Testing, testing, still haven't attached to my mic. Testing, testing, testing. Testing the testicles, testicle testing. Hey, welcome back to our Stupid Direct Seats with Cormac. I'm Rick. And you can follow us on Instagram, Twitter for more juice content. Thanks to Patreon, follow us through the accounts, subscribe if you haven't, hit the like button. Hi, Patreon, you know who you are. Hi, how are you? Anyways, today a new teaser dropped. I believe it was sometime last night. This is the one that matters. Not the, what's the thing with Gosling? Shadow Man, Shadow. Gray Man. Gray Man, it's actually doing well out here. Yeah, I haven't watched it yet. Yeah, I haven't seen it either. It's on Netflix, I mean. But yeah, the initial response to it has been positive. At least that's what Variety in the Hollywood reporter is saying.  If you watched the Gray Man. But this is called Vathi, teaser, Dhanush and, forgive us, Samyuktha. Is that right? That is all I know. I don't know anything other than that outside if it's a Dhanush. Da! One of the coolest names I think. I agree. It's a cool name. It's a very cool name. Dhanush. Dhanush. I've never heard it before, obviously before. We started the channel. Maybe it's a very common name, I don't know. But I just think it's like really unique. I agree.  Better than Corbin. Maybe you don't hear a lot of Indians name Corbin though. No. Maybe after OSR. That's true. There's people naming their boys Corbin and there's one, there's one person naming their girl Corbin. Oh yeah. Here we go. Bottom of the feet hitting, man. More fish, more education. This is what I'm looking for now. The best teachers in our school are the ones who will come to us if the government schools are unstocked. The third grade junior teachers.  Balamurugan. Oh, oh. The educational institute, right? Junior teacher. Studying is like a festival. Oh. Like a feast at a hotel. Don't leave.  That's right. He is teaching how to open up a can.  That was a good teaser. It was a teaser. I didn't know he's just a teacher though. No, but it's really strange. It's like on the one hand, we're getting all of these things about like, he's, you know, dead poet society, Robin Williams. He's a teacher who's going to be influencing people. And then the other hand, he's just flat out kicking, smashing, hitting everybody, which was actually an attribute that I liked about myself as a teacher was the combination of being able to speak to the next generation and kick the ass of the current one. But yeah, it looked, I thought it looked really cool. Music was really nice too.  What more do you need? That, that should be the log line, by the way.   Let's see, hold on. 2000, what was it called again, Vothy, right? No, no, what year is it? Right, it's 2022 right now. Korean man, Vodachanai II, is it Maran? No. No, odd. Why is it not on his IMDb?  Yeah, it does. I don't know who they have doing credits outside of the US and Great Britain, but they're not up to date. Anyways, education is more than about books, marks, and results. The right mix of chalk and challenges can shape a future generation.  Maybe. I just feel like there's no way he's just a teacher. Well heck no.  Yeah exactly. So he's like an agent or an undercover agent. Maybe he's protecting a kid that's there? I don't know. Vathi or Sir is an upcoming Telugu Tamil bilingual film written by, written and directed. Yeah, by Venki Atluri. Music is G.V. Prakash Kumar and cinematography is J. Yuvraj. And that's all we got. Or was he a teacher or was he a student? Like a college student. Good question. Oh, he does come out of the, okay. So. Yeah, I thought he was a teacher. He looks like a, I'm a junior lecturer. A junior lecturer at an educational institute. You know what I would say about Dinoosh? He does have a very young face. Yes he does. Because he's older than I am, right? I think so. Yeah. Probably 38. Yeah. He's got a baby face. Which that's phenomenal for most of your life but it really doesn't help you when you're in your teens. He's 39 years old. Yeah, looking young is really great when you hit 40 and above. He can also play, because like, look, in the gray man I'm pretty sure he has the beard. Just like me, if you take the beard off of me, D ages me like 20 at 10 years. It's true. Like I go from looking my age 30, I could be like mid 30s to like, now I could be a play a 20, 21 year old without the beard. It's kind of insane. But yeah, he has one of those young faces. I thought the teaser looked really cool. So I'm guessing once the trailer comes out we'll learn a little more. Yeah, do we have a release date? I didn't see it at the end. If it was there, I completely blanked and missed it. Nope. Nope, nope, no, sir, sir, sir, sir, sir. But I've no doubt it's gonna be a theatrical release. Yeah. With Denouche. With Denouche. Starring, yeah. Anyways, let us know what you thought about the teaser and what should be our next Denouche film that we should watch down below.

All right, what's up welcome back to my channel now if it's your first video you've ever watched at this point I have over 500.  You are on the right video. All right. You're on the right page Make sure to subscribe if you have not done that yet Today I'm gonna show you three questions. You should ask yourself Alright, and when you do this, you will be able to watch your business improve daily Right, it will improve daily if you do these things and let's get straight into it All right, first thing that you need to know every time I play that intro It always has my phone number there Every single day coaches reach out to me. They ask questions about how to grow their business I normally set up zoom calls with coaches.  I ask you questions. I see what you're doing I see what you need help with and I'll try to offer some insight I think it's valuable. A lot of coaches is that I've had that call with This calls go great. So message me whenever you want Monday through Friday. All right Don't do it at night. Don't do it on the weekends because I won't respond. All right So let's get into these three questions. So the first question that This is just you as a coach. All right, so let's not even think about your business Let's just think about you as a coach. All right and write this down. It is what can I do as a coach? to better serve my clients Right a lot of coaches that are in this business They don't ask that question to themselves. They're always thinking well How can I just grow my business? How can I get a higher volume of clients? How can I be more profitable? How can I be more successful? They're not keeping a close eye on their current clients and they're not trying to actively improve The customer experience. So what can you do to better serve your clients? All right, and I'm not gonna sit here and try to give you 5,000 different ways of how you can improve that right if you do your research on this channel You'll find multiple ways to improve your relationship improve your service All those things are already there right But that is a huge question to start with and that is something you should ask yourself at the end of every week Every Friday just have an alarm that goes off. All right And that goes off at 3 p.m. And it get it prompts you to Ask yourself this question so you can reflect on that week and say, you know what I Can do this this and this and I need to implement this by Monday And if you do that every week your business gets better, right by doing that one thing and I see it too often as coaches grow their business Their their clients go like this as far as the amount of clients that they have and their customer service is going like this It gets worse and worse and that's because they don't have systems in place They don't have high expectations for their clients They don't ultimately have a good service and it's easy to lose track of clients because the service isn't isn't quality It's not at a high level So this is one of those things, you know when you ask yourself that question, right? You're forced to like stop what you're doing and just be like gosh I need to improve and what can I get better at and challenge yourself because no one's going like at the end of day Your clients aren't gonna say yeah Let's have a meeting every Friday and reflect on how your week went and here's the three things You need to change about your business clients are not gonna do that All right, you need to do it yourself and that's good for you as just a coach All right, and that bleeds into your business, right? So as a coach you should do that if you have a staff of coaches, I would have a weekly zoom meeting For 15 minutes and be like hey guys like here's a couple ideas that I have that I feel like we can implement going into Monday So we can improve and get better. What ideas do you guys have? Right, so as a unit Every week you're improving your business If you have a team of coaches if you don't if you're doing it by yourself Ask yourself that question, right? doing that for five minutes is going to Ultimately like make your customer experience a thousand times better. All right long-term and your business will follow Like you're you're going to end up making way more money in your business if you have a better product and you have better service Right, that's number one Number two All right, this is a fundamental question a lot of coaches don't ask themselves because a lot of coaches don't like to Market they don't like to sell and here's what the question is. It is what can I do as a business owner? To get more clients Right now at the time that this video is going out.   