The following is a presentation of TFNN. The morning markets kickoff with your host Tommy O'Brien. Good Tuesday morning everybody. I'm Tommy O'Brien, coming to you live from TFNN. Thanks for starting your trading day off right here. And what do we got folks? Check your glasses. Check the binoculars. We got red across the board right now. S&Ps trading down 18 points yesterday. We were chopping around. We talked about an acceleration. We got some earnings going on. We'll jump over to those in a moment. But right now you've got markets in negative territory with the S&Ps down about 18 points trading at 45.96. You see that volatility. We were just about 46.08 as of 7 a.m. this morning. As I mentioned, we got some numbers coming up. You get the NASDAQ off 72 points this morning. The Dow off by 94 and the Russell off by 10. Russell still trading above 2,000. How about crude yesterday? Accelerates to 82 bucks on the dot. Man, Basil Chapman. He loves those round numbers. $82 on the dot. We've trailed off a bit. We're trading at 81.16. And right now you got gold trading lower by $25 to 1983. You've got to jump over to the dollar index, right? Talk about some dollar strength, man. So what do we got today? We got dollar strength. We got higher yields coming at you. Okay? It's so interesting, the market that we find ourselves in, man, because what's been the consensus, right? The consensus has been wrong for some time. We're talking about a 10-year yield right now at 4.02%. What happened to the Fed pausing and that being, and listen, we're only what? Not even a week past that meeting that we just had where the Fed hiked on last Wednesday. It's just Tuesday right now, okay? All things in context, I understand. But we are seeing higher yields. We're seeing a stronger dollar. We're seeing that weighing on commodities. And meanwhile, the market is just chopping around at 4,600 right now. So much of the growth on these companies, whether you talk about revenue, you talk about earnings, what is going to happen when they can't raise prices by 10%, right? Jump to a company like Procter & Gamble. I'm jumping around a bit. But boy, they have their numbers on Friday. Strong numbers because they're raising prices. They're raising prices 10% one year. They're raising it 10% the next year. They're raising it 7% the year after that. And meanwhile, got to go back five years to get over, which is pretty remarkable. Company like Procter & Gamble, they get away with raising their prices 10%, 10% and 7%. Now they have to pay higher costs, which is why they're raising them, okay? But they're also bringing a lot of that money to the bottom line. And yes, their stock is up, okay? Yes. Now let's back it up even further for some context. We hit a low in 2018 of about $70. And I'm cherry picking some equities here, man. But as I go through some of these equities and you talk about some of the sound companies relying on earnings, right? We're trading at 156. We came into COVID at about 127 folks. They just jacked their prices 10%, 10%, 7%. You're talking about we are almost four years past that price point, okay? What happens when they can't raise the prices? That's the point. We're going to find out, man. That's a segue to the article from the journal. I want to kick the program. Excuse me, Bloomberg. Wall Street economists are looking at September. Nope. That's not the one I wanted. Where are we? Here we go. Earning season threatens lofty stocks. Investors say optimism in markets could evaporate. If profits get squeezed further, it's not happening yet. And I'm not so sure it's going to happen this season, man. But it's going to be interesting as we go out a quarter or two, right? What's the consensus? They are talking about maybe we start getting hikes somewhere. Excuse me, hikes. Got to get out of my vocabulary, man. Maybe we get some cuts. The word cut. Going to come back into your vocabulary. Maybe we get some as you go towards the beginning of next year. What's going to be so interesting? The last quarter of this year, as in October, November, December, right? The last quarter of this year going to be especially interesting, I feel like, because that is when the student loan repayments begin. And you talk about a vacuum sucking money out of the economy, man. Tens of millions of people are basically going to have $300 to $500, if not even more on many occasions, added immediately that is taken away from their disposable income. And in most cases, it's probably not disposable income that is taken away from, right? It's probably taken away from income that a lot of which is not disposable. And so how do they make those decisions? Where do they pair back? Maybe all the disposable income goes away. Consumer spending, I'm not sure. We find out that begins October 1st. Three to six months is not that long. So we see where we go from there. The earnings have been strong so far, though, man. Consensus estimates for the S&P 500 quarterly earnings, year-over-year change. You got Q3 versus Q4. Q4, we got some lofty numbers, man, in terms of where we're at, right? Check it out. 10%, 8% across the board, man. 7% year-over-year decline in earnings for the second quarter. That's where they are. We had some lofty numbers to say the least, man. So we get to find out we're going through earnings seasons. We got some strong numbers today to kick things off, though. Let's talk about Uber. Why not post the first operating profit as ridership hits a new record? GA General Accepted Accounting Principles Operating Profit, $326 million. And their CFO, Nelson Chai, not familiar, but guess what? That's probably an opportune time, right? He's achieved that goal. Chief Financial Officer, they have operating profits, GAAP standards, second quarter operating profit, $326 million free cash flow. That's a decent number, $1.14 billion. The market's up barely in the pre-market, but a lot of optimism priced in. And this is a great example when you jump over to a company like Uber, okay? We're barely positive, but guess what? We just doubled this year. Uber is up 100% since January, man, from $25 to $50. That's simple math, folks. There's your action on their numbers. We're up to $52.73. We've paired some of those gains. We're back to $49.91. I mean, it's a lesson in terms of where we've been. The writing was on the wall their last earnings season. It looks like they go from $30 straight up to $50. They deliver that first operating profit. They come in and the market says, Humho, we knew it was coming. We're trading basically flat on their numbers. Now, Uber, they had a $3.80 move priced in. So that is a lot of volatility, man, for a company that's going to open about 40 pennies from where we closed last night. But as we know, sometimes where supply equals demand, when the market's open, we'll see if it starts moving from there. So they had a driver shortage that caused fares and wait times to increase the number of active drivers. Up 33% in the second quarter compared to a year ago. Number of trips taken increased 26% from a year earlier to a record high. That is a remarkable number, man, right? Think about it. Well, August 2022 in the world was wide back open folks, okay? So they had quite a surge in ridership 26% from a year earlier. Crazy, man. And there's their profit, right? You talk about some huge losses when they were coming in, man, especially during COVID, everything dried up. Yeah. Gross bookings, 34 to 35 billion in the current quarter is what they're looking for, man. Yeah. They're talking about EBITDA earnings, about a billion dollars, both above forecasts. Pretty remarkable. And that company is going to open at 50. But boy, the first quarter that you have profitability, right? You don't even trade higher because guess what? It's baked into the prices, man. So we'll see where we go from there. S&P is a little bit of negative action to kick things off. We're trading right now at $45.98. Note to bonds. Keep your eye on it, man. That is quite a move from $111.16. We just got a $110 handle. The low of last Friday was $110.25. And on a daily basis, you are chopping around at the lows of a lower price, higher yield with the 10-year, sitting above 4% right now. Stay tuned, folks. We'll be coming back. We'll talk some markets. We'll take a look at some of the other equities with their numbers this morning. Talk to Jim Blue. Talk to some others. Stay tuned. We'll be right back.

