Upon the outbreak of Covid-19 last year, Prime Minister Modi was the epitome of inspiration and sterling leadership in the most trying, challenging and unprecedented catastrophe of the pandemic. The patriotic and deft manner in which he had taken on this challenge, with an unflinching resolve, was unparalleled. Immediate proactive steps were taken in unison, to enforce the lockdown including strengthening our medical infrastructure as also all other conceivable enforcement, containment, medical, safety and relief measures for the benefit of every section of society. India’s prompt, preventive and pre-emptive response to the foray by this invisible viral adversary helped it cope better or else the situation would have been unimaginable.

Having adroitly succeeded in the initial fight for life survival, in the effort for human survival and economic revival, a very sagaciously graded and staggered program for opening up of the key sectors was effectuated. A stimulus for industry was also announced. Assistance was provided to small businesses and workers. Full scale operations of agricultural activities, from the farms to markets, were ensured. Around 200 million women from low-income groups were provided support, through the direct benefit transfer scheme in their Jan Dhan accounts. Further, under the PM-Kisan scheme, Rs. 2000 was transferred to 84 million farmers; 80 million beneficiaries of Ujwala LPG scheme received three cylinders free of cost.  India had the biggest food security programme in the world in which 800 million people were given 5 kg of wheat/rice at Rs. 2 a bag. The Prime Minster announced a Rs. 20 lakh crore economic package to benefit farmers, entrepreneurs, the poor, the migrants and industry, with major incentives for the MSME sector.

Our recovery rate, as on 26 January 2021 was nearly 97% – one of the highest in the world and fatality rate was 1.4% – one of the lowest in the world. As on 29 June 2020, India had 1600 COVID-19 dedicated laboratories, 1055 dedicated COVID hospitals, 1,77,529 isolation beds, 23168 ICU beds, 78,060 oxygen supported beds, 2400 dedicated health centres and 9519 COVID care centres with 8,34,128 beds and had achieved a daily testing capacity of 10 lakh persons.

In the battle against coronavirus, many democracies had used authoritarian and emergency measures and also called in the military, on the streets, to implement restrictions. It was to the great credit of the Prime Minister that he had neither invoked any emergency powers nor resorted to authoritarian measures, but reposed this trust in 138 crore Indians by involving each one them as equal and voluntary stakeholders in the fight against coronavirus. And his leadership and measures were praised all across the world by the WHO, IMF and Bill Gates. The Prime Minister’s approval rating on April 21 was 83 per cent according to Morning Consult, a US based Survey and Research Firm. The IANS-C voter COVID-19 tracker showed that trust in his leadership jumped to 93.5 percent on April 21 from 76.08 percent on March 25, 2020.

All this during and post improvement of the situation, the Government kept emphasising the need to take adequate precautions like social distancing, sanitizing and compulsory wearing masks all the time.

Then having greatly succeeded in our fight against this pandemic, we felt there would be no second wave and did not take the DO’s and DONT’s, being reiterated by the Government, seriously. We thronged market places and public places, most of us without masks or wearing them as chin straps. Attendance at weddings and functions was several times the permitted numbers – again violating the norms of social distancing. We divorced caution, lowered our guard and became careless in a denial mode that corona was over – when the Prime Minister and the Government kept emphasizing the need to follow COVID appropriate behaviour and norms. As a result, cases rose in geometric progression. Hence, it is incorrect for some sections to criticise the Government. Between Jan 1, 2021 and March 10, 2021, India was averaging about 20,000 new cases a day. Many self-styled experts had written articles as to why India will not go through a second wave, even though other countries were, and that restrictions imposed by the Government should go. Despite this the Government kept issuing advisories and continued to test aggressively and ramp up infrastructure. Prime Minister stressed upon Chief Ministers to be on constant vigil and to enforce Covid-19 protocol.

Today PM Modi with, unstinted grit and conviction, and his dedicated team, have left no stone unturned to take coordinated measures to counter the onslaught of the pandemic by increasing supply of oxygen, medical resources / equipment and vaccination for all adults. India’s testing journey and our vaccination drive – the world’s largest – is a remarkable achievement in itself. It is only because of the stature of the PM that there is global support and solidarity with India in medical assistance, from all quarters.

