Kato's Alex Nowarasta, who is an immigration liberalizer, had a pretty good Twitter thread over the weekend, contextualizing all of this stuff. And even in the middle of that, he had this following thing that caught my eye. Quote, the immigration court backlog is currently about 3.3 million. Those migrants are going to be waiting, working and living in the United States for a long time and many won't leave even if the court orders them to go. That's just crazy untenable, isn't it? I mean, not just as a kind of practical thing, but certainly as a political thing. Yeah, I mean, Alex is basically always right about everything with respect to immigration. I associate myself with him. I can't think of a time that he's been wrong. So I think that, you know, his persistent efforts to point out what the status quo really is are really important. Like, they're here. They're already here. And that's again why I think this invasion language is so weird and so unhelpful. It's not like... This isn't a Mars attack situation. It's not a Mars attack situation. And, you know, the Martians are already among us, I guess, and it's fine. It's more like Alien Nation, which was itself an extended sci-fi parable about immigration assimilation. Great movie with Mandy Katinken. So as with actual aliens, when they come, we would be better off to welcome them, to talk with them, to have them, you know, to treat them with respect, to not have them risk their lives to come here. I can't speak to how the actual alien invasion is gonna go, but we already know what happens when we let people in. And, you know, when we let people in, and Nick is correct to note that the border is a mess, but one solution, which I know is not on the table right now in our current political climate, but one solution, one way to prevent a messy, deadly, confusing, politically polarizing, playable disaster at the border, is to just let people come here, to just make the doors of legal entry to throw them open wider. And it doesn't mean we have to let every single person come here, although I think maybe that would still be the way, honestly, but... The vast majority of people who don't have communicable diseases and don't have criminal histories. Take your astros in leave. Like, I just think in the end, if we are looking for a solution to this truly horrible situation, both at the border and all these people who are living within the country, who are being told at any time, you know, maybe your status will be revoked, maybe you will have to be thrown out, maybe you'll have to choose between staying where your life is and going into hiding, or going back to a place that you left for a reason, I just think that we could just choose more openness. That is really an option and I think the only morally defensible one, but I also think a really pragmatic one. I genuinely think that this is doable. And Alex, as usual, has like some excellent concrete steps that we can take, including stuff like, you know, getting the, you know, simplifying and speeding up the paperwork backlog for people who are already here. One of the points that Alex makes in that post that is very good is that this is a demand issue and this is a demand side issue because the US economy is in some ways, especially with regards to the job market, actually doing pretty well. And like there are a lot of job openings, especially for lower skilled labor. And so people want to come here. And so to me, the operating metaphor here is not movies from the 1990s about alien detectives or alien invasions. Instead, it's prohibition. And people resist this metaphor when it comes to immigration because they see it as something fundamentally different. But it's really very similar in so many ways because there is a demand for something. With prohibition, it was alcohol. With immigration, it is good jobs and a better life for your family. And that demand is not going to go away just because you try to put an artificial barrier in the way of it, right? Instead, people are going to try, they're going to try to get it through means that are more dangerous and more chaotic. And it's going to create a secondary market in violence and criminality. That is what happened in prohibition and it's what is happening with the border. And if you want to tamp down on crime and if you want to make it harder for gang members and violent people to come in, to cross the border, then what we need to do is we need to say people who are obviously peaceful and just want to come here and work and contribute to the economy, they can come in and there's an easy and straightforward process for them to do that. And then we're going to focus our efforts on catching the actual bad guys who want to come over here and do bad stuff. It'd be nice to hear a president who has the bully pulpit really come out and say exactly that, that we're a nation of immigrants and that everybody who wants to live and work peacefully is welcome here. It does cause disruption. We're going to meter it out. So it's not like a billion people coming in the first year or anything like that, but we're going to expedite it. Right now, as much as anything, and this is true not just of immigration, but it's true of economics, it's true of foreign policy, we don't have a national meta narrative of like what is America about? And as a result, you start to see people knock off things. Forced Republicans to say that they don't want anybody new in the country because things are perfect the way they are. Forced left-wingers to admit that we cannot admit people and not that this happens, but it's the fear, you can't just bring in a lot of people who are immediately going to go on welfare rolls, which by the way, if we continue with current asylum policy, if you bring people in and they can't work, that's like fucked up beyond belief. Let people come here and live and work openly and honestly, they don't get welfare, they don't necessarily get citizenship, but they do get legal status and they're going to move into the parts of the country where there are opportunity and that will take care of all sorts of problems rather than cause any. But we need to be talking about why immigration is important to the country, not just in economic terms, but also in kind of national and identity terms. And we also need to talk about the fears that people have where part of this is a larger anxiety that's throughout the country in all different ways about the future, about how things are shifting radically out of the world that most of us grow up in and didn't like when we had it, we wanted it to change, but now we look back nostalgically as if, you know, the 1970s when immigration was very low is somehow a good thing. I mean, fashion? Yes, it was a great thing, the 1970s. And it's pretty good in music, underrepresented, yeah. Proc rock and bell bottoms, bring them back. Matt likes the colors. Elephant, elephant bottoms, bell bottoms, elephant bottoms.


Howdy folks Anthony dream Johnson air president of the fucking man is here founder of 21 studios 21 convention Co-founder of the red man group founder of 22 convention 21 University and about a million other organizations operate Now today have a very special announcement for you guys as most of you know if you're following the channel for a while here We have 21 summit coming up in just a few days right here in Orlando, Florida and 21 summit It's the first time we're holding it It's actually the inaugural 21 summit first time ever and that's gonna be a three multi-conference multi-convention experience for the attendees and our staff and our speakers and our team here in Orlando, Florida The founding city of 21 convention way back in 2006 2007 Now as you can see here on the page, we have the main event the flagship event You guys have come to know in love for many years the 21 convention the world's ultimate convention for men Also known sometimes as the mansplaining event of the century and things like that That's coming up soon and I ran a couple days here and that's the main event for all men We also have the 21 convention patriarch edition, which we started last year in Orlando, Florida So now it's being held for its second time and that's a special version of 21 convention focused much more strongly on fathers and fatherhood And patriarchy family and marriage things like that Finally, of course, most of you should know now by now about the 22 convention make women great again That is our first ever women's conference. It's now infamous. It's reached over a hundred and fifty million people this year When super viral in the media and all over the world That's finally being held for its first time ever as part of the larger 21 summit super event with the patriarch event For fathers and then the main event, of course for men That's kind of real soon tickets are still on sale, but they're about to get shut off We're almost sold out all three events are basically packed at the max. We're down at each conference. It's a couple seats I'm very proud of that especially because it's a COVID year. So we're kicking ass. Fuck. Yeah This event's actually one of the biggest we've ever held in our entire 14-year history now 14 years one of the biggest events ever But aside from the events and the tickets you could still get there and all that they're about to shut off On top of that though, we have a very special announcement for the first time ever for the first time ever for a 21 convention for our company 21 studios and I believe to my knowledge for the first time in the history of the Manisphere and a man at a man is fear convention at a man is fear man is for gathering of world leaders from our community You know if made is he all the guys who we have it's amazing We're doing a pay-per-view live stream of that convention of the Woodstock with a man is fear.  Fuck. Yeah So that's gonna be a pay-per-view ticket, you know full all four days of the convention for the attendees It's actually like four and a half they come in a Wednesday night But for the filming and the speeches you guys know on YouTube. It's four days all day Thursday Friday Saturday Sunday Now it's the same for patriarch except patriarch and 22 convention which starts on Friday They're not part of the pay-per-view experience the pay-per-view ticket is for the main event the flagship event for men Next year will probably do more events pay-per-view, you know live stream But I'm gonna think about this for a couple of years and a lot of you have asked me for pay-per-view ticket to the event online Livestreaming obviously the technology exists, but I wanted to make sure that when we did it.  