Welcome back, folks. We have the S&P's off 17 points right now, trading just under $4,600. We're still a stone's throw away from those all-time highs, man, of about $4,800. You're only 200 points away. Boy, when this market can run, it can run. We get two months until a Fed meeting. We get jobs numbers on Friday, man. We get some economic numbers with earnings before that. Jumping back to Uber for a second. So, as I mentioned, quite a run. This equity, positive in the pre-market, there is the one thing that did weigh on them, the freight unit. It's amazing how many components of this business they have. Great CEO running it. Dario, what did he run? How do you pronounce that name? Let's see. He's up here somewhere. All right. We'll get to him. Nonetheless, what I was going to say is they're freight. It accounts for less than a quarter of the total revenue, but think about it. That's approaching 20-25%, okay? Bookings and sales tumble 30% in the quarter. Category-wide headwinds. Spot rates seasonally weak. A trend it expects to continue in the near term. So, yes, that unit, their freight unit, accounts for less than a quarter of total revenue. It's just an extreme number. Still, now they go from there, okay? You talk about the food delivery business? Check it out. Uber Eats generated 3.06 billion in revenue. Slightly below Wall Street's estimates. And that is not how many... That's not the value of orders they're doing. That is their share of the revenue. $3 billion in 90 days, EBITDA of $329 million as the unit benefited from advertising within the app. Now, my perspective is, okay, is that as the economy potentially tightens here, be careful on those numbers if you're an Uber fan man. And Uber's a great company. They're going to be around forever. Optimism high, expectations very high as well. And it's tough to achieve those multiples sometimes. This is just one up 100%, okay? But it is a good company. But my perspective on these food numbers, okay, customers seem to have been undeterred by higher prices for food with delivery frequency of four monthly orders per an eater up 8% from a year earlier. So they're matching what you're talking about. Total revenue, $9.2 million during the period that narrowly missed the $9.3 that the market was looking for. Now, that is a luxury, folks. Don't confuse the two, right? You have their ride-hailing business is a necessity, a staple. You need a car. Many people use Uber, especially younger people. If they don't have a car, you're not going to need a car. I was having a conversation with our man Basil Chapman yesterday. He's been talking about kids. So Tommy's two and a half tomorrow, folks. Two and a half tomorrow on the day. Two and a half tomorrow. And so he's going to get his license if they still exist in 14 years, okay? Now, they'll probably still exist if I had to wager one way or the other. But imagine where ride-hailing is. Imagine where self-driving vehicles are. Imagine where they are in the year 2038, 2037. You might not need them. Self-driving cars are coming at some point. That is, so that's a necessity, right? The food delivery business, man, it is expensive, okay? I used to order this stuff all the time and I feel like I'm lighting money on fire when I order it right now. And listen, you know, you got a busy night. You got a long day. You want a luxury. You want to treat yourself. You want food getting delivered at home. That makes sense, okay?  Percentages on percentages add up, right? What's the food bill went up in the last two to three years? 20%. Well, let's say you have a $50 bill on a food delivery business. If it goes up by just 20%, that means it's $60. Now you have a 10% charge on Uber while that charge just went from instead of $5 on the 50. Now it's $6 and more percentages point being, folks, it seems like it's at a level that's excessive, okay? And I used to order Instacart as well. Same deal, man. Grocery prices went up. Percentages on, ride, food delivery, whatever it be, have gone up. The tip goes up from there. You end up spending $40 or $50 in a heartbeat, man. I remember about a year ago I ordered Chipotle from, I think Uber Eats. And I think I ordered two burritos and the whole thing was like $46 to get delivered. I said, that's not okay. I'm not gonna do that one again. And listen, I love Uber, but I'm getting both sides of it, man. I'm surprised that the food delivery business has held up so well. Freight is gonna be a problem there. But guess what? The core of their business, yeah. Uber accounted for 74% of U.S. consumer ride share sales at the end of June. Lyft had 26%. Lyft's in trouble, man. Share is still less than 1% of the pre-market. How do you compete when you're that far behind? Right? That's the tough part, man. How do you compete when you're that far behind? You take a look at Lyft, now Lyft, yeah, they're up from $8 to $12.71. It's been quite a run, but check out the five-year chart on Lyft, okay? Lyft goes public at $88 and they're basically chopping around near lows. You check out that same chart on Uber, and Uber's actually above where it was trading at in May of 2019. Now, they both went public. Look at May of 2019, Uber goes public. Lyft went ahead of them, I believe. Yeah, March of 2019.  They come into COVID and sell off even further. So it was a one-way trip from $90 and pretty rockable they push it out right before COVID, right? But back that up to Uber as well. Uber does as well, but check it out, man. You have Uber trading above where it was in its IPO month just off the highs and you have Lyft trading well below from the price of $88, even if your cherry picked this $50, $60, this thing was chopping around at. And I remember saying during the time, listen, these companies are getting punished, but if you're doing both of them, Lyft made some tough decisions. Maybe they should have went for the food delivery business like Uber did. Maybe they should have went a little harder. Maybe they should have spent some money during that time to shore up that business because yes, they're more domestic, okay? Uber is very international, Lyft was more domestic. That's why you caught a real acceleration here from $23 up to about $68. That was all on the optimism that domestically, right? America was opening. You still had some problems with Europe, et cetera, but America was wide open. Uber not able to operate internationally as COVID was still in other countries, more so America, right? The vaccines took hold. There was your first vaccine acceleration when the world began to 221. No, yeah. I had to recalibrate my pain. That was the COVID sell-off, right? And this was the vaccine. The promise, the vaccine starts to get and delivered February, March, because Tommy was born, I got to my head, yeah, February of 2021. And that's where the vaccines were just becoming available in March and April in America. So there was optimism there, more so domestically that Lyft took off. But boy, I mean, Uber is a verb in the English language, right? You say, let's Uber to the party. Let's Uber home. Hey, we'll Uber there. That way we don't have to drive. Nobody says let's Lyft. You want to Lyft home? It's a big problem, man, when they're that far behind. And I'm not sure how you catch up at this point. And the Holy Grail, of course, of these companies, as they say, is self-driving vehicles. The one thing I want to caution you there, yes, that's obviously going to be beneficial, okay? But that's a different world. And I'm not even sure that Uber wants that world right now because they don't have to buy vehicles, right? They get people to drive their own vehicles. When they have self-driving cars, they're going to have to have a fleet of vehicles. But guess what? The moment that they can have a fleet of vehicles, who else is going to have a fleet of vehicles? Whoever is making those cars? Like who? Tesla, right? If Uber has a fleet of self-driving Teslas, you know Tesla's going to have it. What if they have a fleet of self-driving Fords? Why doesn't Ford have it? All right, so keep that one in mind. Nonetheless, Uber shares actually lower now by a few pennies. We're coming back for the open folks markets in red territory.

