All right, thanks for staying with us. Now Chadwick Boseman Day, observed on the 29th of November, is held on the late star's birthday and is a day for us to remember the actor who sadly left us too soon. Boseman was perhaps most famous for playing Black Panther in a Marvel franchise, but also played James Brown in Get On Up, as well as featuring prominently in 21 Bridges and 42. Known for his welcoming, humble personality and down-to-earth nature, Boseman died on the 28th of August in 2020 as a result of some complications due to column cancer. Now he was 43 years of age when he died and on Chadwick Boseman Day, we remember his talent, but also the wonderful person that he was. I mean, if you watch the Wakanda Forever, it was all over the place. You could tell that there was just something missing and they just tried so hard to ensure that his presence or his absence, you know, wasn't felt that much. But they tried, but they still... It wasn't the same. It wasn't the same, but hey, I mean, Chadwick, I mean, just watching the clips after he had passed, different interviews and everything, he was just one person. He had so much strength. The thing that I found really big about it was that he had been going through it for years and there were interviews where he had fallen asleep because he was just fatigued from all the drugs and people didn't realize that he was ill and they were insulting him, he was losing weight. Meanwhile, a friend of mine lost a son from the same column cancer. Shortly after, he didn't get to live as long as Chadwick did with it and he suffered. So when they say truly that you never know what someone might be going through, for instance, Teni, who just lost weight, we don't even know if he's intentional, if he's cosmetic, do you understand? So let them announce what the changes are all about. I'm just bringing it another way. Because you never know. I remember how people were just attacking him and all of that and nobody knew. Nobody knew. I just feel bad that when his career was just taking off. Sad. All right, so quickly, let's run through our stories because we have a lot to unpack for the topic today. We have to run through. Let me start with you, Mary. Three Nigerian storeways rescued dehydrated after spending 11 days on the rudder of a ship from Nigeria to the Canary Islands. They were found perched on the rudder of the Alintini oil tanker at the last Palmer's port by Spanish coast guard. I don't know how sad it is that we now have to just walk. I'm happy that they found them alive. But I keep on saying that. You're happy they found them alive? Yes, because we lost time. No, why would they not be happy that they found them? They're going to take them back to Nigeria. They're going to let them take them back to Nigeria. That was not the point of taking the risk. No, but some of them have died. Won't they rather die? Just let me land on somebody else's. I don't understand. Have you seen documentaries about storyways and all the people that have tried to go to Turkey through different... They don't care. Just let us take our chances. On Netflix, I think Swimmers, the Swimmers, I don't know if you've seen it. I haven't seen it. But when the war turned, when they left, the two sisters that left and they were... Trying to get away. ...cross the high sea and all... See, my point is I'm happy that they found them alive. I'm happy that they found them alive. Because the things that you hear, how you see a dead body dried up and all of that. Because here, because they were behind the picture. And the stench they would have had to leave with. I'm happy that they were found alive. NJ, your story quickly. Mine says the value of food imports in the second quarter of 2022 close to that 464.45 billion. Showing an increase well compared to the value recorded in the first quarter, which was about 443.36 billion. This was data... This is data from the National Bureau of Statistics. And it's saying that the country has failed to grow more food for its first rising population, which has made the value of the imports so high between the first quarter and the second quarter. I think that that's a difference of about... Yes, it has increased by 4.76%. And it seems like it's only going to get worse. Wester and Wester. Wester and Wester. It just shows that we have a lot to do in this country. Very quickly, I just want to say, Thames says that I am not your Christian savior. I won't fit into the box you're trying to put me, which I can summarize by telling, referring everybody to Philippians 2, 12 to 13. Work out your own salvation with fear and trembling and stop using fellow humans as role models and then try to testize them for living their lives. And playing Georgia and Jewry. Let me keep it brief so we don't... Let's keep it brief. Yes. All right, so Nans, the National Association of Nigerian Students has apologized to Aisha Buhari, the wife of the president over the arrest of the student of the Federal University in Dutisejigawa, Amino Mohammed. I mean, that's the topic we're discussing today. So condemnation, of course, had trailed the arrest. And it was alleged that it was DSS that had picked the guy, but they came out to find out that it was the Federal Capital Territory Police who had traced Mohammed to Dutisejigawa where he was picked up, right? And Nans has apologized on behalf of the student, and they are also asking for his release. And this is a really interesting... Making a statement. Yeah, let's leave the conversation for when we go into the conversation. I just wanted to mention that. Let's leave the conversation. So when we come back from the break, that's our conversation for today. Of course, we're discussing power drunkenness and we're asking, is it possible to curtail in this country? Stay with us, we'll be right back.


Protein interaction networks have become increasingly important for understanding the underlying mechanisms of human diseases. Researchers have used these networks to identify genes and proteins associated with diseases, study network properties, and classify disease genes. Despite this progress, several challenges remain, including the need to integrate high throughput functional genomic data from multiple levels and the development of more personalized, accurate, and rapid diagnostics. Overall, protein interaction networks offer a promising approach to uncovering the molecular basis of diseases and developing new treatments.

