We've had quite an interesting 24 hours, haven't we? And we've seen some pretty exciting things happening in the crypto digital asset sector and traditional finance And I got to ask you the question then is how long can this really last? Especially since it really does appear that the government just might be working against us I'm gonna take a look at some documentation from Nick Carter and also what's going on in the market right now Which of course everybody knows because they've been checking their portfolio religiously probably the last hour maybe 20 or 30 times we can see that the price Are going up quite quickly Bitcoin at 30 and BNB USD. I mean everything's up right USD coins up 3.2% I mean after it got DPEG and you see that's over time. It's been pretty good these the days These the days of why I DCA because on these days when things are up you have your options aplenty you can keep Accumulating you can sell everything You can take profits and go along your merry way now me myself and I I'm in the camp to take profits every so often Does that mean I'm gonna start to sell all my Bitcoin? Yeah, probably not But maybe I sell some altcoins because maybe they might go down. Yeah, probably so So just remember that and remember the rules underneath me don't invest money before to lose everything's a scam Don't even exchanges. Don't use leverage take some profits along the way might help you not financial advice That's just what I do and the thing that I would what got me today was okay We're a pretty big time which is nice, you know, how about when's the last time you can remember Bitcoin being up 1516 percent in 24 hours. I can't remember the last time either What I have a question I had was because of all these things that are going on with the banks Silvergate signature Silicon Valley Bank what happened today with traditional finance did they fare? Okay? Well, the banks didn't do so hot and all honesty the S&P 500 pretty darn decent for The uncertainty that is the market over the last I mean this last day 3861 just down just a little bit over five days down one month down six month still time And we take a look at Nasdaq not too bad. It kind of it would it closed at 11,000 138 What about five days down one month down six months? Yeah pretty much down and of course in crypto You look at the last week or so. I mean, we're doing pretty good So I'm not saying that we are going to decouple forever, but as far as like where things are going. Yeah, we shot up quite precipitously Anderson markets had gone down quite a bit and that's essentially is what's going on a nutshell But the big question is how long is it's gonna last? And are we going to see more rate hikes? Well, the first thing and I could just hear a collective groan When I pulled up this video This is the president United States. You don't know who that is that is president Joe Biden And he gave a whopping five minutes presentation about what happened Today, I know some people glanced over it, but I got to tell you for it was just for one minute That he said some very interesting things talks about losses Who's gonna get fired and of course what this means for the investors? So I just want you to take a listen to what he says here That's only a minute long and just tell me if you think he's in the right in the wrong taken action And here are the highlights first all customers who had deposits in these banks can rest assured I would have rest assured they'll be protected and they'll have access to their money as of today That includes small businesses across the country the bank there and need to make payroll pay their bills and stay open for business No losses will be and I want this is important for it. No losses will be borne by the taxpayers Let me repeat that no losses will be borne by the taxpayers Instead the money will come from the fees that banks pay into the deposit insurance fund Because of the actions of that because of the actions that our regular is already taken every American should feel confident Other deposits will be there if and when they need them second the management of these banks will be fired If the bank is taken over by FDIC the people running the bank should not work there anymore Third investors in the banks will not be protected That's it. The rest is nonsense But and yes, I did speed it up because unfortunately President Biden speaks so slow. I sped it up. That's not his normal Cadence of what he's talking, but I thought it was interesting that he said look if FDIC comes in and takes a picture bank over You're all fired amazing and then Lastly he talked about investors if you are an investor In these banks, sorry, you just lost everything now again. They're going to Give everybody all the depositors all their money back and that's the big thing because this is all a confidence game which is be honest it is a confidence game and You know, honestly, they did a pretty good job here of reinstalling confidence Now does that mean that this is the right way to do things and fractional reserve banking is awesome? No, it's awful, but this is the system that we have and if they didn't do take some actions I think it would have been a lot worse. So on top of that I Also had a this was a nice piece this was from CNBC squawk box and This is Mohammed L. Arian Alliance advisor president Queens College Cambridge and Economist and he asked was asked the question is a pretty smart answer. He said they asked him, you know Hey, are we going to see more bank failures? Limits and are we gonna see more rate hikes because that's what everybody Everybody and their mother is now saying that no the Fed is going to stop the rate hikes They're going to start put pulling on the printer and we're going to see more quantitative easing and L. Arian who's been writing a lot of things gives a different opinion. So this was this is about a minute and a half Okay, so is the bigger concern next whether other banks will have similar issues or is the bigger risk that the feds Going to have to not raise rates next time around and that inflation Continues to rage on it. Maybe it's further out of control So three things one, it's important to stress depositors should not worry your deposits are fine and There's no need to be trying to move your deposits. I know I know there's an inclination to do so I heard what you did Becky. I know there's an inclination to do so because after all it's better to be safe than sorry But honestly, there is no no risk to your deposits anymore. That's a clear message Above $250,000 or below like would you say that there's no I mean deposits that I'm sure we're on out It is almost impossible now to go back on unlimited deposit guarantee And you know what there's a case for them deposits are right at the top of the castle structure. They are very different from Bonds from unsecured bonds from equity and the positive shouldn't be expected to be able to do the risk assessments that equity Holders and bond holders can do so, you know, I'm actually quite sympathetic. It's not a great way to do it But I'm quite sympathetic. I wouldn't have gone as far as they did but I understand what they did So that's not the case but however people are revisiting rightly the value of bank stocks and bank bonds and Then markets have basically voted already that the Fed will now back away from its inflation fight And that's not good for them Two things first of all It could be right and he could be exactly correct that there are no rate hikes But I did like this little piece here where they put it in very big bold numbers Bitcoin surges 5% as you can see all the numbers for the regional banks as they as they go down Now I'm not a hater on the banks because you have to remember that each one of those banks Yes, it does represent for management and yes, they may have been doing some Maybe not some greatest things. I mean again, these are all just they're not the banks that screwed up These may be the banks that just are are down the hill in the in the smaller versions That represents right there potential people losing their jobs That is not just the banker of some mythical person. So try to remember those things now are the are all bankers awesome No, they're not all awesome, but just remember there is a person behind that number. So What Eulerian did talk about there is rate hikes I personally and we'll see if this is gonna be true because the Fed means gonna come out So relatively soon if they're gonna if they're going to raise or not raise and from everybody I've talked to everybody that said is like they're going to definitely not raise the rates whatsoever. I Still think they could I still think they could I mean at least 25 basis points and 50 is not off the table Now if they don't if they don't do that they say, yeah, we're gonna do it So what if they don't do it? So now we're gonna have to go through more inflation because of these banks Well, they keep breaking things. Well, that's their thing to realize and there's a ton of different Opinions out there and I'm not here to tell you which one is is correct or totally right I just do my little thing in the background and off I go but the bigger thing you have to think about is this Is there somebody working against us in the background when I say us? I mean, of course the crypto investors and this one really made me think This was from the tweet From that's not Nick Carter, but that's a picture. He's got this from Nick Carter. Who's Nick Carter? It's a great question so that's Nick Carter right there and He is general partner at Castle Island Ventures Board chairman of coin metrics host the on-brink podcast advisor to Bitcoin clean energy initiative And he's been on a couple different shows very smart well-spoken individual This is him on Lex Freeman debating if Bitcoin is good for the entire globe or not Smart individual knows what he's talking about but there was this this tweet that he took from a CNBC article and What it's all about is about the signature bank because I just like you was I Just thought that Silicon Valley it was just too much risk and there was a run the bank and so happen with signature bank as well That's not what apparently happened And it states here for his part Frank Who helped draft the landmark Dodd Frank Act after the 2008 financial crisis said there was no real objective reason That signature had to be seized. I think part of what happened was that regulators wanted to send a very strong Anti-crypto message we became the poster boy because there was no insolvency based on the fundamentals What are they talking about? Well, the same thing here that Nick Nick talked about This is dear God Barney Frank only met signature was arbitrarily shuttered despite no insolvency He quotes it from