There's no job like this. 37 00:02:24,000 --> 00:02:29,000 Speaker 7: This is the most important job in the world. Just 38 00:02:29,080 --> 00:02:31,800 Speaker 7: as I did it my first term. We had a 39 00:02:31,800 --> 00:02:35,280 Speaker 7: great first term, a great, great first term. I will 40 00:02:35,320 --> 00:02:40,200 Speaker 7: govern by a simple motto.

For everything they 47 00:03:12,760 --> 00:03:16,160 Speaker 8: take away, they put something back in. Two of the 48 00:03:16,240 --> 00:03:20,079 Speaker 8: Republicans who've broken with President Trump have announced they will 49 00:03:20,120 --> 00:03:25,280 Speaker 8: not be running for reelection. That is Tom Tillis, Good riddance, 50 00:03:25,760 --> 00:03:30,040 Speaker 8: and Don Bacon. I think there are more on the way, 51 00:03:30,160 --> 00:03:35,320 Speaker 8: and they're not the only two. This morning, President Trump 52 00:03:36,000 --> 00:03:42,040 Speaker 8: left just almost exactly two hours ago for Alligator Alcatraz, 53 00:03:42,120 --> 00:03:46,320 Speaker 8: the new immigration detention facility into Florida Everglades, he will 54 00:03:46,360 --> 00:03:50,800 Speaker 8: participate in a walking tour in about forty five minutes, 55 00:03:52,000 --> 00:03:56,920 Speaker 8: drawing attention to Alligator Alcatraz, and then he will have 56 00:03:57,080 --> 00:04:01,760 Speaker 8: a roundtable discussion at eleven five am Eastern, so ten 57 00:04:01,800 --> 00:04:05,760 Speaker 8: oh five Central, and then just past noon he will 58 00:04:05,800 --> 00:04:10,480 Speaker 8: depart to return to the White House. The Chairman of 59 00:04:10,520 --> 00:04:15,040 Speaker 8: the Fed, Jerome Powell, is to speak in about twenty 60 00:04:15,080 --> 00:04:20,120 Speaker 8: minutes with May data for the government's job openings and 61 00:04:20,279 --> 00:04:26,680 Speaker 8: Labor Turnover survey due in about forty five minutes are 62 00:04:26,760 --> 00:04:31,000 Speaker 8: the as are the ISM report on June manufacturing and 63 00:04:31,120 --> 00:04:37,400 Speaker 8: construction spending data for May. There is a strong push 64 00:04:37,720 --> 00:04:42,800 Speaker 8: by President Trump for a lowering of interest rates. The 65 00:04:42,880 --> 00:04:49,600 Speaker 8: economy is booming, we don't have inflation, and higher interest 66 00:04:49,720 --> 00:04:54,599 Speaker 8: rates are designed to bring down inflation. The President wants 67 00:04:55,320 --> 00:04:59,919 Speaker 8: a lower interest rate down to one percent. Let's asking 68 00:05:00,120 --> 00:05:03,080 Speaker 8: for the world, but hey, why not ask for everything 69 00:05:03,120 --> 00:05:04,880 Speaker 8: and settle for somewhere in between. 70 00:05:06,200 --> 00:05:09,480 Speaker 2: That's the Trump way. So we shall see. 71 00:05:09,600 --> 00:05:14,640 Speaker 8: That will be a developing story in coming days. As 72 00:05:14,680 --> 00:05:19,120 Speaker 8: I said, Don Bacon will be departing, as will Tom Tillis. 73 00:05:19,120 --> 00:05:22,800 Speaker 8: They will not be running for reelection, and I say 74 00:05:23,040 --> 00:05:26,719 Speaker 8: good riddance, goodbye. I don't think we will miss them, 75 00:05:27,160 --> 00:05:30,640 Speaker 8: not even a little bit. Well, it is July first, 76 00:05:30,680 --> 00:05:34,359 Speaker 8: and that means it is Bobby Benia Day. One of 77 00:05:34,400 --> 00:05:39,200 Speaker 8: the best deals in sports, though not the best, probably 78 00:05:39,279 --> 00:05:42,240 Speaker 8: goes to the Silna Brothers, who received a portion of 79 00:05:42,440 --> 00:05:46,800 