Well that was quite a performance by Stevenson's Mustangs tonight. 11-7 was the win over Rowan. They were shorthanded tonight joining us now is head coach Kathy Rayleigh and coach. We talked about this before the game and you were a little concerned because you were shorthanded.  What a team effort from top to bottom when we were talking about who to bring up here to do the post game interview as individual players. We couldn't decide the coach. We sat outside as coaches for like five minutes trying to think who can you bring up when everyone had such an amazing performance and played their hearts out and played so tough and so physical and really matched all the things that we as a staff were worried or whether or not we could handle and not only do we handle it we outperformed in that environment. So let's take us through it because you know you guys started 0-3. You're 6-1 since 6 out of 7. What's happening with this team right now? Well there's a couple things I think that we first really put our attention on goal scoring and so we started to score more and more goals. So what that does is then in practice your defense naturally gets a whole lot better because they're having to practice every day against a much more goal seeking team. I think the biggest thing though is we now have a situation where we have a goalie we can trust. It's so much easier to play a fluid defense and an aggressive defense when you know that your goalie is going to make the saves if you deliver an out-of-angle shot or an under pressure shot and boy I thought you know Regan made the saves that she was supposed to make today. You know the ones that went in you know they were they should go in. They're your good shooting team and we didn't have the right pressure on or didn't have the right angle where we were on the shooter herself so but that is just such an important part of it. I was so happy that we outshot them as many as we did. I thought that was just so good and one of our goals was to have a better third quarter and we have a third quarter. That's the difference in the game right there. What did you say at the half? What was the difference in the third? Not much so obviously I'm not allowed to say much anymore. I wanted two things to happen. I went into today and I think we talked about this I went into today's game that I was not going to overwhelm with information at halftime because I thought that might have been one of the problems with our third quarters so I came in with two pieces of information handed the coaches three things each to talk about and I think that was helpful. I think you know hearing from those the three different voices instead of just mine in a dominating way was probably a calming effect on them and I gave them a lot of time to pump each other up which I think might be the real part of that. We'll just do it for each other it doesn't have to be you know it's not about the X's and O's every minute of every game it's often about heart and grit and tenacity and the X's and O's are part of it but it's not the whole picture. So a couple of notes from the game Sophia Murray had a great game as usual four goals but both ends of the field but I noticed though that Ava Traco may have taken like all the draws tonight I'm not a hundred percent sure was that because you were a little shorthanded coming to the game or what was there were some other issues that we were that we were having and it was just the right decision for today yeah it was the right decision for today and and it's not always going to be that way and and you know we have a lot of people that can take the draws but we we this is what we went with today and you know got us to win so we're happy with it. So your goalkeeper Regan Torber we're going to talk to her in a moment as well as Kari Aruso but the but the back line in front of Regan Torber today I know you were a little concerned but they came up big time today. So I think we've zeroed in on a couple defenses that really work well for us so what I think we were able to do today was just take Rowan out of a flow. They were taking third you know we had I don't know how many times that we were able to get a possession clock violation on them because we they were taking 30 35 seconds 40 seconds to figure out what on earth defense are they playing so that they could make their play calling. So they'd come down with a man offense but we weren't in a man so they would by the time they figured it out they were out of time to execute their man offense.  They delivered tonight no question and Mary Washington the other night nine goals as well. We're going to let you go congratulations on the win Saturday we'll be back Eastern to start a match play. And senior day. And senior day.


Live from Las Vegas, it's theCUBE, covering UiPath Forward America's 2019. Brought to you by UiPath. We're back, you're watching theCUBE, the leader in live tech coverage. We go out to the events. This has been a great event, UiPath Forward 3, the third North American event. And this is day two, we're just wrapping up. Brandon Nott is here as the Senior Vice President with UiPath, and Kedara Danny, who's the Vice President of Global Accounts at UiPath. So, you guys got a story. Yeah, yeah, yeah, we do. Brandon, what's the story? I mean, you guys, one was a customer, and... That's right, first customer. That is true, first customer. So, three years ago, something like that, when UiPath, we just started our global expansion. We'd got our seed funding round in 2015. We started expanding and building our global sales team, 2016. I joined in the UK, responsible globally for the banking financial services industry. And one fine day, I get a communication and email from a prospective customer that, hey, I want to talk to you about your platform. And it was Brandon over here. Brandon, do you want to tell them how you found out about UiPath? Yeah, you bet. I was interviewing a couple partners and looking at the different platforms, and found that UiPath really had what I was looking for, which is the openness of the platform, the ability to do training online and start my journey, kind of on my terms. And so when I reached out to Qatar, it was very much, how can you help me get started? I've already made the business case internally. I'm ready to go. What year was this? 2016. And it's interesting, Daniel Dinez last night of his keynote said, you know, we really appreciate you guys who joined us in 2016, because the product didn't have all the features that we wanted.  That's right. But I was saying earlier on theCUBE, the right move that UiPath made is you bet on simplicity. And you said, okay, let's get to market fast. Yeah. And you said, on your terms, what do you mean by that? So one of the things that I love about UiPath is early on there was a principle of openness. Let people download the software. Don't be afraid. Don't tease people and then say, come to our site and we'll give you a call, right? They said, come to our site, download. Try it yourself. Here's, there's free training. And as UiPath has grown, that principle is still very much present. You can go online right now and download, take free courses online. So what I wanted as a customer at that time was the ability to see it for myself. I wanted to make it real before I've made the investment. That was our experience. When Bobby Patrick first started, UiPath, who were they? He goes, go to the website, download a copy of our software, start building, you know, automations. I'm like, huh? He goes, yeah, do it. And then go to automation anywhere, which by the way is the sponsor of ours. We love, we're an arms dealer. We love everybody.  So we tried, but we couldn't.  You know, we just want to play with it, you know. So, so that's what you mean by, that's right. Like on your terms. That's right. That's worked pretty well for you guys, hasn't it? It has. And you know, when we started off, right? Community has always been a pillar within UiPath's, you know, kind of strategy to make sure that RPA is available to everyone. We call it democratization of automation. And hence, you know, availability of the community edition, we go to the universities, students are able to download and use it for free. And now we've tied up with certain universities to expand the education system with getting, you know, when graduates pass out, they come out already knowing UiPath RPA. Yeah, we had the college of William and Mary on and Tom Clancy, they were talking about that. Now, I did my little review of the predictions in the morning, guys' predictions, he said that the students have come out of college are going to force RPA on their companies. Most college kids don't know what RPA is. I got, you know, I said, it's going to take a couple of cycles here, but then, so, okay. So, Brenda, why did you join UiPath?  I'm going to, instead of applying the technology to make my existing company better, I'm going to. So I ran operations for a mortgage company and we had already automated everything that we could using the classic tools. And we were winning awards and it was, you know, people were looking at the work that we were doing and they were impressed, but I still couldn't get past a certain point in my automations. So bringing in UiPath allowed me to continue that journey, to keep automating. And after a while, the more that I was working with UiPath, we were, I was a guest of them at conferences, speaking with Guy Kirkwood and any number of folks, I looked at the culture of the company and thought, this is a place that I want to be. And I looked at the roadmap and where the product was going and what I was able to do with it as a customer and I thought I want to help other people do this. I want to help them on their journey get to this next level of automation that they're currently, they're being capped at. Yeah, well a lot of people hop on the bandwagon. So folks from AWS, you know, have joined. Gentlemen I know from Google, let's join. I mean, these are leading companies. Correct. So how are you guys spending your time these days? Respectfully.  So these are some of the largest global customers, big insurance companies, automobile industry, you know, Titans in that industry. And they've all been our customers now for the last two years and three years with a plan to kind of change the way they run their business, right? And RPA and UiPath, basically the automation platform that we have now with our new release come out as well is giving these customers an end-to-end transformation engine. So it is our responsibility now to make them, you know, more knowledgeable on how to apply that technology and get them successful with their plans for transformation and automation of their business processes. Right, and how are you spending your time, bro? I'm in product and my focus is attended automation. So classically, people are implementing unattended automation. This was the first big wave of RPA. Was really robots just working on a server somewhere, you don't interact with them, they just do their thing 24 hours a day. Now there's a huge push into attended automation which is having a robot on your computer and the two of you working together, collaborating in real time throughout your day. So we're looking to save time, to take out the wasteful, small processes that nobody wants to do, as well as create entirely new opportunities for value based on what the two of you can do together. How are you guys thinking about the way in which a user, a worker interacts with that bot and that automation? I think it's more like a dance and less like a task manager, right? So you might think in classic automation, click a button, go do this thing. Click a button, go do that thing. The automation is happening when you want it to. The way that our platform is written, the robot can listen to what you're doing. It can monitor for when you click on a specific button or for when you move files to a folder. So think about it less like a conscious effort to guide the robot and more as a collaborative effort where the robot is seeing what you're doing and taking action to help you and do things on your behalf and then letting you know when they're done. So the paradigm is changing for work and when you have a robot on your computer it's going to open up a new way of doing your daily activities. And the enabler there is what? Machine learning, machine intelligence. It's a combination of things. So think about machine learning and AI as just one tool that that robot has to use. Both CR as well. You know, we did a demo earlier this week where we took receipts, moved them to a folder. The robot sees that you've moved receipts into a folder, can bounce it off an endpoint and break apart those receipts using OCR, load that all into Excel and help you with your expense report. So think about things like this. Things you need to do, you do what you would normally do, put receipts in a folder and the robot takes care of the rest. What things can humans do that machines can't? Yeah, the ability to make on the fly judgment for complex cognitive tasks is very, very hard to replicate in AI right now because typically models are built on a set of specific information. We build our receipt and our invoice model off a ton of receipts and invoices. Therefore, the robot can make quick work of those receipts way faster than we can. But present an unstructured problem or an open-ended problem and an AI model might really struggle whereas a human can instantly make a judgment on that. So we want computers to do that, those compiled activities with the AI models that make sense for what they're doing and we want humans to be thinking at higher levels, at creative levels, higher cognitive and decision-making levels. So this is, as Daniel and others had mentioned, elevating the humanity when you think about it. But you definitely see some of your customers certainly talking about this as robots taking action, systems of agency, some people call it, on behalf of the human. And having to essentially make certain decisions but you're saying those decisions are well understood and safe essentially. Absolutely, when you deploy a robot, you don't just kind of hope for the best, right? You have a very specific use case and you've coded the robot for that use case. I love it when people say our compliance team is worried about the robot's going wild or we can have it go on the systems. But it can't do anything that you haven't consciously told it to do, haven't written it to do. So it turns out it's actually even more compliant because it can throw off logs and a paper trail as complex as you want it. So if I were a compliance officer, I would say get robots in immediately because I want more visibility into what's being done.  So our customers, as Brandon was saying earlier, customers started with this unattended robots first because everyone was trying to get efficiency in their back office. Quick ROI. Quick ROI. And that is actually the core foundation for what comes next, which is the attendant automation, the robot for every person vision that we have for the entire global customer community of ours. I mean, the number of use cases where a human agent works with a robot now with having a robot on every desktop.  You don't need to engage with multiple systems as a human agent. You can get the robot to go ahead and do that for you. And as Brandon was saying, you have much better control with the robot doing it than a human being who could potentially cause certain security or compliance related issues because a human agent could go easily off track, do something different whereas the robot has a certain set of parameters within which they work. All right guys, we got a wrap, but so I'm going to ask each of you, give us the bumper sticker on UI path forward three. When the trucks are pulling away from the Bellagio, what's the bumper sticker say, Brandon? Try and keep up.  Yeah, go bigger or go home. This kind of seems to be the theme here. Well guys, thanks very much for coming on us. Great, congratulations on all the success. You guys got a lot of work to do still. Yeah, sure. For sure and best of luck. Thank you very much. Very welcome and thank you for watching everybody. This is a wrap from UI path forward. You watching theCUBE, go to siliconangle.com. Check out all the news. We got a bunch of in-depth coverage of this show, RPA in general, we have five shows this week. So check that out and of course go to thecube.net to see what will be next week.