the article and where he gets this information from is this because many are saying Frank isn't impartial Here's some more evidence signature asset portfolio was nowhere near as troubled as Silicon Valley Bank Sellside felt signature was sound yesterday. The FDIC just Was surprised themselves as the as the government took over and you see here Here's the unrealized losses on securities total value percentage wise and it's kind of hard to see I try to zoom as I can but here's Silicon Valley 80% That's a lot of loss. So okay, you got me on that one But right next to them is Bank of America. Look at those unrealized losses pretty good next one I can't read USB Okay, first Republic then then there's Wells Fargo then Hurlington then JP Morgan and PNC then Citibank and here's signature Right there So look at their losses. So the question is well, why would they do that? That doesn't make much sense And he comes out and says lastly don't think Barney Frank has a reliable read on the situation the Frank and Dodd Frank former chair of the house financial services committee I just can't help you And he talks about how this is probably just going to wear down on the crypto market at large Because that was one of the crypto banks that's Four exchanges can use as on and off ramps they can store their their cash value But it really come down to this You can put the pieces together, but I'm just gonna have you watch this video. This is a great video from guy over at coin bureau and what he talks about Is cbdc is coming in the time frame for which they're coming in and more importantly When fed now is coming in and how it's going to all operate here in the states And as it branches off into the world and it's amazing how this video Pretty much talks about what nick is talking about here and you can really put the pieces together I don't want to put it together for you watch the video and you can make your own assumption about what's going on But it is quite odd That signature bank Was taken over even though it looked like potentially Things were on the up and up so I'm going to think about that in the comment section and then To finish up. I know some people have been saying well now that's awful signature silvergate Silicon Valley Bank, which Silicon Valley Bank wasn't most mostly crypto was mostly avicii's investments Pretty pretty large bank but not specifically cryptocurrency digital assets per se But people are saying well now our big banks are gone And now we can't have on and off ramps. Well first off for retail I mean everybody's most people's banks use it. I don't know about you. I've got a couple Like I actually four now, but I mean they all use it. I can all use it To buy on coinbase. The big question is is how many of those big banks are going to allow like a coinbase Like a crack in like a finance to use their services here in the united states So they can park The people's dollars in their bank and some people say well, that's it. It's it's gone But there was a quote from yuga.eath. I This is the one to follow yuga is Was working on for the last two years Wallet as a service at coinbase. It's a new product that I think is going to change the game for for a lot of different businesses And he says look he or she I don't know he says look this is false He goes, uh united texas bank western alliance bank jp morgan chase and bank of new york melin the second or first Oldest bank in the in the u.s. They all have crypto businesses as customers and there are probably more my thing is like this Banks are just businesses And if they see an opportunity hopefully they would swoop in i mean me as a business owner I would say look if you don't have a bank and I have the opportunity to service you and I can get paid fat fees Why don't you just come this way? That's what I think will probably happen. But regardless yuga to eath says hey look there's also banks right there So it's not like we're totally shut out. So don't let people fool you on that one And lastly, I just want to finish up with this There's been so many things that are going on And so many different collapses and so many different issues and we've gone through all the the nonsense and Not just in traditional finance obviously on our side We've got the block fi and the voyagers and the celcius and the ftx and things like that I just want to remind everybody that we're not perfect. Nobody's perfect This was a quote or a tweet from svb silicon valley bank, which they actually deleted their their twitter account And just so many weeks ago. They put out this is a look. We're proud to be on forb's annual ranking of america's best banks for the fifth straight year And have also been named the publications inaugural financial all stars list. That's svb and they just went down So I just said look don't beat yourself up if you get into an investment It just doesn't work out these things happen Not everybody's going to shoot for the moon and hit the moon and get those lambos. It's just how it is So Don't take it too hard Try to diversify as best you can enough. I mean I can't say it's not funny. That's pretty solid financial advice honestly to diversify just a little bit And uh, you know, don't crush yourself because things don't work out. Sometimes you got to spray and pray That's it. So this is my little diversification pinwheel So right now i'm heavy cash and I got stables and yeah usdc What are you going to do? It's 1% not going to crush me or 100 some d gen plays masterworks fractionless shares of art You got land and properties, which is nice the amazon business Some stocks and things like that So i'm not under the assumption that i'm a genius investor.  They are a sponsor of this show not a sponsor of this video But there's a link in the description You can check it out to invest in a fractionless shares of artwork And I gotta tell you After what's going on the banks, maybe it's time to look at and also check out this video from upper echelon I put in the playlist Where he talks about what kind of investment it is just something to look at And that's it for today. So look There's a lot of stuff to go over Not too bad actually and I usually I'm I was I've been trying to get away from the live streams And then of course when these big things happen, I do a live stream or so long because there's just so much to talk about But I think this might let something else crazy happens tomorrow I'll probably just do a regular video, but that's it for today. So Like this video thumbs up like it subscribe all that good stuff now if you want to we'll do a chat What is talk back and forth and I'll answer any of your questions and we'll go from there So you got to take off adios. Otherwise, let's see what you got Rivers This is a good this is a good quote Seems like we Always have money for the losers and risk takers, but never for hard working citizens of the nation It does seem like it's skewed that way, but in this instance For every depositor you gotta remember You know every depositor That's and not even people with 250,000 or below 250,000 above doesn't matter The government did say hey look and I know people like Get ticked off when I talk about regulation for some reason. I still think we should have a little regulation Call me crazy. I don't think we should allow centralized exchanges to you know commingler funds and By condos for their family members call me nuts Maybe a little clarity of what a security is I'm just not going to go off base, but you get where I'm coming from So like in this situation worked out pretty well, right For the depositors and again, there's this I forgot to say this one. This was a great quote from Defi defied dummy And this is what I was talking about about this.  How is the average burger flipping joe supposed to do his own research? That's like saying pilot the plane yourself if you want to travel and it's true I say do your research just because it's like a blanket statement, but in all honesty, you could do it Thousand hours of research and you still won't get it right not even Warren Buffett shoots a thousand so Sometimes you just got to invest and Pivot when you when when things change it's what never that's what always never I always don't never understood when people will say rob. Why'd you change your mind on this project? Well, because I found it It sucked. That's why Like oh, you don't like it anymore. I'm like no So anyhow, that was a good one Christopher says they will stop the hikes. They may that'll be good for the short term And I'll put the big up for the long room the long term Yeah, I'm limited deposit guarantee means I'm limited loans. They're running banks banks After three target crypto banks were said exactly right Just think about the whale banks that bought crypto. I don't know if they did buy crypto remember also, you know these uh cryptos and digital assets are going up because Binance also converted all their stable coins into bitcoin ethereum So there is that aspect up to I want to say it's like a billion dollars. However If that is the case, what's the volume? Well, it's interesting the volume over 24 hours Is 69 billion 928 million 630 thousand 341 interesting What and the volume of bnb is one billion But I guess their market cap is it's all that's sort of my market cap. That's true But yeah, when people say that the banks are buying I don't buy that but I could be wrong It'd be interesting. I just don't see it If you want to find a guy to watch for That has the best glasses in youtube you got to watch tom crown the best glasses Like I don't even wear glasses and he's got him on lockdown. Also if you want to learn how to trade That's another thing glasses and trading definitely watch tom crown It's up tommy Ah lucas bradley. I had no idea bernie frank was on the board at sancher Yeah, look at that. You think he would know Uh Capitalism is winners luces and bailouts. This is true spiciest at times tom is uh pretty bullish Okay, so for all that Thank you. Thank you wrenches get rid of uh Get rid of the premium goat. It's too much Diesel I sent you a message on twitter my bank has no issues The question then and tom brings stuff is who's going to be the next bank to fall. That's the question Uh watch tom stream. He actually went over that Bicky on twitter. Thank you Hector domino effect Yeah, I mean this will be the last one for a while You'll see Why thank you It's uh good lighting And uh sun And because I don't do so many live streams, I get to go out and play volleyball one of my needs not all messed up Thank you vacation. You're welcome. Thanks for the update sharing SVP signature and silvergate uh Interesting apid artist rob the government bailing out depositors of sv shows that they could also build the depositors Of all the crypto