Speaker 8: NBA's TV rights fees, making three hundred million dollars plus 80 00:05:46,839 --> 00:05:50,159 Speaker 8: when the league bought them out in nineteen seventy six. 81 00:05:51,080 --> 00:05:55,080 Speaker 8: On July first of every deal of every year until 82 00:05:55,120 --> 00:05:59,480 Speaker 8: twenty thirty five, Bobby Bania gets one point one nine 83 00:05:59,560 --> 00:06:04,719 Speaker 8: million from the New York Mets, twenty five installments of 84 00:06:04,760 --> 00:06:09,040 Speaker 8: one point one nine million dollars all for deferring only 85 00:06:09,120 --> 00:06:14,440 Speaker 8: five point nine million In nineteen ninety nine, Bobby Bania 86 00:06:14,480 --> 00:06:18,560 Speaker 8: tells USA Today Sports, it's bigger than my birthday. When 87 00:06:18,560 --> 00:06:21,159 Speaker 8: that day comes, I get texts all day long, and 88 00:06:21,160 --> 00:06:23,320 Speaker 8: a couple days after, and maybe a day or two before. 89 00:06:23,720 --> 00:06:26,000 Speaker 8: Everybody just seems to love that day and have fun 90 00:06:26,040 --> 00:06:26,599 Speaker 8: with it. 91 00:06:26,600 --> 00:06:29,640 Speaker 2: It's become a pretty big thing. The money is. 92 00:06:29,600 --> 00:06:32,200 Speaker 8: Part of a deferred buyout deal paid over twenty five 93 00:06:32,240 --> 00:06:34,920 Speaker 8: installments that the team agreed to after the nineteen ninety 94 00:06:35,000 --> 00:06:38,960 Speaker 8: nine season. Bania was owed five point nine million dollars, 95 00:06:39,560 --> 00:06:43,520 Speaker 8: but Instead of simply footing the bill, the Mets agreed 96 00:06:43,600 --> 00:06:46,320 Speaker 8: to a delayed annual payment so it wouldn't show up 97 00:06:46,360 --> 00:06:49,880 Speaker 8: on the on their it wouldn't count against them that year, 98 00:06:50,880 --> 00:06:56,320 Speaker 8: instead for an annual payment plan that went into effect 99 00:06:56,680 --> 00:07:00,359 Speaker 8: eleven years later in twenty eleven. In total, the Mets 100 00:07:00,400 --> 00:07:03,359 Speaker 8: will pay Bania twenty nine point eight million dollars in 101 00:07:03,400 --> 00:07:07,599 Speaker 8: the yearly payments. The Mets' final Bobby Bania payment is 102 00:07:07,680 --> 00:07:12,200 Speaker 8: set for twenty thirty five, when the six time All 103 00:07:12,240 --> 00:07:17,600 Speaker 8: Star will be seventy two years old. That is the 104 00:07:17,640 --> 00:07:21,080 Speaker 8: most amazing deal in baseball. And the fact that Benia 105 00:07:22,160 --> 00:07:25,600 Speaker 8: did that, the fact that he deferred gratification. You know, 106 00:07:25,680 --> 00:07:27,960 Speaker 8: you tell a kid you have ice cream today or 107 00:07:28,040 --> 00:07:30,320 Speaker 8: no ice cream for a week, and then ice cream for. 108 00:07:30,280 --> 00:07:31,760 Speaker 2: A day for the rest of your life. Oh, that 109 00:07:31,840 --> 00:07:32,520 Speaker 2: got'sham right now. 110 00:07:33,560 --> 00:07:37,760 Speaker 8: Most almost all professional athletes would not have been able 111 00:07:37,800 --> 00:07:43,480 Speaker 8: to defer five point nine million dollars for twelve years 112 00:07:43,520 --> 00:07:46,440 Speaker 8: in return for getting one point one to nine million 113 00:07:46,480 --> 00:07:48,800 Speaker 8: dollars for twenty five years thereafter. 114 00:07:49,320 --> 00:07:50,080 Speaker 2: But he did. 115 00:07:51,400 --> 00:07:55,240 Speaker 8: Every single day, I see some report on how your 116 00:07:55,320 --> 00:08:00,480 Speaker 8: money grows if invested the earlier you start, and wonder 117 00:08:00,520 --> 00:08:05,360 Speaker 8: why more people don't do that, just a little deferred 118 00:08:05,400 --> 00:08:06,800 Speaker 8: gratification for. 119 00:08:06,920 --> 00:08:10,960 Speaker 2: A whole lot more money on the back of Happy Tuesday. 