Hi everyone,
I joined my last organisation through my college placement and worked almost a year there. But when I was settling in, I had to lookout for career advancement and upon extensive research I realised that a single bcom hons degree won't take me far, either MBA or professional course like CA/CFA is required to excel in the Industry.
So, as I've already cleared my foundation in dec21 i thought of giving it another try, couldn't clear while managing my job, decided to quit. Things went downhill there, not as I planned. CA ain't for me, it's tough and requires lock in and unmatched dedication coupled with discipline. and after a whole year I'm still there where I started and now I've a gap year. that too, in the early stages of my career. I don't wanna waste my time anymore and planning to enter into the corporate workspace soon.
Following are my questions:-
Will this affect my candidature in the ATS?
Even if I pass the ATS, will HR consider me?
If you've any leads, please help a brother out!

I really have to question all of these people Charles likes to surround himself. Let's forget how attached he was to Louis Mountbatten, Jimmy Savile, Peter Ball, Mark Bolland and concentrate on his current hires: Daily Mail editor Tobyn Andreae, Harry fangurl Rhiannon Mills, this dubious Theo Rycroft. A shame they all have a discernible stink to their name.

One in ten first-time buyers are buying homes outright with cash.
The estate agency Hamptons said that those who did not need a mortgage made up 10 per cent of first-home buyers between January 1 and May 13 this year — up from 8.2 per cent in the same period of 2023.
The estate agency Savills said that gifts and loans from the Bank of Mum and Dad totalled £9.6 billion in 2024, which would make it the UK’s seventh-largest mortgage lender.
Emma Fildes, who runs the property buying agency Brickweaver, said: “Many first-time buyers, fortunate enough to have help from the Bank of Mum and Dad, are capitalising on price falls. Being chain-free and cash-only gives them a massive advantage over potential borrowers even if their offer may be slightly lower.
“This year, several of my clients were first-time buyers who, aided by parental funds, bought properties with cash in north and south London. Both opted to buy houses to avoid paying stamp duty again within a few years if they needed to scale up.”
Charlotte Mantle from Strutt & Parker estate agents said: “I’ve been helping a young man in his early 20s with his house search in Chelsea. While he’s living in a house share in south London after university, his parents are gifting him a budget of over £3 million for a three to four-bedroom house with a garden.
“The caveat is that the parents are really driving the search; they’re attending every viewing, have the power of veto, and are likely to make the final decision.”
Mortgage rates have risen since the war in Iran began at the end of February. It has pushed up oil prices, raising fears of higher inflation, which drives banks to raise rates. The average two-year fixed rate has gone up 0.91 percentage points to 5.75 per cent, according to the financial data firm Moneyfacts.

Hey folks,
I’m a data-driven Financial Analyst with 1 year of core FP&A experience, and I specialize in doing two things: building high-fidelity financial models and completely dismantling manual reporting bottlenecks.
I’m currently looking for my next role where I can help a scaling startup build robust financial frameworks from the ground up, rather than just maintaining legacy spreadsheets.
I am based in Delhi/NCR but completely open to remote opportunities. If your team needs someone who bridges the gap between technical data architecture and strategic finance, let’s talk.
Feel free to DM me or drop a comment and I can share my portfolio of valuation models and other work samples.
Thanks for reading!

Last night I saw this laptop for Rs 2,09,990, and this morning itself it became Rs 2,39,900 thousand, and then I looked at it again this morning for some time and it was again showing Rs 2,09,990 ( i will attach screenshot in the comments) and then after some time it got removed and boom back to 2,39,900!!!
dude wt the heck is going on!!!
Is this some kinda of scam or glitch If I had ordered it immediately when it was priced at 2.09 lakh, would I have been scammed? Would they have sent me a different product? Like i have seen vids in where they order something else and got something else! Ofc on Flipkart!!

The room is quiet. Until they speak again, the only sound is coming from the florescent light on the other side of the mirror.
"That's what he told you? He actually said all of that to you?"
"Chief, I realise-"
"It is Deputy Chief Constable, Detective Inspector. And I am glad that you realise how the story you just told me sounds, I'm especially looking forward to the follow up where you explain why instead of having him sectioned, you interrupted my briefing to the Prime Minister so I could come listen to it."
"Deputy Chief Constable, my orders were to investigate any information from the public and that man in there is the only person who has contacted us and not mentioned UFOs or Jimmy Savile's fucking ghost. Even more then that, he got the count almost exactly correct."
The conversation lulls and the room is quiet again. The buzz of the bulb swells until for a split second it goes from distracting to uncomfortable to painful and then it shatters into a million little shards being fired in every direction.The mirror separating the two men from the bulb is now a spider's web of stress cracks surrounding perforations in the barrier.
"Detective Inspector, how close was he?"
`------------------`
"I can't. I can't do this. I'm really sorry but I just can't do this. If we go live and I try to tell people what happened I'm not going to be able to hold it together."
"Listen to me, *you can do this.* You won't have to be live for long and you only have to do it once. You're the only presenter in the building right now and it'll be at least 30 minutes until anyone else can get here."
"Steve, I'm sorry. I really cannot do this."
"For god's sake Alice, please? Can you please just do this, not for me but for all those families? You know how much the media attention helped when Angela was-"
"Angela was dead when they found her, Steve! The media attention didn't mean shit and you know it!"
Alice's phone rings, interrupting the argument.

|DCC BLACK|I am DCC Ryan Black of the London metropolitan police.|
|ANDREWS|I am Mia Andrews, Security Service liaison for the London metropolitan police.|
|DI HASTINGS|In accordance with standard procedure, I am again asking the suspect to identify themselves.|
|INDIVIDUAL A|Come on! We've been over this<sup>1</sup> but I can't tell you my name. Are you going to take me seriously now?<br>|
|ANDREWS|Sir, it would be a lot easier for us to take you seriously if you would tell us the truth.|
||You clearly are involved in, whatever kind of terrorist plot this is.|
||If you start telling us what actually happened instead of continuing with this lie, we can help you.|
||Assuming you've not killed anyone and you start co-operating now, we can make sure you don't get charged.|
||We can protect you from whoever you were working with.|
|BLACK|Come on mate, you clearly want to help us or you wouldn't have turned yourself in. Do the right thing.|
|INDIVIDUAL A|I'm telling you the truth!|
||I know it sounds crazy and I know I shouldn't have done it|
||The only way we can save those children is if you help me.|
|HASTINGS|Sir, I should not need to explain to you that we cannot kidnap a TV presenter's child and give them to you.|
||That's before we even get to the fact your plan is to drown them as sacrifice for the devil.|
||**One minute of silence**|
|ANDREWS|Plus.|
||Alice Puruell's daughter is dead.|
||So...|
|BLACK|Keep up Mia, our friend here helped resurrect her.|
|ANDREWS|Oh, of course. I forgot|
|BLACK|So we just have to pop round to hell and do a quick return|
|ANDREWS|I've not checked hell's return policy recently, have you?|
||**One minute of silence**|
|HASTINGS|If this is a bad joke or some kind of mental episode, you've been really unlucky.|
||The only reason we think you know anything about this is how close you got to the number of missing children.|
||You were one under.|
|INDIVIDUAL A|If I was so close, why don't you believe everything else I'm saying?|
1: There appears to be a small error with the recording at this moment. There is an approximately three second gap in the recording that is unacknowledged during the interview.

"*Thank you* for doing this, and I'm really sorry for bringing up Angela."
"That's okay Steve. Angela is fine." She speaks like she's in a dream, as if she was entirely somewhere else.
***You're watching BBC news.***
It's hard for her to keep it together.
***Within the last hour 20 schools in the greater London area have reported the disappearance of every student below the age of 10.***
***These disappearances are believed to have been extremely sudden, with some teachers reporting that their entire class vanished while they had stepped out into the hallway for less then a minute.***
She wants to cry tears of happiness.
***The metropolitan police are requesting that anyone with any information call the following number, and that any information leading to the rescue of the children will be rewarded. 020 7946 0100.***
It wasn't her daughter they dredged out of the river. It was just a look-a-like.

This week's update is up! Quick update.
📽️ [https://youtu.be/yoVH\_44xb\_E](https://youtu.be/yoVH_44xb_E)
📄 [https://www.linkedin.com/pulse/azure-weekly-update-15th-may-2026-john-savill-fyspc/](https://www.linkedin.com/pulse/azure-weekly-update-15th-may-2026-john-savill-fyspc/)
* [ACA Express (01:07)](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yoVH_44xb_E&t=67) \- Azure Container Apps is a great capability to host rich containerized apps and microservices without having to manage Kubernetes or other components BUT there is some provisioning time and overhead. Sometimes you just want a fast app hosting, especially with agents that spin up fast on demand. Azure Container Apps Express is built exactly for these simpler requirements and removes infrastructure decisions. You bring a container image and you are done. It provisions in seconds, sub-second cold starts, scale to zero with per second billing. So run your agents, MCP servers, SaaS apps, APIs. You name it!
* [AVNM rule impact analyzer (02:28)](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yoVH_44xb_E&t=148) \- This is a great capability as its always scary to implement changes and what may break. This enables you to simulate changes to your security admin rules (that are applied before any vnet NSG) and will show how existing traffic would be impacted. You could then modify to avoid actual traffic impact.
* [Azure Files SMB MI support (03:15)](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yoVH_44xb_E&t=195) \- Azure Files SMB has Entra integration for authentication and now also work with managed identities that are tied to resources and avoid the use of secrets or keys enhancing security. For example your pipeline, container workload, process in a VM can now all access an Azure Files share using their resource-based identity.
* [ANF large file support (04:21)](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yoVH_44xb_E&t=261) \- Azure NetApp Files now supports file sizes up to 64 TiB for regular volumes. This is important when you look at certain workloads, for example hosting a virtual hard disk for virtualization. This works across all service levels.
* [Azure Service Bus Premium with AZ 4 9s SLA (04:42)](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yoVH_44xb_E&t=282) \- For Azure Service Bus Premium namespaces that are deployed in regions with Availability Zones you now have a 4 9’s SLA for the service.
* [Azure Service Bus Premium confidential compute (04:57)](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yoVH_44xb_E&t=297) \- Also the use of confidential compute (where the workload is encrypted in use, i.e. CPU and memory) is now available in Korea Central and UAE North. This gives the complete, hard-ware backed and attested encryption from storage, over the network to that actual processing.
* [Azure Monitor dashboards with Grafana (05:42)](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yoVH_44xb_E&t=342) \- Grafana brings really powerful visualization capabilities via their dashboards and these can now be integrated into the Azure Portal. This means you get all the Azure Monitor telemetry alongside telemetry from Prometheus (think containers), data explorer, resource graph and more.
* [Codename MDASH (06:10)](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yoVH_44xb_E&t=370) \- Many customers I talk to ask about getting access to Claude Mythos Preview which thanks to its advanced coding capabilities is great at finding vulnerabilities and its very locked down as part of project glasswing. Microsoft now have a Multi-moDel Agentic Scanning Harness, MDASH which uses over 100 specialized AI agents to discover, debate and prove exploitable bugs end-to-end and out performs the single model Mythos. The great news is you can sign-up and utilize as part of a private preview. [https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/security/blog/2026/05/12/defense-at-ai-speed-microsofts-new-multi-model-agentic-security-system-tops-leading-industry-benchmark/](https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/security/blog/2026/05/12/defense-at-ai-speed-microsofts-new-multi-model-agentic-security-system-tops-leading-industry-benchmark/)
* [Grok 4.3 in Foundry (07:18)](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yoVH_44xb_E&t=438) \- Grok 4.3 is xAIs latest flagship model designed for agent and productivity focuses workflows. It has great tool calling, instruction following and lower hallucinations. 200K token context window and is available as global standard deployment. Obviously being in Foundry you can then take advantage of all the governance, security, private networking, identity, agent hosting, memory as a service, evaluations and more that you actually need to make AI apps trusted and usable.

Off the top of my head, the last (was it only?) time Howard was in the UK was back in the 90s, but would be interesting to know if he met Savile (whose early claim to fame was as a radio DJ, giving them something in common) during his trip.
Please note: if you respond with "What's he saying, Robin?" you are an unoriginal cocksucker.

Hey everyone, definitely a rough day today. I failed the AZ-104 with a 635 (and I have a pretty extensive background working with Azure professionally).
I spent about 3 weeks preparing by working through Microsoft’s official material, their practice assessments, and Savill’s YouTube content. Unfortunately, that alone including my experience was not enough. The real exam was very different in terms of question style, scenarios, and edge cases, and I felt pretty unprepared for that shift.
Looking back, I honestly think using Tutorials Dojo alongside the official material probably would have pushed me over 700 for a first attempt pass.
So that's my goal now is to take another 2 weeks (reattempt set for 5/27) while bolstering myself with TD's study material.

And because he didn't realize that, Claw now has a big problem.
# SUSSEX SECURITY- BRITISH HQ REQUEST MORE DETAILS - NOT GOOD NEWS
[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XIC3XI6Yb2A](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XIC3XI6Yb2A)
Claw is always trying to deflect negative headlines, without understanding why she's getting them.
So she throws out rumors that she'll probably renew her vows with Harry, or that she follows astrology... irrelevant things, which, yes, make good headlines for the tabloids. That's what Claw is after: tabloid headlines.
But it turns out that when she does that, she doesn't realize how wrong she can be.
Because guess who's asking about Claw's trip to Chicago and trip to Paris?
https://preview.redd.it/8fd6rg7gdl0h1.png?width=203&format=png&auto=webp&s=748d87713d1d23c7a3a69e7478ed6783976bb1cc

The last person the Harkles would want to ask about it
https://preview.redd.it/l5dmr9sbel0h1.png?width=640&format=png&auto=webp&s=3c6f2eb96e66ddcfab3f8c9529a5ce1777e1d09b
Shabana Mahmood, Minister of the Interior since September 2025
And the person to whom Harry wrote, in his own handwriting, a letter demanding that his security case be reviewed, a letter that she displays in her office, so everyone knows that she has it.
But the tremendous conflict Labour has entered into, along with the fact that neither the police nor Ministry officials want to provide security for the Harkles (and this isn't gossip; several royal reporters have confirmed it), has forced the Minister to do something she didn't want to do: justify why Harry deserves 24/7 taxpayer-funded security. The Minister is now faced with the problem of having to explain what Paul Saunders, the digital communications manager for the Invictus Games, said: that the organization did not pay for Prince Harry's trip to Ukraine. Instead, it was funded and organized by the Foreign Office and the Ministry of Defence (WTF) under Labour's Foreign Secretary, Yvette Cooper, and John Healey, UK Secretary of State for Defence, and paid for by UK taxpayers.
So the Minister has found herself obliged to investigate the matter, because Claw has deemed it inappropriate to make it public. So, what's the difference between this and traveling to the UK?
Giving Harry 24/7 security under the current circumstances would be detrimental to the monarchy because people will perceive it as the King's doing, which isn't the case. But it would be disastrous for Labour.
Sean, in another video about the UK's political situation after the elections, points out that Starmer is really worried because a new batch of documents about Epstein is coming. In other words, more revelations about what Mandelson did. And yes, of course, more about Andrew. But what hurts Starmer the most is Mandelson.
# TENSION IN MARRIAGE - REAL REASON IS THIS
[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4aNrm\_3MgBQ](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4aNrm_3MgBQ)
Claw loves seeing herself on magazine covers. She loves it when she's dating someone from the Montecito staff; she loves commenting when she sees herself on magazine covers.
https://preview.redd.it/f7exn1okil0h1.png?width=1200&format=png&auto=webp&s=ab78ee6b2996434b01824c946c6252f961002226
She doesn't mind being on magazine covers for something negative; what she doesn't realize is that she's never on them for things she's actually done well.
But she loves that because deep down she's seeking validation from others. It's part of her insecurity.
So she doesn't feel so good when what she sees as a headline is "another Meghan flop." Like what happened with Australia, which has been "another Meghan flop." Claw doesn't understand it; what she sees is that social media and traditional media outlets are actually sabotaging her, preventing her from succeeding.
She believes that we are all influenced by negative reviews from YouTubers like Sean or from the Daily Express. She believes that if the press reported accurately what she says about her products, people would buy more As Ever products.
https://preview.redd.it/avj4jhocml0h1.png?width=1039&format=png&auto=webp&s=e37b02ef098d818ea9d05ea6b0c6460c47a3b576
Claw has been pressuring Harry to appear with her in Instagram videos. Her advisors told her, "You should be on TikTok," but she chose Instagram because she knows more about social media than anyone. She wanted them to be exactly like William and Kate's Kensington Royal account. Harry doesn't want to; he doesn't like social media. Claw loves it because she's constantly showing herself off.
To lure Harry into that world, she initially asks him, "Honey, look at this. Do you like it? Can I put this on my Instagram, honey?"
But since Harry doesn't want to appear in those videos, Claw complains that he's preventing her from celebrating "the joy of being a mother" by showing her children more.
https://preview.redd.it/snzomoqjol0h1.png?width=208&format=png&auto=webp&s=ed0f59e6aab04ed7437c6c97b83e3ae3f670a2e7
Claw is complaining to Harry that his refusal to support her business and his prevention of children appearing in videos is hindering her great company, As Ever.
https://preview.redd.it/jhgnq9ozol0h1.png?width=400&format=png&auto=webp&s=8f3e999f5656d2362c286ae1871e6bab0f6b4cca
Claw wants to exploit her children because she believes that's what William and Kate do when they publish photos of their children.
And since Harry doesn't want that, he doesn't want to expose his children, she does it anyway, and she no longer asks him about what she posts on Instagram: she simply uploads it and Harry finds out the same way he finds out about everything: through Neil Sean's channel 🤭🤭 Actually, yes, in part, but Harry finds out when everything is already published, not because she asks for his advice.
Sean says the tension in the marriage isn't because of another woman or anything like that. It's that Harry can't control his wife, nor can he control her addiction to social media.
# MARKLE PRINCE GEORGE & THIS YOU DON’T KNOW
[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Npgo-LXYwsI](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Npgo-LXYwsI)
Much of Harry's problem with Claw stems from the fact that she puts herself first, ignoring much of what he's going through.
And Claw's constant comparisons to William and Kate make it impossible for Harry to ignore the good relationship William has with his children, especially George.
https://preview.redd.it/zk2iqz4qql0h1.png?width=862&format=png&auto=webp&s=6767891b991bb1e4ca6cd43fc8fbcaec3c6bdb18
Harry wants to show that he has this kind of relationship with Archie and Lil' D; he wants to take Archie to rugby matches and have them seen together, but Claw doesn't want that. She's refused those images. She wants people to see her as the great mother.
The problem is that Harry doesn't grasp that what he's really trying to do isn't to show a good relationship, but to imitate one.
Just like he wanted to do with Sir David Attenborough. Because Harry wanted his greeting to be shown on that BBC special. But it turns out the initial idea was for Archie to either greet Sir David or ask him a question.
Exactly, just like George and his siblings did in 2020. The difference is that they actually know who Sir David is and they love his shows (like my siblings and I loved Jacques Cousteau and kids in the 2000s loved Cesar Millan or Steve Irwin).
https://preview.redd.it/4uv9ugb7sl0h1.png?width=447&format=png&auto=webp&s=3dc3d134db3994f78fd8f6b6f0462e3a7773d161
Archie is supposed to be interested in nature... we don't know if that's true, we'll never know because we have no idea about that boy. Not even Harry does. But the fact is that Harry's idea, which perhaps would have been accepted by the BBC for that program because it would have been Archie's introduction to the world, didn't happen because Claw didn't want it. And because Harry was confronted with his own hypocrisy. He doesn't want to show his children, but he would have put Archie on display in that program just to get some attention.
https://preview.redd.it/eyrwlyiitl0h1.png?width=512&format=png&auto=webp&s=152ddeccff15b9ebdcf0e79c3e3298f26bf316ec
# WE ARE DONE -WILLIAM REJECTS HARRY’S OFFER
[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tcy9Gfkl1WE](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tcy9Gfkl1WE)
Under these circumstances, even if William wanted to talk to his children about Harry (which he doesn't want to do), how could he? Even we get headaches from the things Harry says and does. Those children would be even less able to understand that they have an uncle who has insulted their parents but wants them to have a relationship with cousins they've never met because their uncle doesn't want them to see them...
https://preview.redd.it/udqizz7cul0h1.png?width=220&format=png&auto=webp&s=d0179c07978cee950a88162c39247d215f16b817
You know what? Screw it! I'm going to tell the story Sean's telling and then I'll get back to the Harkles gossip.
Because the Beatles gave their last concert on the roof of 3 Savile Row in 1969. Well, it wasn't a licensed concert, so the police showed up.
https://preview.redd.it/pk9dtmyxul0h1.png?width=768&format=png&auto=webp&s=571af9cdd34f654000712d5aced2d513ed454531
One of those police officers was someone that many people would recognize: Ken Wharfe, that same Ken Wharfe, who was Diana's bodyguard.
https://preview.redd.it/1nr50ju8vl0h1.png?width=764&format=png&auto=webp&s=44ef01d03965c9c6904981c1cd850d006a0f7f4d
He told Sean, when Sean interviewed him, that the police officers who went to that building didn't want to do it, but they had orders to end the concert because there were neighbors in the area complaining about the "noise" and that because of it they couldn't have lunch.
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
I live across from the National Stadium of Chile and I've fallen asleep to the sound of Run to the Hills by Iron Maiden 🤘🤘🤘🤘
Sean tells this anecdote because that's how some relationships are: tenuous. But Harry's relationship with William's children is even more tenuous than that story with the Beatles.
William has absolutely no tolerance for Harry. He's neither interested nor concerned. Harry feels isolated? That's his problem. The Sussex children are isolated? That's his problem. In his blunt and unvarnished way, William confronts Harry, telling him that this is what he's brought upon himself.
Harry doesn't see it that way. He sees his children as isolated from everything William's children have. And he doesn't consider it fair because, as Sean has said several times, Harry has sent them gifts. Harry sees himself as a caring and concerned uncle who is being unfairly mistreated. Of course, Harry doesn't consider fabricating the story that the King has had chats with the Sussex children to be a problem.

