Ahead of the June governorship elections in Iquiti State, aspirants of the People's Democratic Party have rejected what Congress to elect ad hoc delegates while the APC postponed its primary elections to pick flag bearer. We take a look at the build-up to the elections in Iquiti State. Still on the breakfast this morning away from Iquiti State, elections Tech Point Africa is a digital media company that amplifies the best innovations out of Africa through its publications, data and events focused on innovations provided by Tech Point Africa in Nigeria. We'll also be looking through today's papers and analyzing the big stories of the day. It's a beautiful Tuesday morning. Welcome to the breakfast. If you're going to be back on your screen this morning, I am a messier before. And I'm Kofi Bartels, thanks for joining us on what triumphs is to be a thrilling addition of Breakfast Mercy. Good morning to you. Good morning. Looking fabulous as always. Same as you. I can't wait to get to the trending stories, especially what we have to talk about the last one. Wanda Chaldeverein. Of course. It's usual. We said the conversation with top trending conversations. Stories making the rounds across board. And the first on the list this morning we'll be looking at the fact that the Director General of the Progressive Governors Forum has resigned. Saliu Lukman resigns as the APC Governors Forum DJ. And this is coming on the heels of the controversy surrounding the planned convention. Now some people say that prior to this time when the governors had meetings, they had talked about his resignation asking that he should resign. But one thing you need to know about Lukman is that he's been very strong on his position about the delay of the convention. He's constantly talked about the fact that the ketika committee delaying the convention was not anything good for the APC. And so all of that. Now we haven't seen the letter, however, of his resignation. But a lot of people think that it's connected to the convention on all of the controversies surrounding it. Yeah. For me, I'll follow the conversation online and on air. I'm wondering what the hula-baloo is. Permit my use of the word. With the Director General of a Governors Forum. He is just an administrative personnel for that Governors Forum. And does it really matter? Because it's about the politicians. If he resigns, they'll get someone to stand in for him. So I wonder what the hula-baloo is. Of course the APC have had their issues with the convention and the divisions within the party and the People's Democratic Party saying, you know what? We're daring you.  Let's see if we can even put something together. But I think maybe the political watchers will want to see what plays out because the Governors have been meeting. Now some people think that Suleiman Lukman has been very, very, very, very great in terms of his contribution towards the development of the APC policies. And some of the states that the APC controls in Nigeria. So a lot of that.  What's going on? But for me, I would always say that interest would always play. So wherever the interest is not serving, I mean, the Governors will probably say, hey, step down because you're not serving our interest. And he could also resign on the basis that his interest also has not also been conceded. So however, this is politics and the political. Yeah, I mean, for those who are saying, you know, of course, Suleiman's contributions to the party to ensure that they continue to consolidate on the gains of the all-progressives Congress, especially across the straight states in the country. And the real people that matter to me. And the Governors. Politicians, the Governors. And the role of Governor Mai Malabuni, you know, cannot be overemphasized in ensuring that the APC spreads his tentacles. I mean, now the party has, you know, once a foothold in the South-South. It was never the case before. We all know what happened when they went to Government House, Cross River State. And of course, I had the Governor of Cross River State they come and move to the APC, you know. So I think the Governors have this on lockdown, you know. These are the power brokers of the party. So very valid, very valid. I mean, the point you have actually raised is very valid because some people also have crewed why you have Suleiman Lukman as the DJ. Why? Is he a Governor? What is he doing there? Because people would say, if you have the Governors Forum, then it should be a point where you have Governors networking from the same political party. So what business does he have, you know, being in that particular spot? But however, you can also take out the fact that he's relevant, his contribution and what have you. But interest would always come through. I mean, that's what politic is. Because politics is about interest. Interest is politics. And that would continue. So where in a situation where your interest is actually not being served, or your interest does not represent the interest of the party at the end of the day, then you could be kicked out. It's possible you should be. Some people are also arguing that in Nigeria, nobody resigns, your only pressure to resign. That might just be the case for you. That's not a bad point. Did he actually resign? Was he pressured to resign with that? Because I mean, if I were the DJ of such a political party, I'll be thinking of the perks of... I mean, you're looking at the politicians. They are the ones who have interest. No, but I think because he's been very vocal about some issues, and maybe that's not even playing well. This is me just saying, playing well and sitting well with the governors. And so it's possible to just say, who are you again? Excuse me.  And that's the case.  Let's see how things pan out for them. Indeed, indeed. Of course. Well, shoot anyone who tries to attack the prisons. It's what the Minister of the Interior, Rovira Beshola, has asked the prison officers to do. Should there be any prison attacker that tries to attack the Nigerian prisons? I mean, it's been an issue in the past with the attacks by our non-government and other persons, even in the north, with the terrorists attacking prison formations in the country. The one that really strikes fresh in my memory is the one that occurred in Oweri, the Imusei capital, because all the facilities close to the prison are near where you have the government house, and you also have the police headquarters. We also remember what happened in Edo state during the period around where you had the Ansar agitations, where there was a prison break. And so we've been having these prison breaks, and most recently another one that was really, really well-publicized. So a statement issued by the spokesman, media advisor to the Minister of Interior and former governor, Arreg Beshola, says that the Minister gave the order while inspecting the Agodi custodial center any battle now. Some people feel this is a bit harsh, while some people feel, you know, you have to meet force with force. So shoot anyone that attacks the prisons. So, but now this is actually an instruction coming from a minister asking that people should go ahead encouraging extra judicial killing. And it's that what we want for democracy, don't we have a system that should check all of the excesses? I mean, why do we even have to? Are we saying that we're not even capable enough that we don't have a system and intelligence to put out to withstand these attacks? Because it sounds like we're very overwhelmed, and we're saying that's