platforms that went down But they won't because they need to prop up the corrupt banking again Watch that Crap, you know what I forgot to tell everybody Was that video from guy is right here in the description But if you can if you search for coin bureaus the first one comes up It was really good Even even me. I was like, oh, I did not know That the fed now is coming that fast kind of scary and I'm not a big uh You know, they're all against me type of person, but what guy was talking about did make a heck of a lot of sense scary Mr. Two-point fantastic question. We do that 25% just waiting for any good opportunity crashing crypto equity something else real estate because If you don't know like ebb and dollar cost averaging the regular amount for I want to say a month now I was micro DCing that cash is uh the majority of that will go to fund New properties that are going to be distressed and that day is coming fast I don't know if it's going to come tomorrow or six months or a year and a half from now. I'm not for sure But I know they're coming and that's what happens Happened in 2008. It's what happened in the 80s. What happened in the 70s and it's going to happen again This is true That's very true Money on bank or bitcoin In all honesty, I mean you can still do the things in the bank It's not like the banks are going to let you down right now and people I know everybody's like everybody will tell you Take that money out of the bank and da da da You can do that But then you got to stick on your mattress. I don't know if that's uh the right thing for you to do The best thing I can tell you though is if you have any of your crypto on exchange, why do you do that? It's very simple There's this thing. It's called a nano ledger I talk about all the time and you can buy them quite cheaply even at best buy And I show you how to use them on dan teaches crypto Which is dot com, which is free So for that one, I can't help you But that's okay John says with all these banks going on to deposit my cash for the safety of the Sinaloa cartel bank Look, if anybody knows how to move money, it's those guys. Uh, let's be honest I know if look burn inverse your own research desert dog Uh Andrey's got a good point. You need to get more and more deflationary. Nothing to see here though. It's a great website Sound dot money. I don't think you guys have ever seen this one I guess it's not there anymore Okay, that's why it's called ultrasound dot money. Let me show you what I'm talking about as far as deflationary website ultrasound dot money and You can have it to simulate a proof of work or you can switch over And have a proof of stake and what it shows you is the amount of e-supply as it went from proof of stake Which is what we have right now And let's see current supply issuance supply growth is negative zero point four seven percent a year burn So now so it looks like a deflationary But if you want to switch it over to what it was when it was proof of work So it'd be three percent of proof of work If the year issuance four thousand, let me see the other one So, yeah Just deflationary for right now. So andrey's got a point. I gotta tell you me personally I was a little bit hesitant to talk up ethereum. So I always thought there was gonna be an eth killer out there I did think that But I gotta tell you after talking to a lot of these different Projects we're trying to launch our own Not our own crypto. It's a flappy bird. It's i've been talking about it for a while I see where they've got a stranglehold in a lot of places unfortunately But that's it The William O'Leary says bitcoin be down to 12k in four months Bill could be right. You never know Uh, rob you watch the lin allen interview on what bitcoin you had fed is broke. What's your thoughts? No I have and I probably will Lin Alden such as She's smart Very smart sometimes goes over my head and like what I had to rewind it and play it back again Lin was also on ben's show. That was a great one. I watched that a couple times very well done Love interviewing 100 we can do better. Yeah I'm happy enough with that. Let's see a merit raid No way starling bank uk's banal crypto transactions are out. Well Not everybody got the memo And here's the thing you have to understand This is going to happen Some banks are just like we don't want to be a part of that. That's just we just don't want to do it We just don't want to deal with it. That's fine That's the economy. That's the uh free trade So that's the market if they don't want to do it then you move on Unfortunately, the question that you might have is well, will all banks do this? No, I don't think so and if they will I just don't see it happening. There's too much money to make and let's be honest banks are greedy Yeah, that could be true Joshua says how hard is it to move to Puerto Rico? If you do a search for digital asset news, Puerto Rico, there'll be a couple videos that come up Watch those videos. Watch the the latest one.  I don't blame you I don't blame you Let's see Hector's got a good point. I keep hearing this the last one for a while As far as you know, I kept hearing Hector was this I kept hearing That's the last black swan. We're not gonna this is it You know the bottom's in black swan that you know, we're not going to keep having these And seem like every every time that I turn the on the TV. There's a black swan event now This black swan event did pretty well for crypto investors, correct? We're doing pretty nice Almost up 16 but in all honesty like How long can we maintain this? Moving forward. I don't know for sure But I know I would take a little bit of me personally took a little profits today Yeah Yeah, you're right Rob, I said it before but landlords that earn a lot of passive income have a better than a vast majority of workers Some of us can't afford to be there though. No It's true. But the thing is is that you can at some point get there I mean look at like look so And like when I was growing up it was just uh, me and my brother was my mom.  That was pretty awesome But then, you know, you you get over it's like I was like, well, I gotta make some money High school didn't do so hot one of the military and that's pretty much Coming over the hump and you just kind of figure out like, okay There's something that I can do. I gotta start from bottom and just slowly but surely and then, you know, you get into like your 40s or Pushing 50 and all of a sudden you're like, oh All this stuff kind of worked out and it doesn't matter if you didn't make it before Doesn't matter where you started just matters where you where you try to finish up. So Everybody can start I start somewhere All right, I got you biggie. I saw your message In your view is this recent pump on crypto sustainable. Yeah, it's sustainable in the fact that if if people keep hearing about more bank insolvencies and If the government doesn't see it or they just more banks have to go down Then yes, it is sustainable because people are like, what's that? Bitcoin that all my friends keep or my friend my crazy one friend keep telling me about that's me. I'm that friend Maybe I should look into that because maybe I can actually have access to that and that could be like my hedge against Banks collapsing wouldn't that be crazy if it wasn't the financial ruin That did it and it wasn't a housing market crash that did it And it wasn't inflation that did it. It's just a bunch of banks Going bust that brought crypto to the forefront and just made this enormous This said this enormous bull run That'd be interesting Yes, I'm just got a good point. I show my wife. You're how to do a ledger video just in case I die She booked one of the website great. It'll be up for the end of time. Well until I go away Thank you everyone Yes, uh jade crypto in my jam that was a that was a Great interview. I need to link that Hmm Rob one Australian vision mate. I've never been there. I should probably go there pubs. I like that pubs and dogs even better Tito's got a good point and the point is polygon Yeah, the next flex one is Duncan don't it's going under let's hope not I gotta keep this svelte body up The body's run on Duncan Huh I shorted from 25k took problems 19k. I tripped my money pulling out my profits and kept my initial in And I got liquidated. I'm building a new short position. Well All right Yeah, I mean it's just Like I said, it doesn't matter where you start Thank you What will it mean if eth and other covers are deemed secure in the u.s What if you mean possible for the numbers of blockchain or register? Yeah, it'll it'll be possible The thing is here's a here's a scenario Gary wins out for whatever reason and he gets his way and everything is a security he gets Congress to agree with him Right because it's not Gary's job to write the rules. It's Gary's job at the as you see to enforce the rules. Unfortunately He 100% believes what he believes Or maybe his overlord tell him what to believe. I don't know but So gary is going to say that everything is a security The cftc is going to say no, no everything's a commodity So I don't see how they can start enforcing that without congress stepping in and going let us write the rules and the laws Because you guys don't know or we don't really know Where things lie, which I think is the smartest the smartest way to do it So we'll take a look at the how we test and maybe we'll update it. Maybe we'll do a new organization Barring all that Let's just say that they say, okay Ethereum is a security and everything else is security besides bitcoin Well, first of all the price of bitcoin is going to go to the fn roof Because people are like, well, great. I know I can get that on these exchanges Because now these exchanges have to register selling securities And the ones that they don't which is only one which is bitcoin They're all going to have bitcoin So people are going to start buying it up and the price is going to go crazy and whatever else So the ethereum foundation cardano and avalanche and all those different organizations are going to be like, okay Well, how do I how do we register our project with the sec? And they're going to have to do it. I have to jump through a bunch of hoops They're going to need a lot of money to do those things and the ones that can do that are the ones that are successful right now And actually have a good product the ones that are like ranked 900 800 700 Most those will just die because they don't have the funds to do it And they spent too much in the bull market because they were just a bunch of scams anyhow But the ones that are like mid tier The bigger the probably the bigger crypto products just like in the dot-com era the you know the facebook's the google's you know these big Titans amazons they're just