120 00:08:11,000 --> 00:08:17,480 Speaker 2: Glad you're with a grade show. At least chairs can't 121 00:08:17,600 --> 00:08:18,360 Speaker 2: rolling around. 122 00:08:19,760 --> 00:08:25,840 Speaker 4: Damn it all right, this is Mark Chestnut Enjoy Bizaar 123 00:08:26,000 --> 00:08:27,000 Speaker 4: of Talk Radio. 124 00:08:35,480 --> 00:08:40,840 Speaker 8: On Thursday, we will talk to Mohit Kara, my urologist 125 00:08:40,920 --> 00:08:46,679 Speaker 8: and dear friend. The reason for that was yesterday we 126 00:08:46,679 --> 00:08:51,120 Speaker 8: were talking about the effects of the extreme heat and 127 00:08:52,760 --> 00:08:56,120 Speaker 8: some tips and advice for how to handle that, and 128 00:08:56,160 --> 00:08:58,160 Speaker 8: we talked to some folks that work out in it 129 00:08:59,040 --> 00:08:59,839 Speaker 8: all day every day. 130 00:08:59,840 --> 00:09:01,120 Speaker 2: You got to get pretty smart to. 131 00:09:01,080 --> 00:09:04,600 Speaker 8: Survive it and to keep from passing out or quitting. 132 00:09:06,640 --> 00:09:09,199 Speaker 8: Especially the older you get, you got to learn more 133 00:09:09,200 --> 00:09:11,680 Speaker 8: and more techniques because your body's just not as strong. 134 00:09:11,880 --> 00:09:13,440 Speaker 2: You also learn to pace yourself better. 135 00:09:13,480 --> 00:09:15,640 Speaker 8: I think somebody emailed me and said, you got to 136 00:09:15,679 --> 00:09:18,679 Speaker 8: be careful because this is when people get kidney stones 137 00:09:18,679 --> 00:09:21,640 Speaker 8: at a much higher rate. The dehydration leads to that. 138 00:09:22,760 --> 00:09:26,199 Speaker 8: So I sent Mohit Kara that message and I said, 139 00:09:26,240 --> 00:09:29,360 Speaker 8: is that true? He is, It's absolutely true. And we 140 00:09:29,360 --> 00:09:34,920 Speaker 8: were talking about the urological function from a purely excretory basis, 141 00:09:35,000 --> 00:09:35,240 Speaker 8: not the. 142 00:09:35,240 --> 00:09:37,560 Speaker 2: Sexual side of what he does and. 143 00:09:38,960 --> 00:09:41,640 Speaker 8: What's important, what to look for and those sorts of things, 144 00:09:41,679 --> 00:09:45,079 Speaker 8: and I asked him to join us on Thursday. He 145 00:09:45,280 --> 00:09:49,240 Speaker 8: is an absolutely wonderful doctor, but he's also a great teacher. 146 00:09:49,679 --> 00:09:51,760 Speaker 2: He can talk about things that. 147 00:09:53,360 --> 00:09:57,560 Speaker 8: I think most people don't talk about in public, and 148 00:09:57,600 --> 00:10:00,559 Speaker 8: he just talks about it in a very dry, scientific 149 00:10:00,600 --> 00:10:04,680 Speaker 8: manner that exposes it and explains it very well. Ramon, 150 00:10:04,760 --> 00:10:07,760 Speaker 8: did you have a term for a man's willy when 151 00:10:07,760 --> 00:10:09,480 Speaker 8: you were little that you could say that you wouldn't 152 00:10:09,480 --> 00:10:11,760 Speaker 8: get in trouble for saying it?

And I pulled my little 178 00:11:22,679 --> 00:11:25,280 Speaker 8: shorts down and pull it out and start peeing. 179 00:11:25,840 --> 00:11:29,680 Speaker 2: And he said, burns your bippy.

Anyway, I'm not really sure why 184 00:11:40,760 --> 00:11:43,520 Speaker 8: I remember to tell you that but that story I'm 185 00:11:43,559 --> 00:11:45,360 Speaker 8: still mad about.

