And I realized at the minute I said it, but I wasn't going to take time to correct it. This was a real story. Well surely there's been somebody in the press to correct you, hasn't there? Sam was trying to persuade this director to do a picture for him, and the director told him why it would be a lousy picture, that he just couldn't be associated with it. It was a lousy screenplay and so forth. And so he didn't do it. Well Sam went ahead and made the picture with someone else, and it was lousy, and it was a big flop. And some time later they were talking another picture, and someone brought up the first director's name as a possibility, and Sam said, no, he's associated with my greatest failure. Ready? Yes, I'll give you one minute, and I think you don't want any more than that. No, that'll be fine. Mr. President, we've been listening to the expressions of congressional concern over our policy in Central America, reading some of the public opinion polls that suggest some public reservation about our policy there. Are you charting an unpopular course? Are you going to get what you want in terms of aid for that part of the world? Well I hope so, and I think it's absolutely vital to this country and to the world that we do. But I think what explains the possibility of it being unpopular is a lack of knowledge in the part of people, of where the area is. It's a strange thing, but people are so familiar with the Middle East and the other trouble spots in the world, and it's hard for them to realize that here in Central America, as I pointed out the other night, closer to us than many cities that are in the continental United States are to the capital of the United States. And it is vital. It is most important because Nikolai Lenin a long time ago targeted Latin America as literally the final step in the assault on capitalism, which he said would find its last bastion in the United States. And today, when you stop to think that the Soviet Union is putting 15 percent of its total military aid worldwide into Latin America, and we're only putting 2 percent of the aid that we're giving worldwide in Latin America. You don't accept the notion that this is a homegrown revolution. This is part of an East-West conflict then in your judgment. There's no way to escape that, but let me also say this about Latin America and Central America, these countries. There's no question about the history of these countries being one that is contrary to ours in that you had a society of a top layer and then a bottom layer in poverty, social injustices. El Salvador has a very violent history and a half a century of military rule over the people. And finally, however, El Salvador, the revolution has taken place. You have a government now that submitted a year ago to an election, and more than 80 percent of the people turned out to vote in that election, even though the guerrillas destroyed hundreds of trucks and buses to keep them from getting to the polls, threatened them with death, told them if they tried to vote they would be murdered. But the people turned out to vote. And so you can say here is a government that was chosen by the people. In addition to that, this government is moving as fast as it can to reverse the course of decades and decades and institute human rights and democratic procedures. We had a team of congressmen, it wasn't ours, I mean a team of our Congress, both parties went down as observers in that election. They came home with such stories that you can't imagine of the people, the sacrifice they made to vote. I told in the air about the woman wounded by the guerrillas who refused to leave the line for medical treatment until she had voted. But they told another thing I didn't mention on the air. And that is that every time the press that is stationed down there and have been covering this revolution went by, the people in mass would chant, tell the truth. Now what do we have? We have guerrillas trained in Cuba, trained in Nicaragua, backed and armed by the Soviet Union and Cuba, as a matter of fact many of their weapons are American weapons that came all the way from Vietnam. They were weapons that we abandoned in Vietnam and the communist government of that country by way of the other communist bloc nations brought them in for the guerrillas. And so we're trying to bring about the kind of revolution that has been taking place in Central America. Costa Rica today is one of the most solid democracies. They don't even have an army. Honduras has gotten rid of military rule and gone democratic. Guatemala the same thing is happening. What we need to see in all of America is this turn to democracy. And I've had a dream since before I came here, this job. The western hemisphere is so unique. We all have a common heritage. We all came mainly from European stock to these great undeveloped continents. From the South Pole to the North Pole, there are basically only two languages, with the exception of Brazil and the Portuguese language, it's either Spanish or English. From pole to pole, unlike any place else in the world, we worship the same God. Six hundred million people with the great still untapped resources of these two great continents. What a power for good in the world if we could become equal partners and neighbors. Where else in the world do you have a situation with all these various countries and all their own culture and all that? But they can cross a border into another country, here in this hemisphere, and they're still among Americans. We are all Americans. Does it bother you that you have to certify, as you will again next month, that there is improvement in the human rights condition in El Salvador? It bothers me because we're running the risk of being very insulting. We have a heritage we have to overcome in Latin America of the days of gunboat diplomacy. They remember that, and this is why these people who think that we're in danger of sending troops into a place of that kind, no, our best friends don't want them. They