Next question is from Lindsay one dove. I'm struggling with pain in my toes and arches. How do you best strengthen the feet? Okay, so there are specific foot exercises that you can do in fact We have a lot of them in our maps prime pro have short foot and piano toes to be specific Yeah, those are two easy ones, right?  It's a slow process. Okay, so what you don't want to do Just like working out the rest of your body You don't want to jump in and do tons and tons of exercises right out the gates You want to start very very slow and be patient with yourself for example piano toes For some people is so frustrating at first that they had they literally have no connection to their toes so you tell them to do piano toes and All the toes move at the same time at the same time to of um, yeah They can't like individually articulate them. It gets frustrating. And so yeah, definitely take your time with it Definitely start with just trying to walk around barefoot Yeah, and that's that's like the easiest way to just like get this going in the right direction Just to be able to start having that sensation and and feel Different surfaces that's all gonna provide feedback and and get you know muscles a little bit more involved in the Stabilization process that maybe we're dormant because of always keeping them confined in this sort of a cast through your shoes And and we're always trying to you know form things for our feet to be comfortable to where we're not really like training them to You'd be able to have like more strength and Stability just like you would any other muscle. So I remember when on dr. Brink really broke me down and Enlightened me on how weak my feet were and that was something that I started to really work on probably what three four years ago now And feel like I've come a long way But I do remember what that looked like when I first started and so I'd first would start with Trying to become be barefoot more often, right? I was never barefoot really and I always trained in shoes and And what I'd have to do before I would start training is I would take the lacrosse ball And I would roll the bottom of my feet just to kind of like wake up everything that was like completely I felt like my foot was like seized up You know like that same when she talks about pain in her toes and then the arch in her feet I had that also so I couldn't go from Training in my shoes my whole life and also in barefoot training because it would cause these like pain in my arches And in my toes so the first thing I'd have to do is to kind of roll everything out with the lacrosse ball And then do exercises like short foot short foot and piano toes It just kind of wake everything up and then after I did that then I would try and you know Intermittently train barefoot which was like once maybe twice a week and then get to the point where I'd start doing these walks And if you've been listening the podcast for which I think Lindsay has so she might remember this I used to like story this on when I was talking a lot about this three four years ago Where I would I started to walk my dogs What one of the two walks I walked my idea walk them barefoot so that was for me That's only like a ten minute little walk that I would do And so I just started incorporating more times where I was outside in dirt on ground Barefoot and then also doing the little short foot and piano and then the lacrosse ball And then it got to a point where that would became very consistent into my routine And then it became I where I was always barefoot training Like I would be barefoot training three to four times a week And then starting to do exercises like tippy-toe squats things that would start to really challenge and strengthen my feet But that first you got to address the the connection the lack of mobility and just getting used to doing that walking on sand It's phenomenal. So if you're somewhere where you can get to a beach or a park Walking around on that was is really good to help strengthen the feet But like what I think Sal said is you just got to be careful or Justin I don't know who said it what you just got to be careful that if you haven't been training this way or addressing this You easily can overreach and then you're gonna be sore and toes and arches hurting Yeah, one thing to add to the walking patterns and just starting with that is to notice where a bit of wear and tears happening with your foot. So a lot of times you'll see that with like calluses or You know like you'll just see like Where where it may be like more pressure that you're applying towards your big toe versus your pinky toe and trying to sort of be conscious of that and even that out in terms of that triangle of points of Pressure applying pressure. So basically like towards where you tie your shoelace Up there versus like your big toe and your pinky sort of distributing that evenly What what a great point one of the things after Brink enlightened me on this I started to kind of look at the the bottoms of my feet more and I actually I used to I You and it's no longer there. So this is like for to give people some hope that that deal with this I had a on my left foot. I had them on both feet, but I had it more on my left foot I had a massive callus that had been there my whole life on the outside of my Excuse me on the inside of my big toe of my left foot because that was always repressing it there Yeah, I was pressing it so proning right so my feet my heels were collapsing inward and I was always putting a lot And it just to this callus. I've had it my whole life and just thought that's how I was It wasn't until I addressed all this and then I become very aware that my feet were collapsing inward And so I always try to put emphasis on rotating out and it started with just the awareness of it like and for me I know we're talking to a girl here. So this is doesn't really apply But just bear with me, you know every time I would go pee in at my house I'd be bearable and I would I would rock on the outside of my feet because I wouldn't it would be standing still for a few seconds and just getting that that understanding what's going on and paying attention to that and I do that at least three to five times in a day and It's just becoming more conscious of how you walk and how you distribute your weight on your feet


During our literacy block, we were finding that students were losing papers and being really forgetful about where things are. So what we did is we created this two-file kind of folder system. And so what we call this is their daily five folders. We have their name on the front and it's basically just two files folders or just pocket folders and we bound them together. And on the inside of each one we did cut out so that since I teach first grade it's easier for them to kind of put papers in and out of. In the first folder we have a label that says read to self. We also have a word work folder. On the inside covers, we've thought about putting different laminated word lists like a site word list or a monthly word list that they could use during their work on writing. And then this is their writing folder. Their red folder says start on writing and then this is their finished work on writing. And so this is just where we can put papers that they've started but they haven't finished and then when they finish they can of course put them there. Try this in your classroom.


Wow, that's a lot of people anyhow, so my name is John Alexis Guerra Gomez Yes, the full thing and I come from a country called Columbia and it's Columbia not Columbia by the way But it's the place where I get to work in this beautiful place This is Los Angeles University. That is what I call work And it's also the place that makes these beautiful mochilas at a wakas and I wonder what the Life-scriber is going to write in there. Anyhow So it's a beautiful country you should come and visit But that's not what I'm here. I'm actually here just because I had a network. Well, actually no I didn't have a network. I had an idea a question the thing is that There was open bees 2014 and 2015 because I didn't know about the conference in the first time and then I realized this thing existed And I couldn't come I applied like three or four times until I bribed Irene. I'm sorry to get accepted But I could follow online so when I was doing that I actually realized some things and the first thing is that I definitely needed to go So I actually ended up paying by my pocket like last year and then the other thing I realized is that thanks to these amazing bloggers and Journalists people we get to follow everything through Twitter in here So that was quite interesting and then I was getting so much information in there But then I asked am I getting it all so am I actually following all the right people that I need to follow in database That are talking actually about that So I started like writing some scripts to see if I can actually see that well, and then I started saying well What if I see and check all the people that are actually talking about open bees? And then I found more than 3,000 tweets and this is from last year's by the way this year. We are around 2500 right now, so we are kind of doubling that And then they were like almost 800 accounts of people tweeting about that and that was interesting But then I had another question like is that what about the interesting people? That are talk interesting database, but they don't really Interacted with the database with the open bees conference. So for instance, where is Mike? There you are So Mike Bostock, he didn't tweet about open bees last year What I mean, what were you doing man? I mean like were you writing version for D3 express one of these things like no, but seriously man Thank you very much. Thank you for all the work you do for the community that is Chakita cheese, Colombian cheese Not from Madrid or sorry Spaniards cheese hours But yes, thank you very much Mike for all the great work you do He didn't tweet about open bees, but we definitely need to be following him Otherwise, we will have messed all of these wonderful stuff about D3 express So he wasn't there. So that's the one I started saying like well, I had a realization What if I follow