Now, Mr. Keene, tracer of Lost Persons. One of the most famous characters of American fiction in one of radio's most thrilling dramas. Tonight, the famous old investigator's case is entitled, The Abandoned Well Murder Case. Our scene is a deserted farm about 60 miles from New York. It's almost dusk and a middle-aged, well-dressed man with iron gray hair paces back and forth near an abandoned well. With mounting annoyance, he glances toward the overgrown shrubbery that surrounds the well. Conn founded it must be almost 7.30. I don't like to be kept waiting. What that devil can do? Who's that? Is that you? Well, it's about time you... You? What are you doing with that gun?  No! No, don't shoot! You've killed it. Well, here, Mr. Keene, are them papers on the Brennan case. All ready to file and mark closed. Yes, Mike, that was a difficult case. Now, perhaps it's time you and I took a few days' vacation. No fishing trip, or... Can I help you, ma'am? Are you Mr. Keene? No, I'm his partner, Mike Clancy. Oh, please, I must see Mr. Keene at once. I didn't phone for an appointment. Well, now, who are you, ma'am? I'm Mrs. Crane, Mrs. Rachel Crane. This is Mr. Keene right here. And how do you do, Mrs. Crane? Oh, Mr. Keene, I'm so upset, so frightened. Well, please, sit down and tell me what's the trouble. Thank you. Mr. Keene, my employer, Henry Kellogg, has been murdered. Your employer? Yes, sir. I'm his housekeeper at Hillview. That's Mr. Kellogg, the state about 60 miles from here. Ten years ago, he took me and my little daughter into his home and gave me a position as his housekeeper. No one could have been more kind, more sympathetic. Try to compose yourself, Mrs. Crane, and go on with your story. Well, Mr. Keene, the night before last, Mr. Kellogg left the house for his evening walk. When he didn't return by midnight, I became worried and called the local police. Yesterday afternoon, they found Mr. Kellogg's body at the bottom of an abandoned well on the farm next to ours. He'd been shot through the heart. St. Spraservus, you mean he'd been murdered and his body dumped into the well? Yes, Mr. Clancy. Oh, it was a horrible thing. Mrs. Crane, I assume the local police are investigating the murder. So why have you come to me? Because, Mr. Keene, unless you can help me, they'll probably arrest me for Henry Kellogg's murder. Why do you say that? Because I happen to know that he was leading me $20,000 in his will. After all, I've been working for him for 10 years. But last week, he told someone in town that he was discharging me. Discharging you? After 10 years of service as his housekeeper? What was the reason? Well, I can't imagine, Mr. Keene. Had you ever had a disagreement or a serious quarrel of any kind with Mr. Kellogg? No, no, nothing like that. Did he tell you he was going to discharge you? No, but he was a man of impulse, of sudden whims. Mr. Keene, you can see this puts me in a frightening position. The police will think I knew I was being discharged and that I murdered poor Mr. Kellogg before he had a chance to change his will. Well, a $20,000 inheritance could be a motive for committing murder. And another thing. The police found that the bullet that killed Mr. Kellogg was from a gun he kept on the estate. A gun which any member of his household might have gotten hold of. I see. Mrs. Keene, who else lives there on the estate? Just myself and my daughter Doris. She's a young woman now. She's 21 years old. Mr. Kellogg has no close relatives? Well, he has a nephew, Paul Kellogg, who lives here in New York. The police tried to reach him, but there was no answer at his apartment. I imagine he's at his cabin on Crystal Lake. Mrs. Queen, do you know if the nephew Paul Kellogg will inherit the bulk of Henry Kellogg's fortune? I know. Mr. Kellogg told me once that he intended to leave everything to charity. Everything that is except his bequest of $20,000 to you. Well, yes, Mr. Keene. And that's why I came to you. I beg you to find the real murderer so I can clear myself. Tell me, is there anyone else who might have had reason to murder your employer? Anyone who hated him possibly? Why? Yes, Mrs. Queen. There's Jasper Gibbs. He's an eccentric old man who used to own the farm next to Mr. Kellogg's estate. Two weeks ago, Mr. Kellogg foreclosed a mortgage on Jasper Gibbs' place. Jasper made all kinds of wild threats to get revenge. Indeed. Oh, but no one takes Jasper seriously. He's a harmless old crackpot. Well, we'll know more about that after Mike Clancy and I have talked to him. Oh, Mr. Keene, and you will help me. I swear to you, I had nothing to do with Mr. Kellogg's murder. I always admired him, and I was grateful for his kindness to me and my daughter Doris. Mike and I will be ready to drive you to the murdered man's home within the aisle, Mrs. Queen. I have a feeling that if we to find Henry Kellogg's murderer, there isn't a moment to lose. Here we are, Mr. Keene and Mr. Clancy. This is Mr. Kellogg's home. Well, sure, it's a mighty elegant place, boss. A real country estate. Yes, Mike. One would think it would require a staff of servants to run it. Mr. Kellogg didn't like a lot of people around. He... What is it, Mrs. Crane? Well, that car and the driveway. It's Mr. Paul's Roadster. You mean Henry Kellogg's nephew? Yes, sir. Oh, there you are, Mrs. Crane. Why, Mr. Paul, I didn't know you were here. I was up at my Lake Cabin.  Who are these gentlemen, Mrs. Crane? It's Mr. Keene and Mr. Clancy, the private investigators. Mr. Keene, this is Mr. Kellogg's nephew, Paul. Mr. Keene, I've often heard of you. How do you do, Mr. Kellogg? Glad to meet you, young fella. Please come into the house, gentlemen. This whole thing is shocking. But, Mrs. Crane, I had no idea that you'd gone into the city to bring Mr. Keene into the case. Doris didn't tell me. My daughter didn't know. Now, Mr. Keene, if you'll all excuse me, I want to put away my things and see where Doris is. Certainly, Mrs. Crane. Mr.  Five minutes ago, Mr. Keene. So, Mrs. Crane, the housekeeper has asked your help in solving Uncle Henry's murder. I suppose she's very worried the situation being what it is. Just what do you mean by that, Mr. Kellogg? Well, look at the spot she's in. After that quarrel with Uncle Henry, it's no wonder she's panicky. Quarrel? Sure, Mrs. Crane never mentioned any quarreled us, boss. No, Mike. She told us she and Henry Kellogg were on the best of terms. She didn't tell you of her threats against him? Threats? What threats, Mr. Kellogg? Suppose you tell us about that? Certainly, Mr. Keene. You haven't met Mrs. Crane's daughter, Doris. When you do, you won't find it difficult to understand how she captured poor old Uncle Henry's fancy. He wanted to marry Doris Crane. Marry her? Well, sure, and I thought your uncle, the murdered man, was in his fifties. He was, Mr. Clancy. And Doris Crane is 21.  You mean she disapproved? Disapproved. That's putting it mildly, Mr. Keene. She told Uncle Henry to stay away from her daughter. That she'd see him dead before she'd let Doris marry him. A man almost old enough to be Doris' grandfather. Well, sure, and I can't say that I blame the woman. A young, innocent girl like Doris Crane. Innocent? Mr. Clancy, one would hardly use that description of Doris Crane. She's as cold and calculating a female as you've ever met. Mr. Kellogg, were you here when the housekeeper, Mrs. Crane, threatened your uncle's life? Yes, I was, Mr. Keene. And how did Henry Kellogg react to it? Uncle Henry was very calm. But he said he intended to go right on doing what he felt was best. Then Mrs. Crane turned and left the room. I'll never forget the look of hatred in her eyes. Well, sure, and he never said a word to us, Mr. Keene, about her daughter being mixed up with the murdered man. However, Paul Kellogg has taken good care to mention it, haven't you, Paul? Doris, I didn't hear you come in. No, no. You were much too busy trying to cast suspicion on my mother. Uh, Mr. Keene, this is Doris Crane, the housekeeper's daughter. How do you do, Doris? This is my partner, Mike Clancy. Pleased to meet you. Mr. Keene, mother tells me she's asked your help in clearing her of suspicion in the murder. Well, she's going to need it with someone like Paul Kellogg spreading lies about her. Lies? One moment, please. Tell me, Doris, just what was your relationship with the murdered man Paul Kellogg? Well, I planned to marry him, Mr. Keene. He was head over heels in love with me. Of all the rotten luck for this to happen. You don't mind my saying so, Doris. You don't seem grief-stricken about the murder of the man you loved. I didn't say I loved Henry Kellogg. I wanted to be mistress of this estate. I wanted expensive clothes, jewels, and lots of money to spend. He could have given me those things. He never heard anything so cold-blooded. Cold-blooded? I'm simply being truthful, Mr. Clancy. Which is more than you can say for Henry Kellogg's nephew Paul. Just what is that supposed to mean? Why not tell Mr. Keene about your own relationship with your uncle? And just what was that relationship, Doris? Mr. Keene, Doris is making a mountain out of nothing. I'm perfectly willing to tell you that Uncle Henry and I never got along too well. In fact, two weeks ago he ordered you off the estate. Is that true, Mr. Kellogg? Yes, Mr. Keene, it's true. I told Uncle Henry right to his face that I thought he was a fool for wanting to marry Doris. A girl young enough to be his granddaughter. He ordered me to get out of the house. And I know that what Doris here is insinuating that I murdered Uncle Henry to get his money. I'm not so sure that you didn't, Paul Kellogg. That's a lie. You know very well I didn't.  No, Mr. Keene. I haven't a chance of getting a penny of it. I'm not even mentioned in his will. So I had no reason whatever to murder him. Oh! What? Since preserves. What was that? It's Mr. Keene. It's Mother. It came from a study. Come on, Mike. Mr. Keene. Mr. Keene, come here for the study quickly. What is it, Mrs. Keene? Look, there's the window, boss. It's a man trying to climb out. After him, Mike. Right, sir. Oh, no, you don't, ma'am.  Get away from me. Keep away. I'm warning you. Oh, so it's a fight you're after? Is it one hour yet? There now. Oh, still, Mr. Sneaking into other people's houses, are you? Mrs. Green, do you know this man? Yes, Mr. Keene. It's Jasper Gibbs, the man I told you about. The one whose farm was foreclosed by Mr. Kellogg. Window. What do you think of that? Oh, he gave me such a scare. I was coming along the hall when I saw him at the desk in the study. The minute I screamed, he started for the window. And, Mike, you'd better search Jasper Gibbs. He may be armed. No.  The hall's still now. Well, now, take a look at this boss.  Give me that. Not until you tell us what you meant to do with it, Jasper Gibbs. And explain why you broke into this house. I advise you to tell the truth.  Mr. Keene will return in just a moment.