You will get so many new clients if you go through a new product it's called 44 ways to get new clients and one of those ideas just one of them was responsible for Three of my top clients that I worked with last year It that one idea generated right around 250,000 dollars of sales for them, right? So it's a no-brainer to go through that program invest in yourself Those are ideas that work for any coach And there are so many different tactics and strategies to get clients But if you don't ask yourself that question, what can I do to get more clients? Well?  What are some new ways I can market myself to? Build more authority in my area. How can I get more parents or more coaches or more people to know like and trust me? So I can get more clients Alright, that's a question.  All right. That's the second question the third one. All right This is such a great question to ask yourself. It's are my clients really getting results and If so, how can I track it better? Right now here's what I mean So for me like I'm a soccer trainer. You don't know that.  What are they doing when they're not with me to show me what you know What they're doing on their own? How can I track results with them to make sure that I know what we're doing is actually working? Right and the the money that their parents are investing in my program Like it's a good investment. Like how do I know that? Well, it comes down to systems It comes down to tracking it comes down to accountability. There are a lot of different little moving pieces there But if you don't know how to track your clients results Then two things happen number one There's gonna be drop-off in your program because parents are paying you for results. Nothing else. All right That's the first thing the second is Because there's gonna be people that leave you always have to replace them and it's like this rat race of having clients leave replacing them with someone else and there's no long-term Clients is staying your program because there's no results, right now if you are able to track your results, right? Your clients obviously that's what they want. All right They're gonna give you way more referrals and number three that helps you stand out amongst any competition That's in your area because I can assure you Coaches that are competitors in your area are not tracking results, right? And if you're part of my Consulting program like I'm going to be releasing something that is In my mind it's going to be like the most copied thing in this industry For the years to come because I know when when a coach implements that into their business their email track everything from a to z Their clients are gonna have a better experience because of the how everything is tracked and There's gonna be a lot of reporting everything's gonna be automated I haven't been in the process of developing this over the past six months now And you know what like what I've noticed is because I track those things my clients get better They get better results and they refer more clients and if my business is operating that way I should be getting more clients all the time just from word of mouth. That's without even marketing Right. So again, let me repeat these three questions. What can I do as a coach to better serve my clients as number one? Number two, what can I do as a business owner to get more clients if you're struggling to get new clients? Go check out my new program 44 ways to get new clients if you just do one of those Right one of those ideas You will get probably get a lot of clients. All right, and there's 43 other ones outside of those one outside of the one Number three are my clients getting Results and how can I track it better?  And it's that simple like and this is why you know I see a lot of coaches struggle in this area because like they're just focusing on training clients and they're spending all day long Just training just training over and over and over all right. That's all they do They don't have time to sit back and look at well our kids actually developing How do we know that they're getting better? Are they playing better in their games? How do we know that they're playing better in the games? Like what's the community communication like between you and the parent you and the kid? All right, there's a lot of little details in there and when coaches don't have those systems in place Those clients often leave. All right, and I like I said it becomes this rat race over and over and over You're getting a new client Someone else goes out like and it's you can't grow your business that way. It's physically impossible. Right physically impossible so if you want to have systems in place you want to Be able to track things you want to have a better service with your clients and You want strategies to get more clients right reach out to me? All right? I'm gonna post my phone number. It's gonna pop up right behind right above my head Or to the left of my head So just text me at that number right text me there Monday through Friday I will get back to you and I will set up a call. All right.  We'll talk on zoom. I don't do phone calls I'm very picky with how I talk to people. It's all done on zoom. I record every call I'll send me back the call if you want And that's how I can see how it can help you, right? I can't help every single coach I know that like my ego is very small. I cannot help every single person I can only help those who are serious and committed about actually helping kids and creating great services So that's it for this video I hope this helps hit that subscribe button and shoot me a text if you want chat


The more global warming humans cause, the greater the chance that we'll trigger some really damaging consequences. Scientists don't know at exactly what point various impacts will be triggered. However, based on past climate changes and what we've seen in recent years, they can estimate what we'll see in the coming decades. So far, the Earth's average surface temperature has warmed almost one degree Celsius since the Industrial Revolution. Some significant adverse impacts are expected by the time we reach 1.5 degrees Celsius surface warming above pre-industrial temperatures. For example, that amount of global warming will worsen the problem of widespread coral mortality that we're already beginning to see. Hundreds of millions of people will be at risk of increased water stress and more damage from droughts, heat waves, and floods. There will continue to be increased species extinction rates. However, by and large, these are impacts that we should be able to adapt to at a cost but without disastrous consequences. Once we surpass 2 degrees Celsius, those impacts will become even worse and new impacts will be triggered. Coastal flooding will impact millions of people, coral bleaching will be widespread and exacerbated by ocean acidification. Most coral reefs may not survive. Global food crop production will decline with the possibility of major famines. Sea levels arise by close to 1 meter by 2100. Up to 30% of global species will be at risk of extinction. 2 degrees Celsius is used in international climate negotiations as the danger limits. It's a guardrail we don't want to pass because it represents such dangerous potential consequences. At 3 to 4 degrees Celsius warming, corals are basically toasts. The damage to aquatic ecosystems will deplete our fisheries too. If global warming reaches this level, 40 to 70% of global species will be at risk of extinction. We'll be far down the path toward the Earth's 6 baths extinction at this point. Water retreats will threaten water supplies in Central Asia and South America. The possibility of significant releases of carbon dioxide and methane from ocean hydrates and permafrost could amplify global warming even further beyond our control. At this level of warming, sea level rise of 1 meter or more would be expected by 2100 and much more in the following centuries. The destabilization of the Greenland and West Antarctic ice sheets will become a major risk. If these ice sheets collapse into the ocean, it would cause much more sea level rise and flooding of coastal communities and farmland. Many of these impacts will lead to societal problems. For example, food and water scarcity and flooding can lead to economic damages, mass migrations, and violent conflicts. Once people move beyond denying the reality that the planet is warming and humans are causing it, the next stage of denial is belief that climate change isn't bad. We'll often cherry pick a few beneficial climate change impacts, ignoring the many dangerous and damaging consequences that I just discussed. There is uncertainty about just how soon these damaging climate impacts will hit. However, if we continue on our current path pumping billions of tons of carbon pollution into the atmosphere every year, we know we'll trigger these harmful climate consequences eventually. Climate change is ultimately a risk management issue. It's very much like smoking in that respect. The more cigarettes you smoke, the more you increase your risk of getting cancer. Most people value their health enough that they mitigate that risk by choosing not to smoke. We face the same choice with climate change. The more carbon pollution we pump into the atmosphere, the more we increase the risk of triggering dangerous and damaging climate changes. For example, coral reef loss, widespread species extinctions, and more damaging extreme weather, and the loss of coastal property sea level rise. We only have one earth and one climate. Although it makes for good science fiction, we're unlikely to have interstellar travel available within the next century. We won't be able to solve the problem by ditching the earth and moving to a new planet. To mitigate the risk associated with climate change, the solution is to consume less fossil fuels and pump less carbon pollution into the atmosphere. Just as with smoking, the more we reduce the consumption that is causing the problem, the better our chances of avoiding its dangerous consequences.