all the people that you guys follow the most and that wasn't that was the click and that was That's how we celebrate in Colombia and then I say well, that's it I just have to follow the people that you guys follow the most and that's how I come up with this list And of course Mike is on the top of the list apart from the open miss conference and then we have all the big figures in there We have all lovely Organizers and then I knew okay, that it's an inside that's something that I really care about However, I love networks and I come from Maryland and I've done a lot of work on that So and we also have the beautiful D3 Networks visualization. So I say let's visualize that it will be even more clear And then when I started doing that that happened So Nadia already show us some examples of that, but that's what it's called a hairball and that's what this talk is a lot How the heck do we get that thing to actually show insights? And that's the important thing of doing data visualization. So I say well We can come from those 700 notes and then we actually show like say the top 300 and what will we get a hairball? Let's say we only get the most influential ones sort of those 300 let's look only at the ones that were actually tweeting about the open this conference and though it what do we get well a hairball So I say let's find an algorithm that computes the communities in the network and to try to separate the different clusters and get All data scientists and machine learning and blah blah blah that's going to solve the world and what did you get a hairball? So in that moment I say well, let's go back to my question Why was I asking at the beginning and that what I was asking it's What are the most important people that I should be following and then what I did is to create a scatter plot I fixed the the positions and then on the x-axis you have how many people they have Following them overall and then how many people are actually following them inside the conference And by the way, there is an error in here, but Mike Bustock is around here somewhere And what you have to find in here and the interesting things about this Oh, sorry is that he he wasn't talking about open this. Sorry, Mike But in any case what you can find in here is that we were interested it I was interesting in following people around these area I wanted to find people that it wasn't following and they were in here And then you can draw your own conclusions and trying to find Where were the ones that you were in following that with a good balance of how many people follow them at all so to improve this I actually remove the links and that's the visualization I created and then you get the big figures Robert is you in there Jeff Alberto Cairo and all of the nice Infobis people and then the other thing is that with this Representation I could actually add back the notes and in that case that Mike back and then here you have interesting stuff And one of the most interesting ones is this one. You know who is this guy? Oh, I'm sorry. By the way, Mike I need your help getting this thing to work So I hope you still like me Please don't stop follow me So who's that guy who knows That is Edward Tufti and Edward Tufti has around 82,000 followers But if you look at him how many people are actually following him in the conference And that was very interesting because if you know that his relationship with the community on Twitter He's not the best with many people So he was actually amazed to see that reflected in there, but anyhow, you can draw your own conclusions Please please don't stop funding the conference Anyhow so after doing that I say Well, what if we actually look at how many tweets they did in the conference and then is where we have our view Beautiful bloggers and the people that are actually helping us know what it's happening on the conference And then you can see all the nice people that were doing that So this is the type of things that we need to be doing doing network visualizations And there are a bunch of tools and techniques that we can use to actually untangle the hair So let's talk about that. And for that, let's go back to the basics. That's me on graduation day That is Ben and Catherine my two beautiful advisors Ben Schneiderman and Catherine Placent from the wonderful HIL Laboratory in the University of Maryland and every time you talk to them and you start a new project with them They will always say what are your tasks? What are your users and with that that really stick to me and when you're doing a network visualization That's what you need to be asking yourself what it's actually what you want to answer with that visualization So for that, I actually have to recommend you very strongly this book So I'm using this to teach the two classes. I'm teaching on database, but in Los Andes and in Berkeley Well, I'm actually trying to push the people and Berkeley to use it But this is Tamara Monsner's book on data visualization and design And it's a wonderful book because it creates this amazing framework that they've helps you define What is the data that you're analyzing? What are the tasks that you're doing and then how you can actually visualize that? It's a beautiful framework that you can actually follow simple rules And then you will get better visualization just by framing on that as you can see in here I could give you a lecture of like of an a whole hour on the all the different types of tasks But the most important things that I have identified when I'm doing network visualizations is that there are two type of tasks One are overviews if you want to create like get a whole idea of the network And then the other ones is when you want to query in a specific node and those are the query tasks So let's start with the overview tasks so for the overview I have already shown you some things and this is by the way the IEEE v citations network a beautiful herbal this is data up to 20 15 And then the first thing that I recommend you when you're doing that is that instead of trying to show the whole network What you should do is to try to select the most important nodes out of the network How do you get those most important nodes? Well, think about the task you have at hand So in my case when I was looking the open at the open these people Then I wanted to find the people that had the biggest number of followers that actually tweeted about open Things like that when I was finding fishy doctors in Syrox park I was trying to find doctors that had like a very suspicious behavior So you can find different matrix Sorry different metrics that you can actually use to rank those nodes and then you select the most important No, you want in most important ones? However, if you have a very big network the thing is that that network most probably will not be very well connected So one of the simple tricks I did is that once you select that core of 10% of the notes or something then you should go and try to get the neighborhood of that 10% so when you do that is a very simple trick and then you have a small number of notes that will create a Representation of the network and then if you allow the user to actually interact with that and then select different filters Then they can actually get gathered insights from that So the next thing is that you can use communities community detection So that was something very common and I Really hated every time having to go to our and then running the queries in there and closer in there So what I did is that with the help of? Some code that I found online. I created a library called net closer in JS Net cluster in JS is the library that allows you to go from this to this And the most interesting thing is that it actually runs in the browser and the beautiful thing about that Is that you can actually let the user create a lot of filters select the notes? They care about and then cluster and it's actually acceptably fast if you have a good enough network and by by the way If you try to show more than a thousand notes on on a browser There's not much that you can actually see but even on a network like that It will take only one or two seconds to to cluster now even showing something like that You can see that it's like yeah You see the colors and everything but you don't really see the actual clusters So using an algorithm called grouping a box that Receives things on a trim up. Of course. He had to be a trim up. I come from Maryland It separates the notes into their own boxes. That is what is called grouping a box use an algorithm created by Cody Dune or a very good friend of us and Ben Schneiderman many other folks in there and what I did is to create an implementation of that on D3 I did it for D3 version 3 and then Mike changed the whole force simulation thingy But actually with the new system. I don't know if you have done Networks in the in D3 version 4. It's amazing because right now It's just a matter of creating a force that draws the notes to a certain position So today I'm releasing the forcing of ox for D3 version 4 and it's as simple as just adding a new force To your simulation and then setting the different Link strengths and things like that and you can get this now The other thing I created is that if you don't want to see it on a trim up then I actually created a force-directed Metal layout for a force-directed layer So what this thing does is that it creates like clusters and each one of those clusters will look at it as a note And then that note it will be used to create the foci in which each one of those not is going is actually moving So if you actually see here, I can actually spend like the rest 15 minutes of my talk just doing this So it actually will adapt on to whatever Resolution you have in there and all of that is thanks to master Mike So thank you very much and you can actually use it. It's open source and it's super easy to use Please send feedback and things now the other thing that was very useful every time I showed my users these things the next thing they wanted to know is like oh That cluster in the top that one looks suspicious or I want to see who are the people that are in there So that is what I call jump into a cluster So there it is that you can create