an organized structure. That's not a forest. The prisons exist in a particular location, and that's number one. And then you have a location. So what happens to intelligence? What happens to ensuring that these people don't come to the facility to attack the facility? So I really don't know if that's very logical. I don't know how a minister would wake up and give an order in a 20... Isn't that what Nigerians need to hear? Needs to hear? Yeah. That you wake up and encourage the people to go ahead and shoot at random? No, he's not saying people should shoot at random. I've listened to comments on this, especially online. And now that Twitter is back, people have found their voice, or let's say they have found their wings. No pun intended. But why would you go attack a prison facility? The minister used the word. He called it red zone. He says it's a red zone. So if it's a security zone, you also need to act with the column. I mean, have you tried using your phone at a military checkpoint before? I understand all of that. But I don't think that that's a justification. I don't think that that's a justification for a minister to give an order that... Because that would be encouraging the offices. Okay, so this is what we're saying now. Get to a checkpoint. And somebody is acting extra. Just shoot. And you know the campaign that we're pushing against, and you know the campaign that's on against police brutality, and how we're asking that people should be civil in their conduct. Why should we even allow... Because it actually just looks like we're not very structured enough. We have been overwhelmed by this man, or not gone man, and we cannot decipher. We can use intelligence and order, security tactics or strategy to win. Win over the specimens or capture them, however the case is. And then you're asking. As much as it sounds like it's a good idea, but I think that that's not very... It's not very... You have a point. You have a point as regards the human rights angle. And people have stated this as well. Now listen to quite a number of commentators, especially the human rights community in Nigeria, talking about the safety of life, extrajudicial killings and all of that. But the fact that you... What if you were just looking around? Looking around is... No, I must say looking around, you were just looking around. Oh, lurking, yeah. Okay, so you have this on two-faced heads. Those who will be trying to breach the security of these military, prison facilities or correctional centres from outside, and those who will try to breach the security from inside, basically the prisoners who want to escape. Now, I think that if it's about the prisoners escaping, then of course, shoot to kill may not be too ideal. You can try to capture them from the inside. From the inside.  Well, you know, like in some of the movies, because I think that maybe we... We had to learn all of that from some of the movies that we see. Of course, you have prison break and all of that. It usually would not just work. There's a local panence that says, the rats inside, outside cannot come without... No, you don't say it. You don't say it. I mean, you don't say it well. You don't say it well. No, what I'm trying to say here is that... Now, rats with the house. Hey, hey. Now you invite rats outside. Thank you. So it's not possible. So first of all, we need to look inwards. I mean, that's so rash. Do you even think... Are they even empowered enough to go ahead and shoot? And what have you? I'm thinking that there are other ways, you know, to solve these issues. The human right angle, like we have mentioned. We can't behave. We can't constantly act in a different way and expect a different result in a democratic setting. But why would you go... I mean, if anyone... For instance, we're talking about the bastion of democracy. How would somebody want to get to the prison? That's number one question. We're talking about the bastion of democracy, the United States of America, for instance. Try attacking an American embassy. You carry gun. Say you won't go attack. Try attacking an American embassy and see what will happen. You don't want to hear whether or let's try and capture him to see if he's deranged or whatever. But also, you also want to ask that this order should be coming from the minister. That's also another question you should ask. He's a minister of interior. Okay. I'll give you an example. The British citizen who attacked a synagogue in Texas, you know he freed all his captives. Okay. What happened to him? I mean, there have been several situations where there's a hostage takeout. There's a terrorist. He goes into a mosque or he goes into a church or goes into a school. And maybe they're able to free the captives, but they decided to take out the person. So this is what I think. As much as that sounds very logical, as much as that should be what it should be, I think that we have decided to take the position of being very reactive every time things happen. And that's on that premise that we're having the minister, Raul Farouk Beshala saying, shoot whoever you find around trying to attack the facility, which is very reactive. So why don't we get to the other side of the divide and be proactive and put up measures and ensure that our prisons are safe. This time we never had a time where prisons were attacked. So where are we getting it wrong? What's going on? Why can't we have the intelligence? Could it be that we have an inside job, as people would say? Is there a collaboration? What is going on? So this is some of the questions. As much as we would say, if we have to defend our democracy, then I'm thinking that we really don't have the tool that way, really. It's very rash. That's my thought. I agree. I agree. You know, the fact that we need to have intelligence, gathering mechanisms that can at least forestall these attacks and predict when they would happen and all that, but even sometimes the best of intelligence, gathering systems do not work. If it were so, we would not have had 9-11. Yeah. So sometimes you won't see it coming.  And you have to act decisively, especially when you notice that you might be overwhelmed. Okay? No, that's why I climbed. That's why I climbed. Have you been to prison before? That's very... Have you been to prison before? I have been to African prison. Yeah, okay, fine, fine, fine, fine. But the thing is this, yeah, sometimes the prison facilities may not be as heavily armed and equipped to withstand a heavy attack, you know. They may just have, you know, weapons and all that. How many are there? Do they even have the weapons to shoot? They do. Are you sure? Oh, yes, yes, yes. They are known gunmen. Let's even go by the statement. Let's even agree that it's fair that people should shoot anyone you find trying to attack the prison, according to the order from the minister. Do they even have what it takes to shoot? How many bullets can they put out? They do, they do. But the thing about, yeah, they have weapons. No, that's right.  