It's gonna be fucking awesome And I'm excited that we can perfect it and nail it right up the bet like everything that we do We fucking kick-ass hence that we've waited to do it until now And of course with COVID and all this crap a lot of you can't even come to the convention if you live in another country America many nations have all kinds of restrictions on flights and traveling and this and that It sucks and even though we're packing up the event We got a lot of guys coming there's a lot of people that just can't come because they can't fucking get a flight It's physically legally impossible and all that so I'm really happy that we could finally nail this and do it You know, it's the right year to get it off the ground kick-ass of the pay-per-view ticket Now we got it for you available anywhere in the world that you have, you know Good internet and a device to watch it the pay-per-view ticket pay-per-view ticket will play on any major web browser So, you know desktop laptop mobile tablet, whatever you got it'll be fun Now again for it's for the main event not the patriarch of 22 It's for the entire main event Thursday Friday Saturday Sunday And it's gonna be all the speakers you're gonna get to see here a whole bunch of them here J. Vincent high-tensity training fitness personal trainer the one and only George Bruno Pat Stubman coach EO Elliot Hulse Steve Brulay from Studio Brulay Socrates John Samas from Bulldog mindset Steve the motherfucking Dean Williams from the man mindset Tanner Guzzi from the parents of power in masculine style Ivan Throne the dark triad man the author of the nine laws of course myself Anthony dream Johnson I'll be speaking there on Sunday coach Greg Adams from Coach Greg Adams on YouTube and free agent lifestyle and Jesse Lee Peterson from the fallen state, you know huge guys interviewed him recently on the red man group and Terrence pop from Rodonkulous might even have more speakers to added at the last minute here There will also be three not one not two but three episodes of the red man group filmed live at the event That'll be part of this pay-per-view ticket Now the pay-per-view ticket costs 99 bucks a day so very affordable you can buy any day that you want You know Thursday Friday Saturday Sunday any combination of that or you can get the full 4-day pay-per-view ticket for 299. So basically you buy three days and you get one free So you're technically you'll save $97 boom I hope you guys found that fair. I think it's a pretty badass price Given the complexity and the money that goes into putting on an event like this I could tell you straight up the putting on in terms of finances and money and logistics Putting on one convention that we do or two per year or something like that depending on prior years How many we're doing per year? That's a very expensive pursuit and it's very it's massive It's a massive effort from everyone financially logistically spiritually so to speak psychologically It's massive, you know experience and expense and everyone from the speakers of the staff to myself to the attendees to everybody that That empowers it to kick ass and do everything that we do But yes 299 basically for the whole event or you could do 99 bucks a day and yeah This year man doing three conventions at the same time. It's it's massive and I want to mention this point too that if you're coming to the convention If one of the guys who's bought a ticket this year or in the past over a thousand alumni, I love you guys I appreciate you know coming out the event big time It's not just me that makes the event happen and the speakers and the staff and all that it's attendees Without the attendees who would not have the funding to do the conference our conference and our conventions are a hundred percent You know basically attendee funded We get other money too from little ads and super chats and stuff and all that but mostly it's the tickets man Guys come out they show up they make it happen They're the ones who fund this whole thing and then that goes out into the world and helps millions of men So it's bad ass they're coming out For you guys who can't make it for whatever reason we got this for you now for the main event and again It's 299 boom for the full event or 99 bucks a day One question I think a lot of people will have is can you buy like one day and then upgrade later to the full thing? Technically you can do that, but as far as I know with our system It's not going to give you like a discount. So you need to like make the call what you want to do I just recommend you 299 do the full thing But if you want to try to piecemeal at 99 bucks a day, that's on you and that's fun. I got a problem with it Anyway, there's some more details in the page. You can check out here kind of the scheduling What's going to go on just basics here with timing, you know days dates and all that Another thing too is that you're buying a pay-per-view ticket live stream to the conference itself So you have that starting Thursday all the way through the event depending on you know, what you do out what you buy excuse me In addition to that though, you have about three days So until October 7th and the event ends on October 4th at night on Sunday You're gonna have through October 7th that evening that night to watch the recordings So you can watch them live and you can watch them in for a few days after you're not buying the recordings themselves Because they're not really intended for that purpose long-term. We're gonna do a professional editing multi-cam edits all that super cool stuff You guys see on YouTube and at 21 University, but you will have a good three days Maybe even four I'll extend it by a day So you guys can actually watch and experience the convention live from wherever you want your phone your laptop whatever you got Throughout the page that actually lists some more details about the event.  Like this is the real stuff we're using It's very, you know complex but all together and we're happy to do it proud to do it It will be in 1080p and also be in lower resolutions automatically as you're watching So if you don't have super high speed internet, it'll still work just fine. No problem 720p 40p, whatever And then we also list all the speakers and I'll get to the conference schedule in a minute here So you guys can see what's going on But it's actually lists all the speakers here, too, you know that I'd listed off to you guys as well in the image And then we have some more promotional images down here, too Elliot Halls and Jesse Lee Peterson the reverend I interviewed recently Jay Vincent and Kutcher egg Adams and Pat Stubman and John Summers from Bulldog Mindset You'll see in our social media accounts on Instagram and Twitter. I'll be posting more promotional images like this By the way, if you are an existing pre-existing not tomorrow and all that the pre-existing 21 University member Active account or former you're actually going to get a discount on the pay-per-view ticket So it's a little welcome and thank you for being a member at 21 University positive education for men 21 University comm where this will all be streamed our own platform basically on a video platform and They're gonna do a nice discount Yeah, it's been pretty pretty substantial and I really appreciate you guys being a member there beforehand So hope that you get the ticket and use a discount You'll get an email a newsletter for the 21 University with a discount code. So wait until then to buy it. They'll be coming out You know same day as this video Now a little bit more demo demonstration here if you go inside 21 University comm You'll actually see each of the four days listed here already And this is actually what you'll go to watch them once you have an account Once you you know purchase the live stream whatever you choose and you go in there An example is day one of four. So Thursday. This is the actual page. It's live It's got a real countdown to when this actually starts and if you click that Boom you can purchase the one day 99 bucks or the full thing for 299 whatever you want to do so that's what it looks like and it's pretty simple thing and It's actually gonna have a live chat to privately for you guys who have it you paid for the access So that's pretty cool And we'll actually talk to you throughout the event and we'll actually take You know the the discretion of the speaker and you know, what's physically going on at the event We will take some questions from online at the event like in a live Q&A during speech So you could be part of the event One more thing to want to mention is that we will be broadcasting live as well to the YouTube channel 21 Studios right here It's gonna be a little preview so we'll preview about Say, you know 10 15 minutes something like that of each speech for free right here on the channel And then that'll cut off and go to the pay-per-view only and the pay-per-view will be going the whole time as well When that's going on so we'll be double streaming it But there will be free previews throughout the event. So that's pretty badass You guys don't gonna pay nothing you can just watch that and then of course, you know way down the line These videos will get edited and put out like we usually do at 21 University and then after that on YouTube so boom I did want to also mention that here's a schedule. It's still work in progress So it could change a little bit. That's just the nature of live events. It is what it is You know, something again a car accident that could be a medical emergency. I could maybe have to move someone a little bit You know, I have to maybe move You know, George Bruno to Friday and move Cochio to Thursday or something like that But for the most part this is the schedule is final Pending any small changes or an emergency happening to a speaker So I'll actually go through it kind of slowly for you guys. This is not on the page yet, but it will be later Let's see you guys here on video So we got Wednesday. There's an APM meet and greet and not for you guys though Thursday for the pay-per-view that's gonna open with myself an opening address Then Socrates Pat Stedman after lunch will be coach Greg Adams and George Bruno at the end of the day On Friday, it will be Jay Vincent. That's the giga Chad Chadzilla. I call him that guy over there Speaking on fitness and lifting weights and working out getting healthy and getting fit Starting out there and Tanner Guzzi Elliot Hulse And then after lunch we'll have Steve Williams Steve the Dean and coach EO I will interviewed also on the red man group earlier this year On Saturday, we will have start the day with John Summez from Bulldog Mindset Followed by the one and only Reverend Jesse Lee Peterson After lunch, we'll have Terence Pop from Redonkulus and finally Steve Broulet at the end of the day there These times by the way are approximate most likely will actually go longer So the start times will be pretty accurate and the day is typically run at least 15 minutes over So you'll see on the the website it even says like approximately a little symbol So you can expect these to go a little bit longer And then finally on Sunday the day will begin with Ivan Throne and myself giving a keynote address And then after lunch, we'll have three episodes of the red man group back to back boom boom boom each one about 75 minutes long And then finally, we will have closing remarks by myself and maybe Socrates at the end of the day there That's the event. There could be a one or two more speakers added to the event last minute But this pretty much is what's going on here for the conference with your pay-per-view ticket and for the guys attending So I hope you guys get your ticket.  It's pretty late in the game a couple of days out here But pay-per-view is gonna be live. It's gonna be badass. It's gonna be perfect superb top notch golden quality Like everything we do at 21 studios and 21 convention So I look forward to seeing you at the event if you have a real ticket and if you have pay-per-view I appreciate your support support the channel support what we do and educating yourself making your life and Becoming the best the best you can and then making yourself the best man you can be I'll see you guys soon at the event if you have a ticket Otherwise, I guess we'll see in the live stream when I'm talking to you literally from the 21 convention stage Peace out and we'll see you soon


All right, our first theme today is probably the theme that is the most significant, relevant, and repetitive theme that we're going to see this semester. If you do nothing more in anatomy than take notes, study your notes, and then ask yourself every day what examples of the theme structure determines function did we see today in this course? You actually will come out of the course with a really deep and meaningful and powerful understanding of human anatomy. So structure determines function seems really straightforward and hopefully you're like, oh yeah, the study of structure, hello, seriously, the study of structure is, that is by definition, the study of anatomy. Now, because structure determines function, the study of function is the study of physiology. Physiology. Because structure, anatomy, determines function, physiology, you cannot separate these two concepts. We are in a human anatomy course, but we absolutely will be talking about function or physiology. You will then take a human physiology course, which is an awesome class, and you won't be able to talk about the function of the human body without talking about the anatomy. So yes, we separate out the classes here at College of the Redwoods. Many programs do not separate out the classes, and I prefer it this way, but I think probably everybody prefers the way that they do it.  Okay, pretty straightforward. We're going to see it every day. Let's do the next theme.