Harry is upset because he sent presents to Charlotte and Louis, but William didn't send anything to Archie. The cards and gifts arrived at Palace... but it seems they were returned to the sender. Harry thinks he is trying to be a good uncle, but William is too stubborn to understand.
People are asking why the BRF isn't reacting to what Harry is doing. Well, William is reacting: he's refusing to see Harry. And according to what Sean has heard, this is hitting Harry really hard, because he's seeing that they've reached the point where no matter what Harry does, William isn't interested in having any contact with Harry or for his children to have any contact with Harry's children.
According to what Sean has heard, especially after the incident with the civil servant who wants to fix things between William and Harry, William doesn't want this relationship fixed. He's done. He's through. After what Harry and Claw said about Kate, whom he absolutely adores, 100%, and having a loving and close-knit family, which is what he always wanted in life, William is really happy with his life. There's no room for Harry.
In fact, Sean is right: Harry is the one now begging to come back. He's holding up a "remember me" sign. And Sean says: yes, Charles and William remember him, hence the reason the door remains firmly closed.
Okay, gossip is out!

# POST SCRIPTUM!!!
Since Harry didn't get what he wanted, he still tried to get his way.

Mark Savage Music Correspondent 3 hours ago.
The Beatles are turning the building where they played their last ever gig into an exhibition space, where fans can experience seven floors of memorabilia and never-before-seen archive material.
A Grade II listed mansion, 3 Savile Row served as the band's headquarters between 1968 and 1972 - and they recorded their final album, Let It Be, in the basement.
Sir Paul McCartney told the BBC that he wanted fans to have an official Beatles destination in London.
"Tourists come to England and they can go to Abbey Road, but they can't go inside \[and\] it snares up the traffic and the drivers get really annoyed," he said. "So I thought this was a terrific idea."
Officially titled "The Beatles at 3 Savile Row", the experience is due to launch in 2027. Fans can [register for tickets on the band's website](https://www.thebeatles.com/3SavileRow) from today.
The building will include a recreation of the basement studio where Let It Be was recorded, and the opportunity to relive the Beatles' iconic rooftop concert on exactly the spot where it happened.
Other details are yet to be revealed, but Sir Paul gave an idea of how the venue will operate.
"Well, you go in on the ground floor, and there's memorabilia and stuff like that.
"Then you work your way up through the building, and \[see\] various things that happened here and there, until you get to the top, where you go out on the roof and pretend to be a Beatle."
Naturally, the building will also contain a shop for licensed Beatles products.
"You know, a retail thing... but you want that," Sir Paul said.
"You even want that at the National Trust, you know? You've got to have a souvenir."
The Beatles' rooftop concert, which took place in January 1969, was the last time anyone saw the Fab Four perform in public - but it nearly never happened.
Director Michael Lindsay-Hogg, who filmed the show, recalled that some of the members wanted to pull the plug at the last minute.
"George didn't want to do it and Ringo started saying he didn't really see the point"
"Then John said, 'Oh, \[expletive\] it - let's go do it.'"
So the band climbed five storeys and created pandemonium in the middle of the day, as fans realised what was happening and rushed to vantage points on the streets and rooftops of neighbouring buildings.
They played for 42 minutes - in a set including Don't Let Me Down, I've Got A Feeling and two versions of Get Back - before complaints from local tenants forced the police to pull the plug.
The footage was recently restored and cleaned up for Peter Jackson's Get Back documentary; and a blue plaque on 3 Savile Row commemorates the gig.
# 'Such a trip'
The building was home to many notable figures before the Beatles set foot on the doorstep.
Among its former residents were General Robert Ross, who orchestrated the burning of the White House in Washington DC in 1814; and Lady Hamilton, who was known as Admiral Nelson's lover.
The Beatles continued to use it as a base for their company, Apple Corps, after they broke up in 1970.
George Harrison even immortalised the fans who used to gather outside the front door in the song Apple Scruffs, from his post-Beatles album All Things Must Pass.
"*You've been stood around for years / Seen my smiles and touched my tears / Apple Scruffs / How I love you.*"
The band sold the building in 1976 and it was later repurposed as a store for the fashion company Abercrombie and Fitch.
Sir Paul said the idea to move back in was proposed by Tom Greene, who became CEO of Apple Corps in 2025, after previously working on the Harry Potter franchise.
"He's a live wire and he's bringing a lot of energy into looking at what the Beatles mean, and what people want these days from us," said Sir Paul.
In a statement, Ringo Starr said revisiting the property recently was "like coming home". Sir Paul called it "such a trip".
"There are so many special memories within the walls, not to mention the rooftop. The team have put together some really impressive plans and I'm excited for people to see it when it's ready."
Fans can already see Beatles memorabilia at Liverpool's Beatles Museum and the nearby Beatles Story - but neither are officially licensed by the band.
People also flock to Sir Paul's childhood home in Allerton, Strawberry Fields and the house where George Harrison was born in Wavertree.
The locations are so popular that, last week, [a code of conduct was introduced for tour guides and visitors](https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/articles/c87q1vj91pzo), in order to protect local residents.
Meanwhile, both Sir Paul and Ringo Starr are releasing new music.
Ringo's 22nd album, Long Long Road, came out last month and reached number two in the UK's country music charts.
Sir Paul's new album, The Boys of Dungeon Lane, will follow at the end of May.
It finds the star in reflective mood, singing songs about his childhood in Liverpool and the early days of the Beatles.

This is up there for one of the most disingenuous arguments people employ to discredit MJ's accusers. This was commented on a sub linking the new 60 Minutes interview.
If you really follow that line of inquiry to its (il)logical conclusion, this family has more evidence than any of Savile's or Cosby's accusers, yet you don't get people lamenting the lack of 'evidence' in those cases. It's especially nonsensical considering that cases like these RARELY leave absolute direct evidence. The only comparable case I can recall is R. Kelly, where there was video proof and people still managed to defend him and he was initially aquitted.
It's almost depressing how ghoulish these people can be and it's really soured me on a lot of people in the wake of the movie's release.

(not really, not actually begging)
It looks like the island off Crinan is for sale. A snip at £1.25M. Anyone want to chip in?
I've often wondered what was on it–looks amazing, though maybe difficult to get a pint of milk.

It was a bleak, windy weekday morning in November, somewhere on the old, east coast of the United States of America, and the university campus was greyly empty. The weather forecast had called for freezing rain, but nothing had, as yet, been precipitated.
The office was cold.
Four men were seated there: three with grey hair, sweaters and bespoke Savile Row blazers, and one much younger, in his final year of high school.
The air was a mix of handmade ox-blood leather boots, gold and the U.S. mint after it had printed its final series of thousand-dollar bills.
The grey-haired men had names like Eberhardt, Tomkens and Winchester-Barnes, and savagely noble faces straight out of a 19th-century oil painting; but, for the sake of simplicity, let us imagine they all had one face, the same face, and same single name: Algernon.
The younger man’s name was Winston Suture.
He had applied for fall enrollment.
He had written a peculiar but powerful essay about why he should be considered, and the Algernons had invited him to an interview.
“I must preface myself by saying that we do not often receive such confessions from prospective students,” said one of the Algernons. “Many of our graduates do, indeed, go on to perform criminal acts, but usually these are of a financial, or corporate, kind. Yet here you are, so young and already confessing to a much more brutal and shocking crime: murder. And not once but twice.” He paused. “We are, understandably, intrigued.”
“However,” said another Algernon, “we are also a storied and liberal institution, with a fine history, and thus cannot afford to sully our reputation. I therefore ask: the boy you profess to having killed—what race?”
“The fifteen-hundred, sir,” said Winston.
“Ah, middle distance. I ran the five-thousand myself,” said Algernon.
“What motive?” asked another.
“Because he was a better runner than me, sir.”
“It does—this sport killing—evince a particular kind of iron will to succeed at all costs,” mused the third Algernon.
“It primes a young man,” said Algernon.
“Galvinizes him,” said Algernon.
“Forges him,” said Algernon.
“The killing blow itself becomes a kind of moral crucible.”
“A weaker man would have, at that final, precipitous, moment, stepped back.”
“—shown mercy.”
“I did show mercy, sir. By then, I’d already paralyzed him. He could barely talk or form a coherent thought, really. He was convulsing.”
“So you had already done enough to better him as a sportsman.”
“Yes, sir.”
Algernon took off and cleaned his glasses. “And yet, you killed him still.”
“I did.”
“That demonstrates character. Virtue, of the ancient kind.”
“A principled firmness,” said Algernon.
“Thank you, sir.”
The second Algernon smiled. “Tell me, Mr. Suture. What would happen if I picked up this telephone, here, and dialed the number for the police: if I said, ‘Officer, I have beside me a young man who has just confessed to murder…’?”
“They would deny it, sir.”
“Deny it?”
“The whole thing. The murders, the investigations. They would deny the victims ever existed. My father, you see, plays bridge with the Chief of Police. As I indicated in my essay—on page three, paragraph two, I believe—the families of both victims have been duly compensated and have signed non-disclosure agreements. They have agreed never to talk about the murders, which didn’t happen, of their children, who never existed.”
“Murders, which you swear to us, did occur,” said Algernon.
“Most definitely,” said Winston.
“I must say, it is the fact that you have managed to cover up the killings that is most impressive to me. More impressive than the murders themselves. Anyone may become a killer. You become one by the fact of killing, which any ape can do. Yet to have managed the aftermath so well, planned the *post-mortem* stratagems so meticulously, and executed them so single-mindedly, without emotional encumbrance. It is almost Homeric.”
“Dantean.”
“...de Cervantesian.”
“Although the murders themselves,” interjected Algernon, “are impressive, too. Creative, varied. Ironically modernist, if one may say so.”
“Thank you, sir.”
“Now tell us about the girl, Mr. Suture. Why did you kill her? Clearly, she was not an athletic rival of yours.”
“She was just a woman,” said Winston. “A dumb fucking bitch.”
The Algernons went silent.
The silence lasted for a long time while the wind outside rattled the wooden shutters of the tall office windows. Then the Algernons smiled, chuckled. “Who hasn’t strangled a woman during his lifetime?” said one of the Algernons. “Or hit one.” “When she deserved it.” “Don’t they all deserve it… sometimes?” “When they withhold,” said Algernon. “Historically, they have learned to take it,” said another. “Biologically—” “We speak, of course, solely of the game of blackjack,” said Algernon, as the first drops of rain tapped loudly against the window glass.
“Perhaps I just went too far,” said Winston.
“Everyone makes mistakes,” said Algernon. “I, myself, have made the same mistake—of going too far—in a game of blackjack.”
When the interview was finished, Winston crossed the university campus, walked along a street for a while, then got into a car, a battered Toyota, in which his father was waiting.
“Was one of them the one?” his father asked.
His breath smelled of cheap coffee. Winston looked at the photograph he held.
“Yeah.”
His father fought back tears, balled the photograph up and kissed the medallion hanging around his neck. It contained a gem made of the ashes of his wife. She had died of cancer caused by an unreported leak by a leading biochemical corporation. The insurance company had denied coverage. The media had rejected the story. The police had refused to investigate. The state judge had dismissed the civil case.
All involved alumni.
“Did they actually buy your bullshit?” asked Winston's father.
“I think so,” said Winston.
**That May, two heavily armed men walked into a commencement on campus and opened fire, killing everyone in attendance.**
**Then they walked out.**
**They were never found. They were never identified. Their motive remains entirely unknown.**

“Now tell us about the girl, Mr. Suture. Why did you kill her? Clearly, she was not an athletic rival of yours.”
“She was just a woman,” said Winston. “A dumb fucking bitch.”
The Algernons went silent.
The silence lasted for a long time while the wind outside rattled the wooden shutters of the tall office windows. Then the Algernons smiled, chuckled. “Who hasn’t strangled a woman during his lifetime?” said one of the Algernons. “Or hit one.” “When she deserved it.” “Don’t they all deserve it… sometimes?” “When they withhold,” said Algernon. “Historically, they have learned to take it,” said another. “Biologically—” “We speak, of course, solely of the game of blackjack,” said Algernon, as the first drops of rain tapped loudly against the window glass.
“Perhaps I just went too far,” said Winston.
“Everyone makes mistakes,” said Algernon. “I, myself, have made the same mistake—of going too far—in a game of blackjack.”
When the interview was finished, Winston crossed the university campus, walked along a street for a while, then got into a car, a battered Toyota, in which his father was waiting.
“Was one of them the one?” his father asked.
His breath smelled of cheap coffee. Winston looked at the photograph he held.
“Yeah.”
His father fought back tears, balled the photograph up and kissed the medallion hanging around his neck. It contained a gem made of the ashes of his wife. She had died of cancer caused by an unreported leak by a leading biochemical corporation. The insurance company had denied coverage. The media had rejected the story. The police had refused to investigate. The state judge had dismissed the civil case.
All involved alumni.
“Did they actually buy your bullshit?” asked Winston's father.
“I think so,” said Winston.

It was a bleak, windy weekday morning in November, somewhere on the old, east coast of the United States of America, and the university campus was greyly empty. The weather forecast had called for freezing rain, but nothing had, as yet, been precipitated.
The office was cold.
Four men were seated there: three with grey hair, sweaters and bespoke Savile Row blazers, and one much younger, in his final year of high school.
The air was a mix of handmade ox-blood leather boots, gold and the U.S. mint after it had printed its final series of thousand-dollar bills.
The grey-haired men had names like Eberhardt, Tomkens and Winchester-Barnes, and savagely noble faces straight out of a 19th-century oil painting; but, for the sake of simplicity, let us imagine they all had one face, the same face, and same single name: Algernon.
The younger man’s name was Winston Suture.
He had applied for fall enrollment.
He had written a peculiar but powerful essay about why he should be considered, and the Algernons had invited him to an interview.
“I must preface myself by saying that we do not often receive such confessions from prospective students,” said one of the Algernons. “Many of our graduates do, indeed, go on to perform criminal acts, but usually these are of a financial, or corporate, kind. Yet here you are, so young and already confessing to a much more brutal and shocking crime: murder. And not once but twice.” He paused. “We are, understandably, intrigued.”
“However,” said another Algernon, “we are also a storied and liberal institution, with a fine history, and thus cannot afford to sully our reputation. I therefore ask: the boy you profess to having killed—what race?”
“The fifteen-hundred, sir,” said Winston.
“Ah, middle distance. I ran the five-thousand myself,” said Algernon.
“What motive?” asked another.
“Because he was a better runner than me, sir.”
“It does—this sport killing—evince a particular kind of iron will to succeed at all costs,” mused the third Algernon.
“It primes a young man,” said Algernon.
“Galvinizes him,” said Algernon.
“Forges him,” said Algernon.
“The killing blow itself becomes a kind of moral crucible.”
“A weaker man would have, at that final, precipitous, moment, stepped back.”
“—shown mercy.”
“I did show mercy, sir. By then, I’d already paralyzed him. He could barely talk or form a coherent thought, really. He was convulsing.”
“So you had already done enough to better him as a sportsman.”
“Yes, sir.”
Algernon took off and cleaned his glasses. “And yet, you killed him still.”
“I did.”
“That demonstrates character. Virtue, of the ancient kind.”
“A principled firmness,” said Algernon.
“Thank you, sir.”
The second Algernon smiled. “Tell me, Mr. Suture. What would happen if I picked up this telephone, here, and dialed the number for the police: if I said, ‘Officer, I have beside me a young man who has just confessed to murder…’?”
“They would deny it, sir.”
“Deny it?”
“The whole thing. The murders, the investigations. They would deny the victims ever existed. My father, you see, plays bridge with the Chief of Police. As I indicated in my essay—on page three, paragraph two, I believe—the families of both victims have been duly compensated and have signed non-disclosure agreements. They have agreed never to talk about the murders, which didn’t happen, of their children, who never existed.”
“Murders, which you swear to us, did occur,” said Algernon.
“Most definitely,” said Winston.
“I must say, it is the fact that you have managed to cover up the killings that is most impressive to me. More impressive than the murders themselves. Anyone may become a killer. You become one by the fact of killing, which any ape can do. Yet to have managed the aftermath so well, planned the *post-mortem* stratagems so meticulously, and executed them so single-mindedly, without emotional encumbrance. It is almost Homeric.”
“Dantean.”
“...de Cervantesian.”
“Although the murders themselves,” interjected Algernon, “are impressive, too. Creative, varied. Ironically modernist, if one may say so.”
“Thank you, sir.”
“Now tell us about the girl, Mr. Suture. Why did you kill her? Clearly, she was not an athletic rival of yours.”

