can you make some some changes so that 30 days later you take your shirt off or put on a bikini like you can tell you can tell that I did something yes you can I don't want people to think that it's not possible I think it's very much so possible and again the the healthier you are the healthier your metabolism is okay the higher amount of calories you can consume and not put body fat on the more muscle mass you have on your body the I think the more dramatic this can be to extreme with that either right because then we're in a predicament where we're not fueling our our muscle we're not preserving muscle at that point too what you want to be able to preserve if that's the allure of it is to be able to you know highlight your muscles more and reduce body fat not necessarily overall weight in today's episode we're going to talk about how you can visibly change your body in 30 days that's right 30 day transformation all right preface the hustle I know now that we've hooked them big aster big aster cure first off there's a reason why we don't do episodes like this because this really doesn't really apply to the vast majority of people out there it's a it's really a terrible strategy or thought process for most people who are looking to lose you know 20 pounds or improve their health or fitness this whole like I'm gonna do everything I can for 30 days sets you up for failure afterwards almost 100% of the time yeah so I'm gonna be really really clear about that there are some potential applications that being said if you consistently work out you your metabolism is in a very healthy place now what do you mean by healthy well a good amount of calories for your body weight so if you are and if you're a hundred and thirty to a hundred fifty pound female and you're eating 1700 plus calories you're in a pretty good place right if you're 1500 calories and you know maintaining your weight there you probably need to focus on reverse dieting so you want to have a least you want to have some room to go down that yeah that's the point is one of the things I obviously one of the tips in here is going to be restrict calories and we're probably gonna recommend somewhere between the 500 a thousand mark and so if you're gonna recommend that they need to be somewhere in a healthy place that you're not now you know starving the body of nutrients because you're so low calorie so that's important and also having like a fundamental sort of baseline of training experience right like so that's definitely because if you are gonna like really condense this goal down to a limited amount of time of 30 days you know this is where like somebody in that situation where I do have I'm pretty experienced in the gym maybe I've taken a little bit of time off but I can do these compound less I can do a lot of things that'll contribute towards that at a more intensified kind of pace and we just did an episode you know for the so the people that feel like oh well the what's this this is a worthless episode for me well if you feel like that after us prefacing it with that go over and watch the the start the New Year's one that we did was the title that one Doug whatever the title of the the New Year's episode we did I think is an excellent place to start for a majority of people just getting started on their journey or one of our reverse dieting ones but for somebody who's you know healthy and been training consistently and they're like all right I'm gonna I want to turn it up the next 30 days we've listed some of the I think key rocks to focus on in order to be successful at this is again this is considering you're not so the problem is that the person who tends to get attracted to this oh my god I can visit wrong person it's the beginner oh I want to get in shape this is how I want to start this is that's the wrong person this also is gonna be kind of a waste of time if you have a lot of body fat to lose you're not gonna be able to do much in a month to visibly change your body with you know but by doing anything if you have like 30 pounds to lose but if you're like relatively lean you can make some changes in a month to where you can actually tell when you look in the mirror so that episode that Adam was referring to was nine 1967 so 1967 that'll give you better long-term advice but that being said if you're relatively lean you've got some experience you know how to work out your metabolism you're eating a good amount of calories you kind of know what your maintenance is at by the way that's also important then can you make some some changes so that 30 days later you take your shirt off or put on a bikini like you can tell you could tell that I did something yes you can now I do want to be clear the most body fat pure body fat because you can lose more on the scale doesn't mean lost body fat the most body fat you'll probably lose in this month if you do this right that you should aim for is like four pounds maybe six pounds at the most I know some people say two pounds a week eight pounds is pushing it but I'd say 46 pounds how do you guys feel about that I would challenge that and the way I would challenge that is the the healthier you are and the better metabolism and more muscle mass you have the more dramatic that number would be so I mean I was I was cutting the 10 15 pounds of fat in a month's time when I was competing but I also had a roaring metabolism at a ton of muscle on my body I had a very high caloric intake yeah but you wouldn't you would be an outlier though right that wouldn't be the average no I'm not that's what I just said I'm not but I didn't want I don't want people to think that it's not possible I think it's very much so possible and again the healthier you are the healthier your metabolism is okay the higher amount of calories you can consume and not put body fat on the more muscle mass you have in your body the I think the more dramatic this can be I think your target is a good safe place that's smart and healthy for the average person who just is a you know say weekend warrior I guess or like you know they work out relatively consistent but not like but if you're if you're pretty hardcore on this I mean you can you can you can move the needle now that's you just said something so what's gonna be vitally important because we're dealing with such a short window of time is gonna be consistency this means if you have to do everything yeah I refer all the time yeah otherwise you can forget the 30 screw has to be yeah and then you give yourself a 1690 day target 120 day target but if you look at 30 days like one weekend out with your friends doing whatever so this is where I do I do like the 30-day type of quote-unquote challenge or the like setting doing an episode like this is it is fun to go like hey for 30 days I'm really gonna I'm gonna sacrifice a lot I'm gonna sacrifice the other things in health relationship going out with my friends and taking the weekend off this or sleeping in on these days like this is like kind of cool to measure and see okay if I really say I'm all about making a change physically what can I actually accomplish if I if everything else falls after that goal for 30 days this is what it would look like in my opinion all right today's giveaway is maps anabolic this is the first maps program the most

interested in taking advantage of the January special just click on the link at the top of the description below all right here comes a show all right so step one obviously you're gonna have to cut calories and they're gonna have to come down below your maintenance so maintenance is how many calories you need to consume for your body to stay the same so if you know what that number is then you want to cut between 500 to 1000 calories below that now who goes to a thousand who goes to 500 the higher your calories are the more you can go down if you're at 1700 calories i would not recommend you count a thousand calories now you left with 700 calories that's not a good place but if you're at 3000 calories or 3500 calories you're a big dude and you got a lot of muscle in a fast metabolism can you cut a thousand calories below maintenance just for a 30 day period you can so it's 500 to a thousand and what this does is when you go below maintenance now your body's forced to tap into its energy reserves during this 30 day period this is what causes the body fat if you don't do this part none of the other stuff we say is gonna make a big difference you have to have that calorie cut in order to see the fat loss you don't want to go too extreme with that either right because then we're in a predicament where we're not fueling our our muscle we're not preserving muscle at that point too which you want to be able to preserve if that's the allure of it is to be able to you know highlight your muscles more and reduce body fat not necessarily overall weight i actually would the way i would structure this would be if it's a 30 day goal i would actually figure out what's the lowest i would want to allow myself on the 30th day and i would kind of reverse engineer that meaning that you're not going to go like that right off the gates right and i'm not going to go i'm not going to pick the number and stay at that for 30 days every week i'm going to adjust this yeah so every week i'm going to go a little bit lower a little bit lower so let's say i'm at like you know where i was when i was competing 5000 calories and i'm in 30 days how and i i don't want to go lower than let's say 2500 i'm going okay so how would i want that look i'm gonna go a thousand calories and then 500 and then 500 like that's and every week i'm going to do that and i'm actually and i hope you don't mind but i want to pair this with uh what i like to do at the same time which is the your eighth tip which is the steps and so i'm actually dropping about 500 to a thousand depending on the week every week and then i'm also increasing steps and this is this because what that does just to be clear what that does by increasing activity is you're moving the calorie burn target up so now you have the deficit where you want so let's say you cut 700 calories but now you're burning an extra 300 calories now you're a thousand calorie deficit right so you can do through activity and through through nutrition right and i like doing both of them at the at the same time i feel like i get more of a dramatic response and i don't have to drop calories so hard and still create that deficit i don't have to do crazy hours of activity i just need to increase my movement and be tracking it paying attention to it so i think and i know you put numbers on here with the steps with the i think you did 10 12 yeah you did 10 12 14 16 thousand what always happens when we do an episode like this someone's like well what do i do if i'm already have 14 thousand steps okay so it's just go up 2000 each time yeah what is that like 20 20 percent or so you know increase whatever it is 20 percent week over week uh from where you're currently at well let's talk about the steps then since we're since we're talking about that now the recommendation here and this is general again if you're higher than this already then