Today is July 1st. Today is a day that thousands of new doctors who just recently graduated medical school start their first day as physicians. July 1st is scary for many. It's scary for the new trainees. It is normal to question if you really learned enough to now take care of patients. It's scary for the experienced doctors and attendings who are now having to reset and remind themselves of the patients and guidance that will be required. And finally, it's scary for the patients as a new doctor may sound like a bad doctor, but it's not. Today also marks my third and final year of internal medicine training. And so in today's video, I want to share those lessons that I've learned for those of you who are about to start the journey, those of you who have been on the journey, and those of you who will one day also be in our shoes. Let's get to it. So lesson number one is to don't take your knowledge level too seriously. In medicine, it's very easy to feel too dumb because you don't know enough or to feel overly smart because you know a lot. And so this leads you to be on two sides of the spectrum of either looking like you have a lack of confidence or being extremely arrogant. Bone reality neither approaches ideal, nor is it the right way to look at it. Instead, think of medicine like growing a garden. At first you have nothing to show. You feel incompetent, but really you're just not experienced. But with time as you experience patients, situations, cases, and through your own learning, your seeds of knowledge get planted from both medical school as well as residency, and they also finally begin to show signs of life. And you start to notice, maybe you do know something after all. But as you begin to water more and more of your seeds, you also at times begin to focus on some of those old topics. And so while some knowledge will grow, some knowledge will also decay and die if you don't give it attention. But remember that this is okay because as you're watering more and more pieces of your knowledge over time, it's easier to acquire knowledge because you can use old pieces of information to better understand new things as well as old things that you may have forgotten a little bit stronger. But with that experience that knowledge you currently have will remain firm for a longer period of time. But that doesn't mean that you will always have that piece of knowledge. And it also doesn't mean that the things that you don't yet know won't possibly be something that you will one day in the future. It's an ever-evolving garden, and that's what makes learning medicine so beautiful. And so it's important to understand and embrace that as a brand new physician.   The only thing your patient cares is your ability to help them. And remember that your degree from medical school, wherever they may have been, is simply permission to do just that. But it doesn't determine the excellence at which you provide that service. And Ivy League education doesn't guarantee you the skills to interact with the art that goes with patient care, which combines knowledge, critical thinking, listening, creativity, and rapport to be successful. And on the flip side, graduating from a lower tier medical school doesn't exclude you from having these qualities either. Just remember that yes, July 1st represents your first day as your life as a physician. Your achievements got you here, but don't hang on them to continue to move forward. Next, remember the importance of both pattern recognition and rapport. There's a difference between a great clinician, a caring person, and a great doctor. Great clinicians can combine their knowledge, their experience, patient complaints, lab values, vitals, and put those together to have critical thinking to come up with both the diagnosis, as well as management. And over time, you will learn how to do this. A caring physician knows how to properly care, be sympathetic, be firm, and also remain confident in showing the patient that they care for them. But a great doctor combines both of these, rapport as well as pattern recognition to truly become successful. So it's important that you focus on both of these as you work with each and every one of your patients. And from personal experience and full disclosure, I've had patients who I thought I've had nothing to learn from. These will be patients who are given labels such as pain seekers, frequent fliers, as well as failure to thrive. And so while it may seem like you have nothing to learn from them, you're wrong. As one of my attendings once told me, you can always learn something from every single patient encounter. Sometimes you can learn about their disease. Sometimes you can learn about the patient. Sometimes you can learn about patient rapport. Sometimes you can learn about charting or interacting with other physicians, interacting with other intrapersonnel health care providers like nurses, PT staff, social work. Sometimes you develop those small skills like how to put an IV, how to work the monitor, how to run the IV pump, or how to get a patient discharged and make sure that they can afford their medications. Little pieces of nuance is that you never thought you would have to know as a doctor, but to truly become a great one, you do. And so remember that every patient is an opportunity for you to improve both your pattern recognition as well as your rapport with that individual patient. And so I urge you to stop looking at every patient like a simple math problem that you get bored of because you've seen so many times. Make their problem your problem and every patient will look like an opportunity that can also help you move forward. Next, it's important that you be aggressive with your self-care. Also from personal experience, burnout is real and burnout will happen to some degree to every one of you that's watching this video. And so it's important to not act like a superhero and watch out for yourself. We all know that if a plane is ever crashing, the first thing that you're told to do is to put on your oxygen first before you help others around you. In residency and as a physician, it's important that you help yourself first and so then you can properly help all your patients effectively. This means that you get your rest as much as you can. If that means you have to schedule days where you plan on getting more sleep to count for those days that you were shorted, do that. This also means that you make sure to move. Your job likely as a doctor is going to be much more mental than physical but make sure you use your own body. Next, it's important to remember that you need to energize and energize correctly. Being a doctor often is an excuse for excessive caffeine, carb, and quick processed foods.  Imagine how much more sharp and aware you could be if you could avoid those energy slumps from the decisions that you can easily avoid. And finally, focusing on some of those life skills that you will need but have been delayed because of your career choice as a physician, such as learning things like personal finance and investing. And finally, and probably the most impactful lesson that I've learned in two years of residency is to be comfortable being uncomfortable. I always remember this saying that progress happens at the other side of failure, so don't be afraid to fail. Now, that doesn't mean that you need to make risks with your patients and their own well-being, but that does mean that you can be creative and ask questions when you're not comfortable. But if you think in the regards of your patients' care that something is an option but you're not quite sure, ask the question versus not doing anything. Because in the future, that may be an option that you can turn to or learn that there was never something you should have considered. But regardless, that's a lesson that you've learned that has now helped you progress your knowledge as a physician. But this idea of being comfortable, being uncomfortable, really surrounds this idea of being a training because you're going to be working with other attendings, other fellow colleagues, and as you move up the ladder, you will also start to work with medical students and other people who have worked one year less than you, like me currently as a upper-level resident. And so while it may seem like you have to put this facade of looking like you know everything and not asking questions, not saying things in the fear of being wrong, understand that you are getting in the way of your own personal progress and the people that you think that are paying attention to your wrong answers never even noticed in the first place.  The more mistakes you make, the more connections you can reign for the long term. And that also means going into situations where you don't know everything you need to do because in all honesty, you never will. But you will know more if you actually put yourself in those situations. But those guys are some of my favorite tips and strategies and advice to brand new doctors. And I also want to say a big congrats to making it this far in your journey. This is a huge step.  But remember to truly make the most of your experience going forward. Remember some of the things that we talked about in this video and make the most of each and every patient encounter. And for those of you guys that may not be at this journey just quite yet, hold on to this video, save the link, put it somewhere that way you can come back to it, understand a few things because again, we learn more and we learn from the experiences of other people. I've made some of these mistakes that I've made in this video. I've made all of them actually. And so just to avoid making them as much as I have, enjoy the process a little bit more than I have.