Hey guys welcome to today's podcast. I really appreciate these precious gifts of your time and attention. Thank you for spending some of it in my direction, hanging out with me for a few minutes today. Today I want to speak to you guys about an idea that I first spoke about many years ago and I framed in this title, my greatest gift to you is a healthy me. My greatest gift to you is a healthy me or your greatest gift to me is a healthy you and this idea is really coming out of this awareness I've grown into especially as I've aged and especially as I've spent many many years in investing in and bringing value to other people that ultimately the best version of me is the greatest contribution I can make to other people in my world to the world. I think I spent years of my life either either consciously or subconsciously expecting other people to change for me thinking I need to help you to fix what's wrong in your life thinking I need to keep pointing out to you where you need to change you need to grow you need to improve because until I can fix you you really know good to me. So rather than working on me I used to think that I need to work on everybody else so with my teaching my ideas it would always be this is what you should be doing this is what you should be working on rather than spending that time and energy on me and working on me because I didn't realize that actually the best relationships I had in my life the best moments of team building and working in and leading teams the most productive parts of my life when I was in the best shape of my life and rather than let that be a random thing that I would experience seasonally and not figure out why it was like that I began to double down many years ago on investing in me on developing me on becoming the best version of me I could be realizing that that automatically became became the best gift I could give to people in my own life to my family to my friends to those that I work with and to the wider world that I have a voice to that my greatest gift to you is a healthy me if that's true if you believe that's true today then it means that immediately we can let go of the effort we spend on fixing everything else and everything about everybody else and working on you now want to say a healthy me or a healthy you I don't just mean physically I spend a lot of time as some of you may know teaching on aging well I'm now 63 and aging well has been an intentional passion of mine for at least 25 years as I nudged into my late 30s early 40s where the free ride of youth was over I became intentional about aging well about being a healthy me and of course going to the gym and doing weights and cardio is easy but there is far more to being a healthy you or a healthy me than that so in aging well the online video course I've done on aging well I speak for hours about aging well of course physically but also mentally and emotionally and relationally and generationally and chemically and all the rest of it so many so many different last aging well that that I was certain I know what about aware of in my earlier years but now we are living in a time when we have so much awareness about the multiple layers to aging well to be in a healthy version of you that I think this merits a reteaching this merits me giving new attention to it here at the start of this new year because the greatest gift you can give to people in your world this year is working on being a healthy vibrant growing developing flourishing version of you you may never get thanked or celebrated for the work you put in people may never recognize or appreciate actually how much effort you put in to be in a healthy you so you've got to realize I'm not doing it for that reason it's nice to be complimented or thanked for work you have put in to become a better version of you but people who should perhaps notice it often don't people who should thank you for it and celebrate it often don't nor do we often do it to others who are putting in huge effort to being the best version of them they can be so if you're not being thanked or celebrated for it keep going don't stop because ultimately being the best version of you you can be is ultimately about and for you other people benefiting from it is secondary but you benefiting from that investment in your own internal and external health is ultimately the prize that you're after I've always been fascinated by the thing that Jesus said about this when he said love your neighbor as yourself and I think what he's saying is that it is impossible to love someone else in a way or to a degree that you don't love yourself first that to invest in you to grow you to be intentional about your own flourishing and thriving is essential and must come before passing that on to someone else that we cannot love someone else with a love we don't have for ourselves that we can't invest in someone if we're not investing in ourselves that we can't care or be concerned about how someone else is doing in life if we lack that concern for ourselves you can't you can't allow people to make withdrawals from the bank of your life if your life is lacking in deposits from you that you constantly find yourself running on empty and battling burnout and then to think that from that low place that we get to in life and many of us live on permanently we have anything of value to give to the human race and I think that's why Jesus made the connection between loving others and loving yourself I don't think we've still figured out what he said I think for many of us we have not seen that connection that he made that we're going to step into another year of trying to love our families our loved ones our spouse our partner our children those we do life with and we find ourselves exhausted with the basics of that and not realizing that what will change that dynamic isn't trying harder to love people or trying harder to love more people or trying harder to love people different to you that you don't naturally love but the key is working internally on self-love that your greatest gift to those that you want to love this year is investing in self-love self-care self-development self-thriving and flourishing and nurturing that if we will double down this year on investing in yourself in growing intentionally by reading listening watching widely by committing again to be curious to be fascinated to be interested by committing again to feeding your soul to feeding your mind to feeding your body to feeding your emotions to feeding yourself in every way that you can this year that that commitment to self-care and self-compassion and self-empathy will be your greatest gift to those that do life with you this year in whatever way that they do that is I think what I want to spend time talking to you about at the outset of this year because no one talks to us about that and I think in the year we've had 2020 in the pandemic year we've all just come through I think we have learned to our cost how little we invested in ourselves when the pandemic struck and we had to spend so much time on our own without the usual stimulus of friends and family even been forbidden to express affection and physically hugging someone or touching someone I think the isolation that we were forced into I think bumped us into how empty our bank accounts were of personal investment and I've certainly doubled down in the past year in 2020 on that in myself and then encouraging others to do that about themselves so as we step into a new year I want to remind you that it is a superpower that is hugely neglected that we have as humans to grow all of your life and never stop no other species on the planet has been enabled by our creator to grow all of your life flourish all of your life to become a bigger better version of you all of your life no other species on the planet has that god-given gift and ability and yet most of us don't use it so I want to encourage you to commit to that afresh at the outset of this year to commit to being the best version of you the healthiest version of you you can possibly be because that will become your greatest gift to me whoever me is in your life it is your greatest gift to them to become a healthy vibrant flourishing happy you all right well I hope those thoughts have helped you and added value to the beginning of your journey this year let's keep in touch hey if you've appreciated this podcast then I don't know tag me in about your favorite quote or thought or one liner or idea leave a comment tag me in please by all means leave a review on the podcast we'd love to hear from you about what you're feeling and thinking experiencing through the podcast subscribe if you don't already again thank you for your presence here thank you for your company for a few minutes I wish you well in all that's coming up for you in this brand new year of opportunity in 2021 it's going to be an outstanding year because we've decided it will your greatest gift to me is a healthy you my greatest gift to you is a healthy me love you guys speak to you later thank you