you just add in a in a similar fashion but for those of you that aren't hitting these the first week you're aiming for 10 000 steps a day the second week you're aiming for 12 000 the third week 14 000 and the last week 16 000 steps so you're you're you're you're increasing your step count every single week this is going to take the place of cardio this is better than cardio because steps are throughout the day it's easier to stay consistent with this type of activity it doesn't tend to cause the metabolic adaptation in the same way and it's easier now can you do these steps on a treadmill you can but ideally you do them throughout the day and you're just trying to stay active throughout the day and using a treadmill as a way to play catch up that okay so that i just love that you added that because that's how i used to use the treadmill was to play catch up if i didn't get there so the goal would be you know i wear the Fitbit or Apple Watch or a tool to be tracking i'm mindful all day about where my steps are averaging and then if i see that i'm behind and i don't have time to maybe go go somewhere or i don't see where i'm going to be able to insert that into my day or maybe i know i'm about to sit down and podcast or do something for five six hours i might go okay i'm gonna i'm gonna get on the treadmill and i'm gonna walk until i get to a certain amount because and if you do what once you do this enough you start to get uh you sort of figure out your own behaviors of what normal days look like where you'll land what it looks like if you add a lunch walk for 20 minutes like that's what i what i love about goals like this it's very insightful is yeah exactly is more about what you learn about yourself and your behavior so you can become more cognizant of these these things that happen when you're not doing this 30 day challenge of like oh i've had one of those days where it's been like i need to probably get home your natural tendency i want to sit down want to relax i want to kind of wind down and like so when you start paying attention to like not sitting and not like doing some of those things like those habits you normally have it really does like increase just naturally the amount of activity of overall day the best ways to hit these are walking after meals housework parking farther in the parking lot using the bathroom that's far away at work like these little things actually make up a difference big difference when it comes to these steps like i i know that for me when i would track something like this if i was at the grocery store yeah and i had to go to this over there to find that i'd take the long way i'd park further away it would make like an extra thousand way less noticeable that way it is it's way less though it's much more of a lifestyle thing and i just i would burn more body fat that way than by doing a concentrated hour of cardio all right next is this one's again a diet related one which is since you're cutting calories you want to take a majority of these calorie cuts from carbohydrates for the most part why because proteins and fats are more satiating and because we're looking for visible changes in the mirror carbohydrates tend to cause more water retention or should i say in the reverse cutting carbohydrates tends to get rid of water so burning body fat and getting your body to lose a little bit of water tends to create the illusion of being even even leaner and carbs tend to be easier to cut without sacrificing again proteins fats and that kind of stuff they tend to be easier to cut and it takes you to the next point which is i mean i think the simple point of this is just that they're not essential the other two are so i'm going to keep the other two in the diet the longest and the most possible if you're if we're doing a cut and we're trying to do it in the the healthiest way possible the things that i want to probably keep where where my body's used to is my my fats and proteins because they're necessary and carbohydrates are not necessary at all so the first place i'm going to start to pull or manipulate is carbohydrates and i also think to the point you're making it makes it visually better i also notice the difference with my appetite like so if i keep my my fats and proteins relatively high and i only take the calories from carbohydrates i actually find it easier to restrict from the foods versus if i take away it from fat or proteins i find it like you still have those cravings where i think this helps in the craving department also yes a hundred percent and this takes us to the next one which is to eat only unprocessed foods and you got to be very consistent with this now why is it because processed foods promote fat gain not inherently but rather processed foods make us overeat and since you cannot mess up even one day because it's a 30-day period you want to put all the chips in your favor and i don't mean potato chips i mean like chips on a bedding table so i got excited every second so you want to eat only unprocessed food so every meal should be made up of whole natural foods foods were it's one ingredient so fruits vegetables you know grains that are not super processed like you know like rice corn potato there's be some good starches and then you're in your meats your meats your proteins and that kind of stuff only unprocessed food you'll find that you're going to find more satiety it'll be easy to stay consistent with that calorie cut that we talked about early on without that in processed foods you may find it to be really challenging yeah i just i just think if you're going to be successful and you're going to like do this hardcore 30 days um becoming aware of everything you're consuming half of part of that awareness comes from prepping prepping weighing measuring getting all set out and eating all whole foods and and i i've shared this on the podcast before too which what i can't share with you is the science to support this thing that i definitely saw happen was i mean even when when calories were controlled and i had a diet that had all these you know bars and shakes and processed foods that i allowed in the diet versus when i went all whole foods it presented a different look you know now we're talking we're splitting hairs uh the difference but i saw a difference in it and i found it easier to control the cravings eat like protein bars even though they they fall in the category of healthy they also would promote me wanting to have more of them so versus me having a you know small serving of of me in vegetables that would satiate me and not kick up the craving to where i want to get where if i'd have a bar a lot of times i have a bar i want another one and it's easy to justify oh it's a healthy thing let me do one more i think part of that has to do with the accuracy of when you when you weigh a piece of meat and vegetables and fruit and potato or whatever you're gonna get pretty accurate with the calories when you look at a package of something that's processed the fda actually allows like 10 to 20 they're pretty loose about it 20 so so it says you know 100 calories it could have as much as 120 calories if it's 200 calories and have as much as 240 calories so i think that's probably where it mostly comes from yeah definitely it's it's gotta highlight the prep value of that because if you're reaching you know like this is where like there's no real margin for error there and if you have a day where you're hungry and you get like a craving and you're between on your traveling and there's only gas station available whatever it is like and you're not prepared and you don't have that food accessible you're gonna compromise it well and to add to what you said sal about the the accuracy of the number of fda allowing it to be 20 off when it's when it's you would i think you would be silly to think that food companies that are that fall in the health category that are trying to attract people because they're quote-unquote low calorie are not going to take advantage of all 19.9 percent that they can to sell it i bet you they're the most inaccurate i i bet you because health foods are trying to sell 100 percent you have the most inaccurate you have to believe that you have to believe if we are selling this product to to people as low calorie and the fda already allows us this 20 wiggle room we are going to take advantage that entire 19.9 because your consumer cares so much about how many calories in there that's right and like you said something that is two or three hundred calories the difference of it getting to say 40 to 50 calories less it's a big difference of you going like oh wow that's really low that's below 200 calories that's actually 240 that's right that's not bad at all three of those taste good and it feels me out yeah you eat three of those it's an extra 150 calories a day that's right which will definitely throw you off that's right all right the next one is to eat uh one gram of protein per pound of body weight or more or more i'd like to tell people when they're doing something like this to aim for more because at least if they do fall below it they're hitting that target of one to one now this is extremely satiating extremely satiating when you eat a gram of protein per pound of body weight you will find your appetite to be gone it's a bit of a chore i think people don't realize like once they start really upping the protein to that level um i mean you have to actively eat your way through some of that sometimes if you're used to balancing that with a higher amount of carbs yeah and this also um is better for metabolic adaptation because a high protein diet you're less likely to pair muscle down anytime you cut calories you always run that risk of paring muscle down losing a little bit of muscle in this process well we want to visibly change how we look that means we want to keep that muscle muscle looks good and a high protein low calorie diet is more likely to maintain muscle studies are quite clear on this than a lower protein low calorie diet even if the calories are the same the high protein component protects muscle which will also protect to a degree your metabolism because what you don't want to do at the end of this 30-day period is to be so bad and even though we're selling this episode my integrity still prevents me from telling you to do things that are going to set you up so terribly for failure later on so i want you to protect your metabolism well yeah i think i think we've done enough of that right where we explain to people there's a very there's a clear difference when we present information and we're talking about what is healthy what is best for you what's a good strategy for this for long term longevity and then when we have to do something where we're saying like okay you got 30 days what are you gonna do for 30 days forget what is best for that person or not it's like what are the tips that you're going to give and obviously you're focused you are going to want to lean on the the higher end even flirting with maybe a little too much of protein because you don't want to risk going under that because you're not getting the potential maximum benefits