going to buy up these these smaller crypto products absorb them into themselves and make themselves even better That's exactly what facebook did exactly what amazon does in google the same is going to happen with crypto They're going to absorb them and take all the developers all their ip then start to register with the sec And that's going to then they're going to be Put on some exchange the exchanges themselves are going to have to register just like how Every place that sells a security aka stocks has to do it themselves paperwork time and whatever else but in that timeframe Bitcoin should take off because it's the only crypto that people are going to be able to buy because everything else is stuck Because gary genzer for some reason got his way. That's in bizarro world I don't know that's gonna when I happen, but there's a reason Why bitcoins my number one hold in my portfolio? It's because of nonsense like that. So that's it. That's what I see other than that Who knows maybe the Congress will create a whole new governmental organization to oversee digital assets. That would be the ideal Truth no kidding golfer Too much stuff going on. I couldn't I couldn't just fit that into a regular video. I had to talk to everybody A polygon with zero points any advice on any on a projects be careful Because I don't really know if any of them are really worth their weight Like I I don't really get into them But I could tell you chat gpt and uh mid-journey Fantastic stuff. What do you think I get all the titles for these videos? Ah Yeah, alice crypto says this is unsustainable could be right Matt says, how do you feel about keeping fiat on coinbase? I pulled my crypto off to a ledger. Great. What about fiat? I said with loanors. What do you think in this situation? I think this could work out very well for matthew because he's got loan orders Maybe he sets in he's like look When bitcoin goes to 18k execute and for that, you know, might need fiat on there me personally Um, I don't do that. All I do is just set it up to to buy every day You know these different cryptos and altcoins But uh for you sure why not but the big thing is remember Uh You're probably doing this as you know every so many days start taking your crypto off as if it makes sense If you're buying 10 dollars of ethereum every day, there's no reason you have to Take your ethereum put on your nano ledger because just the uh the fees will crush you So jason goes rob. What's your view of more and more banks get bailed out? Is it worth increasing dollar-cost average amount and buy daily rather than weekly? Well, I can't tell you what to do, but I for me I dollar cost average every day and what I use is I use coinbase Because they have coinbase one and when you sign up for coinbase one It's 29 bucks a month, but there's no fees of the 10 thousand dollars if you pay for a year It's only 19 bucks a month, which is what I pay And every day I just buy crypto. It's the bitcoin ethereum cardano avalanche polka dot chain link near and some other ones I always forget about But yeah, it's like every day every week And as far as like if more banks get bailed out, honestly if more banks get bailed out I think that would instill more confidence into people I think one of the reasons why we see a little bit of a of a rally today Is that people are scared. I don't know where to put their their money even my brother Who is not a crypto person was like, hey, man, what I do with my money? I was like, well that stuff I was talking to you about a long time ago, which never did Maybe you should put into that And um, so yeah, I think as more banks get bailed out I know see me will say it's not a bailout. It's not a bailout That'll instill confidence and people will calm down people have a very short attention span and a memory. That's for sure So Noel says if our crypto are securities, can we manage our crypto by an accredited investor? I buy securities every day It's on on Robinhood They're stocks those are securities. So you don't need a creditor investor I mean to get some really good deals, which I got to tell you is probably the worst rule And I get the debate but it seems like if you make a lot of money, you can make more money because you're an accredited investor That's how I see it Tito says buy coin base if it drops below perhaps Yes Brad asked the question Weren't you the guy who believed Voyager was a good investment? Well, first of all, I didn't see their problems per se in the beginning But I believe that Voyager was great I thought it was a fantastic platform I like the fact that it was a brokerage and it would use different Crypto exchanges so it wouldn't go down So like if one exchange went down, it's okay because they would just use different ones And they would get you the best price they would they were supposed to Be taking profits on the spread Unfortunately everything works till it doesn't and then when Steve earlick the ceo decided him and his team decided to take a massive loan to three arrows capital uncollateralized And only because they are a public company were those documents released and within that was two weeks prior To when they shut down withdrawals and I took a look at that and said I can't use Voyager anymore I did a video on that and there is a link In the description Of every single one of my videos which talks about the zealousy as Voyager timeline And I said right here June 22nd take all your crypto off of Voyager. Here's the link to the video July 1st withdraws frozen So to answer your question brad you are 100 correct I did believe in Voyager And the anodism didn't believe in me and moved on So Yeah, John's got a good point on no rob. Something doesn't smell right feels like one big push up before a massive dump still next year Could be That's just it Like you know how you like I dollock I ladder dollocos average in I can dollocos average right out Maybe I sold some avalanche today Maybe I sold some near today just a little bit Just to have someone aside because maybe I think it's gonna down. Maybe it doesn't go down. Maybe it goes up It's okay. I've been buying every single day for a month. Actually, I've been buying every single day for Over a year and some change now, but to a lesser extent A month before called micro DCing it That's true This is what me and ben and guy talk about after the shows if we're going for a recession And he says if you haven't figured out another fetus spoon feeding us a recession, maybe so But it's what flavor are we gonna get that recession in? Is it going to be Red licorice or black licorice? Is it going to be a soft landing or a hard landing and that's the big question? Yeah Jay today says rob weren't you the guy who said to walk shoulder? Yes. As a matter of fact me and meme and lucas and uh Max and brine people who are in the chat right now We meet at amigos de los animales on sunday eight in the morning here in Well, it's in portorico But it's just in louisa And we walk the shelter dogs On the on the boardwalk very nice takes about an hour or so dogs really love it I love to do it and people come out and support me. So I appreciate that and I buy them breakfast It's a pretty good deal. Although no one really takes me up on that breakfast offer for some reason Everybody wants to pay for themselves Because I think they're just a bunch of ballers We'll find Yeah And that's it And then what are the fair offense is I can't see how this ends well with money printing inflation Fair offend neither did I that's the big question, but that's it for today. So look everybody. Thanks for stopping by Listen to us going on tomorrow. Just be a regular video probably not another live stream until the weekend But that's it for today. So thanks so much. I appreciate it Thumbs up like it subscribe and good luck For this week. I'll see you guys on the next one adios


This is Jennifer Gonzalez. I'm here for Cult of Pedagogy and today I would like to talk to you about using a notebook for classroom management. This is a two-parter. We'll start with part one. Notebooks as sanity savers. This is for somebody who is still pretty new to teaching and for situations when you start to feel like your class is really getting out of control and you're at your wit's end and you really just don't know what to do. You've got a lot of kids talking, you've tried lots of different things, and you're maybe about to cry. So this is a really good emergency flotation device for you, a plain notebook, and this is something that I did many times in my first few years of teaching and even later when you start to feel that you're at your boiling point, you can just get a simple notebook, pick it up, open it to a blank page, sit down and start to write. You can stop in the middle of your teaching abruptly, you don't need to make any announcements or anything, just sit down and start to write. Every time I did this my whole class would be silent within 60 seconds because they were really confused about what I was doing. Sometimes they would talk to each other and try to figure out what I was writing or they would say she's writing down your name or she's writing a referral to the office or whatever. I would just be writing. Sometimes, a lot of times, I would be writing my own thoughts to try to diffuse them a little bit and get my anger out. Sometimes I would be just writing a little analysis of what was actually happening in the room. It would help me to sort of figure out where the problems were and so the thing that would really get the students is that I would write for a while and I would occasionally look up and not give dirty looks or anything just sort of thoughtful and it really caught them off guard and got them quiet. And the beauty of this is that it got my blood pressure way down and it got them calmed down and I was able to make a smart decision from that point forward instead of just reacting and blowing up. So there is a much more advanced way to use the same strategy for classroom management and I will talk about that in part two, but when you are in an emergency situation and you don't know what else to do to get through the rest of your class period, pull out a notebook and start writing. I'll see you in part two because once you've stopped using it as an emergency tool, you can actually use it in a more organized way, so we'll talk about that in part two. Thank you.

I think genes mean different things to different people. You'll ask ten different people and they'll describe it differently. I think it's very complex because you have coding sequence and then you have all the other sequences around it that regulate that. What we're learning are that a lot of genes are overlapping and promoters are bi-directional so they can work on two different genes.


