In med school, I was able to study five to six hours on average, ultimately graduating with a 3.9 GPA and still found time to write for e-books, got engaged and married and so much more. And in today's episode, I'm going to show you exactly how you can do the same to become ultra productive in whatever journey you're on. Let's get into it. So productivity hack number one is to chunk your learning and reviews. A common issue that students have is when they have too many lectures, not only do they get behind in covering those lectures, but then also in the process of reviewing them. And as I know, unfortunately from personal experience, whenever you get behind not only do you have to catch up with the actual watching and the reviewing of the lecture, you somehow also have to make time for all the lectures that are coming each and every day. And so one of the best things that I did for myself in medical school is on those days where I had more than four to five lectures a day, I decided to go ahead and focus on chunking. And I would alternate with the structure where I'd go to the recordings of the first two lectures and then immediately jump in to the review method of choice. Now, if you don't have a review method that you enjoy, or if you want to learn a better one, definitely recommend checking out this episode on all the study strategies that I use to get a 3.9 GPA in that school. And then after I watched the recording and did my first set of review, then I would go back into watching the recordings of the next two lectures and then repeat of the process. And the benefit of alternating like this is that one, it's easier to focus when you're transitioning from a different task each time, but also two, if I had five lectures in a day and I didn't manage to get to the last one, well now it's not a complete failure because I've managed to at least watch and do the reviews for the first four lectures. And then I can do the watching and the review for the lecture number five on a later date compared to the alternative, which is usually you get through the five lectures of material, but you don't actually get enough quality of the review for lecture one through five, much less the first few. And so if you're in a situation where you have lots of lectures in a day and you're falling further and further behind, definitely consider trying out this alternating or chunking method. And then let me know in the comment section how it works for you. Productivity hack number two is to have purposeful calendar blocking. Now, full disclosure, I am a big visual person, thus I love using digital calendars to essentially see my entire schedule. And as I mentioned a lot in this channel, if it's not in your calendar, it's truly not planned for. And one of the biggest things that students struggle to plan for consistently is making time for themselves and often leads to lack of motivation, drive, and then ultimately procrastination. One of the biggest reasons that was so productive in both college and medical school is that things that are still important to me or always part of my schedule, but it's because I purposely put them into my calendar. And the quick and easy process that I use that you can just go ahead and start doing today is at the start of each week or start of each day is the first thing you want to ask yourself is, when do I want to start and end my day in terms of work? That way you know, okay, but 7pm, it doesn't matter if I'm behind or if I need more work to do, we're just going to call it a day. It could be 8 or 9pm. You choose the time slot, but once it's done, it's your time and responsibility to go on and take care of the other aspects of your life. Number two, and this is an efficiency trick in itself is asking yourself, where are you going to make time for yourself? So that includes time to do things that are important to you. So I just maintaining your fitness, going to the gym, interacting with people that you love, or doing hobbies that are important to you. So usually in medical school, I had an hour in the morning to get the workout that I really enjoyed and the evening I usually dedicate an hour, an hour and a half to watch a new basketball game or place a video games or watch a new show on Netflix that I really wanted to do without the guilt. And the reason that this actually improved my productivity instead of damper it is because now I knew, okay, you have two less hours in a day or you have to study, you have to be more efficient within the studying that you actually do. And then finally, step three of this quick and easy process is now you can start plugging in the different activities you'll be doing for your studying and for your score work. Now I usually recommend adding a 15 minute buffer before and after each activity, just in case something goes longer or you start to procrastinate or if you take a longer break in between, it doesn't affect the latter tasks that are coming in the day. This also leads to the benefit where you underplan and often over deliver versus alternative where you have this long to do list that you never get through. Now, before we get back into today's episode, let's take a quick second to talk about today's sponsor, which is Picmonic. Now, if you're unfamiliar with Picmonic and you're on your medical journey, they have hundreds and hundreds of videos for literally any class or material that you may need. And what makes Picmonic so unique is that in addition to having so many videos on literally any topic you need. So for example, here where in microbiology, you can click on any video. So here's Staph Aureus and the videos themselves are very short. So this video is about one minute 54 seconds, but essentially we'll break down the most high yield components that you have to know in the setting about Staph Aureus in this very nice story format using images. So here's a very nice Oreo cookie that essentially will link an image to your brain on an important concept about that. And the future videos, you may find that the same memorable images included in another related video. So then you can link together concepts. For