don't want a reawakening of that type of thing, of a Yankee imperialism, as they called it many decades ago. But it bothers me in the sense that we're helping all we can. They've gone for land reform. They've gone for elections. They're going to have another election before this year is out to elect a presidential election. And they're doing all the things that spell democracy down there. One of the other areas, in addition to free elections that are the hallmark of democracy, are also the notion of dialogue, of talk of negotiation. And we have not encouraged the government of El Salvador very much to engage in negotiation with the guerrillas. Yes, we have. And as a matter of fact, they have put together an amnesty commission. Here's where the difference lies in some of the people, even here in our own government, that are talking negotiation. What they're talking is what we did in Laos many years ago, in which we forced the government of Laos to take the path at Laos, the guerrillas there, which were communists supported and backed, and bring them into the government without the permission of the people. And pretty soon the path at Laos was the government of Laos. Now this is the kind of negotiation they're talking. These people, 80% of them turn out to vote. They have a right to expect that any people brought in to the government will come in by the electoral process, submit themselves to the voters. So what they're offering down there is amnesty to the guerrillas, lay down their guns, come in and participate, run candidates for their viewpoint, whatever it may be. But what some others are urging is that a negotiation take place in which the elected government of El Salvador allow these people at the point of a gun to simply come in and claim a share of government without the vote of the people. Mr. President, at your most recent news conference you were asked about Nicaragua and about establishing our relations with Nicaragua, and you said, when they quit meddling in the affairs of a neighbor whose government was duly elected, a legitimate government I believe was the term you used, critics of your policy will suggest that that's precisely what we're doing when we continue supplying support for the countries who are to some extent publicly trying to overthrow the government of Nicaragua. Well, a brief history I think is in here, and I'll try to make it as brief as I can. I realize I'm giving long answers to these questions. Nicaragua had a very authoritarian one-man government under Samosa. Granted, that government was friendly to the United States. But when finally the people rose up in a revolution, and this was during the Carter administration, the United States did not lift a finger in behalf of the Samosa government. And the Organization of American States even recommended to Samosa that he step down, that he resign, which he did. And the revolutionary government promised democracy, elections by the people, human rights, freedom of the press, freedom of religion, all of these things. Then when the government got in, very reminiscent of Castro's takeover of Cuba. There was a Soviet representative, and Castro of Cuba was present. They openly hailed this new Nicaragua now as the first implantation of communism on the mainland of the Americas. And the leaders who were in charge professed that the Soviet and Cuba, those were the allies, and that the other countries of Central America were to be the next places for this kind of revolution. Now in doing so, of great many people and factions had come together in that revolution. This group, like the Pathet Laos, ousted all of those. Some were even imprisoned, but others were just exiled and had to get out of the country. The guerrillas in this case are those exiled revolutionaries, who really all they want is a restoration of the promises that the Sandinistas made to the Organization of American States that they wanted democracy. They have now totalitarianism of communist nature, and they immediately set out, they are directing the revolution in El Salvador. They're providing the arms, they're providing the training for all of that. But when that government first got in, under the previous administration, our country immediately went to them with financial aid, with help believing that we were supporting a government similar to the government of El Salvador. And President Carter withdrew that aid when they discovered that they had not only broken their pledge about democracy, they had broken their pledge to us that they would not support the revolution, the communist attempt of revolution in El Salvador. Now how can they, doing what they're doing to overthrow a duly elected government, protest when the people that are now rebelling in their own country against them were revolutionaries themselves and who only want the promises of the revolution kept? So what we have said, and we continue to try and meet with them, we have said to the Sandinistas to that government, look we stand by ready to deal with you bilaterally if you'll quit doing this and return to what the revolution was all about. So I don't think there's anything, if there's any strangeness at all, it is that this government by the point of a gun which turned against its own people is now trying to overthrow a duly elected government. On that basis, should we not seek to overthrow that government openly rather than covertly? Well, of course we have laws with regard to that, but what our main purpose was in helping our friends down there, and when our friends, I mean other countries, Costa Rica, Honduras, Guatemala, and also, if you might say harassment of the Nicaraguan government was, that it is through Nicaragua and from Nicaragua that the weapons are going to the guerrillas in El Salvador and we're trying to interdict and cut off that supply. We've had our ships in the bay, we've built that radar facility for surveillance, we've helped the Contras, but we haven't shown any arms that we have recovered