But we're saying one at the same thing. Yeah, good. So instead of waiting to... Be attacked. Because the person who is coming with weapons, is it coming to drink tea with you? You know, the person who is coming with weapons, is he coming to drink tea? He's not going to say, oh boy, how far now? He's coming for you. If it's an unknown gunman, if it's a terrorist, if it's a bandit, they want to get in there and get their guys out. So in medicine, they would say that, they call it preventive, and I'm saying that we should throw the line of preventive. Let's not get to that part where we have to react, shoot anybody. Let's stop them from coming. I mean, they would say the best form of attack is defense. So why don't we build up the defense and not allow these persons... It should also be like you can't even attack the embassy. Just the same, the thoughts of you wanting to attack the embassy, you know what you're going to be faced with. Anyways, we need to move away from that. Still part of the top trending. Let's see how things actually pan out. Make sure you are very careful if you have to visit anyone in the prison, especially if you... Because you could just be sure. It's attack. The word is attack. The word is attack. So what if you open your boots? Have you thought about that?  I don't think the minister... It looks like a threat. I don't think the minister is saying, shoot anybody who is around. No. So I'm just creating a scenario where you pack your car. Probably you have to go visit an inmate. And then you open your car. It feels like you're being very hostile. Attack. Attack is... No, it could actually be seen as an attack. I think I get where you're coming from. And I think I also get your concerns. Initiability concern of every... The tendency of our security agencies and our uniformed men to be excessive, to go over and above, and to abuse certain privileges and rights given to them. So definitely they need to proceed with caution. And maybe the minister should have used a bit more different words. But let's see how we have a plan. I'm interested in your next story. No, I know you're very interested. So on top chart this morning, groom allegedly impregnates event planner. So does this... How does that even happen? ...child that I've been asking myself, could it be fiction? So someone took to Twitter, Tiger Twitter is... I mean, the ban has been lifted. So we have our voices again. And so let me read the tweet for you. So we have... We're having a big issue at the moment. Event planner is pregnant for the groom as we speak. Man is terrified and no one can reach him at the moment. The bride resides in the United Kingdom when the groom resides in Nigeria. God help us. Always God would have to help us for all of the confusion and the nonsense that we cause. And then we call God to help us. So in my mind, when I saw the story, I laughed at it. And I was like, could it be another fiction? Could it be that someone is very excited and they pull up on that story? How can these things be? Do these things really happen? So these are some of the questions that's been popping up in my head. But what do you think? You know, it's one of the things that make you say, oh, I thought I'd seen it all. I thought I'd seen it all. I mean, just start with how the groom end up getting involved to such an extent with the event planner. She's an event planner. And you know the event planners usually deal not just with the groom, but with the women as well, a lot with the brides. And sometimes the bride will be the one to say, okay, I like that planner. I think we should go with her. I like this one.  So it means that the bride obviously knows this lady. So how does that happen? I mean, I'm a man and I can't really wrap my head around it. So like I said, I have a lot of questions popping up, but it's just some people would say the fact that she's away. Like you mentioned, it's possible because we're trying to we don't have all of the information. I mean, the story. So we're just trying to paint a scenario. So there's a tendency that the bride, of course, has been stated is not in Nigeria. And maybe she probably would be the one that would have suggested that, oh, this is it. My husband to be is in Nigeria. So you have to be in talks and keep talking and all of that. But whose blame should it be? The first of all is unprofessional for the event planner. Very, very unprofessional of her. I would say it's a heave because we already know she's pregnant. It's very unprofessional. And also it's very unprofessional of the man as well. So both of them shared the blame. They take the blame because as an event planner, I'm not an event planner, but common sense would want to say that you're not supposed to meet in those kind of places, confined spaces, go to his house. You should have an office. Even if it's not an office, an open space where you meet and have the conversation. And if you think that he's actually crossing the boundaries and stepping, you know, going beyond what he should, then you should probably call the bride's attention, try to pull up. Oh, someone would be saying she's speaking, you know, some Spanish right now. But it's really sad. I just can't imagine. Let me put myself in her shoes now, the bride who was in the United Kingdom. If there's something to go by, how would I would be feeling at this point in time? I hear from the reports that, like you said, she's in the UK and that the efforts, let me just say what he said. The man is terrified. No one can reach him at the moment. He's terrified of what exactly? Someone needs to check on that guy. Why? He needs to check on him because, I mean, so he doesn't do anything to himself. Oh, really? Because, I mean, if they try to reach him and they can't reach him, then someone needs to check on him, try. So some of the people would say it's okay if he does anything to you? Oh, really? Yeah, that's what people would say. Why would he be terrified? If the information gets out there as a groom, all right? If the information gets out there, it's on the internet. I know that my wife, to be, will read about it. So you know the story, do you know the statement to say if you can't do the time, don't do the crime? It's almost the same thing. If you can't face it, why do you indulge? We don't want him harming himself to also make it right.   You want to be Randy, you want to, at least have a spirit of thought for the woman, you know? If you must be, I'm not advocating for it. I'm not advocating for, but they're not married, but still you should be faithful. That's my policy. But if you must be Randy, have some dignity.  Go far. Go far. Just, I mean, how many million women do we have in Nigeria? I have no idea. It had to be, it had to be the event planner. Oh, come on. Well, we actually wish the bride. I mean, like I would say, because I still have to ask myself, do these things really happen? But we wish the bride, it's not a do or die affair. We wish her the very best. We hope that the groom is safe, wherever he is. I have a question for you. If you were the bride, what would you do? Nothing. I would probably be thinking of what to do. Would you call off the wedding? I don't know. You know the truth is, you never can tell what you can do until you're faced with the situation. So if I tell you that, no, I wouldn't call off the wedding. It's because I really don't know. I don't know how she feels right now, until you're wearing the shoes and then you can take that decision. So I could say, no, I'll call off the wedding.  No, I will go ahead. But because it's not me, I can't tell. Until it's me then. Thanks a lot. Besties try to jump. Anyway, Twitter is back. Twitter is back. And of course, it's back with its drama right here in Nigeria. Well, this is the much that we can take on Topfriending. Today, definitely come with more starts. Tomorrow, we'll step out of the brakes and when we come back, we head straight to the newspaper review where we take a look at the big stories making the wrong. And we'll have a guest joining the conversation.