You're looking at an S&P right now. Negative by 16 points, trading at 45.98. A little bit of a sell-off coming into the opening bell from about midnight. You're up there at 46.18. A little bit of volatility last night coming into the close. You talk about an acceleration up to 46.17 and just like that we're trading back right near those lows of yesterday afternoon. We'll see if we can hold it as we get negative price. The Dow actually climbs back in positive territory in the open. Check out that acceleration. Even since I came on the air, right, I was off almost 100 points when I started talking, man, you're positive by 10 right now, with the Russell reversing in negative territory. Russell, off by 8.10% as the Dow catches a little bit of a bid. We jump over to the dollar index right now, DXY just off the highs 102.25. That's putting a hurting on some of the commodities out there. Gold contract off $24 at 1985, somewhat back to the lows we had towards the end of last week in the gold contract. All right, jumping around to some of the other equities. The story yesterday right out there with Kevin Meyer and another executive being brought back so it would be interesting here. They had talked to and I remember even Kevin Meyer I wonder if they want to bring back these guys. So it was talked about that they're bringing these guys back as consultants, right, how to write the ship, maybe even to talk about what to do with the SBN, how to manage that content. Both of them were brought back at Disney, passed over for Chappick and they run, I believe it's Candle Media company, they own Moonbug, they own some children's properties, they own Coco Mellon, they own Blippi, they own some other ones as well, wildly successful kids characters, they've merchandise all of that, they've sold the rights to that, to Netflix, to different companies. And I remember that Meyer was talking about, I believe a while back and this guy's always fascinated me because he was kind of at the helm of Disney Plus when they started putting that together and they ended up going with the Parks Guy Chappick versus going for even maybe Meyer he jumped ship and became the CEO of TikTok, that turned into a political football that really wasn't what he imagined their company, Candle Media, I think it's backed by Blackstone, BlackRock nonetheless if he was going to be CEO of Disney I think one of the only ways that happens is that if Disney potentially buys the company that he has that he runs right now and so it would be interesting to see if that even comes out and if it does that would be a bonus for Disney, I'm telling you folks some of these brands is nothing like Disney but it is amazing how kids in my house and I've seen them everywhere flock to some of these brands they've had and boy they've picked up some of the best brands out there on YouTube and I tell you folks, just like adults there is outstanding programming out there on YouTube, that's where like this whole podcast deal is blown up, right? There's just free content everywhere that people like in the form of podcasts, in the form of YouTube shows, kids are the same exact way man, they don't need NBC or CBS or ABC or Fox to produce them something spectacular when there are so many creators out there that are producing content that they enjoy even more so whether it's YouTube, I mean TFNN is on YouTube, if you're out there listening you know exactly what I'm talking about because you're probably listening on YouTube or you're in a tiger stand or you've listened on YouTube at some point in the past point being, so Disney you're an 88 box man long term now, you really want to go long term on this, okay? When my brain goes you get some big pull backs, you're basically at the COVID lows which is remarkable technically you got to like, you're back against the wall man you're basically back at COVID lows, you're right back where you started the year at after being at 86 up to 120 you're backing off to 88, you got Iger back in there, you got Kevin Meyer back in there now I better learn how to pronounce his name and make sure I'm saying it correctly the next part of that conversation right is where are their movies now just recently in June I think it was last month, yeah June and so this is Iger, this is part of the reorganization, okay organized a huge swath of their release dates now the only thing I'll say here is they are subject to the Hollywood strike and if this becomes a big problem all of these dates are moot, it doesn't even matter because they're all getting pushed back, okay so consider that for what it's worth but where my brain went to immediately, now this is some of the revisions, okay, as in you had Captain America was going to be May of next year, they're now pushing that back to July 26th okay, they got an alien movie coming out next year this is all Disney releases and these are the changes they made last year so we're going a little big picture you got the markets at 4600 man, okay, you want to be invested, it's important to find some sound companies Disney has been an under performer for some time now, but you see the problem when you buy over performers like Uber going into earnings and they crushed it, Uber crushed it, okay and they're flat to lower this morning even with the freight miss, okay, they crushed it for sure, first quarter they're profitable, all that, but it's baked in you might have to go out a couple years, alright where you want to be, here's my opinion where you want to be right now on this timetable for Disney, so maybe you don't have to buy them just yet maybe you look for it to find a bid before you get into it, okay get in there when you got some Star Wars movies, man the last time I think Star Wars came out was like 2019, do you know that 2019 was the last time a Star Wars came out okay, and you got Deadpool in 2004 you got a Blade movie, you got a Fantastic Four movie comes out May of 2025 Avatar 3 is going to be at the end of 2025 that's potentially a big one there and then what do you got man, you got Star Wars May of 2026, you got another Star Wars December of 2026, so in the span of 12 months from December 2025 to December 2026 you're going to get the next instalment of Avatar and you're going to get two Star Wars movies and we haven't seen one since 2019 that's going to be quite a run for Disney man, when they put it together yeah, we got this Captain America middle of 2024 they got a Fantastic Four movie middle of 2025, but you can see Deadpool 3, that should probably be a big one middle of 2024, so what are going to be the big ones next year, Captain America Deadpool 3 that's all that jumps out man, to me, versus you go to Avatar 3 you got an Avengers movie in 2026, you got two Star Wars movies in 2026 you got another Avengers movie in the beginning of 2027 and then they even got Avatar 4 and 5 slated for 2029, 2031 but that's an area that they're going to crush you to the box office man there's nothing like Disney, there's nothing like Star Wars and they got two films slated for the same year, when you really haven't had a Star Wars in forever, and that's probably one of their biggest franchises, when you think about the ability to put out a box office film that can crush a billion dollars at the box office I know what I'll try and find right now too let me see in 2019 check this out, okay look at these articles man in 2019 this is just cherry picking a Google okay, this is an end of 2019 article written about the fact that Disney banked 13 billion dollars in the box office in 2019 how'd they do that well they had a Star Wars towards the end of the year okay, they had an Avengers they had Lion King, Captain Marvel Toy Story 4 Frozen 2 so this is what they have the potential to do 7 billion dollar movies is what Disney had that year in 2019 I'm not sure they'll hit 7 again but for some context towards the end of 2019 folks on Disney shares okay, that was their run it was a perfect combination of everything the stock shot up to 152 that was their big banner year they also announced the plans for Disney Plus you were trading at 112 before they even announced those plans you trade up to 203, we're at 89 bucks so keep those on your calendar as we took a little deep dive on Disney, we'll take a look at some of the other companies with their numbers already, we'll be right back you might think that if you want to be successful at trading

under the symbol VGZ folks I got a chart here of Amazon Amazon pulling back a bit we're off about half a percent we jump over to the S&P right now off about 12 percent interesting article over here from Bloomberg talking about the FAA approves the largest uncrewed aircraft system in the US this is what I talk about man you start going out a year two years three years just go out to where Tommy's going to be 16 years old man the year 2037 what's it going to be like okay because in the year 2023 we're going to have basically planes flying around that are uncrewed drones yeah I was talking to Landon who's six and Tommy who's two of course the other day and saying I was explaining that you know they're probably going to have self-driving he's saying he was saying they're going to have self-driving cars I said man they're probably going to have self-driving planes by the time you're 20 years old 15 years from now they're probably going to have self-driving planes they're probably just going to be drones we have a drone right we fly the drone around in the backyard all they got to do is make the technology a little bit bigger a little bit more reliable a little bit safer put some people in there and you got self-driving drones all over the world okay but nonetheless they got it done in terms of this company an electric aircraft startup received approval from the FAA to operate its uncrewed zero emissions so there's zero emissions there's no driver no pilot at all and it's a commercial vehicle the aircraft called Pelican Spray it's highly automated it's 1100 pounds it's a crop sprayer okay it would make sense this is where you come in first you're not putting people up there just yet you're not even flying long destinations over long places you're flying over fields you're spraying some crops they currently lease their battery operated aircraft to agricultural and crop spraying companies in Costa Rica Honduras and Brazil they spray pesticides and fungicides for crops like bananas cotton soya corn with FAA approval in place it plans expanding to farms in the US getting FAA authorization for a passenger aircraft is a long and difficult process and a significant hurdle for the electric aviation industry the main challenge to electrifying commercial passenger aviation though is the limitations of battery technology that make it infeasible to fly any meaningful distance with multiple passengers on board for context this small uncrewed crop sprayer needs to land every 15 minutes anyway to refill their chemical tanks which is also when their batteries are swapped they carry up to 540 pounds of liquid pretty cool though so think about it we've got drone vehicles they're going to be up there spraying all the crops zero emissions in there as well it's an electric vehicle and you've got to say where does the elect where do all the batteries come from how do you say zero emissions it's zero emissions because it's an electric vehicle yeah interesting nonetheless man the future is a wild thing despite the current challenges 20 years from now in which electric aircrafts run regional short-haul flights and those powered fleets operate long-haul flights the world is coming man get ready for it alright what else have we got up here yeah we talk a little bit of heat let's talk a little bit of Pfizer out with their numbers beat on earnings but revenue misses Covid product sales plummet shouldn't be surprising there they pivot away from that Covid vaccine and Covid antiviral drug plax Paxlovoid while the world emerges from the pandemic yeah so we jump over to Pfizer numbers they were pretty much unchanged on their numbers as Uber has actually pulled back yeah Pfizer down about a half a percent on their numbers it's been quite a pullback for them though we pull up the weekly yeah check it out right for this year 52 bucks to 36 quite the rise to 61 dollars yeah those vaccines becoming available what beginning at 22 beginning at 2021 end of 2020 something like that quite a historic run and then they give it all back man up to 36 bucks on Pfizer and we do jump back to Uber yeah we're gonna give it up off almost 4 percent man there's a 10 minute chart we open and we trade lower by 2 bucks continue into trade lower as I mentioned strong numbers on Uber but they were worried about the freight part of their business for sure and I wonder if anyone's worried about that food delivery business as well if things really get cramped in the economy alright we get some volatility in the markets we jump over to the VIX right now VIX actually pairing that volatility on the open but we got a 14 handle at 1401 as the market's trading a little bit lower and folks tomorrow it's a big day at TFNM Larry Pezzavento