in the last year and a half. Are we interdicting arms? I think there has been some, but the interdiction is being done by the Salvadorans themselves. On the other front that has now been opened up along the border with Costa Rica, Pastora's group have told us that while they're not professing to interdict weapons, their purpose is to take Managua. They insist they have been offered support by the CIA for that. Would that be illegal? All I can tell you is that the oversight commission on intelligence activities, that's the citizens, the civilian group that was established some several years ago during the Ford administration that is to oversee and make sure that never again do any of our intelligence agencies do anything that violates our laws. They told me the other day that they have thoroughly investigated and that everything that we are doing down there is within the law and I have not violated the law at all. President, for those who have the hope that harmony can be returned to the hemisphere, can you give them encouragement this evening, particularly those 250,000 Salvadoran refugees who are in Los Angeles tonight? Yes, although the continued attempts at interference on the part of some of the committees in the Congress are making it difficult, they have finally voted the funds, not all that we'd asked for. It's a mere pittance that we're actually putting up down there in support. We need more and we need to be allowed to further train the Salvadoran Army so that it can compete with these professionally trained soldiers. As I said in the air in that broadcast, they are not peasants with muskets. These are professionally trained guerrilla fighters and incidentally, let me point out also what Nicaragua is doing. When I said we were trying to help our friends in Costa Rica and Honduras, remember that they have radical groups and guerrillas supported by Nicaragua that are sniping at them, not in the proportion and in the sense that it's going on in El Salvador, but they have their guerrilla wars. So there's not much hope that we're going to have harmony in the hemisphere where Nicaragua is concerned in. And yet Nicaragua, unlike Cuba, all they could stop right now and alter their course. The Seven Man Council that has been formed in opposition to the Nicaraguan government is made up of a number of people who were actually imprisoned by Samosa, which I think proves their democratic leanings. And they were part of the Sandinista revolution but were cast aside because they weren't communist. And you're reaching out to Nicaragua to try to establish that kind of a force? We've done that. We've let them know over and over again. And there apparently is no communication of that kind with them. Thank you, Mr. President. How is that for accepting a cue, huh? I know, I filibustered there on a few questions but I was trying to cover all bases. Did we get enough of it in? I think so. Yeah. That's an amazing thing. The Los Angeles now, I guess, has the biggest colony of El Salvadorans outside of the country itself. 250,000. 250,000. And they probably entered illegally across the Mexican border. In fact, virtually all of them.


The World Athletic Championship Trials taking place at the Samoa-Wemudia Stadium in Benin. The State that is ending tomorrow in the State, the Deputy Governor of the State, Philip Shuaibu, has assured endurance and all sports stakeholders that the state is ready to take a position as number one sports state in the country. The Deputy Governor also commanded the Athletic Federation for bringing back the national trials in the state. The world record holder in the 100 meters oldest Toby Amoson says she is excited to be back to Nigeria to win. We are happy as a state to be hosting this trials for the second time and we continue to improve on the facility because this is what we want. Like the President was saying now talking with Toby saying this is all grown. You can see how she is down to earth and she is speaking our language. She is doing everything. It's not that I want to garner and all of the stuff. So we are happy and excited and as a state we continue to support athletes supposed to improve on the facility but the facility is key to their performance. So we are happy to host them for the second running, second year. All coaches that you see today after 100 you must see about 70 are from a new state. Not really a new indigenous but all of them this is where sports started. Bend State has been home of sport and Benicity has been the headquarters of sport. But Gomer went on recess and we are bringing it back. So like we are bringing sport to his native land and that's why we build this facility and we use the 20th National Sports Festival to relaunch ourselves back. And there are lots of facilities that we built. We are majoring in 18 sports and those sports within this facility they are the state of the arts facility. This track is not one track you can see anywhere in Nigeria. And just like the handball we have a lot of facilities and only in the state presently you have a wave less swimming pool. So aquatic, handball, all of the other events are taking place here. Today you are having the national handball going on and the national trier and next week at the upper week we are expecting the aquatic federation to also come. So we are bringing everybody back and the goal is to continue to have the likes of Mosul and others to break records and make Nigeria proud and for them to leave their dream to the fullest. All thanks to my maker. The goal is to just take it's rest at the time. I just flew in from Stockholm last night. Disaster but I can tell people it's business so I have to show up for work. Nigeria is home for me so anytime duty calls back here I gotta show up. It's just another opportunity for me to get a racing course. I was injured pretty bad and I didn't get as much races as I want to get and you know I had the opportunity to come here and run at the nationals so I just have to show up.