Now back to Mr. Keene and the abandoned well murder case. Mr. Keene, the great investigator and his partner Mike Clancy, are investigating the mysterious murderer of wealthy Henry Kellogg, who was shot to death. His body was found at the bottom of a well on an abandoned farm next to his estate. A moment ago, Jasper Gibbs, an embittered old farmer, was found hiding in the study of the Kellogg home. Now, as Henry Kellogg's nephew Paul, his housekeeper Rachel Crane and Rachel's daughter Doris look on, Mr. Keene is saying to Jasper Gibbs, you'd better explain what you're doing here Jasper Gibbs. I've got nothing to say. You've got no right to question me. He's got every right, Mr. This is Mr. Keene. Mr. Keene, the investigator? All right, I'll tell you why I come here. When I heard about Henry Kellogg being murdered, his body found in the old well on my farm. Your farm? You mean the farmer joining this estate belongs to you? It was mine, till Henry Kellogg foreclosed the mortgage and took it away from me. And you swore that you would get even with him, didn't you Gibbs? Well, I was pretty sore, Mr. Keene. I went to Henry Kellogg and I told him what I thought of him. Did you also tell him you would kill him? Well, maybe I did. Don't remember. You know very well you did, Jasper Gibbs. You keep out of this, Rachel Crane. Mr. Keene, I've come here to find out what they were saying about me. Mrs. Crane, the housekeeper and her daughter Doris. I came in and I hid in Henry Kellogg's study, or see what I could over here. Why, that's ridiculous. Perhaps you meant to commit another murder. Watch out, what you're accusing, Mrs. Crane. Maybe you won't talk so fast when I tell Mr. Keene what I know about Henry Kellogg and your daughter. What you know about me?  One moment, Doris.  Just this, Mr. Keene. This girl Doris Crane. She used to meet Henry Kellogg secretly down by the abandoned well, the place where he was murdered. I saw them there together a lot of times. Well? Then what have you did? And I wouldn't be surprised if you met him there the other night, Doris Crane, and put that bullet through his heart. Mr. Keene, this man's insane. Why should I murder Henry Kellogg? I ain't headed to marry him. It's quite possible, Doris, that Henry Kellogg may have changed his mind about marrying you. You admitted to me that you didn't love him. Perhaps he found that out. Oh, Mr. Keene, why, you don't know what you're saying. My daughter Doris wouldn't commit a murder.  Who told you about that? Paul Kellogg, the murdered man's nephew. Yes, I did, Mrs. Crane. I felt Mr. Keene should know all the facts.  Mr. Keene knows about my quarrels with Uncle Henry. He also knows that I would have had nothing to gain by killing him. Mr. Keene, maybe I know something that'll help you. What is it, Jasper Gims? If you come down to the old mill with me, the old well, the place where Henry Kellogg was murdered, something I got to show you. Boss, I'll bet it's a trick. Very well, Gims. Now the rest of you wait here, please. Come along, Mike. Let's find out what it is that Jasper Gims is so anxious to show us at the scene of the murder. There's the old well right up ahead, Mr. Keene. So I see. Now then, Gims, what did you want to show us? Mr. Keene, soon as I heard about Henry Kellogg being murdered, here at the old well, I came snooping around and I found something that the police didn't notice. Right there, where I'm hiding. What is it, Mr. Keene, sir? There seems to be some tiny pieces of glass at the edge of the well, Mike. That's right. And back at the house I seen the housekeeper's daughter, Doris Crane. She was wearing a necklace made of glass beads. It was overseas, right, boss? I saw the necklace myself. And so did I, Mike. But Jasper Gims, it seems to me you're very eager to plant suspicion on Doris Crane. I'm only trying to help you find Henry Kellogg's murderer. Well, I'll put these slivers of glass in my pocket and Mike and I will be getting back to the house. Where are you staying, Gims? Well, I got a room in town. I warn you, don't try to leave. Or you may find yourself in an even more dangerous position than you already are. Come along, Mike. Let's get back to Henry Kellogg's house. Well, here's the front door, Mr. Keene. They've got the light slit inside. It's getting dark. I'll ring the doorbell, Mike. And Mike, remember, not a word about those slivers of glass we found at the old well. I'm sure I won't say a thing, sir. Oh, Mr. Keene and Mr. Clancy, come in. Yes, Mrs. Crane. Well, what did that crazy old man Jasper Gims have to show you down at the well? Nothing of importance, Mrs. Crane. Of course not. He's an eccentric old crackpot. But completely harmless. I'm not so sure, Paul Kellogg. In fact, I've been wondering just why he sneaked in here a while ago and what he was doing at the desk in your uncle's study. My uncle kept all his private papers in that desk. Mr. Keene, do you think... Maybe Jasper Gims was trying to steal the mortgage papers hoping to get his farm back. I'm afraid that wouldn't do him much good. Maybe we ought to keep the door to that study locked, at least until Uncle Henry's murder is caught. I think that's a good idea, Mr. Kellogg. None of your uncle's private papers should be touched until I've had a chance to go over them thoroughly. In fact, I want to search the entire study for a possible clue. Do you want to do that now, Mr. Keene? No, it's getting late. But Mike and I will do it first thing in the morning. Mrs. Crane, is there a room for us to spend the night in here in the house? Oh, yes, Mr. Keene. You and Mr. Clancy can have the guest room on the second floor. Good. And Mrs. Crane, do you have the key to Henry Kellogg's study? Why, yes. It's here on the mantle. Mr. Kellogg always kept it in this little box. Would you give the key to Mike Clancy, please? But I... Why do you hesitate, Mrs. Crane? I... very well. Here's the key, Mr. Clancy. Well, thanks. Mike, I want you to lock the door to Henry Kellogg's study and keep the key in your pocket. Right, sir. Tomorrow morning we'll go over every inch of the study. Because I have a feeling we may discover something in that room, which may lead us straight to Henry Kellogg's murderer. Well, Mr. Keene, it's 1.30 in the morning. We've been hiding here in Henry Kellogg's study for two hours. I don't think we'll have much longer to wait, Mike. I'm sure none of them heard us come in here. Well, boss, do you think... Wait, Mike. Someone's at the window. Quick, let's get in that closet. Right, sir. Leave the closet door open just to crack, Mike, so we can see and hear what goes on. Okay. Someone's claiming in the window. Just as I expected, since Preserver's boss says. Right, Mike. Open the closet door, Mike. Good evening, Paul Kellogg. Keene and Clancy, what are you doing here? We don't have to ask what you're doing here. You came to get that envelope from the secret drawer in your uncle's desk. Hand it over, please. No, the boss says to hand it over. There's the envelope, Mr. Keene, sir. Thank you, Mike. Look inside. Look at this, Mike. It's a fortune in negotiable bonds. I should say at least $200,000 worth. Give me those bonds. I don't think so, Paul Kellogg. I'll need them as evidence that you murdered your uncle Henry Kellogg.  You can't prove a thing. I have evidence that puts you on the scene of the crime. You claim that you first heard of your uncle's murder this morning, but I found slivers of glass near the spot where he was shot to death. What does that prove? Later, I noticed that the crystal on your wristwatch is broken. You must have smashed it when you pushed your uncle's body into the well. It'll be an easy matter to prove that the slivers of glass came from your watch. You're licked, mister, so you may as well admit it. Paul, I'd all admit it. I murdered my uncle to get those bonds. A month ago, I found out by accident that he kept them in that secret drawer in his desk. Nobody knew about them. They weren't even mentioned in his will. But I knew I'd have to work fast before he married that girl Doris Crane, and she found out about them. So you murdered your uncle, hoping to pin the crime on Doris or her mother. You planned to come back here later to get hold of the hidden bonds. But a few hours ago, when you suggested that the study door be kept locked, I suspected the truth that something was hidden in here that you were anxious to get your hands on. So you laid a trap for me. All right, Keen, but you haven't trapped me yet.  Watch it, boss! You shot me in the hand! Lucky I didn't put a bullet in your head, Kellogg. I was waiting for you to pull a gun, so I shot right through my coat pocket. Good work, Mike. You can take Paul Kellogg into custody. And when he faces a judge in jury, he'll learn the price he'll have to pay for murder. And so Mr. Keen finds this pollution to the abandoned well murder case. Here's a word from RCA Victor.