Move in, beep, beep, beep, beep, beep, beep, move out. And that's what you use the sensor for. Quickly before I start this video, did you guys know that 80% of my viewers right now are not subscribed to my channel? 80% of the people who watch my videos out of the 1,200 subs that I have are not subscribed to this channel. Now imagine if you guys were, how many subs we'd have. A recurring theme in most of my videos has been that we're going over sensors, they don't actually touch things, but they just sense for things. Like we've had the sensor where it was two poles and when you put something in the middle, like a piece of plastic or a piece of metal, it's something that triggered because the laser in between wasn't going anymore. Take that, stick it in the middle, keep an eye on the values. They just went up like crazy. Look at that, 940, 930, all the way up there. Then we went over proximity sensors like an IR sensor, which checks for body heat. So it actually sees the heat in my body, the heat radiation, and when it moves from one side to another, it triggered that outdoor light that we had.  Then we went over ultrasonic sensors that use the same technology that the bats have. They shoot these super high-frequency sounds. It bounces off of an object, regardless of if it's a human or not, or a live or not, reflects back, and then based off of that, we can figure out the distance of how long the sound was traveling in the air. Wait for it, it's gonna come into the shot. Look at that. If I put my phone out of the way, right away it goes to the wall instantly. Well, here's another addition to those types of videos. This is an object avoidance sensor. It uses very similar tech to the sensor where we had two poles that were sending an IR sensor between them, and when something blocked it, it freaked out and said, hey, something's in front of me. Very similar to that, except instead of putting it between two poles, it's shooting it out and expecting it to receive back. So if I just start shooting it out like this, nothing would happen. But if there was a wall here, let's say, and I'm backing up my car and this is all my car, it would start shooting the IR light onto my hand, and then depending on how sensitive I set the sensor to be, it would start picking it up as it's reflecting off my hand into the receiver over there. So this is the emitter and this is the receiver. IR is not something we can actually see with our eyes, but sometimes we could pick it up on camera. On the sensor, you have four pins, ground, power, out, and then EN. EN stands for enabling pin. So if you wanted to trigger this on and off and not have it always on, you would use the fourth pin, but we're not going to, we're just gonna use the first three. Three pins means we need three cables. I'm gonna be using a breadboard as always, just because it holds the sensor for me. While I explain to you guys, I'm just gonna plug that in anywhere and take three different cables. One is going to be for the ground, so that's the first pin from the left, second one for the power, which is right next to that, and the last one, which is going to be the output signal. Nice thing about these sensors is it's all built in onto the sensor. We just receive a yes or no, some things in front of me, some things not. So we don't actually have to use libraries and write a bunch of code like we do for a lot of the sensors that we do in these videos. So take your Arduino, plug it into your computer, we're gonna be putting blue into a ground port, red into the five volt port, which is right next to our Arduino Uno, and then yellow, we'll be putting into port number two on the digital side. If you don't know the difference between analog and digital pins, analog pins are very one or zero. They're called high or they're called low. High being a lot of power is going through, low being, this is a low amount of power. So when there's a high amount of power, that's gonna be telling us that this is sensing something and it's passing the power out through the yellow instead of through the blue. So we're putting in power through red, it's going out through blue, in through red, in through out through blue. And then at one point when it actually detects something, it's going to send that signal to the yellow cable, which is going to light up this red LED and let us know, hey, something's be detected. As always, open up your Arduino editor, make sure when you go to tools, board, you're on the right board, port, you're on the right port and you should be ready to go. This is pretty simple. We're just going to do a couple of things. First thing is we're going to declare our LED, which I've plugged it on ready into the board. It's on port 13. We're going to have an input value, which is going to be holding our input pin. And then we're going to have a variable where we hold the word high or the word low. And depending on that, we're gonna know if there's an object or not in front of us. In the setup, you're gonna want to activate the two pins that we plugged into. So pin mode, and then we have LED, since we're gonna be powering the LED and it's not actually, it's not inputting anything, it's going to be outputting power. Just going to take that, copy paste it one more time. And then we're going to do the same thing for input. Now, oh, and then we're gonna have to activate our console, so just do serial that begin and put it on this band 9600. After you've done that, we're going to write the object variable and in here, we're gonna store the digital read from our sensor. So if it's a technique high or low, it's going to store it in here. We're gonna put the input pin in there because that's the pin we're using. And then we have to make a little if statement. We're going to be telling it, if object equals low, which means there is something in front of it. And then we're going to go and just activate our LED. Now it's gonna keep looping and it's gonna keep telling us, okay, something is in front, something is in front, something is in front, until there isn't anything in front and it's going to jump into our L statement, which is going to have serial, not print line. And then in there, we can put let's say clear, nothing ahead. And then we should take that LED statement right here and just call the same thing, but tell it low so that it turns off. And at the bottom, let's make a bit of a delay. Doesn't have to be anything crazy. 300 milliseconds should be fine. All right, now we see that our Arduino is actually activating. I'm gonna refresh it one more time. All right, let's see what happens when I put my hand in front of the sensor. Nothing. And as I move it down, it should activate. Oh, I think we're on. Let's go into our serial monitor. So tools, serial monitor, pull that up right now. It's saying clear, nothing ahead, clear, nothing ahead over and over and over and over. Now I'm gonna put my hand in front. Sensitivity is really low.  So we'll see what happens as I move my hand closer and closer to the sensor. Oh, there we go. It activates. It's saying something is in front, it's freaking out. As I move my hand back, clear, nothing ahead. Pretend you're driving in your car, you're going to get some groceries because you want food, who doesn't want food.   As you move away, it'll go away. Move in, beep, beep, beep, beep, beep, beep, move out. And that's what you use the sensor for. If you wanted more precise measurements, you'd have to use an ultrasonic sensor like we used in the previous video that I showed you where we were able to get actual precise measurements on a ruler as we were moving it closer to another object. But the downfalls of that is that it works off of sound and this works off of IR light. I hope you enjoyed this video. If you did, please do consider subscribing and liking the video. About 80% of my viewership right now is not subscribed to my channel. I'm at 1,200 subs, so imagine if 80% of my viewership is not subbed, how many subs I could be at and how far I can get this channel going.