some interactions that you can click on this And then once you do that it actually goes and only filters that note And since we have the force in a box that can run on the browser Then guess what you can recluster you can redistribute on the screen And then you can keep on repeating that as many times as you want if you're doing that You have to let the user know how deep they are into the rabbit hole But other than that is actually a great way of filtering down into the details on the man That is the the whole idea of drawing insights now having say that Another tip of something that could be really useful for for doing visualization And is what I did with the open miss visualization is just to have a fixed layout. So in this case It was very jealous because You Americans had all of these beautiful grid maps and Chris master once opposed about created his own Representation in which you can actually see the different states with the same size You know, which ones I'm talking about the ones that you see all the time with political results But in Columbia, we didn't have that and then the thing is that actually Chris wrote a beautiful article explaining how you have to Pretty much do that those manually So I didn't have the time to do that But what I did is just I created a force layout that represented the states in Colombia and then just by moving those states I came out came out with this one And it's actually one of my students in Berkeley actually created a new version of this for for the US one And it's actually quite useful. He's not really truly a network But he kind of explains the idea of why fixing things into certain positions can be useful now having say that The other type of things that you can do on query or sorry on networks are query And by querying what I mean is that you choose one node and out of that note You can start creating something like a that I call egocentric views So we did the type of egocent the the quote of queries that you can do with egocentric views is the same type of things that we saw early this morning with nothing That is that you select what note and then you see what are the notes that are connected to them That are one test one or two or three steps away from them And then if you can provide interactions that allow people to select one note and then expand that one on demand That is marvelous for them, but I don't have much time for this So I'm not going I'm going to jump very quickly on that now All of that is all the different things that have been doing on D3 that helped me untangle in networks But I also wanted to share and this is for the first time in the world We are talking about network cube net network cube is a project initiated by John Daniel Fekete Benjamin back Natalie and Paula and a manually or whatever you pronounce his name They have been created this open source Application that is actually a framework that you can go and upload your own data And the nicest thing about it is that it has the basics network visualizations But apart from that they also have different representations that go beyond the node link representation So if you guys actually click on the note link, it will scale very well And it's also for dynamic networks, so it will work if your network changes over time But apart from that you can use matrix representations You can use timelines we already hear about them earlier today or you can use even mixed approaches So it's free for use. It's not commercial And it's just an initiative that we have been creating just to allow people to untangle more networks So please feel free to use it and just to go and visit the website And let us know if you guys have any feedback on that so with that I will like just to give you some A bunch of recommendations of the type of things that you can do for Defining your networks and is that always remember to define your tasks always remember that if you filter Actually, you could be showing more sometimes less is more That you have to define if you have tasks that are for overview or for query And that there are many other alternatives beyond the node link that you can actually use with that by the way That should be updating life on the tweets that you guys are doing I have been creating the hairball for for this year. So there you go. So that appears a new one So with that I will thank you very much and welcome any questions you may have


Russia's FSB security service said on June 23 it had detained five people who were trying to buy one kilogram of radioactive cesium-137 for $3.5 million on behalf of a citizen of Ukraine, Russian state-owned TV channel Rossiya24 reported. The FSB was cited as saying that the cesium-137 was meant to be taken out of Russia to be used to stage an incident with purported weapons of mass destruction aimed at discrediting Russia. Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky said this week that Ukrainian spies had received information showing Russia was considering carrying out a terrorist attack at the Russian-controlled Zaporizhya nuclear plant in southern Ukraine involving a release of radiation.


I'm delighted to introduce the first speaker of the afternoon, Dr. David Sheetemire. David and I have known each other a long time. He was in not the first but the second fellowship class, the great class of 1987. How many were in that class, David? Four. David is a palliative care physician at the Theta Clark Medical Center and a community associate of the medical humanities program at the Medical College of Wisconsin. David has an interest in the medical care of the underserved and part of his medical training occurred in Liberia at the Elwa Hospital. He completed a sabbatical during training at Tuber City Hospital on the Western Navajo Reservation in Arizona. David's clinical interest is in the long-term management of diabetes and hypertension and in teaching ambulatory medicine and clinical ethics. Among David's many books I'll just mention a few. He and John Lapuma wrote a book in 1994 called Ethics Consultation, A Practical Guide, which was a landmark book at its time. Another book that David is co-authored with Carl Jungkomin and with Art Dursi, I think art is in the audience there art, is called Practical Ethics for Medical Students, Interns and Residents, now in its third edition and I understand that a fourth edition is being planned. Another poetry casebook that David wrote is called House Calls, House Calls, Rounds and Healing. So it's a great pleasure of mine to bring David Sheedemire back to the center to speak about going home again. David. Well thanks so much Mark and thanks for giving me a chance as a young man all those years ago. You know people ask me if I ever play my accordion for dying patients and I say that would just be mean.  So I've just been waiting for someone to ask me and so far no one has. Actually I was asked once to play at the wedding of a dying man's son at our hospice and in the rehearsal just a few minutes before the service the minister asked if I could play here comes the bride and I don't know the last time that you've heard that song but I hadn't heard it since cartoons as a kid but this was my big chance so I said I'll do it and wouldn't you know the first part of that song is just made for the old button box. You just toggle a few buttons here and there. Really the chapel's really tiny and that's the only part I had to play that's the easy first part. Before you knew it the handsome groom and his bride were up front so no I don't usually play the accordion out loud at the hospice but on that day a family member of another patient in a nearby room said I heard that accordion. It reminded me of my uncle playing years ago and I said that's why I play it. It reminds me of home too. So yes in a way I'm always somehow playing the accordion for my patients. It reminds me to help them get back home to the shire. Here's another story an 80 year old farmer with 200 acres of barley is dying of COPD and CHF and renal failure and you know how they all circle around again and despite the morphine drip he's quite lucid.   I'll see you upstairs doc. He dies that night. There's another patient with lung cancer and he's been in terminal delirium and that's what we call it medically but it really is just kind of a middle space and three times he's called out to that middle space in front of him he said I'm ready I'm going but today when I see him he's yelling I changed my mind. His family's troubled by this apparent change of heart but I tell him it's okay it's it's natural. I'm reminded though of another patient who earnestly pulls on my sleeve asking me doc I'm dead now aren't I am I am I dead now I'm somehow reminded of the shared elements in all of these cases as different as they may seem the patient is really thinking doc give me the truth am I dying I'm close am I home yet you know home is a place of familiar sounds and sights and smells home is a place you wish for a place like Evelyn's kitchen in this Tom Waits song. Walked from Natchez to Hushbakina I built a fire by the side of the road I lived on nothing but dreams and train smoke somehow my watch and chain got lost I wish I was home in Evelyn's kitchen with old gif curled around my feet and I hope my pony I hope my pony I hope my pony knows the way back home you know some people just aren't willing to trust their ponies to know the way back home one of my patients is a meticulous highly organized successful woman who wants to prepare accordingly for the afterlife but she's dying with spiritual distress our chaplain visits her daily because she has so many questions and concerns about near-death experiences lights at the ends of tunnels her own faith traditions view of the afterlife but like me our chaplain can only listen like me he has no real answers to these questions like me he has seen too many people die the good and the bad with or without the peaceful look on their faces with or without their eyes open with or without religion with or without family members at their sides with or without and like me he can't answer the one question she's really asking us what do I do early in the morning on the day the next day after I die well that next day you know she'll