I did it again y'all. I did it again. I messed up Now we were having a conversation a couple days ago talking about how most receivers that are drafted by the Baltimore Ravens They do not make it out alive. We talked about how hard it is for them Not only to get a second contract from the Baltimore Ravens because that's something that just really never happens But for them to get an outside contract from another team after the Ravens And we talked about some different receivers that the Ravens have drafted But we missed out on a few that have not only gotten second contracts from the Ravens, but also got deals elsewhere Now we spoke about Tori Smith and length We know he was one of the ones because he signed with the the 49ers He signed with the Panthers and he signed with the Eagles as well And then my guy JT brought to my attention Chris Moore Chris Moore actually got a second contract from the Baltimore Ravens He signed a one-year deal with them and then the following year, which was last season He got signed by the Houston Texans. So I was thinking, okay That's the only ones that really made it out alive. That's it And I know some people brought up in the comment section. Oh, what about Darren Waller? Well, Darren Waller, he was drafted as a wide receiver But the Ravens transitioned him to tight end and then he went on to the Raiders to become one of the best tight ends in the game Crazy story. You should hear it sometime But anyway, there was another guy that I missed I completely missed and when I heard it I was like, wow shout out to my guy Biologin because he was in the comment section and he kindly corrected me. He said, wait Oh wait there's more 1999 fourth round draft pick wide receiver Brandon Stokely Drafted by the Baltimore Ravens Super Bowl champion with the Baltimore Ravens And guess what? This guy he not only got his deal from the Baltimore Ravens his initial rookie deal, of course But then he went on to go play with the Colts and he was like, you know what? Winning the Super Bowl was so nice that I want to do it twice So he went and won a Super Bowl with the Colts And then he also played for the Broncos the Seahawks the Giants the Broncos again but then It all came back around all came back around because in 2013 which ended up being his last season he played for the Ravens again And it it wasn't the prettiest it wasn't the prettiest because that's when we had Dallas Clark too and it That season was just that season was rough and that season was a wake-up call because it humbled me as a Raven fan It humbled me big time Because as y'all remember the previous five years we were coming off of a bunch of highs AFC championship AFC championship AFC championship division around Super Bowl. It's like, whoa Let's go. Oh, yeah, we on top, baby But then yeah 2013 was that Aiden is ugly. Um, but yeah, I was like, I couldn't believe that Like man, but Brandon Stokely. So he's another one. But anyway, just had to Get that taken care of now some other things that we need to talk about today Man, NFL has been getting a little busy. Uh, first a quick little channel update for y'all I meant to do it last week, but I just haven't been able to do it We are pro this week. You're probably going to be seeing two of days Two of days one video in the morning one video at night Um, and if you can't watch the one at night, I mean you could always watch the father in morning Whatever really but one video in the morning and one video at night because we are so far back When it comes to questions from subscribers I want to try not going to make any promises. I'm not going to stress myself out trying to get caught up But I'm going to try to get caught up with all the questions from subs that we have So expect to see two of days probably starting today Um, so we'll see how that goes another thing As far as some little things going on in the NFL, you know, you ever played when you when you was a kid Even some of y'all adults might play now too. You ever played tag? You ever played tag tag was a fun game Like oh tag you're it But now the NFL they've been playing tag And they've been playing franchise tag and the deadline to apply the franchise tag to somebody Is tomorrow It's tuesday by 4 p.m. NFL whenever there comes their deadlines.   They ain't got no money They're not gonna be able to tag him. It's gonna cost too much. They ain't gonna be able to sign him It's gonna be cost too much because of that salary cap. These dudes ain't gonna have no bread And the team i'm talking about is the kansas city chiefs and of course remember when they acquired Orlando brown jr. From the baltimore ravens. Oh man. I remember that and I was just thinking wow I guess that was the only team that was really biting with the first round pick Even though ravens had to give up a second round pick in order to get that first round pick, but it's okay You got rachelle babing in a daffy away.  For a one year rental The chiefs are not the rams even though. I mean both teams they used to go into the super bowls over and over and over So something they doing is working. But anyway another conversation um, but they they franchise tag Orlando brown jr. So He is not going anywhere and if they can't come to a contract extension I think the deadline to come to a contract extension is in may for people under the franchise tag I believe I gotta double check that though Um, but if they can't come to a contract extension by then Then he will just play this year under the franchise tag now.   I was like, oh, okay All right, obj. Do your thing, baby So shout out to Orlando brown jr. I'm glad things are going well for him Now to get even closer to the baltimore ravens. Now this franchise tag kind of shocked me Uh, because this was a ravens afc north rival in the cleveland browns Um, I remember the game. I think it was the game in baltimore where they said it was a touchdown catch But it didn't look like he caught that ball the browns they tagged david nejoku And when I saw that I was like what? They they tagged david nejoku what Because I have been hearing all these reports this offseason all the browns They really want to keep david nejoku. They really love david nejoku. They want to hang on to david nejoku And those are definitely different from things that we have been hearing about david nejoku in years past Because you would always hear oh david nejoku. He's trade bait. Oh david nejoku the browns They shopping them. Then you hear oh david nejoku.  This was like last year But to see them actually put that franchise tag on I was like, oh okay Now on the flip side What does this mean for austin hooper? What does it mean for him? I'm not sure if he still has that title But when the browns initially signed him He became the highest paid titan in the league Now I um, obviously nothing personal against him anything, but I just always felt like because I know he came from the falcons I just always felt like he was overrated I was just when the browns when they signed him. I was like, okay cool They signed the austin hooper for the deal that they signed him for I was just thinking like How like why? Is his market gonna be that crazy? I just I just never felt like he was just like like that No, he can catch it. But I just I don't know man. Maybe it's just me, but I just never felt like he was like like that Um, but hey, I ain't mad. Nobody getting a bread man. So shout out to him. But now What does this mean for him like because You're already paying him a lot of money And now you're tagging david nejoku. So what does that say for david nejoku? Are you gonna tag him and try to sign him to a contract extension? Are you gonna try to do like a sort of like a patriots thing with with gronk and uh, Aaron Hernandez had they had that little dual threaded tight end But that's a lot of money commanded to the tight ends now So you would have to think and they still got the guy who went to um FAU I always forget his name but You got to feel like they're gonna move on from austin hooper, but that that's just me my own personal thoughts I ain't hear anything about anything from it, but To me it feels like all right Well, they tag in david nejoku. So they would they want to really keep him around Because if they really felt like it wasn't worth it to keep david nejoku They'd be like, okay. Bye. See you. What would be the point of tagging him? Because again that franchise tag that all that cap is allocated to that one player. It's all guaranteed to It's all guaranteed It's not like with some deals with how you can hear they their salary can be like five million a year But their cap hit ends up being like 2.5 million. No, no, no with the franchise tag It's all of it So if the franchise tag just use this as an example if the franchise tag is for 10 mil Then they take they take up 10 mil in cap space the franchise tag is for 20 mil They take up 20 mil in cap space and so on and so forth So we'll see what happens on the other side of the afc north With those cleveland browns Now something else I'm sure a lot of ravens fans heard this already and they were like, oh, yeah, come on back, baby Do a brandon stokely Zadaria smith erin wilson who used to Work for the baltimore sun. So he's familiar with the ravens stuff. But anyway He said that It's expected that the packers are going to release One zadaria smith So, I mean that is no surprise. That's something that a lot of us have been expecting to happen But it could happen like any day now because I think I believe next week that that legal tampering period starts They need to just get rid of that just just start free agency all money I mean, it's basically started but yeah, so Yeah, so it's it's it's getting it's getting spicy around the league. It's getting hot. It's getting really hot um And that that time is ticking so ravens now, we know they they ain't gonna use the franchise tag on nobody um, but Now would be the time over this next week Uh, would be the time when you could possibly see them Release a player them possibly give a player a contract extension uh them possibly I mean, we haven't heard about any trades from anybody but That could happen like any day now And then of course with the new league year starting like next week. Oh, yeah, it's it's on the way very very soon so Keep your eyes open your ears open your notifications turned on make sure you subscribe to the channel if you haven't already Um, and again, thank you all so much for rocking with us. Thank you for supporting. Thank you for watching Uh, and again the tour days they gonna start two days So look out for an episode of question from subscribers later on tonight. I love y'all team. Keep it clean That's a lot of t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t we out man