No government could have visualised or anticipated the scale of the monster crisis. The USA, with immense resources, infrastructure and a developed health care system, too suffered multiple waves of this devastating pandemic.

In the calibrated war against this unknown enemy, there are far too many imponderables. In the absence of any cast iron standard as to the adequate required duration of a lockdown for complete success, or the barometer of immunity or behaviour of the virus or strains of the virus with exactitude, we are truly constrained.  Despite this Prime Minister Modi converted a peace time process into a war time machinery.

The persevering endeavour of PM Modi in this war, which requires unity of purpose and participation of all us indomitable Indians, has ensured that cases have drastically reduced and the monster wave has been controlled.  To prevent a third wave, we must all be one in strengthening the hands of the government in our support to follow all Covid norms and win the war against COVID-19.

Wake Words for Mobile Apps

Wake Words for Mobile Apps

Amazon added the “Hey Alexa” wake word to its mobile app. This is going to change user perceptions of mobile voice apps.

One of the main hurdles I’ve encountered when explaining mobile voice apps to people is that they don’t seem to understand how to start talking to mobile apps. For some reason, it’s difficult for people to get their heads around the idea that a mobile app is the same as a smart speaker such as an Alexa Skill or a Google Assistant Action.

If you want our smart speaker skill The Bartender to recommend a cocktail and help you make it, you have to say the following, depending on which smart speaker assistant you’re talking to:

“Hey Alexa, ask the Bartender for a drink.”

“Hey Google, open the Bartender.”

After invoking the Bartender, the user can start a search for a drink by name or ingredient. Pretty simple, right?

So why is it such a leap to think the same interaction can’t happen on mobile?

Because users haven’t been shown enough examples of mobile apps carrying out tasks by voice yet.

We think that if Alexa trains users to understand that they can say

“Hey Siri, open Alexa”

to have a conversation, it will change users’ expectations of mobile voice conversations.

That’s because the Alexa mobile app will help users make the mental connection that, in addition to Siri and Google Assistant, mobile apps can carry on conversations with them on their mobile device. Specifically, they can have robust conversations that help them complete tasks they wouldn’t otherwise be able to accomplish as fast. It might be because they are driving or in some sort of hands-free situation. Or might just be because voice is faster and easier than tapping and typing for certain tasks. Either way, convenience tends to drive consumer adoption once they see it.

For example, did you know you can open any app on your phone by asking for it? Think of your favorite app, then ask Siri or Google to open it for you. Seriously, try it now!

That’s convenient and definitely faster than scrolling through pages of apps to get to the service or content you need. So the next step is adding voice to your app so you can talk with your customer, just like Alexa is going to do.

To be fair, Alexa isn’t the first mobile app to add a voice interface or wake word. Spotify, Home Depot, Sephora, Pandora, and Snapchat have all added voice to their apps with varying degrees of interaction. Most focus on initiating a product search, which makes sense. It’s just that the interactions, sans the ones built by Houndify, are not that robust.

We think all of that will change which is why we built Spokestack. So if you’re looking for a wake word, on-device NLU, or custom synthetic voice to speak to your customer, email us at hello@spokestack.io.

Child-Centred Approach

Making the Most of Me

A Child Centred Approach to Physical Activity

What is a Child Centred Approach?

A Child Centred Approach enables children and young people to take control of their own learning

Sessions / lessons are organised around the child and their personal needs and interests

Teachers and Coaches are there to provide support and facilitate the child's learning but children determine the direction of their own learning following their natural curiosities, interests and passions.

Children jumping off a small wall

Refer to the resource listed below

  • Dragon Multi-Skills Factsheet - Child-Centred Learning

Making The Most Of The Experience

Why is a Child Centred Approach important?

A child centred approach is central to the new curriculum.  A learner driven approach will enable learners to adapt and thrive by engaging them in real, relevant and authentic experiences that are based on their needs, abilities and interests.

The ethos of this child centred approach is completely consistent with the vision of the Curriculum for Wales.

What are the benefits of a child centred approach?