Hey everyone, I've been on vacation this past week, went to Kauai, had some fantastic meals out, and one in particular is what I'm making today. I'm making some roasted vegetables. I've got gold potatoes, sweet potatoes, broccoli, carrots, beets, and it's served over a bed of homemade pesto sauce with a balsamic reduction drizzle. It was fantastic then, and it's fantastic today that I'm going to be making it for you. But before we get into the recipe, I just want to encourage you to subscribe to my channel because we're always cooking up something very delicious and healthy. That's my emphasis, so I don't want you to miss it, and we'd love to have you join us. Let's get started on our recipe. I've got my vegetables here, now here's how this is all going to work. We've got our vegetables, they're going to go in the oven, and they're going to roast for probably 35 to 40 minutes. At that time, then we're going to be making our balsamic reduction, now it'll take about 30 minutes, so those two things will be doing their own thing by themselves. They don't need too much attention from us, and while that's happening, we'll make our pesto sauce. So we're going to start with our veggies here. I've got my broccoli right over here that's already in floret size. The goal here is to cook everything, you know, have everything cook up at about the same rate. Now carrots and potatoes and beets take a little bit longer. I've got some asparagus here, which I didn't mention earlier. They're about less than pencil thickness, right? They're going to cook up very quickly, so I'm not going to put them on the pan until the last maybe 10, maybe 12 minutes before they're done cooking, so they don't take very much time. Alright, so let's, I've got my sweet potatoes already peeled. I'm not going to peel my gold potatoes because they're organic and I don't need to. I have a half of a bell pepper that I just happened to have in the fridge.  Now with our potatoes, like I said, I'm going to cut those, cut those into any size chunk that you want. Try and keep it uniform. If it's a half an inch, try and cut all the potatoes that size. So something like that. That way they'll cook up nice and even. So here's how I cut up the vegetables. Keep in mind when you're cutting up the beets, though, that they do stain, so be careful with that.  We've got our baking pan pretty full. We don't want to overcrowd it because we want these vegetables to roast, right? We don't want them to steam, so they're all touching the bottom of the pan. That's what you want. And now I'm just going to go ahead and drizzle on some olive oil. In the oven, like I said, it's preheated to 425 degrees. And don't forget you can get the whole recipe down below in the description of the video. So go ahead and sprinkle that on. Get some olive oil in there. Just coat it. Toss it with your hands. Coat everything. And then just sprinkle a little bit of salt over the top. Hold your hand high. It'll spread out a little more evenly that way. And that's good to go. This is ready to go. In the oven, let me spread this out a little bit. And we're going to start roasting this. And we'll set the timer for 20 minutes. We'll place it right there in the middle of the oven and set our timer. Now we're moving into our balsamic reduction. So we're going to take this as a very inexpensive brand of watery balsamic vinegar. As you can see, it just pours out like water. I have a whole video on how to do this very in-depth. So if you want that, you can. I've got this up to medium-high heat. And we're just going to cook it, bring it to a boil. Once it comes to a boil, we're going to let it simmer. We're going to reduce the heat and make sure it simmers for about 20 to 30 minutes or until it reduces by, you know, probably half to two-thirds. Then it's going to thicken up and the flavors are going to intensify. It's going to get sweeter and it's just going to be more vibrant. So you can see now that the balsamic is starting to simmer on medium heat. And we're going to let that go for, like I said, 20 to 30 minutes. Now right next to my balsamic reduction, I've got another frying pan. I have a small frying pan here and I have it on medium-low heat. I've got three cloves of garlic you could do for. What we're going to do here for our pesto is I've left the skin on. You see that on the garlic? I haven't taken it off. That's going to protect it from burning. We're going to place these into a pan and we're going to rotate them over, you know, as it cooks and we want to brown them up and it's going to soften it up. And it's going to add so much flavor to our pesto, you're going to love it. It's going to mellow out that garlic. It won't have that harsh bite to it that it does when you use it raw. And it just is amazing. It's a great way to just get a lot of extra flavor into your garlic and into your dish. So we've got a lot of things going. We've got the vegetables in the oven. We've got our reduction here and we've got our garlic going over here. I'm going to turn that up just a little bit to get things moving and we're going to just continue to toast these. They haven't even gotten hot yet. That's why I'm touching them with my hands. All right, so here's our veggies after 20 minutes, you can get a look at these. You can see that broccoli is browning up really well. Okay, I'm going to put those back in for another, I'd say, five or six minutes. The broccoli is getting done a lot quicker. I think I'm going to throw the asparagus in there now. All right, broccoli needs to come out. So I'm going to take it out, place it in a dish, keep it warm. Now I coated the asparagus in oil so they're already, and salted them, they're already greased up and they'll just cook for a few more minutes. Now the garlic has softened up nicely. I can feel it. It's soft now. That's what you want. That's how you know it's roasted and done. It's good enough. So I'm going to take it out, place it on a dish to cool, and then we'll remove the rest of the skins once it gets cool. Now to this pan, we're going to add some raw walnuts, and we're going to toast those walnuts for more flavor. These are going to taste amazing, and this will only take a cup, you know, two, three minutes or so. I've got the temperature on medium heat. Our walnuts are pretty much done. You can see the brown spots there. I'm going to turn the heat off. I'm going to toss them into my dish with the garlic. Okay, so our vegetables are done. It's been about 30 minutes total, and you can test them, you know, make sure your potatoes are done. Those are certainly done. Carrots, good. Beets, everything's good. So back to our reduction, our balsamic reduction. You can see it's really dropped down. It's reduced quite a bit, and it's thickened up a bit. I can tell it's much more syrupy. How do you know when it's done?  Right now this looks a little bit thin, but as it cools it will definitely thicken up. So I'm going to turn the heat off and let that cool a bit. Now we're going to work on our pesto sauce. So I'm going to take my walnuts that have been toasted. I'm going to place them into the food processor, and then we're going to take the skins off of the garlic, and you'll notice that they're soft. Soft to the touch, and that skin prevented it from burning, but just mellows out the flavor. These are nice and soft. So I'm going to toss that into the food processor. Now with the basil, you just want to take the leaves off of the stems. So that's what I'm doing here. Now one thing about basil, if you start chopping it up or tearing it, it tends to turn black. It oxidizes very quickly, and so that doesn't make our pesto look so great, right? So what I like to do is if you add some lemon juice that will help prevent that from happening, as well as adding some fresh parsley to the mix. And that keeps it nice and bright and green and very appetizing looking. So you want about a cup's worth of basil. I just purchased one of these containers from Trader Joe's. It's about four ounces, it says, on the container of basil, and I just used the whole container, and that seems to work perfectly well. Okay, so this is all of our basil, and that's going to go into the food processor as well. And then I'll take a section of fresh parsley, just a nice handful of it. I'll take out any big stems, and just drop that right in the container in the food processor. And then I'm going to take some lemon. I've got my lemon squeezer here, and I'm just going to squeeze about a tablespoon's worth. Let's start with that, and we'll start mixing. Grab yourself a spatula and just scrape down the sides a little bit to keep things in the mixing area. Okay, at this point I'm going to add just a little bit of salt for now. I'm going to be adding more probably as we go. Now I'm going to drizzle some olive oil in there, probably about a quarter of a cup as we go. Just continue adding enough oil to get a nice smooth consistency. Now because I'm serving this with some nice warm vegetables, I'm going to place my sauce into a saucepan and just heat it a bit on the stove. All right, so we are ready to serve it up. Everything is ready. Our pesto sauce is warm. I heated my plate up and we're going to take our pesto sauce and I'm just going to smear it on the bottom of my plate. This is how it was served in the restaurant and it was just so delightful. All right, now I'm going to scoop up some of the vegetables and just start piling them on the plate. They look amazing. Look at this. This is a wonderful dish. You can also make it easier on yourself. You can make your balsamic reduction a couple of days before. It doesn't really matter. We'll keep. And the same with the pesto. And then we'll take our reduction, which is much more syrupy than when it started out. And I'm just going to drizzle a little bit over all. I'm ready for my taste test. I know this is amazing, but I've got to taste it for you and tell you about it. This is my new favorite way to eat vegetables. It's absolutely delicious. The pesto sauce with the balsamic reduction is such a beautiful combination. Like I said, do yourself a favor. Make the reduction ahead of time a couple of days before. Have it on hand whenever you want to make this dish. Same thing with your pesto sauce. You can freeze it, put it in ice cube trays, and then it's always ready. I'll just heat it up.  You have a restaurant quality dish here. Absolutely delicious. You're going to love it. If you think this looks good, give me a thumbs up, share the video, and don't forget to subscribe if you haven't already. We'd love to have you. So thanks for watching everybody. We'll see you next time.