Hey, welcome to Stan Energy Man. I'm Stan Osterman from the Hawaii Center for Advanced Transportation Technology. He's part of D-Bed and the High Tech Development Corporation up there in Manoa. And today we have a great guest who's coming to us from the High Tech Development Corporation up in Manoa and then Manoa Innovation Center on Woodland Avenue, Nissan Givari from Adnoviv. Adnoviv. Is that right? Adnoviv. Adnoviv. Welcome to the show. Glad to have you here. Thank you very much for having me. And so I know this is technology I'm not really familiar with in great detail and this is an energy show so I know that you know I've been told it definitely applies to saving energy which is part of what we talk about on this show. So why don't you give the audience a little bit of an idea of how you got into this business or how you helped start the business and a little bit of your background. Sure. So my background is electrical engineering. I got my bachelor master and PhD in electrical engineering. I graduated from UH Manoa with my doctorate degree in 2015. My advisor is the founder of the company and what we make at the company is actually based on my PhD research. Agreed. So I graduated 2015. The company, Adnoviv, started in 2013, late 2013 and we make intelligent occupancy sensors. Primarily my research was about microwave Doppler radars that we use for medical purposes getting respiration rate, heart rate, vital signs. And I was trying to have a better signal stimulation, increasing the signal to noise ratio, reducing noise, basically improving the performance of Doppler radar sensing for medical purposes and one of the experiments we did at the time was measuring a human activity level. Since we can measure the vital signs, we were thinking let's see how can we do with different activity of a person inside the room. And we published that paper and later on we think we thought about that this is a good idea that we can use this one as an occupancy sensor. So the whole thing started from there and we were able to get the National Science Foundation support for our project. So we secured the couple rounds of funding from National Science Foundation and State of Hawaii and I am a vice president of research at the company right now. Great. Where are you originally from? I'm from Iran originally. I got my bachelor master's there. I worked for a couple years then I came to UH Manoa and started my PhD over there. So you picked Hawaii? You didn't want to go to like Phoenix or Texas or something? There are very few groups in the United States working in my field and Hawaii is one of the best groups working. That's good to know. Right. And I was very lucky to to got the scholarship and came here. So you would give UH Engineering School of Engineering pretty high grades in terms of you know the quality of their education of these? Right. UH at least the graduate school that I went to in graduate level they have a pretty high level and as I said like there are few groups working in the United States in this field and one of the leading groups actually is in Hawaii. Great. That's good to know. So how did you come up with Adna Vivas? That's kind of an interesting name for company. I'm sure you didn't have trouble getting a trademark or a copyright on it. So what's the background from that as you understand it? Right. So the founder of the company came up with this name and it has a Latin root. One of the applications of physiological sensing wireless physiological sensing could be finding the victims behind the rebels or finding lives. And as far as I know Adnavib means finding life. So we picked that name for the company and as you said it's not hard to to have a trademark for this one. I'm glad you made the connection to radar because actually from my military background I have a little bit of experience that but not everybody understands what Doppler radar is and so is this technology an extension of Doppler or based on Doppler radar? So it's based on Doppler radar what we do we actually send out the microwave signals we transmit the signal and believe it or not the chest to modulate the microwave signal and even your heart. So what we get in the receiver what we are trying to achieve is extracting the tiny contractions of the heart that induces to the chest or your lungs and then getting the vital signs out of that but there are so many challenges in doing that. So this must be a fairly small resolution cell in that radar then. Right. You're picking up that tiny of a change and okay. Right. And so it's the first integrated circuit for this one came out in 2000 and since then there were a lot of improvements making it smaller faster cheaper better and we thought this is the best time to to launch this product that we came to a point that we can make a device that is has a superior performance and can compete with the existing occupancy sensors with the same price but having a much better accuracy and detection. So yeah because a lot of occupancy sensors now are just basically you enter a room it senses that there's some most some kind of motion in the room and then it turns on your lights or turns off on your air conditioning or whatever. So yours is about in the same price point as those kind of technologies but you can actually like measure a person's body temperature or what how much more precise is yours and what exactly do you measure. Right. So the problem with the current occupancy sensors in the market is those sensors are made to to be a motion sensor. Yeah. We are making a sensor that can detect life and we call it true human presence detection or true part. And so those sensors are very crude as well. The resolution is very low and they have a lot of false negative or positive problems. I feel like a lot of people experience that when you stay still sitting at a desk typing the lights would go off and you have to wave your arms. That's true. I didn't think about that because there are no time or two. Right. Right. So that's exactly what users end up doing. They don't either use the occupancy sensors because of the notices associated with it or they crank up the sitting to have the lights on for 30 or more on. And we'd add no true part. We actually can sense your respiration and heart rate even your sitting still. From the moment you're in till the moment you leave and it doesn't matter how long. So if since we are going after a very tiny motions if we have major motions such as walking or other local motions it's hard to focus on respiration and heart. But we can detect a major motion. So we can detect there's a major motion.  So if the building already has some kind of occupancy sensing technology is yours kind of plug and play where you can literally just give them a finer resolution system at roughly the same kind of cost or right. That's actually what we try to achieve. So for roughly for the same price point we were we were trying to make a module that can be retrofitted to existing wall switches. We were actually talking to to one of the companies and they asked interesting questions. Can you hide it behind the ceiling. Can you put it there. Can you do. And for example for infrared it has to be line of sight. Right. So you cannot block it behind something. It couldn't be behind something. But we can because microwave can penetrate to true certain objects. But depends on the application we don't really we can tweak the settings and parameters of the radar to sense the occupants inside the room. We're not interested to detect like somebody is in the next room. But but this radar has that capability to but depends on how do you design it and how you set the parameters. So for specific application. So is there like though I'm a maximum sized room that you could put one sensor in and you're not put another sensor like it like this room is maybe 30 feet by 20 feet. And I'm sure one sensor would cover the whole room. But how big can you go and still just use one sensor. So we did different range test things with the sensor and we were able even to detect the respiration rate out from a 75 meter. Wow. That's right. But depends which application you want to use it because if you increase the power or radar antenna pattern and and different parameters associated with the radar, you can have different coverage. But depends on the application we can design it. And the good thing about this design is it's very flexible. So depends on how how you want to deploy it so you can change the design parameters to to cover. But roughly it can cover we we tested our sensor side by side with the commercial occupancy sensors in the market, which are mainly infrared and ultrasonic and our sensor can cover the same area that those sensors are covering. Have you ever thought of using this application also in the security system, not just the occupancy system, but a security system instead of a motion detector? That's a great question. We were talking to actually potential partners. And they said right now we are