Hey Co-Friends, I'm Bianca Renee, and you're watching Bianca Renee Today, and today I'm gonna be trying a new gel. Well, it's not really new, but of course it's new to me, because I'm a gel girl, but the name of this gel is a little risque. Okay, don't be mad at me, I'm just reading the title, but it's called Curl Defining Hair Jelly by Balmass Fro. Well, she just put that right on the bottom now, didn't she? I bet there was just one day where she was like, man, I just need a really bomb-ass gel, and then she just made it herself, or someone was like, hey, can I borrow your home concoction that you make? I need something to have a bomb-ass fro, and it just came to be. I'm totally making up that story, that's just how I'm envisioning that it all went down. But oh, look at this, okay, let's talk about the gel. Look at this round in here, bomb, look at the bomb, the peach, the booty, you know that stands for. And then a little afro, that's pretty cute. This is a Curl Defining Hair Jelly, I do like jellies as well as gels, 10.5 fluid ounces, this is a very new, small, woman-owned, black-owned brand, she's from New Orleans. Apply jelly between your palms and glide product onto freshly washed, detangled, and conditioned hair. It doesn't say to use after a leave-in conditioner, and when I went on her website, this is their only product. I'm not really mad at it, like if I were to ever create a product, I might just have a gel and call it a day. No flaking, no crunch, lasting results, and definition. Those are all good words, so I'm going to apply this on my hair. I think I have tried it before, as you can see, it's not completely full. I don't really remember my results, don't know if that's a good thing or not. But some of them I just do my hair to wash my hair, and then because I have children, I just put it up in a bun because mom life, and I forget to actually look at my hair, so let's see how this really does on a very, you know, me paying attention to my hair to have a day. I'm pretty excited to try this again because I did see some positive reviews from one of my friends, Alyssa Marie. She has a tighter curly hair texture than me, and I feel like if a product gives really good definition on tighter curls, then I feel like it has a really good chance of working on mine, and I love knowing that it works on different hair textures. Let me show you guys the founder. First of all, how beautiful and cute is she? So on the about me section, should I section for you guys? I guess, I guess I'll do what the bottle says. I'm doing four sections max. It says our founder and CEO, Sydney, is a curly hair enthusiast.  New Orleans native and a lover of all things natural hair. After trying almost every mainstream product on the market, she couldn't seem to find a product to give her wash and goes consistent results. Sure, there were things that got the job done, but nothing that gave her the volume and definition on day one hair that didn't leave her coils flaky and dry. Thus, bombast fro was born. Okay, I do like that claim because I agree there's a million products in the market and they work well, but that day one hair, that's the game changer for me. And I think when I did try this, I might have used a leave-in first. So that could have messed things up. So let's just try it just all on its own today and see how it does. You guys know I don't mind a crunch, so when products brag about not having a crunch, it doesn't really do it for me, but we'll see. I want you to use my product and gain all the confidence you need to walk out the door with that bombast fro and stunt. You know, I like her personality just from this description on the website. Trust in ingredients, affordability, consistent results, and confidence is what you will gain from bombast fro. Try it out. Your hair is going to be bomb AF. She's a feisty one, ain't she? Affordability. Let's see about that. Let's go to shop.  It's not in stores yet, but I'm sure she'll get there. It is $19.99. I don't know if I can say, like when I think of affordable products, I am thinking more of like the $10 range. $20. I mean, if it works, it works. You guys know a lot of my favorite products are around that price range, so you know, she's not crazy for that price, but I just don't know if that would be considered affordable to majority standards. But I mean, if it is going to be magic in a bottle and give me bombast results, then the price could be right.  Like if you could have one product that did everything you needed it to do, would you pay $20 for it? If you didn't need to use a leave-in and you could just use a gel, then you might be spending $10 on your leave-in and then $10 on your gel and then you're at 20 bucks a ways. Let's see how this does. Consistency, it is very jelly-like, so it kind of has more of a drip than a gel would. What's it smell like? It smells good. It kind of, what does it smell like? It doesn't have a strong scent, so it's not going to bug anybody. It's very lightweight. I do see the second ingredient is glycerin, so should be moisturizing even though it's just a gel. There's no sulfate parabens or silicones. Well, that's good. Smoothing this down, smoothing your hair is always going to reduce that frizz. What's that? Okay, so that shine is definitely shining. I kind of want to see how this does like air dry. I want to see what kind of cast it dries to before I diffuse. It still feels pretty light, so I could see that there would might not be any crunch, but let me let this air dry for a little bit. Then I'll come back and see how all this curl-defining hair jelly really works. And I'm back. It is looking very shiny. The curls are defined. There's not a lot of crunch, which always makes me nervous, especially if I'm going to diffuse. I mean, it looks really pretty. I'd be really curious to see how this does on type four hair or like a tighter curl or coil. But I mean, that's what she has. So if it works on hair hair, that's you always got to think about when the owner of the company has curly hair. It's a little bit more trustworthy than just like some random brand that's just trying to throw it out there. But when the people that have created the product have curly hair themselves, you got a little bit more to go off of. So I've seen it work on her hair and go to their Instagram and see it work on other hair textures. I'm going to diffuse now and see if I can get a nice big fro or as close as I possibly can, just bigger volume on day one.  Okay, this is how we are. My hair is looking so nice and long lately. There is absolutely no crunch, super, very soft curls. Like not even soft, meaning no crunch, but my curls feel like moisturized soft. I will say I like this on its own more than when I used it with a cream that was just kind of like too much mushiness for my hair. So overall, I would put this in the same kind of category, maybe as like one of my favorite soft hold gels, which I don't honestly use a lot because I do like strong hold. I'm pretty surprised that she's from New Orleans and this is strong enough for the humidity there. I've never been there, but I'm pretty sure it's humid, right? So I don't see this having like a really strong cast to fight that humidity. Very interesting. But I mean, if she uses it on her curls where she lives, she obviously loves it. I would put this in the same category, maybe as like the TGIN gel or maybe the Races Curls gel. What's another soft hold gel that I actually like using? Maybe matrix, maybe twist. Those are all like the soft hold gels that I have and that I still like to use. I don't grab as often because I do like the crunch. But I know there's a lot of you that actually prefer the soft hold and a lot of you hate the crunch, even though you should be able to scrunch it out. But if you can't, this one, you don't have to scrunch it out. Like if you just want the beautiful, soft, flowy, bouncy, defined curls, you can get that with this curl defining hair jelly.  Your hair likes jelly and gel products. You want to be able to use a soft hold gel without having to use a moisturizer. You like a soft hold finish, then this could be the product for you. I will link her website in the description box below. I did just check and she's actually sold out. That's usually a good sign when a product is sold out. So that says something right there. So you might have to wait to order it. She might be opening up a pre-order list. I will also let you guys know on Instagram when she restocks. But go ahead, support her business, check it out.

We partner with other organizations to reach the vulnerable children in the society. That's why we do partner with homes to know the needs and the challenges that the orphans in this orphanage do encounter. That's why today we are at living ward, Africa living ward, orphanage, and today we were with our guests all the way from the USA, from the factory church, and today we just came here to show love to interact with the kids just like you are seeing, the guests having a good interaction time with the kids, playing games with them, just walking around to check on where they sleep and how they run their daily activities if they engage in other activities like farming. We are living in a place where we are living and we are not spending much time. I have a very bad heart because I'm a pastor. I'm a woman. I have had a lot of problems since I was a kid. I know I have a bad heart but I'm going through it. But I still have a bad heart because I'm a chief. A chief needs to know his brother, nashida yam toto, ambay alafu kumawatu na wapokia. Enyaimana ministri metutu ambali. Wali pokuja nili yongena sister Maria. Enyawa katembe akaona, aka sema aliona chochote ambay etu upungufu ambay li kuwa. Alafu mimi yongena pokuja, staki ni muwangeleshe sanata kaoni kwa macho. Sosa wali tembe akaona mahali shidaiko wamesha kuwa wakitu sa hidiya sa izimi ya kambili wakakuja wakapata wakutu hawa na tuta limali paku lala. Wakutu hawa na cha kula. Wakutu hawa na blankets, hawa na nets, na tulikuwa na maleri ya inatu sumwa. Maana waka ingia, wakatu patia matresses, blankets, sheets, na piya, aiku toshelea hapo. Bado anazidi ku tu patia cha kula. Mimi na wabishetuwa santi, mahali wame nituwa mimi. Kama siyo hao, sijuni ngekuwa waki. Na nina wafraia, na yote nina wawombia, siku moja, piya wata sa hidiya wengine, bili wamesha kuwa pismama na sisi. Na munga wabariki sana. They say water is life and it is also written that the Lord is the living water. So, what does Maurice think about this? I'd like to say that Maana Ministries brought us here, but you know God has a plan for everyone and I think he used Pastor Maurice to entice us to come here and I'm just so happy that we are here because you can see God's work, see his work and that right there is so fulfilling. God Jesus! Thank you for the water! Well the project was probably one of our most difficult ones. I will say that we started out drilling here and the water wasn't so good. So we had to make a decision whether to stop drilling or move forward. Stop drilling was not an option. So we continued. They added a purification system there and also it's run by solar. So you got plenty of sun here in Kenya and so it worked out very well and I'm just so pleased right now. My pastor is one that he started us on this journey. He said I want to dig wells in Africa. So we try to keep with his vision because God gave him those thoughts there and we are not ones to question what God tells someone else. We fetch water very far from here. It is very far and it is somehow healing. So when you go there, when you are old like me you can only go once. If you go twice, you'll faint. The beneficiaries of this water are the community around this area. Yes, because we don't have any water around. So the community is big. There is another primary school there called Alero. We come as far as about 500 meters from here. When there is dry season, when there is dry season there is a very big problem. You will get donkeys coming to carry water here. People will come with motorbikes but that area is very far and we have to line up. It is just a stream. It is water coming under the tree so it's not easy to get it. You can go