It's still plus politics. Now, gunmen suspected to be bandits earlier attacked the convoy of President Mohammed al-Buhari in Katzina State. The senior special assistant to the President on media and publicity, Garba Shehu, confirmed this in a statement on Tuesday. He explained that a convoy of cars carrying the advanced team of security guards, as well as protocol and media officers ahead of the President's trip to Dura for Salah came under attack near Dutsima in Katzina. Now, the attack on the President's advanced team is the latest in a series of criminal activities by these outlaws who have continued to terrorize communities in the northwest and parts of the north-central of the country. Meanwhile, Femi Fanikayade, former Minister of Aviation, has said that the federal government can no longer defend the current spate of insecurity in the country. Joining us to discuss this is Dennis Amakri, a senior security consultant and former assistant director of the DSS. Mr. Amakri, it was a pleasure to have you join us. Good evening. All right. I'm wondering, this has to be the biggest story today, because even though Mr. President was not in that convoy, it seems to hit too close to home. This is not the first that we've had of series in Katzina, but this seems to be the closest support, a 300-man team of terrorists trying to shoot at, and I'm sure they were aiming to kill. Why do you think that this has gone so far that there is no fear whatsoever even when it comes to the President's convoy? Oh, well, these are terrorists, okay? And because they are terrorists, they could attack anywhere, on the same road that people have been passing and they've been attacking them, you know. But there's one significant thing that people don't understand. The President is the most protected person in the country.  So they carry a lot of security around them. And what does that mean? It means that they could be attacked. They could be attacked. So it is not strange that this particular convoy has been attacked, you know. But again, remember, this is just an advance party. It's not in the President, it's not in there. But it is the President's convoy. Now, I am happy that those security details that were going through that convoy did a good job. They did a good job. Because although we have collateral damages, which is expected, they re-attack, you know, they finally repel and then, of course, went through and arrived at their destination. So that is the situation. It is not an irregular thing for a presidential convoy to be attacked. In fact, here in the United States, the President who has been killed in his convoy, you know, so remember that these convoys are meant to be attacked. And that's why they put a lot of security around them. But do you not think that this is a statement of sorts? If these people dared enough, I mean, again, you said they're terrorists, so we can't talk about whether they have the temerity or not. They've done it. Does this not seem like a message that they're trying to pass? Again, if this is an advanced team of Mr. President, if these people were, God forbid, disarmed or one way or the other, overpowered, this means that the security around Mr. President could have depreciated at the time he got to Daurah. So again, I'm asking, what is the game plan here and why is Katzina gradually becoming a domain or a headquarter for these dastardly acts? Well, you know that we have a swap from outside the country that have operated around that Daurah, Bordeaux, Axis, Niger, Republic and all those areas, Chad. So these foreign terrorists have a lot of capabilities, including the manufacture of bombs and then, of course, the use of bombs in what they have to do, including what we have at the railway, this location there. So we have these people in that area. And then, of course, they are making a statement. Yes, they are making a statement that we can call in and then, of course, do what we want to do, including attacking the presidential or even the governorship. The governor of Bordeaux State is covered with attacks so many times. So these are the things that we are experiencing from the terrorists. But again, you sit back to ask, why are we condoning these terrorists? You know, why are we condoning them? Big question. I'd just like to, you know, backtrack and give us some information before we go to what FFK had to say about this. In May of this year, I think of the 24th of May, terrorists attacked a community in Katzina and killed 12 people. Now, in January of this year, NSCDC boss had lamented about the killings of their own operatives in Katzina state. And there have been several other situations. And I remember one time when Mr. President was also in Katzina and there was another attack. So I'm asking, where is the might of government, the sure force by security agencies? If this is nowhere to be found, could this mean that these so-called terrorists have taken advantage of the lapses of our security agencies and the foot-dragging of our governments to continue these acts on a basis knowing that nothing may really happen, apart from the government condoling with people and talking tough, but no action following it? Exactly. I agree with you because I think the posture that we are using dealing with this particular situation looks like we are having kids gloved. We are playing kids glove with them because we are not out to really bear down on them and then crush them, you know? Even when they were not this strong, we were playing, putting politics into it, ethnicity into it. And now these guys have grown like a Frankenstein and then, of course, trying to attack the Nigerian state.  Because what they're doing is becoming an international embarrassment, you know?  So somebody will ask, how do they come all the way from wherever they are? How do they find the way without running into security operatives and getting there? Although, yeah, we agree that there must be an insider who is working as a double agent or saboteur. But they did it, they got all the way down there, attacked the place, removed their perpetrators, and then they're gone. How do they even get out? Because if we have a quick response, we should give them a fight for their body. But this does not happen. So somebody has dropped the ball. And I think further investigations will show what is really going on. I'm not a security person. And so I may not be you know, as intelligence when it comes to security issues, but I'll try my best. What kind of surveillance, active surveillance is there in Nigeria right now, especially in those areas where we would consider as hot zones? Is there any whatsoever? Because what you just said now points to that. Well, how did these people get to this point? 300 men on motorcycles, 300. We're not talking 10. We're not talking 30, 300 armed with guns. What is the surveillance system? Is there any right now as we speak? And how walkable is it? Again, the APC government led by President Mohammad Buhari had in 2015 campaign mostly on this issue of terrorism, promising Nigerians who came out to vote for human mass, that he was going to deal with the issue of insecurity. But right now we don't even know if the president is doing anything in that regard. I'm sure that if you were a government official, you'd tell me the government is trying its best. But let's talk about surveillance and let's talk about election, which is just around the corner where the ABC has a candidate who they're fielding right now. And of course, they're going to tell us a story about how they're going to change Nigeria, but they are in power. So what exactly is going on? Well, I think that there is some kind of like a physical attitude towards security, because let's talk about surveillance for now. I don't think there is any effective one that they're using right now. And it has been recommended over and over again. I in the sky is not a new technology. I in the sky, if it is covering all the federal capital territory, should be able to see them when they are even coming. And when they finish attacking, if they succeeded, we could also see that when they are leaving and where they are, their present location and the Air Force can go into action. But you know, for political reasons, nobody is trying to look at that. So I don't know why the complicity, you know, because these are national issues, existential, that you've mentioned the election that is coming up.  You know, it's a very serious issue. And I don't see how we can even run credible election while there are some terrorists occupied, some local both beds. And then I like we just reject it because it will not be a credible election. Let's talk about finally the issue of, I mean, there are so many people who have said that there are people, strong men in quotes, who seem to be maybe in the corridors of power that have a hand in this. I remember when the government of the UAE put out a list of people who they said they had tried for funding terrorism in Nigeria. This is the UAE. But our country that is facing the terrorism, whose people are dying as a result of terrorism, we're yet to hear the names of these people. We're yet to hear the naming and shaming and dealing with these people. So again, I ask you, even though I might sound like a broken record, how serious are we about fighting this insecurity? We need to have a go away if at the height of it, there's nothing really being seen to be done. I can tell you with a single sentence, the security agencies are doing their best, but the politicians are not helping issues. Because, you know, the politicians are the ones that have the authority to authorize and to, you know, say do this or do that. We have this common phrase that is being bantered around political will, political will, you know, and it all is in the hands of the politicians. So they have to be serious. I know all of them want to succeed. You want to succeed, you want to tell us how good Nigeria will be later. After you win, you will do better than the present administration. But the present the present situation will not allow you to do it.  You can't hold elections. You can't, you can't move freely. Your people are even scared. How many people will come out to go and vote when terrorists are shooting? They will not come out. So we have to reorder our priority and look exactly where we're going, because we cannot continue like this. And finally, our security agencies, a lot of, there's been a lot of chat, chatter, about the fact that they do not have enough gear to fight this hydra-headed monster called terrorism. And that's because they differ from zone to zone. We have heard that trillions have been voted to fighting insecurity in Nigeria over 2022, 2021 into 2022. My question is, where does this money go? If these men and women are complaining about them not having the wherewithal to fight this terrorism that we're all complaining about, where's the money going? The money is just not there, because the government has, we have a very funny way of managing our budgets in Nigeria. You can hear all the first, and they give the money billions, but the money is not appropriated. So you find out that, yes, the defense budget is billions, but there is no appropriation. So it's not backed by money. It's not backed by cash. And you find out that, yes, they are not able to get all the amounts they want. They are not able to recruit, because that's another one. Our number is too small. They cannot recruit as they want.  All this is money. And of course, politicians feel it is too much money to spend, excuse me. So this is the situation. We have to, we have to be very, very truthful to ourselves, because when we say we are spending money and the money, we are not getting the results. And when people do certain things, they are not held responsible, that is a real big flaw in our system. Hmm. Well, on that very gloomy and uncertain note, I want to say thank you to you. Mr. Dennis Amakre is a security consultant and of course, the former assistant director of the DSS. Thank you so much for speaking with us. We appreciate it. Thank you for having me. And thank you. That's all for the show tonight. But before I go, I'd like to give a take. It's about that time of the year again when these people come to us and ask for our votes. They tell us stories, stories that are very pleasing. And sometimes you wonder if they really live on the same planet as you, if they live in the Nigeria that you are experiencing. When was the last time you went to the market? When was the last time you hopped on a bus?  Is life as easy as it was before the Bahá'í administration came into power? Insecurity is seriously on the rise. And these people have come out again to tell you that they want to make your Nigeria, the one you and I live in, the one that you and I are experiencing insecurity, people being killed, our children unable to go to schools because the same spaces are not safe, they're telling you that they want to change that Nigeria. But they are the party that are in power. So I always ask, as you go out for those campaigns, or you listen to these people speak, ask the right questions. Don't be afraid. And if you do not get the answers that sit well with you, take a vote elsewhere because we will all be the ones to sit through another eight years, if not of pain.  We see everybody running away from Nigeria, but those of us who have to stay, what do we stay and experience? That determination or whatever we do on election day will determine if Nigeria will be good for us or the worst. I'm Mary Annacle. Have a good evening.