using three different sensors for controlling lighting, air conditioning and security. So the one of the goals we are trying to achieve is combining all these sensing into one central system, one one sensor basically can sense for all three of them. But it can have security applications and previously it has been used for intrusion detection. Okay, and one of the things that we are trying to achieve actually combining these sensors, for example, for air conditioning systems, they usually rely on co2 sensors, you have imagine a ballroom, you have so many people, it takes a long time to build up enough co2, then these sensors would detect it and they, they send the command to air handlers and other things to to condition the air. But with our sensor, we can actually count the number of occupants in a room. And in a much faster fashion, can control the the air systems. So that's one of the things that we are trying actually to do to combine the security application, the air conditioning application and the lighting systems. That's awesome. Okay, we're coming up on a quick break here, we're going to take 60 seconds and talk about some of the other shows that are here on Think Tech Hawaii. And we'll be right back with a song. Hi, I'm Tim Apachello. I'm the host of Moving Hawaii Forward, a show dedicated to transportation issues and traffic issues here on Oahu. Join us every other Tuesday at 12 noon. And as we discuss how we try to solve our traffic headaches, not to, not to include just the rail but transit and carpooling and everything in between. So join us every other Tuesday, Moving Hawaii Forward. Thank you. Hi, this is Jane Sugimura. I'm the co-host for Condo Insider. And we're on Think Tech Hawaii every Thursday at three o'clock. And we're here to talk about condominium living and issues that affect condominium residents and owners. And I hope you'll join us every week on Thursday. Aloha. My name is Calvin Griffin, host of Military in Hawaii, which airs here on Think Tech Hawaii every Friday at 11 a.m. Please join us. We'll be talking about issues concerning our military, veterans community and other related issues that concern all of us. Hey, welcome back to Stand the Energy Man on my lunch hour. I'm glad to be here today talking to one of the companies and new companies up at the Manoa Innovation Center. Isan here has got a great product that I'm learning about and I think has a lot of value, probably even in more areas than he's thought of yet, but I know he's going to get a lot of ideas when people start hearing about what they what they design and what they build. So Isan, we talked about the sensor and how it is microwave based so it can see through certain materials, not everything, but but it can be tuned so it doesn't see through every wall or, you know, you're not going to worry about people next door being detected. But what is the power output of this thing and the safety aspects of a microwave? And so people get really nervous about cell phone radiation or whatever and the internet can have all kind of nasty stuff on it in 30 seconds if you don't explain the safety part. So I'll explain the safety side of your product. Sure, we actually faced this problem before and a lot of people were worried about the safety aspects of it. The output power usually at the antenna level is less than 10 dBm, which is pretty low. It's lower than the cell phone radiation. And the other thing that people should consider is that you put your cell phone next to your brain, next to your head, but you put the sensor in a room probably at one corner 15 feet away from you. And the radiation power attenuates a lot by by distance. So if the cell phone is problematic, and if there's a safety concerns about that one, it's bigger than yours. It's much bigger than this one. So good. Well, that's good to get up front. So people don't worry about that. Well, we talked about that. We have a short video here of some of the folks that work with you talking about the technology. So why don't we run that video so everybody can be a part of that conversation. Intelligent occupancy sensors that can save energy without compromise. One of the leading causes of this energy race is not having an effective and efficient technology that turns off the lighting and climate control systems in unoccupied rooms. The amount of CO2 emission generated from this wasted energy is equivalent to 100 million cars. That's half the cars in the United States.  So what's the problem? We all know occupancy sensors exist and they can potentially save up to 50% of energy. But those sensors detect motion not through human presence. With AvaViv's true path, you get true presence of light with the better technology that not only turn lights on, but it keeps them on as long as they need to be on and shut them off when you are not reading them because our sensor is so accurate that it can detect the tiny contractions of heart and that's how we save both energy and light. Particular millions of dollars in research we developed over the years used by the military and medical researchers and applying it to the energy efficient commercial sector. With our six patents, we can detect true human presence by taking the vacant looking military equipment and convert it into a small device that can be retrofitted to existing WOSWIGs. Our PC sensing market alone is in the billions predicted to be over $4.5 billion by 2020. Our main focus is office buildings, which account for over one third of all interest in solar units since half of that is directed toward lighting and HVAC systems, which makes our technology directly addresses. This team has been working on this technology for the past five years together. Collectively, we have more than 50 years of experience and we are the leading experts in this field. We are at true human presence detection, producing energy consumption, lowering energy bills, all from Hawaii. So there's a little bit of insight from the folks working on AdWeeve. And so it's on what's a possible application of maybe using this in like senior living conditions where you have folks where maybe they're on their own living in an assistant community or someplace where they're not like in a care home, but they have a lot of mobility, independence and things. But it's a way to kind of keep an eye and make sure that they're okay when they are alone. Do you have anything in mind for that? Right. We had actually a paper about home monitoring and I've seen a couple other papers about this one. It can be used for 24 seven home monitoring. And right now, especially for respiration rate, heart rate, it's like a spot monitoring. You go to a doctor, you monitor it one time and those parameters can be changed very rapidly based on your condition. And 24 monitoring would be very helpful for medical professionals to assess your health status, especially for elderly people and senior citizens. One of the applications that this sensor can have is fall detection. Basically, it can detect if a fall happens and can call certain numbers or seek for help, especially the population of elderly people are growing and can be used for that purpose as well. Yeah, I might need this in a couple of years. I'm getting up here. Hopefully not.  What are some of the other things that you have in mind for the future of your company? Any areas you are kind of envisioning going into that kind of grow off of what we talked about? Right. So the beauty about this Doppler radar sensing that can have many different applications. For example, one of the DOD applications that came up before, they were interested in to know if the vital signs of a fallen soldier in the battlefield before risking the other people's life to go and save him. Or it can be used as we touched upon it at the beginning that if an earthquake happens, we want to know the people who are still alive behind the rebels. They are still bits. It can have medical applications that there are certain applications that you cannot put electrodes on the patient body, such as burn injury victims or you need to think about that. That's true. Or infants. And it can be used for sleep monitoring. We actually did extensive testing in Coins Hospital for sleep monitoring. The current gold standard for sleep monitoring, they use a very obtrusive spirometers and other sensors that the sensor itself can change the sleeping pattern. Right. Right. Right. But with this sensor that you can just put it besides the bed and in monitor your vital signs and respiration, heart rate. So it can have many different applications. And once we started the company, we thought if we want to go after every market, it would be a distraction and we couldn't achieve what we wanted to. But we thought especially for Hawaii, since the tourism industry is the main industry in here, we thought occupancy detection would be the best market for us to start it. But we can expand it as you mentioned in the future. And one of the things we are trying to do is consolidate these, for example, applications together, as you said, for security applications, lighting, AC systems, they use three different sensors which we feel is not necessary and it can be combined. Well, when you're a Fortune 500 company a couple years from now, just remember that you were on Think Tech Hawaii with Stan Energy and make sure you contribute to Think Tech and help them keep going. Sure, sure, of course. Hopefully we will end up there and we will never forget you. OK, so right now your array is set up to kind of sweep a room or cover a room. But in radar, you normally, while you have an antenna that moves to give you a suite, but is this like digital? So it's set up to cover a certain width or you can actually focus it when you told me about the battlefield application, that would be something where you'd like point it right at something and take a spot reading rather than an area