Welcome back, Psych2Goers. Thank you so much for all the love and support that you've given us, enabling us to make yet another trip down everyday psychology lane. So, let's begin. Fake friends. Odds are, you've heard of them. Worst case scenario, you've experienced them. They lurk in the shadows, waiting to snatch up their next victim. Why are they so fake? What do they hope to gain? Why do they always seem to slither their way into your life just so they can tear you apart with a smile? This is probably what you may have asked yourself if you've experienced a fake friend. Because let's admit it, we don't need any fake friends in our lives. To help protect yourself from the pain and drama, here are some signs to tell if you have a fake friend. Number one, they adore gossip and drama. People who love to gossip all the time are not always the best of friends. If all they do is want to gossip with you when you hang out with them, something might be going on. The thing is, how are you to know if they gossip about you? Gossip can be very negative and draining. And if all they do is gossip and it's all the time, then that's negative behavior around you all the time. Gossiping can even be a form of relational aggression, which is a bullying-like behavior that ends up bringing about nothing but trouble.  Speaking of gossiping, remember how we mentioned how you may never know if they gossip about you? Well, turns out it's very likely they may just be speaking badly about you behind your back. Odds are, they're just using you for a manipulative gossip-seeking pleasure. You can never know. If you find out they indeed are talking about you in a negative light to their friends, it's best to just simply let that friend go. Number three, you catch them in lies all the time. Let's say that again together, all the time. I'm serious about this one. Pathological liars run abound in the fields waiting for their next victim. Real friends tell you the truth because they're your friend and ultimately want to help you. I mean, your best friend is likely to tell you if the dish you cooked tastes kind of funny because it's simply honest feedback, right? Even if they know the truth isn't nice, they say it in such a way that it doesn't seem so bad after all. But your fake friends just want sympathy and attention and they'll do whatever they can to gain that attention, even lie. They can be totally weird and random lies. All the while convincing you they wouldn't lie about these things because they're your friend. Yeah, right. Number four, it's always about them and they're simply selfish. When your so-called friend is always looking out for just them when you're both together, that may be normal in some scenarios. But not if they're a good friend. They shouldn't just run off without you. They should always think of their friends too if they're with them. And if they're selfish all the time that not only is negative, but it's just not nice. So if you're with a friend and they're only thinking about themselves that asking you or thinking of your feelings or needs then you might want to think twice about if they're a good friend. Number five, they are extremely critical of you. That dress makes you look so ugly. I'm just being honest. Did I say that? Just kidding.  I didn't mean it. Can you imagine a friend like this? Some friends will be extremely critical of their friends because, well, they aren't really your friend. There's a fine line between being honest and being critical. Honesty does not make you doubt yourself nor does it deliver a set down. Critique, however, can leave you reeling with shame and insecurity. They don't care if they hurt you because they never really cared about you in the first place. Your friends shouldn't be your biggest critic. They should be your biggest fan. Number six, they're jealous. Have you heard of frenemies? Fake friends can be extremely jealous of the person they're pretending to be friends with. The thing is they may deep down like you but because of their jealousy they may just hate you even more. These frenemies often feel jealous of the person but have no dirt on them to be mad at. You did nothing wrong to them.  And number seven, they aren't reliable then they aren't there when you need them most. Friends are there for you, especially when you're having a hard time. If your friend can't stop talking about themselves and their problems while not considering your own then that's a definite red flag. You might even be listening to all of their problems but when it comes to yours, they got to go. They're putting all their negative energy on you and taking all of your positive and they don't even bother to give back. We hope we were able to give you a little insight into some of the ways you can recognize fake friends and their manipulations. Have you come across any? Let us know in the comments below.

Things are heating up between Coinbase and the SEC, and I have to tell you this was the inevitable path forward. Coinbase is going to force the hand of the SEC because they cannot give them regulatory clarity. Coinbase asks the court to force the SEC to clarify crypto regulations. Here's what we got. Crypto change. Coinbase took action against the SEC late Monday, asking a federal court to compel the agency to respond to its demand for clear crypto regulations. That has been nine months. It has been nine months since they asked for them to do that, and this is why things can't move forward because we're stuck because of one individual in one agency that is overlooking everything and is just kind of screwing up everything. And that's just how I see it.


Hey everybody, welcome back to Magic Orthodoxy. My name's David and this is a deck review. Hey, today we're going to look at the Bicycle Mariner deck from the United States Playing Card Company. What is mariner? Well, it kind of sounds a lot like, you know, boating, waterway, that kind of stuff, but actually the mariner deck is inspired by fashion trends.  It has a unique and classic cardback design, but it still takes on a modern feel. The original cardback incorporates fantastic nautical chart details like the central diamond shape you see there, compass insignias, there's sun, dial-inspired corner elements, and there's just a whole bunch more. I mean, just look at it. It's just totally detailed. All of this is influenced by the beaming colors and patterns shown during Fashion Week. So they've kind of taken the mariner concept and then married it with Fashion Week, and you're getting the mariner deck from the United States Playing Card Company. This deck is available in red and blue, and they did something really interesting with the colors. The hearts and diamond suits are red or blue to match the deck color, and the spades and club suits are black in both red and blue decks. The front of the tuck case does say Bicycle Playing Cards and has the mariner symbol there, and it says mariner there at the bottom. It says Air Cushion Finish made in the USA. Air Cushion Finish made in the USA. The bottom has ad copy. The top has a tuck seal. The back is the back design of the cards, and that is pretty much it for the tuck case. Let's take a look at these cards. So because this is an off-the-shelf bicycle deck, of course it's going to be the retail stock. It is retail stock, so it's kind of a medium weight. It doesn't feel too thin, doesn't feel too thick, has some snap to it. It's a nice handling deck. The back design of the cards features a fantastic nautical detail. You have that central diamond shape there. You've got compass insignias. You have the sundial-inspired corner elements. There's a whole lot more. Lots to look at. Really beautiful. This makes a really attractive fan and a really cool looking spread. With this deck, you're going to get two standard bicycle jokers. They're both full-size, so there's no guaranteed joker, but one is black and white, and the other one is done in the red and blue colors of the Mariner deck. Your Ace of Spades has the same Mariner symbol there in the center, and it's done in red and black. The Pips and Indicee cards are going to be completely recognizable. They're classic. They're standard. They're what you'd expect from a bicycle. The Bicycle Mariner deck is available in red back and blue back, and they did something really interesting with the colors. The hearts and diamond suits are red and blue to match the deck color. So you can see that they're classic quartz, but they've all been recolored. All right, so that is our review for the Bicycle Mariner deck from the United States playing card company. As always, recommend that you like this video just so other people can find it faster. We also recommend that you subscribe to this channel just to stay up to date on all of these cards and card magic. If you want to follow me on social media, you can.