Welcome back to the channel. In today's video, I'm going to show you how I customize my visual studio code to make it look like what I want it to do. And I'm doing this because a number of people have been asking me what editor do you use and how do you make it look like the way it is. So if you do not have visual studio code or if this is your first experience with it or if it's something that you regularly use but want to make it look a little bit better and help you code up faster what for your WordPress, then this is the video for you. So first of all, we need to go to Microsoft and we'll get visual studio code which we shall customize in the next few seconds. You can do this by going to Google and searching for visual studio code and then you'll go to the download and then you can choose the appropriate version for you. For example, mine is a Mac and it's still using an Intel chip. If you're using something like the new Mac M1, then you would need to get something like the silicone version or you can get it for Windows or Linux and then download that version and then install it in whatever way you do it or your system. So after downloading and installing the program, then we can continue customizing your visual studio code for your WordPress development. So the first thing that I do is I always come to the extensions icon right here and then I'll search for particular extensions that I'm interested in. For example, I want to get bracket, bracket per colorizer and what this allows you to do is that it will change your code to start looking in a very funky way. For example, if you have a number of closing and opening brackets, this will be properly be fitted. So I'll install this. So I'm going to get a little project that I'm going to drop in my visual studio code. When I open up the code, you'll be able to see that this opening bracket and the closing are both yellow. And when I go deeper into my code level, you will see that this opening and this closing are purple. So let's say I had an if statement in here. You'll be able to see that this is going to become blue and it allows me to read my code. For example, when the code is nested. So that makes my work really, really easy. The next extension that I always want to install after bracket per colorizer is one that I built myself. It's called classic press snippets and auto completion. And I'm going to install that right here. And what this plugin does is that it has so many auto completions that I use on the daily. For example, if I want to have a WP query, all I need to do is write WP query and it will give me a full completion of what's expected here. So if I want to start writing a new plugin and I've opened up my PHP, I'll just type start plugin. And then you'll see that it gives me all the comments that I need to start my plugin. If I want to do an action, add action, you will see that it gives me all the things that I need the tag, the function to add the priority and the accepted tags. So this eventually allows me to write code that's not going to break the WordPress standard, but also allow me to see what's expected, what's going to come back if in the event that I'm writing my WordPress. The next plugin that I use or rather not plugin is I don't like this whole look of VS code. And the good thing with VS code is that it comes with what we call as theming. So in my themes, the next thing that I do, I'll look for cobalt 2 and I'm going to see it here. This is the theme that's written by Westboss for those who love JavaScript. He's one of those guys who really do well in teaching it. So I'll install cobalt 2 theme and that's going to change everything. I like the contrast of the blue with the white because blue is my favorite color. So I'll just turn on the cobalt 2 and that will allow my theme of my editor to look like this big blue and nice. Very easy to the eye so that I'll be able to see my code right here. When I reduce this box, you'll be able to see that my code looks nice. I can be able to do a couple of things if I want to write a function. I'll give it a name and say take a press and you see that it's now starting to separate everything for me. Then I'll know that I'm inside the function or I'm outside. So that's how I theme and color my VS code. The next thing that I do is that I get rid of this little minimap here. So I go to view right here and I will say turn off the show minimap. So I have more or less stage to write code that goes all the way onto that side. The next thing that I do is that I try to make sure that I'm not going to go always going in and reducing my font and doing all of that. So what I'm going to do is go into my settings and go into the settings here and you see that it usually gives you a UI to use. So in here I can look for the font. So if I say font, I'll be able to go to click the font in the text editor and I can increase my size to 16 and if I go to the settings that Jason write here I can actually be able to see what's going on. So I can change this to 16 so that I can see my code as I type it. If I change this to 18 and save you will see that this increases my size as well. So I'm going to duplicate this line. So I'll copy it and paste it and then I'm going to change I'll change this to line height by typing line height. So I'll change this to line height and the line height that I want to do is going to be 23. So when I save this you'll see that the spacing in between my code is actually reducing. Now I'm going to go back to the settings so that I can see this visually though I can do a lot more that side and I'm going to change this to Fira code. Fira code is one of those fonts that I really love so you will see that it's starting to change the way this is looking. I'll change it to 25 and you will see that there is a nice letter in here in that when I go to my code I can visibly see everything clearly and neatly. So you can choose your own font make sure that font is installed on your computer that's why I'm using Fira code right here but you can use any font that you feel like is always going to look nice for you.  