of protecting muscle or even potentially building muscle so i want to keep my client or this person that we're we're you know this avatar we're building at that that high threshold of protein intake yes next up would be to hit your fiber targets for your body weight you want to hit your fiber targets because fiber is also very satiating fibers up there not quite as much as protein but it's also very satiating and also a diet that contains an adequate amount of fiber tends to promote fat loss through other somewhat unknown mechanisms one some people believe it has to do with the microbiome i would think digestives i think i have to do with digestion yeah maybe some maybe there's more calories burned processing than other types of foods but fibers pretty clear it's pretty good for you high fiber foods that i like to recommend are things like vegetables and berries berries are phenomenal source like raspberries and blackberries a great source of fiber and relatively low calorie that was that was your tip out of my staple low glycemic i actually really didn't eat a lot of any other fruit during prep than berries i would i would rotate through all the berries because of the biggest bang for your buck as far as being the the lowest calorie for the most amount of antioxidants fiber that you get from it so i feel like you're getting the most benefit from it without all the extra calories and i think they taste good i mean blueberries and and blackberries and raspberries and strawberries and you know they're and they're all relatively close as far as like which one's better um and i would just do a mixed bowl of berries to get all my fiber in this way and easily digestible sometimes fibers like uh can can cause gastro upset and some people especially in soluble fiber especially if you're doing something like you know raw spinach or something like that right so yep next up would be to introduce one higher calorie day week now what do i mean by higher calorie this is where you're going to eat closer to what your maintenance is now why are we doing this this will probably not always but probably mitigate the metabolic slowdown that's almost inevitable when you cut your calories introducing a higher calorie day tends to do that also psychologically this is going to give you just enough flexibility helps help you stay consistent hopefully that's the goal and it can also give you the fuel and energy for some of your harder workouts because you are going to be working out during this period of time so if you have seven days uh if you look at your seven day diet and you're at a thousand calorie deficit maybe maybe maybe make one of those like a 200 calorie deficit so the calories are this is not a cheat day no no i didn't that's why didn't say that yeah we have to highlight that because you know sometimes people look at that if i'm up in my calories what's the difference if i introduce maybe some processed foods in there like i kind of get something that i you know i had cravings for no this is just to to really stick with the plan of what you have in terms of your macronutrients and and the types of quality of food and the whole foods we're just upping that resource a bit more so mine actually was one high calorie day every four days so i would i would run a low low or excuse me reverse the other way it would go a high day and then it would go a medium day and then it would go low low carbohydrate day and then back to a high so that was kind of how i you had so much metabolic flexibility too because you were had so much muscle right and so many you were burning so many calories um i would say for what do you think for most people well i mean it still lands once a week one every four is still once i mean you're roughly yeah on the eighth day would be the second one so it's still roughly once a week that's just the cycle i ran through i would i would cycle my carbohydrates and i'd have four days where i was eating significantly under my my caloric maintenance and then that one day i'd actually go a little bit above maintenance so whatever i had decided what my where my maintenance was at i would go a regular day a like a medium like calorie drop and then a very low very low and then back well so in 30 days that'll give you seven higher calorie days once a week we'll give you four so you are doing more in that 30 day period yeah in a 30 day period in a 30 day period yeah so i'd say you play around with this a little bit but if i'm thinking of the average person and where their calories are going to be and they're probably not going to be like you i would keep it to one um but i mean you could play around with this a little bit the problem is you have 30 days so i don't know if there's that much wiggle room right for somebody to kind of yeah i mean i of course this goes back to the original statement of the the the better you are the better place you are like metabolically the more wiggle room that you're gonna have the more the more your build flexibility that you'll be able to play with different days like this i mean nothing stops the average person from having like instead of doing my cycle of going you know they have you know three like medium low days you know two very very low days and then that's one maintenance in a slight surplus so you can absolutely play with like what that looks like i just found that that rotation was a nice rotation yeah and to be clear mine would be similar to yours that's how i tend to do mine all right next up let's talk about working out um lift weights three days a week full body now why are we recommending that because you're the calorie deficit probably not a good idea to lift weights all the time um and three days a week full body gives you enough frequency it focuses tends to focus on compound lifts and it tends to send a really loud muscle building strength signal which will minimize the potential muscle loss that can happen during a calorie deficit period so a full body three-day week routine for this 30-day period probably works best each workout should focus on like one exercise per body part and make it compound lift focus we want most bang for a buck we're not in the gym to waste time we also are low energy because the calories are so low so not trying to do a bunch of filler exercises you want to go in there you want to squat you want to press you want to press overhead you want to row you know lunge you might do those kinds of movements to really maximize the type of and if you want to do more it is on the off days it's mobility trigger and walking yes like that so restorative movement right so like we're going to hit the weights hard three days full body and then and if you we want to do i want to keep this person moving and active we only got 30 days right and so those other days we're messing with mobility walking and trigger sessions and i give them a lot of flexibility that's obviously the one thing i was going to remind people is trigger sessions are not like workouts they're these these small pump and do three four of those little micro you know pumping band workouts for the day i'm totally fine with that go for a nice walk do a nice 30 minute to 45 minute mobility session like stay active stay active and do those types of things on the off day but as far as you know the intensity the high intensity like weight training pushing yourself limit that to which by the way is sounds counter-intuitive like most people should do more yeah most people would think yeah check yourself that's right and and i think that that this is a mistake that a lot of people make is hammering the shit of themselves five to seven days a week and then their body's constantly trying to recover from that it's not adapting and helping you out same in the actual workouts right is the tendency because we're trying to really accelerate our progress because we got this 30 day window i'm going to want to keep going to the next exercise the next exercise we're not getting adequate rest in between we change the dynamic of the entire workout from being a strength driven workout to now a little bit more cardiovascular based and so we do need that strength signal we need that signal so we can and you want it to be loud to build muscle allow the the movement activity and the calorie deficit to take care of the fat burning do not go into your lifting days as i'm trying to burn fat you're trying to build muscle trying to build muscle and so lift to build muscle stay active be disciplined on your deficit to make your your your fat burning think of it like that as you approach your working out that's a good that's a good tip and then uh you want to also prioritize sleep every day one night of miss sleep will wreak havoc on your hormone system will change your cravings affect your workouts negatively so that means for the next 30 days you're not going to stay up late friday night and try and sleep in saturday morning that is not prioritizing sleep that's giving yourself jet lag every single week and that also has negative consequences so this means every night go to bed at the same time and every morning wake up at the same time this is not an afterthought by the way so you if you listen to all these tips you're like oh that sleep part i'll leave that out yeah no the sleep part is one of the most important tips that we just gave you every single night go to bed at the same time every single morning wake up at the same time it'll make a huge difference with this particular goal this is something where you know i made the point when we first started talking about how i like this for like 30 days to um be so disciplined that you make a lot of other sacrifices that if i was coaching you towards longevity and health that i would probably tell you like listen i mean that's uh that's a time you enjoy with your wife on friday nights you should go have that dinner out and you guys do those things or you know you haven't seen a friend that you haven't seen in years and and saturday you guys get together and you stay up and you you have a glass of scotch i'm gonna tell you you should enjoy that every now those things are important to your relationship and your and your overall health but here's an example of where like you know i have you ever sacrificed all those things for 30 days to make sure you get the most optimal sleep ever to see how much it actually makes a benefit it's also going to bring so much awareness around how much it impacts that's what i mean that's why i like this is this like 30 day get after like really like give yourself that opportunity to like like what if i did turn down these things that i really want to do and these things that i i have these temptations or stay up later to watch a show i really wanted to watch about like sacrifice that stuff for just 30 days and really make this like discipline effort to get in bed by a really early time and get really good night's sleep just to see what kind of impact in how much it can influence it you want to know it's funny knowing the average person considering the average person of all of these single steps that we just talked about this is a hard one of the one that would make the biggest difference in 30 days would be this one it's also one of the hardest that's why i'm making this impact that's why i'm making such a big deal about it because i know i've trained enough people to know and i know myself this is hard yeah it is hard to be really really good every single night about having a routine where you get in the bed and getting in bed every single night and if it's 11 or midnight that's not a good routine you know like getting into bed early so you get a good eight hours of sleep and or more and you're well rested to get up and start your day and consistently at that time that's hard to do that is all right next this is the last one and because we have a 30 day period so this is not like how you're going to live your entire life but because the goal is to make the most visible changes in 30 days that means zero alcohol zero zero junk food zero anything that could counter this this goal so that means there's no wiggle room so we talked about consistency in the beginning that's it for 30 days you're not doing any of those things because all of those things can impact all the other steps that we talked about you could have some alcohol not affect your sleep not affect your cravings now your diet's off your workouts off whatever do nothing that could be off or that could set you off and you will see visible changes in 30 days look if you like this show head over to mindpumpfree.com and check out our