With all the signals of the sea, none turns the faces of hardy sailors more grim than the flags that spell Hurricane Warning. One morning late in September 1938, the dread signals swung aloft along the Florida coast. Up from the West Indies, cradle of Hurricanes moved the terror, a pit of low atmospheric pressure into which the air rushed from all directions to form a whirling, shrieking vortex of high wind and heavy rain. Hurricane! The Coast Guard watched it warily as it moved northward, paralleling the coast. At night it was off the Carolinas, next morning it was off Maryland and Delaware, apparently swinging harmlessly out into the Atlantic, but a high pressure area at sea deflected the hurricane back toward land. September 21st in mid-afternoon, this tropical terror struck, swept over Outer Long Island, swept into thickly settled, highly developed New England, struck with winds roaring a hundred, a hundred and fifty, almost two hundred miles an hour. Hidleways, thirty to forty feet high, struck a section, unprepared. The great wind-driven waves swallowed the sandy bulwarks of the coast, washed away the pleasant beaches of Long Island's southern shore, literally changed the coastline. Bridges joining islands to the mainland were destroyed almost instantly. Men risked almost certain death trying to swim to their isolated homes, and the Coast Guard restrained them when it could. Flicking New York City with its outer friends, the whirling storm smashed full force across Long Island. Thousands of homes along the seashore were shattered, mansion and modest home alike, the storms tore timber from timber, leaving only tangled wreckage. Millions of dollars worth of yachts and pleasure craft were smashed or swept far up on land, damaged beyond repair. Undermined roadbeds, derailed trains, passengers were marooned, some of them drowned. Great radio stations, keys to wireless communication for the continent, went down as the tempest swung across Long Island Sound. Just back of New London's wrecked strewn waterfront, fire broke out in the night, keeping four business blocks. Automobiles were crushed and twisted by falling trees and whirling timbers. Cutting a wide pathway of ruin inward from the sea, the storm piled up property damage in the hundreds of millions of dollars, and the quiet dignity of colonial meeting houses was reduced to broken lumber. In one breath hour, part of the ancient beauty that was New England's heritage vanished forever. One of the structures which stood out the storm unharmed is this bath house at Scarborough Beach, Rhode Island, built by WPA. Even ocean-going vessels were tossed ashore by mountainous waves flying before the hurricane. Rugged buildings which had stood for decades along the stormy coast collapsed. Northward the tempest swept across Connecticut and Rhode Island, across Massachusetts, into Vermont and New Hampshire, and on to Canada. With communication cut off, the full extent of the disaster was unknown for days. The nation waited fearfully for meager bulletins bearing sad tidings. On the watersheds of New England, the storm brought new torrents to rivers already gorged after three days down-bore, and so flood was added to the burden of the hurricane. Sweeping down from their headwaters in the high mountains, swirling rivers rose to levels rivaling the disastrous floods of 1936, increasing the difficulty of removing refugees and of carrying food and help into the stricken area. The great dam at Holyoke was a cascade of thundering water as the torrent poured over its crest. It was one of several cities along the banks of the Connecticut River to be partially inundated by rising waters. An immediate result of the storm was the complete disruption of transportation. Bridges were washed out. Roads were blocked. Beneath the water in this low-lying underpass are an automobile and the bodies of its two occupants who were trapped. How to get necessary food and medical supplies into the storm zone became a major question. But local relief agencies went into action at once, and the task of rescue began. Before hurried to assist neighbor, private citizens volunteered to aid police civic agencies in the Red Cross. All available boats were drafted into service. Family after family was rescued when rising waters threatened their brief security. True to their tradition of valiant service, the Coast Guard met the emergency with swift action. From the coastal islands, some of which were completely swept by gigantic waves, Coast Guard boats brought survivors to safety. Further inland, armies of workers from private relief agencies from nearby WPA and NYA projects from CCC camps, as well as men recruited from every branch of the military and naval services, erected sandbag barriers to halt the rising waters. For temporary expedience, but elsewhere the rivers were held in check by flood control projects completed by the WPA since the great flood of 1936. On the Nashua River at Fitchburg and on the Connecticut River at West Springfield, these new structures proved their value beyond question. In three days, an army of 110,000 WPA workers had been shifted to emergency storm and flood duty. Every little man with a pick on this map represents 1,000 workers of the WPA, manpower turning from regular public improvements and services into the breach in time of dire need. Where tracks remained to carry trains, thousands of these workers came by rail. Shock troops of disaster, someone has called them, because so many times in recent years they have provided the human sinews for great tasks of reconstruction. As the work of salvage began, sailors from Navy yards and soldiers from army posts aided civilian police in maintaining order. Part of the army of WPA men worked feverishly, helping to locate those trapped or lying dead beneath fallen debris. One man was found alive under 8 feet of wreckage 40 hours after the storm had passed. As New England rallied to the worst disaster of its history, WPA administrator Harry Hopkins flew from California to Providence. The only transportation in the stricken area. He made a quick tour of the ravaged area to plan with New England leaders the task of cleaning up as well as the six months job of rebuilding public facilities. Administrator Hopkins met with the governors of the storm torn states pledging the help of the federal government. Women workers of the WPA along with the Red Cross provided comfort for thousands of refugees. At Chickpea, Massachusetts in an infirmary also built by relief workers, they cared for families left homeless by the storm and provided nourishing meals for children whose own homes had not yet been made habitable. Sewing rooms like this one prepared warm dry clothes for all the needy. Every emergency unit local and federal swung into action to distribute food to the hungry. Trucks were commandeered to deliver food, clothing and surplus commodities to the entire population in the hurricane district. Food centers throughout the stricken area supplied families with provisions which could not be obtained elsewhere. Food centers were set up for the distribution of clothes donated by the Red Cross and those made in the WPA sewing rooms. Many of these badly needed garments were shipped from the sewing rooms of neighboring states outside of the hurricane district. Warm clothing helped to check the danger of serious illness. Stubbornly the ghastly wreckage of the storm gave way and the realization came that it would not be days but months before normal life could be resumed. They clung pathetically to their household treasures. Then did the heavier work and tried to save what they could. Ones like this one in Rhode Island tons of mud and sand washed over the main highways. All of this had to be cleared away before the paralyzed villages could make any headway toward recovery. Food for these workers was a major task in itself. Every truck not otherwise employed was pressed into service and loaded with food for consignment to various emergency projects. These groups of men working shoulder to shoulder were gathered from every sort of work project and they stopped their grueling labor only long enough to refuel their systems with sandwiches and coffee. And needed the help of machinery in his task huge sections of broken homes, roofs, whole wings, porches were dragged to open fields to be burned. These were the well-built homes of peaceful New England destroyed by the awesome power of a tropical hurricane. Every saw in the storm area bit deeply into fallen giants that had been a feature of the beauty of New England. Here youthful NYA and CCC workers vied with older men. Trees were down everywhere across streets on telephone and telegraph wires on houses. And New England could not get going again until they were cleared away. Rivers had roared over their banks in whirling fury during the storm and now tractors and cranes attempted to guide the streams back into their natural channels. Along the Mohawk Trail in Massachusetts whole sections of roadbed were washed into the streams below. Workers piled hundreds of tons of dirt into trucks and filled in the dangerous spots. All over New England were thousands of emergency repairs to be made. Public facilities which must be restored for a resumption of normal living by all the people. A job for manpower. A job once more for the WPA's shock troops of disaster. New England saw them in 1936 fighting flood just as the people along the Ohio River and the Mississippi saw them in 1937. The call may come from a great drought on the plain or a raging fire in the Timberlands. Wherever there is trouble on a heroic scale there you will find this peaceful army recruited from the ranks of the unemployed working hard and well with the other agencies of mercy.

I'll do a proper opening later.


Acquire wisdom and truth from whomever you can, because even an apostate can have them. But unless they are passed over to a faithful Muslim and become part of wisdom and truth that he possesses, they have a confused existence in the minds of apostates.


Okay, that is pretty freaking terrifying. Oh, man. Tray the bo- What is up, everyone?   Alright, uh. Okay, what do we have to do? Okay, we got a train. Okay, I think you can actually shoot Chuchu Charros with the train on, and it has a minigun. So that is pretty sick. That might be the exit over there. Um, we need to find stuff around the map to escape this, I believe. Oh no, and here comes Charros. Dude, what the heck, man? Okay, oh, I see a key. I see a key. Okay, we need a red key for this. We got a green key here. Grab the green key and run.  He's right behind.  Sick. Fastest stop, boy. Alright, we created some distance with Charros. He's pretty slow and fast at the same time. It's weird, but, uh. Where is it? Okay, we need the green key here. Oh, man, we need a yellow and a purple key, I think? Dude, where am I gonna find these freaking keys at? Okay, purple and yellow. Alright, we're still being chased. Okay, Charros got stuck on the barn over there.  Okay, actually, he's moving. Never mind. Oh, I see a key. Okay, that's the red key. I did see a red key symbol back at that, uh. Okay, the blue key's right there. Nice. Is that a blue key? Okay, it is. So we got the blue key right here. We need the red key for this. Oh, the train. Yo! I thought it was gonna run over Charros. That would have been awesome. Okay, we need the red key for, uh, for this door right here. Let's run on over and open this. Open! Okay, thank you. The doors have been wide open. Okay, what is this? Oh, the yellow key. Okay, we got the yellow key, which belongs to that big barn. My God, Charros is on the train tracks. He's so slow. All right, let's go open this or unlock this. Even though we do need another key. Okay, we need a purple key now. Great. Um, what do we need for this shack? Because it is closed. Um, let's go see. We need a screwdriver and a blue freaking key. Okay, did you see the blue key back over there where we were at on the ground? And Charros is on us once again. Dude, he is so slow. Come on, Charros. I know you're faster than that. I played the actual game, man.  Although he does look kind of scarier here. I don't know. All right, let's go run over to the blue key. Oh, let's get on the train and shoot him. I don't know if it actually, if he can kill you on the train, so we gotta be careful.  Okay, we are doing a lot of damage. That's definitely gonna kill him. He better die. Bro, he's not dead. What? Okay, the train's gonna crash him. Go, train. Oh, wait, he's like stunned. Dude, he's getting hit by the train. Okay, now he resurrected. Great. Okay, let's grab the blue key here. Grab this and we need to go back to that shack. And I think I saw the screwdriver in that house that we opened with the red key.  Okay, go. My speedboots aren't working. Why? Okay, they have a cooldown. Okay, three, two, one.  We gotta go fast. And we actually are timed, so we gotta beat the timer. Okay, we need a screwdriver. Screwdriver must be in here. Dude, he's stuck there. I think from the train hitting him, he got like messed up. Okay, screwdriver. Grab this and it should open up that warehouse or whatever you want to call this shack. Dude, that train really messed up Charles. He's like super slow. That was train on train violence. We just witnessed that. Okay, oh, what is this? Okay, the purple key. Nice. Okay, find a purple lock. Okay, the purple lock is obviously right here. Bro, we can do this without even running. Charles is messed up. What is this? A drill? Okay, we have a drill. I don't know where we can use this. Maybe at that wooden area. Okay, so hopefully this works. Okay, we drill this and we need a hammer and an axe. Which is strange because I have not seen Daniels on the map. So I guess this is the time where we take our time and actually look for these items. Okay, where the heck can they be? Okay, I found the hammer. It was hidden right here. Dude, I did not see it. I think the saw might actually be in here as well. I don't freaking know. I don't see it. Is that it? No, that's the key. Okay, I don't know where the saw can be at, dude. And we only have three minutes left. I'm going to find it because if not then we're trained meat, bro. We're dead. Bam. Now we need the axe. Yes, I found it. I found it. Yes.  No, Charles, please. Oh my God. I'm so close. That was way too close. Okay, no. He's right on me. Run. My speed was not working. My speed was not working. Okay, there you go. Dude, that was so close. Okay, I think this is all we need to escape. We just break down the last plank with this axe.  Oh my God. Go, go, go. I've escaped him for now. Okay, cool. So we got a part one ending. Yo, that was intense. That ending was intense. I found like I was about to die, man. All right. There's only a part one so far. Okay, cool. All right. This is the lobby. I did see they have an obby. Let's go beat it real quick. Let's go beat this thing real quick. All right. Where do we go? My God. Okay, go here.  Is that blood? What? How do you get around that? Maybe you do this. Okay. No, you can't jump on that. Bro. How do you always stops? Okay, I see. And like stops and then it pops out again. Oh, look, there's one of the eggs from the game. In the game, you actually have to collect eggs. No, it started again. Dude, that is scary the way it just pops out right there. All right. Well, that is Choo Choo Chow Rolls, Horror and Roblox. I'll leave the link for you guys in the description if you guys want to check it out. It's pretty cool. I recommend you play it yourself. You know, get a little private server just so you can beat it without having any other people randomly take the items and running off and not knowing what to do.  I'm just going to have a jump scare, but not really much of a jump scare. Dude, his teeth? Dude, they're all sharp and busted. Okay. They have a, what is that? Player? Player and infected mode. All right, you guys. Well, that's it. There's only a part one. I don't know when part two is coming out. I'll definitely check it out when that drops. Take care for watching and I'll see you in the next one.