there at Sakuminambili and come at Sambili. I would like to thank the sponsors very much and may God bless them abundantly. We welcome them again for other projects to come. We are longing for other projects to come. Not only this one but we are praying. We have faith in God that they will bring another project to us. One of the things that we do for our community is to provide clean water for our community. That is because we realize that one of the challenges that the community is facing that is actually resulting to some strange diseases is because of the contaminated water that the people use. Also the other thing was even those who use the contaminated water they had to walk long distance to be able to get that clean water. So one of the things that we are doing as mana missions we are trusting God to be able to provide clean water for the communities where we serve. And that we do by drilling water in partnership with our partners and so far we have been able to do several wells. We believe God that everybody that comes to mana chapel to mana ministries that we will be able to give God we will be able to give the living water the bread of life that is Jesus Christ and that is why we are reading there wherever enters through these gates will never come out the same. And we have seen lives being transformed at that chapel when they come to draw water until we change that chapel from mana chapel and now we call it the salvation well because a lot of lives have been given to Christ because of that well. By learning the art of walking with others and teaching them not to walk alone more so surely remain into people's heart as a hero with superpowers. And God has grown this ministry to in a way that every time I was in the states and in Europe and people ask me the question like Maurice we don't understand you how are you able to coordinate and work everything that we see on Facebook every day we see prison ministry we see widows home have been built we see children being fed in the slums of Kibira we see children as students being sponsored into high school into colleges we have seen pastors being trained Bibles being distributed are like orphanages, orphanage homes being getting support how are you able to do all this and I always say one it is the grace of God that is enough for me and two God has helped me with the kind of a leadership that is delegation of duty without dictating from the university Good News University Norway the dean of the school the council of the school they came we did a three days conference and after that they said the last day is going to be a special day we have something we have a surprise and then I had so many people come in Nairobi and that afternoon they say come over and when I came over they were coming from that room I couldn't control myself with the doctorate gone made all the way from that university with every attire for doctorate degree and they honored me with the doctor of ministry in Christian missions and from that day you will hear a lot of people calling me Doctor Morris, Doctor Morris a lot of people think because of my education but it is a honorary degree that God made possible all the way from the university of Good News University Norway they came they gave me a gone and I am so happy I did not just graduate and return the gone I have it and I use it to graduate my girls when they are passing through the training and stuff like that and also do that when I am attending some occasions and it's something that really makes me to feel that God has really fulfilled my dream doctorate degree then my neighbors who came new in our neighborhood they thought I am a medical doctor so when they have issues with their health in the morning I would find somebody knocking on our gate and like hi is doctorate around our son is called Valsing and we don't know what to do we come and help us with some remedials and like oh my good what do I say say well I am a doctor but I have to explain I am a doctor but I am a doctor of prayers can I go and pray for her yeah I will pray and after praying then we need to take the child for test I don't have tools I wish I had tools I would have helped you so it's interesting but that's what God does He gives to name to those who had no name Director Morish Odiambo is an open minded person a compassionate person and he is someone who is easy to work with because he takes his time to listen to the people that are under him he takes his time to work on the plans and the vision of the organization I can also say that he is somebody who is not shaken by the challenges that he faces as a vision bearer and that's why he has taken Mana Ministries International to be where it is because of his wisdom and his open mindedness My name is Cecilia Ucheng I'm a student here We do fashion and design It's about the institution because they promised us that when we are done with the cause because many of us cannot afford it so we will be given the sewing machines on our graduation day when you are receiving your certificates you also receive with a new sewing machine My name is Evelyn Cherotich I am a carpenter and I am a computer I am Shukrani and I am Shukuru I am Maisha Aitu I am a computer engineer I am a computer engineer I am a computer engineer I am a computer engineer I am Shukuru


SEGA GAAAAA DRUNK! The more I dive into the Sega Genesis catalog, the more games I'm finding that are retroactively making me insanely jealous that I didn't get to play these games as a kid. There's the obvious stuff like Sonic, but also X-Men 1 and 2, Shining Force 2 and 3, and now there's Mutant League Football and Mutant League Hockey. Let's start with Mutant League Football. This one came out first in 1993, and since it's made by EA, the gameplay is pretty much aped from the Madden series, Madden 93 to be exact, and it plays almost the exact same way. Only the playbook is a little bit more streamlined. The main difference, of course, is that the players are all hideous mutants, aliens, skeletons, among other things, with team names like the Screaming Evils, the Psycho Slashers, and the Killer Convicts. And in a really nice and unexpected touch, even the players have names like Vomits and Slayer. Some guys are even based on real players like Jerry Rice and Lawrence Taylor. The thing is, though, the gameplay here isn't just the same old boring football. You play on ice or the moon or toxic waste, for example, and there's land mines and bottomless pits scattered across the field. All the usual game modes are here. There's multiplayer, there's a playoffs mode that sets up a 16 team playoff where you can save via password, and in each game you can set up what's called a death index, which is kind of a makeshift difficulty setting that sets up the likelihood of injury or death to players. So yeah, players can use their health or even die if they're tackled too often or too hard, to the point that if your opponent has too many players killed, they have to forfeit. That sounds pretty dark, right? Or Mutant League Football is anything but. This game is meant to be a parody of all things football. Even making fun of the dumb cliches that the players and coaches say by saying stuff like, I wanna see a much greater referee out there, I just don't want harder hits, I want major felonies. My favorite part of Mutant League Football is the referee. Either team has the opportunity to bribe the ref into making some shady calls, and conversely, either team has the opportunity to literally kill the referee at any point, although he'll get replaced by an even tougher ref. Murdering the referee? Five-yard penalty? Still first down. You see, this is a great example of a game where you don't have to know a single thing about football to enjoy it, because it can be just as simple as killing enough guys on the other team and killing the ref. And if you are familiar with football, you'll enjoy how this game makes fun of it. It puts football, something that's been ingrained into American culture for decades, into a new context that's ridiculous and absurd. And that's what makes it one of the most fun sports games of the 16-bit era, even if you don't like football. A year later came Mutant League Hockey, and yeah, this is almost the exact same game except with hockey, to the point that some of the same team names and even player names from Mutant League Football are here. And again, since it's made by EA, the gameplay is abe from the early NHL series, but yeah, there's pits and landmines on the ice. You play as robots, skeletons, and trolls, and you can freely hit and kill guys. You can bribe the ref to call fake penalties on the other team. It's the same kind of thing. There are a couple new things here, though, like the crowd tossing power-ups and other stuff onto the ice. You can replace your goalie with a demon head, and if you kill a guy, his corpse just sits there on the ice becoming a new hazard. Fights are handled in a kind of one-on-one fistfight mini-game where each player has a life bar, sort of like Blades of Steel in a way. Mutant League Hockey is fun, but it doesn't feel as fun as Mutant League Football, and I think that's because of the frame rate. Despite this game being based on EA's NHL series, the game doesn't really have the same feel to it. It plays a little slower and a little choppy.  I just wish it played as quickly and smoothly as the game it's parodying. Anyway, yeah, you can't go wrong with either Mutant League Football or Mutant League Hockey. They're both outstanding multiplayer games that anyone can get into even if they don't like football or hockey. It's too bad they never got around to Mutant League Basketball, as it was rumored at the time. Mutant League Football is usually around 20 bucks on eBay, while Mutant League Hockey goes for more than twice that. If you're going to get one of these games, I'd suggest Football. I just think the subject matter lends itself better to Football gameplay, and the hockey gameplay can be a little choppy. But yeah, if there's a franchise out there that desperately needs a revival, it's Mutant League.


We enter new years with the idea and the energy of changing our lives, not knowing that the things we most need to change are left alone, so we go to the gym and we leave alone the things that matter more than the gym than your physical appearance or losing a few pounds. That's all good, but what's killing us, what's destroying us, isn't the few extra pounds we're carrying that we lose at the gym, it's the massive tons of weight we're carrying mentally and emotionally and relationally that we are refusing to declutter from our lives.


Good afternoon everybody. It gives me great pleasure to be here moderating the panel of migrant voices. And indeed we have a very distinguished and interesting group around me today. All women as you can see, which is intimidating in itself, are all very successful. We have two people who are members of their national, either their national parliament or have been a member of their national government and we have two young children of migrants. And in many respects what we're looking at here today is the transition from being a migrant to being a diaspora and people who are living with the reality of this journey. We talk about migration in this hallowed chamber. We have interesting policy papers that are very important. But at the end of the day, the day-to-day life of the migrant, or of the diaspora, or of the second or third generation who's coping with the reality of a political scene that probably we'll hear from our guests, what they have to say, but I think the general consensus would be that the perception of migrants is not going through the happiest time at the moment. So without further ado, I will introduce one by one our guests and ask them to give a not too lengthy description of their personal journey and then we'll have a discussion about it. So to my right, I have the Honourable Jasmine Lee who's born in Korea and travels to the Republic of, born in the Philippines rather, born in the Philippines and then travels, and she'll tell you the story herself, travels to the Republic of Korea and is a member of the National Assembly.