I had a breakdown at a London tube station, like scream-crying, hyperventilating and shit (you \*know\* it's fucking bad when no less than 6 people asked me if I was ok \*IN LONDON\* lol, like we are antisocial bastards that don't engage with strangers). Being in the hospital was fine at first because in the hospital I had vodka stashed in an evian bottle in my suitcase they didn't know about, so I just watched Simpsons on my phone and chatted to the very helpful policeman who was very kind to me. And some nice psychiatrists. And before that some polices that I had to push really hard to not give up name of rapey uncle... I felt bad because she was so kind and well intentioned. But I can't blow up my mammy's life like that.
Fucking WDs this morning were absolutely HELL\* and I couldn't leave. They gave me 30mg librium and then 30mg more but it was nowhere near enough (sure a bunch of you can relate), I was shaking like a leaf and pranging out of my mind.
On the plus side, my mum came to rescue me and 2 separate doctors said in front of her that its dangerous to stop cold turkey, THANK GOD, I was worried she'd think I was just being a degenerate alkie to not go cold turkey.
Though tbf half my family are alkies - some of whom are no longer alive due to booze - and when they said it, she was like I know, don't want her getting the DTs. So that's a massive relief. I'm drinking now until the shakes stop and I regain a modicum of sanity.
I was in a bad way yesterday. Like I don't know if I'd have actually killed myself, I think I'm probably too afraid, but oh my god I wanted to. Just wanted it to stop. It was a non zero possibility.
I was supposed to go home to Belgium yesterday. Instead I'm stuck sharing a building with fucking rapey uncle for the next week. At least my mammy is here. I lost my bag with my passport and ALL MY REMAINING VALIUM in Manchester, which is what precipitated the whole thing.
Sorry I feel like my breakdowns are usually funnier than this. This is a bad one, the worst I have felt in years.
\*I feel like a right pussy saying that because I'm sure you've all been through worse, like much worse. Even my ex got left on the floor of A&E for multiple hours in hardcore WD not even given water. Luckily because of location I was taken to one of the best hospitals in London so I really shouldn't fucking complain.
Once I regain sanity I'm going to the Irish consulate to obtain emergency travel documents.
Tonight I'm just gonna drink until the horror stops.
This post wasn't even slightly amusing so here's Christy Moore, Delirium Tremens:
Thank you for reading my non-entertaining breakdown.
Sorry for any previous comments on posts that I didn't reply to yet. This breakdown has been coming a while and I've just had nothing in the tank. Clinging on by fingernails. Every time I try and valium detox I fuck it up and make it worse ultimately.
Anyways, here's this:

My favourite line "and I dreamt I was in a jacuzzi with that old hoor in number 10!!\*. And then I knew I'd never, ever, ever drink again!!"
\*(it was the 80s so that was Margaret Thatcher. Best friend of massive paedo and necrophiliac Jimmy Savile)
Love Christy Moore!! ❤️
Thank you if you made it this far x

Hello!
I will be moving to London in August and will be sharing with a friend. We are looking for a 2 bed (hopefully 2 bath) in East London, with a top budget of £2,750 excluding bills.
Our top areas are Aldgate, Aldgate East, Bethnal Green, but we are willing to look at Hackney, Islington, Dalston, Whitechapel.
A family member advised giving our info to estate agents who may send link to properties before they hit the market, or will at least make the search a little easier. I know all the main agencies (Dexters, Savills, Foxtons, etc), but are there any East London agencies to consider? There are so many coming up on google maps, so wondering if anyone may have a list already prepared.
Thanks!

I don't have the trim kit but was able to get a yard each of what was called French collar canvas & collar felt from a tailor supply here. So am wondering if I should just cut the under collar and felt in one piece on the bias instead of two and seaming them together since there is plenty of material. Or is there a benefit to seaming the canvas and under collar felt?
Also They had two different collar canvases so got both not knowing what I was doing yet. The one they call heavy weight seems more like the one in the video. & can be stretched and pulled on the bias. The other one is slightly thinner but very stiff and very difficult to stretch on the bias. Wondering what the different types are use for?
I am using a cotton & wool blend suiting this first time around to learn on.

The latest report by Savills, quoted over the weekend in the FT, confirms what we've been seeing on the ground. Landlords ARE exiting. The stats show that the number of ex-rental properties on the market has increased by 28% over the last 2 years and that is a clear trend line rather than a one-off.
Savills research also examined whether buy‑to‑let properties listed for sale ultimately changed tenure, finding that 14% of those which sold were purchased by other landlords, effectively saying that 86% are not returning to the private rented sector.
At the same time stock advertised to rent has fallen by 17% over the last two years.
The press release is below but the stats are aligning with the anecdotal evidence that we see every week among landlords and independent agents we work with. The PRS is shrinking at the moment. It is hard to see how that trend will reverse given that the number of ex-rental properties on the market is growing still.

**TL;DR:** UEX.US already lets you trade crypto and physical-backed gold from one account, with fiat on-ramps via bank transfer, card, PayPal, and Zelle. The next frontier — tokenized real estate and tokenized stocks — is already live on competitor platforms like Propy, RealT, and the mechanics are more boring than people think. Here's a breakdown of where things stand, where they're going, and why "access" is the actual battleground, not "size."
**The setup: why this matters**
Look at the comparison everyone is finally waking up to:
Bitcoin: \~$1.6T market cap
Gold: \~$32T market cap
US Stocks: \~$72T market cap
Global Real Estate: \~$390T (Savills, 2025 — residential, commercial, agricultural combined)
Real estate is the largest store of wealth on the planet. It's also the most illiquid. Selling a property takes months, costs 5–10% in friction, and is gated by geography, paperwork, and capital requirements. Most people will never own institutional-grade real estate because the entry ticket is too high.
Crypto solved liquidity. Stocks solved fractional ownership. Real estate has had neither — until now.
The thesis behind a Universal Exchange USA (UEX.US) is simple: **one account, every asset class, 24/7 markets, fiat in and out.**
**How UEX works today: crypto + gold + fiat rails**
UEX.US is a Wyoming-incorporated, MSB-registered digital asset exchange that launched in 2025. What's already live:
**Crypto spot trading.** Hundreds of digital assets, off-chain order matching, fast execution, low fees. Standard CEX mechanics — order book, custodial wallets, cold storage for the bulk of reserves, and 100% reserve backing of customer liabilities per their attestations.
**Physical gold and silver.** This is the unusual part. You can buy real gold and silver directly inside the exchange, alongside your BTC and ETH. No separate bullion dealer, no shipping logistics, no second account. Same login, same balance.
**Fiat on/off-ramps.** USD via bank transfer, debit/credit card, PayPal, and Zelle. This is what most "crypto-only" exchanges fail at — getting money in and out smoothly. UEX leans hard into this.
**Crypto-backed loans.** Up to 90% LTV. You deposit BTC/ETH/ADA as collateral, you receive USD or stablecoins. You don't sell, you don't trigger a taxable event, you keep upside exposure. This is the same playbook used by Ledn, Nexo, etc., wrapped inside the exchange.
**Savings.** Up to 5% APY on fiat, up to 3.5% on crypto, paid daily, no lockups. Not FDIC insured (it's a non-bank product) but the no-lockup design is the differentiator vs. staking platforms.
So today, a UEX user can hold dollars earning yield, swap into Bitcoin, take a loan against it, and buy physical gold — all without ever leaving the platform. That's the foundation. Now the interesting question: what gets added next?
**Tokenized real estate: how the mechanics actually work**
This is where the "Universal Exchange" thesis gets real. Tokenized real estate is not a buzzword anymore — there are working platforms with hundreds of millions in assets, regulated, audited, and paying out rental income on-chain.
The model is straightforward once you strip out the jargon:
**Step 1 — SPV / LLC wrapper.** A property (say, a $400K rental duplex in Detroit) is purchased and placed inside a Special Purpose Vehicle, almost always a Delaware or Wyoming LLC. The LLC's only purpose is to hold that one property. This is a 50-year-old legal structure. Nothing exotic.
**Step 2 — Tokenization.** A smart contract is deployed (Ethereum, Polygon, Algorand, or Solana, depending on the platform) that mints, say, 8,000 tokens. Each token = 1/8,000th of the LLC's equity. Each token is legally a security under U.S. law (Reg D, Reg S, or Reg A+ depending on the offering).
**Step 3 — KYC/AML.** Buyers complete identity verification before purchasing. Because these are securities, the smart contract enforces compliance — non-whitelisted wallets literally cannot receive the tokens. This is the part DeFi maximalists hate and regulators love.
**Step 4 — Distribution.** A property manager collects rent. The platform converts rent to USDC (or whichever stablecoin), and a smart contract distributes it pro-rata to token holders. RealT pays weekly. Lofty pays daily. No quarterly statements, no waiting for checks.
**Step 5 — Secondary market.** This is the killer feature. With traditional real estate, your "exit" is a 90-day listing, 6% in fees, and a buyer's mortgage approval. With a tokenized property, you list your tokens on the platform's secondary market and someone else can buy them in minutes.
That last point is what the OP image was getting at: **physical real estate purchases are illiquid; tokenized real estate is liquid.** You can hold a fractional position in a Manhattan apartment, an Austin warehouse, and a Lisbon Airbnb simultaneously, collect three separate yield streams in stablecoins, and rebalance any of them in an afternoon.
**Who's already doing it (so we know it works)**
This part is important — none of this is theoretical:
**RealT** — pioneer in U.S. residential tokenization, primarily Detroit, Cleveland, Jacksonville. Over $100M in tokenized properties. Minimum investment $50. Weekly stablecoin yield.
**Lofty** — multi-market U.S. residential on Algorand. Daily rent distributions. Active secondary market.
**Propy** — focuses on the transaction layer: on-chain deeds, blockchain-based closings, and full-property NFT transfers. They've completed full real estate sales recorded on-chain in multiple U.S. states.
**HoneyBricks** — institutional-grade multifamily commercial, accredited investors only, larger ticket sizes, looks/feels like a tokenized REIT.
**Aspen Coin** — historic precedent. The St. Regis Aspen Resort tokenized roughly $18M of equity in one of the first SEC-compliant security token offerings. Investors paid in USD, BTC, and ETH.
The Deloitte projection that gets cited a lot: tokenized real estate goes from \~$300B in 2024 to **\~$4 trillion by 2035**, roughly 27% CAGR. Whether that's right or off by half, the direction is settled.
**How this plugs into UEX**
The interesting part is that UEX already has every primitive needed to add tokenized RWAs:
**KYC/AML pipeline** — already required for fiat on-ramps and MSB compliance.
**Custody infrastructure** — already holding crypto and physical gold.
**Order matching engine** — already handling spot crypto trades; same engine can match security tokens between whitelisted addresses.
**Fiat rails** — already in place for both directions.
**Stablecoin support** — already there, which is exactly the rail tokenized rent gets paid on.
What's missing is a **broker-dealer or ATS license** (or a partnership with one — this is how most platforms do it: integrate a regulated partner like Securitize, INX, or tZERO that handles the securities side, while the exchange handles the trading UX).
The likely path:
**Phase 1** (now): crypto + gold + fiat.
**Phase 2** (near-term): tokenized stocks via partnership. A U.S.-regulated equivalent would more likely be tokenized share equivalents through a registered partner, not perps.
**Phase 3** (further out): tokenized real estate via integration with platforms like Propy or a Reg D/A+ issuance partner. Buy fractions in a Miami condo with USDC sitting in your UEX savings account, collect rent paid back into the same account, sell the tokens on the secondary market when you want out.
The end state is one account where you can rotate between BTC, gold, S&P 500 exposure, and a fractional stake in a rental property — same login, same fiat rail, same tax statement at year end.