Refer to the resources below

  • Everybody Everywhere
  • Gardens

  • Factsheet - Success for All

Physical Literacy

The importance of developing the whole child to ensure enjoyment and engagement we need to develop Confidence, Competence Motivation, Knowledge and Understanding.

If learners are engaged when they are motivated, confident, competent and knowledgeable what happens when one aspect is missing?

The selection of curriculum content should consider learners’ input and should provide increasing opportunities for learners to help direct their learning as they progress. Learners’ views about their experiences and about what, how and where they learn should be taken seriously when a curriculum is being designed.

Participation is a key principle of the UNCRC and enabling participation will create an engaging curriculum that responds to learners’ interests, needs and priorities. It is also a process that supports a dialogue between learners and professionals. It needs to be safe, enabling and inclusive, and it is of itself a valuable learning experience, supporting inquiry and critical thinking.

Opportunities for improvement – use of conversation coaching, opportunities for accurate and meaningful reflection – (could become improvement in the session, in their ability, in their health

Learners / Participants organising themselves – rather than being told what to do

learners / participants not organiser leading the activity

Practically, in the activity, in positive relationships

Ensuring all are participating – both practically and in guiding the activity

Positive relationships

Positive relationships are key between teacher / coach and learner / participant and between learners /participants

Asking questions - rather than telling

Given over to learners / participants, including changing ‘rules’

Learners / Participants Explain, Demonstration and Do (EDD)

Physical: position of equipment, use of space.

Emotional:  no one left out, no one under pressure.

(Things that help learners / participants – further instructions, progressive activities

Teacher / coach trusts learners / participants to make choices

Use of EDD

Explain, Demonstrate, Do it

Once you have done this use the checklist to prompt further discussion and thought.  How could you incorporate the suggestions into your sessions? How would these approaches work for you?

Making The Most Of What Is Available

Schools and practitioners need to draw on the guidance and resources available to decide on what specific experiences, knowledge and skill will support their specific learners to realise the four purposes of the Curriculum for Wales.  Good teaching and learning means employing a blend of approaches including direct teaching, problem solving, as well as creative and critical thinking.

The following resources, whilst created for earlier curricula, still contain a vast range of learning activities that can be utilised within the new curriculum.  The resources constitute the ‘what’.

It is how they are used or the pedagogy that will ensure they help learners achieve the four purposes.

  • Dance (KS2) - Creativity

Learners should be encouraged to be creative in all aspects of their learning, including the integrated cross cutting ethos of the Curriculum for Wales, prompts schools, practitioners and learners to take this approach with aspects traditionally viewed as not creative for example sports or team games. By thinking creatively learners will be more engaged and motivated adapting activities to meet their needs, abilities and interests.  This will help them sustain long term participation.

Dance is a key element of the expressive arts area of learning and experience.

Toyota's improved second generation Aygo offers an extra bit of spice for city-dwellers. June Neary checks it out

Will It Suit Me?

Just how much do you really need to spend on a car? Around £10,000 sounds about right to me - the starting price for the second generation version of Toyota's citycar, the Aygo. Pronounce it 'Eye-Go', the Toyota man told me, but I still kept calling it 'A-go' during my time with the car. Whatever it's called, it's a clever little thing and surprisingly stylish for the money. Women like me have contributed massively to Toyota's bottom line in recent years by purchasing chic little Yaris superminis by the bucketload and this car is cut from the same kind of cloth. My colleagues told me that it was Toyota's version of the same design which has spawned Citroen's C1 and Peugeot's 108 but having seen those two cars, I think the revised version of this Toyota, though it can be a tad more expensive, is a more attractive bet than either. If you want to spend more, there's also the Toyota iQ to consider, a trendier take on the city car theme, but the Aygo looks plenty trendy enough for me.