August here nobody really knows why they're all trying to figure out why that might be the case from years past maybe it's because nobody had air conditioning right maybe it's because of this reason that nonetheless kids going back to school in Florida man in Massachusetts yeah you probably got another month right when's Labor Day I believe September 4th this year September 4th which is almost

Ford right now you're up by 810% of the article jumping over here you got Ford they're going to restart that F-150 lightning production demand jump six-fold after they cut their prices in July the battle is on in EVs man I was also reading an article I think on the program recently right talking about that larger EVs are coming to market the biggest SUV yeah I was talking about it because myself I'm looking potentially for a three-row vehicle that's what they were talking about electric vehicles they're coming with big vehicles man which Americans love the only big three-row SUV that's been on the market for electric vehicles has been a Mercedes at 105,000 that's about to change in the next year and the price war is going to be on I'm sure as they try and get into market for the Ford F-150 and markets we get the Dow catch and a bid beyond that S&Ps right now negative by 10 you jump back to Uber shares down about 4% on their numbers for Uber shares and yeah finishing up the conversation I've been talking about those student loans it's interesting so many articles popping up that basically say the same thing I saw this one on Bloomberg this morning I said is that the old article is that the article I've read before no this is just another article out this morning by one writer Janet Lauren talking about same exact deal man 28 million borrowers will soon need to restart payments they put it in some interesting perspective though in terms of how much money this actually is you're talking about 28 million borrowers that's all going to begin October 1st many borrowers were assigned new loan servicers some of the biggest companies out there quit the federal program when nobody was paying probably then you had the whole failed attempt to forgive that debt that went to the supreme court right you got people in there who don't even say they don't even know what servicers providing their loan anymore and then they compare it to the size of the bank 1.64 trillion in outstanding federal loans 90% of the borrowers saw their payments pause so that's 1.5 trillion dollars of debt that's been paused okay that would rank as the fifth biggest bank in assets in the country so imagine that you get the fifth biggest bank in the country they've paused 1.5 trillion dollars of loans for three years and it's all starting back that's going to matter man so keep that one on your radar and that begins October 1st so I say maybe the end of the year maybe holiday season a little tight as we go forward thanks for starting the day off folks don't forget about Larry he's starting tomorrow but stay tuned our man


Okay, good afternoon. Also the large crowd in the back. I guess they have bad batteries or something or it's electricity Yeah, my presentation is from the browser. It's five links in five minutes They're all related to web ODF, but the last one involves cats and well That should be very interesting to everybody The first one is viewer.js. Why is it called viewer.js? Because it's a program called viewer.js Which basically is an ODT, a PDF, an ODP viewer, which you can add into your web page with only one line of HTML and Well, you can use it to go full screen. I assume this means yes. It means no So this one Yeah, so this is the first part, the first link. What is web ODF? I guess most people might have wrote from it already It's basically an ODF viewer and editor in written purely in JavaScript, which you can run in any browser So why is this cool? It means you have a completely client-side JavaScript ODF editor, so it's very easy to deploy across your whole organization Anybody on the web You can get access to editing your files if you want to very easily It's completely safe because it runs in the browser. So assuming your browser is safe, it is safe There's no conversion loss. We had a lot of talks here about how to deal with People editing alternatively in Word, in LibreOffice, in Word, in LibreOffice again And what goes wrong. Now if you have an editing where you go from LibreOffice to Web ODF to LibreOffice to Web ODF You will lose guaranteed nothing because LibreOffice only touches what it actually edits and every XML element which is in there, it will completely keep Yeah, it's smaller fast. It is smaller than the average document. So What's not to like? Well, we've existed since 2010. If you go to GitHub, you can see we're very active The viewer just you're looking at it now I'm just gonna skip through these slides. Since the version 0.5 released a couple of months ago We have a very convenient component for editing. It's also It's very easy to reuse in your application Web ODF is used in a commercial closed source application as well This is a desktop application for doing research papers and the people there said, yeah We want to use this JavaScript library simply not because it's JavaScript But because it's very nicely cross cross platform and it's easy to bundle with our application Web ODF also bundled with the latest own cloud and then you can have collaborative real-time editing which I'll be there with demoing shortly I'm gonna skip this slide as well because I want to do five links in five minutes Which might to prove to be tricky. So what's the second link? This is our editor If you go to a web page, you can see this editor as well. You just click on it You can open documents in it and start editing. There won't be uploaded to any server They just be edited in your browser at that point and you can save them back again Yeah, this is just an example of A document. It's quite simple Well, this document is about an animal hospital. It might be related to the cats later, but I don't know exactly yet So the last link also the third link is collaboration we made a small collaboration server here I loaded some legal office documentation in it and I see that are quite a number of Unknown authors here already who are checking out this document Not sure if they've been editing stuff as well. Who is in this document? Can you put your hand up one guy? Oh I don't know who do you call the other and the other anonymous guys are I see they haven't been Somebody has been typing some nice stuff. No advertisements yet. I've seen worse in live demos Okay, two more links to go. I hope I'm making it split screen. What's split screen? This is what we used to do debugging of collaborative editing. Basically, I have two documents here I can go edit on this side And you'll see immediately that it's also happening on the other side I can put a network delay in here of one millisecond to make it faster Or I can put a whole second in and Yeah, so that this is just What we are using to do or edit our testing now Ideally you would edit you would edit testing with more than one person, but developers are Usually it lonely. They're sitting alone behind the machine. So we have a virtual cat which will help us to have unexpected behavior Like a patient. Oh, there it is So, yes Here on the left and right side. We have cats walking across the keyboard and messing up the document Yeah, okay, thank you


The standardization activity that was taken up by International Telecommunication Union for telecommunications to bring about the next generation networks revolution. So we must appreciate the vision of ITUT and then we also would look at how the service providers need to get up to embrace the NGN revolution. The ITUT 2004 document titled General Overview of NGN, it provides a mechanism how NGN can be established. In the first release voice over IP is addressed and in the second release the IP television is addressed. Now we'd quickly go over and enumerate all the aspects of NGNs that ITUT thinks are relevant to the realization of NGNs. The first one is that every data type, every service must be provided through a packet. Then there should be a provision to isolate the control functions. We can also call it the control plane between the bearer which is providing the service, the call and session management and the application and service part. It means now the call establishment has to be executed through a coordinated effort between the end hosts and the intermediate devices. The services that are provided by NGN must be decoupled from the transport layer or the transport stratum specifically which carries such traffic. And then open interfaces should be defined for these services to be provided on any transport platform. The services and applications which are provided on NGNs should be modular in nature so that if you want to make a mix and match for real time non real time services for instance multimedia you are able to do so. Such flexibility is one of the most dominating goals and aspects of the NGNs. NGNs rely heavily on the provisioning of broadband internet access. It means the broadband capabilities should be provided with some kind of quality of service gradation and it should also be visible and transparent to the end user. The backward compatibility for NGNs is a requirement because the telecommunication companies which are going to provide NGNs also need their existing infrastructure and services to be available. There is a need for mobility to be provided in the form of either local mobility within a campus, city mobility or international mobility what we call as roaming. So another important aspect that is for ITU NGNs. Then each user should be at liberty to choose the internet service provider of its own liking. Multiple identifications for different services should be translatable onto an IP address and vice versa. The services which are used by the user should have unique attributes and characteristics so that it is distinguishable to the user from other services. These services which are either provided on fixed broadband or mobile broadband should be converged. That is the user should see these and use these services in an agnostic manner. The service related functions should be made independent of the underlying technologies because if you make them hard bound together then the system goes inflexible. So naturally it is a very important requirement. And from the sender end the first mile or the last mile on the receiver end should be allowed to be changeable so that if the user has access to a certain technology the user should still be able to avail these NGN services. And lastly all these aspects which are related to governance for instance emergency communication the security and privacy laws of that particular state should also be ensured that they are implemented in the NGN architecture. Now where do the telecommunication companies come in? The telecom operators are the lifeline of the services which have long been provided in the form of voice, video, data, audio, etc. These ISPs make huge investments either on the exercise, the core or in the transit networks as well. So it means that any NGN migration and realization has to take into consideration the overall cost benefit that these telcos are going to make. And the responsibility on the telcos would be to get their infrastructure standardized so that these are ready to embrace NGN revolution. Of course once there is a standardization then the designing of these telcos to cater for certain services and subsequently the management, ongoing management would be an ongoing process. Thank you.