be up working early in the morning and the first thing on the agenda is a good cup of coffee as thick and black as bilge water one of the many troubles with dying is that no one can tell you from personal experience what to bring what to leave behind no one can pack for you on this trip perhaps it's because home is not just a familiar place of peace and safety and contentment place like Avalon's kitchen it's also a place of longing it's a place where we've never been but we always want to go for me this place is is hard to describe without music I listen to my words but they fall far below I let my music take me where my heart wants to go I sat upon the setting sun I never wanted water once speaking of water it's another rainy night at the hospice I'm at the bedside of a man dying of prostate cancer he has that kind of hormone unresponsive prostate cancer that just riddled with metastases even his skull is riddled with the tumor his son is a burly bearded Harley type and he tells me he went out to the crossroads at the cemetery the night before he went and stood over his mother's grave and he said mom time come and get dad come and get him he thinks his dad's taking too long to die he wants him to have more medicine but I'm like the old bar tender down at the crossroads bar I know the man's had enough to drink already he has several of the physical signs of dying he's got no pulse although I can hear his heartbeat with my stethoscope he has no urine output remarkably although he's moving his jaw while breathing and ordinarily should be gurgling and gasping for breath he's breathing quite slowly and peacefully that's because I've given him the equivalent of a couple that drinks for the road so I tell the son he's already on his way he's going now to be with your mom just stay with him no need to speed this up I think to myself he's okay he's going home tonight when a man loves a woman he'd sleep out in the rain if she says that's the way it ought to be now in terms of taking things with you when you die you could really do worse than my uncle Jarvie like me he played the harmonica in the accordion and when he died we put a harmonica in his coffin I do think this is the proper burial practice for harmonica and accordion players and I think it could even apply to bagpipers you know if you're Scottish and you die outside of Scotland after your underground the sprites come and they transport you through the secret passages right back home to Scotland so that's how in this old song the dead man's able to get back home again his living companion takes the high road but he takes that low underground road Bayon Bonnie banks and Bayon Bonnie breads where the sun shines bright unlocked they are me and my true love spent many happy days on the bunny bunny banks you know that is a little bit like a bagpipe isn't it I mean wouldn't it be a better world if we put all the harmonicas and the accordions and the bagpipes right in the coffins and the urns of those who played them in this life it would take them completely out of circulation it's really quite risky allowing them to go to a state sales or antique shops someone might restore them did you realize that the fragile reeds inside here are only held on by bees wax they are just waiting to go out of tune I'd say don't let sick accordions even make it to the box but all I'd say make them DNR do not repair aren't but that's not my worry that's a problem for the next generation and speaking of the next generation let's get back to the things that we leave behind and the things that we carry we leave memoirs and memories we leave songs we leave home and family and most of all we leave behind the next generations to do as they will what do we take with us well I'm not telling you what to pack but I know the things that I'm gonna carry I'm with my uncle Jarvie I'm gonna take my harmonica I'm gonna take my accordion you know these bellows are just made out of cardboard the casings on both sides which hold the reeds are just thin wood the reeds are miller millimeters thick strips of metal buttons are just plastic the whole thing should cremate nicely I mean who among us is to say that they're not button boxes there when I go home again and I'll be sitting around the kitchen table playing in the accordion while the family talks and although they're too kind to say anything I can tell that I'm bothering them in a way that only harmonicas and accordions and bagpipes can bother people even people who love you so I'll go to the back bedroom and only my old beagle Shiloh will go with me there curled up in his bed with his feet under his chin and his eyes half open just waiting for me to play the next song just like home thank you it's time for questions time for questions about accordions or harmonicas or going going home again and while we're waiting for those don't forget that tonight guitar man John Lantos will be there leading a sing along along with our lead singer Mark the legend seaguller singing I shall be released by Bob Dylan so any any questions at all I this one is about almost a hundred years old and this is about 70 they can be repaired yes that better hey so my name is Una Bernhardt I'm a master student at the Harris School here there's been a lot of research recently about music at the end of life working for Alzheimer's patients and patients with other severe cognitive disabilities at the end of life how has your experience had have you had any experience with that and could you share a little bit yeah well I don't remember the old movie the doctor with William Hertz the key thing is to play the music the patient one so I mean that is no small point the memory should be the patients John whom is it gonna give a talk on comfort food and and we're music is like comfort you know those songs that you knew when you were 15 are kind of imprinted on you so it so I think people I always encourage people to if someone has their made music and during their life sometimes they even have their own CD they at least bring the CD that the patients made so he can hear she can hear their own music and it's amazing sometimes I come in and say mom was a great panel player she even played you know for the choir or something and I go well does she have any tapes of her music and they go yeah we have him somewhere so so let's bring him in very individual what do you think do you think we should be playing music at the bedside more I know that it worked for my family so yeah from time to time I think it can work I think it can work too we don't want to crowd them I wasn't kidding about you know I don't walk in with the accordion and say how would you like to hear when the moon hits your eye like a big pizza pie you know some people like harp music in the little higher-class music then then and that they deserve that classical music if that's their thing everyone has different music you know but it's a great question I mean the question is what what what music to play it's like a prescription for the patient when we all get to nursing homes you'll want to be you'll hear Van Morrison in the dining room instead of good night Irene that was so beautiful thank you thank you I don't think I'll ever forget that you know one of what I thought you did so beautifully was bring dignity and actually a sense of possibility on the subject of dying which I think is just very very unique and one of the concerns I have there's just tremendous unfairness in the differences in the way people have the opportunity to die or the dignity with which people die across strata especially socioeconomic and I think racial lines in our country and I'm just interested in your thoughts on that it's a great question and I appreciated your work in the community it well I mean I don't know my thoughts on that yeah you know I don't that's a great question I mean everybody dies kind of one at a time I do know there's people dying now that have never died before but to dignify there's such a great question it's so hard because I think that dying services should be on your list of they're on community list and and let me just say you know people that people without financial means surely are not without spiritual means so I don't know that we dying is no respect for the pocketbook how's that persons everyone goes so I think a lot of but I think it could be on the resource list how's that dying services hospice services we don't you know I take it that so it's a deeper question than just dying in pain I mean I think we're doing a pretty good job of not having people die in pain anymore physical pain but the spiritual pain is really tough question because our Chapman will say at our meetings will say well what's the what's the patient spirituality he'll say they go to such and such and then we'll say well have they been has such and such been there to visit and oh yeah they came one time so he's going like every day some of these some of these patients I mean she really wanted to know what to get ready she always gets ready for stuff so it's not enough to just say to her you're good you're good it'll be fine she really wanted to know so he was there every day so those those are kind of resources that again people without means are not without those resources either and those we may not be able to monitor those that's what I'm trying to say very good question well yes yeah absolutely thank you for that comment that so I think everyone heard that the musical voice of your loved one that's probably the best music you could hope that you'd have that when you go when you go home again so I'm it still says yellow so that's good right come on up let's gotta get this