Give it give it some extra time the the bicep blowing out May you know the whole arm had to get strength to build with each other, so just give it more time John Carl, I don't know if you've already answered this But what's the timetable you have in mind at this point? I don't know. I don't know Start swinging again and go from there Start swinging again Okay, how do you feel at this point? I'm just gonna ramp up and see how it goes. So there's no major update for you guys Do you have any discomfort now, or are you healed? No major update for you guys Hit tomorrow and go from there


Please rise and remain standing for the arrival of the official party, National Anthem, and invocation. The National Anthem will be sung by Ms. Julie Zekker. Oh say can you see, by the dawn's early light, What so proudly mean, whose broad stripes and bright stars fight, O'er the land of the free and the home of the brave? And Her Douglassy Rose-Anne here at the Naval War College Chapman will deliver the invocation. Let us pray. From ancient Scripture, an intelligent heart acquires knowledge, and the ear of the wise seeks knowledge. Merciful Lord in Heaven, we ask for Your presence with us today. Graduation marks a milestone in the life of each one being recognized for their many months of hard work and perseverance. These students have been stretched, challenged, and tested. Thank you for their hard work and success. As a result of their time here, may they be better equipped to lead, serving our nation and benefiting others. Thank you for their instructors and mentors, as well as their families and friends who have encouraged them along the way. Now please be with those being recognized today for their achievements, and keep us all mindful of Your presence, through the one who saves. Amen. Ladies and gentlemen, please be seated. It gives me great pleasure to introduce the members of our official party. Dr. Michael Pavkovic, Chair, Strategy and Policy Department. Professor Alan J. Abramsen, Chair, Joint Military Operations Department. Dr. Jay Hickey, Director, College of Distance Education. Dr. David Cooper, Chair, National Security Affairs Department. Dr. John Garifano, Dean of Academic Affairs. Professor William Spain, Provost. Dr. Toshi Yoshihara, John A. Van Buren, Chair of Asia Pacific Studies, Strategy and Policy Department. Rear Admiral P. Gardner Howe III, President, United States Naval War College. Good day and welcome to all the guests at today's ceremony. Several years ago, we began a tradition at the Naval War College of allowing the graduating student body to nominate their guest speaker, from amongst all the talented professionals at the college. I would like to ask graduating student, Lieutenant Commander Michael Pine to introduce your faculty guest speaker. All right, thank you, Captain. I'm proud to be able to introduce our keynote speaker, Dr. Toshi Yoshihara. Although I was a student of his in Strategy and War, my first introduction to him actually came a year earlier at a Navy exchange on the Washington Navy Yard. There, I was browsing a bookshelf while waiting for something and came across the section for the Chief of Naval Operations Professional Reading Program where the Navy exchange had stocked some books on that recommended reading list. And among those books was a book called Red Star Over the Pacific co-authored by Dr. Yoshihara. And that name stuck with me after reading for a couple of minutes because it showed me that clearly there are people out there who are actually paying attention to the world. As it turns out, his name is attached to much more than a book on a reading list. A full rundown of his many academic credentials would take away all of his time to speak, but it suffices to say that he brings a wealth of knowledge and experience to his teaching. He has a bachelor's degree in the Science of Foreign Service from Georgetown University and a master's in international affairs from Johns Hopkins University at the School of Advanced International Studies. He has completed his doctorate at the Fletcher School of Law and Diplomacy at Tufts University. Here at the Naval War College, Dr. Yoshihara holds the John A. Van Buren Chair of Asia Pacific Studies and he is also an affiliate member of the China Maritime Studies Institute here at the War College. Now during his academic career, he has also had associations with the Air War College and the Army War College. So he's been doing a lot. Now I'll turn to his time at the Army War College since he was too smart to leave me with an embarrassing tale from his time teaching me in SNW. There at the Army War College, he wrote a paper detailing Chinese interest in information warfare, things like computers and cyber and the messaging that they put out. And that's an interest that we've increasingly seen the concrete results of in the news. Now what was striking to me was that he wrote this paper in November 2001, long before the news was filled with stories of Chinese hacking. A lot has changed since then. The iPod and Windows XP had just been released. Cell phones were either flip phones or the Nokia Candy Bards. Osama bin Laden had not yet been flushed from the caves at Torobora. The USS Virginia attack submarine was still 18 months from being launched. And even today we're discussing her successor. Enron was around, although nearly bankrupt. And pop culture references at the time or the pop culture included in his paper was a phantom menace since Star Wars Episode II hadn't been released yet. Yet despite this churn, Dr. Yoshihara's 2001 paper into the strategy of information warfare showed a great deal of foresight demonstrating Mayhem's principle that the foundations of strategy remain firm even if the tactics change from time to time. And it gives us a great example for budding strategists to look to. So without further ado, please join me in welcoming Dr. Toshi Yoshihara to the podium. Mike, thank you very much for that very kind introduction to the official party. Thank you. Dear graduates, family and friends of the graduates, distinguished guests, it is my honor to join you on this happy occasion. At the War College, we often repeat the mantra that there are no school solutions. And we mean it. I'm sure you've asked a question expecting a straight answer from one of the oracles. Instead you get, you got it, it depends. Honestly, sometimes it's because we have absolutely no idea what you've just asked of us. But more often, instead of offering answers, we try to cultivate a habit of thought that prods all of us to ask the important questions. So I have two questions for you this morning. What lessons have you learned from your time at the War College and how do you plan to apply those lessons after your return to the fleet and to the field? For a change, finally, I'll answer those questions from my own perspective. I'll give you my take with a personal story. I grew up on Taiwan. I reached young adulthood in tumultuous but exciting times. For my entire childhood, I lived under martial law on the island. I remember how the Taiwan Garrison Command, basically the secret police, enforced martial law and maintained a visible presence in society. In the 70s and 80s, my father ran a factory in Taipei. The command attached an observer, a spy, if you will, in my father's office headquarters. He was in all of the meetings and attended all of the social events that my dad hosted. It was frankly kind of creepy. Every year, a member of the command would visit my house and interview us for what seemed like forever. I had a glimpse of life under authoritarian rule. Then in the summer of 1987, martial law was finally lifted. At the time, it was the longest on earth, 38 years and 57 days. The lifting was one early step to politically liberalize the island, leading to the first free presidential elections less than a decade later. In late 1987, South Korea followed with its first Democratic presidential elections. A year before, people power had swept Ferdinand Marcos out of power in the Philippines. These three Asian countries joined what Samuel Huntington at Harvard called the third wave of democratization. It was an absolutely amazing and formative experience for me. The credit, of course, goes to the courageous Taiwanese, Koreans and Filipinos. They made democracy possible. They shattered the prevailing notion at the time that Asian societies, particularly Confucian ones, were culturally and historically unsuited for democratic governance. Today, Taiwan remains a powerful counterpoint to those who insist that the Chinese on the mainland are somehow inherently incapable of self-governance. The young Hong Kongers on the streets in the past months are another potent symbol of the ongoing quest among the people of greater China for self-government. So, what's the connection between my personal experiences in Taiwan in the 1980s and you? Well, I would argue that the people of Taiwan were the beneficiaries of the hard lessons that Americans drew seven decades ago. Statesmen and strategists, including President Franklin Roosevelt, drew a clear lesson from World War II and its origins. The lesson was, never again. Never again would the United States remain disengaged from world affairs and allow things to go so badly that only tremendous sacrifices by the American people would restore the world order. To prevent the rerun of a global disaster, American leaders decided to put forward forward defense in Europe and in Asia to maintain a favorable balance of power, sustain deep economic engagement in those same areas to promote open trade and finance, to foster stability and promote growth, create and defend institutions and rules modeled after American institutions at home to reinforce stability and economic interdependence. In sum, those leaders decided in the midst of World War II to lead a new international order. And we are still very much living that order, what we now call a liberal world order. The