You will see this a lot more in my code. I also install the intelligence. The intelligence helps you to figure out let's say you have a function and you want to use it in your code. It will allow you to pick it from somewhere and then it will automatically fill in and show you all these things. So if you've used something like TypeScript this is what the PHP intelligence allows you to do in that when you have stored a variable you can actually call it back and see it. The next thing that I install is PHP.blocker because that's going to help me write very nice documentation. So for example with this function let's say I was returning something in here and I was returning let's say dog in here. I need to set that I have a dog in here so I'm going to say the dog is going to equal to cow. Let's say that's my function that returns dog. When I'm writing comments in my code and use this slash and then add two dots if I press enter you're going to see that this dog blocker will automatically pick for me what is returning what is the function. It gives you something to kick on and start with. So let's say I also had a dog in here as a variable that I was passing. So let's change this. I'm going to do the slash add my two dots press enter. You will see that it shows me that there is a parameter that I'm expecting called dog and then I can start writing good documentation with my functions. So PHP.blocker is a good one. It would be good for you to also have dog blocker. So having dog blocker will allow you to actually add simple comments in anything. Let's say you're using JavaScript. It will also allow you to add the same kind of thing that I'm experimenting and having here inside your JavaScript. So dog blocker is also a good extension to have the next extension that I use is the one for wukamas. So I'm going to use a wukamas snippets collection and this is by Cloud Sanchez. He's one of the big authors and contributors to wukamas and so I installed it because it will help me work with my wukamas functions. I think you've sometimes seen some things on the channel here and you're wondering where is he getting that from? But that is simply because I have that. So let's say I was writing wukamas and I want to get a function called wc get account downloads. You'll see that I already have it in there. I have the right name. Let's say I want to get wukamas and you'll see that I'm already having a number of things in here. So let's say I want to add cut item. You'll see that I already have it and I know what it's going to do. So as I type item, you'll see that this actually explains what this is. It's a filter and I can use it as a filter. So I will know I need to wrap this inside quotes and then add filter right here. Of course open up my brackets. Add this filter and then add a function here that's going to do a b c d and then of course close this as well. So you can see that these functions actually help me so many times to do the right thing. You'll see my editor is shouting at me because I forgot to add a semicolon here. So you will see everything actually comes out and works well. Now my php intelligence is telling me we do not understand this add action right here. And if I had my word press opened up in here, you'll be able to see that it automatically picks everything that I have. So I'm going to get my folder that has this file. If I drop it here in the folder section to open up, you'll see that as I navigate and go down into my editor and then I go into my plugin section and then I look up this currency file right here. You will see that we no longer have those shouting at us. So it's a good way to know that you actually have this existing thing inside your code and you're using it properly. And you can see that the intelligence is already telling me that this is a function that expects a number of things. It's a hook that you have and it's hoping you do so many other things. If I look at this, I missed an L. So all I need to do is add the L and this is going to change to a filter. So these are the things that allow me to do my word press development much, much easy. Now you'll actually see down here that some extensions are being recommended for you. PHP debug is a good one as you become more of an advanced developer. You can also look at PHP CS that will help you to do coding standards that are PHP based or if you want to get something like word press coding standards inside your code, it would be a good one for you to install. So I can also add the debugger so that I can use it to do like some of the things it's doing right here. The other thing that I'm going to do is just turn off this PHP CS for a while. I'll disable it and reload my editor so that it stops throwing messages like this for me. So the other thing that I do inside my phone settings is that I want to turn on ligatures. So I'm going to go here and say ligature and then I'm going to edit this by going in the JSON and what I'm going to do right here is actually turn this to true, save this and when I come back in my code here and let's say I want to write an arrow function, you'll see that this is properly wrapping into an arrow even if I was using the two equal signs and add a greater than sign, you'll see that it automatically makes for me the arrow and so these allow you to write very nice and beautiful code. Let's say you want to do this in here, you'll see that you're starting to write code and it looks really nice. If you want to have equal signs, you have two equal signs three signs that allows you to do that. If you want to say not equal to, you can have it like that not equal to and not of the net same type. You'll see that it's giving you something that looks nice and neat like this. So ligatures are really good. Those I add in because I have Fiora code installed as my font family. So I would advise you to use Fiora code and also turn this on to make it easier for your eyes as you read your code. So there are other plugins that I use like when I am writing Elemental widgets, you'll see another snippets that I've started to write which I'm going to install as well. If you write with SCF as a plugin, you can also get the SCF snippets which is really really good so that you can have things like this in your code to get filled and do all of that. I'll close this down and then one of those things that I cannot do away with is that before I was using BS code I was using sublime and I like the key value bindings that you do have. I'm going to look for sublime right here and then I'm going to look for the text came up and settings impota I'll install that. I'll switch on yes here and you'll see some of the fun things that I can do with this is that I can press Command Shift and D to duplicate this over and over and over again. I can use my Command Shift and the left button to select the downline. I can use this to select all the way up Command Shift up or I can start from here Command Shift down delete everything so it allows me to do so many things quickly just using my keyboard without using my mouse. So sublime key text map is really really good. It also helps you to do so many things. So if you would like to see more of these videos please let me know in the comments section or if you have any questions about any extensions that you use or you can let me know the extensions that you use. Maybe there is something I'm missing out and I really really need to have a chance at looking at and then doing. So let me know in the comments.