As a result of the shooting in Allen, which resulted in the death of three officers, the surrounding community has rallied to raise money for the fallen heroes' families. Backing the blue, a benefit concert will be held July 29th through the 31st to raise additional funds for the Floyd County Community Foundation. It was originally an idea for me and my own band to play. We just wanted to find a way to help the families because, you know, these people paid the ultimate sacrifice for us and they're out, you know, protecting us every day. So it was just a little something we was going to do as my band and a couple other local artists. But then I put it on Facebook and we had such an outpouring of support and just different people wanting to come out and help us. So we ended up getting 18 bands to come in and they're coming in from West Virginia, Mississippi, Tennessee, everywhere. And they're all going to be playing for free. And they're wanting to donate 100% of their tips. We're donating all the donations we get. We're doing raffles. We got ZZ Top tickets, foreigner tickets, a little bit of everything. You know, there's something for everybody. It's all in our hands, this life of time that's given to us all. It is all in our hands, it is all in our hands. Experienced heart specialist and subspecialist collaborating for the benefit of your care. Up 10% national hospital rankings for patient safety in heart attack and heart failure treatment. The technology is skilled to perform extraordinary complex, minimally invasive cardiac, electrophysiology, interventional and structural heart surgeries. This is a heart and vascular institute at Pikeville Medical Center. It is all in our hands, it is all in our hands. When it comes to your heart, place your care in our hands. It is all in our hands, it is all in our hands. The concert will be held at Music Paradise in Prestonsburg, Kentucky and will feature over 15 bands playing a variety of genres. All of the participating performers are also collecting donations in their hometowns. So not only are we going to be taking up donations here in our own community as one community coming together but everywhere else is bringing in support and love and we're not going to turn nobody away. Everybody that wants to come out, we may have 200, we may have 2,000. It's just showing our support, our love for our law enforcement and these people who have paid the ultimate sacrifice, just a small part that we can do. You know what I mean? It's just one of those things that, you know, this is our part as citizens to help out. So we just hope everybody comes out, has a good time, enjoys the music, the food, when you raffle at them. I mean, but just come out and show your support and show them that, you know, they have people that care for them, you know. The benefit is asking for a $5 a day donation to attend and concessions will be available all day. For our full schedule of events, go to Crossover on Facebook. For Mountain Top News, I'm Brianna Robinson.


Dear participants, good afternoon to all of you and a very welcome from the National Institute of Electronics and Information Technology of the Srinagar Government of India. As it is reflected on the board that my topic is introduction to research which next slide. My presentation is divided into several parts as it is clearly reflected from the board what research is, why to undertake research and what are the divergent opinions on the research, characteristics of research, types of research, knowledge, the fountain of research and as well as there is summary. What research is? There are number of definitions on the research and I have quoted one among them. Research is an endeavor to discover, develop and verify knowledge. So far as the first aspect of the definition is considered, research is an attempt to discover knowledge. Discovery of knowledge is one of the important issue in the research process. What discovery means? Simply, discovery consists of seeing what everybody is seeing but thinking what everybody has not thought. In order to explain it in a broad perspective, let me quote Newton, everyone knows that before Newton thousands of people have seen for calling Apple on earth but it was Newton who gave the patient thought that why it happened because of his keen observation. So, discovery of knowledge, our research starts from the discovery of knowledge. Discovery of knowledge is the important and another aspect in the research is to develop knowledge. Yes, this is the central point in the research process because knowledge expires, knowledge lost its temporal validity, knowledge obsolete, knowledge becomes invalid and that is why we have to develop knowledge to make knowledge relevant to the contemporary era. I remember when I was introduced to the computer world, I was introduced to the DOS but DOS is gone. Now, you have now other operating systems. So, developing knowledge is the core in the research process and similarly you have the verification of knowledge. Very important aspect because we are living in the 21st century where knowledge expulsion has already taken place. We are bound to know which knowledge is correct, which knowledge is not correct. So, we have to keep all these aspects in mind because verification of knowledge will lead us towards the proper utilization of knowledge. Verification of knowledge lead us to the inquiry of separate and further I will hear, I want to quote a great point of the East Alamanca Iqbal and I will translate it for the audience. He says, Almi Ijad me jo ho sahibi Ijad karta hai har door me tawaf uska zamana. Iqbal says that when a person lives in his life, entire life is a research platform for him. If he do something, if he create something in the entire world, right still this world will be over. He will be remembered like Einstein. He has said he is equal to mc2 where everyone on this earth knows Einstein. So, research is a very intellectual process. It is not everybody's cup of tea. It is not a soft option. Research needs highly intellectual deep thinking. It needs broader perspective if you want to be a researcher. And research is a very dynamic process. It changes, it is objective from time to time, from situation to situation. The research objectives which you will set here will be different from those which you are setting from another country. So simply, research is that process which changes, which is always in a connoisseur context. But remember one thing, the slogan of researcher is never change. The slogan of researcher is the search for truth. From this presentation, it is clear that why we had to take this undertake research and we had to provide solutions, we had to create new knowledge. So, it is clearly reflected next month. Here, I have just divergent opinions on research because different people have different opinions. For a philosopher research may be a new idea, a new theory. But for a scientist, it is something different. It is an innovation discovery. Similarly, for intellectuals, it is a new generalization. And for students who are in the process of their PhD or who are busy with their dissertation, research may be their point to make their career. And especially in our initials in India, our initials have now become academic cap theories where our degrees, especially annual PhDs or degrees, are sold at handsome cost. Even to some professionals in the area of research. This research has become a source of livelihood. We are submitting a number of research projects not for the sake of knowledge, but for the sake to earn the money next month. Yeah, research over the years, it is with a question. When you doubt something, it becomes a problem. So, doubting or questioning on something, it becomes the beginning point for a research. All progress is born of research. One of the biggest future of the research is that it is a R&D concept. Now, we will come to the types of research. From the general point of view, research is of three types, fundamental research. It is a very tough research where you are creating entirely new knowledge, new theories. It is very easy to say, it is equal to MCS Care. But you can ask Einstein how much intellectual effort he may have put to develop is equal to MCS Care. This is an example of fundamental research. Next one, applied research. What our research is, we are doing in the entire world, much research goes in the field of applied research. When you have to find a solution to imitate problems which a person or a society or an organization is facing, next one. Yeah, action research, usually action research, what research which you are doing by involving your common sense, just in the first sessions are told that computer was having some problem. So, we can use our common sense in order to solve a number of problems. That research becomes a common sense research. Yeah, now the question is knowledge is the fountain of research. Yes, research process is revolving around the knowledge because knowledge is part of power. And power means control over a situation. Your knowledge revolves around, this research revolves around the knowledge. And knowledge is power. Those countries which have rich sources of knowledge, they are controlling the entire world. It is not because of this that we have a great population. So, you can control the situation only when you are having a knowledge. I will put a simple example. If you are going to operate an ATM machine and you know everything but you do not have the knowledge of PIN, you cannot control that machine because you are liking the knowledge. So, proper knowledge is very much necessary and creation, generation, discovery, all these are the goals of the knowledge. And it has been clearly reflected by the National Knowledge Commission that if India intends to be a developed country, then it has to develop. It is all knowledge resources. Yeah, how to research? We know it that, yeah, and we have to locate the research paper, we have to read the abstract and so on and so on. Yes, research is a highly academic activity. And other than an advanced, great activity, research is now considered as the highest level of education in any education system. And usually it starts from the master's level because you have a dissertation part in the master's and Amphil PhD is strictly the research. So, it acts as the highest level in any education system especially in India. It is because of research that we can keep our knowledge alive. Research is the backbone for sustaining in the global society in the contemporary era. And I believe that research is universal as well as global heritage because research can make human being sustainable in the contemporary era when he is having challenges and challenges 24 hours around his life. Thank you, sir. Over to sir.