On news out of Africa, Haiti has requested U.S. and U.N. security forces to help it protect key infrastructure like the airports and ports after the assassination of the president Jovenel Moise by foreign mercenaries. Haiti has requested the help of U.S. and U.N. forces to protect the country after President Jovenel Moise was assassinated by foreign mercenaries this week. But the U.S. rebuffed the request for military assistance on Friday, even as it pledged to help with the investigation, while the U.N. said it was reviewing their request. A Haitian government minister said Friday, and Turin Prime Minister Claude Joseph had raised the topic of assistance with U.S. Secretary of State Antony Blinken and the U.N. Security Council earlier this week. Two letters sent to the U.S. embassy and the U.N. and seen by Reuters requested the support of troops to re-establish security and protect key infrastructure like the port and airport. The minister said the request would also help scheduled presidential and legislative elections go forth in September. Colombia has also pledged to help with the investigation after Haiti police said 26 of their nationals had been arrested for Moise's murder. Some of the suspects had retired from Colombia's army. Two Haitian-American suspects were also identified as James Solage and Joseph Vincent, both from Florida. Seventeen of the men, including Solage and Vincent, have been captured. Three others were killed and eight remain at large, according to Haitian police, who are still hunting for the masterminds of the operation. Haitian officials have not given a motive for Moise's killing. He had faced calls for his resignation over corruption allegations, economic mismanagement, and his increasing grip on power. Moise's killing has sparked further confusion and chaos in the already politically turbulent country over who will take control. Crowds gathered outside the U.S. embassy in Haiti on Friday amidst a state of emergency. Death for a way.


coffee consumption has been associated with an increased risk of hip fractures in some studies, while others have found no significant correlation. This meta-analysis suggests that coffee consumption may be linked to an increased risk of hip fractures in certain subgroups, such as women, elderly participants, and those from Northern America. However, further research is needed to confirm this finding. This article was authored by Shen Lili and Zhu Hongshu.


Hi everyone, Joe for jaspyscasebreaks.com coming at you with 2021 Bowman baseball first edition There it is And I think this is the only box that we have so big.

All right five and six eleven times for the pack numbers one two three four five six seven eight Ten and eleven the final time after eleven we've got packed ten Down to pack number sixteen All right, so here's how it shakes out Emma with pack Ten Nicholas with seven Richard with four William with twenty one West with fifteen Nicholas with twelve William with seventeen Daria with three Louis with twenty three Michael with eighteen Louis with six Adam with one Jonathan with nine and twenty two Tyler with two Ivan with twenty four Willie with nineteen five and twenty Adam with eight William with thirteen Demetrius with fourteen Chris with eleven and Jonathan with sixteen. All right, so there you go Let's see do we go? You know what I'm gonna do. Here's what I'm gonna do We'll go eleven times so usually We can do it in alphabetical order a through z or we can go reverse z through a Just so the Williams of the world won't always be lasting these breaks unless the randomizer dictates otherwise it's five and a six eleven times one two three four five six seven eight nine ten and Eleven and final time. Oh, we're gonna go z through a after eleven. So let's sort this Reverse right there z through a so William you are first and Then sorry Adam, you'll be last you'll have to wait. All right now.

Wendy is a midwife, clinical educator and researcher and Wendy has clinical experience in a way of different settings including rural, remote and tertiary levels of care within Australia. As an educator, Wendy has demonstrated commitment to student learning through innovative teaching methods and enhancing simulation-based learning in clinical teaching. Wendy currently works with the Australian Nursing and Midwifery Federation as a researcher. Wendy is passionate about workforce preparedness, sustainability and professional development. Wendy is currently in the final year of her PhD, and is focusing on the concept of moral distress and psychological well-being of midwives. Her expertise in this area is invaluable for the field of midwifery and we look forward to learning from her insights today. I will now pass it over to Wendy. Thank you so much for that introduction, Bill. And thank you to everyone else who's joining me for this presentation today. So just before I get started, I'd like to acknowledge that I am presenting from Garnerland today and I acknowledge the connection that the Australian Indigenous people have to the Garnerland's past, present and future generations. So I'm going to be presenting today the concept of moral distress in midwifery practice and I'm going to be presenting the four different phases of research that has come out of my PhD. I'd like to thank my supervisors, Professor Lois McKellar, Dr Julianne Fleet and Professor Linda Sweet as well. So what is moral distress? Moral distress was first a concept that was first spoken about in 1984 by a man named Andrew Jameton and he was a nurse educator who was saying some distress in the nursing students who were working in ICU settings and they were talking about their experiences of having to provide painful end-of-life care. So things that they felt weren't necessarily beneficial to the patients under their care. So things like doing suction, taking blood tests, prolonging end-of-life where it wasn't deemed to be necessary. So since that time however the concept of what moral distress actually is has evolved quite a lot so we can see there that Andrew Jameton says that it's basically an institutional constraint that stops the individual from being able to pursue the right course of action or the morally correct course of action. So what is the problem that we have? Why did I want to look at moral distress? So Australian midwives are considering leaving the profession and we have a growing body of literature that suggests midwives aren't being satisfied in their profession. Moral distress may be a contributing factor to this and based on anecdotal evidence at the start of my PhD that is what I was hearing when I was practicing on the wards but there was really limited research regarding what moral distress actually was for midwives. So conceptually moral distress is limited as I said before it's changed quite a lot since 1984 when it was first described so having it not well defined obviously makes it difficult for people to apply to their own experiences as well. So for my project I set up an exploratory sequential mixed methods study so exploratory sequential mixed methods start with qualitative data and they build up to a quantitative phase. So I had three phases with four distinct sets of data collection so phase one was the concept analysis phase two were interviews and phase three was a tool development and you can see how that's progressed from qualitative through to quantitative data methods. So phase one is the concept analysis so a concept analysis is basically used when an area of practice or an area of concern isn't well understood or there isn't an excessive amount of literature around it. It's an inductive approach whereby we find all different sources of literature so everything from peer reviewed articles through to grey literature to find out how the terminology is being used in the context of the situation that it should be applied. So in this case it was looking at how the term moral distress was used in the context of midwifery practice. So we did actually only find eight articles which does demonstrate how the limitations around the amount of research that had been undertaken in this area previously. So I've got the eight phases that are set up there. Now just a little bit of a disclaimer I'm not going into depth with the concept analysis or phase two. They have already been published but I do have the QR codes for those publications available at the end of this section. So for the concept analysis the key findings are to identify the attributes, the antecedents and the consequences. So the attributes are basically what are the components of moral distress. The antecedents is what happens right before and then the consequences are those outcomes. So we had moral actions and inactions so basically what that spoke to was that moral distress occurred when people did the wrong thing but it also occurred when people weren't able to do or felt that they weren't able to do the right thing. So just as