can express or whatever. If you don't want to connect directly to them or you want to practice, you want to put together your own bank feeds to practice with, you can download this information from there or make your own file, which we'll take a look at in a second. So to download it, you go to your financial institution and usually somewhere there's going to be download account activity, which is different than looking at the reports. You're not looking at your bank statements or credit card statements because those will be in PDF format. We want this in a format that can be uploaded to the system, which will generally be, for example, oftentimes they have a QuickBooks format, which isn't QuickBooks online software, it's just like a data input format. So that one works pretty well and that most institutions have that. Quicken, you don't really want that one. And then if they don't have those, any of those, you can use the comma deliminated, which usually is opened in like a spreadsheet format. And then if you want to just practice, you can make your own file with a spreadsheet and then just create a comma deliminated or CSV file. So let's see what that looks like. So I'm going to go up top and just say that if I go back into my accounting and I go into my bank feeds and I want it to manually import. And by the way, you might want to manually import in situations where it's like you're going really far back, like you're going more than a year, like a year back or more, because sometimes you can get more data from the bank by manually downloading it as opposed to connecting to the bank. And then possibly you might want to connect to the bank after after that. That's one reason you might use a manual upload and practice other than just to practice with once you get the data in from the manual upload or from the bank feeds, you will be in what I call the bank feed limbo area where all the information will be in your system, but not yet used to create the financial statements. It's in limbo. It has not been brought through. It needs a little bit more information and some enlightenment in order to bring it on through the promised land to be used to create the financial statements. So we can up if I go to the dropdown here, then we can import the statement. So if I import the statement, that makes you think the way they worded that you're going to get the PDF file and import it. But that's not what's happening here. Instead, you're going to be importing these files that we look like. So download bank statements from your online banking. Again, you're not really downloading like a bank statement. You're downloading a series of transactions. You're downloaded like the bank feed. Now you could like those bank formats is an OFX, a QFX, a QIF. There's that QBO, which is quite common. And if usually most of them will have a spreadsheet format, which will be SCSV if nothing else, right? Now if you want to make your own, you can look at the template here. And like if you just want to make your transactions, you can actually just pull up the template and you can put your data input into this template, you know, date, amount, description, and that's it. And then you can upload your own data and you can play with the bank feeds that way. I'm going to be using this file. So I downloaded a file that looks like this. It's a credit card file. But it looks like a QuickBooks desktop program or something. But it isn't, if I right click on it and it is a, it's formatted, I guess by QuickBooks or they came up with the formatting or whatever. But it's not actually the source where it's just a data input format. It's just the way to format the data that can easily be brought in to these online applications. So it's a, it's an OFXdata.qbo. Okay. So let's import that in here. So I'm just going to say select the file. It's on the desktop, which is a messy situation. But I know where everything is. My desk, the top of my desk has a lot of stuff on it, but it's not like, it's not like I'm unorganized because you just don't understand how I organize it. So I'm going to upload it and it's uploading 16 transactions. So, okay. So then we're just going to complete the import and there it is. So now just to recap, if I go into my accounting transaction and I look at my bank accounts, I now have my credit card account has stuff in it now. So, so I'm going to go into, so it's all negative. Now you have the same beginning balance issue with the credit cards because it's only going to be pulling in the activity. So if you had activity before the time that you started putting the credit card in, you're going to have to deal with that beginning balance issue, which we might talk, we'll talk about in a future presentation when we do the first bank reconciliation. Once we're, we've done that, everything should run smoothly. It should be quite easy after that. If I go into the dropdown, the account transactions, we've got the account transactions on the right. These are the transactions that we have made. We don't have any because we're usually with the credit cards, we're going to be dependent on the financial institution to create the financial statements because they're perfect transactions to do that. I mean, we could have a system and in a full service accounting system, every time I make a purchase on the credit card, I would then record it as a purchase and then match it to the credit card using the financial institution as a verification. But we're getting to the point where the credit cards we're so confident in them and because the turnaround time is so fast that these are perfect transactions to just say, look, I'm just going to depend on the bank here. So in other words, when I record the transaction, I'm not going to record it on my side. I'm going to wait until it clears the bank, which should happen in one to three days. And then I can just record it that way. So, so I'm, we're so confident about these transactions that that's what most people are going to do. So that means we didn't record anything on our side. The bank is recording them on their side because this is what got pulled in from the bank feeds. So this is what got pulled in. It's not reconciled yet. We have the cash coding. Remember, if you don't see this, you can go into your user area and then just turn on the cash coding so that you can see the cash coding. If you want that, it's not on by default. You have to go into, you know, the users and then turn on in the banking section. I think the cash coding, we talked about that before. I won't do it again because we're running along here. And then if I go into the reconcile, so now we can build our financial statements. So this is what I call the bank feed limbo because these transactions have now been brought in from the bank, but they have not yet been used to make the financial statements. They're still missing something. Something's wrong. They're not quite there yet. They don't know, they don't have all, they don't have everything to be fully fulfilled and therefore be pulled in to the promised land. So what do they need? Of course, all we have, these are all going to be usually decreases. So unlike with the checking account, we don't really have deposits, but we have payments, which are kind of like, but really we pay off the credit card, but really every, all the transactions here are going to be expense type transactions and then we pay off the credit card, right? Those are the transactions that are going to be here. So usually the other side of the transaction, what we will construct is an expense for things that we're going to be purchasing, although we could have purchased inventory and fixed assets as well. So that's what we'll do next time. And as we do that, like with the checking account, we can add bank rules so that even though the first time we do this, it's a pain, but when we set it up properly and we do it well and we fully, we don't, we don't send, you know, people to the wrong areas, once we pull them out of bank feed limbo and then send them to like, to a bad, a worse spot and mess up the financial statements, if we set it up properly, then, then it'll be basically automated going forward and then things will be easy. We got to go through the pain to start and then, and then once we, once we, once we put in the work, man, you got to put in the work. I don't, I'm not going to say that for it. It's a trendy for it, but it's kind of, it's kind of applicable here because you got to do this, you got to do at the first point and then it'll be easy after that. So we'll start doing that in future presentations. No change to the financial statements yet. So we don't need to take a look at the trial balance or anything and we'll move on next time.


The American dream is not one dream it's a mosaic and that's the beauty and the strength especially in a state like California. We are one of the most diverse places on earth and that is our strength. Even though it has been 27 years since a California Republican has won a campaign for U.S. Senate, Duff Sunheim is not discouraged. The former California Republican Party Chairman says he is motivated by a desire to give everyone a voice in government especially college students such as ourselves. I do a lot of work in underserved communities. I've worked on education reform in East San Jose and I'm also a mediator for the federal courts and I'm a settlement judge for the state courts but I also spend a lot of time volunteering in underserved communities mediating disputes there as well and what I've seen in California is that we have an economic earthquake. We've seen the greatest accumulation of wealth and the history of civilization and at the same time we have 8.9 million Californians living in poverty. There are more people living in poverty in California today than there are people in 39 of the 50 states. Sunheim has five key issues he would like to focus on one of them being ease the squeeze. So what I want to do is to ease the squeeze that they're feeling. I'm seeing closets being ripped out and turned into bedrooms. I see whole families moving out of their apartments and moving into other people's garages and I just think there's something fundamentally wrong with what's going on in this state and in this country. So I want to help with stagnant wages get better jobs. You know the fastest growing path to the middle class in America today is not manufacturing or construction or small business. It's a government job so it's no longer what you know it's who you know and if you're a woman or a member of minority community and it's based on who you know rather than what you know that's a barrier and so I really want to improve the amount of jobs in the private sector better paying jobs. One so they're better able to provide for their families but two to provide opportunities in minority communities to be successful. Another key issue Sunheim places importance on is restoring a government of the people. We have the ability to talk with each other to work together so that's what I want to do. I want to shift power away from Washington and give it to the people not so that they can be left on their own but because I think together we can make a difference and so we need to have that accountability. We can't leave people on on their own. We need to develop a sense of we're all in this together and that's what this is all about for me. The American dream is not one dream it's a mosaic and that's the beauty and the strength especially in a state like California. We are one of the most diverse places on earth and that is our strength and we should return ourselves to a position of leadership and we're not going to have a position of leadership if we let all of the decisions be made in Washington DC. Even with the rigor of a statewide election Duff Sunheim is optimistic about the future of California helping other people achieve their dreams so whether I do it in the United States Senate or do it outside the Senate I'm still going to do the same thing but I think I can make more of a difference representing the people of California in the United States Senate and that's why I'm doing this. There needs to be a light Sean on the fact that in this university in this department you're not allowed to