Hey guys, how are you doing? This is your boy Rich, your host with the most from Rich TV live in Mexico, live in Mexico. And we've got big breaking news here giving you an update on all the markets, recession concerns mount global stocks tumble then rebound. The Dow Jones did finish in the red, NASDAQ finished in the green and the S&P 500 also finished in the green to start off the beginning of quarter three. Tesla initially falls after Q2 delivery results, but regains and finishes green. So a couple of stocks for you to keep your eye on. First and foremost, Occidental Petroleum OXY, one of the plays that Warren Buffett is very interested in and invested in, given a buy rating with oil prices down might present a good trade opportunity. Always do your own due diligence and let us know what you think here at Rich TV. A sell target given on Carnival Cruise Line CCL with travel leisure sector still struggling and continues to underperform it might cause more of a downturn for the sector. Do your due diligence, and we'd love to share your thoughts with us. Now let's take a look at some financial calendar news in Canada, OPEC meetings, building permits month over month. Excellent gauge of future construction activity because obtaining a permit is among the first steps in constructing a new building. All right, in America, factory orders month over month is a leading indicator of production, rising purchase orders, signals that manufacturers will increase activity, they work to fill the orders. Now let's talk about cryptocurrency news. Yesterday, the total market cap broke through the 862 billion upper range high and has gone up to the 900 billion resistance where the market cap has been rejected. Currently, the market cap has dropped down to 870 billion. There is no clear direction at the moment as to which the market cap will play out in the short term to the downside. There is major support at 834 billion with resistance above 900 billion. Make sure to sign up to Rich TV.io for our emails and alerts and get a deep dive analysis and breakdown of the charts 24 hours a day, seven days a week. Now let's talk about Bitcoin. Bitcoin actually trading right now, just over $20,000. If it can hold that 19,122 mark, then we can see it being bullish and going back potentially to 21,435 area, which usually starts to see resistance and selling pressure around that level. So let's take a look at the trade in between range. If it breaks below 19,122, then we believe it's going to be bearish. Now let's take a look at the price of Bitcoin. So if Bitcoin breaks down below that 19,122 mark, then it's going to be bearish most likely and we could see it drop all the way down to that 17,900 level again. So you could take a short position. If you see it becoming bearish, always do your own due diligence and make sure you are taking the best possible trade. Now let's take a look at the Bitcoin chart. I'm going to share a screen right now and take a look at the Bitcoin chart. Here we go. So this is the Bitcoin daily chart. You can see it has been as low as $1981 and has been as high as 20,475 and we're currently trending up right now. We're trending up looking very bullish the second currently at 20,447. So looking pretty bullish right now be very interesting to see if we're going to be able to hold this range. Now let's also take a look at Ethereum. I will look at the charts on the Ethereum. First of all, Ethereum has been trading between the 1,030 zone and the $1,200 zone. I think it can stay above the 1,030 zone. It might go bullish again and give an opportunity for at least the 10% gain up close to the 1,200 zone. If it breaks the 10,030 zone on the way down, it could present a bearish opportunity or a short trade opportunity down to the 890 zone where typically it starts to get support and buying pressure. Remember to go and sign up to richTV.io to learn how to trade cryptocurrency stocks, NFTs, and so much more. Now let's take a look at the Ethereum chart. So this is the Ethereum chart right here. This is the Ethereum chart here. So you can clearly see the Ethereum chart now at 1,155. So a little bit kind of in that middle between the bearish zone and the bullish zone. So remember what we said. If it goes above that 1,200 zone, then it's looking to be pretty bullish. However, it gets resistance in that level. So be careful for selling pressure and it's just sitting right now at 1,154. So it's kind of in the middle of the zone that we're talking about closer to the bullish zone than the bearish zone, but it's going to be interesting to see if we can break that 1,200 mark.

Mi yw Dr Nicola Canale. I'm an educational psychologist. I work as part of a parenting team supporting parents of children in the early years as part of Cardiff Early Help. I'm also a mum of two young, lively, spirited boys, so everything I talk about today is being tried and tested at home as well. Today I'm going to be talking about children's behaviour in the early years, how we can perhaps understand those behaviours in a bit more detail and how we can respond to those behaviours. In the early years it's really common for children to get overwhelmed by big emotions. Their brains are still developing, their nervous systems are still developing, so we see lots of behaviours that we as parents can find tricky to manage sometimes such as hitting, throwing, biting, shouting, refusing to follow instructions, so if we give a child a blue plate when they were expecting a yellow plate you can see some of these big emotions spilling over and some of these behaviours. I think parenting children in the early years is a difficult job and it can be quite tricky and quite stressful at times. Children's behaviour is very linked to their stage of development. We know that the brain is developing very rapidly in the early years and that some of the behaviours particularly young children display is outside of their control so these big emotions can really take over and I think one of the traps we can fall into as parents is thinking that some of these behaviours are manipulative or they're acting out in a way to get their own way before they're actually capable of doing that and I think one of our jobs as parents, as adults is to actually help children to develop these skills so they can have a little bit more control over these behaviours but that takes a long time and that's still really developing in the early years. Like any other skill that we help children develop in the early years like reading or riding a bike we're also trying to help them develop what we call self-regulation skills so this is that skill to be able to perhaps control and manage some of those big emotions and some of those behaviours but that takes time and it's dependent on quite a few factors really you have the child's temperament so some children are more easy going and laid back and other children can be a bit more sensitive or spirited so that plays a big role but one of the biggest environmental factors that plays a role in developing children's self-regulation skills is their interactions with their parents or their caregivers or other adults really we need to think about ways when we're faced with these big behaviours these big emotions we need to think of ways to respond into those in ways that not only help us with those behaviours but also help the children to develop these self-regulation skills and of course the other way the children learn self-regulation skills is by watching and observing the adults around them and we call this modelling so Dr Dan Siegel has come up with a very visual way of helping us understand what's happening in a child's brain and when we see these big feelings and big emotions overwhelm them so he calls this the hand model of the brain and he talks about how the brain can be looked at with regards to this hand model so if we think of the palm here as the oldest, most primitive part of the brain which is responsible for things we don't think about heart rate, temperature our fight or flight response and then you've got the thumb as this limbic area of the brain we call this the emotional part of the brain this is the part of the brain responsible for big feelings like fear, sadness, anger and then finally as humans we've evolved this thinking part of the brain which is this prefrontal cortex which is responsible for things like planning, organising being able to think before we react now when these big feelings overwhelm us we do what Dan Siegel calls flipping the lid where the thinking part of the brain becomes really disconnected from this emotional part of the brain he also calls this the upstairs and the downstairs brain so the upstairs brain becomes disconnected from the downstairs brain now as adults if we flip our lids we've developed skills to be able to bring that thinking part of the brain back in line with the emotional part of the brain however for young children if they flip their lids they need adult help to bring this part of the brain the thinking part of the brain back with the emotional part of the brain and for it to work together again and when children have developed these skills over time with adult support that's when they are able to self-regulate we can explain the difference between a tantrum and a meltdown thinking about Dr Dan Siegel's hand model of the brain so if we think about a tantrum where a child is perhaps demanding something or whining or repeating something over and over again we know that for older children they can be throwing what's known as an upstairs brain tantrum and this is where the thinking part of the brain is still integrated with the emotional part of the brain and they are just acting out in a way to have maybe what they want we know this is usually an upstairs brain tantrum because if we give them what they want that behaviour stops quite quickly now for younger children particularly very young children they are not really capable of throwing these types of tantrums or upstairs brain tantrums because we know their brain isn't well developed enough to be able to do that with younger children what they are usually having is what we call a downstairs brain tantrum or a meltdown where the thinking part of the brain has disconnected from the emotional brain so they have flipped their lids and they are very overwhelmed by these big feelings so they're in something