My whole life ahead of me, all that's gone now.  Yeah, I listened to that little voice and boy was that a mistake. Welcome back. Making another deposit? How much this time? It will be $109,206 today. Okay. Well you know I have to authorize this deposit to one of my managers so I won't, please. Brandon, can you please come to desk one? Thank you. Do you to authorize this deposit? It's for $198,206. I'll be right back. It looks like a lovely shade of magenta tonight. It just got it done. Magenta reminds me of fresh dried blood. Thank you. That's so sweet. I like your tie. See you guys soon. So Claire, I really like your slinky. I was wondering maybe you'd like to, maybe you and I could go on a date sometime. That's really sweet of you to ask me, but I don't really go on dates. But no, yeah, I understand. But maybe another time? Sure. Okay. Can I have a tissue? A tissue. Can I have everyone's attention, please? Starting next Monday, I'll be on vacation for an entire week. That means Brandon, Brandon, where are your shoes? Brandon will be in charge. That means respect him as if he was I. Please try not to mess this up. Yeah. No, I won't. Did you hear that? I'm going to the boss. I'm the boss now. Can I have this? No. I'm going to tell my mom. I'm going to tell my grandma. I'm going to tell my cat. I'm going to tell my other cat. I'm going to tell everyone. I know. I'm so excited. Oh, Claire. So, you're the manager now. I am the manager and I'm so hyped for this. Yeah, you deserve it. So, I was thinking, you want to get lunch? Of course. Free food. With who? With me. With you. And me. Yes. Now, lunchtime. Yes. Let's go. Let's go for lunch. Oh, man. I'm so excited. Best date ever. And that's how much I need to be. Interesting. So, are you excited to be in charge next week? In charge of what? The bank. What Mr. Ellis told us this morning. Oh. Yeah. So, are you excited to be in charge next week? In charge of what? The bank. What Mr. Ellis told us this morning. Oh, yeah. Big opportunity, but I think I can handle it. Brandon, I know I've rejected you before on having lunch, but I do have my reasons. You do? Yeah. Yeah. Look, my mom, she's been sick and I've been trying to help her and take care of her as much as I can that I can go out and look for someone. I really do like you, but just with my mom, I didn't have time to look for someone. If only I had enough money to buy a nurse or something, then maybe we could be together. Yeah, but where would we find the money? Well, a bank would have one. But where would we find the bank? We work at one. Oh, yeah. Then why don't we just take the money from there and give it back, like, alone? You mean steal it? Like, alone. You know, we do those all the time. No, I don't think so. Lunch is almost over, so I think we should head out. Yeah. Hey, it's Claire. I was thinking about what we were talking about earlier. Yeah, about the bank. Yeah, let's do it. Let's take the money. Let's be together. Over here. Oh, hey. Shh. I have a plan. For what? To get the money. Okay. You know the guy that comes in at the end of every month to get a lot of money? No. Well, anyway, he's going to come in in a few days, and you're going to need to authorize his deposit. But instead of putting it in the vault, we're going to put it in a case that I'll bring. Okay. Whatever. And then we're going to slip him a blank deposit. So technically, the money never existed. Come. Let's do it. I like high fives. Welcome back. What's the amount this time? It will be $200,304. This is to one of my managers, so one moment. Brandon, can you please come to my desk? Thank you. I'm surprised the place is still standing with him in charge. Well, he's a good guy, so... If you say so. Hey, what's up? I need you to authorize this. It's $200,000 for $304. So, how's business going? That is your concern. I think someone's getting in your car. Deposit the money yet? Yup. Here's your receipt. Blank. What do you mean it's blank? You're missing the Don's bread.  Now you go back to the bank and you go back now. All right, both. You got till midnight to make this right, or you're going to be sleeping with the fishes. I won't let you down. I'll take care of this. So hard to hear. So, where's my dough? We gave it to you. Well, you gave me with a blank receipt, but I still need my money. I mean, Brandon, he went to the vault. He took care of it. Brandon, that's strong and a little twerp. Yeah? Where's he at now? Well, he says he's usually at the coffee ground day at five. Where's that at? Over at the corner. Thank you. I'll take care of this. Okay. Still taking? Uh, yeah. Nope. Not anymore. So, the rumor has it you've got my dough. Dough? Like bread? Where is the money? What money? That... Yeah, in there. What kind of joke is this? Joke? Like... This dough is fake! No, it's not. It's true. She played us. She played us. Boom!  Do you have my money? Yeah. And the feds? Call the cops on Brandon. Tell them that he stole a hundred dollars from the station. And now that he knows where they are. Excellent. Salvatore and the God. They should be arrived there shortly as well. We'll be arrested on the spot. No sense. They'll never know it was us.


Hi everybody it's Sam at Mixed Up Proud, thank you for watching my tutorial today. This is another project using the January hobby base kit and this one here I've made this acetate front A6 card, obviously you can see there it just stands up normally like any other card, but just bring it up a bit closer, show you what I've done here. So this is, there's two pieces of acetate that come with the kit and this one here has some rose design at the top and the bottom but it's clear in the middle and I just wanted to use the clear for this one. So I've just trimmed that down, this is a set of three wood veneers and this one here I've just applied some glue and then sprinkled over the copper glitter that came with the kit and then these are the stickers that also come with the kit and these ones I've rubbed with the ink just to give them more of a rose gold color and then I've set in the middle there some of the ranger, this one here what's it called again the liquid pearls just to give some dimension there and then I've finished it off with the lovely foiled card and it just gives a really really lovely effect there. Okay so I'm going to make another one but the patterns will be slightly different but we're going to make this exact card so I'm just going to set that one up there just so you can kind of see it still. So you get two six by six card mats in the kit so that's what I've been using and I just need to trim them down. This is the wood veneers this one here I've already colored as well I'm going to show you how I done that one later on and that was there the piece of vellum so it was just an A5 so it's a bit longer and I've just cut a piece out there and then this bit here's the other bit that I'm going to cut but keep these because they're lovely and I do intend to use them you can see there on other projects that's the stickers and that's the paper I'm going to use today. Okay so this is the six by six card base that I've got here actually I will move that to one side a minute just so I've got room to trim. Okay so what we want to do is open up the card so if you don't have the kits and you're just following this just like any of my other tutorials you can cut a six by six card from a piece of 12 by 12 card just cut it at six inches and then score at six inches and it will give you your card base. So what we want to do with this is we need to trim so that we have two inches at the top we're going to take out the middle bit and then we have two inches at the bottom so you need to line lay your card down in your trimmer and the score line you want to line that up with the two inch mark. Okay so I'm just lining up my score line there with those sorry bring it down a bit there we go that score line I'm just lining up with the two inch marker there okay and then you can just cut that one like so okay then with this piece here because it's six inches you just then want to cut again at two inches so I'm just lining it up there at the two inch marker and cut and that bit there we're keeping because that is going to be what goes on the bottom here and then this middle bit will be where the acetate will go okay so keep that card that's a good bit of um scrap card to have pop that to one side so that's everything there the minute let me just get this trimmed up as well so I want the card to sit pretty much over the whole piece so it would be two by six that we need to cut this down to so because these are what these pieces measure up at two by six let me just double check yeah two by six okay so we need to cut two pieces of two by six out of this lovely paper here you get five sheets of this six by six in all different prints so it's this print the print I used the two prints that I used on the small bags that I uploaded yesterday and then I've got one more leftover as well so again lots and lots of lovely card so two just check that is coming in at six no it's a little bit bigger I'm just going to trim that down get all that out it's clogged up in my trimmer there two inch there keep that again to get rid of it and then just trim that one down like so so that's that piece then the acetate you can get between let me just try and get this on a background where you can see it you can see it there so that comes in at a five size so this piece here that's already taken out is what I used on that other card and that was two and a half inches and I worked it out that you can get another two and a half inches of clear acetate from this second half and then it leaves you these two end pieces of the with the rose