dramatic political developments in Asia that I described above are inseparable from those lessons drawn in the 1940s. The peace and prosperity that made those political movements possible were underwritten in no small part by American military power and American restraint. Forward-deployed American forces kept the sea lanes open for commerce. The Seventh Fleet ensured that all countries could freely use the seas without reducing their availability to all others. Giving more than it took, American restraint and largesse provided much-needed financial aid and kept the U.S. market open, often on terms unfavorable to itself to fuel the export-led economies of maritime Asia. Power and restraint created a virtuous cycle of peace, stability and wealth generation that in turn tipped the political balance in those Asian countries. Now, what does this experience tell us today? Well, first of all, with the caveats, history never repeats itself. There is no reason to believe that those Asian experiences, unique to those particular places and times, could ever be replicated exactly elsewhere. Along the way, we've committed strategic errors, which we've studied here at the War College. The Vietnam War comes to mind. We have learned over the past decade that societies cannot be molded at gunpoint. Finally, we did not do this out of altruism. We did it during the existential Cold War struggle, and our forward strategy ultimately favored our interests and our own prosperity. But we should not lose sight of the larger lesson. The U.S.-led international order produced the enabling conditions for self-government in Asia. Robert Kagan memorably likened this international order to a garden. It requires constant patient tending, and it takes vigilance to keep out the weeds and to keep the hostile surrounding jungle from encroaching on this garden. For decades, we planted, we pruned, we watered, and we fertilized that garden, while keeping the invasive and harmful varieties at bay. Now, it's easy to take all of this for granted. It's also easy to argue that we had nothing to do with the order, or that the order would be fine without us. At the same time, foreign and domestic troubles in recent years have led to calls for retrenchment. The cynics, moreover, argue that we do more harm than good. These views show that this consensus that this order is worth defending is reversible. It is a choice we make as a nation. It is a choice that can be unmade. Retreat is indeed a choice. We could, to use Kagan's metaphor, use to let the chaos of the jungle take over the fragile liberal order. Until then, however, we collectively have a job to do to sustain the will and the resources to defend the liberal world order. And we look to you, the custodians of the military instrument and other implements of national power to serve as the ultimate backstop to this order. In Asia, the quiet deterrent power of the U.S. armed forces remain as vital today as it did in the darkest days of the Cold War. Now, it may be the recent immigrant in me speaking, but I believe in the purpose and power of the United States. I have reason to believe because I've worked with you and your peers for over a decade. I have witnessed your professionalism and your constant pursuit of excellence. I have heard the arguments you made in class and read the papers you wrote. You wrestled with the dilemmas of being a leading power in world affairs with the difficult choices and sacrifices that must be made and with the contingent nature of international politics. I am confident that you will more than live up to those higher purposes that have enabled the United States to lead and to shape the world and in my small corner of the world in Asia to set the conditions for transformation. I want to thank you for your service and to wish you every success. Dr. Yoshihara, on behalf of the students, staff, and faculty, I thank you for your comments today and your ongoing contributions and service to our country. For each graduating class, one student is selected for recognition as a president's honor graduate. This award is presented to the student who best displays the high standards of academic performance, naval war college activities, participation in civic and community service, and the promotion of military services in the public interest. For the College of Naval Warfare, the honor graduate for the November 2014 graduating class is Colonel Michael Getchell. Colonel Getchell, would you please come up to the stage to receive your award. Colonel Getchell is graduating number one in his College of Naval Warfare class and was a seminar leader all three trimesters. Along with the certificate, he is receiving an engraved Weems and Plath Compass from the Naval War College Foundation. His name will be added to the perpetual plaque of honor graduates. For the College of Naval Command and Staff, the honor graduate for the November 2014 graduating class is Lieutenant Commander Jason Buddy. Lieutenant Commander Buddy is graduating number one in his College of Naval Command and Staff class. He served as a seminar leader and was awarded the Marine Corps Association Award as a political leadership of a military at war. Along with the certificate, he's receiving an engraved Weems and Plath Compass from the Naval War College Foundation. His name will be added to the perpetual plaque of honor graduates. We'll now give our honor graduates a few moments to address their fellow graduates and classmates. Admiral Howe, Professor Spain, Professor Yossi Hara, the distinguished guests, faculty, fellow graduates, and your family members. Good afternoon and thank you for the opportunity to say some brief remarks today. To the faculty here at the Naval War College, thank you for the intellectually challenging us all. Today's world is complex as Professor Yossi Hara just pointed out to us once again. And this complexity presents leaders at all levels with many challenges. You have equipped each of us with a set of tools to help frame problems, analyze the different aspects of those problems, and likely solutions to those problems, and assess progress towards solving those problems. Beyond just thinking about problems and solutions, you've improved our ability to communicate our analysis and recommendations. Finally, you have introduced all of us to the phenomenal reach back capability here at the college. We are not alone when we face today's strategic challenges. And I for one, we want to phone a friend for a lifeline for assistance when I return to the force. To my fellow graduates, I, too, extend a heart of congratulations on a job well done. Today we return to the operational fleets and forces or the institutional side of the services or the joint staff. We return with new skills. Moreover, we return with new friendships and better understandings of what each service brings to the joint team. Build upon our professional relationships that were developed here. In terms of mission accomplishment, they'll serve you well. More importantly, they'll help you better take care of the soldiers, sailors, Marines, airmen, Coast Guardsmen that you'll lead. Finally, we cannot forget those classmates who were the uniform of another nation or that of the civil service. Our team is larger than a single service or the joint force itself, and includes other agencies, allies, and multinational partners. The skills and professional relationships we developed here will greatly assist us as we navigate this complex world. Best of luck to you all in your future endeavors, and thank you. Good afternoon. I just want to take this opportunity to thank the staff, the administration for providing a surprisingly wonderful experience here over the last year. Far superior to my last formal naval education at a small engineering school in Annapolis, Maryland, where I spent most of my time on restriction, and got one award for accumulating demerits, and that was about it. I really, really enjoyed this year, the education provided here, and I knew it was going to be different. I knew it was going to be special on day one. I showed up to my first class in strategy and warfare with two tremendous professors, Bradley and John Sheehan. They had assigned about 15,000 pages of reading, of which I accomplished about maybe 50%, but I did my best, and they started the class and said, we'd like everyone to share something they found interesting in the reading today. And I thought, all right, this is a thinly veiled attempt to see who did their homework and who didn't. But I had a good little antidote, so when it came to my turn, I said, I thought it was interesting that Clausewitz didn't fault Napoleon for invading Moscow. I mean, I'm just a helo-bubba, and I'm not a military expert, but that was one of the greatest military defeats in history. So I thought it was interesting that he didn't criticize Napoleon. And he said, given the situation, that might have been the only course of action for Napoleon, the best course of action. Well, I was patting myself on the back thinking, all right, I did my check in the box, and I can get ready for cocktail hour. I was interrupted by Commander Sheehan, who said, good, Jason, good, what should Napoleon have done? I didn't find that in the reading, and I quickly learned that they weren't trying to see who had done the reading. They were trying to see if we could take the lessons from the greats of old and apply them to problems and find new ways of thinking and new solutions. And I wasn't ready that day to answer that question, but I am now, and I want to thank all of you for helping me to do that. Thank you. A Master of Arts degree in National Security and Strategic Studies will now be conferred to the graduates. Will the graduates please rise? Admiral Howe, will you please approach the podium? Admiral, I have the honor to present the November graduates of the Naval War College, candidates for the Master of Arts in National Security and Strategic Studies.