The secret of life is to see everything with a non-serious eye but to be absolutely involved like a sport. That when you play the game, you play like your life depends on it. But once it's over, it's simply over that if you want to experience the multifarious dimensions of life, you have to be non-serious. This is a vast cosmos. The very planetary system, the solar system in which we exist is a speck. In that micro speck, the place you live is a super micro speck. In that, you have become a big man or woman and that's the reason why you are so serious about life.


The aim of the game is to milk, the most glasses of milk on the town. Oh my gosh, yeah, okay. Life on the farm. Life on the farm and... This is really happening. We're both doing quite well by the way. Oh yes, yes, sis. We're gonna feed an entire family with like fresh milk. Yep. There you go. Have you done this before? No. Well, like we're also on the farm, yes. That's understood. I think you understand. Yep. With a visual aid. Let's see, let's see, let's see. Oh look at that! Champion milker. I can see it. Yes. You're the finest milker in the land. Yes, how many cups? Three, four, five, six, seven, eight, nine... Look at that! Double digits. We did more than the previously. Double digits? Both of us improved on our score. Fantastic. Yeah, that's true. So close. Very close. A true milksman. No, this was our first joint milking. Was it your first joint milking? And how was it for you both? Well, me being an experienced milksman, I feel I've been invested, obviously, by a new leader. Well, beginner's luck. How does it feel to be the champion milksman? Well, um, I guess okay. I'll survive if I live in a farm now. I'm gonna go back to the gym and train for a rematch.


Each summer, undergraduates from all over the U.S., including Puerto Rico, descend upon the NEON Project headquarters in Boulder, Colorado to gain valuable skills and experience to further their STEM career goals. These aspiring professionals complete projects in a variety of fields including ecology, atmospheric science, engineering, remote sensing, mapping, and ecoinformatics. NEON interns spend 11 weeks developing skills in three main areas, technical training and experience, leadership and workplace preparation, and scientific communication. Each intern selects and completes a unique researcher design project. Interns work closely with NEON mentors to share their progress and direction. These projects provide technical training and real-world experience on a wide variety of topics. Opportunities to go out in the field and visit NEON sampling sites also give interns an up-close look at how NEON project teams collect data. By pairing up with mentors who are experts in their fields, NEON interns gain fundamental skills including project design, independent research strategies, and developing ideas collaboratively. Leadership training, weekly intern lunches, and social events also provide opportunities for networking and exploration of topics relevant to each intern's area of focus. NEON interns partner with interns from UCAR and UNAVCO in weekly scientific communication and writing workshops. By summer's end, interns present their work at poster sessions to gain valuable insight and feedback from a wide variety of scientists and engineers. The NEON internship program has nurtured and developed the next generation of STEM professionals since 2013 by providing the skills, tools, and experience necessary to advance their scientific and engineering endeavors. NEON encourages undergraduate students from diverse backgrounds interested in STEM to apply to the NEON internship program. Projects are announced each November and the application deadline is in early February.


The difference between where we are today and where we were in the past is that we are actually running the software ourselves. Developers with Agil were able to do a lot of development very quickly. The problem was that they created this bottleneck into their operations team. There was quite a gulf between the teams and they had kind of different goals. So we made two types of changes. We went from a world where at the end of every sprint had a quote potentially shippable increment to one where you deploy live at the end of every sprint. Microsoft is actually eliminating the test function. Now we're empowering developers. We're giving them control and authority over all of those parts. You develop it, you test it, you run it. If something's wrong, you have the power to fix it. It's easier to take an idea and convert that into code, get it out into production, keep iterating on it. If something goes wrong, it is considered part of the learning process and fail fast and recover from it and iterate again. Everybody's job is to ship the best product possible for our customers and whatever it takes to do that, that's what people step in and do. Operations does some development work. They do some test work. Testers do development work and operations work. Developers do all three as well. There's so many moving parts, so many opportunities for failure. And bringing sanity into that process is critical. If the operations team brings that sanity. I would say initially there was a healthy kind of hesitation. It's just ambiguity about what is it that I'm going to be expected to do and how am I going to be successful? So we have to tell them we are all in this together. We are going to constantly learn and adapt. So they got behind the chain. The role of operations has really changed. It's become more technical for those engineers. They really are starting to become on the front line with our customers. They're really a team that's focused on the incident process. And when something goes wrong, those alerts come in and we get them routed to the right team and then work to restore it as quickly as we can. We've really broken down a lot of the silos and barriers to communication. There is a lot more empowerment and autonomy given to individual featured teams to run as fast as they want to. If they have a feature idea and it's important on the backlog, they don't have to wait on another team to say yes. The funny thing is that we are at a point now where, in fact, the team is asking us, how can we accelerate this change even more?


The floor may not be a robot. The alarm began early in the morning for you. Your mother and father, mathered around the television with you, as a blaring tone rung out. The robot voice, holds ultimate authority now. Severe weather alert for Eastern seaboard. This is a severe weather alert being broadcasted at the request of the National Weather Service. Approximately 0700 hours Central Standard Time, An unusual tropical storm was located 900 miles off the east coast of the United States. The storm is unusual, in that it appears to be made of canine appendages and tissue, and is rapidly approaching inland with significant turbulence. All residents are advised to stay inside, and barricade doors and windows, if unable to evacuate within the next four hours. The storm's speed has considerable force and damage, inflicted by raining dog parts, have already been reported as far as mainland and Connecticut. Do not approach projectiles while they are still animate. Do not attempt to chase down runaway pets. A little confused, your parents look out the window. You live in Chicago, and indeed, turbulent rain began to dealt the asphalt. But what's this about dogs? What does that have to do with anything? Severe weather alert for Midwest England and Eastern seaboard. This is a continuous severe weather alert being broadcasted at the request of the National Weather Service. At approximately 0740 hours Central Standard Time, the irregular tropical storm breached inland. The eye of the storm currently is above Pennsylvania, with turbulence extending as far as Chicago and South Carolina. Insulation of all openings, including doors and windows leading into your home, is recommended. Citizens owning any domestic canines, are urgently requested to leave them outside. Do not let them in. Ignore any and all vocalizations, intelligible or otherwise. Your blood turns cold.  Someone must have hijacked the broadcast, during a storm of all things. The nerd. You don't notice quite yet, that the sky outside has darkened, and turned a mushy shade of red. Somewhere down the street, a woman faintly shrieks. The rain gets heavier. Severe weather alert for all states. This is a continuous severe weather alert being broadcasted at the request of the National Weather Service. This broadcast will continue until all severely anomalous weather has ceased. Isolate all domestic canines. Do not let them in. Seal every crack leading to the outside. Ignore all vocalizations from outside, until the storm has passed. If possible, send loved ones to lower levels of your homes. Do not leave your homes. Do not leave your homes. Do not leave your homes. Thick, heavy impacts can be heard from outside.  As he does, you watch in absolute horror, as a grimy red paw somehow warms its way in underneath the door. It is muddy with rain and viscera, and bone shines underneath the fur. The scratching and howling that accompanies the broadcast tone, is unbearable and innumerable.