print which again like I said keep because I will be using them again so with this piece here I'm just going to line up the rose so it's just coming off there and that oh it's actually two and three quarters so it's even more so that's perfect so I'm just going to trim that off there so I'm just taking off the rose patterned piece so I'm just left with that clear piece of acetate all right and like I said mine is measuring two and three quarters by six okay so that's all the trimming and then we can start assembling this piece of the card here so what you want to do is first of all is what we're going to do is this piece of acetate we want to stick on the front here just so it's kind of overlapping by I say a quarter of an inch so I'm just using some red tape here and I'm just going to apply it to the very edge of that acetate just trim that off there and again I'm going to lay the same amount down the very bottom you want the thinnest of tapes that you have so these quarter quarter inch ones are brilliant this is a little bit less actually I think this is about you just see what this one measures up actually I think it's even smaller than that this is the it's just under a quarter it's about three sixteenths of an inch okay so let's just make sure that's all nicely stuck down take off one side first do it bit by bit and then just sit it over you might have a little bit of white it might not quite meet this acetate slightly shorter just literally like minimal amount so just make sure you get an even amount on each side okay and then grab that other piece of white and that's going to sit that's what I would say is get the white piece and make sure that that sits perfectly with the white piece underneath so you're basically making the card back up again like so okay so what I can do now is I can actually put a bit more red tape because can you see that the the acetate's coming down more than this piece here so I'm going to run another piece of red tape just above that just so that the card underneath doesn't kind of flap around so just run that over there I think I did cut two and a half for the other one so I think that's why this is two and three quarter width this acetate whereas on the other card it was two and a half so that's why I've got a little bit extra okay so again just lie that down first like so and then bring this over and you can just sit that right down like so take that other piece off there okay so that's it coming together now and then we're going to be decorating over the top of all of this just to conceal it all and sticking these pieces on the top and the bottom like so okay so again you can use wet glue or you can use double sided tape I'm going to use my tear tape here just to stick this down okay so just make sure they're all stuck on there and what I will be doing is because I've started doing these kits towards the end of January and this is obviously the January kit in this kit was stamps dies and obviously the ink pads and stuff I will be making other projects with those bits and pieces and incorporating them where I can within the February kit as well so you know although I haven't used them now I will I will try and use them and put them into other projects and I will be sharing them on the hobby base subscribers club as well so if you are a subscriber you'll be able to see any other cards that I make or projects because I will share them on there as well so but this is going to be the only other YouTube tutorial for the January kit that will be going up so again I'm going to just sit this one down right over the top this top piece make sure it all sits nicely okay and then with this bottom one I'm going to line it all up perfectly like so and there you have your acetate window for your card so I mean it's just the gorgeous it's a really lovely way to just change a simple six by six card you could also have it you know portrait so it's quite fun that way and also have it a landscape in fact let's have a little play around because I might end up doing a portrait so what I'm doing next is with these wood veneers I'm just going to grab some copy paper here so what I've done with the because I was playing around with the hello is this is the encore satin rose little ink pad that comes with the kit and basically I just went over and just inked up the wood veneer and instantly it gives you a completely different look and it gives you a really nice embellishment there to now go ahead and decorate on your cards so there you go you can see there how quick that was and that's lovely now so that's the hello but I want to use the smile and I want to show you with the glitter that I've used so I've got the smile one here got some tacky glue and I've got just a paint brush here and all I'm going to do is just get some of the glue there on my brush and just go over and literally just paint this you can use any wet glue so any PVA glues things like that would be fine you don't want to have too much you just you just want it to be wet enough that the glitter will catch on it you don't want to have huge amounts of it kind of using all off the the wood because it would just take longer to dry and you'll have clumpy bits of glitter you can see there I'm just kind of because the good thing with this is there's anywhere where it doesn't stick we can just sprinkle the excess off and then just put a little bit more glue on and sprinkle it on again okay I think I'm pretty much covered there like so then don't put your glitter straight onto the same piece of card because your glitter will stick to all the blue by the bottom so I'm just going to fold this over just take a little bit of excess off there on that E little bit clumpy so I'm just going to fold that in half just so it's nice and dry and then with the lovely hunky dory sparkles this is the penny copper that comes in the kit there's so much in this tiny little pot this will last you forever and like any glitter I mean I remember doing this in school you know such a small amount it goes a long way so I'm just sprinkling it over and I'm going to pile it up a little bit higher okay like so just so you almost can't see the actual wood veneer anymore really the whole pot on there just like so then what you want to do is just grab a ruler and just kind of squash the ruler down over the wood there just to really make sure that that glitter really does stick down you get a really thick coverage as well tap off any excess and then I'm just going to grab my pokey tool just so I can see where I am tap off any excess from the back like so and I can see there I need to just put a little bit more on there and on there but can you see straight away how gorgeous that is and it matches perfectly with the gold on this card here so again I'm just going to pop a little bit more glue let me do it just on this end a bit here because I don't want to get too much just glue that up I'm just going over just where you can see is a few lighter patches so I'm just going to put a little bit there just on the top of the end so and there's a little bit on the end of the E there as well but otherwise I think we're okay and then what I can do is just turn it upside down just tap it all in there again that's covered nicely now I'm going to just get it on the end there like so okay so I'm going to let that dry now naturally or you can heat set it with your glue gun okay so I've heat set the veneer there and I've also done the back just because we've got that clear acetate if someone does lift it right over just makes a bit more pleasing on the eye so that's already there so I'm going to grab the card and like I said you could do this I think I'm going to do this on a portrait this time so it's going to be a cross like so or do we think that way the same as the other one I don't know I don't know which one I like now I think I'm going to go that way because I think you can see the smile stands out more so I'm putting it on an angle so you actually only need to glue the top of the L and just the S here and maybe a little bit of the E there as well if we bring a little bit of that up as well you don't want to put anything on the acetate really because it just won't stick and it would just yeah it just end up popping off just going to use a high tack glue like I said I just want to put a bit on the tip of the S like so the top of the L and a little bit on the E there as well okay and then just make sure I've got that nice and centered and move it across a bit the glue is clear so it will dry fine just let that adhere I'm just going to wipe a little bit of that away there okay just wipe that away if you've got any of those little glue erasers as well they're really handy especially when you're working with foil or any kind of mirror card sometimes the glue if it does smudge a bit you'll see it so I'm just holding that down for a minute okay so that's now all stuck down so now you just need to decorate it a little bit so I think I'm going to use some of the I'm going to use the heart I'm going to use this one this one maybe that one there as well and all I'm doing is grabbing get some scrap card here and I'm just going to stick them on to the scrap card like so so I'll use that one that one I'm going to take that little one there as well like so okay so I just want to make these colors a little bit more um so they match these ones here because if I bring over this one we're going to stain them like I done with this one here so it just gives it a more of a that kind of rose coppery I guess copper and rose are not the same color but you know what I mean it just kind of blended a bit more so I'm just going to literally you don't even need to do it for that long it kind of takes to it really quick as I said in the tutorial on the mini handbags um because these are glittered stickers they're obviously rough they just take to the um the color the pigment really well I'm just rubbing my finger over just so that some of the gold does come back through because it just gives it it's just nice gives it that shimmer okay and then I'm just going to fussy cut them out so just so that they're a little bit more stronger um and it gives a little bit more dimension to your card so literally I'm just going around there I'm just going to cut them all out okay so I've just cut them out and I've just got some glue dots here and I'm just going to put a few of the glue dots kind of layered on top of each other so it almost gives it dimension just acts a bit like a foam a foam dot so just put three or four on top of each other there and then just kind of randomly stick them down there we go like so just bring them up there you can just see kind of just make them out it doesn't pick it up as well in camera um but it's certainly there and if I just flip this over you can just see on the other side there it just looks nicer now you could certainly put more panels on this side as well if you wanted to um but there you have it so the envelopes come in the kit so there's two envelopes for um both of them um but there you have it so that's using the wood veneers um the glitter we've used some of the um the pearl liquid drops the acetate so lots of elements into these cards and I think they look great so there you have it so if you do like the kits and it's something that you're interested in um you have until the 21st of each month to subscribe for the following month's kit so unfortunately the 21st is already passed for the February kit but you have until the 21st of February now to get the March kit so if it is something you like and you know once you start seeing what I start to produce with the February kit um again it might be something that you think oh I really enjoy that um then all the links I will share below on what you need to do to get a hold of the kit they are also I've been informed going to be doing international shipping so to answer some of the questions that people have asked about the um if it's available outside of the UK the answer will be yes um just keep an eye on it I'm not sure if it's gone live today or not but I know that they are doing it so I will update everything on my blog as well and all those links again are all shared below um but if again if you do like what I've done here and it is something you'd like to do then just hop on over to the hobby base um page and you'll be able to subscribe for the kits so I hope you've enjoyed today's tutorial and these cards that I've made for you um please hit the like button if you did and