reading. So is it a totally different technology or just you change the focus down to a narrower focus? Right, right, right. So that that is more about the antenna design and radiation pattern of that for an application like a battlefield. You want a very narrow beam antenna like a horn antenna that you can focus for a long distance. But for our application, we wanted to make it compact and cover more area. So we're using patch antennas 60 degree or more beam bits, which is roughly comparable with the present occupancy detectors. So one of the experiments that we did before, we did testing according to NEMA standard. Those are the common standards for occupancy sensors. So we followed those standards and we did all the testing in UH Manoa classrooms. So we divided the rooms into one three feet by three feet cells and basically how they tested one person moves from cell to cell and they try to detect it or they have a robotic arm that it goes from one cell to the other one and they try which cells that they can detect in both experiments. Our sensor has much superior performance and we went actually beyond NEMA standard and we had a mechanical target simulating respiration and heart rate very, very tiny motions. And so apparently only our sensor was capable of detecting that. So what have, if you can tell me, I don't know, sometimes you don't want to, new companies don't want to say who they're talking to, but have you had interest from any big companies lately that are looking at your technology? Right. We we had actually a very good conversations with a couple of companies. Johnson Control in Hawaii is one of the country companies which is interested in our technology and they wanted to see a third party validation or more performance testing. And right now we are we are deploying our sensors or modified prototype to be tested in Hawaii Natural Energy Institute frog building. They have a zero net energy building and they tightly monitor temperature, humidity and other factors inside the room. We are trying to deploy our sensor with common occupancy sensors and measure measure it for a couple of months and have a very extensive quantitative analysis between our sensor and the common occupancy sensors. And we are going to deploy cameras there as well to have a gold standard. Which sensor would perform better in which condition? OK. That's great. Well, I'm wishing your company the best of luck and I'm glad I had you on today because quite frankly when I was thinking about what you would use this kind of sensor for I had a little different perspective. That's why the title of the show is Are You Out? We have an application for that. Like it's going to sense body heat or other thermal imaging kind of things I'm used to seeing in an occupancy sensor. So I'm glad that we scored that away and I got educated here. But it's really cool and I think there's probably a lot more ahead of your way when you really start thinking of how your Doppler microwaves can really do a lot more than most people are thinking about right now, even the folks inside your company, because you've definitely captured a little piece there that I think has a lot of potential in security markets in like you see in building occupancy energy conservation. I'm sure the folks at Hawaii Energy would love to talk to you about room sensors. They have voltage sensors on the walls and things like that. I'm sure they'd like to talk to you more about yours. I never even thought about the motion sensors.  You know, it's like I never even consider that. But I know it happens and then you're right.  They don't use it. And that's part of the problem. Some of these energy efficiency devices, if they give you false positives or false queuing, people just don't use it. If you don't use it, then it's no good as an energy saving device. So thank you for being here. Well, thank you very much for having me. I really appreciate it. This opportunity. Good luck with your company. I think it's pretty exciting. I'm going to be watching for you guys. In fact, when you go public, give me a notice so I can make a lot of money.


China is writing a new Bible, but why am I not bothered? Many of you heard that China is undertaking, I think about a 10 year project to rewrite the Bible. It's been told, reported, we don't know for sure that certain texts are gonna be changed. Some texts are gonna be kind of more communist friendly, such as the 10 Commandments being changed to where you're not having any of the guys before him to kind of having authority or shunning, Western authorities, that kind of thing. We're not totally sure. It's also been reports about the woman caught in adultery. Interesting thing is about that that particular passage probably isn't, well, we know it's not there. It doesn't belong in John 753 to 811. Does it belong in any other parts of the Bible? That's another story, but taking that out and then rewriting it to say that Jesus, after asking is anyone there to condemn her, then he stones her and then says that I'm a sinner. Also, something like that, we're not sure. Do I think that China is going to go through with this? Probably so. I mean, there are more Chinese Christians even in the underground church than there are people in the Communist Party. So what is China's thought? Well, if you can't beat them, join them. That's kind of China's little evil plan anyway. It's their way when it comes to economics. It's their way when it comes to military might. China wants to dominate every aspect of people's life. But why am I not all that concerned about it? I'll tell you why. Because it's not the biggest threat. What's the biggest threat? Well, first of all, before I go there, let's stop and look at what's always been happening. This isn't new. A bigger force, a stronger force, more than China has already undertaken this. That is the enemy, the devil. Remember in Genesis 3, the Bible says the serpent was more crafty and that any other beast of the field, even more than China. And he said to the woman, indeed has God said that you should not eat from any tree of the garden. The woman said to the serpent, from the fruit of the trees of the garden, we may eat, but from the fruit of the tree which is in the midst of the garden, the middle of the garden, God has said you shall not eat from it, nor touch it lest you die. What's the serpent's response?   You'll be like God knowing good and evil. So what is Satan gonna do?  So always been his MO. That's not in the Bible. That's not what the word says. But then if you say, yeah, it is, if you're convinced of it is, well, that's not what it means. And then he'll use kind of appeal to your desires. And so that hadn't changed. Whether there's a China or whether there's United States of America, or whoever else, whether there's a move, because there's always been a move to, to kind of get rid of a fidelity to the scriptures. You hear more and more people saying that, well, all of God's words aren't in the Bible.  You hear people say that we don't have to necessarily stick to the text. They don't want you to adhere to actually, being a good exegete, hermeneutics are a bad word. No, let's lean more on the spirit. The problem is, who's spirit? How do we know your spirit is the spirit? Two people said they have a Holy Spirit and they both disagree. Well, how do we know which one is right? John says that we should test everything that every spirit is not of God. So test it. How? By the word. David makes a statement in Psalm 119. Your word, have I hidden in my heart that I may not sin against you. The people of China, especially those in the underground church, the persecuted church, they already know this. They hide the word in their hearts. As a matter of fact, if you're in jail, if you're persecuted and you're a Christian in jail, they smuggle Bibles in and you have a page or two often and you have to memorize this. And after memorizing it, you either destroy it or you pass it on. So what are they doing? They're committing a full page or two or three to memorization. Why? To hide it in their heart. They are that series. And so if there's anybody on the planet that I have a lot of faith in in terms of their devotion to the scriptures, it's to people in China. It's us over here who have all these freedoms who willingly, who gleefully distort the scriptures to do just what Eve did because we find something that's appealing to us that is nicest. So we'll take the scriptures and pervert them. That's why we've got a lot of women preachers because we've taken the scriptures and pervert them. That's why we've got folks who are charging monies for deliverance. And the deliverance isn't even real deliverance. It's a fake deliverance because the scriptures teach us that Jesus is the deliverer and having him. If you have him, then you are free indeed. But we have decided to turn our eyes, turn our blind eye to the scriptures, close our ears because we don't wanna see the truth. I'm not worried about what China's gonna do about rewriting the scriptures. I'm not worried about them. I trust more of the people over in China, the Christians there than I do here. See what you don't see in China often is this foolishness that we have over here. You don't see a whole lot of people falling out and doing all of this foolishness. Why? Because they can't. Their lives are really on the line and they love the Lord with their lives on the line. Here, not so much so. And so you'll see people doing things that aren't in the book because they can. They can get away with it. And so what we ought to worry about is if a rewritten Bible comes here to America, but it doesn't matter anyway. It doesn't even matter if someone rewrites the Bible and puts it here in America. Why? Because those Christians who aren't really Christians, who are just looking for anything who have these itching ears, they're not reading the scriptures anyway.