They have now dropped that tech tax. 345 00:21:40,240 --> 00:21:44,120 Speaker 8: The Home Depot has made a four point three billion 346 00:21:44,200 --> 00:21:49,760 Speaker 8: dollar acquisition that would, they believe, expand their customer base 347 00:21:49,800 --> 00:21:55,320 Speaker 8: to home building professionals. In addition to just do it yourselfers. 348 00:21:55,359 --> 00:21:57,720 Speaker 8: They have bought a company called GMS for four point 349 00:21:57,800 --> 00:22:01,400 Speaker 8: three billion dollars in an attempt to bring in more 350 00:22:01,440 --> 00:22:05,760 Speaker 8: of the folks who are professional builders, whereas they think 351 00:22:05,800 --> 00:22:07,159 Speaker 8: they may have tapped out the. 352 00:22:08,640 --> 00:22:10,119 Speaker 2: Do it yourself for is like you and me. 353 00:22:10,840 --> 00:22:14,320 Speaker 8: The chain that beats Starbucks in China is coming to 354 00:22:14,359 --> 00:22:17,960 Speaker 8: the United States. It's called Luckin Coffee or Lucan Coffee 355 00:22:18,040 --> 00:22:22,119 Speaker 8: luc ki n. They've opened two stores in New York City. 356 00:22:22,480 --> 00:22:25,960 Speaker 8: It is China's answer to Starbucks, and as you might imagine, 357 00:22:26,000 --> 00:22:29,360 Speaker 8: it is a cheaper version, not real hard to do. 358 00:22:29,960 --> 00:22:32,520 Speaker 8: I was surprised to see the story this morning, the 359 00:22:32,680 --> 00:22:38,239 Speaker 8: w NBA is expanding to add three new teams the 360 00:22:38,280 --> 00:22:42,880 Speaker 8: Women's Basketball League, and all I can figure is they 361 00:22:42,920 --> 00:22:45,920 Speaker 8: claim that viewership is up, attendance is up, merch sales 362 00:22:45,920 --> 00:22:50,560 Speaker 8: are up. The only this takes them to eighteen franchises. 363 00:22:51,040 --> 00:22:55,199 Speaker 8: The only thing I can think is that this is 364 00:22:55,320 --> 00:23:01,200 Speaker 8: all a marketing ploy. This Caitlin Clark, the black lesbians 365 00:23:01,359 --> 00:23:06,760 Speaker 8: out to get the straight white woman, and that this 366 00:23:06,960 --> 00:23:09,800 Speaker 8: is how they get people to talk about it, because 367 00:23:09,840 --> 00:23:12,920 Speaker 8: it's the only thing anybody ever talks about. Nobody ever 368 00:23:12,960 --> 00:23:16,280 Speaker 8: talks about the sport itself. They just talk about whether 369 00:23:16,320 --> 00:23:18,520 Speaker 8: the black girls don't like Caitlin Clark and what they're 370 00:23:18,560 --> 00:23:21,440 Speaker 8: saying about her, and Angel Reaves called her a hoe 371 00:23:21,520 --> 00:23:24,720 Speaker 8: or a bitch or whatever other gutter slang Angel Reese 372 00:23:25,720 --> 00:23:29,160 Speaker 8: speaks to. And then you've got the black lesbian women 373 00:23:29,320 --> 00:23:34,240 Speaker 8: just constantly trying to kill her. And that's kind of 374 00:23:34,320 --> 00:23:36,720 Speaker 8: reminds me of what the Pistons did to Michael Jordan 375 00:23:36,760 --> 00:23:38,439 Speaker 8: for a couple of years till he beefed up and 376 00:23:38,480 --> 00:23:42,199 Speaker 8: they got some more help for him. I guess it 377 00:23:42,280 --> 00:23:45,280 Speaker 8: was Oakley and a few others to get him over 378 00:23:45,320 --> 00:23:47,200 Speaker 8: the top, and then they never looked. 379 00:23:46,960 --> 00:23:47,639 Speaker 2: Back after that. 380 00:23:47,920 --> 00:23:51,480 Speaker 8: President Trump has threatened Japan with new tariffs, saying that 381 00:23:51,520 --> 00:23:52,280 Speaker 8: we want that. 382 00:23:55,119 --> 00:23:56,840 Speaker 2: We won't buy. 383 00:23:58,440 --> 00:24:02,600 Speaker 8: I'm sorry, say Japan say that they won't buy American 384 00:24:02,680 --> 00:24:07,000 Speaker 8: rice even though they are suffering an American rice shortage. 