So, in this module, I will talk about how you design a database that is called as entity relationship modeling or this is the design it will cover the steps and the processes very very briefly which are there when we design a database application. Of course for a web-based database application we have to take into consideration other aspects also. In addition to ER modeling entity relationship modeling, I will also cover 12 rules, 12 rules which are about called as the CODs rules and those 12 rules are about the relational model which we will be discussing throughout this course. Relational model is how the database application is developed and what is at the back end I have discussed very very briefly with you the layer in the previous module. So what is an entity? Entity can be something which is important to a business for an application it could be something which is which is living thing it may not be living thing for example, a living thing like a student or a non-living thing like a course or like a lecture room and so on or like an automobile also so entity is something which is of importance to the business entities can be collection and these are those things without which the business doesn't make any sense so these are the important ingredients of a business of an application that is an entity and entity has attributes attributes are the properties for example a student is an entity a course is an entity the attributes of the student could be and are the name of the student the address of the student the GPA of the student the courses which the students the takes that is related to the course taken that is the relational aspect which I will cover so let's very very briefly look at some of the type of attributes for example we have the simple attribute or the atomic attribute it means that if I break the attribute divided into parts it doesn't make any sense then I can have the composite attribute also which is the attribute which is created by combining the properties from multiple attributes that is the composite attribute then I have called as the single valued attribute such as the social security number or as the NIC number that attribute has a unique value a person doesn't have two social security numbers or two ID numbers so that is the single value attributes then are the multi-value attributes say for example the cell numbers a person can have multiple cell numbers and a person can take multiple courses also those are the multi-valued attributes and then I have the entity keys set keys so I have the super key which is a set of attributes then I have the primary key a primary key is a unique and it doesn't repeats itself and I can identify an entity based upon the primary key and of course I have the candidate key also so the most important key over here is this primary key for this is used for the identification purposes and this is also a single value thing you see over here though this is also unique so now let's look at how the things tie together and we go through the cardinalities the cardinality mean over here it is the size basically it is the size of the set so one to one relationship is a type of relationship say for example the car of the CEO can be parked at the spot which is reserved for the CEO that is a one-to-one relationship so the CEO car will be parked over there and no other car can be parked over there so of course then there are one to many relationships and many to many relationship also over here so this is the type of relationship say for example a student can take multiple courses and a course can be taken by multiple students I will go into all of these details so we have the entity we have the attributes and we have these cardinality relationships in an ER model so when we tie together all these things so what we have this diagram in front of you so I have this entity over here entity you can call it entity one you can call it entity two and this this entity one say for example has attribute one and attribute two and of course this also has attribute one and attribute two and this is the relationship which ties together these entities it ties together these entities now I can assign values to these attributes and to these entities you can see over here so the name is an attribute the gender is an attribute and of course the course is an entity and there are attributes of the course also so with this now I move on to something which is called as a 12 rules the cards 12 rules now these 12 rules are by the famous you can call him a mathematician or you can call him the relational modeler who did who developed the relational model so I will briefly go over these 12 rules of code and when we go to the detail of this lecture I will talk about these rules in detail and I will also give you examples of those rules so first is the information rule the information rule in simply states that the data is stored in a table and by the basis upon the rows and column I can access the data and I can use the primary key to access to get what I want then is the guaranteed access rule it means that I can get what I want and there is no hindrance to it and the accessible data is there in the table systematic treatment of null this is very interesting because if the data over there is missing if the data is not available or it is not applicable then you cannot leave it empty to put a zero over there so it is what we are saying over here is missing it is not applicable or it is not available it is not available okay that is the case over there active online catalog so the way we have data stored in the tables the same way we have the data about the tables stored as tables comprehensive data sub language rule it means that we have a language also which is the sequel and of course these are 12 rules and we cannot go over all of those rules in detail in this module but I promise you that I will go through them in detail in the module when it comes


from the Walt Disney World Swan and Dolphin Resort in Orlando, Florida. It's theCUBE. Covering Splunk.com 2016. Brought to you by Splunk. Now, here are your hosts, John Furrier and John Walls. We are here live at our lunch.com for 2016. It's the seventh annual conference for their customers and company event. This is theCUBE, SiliconANGLE's flagship program. We brought to you the events that struck the scene of the noise. In our seventh year, I'm John Furrier with my co-host, John Walls. Seven years. Seven. theCUBE and Splunk. And we have Josh Rodgers with us who's the CEO of SingSort who's been in the business for almost 50 years. So we're covering quite a time span here. The combined knowledge here is 150 years. We should splunk on the chart. And almost your first year as CEO. So congratulations on that. I'm sure it's been quite an eventful year for you in many respects. For sure. Yeah, first off, let's just, I'm kind of curious, 50 years. Yeah. Lots gone on then, right? That's about, you know, it's in dog years. I don't know how many that is. But just the differences you think of how your environments evolved and how the companies had to evolve with it. Yeah, sure.   And what we're trying to do is make sure that we take our original DNA and provide unique value. And obviously big data is a big focus for us now. And that's where we think continues to be relevant. It's just we need to deliver it to new systems. And so that's what COVID's done. So what are you doing with Splunk now? So this started about two and a half, three years ago. We actually met Splunk at another big data conference and progress in the enterprise. And the large enterprises or their customers, not surprisingly, wanted to move mainframe log data into Splunk environments to be able to complete the view of their IT operations and security customers. And Splunk didn't have a great sense of how to do that. Mainframe has been around for a long time. It stores data differently, manages data differently, has a different cost model. They're in a big shop too. The mainframes are in all... Still leverage the mainframe. And so we partnered with Splunk to take the picture of operations, their IT service intelligence and their security. It's funny how the world becomes full circle. The word data processing was a term back then. An I.O. supercomputer and there's no business process that's been baked into these applications makes it very difficult for these large financial institutions and telcos to move off of that environment. Having said that, to contribute the spend and the workloads such that they can put various workloads that are leveraging Splunk, they're leveraging Hadoop. And so what we see happening is that customers with mainframes are facing a challenge of, how do I take the core data assets that are being created through my transactional workloads next generation analytics? You see a lot of big data vendors that have mainframe expertise. And you see mainframe organizations that vendors that actually don't have a lot of big data. Do they initially have the incentive to help kind of bridge that gap? We call that challenge the big iron to big data challenge. And it's imperative for these large organizations to incorporate their core transactional data in these new systems that they need help to do. What are the key drivers, Josh? Take a minute to talk about the key drivers. Is it because the apps are single threaded or mainframe specific? Or is it because now you can add Splunk? It's some capabilities. So if you think about what's happening with the big data environments, I can now ask bigger questions across broader sets of data from status. So if I'm bringing in IoT data and I'm just sensitive data into this open source platform or Splunk takes a significant amount of knowledge and SingSort uniquely provides that set of expertise and technology. We call that problem big