I liked the fact that the front and rear overhangs have been kept short so as to maximise interior space and make parking simple. This revised Aygo now has a fresher look, with its frontal "X" motif now transformed from a two-dimensional graphic into a more powerful, three-dimensional architectural element. Inside, there's a trapezoidal-shaped centre console, with this design theme reflected in details such as the air vents, door trims and gear shift surround. The console supports a wide dashboard with a matt, anti-glare finish, set between slim A-pillars. The instrumentation features a meter made of up concentric rings which are permanently lit. It incorporates an easy-to-read central multi-information display. It's not a large interior of course: you wouldn't expect a citycar to offer that - but there are five wide-opening doors and the kids I transported seemed quite happy in the rear. I also managed a full Tesco shop in the compact 186-litre boot.

Behind the Wheel

The Aygo is a citycar first and foremost, reflected in a sprint to 60mph that takes around 14 seconds. The engine is still the same 1.0-litre three cylinder petrol unit but Toyota claims to have given it better torque delivery at low speeds - and its output is slightly up to 71bhp. The combined economy figure is 68.8mpg and emissions are pegged at a laudable 93g/km. These figures are helped by the fact that the 1.0-litre is billed as one of the world's lightest production engines. The five-speed manual transmission I tried is the default choice, but Toyota's x-shift semi-auto transmission is also available as an option, offering clutchless gear changing for those who want to take the drag out of city driving. Effort is further removed by the fitment of electrically assisted power steering, making light work of turning the Aygo about face on a sixpence. I liked the fact that the steering column is adjustable for both reach and rake. Coupled with plenty of driver's seat travel and ample headroom, it all meant that I had no problem getting comfortable behind the wheel of the Aygo. Sitting behind a tall driver is another issue altogether and rear space is a little pinched with the front seat at the back of its travel. That's perhaps forgivable, as there is only so much that can be done within the strictures of such a limited wheelbase.

Value For Money

Prices, as I said, start at around £10,000, but of course that's just the starting point if you want to individualise your car. Toyota makes much of the latest Aygo's scope for personalisation. Buyers in this sector want to be able to quickly, cheaply and effectively differentiate their cars so they don't look like everybody else's. MINI was the first company to get on board this trend and Citroen quickly followed. Now the Japanese are playing catch-up, with Nissan's Juke offering clip-on interior panels that can be swapped at will. This Aygo follows this concept, with instrument panel, centre console, air vent, shift knob and gear lever surround sections that can easily be changed. Even the X-shaped front grille, rear bumper insert, front bumper and alloy wheels can all be specified to suit. To try to keep things easier for the customer and to offer better value, Toyota has also created a range of exterior and interior styling packs, rather than forcing people to select piece-by-piece customisation.

Could I Live With One?

This car makes the necessity of being urban-bound into less of a chore. You could use it for longer distances but you probably won't want to. It's more at home in the city. Sexy in the city in fact? You could say that if you want to.

Ufit X Ghostbusters Afterlife

UK-based beverage brand UFIT, known for its well-distributed selection of high-protein drinks, has teamed up with the upcoming Ghostbusters film Ghostbusters: Afterlife, releasing in theaters next month. The company has created special edition versions of its flagship UFIT Protein Shake, which has a solid 25g of protein, a gram of fat, 12g of carbohydrates, and 168 calories in its Salted Caramel flavor.

UFIT and Ghostbusters have slightly rebranded that on-the-go protein shake, infusing the product’s usual design with the Ghostbusters logo, as you can see in the image above. They also feature a promotion around the neck, which is a major part of the collaboration, as if you post a photo of one of the Ghostbusters shakes, and tag the brand with the hashtag #ufitsupernaturalflavours, you can win some big prizes.

Doing those steps above puts you in the draw for the grand prize of a return trip from the UK to Los Angeles, four nights accommodation, a personal paranormal tour of the RMS Queen Mary, and a Twilight Tour of Sony Pictures Studios. There are also runner-up prizes of Sony wireless headphones, so if you’re in the UK, be sure to grab one of UFIT and Ghostbusters’ specially marked protein shakes to be in to win.

Kenyan Premier League ( KPL) is set to resume on December 4, 2021.

This follows an announcement made on Wednesday in Nairobi by the Football Kenya Federation ( FKF) Caretaker Committee.

The committee, led by Retired Justice Aaron Ringera met the club's management and chairmen at the Nyayo National Stadium where the date was unanimously fixed.