an example that could be in the context of midwifery that was either doing an induction or not stopping someone from doing what they thought was improper care. Conflicting needs so trying to balance the needs of an organisation for example and the needs of the woman and as themselves as a midwife personally as well and then there were negative feelings and emotions so basically what we found was that they were the kind of construct needs for it to be called moral distress. So in order for someone to develop moral distress we identified that they needed a moral awareness so very difficult for someone to experience moral distress if they didn't have a moral understanding of the care obligations. Uncertainty so if they just weren't sure on how to care that could also provide a setup for moral distress and then a negative psychological impact. So you can see from that first the definition from Andrew Jameton it didn't actually specify that they needed to be a negative psychological impact and that's one of the things that came out of this. So the consequences there were personal professional and organisational and we'll go into them in a little bit more depth. So at the end of that concept analysis what we came to was a new definition for moral distress in midwifery and that was a psychological suffering following clinical situations of moral uncertainty and or constraint which resulted in an experience of personal powerlessness where the midwife perceives an inability to preserve all competing moral commitments. Now this is the link to the concept analysis publication so please feel free to have a look at that. It does go a lot more into depth on the methodology behind the concept analysis. So phase two were the in-depth interviews now the in-depth interviews all of the questions that we put together for this were derived from the concept analysis so we recruited currently practicing midwives from across Australia and we use social media and a study website where the consent and participant information sheets were as well. So we had 14 participants that contributed to the interviews they were the recordings were transcribed and then thematic analysis was undertaken using NVivo. Now I'm really sorry I know that's a very small picture there but you can see we had a really great range of demographics so everyone from graduate midwife in their first year of practice through to 21 plus years we had representation from New South Wales South Australia Victoria Queensland and Western Australia so a predominant or a majority of the states in Australia were accounted for and then we had a great range of clinical practice scopes so MGP private hospital rotation independent practice education labor and birth and special care nursery. So the themes that came out of that were the experience of moral compromise and that related to navigating conflicting professional and practice values, termination of pregnancy and the cumulative effect and then moral constraints dilemmas and uncertainty which was very much around succumbing to hospital culture and working with fear and uncertainty around that and then looking at the personal and professional consequences. So what I've provided here are the pivotal quotes that we brought out of those that really related to each of the subheadings that I had so navigating conflicting professional and practice values so this quote we felt really demonstrated that it extends to where we can't deliver any care because of a bureaucratic I've just got this just got something sitting over the top of my wording there and then you lie awake at night and you go this is just so wrong I think there's the things that we do that create the dilemma or the distress but there's the things that we can't do that creates equal distress. Termination of pregnancy with something that was very emotive the termination of pregnancy didn't come through with all of the interviews that we did but the people who did speak about it were so incredibly passionate about it that we did include it as a sub theme. Now a lot of the midwives that mentioned this were talking about it in the context of late gestation terminations so some of these were 30, 35, 37 week gestation terminations and this quote really represents that but certainly the stress of knowing that baby died and I've contributed to that it takes a piece of your soul. The cumulative effect so basically what the cumulative effect referred to was repeated exposure to morally compromising situations and how that wore down on the resilience the moral resilience of the person. So you think what am I going to face today am I going to face really bad constraints on the system am I going to face being overstretched am I going to have to am I going to face having to carry out something that I don't want to do how am I going to cope with the constraint of it how am I going to cope with another moral dilemma they just get repeated all over time just in different circumstances they never go away and they never really heal. So the hospital culture and hierarchy so again in the situations where this was brought up it was quite emotive for the midwives who spoke about it so the relationship in one of these was described as subservient excruciatingly difficult punitive and distressing. So fear and uncertainty so this sub theme related to what actually happened to midwives if they did challenge poor practice or if they acted in a manner they felt was appropriate but it went against hospital norms. So this particular participant said I've had more than one conversation when I've said you need to remove your hands from that woman and it bodes very poorly for me so I can't I feel like my job is on the line. So from the interviews that we had we developed based on a another model by Litz and Kerrig this kind of trajectory where we saw there was everything from quite mild negative psychological outcomes through to pretty extreme psychological outcomes and we mapped it across a bit of a trajectory where we said as the stress response increased and the ability to reconcile those negative feelings and emotions decreases we have this trajectory from moral frustration being quite a mild form of distress and then through to moral distress and then moral injury. So we really started developing terminology around how these how these experiences fit in the context of the psychological outcomes of that. So this has also been published so again QR code there if you would like to access the publication. So phase three was a Delphi study. So a Delphi study is basically a method of reaching consensus on topics. So in this instance we took the findings from the concept analysis and the interview and we developed a list of situations that may lead to moral distress and we developed a list of psychological outcomes. So we were basically looking to find out what are the situations that are really placing midwives in a situation where they may have to work against their own moral values and what how does that actually impact on them and the purpose of this was to develop a tool that could be used which we will pilot in the final phase. So we recruited 28 academics, researchers and clinically practicing midwives.  So we started off with 44 situation items and 21 psychological outcomes. We used three different rounds whereby we took the list of items sent them to the participants and they ranked them as to how relevant they felt they were. They sent them back with any comments. We provided feedback and sent it back again and we did that process three different times. So we analyzed everything with SPSS version 25. So again you can see we've got some a great range of participant demographics there and again from very junior to very senior and across the whole scope of practice of the midwife. So round one the highest ranking of consensus was around workload that the work load was too great for them to provide the type of care they felt was necessary. The lowest was around termination of pregnancy. Now qualitative feedback that we're given led to additional two items which related to work load but focused more on the individual. So the additional item, one of the additional items was around the fact that the midwife did provide the level of care that they felt was required for the woman but it occurred at a personal cost. So skipping meals, working late, starting early. So it was really a moral compromise to themselves. There was positive consensus on four out of the 21 psychological outcome statements but the participants felt that they were required to force fit them into one of the categories. So we had asked them to refer to them as either moral frustration, moral distress or moral injury. So the feedback we got back was at the midwife said actually this one for example I cry after my shift that could relate to moral frustration or moral distress or moral injury. So they asked us to open it up so that they could have multiple responses or to say it's not applicable at all to this to moral distress. So in round two we had 16 participants and that's quite normal in a Delphi study to have some drop off and we received a consensus in 14 of the 23 situation statements. So the highest consensus was around intervention without informed consent and the lowest again was around termination of pregnancy. We plotted the psychological outcomes across a trajectory so instead of them being forced fit into the individual sections when we plotted it against the trajectory and you can see that on the table that I've provided. 