Okay, so the first one is calculate the number of atoms in 1.7 moles of boron. So the problem is, I mean, okay, so it's asking what is the number of atoms of boron, right? So N is amount, right, amount can be number of moles, right? So it gives us the number of moles of boron, 1.71 moles of boron, and it's asking, well, what's the number of atoms? So do you guys recall how to do that? Yeah, just Avogadro's number, and this is something you should have memorized by now. So 1 mole of boron, 6.022 times 10 to the 23rd atoms of boron. Remember, this isn't something that's specific to boron. It's anything that you have a mole of is 6.022 times 10 to the 23rd. Yeah. Is that what you just mentioned? No, ask pertinent questions to the question. Anything, any questions about this particular question? Okay, cool.


Welcome to Geneva and WSIS Forum 2022 and with me is Jose David Montia, who is Vice Minister of Digital Agenda in the Dominican Republic. Welcome. Thank you. And congratulations on your WSIS 2022 forum prize. Can you tell me about the project that achieved that? Yes, of course. Thanks. Of course. First, thanks for the invitation. It's an honor for us to be here. The Dominican Republic have a new digital agenda. Why? Because we know this era of digital transformation needs a complete plan, not just for the government. We designed a new strategy for digital transformation that includes the private sector, the government, the civil society, and the academic sector. In our plan, we include to work with the legal framework to enable the digital transformation, also connectivity and access, digital government, about education and digital skills, digital economy, innovation technology, and cybersecurity. So we pretend to work with our people and for our people in a complete change of their life, the quality of life with this new digital agenda. They're completely integrated across all aspects of society. Yeah. That's it. Here's the key point. First is the construction process for the digital agenda. We first travel all the island, all the Dominican Republic country, trying to understand the people's needs. Then we go to a place and work from like eight, one year, defining exactly the projects, the actions line, the objective, and the indicators that we will be monitoring for really move into the digital transformation. But in this case, we have the support directly for our president because he creates a presidential cabinet for digital transformation, and he is the president of that cabinet. And the ministry of presidency is the coordinator. What it means, all other ministers, general directors, and people in charge of public policies, they are working together. We are working together. That's why our government, our country is in the same line working for digital transformation. But remember, it's for our people. That's why we prioritize on the project that impact the economy, the recovery from COVID and good services for citizens and trying to, for our citizens, have a very good life.  Yeah, that's it because we use a methodology, scientific methodology, not to build a document in the presidential palace in one desk. So we go to all the regions. We see it with the people. We heard the people, then there is expectations and there immediately needs. So we have a platform for that exercise of democracy that we recollect all the proposals or the comments, all the projects in the platform. So it's permit that if you are in the South or if you are outside of the Dominican Republic, you can collaborate with a digital agenda. We receive a platform from the Cold Citizen Lab with help for the Inter-American Development Bank. So it permits us to, in a pandemic process, collect all the information that we need with the participation with the people to make a common digital agenda. Well, congratulations on your well-deserved recognition, Minister. Thank you very much indeed. Thank you.


This is unfinished the only place where we get to finish and finish matters My name is SK Gitanga. You can follow me on all social media platforms at SK Gitanga today We're talking about social media lifestyle specifically about influences that ranges from Tik Tok is there's an Instagram and Telegram Twitter, you know, so on to our first question Do you think this influences influence us in a positive or negative way? Let me know what you think in the comment section Positively they they impact positively I can say the Around half of the percentage is positive Once you want to put your ideas you come alive and you get to say deal, but I also know you talk about them man suit of what I take talk for the I do talk for the mile kill our social media handles But I can't do valuable look at the entertainment Me as an actor in influences on us idea. Majority of the influences are doing a pretty good job So I would say positive because a good chunk of them do a good job Hey So like mostly Okay They are not realizing that the fact that they are alive is life. But if we are going to take a selfie and see the world, we are going to see the world, we have a background, we have a city. But if we go, we are just going to see the world, we are going to be able to be honest and we will be able to do what we want, and we will see the world. If we go there, we'll see the world. Some are positive and negative. Everything in Agujaga, there is a negative side and a positive side. I think it depends with their brands, but most of them I think they do influence positively. I'm a big fan of TikTok, so there are like a thousand of them on TikTok. And I follow like so many of them, Kenyan influencers, and I think they do influence people positively. Also, as I said before, it depends with who you're following, what their brand is about. But I feel like 90% of them do positively influence people. If it's the same, there is a positive side and a negative side, but there is a positive side and a negative side. But I can't take sides. The issue is, everyone, every person, every influencer, has an audience. No, no. There are two. One is the internet, the other is TikTok and the other is Instagram. It's not that.   So, what kind of audience do you have? So, the issue is, it's high-term what we realize is that TikTok as a platform, any other social media platform, the platform is what we're going to go for. It's what we're going to go for to the traditional media, traditional TV stations, like they can influence opinions. They can inform people at a faster rate than the traditional media. So, the issue is, while in Mao, they have the privilege, the audacity to command an audience, they have to select their content in a way that they package it in a very benefiting, helpful to the masses. But we don't build on a generation number. It's just a joke. To build on a generation number, at least we need to say, by the way, when TikTok is there, it's there, it's there, it's there. It's not to influence, to worship mungu like Aok. So, obviously, it's positive. But it's not like secular songs like, it's something negative. It depends on the influencer and what they're promoting or what they're influencing. If they're influencing good content, then the society will go on a good way. If they're influencing bad content, they will not. Society will go in the opposite direction. Influencers, they can positively or negatively impact the society. Number one, it depends on the audience. So, you know, if I'm watching an influencer, then it depends on me and my values. There's someone there who, when they see their lifestyle they are living, there's someone who will be easily influenced and some things that they do, like you may end up even spending your fees so that you may live a lifestyle. But okay, in someone, someone who knows that there's something that they have to do so that they may once live that lifestyle, I think for some people it will be in a positive way and that is to be a negative. So, the audience really depends. Yeah, positively. Everyone has brains. I think they impact the society positively because under the market, there are brands like Kilishangan and there are people who say that they are a celebrity. I think this varies with different types of influences and also the type of brand that they are trying to upbringing. We do have influences who are always encouraging people to try out dangerous stuff, eat dangerous food. We also have influences that are going to teach you how to make money, how they do it themselves, you know, their daily life and stuff like that, motivational quotes. Those are the kind of influences that I think bring a positive kind of impact. On to our second question. Do you think influences lie, especially when it comes to their lifestyle? Let me know what you think in the comments section. Yeah, of course, most of them lie. Yes. If you look at the storyline, the history of some of the characters of Tik Tok, I mean Tik Tokers, not all of them are real situations. Yeah, we do have Claude Chase. Aposadra. Yeah, we do. We do have Claude Chase. Yeah. Like, some of you are going to be in a place too funny, but it's not funny. Yeah. Of course, it's the camera. You have to lie, but not see water. So they are most who lie, but yeah, fake it till you make it. Yeah, some do, some lie. Actually, I don't know if it's true, but I don't know if it's true, because America and in real sense, it's not true. Yeah, that was a lie. I just saw it on social media. Social media. I don't know if it's true, but I just saw people chatting up there. I lie when some of them do lie. Yeah, 1000%. They do lie. I think they just put a very perfect image and picture out there, which is not necessarily what life is about. And they tend to make people stick to this kind of lifestyle. People want to live this way and they get to have so much peer pressure. And you feel like the way you're living, your ordinary life is not what you're supposed to be doing, you're supposed to be living in a certain way. Yeah, I feel that is not really okay. Just be you. Yes, they lie. Influencers sometimes do lie. Sometimes they do lie, they're human. Yeah, influencers can lie if they want what they want, or they have been paid to do so. It depends on the motivation to lie. Some, but not all. Yeah, that's true. Yeah, many people lie about their lifestyle. Because otherwise, when you're live on camera, you have to apply on makeup.  You don't have to come here.  I want to be the kind of life I'm living so that I can command. I want to be the kind of person that can associate and have a vision. So, when you're live, you have to have some experience in your life, in your life. You can do many things. Maybe you can post in a show, post in a high place, post in a very luxurious area. Sometimes it's more like a business or business opportunity or business partner. So, this is how much people have to have friends. That's it. We have to ground different. Yes, I do think a lot of people fake their lifestyle. In fact, your people can lie and I feel like it is so unnecessary because if you're trying to be an influencer, right, we're supposed to follow what you are doing. So if you cannot trust your lifestyle, what should we trust what you're saying? If you cannot be authentic with yourself, it beats the whole thing of trying to influence people. It does not make sense. So please, can you just try? Don't try to put pressure on us. Don't lie to us.  Remember the people who are following you and they're trying to know if that's authentic. They want to know how you did it. What are you going to tell them? Let's take a short break. We'll be back with two more questions.