"We deliberated on some issues today. Key among them was the resumption date for the top tier league. We had set it for November 26 but changed it to December 4 to give the clubs ample time to prepare," FKF Caretaker Committee League, Compliance and Clubs Chairman Ali Amour told Standard Sports.

The meeting unanimously agreed that the league will be played on government facilities in Nairobi and these include Nyayo, Kasarani ( both Main and Annex) and the Utalii Sports Club grounds.

Both parties extensively discussed the fixtures which will be normalised to fit the clubs.

No team will be burdened with the match time table as the fixtures will be set to the teams satisfactions.

"We will harmonise the fixtures in terms of games, rest, travelling and training by teams," said Amour.

Clubs were urged to be fully compliant with the committee which they all agreed to adhere to.

The clubs agreed to avail four representatives who will engage the committee on a daily basis to ensure progress and development of the league.

"Other issues discussed were the growth of the clus and their youth teams and we are ready to mend any existing gap to ensure the teams grow and develop," said Amour.

At the same time, the committee declared that the ongoing National Super League games are just mere friendlies as no points will be awarded to winners.

AFC Leopards chairman, Dan Shikanda reiterated the league resumption was good news to football stakeholders, players and fans.

" We identified some of the problems bedevilling our football.It is also good to know that players are aware of why the league was stopped," said Shikanda.

"Halting the league gave us opportunity to give it a clear direction with a significant purpose. It gave clubs a chance to prepare well for the remaining matches. We took stock of where the rains started to beat us."

Shikanda, who is also a member of the other five committees supporting the FKF Caretaker Committee, gave assurance that players and clubs will get value for their money in the league to resume.

He reiterated that Covid-19 protocols would be followed to the letter during the games.

" It is good that Nyayo and Kasarani stadiums are spacious. They will hold good a number of fans in line with the Covid-19 protocols," he said.

Shikanda further assured that the FKF Committee will work on modalities for the clubs to be funded in the league which will be communicated in due course.

On its first day of operation on November 12, the committee unanimously suspended the FKF Premier League, National Super League, Division One league, Women's Premier League and Women's Division One League.

The committee also took over the national team Harambee Stars after FKF President Nick Mwendwa’s office was disbanded by the State upon recommendation of an inspection committee constituted by the Registrar of Sports Rose Wasike.

Mwendwa’s team has been denied access to the federation offices based at Kasarani as DCI and other government arms further investigate to establish the extent to which the misappropriation of funds at the football body.

What is Aluminium Bronze?

Aluminium bronze is a type of bronze in which aluminium is the main alloying metal added to copper, in contrast to standard bronze (copper and tin) or brass (copper and zinc). There are two major groups in the Aluminum Bronze family. Aluminum Bronze contains approximately 9-14% aluminum and 4% iron while Nickel Aluminum Bronze contains approximately 9-11% aluminum, 4% iron and 5% nickel.  That addition of nickel in the latter further improves the corrosion resistance of a material that is already strong in this area.

  • Single-Phase Alpha Alloys – These have a good ductility and are suitable for extensive cold working. CA102 is typical of this type – Alloys containing 3% iron, such as CA106, are single phase up to over 9% aluminium.
  • The Duplex Alloys containing from 8% to 11% – aluminum usually with additions of iron and nickel to give higher strengths
    • Casting Alloys :
      AB1/ CuAl10Fe3
      AB2/ CuAl10Fe5Ni5/ CC 333G
    • Wrought Alloy :
      CA104/ CuAl10Fe5Ni5/ C63200
      CA105/ CuAl10Fe3/ C63000Indian Standard : IS 10569 – 1983
  • The Copper Aluminium Silicon Bronzes have lower magnetic permeability:
    • Casting Alloys :
      AB3/ CuAl6Si2Fe
    • Wrought Alloy :
      CA107/ CuAl6Si2/ C64200

Properties of Aluminium Bronze Buttweld Fittings

  • Excellent strength, similar to that of low alloy steels
  • Excellent corrosion resistance, especially in seawater and similar environments, where the alloys often outperform many stainless steels
  • Favorable high temperature properties, for short or long term usage
  • Good resistance to fatigue, ensuring a long service life
  • Good resistance to creep, making the alloys useful at elevated temperatures
  • Oxidation resistance, for exposure at elevated temperatures and in oxidizing environments
  • Ease of casting and fabrication, when compared to many materials used for similar purposes
  • High hardness and wear resistance, providing excellent bearing properties in arduous applications
  • Ductility, which, like that for all copper alloys, is not diminished at low temperatures
  • Good weldability, making fabrication economical
  • Readily machined, when compared with other high-duty alloys
  • Low magnetic susceptibility, useful for many special applications
  • Ready availability, in cast or wrought forms.