that we sometimes call as emotional flood and I think again part of our role is to help calm them bring them back to a state of calm before we can actually respond to that behaviour How we respond to children's behaviours can really illuminate this difference between punishment and discipline If we are using punishment to try and change behaviours we might be able to achieve that through fear or shame and it would give us perhaps a quick fix with regards to changing children's behaviours but they might not lead to any longer lasting changes they wouldn't really help support children's social emotional behaviour development and they could actually impact really on children's self-esteem If we are using discipline and we think about the word discipline comes from the Latin to teach it can be a longer process it can take lots of practice to help children develop these positive behaviours but it will lead to those longer lasting changes and also at the same time it will help develop children's social emotional and behavioural development and it will also increase their self-esteem which is a win-win situation for parents and children Kim Goldin has developed an approach to parenting that she calls the two hands of parenting so she talks about the two hands of parenting and what she talks about is this one hand provides the connection so this is the warmth the interaction the loving interactions between children and their caregivers and the other hand correction this is the hand that provides the boundaries the routines, the structure that young children also need Kim Goldin has devised seven steps to connection with correction and in my work with parents we've adapted this to call it the seven C's of responding to behaviours so the first step is just to clock it just to notice what's happening do you need to step in to make the environment safe is it just some low level behaviour that you can just distract or ignore so step two is really important is to calm yourself to check whether your lids flipped or whether you were feeling regulated and able to respond to what's happening in front of you you might need to take five deep breaths if there is someone else in the house you might need to call on them for support but it's about calming yourself first so that you're able to respond to the situation instead of react so the third C is to calm your child is your child drowning in an emotional flood have they flipped their lids and do they need your help to calm every child is different every child is unique so you will know as a parent what helps them calm some children like a touch or a hug other children need a little bit of space and you sit nearby to help them calm the fourth C I think is one of the most important things we can do as parents or adults when we're trying to help children with their behaviours the fourth C is curiosity if we can be curious about some of the underlying reasons as to why our child is behaving in this way it gives us lots of clues as to how to prevent those things happening again in the future but also how to manage and respond to that behaviour given time so one of the things we think about is as parents being like deep sea divers so if we've got an iceberg with some of those challenging behaviours on the tip of the iceberg like shouting or screaming or hitting out we need to go under the water there and have a look at some of those emotions and needs that are driving those behaviours so a really helpful acronym to think about with children in the early years is HALT so HALT stands for hungry angry lonely or tired is there any of those needs that need to be met or is that contributing to some of those behaviours it can be really helpful in ways to respond to those behaviours but the fifth C is connect so even if we are very good at being curious about the underlying causes to those behaviours that have been met needs we sometimes forget to actually tell the child that or say that out loud so if we think a child is tired we can say I can see you're tired now therefore maybe we should put these away and go and have a rest or I can see you're really sad because I've said no more biscuits we'll have another one tomorrow so it's really saying out loud connecting that emotion behaviour and this really helps children to develop their social emotional development also helps them to self-regulate in the future so the sixth C is correction so this is where that second hand of parenting comes in do we need to provide at this point when we've calmed our child do we need to provide an age appropriate consequence so for example if you've hurt your brother with the toy, the toy is going away or you put your wellies on or no park, the choice is yours so children still need those boundaries and those age appropriate consequences at times the seventh C is to connect again so you bring back that other hand of parenting the connection once you've put that consequence in and you've stuck to that you then reconnect with your child maybe through a cuddle or reading a story together but you don't keep going back to that behaviour and what happened you'll be like Elsa and let it go


Well, I guess I've gotta do one. A lot of you guys who have watched my videos know my decisive, constructive, critical thoughts of the recent season of Supernatural. I made a video talking about Andrew Dab, his past, his credits for the show, and kind of what has driven him to make the decisions that he's done so far over the last three seasons. I did a scathing review of the season its entirety. I just pointed out that this is a little bit hard to say, but it is entirely true. The fan base of Supernatural have twisted the show in a way that the writers can't really construct anything that is actually a critically well-written piece because what the fans have demanded more than anything else is fan service. Whether it makes sense or not, whether it is retconning or not, whether it actually even works in the story or not, they have demanded this. And to be honest, I don't feel bad talking ill about the majority of the Supernatural fan base. When the show was announced that it was going to end with season 15, Misha Collins, Jensen Ackles, and Jared Padalecki all did a video saying that the show was coming to an end. You could tell on their faces plain as day that they were so torn with this decision. Despite the fact that they had worked on this thing for 15 years, a good quarter of their life had been spent on this. They were probably one board of doing the same thing, no matter how enthusiastic they would say about it, but at the same time they realized just how big of a fan base they've created, how much they've worked with charity groups and support groups through their show. So you could tell when they said that it was coming to an end, while they didn't want to, they did, but they didn't at the same time. And what happens within literal days of this announcement? Fans rushed to petition.org or other garbage sites and immediately start putting up petitions saying this shouldn't be the last season of Supernatural. We should have another season. We should have five more seasons. This show shouldn't end. We the fans deserve more of this show.  We the fans deserve. So what?   It's honestly one of the most ignorant and lazy sentences and sayings I've heard in the fan base in a long, long time.  There are people who can say that there's no problems with the show when there clearly is. I will disagree with both of you very much so, but I will allow you to have an opinion as long as you can well construct it. But these people, these we deserve, these are honestly the scum of the earth in my opinion.  You know how incredibly amazing that is even though I don't like this show as much as I used to, even though it is not as good as it used to be. That is a feat that is impossible to reach.  You don't deserve anything.  These people worked tireless weeks, barely getting any social time whatsoever, working long into the night.  So if any of you think you deserve it, if any of you sign those petitions, I honestly say you should be ashamed with yourself. By God, you really need to prioritize what you need in your life. Okay, so aside from that very, very harsh opening, what do I feel will happen in season 15? It's kind of a mix of what I want to happen, what I hope happens, and what I actually think will happen.  If not, he's going to make this such a giant fan service machine that the continuity of this show is about to be thrown out the window. You know how a bunch of people are complaining right now about how Daenerys has changed in the recent episode of Game of Thrones almost makes no sense that her character change was so quick that it had no proper padding to make that make sense?  And somehow y'all people think that God turning evil in 20 minutes is still sustainable writing. I'm interested to see if God was compelled or altered or that's not really him or something because it just doesn't make sense for him to just do this. Also I'd love to know how on earth certain entities that have been literally destroyed from existence are coming back. Creatures and ghosts and whatnot that the brothers destroyed. I'd love to know how these things have just reappeared. Like I know God can bring people back but you've got to explain how these monsters are coming back too. You can't just do it again fan service, overwriting actual good storytelling. I would love for the bunker to get destroyed. The bunker must, must be destroyed. There is going to be no sense of urgency in this show in its final season. If this is a war for the world, war for the universe, the old war for basically the end of times, they shouldn't be able to go back to the bunker and chill. That should be destroyed or overrun or whatever in the first few minutes. Speaking of the first few minutes I'm going to love to see how they get out of this. Because if you guys noticed on the very last frame, Misha, Jared, and Jensen don't do anything. They literally let the zombies like just hug them. Misha literally stands there with his hands down and then just at least the brothers were pretending to swing these metal things. We have to have a reasonable excuse of how these guys get out of the situation. I very much doubt we're going to get one unless some Deusak Makna sort of creature is going to come and save them. Which very well could be. Billy could save them. Jack could come back. I swear if he comes back right off the bat, that's three revivals for this character in less than 30 episodes.  