There's virtually very little gap between the two sets of people I mentioned.
Savile, Sean Combs (Diddy) and R. Kelly have all reached near memetic status due the way the accusations against them are spoken about, and while Trump hasn't he is generally speaking extremely despised.
So I ask, what makes Michael so different?
Mar 10, 2019
The slogan of [MJInnocent](https://www.mjinnocent.com/) boldly declares: **“Facts don’t lie. People do.”** This website, which claims to be dedicated to protecting the legacy of Michael Jackson, presents a staunch defence against the allegations made by Wade Robson and James Safechuck in Leaving Neverland.
While the “MJInnocent Team” professes unwavering support for all abuse victims, including survivors of child sexual abuse, it’s worth noting that their campaign began prior to the documentary’s release. They even secured funding for advertisements promoting their contentious stance on a limited number of London transport buses.
This raises an important question: does the MJInnocent Team genuinely prioritise the well-being of victims and the pursuit of truth, or are they part of the cult of celebrity—believing their favourite star should be glorified at all costs?
Furthermore, the majority of information initially published on MJInnocent was neither original nor based on independent research. Instead, it was largely copied from the Jackson Estate’s “Petition to Compel Arbitration” against HBO’s parent company, WarnerMedia, for allegedly breaching a [“Non-Disparagement Clause”](https://mjnotinnocent.wordpress.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/04/petition-to-compel-arbitration.pdf) by airing Leaving Neverland.
Here’s a saved snapshot of how MJInnocent appeared on 8 March 2019: [archive.fo](https://archive.fo/eXQ30)
Below, I’ll examine what they’ve stated and assess whether any of it holds up to scrutiny. Text highlighted in grey with a blue line is quoted directly from MJInnocent, followed by my response to each claim.
>Robson and Safechuck have sworn under oath that Michael Jackson NEVER did anything inappropriate. Robson was questioned in detail during Michael Jackson's criminal trial in 2005 and repeatedly denied any wrongdoing by Michael Jackson.
[MJInnocent.com](http://MJInnocent.com)
Most people are well aware that Wade and James defended Jackson during their childhood. It’s also widely known that Wade, as an adult, continued to support Jackson during his criminal trial and in subsequent television interviews.
In contrast, James did not publicly defend Jackson in 2005, nor did he participate in any media interviews at the time.
Both Wade and James have since explained their reasons for defending Jackson before and during the Leaving Neverland documentary. They described how Jackson groomed and manipulated them into believing they were his closest and most cherished friends. They also spoke of feeling complicit in the sexual activities and fearing imprisonment if any details were revealed.
Here’s a compelling interview with Victoria Derbyshire: [bbc.co.uk](https://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/p07299d6)
It’s important to remember that Wade and James were children at the time of the abuse, while Jackson was an adult. They idolised him during their formative years and emphasised that—aside from the abuse—he was affectionate and kind towards them. This kindness was observed by their parents, who placed complete trust in Jackson and even left their children in his care during all-expenses-paid shopping sprees and holidays.
While some may question why Wade continued to defend Jackson into adulthood, it’s not uncommon for victims to deny abuse. Child Molesters: A Behavioural Analysis explores this phenomenon in detail.
>Because victims of acquaintance exploitation usually have been carefully seduced and often do not realize or believe they are victims, they repeatedly and voluntarily return to the offender. Society and the criminal-justice system have a difficult time understanding this. If a boy is molested by his neighbor, teacher, or clergy member, why does he “allow” it to continue? Most likely he may not initially realize or believe he is a victim. Some victims are simply willing to trade sex for attention, affection, and gifts and do not believe they are victims. The sex itself might even be enjoyable. The offender may be treating them better than anyone has ever treated them. They may come to realize they are victims when the offender pushes them out. Then they recognize all the attention, affection, and gifts were just part of the master plan to use and exploit them.
[Child Molesters: A Behavioural Analysis](https://mjnotinnocent.wordpress.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/11/nc70.pdf)
The portrayal on MJInnocent appears to set a standard for how victims should behave, yet it overlooks the complex dynamics of abuse cases. For instance, Michael Jackson made serious allegations against his father, citing physical and mental abuse. Despite this, as a wealthy adult, he chose to live at home with his parents until his late twenties. This raises the question: was Jackson lying, or did he still love his father despite the abuse?
Similarly, in the case of R. Kelly—a suspected sexual predator for over two decades—it’s notable that many victims only recently spoke out in the [Surviving R. Kelly](https://www.nytimes.com/2019/03/08/us/child-sexual-abuse-questions.html) documentary. It would be unreasonable to label them liars for not disclosing the abuse immediately.
The author of MJInnocent, likely aware of Jimmy Savile and [Operation Yewtree](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Operation_Yewtree), must recognise that many victims of historic sexual abuse come forward only when they feel ready.
A German study found that the average age at which child sexual abuse victims disclose their [experiences is 52](https://www.clinicalkey.com/#!/content/medline/2-s2.0-24669770), suggesting that further allegations against Jackson could still emerge.
Anyone who watches the documentary—particularly the final 30 minutes—can see how both men remained emotionally attached to Jackson before and even after his death. James explained that he couldn’t defend Jackson in 2005 because he saw him as a bad man, yet he couldn’t bring himself to testify against him either. Wade, too, was initially reluctant to defend Jackson, but his mother urged him to do so, saying that if Michael had done nothing wrong, it was his moral duty to speak up.
It’s clear that both men wrestled with conflicting emotions for years and ultimately could no longer live a lie.
>In 2011, Robson quit his role as director of the film Step Up 4 and was rejected for the lead choreography job in the Michael Jackson themed Cirque du Soleil show. It was following this rejection that he suddenly realised he had been abused.
[MJInnocent.com](http://MJInnocent.com)
This claim is entirely false. In reality, it was the Jackson Estate that approached Wade to be lead choreographer—a role he initially accepted. He later withdrew due to the demands of another project (Step Up 4) and an emotional breakdown. When Wade later expressed interest in returning, Cirque du Soleil chose to appoint someone else.
For more details, see [post 17.](https://mjnotinnocent.net/blog/b/p17/wade-robson-cirque-du-soleil.html)
>Previous versions of Robson's story state that he did not come forward with his claims any sooner because he was ashamed. This was then changed to not coming forward because he had repressed the memories of abuse and the memories only resurfaced following a breakdown. Robson's current version is that he always knew what had happened but didn't realise it was wrong, despite also claiming that Michael Jackson told him he had to lie about what they were doing otherwise they would both go to prison and also being questioned in detail about sexual abuse in the 2005 trial.
[MJInnocent.com](http://MJInnocent.com)
https://reddit.com/link/1t37egg/video/kd0kzr51t1zg1/player
This claim has circulated repeatedly since Wade first disclosed the abuse. However, no credible sources support the idea of repressed memories—a point Wade emphatically clarified in the following [Today Show](https://www.today.com/video/choreographer-michael-jackson-sexually-abused-me-30450243877) interview:
>Robson's first course of action was to try and shop a book but when this failed, he launched a creditor's claim against the Estate of Michael Jackson for millions of dollars.
[MJInnocent.com](http://MJInnocent.com)
Although Wade considered writing a book, he ultimately chose not to pursue it. He believed that seeking justice through legal channels was a more ethically responsible way to hold Michael Jackson accountable for the abuse he suffered. It is important to emphasise that Wade did not attempt to sue the Jackson Estate as a consequence of an unsuccessful book proposal. In contrast to any assumptions of financial motivation, one could argue that if Wade’s intention had been to profit from the situation, it would have been far more beneficial for him to defend Jackson rather than accuse him of child sexual abuse.
See [post 6](https://mjnotinnocent.net/blog/b/p6/james-and-wade-easy-payday.html), which debunks the notion that Wade and James are simply chasing a quick payout.
>These accusations have been made after Michael Jackson passed away. The law does not currently protect the deceased from defamation and, therefore, Robson and Safechuck are free to attack Michael Jackson and make whatever claims they want against him without fear of legal repercussions for defaming him.
[MJInnocent.com](http://MJInnocent.com)
Whether Jackson is alive or deceased is immaterial. In 1994, he reached a substantial multi-million dollar settlement and later invoked the [Fifth Amendment](https://www.latimes.com/archives/la-xpm-1994-09-16-me-39356-story.html) in relation to the case. Likewise, during his 2005 criminal trial, he was given the opportunity to offer a full explanation for his "sleepovers" with young boys, yet chose not to. This invites scrutiny of his attitude towards being perceived as a paedophile, as well as his behaviour following the events of 1993.
This issue also extends to the companies owned by Jackson, which played a role in facilitating access to the boys through arrangements involving security, flights, taxis, hotel bookings, and similar provisions.
Both Wade and James have sought justice through the legal system, only to be thwarted initially by the statute of limitations and subsequently by the courts’ refusal to hold Jackson’s companies legally accountable.
It is worth questioning whether the estate truly wishes to demonstrate that Wade and James are dishonest through a fair legal process, or whether it is more concerned about the potential fallout for its highly profitable enterprise.
In the end, the consequences of one’s actions tend to surface over time. If an adult repeatedly invites young boys into their bed and refuses to cease such behaviour, those consequences will inevitably catch up with them—even posthumously.
>In his lawsuit, Safechuck claims he only realised he was abused after seeing Robson had filed a multi-million dollar lawsuit against the Michael Jackson Estate. However, in the documentary, Safechuck indicates that he made his mother aware of these allegations as early as 2005 and his mother states that she danced when she heard that Michael Jackson passed away in 2009.
[MJInnocent.com](http://MJInnocent.com)
Does MJInnocent genuinely believe that James should have waited a full decade after Wade disclosed his abuse, or is it more plausible that James felt safer and more likely to be believed when speaking out alongside another survivor?
It’s worth emphasising that Wade and James were not allowed to discuss their cases with one another, and the Leaving Neverland documentary was filmed with each man independently. Any suggestion of a coordinated effort to fabricate allegations is entirely baseless.
As for the claim regarding James’s mother dancing upon hearing of Jackson’s death, it’s clear that MJInnocent is making baseless assertions without having properly watched the documentary—if at all. In 2005, James told his mother he would no longer defend Jackson, as he believed him to be a bad man. While he did not explicitly disclose the abuse at that time, Stephanie drew her own conclusions without pressuring her son to speak. Upon learning of Jackson’s death, she expressed relief, believing he would no longer be able to harm another child. Although she did not know with certainty that her son had been sexually abused, she strongly suspected it by that point.
>Safechuck hired the same attorneys as Robson and filed copycat claims against the Michael Jackson Estate.
[MJInnocent.com](http://MJInnocent.com)
Michael Jackson employed similar tactics of grooming and seducing young boys with gifts and attention, eventually inviting them into his private quarters and bed. These boys were frequently discarded and replaced with newer companions once they reached puberty. Surely, by the logic of MJInnocent, Jackson’s behaviour was, at the very least, deeply suspicious.
Regarding Wade and James using the same law firm—yes, that is entirely accurate. However, there is no conspiracy at play. This is perfectly legal, and it’s reasonable to assume they sought the most competent legal representation available within their means. After all, it’s highly improbable that Jackson chose Johnnie Cochran and Thomas Mesereau at random in 1993 and 2005.
>Robson and Safechuck are claiming hundreds of millions of dollars in their lawsuits and, as the Michael Jackson Estate pointed out, therefore have hundreds of millions of reasons to lie.
[MJInnocent.com](http://MJInnocent.com)
Several fansites claim that Wade and James are each seeking around one billion dollars, reflecting the reported value of the Jackson Estate. However, this assertion is incorrect. Wade and James have not specified any monetary amount they intend to pursue in their civil complaint. Should the case proceed to trial and result in a favourable outcome, any compensation would be determined by a judge and jury—not by the claimants themselves.
Again, refer to [post 6](https://mjnotinnocent.net/blog/b/p6/james-and-wade-easy-payday.html) for more information.
It is also worth highlighting that the author of MJInnocent fails to acknowledge that, not long ago, the Jackson family attempted to sue AEG for roughly one billion dollars in connection with Michael Jackson’s death. Yet, curiously, no suggestion of conspiracy seems to arise in that instance.
>Robson has been caught lying repeatedly during these lawsuits and has concealed evidence not only from the court, but even from his own lawyers. The judge has even found that "no rational fact finder could possibly believe Robson's sworn statement.
[MJInnocent.com](http://MJInnocent.com)
This is, without question, a complete falsehood. There are no documents, nor any official statements from a judge, that contain such wording.
It is a fabrication by the Michael Jackson Estate, which—through its own documentation released during arbitration proceedings with HBO—put forward these entirely misleading claims. These assertions have no connection whatsoever to any judicial ruling or official statement.
For more details, refer to [post 10](https://mjnotinnocent.net/blog/b/p10/wade-robsons-declaration.html).
>Safechuck has also lied during his lawsuit. He provided dates when the abuse allegedly occurred but these were factually proven false in court. For example, Michael Jackson was not with Safechuck on some of the dates given.
[MJInnocent.com](http://MJInnocent.com)
This statement comes across as rather vague. Could MJInnocent clarify precisely what James is alleged to have lied about?
>So far four different lawsuits have failed but they continue to pursue their claims and are appealing the dismissal of their lawsuits.
[MJInnocent.com](http://MJInnocent.com)
Wade and James have consistently pursued legal avenues to have their cases heard, making multiple attempts that have yielded similar outcomes. This is an indisputable fact. As previously mentioned, their cases were not dismissed due to a lack of credibility, but rather on the grounds of the statute of limitations and the legal inability to hold Jackson’s companies accountable.
Read [post 7](https://mjnotinnocent.net/blog/b/p7/why-was-wades-lawsuit-dismissed.html) and [post 8](https://mjnotinnocent.net/blog/b/p8/why-was-james-lawsuit-dismissed.html) for a more in-depth explanation.
It is worth noting that Manchester City Football Club recently established a compensation fund and issued a formal apology to all victims of [Barry Bennell](https://www.theguardian.com/football/2019/mar/11/manchester-city-apology-barry-bennell-victims-fund)—a predatory paedophile youth coach whose behaviour bore striking similarities to that of Michael Jackson.
Clearly, there is a growing global recognition of the importance of compensating victims of child sexual abuse—a principle that MJInnocent appears reluctant to embrace.
>Dan Reed, director of 'Leaving Neverland', has admitted several times that he chose not to interview anyone who could have provided a different take on these stories. He did not want anyone to be able to discredit the story he wanted to tell. He also did not do any investigation to determine the veracity of the claims made by Robson and Safechuck nor does he provide any evidence whatsoever other than the word of two admitted perjurers. It is clear that the intention of this film is to present Michael Jackson as a paedophile without reference to any of the mountains of exculpatory evidence, all of which the Michael Jackson Estate has said it would have been happy to share.
[MJInnocent.com](http://MJInnocent.com)
Dan Reed made it clear well before the release of Leaving Neverland that his intention was to give Wade and James the opportunity to share their story, as they were the ones with direct, lived experience.
Both spent extensive one-on-one time with Jackson, reportedly hundreds of nights. In contrast, individuals such as the Jackson Estate or family did not share these experiences and would have offered only a limited and inherently biased perspective, portraying Jackson as entirely innocent and admirable.
Viewers of Leaving Neverland can attest to the documentary’s respectful tone. The filmmakers deliberately chose not to dwell on Michael Jackson’s well-documented struggles with drug dependency, body image issues, or controversial moments—such as the balcony incident involving his son, "Blanket." Instead, they focused on providing a platform for the two men who claimed to be victims, allowing their voices to be heard without distraction.
>In the "documentary", Robson suggests that Michael Jackson abused another of his friends, Brett Barnes. Barnes was never provided with an opportunity to participate in this documentary or to comment on the claims made about him. He vehemently denies that he was ever abused by Michael Jackson and to this day maintains that Michael Jackson was one of the best friends he ever had. Brett Barnes's attorneys have threatened to sue HBO unless they remove all references to Brett Barnes from this documentary.
[MJInnocent.com](http://MJInnocent.com)
Wade Robson never implied in the documentary that Brett Barnes was sexually abused.
Both Brett and Macaulay are included in the documentary for several reasons. Firstly, to illustrate the recurring pattern of boys in Jackson’s life and the transitions between them. Secondly, to highlight Jackson’s self-serving behaviour. When James began puberty, he was abruptly replaced by the younger Brett. Brett was also chosen to go on tour instead of Wade, despite Wade’s desire to go. Jackson told Wade that children weren’t permitted on tour. Thirdly, Jackson had promised Wade a prominent role in the “Black or White” video, but that part ultimately went to Macaulay Culkin. These are the key reasons why both Brett and Macaulay appear in the documentary.
Importantly, the documentary includes a disclaimer at the end of its first part, clearly stating that both Brett Barnes and Macaulay Culkin have denied any criminal conduct by Jackson towards them.
>Michael Jackson was investigated not only by the police and child protection agencies but was also secretly investigated by the FBI over a period of 10 years. The publicly available FBI report concluded that there was absolutely no evidence of any wrongdoing on Michael Jackson's part. Read the FBI report here.
[MJInnocent.com](http://MJInnocent.com)
The FBI never carried out an independent investigation into Jackson—not even briefly. Their role was strictly limited to providing technical support to the Santa Barbara and Los Angeles police departments when requested.
This is confirmed by the opening paragraph on the FBI’s own website:
>Michael Jackson (1958-2009) was a famous singer and entertainer. Between 1993 and 1994 and separately between 2004 and 2005, Jackson was investigated by California law enforcement agencies for possible child molestation. He was acquitted of all such charges. The FBI provided technical and investigative assistance to these agencies during the cases. The Bureau also investigated threats made against Mr. Jackson and others by an individual who was later imprisoned for these crimes. These investigations occurred between 1992 and 2005.
[vault.fbi.gov](https://vault.fbi.gov/Michael%20Jackson)
The FBI even released a podcast categorically denying any involvement in investigating Jackson independently: [fbi.gov/audio-repository](https://web.archive.org/web/20240303024821/https://www.fbi.gov/audio-repository/news-podcasts-thisweek-michael-jackson-files.mp3/view)
For more info read [post 1](https://mjnotinnocent.net/blog/b/p1/michael-jackson-fbi-files.html) and [post 3](https://mjnotinnocent.net/blog/a/p3/truth-about-the-fbi-investigation.html).
# Conclusion
In essence, virtually everything posted on MJInnocent is a direct lift from the Jackson Estate’s legal letter to HBO’s parent company, WarnerMedia. It’s a lazy effort, devoid of genuine research, relying instead on copied quotes without any attempt to verify their accuracy.
The quotes simply recycle familiar conspiracies and misinformation, suggesting that Wade and James are solely motivated by money and have fabricated their accounts purely for financial gain.
However, as demonstrated above, every claim either has a reasonable explanation or can be shown to be a complete fabrication, crafted to vilify Wade and James while glorifying Jackson.
It also reveals the extent to which the Jackson Estate will stoop to protect its lucrative cash cow — resorting to underhanded tactics and spreading misinformation to discredit and demonise others.
It’s deeply sad — and frankly pathetic — that grown adults continue to behave this way. Rather than acknowledging that Jackson was a deeply troubled individual who repeatedly engaged in behaviour that would be deemed unacceptable for anyone else, the MJ Estate refuses to admit it for fear of damaging their profits. Meanwhile, fans remain so blinded by celebrity worship that even if the truth were staring them in the face, they would still deny Jackson was a paedophile.
**Update:**
The two middle-aged individuals behind MJInnocent are long-standing Michael Jackson fanatics: [Anika Kotecha](https://www.gettyimages.co.uk/detail/video/michael-jackson-innocent-adverts-to-be-removed-from-news-footage/1135989281?adppopup=true) and [Seany O’Kane](https://www.belfasttelegraph.co.uk/entertainment/news/derry-man-seany-okane-behind-london-michael-jackson-innocent-campaign/37911562.html). Anika featured in the 2005 Channel 4 documentary [Wacko About Jacko](https://mjnotinnocent.net/blog/a/p32/michael-jackson-documentaries.html), which followed several Jackson fans across Europe and the United States. Seany, a Northern Irish man and brief Big Brother contestant in 2007, was a prominent presence throughout Jackson’s 2005 trial—frequently seen holding placards and vocally supporting the singer.
Both were responsible for placing controversial banners on several London buses shortly before the release of Leaving Neverland, funded via a GoFundMe campaign. The banners were swiftly removed following widespread backlash. Notably, The Survivors Trust—an organisation supporting victims of rape and child sexual abuse—publicly condemned the advertisements as highly inappropriate.
After his spell on Big Brother, O’Kane gave an interview to the UK tabloid [The Daily Star](https://www.pressreader.com/uk/daily-star-sunday/20070624/281483566967164), where he made a string of highly questionable remarks. He boasts narcissistically about his sex life, claiming to have slept with around 30 women, while insisting that he currently prefers intimacy with men. The most controversial confession, however, concerns the loss of his virginity: he says he was 14 when it happened with someone **“quite a bit older than me and certainly wasn't a girl.”** Such an admission raises serious questions about his grasp of consent and the boundaries of acceptable behaviour.

Beyond thankful to have this one behind me!
Exam was more difficult than I expected, and my training materials did not go into the depth required to comfortably pass. Clicked the submit button fully expecting to fail and somehow finished right on the line at 700. If it wasn't for MS Learn in the exam I guarantee I would have failed, but a pass is a pass in my book.
My exam was 46 questions and a case study with 7 questions, and I finished with about 10 minutes remaining.
Materials used:
CBT-Nuggets
MS Learn path
John Saville exam cram
TutorialsDojo
Don't waste your time with CBT-Nuggets. It gives an ok high-level overview of the services and what disaster recovery should look like, but not nearly enough depth on the different options available. This was provided by my work, and I would not recommend wasting your time with this unless you can churn through it in 2-3 days.
TutorialsDojo is ok. I found their exams for AZ-104 to be much closer aligned, the 305 exam is like taking 4 TD questions and rolling them into one, with curveballs about services you probably haven't seen before. Covered all their material, and utilized MS Learn to drill into my weak areas. Before booking the exam I was scoring roughly 92-93% on the randomized question bank.
John Savill's exam cram video was fantastic, if not a little dated. Some service names have changed but not enough to write it off. Highly recommended to watch it at least two times and take notes.
Next up is probably CISSP. Wanted to do the AZ-500 but putting it off until the new course is released.

For those who don’t know this is Jimmy Goldstein, a slum lord who is an NBA megafan. He is often court-side at Lakers games. He doesn’t do interviews, but it’s widely known that he made his money by buying trailer parks all over and doubling/tripling rent.
Hey guys, I am a long-time lurker who just passed the AZ-104 with a score of 791/1000. The exam surprised me so I want to share my experience.
Some context. I have 2 years experience working as a full-stack developer in a Microsoft Azure environment. I assist with simple administrative duties and implement Infrastructure-as-Code via Bicep. This definitely made certain parts of the certification easier for me.
I completed the AZ-900 in September 2025 and attended an instructor-led AZ-104 training course through my work in March. I started doing self-study and preparation early April. These are the resources that I used:
* Microsoft Learn AZ-104 Content: I went through this content 3 times.
* Whizlabs AZ-104 Training: I watched all the training videos, completed \~30% of the practical labs, and passed 5 of the practice exams.
* John Savill's AZ-104 Study Cram: I watched this two days before the exam to refresh my memory.
In my opinion, the Microsoft Learn content is the most important study tool. The instructor-led training and Whizlabs training were easy to digest, but I found they often skimmed over the nitty-gritty details. They are good for getting a high-level overview, but they should be used to supplement the Microsoft Learn. Similarly, Savill's Study Cram video is a great refresher, but it does not go into enough detail to fully prepare you.
The Whizlabs practice exams were okay, but they did give me a false sense of security. I was able to consistently score above 90% scores on these tests. Personally, I found them significantly easier than the actual exam. and found them easier than the actual exam. The Whizlabs practice exams often asked questions at a high-level, which allow you to score easy marks. Most of the real example questions went into more granular details about the services and resources, which made them harder and more time consuming.
The practical labs are good when you use them correctly. If you just follow the lab steps, you can smash through them and learn nothing. I tried to complete the challenges without reading the steps and took the opportunity to read the different parameter and configuration options for the resources. I believe there are also challenge and project labs that do not hold your hand, but I did not have enough time to complete these.
As I mentioned, there were some things that surprised me during the exam:
1. Several questions ask for the exact syntax or command names for things like ARM templates, AzCopy commands, PowerShell commands, and CLI commands. This caught me off guard because I did not have these memorized.
2. The exam put a big emphasis on backup section. Considering how short the learn module is, I felt slightly under prepared. I recommend reviewing all the different backup services and understand how they interact with different resources.
3. I struggled with questions related Azure Container Instances and App Services. I understood them at a high-level, but the exam asked multiple questions about specific configurations and properties that I was unfamiliar with. Spending some time creating these resources could help.
4. Throughout the exam, multiple questions asked about things that I did not remember or know. Fortunately, the exam allows you to access the Microsoft Learn documentation to jog your memory. When studying, I recommend forcing yourself to use the Microsoft Learn documentation because that is all that you will have access to.
I hope these tips can help someone! I plan on completing the AZ-700 next...

Answers on a postcard, please!
My husband and I want to go out as Sir Jimmy Crystal and Jimmima for Halloween. While looking for outfit inspo pics, I came across a few different Instagram posts saying it’s problematic to dress up as Jimmy Crystal due to his look being based on Jimmy Saville.
I don’t know if this is just an online take or something others do agree with? I don’t see an issue since it’s obviously a character and not Savile but wasn’t sure if I was in the wrong?
When I first saw Jimmy Crystal I immediately knew he was dressed like Saville but Saville’s story isn’t really common knowledge in the US so would other people think that? We also go hard for Halloween so it would def look exactly like Jimmy Crystal
Would us being a pair and obviously from the movie be fine? Am I totally overthinking this lol

Hey everyone,
I passed the AZ-104 two days ago and want to keep the momentum going by jumping into SC-300.
I’m looking for study material, but reading MS Learn is not my cup of tea. I learn much better through video courses.
Does anyone have recent recommendations?
Is John Savill’s SC-300 content still relevant for 2026, or is it too outdated, i know SC-300 was recently updated in April 2026?
Are there any solid Udemy courses or YouTube series that are updated for the current Entra ID objectives?
I’m a visual learner, so the more hands-on/video-focused, the better.
Thanks for the help!