Applications of Aluminium Bronze Buttweld Fittings

  • General sea water-related service
  • Water supply
  • Oil and petrochemical industries (i.e. tools for use in non-sparking environments)
  • Specialized anti-corrosive applications
  • Certain structural retrofit building applications
  • C95200 is a highly ductile material with good corrosion resistance. This is ideally suited for bushings, bearings, light duty gears, wear plates, low pressure piping, pump columns and containers.
  • C95400 offers high yield and tensile strength, extraordinary toughness and exceptional resistance to wear, fatigue, and deformation. This all-purpose alloy is widely used in chemical, marine, aircraft, and machine tools as gears, bushings and bearings, pumps and valves.
  • Fasteners: Nuts, Bolts
  • Industrial:, Bearing Races, Valve Stems, Worm Gears, Valve Guides, Valve Seats, Bearings, Bushings, Cams, Pump Rods
  • Marine: Marine Hardware
  • C95500 is one of the toughest of the non-ferrous alloys. It serves the same industries as C95400 with higher strength, hardness and corrosion resistance, though it has slightly lower impact toughness.
  • As a special Nickel Aluminum Bronze, C95800 is especially suited for marine applications with optimum resistance to seawater corrosion. Those may include propeller system parts, bushings, bearings, piping, including desalination, and other corrosive marine applications.
  • C95900 provides higher hardness and compressive strength, and is used for wear plates, forming rolls, draw dies, gears, valve guides, seats, and die inserts.

Masskrugstemmen (Stein holding competition)

Masskrugstemmen is a Bavarian Sport and is generally played in groups. How one competes in a Masskrugstemmen is by holding a 1 liter Stein, of course filled with your choice of Hofbrau beer, with one arm, completely stretched out and parallel to the floor. You must hold the Stein as long as possible in this position.

Rules of play

  • The Masskrug is a 1 liter Hofbräu glass stein

  • The Masskrug is filled with 1 liter of Hofbräu beer to the mark. The combined weight of Stein and Beer is approx. 5.4 pounds.

  • The Masskrug is to be held with one arm, left or right, stretched out in front of the body (not sideways!), and completely parallel to the floor.

  • Your thumb cannot be on top of handle. Opposite arm must be straight down not supporting your body in any way.

  • The stein must be held by the handle. It CANNOT be held through the handle hoop, or by the actual body of the stein.

  • The Hofbräu logo must always face towards the front of the contestant (away from the contestant) and towards the audience.

  • The contestant may not wear any form of artificial support on his/her arm, elbow, wrist, hand or back, including taping or bandaging the k for the competition.

  • The contestant may also not wear a back brace during the competition.

  • Any powder, pine tar or similar substances on the hands are also forbidden.

  • There is no switching of hands once the competition has started.

  • If the arm holding the Masskrug is not absolutely parallel to the floor, the contestant gets a warning, the yellow card – after two warnings follows disqualification, the red card.

                   Any spilling of beer is an automatic disqualification

Leadership: The "Year of the Soldier" In Pakistan

April 22,2008: Last November, the Pakistani armed forces got a new commander, general Ashfaq Pervez Kiyani. Two months later, he declared 2008 as the "Year of the Soldier." This was an attempt to improve the morale of the army, which has been unhappy with so many troops being sent into the tribal areas, to fight Islamic radicals (Taliban and al Qaeda.)