Ladies and gentlemen, please join us in a round of applause for our graduates, honorees, and their families. Rear Admiral Howe will now issue the charge to the graduates. Admiral, if you would, please proceed to the podium. So it's now my honor to bring these proceedings to a close. First to Dr. Yoshihara, thank you for your thoughtful, meaningful remarks today, and for your continued scholarship here at the college. It's an honor to share the stage with you today. With the Naval War College faculty and staff, today we again witness the results of your efforts. For 130 years, you and your predecessors have labored to develop and educate the Navy's and our nation's leadership. And once again, you have succeeded producing yet another cohort of well-prepared leaders for the increasingly complex and challenging security environment we face. Thank you for your dedicated service to the nation. To the families, friends, and colleagues here today, thank you for joining us. Your presence not only makes this a more memorable ceremony for your graduate, but it rightfully recognizes the role you play in the accomplishments we celebrate. Life in the military is a team sport. Your love, your encouragement, your devotion helped our graduates maintain the proper mind, body, spirit balance as they went through their intellectual journey here in Newport. Thanks for your support. To the graduates, congratulations on completing your course of study here at the Naval War College. As you all head back to the operational forces and reflect upon your time here at Newport, I'd ask you to keep in mind three things.  This year of in-residence education is truly a gift, a gift from the nation to you. As you continue to grow in rank and responsibility, I think you'll find that the most precious commodity is that of time. And you've just been given a whole year, a year of study, a year of reflection, a year to grow intellectually and prepare for the challenges that await. Don't take this gift for granted. And I'd offer that the best way to do that, to ensure that you don't take this gift for granted, is to acknowledge the responsibility that you have just inherited. And that is to critically and thoughtfully employ this education as you move forward. As you all head back into the operational world, back into the world of present shock where the strategic horizon gets compressed from decades and years to days and at times minutes. When your daily agenda will often be set by that morning's headlines and the morning email inbox. So as you come face to face with that world, you've got a responsibility to remain a strategically minded critical thinker. To proactively lead with independent creative thought and not just reactively survive with conventional wisdom or just doctrinal habits. So think, reflect, and lead.  Never forget the trust this nation has placed in your hands as a member of this profession. Never forget your obligation to uphold that trust and never forget the professional ethic that guides our actions. Our actions at home, in garrison, in the field, and underway. Continue to grow as a true steward of that profession. Good luck. Godspeed and wish you all fair winds and following seas. Chaplain Rosander will now deliver the benediction. Please stand. Let us pray. Eternal God, for these men and women, a rigorous and challenging academic year is now at a close. But their voyage continues. As they go from here, serving on land, sea, or air, here and around the world, may their knowledge, skills, wisdom, and friendships be fully utilized in maintaining and spreading peace and security. Enable them with honor, courage, and commitment in all things, and protect them as they serve. I also ask that you watch over those who serve today in harm's way. Please be near to their loved ones and also to those recovering from the effects of war. Now, bless these men and women as they go forth to do great things. Thank you for the service they render to our nation. Please be with them and their families as they depart for new destinations and challenges. By your grace. Amen. Ladies and gentlemen, please remain standing for the departure of the official party. Thank you all for attending today's graduation. This concludes the ceremony.


All right, separate traders welcome on back here this Thursday January 13th shortly after 2 30 p.m. Eastern time Welcome on back for our afternoon meeting great to see Andrea Norman Brian who you wrote earlier. He jinxed the QS Tree I don't know about that Brian will check in with the QS trade great to see will great to see Patrick great to see Devin all of us otherwise live inside the cyber group room Gary Lawrence Phil Glenn all joining us as well Included perfect. All right, so and and once again if you're joining us back on social media Facebook live or YouTube Pokemon Walk my back. So stop right into it here. Andrea just called out the AUPH trade right before we started the meeting Really nice call out at the time and hopefully this keeps going. You know you I always say I love the afternoon volatility On a stock like this wasn't doing much up until this point, but obviously some sort of news had to have come out That would be my guess at least Let me just pull this up really quick. I didn't check this before we started the meeting.  I got nothing I got no news on a uph so far Normally if there is news that were to come out Benzinga pro here that I use they would they would be pretty Early to the punch if not all over it So, you know if there is any news perhaps they'll report it once they see it, but either way pop We'll put this on our watch list for the afternoon just given the afternoon volume of all utility All right, I had another one that I saw from Benzinga, but the chart honestly did not look good whatsoever So we're gonna pass on that one. We'll probably find it on the gainer side as we go through But I'll tell you what we had a pretty good date today all together If it wasn't just you know one stack on the way up Then it could have been a nice short on the way down with the market So, you know, let's just go right from top to bottom any of the other stacks that we ended up trading our call Going out from earlier today. We'll quickly recap and then from that point we'll kind of build up our list, you know, as we go Gino just typed inside cyber group right now the top percent gainer here the sgly and of course We're gonna start right from the top with this trade ended up just breaking a new high the day itself So great call from Gino here live side cyber group Yeah, it is looks right hard for hard for us to not put the top percent gainer Which is at the highs on the afternoon watch list here So for right now, let me just zoom out on the daily chart so not all-time highs but It's approaching clearly as you could see here really strong resistance roughly off the highs back from last week<PHONE_NUMBER> I would just lean and say anywhere between 541 to 545 You should have a pretty strong daily chart level Then if it breaks that then we'll check back in with this trend in a bit We'll see you know where the next daily chart level is You know there could always be a nice bird order that pops up on level three my trade station matrix on the far right side So just be mindful of that right? Gino look at that man. He just picked up 50 cents He just closed out as trade just now as we're doing this meeting Gino loved the trade man What was the entry point on that on that? Sat on that stock be jumped into the sgly what was the entry point there probably got in right off at like 475 or so I guess Just gonna type it in the chapel here in a moment. Let's keep going over the meantime though The sgly definitely will pull put on our watch list here so far for the afternoon You know otherwise they got a couple cheapies here on the gainers list You know you're the ESG C trade this one I guess is trying to inch back up right now, but after our MTI from earlier today I don't know I mean this was just such a dud after the open I was so hopeful for this to make a bigger pot perhaps even as high up to 80 82 or 83 cents That was a really strong daily chart level as well looking at this our MTI stack over here Just about 83 84 cents, you know really strong support You would assume for that to be a really strong resistance if it were to get up to there Yeah, I didn't even come close So, you know, that's why I'm not normally as much of a fan of these like cheapies below a dollar because they Normally don't make as concise of a move as you would hope to see All right, how about this couple things here in the chat board going back to sgly Gino ended up getting in on that trade at 486 so that was pretty close. There we go So Gino in at 486 got out with a 50 cent profit I ended up getting out pretty damn close to the highs that then in that case excellent Michael on a uph just posting the news on that stock right now inside cyber group Oh, that's right. It wasn't up as much we'd find it But APH reports positive update to drug to on a drug to treat active lupus. That's pretty much it So, you know, I pop up nicely dropping back down pretty nicely Hopefully that stock and build up some support as we keep going well the next one up your deb inside Inside the cyber group room says, you know, bbig up to 350, right? This is that literally the next stock on the gainers list here. So let's keep going You know needless to be said looking at the chart this goes right on our watch list so far bbig Now I mentioned this earlier Deb, so just be careful and not just above not just at 350 but above 350 355 there's a bit of an order around there 360 out a suit 370 there's like a tinier iceberg if that's what you want to call it a 365 like 10,000 shares, but 55 60 are also big levels out also soon 370 to be if this keeps pushing up nicely and and it is let's say About 14,000 shares so far 370 355 issue of a combination of some bigger orders here 360 about 28,000 shares So this one's looking really really good so far and I just continued moving yesterday, right? All right, so we'll keep it going a zk in I feel like this is another nft type of stock I could be rolling on that. I don't really care to check just to say right now This stock is pushing up relatively nicely here a bit spotty on the chart up until going into like 2 p.m That's when it started to trade a little bit more volume But the way it looks right it's hard for us to put this on a zk. Oh, yeah Dave not even busters necessarily Dave inc Uh, I don't know what the daily chart is showing me here folks. This is all over the map Uh, I guess either a new ipo or something had to have happened to allow this drop off Basically 10 down to 5 that back up to 750 today Man, it's all over the map By the way, look at the top 2% losers here today. I just wanted to point that out something pretty funny I thought the vine trade would have moved with vine today. Well, I was right, but wrong in the direction You know what I mean? Like I thought because the vi any trade pushed up so nicely the last two days That's practically as to why vine v y any is up so much and that actually ended up dropping so much today That's now the top percent loser. That was on the gainers list to start off So keep it going though. Otherwise here folks, uh kbh Uh a bit expensive, but I'll tell you what this thing for 49 $50 stock nearly trading a lot of volley per minute The daily chart here pretty fast Let's stick on monthly here for a little while, but uh, yeah, it's not at all time highs Getting a little close to 52 week highs and multi year highs perhaps for that month I don't know. I don't really feel it needs to put this type of stock on our watch list I want to focus on stocks that have better liquidity. We already have four on our watch list so far they do So, you