Ok I know I'm like a month late, but I just listened to the full Savile series and had to add some interesting things. I'm part of Epstein Exposed, a site of people going manually through the files to try and properly sort/log everything (feel free to help https://epsteinexposed.com/). I've got a few thousand files under my belt, and can say, there are a LOT of similarities between Savile and Epstein.
Saviles diet of 2+ victims a day? Epstein had at LEAST 3 'massages' a day when at one of his residences, typically each a different girl (plus an actual masseuse on standby if he wanted a normal massage).
Philanthropy? A lot of the local girls Epstein would pick up from Florida were from low income families (he recruited through word of mouth at the local high school in Palm Beach). PLUS the girls he would ship in from Eastern Europe on a student or work visa that he would provide. Then there's the miscellaneous donations to science and education. Some for his weird race theories, others, it seems, to get more victims. He had several educational/children's trusts under his financial umbrella as well.
Marcus mentioned that they couldn't do a full Epstein Mount Rushmore of Evil because there just wasn't enough there, but woof. The more people help parse through this information, the sooner we'll get there.

It's time for a Lyric Challenge! Name this timeless, infectious masterpiece that perfectly pairs misery with joy; an upbeat, piano-driven, and emotionally rich track that stands as one of the best examples of 1970s pop-soul, showing this artist's ability to blend heartfelt emotion with a danceable rhythm. Based on the blurb and snippet of the song below please name the song and the artist. (BONUS POINTS if you can tell me what his legal name?) Please post your answer so I can see that you've played.(Here's a tip: I design the bonus questions to offer others to find out more facts about the song and the artist(s),...its not cheating, just enjoy the search.)
This song was released as a single on January 23, 1976. It waw featured on his self-titled debut album which was also released in 1976, to support the hit single. Co-written with producer Ben Findon, the song has a Motown-influenced sound and tells the story of a painful breakup. He famously wrote it after buying his first piano for £23 from a co-worker which he borrowed from his boss. He wrote the song while working as a pattern cutter at a fashion house on Savile Row. He admitted the tune closely resembled the Four Tops' 1965 classic "I Can't Help Myself". When the song was breaking into the charts, he was still working on a Ford assembly line, only leaving after hearing the song on Radio Luxembourg. This song remains a staple of his live shows and for many years was considered one of his definitive "breakthrough" moments in the music industry. This is the breakout hit that launched the career of this Trinidadian British singer. This original track is a classic anthem, blending soulful, heartfelt lyrics about heartbreak with an infectious, upbeat pop-soul rhythm. Driven by a bouncy piano, a punchy brass section, and Motown-inspired high-energy backing vocals, the song hides its sad lyrical story within a joyful, dancing groove. The song depicts the pain of a lover seeing his partner be unfaithful while he is helplessly still in love. This track served as a vital, high energy introduction for him, establishing him as a soulful performer with broad global appeal.
"You walk like a dream and you
Make like you're queen of the action
You're using ev'ry trick in the book
The way that you look
You're really something to see
You cheat and you lie to impress
Any guy that you fancy
But don't you know I'm out of my mind,
So give me a sign
And help to ease the pain inside me"

Whitlock picks up the story in an excerpt from his autobiography, written with Marc Roberty. “Eric thought it would be great for all of us to come over to Europe for a tour and fit in sessions for his album at the same time. Alan Pariser organized everything, along with Eric’s manager, Robert Stigwood, and we all flew over to England in early November 1969. Eric had generously invited all of us to stay at his country home, Hurtwood Edge, deep in the Surrey countryside. The whole of the Delaney & Bonnie & Friends entourage were there.”
“I flew over a couple days early with Jim Gordon,” Coolidge remembers. “We were all staying at Eric’s house, and we got settled in and took a long walk one day and came back that night, and when we walked into the room, Bonnie was so excited. She was sitting on the end of the couch just talking a million miles a minute, singing, and everybody was so excited that we were about to do this tour. We were so young and so good, and we all were just best friends. There was never any friction in the band. I think we all realized that we were in the right place at the right time. I had just gotten out of college, and I was on the road with what I considered to be the best rock band in the world. It was fabulous.”
Not only did Clapton kick in to get the band to the U.K., but he also made sure the members were properly outfitted, according to English Journalist Philip Norman (who later wrote Shout! The Beatles In Their Generation, which many still consider the definitive biography of the band). “When Delaney and Bonnie’s musicians arrived in London, Clapton gave them four amplifiers costing $500 each; these failed to provide sufficient power, so Clapton had another five air-freighted from Los Angeles,” Norman revealed. “\[R\]ecently he also paid $50 for a relic of the 1930s, a self-amplifying metal guitar halfway between a viola and a biscuit-barrel that he afterwards gave to Delaney.”
Clapton’s manager was equally magnanimous. “Delaney went a couple weeks early, and I came over with Sid Kaiser, one of our managers,” says Bonnie. “We arrived on the morning of my birthday, and that night Robert Stigwood threw me this huge birthday party at his mansion. It was wonderful. All the Bee Gees were there, and Lulu was there. Lulu had a big crush on Bobby Keys.”
Stigwood, says Whitlock, “was always an absolute gentleman, debonair, suave, and an all-around classy guy. Delaney and Bonnie were totally out of their league. They did not know what to do or say, so for once they were reserved. There was an aura around Robert that silently commanded respect. He was a lovely man and the very person responsible for us all being there.
“When we arrived at Eric’s house,” Whitlock continues, “we were set up in the front room for playing and rehearsing. Stigwood had booked some studio time for us, and Eric, at Olympic Studios in Barnes, a suburb of London. We managed to record around five or six numbers over a few days for Eric’s forthcoming solo album, but our minds were on the tour, and there really was not enough time to devote to the project. We were pretty busy having fun. Eric had bought a Safari Land Rover just to haul all of us around.
“Stigwood had organized a German tour with the Lippmann & Rau concert agency. This was really a warm-up for our important U.K. tour. Our band — and that’s how I looked at it too — on the German tour was Rita Coolidge, Bonnie, Tex Johnson the conga player, Delaney, Bobby Keys, Jim Price, Carl Radle, Jim Gordon, Dave Mason, Eric Clapton, and me. What an incredible band we were. Our first-ever appearance in Germany was for the famous Beat Club television show at Radio Bremen Studios, Bremen, on 26 November 1969. We were allocated a three-song set and played ‘Coming Home,’ our latest single, ‘Poor Elijah’ / ‘Tribute To Johnson,’ and ‘Where There’s A Will, There’s A Way.’… Unfortunately, the rest of the tour did not go as smoothly as our television show.
“We got booed off the stage in Germany,” Bonnie recalls. “They thought it was Delaney & Bonnie & Friends and Eric Clapton. They didn’t know it was Delaney & Bonnie & Friends with Eric Clapton. So they felt like they were gettin’ ripped off, that they had been kinda, like, lied to or something. I wasn’t worried; I wasn’t business-minded. Maybe they were. But we had to regroup after Munich.”
The band also did the initial recording for Clapton’s solo project at London’s Olympic Studios — which Bonnie describes as being “very little and ugly, like a doctor’s office — with Delaney producing and Andy Johns engineering. “I recorded ‘Only You Know And I Know’ and another song I can’t remember the first night,” Johns remembers. “Delaney saw himself as the leader; he said, ‘I’m the king and Eric’s the prince,’ which I thought was a bit odd, Delaney being a semi-nobody and Eric having already established himself. But it worked.
“It was the first time I’d ever met Bob Keys. I did a little rough mix on something, and he said, ‘God-DAMN, that’s the best we’ve ever sounded.’ So I was quite impressed. They had the whole band there — you’ve got probably the two best horn players of all time in Jim Price and Bob Keys; you’ve got Rita Coolidge, the Cherokee lady, who was with Jim Gordon at the time; Carl Radle, who was an absolute rail — whatever drummer you were working with, even if his time was moving around, Carl would hold it down. Delaney was a hell of a rhythm guitarist, and he wrote very well; and then, Bonnie, of course.
“It’s a long time ago,” Johns continues, “but I remember because the band was so incredible. In those days, I was working with people like Traffic and Free, and people would roll joints and get into the groove. ‘Well, man, let’s get a vibe going.’ But when those cats walked in the room to work on Eric’s solo album, they were instantly in the groove — I’d never heard anything like it. It’s one of the reasons that I moved to America, because these fuckers were professional.
“After the first day, Bonnie came in wearing these big chains, and I asked Denny Cordell \[Joe Cocker’s producer and Russell’s soon-to-be partner in Shelter Records\], ‘What’s up with her wearing those chains?' He said, ‘don’t you know?’ I said, ‘I haven’t got a clue.’ ‘Well, she was lookin’ at your ass too much last night, so Delaney took her back to the hotel and nearly fuckin’ killed her.’ And I wasn’t thinking this way at all, but apparently she had her eye on me. So I ran off with one of the others,” retells Johns.
Bonnie confirms the basis for the incident, but remembers it more innocently: “I thought Andy Johns was so handsome. Delaney probably told him I had a crush on him. He told George Harrison I had a crush on him when I was a teenager — he said George was my favorite Beatle — and embarrassed me so bad. I wanted to kill him.”
The U.K. tour opened at London’s Royal Albert Hall, whose posh and proper interior hadn’t previously been exposed to the sort of tribal abandon Delaney & Bonnie & Friends worked up and pumped out that night.
“We used the Pye \[Records\] truck,” Andy Johns recalls of the recording setup for the Albert Hall performance. “It was actually a van which would show up, and they’d pull out this gear and set it up in the dressing room. There was a four-track mixer and a four-track mono mixer, so you’ve got eight tracks, held together with string and Scotch tape — it was primitive. So we used that at the Albert Hall, and, of course, I showed up jolly early, petrified. I’d been to the Albert Hall once or twice for Chupalis gigs when I was doing Ten Years After and Jethro Tull, but I’d not recorded there. But the room turned out to be spectacular, and I really enjoyed it.”
Whitlock describes the band’s setup for live performance: “When we were on the stage with Delaney & Bonnie & Friends, the horns were always to my left and next to Bonnie, who was next to Delaney. He was always center stage. Jim and his drums were in the middle in the very back behind him and Carl was to his left. George and Eric were standing to Delaney’s left. What a band! I can hardly believe that it was me who was in it playing organ and singing.
“Eric, myself, Carl, and Jim came out to play a couple of numbers to warm up the audience,” Whitlock remembers. “Looking back, that was the first appearance of Derek & The Dominos, only we did not know it. We did a great version of ‘Gimme Some Lovin’,’ which was a huge hit worldwide for The Spencer Davis Group. When I was singing ‘Gimme Some Lovin’’ I just happened to look up when I started the third verse and there stood Steve Winwood.”
What Bonnie remembers most vividly about the show was her outfit. “I was goin’ down Kings Road, my first time having anything, and I saw those snake boots. They were in the window, and they had been made for somebody who didn’t pick them up. They were size 10, and nobody wears size 10 in England. I tried those boots on and they fit me perfect. Oh, my God, I’m tellin’ you, I said to myself, ‘I’m gonna wear these boots to the Royal Albert Hall, and I’m gonna be so hot at the Royal Albert Hall in my snake boots.’ So I get back from shopping at Eric’s house, and in walks Eric with this great big box, and he’s grinnin’ from ear to ear. He is so proud of himself, he’s glowin’ in the freakin’ dark. And he goes, ‘Look what I got for you, Bonnie.’ I love red dresses, and he’d heard me talking about them. But he bought the most beautiful red cut-velvet dress; it was so soft and beautiful. But it was full-length to the ground, and it was gonna cover my snake boots. I wore those snake boots to the Albert Hall underneath the dress, and after about the third song, I jerked that red dress up, all the way to my hips, and was dancin’ with my snake boots.”
“Bonnie just tore it up in her red velvet dress and over-the-knee snakeskin boots,” Coolidge confirms. “There was some rivalry between Delaney and Bonnie, of course. Who will wear the crown? They would just rip on forever, ‘I’m gonna wear the crown.’ But in reality, they both wore the crown. But the next morning the headlines in the newspaper were ‘Mae West hits the Albert Hall,’ and Bonnie’s picture was on the front page of the paper. So she clearly wore the crown that day.”
Harrison was at the Royal Albert Hall show, of course, as was John Lennon. “George I was going through a hard time with The Beatles and needed some R&R — rock n' roll, that is — and we were just the ticket,” Whitlock offers. “Eric asked him if he wanted to join us for the rest of the tour, and he jumped at the chance. George didn’t come and rehearse; we just picked him up at his house in Esher in the tour bus.”
“We asked George if he wanted to go, and he said, ‘Yes, I want to go,’” says Bonnie, relishing the memory. “‘But I can’t — Pattie won’t let me go. But if you come to the door in the morning and say, “George, come with us,” she never would say no right in front of you, 'cause she’s too proper.' So we drove right up to his front door.” Whitlock continues the story: “When we pulled up he came walking out with the guitar that he had played on the roof at Savile Row with The Beatles for their Let It Be album and film. And when he got on the bus, the first thing that he did before even saying hello was give that guitar to Delaney straight away. George was all class. It was a brown, rosewood Fender Telecaster, a very beautiful guitar that was made especially for George. That’s what he gave to Delaney.
“When George got on the bus, it was the best thing to have happened to us. He had a leveling influence on the whole scene, and he always carried a sense of well-being and serenity with him everywhere that he went. He was very quiet and was always smiling and laughing while being very serious about what he was doing at the same time.”
Similarly, Coolidge’s fondest memory “was when George rode on the bus with us. We would drive from city to city in the daytime, and nobody ever worried about their voices. We would sing all day long on the bus, then we would get to where we were going and do a sound check, do the show, then go back to the hotel and go to somebody’s room and sing until the wee hours of the morning. We sang all the time. It was like, ‘Hey, you remember this one?’ ‘Remember that one?’ It was constant music, and it was just incredible. As I would get on the bus when George was with us he would start singin’, ‘Lovely Rita, mee-tah maid.’ Oh, my God, I just wanted to kiss his feet. He was the sweetest man.”
Andy Johns, too, felt lucky to be along for the ride. “I was sitting on the bus one day talking to Carl Radle, who got me stoned, so I was a little paranoid,” he recalls. “But all these wonderful females were sitting in the back of the bus, singing gospel songs, and I’d never heard anything like that in my life. It was one of those experiences you never get to have again.”
Glyn Johns, who recorded the following night’s gig at Bristol’s Colston Hall, says of his experience, “It was a breeze. With a band that аrе that together and create such an amazing sound onstage, it is an engineer’s dream. Stick up a few mics and just sit back and enjoy yourself.”
To be accurate, it took more than a few mics. “Why, I’ll bet one night we must’ve had 20 people on the stage,” Bonnie enthused when she got back to the States. “We had four guitarists, lots of keyboards, all sorts of singers and road managers… everybody was up there.”
Philip Norman followed the band on the U.K. tour, focusing on Clapton’s transformation from “God,” as his fans referred to him, to sideman. “He really likes going on tour — even the ulcer-making things: service areas instead of proper bathrooms; the musicians' changing-rooms filled with orange peel, beer bottles, and choc-ice wrappers; the Northern hotels that smell of old cinema carpets,” Norman said of his subject. “He is so self-effacing as to appear to disguise himself in the company of the moment. On this tour he was plainly influenced by the unquiet manners of Delaney, who embraces or clouts his wife and roisters generally like Attila The Hun dressed for motorbicycling.”
“He becomes different people,” Clapton’s publicist Robin Turner told Norman. “When he was with George Harrison a lot, he bought a big house like George’s and a big Mercedes — George gave him his Indian-painted Mini. When he was with Stevie Winwood and Blind Faith, he went back to jeans and wanting to live in the country. When he met Delaney and Bonnie, he gave up traveling first-class and just climbed into their bus.”
By the final night, at Fairfield Halls in Croydon, Clapton had fully absorbed himself into the band and locked into the smokin’ grooves the players so naturally pumped out, and on the last two discs of this set you can hear him formulating those bird-in-flight guitar moves and tones he would refine during the subsequent sessions for his solo album before taking them to staggering musical and emotional extremes with Derek & The Dominos and Duane Allman. Meanwhile, hanging back in the shadows, Harrison was playing slide (which, legend has it, Delaney taught him how to do) and having the time of his life – going largely unnoticed until the announcer outed him between the closing tandem of “Coming Home” and the Little Richard medley.
After 13 shows in seven nights, the tour was done, and Andy Johns began going through the tapes in search of the strongest versions of each song. “Pagey showed up at the studio one night,” he says of a visit to the studio by the Led Zeppelin guitarist, laughing heartily at the memory. “‘What have you been doing?’ he asked. I said, ‘Listen to this,’ and played him ‘That’s What My Man Is For,’ which Bonnie sang the hell out of; the vibe and the groove on it were just lovely. He says, ‘Eric’s not playing very well, is he?’ That jealousy – the direct, absolute competition. I said, ‘Well, yeah, but he’s just the prince in this thing.’”
“The U.K. shows were generally well received,” Whitlock writes, “but by the end of the tour we were all pretty tired. I know I was. We had been playing two shows every night, and it had started to take its toll… We were all so messed on coke and booze. It was unbelievable!”
Nonetheless, by the time all was said and done, Delaney & Bonnie & Friends had spent an extremely productive couple of months on the other side of the pond. “It made us see that we were worthy,” Delaney explained to Rolling Stone’s Lenny Kaye about the group’s adventures in the U.K. just days after they’d returned to the States. “It was like the final test. We had always heard that English audiences were very cold and reserved, but when we got there, we found they were just the opposite. They’ll never jump to any conclusions; they're after the overall sound, not looking at what happens to any little piece of it.”
Bonnie seemed even more pleased than her husband. “I’ve been working for this for ten years,” she told Kaye, “and I’m lovin’ it.”
But hiding beneath her exuberance was a growing anxiety, as Bonnie readily acknowledges now. “It just went to hell in a handbag,” she says with an ache in her voice. “I didn’t know the first thing about drugs, and neither did Delaney. We really got caught up in that shit. It was the record company hip people – the suits — who brought us the dope. It turned into a nightmare for me. I can’t tell you how anybody else felt, but I just felt my life falling out from underneath me. Our lives were falling apart right in front of our very eyes, and there wasn’t anything either one of us could do to stop it — we didn’t know how. We had been carried away by a riptide, and both of us drowned. It was the beginning of the end. We didn’t make it. Musically, they made it, but me and Delaney died. That’s the truth. I shouldn’t say that’s the truth; it’s my truth. I’m not trying to be negative. It’s sad, though, isn’t it?”
It’s sad as well that this incredible band failed to make a more indelible mark before its members scattered, bringing the music forged by Delaney & Bonnie & Friends into prominence in other bands, while the origins of these trailblazing sounds have remained largely unrecognized by the public — and even by institutions like the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame.
“I would do anything for Bonnie, and I miss Delaney so much,” says Coolidge. “He was crazy, but it’s OK. What he contributed is massive, and there’s an effort under way to get them inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. He certainly was a force, and he deserves it.”
“I hope I’m never called a superstar,” Delaney said prophetically in early 1970. “I don’t want to get tagged with that. I think it’s a terrible label for anyone to have to live up to, and I think it’s one of the things that kill off a lot of groups and musicians. When you're a superstar, you're trying to do things out of your limit, and after a while it begins to hurt you and your music.”
Following Delaney & Bonnie & Friends’ triumphant return to the States in January for a headlining weekend at the Fillmore East in front of adoring crowds, the band returned to the West Coast, where they did the bulk of Eric Clapton at The Village Recorder in West L.A. Not only did Bonnie sing on the record, but she also had a hand in its two central songs, not only helping Clapton start “Let It Rain” but also turning him on to Oklahoman J.J. Cale’s “After Midnight.” Crickets drummer Jerry Allison (who would later sing backing vocals on the Clapton LP) introduced Bonnie to Cale’s original version, which was the B-side of his “Slow Motion” single, whereupon she promptly hand-delivered the seven-inch to Clapton, thinking it could be a hit for him. How right she was.
As soon as the Clapton record was finished, Russell conscripted Radle, Gordon, Price, Keys, and Coolidge for Joe Cocker’s sprawling Mad Dogs & Englishmen tour, but by then a sort of collective insanity had taken hold, according to Coolidge (as a cub reporter covering the tour, I’d witnessed some of the craziness as well). “There was way too much rivalry going on in Mad Dogs, and just way too many drugs, just too many combative factions,” she recalls. “It was too many people — some that weren’t really there for the music. It was just thrown together; it was not people that chose each other like Delaney and Bonnie. The Cocker tour was just much more chaotic, and I think that, instead of lifting Joe up it almost killed him. I didn’t think that I would make it home alive. I never felt that way with Delaney and Bonnie.”
With their in-demand Friends having run off to become Mad Dogs and Dominos, the Bramletts cut To Bonnie From Delaney with a replacement crew that included Duane Allman, with cameos from Little Richard, King Curtis, and Burritos pedal steel player Sneaky Pete Kleinow. While this new set of Friends failed to match the firepower of their predecessors, Bonnie was in peak form on the gospel song “Lay Down My Burden,” Richard’s “Miss Ann,” and the originals “Hard Luck And Troubles,” “They Call It Rock & Roll Music,” and “Living On The Open Road.”
They followed it a year later with the underrated Motel Shot, a down-to-the-bone, largely acoustic set featuring Allman and Gram Parsons, along with their old mates Radle, Whitlock, Russell, and Dave Mason. Their swan song was 1972’s D&B Together, whose title is grimly ironic in retrospect, because the couple would divorce before the year’s end. The studio version of “Only You Know And I Know” is here, as is “Groupie (Superstar),” which was subsequently covered by Coolidge and The Carpenters under the more PC title “Superstar.”
“There is no question that they had an immense effect on popular music, mostly by influencing some of the most successful musicians of the day,” Glyn Johns marvels. “The outstanding memory for me is the sound they created. Being an engineer, it had a huge influence on me — this, coupled with the complexity of the rhythm section and the ease with which they performed. Us Brits had never heard anything so fluid.”
“Delaney and Bonnie were young and so creative,” says Coolidge of those years. “They had taken what we had grown up with to the next level, and I think everybody recognized it as just playing music, which we did all the time. It was sublime, and it was so exciting to be a part of the California music scene then, anyway — you know, the golden age of rock ‘n’ roll. But finding out later on what impact it had on people. I was dancing with Elton John at a party one night, and he said, ‘I wouldn’t be here if it weren’t for you.’ I said, ‘Not me.’ And he said, ‘No, but the people you were playing music with. It’s the reason that I’m here today.’”
And while Bonnie makes no attempt to hide the sadness she feels about what could’ve been, she also feels a sense of pride in what she and her companions accomplished. “I get a kick out of it now,” she says, “because we were all struggling and makin’ bologna sandwiches, and now everybody’s all legends. It’s wonderful; it’s just such a treat.”

