as simple as that you more or less have to just progress the game Get your mounts and you are good Well two mounts and one is obviously the uh the phoenix, which I wish you could fly that'd be absolutely incredible Moving fire and ship that'd be absolutely badass. But hey, but yeah guys those beast in which the slots are tied to uh The phoenix the hippogriff as well as the grab horn and there we have it guys guys If you enjoyed the video, leave a like who laps out We like what you see and want to see more hogwarts be sure to subscribe and hopefully guys I will see you on that next one