iron to Wikibon who does the best sizing from a market perspective of big data to help us size that sub-market market. What size are we talking about now, how big? So if you think about the big data software market, Wikibon sizes at about 20%. So a very big infrastructure software market is about $20 billion. It's actually about twice the size of the big data market. It's an intersection of the two. And Wikibon says that that intersection is about a billion dollars today. That kind of integration of mainframe and big data, 25%. So actually growing a little, and that's where frankly we intend to lead the market. And we're already leading market with products like Ironstream and DMXH in these cases we're delivering with customers. I mean it's like the classic line extension concept where you have a position which you're dominating in and then you go into areas where you can create value off the data and the asset. That's right. And then that's where the analytics comes in. Absolutely, and it turns out it's a hard problem. You know we had an insurance customer that was looking to drive compliance around application developers where application data and test cycles and they wanted to make sure they weren't violating any sort of PII. Ironstream and Splunk were able to build their own compliance app that could show these are how your policies. And the customer should have to buy much into it. You can pick and choose where Splunk makes sense to them vis-a-vis the mainframe or assets for sync stores. That's right. Yeah, they were already using Splunk. They knew they had certain log records that showed who was using which data sets. They just wanted to grab those log records. There's so much movement as you know. Merger, acquisition. You've been busy. Yes. Yeah, based in the UK called Kajido. They focus on IDMS and DB2 performance tools. IDMS is a facto standard relational database for mainframe. Performance tools are helpful for our customers. So we have a large set of mainframe customers that are always looking to control costs. And one of the ways to do that is to optimize performance and efficiency, particularly for your relational data workload. Having IDMS and DB2 skills is incredibly valuable for our organization as we deliver, seek to deliver enhancements to our big R&B data strategy. If, you know. What's the combination create? All those transactions that get processed on the mainframe, they get stored in DB2. And so if I'm running, if I have a Hadoop cluster and I'm looking to figure out how do I move all of my DB2 tables into Hadoop, having some DB2 expertise in house is incredibly helpful. It also turns out that DB2 throws off a lot of logs. You can understand a lot about what's happening in your business based on the logs of the DB2. If I have expertise in understanding logs, I can make those available to solutions like IronStream and Splunk to better run that environment. So these acquisitions, this is our third in helping us deepen our expertise to solve this big R&B data challenge. But they also give us additional products we can sell to our traditional customers. But more than connecting the data, so big R&B data makes sense if I buy that 100%. But the nuance here is the value of the data that's moving between the environments.  So we have a insurance customer on the Hadoop side that offers discounts for use a piece of hardware that tracks your driving history. And that IoT data stream comes back to a Hadoop cluster. And to actually produce the models that say, how much should I charge you? How much should the discount be? They need your claims history. They need your premium history. That is all stored as DB2 tables in the mainframe. So if they can't take that mainframe data asset and combine it with this new IoT data asset, they can't actually drive the business outcome they're looking for. And that's the connection that we make. So the next step for you guys, what's next? You connect all the environments. You like switching one, right? I mean, is that the strategy? We're very focused on building reach with our big data parts. And Splunk is a perfect example. So we've had Iron Stream in the market for about coming up on two years. And it moves the broadest set up into Splunk. And that's great. And that's a great capability. But Splunk continues to advance its offering. And you've seen these application add-ons that come out to come to market with enterprise security and IT service intelligence. Well, if you're an Iron Stream customer and you're a Splunk customer and you wanted to understand the health of various services in your environment, you can leverage Splunk's, they call ITSY, IT Service Intelligence app. Wouldn't it be great if someone was out there to map all the mainframe logs into the ITSY data model? And that's what we've done. So this, we actually are announcing this week support for ITSY. We've already announced support for enterprise security. And so as an Iron Stream customer, not only do you get the ability to move this log data in, but you get the ability to make it immediately useful in the context of the capabilities that Splunk's already delivered to. So that's key to our strategy, is to deliver additional enhancements that deepen our relationship and the value that customers can get from their investments in big data technology. And to find and to explain to the people watching, how do they engage with ThinkSort? Why should they buy you? Why should I work with you and when? So, look, it's going to have to make significant investments in big data technologies to drive the analytics they need to stay competitive. Investments, they're going to have to kind of address this big iron to big data challenge. And it's not easy. And there are not a lot of vendors that have both the technology and the expertise to help solve. ThinkSort is the leader in the big iron to big data market. We'll continue to be, and we'll continue to partner with our customers to solve a growing number of use cases to help them chart that path. Josh Rocher, CEO of ThinkSort. Big iron to big data. If you've got a mainframe, check out ThinkSort. Great to see you. You guys have been a CUBE alumni for so many years. I can't even count. And combined experience here is over 290 years. That sounds good. 1.167th annual user conference. All out the cloud. It's all about big data. It's all about user...


Welcome back to classics in total synthesis lecture series and we have been talking about total synthesis of natural products having 6-phombed ring. So we spoke about total synthesis of lungifoling in the last lecture. So today we will continue our discussion on total synthesis of few more natural products. Particularly today we talk about total synthesis of one interesting natural product called carpano. So this carpano was isolated from the bark of carpano tree and as you can see from the structure it has 3 6-phombed rings 1, 2, 3 and 1 aromatic ring and of course you have 2 5-phombed rings okay. So it poses a enough synthetic challenge and it also has 5 contiguous asymmetric centers okay 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 there are 5 contiguous asymmetric centers. But there was very interesting total synthesis reported by Chapman and this involved 2 key reactions one is intramolecular Diels-Aubre reaction, so other one is oxidative coupling reaction. So this was reported in 1971 and when you look at this molecule you can see at least there are 2 double bonds in a cyclohexene ring okay. So whenever you have a 6-phombed ring with a double bond then one reaction which should come to your mind is Diels-Aubre reaction. See for example if you look at this molecule you can see there is one double bond here that one can think of being constructed using a Diels-Aubre reaction there is another one here so 1, 2 this also in principle can be thought of being made through Diels-Aubre reaction there is one more double bond okay which you cannot see properly as a part of cyclohexene but this is part of an aromatic ring but that also can be thought of as a double bond which could be formed as a result of Diels-Aubre reaction. But here in this case it should be formed as a result of hetero Diels-Aubre reaction. So now let us see intramolecular Diels-Aubre reaction could be successfully used in this total synthesis. For example if you have to make this double bond using intramolecular Diels-Aubre reaction okay what should be the precursor? Likewise if you have to make this double bond using intramolecular Diels-Aubre reaction what should be the precursor and the third option is this okay. Now let us see each double bond and how they can be made using the key intramolecular Diels-Aubre reaction or what should be the precursor for making these 3? Then we will choose the right one of course it should be followed by oxidative phenolic coupling this is what Chapman has proposed first option A if you want this double bond to be made using intramolecular Diels-Aubre reaction what should be the precursor? The precursor should be this one and what you can see here you have a diene in that diene one of the double bond is part of ketene as you know ketene is unstable and second difficulty is you have a cyclic allene a 6 numbered cyclic allene almost very difficult to make. So this disconnection leads to highly unstable precursor okay so option A could be ruled out now let us see option B. Option B you want to make this double bond using intramolecular Diels-Aubre reaction so then what should be the precursor? Your precursor should be this okay it is still possible but maybe the precursor to this triene may not be that easy okay. So let us look at option C and then see whether that will be easy to make so for example if you use or if you think about this double bond being made by intramolecular Diels-Aubre reaction then what you expect is this precursor. So now if you look at this precursor one can also further visualize first of all it can undergo intramolecular Diels-Aubre reaction and during that process this ring gets aromatics okay so that is the driving force. Second as you have seen here if you break this one that can lead to a symmetrical alcohol symmetrical phenol okay this symmetrical phenol can undergo oxidative phenolic coupling that will give you this intermediate which spontaneously can undergo an intramolecular Diels-Aubre reaction to form Carpano. So what should be the starting material? The starting material is this Carpano. So before we actually go into the details of the total synthesis of Carpano by Chapman let us briefly discuss the two key reactions which are being used to synthesize Carpano. The first one is the intramolecular Diels-Aubre reaction see normally when you talk about Diels-Aubre reaction there are two types of Diels-Aubre reaction one is intermolecular Diels-Aubre reaction see this intermolecular Diels-Aubre reaction is the most common one you will see and there are many intramolecular Diels-Aubre reaction which can give more rings okay when you talk about intramolecular Diels-Aubre reaction they are mentioned as IMDA intramolecular Diels-Aubre reaction say they write IMDA and again this IMDA is of two types one