D. Michael Van Konynenburg, the newly appointed CEO of Eastdil Secured, has contributed $50,000 to support Matt Mahan's campaign for governor of California. Mahan is currently serving as the mayor of San Jose. This information comes from campaign finance data that highlights the growing involvement of real estate executives in state politics. Van Konynenburg previously held the position of president at Eastdil until a March announcement regarding the company's sale to Savills for over $1 billion. Following this transition, Roy March has taken on the role of executive chairman.
Although Eastdil is headquartered in New York City, it maintains an office in Santa Monica, where Van Konynenburg is based. The company is known for its involvement in commercial real estate and investment, which could have implications for the housing market in the Bay Area, particularly with the influence of its leadership on political decisions that may impact real estate development and investment in the region.
The support from prominent real estate figures like Van Konynenburg may suggest a strategic alignment between the real estate sector and local political leadership, potentially influencing housing policies and development initiatives in California. However, the article does not provide further details on specific initiatives or policies that may arise from this political backing.
For readers interested in the intersection of real estate and politics in the Bay Area, this development highlights the ongoing engagement of real estate executives in local governance and its potential ramifications for housing and property markets in the region.

I passed AZ-900 today and wanted to share my experience.
I studied for about one week only. My first priority was Microsoft Learn, but honestly, it felt a bit incomplete to me. In the last two days, I watched John Savill’s AZ-900 videos on YouTube, along with a few exam cram videos from other creators.
One thing I would say: don’t rely too much on Microsoft’s practice assessment. In my experience, the real exam was quite different from the practice test.
Good luck to everyone planning to take the certification exam!

# Reviews of Calam Lynch’s performance in Please Please Me are pouring in from press night and preview week.
And more and more like these keep coming in.
\- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -
“Calam Lynch wisely steers clear of an outright impersonation in his portrayal. The real man clearly had far greater depth than the carefully crafted public image and it is these depths Lynch explores. Though at times the script flirts with cliché in its rise and fall structure, Lynch does a great deal to keep the character interesting. As Epstein slips into the hedonism of drugs, alcohol and rent boys, he is overtaken by a sweaty, animalistic wildness that is quite enthralling to witness from mere metres away. The pure physical energy Lynch brings to the role buttresses the show’s message of what a force of nature this man was. Were it not for this man’s fierce spirit, he may never have achieved so much in his short life, and the world sure is grateful he achieved what he did.”

**“Strong Lead Performance**
Calam Lynch gives a powerful performance as Brian Epstein. He captures both the manager’s charm and his increasing fragility.
As the play progresses, his performance becomes more physical, showing Epstein’s emotional collapse with growing intensity. It is a central performance that gives the production much of its emotional weight.”

“It’s a fascinating character study – “Eppy” is portrayed by **Calam Lynch** with an astonishing level of confidence and tenderness. He carries the piece through every scene brilliantly, never losing his grasp on this complex, deeply withheld man for even a moment, even when the audience laughs at his beautiful recovery of a dropped prop phone…”

“Calam Lynch… does a fine job as Epstein, a portrayal that gradually evolves into a portrait of a dissolute, wealthy, doomed pioneer.”

“Lynch delivers a tricky brief. He conjures a man both of his time and of the future - his vision of the business side was as innovative as Martin’s was on the creative side - but he’s also vulnerable and weak in the face of bullies. So many times you find yourself wanting to shout from the stalls, “Don’t do that mate!” to a man with deep intelligence, real charm and a keen sense of judgement in everything except his private life, until you remember that he barely lived long enough to see the partial decriminalisation of homosexual acts in 1967. He never had the chance to be the man he was.”

“The cast shines with exceptional performances across the board. **Calam Lynch**’s portrayal of Brian is layered, fully embodying Brian’s commitment to his work and to the band, as well as the vulnerability and yearning behind it.”

“Calam Lynch is outstanding as Brian. He blends upright Englishness with self-conscious patter, entrepreneurial spark with chronic uncertainty. Lynch electrifies the relation between Epstein and Lennon. In every scene, he inhabits a man ruptured by adoration and self-restraint. As Epstein spirals into destructive drug use, Lynch flips from weeping uncontrollably to make-believe serenity. He paints a colourful portrait of a man unable to root himself in a frantic world.”

Calam Lynch acts for his life as Epstein, moving from a stiff shouldered record shop owner, to an LSD-loving, word-slurring drunk. From their first meeting, he is entranced by Noah Ricketts’ Lennon, who settles into his soft Scouse tones as the evening unfolds, and together their scenes pulse with will-they-won’t-they, what the hell is this, chemistry

“In a cast of just five actors, Calam Lynch lends great humanity to Brian as he transforms through various physical and psychological changes. Lynch begins tightly wound, as stiff as his Savile Row suits, going on to embrace the supposed freedoms of the 1960s in unbuttoned linen shirts, then portraying the decline of the man as his addictions and mental turmoil take hold.”

But the best reason to see *Please Please Me* is Lynch’s performance as Epstein, full of charm and agony, gradually disintegrating as the shame and stress of his life destroys him, but always capable of prompting affection in those around him. It’s a performance that suggests more than the script gives him to say – and honours a visionary and unhappy man.

Via their twitter,
“Now playing at the Kiln Theatre: ‘Please Please Me’ 🎸 Calam Lynch shines as the legendary Brian Epstein in this moving look at the man behind The Beatles’ meteoric rise. A vital story of legacy and identity. 🎭✨”
“In the central role, *Calam Lynch* gives a performance of great dignity. He captures *Brian Epstein*’s reserved nature perfectly, portraying a man navigating his Jewish identity and his sexuality with a quiet, heart-breaking intensity. We see him battle with his internal demons, leading to a tragic downward spiral into booze and drugs. While the play does not shy away from his ultimate death, it treats his struggle with a fairness that reminds us he was a real human individual, not just a tragic figure of history.”

“The biggest strength in Please Please Me is its talented cast. Calam Lynch did the best he could with the material he was given in a solid turn as Brian, demonstrating **star power** and attempting to find some natural order in the extremities his character was given. Lynch embodied the role to the best anyone could in these circumstances, with a great use of movement that revealed the wild and unpredictable nature of the character. It is a testament to Lynch that an unplanned moment where he dropped the phone, resulting in an ad-lib, was the funniest moment of the play, though there is also a concern that an off-the-cuff remark like that can prove better than the actual material.”

…Calam Lynch is a magnificent lonely tortured trapped self-hating drugged up Rattigan protagonist, simultaneously embodying the loneliness and physicality of Samuel Barnett's similarly gay and Jewish Posner in "The History Boys," crossed with the refined, aristocratic, detached, educated, repressed masculinity of a Lloyd-Hughes brother.”

Especially after the Jimmy Savile eps but for a while now I have felt deeply skeptical about most kinds of charity. Hear me out though because I'm not a total twat I don't think. I'm sure people will inform me if I am.
Charity is mainly for rich people to piss about with money that they should just be paying into taxes so that it can at least have the pretence of democratically being allocated where the community sees fit. "But I care so \*deeply\* about the \*children\*, I simply \*must\* create the Lady Blabberley Tittingsbonk Foundation for Defective and/or Impertinent Chimneysweeps. Taxes? Hwhat? Well my dear, I'm afraid my generous philanthropic "work" is all tax deductible. If you want my Pounds Sterling you'll need to fall off a fireplace and break all of your arms and legs. Ta ta, peasants"
This serves a few different purposes;
\- allowing rch people to hide wealth and stash money away that they can still basically control
\- rich people get to pretend they have jobs when they're just doing what they'd be doing anyway like going to parties and talking to other rich people about bullshit. Except when you are a Philanthropist you get to call it fundraising/networking/lobbying instead of avoiding taxation/doing cocaine/paying bribes.
\- obviously, if your charity is kids, well we just listened to four fucking episodes about what the fuck that's really about
\- don't like your government's new budget? Not to worry, you and your country club friends can make sure you contribute the least amount possible, build a museum, and still get credit for being a "Patron of The Arts" or some bullshit
\- but most importantly it fosters the idea that there is no such thing as collectively making eachother's lives better by pooling our resources and getting together to decide how to use them. Fuck that, I, the Monocled Monopoly Man will tell you what I'm willing to pay for and that's all you'll fucking get. So if you care about trains and schools and health care, and I care about digging up the moon, fuck you, plebs, we're digging up the fucking moon.
Charitable contributions beyond a certain amount should absolutely not be tax deductible and in fact, I think there's a good argument they should increase one's tax liability. Oh you've got money to dick around holding the Inaugural Gala for the Society for Young Ladies in Business And Entrepreneurial Ventures? Cool, please ensure you have double that left over for shit that everyone else needs, and yes we are investigating how young the ladies are, you ghoul. You're not helping, just shut up about unions and the minimum wage and pay your fucking taxes

Sharing because I think the podcast might have *slightly* misrepresented what Theroux had heard, what Theroux thought he knew, and when
Theroux wrote this piece to promote his 2016 doc examining why he (and the UK) failed to expose Savile during his lifetime:
[https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/magazine-37517619](https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/magazine-37517619)
'I was at my wedding in July 2012 when I learned that the DJ and TV presenter Jimmy Savile was to be unmasked as a sexual predator in an upcoming ITV documentary.
At that time, I imagined I knew Savile reasonably well. I'd made my own documentary about him in 2000, filming with him for about two weeks at his various homes around Britain.
I'd stayed in contact for several years after the film went out, making occasional trips up to Leeds. There was always a professional pretext - a DVD commentary to record, a new series to promote - but the visits also had a social dimension.
They usually involved a meal at a local restaurant and sometimes an overnight stay at his penthouse overlooking Roundhay Park. We had a friendly relationship.
The Jimmy Savile I knew then was a contradictory figure. In some respects, he was enigmatic and slightly remote, hiding behind his show-business patter and anecdotes.
There was scant sign of any sort of love life. He was insular. Social events were on his terms - he had to be the centre of attention. He was also prone to dropping the occasional dark hint of unconventional interests - he'd make tantalising references to his connection with Myra Hindley, or joke about his visits to Broadmoor and his conversations with Peter Sutcliffe.
But Savile could also come across - and it's not easy to write this now - as a rather likeable person, good-humoured, knowledgeable, "un-starry" in his manner of life and in his friendships with local Leeds characters. His self-centredness had the effect of making him undemanding company - he was relaxing to be around.
One of my reasons for keeping in touch was that I was aware I hadn't quite figured him out. For a while I kept notes for a book I thought I might write one day that would try to unravel who he was.
Sometimes he mentioned girlfriends coming to visit, but I was never quite sure how much of that to believe. In 2001, a year after my documentary went out, I met two women, then in their forties, who told me they'd been girlfriends of his decades earlier.
One of them had been 15 at the beginning of the relationship. I mentioned it to colleagues at work - but to be honest, I didn't think a great deal of it, seeing it as symptomatic of a different time.
I'd last seen him in 2006. When he died, five years later, I wrote a blog post, expressing a sense of guilt about not having visited him towards the end. "He was a complete one-off," I wrote. "Wrestler, charity fundraiser, deejay, fixer, prankster, and professional enigma."
At the time, I'd done my best to be tough with him. I knew he was weird and, with all his mannerisms, rather irritating - I had no interest in making a soft piece about Jimmy the Charity Fundraiser.
The dark rumours - of sexual deviance, of being unemotional, of having a morbid interest in corpses - were one of the reasons I'd taken him on as a subject.
I wanted to get the goods on Savile. The trouble was, I had no clear sense of what those goods were.
As I leafed through a collection of old photographs, some showing him with his arms around various girls, I attempted to nail him down on the subject of his sexual interests.
Why, in the whole time he'd been in the public eye, had he never been linked with anyone in the papers? I asked.
He seemed to be presenting a rather improbable scenario of himself as an itinerant Don Juan with paramours all over Britain, all of them somehow flattered by the attention of an aged DJ in a tracksuit. It didn't add up.
He said he didn't have a cooker in his Leeds penthouse because cookers attract women and women "equal brain damage"
It was passed off as a bit of banter but there was also an underlying truth.
In Savile's view, women were overly emotional and illogical. He wasn't interested in the give-and-take that relationships entail. What he left out was his solution - to take what he wanted, without consent and with impunity.
Savile's relationships, with men and women, were conducted on his terms. He expected loyalty, but did not like being at the beck and call of others.
Travelling between his houses, living in his caravan, going on his cruises, he led a vagabond existence, a little like the wild animals he sometimes compared himself to.
Savile's personal assistant once said that he didn't have many close friends. "He found friends an encumbrance."
Nor of course did he have a family of his own.
Among those I reached out to were the two girlfriends I'd met in 2001.
At the time of the revelations, they'd come forward to say that they too had been abused by Savile. It was troubling to realise that I'd spoken to two victims while he was still alive. I wondered whether, if I'd handled the encounter differently, they might have been able to say more.
Those two women still didn't wish to talk publicly about what they had been through but they agreed to have a private meeting with me.
They spoke about the rumours of his connections to the underworld. They said that, as much as they wished he could have faced justice, they would have been too afraid to go to the police while he was alive.
For many, the easiest shorthand explanation of Jimmy Savile has been that "he hid in plain sight".
This was true in one sense. Savile had played up to an image as a white-haired playboy bachelor. "Feared in every girl's school in the country," he used to joke.
His sartorial style - tracksuits, jewellery, weird hair - was a statement of a kind of perpetual agelessness. He looked a little creepy. He wrote about borderline criminal sexual shenanigans in his autobiography, As It Happens, including a night he spent with a girl who was a runaway from a remand centre.
But a big part of his life was a kind of double bluff. Referring to himself as a "pirate" or a "con man", as he often did, served to reassure those around him that he couldn't really be those things - or at least, not in a way that we should worry about.
His need to be seen to have secrets suggested perhaps his secrets weren't worth knowing - that it was simply another bid for attention.
"His big secret was that he had no secret," was one of the comments in the days after he died.
If only.
In fact, Jimmy Savile's offending took place both in plain view and also out of sight - and it was his blurring the lines that was part of the MO.
Victims who'd been groped and complained were told, that's just Jimmy. Some who were groped with other people near at hand felt unable to protest. They wondered if this was, somehow, permitted.
Reading the reports of the assaults, it was clear Savile had an ability to work a room, almost like a stage hypnotist working an audience.
Many of his assaults involved him testing the limits of what he could get away with. He would push the boundaries, starting off in a grey area so that sexual assaults weren't immediately recognised as such.
Still others were assaulted away from prying eyes - at his flat, in his caravan. Some took the understandable decision that to report the assault would lead to a process that would in its own way be traumatic.
Others tried to raise the alarm but weren't listened to - by colleagues, friends, parents or those in charge.
In hindsight, it's tempting to see clues everywhere.
In a random comment on a recce tape - when our production first sent an assistant producer to interview him he referred to his bed as an altar, because that's where the "sacrifices" happen, he said.
Or in the overly physical way he embraced two women at Leeds's Flying Pizza restaurant one evening, which I only noticed looking back at the rushes.
Or in his comment to me on one occasion that "a psychologist will tell you" that there was something in all women "that wants to be a prostitute".
But given what we've lived though, what is most difficult to explain is that most of the time Jimmy Savile behaved something like a plausible, albeit odd, person.
This may seem a rather banal point to make but it is also arguably the most frightening one. By making Savile a figure of almost supernatural evil - someone who was self-evidently repulsive and dangerous - we risk failing to see him clearly as a human being.
One day another Jimmy Savile may come along and he too may appear plausible - right up until the moment he is unmasked.
A human being did Savile's crimes - one who charmed princes, prime ministers, leading religious figures and celebrities, not to mention the millions of people who listened to him on the radio and watched him on television.
A human being who was intelligent, sometimes amusing, and likeable, and who, by being those things, was able to fool a nation'

Many years ago i applied for a job and had an interview/tour of a business. They bought a bunch of his bikes and tv outfits prior to the scandal leaking. They were proud of this hoard (again pre scandal) and it was novel to see (at the time). I was born 1990 so i didn't really know who or what he was. But i wore one of his shellsuit jackets and posed with a prop cigar. They were a sports company and his bicycles were a token of who he was.
I've followed bhtb for years and fell off listening to it religiously recently. I think the worst thing besides the pedophilia that savile did is make popular is 'do athletics' to lever you to donate or sponsor towards charity. I don't think Robert touches on this, and he just focuses on the pedophilia, which is the bigger issue.
But saville created/started the sponsor my athletic endeavor to support 'charity X' which is arguably a good thing, but you shouldn't be obligated to support X/Y/Z in order to address that issue. You're obviously welcome to put your resources into whatever values you believe in, i support a few organizations consistently. Ive also done athletics to push sponsorship and been a nuisance pushing charity sponsorship.
I feel like such a grinch exploring this; its great if you wanna run a 5k supporting a peer or relative. I cycled 200 miles in a day for cancer research because it took alot of my childhood friends parents before their time.
But i believe theres a bully/pressure culture that can be cultivated by people in a work environment to push donations/sponsorship which sours the whole affair. And beyond that resources to resolve or fix the problem should be paid by taxes or resourced socially and not by individual efforts.
I mean this post well, and not curmudgeonly regarding charity and fundraising. Fuck saville, i am not happy or proud that hes part of uk culture.