Less than 20 episodes. As for the fan service ideals, what's happening with these monsters coming back, make them work properly. Don't just shoehorn a man. You can kind of have it as an aspect of in season 4 or was it season 4 or season 5 where the ghosts of the dead were coming back. Like for instance, the bank robber guy with laser eyes are Meg, the woman who was possessed, the first possession of Meg. She came back to haunt Dean, right? Remember this was sort of the idea of, no this other thing, this was fine. This was the one of the first few showings of the apocalypse happening. Ghosts of fallen people who have been wronged come back. So do that aspect with the monsters. Have them as a narrative function. Don't just have them appear just to the sake of appearing.  On the same note, you have to make this really hard. You have to make this literally be the end of the world. We just saw zombies and everything rise. This is worse than what it was the peak of the apocalypse in season 5. So you've got to make this literally the end of times. So things have got to be going wrong every single episode. There can't be downtime. If there is a downtime, there has to be some form of maybe humor to it.  You could have that as a humorous aspect, but each episode should have peril.  But I honestly have no idea what the empty is doing because Castiel made that deal with the empty and then the empty said well we're gonna come back when you're at your worst. So I don't know. The whole empty stuff was purely poorly written. Speaking of poorly written, stop dropping storylines Andrew Dab. You have a consecutive narrative right here.  You have something that you can work with that can consecutively get you to the end. It is a straight path.  Forget about it and then bring it back when you feel like it.  There was that instant earlier in the in this season where Sam was like why are you giving up on us? And everyone was like oh such great acting. And everyone seems to forget that this has happened about seven or eight seasons before. Various, various seasons have done the exact same storyline so don't repeat the same garbage. But this is just my thoughts. I know this probably won't happen because that's not fan service ideal. That is not what the fans want. I am trying to suggest a critically well written storyline, but Dab doesn't seem to do that. However, I have heard that Jensen and Jared are much more attached to the writing and the story aspects of this season.  It will be. It will be horrible if it's just those two. Bringing some of the original writers are some of the original directors back. I'd love to see some of the original directors back. I'd love to see Kripke write an episode. I know he's working on a show called The Boys I think.  I would just love to see some of the OG people come back. Obviously we can't get all of them. There are some who either are just unavailable. Other some who aren't with us anymore, like the director Kim Manners. Oh, I'd love to see Kim Manners direct an episode again. We need to see this show to an end that makes sense and it can't just be a fan service train. It has to actually be a narrative train.  They have to figure out a way to trick him or they are going to figure out that he's wrong. The God aspect I actually don't have any clue of what they're going to do because nothing I can think of makes sense with the lore. I'm not going to think of a retcon way because I'm not going to give Dab an idea. But at least to say I don't know how narratively this will continue towards a satisfying conclusion that's not going to be a giant retcon. I hope I'm wrong. Personally, I really do hope I'm wrong.  Finally, for the ending, the brothers need to die. I thought about this and part of me thought about them driving off into the sunset and I like that idea. I do like that idea but the only thing is the only way that would work is if somehow they were able to kill every single monster on the planet. Oh no. Oh god is that going to be it? They're going to find some sort of MacGuffin spell that kills every single monster on the planet.  Right now I feel that we need some monsters to get rid of some officials in maybe Alabama and Georgia if you know what I'm saying. Aside from that though, I feel that the brothers should die. They should have to sacrifice themselves unless they do kill every single monster and demon and whatever on the earth. The brothers will just keep going. I don't know if that'll be a satisfying idea. I like the idea of them going off into the sunset just like literally in the Impala, driving off towards the sun and that's the end. I like that idea but I feel that the brothers dying in some heroic fashion and not coming back. I think that's even when Jared Padalecki thought that when he was originally kind of the idea is that they would die. Like that's the only way that this is going to end. But those are my thoughts. Those are my ideas of what I feel the season will end as. Let me know what you guys think. I'm very interested to see what people's opinions are but I definitely like that. That's one of my big things.  Aside from that make sure to check out the interview kind of discussion panel that I'm going to do with Jade Wei. I have her name of her YouTube account right here and I'm very much looking forward to that. We're going to be doing that interview discussion this Saturday so I don't know when she's going to put it up but I am much looking forward to that and I hope you guys enjoy that too. Anyways guys thank you for watching this video. This is the longest video I've done since I got out of the hospital but it was very nice to get these things off my chest because I just got the staples ripped out so that was fun. Anyways see you guys next time. Thanks for watching the video. It's been a while but I'm happy to say the click is finally getting back together in an all new movie thanks to a successful Kickstarter campaign but we are still asking for your support. You know Nits you can't get more money unless you offer questionable favors. Yeah guy unless of course those favors involve the ladies guy. By support I mean getting the word out guys. Oh well couldn't you find a better means than this guy? All he seems to talk about is supernatural or hold a coffee mug real awkward. Why didn't you ask a Kardashian or something? Yeah guy get in with the ladies guy. Hey he's trying to help out. Like you've been trying with Kimmy Burton? I've seen Jabba the Hutt finish a marathon faster.  To see any and all updates about the upcoming Undergrads movie be sure to check out and like the bring back Undergrads Facebook page and with any luck we'll see you guys soon.


Mr. Chairman, please welcome the President of the United States. Thank you very much. Thank you, Commander Earl Stock. And it's good to see here, Ladies Auxiliary President Joan Katkis. I've always said it's a pleasure and an honor to speak before a meeting of the veterans of foreign wars. You are the men who, from the Marne to the Bulge, from Okinawa to Omaha Beach, from the Chosin Reservoir to Hamburg or Hill, have defended America's heritage and fought for the freedom not only of our nation, but peoples all over the world. Today, as veterans, you are still defending freedom, whether it's supporting adequate defense budgets, or aid to the freedom fighters in Nicaragua, or teaching America's young people the meaning of our precious rights through your Voice of Democracy program. The members of the VFW are still on the front lines, still leading the charge, and still showing what true patriotism really means. That's why when you sound the bugle, this is one old rider in the horse cavalry who snaps to attention. As you may know, I returned last Thursday from a two-day visit to Europe where I met with the leaders of the other Western Allies, and I'll talk about that meeting in a moment. At another time, I might have liked to take a few more days over there, see some sights and maybe buy Nancy a few presents. But I had a meeting here in Washington I couldn't miss. I've told you this before, and it's true as ever. I'd travel halfway around the world to meet with the VFW. Let me say here's something that I regard as an obvious truth, but one that seems to need repeating. America owes a great debt to its fighting men, and it's a debt that our nation will carry as long as it lives. For without our fighting men, our nation would not live. That's why I don't understand those who would so easily forget. I'm speaking about those who would turn their backs on the men missing in action in Southeast Asia. We have a moral bond, as sacred as any a free people can make with one of their own, to close no books, write no last chapters, reach no final conclusions until we have the fullest possible accounting of every soldier, airman, aviator, marine, and civilian lost in Laos, Cambodia, or Vietnam. To you who came home, the Emergency Veterans Job Training Act I signed at your convention in New Orleans five years ago, and the new GI Bill I signed last June are the least we can do to show America's gratitude. And as you know, I believe we also should create a cabinet-level Department of Veterans Affairs. I've always found that Americans are deeply grateful to our veterans, even those Americans who aren't too good at showing it. This is my way of sliding into a story. While it doesn't concern an American veteran, it's about a great allied fighting man. It was during World War II, and British Field Marshal Montgomery had come to America to help spur the war effort. A dinner was held in his honor in Hollywood. Sam Goldwyn, one of the founders of MGM, was to toast Field Marshal Montgomery. And when the time came, Sam, who has a reputation for misspeaking, got up, waited for silence, and then after a few words said, I propose a toast to Marshal Field Montgomery. Well, Jack Warner was sitting next to Sam and tried to help, and he said, Montgomery Ward, you mean? Well, as I said a moment ago, I just returned from meeting with the leaders of our North Atlantic allies. And next year, the alliance marks its 40th anniversary. Its achievement has been simple and historic, 40 years of freedom and democracy in Western Europe and without