Hi. My name is Asaf. I work for the Wikimedia Foundation of the Community Development team. And I want to talk to you today about Wikilearn, the new online learning and skill development platform by the Wikimedia Foundation for the Wikimedia Movement. Why do we need an online learning platform? First, our strategy tells us that we do. Our strategy calls for extensive investment in skill development and training. And to achieve our other strategic goals, we will need to improve the skills and the access to knowledge and skills in our movement among our volunteers. So that's a major need. And the lack of access to training materials and training opportunities is a major barrier to many of our communities, especially emerging communities, newer communities, communities in emerging countries, and also to people who, for whatever other reason, have difficulty accessing materials, whether it is the language barrier or physical barriers that prevent them from getting to places where there are training opportunities or training materials. So there is also an angle of equity in making sure there is an online learning platform that's available to everyone who is online at least. Even the existing materials that we have, and we have lots of existing training materials, are underutilized. They're not used enough. A lot of people just don't know they exist. So there is a discoverability problem of people even learning that there exists already some training materials that they could use. Or maybe they are aware it is available, but it's not in a language that they speak, so they can't use it. Very often that material is outdated or un-maintained and is no longer corresponding to the way things are or to the way the interface looks. And so they need revamping, revising. And finally, a lot of topics still aren't covered at all. We just don't have training materials or at least don't have good training materials about lots and lots of topics. WikiLearn is our attempt to remedy that, at least in part. And it is an online learning platform that's open to the entire Wikimedia movement and anyone who has a Wikimedia account. And it is running on free software called Open edX. Open edX, that's the free software that also runs the edX.org website. And we use that software to host our own version of the Open edX platform. It is an established and free software LMS learning management system. It supports several teaching styles. You can have a MOOC course on it. You can have a self-paced study with computer graded exercises. You can have live courses that meet at specific times and have live instruction by video call. You can embed pre-recorded videos or host video calls inside the platform. You can create exercises and problems for learners to practice their skills with or without instructor assessment. You can also have them assess learners, assess each other's work. You can have them assess each other's work and then have instructor assessment. Or you can just have materials that have no grades or assessment at all. The platform itself is already available in several dozen languages. That's the interface, the platform itself. And it is accessible according to accessibility standards. So it should be usable by the disabled. And it allows to log in using OAuth, which means you can log in with your Wikimedia credentials and don't need to use another username and password in your life. And it is mobile friendly and has an app. So we think all of that makes it a good choice to run the learning platform on. And we have also augmented it, enhanced it with some custom features we felt were needed, especially course content translation. The ability to write a course in one language and then have volunteers translated like we do to other content in the movement. So that if there's a great course in say Chinese, it can be translated into English, not necessarily from English to other languages. And then that great Chinese content can through English perhaps be translated into other languages as well. And the translation is done on meta using the systems that we already know on meta for translation. And we can even translate video subtitles of content. And we're currently beta testing it. It's a feature that wasn't available in Open edX that we developed and added to the platform. So if you go to learn.wiki, which is the URL, learn.wiki, you will already be able to take these courses listed here, introduction to partnership building, addressing harassment online, Wikimedia speaker guidebook and reading Wikipedia in the classroom. And we're working on this whole list of additional courses that will come available in the coming year in 2023 about digital security, about academic research of Wikimedia projects, some modules from the communications team, Wikipedia and Laula in Spanish about the Wikipedia in the classroom, campaign organizing in Wikimedia by the community programs team, GLAM modules from Wikimedia Sweden, friendly space training from Wikimedia Netherlands, and Wikie education modules from Wikimedia Poland. And more will be coming. So what can you do right now? You can go to learn.wiki, press the Wikimedia button to log in with your Wikimedia account, not the username password and enroll to some course that you would like to take. If you want to develop curriculum to build a course yourself on Wikilearn, get in touch with us right to us at this email address, comdevteamatwikimedia.org. Here's a quick look. This is what the login screen looks like. You press the Wikimedia button at the bottom. This is what the course catalog looks like with the courses that are currently available. And then once you select some course, in this case, the partnership building, you can start accessing the content. You can see that the videos have subtitles, which is helpful. And I hope it is fairly self-explanatory and easy to use. So go to learn.wiki and let us know what you think. Thank you for your attention.