385 00:24:07,119 --> 00:24:09,040 Speaker 2: I was reading an article yesterday. 386 00:24:09,119 --> 00:24:14,600 Speaker 8: On how many American industries, including agricultural have the capacity 387 00:24:14,640 --> 00:24:18,320 Speaker 8: to solve the problems for so much of the world's markets, 388 00:24:19,000 --> 00:24:22,920 Speaker 8: and we are simply closed off to them. If you're 389 00:24:22,960 --> 00:24:26,560 Speaker 8: the president and you give a damn, there's no way 390 00:24:26,600 --> 00:24:29,600 Speaker 8: you wouldn't say, all right, let's solve this problem, and 391 00:24:29,680 --> 00:24:31,640 Speaker 8: let's solve this problem right now. 392 00:24:32,359 --> 00:24:33,399 Speaker 2: Ramon if you would. 393 00:24:33,440 --> 00:24:39,159 Speaker 8: This is Chad's prep clip Number nine. Harris County Commissioner's 394 00:24:39,200 --> 00:24:42,960 Speaker 8: Court has a one point three billion dollar shortfall. Surprise, 395 00:24:43,359 --> 00:24:47,199 Speaker 8: Rodney blew a bunch of money after voters had already 396 00:24:47,240 --> 00:24:49,800 Speaker 8: approved a two and a half billion dollar bond in 397 00:24:49,880 --> 00:24:52,919 Speaker 8: twoenty eighteen for flood projects. 398 00:24:53,920 --> 00:24:57,240 Speaker 2: Well, now Rodney's going to have the money. 399 00:24:57,040 --> 00:25:01,160 Speaker 8: Go exclusively to the people that Rodney Ellis chooses under 400 00:25:01,200 --> 00:25:05,480 Speaker 8: his you're ready for this equity prioritization index. 401 00:25:06,040 --> 00:25:07,360 Speaker 2: Oh, isn't that nice? 402 00:25:07,800 --> 00:25:12,800 Speaker 8: An equity prioritization index folks, your guilt is going to 403 00:25:12,960 --> 00:25:15,520 Speaker 8: kill you. These people will abuse you to know in 404 00:25:15,680 --> 00:25:19,040 Speaker 8: and have you feeling bad about it. That will defund 405 00:25:19,200 --> 00:25:26,560 Speaker 8: all projects that fall outside of Rodney Ellis's equity prioritization framework. Rodney, 406 00:25:27,080 --> 00:25:29,359 Speaker 8: just take the money and say I'm taking the money. 407 00:25:29,400 --> 00:25:32,679 Speaker 8: Don't pretend you're doing anything good for anybody. I could 408 00:25:32,720 --> 00:25:36,440 Speaker 8: respect that a whole lot more. Tom Ramsey on Fox 409 00:25:36,480 --> 00:25:37,000 Speaker 8: twenty six. 410 00:25:38,640 --> 00:25:41,160 Speaker 11: I can tell you most of the media, include any 411 00:25:41,200 --> 00:25:46,320 Speaker 11: Houston chronicle, has essentially ignored this vote, ignored what happened 412 00:25:46,400 --> 00:25:50,320 Speaker 11: last Thursday. I've been on court for five years. This 413 00:25:50,400 --> 00:25:54,720 Speaker 11: is the most consequential vote that I've participated in since 414 00:25:54,760 --> 00:25:58,000 Speaker 11: I've been on Commissioner's Court. And the reason is in 415 00:25:58,040 --> 00:26:03,200 Speaker 11: twenty eighteen, voters approved by over eighty percent to do 416 00:26:03,440 --> 00:26:08,480 Speaker 11: flood mitigation projects. They even listed the twenty two watersheds 417 00:26:08,480 --> 00:26:11,800 Speaker 11: and the specific projects that we were going to do 418 00:26:12,240 --> 00:26:15,320 Speaker 11: in each one of the precincts in each one of 419 00:26:15,320 --> 00:26:19,600 Speaker 11: the watersheds, So it was very fair, very clear, it 420 00:26:19,640 --> 00:26:20,960 Speaker 11: was