This is Mike with the 21 report behind the scenes in Orlando, Florida for the 21 convention 2017 tenure anniversary I'm sitting alongside Johnny Soporno. Johnny, welcome to the show. Thank you so much It's been great having you here, and I'm looking forward to get into some questions with you But before we do that Johnny, I was wondering if you could give everyone a quick overview of your talk and why you chose to talk about it Okay, I got about 40 hours of non-repeating content that I've been sharing for the last decade or so online I wanted to put in some new stuff that alluded to some of that and gave some of the critical underpinnings But I wanted this to be something that people who'd already seen a lot of my stuff would be compelled to come and visit I wanted to add new value So I added a few things and I thought were particularly important and I also summarized an awful lot of different aspects of different things from my previous Exposays so an easy way to say it is I wanted to cover Firstly the notion of what successfulness is because as far as I can tell Successfulness is the most compellingly attractive characteristic anyone can have when a person Radiates Successfulness which they do effortlessly. They don't have to do anything. It just comes out from their pores People want to be around them people gather around them because it's nice to be in the company of someone who clearly loves themselves Clearly feels they're good enough Clearly likes Pardon me being alive Likes helping other people and empowering other people because for me thematically I have a mission statement Okay, my life. Okay, I exist to enjoy the rewards of my best efforts and So I put in my best efforts in everything I do and the rewards are incredible and I enjoy the hell out of them One of the rewards is every time I do something nice for another person who I feel is deserving Every time I do something nice for someone who I imagine will appreciate it I get to feel ten feet tall and when I walk around feeling ten feet tall Other people can sense my joy in my life and they want to be around me What could be a better circumstance than my investing energy? That would otherwise be wasted Time is the universal non replaceable non replenishing resource and if you don't use every bit of your time It disappears as though you had used it So if I've got time I look around for people I can help I check to see is there something I do to help If they say no, I accept that I recognize that's okay Let me know if you change your mind and I walk away feeling good about myself for at least Demonstrating to them. They're not alone There are in fact people who would be happy to help Not for the ego rush that they feel they could get not because they want to make the person They're helping feel diminished, but just because they have the time and the availability If they do wish my help, I'm happy to do it. I don't need any reward from them Just knowing that they'd like it means we have a contract of appreciation I'll do what I can just help they'll appreciate by making the attempt. I Feel good about it. I walk away feeling like a king Everyone responds to me positively Everybody wins Exactly. Yeah, so one thing men come to you looking for help with this is their success with women What's the biggest Mistake you see most men make? Oh? Wow, that would be a challenging one Why don't I start with a couple of the fundamental mind frames a couple of fundamental ways that men? Absolutely self-solid Any man who thinks that there's a battle of the sexes Starts out from a losing position Okay, we would not exist as a species if the males and the females weren't meant to get together Okay, before we had language before we had status before we had possessions No one had to be show off in order to get laid The women would decide that they wanted to be fertilized now. They'd look around for a guy who's prepared to come over and do the job And then after he was done Had done his little rutting passed out. They'd go off and find the next guy to do the job Now we've built up this huge thing where the idea that a woman would Possibly ever have sex with more than one person is an atrocious idea. Oh, how awful instead of recognizing that That's what women evolved to do.   So Johnny, what is your take or your philosophy on? Monogamy I Looked up monogamy in my family dictionary and the closest I think I could find was some kind of wood It was very expensive But apparently if laid properly at the outset you could walk all over it for the rest of your life I've basically realized that was true for most partners in most relationships If they were laid properly at the outset their partner could walk all over them for the rest of their lives I look at monogamy as an extremely unhealthy paradigm But I don't believe that everyone is cut out to or interested in having lots of partners But monogamy as usually described Involves a contract that starts out with this premise. I Will grant myself to you in exchange for which you will grant yourself to me Exclusively with no competition How long do you imagine it's supposed to take when two people have both been granted to each other Before one or the other of them begins to feel taken for granted since after all that's exactly what's going on So you have this problem the warning is right there on the label When you grant yourself to someone else It's basically saying okay, baby. What's your favorite food lasagna? I think the best lasagna you've ever had and I'm gonna make it for you for breakfast lunch Anytime you want you have as much lasagna as you want all it all it requires is you never ever ever Have anything else? How many weeks of lasagna do you think you could have before either one of the following becomes true first one? You begin to hate or resent lasagna or you just have no interest in it Or you start to look at lasagna no matter how well it's made or no matter how much extra effort I put into making it for you and it still just becomes food Fuel How long is it gonna be before pizza starts sounding incredible, right Kentucky fried chicken? I'm all over that action So to try and throttle a person down and keep them from having the experiences they like Sounds like a pretty sure recipe for building up resentment hostility and disgust My take on it is a good relationship a mature relationship where people love one another Each one understands that the joy and happiness of the other is intrinsic to their own necessary In my own primary relationship, I've been with Violet now for 13 years She's my very best friend and my most favorite lover and she's incredible Brilliant funny sexiest could be I Still check her out every time she walks past me in the room because she's gorgeous I'm not just saying that anyone wants to find out can find her She's still online as a professional webcam model in the erotic costume Play I mean that you know that anime cosplay and she's stunning and brilliant and charming and men love her And so the women she's got a huge fan base interesting thing about her is she wants me to feel vibrant and alive and Sexy and powerful when we first hooked up I was vibrant and alive and sexy and powerful and if I left the house to go out and find someone to go to bed with Within a couple of hours I would be deeply into someone's flesh and she would know that this was true And it would delight her that I could do that Here we are 13 years later and she knows that if I go out the odds are very good I'm gonna be with somebody else, but I also know exactly where home is I know exactly why I'm going home. She encourages me to have all the fun I can or wants to hear about it. So we're a team sharing and encouraging one another all the time Whether we're together or not if she says I'm gonna go out with a bunch of girls in my knitting circle We're gonna go see this new chick flick. I say knock yourself out, babe. Have a great time Really happy you're doing this anything to help. Let me know.  