19 of the 21 actually fit across a pattern so if for example the participants may have picked moral frustration and distress or they may have picked moral distress and moral injury so it still went along a trajectory but it didn't fit exactly within the confines of a specific term. So in round three we had 18 participants so an extra two joined back into this round and we received positive consensus in another four of the seven situations that were sent back. The highest consensus was around organisations not supporting normal physiological pregnancy and birth. Termination of pregnancy and religious and spiritual beliefs still didn't reach any level of consensus and it was the most divisive situation in all three rounds so there was a basically 25% across each of the responses. There was a strong consensus on the proposed trajectory that we put back to the participants however. So this resulted in 40 situation statements and 19 outcome statements and that became the contents of the pilot study. Now I can tell you that this Delphi study has also been accepted for publication and that will be out soon but if anyone would like access to that when it comes out I'm happy to forward that on when it becomes available. So the final phase and a bit of a caveat to this I am still analysing the data for the pilot study but I'd like to present you with some of the initial findings. So we invited Australian midwives who had practised within the last five years the same social media strategy that we had previously used and we left the survey open for eight weeks. So we received 122 responses 102 of them were completed that were usable and all of the data was again analysed using SPSS. So I've already spoken about how we developed the survey so I'm not going to go back into that just in the interest of time but this was our participant demographic so RNM and RM direct entry again good range of practice years all areas of practice were represented in every state and territory was represented as well although not equally. So the frequency of exposure the most frequently reported situations leading to moral distress where that care occurs at my own expense so this was very much about the midwives not being able to take care of themselves and recognising themselves as a as a moral entity unto themselves. The level of workload was too high to be completed to the standard that the midwives felt that it should be and then there were interprofessional issues and that tied in with the organisational culture as well. So the least frequently reported involved with holding choices from families not speaking up and performing unnecessary interventions. Now this was some of the we developed scoring around that trajectory as I said before we plotted the psychological outcomes so an outcome of one would have been moral frustration two was between moral frustration and moral distress three was moral distress four was between moral distress and moral injury and five was more injury so if we scored them based on what the participants the psychological outcomes that they felt they had experienced the maximum they could they could score was 61 so in this cohort we had a mean of 29.9 minimum of 2 and a maximum of 61 so of those you can see there's some pretty concerning data that came out now remembering that this is a relatively small sample size but also remembering that we asked these midwives to declare what type of moral distress they had so they could choose a moral frustration distress or injury and a lot of these midwives suggested that they had all three of those were represented by the midwives responding. I cry following my shift though that was 42 percent of our respondents suggested that was a psychological outcome for them. I feel powerless to make a difference 51 percent I'm not proud of my work 28 percent I'm burnt out with 61 percent and I'll let you read through them but there's one down here the second to bottom one my work environment has a negative impact on my self-esteem so that was 48 percent of the respondents in this study who selected that as a psychological outcome so pretty intense findings so we used the those scores that we developed and we used the Copenhagen burnout inventory to compare the two scores to see whether there was any kind of validity between the two so in the three sub-scales of the Copenhagen burnout inventory and the midwives who responded to this study work-related burnout was an average of 70.7 which is considered to be moderate to high personal burnout was 69.3 and client-related burnout was only 38.8 so what that really tells us is that the midwives are experiencing a situation not related to the women this isn't about the midwifery care it's about the environments that they're practicing in so how this correlates and I'll go through this really quickly and again early data analysis but the burnout the work-related burnout and the total burnout client-related burnout and the personal burnout all correlated positively with the total score from the the moral distress tool that we were creating so it does show some consistency in that and it does indicate that it's it's worth pursuing some further testing of the of the study so basically the the discussion for this is that moral distress does appear to be prevalent in Australian midwives the burnout rates do look like they've increased and that's probably a you know a side study all on its own but other literature from Australia has shown that it's gone up quite significantly significantly but also remembering that this study was taken through them undertaken through the middle of COVID which may account for some of that as well the mental health outcomes that have been identified through this study are really significant though having the workplace impact on self-esteem is quite concerning as well as the other psychological outcomes so the preliminary data does indicate that the pilot of the moral distress tool may be useful in screening for moral distress but it does need psychometric evaluation before we could actually use it as a diagnostic tool that was that was basically my entire PhD there's three years work that we've put into into 28 minutes so I've got a couple of questions that are there you know mate I said we do have a chance for questions so I just make it a few people a chance to write some in but I do have a question for you before we begin so can you tell me a bit more about your vision for how aware you can see the tool you developed could be using the future yeah thanks Belle so we we have to obviously there's two sub-scales that we can get some data from with this tool one of them are the situations and the frequency that midwives are experiencing those situations so obviously that's really important for organizations to be aware of so I do see that organizations may be able to use this tool in the future to kind of do some kind of environmental scanning of what the what the ethical climate is in their own organizations but it does help midwives as well to give the language to the experiences that they're having so whether that's a tool that they're able to use to identify why they're having the feelings and emotions that they're having around their workplace so as I said we may be able to use it as a screening tool initially before it goes on to have further testing but definitely for organizations to improve their workplace environments but also for midwives to be able to talk more about their situations with language development I imagine once we sort of have the screening tool we can then sort of look at how we can manage it or help with it as well absolutely and I know there are some I think it's the American College of Nurses has actually put some information about moral distress into some of their clinical practice guidelines as well I'm just going to throw over the city she's going to ask some questions from the public chat for us I'm not sure if she may not have any sound that's all right I'll ask them for them so one of them was a question about your pilot study and just wondering whether they'd be advised in the sample whether they were from the same work environment yes so um can I can I scan back and um yeah definitely there we go so we had great representation um across different demographics so we had um rotation group practice delivery antenatal gynecology postnatal um private