When we talk about computers these days, we're usually referring to what's called a PC, a personal computer. A computer that comes in basically one of two configurations, a desktop or a laptop system. A desktop is a non-portable system where the actual screen, the display, the monitor, is a separate unit from the computer itself, which is usually this small tower. In a laptop system, the monitor and the computer itself are put together in one portable unit, and whereas with a desktop, the keyboard and the pointing device, the mouse, are attached to the accords to the computer, in a laptop, the keyboard and the pointing device, a trackpad, are built on to the computer itself. So it's all one physical portable unit. The term hardware simply refers to any physical component of a computer system. If you can hold it in your hand, it's hardware. Software, in contrast, is not physical. Software is simply the instructions which are executed by the computer. What we call a program is just a piece of software. It's some set of instructions for some coherent purpose. Programs can be written to do all sorts of things, but here's the list of what are probably the nine most commonly used types of programs today. First off, a word processor is simply a program for creating and editing textual documents. A spreadsheet is a program mostly used in business. It presents the user with a grid of rows and columns into which the user can plug data, and then the user can have the spreadsheet perform calculations upon these rows and columns, and also do things like, say, draw charts from this data. When people talk about using the internet, what they're usually really talking about is using a web browser. A web browser displays web pages, which are textual and graphical documents which are retrieved from other computers out there on the internet. By far, web browsing has become the most popular thing to do with a computer. Web browsing probably now takes up over 90% of the time people spend using computers. An email client is a program you use to send and receive email. An email, very simply, is a textual message you send to another user on the internet. An instant messenger is also a program you can use to send textual messages to other people on the internet, but it works a bit differently. Email is like sending a letter. You send it off, and then it sits in the recipient's mailbox until they check their mailbox. With instant messaging, it's expected that the recipient is also running an instant messenger at the time you send the message, and the message then instantly appears in their instant messenger program. The message doesn't sit and wait in a mailbox until they check it later. With most instant messengers, you can't send a message to someone who isn't currently running their instant messenger program. So instant messaging, or I-M-ing, as it's called, is more appropriate for immediate conversations. It's more like a chat room, except the messages are still private, like with email. They only get sent to one recipient. A media player, unsurprisingly, is a program for playing media, and when we say media we mean mainly video and audio. So say if you put a DVD in your computer and wish to play it, you use a media player to do so. An image editor, of course, is a program for creating and manipulating digital images. By far the most popular program for this purpose is a program called Photoshop. In fact, Photoshop has been so popular for so long that the word Photoshop has become synonymous with manipulating digital images. So you'll commonly hear people talk about photoshopping an image to mean digitally manipulating that image. Most video these days is now digital, and so it's edited on computers using programs called video editors. Even stuff that's still shot on film these days is edited with video editing software, because it's just that much easier to do it on a computer rather than having to deal with all this physical film. And finally, the last type of program to mention, games. And games, of course, run the gamut from the very early video games like Pac-Man and Pong, to simple card games like Solitaire, and then today's modern games with complicated 3D graphics. Actually, there's one more important type of program to talk about, and that's what's called an operating system. An operating system is a very different kind of program because it's not one you use to accomplish any particular task. It's a program you use to run other programs. It's the operating system in a modern computer which allows it to run multiple programs at once. When you power on your computer, the first thing it does is it loads the operating system which you have installed on that system. Once the operating system has loaded, you can then use its interface to launch other programs. For the last two decades, the most popular operating system to run on PCs has been Microsoft Windows. The latest version of which is called Windows 7, and that was released in 2009. The version before that was called Windows Vista, and the version before that was called Windows XP. Here in 2010, you should be at least using Windows Vista if not Windows 7. A lot of people are still running Windows XP even though they really shouldn't. For reasons I'll explain later having to do with security, you generally shouldn't run very old software. The two main alternatives to Windows are an operating system called Linux, and Apple's operating system called Mac OS X. Linux is interesting because it's an example of what's called free or open source software, meaning that anyone is legally allowed to use, copy, and modify the software. So as a user, that means you don't have to pay for it.  Tons and tons of stuff out there runs Linux, even though it's not very popular on PCs. Mac OS X, in contrast, has become increasingly popular in the last 10 years, and now it accounts for maybe 10% of PCs, at least in the United States. OS X is certainly not free, and in fact Apple only wants you to run OS X on computers which you buy from them. Even though the hardware which Apple sells internally isn't really any different than what you can buy, say, from Dell. The cases are different, and they make their own keyboards and mice, but otherwise it's just the same stuff. However, to stop people from running OS X on hardware which they themselves do not sell, Apple put a check into OS X such that when it loads, it looks for this specific chip, and if your hardware doesn't have this chip, which only Apple sells, OS X will not load. So just be clear what you're paying for when you buy an Apple computer. Apple charges a 30-50% premium for the same hardware you can buy from other computer makers, but people pay it because they like Apple's nice shiny case design, but most importantly because they want to run OS X, and the only way they can do it is by buying their computer from Apple. Now whether you use Windows or Linux or Mac OS X, the user interface is generally about the same in each of them. Many details differ, but the big ideas are really just the same. So while the material I'm about to cover is a bit biased towards Windows, it's for the most part applicable to all three different operating systems.


here we are going to derive Marshallian demand function. And Marshallian demand function as we have already studied that this was the concept given by the Marshall and it is expresses the relationship between the quantity it demanded of a quantity and at the same time its relationship with its the price. So actually this provides us the solution that how with the change in the price quantity demanded of any commodity it will be changed. So when we see this it means we can calculate that quantity of the commodity that will give the optimal choice bundle to the consumer. And if we say in Tadalfa's case it is that if the consumer has two goods X1 and X2 and they are using their consumption bundle when their respective prices have prices 1 and 2 its income is constant. Whenever now there will be change in the price then its demand changes. Because of this change in demand its actual new optimal bundle will change. It means now the consumer will have the different utility level. From the first utility level its utility level or in difference curve level will change. If we are able to calculate the change in commodity demanded we can measure its quantity. So we can assess that its optimal choice bundle is either because of that it is better off or it is less. Now if we have to measure it then how we can do it. So whenever we have to decide that what is the actual amount or what quantity which gives the consumer optimal utility or maximizes its utility we have to measure its commodity so to measure its quantity we can take the help of utility maximization approach. Now utility maximizing approach if we explain then it means there is demand of commodity X which we already talked about depends upon various prices and income. When we have to utilize the utility maximizing approach then from this diagram we can see that the consumer is having this in difference curve that depicts the various bundles available to the consumer and these are bundles are on the same in difference curve mean consumer is indifferent among all these bundle but he select only this bundle A because it was tangent to his original budget line. Now suppose now that the price of the commodity X has decreased making possible for the consumer to shift to this new budget line or to pivot to the new budget line making him possible to have a new optimal bundle B and if the price of X decreases further again a new budget line is pivot out with the flatter slope and the consumer is having this third bundle T. So in this form we can see the consumer has shifted from bundle A to bundle B and then to bundle C in response to the change in the price and for these respective prices we can see that only the price of that commodity X has changed. When we measure the change in quantity demanded with respect to these prices then we can plot the relationship between that quantity demanded and this price. So when we plot this again we are having quantities demanded on X axis and the same respective points of the combination and their prices on Y axis and we join this then we can have this demand of the consumer and we can have the demand function. If I explain this in this form together then we can say that these are the factors or the points that have affected the consumer through these prices and now for these three the consumer have the similar points joining and consumer have expressed this in the form of this demand curve. But here this is the case when the consumer it was dealing with a normal good it means this relationship it can be different for the different nature of the commodities. So if I have to derive this demand curve for the normal good so I will utilize the same price consumption points and the same points derived downwards and explained on the vertical axis with the price. This demand curve will be explained for the normal good and it will show that the price consumption curve is moving upward and the demand curve is moving downward. If we will include the case of the inferior good in the inferior good again the price consumption curve it is upward but the backward bending and with that backward bending we can see now that the quantity demanded in response to the price fall has not increased rather reduced. So in this form we can have now that the consumption of the good has reduced and the price consumption curve is backward bending. When we say the neutral goods neutral goods we have already studied means these are that type of the good on which there is no change of the price change so whenever there will be any type of this good we will deal and the price of X if it falls budget line it pivots outward for this so it means only the quantity demand budget line has shift like this but the consumer has not shifted its demand from this point rather from this bundle to this bundle A to B consumer shift in a manner that the commodity demanded of X2 might be or the Y has changed but for the X it remains the same so it shows the price consumption curve that is the vertical form and we have the same type of the demand curve means that is vertical without any key. So Marshallian demand curve when it is derived mathematically we can have that we are having this utility function when we are having this multi good case that is our objective function and subject to our budget constraint that is our constraint so we can utilize the Lagrange multiplier model means where we can say this objective function plus lambda into subjective function and this Lagrange is now derived at the first order condition and through the first order condition now we are having n plus 1 equations and number of X and 1 for lambda so we are having this multiple level of the equations and change in utility due to change in X change in utility due to change in X2 and likewise we are having one equation equal to lambda and when we equate this we may have change in utility due to change in X1 equal to lambda into P1 and here we can derive like this so either we can have any type of equation where we can equate them with the lambda or we can equate with the price of 1 now coming to the point we have one equation where we can have this utility equation 1 divided to the modern utility equation with the other and it gives us this price ratio and from the same we can have the value of lambda and from this equation we can come up with that this price when it is placed here and lambda up to this we can have this that lambda is actually that value that determines that what will be the change in utility with respect to one unit of price and likewise price will be the change in utility for one unit change for one unit of lambda so that it gives the economic valuation of the commodity and from here we can check that how much consumer is willing to offer or to pay for one additional unit of the commodity so when we substitute this value of the price into our budget constraint we come up with the amount of X1, X2, X3 so these like range help to determine the Marshallian demand function