There are 619,000 personnel in the armed forces, most of them in the army. It's an all volunteer force, and recruiters can be picky about who they let in, for there is no shortage of applicants. The official military budget is about $5.3 billion a year. That's about three percent of GDP. But in reality, the military get close to 7 percent of GDP. That because the military has a welfare trust (the Fauji Foundation), set up over half a century ago, that controls commercial firms amounting to about six percent of GDP. Profits from these operations pay for health, education and other benefits for members of the armed forces (active and retired) and their families. The senior officers in the armed forces benefit most from this arrangement. General Kiyani apparently plans to redeploy a lot of this money to improve health and education benefits for the troops and their families. Housing and living standards for troops will also be improved. All this will improve the morale of the troops, apparently in preparation for another offensive against Islamic militants. This is needed because the Taliban and al Qaeda have turned some parts of the Pushtun and Baluchi tribal territories into terrorist sanctuaries. From these locations, attacks are planned and carried out against targets within the tribal territories, and the rest of Pakistan. In effect, the Taliban and al Qaeda are at war with the government of Pakistan, and have made public announcements to that effect. But about fifteen percent of army personnel are Pushtun, and many of these have kin in the tribal territories. In this case, morale and motivation matters, a lot.

So when I first started mastering, I didn't have any plugins whatsoever.

There were no computers to master with; I would just use tape. So I'd have an EQ, and I would have some numbers on it, cues and gains and stuff. What I would do is I'd have to change them and listen to what they did.

The thing that's been quite strange for me is now that I've got plugins, I use them in a similar way, where I'll do stuff, and I'll listen to it. The curves that I'm using when I go into the presets and things that other people are doing – it's fascinating to see that what I was doing in the analogue world all those years ago is very similar to how people have set things up and how things look in the digital world now.

Now, a lot of people these days will do it the wrong way around, which is they'll be looking at stuff and not changing something based on, "Well, that means it's too much because I've added dB there and that doesn't look right."

Well, there's no such thing as "it doesn't look right" when you're an engineer. It's all about sound and feel. So really what you need to do is not work from the metres but with a lot of EQs. A great tip: using an onboard EQ is like using hardware where you're just using knobs without having to see. With something like FabFilter, you'll see the curves. Sometimes that's a bad thing because you're going to do things just because your eyes are telling you that they're right. But really, they're wrong because your ears are telling you the truth.

So it's a good thing to kind of shut your eyes or use plugins that have knobs rather than visuals to train your ears up and get your ears used to how something sounds when it's got 1dB at 10,000. It's really about hearing those things and making sure that you know what's going on with your ears rather than with your eyes.

It's just interesting to me to see what I was doing all those years ago. Just turning knobs is quite self-satisfying when I see that that works the same way with your eyes, too. So all I'm saying is use your ears and not your eyes.

Making a Claim Worksheet

Turn each of the following statements into an arguable claim—i.e., a point that is debatable and shows (or implies) your analysis of or opinion about the topic of your essay or a particular paragraph. To be an effective thesis statement, the claim must be narrow enough to allow you to fully support it within the context of the essay and broad enough to enable you to write more than a paragraph or two about it. Topic sentences work in a similar way, except your claim needs to apply to the entire paragraph.

For each statement below, indicate the problem and rewrite it to make a stronger claim. When finished, compare your answers to the sample answers under Course Documents.

1. Gore had a good argument, but I don’t agree with him.

Problem: It’s too short and does not have very much explanation

Rewrite: As Gore had many persuasive arguments, I disagree because many of his points are not validated and because global warming is a myth.

2. Obviously Gore feels a lot of pent-up resentment about losing the 2000 presidential election.

Problem: This is not an arguable point and

Rewrite: After loosing the 2000 presidential election, Gore had a lot of resentment built up, but rather than dwelling on it he strove to continue to educate the population on global warming.

3. In this paper I will attempt to explain what Rachel Carson’s novel was about and how it relates to what Al Gore talks about.

Problem: they are stating what they are going to talk about instead of giving a general idea of what they are writing about

Rewrite: Rachel Carson’s novel has many comparisons to Al Gore’s documentary including how people slowly destructing the planet, and their use of logos

4. In Chapter 7, Carson uses many appeals to ethos, pathos, and logos.

Problem: to generic

Rewrite: In chapter 7, Carson uses many