here we conceive of the output as a sum of many shifted impulse responses that is one way to look at it, but often that is not what we want to do, we do not want to sit and put so many sequences down and add them, we would much rather find out the output point by point and for that we need to carry out a little more work on the expression that you have just got. Therefore, we will introduce some terminology now, you see this output Yn has been obtained by an operation between the input sequence and the impulse response sequence here and we will give that operation a name, it is an operation not between two numbers, but between two sequences. So, we are saying that the output sequence some operation is obtained by some operation acting on the input sequence and the impulse response sequence, it is an operation between two sequences and therefore let me underline sequence everywhere, it is an operation between two sequences, we will give this operation a name, we call this operation convolution and there is a reason why we give it that name, you see we typically use the term convoluted in common discussions or in colloquial terms where something is complicated or where something twists and mixes, you know one sometimes refers to a convoluted argument to denote a set of you know statements or a set of utterances or a set of justification which are very complicated to understand in which intertwined together in some complicated way and perhaps lead to a conclusion, but it is not at all straight forward to see how they start from the beginning and come to a conclusion, we say it is a very convoluted argument, right. Convoluted in general tends to refer to twisting and mixing together in a highly intertwined in a highly interactive way and in a minute we will see that is exactly what we are doing in a way between the input and the impulse response here. If you think of the input as a string of samples and if you think of the impulse response as a string of samples, what we are doing is to intertwine those strings together in a very complicated and a very fine manner to obtain the output, yes there is a question. Yes, so the question is that should we be writing the operation between the input sequence and unit impulse response sequence? Well the answer is yes, you know we have sort of ignored the word unit, but we will write that to be clear here. So it is the response to a unit impulse that is correct, one should in a way one should emphasize that it is the response to a unit impulse because otherwise you know it could be a scaled impulse too. Now you know we will try and understand both of these interpretations with a specific example. We will take a very simple input sequence and a very simple unit impulse response sequence. So we will take the input sequence and here I am going to introduce some notation once again for convenience. When we have a very short input an input which is non-zero only for a few samples we tend to use this notation where we denote the location of one of the points and then we denote all the other points around it. So we indicate it for example by showing that at point 0 I have the sample let us say 6 here and then I have 1-1 and 2 obviously 1 occurs at the point n equal to 1-1 at the point n equal to 2 and 2 at the point n equal to minus 1. Needless to say I mean just for the sake of notation I am trying to explain this notation. This is the same thing is writing all of them are the same. So we can write them in any manner that we please, but what is important is to mark one point and all other points follow from there. So here the question is you see the sequence is 261-1 respectively at the points minus 1, 0, 1 and 2. So therefore you could say that this sequence takes the value 1 at the point n equal to 1 and the other marks of course follow and similarly it could be marked at minus 1 and the other points obviously follow. So similarly let us take a very simple impulse response I mean of course a unit impulse response if you please, but henceforth when we say impulse response we will mean the unit impulse response we would not want to keep repeating unit every time. The unit impulse response is very simple it is just 1 and 1 respectively at 0 and 1. Now I shall obtain the output in 2 different ways and we will explain therefore the operation of convolution why it is called convolution. One way as I said is to use this expression with the interpretation that was shifting and adding the impulse response several times. So what would this mean? This would mean I have taken the impulse response I have shifted it by each k I have scaled that shifted impulse response by the value of the input sample at the point k and I have summed up all the shifted versions of the impulse response. So let us sketch that output let me remind you of the input once again what it would mean is I must shift the impulse response backward by 2 keep it as it is shifted forward by 1 forward by 2 and respectively multiply by 2 6 1 and minus 1. So here I am so you know x k h n minus k so k equal to I will write k and I will write this sample here. So k equal to minus 1 and I have 2 2 and this occurs at 0 k equal to 0 and I have 1 1 here for convenience I will put the 0 in at k equal to 1 I have I am sorry so this should be multiplied by 6 that is 6 and 6 all right let me you know let me complete this. So 1 at k equal to 1 of course I have 1 and 1 occurring at 1 and k equal to 2 I have minus 1 minus 1 at k equal to 2 these are the 4 x k h n minus k and now of course I add them. So I will have to you know let me draw it again let me put them down since the first time we are solving such an example we have 2 2 we have 6 6 1 1 and we have minus 1 minus 1. So of course and this is the point I will I will mark it from above this is the point 0 here. So I have of course 2 8 7 0 and minus 1 this is the output sequence y of n is that clear yes there will be follow this very doubts what is going on here is very clear from this example is that you can obtain the output point by point unlike what we are doing here where we are putting sequences and adding them up by looking at what is expected at each point you see what I mean by that is we reinterpret and let us do that.


Sometimes when you travel you just want to get where you're going, right? You don't always want to have to stay at a truck stop or a rust area or a Walmart. And you don't want to spend 50 bucks a night to make a reservation at an RV park that may be way out of the way just to drive there and go through the hassle of hooking up resting for a few hours and then getting back on your trip. Today I'm going to show you a trip that we took in September where we stopped at some amazing places along the way and to make it even better. They were fun, quick and cheap. Good morning Birdwatchers. It's Robin with Creativity RV and I've been wanting to bring you this video for a long time. Last September when Doug and I were still in the fifth wheel, we drove up to Sisters Oregon from California and every year I've done this trip I want to see a couple of things along the way but there's never a good place to stop and rest. I don't know about you but I like to drive about three four hours at a time. I don't like to drive 12 hours to get where I'm going. Forget about staying in a crowded campground they're all full and even if we could we wouldn't fit in one and all the boondocking spots were too far away so we used Harvest Hosts. If you don't already have a Harvest Hosts membership let me tell you I let my passport America go. I let Sam's Club go but I will never while I'm full-time on the road especially let my Harvest Hosts membership go. It's $99 a year and for that you get a list of thousands of places to stop and see and stay overnight and support the local businesses. When I've stayed with Harvest Hosts I see things I never would have seen otherwise and there's more of them than there are KOAs. So here's the deal it's $99 a year but I've put a link below that gives you 15% off and that gives you access to over 2,000 farms and museums and attractions and wineries and breweries and all kinds of places that you can stay and dry camp overnight. Now the rule of thumb is that you should spend about 20 bucks while you're there. I would spend 20 bucks at a Walmart if I were there. I don't want to spend it at Walmart. I'd rather support a local business. You guys know I'm a fan of Harvest Hosts. I think it's the most smoke and deal in the RV world but in this particular trip Harvest Hosts was more than half the fun that we had. When Doug and I left Bernie Falls, amazing in California, we stayed overnight at my first golf course ever. This is us. We pulled up right next to the green. It was gorgeous. It was private. I wasn't cramped next to somebody else. We took walks around the golf course. We had a lovely breakfast and then in the morning we just hooked up and went on our way to our first stop which was Lava Bed National Monument. There are over 800 caves in Lava Bed National Monument and we're not spelunkers so we stuck to exploring some of the easier caves. Oh that's crazy. Well now we have to turn around and it's dark. Wait for me.  Say something. Hi. Oh god it's dark. Dark. We didn't break our lights. It's just a dark cave. I don't know why we need a light. What could happen? Oh wow. It's deep. That's deep. What do you think Doug? Are you going to try and get down in there? I'm going to try and slip down and get down to that cave. We can do it. Let's go. We can sit right down. There's a great trail system that takes you to all of these caves but we have gotten to the difficult ones. I think these you have to crawl on your belly part of the way. We are not prepared for that. Oh you can go left or you can go right or we can go out. We can go out. After exploring all of those caves we were kind of wiped out but luckily our next harvest house was just half an hour away so we headed over there. It is a sustainable eco-friendly potato chip farm. You might not know this about harvest house but some of their attractions are not for profit. You're not going to buy wine or something like that and that was the case with this harvest house. This is a working farm owned by a family that sells their potatoes to potato chip companies like kettle chips. In fact they came and brought us some free chips when we first got there which was just lovely of them. Instead of selling us stuff what they did is they supported their local community using harvest house with their non-profit. In this case they support local kids in all of the rural communities so they can get together and get to know each other which I thought was great. So we donated our 20 bucks to that and then headed on our way to Chilican, Oregon. What's your name? Russ. Why do you volunteer here Russ? Because I've got nothing else better to do. Because I love it. Our next stop was the longest miniature hobby railroad in the world which we rode on and this place is also a non-profit. People that run this place are in love with trains and you can tell by all of the wonderful trains that they have on display here. After we found our camping spot which was nestled in a little wooded area right by the trains we paid our $20 donation and checked out everything else before we went back home and got a good night's sleep so we could hit the next place on my bucket list. Now Crater Lake has been on my travel bucket list for a long time and I've passed it like every year but it's a little bit out of the way and I could never find a place to camp but thanks to harvest house we got to explore for two days because we stayed nearby at that train museum and then drove less than half an hour into the park and yes it was still cold there but we took some good hikes and finally got to see the lake.  If you watch my channel you know that recently I went off on my own in a truck camper and saw seven states in four months and I went to the south which I've never done before and harvest house was absolutely indispensable if you don't already have your harvest house membership again of course the link is below for 15% off. I'll see you guys next week until then I hope you're all doing well out there. Have happy travels and be free.