Hi, okay then. So my background, I probably joined as the least programmary person on the program because I used to be a programmer, but now I'm sort of a management type. So my projects didn't involve like a huge amount of writing deep level code. But when we started to, on the first day, sort of let's see what happened with Molly, like trying to get Lotus running by following the documentation, I realized that we ran into a whole bunch of problems. And when I, and so I made my project being trying to figure out how to get the documentation or the build targets, the whole pipeline all the way through to making it so that someone can get to make a deal in Lotus simply by following the instructions without having to go off to Google or anywhere else. Some of these fixes are actually relatively straightforward and just documentation updates or clarifications, but some of them are actually there's problems with the build targets, there's problems with things being targets not being built at all or being missing. So there's various installation pathways, but they all have issues. So W get very simply linked to, there was a sort of copy and paste use this version linked to a very, very, very old target that we shouldn't be using anymore. The app image was 50% of downloads until it stopped until it was disabled in November because there was a problem with it being built and the snap target needed a small correction and the homebrew target didn't work until Russell fixed it. So none of these targets could do the main thing which is getting someone to the point of being able to type Lotus client deal and have it work without extra steps or Googling. Only thing that worked really was building from source. Also, I was looking at the docs.file.io documentation not the Lotus.file.io and that's like a completely separate set of documentation that is similar and has a different set of instructions and a different set of problems. So like as the beginning, the issues were things like broken SIM links, missing steps, mismatched docs, missing and broken CI targets, stale links and a broken install script. This leads to some other questions which is how did it end up being as broken as this? Which pathways are the important ones for new users? How do we know that these pathways are succeeding for users, not only just the targets work correctly but they're the ones that are popular and how will we know if they break again? And so if you wanna track those things in aggregate, you really want to understand what's happening in stats all the way through from someone landing on Filecoin.io or even having someone at Southwest say, hey, you should check this out all the way through to them actually connecting to the network. So then I started going off and looking for stats. So I went looking for Google Analytics, took me a while to track down how to get access to Google Analytics. I actually only got access to the GA for docs.Filecoin.io yesterday, thanks to Jeff Everard, then download stats for the different artifacts. So you have to look at GitHub downloads, also GitHub clones and then Homebrew and Snap. Well, they both have, if you wanna look at the stats of how many people are using those things, you have to go to different places. Although we could actually track on the documentation pages, we could put in links to possibly to track outbound links to those things and see whether things are doing stuff like that. But actually the hardest part is, is this leading to people actually connecting to the network. So I sort of spoke to a few people, Steph gave me some help. We're like trying to look at whether we can get some stuff from Sentinel or the various dashboards and my impression was that we have a huge amount of data on miners and the things going on there, but we actually don't track in any reasonable way how to get to just someone's just made this process work and they're connected to the network for the first time and they've tried to do a deal in Lotus. I think I found the answer to that, which is that in all of the various documentation paths, the thing that people try and connect to is APIChain.Love and we direct people to that for their first experimentation. So even if they go on to do other things later, if we can look at either the gateway stats or the daemon stats for API.Chain.Love, I can probably get to a good first approximation of people successfully following this documentation and becoming a real live user on the network. The only problem with that is that I still haven't managed to get access to that data yet. I'm hoping that I will get it today or tomorrow. So it's been a really good project for exploring the different parts of protocol labs and different parts of follow kind and figuring out who's in Pathfinder and some of the stuff that we were alluding to yesterday, but I haven't got to the end of this, but I'm also not at the end of this. I am good to get this finished. So my next steps are once I have all this, getting to a point where I can track end to end what's going on through this, then get, oh, one of the other things is that there's currently no Google analytics on Lotus.FileCon.io, and I should talk to, I wanna say pronounce it incorrectly, Mayank or Mayank? Yeah, that's absolutely correct. Okay, I've realized that you've been looking at the Lotus.FileCon.io, we probably should have spoken earlier because we should try and get GA back on that. And then we can track the activity via the various pathways and onwards into actual engagement when they get there. And then I want to deploy the fixes in the documentation so that we can see the effects of what we've done. Then after that, we measure what happens and see whether we've made a difference. We continue to iterate on it. We try and apply the same techniques to some of the other clients and tools and apps that we have, and maybe even build a dashboard to track conversion through this funnel, ongoing, do it for different platforms. And I'd actually like to do some, and maybe this has happened already, I don't know, some actually observed usability testing of not only the documentation of the CLI tools and see if we took developers who've never used our tools before and followed them through, we could probably figure out a bunch of ways in which we could unblock their onboarding. That's it, you can go and look at my work in progress and I'll continue to update it. And I wanna thank Lex Luthor, Corey Schwartz, Ognots, Steph, Florian, Russell, Molly, Lindsay, Jeff Everard and everybody in the cohort because I had a great time, thank you.