independent practice um education um management and special care nursery so we had most of those um practicing were from a public setting so public hospitals um we did categorize country so our rural and remote health um midwives into a different category uh just because it's it's a different context um we then had private practice and other as well so other tended to be more around um uh management or clinical education um so we did have a quite a big um demographic of people and I can tell you in the I've done some more analysis of um these findings and there was not actually any um correlation between the settings the years of practice um the state of none of the demographic information correlated with um the moral distress scores or the um burnout scores so definitely um at this stage with the early um with the early data analysis there doesn't seem to be much of a correlation in that in the interviews that we had um even the private independent midwives were talking about their moral distress um and that was that was really related to having to transfer women into hospital um and how they were going to be received when they got in there so they felt that they changed their practice to suit an environment that they were going into so we had thought initially that um private practice may be um a little protected from that moral distress being able to work much more autonomously um but with the small sample size we have it hasn't shown that um in particular imagine that's an interesting finding that you came across yeah there was also um another question about whether you can talk about emotion work in midwifery practice yeah um look there is there is quite a lot um Billy Hunter has done a lot of work around that space as well um I guess the midwives do give a lot of themselves and it's something I think that that key finding that we had with the situations that are leading to moral distress really identifies that as well that the top situation that causes moral distress in midwives is that they're trying to give from an empty cup is essentially what what that reads to for me is that they're saying I'm giving and giving and giving I'm giving the care that these people need but there's nothing left for me and indeed again in the interviews the midwives did say to us um uh when I go home I don't have anything to give my families as well so again that morality of of what does this mean to me what does this mean to my family I can't I can't keep um maintaining all of these competing demands yeah which would be interesting there's a couple of people from different places not just in Australia interesting they want to throw in the public chat where they feel like it could be similar in their sort of own areas you don't have to but you are welcome to um there was a question Anita we sort of just sort of covered that when um about the different sort of private public midwives involved so I need to just throw in if you have any more questions about um that does anyone else have any other questions I can just say quickly for Anita um student midwives were not involved um but midwives who had already left practice were involved um and sorry just in relation to the autonomy um we had very small sample size um so at the moment it would be difficult to say um yes or no it has to do with autonomy um but what I can tell you is that in the interviews those midwives still talked about a certain level of moral distress so I do think it's uh I think anecdotally there would be a level of protection around autonomy but it definitely is not um is not like a a complete shield against it but um there's a lot of comments learning like it is important work so thank you for sharing that your work with us today um so then instead of after your study do you have an impression that midwifery is not good for health personal and professional on what can be done oh um look I think there's there's a few things that we need to be really cautious of when we when we're assessing the findings of this study is that of course there's going to be some sample um or response bias that um you would know a lot of the people who respond to a study about moral distress are already going to be um in a place where they feel they may have some moral distress so that could potentially be impacting on the findings that we have so um please keep that in mind um I think I have been a practicing midwife up until about six months ago um and I had some amazing experiences and I think it's a wonderful profession um but we need to support the midwives more um I believe that we need to do more to get back to a a bigger scope for the midwife um and there needs to be different ways for midwives to practice that suit their practice values um yeah thank you is there anything else you want to add Wendy before we finish um I guess all I would like to say now is um just to remember to look after yourselves um look after your colleagues um if anyone's experiencing any kind of negative psychological emotions um please seek help as well I think we do need to be using this language and talking about the experiences that we're having but um the seeking help is also so important um yeah thank you very much um I'm sure everyone is the same as I've enjoyed discussion I mean hopefully look forward to a bit more of your work in the future

So the other day I uploaded a video on a custom created grenade mod which was purposefully built through farm bosses with those immune stages as this grenade itself ignored said immune stages and while people it's just got a lot better because today I introduced to you this grenade's order brother and it's a wild custom made SMG. Has it gone guys my name is dpj and if you enjoy you'll stay here and would like to show you support you can by hitting that like button also subscribe if you do want to see more. So this weapon also ignores immune stages on buses meaning you can farm the likes of Tyrone and Troy or the Rampage or any other bus in the game with the immune stages and kill them in literal seconds making that farm way more efficient. Now people if you want to get your hands on this weapon drop a like on this video and leave a comment down below with your game antagon platform you play on that will send five of you guys on each platform this weapon for what I do ask is if you do get this weapon sent to you by me if you wouldn't mind showing it about other people on this video that would be great. Now also this weapon was created by the one and only as a Ruck who creates some amazing items for sure who also people runs an amazing facebook group based on Borderlands items and giveaways the link to his facebook can be found within that video description if you do want to check it out. So this weapon in reality is just so much better than that grenade especially for me as I don't really use grenades much on zane as I like using those two action skills. So having the benefits of that grenade within this SMG is incredible so how this work is basically as follows the weapons second firing mode literally just drains that enemy's health while they are immune and I was told this is because certain marijuana weapons can do this this one in particular has been infused with the flipper which also I heard ignores immune stages but obviously not to this degree. Now when I was first sent this weapon it was beyond overpowered I mean to a literal point where one hit anything in the game and I just really didn't enjoy it I like modded items but I just don't like them when they're utterly broke. This one had remained and scaled down massively so it isn't as powerful as it once was and although it does still kind of look OP this is largely because of the build I'm using here which is incredible and it can make most weapons seem pretty powerful for sure. Now looking at this monstrosity it's actually hilarious how big this thing is and while using it as an everyday weapon I'm pretty sure you get fed up of only being able to see 25% of your screen but to have it within your bank for those special occasions when you want to farm certain bosses that's what I believe this will be good for. Now also with this weapon I will be doing open loot lobbies on xbox and Playstation if you're doing this out on me giving them away on this video which you can find more about on my discord and links within that video description so come and join one of the best bfd communities at their guys I guarantee you won't be disappointed but yeah people this is in a showcase of this incredible smg made to ignore immune stages on bosses and on that note we have come to the end if you guys enjoyed the video leaving a like really helps out if you're new around here want to see more bfd be sure to subscribe and if you never want to miss a video or upload you can turn notifications on by hitting that bell button but guys thanks as always for stopping by hopefully you enjoyed the video and hopefully I will see you on that next one