Recruitment has been a challenge, but the feedback we're getting from the parents and grandparents has been tremendous. They're extremely excited about their loved ones learning who they are, where they come from, where their family comes from, the teachings, the students smudge every day. There's also, there is a lodge room within the school that the school division built for the programs, so they have a monthly lodge and the lodge monthly with regards to doing teachings. So the grandparents and the parents are, they love the actual, the program and brings them emotionally, sometimes to tears seeing their little ones smudging and saying, maybe the prayers and singing and so forth, so there is a, there is a challenge when it comes to promoting that in the sense of the people who are unsure whether they should send. So our best advocates would be our grandparents and parents for the program. We're looking at doing a large scale, once again, recruitment for the program and we have tons of positives. So hopefully this year we're going to at least get our numbers to where they need to be for kindergarten, which they have been, but we're always looking to get to that dilemma where we have too many. Where I see the program going is it'll go up to grade six for sure. And then whatever what happens with all language programs, they determine how and when or if it's going to expand to grade seven and eight. But I think with the the importance of the two languages, I see that it becoming a school. Now that all depends on the interest in the community. There is interest, but once again, they have to take that chance with their with their little ones that come to the school. So that's what I ask the community, take that chance and come to the program because it's 100%. It's everything that you would think it would be success in the programs measured, I think in a few ways. One, we have of course the provincial standards with English language arts and math. Of course they have to in order to to survive and thrive in in today's world, you have to be able to communicate and you have to be able to do math and English in a way that that is that will make you be able to function in today's society. That being said, finding out who you are and realizing what your place is and where you stand is another thing and I think that's what the program does. Success in the program is indicated in many ways. It's not just adding up one plus one equals two. Success would be a student becoming confident, proud of who they are, proud of themselves or family, knowing where they came from and then able to speak your your language, your family's language. I think that is success. So success isn't done on a weekly basis. I think it's done continuously. It's growth of the student in both of the four areas for balance in their lives, the social, emotional, physical, spiritual. All those bring balance. And if you have balance, I think that totally brings success to both the student and I believe that will filter into the family at home as well. The importance of language as we know it's it's it's a priority for this nation for language to be to start over again. Language has been identified as a priority. And I think a language I believe is everything. I think if you everybody identifies themselves by language, and if you're indigenous, you can say you're indigenous, but students now in the program say I'm Cree or I'm Ojibwe. So they're identifying themselves by the language which in fact is identifying their culture as well, their family, who they are. So I believe that is so important that you can establish yourself, your your presence and your being just by saying what your language is. And I guess the success indicator of that is when you you you have the parents come in on on student led conferences, and the students are showing off to their grandparents and parents, the language that they can speak and the words they can say and the phrases. And yeah, families, they tear up. They're so proud. It's a very happy place to be when they're they're showing you know where is that they they've learned over such a short period of time or like little sponges growing and they just take in whatever words you can give them. It's tremendous and it's far exceeded. Once again, the expectations of the room itself or the rooms itself because we have two wonderful teachers who are dedicated to the students learning. And in fact, they're they're moving that learning into the families because the families are totally active in everyday schooling of the kids. Indigenous education, that's a term that that can be identified in many different ways. That's a question that we ask all the time when we're doing professional development on Indigenous education. So to answer the question and what is indigenous education, I would say that is the that is the the learning that students and adults would do to help increase the knowledge, awareness and action of both Indigenous and non-Digenous students and adults moving towards a greater understanding of being and living together. Indigenous education brings that part of education that's that has been lost over time. And I mean lost as in on the side of the road where it's been left there, hopefully hidden and forgotten in many cases by by who's left it there. Now that it's been found and brought forth, it's just it's something that we have to do. We have to bring awareness and I'm trying to get we're trying to get away from that awareness component into more of the action of Indigenous education. What can we do to to make the wrongs right to make to get away from equality to equity? Have an understanding what we need to do for for all of us to be able to walk together or even have the leaders walk behind supporting those who are ahead. Indigenous education is is still, I believe, a long way away from where I would like to see it be. But I think over the last five, five to ten years we've gone and taken some really big steps. Of course there's sometimes where you have to take a step backwards to go two steps forward. But I think we're starting to get it. Is it perfect? Is it where Indigenous education can be or should be? No. But I believe it becomes a point where we just have to start doing not just sitting in a room and listening to someone talk. There's action involved. I think that's where the 94 Calls Action come into play where the term action is is much needed. So where we are learning about and I'll use concrete example would be the Indian Act. If you learn about the Indian Act, that's one thing. What actions are you going to take from what you've learned in order to make what we're doing better? That's Indigenous education for both Indigenous and non-Indigenous people. Well, Indigenous education and I'm going to speak from an educational point of view and I'll take it from my, I'll give you just a snapshot of where I see it from where I stand right now today working with the school division. There aren't enough Indigenous people standing in the front of the classroom teaching the amount of students that are Indigenous sitting in the seats. It's not correlating. So we're not mirroring that role model. If the one thing that I can do for Indigenous education is to support that movement from learner to leader, and if you want to use the word leader as a teacher, you can do that as well. But that would be my one thing that I would like to see is just have more Indigenous leaders come out of our education system and start standing up in front of the classes and be those leaders. And I'm not just saying that they have to be teachers. I would like to see them as principals moving into senior administration, leading school divisions. That's what I would say would be my vision for Indigenous education from my perspective. That's one of my goals.