Former Alaskan Senator Mike Ravel, at 88 years old, has officially launched his 2020 campaign. And this is a very unorthodox presidential campaign. And it's unorthodox in the sense that he doesn't actually want to be president. He simply just wants to get enough individual donations to qualify for the debates and then make sure that he pushes the Overton window to the left. This dialogue in a positive way, in a left-wing way that emphasizes anti-imperialism, anti-interventionist US foreign policy. And there's other issues that he wants to push the envelope on. And this is a really interesting candidate. And he essentially cultivated this really large online following, primarily by dunking on the other 2020 candidates. And I'm not going to lie to you guys, I'm kind of living for it. Just to give you a few examples here. This is what he says about Pete Booty, Judge. Say what you will about Booty, Judge, but at least the latest narcissistic product of the best schools to rule Macron style over a decaying country mired in poverty and addiction will speak Norwegian. It'll be cool. If you want a vision of the future under Cory Booker, imagine a boot stamping on a human face forever. And every once in a while, it stops for an inspirational lecture on how we should never stop dreaming. The Beto campaign will pierce new frontiers in meaninglessness. Makes sense. So he's absolutely savage. I don't think I've ever met a more ruthless 88 year old and I love it. Now the way that his campaign itself materialized is also interesting to me because as Vices Harry Cheadle explains, according to Splinter and Politico, a crew of lefty teenagers in New York state reached out to Gravel, who they had heard about thanks to the podcast Chappell Trap House to ask if they could set up an exploratory committee for a presidential bid and he said he'd be okay with it. And here we are now.  It's certainly the best in the field currently. But we're going to talk about all of that but first, this is his ad. So let's maybe bring up the topic of the day, which is the Green New Deal. How much will this cost that's unclear? How will we pay for it? Unknown. It's not realistic. Because there's no way to pay for it. It's immoral. The younger generation now tells me how tough things are. Give me a break. No, no. I have no empathy. I'm guided by the beauty of our weapons. I think Medicare for all is one of the possible paths. So I decided I was going to start prosecuting parents for truancy. This was a little controversial in San Francisco. He did ask you yes or no. Would you support free college for all? I am not for free four-year college for all. No. Human beings are being killed as I speak to you tonight, killed as a direct result of policy decisions we as a body have made. This approach of war on drugs has not succeeded. We've spent billions of dollars on it. And we fill up our prisons to the point where we're the embarrassment of the world. We're supposed to be a democracy. We've got more people in prison, 2.3 million people in prison. We spend more as a nation on defense than all the rest of the world put together. This whole nation should be a sanctuary for the world. I'm ashamed as an American to be building a fence on our southern border. That's not the America that I fought for. Our soldiers died in Vietnam in vain. You can now, John, go to Hanoi and get a Baskin Robbins ice cream cone. Why do they hate us so in so many places around the world? Because we kill so many people want them. Oh, Joe, I'll include you too. You have a certain arrogance. You want to tell the Iraqis how to run their country. And we can get off a gas plane in five years, and we can get off a carbon in 10 years. All we got to do is want to do it. Just to get out into their country, they're asking us to leave, and we insist on staying there. The military industrial complex not only controls our government, lock, stock, and barrel, but they control our culture. It's time to make some waves for change. I'm Mike Ravel, and I'm running for president. Now that, by far, is my favorite ad of the race, because it shows not just the weaknesses in the current crop of 2020 candidates, but it shows that even back in 2008, when we weren't as privy to just how bad the Democratic Party was back then too, it shows that they were still pretty bad. It shows Barack Obama, Joe Biden, and Hillary Clinton laughing at what he had to say. I love the ad. Now I want to get to his policy platform, because that to me is really his biggest strength, and it's why he's my favorite candidate so far. So when you look at his platform, there are four different planks overall. There's a foreign policy of peace, attacking poverty and inequality, justice for all, and fundamental political reform. Now when you go to policy and peace, you can see that everything he says here is incredibly progressive. So first of all, he wants to rejoin the Paris Climate Agreement, reverse the withdrawal from the UN Human Rights Council, rejoin the Iran nuclear deal. These are all, I think, standard Democratic Party positions, but here's where he takes it a step further. He is strong about nuclear non-proliferation. He wants to sign and ratify the treaty on the prohibition of nuclear weapons. Now he also wants non-aggression abroad. So I mean, there's plenty of planks here, I'll link to it down below. But he vows to not invade any sovereign country such as Venezuela. And here's what's really important, something that's lacking in even Bernie Sanders and Tulsi Gabbard's platforms, and the use of unmanned aerial vehicles or drones for military purposes, as these have consistently resulted in horrific civilian casualties and fatalities. He vows Guantanamo Bay and pay reparations to all untried detainees past and present. He wants to rename the Department of Defense the Department of War, abolish the U.S. Space Force and the militarization of space, and commit to a parody budget for a supposed Department of Peace between that and the Department of War. He wants to bring every single troop home, and he wants reparations for communities negatively impacted by U.S. bases abroad and close all military bases abroad. I mean, this is this is amazing. He wants to cut military spending by 50 percent. He wants to join the International Criminal Court, something that I've been advocating for since I was a college student and I learned about just how important the International Criminal Court is and how so many past presidents have decided to not join it because they don't want to be bound by potential war crimes and prosecution for that oppose Israeli apartheid. He wants to end military aid to Israel, not stifle BDS. He wants to recognize Palestinian statehood or call for a plural state in which Israelis and Palestinians all enjoy full and equal rights. Something that I think is fantastic, although we'll kind of get into why he may not necessarily be the best messenger because we know that this is going to be weaponized against him. So I'll explain that later. He also says he wants to end support for Saudi Arabia, make war constitutional again, a peaceful solution to the Korean Peninsula. Now, let me go back and we'll touch on some other things here. Attacking poverty and inequality. He is supporting full reparations to American descendants of slavery and Jim Crow and redlining Native Americans as well. He's proposing 30 billion per year for from government coffers. This is really important decriminalizing sex work for education reform, protect parents, protect our children. And this is with regard to education preschool, a baby box program, which gives every new parent or not necessarily every new parent, but every new child a box with the essentials, which I think is a great idea, economic support for the least advantaged. He wants a national health service system. So this is further than single payer. This is more along the lines of what Britain has with the national health system, 1.5 trillion in infrastructure, a $15 minimum wage. There's a lot here and I'm not going to get into all of this. Green New Deal, public banking for all, automatic tax filing. There is a lot. So I mean, if I had to construct my own ideal platform for what I'd want to see a presidential candidate advocating for, that's basically it. It's virtually perfect, virtually perfect. It's the strongest, most progressive platform by a mile and a half of anyone running. And yes, that includes Bernie Sanders and Tulsi Gabbard as well. So by far, he's my favorite presidential candidate. And I get that he doesn't actually want to be president. He plans to drop out and endorse Bernie Sanders after he makes it to the debates. But he doesn't want to be president. He just wants these policy issues to be talked about. Totally respected. And I love what he's doing. So the question is what everybody's thinking. He's literally perfect then. Is that what you're telling me, Mike? He's perfect. We finally found the perfect candidate, not necessarily. He's not perfect. There are some flaws, not necessarily flaws, I'd say, but pretty big red flags that make me feel a little bit uneasy. So first of all, he said this in 2016 on Kevin Barrett's radio show, quote, there's no question in my mind that 9-11 was an inside job. Yeah, not not something I want to hear a presidential candidate say. I think that this type of conspiracy mongering is it's problematic. We need to be training people in the United States and educating them more specifically to use logic and base their political positions and ideas off of evidence. So the conspiracy theory thing is a problem. And he said this on a show of someone who is essentially a lesser known Alex Jones, light type person who is a conspiracy theorist, who is pretty anti-Semitic. Now he's anti-Semitic because this is someone who is a known Holocaust denier. Additionally, Grovel has also spoken at Lyndon LaRouche sponsored events, which is known for anti-Semitism and conspiracy theories. Now that's not to say that Grovel himself paraded any of their views. Rather, he contends that he used their platform to promote his own anti-imperialist views. And his campaign has since come out and disavowed Kevin Barrett. And they also said that Mike Revelle has never been a Holocaust denier anti-Semitic. And he just felt the need to bring his anti-imperialist views to whatever platform would be willing to host him. So one, the fact that he disavowed Kevin Barrett is important to me, but we do need further clarification about his position on whether or not he thinks that 9-11 is an inside job because it's not. That's a conspiracy theory. And please do not promote misinformation. That's that's something that I find incredibly harmful right now. So with that being said, look, people have got to make their own decision about this. I still overall can overlook this, even if I find it troubling, because we're supporting him for a very narrow task. We're not saying we want him to be president. We're saying we want him to make it to the debate stage to influence the discussion in a meaningful way, in a progressive way. And I think it's important that even individuals who are progressive, like Bernie Sanders and Tulsi Gabbard and Elizabeth Warren, but mostly Bernie and Tulsi, he can have a real positive influence and really expose some of their shortcomings that I think they need to correct because they both currently support drones. And if he can influence them to move away from that position and challenge them from the left, I think that there's real value in that. So if you can overlook that, then I would encourage you to give him a buck. He just needs 65 individual donations. I believe he's at just over 7000 so far. So so long as you throw him a dollar, he will qualify for the Democratic Party debates in, I believe, June and July, at least one of them. But it's going to be important to get him on the debate stage in spite of these red flags. But with that being said, you know, this is certainly an interesting candidate and you can't deny him the fact that he has the most progressive platform. I think that any Democratic socialist or social Democrat has got to acknowledge objectively speaking that he's outflanking Bernie and Tulsi and Elizabeth Warren from the left. And I think that's great. Any positive influence that, you know, can be had on these candidates that we already support, I welcome it in spite of the shortcomings. So I'll leave that there. Mike Gravel certainly has piqued my interest and I hope he does make it to the debates. Senator Gravel. At a forum earlier this year, I want to get this right. You said it doesn't matter whether you are elected president or not. So then why are you here tonight? Shouldn't debates be for candidates who are in the race to win the race? Ryan, you're right. I made that statement. But that's before I had a chance to stand with them a couple of three times. It's like going into the Senate. You know, the first time you get there, you're all excited. My God, how did I ever get here? Then about six months later, you say, how the hell did the rest of them get here? And I've got to tell you, after standing up with them, some of these people frighten me. They frighten me. When you have mainline candidates that turn around and say that there's nothing off the table with respect to Iran, that's code for using nukes, nuclear devices. I got to tell you, I'm president of the United States. There will be no preemptive wars with nuclear devices. To my mind, it's immoral and it's been immoral for the last 50 years as part of American foreign policy. Let's use a little moderator discretion here. Senator Gravel, that's a weighty charge. Who on this stage exactly tonight worries you so much? Well, I would say the top tier ones, the top tier ones. They made statements. Oh, Joe, I'll include you too. You have a certain arrogance. You want to tell the Iraqis how to run their country. I got to tell you, we should just play get out. Just play get out. It's their country. They're asking us to leave and we insist on staying there. And why not get out? What harm is it going to do?  The entire deaths of Vietnam died in vain. And they're dying in vain right this very second. You know what's worse than a soldier dying in vain? Is more soldiers dying in vain? That's what's worse.