is type 1 the other one is type 2. So what is type 1? Type 1 intramolecular Diels-Aubre reaction means you have the dienophile attached to carbon number 1 of the diene. So if you look at this diene if you look at this diene you start numbering from here 1 2 3 4. Now the dienophile if this is attached to carbon number 1 if this is attached to carbon number 1 then this intermolecular Diels-Aubre reaction is called IMDA type 1 okay because it is attached to carbon number 1. So that normally gives a fused bicyclic system okay that normally upon intramolecular Diels-Aubre reaction gives fused bicyclic system whereas the type 2 where your dienophile is attached to carbon number 2 okay you can see 1 2 3 4. Now your dienophile is attached to carbon number 2 this preferably and most likely gives bridged bicyclic system okay this gives bridged bicyclic system and if you look at this to form the bridged bicyclic system you should have minimum 7 membered ring. So this will be always 6 membered ring is not it 4 plus 2 cycloaddition will give 6 membered ring but the ring size of the other ring which is going to be formed should be minimum 7 membered ring then only type 2 IMDA Diels-Aubre reaction will work. Now the reaction which we thought about or which Chapman used in the synthesis of carbonone is type 1 IMDA reaction because that gives fused bicyclic system. The other key reaction which he used is penacol coupling which I will come to that later. So for IMDA type 1 I am giving couple of examples so you can see it is type 1 because the whole dienophile unit is attached to carbon number 1 that undergoes intramolecular Diels-Aubre reaction to give this fused bicyclic system and this is another complicated system but that also you can see the dienophile is attached to carbon number 1. So this also should give the fused system whereas type 2 is where you have the dienophile attached to carbon number 2. So you can see here 1, 2 the dienophile is attached to carbon number 2 so that will give you the bridged bicyclic system. This is a classical example where you form this tricyclic system using an intramolecular type 2 Diels-Aubre reaction again here in this example you see 1, 2. So carbon number 2 of the dienophile is attached so that gives the bridged bicyclic system. So now what you have to look at is the ring size being formed as a result of this IMDA type 2 reaction. Obviously 1 ring will be 6 membered ring because this intramolecular Diels-Aubre reaction 4 plus 2 should give 6 membered ring but you should calculate the ring size. You should see the ring size of the other ring which is formed. So now if you look at this, this is 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8. As I said minimum 7 membered ring should be formed then only IMDA type 2 is possible. So here is 8 membered ring and in this example you can see 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8. Again this is 8 membered ring and this 8 membered ring could be successfully formed using IMDA type 2 reaction. Normally 8 membered rings are little difficult to form but using this IMDA type 2 one can easily make the 8 membered ring. The second key reaction is the oxidative phenolic coupling. In fact many biosynthesis involves this type of oxidative coupling reaction and Derek Barton has proposed that many benzyl isoquinolenes are converted into morphine alkaloids through this oxidative phenolic coupling reaction. So what happens? You take a phenol so under this condition it forms this O radical. The O radical can tautomerize and then you can get this ketone and this allylic radical. Now these two can combine one possibility and other possibility is the same thing can combine. So like this coupling reaction leads to the formation of dimerization. So I will give one example where how this oxidative phenolic coupling took place and what are the products possible for example if you take 2 naphthol and then treat with ferric chloride as you know this is one of the key reactions which is done in ton scale to form binols. And if you use further oxidation with potassium ferricinide so then it can form this bond. This is again through radical and then coupling reaction and it can also form to the other side. So this type of oxidative phenolic coupling is known and Chapman has cleverly used a combination of oxidative phenolic coupling and intramolecular type I Diels-Alde reaction as key reactions to synthesize carpano. Let us see. The starting material where you need the double bond trans double bond was made from this phenol. The first step was allylation with potassium carbonate and allyl bromide. Introduce the allyl group. Now what you need is that double bond should be isomerized. So now it is a terminal double bond. The double bond should go inside that should be internal double bond as well as you know it should be at this carbon. Two things we have to do. One this double bond has to go inside and that should be at the adjacent carbon. So the transfer of this allyl group to here can be easily done using glycentry arrangement. So you just take it and heat it at very high temperature maybe about 200. So one can easily get this glycentry arrangement product. Now still the double bond is in the terminal position. So what you need? The double bond should go here. So that is done using potassium tertiary butoxide and DMSO. So you treat with base strong base. So like potassium tertiary butoxide can generate and isomerize the double bond and isomerization takes place to get the trans allyl group. So the starting material is ready. Next key step is the phenolic coupling. So this phenolic coupling was best done with palladium chloride. So the palladium chloride it forms this dimer and once this dimer is formed so it can undergo you know the diradical and then the diradical will come and like this it will come in the same way it will come and then it will dimerize while dimerizing these 2 methyl groups will be trans to each other. These 2 methyl groups will be trans to each other. So now you can see that this is C2 symmetric compound and if you rotate this CC bond, if you rotate this bond like this what will happen you will get this particular intermediate. When you look at this particular intermediate you can see as originally planned by Chapman you can see here a diene this is a hetrodiene. You have oxygen as one of the atoms. You have oxygen as one of the atoms of the diene. So this is a hetrodeal salt reaction where hetro atom is present in the diene and that undergoes an intramolecular type 1 hetrodeal salt reaction straight away to give carpone. So basically from commercially available starting material from commercially available starting material carpone was synthesized by Chapman in 1971 through what one can call it as biomimetic route. So very elegant biomimetic synthesis of carpone was reported and his synthesis basically involved 4 steps starting from the corresponding phenol and the key steps are oxidative phenolic coupling and intramolecular cycloaddition reaction. And the overall yield was close to 50% you know you can imagine getting this compound natural product in 50% is really outstanding accomplishment. The second synthesis of carpone I will discuss is about Marsomoto synthesis. He also used the same intermediate the only difference is in the case of Chapman he used palladium here he used a saline complex. So the saline complex and this gave that directly the natural product not only the oxidative coupling took place but also the diene salt reaction. So he started from this phenol which was already reported by Chapman. So now he used molecular oxygen in the presence of a catalyst that gave directly carpone in one step okay. So what he did he took oxygen and cobalt to saline complex and that gives the radical. So that radical migrates and you get this allyl radical that spontaneously undergoes dimerization. So it does not give the cis-sysomer it gives only the trans-sysomer and the trans-sysomer as soon as it is formed it undergoes intramolecular supra-facial 4 pi plus 2 pi cycloaddition reaction to eat carpone in one step from the starting material which was already reported by Chapman okay. So if you look at this synthesis this is really a very elegant synthesis and this was obtained in 90% in a single step from the intermediate reported by Chapman okay. So I will stop here and then I will discuss about one more natural product called Nevinolene in the next class which is very interesting and complex natural product and that was the key starting point for making several you know cholesterol lowering drugs. See you next week. Thank you.


I wanted first to kind of try to find very Mexican like with words that you cannot really translate to any other language. My final project is an art installation about the construct of identity, how it's complex and multiple and with so much flux and diverse. I got inspired by myself being in a different environment and from Mexico City and I moved to Prague to Czech Republic three years ago so I was inspired by all the questions that just came at me of who am I and you know I could like retell that story on a new environment so all these questions inspire every piece that you will see in the installation. The preparations are going pretty great like the all the artworks are chosen so right now it's more technical on how they're going to be presented and where exactly on the space that I have. I think the main challenge was to choose the glaces or like the the exact medium that I needed like I always knew it was going to be like corn and ceramics like since the first year but because there is like a little game of what's real and what's not I really had to go into research of glaces and ceramics and like which one looks as the final result that I had so I wanted to go very thin on some pieces so I was using porcelain but not pure porcelain because that glace doesn't work with pure porcelain and you go from there just like testing pieces but when you when you nail it it's pretty cool. In the installation I will move the viewer and this movement you know of the body like getting closer to the pieces of farther away to like see them right to draw the artwork in general. I want like within the body movement and what you're seeing to experience that if you would be someone else you would be exactly them. If you would have born in that context with the DNA with that childhood with those parents with those friends growing up you would make the same decisions they're doing today and I think that's the only way how to approach the other and oneself with that compassion. You should really come to our exhibition and walk on the wild side like there's going to be for sure at least one piece you're going to relate everything is so raw like everything it's so personal but at the same time there is like this this gap where the viewer can put their own story and also it's going to have like so many other things like every day we're going to do something different there's going to be a workshop performance as a panel so for the four days there's going to be just full activities and I think it's like it's really worth it you should come.