very defined in. 421 00:26:21,000 --> 00:26:22,440 Speaker 2: Terms of what we were going to do. 422 00:26:23,200 --> 00:26:28,679 Speaker 11: So the vote last Thursday essentially through a big monkey 423 00:26:28,800 --> 00:26:32,639 Speaker 11: ranch into the whole plan and the problem is the 424 00:26:32,760 --> 00:26:38,000 Speaker 11: vote was to prioritize everything in quartile one. And you say, 425 00:26:38,480 --> 00:26:41,680 Speaker 11: I don't remember seeing quartaile one on the. 426 00:26:41,800 --> 00:26:44,280 Speaker 2: Vote when we voted. It wasn't. 427 00:26:44,480 --> 00:26:49,880 Speaker 11: It's a made up formula, a flawed formula, a formula 428 00:26:49,960 --> 00:26:53,480 Speaker 11: that is not fair to what we voted on. 429 00:26:53,440 --> 00:26:56,000 Speaker 2: Back in twenty eighteen. Let me give you an example. 430 00:26:56,720 --> 00:27:02,760 Speaker 11: So the formula was supposed to give priority to underserved neighborhoods. 431 00:27:03,400 --> 00:27:05,679 Speaker 11: So I did a test to the formula. That's what 432 00:27:05,760 --> 00:27:08,760 Speaker 11: I do as an engineer. I tested the formula. So 433 00:27:08,800 --> 00:27:12,880 Speaker 11: I went to the most underserved neighborhood in Precinct three, 434 00:27:13,400 --> 00:27:17,440 Speaker 11: one of the most underserved neighborhoods in the entire county, 435 00:27:17,680 --> 00:27:21,080 Speaker 11: called Barrett Station. You know what quartal that was in 436 00:27:21,960 --> 00:27:25,520 Speaker 11: was and in one, it was in three. Why was 437 00:27:25,520 --> 00:27:28,800 Speaker 11: it in quartile three? Why was it a low priority 438 00:27:29,119 --> 00:27:33,000 Speaker 11: because it was in precinct three. This is a scheme 439 00:27:33,680 --> 00:27:39,280 Speaker 11: to to move money from half the county into precincts 440 00:27:39,359 --> 00:27:40,520 Speaker 11: one and two. 441 00:27:41,040 --> 00:27:42,200 Speaker 2: Just follow the money. 442 00:27:42,520 --> 00:27:45,240 Speaker 11: If you look at what was funded, what they voted 443 00:27:45,240 --> 00:27:48,960 Speaker 11: to fund, you can see that that's very clearly where 444 00:27:49,000 --> 00:27:50,160 Speaker 11: the dollars are going. 445 00:27:51,840 --> 00:27:56,600 Speaker 8: So what he does is he creates these universal basic incomes, 446 00:27:56,920 --> 00:27:58,440 Speaker 8: and then he controls where the money goes. 447 00:27:59,080 --> 00:28:02,480 Speaker 2: He creates that it creates the equity project. 448 00:28:02,840 --> 00:28:05,880 Speaker 8: Oh, we'll give the money to the people who need 449 00:28:05,880 --> 00:28:08,040 Speaker 8: it most. By the way, this is what Mandani is 450 00:28:08,040 --> 00:28:10,639 Speaker 8: doing in New York. This is exactly what he proposes. 451 00:28:11,880 --> 00:28:13,720 Speaker 8: What they mean by that is take it from the 452 00:28:13,720 --> 00:28:15,439 Speaker 8: white people and give it to the black people. Make 453 00:28:15,480 --> 00:28:17,080 Speaker 8: sure you get the credit, and you'll be king of 454 00:28:17,119 --> 00:28:19,240 Speaker 8: the blacks. You'll be king of the world. You'll run 455 00:28:19,280 --> 00:28:22,080 Speaker 8: the place until eventually you run the whites out and 456 00:28:22,119 --> 00:28:26,800 Speaker 8: you'll be left with Detroit. It's exactly what happened in Baltimore, Detroit, Philadelphia. 457 00:28:27,600 --> 00:28:29,080 Speaker 2: This is what Rodney Ellis is doing. 458 00:28:29,640 --> 00:28:33,880 Speaker 8: It is a race base punishment and king making right 459 00:28:33,920 --> 00:28:35,080 Speaker 8: before our very eyes.