know, I'll come back to this at the end I don't mind slipping this on our list if you don't really have too many to work off of But let's see if there's anything else looking better and with that bbb y is definitely a stock I would much rather follow heading into the afternoon right in terms of liquidity and price This thing's, you know, three to four times cheaper than the other one and you know, penny spread the whole way through It's been on a tear the whole day ended up making a nice drop off at least after failing to move up higher from 16 25 Uh, but getting right back up to 16 right now. So yeah bed bath beyond. We'll definitely put on our watch list Speaking of the nft stocks we had t cat. We ended up having y y vr. I think it was Those were the two nft stocks that ended up making a big pop here Today, it's the monthly chart, right? So dating back to january february of you know last year We ended up seeing them explode make a huge move up. It was t cat it was y v r Same exact spike on the monthly chart there. Uh, the other one I think was ocj This door you were stuck in your IPO, but same thing Uh, but t cat's the one that only one that we ended up really fell t cat today and and the y vr Both of those we actually ended up following today, but uh, you know, just keep them on your side list tomorrow and next week Perhaps going forward perhaps in bitcoin Blue apron, this is one that we're pretty familiar familiar with we end up trading this off It's ipo and then you know as well going into this year ended up making a bit of a smaller short squeeze Ended up running up pretty nicely, you know for a few days in a row Uh for right now pushing up pretty nicely, you know decent volume on the order book I don't mind it. I don't mind slipping this on our list for right now blue apron Grub hub here a couple of other familiar names just on the gainer side We'll jump over to the loser's list next and looking at the way the spy looks you would know I would say this at this point and i'm sure that we would find more You know on the loser side as a short michael calling out mara Space has been a drop-off throughout the morning heading into the afternoon so No, there's definitely gonna be a few stocks kind of uh turning their Way on turning themselves on the way down or if not at the lows right now, so We'll check in on the loser's side here in a second Here per se save spirit airlines ended up making a nice move from this morning I feel like the airlines all together ended up doing so but the way the spies looking right now This is where I was saying they're beginning to turn themselves on the way down here making lower highs beginning to pull back here You know American Airlines pretty much always tradable unless it's just too slow to the point of you know trying to follow The stock trades a lot of volume on a day-to-day basis Between this spirit here. I mean I would mind adding them to our watch list I just want to see if there's anything more clear on the way up or on the way down more so heading into the afternoon All right, so let's just check out vine and vine and space and then everything else here What a disaster vi any let's just check go back to the daily chart for right now So this is the stock that we ended up seeing back from Tuesday's trading ended up making a huge breakout from four all the way up to eight ended up dumping all the way back down to six Well yesterday ended up going all the way back up from five fifty all the way up to over nine Came all the way back down to seven You can't keep expecting the stock to go up and up and up But this morning we ended up seeing uh not vi any but the Why any this stock was on the top of the gainers list this morning? It's a cheapy, but it was up like what 15 20 percent this morning It was one of the top five gainers if not top three It's crazy to see a top percent gainer literally turn into one of the top percent losers across the day But you know just goes to show and even if there is news that came out on the stock that led to the pump up early Uh, you know that makes my you know case here even better Just to say that you can't hope and hold you can't anticipate for the stock to just make a higher high After the open or at some point throughout the day just because it was up to begin with Right and if news came out good news of that matter, you know, you can't hope on the news You can't rely on the news look what happened to this thing So if you try day trading this, you know trying to you know hit it big on a cheap stock trading five 10 20,000 shares Think about it. That's not a whole lot of money compared to you know trading a thousand shares of a $20 stock same thing So, you know, there are folks that do that, but imagine holding on That's where you get crushed So, you know what we teach here at cyber trading university exactly is exactly how to prevent doing that, right? You know the the simple answer is say to say hey, you could just set a stop, right? But a lot of us are still pretty timid of setting the stops. It's not just about the mechanics of doing it It's about the psychology behind it and that's what we teach So, you know as we keep going well, you know, not everything we're trying to buy and sell Maybe something we're trying to short and then perhaps cover into the close look at space Make a lower high lower high just recently roughly off of 1040 1045 and we're dropping back down to the lows of the day here I would assume for there to be a major support off of 10 Man, this is crazy. I I can't believe space ended up dropping off as much as it did over the last year Look at this daily chart.  You could start to say that's back from November of 19, it's got a little bit of a ways to go but 690 all-time low it looks like All right, so space as a short, you know, we'll try and follow this further on the way down Qtt on the gainers list last couple of days. It's at the lows, you know, shortable, you know, cheapy Uh, you know, tradable in that regard, but the chart honestly is a bit spotty here It's only trading 855,000 shares, which is enough, you know at this time of the day for what we teach But the more the the more the better typically unless if it's trading just too much Uh, you gotta find a bit of a gray area and the gray area is pretty big to be honest But uh, I don't know. This just doesn't really seem that worth it for right now Uh, then everything else is hard to borrow You can't really get the shares to short if it's on the losers list You can but now you have to check in early oftentimes heading into this time of the day. They're impossible to borrow Uh Everything else otherwise that is shortable Pl this was one we ended up trading yesterday. Oh, this one's dropped off pretty nicely Oh nice I'd rather look at this. I'd rather follow this one heading into the close compared to that qtt, right Better prioritize. So this pl trade. I don't want if I do Huh, really got nice burn right now literally at the low of the day 12 13 000 share order on the bid at 560 Oh, I really quick folks for all this live inside cyber group This doesn't unfortunately pertain to anyone on social media It can if you want to join us live inside our trading room But it's to say for anyone that's a part of the phase two stock course I caught probably what is one of the the coolest most intriguing sequences in terms of you know order flow and volume That I've personally have ever seen in the last like seven years that I've been here btcs This stock is cooked right now, and I'm sure we would have found this at some point I should be one of it's only still up 1% I thought it was down enough to make the losers list at this point, but uh, you know Either way needless to be said we're not going to watch this stock heading into the close But I saw probably what was one of the more intriguing Sequences of order flow, you know these huge orders stacked up on the bid at the same exact price I think it was at 770. I was calling it out inside the live trading room. Just keep this in mind I don't expect anybody to remember to stay over day, but We'll come back to this in march when I teach the the next set of classes regarding level three You know the order book order flow all together some cool stuff on the way So I took a really good picture of it right before it happened Stock ended up squeezing up perfectly from 762 770 ish that area all the way up And it ended up coming right back down after after failing to test nine So, you know right after that a lot of us end up getting out as as far as an early afternoon trade myself Ari I think patrick at that point though. This thing was cooked. You know, this thing is done now You know for as much as it ran up the last two and a half days You got to expect this stock to begin to pull back and if it's not going to break higher You know what's going to happen. So Just wanted to mention that as far as like an interesting thing that we followed inside the live trading room earlier today, but that's it Michael's got amc low the day down over 5% sure is looks good Ford on the way down to 25 I mean Ford's definitely a tradeable stock by all measures if you do well on Ford on a day-to-day basis Then, you know, I'm sure that you'd be more inclined to follow for today You know, I could say this with pretty much like every other sideless stock out there Leo charts us look that great, but you know, I'm sure I could say that to a good degree I could say that on, you know, one of the airlines I could say that on a cruise line perhaps like ccl So, uh, you know, if I don't add it to the main watch list if you if you know who you are in the trading room You know, I'm sure that you have a pretty good idea as far as tradeable not tradeable and all that stuff Uh, narrow at the low of the day from Michael that was earlier and it is down near 7% Uh, we'll talk bitcoin tomorrow folks and then we'll check in with that heading into the weekend But for right now, ma'am are moving with the market right now heading into the afternoon So, you know what I'm more intrigued by putting this on our list is this is just right near the lows, right? Uh, let's check in on riot pretty quick why it's not making as a steady of a drop interesting Interesting mic. All right. Well, ma'am definitely we'll put on our watch list for for right now Check in on dbig here to finish up. There's uh, 360 And now we have not 370 375. There's a 30 000 share order on the ask So, you know, there's a bunch of bigger orders that are out there for this stock folks It's on a really nice tear for right now. So, you know, I feel pretty confident in continuation But I would anticipate for there to be a bit of turbulence right around that 375 price Uh, last one, I think we are going to check back in on the kbh stock, right? For anyone of us joining on facebook live or youtube today if there's anything that you folks see Just type in the chat board. Just let me know Put this on our watch list. I feel I feel like at this point You know a decent list here for right now. Yeah, two four six eight 10 stocks to work with Like to snap at the low today or snapchat call out in a while Wow, yeah, it's starting to fall back more than our price range about time The stock ends up taking off going back into the last year, right here and a half So it fell out of our price range dropped off off of earnings going back into, you know mid-october early november time and then it's been on a just a straight Dart sense on the way down. Uh, yeah, this looks good. Actually. I'm going to slip this on our list here. Mike good call All right, so I don't like adding too many stocks to a watch list folks I'm sure that there could be one more as well. I could add but I'll tell you this is as good as we can get folks Uh norman with the apron trade aprons already on there.