Really glad you're doing this. This turns you on knock yourself out Let me know if I can pick you up.  Mm-hmm They all start with this premise That jealousy is valuable that jealousy is good or right or reasonable Jealousy isn't even a natural emotion. It's a compound emotion The primary emotion of jealousy is fear fear of loss And it's compounded by rage rage at having to feel that fear So jealousy is your ego screaming at you that if you gave your beloved the right to choose She wouldn't choose you Now think about that for a second. If your beloved wouldn't choose you Why in the world did you want to lash her to you? Wouldn't it be the worst thing in the world to have her miserable because if you need her to be happy in order to feel good You won't feel good either So instead I look at from the exact opposite position Baby do whatever it takes for you to feel vibrant and alive and recognize that even if you found someone who was amazing In order for him to be as amazing as me He would also not have to have a problem with my continuing to exist in your life Yeah, totally so Johnny this was your first time speaking at the 21 convention It's you've spoke to a lot of different events How does this event compared to previous events? It's actually is very well organized There have been a bunch of times when people said why don't you speak of the 21 convention going all the way back to when it was the under It wasn't because of it's being in Florida or whatever It didn't seem to be a fit at the time and I I've never been a pickup person. It's not what I'm about. I often say that Pickup is about customer acquisition And I'm much more about customer relationship management and maintenance. Okay I don't have any exes. I just have girlfriends in remission And more often than not they come out of remission when they break up with the new guy that they're seeing Or whatever it's times earlier than that Um, so I just didn't know that my message would have an audience here, but I was very delighted and impressed This has been a great show. The other speakers are terrific I was very happy to be here with a bunch of colleagues of mine that I know well and I've worked with many times sandpirions here Hypnotica Eric Fonsado is here Alan Roger Curry is here. I've been on the road with these guys internationally many times It's a it's a joy to here as they up their game and bring the news Yeah, and uh, you know each one of us is here with the same objective. We want to we want to Spread the word knowing that eventually that word for the people to listen to us will become legs So before we kind of wrap this whole thing up Johnny if people want to find out more about you more about your work More about your workshops and seminars. Where's the best place they can go? Well, I try and keep a very low profile Actually the easiest thing to do is if you just look up Johnny Soporno on google I'm the only one but there are about 150,000 pages You could also go to Successfulness.com which is a trademark that we own internationally We put on some really excellent workshops ourselves every january as I say alan or certainly zan and brent and sometimes steve pickis or steve pavelina bravo and gareth jones and Sometimes sasha and other very considerable Participants in the community come out and give their very best and hang out for a week and and help Really reframe people's minds till they can become fundamentally self accepting And fundamentally happy with going forward not fighting against their ego But eventually getting to the point where their ego is their cheering section. Come on. What are you waiting for? From the inside of your head. It's really pretty great when you reach that point and It's such a joy to offer these events And everybody comes back year after year in fact all of the previous attendees are invited to come back Year after year. So it just gets to be a bigger and bigger thing That takes place every january We also do by monthly weekend long events and then of course we specialize direct coaching for couples and for individuals Throughout the rest of the year usually at our location in las vegas Brilliant. So with that you can see johnny's talk first on 21 University.com or by clicking the link underneath this video johnny Once again, thank you so much for being here. It's been a very great pleasure. I'm glad So this is mike with johnny saporno signing off for the 21 report. Thank you


Hey guys, welcome back to my YouTube channel. This is Daniel Rossell here. I posted this thread in the TP-Link forums a while back about a problem I was experiencing was the ER605 load balancing writer, and I've been surprised to see that my video about the TP-Link ER605 setting up load balancing, setting up failover from a primary primary one to a cellular backup has actually become the most viewed video on this YouTube channel with something like 15,000 views. So it's really good to know that other people are interested in failover internet. In any event, I posted this thing here about the problem I was experiencing at first. I set up everything and it was working, but what was happening was that it was failing over to the backup connection, even when the primary was working. So this is a title I gave this thread. TP-Link load balancer failing over onto backup connection, even when the primary is intact. So I showed the way I'd set up the backup rule and we had it back and forth about this with various people. TP-Link promising solutions didn't really actually work. And finally, I got a reply from Scott Canyon seven hours ago. And this is actually what I have set up and this is what fixed it. But the thing is I couldn't remember what finally fixed it because it took so I spent so much time upgrading the firmware and ticking boxes and unticking boxes. So I really, really appreciate this comment from Scott. This is the beauty of open source when people share what they know freely. We all benefit. Scott says, Scott mentions me and he says, I had the same problem of failover onto backup. That is I didn't want load balancing, right? So we're not actually when we're looking for a simple failover, we don't actually want load, we're not actually looking for load balancing or trying to use load balancing, but I only wanted to link backup in case the primary one failed. Here is how to make that work. Under load balancing, basic settings, general, you must select enable load balancing.  So Scott says this is poorly named. Indeed it is. It should really be called enabled load balancing and or link backup feature. So that is indeed terrible UI nomenclature on the part of TP-Link. That button that you need to take isn't just about load balancing. It's also necessary to take that for the link backup feature. So the name change Scott suggests it's a good one in my opinion. Then he says under load balancing, basic settings on uncheck the boxes. So those are going to be ticked by default and under load balancing link backup created rule as you normally would. So let me let me take you guys into my ER605 config here. So load balancing is under transmission and there aren't that many settings to play around with. The general setting is enable load balancing. And if you look up the icon, it doesn't say that it's it's going to do backup. So it is definitely poorly named. So you want to take this and then under basic settings, you want to de-tick or un-tick application based load balancing and bandwidth based balance routing on ports. And then you want to set up your link backup. The one I've gone for it's just been just been timed out, unfortunately, but it goes. It's a simple backup rule that says if one down, if one one is down, go on to one to and I've just checked this out. And this is indeed the way to get it to work. So thank you so much, Scott. I appreciate you sharing this on the TP-Link forum. And if you're looking to get failover working on your ER TP-Link ER605 load balancing writer, these are the steps.