In this video, I wanna conclude our discussion of non Euclidean geometry. So we've explored some manifolds, elliptic and hyperbolic to give some examples of things that locally behave like Euclidean geometry but globally can look a little bit different. All right, and the main difference between these different manifolds is their parallel postulate, Euclidean, elliptic and hyperbolic. Are parallel lines unique? Are there no parallel lines? So parallel lines don't exist. Or maybe parallel lines are multiple, right? There could be a plurality of multiple parallel lines in your geometry here. So the existence, and I don't, so the existence or non-existence, the multiplicity of parallel lines is a direct consequence of the parallel postulates. But I should also mention that there are other consequences of the parallel postulates. I want you to consider the following three diagrams you see right here. So it turns out that in, and it's kind of, might seem surprising at first, but it turns out that of these three geometries, Euclidean, hyperbolic and elliptic geometry, only one of them has a rectangle. That is a quadrilateral with four right angles because that's actually what the word rectangle means itself coming from the Latin. It just means right angle, okay? Rectangle there. And so rectangles are actually, they seem quite ubiquitous in Euclidean geometry but actually rectangles are a Euclidean feature. If you go to an alien planet where the geometry is now hyperbolic or even elliptic, you're not gonna find rectangles. They don't exist, which is a very strange thing. Now I'll give you some more explanation of it in a moment, but when you try to construct things that are similar to rectangles, this is a topic we'll study a little bit later, the idea of a security quadrilateral. When you try to construct security quadrilaterals, which these are quadrilaterals which have two right angles on the base, right? You get things that look like the following in hyperbolic geometry. The curvature goes inward, right? And then when it comes to elliptic geometry, you see this curvature going outward. There is curbing going on, but the direction is different. These angles right here are called the summit angles and Euclidean geometry, the summit angles are measured at 90 degrees. In hyperbolic geometry, the summit angles are actually acute. They have an angle measure less than 90 degrees. In elliptic geometry, these summit angles are actually obtuse. They have an angle sum greater than, excuse me, these angles are obtuse, they're greater than 90 degrees. And this is significant because if I take two right angles and I take two obtuse angles, I want you to notice here that the angle sum of this quadrilateral will exceed 360 degrees. You don't see that in Euclidean geometry. If you look at the hyperbolic quadrilateral here, you have two angles that are acute, two angles that are right, the angle sum there is actually going to be less than 360 degrees. That's kind of strange. It's actually in the Euclidean geometry where we have the principle that the angle sum of a quadrilateral is 360 degrees. And so it turns out that rectangles only exist in Euclidean geometry because the angle sum theorem, angles add up to 360 degrees in the quadrilateral, that is actually a Euclidean result that's proven by the Euclidean parallel postulate. And if you don't have the Euclidean parallel postulate because maybe you are hyperbolic or maybe because you're elliptic, then you don't get it. And it seems really strange if you're not used to these things. But after all, let me kind of change the direction a little bit here. A rectangle is a special type of parallelogram. Ah, a parallelogram is a quadrilateral or opposite sides are parallel to each other. So if you have an axiom about parallelism, different axioms of parallelism could affect parallelograms. Could they not? Yes, they could. And that then starts to leave like, okay, I can start to see now maybe rectangles do have something to do with parallel lines because after all, these lines are parallel to each other. These lines are parallel to each other, right? And the least that's how it is in Euclidean geometry. Are these two lines parallel to each other? In hyperbolic geometry? Well, I can tell you that in elliptic geometry these two lines are not parallel to each other. And the idea is if I were to extend these lines with the direction we have here, the curvature seems to suggest that, yeah, eventually they're gonna intersect each other. On a sphere, they absolutely would. In hyperbolic geometry, these two lines will be parallel to each other. Notice how the curvature, it bows away, it curves away from this line. These lines will never intersect each other because of the curvature. And so that's significant. But it turns out there's gonna be another parallel line we could come up with, but that's a topic for another day. Talk about this issue of angle measures. I want to tell you another property of non-Euclidean geometry. In Euclidean geometry, we are familiar with the principle of the sum of all three angles of a triangle is equal to 180 degrees. That's what I was alluding to before when I said that the quadrilateral angle sum is 360. A quadrilateral is just two triangles glued together. So the angle sums become double that of a triangle. Two times 180 is 360. A Euclidean triangle, always the angle sum is always 360, excuse me, 180 degrees. That is a Euclidean property. In hyperbolic geometry, because of the curvature, you actually see the curving, it curves inward towards the middle of the triangle here. And as such, these angles will actually give you something strictly less than 180 degrees. So this is an example of what looks like an equilateral Euclidean triangle. This is an example of an equilateral hyperbolic triangle. These angles are not 60 degrees. They're smaller than that. And a weird phenomenon of hyperbolic geometry is I can make the angle sum get smaller and smaller and smaller. I can make a triangle in hyperbolic geometry whose angle sum is less than one degree. I can make a triangle whose angle sum is less than one one-hundredth of a degree. I can make a triangle whose angle sum is one one-billionth of a degree in its size and you can make it arbitrarily small. Never equal to zero, but you can make it really, really small. And in terms, it's always less than 180. I can also get arbitrarily close to 180. And this is what's kind of weird in hyperbolic geometry. A small triangle will have an angle sum that's close to 180. But a big triangle will have an angle sum that's really close to zero. And so when your triangle is small, it looks like a Euclidean triangle. This is the business with manifolds we said earlier. Locally, it looks like Euclidean space. But globally is where you can see the difference. And so if we're just a small speck in the universe, it's very hard to tell the difference between a hyperbolic and a Euclidean triangle. Because in that situation, your angle sum is approximately 180 degrees. But it is less than 180, but it'll be close to 180. And the smaller you are, the closer it is. In which case, it might be so close that our instruments can't measure the difference. Yikes. What would an elliptic triangle look like? My diagram doesn't have this, but it bows outward. So here, your points are right here. Your angles will be these ones. These are gonna be up two singles. In this situation for this elliptic triangle, it kinda looks like it's a bloated triangle, right? Too much Thanksgiving. In this situation, your angle sum will be greater than 180 degrees, okay? But again, if you have a large elliptic triangle, its angle sum will be very, very far away from 180 degrees. But when you're a really small elliptic triangle, its angle sum will be very close to 180 degrees. So if you're looking at a triangle that's only just a speck compared to the size of the whole geometry, it'll be very difficult to tell whether it's elliptic euclidean or hyperbolic because they're all approximately equal to 180 degrees. But an interesting thing you can see here, take spherical geometry, for example. Take the equator, take the North Pole, and let's take some points here so that we get a right angle. So let's take, for example, we take two longitudes from the North Pole that form a right angle. It turns out that you have a right angle right here. These angles will be larger than nine, well, what I'm trying to say here is you can actually form a triangle with three right angles in spherical geometry. You can actually make these angles can be bigger than right angles if you wanted to. They can get really, really big. But in particular, in elliptic geometry, you have a three right angle triangle. Don't right angles have to be unique, right? Something like this. That's why you think about trigonometry, but oh wait. The trigonometry you're used to is probably Euclidean trigonometry where you use things like sine, cosine, tangent. So Catoa. Well, turns out those objects are inherent to Euclidean geometry. Circular trigonometry as they're sometimes called. But in particular, this is Euclidean trigonometry. And hyperbolic geometry, trigonometry gets a little bit weirder. You actually use something called cinch, hyperbolic sine, hyperbolic cosine, cosh, and hyperbolic tangent. It turns out that an elliptic geometry, you can also use some of the... I won't go into the trigonometry of elliptics, at least not right now, but I want to be aware that the trigonometry you study like in an SUU, that's the math class math 1060 trigonometry. That is Euclidean trigonometry. If you did trigonometry in hyperbolic space, it would be different. If you did in elliptic space, it would be different. Things like the Pythagorean theorem don't hold anymore in hyperbolic or elliptic geometry. Turns out that the Pythagorean theorem is actually logically equivalent to the Euclidean parallel posh. And you can't have the Pythagorean equation without the Euclidean parallel posh and vice versa. They're a package deal. You get one, you get both. And so, with that, I want to end lecture nine right here. And this was meant just as an exploratory lecture. If you watched all these videos, you will have noticed that we didn't prove a single thing about any of these geometries. It was just exposure. I want you to get used to these ideas of non-Euclidean geometry, like elliptic and hyperbolic manifolds and such. You don't have to be experts of all of them, at least not at this point, but I want you to be aware of these things and realize that things in hyperbolic and elliptic geometry behave very different from each other. So in the next lecture, lecture 10, we're going to continue to develop Hilbert's axioms of Euclidean geometry. We've already done the first group, which is the incidence geometries. We took a detour talking about parallelism, but in the next lecture, we're going to introduce the ideas of the betweenness axioms and in the future, we'll talk about congruence, we'll talk about continuity, what those things mean, until we eventually get to Euclidean geometry. But the thing is, once we've developed Euclidean geometry, all we have to do is remove the Euclidean parallel postulate and replace it with the hyperbolic parallel postulate. And then we get a brand new geometry by switching one axiom. That was the beauty of Hilbert's axioms, they're independent of each other, so that all the theory developed up to Euclidean can be modified to hyperbolic in a very interesting way. And the discovery of hyperbolic geometry is probably one of the most important discoveries ever made in the realm of mathematics, at least in the realm of geometry for sure.