Take care


Welcome to Think Tech on OC16, Hawaii's weekly newscast on things that matter to tech and to Hawaii. I'm Jay Fiedel. And I'm Raya Salter. This will be a special show on Valentine's Day, Love in Hawaii. On Valentine's Day, everyone thinks about love and romance, don't they? This week, we're taking a look at what it's like to be single, or maybe not, and looking for love here in Hawaii. And that means straight talk about dating. What are we supposed to do on Valentine's Day? What is it like to date online? Where can you turn to for help on meeting that special someone? This Valentine's Day, we're peeling back the onion on love. We spoke to singles to explore the ins and outs of the dating scene. We will also share the interviews we had with a certified love coach and, yes, a Honolulu matchmaker. In addition, we'll share stories from our Think Tech on the Street coverage on what people are planning for Valentine's Day. But before we get to that, let's talk about the holiday itself. Actually it had some really unsexy origins. It turns out that the story of Valentine's Day starts with the Roman Catholic Church in the 5th century. The church sainted two Valentines, both men, who were put lovingly to death by the Roman emperor Claudius II. And that's when the story returns to ancient Rome and gets kind of brutal. A modern Valentine's Day may have origins in the Roman Feast of Lupricalia, held in February, where there were animal sacrifices along with unrestrained drinking and violent fertility rights too. After a fairly unromantic origin, the centuries and the dark ages went by without a whole lot of love. And Valentine's Day did not turn into a love-related holiday until Chaucer and Shakespeare started to romanticize it in their writings. Good for them. With all of that, it became a day of exchanging longing love notes and making dramatic gestures and evolved inevitably into the holiday we know today. Today, Valentine's Day is celebrated in different ways around the world. In Japan on Valentine's Day, it's customary for women to be the gift-givers. The most popular gift is chocolate. Please keep that in mind. In South Korea, on February 14th, Love Day, women also give gifts of chocolate to men to whom they are attracted. But that's not all. White Day is celebrated on March 14th. And a third day, Black Day, which falls on April 14th, is dedicated to the wallflowers who have been left out of both Love Day and White Day. That's not one Valentine's Day, but three. They know how to live. And this takes us to Hawaii here in 2017 and the modern notion of love locally on Valentine's Day. What do people in Hawaii think about it these days? And what, in fact, do they do about it? We went to Tamron Park at Bishop Square, the center of downtown Honolulu, to find out. What was the first Valentine you ever got? Probably from my, my mom or dad. Yeah. Yeah. Like a little bit still in the Valentine's, I guess. Yeah. That's the best time, I think. They give you a little candy and they're like, we love you.  That is totally legit. How about you? I think my one's like a kindergarten. You know how you get those candy with a little no with like a secret admirer or something. So have either of you had a secret admirer, even from school, get one of those Valentine's where they say secret admirer? Oh, not since high school. Well, no, tell us about the high school one. Tell us about the high school one. That's good enough. In high school, I was in a high school musical play. And so we were doing it at the All Boys School here at St. Louis.  And so the boys would leave us a little Valentine's gift from a secret admirer. So that was probably my only secret admirer experience. Did you ever figure out who it was it gave it to you? I did. So I was Gabriela in the musical and it was Troy. Okay. I, that's actually sweet, almost a little too sweet, but that's sweet. And how about you? I think I did in kindergarten, but I can't remember his name. All right. Can I remember what was the situation? Did you maybe get like, was it something in your locker or how did that work? Like the candy with the little no in my desk or something, but nothing, nothing as special as Gabriela over here. Why don't you tell us who did you give your first Valentine to? It was an ex-boyfriend of mine from 22 years ago. And we are actually still very, very good friends to this day. Who doesn't have memories of their first love? Their first Valentine.  A kind of goldfish bowl where there are no secrets here, more than in other places, old flames may be a problem for new ones. For insight into this issue and for tips on finding your true love in our islands, we spoke to Ami Allen of Matchmaking Hawaii. Because we are in a much more smaller area geographically, the six degrees of separation is probably more like two. And because people are very keen to see if whether we have somebody in common. But when they do, because they mostly do, you know, you talk to somebody long enough, you're going to have a couple of people in common. And that's just the way things are here.  And then people start thinking, okay, well, that's a little too close. I can't date her and break up with her. And then what's going to happen to my relationship with Steve? And, you know, there's a lot of repercussions because there's that closeness. And because you have, you know, a lot of, you know, you have people in common. Also, you know, because it is a small area where people meet new people is not always, you know, it's very difficult to meet new people. But you meet people through work or at work. You probably, most people don't really want to go there and make that into a romantic relationship. Because what if, you know, you have a bad breakup, you can't really change jobs. What's somebody to do? Like, so let's take that first instance where, you know, it's the reality. And people, you know, know each other.  So I mean, it's what is one, what is one to do? Is it something that, you know, how does one sort of get beyond that? Is it mental? Is it, is it become, is it a fear that's justified? Is it, or is it, you know, how does one's proceed? I think you, you know, when people are looking for love, there's a kind of, there's a couple of things that's very important. First of all, you have to be open-minded.  Because if you really think about it and use your instinct, you know whether it's okay or not.  No, go with the gut feeling and be open about it and stay positive. And I think those are really important things when, you know, you want things to, to work out. What are some of the, say, the top three mistakes that people make when they're looking for love? I think when you're looking for love, it's probably better that you're not under the influence of alcohol. You want to have a clear mind to really see whether that chemistry is there. And I think that's one mistake that a lot of people do, just looking in the wrong place. You know, places where alcohol is involved is not conducive to that. You know, actually, that's very interesting because sometimes I think the first thing people want to do is grab a drink. Hey, let's, Pau Hanna, can we get a drink? And it helps sort of take some of the, maybe the nervousness and the anxiety away. What are, what are some things, you know, if someone is going to avoid alcohol, what are some things they can do? Actually, they could go to a bar and just order soda. Sure, you know, so you could still, or maybe choose like a non-bar type of environment. And I think, you know, of course, bars have a nice setting. It's very romantic. There's no reason to have more than one drink.  And like you said, you can order something else.  