armies clashing anywhere on the continent. Since the fall of Rome, more than 1,500 years ago, Europe has known few longer periods of total peace. Americans, including some of you, have helped keep that peace and preserve that freedom. As President Kennedy told our troops in Germany 25 years ago, millions sleep peacefully at night because you stand in this field. You know when I hear about peace marchers in Europe or here, I think of our young men and women in uniform. They're the real peace marchers. At the meeting last week, the Atlantic Alliance celebrated one of the great achievements of its history. More than a decade ago, without warning, without provocation, the Soviet Union challenged the strategic balance in Europe and stationed an entirely new level of weapon, one for which NATO had no fully effective deterrent, the in immediate range SS-20 nuclear missile. To keep the balance that keeps the peace, NATO had to meet this challenge and meet it NATO did. In 1979, it voted to deploy U.S. Intermediate Range nuclear forces. It also voted to press for a U.S. negotiation with the Soviets on this issue. Shortly after I came into office, I proposed that our negotiators should work for what we called the zero option, remove all U.S. and Soviet longer range INF missiles. You may recall that some of our critics said I couldn't be serious, that this was just a ploy to ambush arms control and put it out of commission for the duration. The Soviets said they would walk out of negotiations if we went ahead with deployment. Well, we did, and they did. But NATO stuck to its guns. In the face of heavy political fire, the leaders of NATO moved forward. Many faced demonstrations at home, and some of those demonstrations turned to violence. But eventually, after the missiles went in place, the Soviets returned to the bargaining table. And today we have the agreement our critics said was impossible, the zero option. Now, I can't think of any better demonstration of what you and I have been saying for years, that the road to peace is through American and free world strength, and no one should ever forget that you helped America stand its ground against the political assault here at home, and finally to take the hill in arms talk. Yes, once again you defended our nation's security, peace, and freedom. And now your support is needed on another front. I hope that you, the members of the VFW, will vigorously support ratification of the INF Treaty. By the way, let me just tell you, I wouldn't have signed that or any other agreement with the Soviets if I didn't believe we could effectively verify it. The networks have been having fun in the last few months playing clips of my statement just after I came to office, that the Soviets reserved themselves the right to lie and cheat for their own ends. They say I've changed. I've got news for them. If I trusted the Soviets, I wouldn't have insisted on the strict verification provisions that we have in this treaty, the toughest that have ever been adopted. Now, maybe they call that trust. Well, if so, it must be the kind of trust a sage meant when he said, trust everybody, but cut the cards. But something amazing has happened since Mr. Gorbachev and I signed the INF Agreement in Washington in December. In Europe and here at home, some of the very same people who told us not to deploy the Pershing II and ground-launched cruise missiles, who said we were being provocative and that our defense buildup in general was a step back in the safety of the world, these same people are now taking credit for the INF Agreement. They say that the agreement is a victory for what they've been calling for, cuts in defense, eliminating or scaling back vital weapons systems. What is a great general said once at the Battle of the Bulge? Nuts. The truth is just the opposite. This is not the time to drop our guard. It's time to look forward and ask what we must do to keep the peace not only in Europe but around the world. And the answer is the same as it's always been. Keep America and its allies strong. In Europe, this means continuing to modernize our remaining nuclear forces and modernizing our conventional forces as well, giving them what is called smart weapons that help even the odds against the much larger armies of the Warsaw Pact. It's just this simple. If we're going to put young Americans in harm's way, we owe them the best weapons money can buy. Being America strategically strong means going forward as well with our research, development, and testing on a strategic defense against ballistic missiles. SDI is America's best guarantee that the Soviets will stick to their agreements in arms reductions. It's also protection against an accidental missile launch and against some madman who might take over a country that can get ballistic missiles. In short, as I've said before, it's an insurance policy, and we're not the first ones the agent has visited. The Soviets have been spending far more money developing strategic defenses than we have and have been doing it longer. In the last decade, they've poured roughly $200 billion into their programs. In two weeks, we mark the fifth anniversary of our strategic defense initiative, and in that time we've spent only $13 billion, less than 7 percent what the Soviets spent in the decade. To give you an idea of the magnitude of the Soviet efforts, they've assigned 10,000 of their top scientists and engineers to their military laser program alone. It'd be foolhardy not to pursue SDI, and that's why America must research, develop, and test SDI, and when it's ready, we must deploy it. Now that we have the INF Treaty, our negotiating priorities are a 50 percent reduction in strategic arms, a conventional arms balance in Europe, and an effective, verifiable, and truly global ban on all chemical weapons. We'll need to keep up our strength if we're to succeed, and that's why the Congress must not further reduce the defense budget. Not long ago, I saw a letter from your commander to members of Congress. He sent it following his recent visit to Central America, and I think he summed things up as well as anyone ever has when he said that in his words, the real issue before the Congress and the country is not the contras, it is communism in Central America.  The papers included a review of the situation in Central America, and in those papers it said the defeat of the contras would be a grave strategic defeat for the United States, especially if we take into account the geopolitical position of Central America. Well, the VFW understands this, the communists in Central America understand this, the Soviets understand this, it's time that Congress understood it too. A Soviet base on the American mainland is a pistol pointed at the heart of the Americas. During the first round of debate on aid to the freedom fighters a few weeks ago, one of the congressional leaders opposing aid said that, we shouldn't keep money flowing to the contras because for every dollar we gave them the Soviets would give the Sandinistas five. Well, he ought to remember something Pericles, the great leader of ancient Athens, said. The secret of liberty is courage. Too many of the opponents of aid to the freedom fighters claimed to be the heirs of Franklin Roosevelt, who told us when the odds are stacked against us that America had a rendezvous with destiny and then led us to the fight, and of Harry Truman, who helped Greece and Turkey stand up to communism and led us into NATO. You know, when I listened to the critics and their claims to be what FDR and Truman would be today, it reminds me of a time I was on the set of a movie that happened to involve Irving Berlin. As a matter of fact, it was called This Is The Army. I was already in the army, but some of us on active duty were sent back temporarily to be in that film, which as you all know, all the proceeds went to army emergency relief. Well, Irving Berlin, who had written that and who had written the first one in World War I, yep, yep, yeah, Hank, was on the set, and Irving asked if he couldn't play one part there because there was a flashback to World War I, and Irving wanted to sing his song, Oh How I Hate to Get Up in the Morning. Now he's a great writer of songs, not particularly a great singer of songs, and as we were filming that scene, and he and his World War I uniform was singing, one of the crew leaned over to me and whispered, if the fellow that wrote that song could hear this guy sing that he'd roll over in his grave. Courage hasn't exactly been the watchword of some opponents of contra-aid. Harry Truman said the buck stops here, but last week, aid opponents tried to pass the buck of responsibility for abandoning in the field the young men and women of the Democratic resistance, and that ploy failed as it should have. Now it's time for Congress to show that it knows you can't have real peace negotiations when one side has helicopter gunships and the other has bandages. Recently, Daniel Ortega has said he's going to crush the freedom fighters, and he has thrown out the peace mediator Cardinal Obando Ibrahimov. You know where Ortega stands. Isn't it time for Congress to have the courage to show where it stands? You better than anyone know that Americans have never lacked for courage. In the eve of the Second World War, an observer from another country said, most people think Americans love luxury and that their culture is shallow and meaningless. It's a mistake.  Those were the words of Japan's senior admiral in the war, Admiral Yamamoto, who added, Japan cannot beat America. In thousands of foxholes and trenches, cockpits and decks around the world, the American spirit of justice and the just fight, our love of freedom and devotion to the dignity of man have been the hope of millions for liberty and a better life. You more than anyone else know what courage it has taken. It was courage like that of Sergeant Howard Collette, whose bomber was hit over the Salabes, and as it plunged toward the Pacific, he was heard over the radio, reading aloud from his pocket Bible to his wounded comrades, calming them, comforting them as he and they fell to their final rest. On every continent and ocean in this century, Americans have left such stories. Courage is our mark. Human democracy, our gift to mankind. And you who know this so well, help us keep it that way forever. Thank you and God bless you.