As part of this award, Security Benefit Corporation is giving a $5,000 contribution to Special Olympics. Ladies and gentlemen, it is my great pleasure to present the award for outstanding service to public education to Special Olympics. Joining this award on behalf is the Chairman of Special Olympics, Timothy Shriver. Thank you. I was given the chance to say just a few comments tonight, although I think it's almost unfair not to have heard from those extraordinary teachers earlier on, but I'm grateful for just a second to say to each of you what a great honor it is for me to be here. I started my career in education. I don't know if there's anybody here from Connecticut, but Hill House High School, and all right, okay. So I did my practice teaching in New Haven at Lee High School, which is not there anymore, and have an enormous affection and enormous appreciation for the work being done by each and every person in this room. I think we live in a time hungry for heroes. I was thinking watching the teachers tonight as they came up. I was remembering President Obama recognizing Gary Rensburg at the State of the Union. I don't know how many of you saw it, but it was such an extraordinary moment where the president looked to one person to embody the spirit of sacrifice, the spirit of dedication, a spirit of giving to something bigger than yourself without regard to self. And although it may seem a stretch, I think so many of you in this room embody that same spirit, and I think I was looking at him and thinking to myself, teacher's the same message, same message, same message. I'm here, I think there's a few slides, but I'm here again just very briefly. I want you to know I'm here on behalf of over four million human beings with intellectual disabilities. This past year, our movement included that many athletes around the world participating in over 70,000 community-based activities in India and China and Afghanistan and Rwanda and South Africa and Peru and Mexico and in every state in the United States, Canada, most of Europe and all of Asia. All of these people have one thing in common. And increasingly bringing their message to schools with a singular point of view, not just about pity, not just about sports, although sports is so powerful, but also about inclusion, also about unity, also about teaching one another the goodness of the human spirit, the power each of us has to do something good, the power each of us has to end the idea that anybody is dis anything. To be honest, I think we need a new era. I think we need a new era led by so many kids. If you look at some of the pictures, which I hope you'll see just now, I think we need a new era. All across the country, our efforts now are focused on schools, bringing unified sports to schools, bringing the idea of inclusive education on the playing field to schools across the country. And many of you are old enough to remember when Title IX was passed, you know, everybody looks back now and thinks, how could we possibly have ever had a time when an American high school would not have had girl sports? Well, it wasn't so long ago. It wasn't so long ago. And now we have it and it's considered normal. Why not a time? Why not a time in the future where the new Title IX would be a new title, challenging American education, American schools, American park rec departments, to ensure that there's also inclusive sport in every school, maybe a title unified in the future. Maybe we think of special education becoming unified education and a whole new world of possibility is born. So I want to thank you all. I want to thank Dennis. I want to thank Harriet. I want to thank Mike. I want to thank all the donors tonight. The first thing and most important thing that I learned as a teacher was the power of what we came to call social and emotional learning. We coined that phrase in New Haven and I still think it's the most important element missing often from these school reform debates. Nobody's better at teaching the lessons of social and emotional learning than the children with special needs in your schools. Let's empower them and welcome them in a new way. Thank you very much.

All right, today's video, puppy bite development and exercises, prepping for elite protection soon to come, okay, when the puppies are old enough. So I've shown some of these on YouTube in the past and I have an instructional video on how to do all the high level elite protection dog exercises. So just to give you a little here, I'm going to use these two five month old Dutch Shepherd puppies. They just turned five months old. And people have been asking me because I put a few videos up just recently of them working with their owner and people are going, who are these dogs? Who is this guy? So this is Michael. He is a client of mine that lives in France. We've been skyping for months ever since he got them, like eight weeks old, nine weeks old. And we've been doing Skype training from here in Miami to France twice a week. And I'm going from the beginning with him on obedience and bite work. So taking him right from the beginning, scratch all the way to make these two. In the end, elite protection dogs, okay? Meaning these guys in the end will sell somewhere $65,000 to $120,000, okay? So that is elite. So the exercises in here that we're going to do, just to show you some of the prep foundation of taking a puppy and what I'm teaching Michael, what he needs to do to start getting the foundation of elite protection. So here, first exercises, you're going to see just like you just saw here, having the puppy run and hit here. This is where I want all my protection dogs to hit in the end ideally, right? Circumstances in the moment change. Sometimes it might be here, but that's we want here, right? As much as possible. So all our foundation work is going to be here. So and I explained in the other videos why here, right? Because one little touch with no suit on, no equipment in this area and here is excruciating. So any touch from a protection dog with those teeth that UI humans were not meant to be bitten by, any little touch in there, people drop weapons very quickly in either hand no matter what side the dog hit. So that is why we do here. We want to end the fight very, very quickly within a few seconds. That absolutely immobilizes people and just right. So you're going to see here rebel running and hitting the pillow here and taking Michael down, which leads to later flying hardcore attacks up here in that area. Good girl, good girl, good girl. So the puppy is the before and that is the later after of developing these kind of exercises. Now, also, we do bite exercises with the pillows and tugs to target that area very young because we want to condition from the very beginning and make obsession about the targets and where we want that mind to always be thinking about striking and hitting in the end, right? When they're older without any hesitation, without any thought, okay?  And this is from the bite development that I did with her. So we're doing that same thing on these two little Dutch Shepherd puppies. So we have the one exercise of running and targeting. And then the other one is stationary close here, targeting that upper area, okay? Because later in suits or for real life, if somebody has an attack or try to hit the dog, right? Or a weapon and they're going to go, we're making sure it's a complete right stoppage that any aggressive action is stopped immediately in these areas. And again, if you've never been in a suit and felt really good, hard biting dogs, right? These are thick suits to take this kind of abuse. It still hurts like heck when they get you in those areas through the suit, right? It's, oh, right, I mean it's hard to take when they get through that suit like that. So again, without equipment on, we're targeting those areas to put the fight done and over quickly, okay? And making sure the dog doesn't get hurt, right? By stopping here, okay, especially with the weapon hand, we're usually targeting the hand with the weapon so that they stop it and when they, that, the weapon will drop. So making dog safety too. So not only putting into the fight, we're making sure by that targeting, okay, that ending the fight and making dogs safe that they're not going to get hit, okay? Because that's why we don't do here, right? Because when dogs come in and are taught here, if you have a weapon, even in this hand and it's not nearly as painful as up here, believe me, I've been hit here without and it's painful, but I could take it. I just switch the weapon and right if it's a knife, anything, bam, bam, okay? So you put the dog at a big disadvantage by doing these bites and finishing your bite work here on forearms, right? For me, that's only prep work as puppy stuff, young dog stuff, preliminary bite work. All ending protection dogs finished have to be up here, okay? And again, occasionally things will happen, some will move certain way and they'll catch somewhere else in here and sometimes here, but it happens, but that is not where we're targeting, okay? And we want to really make sure we have dog safety. That's another reason why I'm not really a big leg guy, right? The dogs come in and shoot for the leg. If I have weapons up here, easy game, stab, bat, punch, kick, right? So I really, I teach puppies, you're going to see here that we do do a leg bite. But that is because we're really prepping the dog, this puppy, possibly for competition later. So I'm throwing in leg bites as well because that is a possibility down the road that we might want to do, okay? So just in case. But real protection work, this is where it's at, okay? Yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes. Good girl, say the rest. Strike, house. All right, then here we do, we start prepping our bark on command, add an object away from us. All right, shouldn't go out. Return to us. Okay, so these two already have bark on command at the owner, right, with food. And now we have to reverse it because in real life, we're going to be telling the dogs to talk and threaten somebody else that's away from us, okay? So a prep work is doing bark work on objects away from us and telling them the word they bark, okay? So prepping again for later, real protection, we have bad guys, decoys that when they are next to our leg and eventually off a leash, right, with total control that we don't need leashes, when we tell them to bark and watch, they bark at the person but don't leave our side. It's only to alert and bark at them. So as puppies, we start this game with toys and fun stuff to get the cueing behavior and the idea of we want them to bark at something else away from us when told, not at us now. Okay, so many people have a problem with this. I mean, I get thousands of emails a year that people cannot get their dogs to bark away from them, okay? And I have videos on this and how to do these things. So yeah, so that's why we start this early and start getting that talking away and directed at something else, right? And I've spoken about this before, shaking in bite work. To me and my system, I want big shaking dogs. So I've talked about this in other videos. Shaking brings out that primal, right? Creating more passion in the bites. It does a lot of damage when dogs grab and shake. So no suit, somebody breaks in, somebody tries to harm you, your family. It's on, right? They bite and hit these areas and start shaking. That is a nightmare, right? That's tissue, pain. And when dogs shake, it is hard to keep your balance. And I've trained thousands of protection dogs. And when you get shaken really good by dogs, it's hard to keep your balance and try to do anything. So here, for example, Michael with one of his little Dutch Shepherd puppies here, she was shaking the pillow so hard that he was dropping his remote and then trying to go get it because she was shaking so much, the remote was flying all over the place. So that's what happens when you get big shakers. It really disorients you. So not only they're punishing you, you're getting disoriented and thrown all over the place and shaken. It's very hard to fight back when you have massive shakers that are just shaking you all over the place. So it's an added bonus to a real world protection dog. The schnauzer here, massive shaking, aggression. And one day, working with him, he went, hit me up here, grabbed on, started shaking and he popped my shoulder out and I could not move that arm for like a month. It was all out of whack, mangled. It was excruciatingly painful, right? It was just like a little pop, nothing severe, but I was in the suit and I could not move that arm or use it for anything excessive for like four weeks. So that is what shaking can do in the protection game. It adds a lot of really good things to protection work. So I'm a big, big proponent on shaking and teaching that very young. So like Michael's two duchies here, you see right from the beginning, they're just going at it with that tug. And this is taught, we're teaching excessive shaking. So this is something that we're building and enhancing. So just want to give you a little look into starting bite development game with young puppies. And I'll be doing videos on these two because we have a long way to go. We have a lot of advanced elite exercises coming and with these two, you'll be seeing things later on that I've never shown before in protection on YouTube and things that nobody's ever done before with protection dogs. So we have a lot of plans for these two that these two are even going to be the highlight to take the protection dog world to another level. So stay tuned and I'll keep putting videos out on these two as we keep growing their game. So until next time, might be dog whisper.