It's just being under the influence is just not conducive to having that clarity. What would be your advice for singles on Valentine's Day? You know, to be honest, it's just another holiday. A matchmaker here in Hawaii in the 21st century, hearkening back perhaps to the age-old matchmakers of the 19th century and before. There was a movie by that name in the 1950s with Shirley Booth. And everyone remembers matchmaker, matchmaker from Fiddler on the Roof. Just as the matchmakers of the past, a me the matchmaker puts people together by fomenting contact between her clients. How would you like to be a fly on the wall of her office? I admire her because she's in a position to give people a beautiful and hopefully a lifelong gift. But what about the more complicated side of things, Raya? What about the more transitory limerence of a powering romantic longing, which can turn an ordinary person into a lovesick puppy? Heartbreak can, well, you know, break your heart. It's the stuff of which so much great music, poetry, love stories, tragedies and sitcoms are made. Love can be all-consuming, something that sweeps you away and makes you rune-struck and hopelessly irrational. But it's not always easy or natural. They say that before you can serve Enda, before someone else can love you, you need to love yourself. With that in mind, we spoke with Shauna Campbell, a certified love coach about preparing yourself for love and learning how you can successfully manage the campaign, the chase and the experience. I love to tell people what I do because I get that, like, doggy ear, like, oh, like, love coach. And people have their own definition. They probably think I'm a matchmaker or they think I'm, you know, a dating coach and whatnot. And sure, I tell people, if you've seen the movie Hitch, I'm kind of like the female version of that in a way. Ooh. That's exciting. That's what the female will say, kind of hooking us up when we're falling down in our faces. Right. But more so my concept, I talk, is really focused on self-love. The top three issues, one, I can't find someone on my level. So whether you could be someone with a certain educational background or financial, you know, whatever things that you want in a relationship, you may not find that person that kind of, quote, unquote, on your level and kind of get, like, frustrated. So that's an issue. Some people are like, why am I still single? And then they are tempted. And sometimes they do buy into the story where there must be something wrong with me. You know, I'm a great catch. I'm a great man. I'm a great woman. Like, you know, I have things going on. I mean, why can't I find that person? And the third thing, I think most of everyone do is over-analyzing. For me, because I'm always going to go back to self, it's like how a person, if you see that's going to be a challenge, not ignoring that that could be a possible, but if you allow that to take a toll on yourself, like, oh, man, like, no one, I'm a single parent. I'm a, you know, no one is not going to want me or date me or I have to wait till my child gets older and this and that. And like, who wants to? So it's really the self-talk.   So it's not impossible is what you tell yourself. We live in beautiful Hawaii, staycation. Staycation could be in the house or visiting another neighbor in Ireland, Ireland, Ireland. Two, if you're someone who's like outdoors, you know, probably like going out for a hike and then the day having a picnic on the beach or at the park, you know, that could be someone's idea of romantic. If you're someone who have children, definitely see if you could get a babysitter and go out or do the reverse, you know, they could spend the night at a family member's house or someone that you trust and create a romantic even at home.  But the fifth, number five, I said anything that adds a special personalized touch that could be the exact, you know, whether if you have a romantic dinner, like hiking and find a spot or to like a five-star restaurant.   Who knew there was such a thing as a certified love coach? That sounds like it's out of a sitcom too. I can see it now in Seinfeld. Our ways of courtship are more subtle, more sophisticated these days and given the complexity of dating and mating in 2017, it sounds like a love coach could be very helpful. I certainly agree, Jay. Now, with the leverage of online dating apps, social media and a thousand new ways to express your sexuality, things are getting more challenging and rewarding and perhaps more risky and risque for the people involved. We spoke with some singles to find out what they do to mix and mingle in the age of the internet. What are some of the challenges, pitfalls? Come on, open up. Let's see. Well, I think since I've been here, a lot of people tend to move in and out of the islands so it's very difficult sometimes to have a relationship that's a little bit longer than just a couple of years because they tend to be more transient. Folks are coming and going and also folks like, they come maybe thinking they're gonna stay, change their mind. What do you think, Hawaii? People are looking for an experience when they come to the Hawaiian Islands. Oh, what kind of experience are we talking about?   I think people are looking for that affair that is a little bit of passion, you know. And sometimes the locals kind of serve that purpose. Interesting.  And of course, they wanna latch on to you because you know the islands. You've been here for a while and they want that experience and you're there to show them. That's so interesting. As another local, what should take on that? Well, I think when you get into a relationship, you want to, if you're actually gonna try and build something, you're gonna build a sense of permanence. And being on an island, a lot of people, myself included, don't really wanna stay here for that long. And so- I've just said myself included. Well. Okay, we break this down personally. What is going on with this?  Whereas for people who are born and raised here, it's all familiar. I mean, I step onto any chunk of sidewalk that's one square foot I've already stepped on like a dozen times in my life and each one has three different stories to it. I mean, it's limiting. And so, you can't build that much when what you have is already built. And I think, yeah, and when you make a relationship, you're staking your turf. You're putting something down to stay with. And that, you know, it's not, I think yet an island community gets in the way of that. People are less inclined, less eager to do that. That's super interesting. And I feel like there are a lot of reasons for that. One thing, what we were talking about earlier is there's this incredible lack of anonymity.  And sooner or later, you know, you may date someone and then, you know, find that your friend or someone you know has also dated that person. This is true. This is true. It's happened multiple times. And plus, you know, like, say in New York City, I could go down to Tommy Bahamas and totally scandalize myself and nobody would ever know. Here, if I were to do that, I might actually be scandalizing myself. So what are these thoughts on some of these unique, yeah. You know, coming from Atlanta, our population is like six million there. I know, right? And then you come here.  And everybody is so connected to one another. I mean, and I also work with the public. So I even find that some of the clients that I work with, no people that I know. So I mean, it's just, yeah, you have to be careful. You have to have a sense of purpose and some sense of integrity and character about yourself when you live here. That's interesting. What are your thoughts on showing? Oh, absolutely. I think that's what's tough too, especially in the workplace when people that you know, especially when you work for a bigger corporation, which I do, I work for a very prestige airline. I won't say anything else, however. No, that would have to show on big display. However. So as you can tell, it would be very challenging to meet people that don't, to your point, that are connected with other people. That aren't getting back onto the plane. Exactly. What an interesting group, Briah. And what an interesting discussion you had, so different from the way it was when I was coming of age. I ought to be young again. But given the opportunities, why aren't they all married? Maybe with the liberation and prospect of all this technology, they're having too much fun. But who knows? Maybe this year, the year of the rooster, Cupid will strike them too. Maybe so. On that note, let's go back to our think tech on the street coverage to see what the people in Tamarind Park are planning to do with their sweethearts on Valentine's Day. Do you have any special plans for your wife of 45 years on Valentine's Day? Yes, I already celebrated the 45th anniversary last week with my wife and I gave her a big gift. She loved it. Would you get it? Would you get it? Would you get it? Money. Yes. Just cash, jewelry, how did that go? Cash, cash, she liked cash, yeah. She doesn't like anything there, only cash, okay? So I give her big checks, yeah. Okay, for this Valentine's Day, we're going out for a big dinner with her, yes, and a lovely whiff. Okay, okay, so tell us about the dinner and I know you don't want to ruin the surprise, but tell us about the gift. Oh, that's a surprise also. What kind of dinner? Big dinner, what kind of dinner? We go to a luxury, a very romantic restaurant. Tell us about the first time you got a Valentine. Well, so, because I'm originally from Taiwan, Taipei, so my first Valentine was celebrated there. It was, actually it was just very simple because we're all working on exams, trying to get to the back school. So we're studying, and then all of a sudden, after all the hot works from, boom, the box of chocolate, love letter, that's it, yeah. A box of chocolate and a love letter. So interesting. Well, I guess that wraps up our think tech special on love in Hawaii. Food for thought, for the heart, and of course, for the senses. It's been our pleasure to take the lid off love and find out more about Valentine's Day this time of year. To everyone out there, whether you're married, single or other, we hope you find your heartthrob.