\#27 In The Series
From the dusty battlefields of nineteenth-century wars to the manicured lawns of American campus, The chino pant has proven itself one of the most durable and adaptable pieces of clothing ever made. Its story is, in many ways, the story of the modern world itself: shaped by empire, warfare, cinema, and the desire to look effortlessly put-together.
[Brando Down Time](https://preview.redd.it/pyoqnma5lzwg1.png?width=720&format=png&auto=webp&s=64ad609dfc346726be3e3714302e4226b75f9fd1)
**It’s In The Name(s)**
To understand the chino, we must first understand the fabric. The word "chino" derives from the Spanish word for China, reflecting the garment's origins. The twill cotton fabric used was originally manufactured in China and exported across trade routes to European colonial powers throughout the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries. This tightly woven cotton cloth was an ideal candidate for military uniforms in tropical and subtropical climates, gaining significant military application, especially by the Spanish, during the Spanish-American War of 1898.
[Valencian Soldier 1898 ](https://preview.redd.it/7cp26z09lzwg1.png?width=377&format=png&auto=webp&s=4921045cac773cb92870791d3c31abd2932c9a3e)
American soldiers fighting in Cuba and the Philippines found their standard-issue woolen uniforms wholly unsuitable for the sweltering heat. As a practical solution, troops began adopting lightweight cotton twill trousers, often dyed in khaki or beige tones to blend with sandy, sun-bleached terrain. The garment quickly became associated with the American military presence in Asia and the Pacific.
**Khakis up the Kyhber**
But the American military was not the first to discover the virtues of cotton twill. British colonial forces had already arrived at similar conclusions decades earlier. Sir Harry Lumsden, a British officer stationed in India in the 1840s, is widely credited with introducing khaki-colored uniforms to military dress. Facing the blazing Punjab sun, Lumsden instructed his soldiers to dye their white cotton uniforms with a muddy, earth-toned color reportedly achieved using tea, curry powder, and mud to reduce visibility and improve comfort.

The result was a “khaki” colored practical, lightweight trouser. The name itself comes from the Persian word khāk meaning soil or dust and then adopted into Hindustani as khaki, meaning dust-colored. British forces would wear what were now known Khakis into conflicts across Africa, Asia, and beyond.
**World War I: Doughboys in Dust and Mud**
By the time the First World War erupted in 1914, khaki had become the defining color of British and American military dress. American doughboys shipping to the Western Front were issued trousers cut from a lightweight cotton twill. Meanwhile the British KD (Khaki Drill) Summer uniform included Indian cotton trousers, tucked into puttees or boots. These “breaches” were not yet chinos in the modern sense, but the silhouette and fabric were taking shape.
[Breaching with Breaches](https://preview.redd.it/nxqsl7a9mzwg1.png?width=444&format=png&auto=webp&s=c234dbf5a4caffc12908c9ae9c77a0c48d736e07)
**World War II: The Chino Goes Global**
As millions of men entered military service, the U.S. Army issued cotton twill trousers as standard utility wear. These were practical garments designed for work, training, and off-duty wear not strictly combat fatigues, but the everyday trousers of the American serviceman.
[Everyday Pants](https://preview.redd.it/kdwnxmz2nzwg1.png?width=957&format=png&auto=webp&s=d823ed63f9b71b6adbb165a1f0d7f55a145494c3)
Manufactured in enormous quantities by American mills, the US Army's wartime chino had a practical design. Featuring a high waist, generous cut, and a plain front, they were cut looser through the seat and thigh than their European counterparts. Designed for durability across the jungles of the Philippines, Guadalcanal, and New Guinea
[Nepalese Elite Forces](https://preview.redd.it/lhvtp5q7nzwg1.png?width=780&format=png&auto=webp&s=62efaf4f626216ca2b77e937f649ec4484eecd58)
The British had the "Gurkha" pants , light weight cotton with Khaki Drill (KD) and Jungle Green (JG) versions. Originally designed for elite Nepalese Gurkha units these soon became standard for British and Commonwealth forces in tropical theaters of North Africa, Burma, and the Mediterranean.
The trouser is characterized by a high, "cummerbund-style" waistband, fastened with two buckles. In addition two forward facing pleats and two patch pockets on the thighs complete the trouser.

**The Journey Home**
When the war ended and soldiers returned home, they brought their chinos with them. The garment made an easy transition to civilian life. Veterans were accustomed to the comfort and simplicity of the cut; they saw no reason to abandon it.
Surplus stores overflowed with the garments, and a cash-strapped postwar generation snapped them up eagerly. On college campuses from New Haven to Berkeley, the chino pant shed its military associations and became a symbol of relaxed, youthful ease.
[Hot Weather Hot Rodding](https://preview.redd.it/27i7mp09ozwg1.png?width=616&format=png&auto=webp&s=0b0caf4b90ccaee4d122c1d99420561d998f6bce)
What the quartermaster corps designed for jungle warfare, Madison Avenue would soon package as the uniform of the American preppy. Retailers, recognizing the demand, began producing civilian versions in the same lightweight cotton twill. Brands like Khaki-Kool and, later, L.L. Bean and Brooks Brothers began offering chinos as casual trousers for everyday American men.
The colors remained rooted in military tradition: khaki, beige, sand, olive, and stone. Even a crease if ironed down the front of the leg echoed the sharp, pressed standards of military dress codes.
**Silver Screen and Off**
Cinema did as much as any army to establish the chino as a cultural icon. As mid-century American cinema explored themes of youth, rebellion, and masculine identity, the chino became the preferred trouser of both the all-American clean cut hero and the smoldering rebellious antihero.
[Far East to East of Eden](https://preview.redd.it/yg4gna9mozwg1.png?width=659&format=png&auto=webp&s=4ef7c4049ad721646a75d93c82ebc76f984180f8)
While blue jeans were the symbol of rebellion on screen from The Wild One (1953) to Rebel Without a Cause (1955) both Brando and Dean often wore chinos off screen, sometimes crumpled and creased or worn as a reflection of Ivy League rebellious youth ..a look Dean continued in East of Eden (1955). And no deep dive into the chino can ignore Steve McQueen’s iconic look in The Great Escape (1963).
[Always Steve](https://preview.redd.it/hheh7u2tozwg1.jpg?width=370&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=e83c35dda32dc1acdca3ba48a9a5bad8ba69e477)
The chino's cinematic journey continued through subsequent decades. In *The Graduate* (1967), Dustin Hoffman's Benjamin Braddock drifts through suburban California wearing casual trousers that reflect his aimless comfort.
Tom Hanks wore chino-style trousers throughout much of period piece *Forrest Gump* (1994), a deliberate costuming choice to root the character in everyman American decency.
**The Preppy Revolution and Ivy League Style**
Through the 1960s and 1970s, chinos became firmly embedded in American collegiate culture. The Ivy League schools of the northeastern United States had long favored a restrained, unfussy style that prioritized quality fabric and classic cuts over fashion trends.
Chinos fit perfectly: they were casual enough for campus life but presentable enough for class. Paired with button-down Oxford shirts, loafers, and crewneck sweaters, they formed the core of what became known as "preppy" style.
[Across Campus ](https://preview.redd.it/fl59xl84pzwg1.png?width=403&format=png&auto=webp&s=dfeead7512805dbb14e5c5c03adbd11877f3020f)
Ralph Lauren's Polo line commercialized Ivy League style for mass consumption throughout the 1970s, with chinos, in classic khaki and a range of pastel tones (!), and were central to the brand's vision of aspirational American leisure. Specific 90s fits like the "Andrew" (known for its wide leg and double pleats) and the "Philip" (a fuller fit) became highly collectible vintage items.
[1991 PRL - Andrew Pants](https://preview.redd.it/rui62lzjyzwg1.png?width=349&format=png&auto=webp&s=ce5d6c2a40690f7df96d920e29cc947d9c53f2ec)
The Gap, founded in 1969 and expanding rapidly through the 1980s, made affordable chinos available to virtually every American consumer. By the mid-1980s, the chino had completed its journey from military surplus to suburban mall staple.

**The Chino as Office Drone Shorthand**
As television took over from cinema as carriers of culture, with ever more sophisticated filming techniques, high production values and even going to the extent of producing films exclusively for the online streaming platforms. The chino is worn in a less rebellious signal than that of its silver screen stars of the past.
[High School High](https://preview.redd.it/674b8dq9xzwg1.png?width=421&format=png&auto=webp&s=434b9c9ac476857e5506b173a8dfcf57180bac16)
In *Breaking Bad* (2008–2013), Walter White's early-season wardrobe of khaki chinos and green shirts was a deliberate costuming choice by the show's designers to convey his domesticity. As Walter transforms into Heisenberg, the chinos disappear, replaced by black pants.
[Angry Andy](https://preview.redd.it/ofy2use8pzwg1.png?width=286&format=png&auto=webp&s=2600357ef46719da6d55abb891d655a0f718f3c3)
More lightheartedly, chinos became a staple of the American sitcom office. In *The Office* (2005–2013), nearly every character in Dunder Mifflin's Scranton branch wore chinos at some point. Functioning as a study in desperate respectability; the show's costume designers understood that chinos communicate a particular American professional aspiration: not corporate power, but the longing for it.
*Mad Men* (2007–2015) also used chinos as a deliberate costuming signal. Characters outside the power center of Sterling Cooper frequently wore them. The chino marked a man as competent but not yet arrived, Pete Campbell's evolution from chino-clad junior account man to sharp-suited partner was tracked in part through his trousers.
**Contemporary Fashion**
While the American chino story dominates the garment's popular history, parallel traditions existed elsewhere. In Britain, the chino absorbed influences from both military khaki and the tailoring traditions of Savile Row, producing a slightly more formal silhouette that remains popular in contemporary British and Continetal menswear.
[Euro Style](https://preview.redd.it/wyp23guw00xg1.png?width=439&format=png&auto=webp&s=6010eb2831530bce4124ac737b9c7aea6ab5dbe1)
The 1990s and 2000s saw the chino democratized further, appearing in streetwear contexts alongside sneakers and hoodies. Brands like Supreme and A.P.C. incorporated chinos into their offerings, bridging the gap between prep heritage and contemporary urban style.
[How About NO? Just NO. ](https://preview.redd.it/3d4ytx5epzwg1.jpg?width=474&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=85e90f034443192cd1316c91783f6d5a6017e9eb)
The "slim chino" , a narrower, lower-rise interpretation of the classic cut, became the defining trouser of a generation of young men in the 2010s, popularized by fast-fashion retailers and worn with everything from Oxford shirts to graphic tees.
[Beams Japan - A return to 90s widths](https://preview.redd.it/6qpapzcozzwg1.png?width=379&format=png&auto=webp&s=f3a1f663250a3c15e9b85e92b069dc5a6b0690c7)
More recently, fashion has seen a renewed interest in workwear and military heritage aesthetics, bringing the chino's origins back into focus. Pants that consciously reference military utility wear, complete with cargo pockets, reinforced knees, and earth-toned palettes drawn directly from twentieth-century field uniforms as well as wider looser fits in a nod to 90s styling.
**Japan and the Art of Reproduction**
No country has studied, dissected, and reassembled American workwear and military clothing with greater reverence or technical precision than Japan with quality, construction fidelity, and obsessive historical accuracy.
**Buzz Rickson's** The brand's approach to chinos draws directly from U.S. military specifications: their reproductions of the M-1945 and M-1951 cotton field trousers.
**The Real McCoy's**, now one of the most influential names in Japanese Americana, the brand produces military chinos and field trousers that are virtually indistinguishable from originals on close inspection.
[Real McCoy ](https://preview.redd.it/yiyp7aiqqzwg1.png?width=552&format=png&auto=webp&s=fe26b0db0793d46ad492113a6fe2c56bc1af835e)
What the Japanese reproduction movement ultimately gave the chino was a new kind of cultural legitimacy. By treating the garment with the same attention that museum conservators give to fine art, these brands insisted that the humble cotton twill trouser had a history worth preserving.
**Why the Chino Endures**
The chino's extraordinary durability as a fashion item comes down to a set of qualities that are almost paradoxical. It is casual but not sloppy, structured but not formal, humble in origin but capable of conveying sophistication.
[Nigel Cabourn - Officer Pants](https://preview.redd.it/c7987pbfszwg1.png?width=417&format=png&auto=webp&s=2ca1ac559e0d5e4998eb7df94d5458db2fcaeb70)
It occupies a precise middle ground in the spectrum of dress that is extraordinarily useful in modern life appropriate for the office, the restaurant, the weekend errand, the school gate, and the summer barbecue, all without alteration. The circle, in a sense, has closed: the chino has traveled from battlefield to college to boardroom and back again, each journey adding new layers of meaning to a fundamentally simple garment.

[Todd Snyder](https://go.shopmy.us/p-54324253) is one of the few menswear brands I'll go out of my way to buy. I've paid full retail on a few pieces, the linen button-ups, a Miansai bracelet, a pair of linen shorts, because I wanted those specific items and I wasn't willing to wait. But what made me actually fall in love with the brand was the end-of-year sale. That's when I stocked up for the first time and built out a real Todd Snyder wardrobe instead of owning one or two scattered pieces.
If you buy everything at retail, you're paying a premium for the name. If you wait for the sale and stack it strategically, you're paying J.Crew prices for something meaningfully better than J.Crew. The honest answer to "is Todd Snyder worth it?" depends on which version of that math you're doing and for me, the answer is *both*, for different pieces.
# A Quick Word on Who Todd Snyder Is
Todd Snyder grew up in Iowa, studied engineering, dropped out to work at a men's haberdashery, then spent years at Ralph Lauren and J.Crew. At J.Crew, he created the Ludlow suit, the slim modern silhouette that became their best-selling suiting line and anchored their first standalone men's store in TriBeCa.
He launched his own label in 2011. The pitch: Savile Row tailoring meets American workwear and vintage military influences, priced below luxury houses but above mall brands. GQ called him "the most influential menswear designer of his generation." That's the marketing. What you're actually buying is a specific aesthetic, a slightly dressier, slightly more European version of American classic menswear, executed in Italian and Portuguese factories with better fabric than the mass market.
# How I Actually Shop Todd Snyder
Here's the breakdown of my closet. Some pieces I bought full price because I wanted them right now. Most of the rest came from the end-of-year sale, which runs from roughly Black Friday through mid-January. During that window, items that started at $179 drop to $107. Items that started at $194 drop to $116. I actually was able to snag a $1,000 cashmere sweater for $185 as an example.
Before the sale, I'd bought maybe two or three Todd Snyder pieces total over the previous year. The sale is what turned a curiosity into a wardrobe.
**Paid full retail** (the pieces I wanted now, not later):
* **Slim Soft Irish Linen Point Collar Shirt in White** — $158
* Additional linen button-up shirts
* **Miansai Avi Bracelet in Navy** (sold by Todd Snyder, made by Miansai)
* **5" Linen Beachcomber Short in Sand Dollar**
**End-of-year sale haul** (the stockup that built out the wardrobe):
* **Classic Sea Island Cotton Tee**
* **Linen Sweater Polo in Dry Sage**
* **Relaxed Boucle Montauk Polo in Navy**
* **Linen Sweater Vest in Bisque**
* **Lightweight Linen-Cotton Crewneck Sweater in Sand**
* **Boiled Cashmere Zip Polo in Bisque**
* **Silk Cashmere Crewneck in Bisque**
* **Silk Cashmere LS Polo in Bisque**
* **Cropped Seersucker Camp Collar Shirt in Fog**
* **And a few other items**
The sale haul alone had a total retail value north of $4,500. I paid somewhere around $1,000 for it. That's the math that let me go deep on pieces I wouldn't have otherwise taken a chance on boiled cashmere in bisque, a linen sweater vest, a boucle knit polo. Stuff that's slightly outside my comfort zone but I now love and get compliments basically every time I put them on, that's partly because I have never really been "fashion forward" in how I dress.
# What I Actually Wear the Most
I live in South Florida. That context matters for almost every piece on this list. The knit and mesh items, the Relaxed Boucle Montauk Polo, the Linen Sweater Polo, the Linen Sweater Vest, have open-weave textures that let air move through the fabric. On a 92-degree day with 80% humidity, I'm wearing a proper knit polo that looks like something you'd see at a Miami restaurant, but it breathes like I'm wearing nothing. That's the single biggest reason I'll keep buying from this brand: they make warm-weather knitwear that most American menswear brands don't bother to make at all.
The Sea Island Cotton Tee is one of the best basic tees I own. It's not worth $179 at full price. At $60 on sale, it outperforms most at that tier.
The Silk Cashmere pieces, the crewneck, the zip polo, the long-sleeve polo, are all in bisque because I made a commitment to myself to stop buying black and navy cashmere. They layer over shirts in the rare Florida "cold snap" (which means 68 degrees), and they're the one thing I own that reads as dressed-up without being a sport coat.
The Slim Irish Linen Point Collar Shirt in white is the shirt I wear when I want to look put-together and the linen shirts from my last roundup feel too casual. Collar stays flat, slim enough to tuck.
# The Two Trouser Pieces I'm Still Learning to Rock
I'm going to be honest here. I bought a couple of the bolder trouser pieces that are harder to style with the rest of my wardrobe. I love how they look on the hanger. I love how they look on me. But my current rotation of neutrals and classic basics doesn't always give them a natural home, and I'm still building the confidence to walk out of the house in them.
This is the Todd Snyder effect, and it's worth flagging if you're thinking about buying from them. Their aesthetic is more confident than most American menswear. They'll use a color or a cut or a texture that most would never greenlight. That's a feature, not a bug, but it means some pieces require you to show up for them.
# What's Worth Paying Closer to Retail For
* Sport coats: This is Todd Snyder's lane. Italian fabrics, half-canvas construction, drapes and moves. A navy herringbone sport coat from Todd Snyder sits in a sweet spot between Suitsupply and Canali.
* Their Champion collaborations: Takes vintage Champion silhouettes, crewneck sweatshirts, reverse weave hoodies, and upgrades fit, fabric weight, and colorways. A Todd Snyder x Champion runs $120-170 versus $60 for standard Champion. The difference is real.
* Knit polos, year-round: They fit better than any polo I've owned from Lacoste or Ralph Lauren. Collar lays flat. Sleeve hits mid-bicep. Body slim without being tight.
# What I'd Skip at Full Price
* Basic tees at $80-120. Buck Mason's Slub Tee at $50 is better fabric at a lower price. I'll only buy Todd Snyder tees on sale.
* Accessories (hats, bags, scarves). The markups on small goods are steep and the craftsmanship difference is hard to feel for the price.
* Anything you can get at J.Crew in a similar silhouette. Chinos, basic oxfords, crewneck sweatshirts. Buy those elsewhere and save the Todd Snyder budget for the stuff that's actually distinct.
# Care Is Real
Linen, cashmere, fine knitwear, these fabrics require maintenance. Cold water hand-wash or cold gentle cycle, lay flat to dry, store folded not hung. Cashmere needs a comb after a few wears to pull off the pills. Linen wrinkles if you look at it wrong.
If you don't want to do any of that, Todd Snyder is not the right brand for you. Buy tech-fabric pieces instead. These clothes reward the person willing to do the small amount of upkeep if you put the work in, they'll last for years.
# Bottom Line
Pay full retail for pieces you need right now. The linen button-ups, the shorts, the bracelet these are the items I was going to wear all summer and I wasn't willing to wait five months on a maybe. If you have a specific piece in mind and you'll wear it 20+ times a year, full price is defensible.
Wait for the end-of-year sale to stock up. Sign up for the email list. Mark your calendar for Black Friday. Stack the EXTRA40 code on final sale items. That's when you take the chances the boiled cashmere, the boucle polo, the sweater vest. The stuff you'd never pay retail for but love once you own it. Expect to pay 30-50% of retail at best, and use that math to go deep.
Focus on Todd Snyder's specialties. Sport coats, knit polos, warm-weather knitwear, Champion collabs. These are the items where the craftsmanship and fabric difference is real and worth the brand tax.
Skip the basics and accessories at full price. [Buck Mason](https://go.shopmy.us/p-54322080) tees at $50 do what [Todd Snyder ](https://go.shopmy.us/p-54324253)tees at $179 do. Save the Todd Snyder budget for the pieces that actually feel like Todd Snyder.
If you're buying full retail across the whole catalog, you're paying a tax for the name. If you're mixing some full-price buys on things you need now with a smart sale stockup in December, you're getting a wardrobe of near-luxury-quality pieces for mall-brand money and the result looks like you thought about it.

When he recently negotiated the renewal of his lease, the mall’s new owner asked for more than $10,000 – a 55 per cent fee hike.
The bakery owner, who asked not to be identified out of concern that it might jeopardise future rental negotiations, managed to get this down to a roughly 25 per cent increase, but was offered only a six-month lease extension.
This expires at the end of 2026.
“Before Elegant Group took over as landlord, rental increases did happen, but they were generally at a reasonable and manageable rate, between 5 per cent and 10 per cent,” said the owner.
This example illustrates how a recent influx of foreign investors and businesses is changing Singapore’s retail landscape, with local businesses concerned that they will be pressured by rising rents.
Changing tenant mix
Mr David Hoe, the area’s MP, raised these concerns in Parliament. [In January, he asked the Government](https://www.straitstimes.com/singapore/politics/competition-watchdog-ccs-will-step-in-if-consumer-welfare-is-compromised-low-yen-ling?ref=inline-article)whether it has assessed the impact of the sale of TheClementi Mall on the diversity of the area’s commercial offerings.
According to Realis data, median rents for retail units in Commonwealth Avenue West, where The Clementi Mall and Grantral Mall @ Clementi are located, rose by 29 per cent from 2022 to 2025, compared with 14 per cent islandwide.
The steeper spike in Clementi’s retail rents is driven in part by a surge of mainland Chinese businesses in the area, said Mr Alan Cheong, executive director of research and consultancy at Savills Singapore.
He added that these stores – primarily F&B outlets – are drawn to the area because of its high concentration of Chinese nationals, who are mostly students or graduates of local universities in the west.
Several foreign businesses said they chose to expand in Singapore because its majority Chinese population has similar consumer preferences to mainland China, making it a gateway towards further overseas expansion.
Some of these business owners also have personal reasons for making investments in Singapore.
Yuen Kee’s Mr Wu and Eighteen Plum’s Ms Wang, who both came to Singapore in 2024, said they plan to apply to be permanent residents (PRs).
In the long run, Ms Wang hopes to live in Singapore with her husband – a PR who has worked here as an engineer for two decades.

\-Singaporean realtor Aric Lim, who specialises in mainland Chinese clients, said Singapore is also an appealing location because it is a financial safe haven with a very stable market.
\-“We have relatively low taxes compared with many other countries. We also have no inheritance or capital gains tax,” he said, adding that Singapore has various incentives to attract foreign investors.
\-While rents across Singapore are increasing, Mr Lim said numbers are rising faster in areas where wealthier foreign brands are moving in, putting local businesses at risk of being priced out.
\-On top of high rents, some landlords require tenants to fork out several months’ worth of rental deposits upfront.

While listening to the latest Jimmy Savile episodes, I noticed something odd about how Robert was tracking his age. It felt like Savile was being described as in his twenties or thirties for roughly three decades.
It’s probably not a huge deal, but some parts of his life—like elements of his wrestling career or other activities—happened later than that would imply.
Most specifically, in Episode 3 at \~44:35, Robert mentions Jimmy “encroaching upon becoming middle-aged” in reference to a show that starts in 1975. Savile was born in 1926, so he was actually 48 turning 49 that year (I didn’t double-check the exact premiere month).
I wonder if Robert got a bit fixated on a certain age range while writing the script, or if it’s just one of those things that slips by when you’ve been immersed in the material for so long.
Anyone else notice this?
Honestly, I may have zeroed in on the math because it was easier than fully sitting with some of the more horrific stories from the episode.
*Edit*
A couple of the replies here seemed to indicate that maybe middle-aged means different things to different people. For context, I'm in my early '40s, and I've thought of myself as middle-aged since I was around 35. Also, I didn't mean to make a big deal of it.

The exam contained difficult questions and many drag-and-drop tasks, which were also quite complicated.
The case study was relatively simple.
These two exams will be retired on September 1, 2026, and will be replaced by a single AZ-802 exam.
The certification will always remain valid for the future and can be renewed annually by passing an online assessment (this was confirmed to me by Microsoft itself through a support request - info).
Hello everyone, and happy studying!

**ADDITIONAL:** The article was published in 2011. I thought it was 2024 based on the dates of the earliest archived copies - and I think some of those didn't show the publication date - but the 2011 date means it wasn't actually published after the truth came out.
I don't want to remove the link as it highlights Savile's spport for Israel, but I can't edit the title so cannot remove the misleading information. Apologies for that.

I always thought it was from 2009 / 2010 due to lower intrest rates but Claude suggests there were early housing booms despite higher interest rates. How could house prices increase so much but still remain affoardable to working people pre 2010.
I was wondering, would we likley see a sustained housing boom again? It just doesn't see possible but someone in the 1970s probably didn't think there would be another boom in prices and it seems there were 3: early 2000s; early 2010s due to low rates and the Covid boom
**Biggest percentage increase over a decade: the 1970s** The 1970s saw a massive 343% rise in house prices, driven by eased credit conditions, economic growth, limited housing supply, government policies, and low interest rates. The average house price rose from around £4,480 in 1970 to nearly £19,830 by 1979. [Cladco](https://www.cladco.co.uk/blog/post/history-of-uk-house-prices)
**Biggest single-year annual growth rate: early 2000s** Annual house price growth peaked in January 2003 at 24.8% [Savills](https://www.savills.co.uk/blog/article/372162/residential-property/twenty-five-years-later---how-has-the-housing-market-changed-since-the-turn-of-the-millennium-.aspx), during a boom fuelled by lower mortgage rates and deregulation in the mortgage sector.
**Most recent sharp spike: the Covid-era boom (2021–2022)** The year-on-year annual house price change peaked at 14% in July 2022, following dramatic price rises during the coronavirus pandemic. [Statista](https://www.statista.com/statistics/751619/house-price-change-uk/) In absolute terms, the average UK house price increased by £124,000 between 2013 and 2022.

Hey pessoal, seguinte: Vou me casar e eu sempre odiei usar terno. Sempre tive a sensação de estar sendo enfeitado por outro quando uso, quase uma fantasia. Mas como vou me casar, tô procurando lojas de ternos um pouco mais diferentes, algo mais vintage, como uma calça mais alta e caimento diferente.
Alguém conhece algum lugar com ternos assim em SP?
Which method of studying for an exam has proven to be the most beneficial for you in terms of passing? I’m currently doing LLM designed hands on labs with a Free Trial and I have noticed after my fifth lab that the AZ-104 cram by John Savill makes so much more sense now compared to the first time I gave it go.
I have also realised that simply reading the heavy text MS Learn modules isn’t a guarantee that the material will stick with me, but when I do practice tests (TD, MS Learn and LLMs), and afterwards read the results showing why this answer was right and why that answer was wrong, it does persist as gained knowledge.
What about you guys?
Please share your methods. 👍

What do you think? Is what follows sufficient evidence? Not a mathematical proof but but enough for a court of law (which generally requires a 90-95 pct likelihood).
I will start with hard scientific evidence. Then I will follow with arguments of reason. How the principles of Christianity uphold human flourishing with a wisdom that is beyond men.
Both Grock and ChatGPT agreed that the Shroud of Turin proves the resurrection of Christ beyond a reasonable doubt!!! But it took about 30 pages of debate to get them to agree (If you comment to this post and request their conclusions I can respond with it, but please be patient). In other words they put a probability of it occurring at about 98 to 99%. That exceeds the standards of proof in a court of law! Could this mean that all the greatest questions that have plagued mankind since the beginning of time have been answered?! Is there a God? if so, who is he? Where did I come from, what is the purpose of meaning of my life? What am I supposed to do with my life? And most of all, what will in the end become of me? That is the ultimate question and therefore, I highly recommend that you read the arguements below that convinced AI models that the resurrection is true.
Whatever you do, don’t take Wikipedia seriously. It’s a joke. For example, in their article on “fringe theories about the shroud of Turin”, they present a counter argument of the studies conducted by a team of scientist at the national labs in Italy ENEA, headed by Paul De Lazzaro, one of the top radiation scientist in Europe, who has been published hundreds of times and his work has been cited thousands of times, who published peer-review studies that demonstrated that the only way you can approximate the image making process on the shroud of Turin at the microscopic and molecular level was by using ultraviolet laser radiation. (The lights and darks which make up the image are caused by different degrees of dehydration). Wikipedia attempts to rebut these studies with a counter argument from a so-called “skeptic”, who happens to be a PhD in English. All he had to say was that there was “nothing new there despite being dressed up in hi-tech tests, and they don't prove much of anything” That’s it!
HARD SCIENTIFIC ARGUEMENTS:
The Shroud of Turin is the possibly the most scientifically studied artifact in human history. It is a photograph from centuries before the invention of photography. Linen cloth is not light-sensitive, and no pigments or binders are present. Over thirty scientists from various institutions, the most widely represented of which were the Los Alamos National Laboratory (atom bomb), the U.S. Air Force Academy, and the Jet Propulsion Laboratory (NASA/Caltech/Mars Rover) ruled out every known human method of image formation. To date, dozens if not hundreds attempts have failed to replicate the chemical and physical qualities of the shroud image at the molecular and microscopic level. One method and only one,however, has come very close. Ultraviolet laser radiation. Read on…
1. The shroud is a photo-negative image created centuries before the invention of photography. It is unique in that it is a photograph without a photographer, camera, light, sensitive film, shutter to regulate light, and a natural source of light. Because linen is not light-sensitive, the energy involved must have been extraordinary. Comparable effects have been observed in Hiroshima and Nagasaki.
2. The shroud of Turin encodes three-dimensional distance information, such as a topographical map, and unlike any other known two-dimensional image. Darker areas correspond to closer cloth vs distance, lighter areas to greater cloth vs body distance. This spatial encoding indicates energy radiating outward from the body rather than external application by an artist.
3. Ultraviolet radiation experiments - The only known method that comes close to mimicking Shroud image properties at the microscopic level involves high-intensity ultraviolet radiation.
4. Anatomical accuracy beyond medieval knowledge —The Shroud is anatomically correct, whereas the greatest paintings of the 14th consistently exhibit obvious anatomical distortions.
5. Carbon dating flaws — One of the original carbon-dating laboratories, Oxford, published a paper in 2019 stating that the 1988 radiocarbon dating was flawed because of problems with samples and data, and can no longer be considered definitive. The tested samples were not representative of the entire cloth and yielded dates which conformed to a linear regression line indicating younger dates when samples were taken closer to the body. All other dating methods point toward authenticity.
6. Movement of the Shroud from Middle East to Europe. The media consistently claims that there's nothing to know of the Shroud prior to 1354. There are, in fact, numerous writings prior to 1204 in Constantinople making a reference to a full-body cloth that wrapped Christ after his crucifixion. Constantinople was sacked by French and Venetian knights in 1204, causing the brother of the deposed emperor of Constantinople to write a letter to the pope complaining about missing relics and especially the cloth that covered the body of Christ, which he said was believed to have gone to Athens. The Grand Lord of Athens was Othon de la Roche. When the Shroud appeared in Europe in 1354, it was in the possession of a married couple, and the name of the wife was Jeanne de Vergy. Jeanne was the great, great granddaughter of Othon de la Roche! This puts the Shroud back to 1204 at least, a date which the carbon dating calculates is virtually impossible.
7. Probability analysis – We consider all of the unusual characteristics of the crucifixion and burial of Christ, such as wrapped in cloth (1/100), body missing/separated from the cloth/ no bodily decay (1/500), hasty burial/no washing/no anointing (1/20), and others listed below. The coincidence that someone other than Christ would have all these characteristics in their execution and burial is one-in-billions. (There are 7+ factors and the probabilities are to be multiplied by one another, assuming independence)
\-Wrapped in a cloth 1/100
\-Cap of Thorns 1/500
\-Transport of the cross 1/2
\-Crucifixion with nails 1/2
\-The side wound/legs unbroken 1/10
\-Hasty burial, no washing/anointing 1/20
\-Body gone/separated from cloth/before decay 1/500
\-An “unclean” cloth preserved for 2000 years. 1/???
8. Blood deposited before image formation — Microscopic examination shows that the blood came first and the image later. If the image were painted, microscopic gaps between blood and image fibers would be visible. None exist.
9. Nail wounds through the wrists - Medieval art consistently places nail wounds in the palms. The Shroud correctly shows wounds through the wrists, which are capable of supporting body weight during crucifixion.
10. Serum halos visible under ultraviolet fluorescence — Only under fluorescent light are halos visible around bloodstains from the chest wound. This wound occurred postmortem and caused blood solids to separate from serum—an effect unknown to medieval artists.
11. Extreme superficiality and resolution. The image exists at a depth of 200–500 billionths of a meter, roughly the size of a virus. Many markings are smaller than bacteria or smartphone pixels, ruling out any artistic medium or tool.
12. Impossibility of fabrication, past and present. The Shroud was and is impossible to reproduce today given financial, technological, and energy constraints. For years a $1 million reward has been offered to anybody who could replicate the shroud and so far there have been no takers.

REASON BASED ARGUEMENTS...
THE WISDOM OF CHRISTIANITY IS BEYOND THAT OF MEN:
Commandment: Love your neighbor as yourself, turn the other cheek, and love even your enemies
Effect: Short circuits the cycle of violence. Allows for a decent civil society, rather than living in constant fear.
Commandment: Go forth and multiply
Effect: Preserves mankind’s apparent immortality. Greatest joy and love in life comes from children. Children facilitates the process of “dying to self.”
Commandment: No sex unless it is open to life and is between two people who have made a sacred oath to stay together (for the obvious benefit of the life that is to come).
Effect: Easy sex separated from the transmission of life can become a maddening addiction (Jeffrey Epstein and accomplices, Harvey Weinstein, Bill Cosby, Larry Nassar, Jimmy Savile, Roman Polanski, Jerry Sandusky). On average, children who grow up with a father in the home do better. Birth control backed by abortion allows the postponement/reduction of births thus creating a demographic time bomb in the West and East Asia.
Commandment: indissolubility of marriage
Effect: This protects women especially. Everyone needs someone, especially in old age. Over the decades, women lose their looks and the children grow up and leave the home. Many men become more powerful and wealthier as they age. Many wives are traded in for the latest model. Being forced to work out your problems makes you a better person. Adultery puts the marriage and family at great risk and often leads to divorce and remarriage. To stay married until death requires that you conquer self. Conquering self is what is required to enter heaven.
Commandment: Keep Holy the Sabbath
Effect: People need to stay close to God and not drift away. Keeping the faith is hard and you need to nourish your faith and be encouraged in it. Any spiritual coach would tell you that you need to show up for practice. Polls suggest weekly church attendance is conducive to greater happiness.
Christian Principle: We are all equal in the eyes of God. We are all children of God.
Effect: Fostered the creation of societies in which the individual matters. Good will must be extended not just with in the tribe, but instead it must be extended universally.
Other Commandments/Principles:
Commandment: You shall have no other gods before Me.
Effect: Prevents the state, politics, race, sex, money, or ideology from becoming ultimate. Keeps ultimate authority above human power. Limits tyranny. Reminds man he is not God.
Commandment: You shall not bear false witness.
Effect: Makes trust possible. Makes contracts possible. Makes courts possible. Makes commerce possible. A society built on lies collapses.
Commandment: You shall not covet.
Effect: Undermines envy. Prevents resentment from becoming a political weapon. Encourages gratitude rather than class hatred. Keeps desire from becoming disordered.
Commandment: Honor your father and mother.
Effect: Preserves intergenerational continuity. Teaches respect for authority. Prevents permanent rebellion culture. Stabilizes the family which stabilizes society.
Commandment: You shall not murder.
Effect: Grounds the sanctity of life. Protects the weak. Establishes that human beings are not disposable. Makes human rights possible.
Commandment: Care for widows, orphans, and the poor.
Effect: Humanizes economic systems. Prevents pure survival-of-the-strong societies. Extends compassion beyond blood ties. Softens harshness without abolishing responsibility.
Christian Principle: Deny yourself. Take up your cross.
Effect: Trains impulse control. Strengthens discipline and counters addiction culture. Teaches that freedom comes from mastery of self, not indulgence of appetite.
Commandment: You must forgive, or you will not be forgiven
Effect: Makes reconciliation possible. Prevents endless revenge cycles. Allows people to repent and re-enter society. Keeps every failure from becoming permanent exile.