example, here, this venom jar with green represents food poisoning. So any bacteria that may cause food poisoning may have this image in their overall picture and video. So you can say, okay, I know all different bacterias that have food poisoning. And then whenever you feel comfortable with a relatively short story, you can easily go into the review and quiz phase and actually quiz yourself on the various different high yield components. Now, in addition to having a very unique and easy way to remember information for your quizzes and tests, you can also add all of the videos you're watching into a relative playlist. So if you're studying for a microbiology class, you can go ahead and essentially click all of the videos you add and add it to those playlist. And then whenever it's time, you can come back to your individual playlist and either watch those individual videos again or ask for specific quiz questions related to the videos that you've now said that you've mastered or at least learned the first time. And that's just scratching the surface in terms of features that pick Monocas to help you on your medical journey. Other cool things include having a weakness guide so you can see which topics here are the weakest in as well as their study scheduler. So you can actually say these are the topics I need to know and here's my test day and then it will essentially will give you a study schedule based off of that. So if you're looking for an all in one resource, you're on your medical journey and you haven't quite found it, definitely recommend checking out pick Monocas if you're interested. There'll be a link down below and our friends at pick Monocas also been nice enough to include an extra 20% discount if you use the code the MD journey at checkout. And so if you're interested in learning more about pick Monocas, that link will be down below. And as always, thanks to pick Monocas for being today's sponsor productivity hack. Number three is to use a second brain method to collect all your to do items and ideas. Now, this is something that I've talked about in a few episodes in the channel. So if you guys are interested, you guys can check the past few, but essentially I always had a big issue, especially as a student where things are just coming up, small things that you have to do for academic purposes, things you have to do in your personal life, and then always losing a track of them and then realizing that your life is so overwhelming. So I just wish that there was a place that I could just store things and then how that system go ahead and essentially prioritize. Oh, like this is the most important thing you should be doing today and tomorrow and the next week. And so if you're familiar with the channel, you know what my favorite tools to do this is with the notion where I have different files and collection systems for things that I learn as a physician, things that I'm tracking in my fitness, for example, I'm about to run a half marathon. So all of the trainings and runs that I've set out for myself will be within notion, but also things like the books that I've read and different things that we do within the business. But one of the most important things that I actually have in my personal workplace is essentially having a system where I know all the activities that I have to do within the main categories of my life. So for example, academics, I may have an upcoming paper, which I actually do. So I should actually add it within my workplace, but also things like personal. My wife and I are moving to start our new job in the next two months. And so we're going to have to find a new moving company, new electric company. And just to add to the busyness and the hecticness, my wonderful wife's birthday is coming up in the next few weeks, as well as our own wedding anniversary. And so just planning things such as gifts and a trip that we're going on needs to make sure that it actually shows up in my priority list. So you guys can see the very different tasks that I have within each of my priority systems. And usually what I do is on a Sunday, I essentially say and move things to, okay, like this is the week you need to find your moving company or find Priya's gifts or go ahead and plan your vacation. And then you also need to replace your filters in your car. And then each morning I'm saying, okay, cool, what are the things from this week that I need to do today? So maybe I just need to make thumbnails for the new video because the video is going to come out in a day and a half. I need to get the moving company just done with because they're not open on the weekend and that kind of stuff in addition to using some of notions, more advanced techniques. Sometimes I just like very nice, clean and simple. And so sometimes what I'll do is I'll add all the tasks that I think of within this more complicated database that's still very simple. And then I may go ahead and add them in kind of a very simple checkbox technique. So here I have a personal list of all things that I do.  I need to make sure that I get a long run for the half marathon of the running next week and things like birthday cards and things that we talked about. And then every morning, if you guys are interested on what time I wake up and how I do my daily activities, you guys can check out the episode that I've done on my morning routine as a full-time physician. But I'll come into this list and I'll essentially put things in the order that I want to do them and then check them off as I go one by one. So this is a very nice, but simple way to say one. Let's go ahead and store all the things you have to do, even if you don't need to do them today or even by next week, you at least have them in your collection system. And then having a system where I get to come back to these things on a daily and a weekly basis, I don't forget things. For example, I had to do a TB test by the end of the month. If I didn't write it down, I'd probably forget. And so I need to make sure that it's on my list. And so when I realize that this is my deadline, I can then add it to my daily and my weekly list. And if you like this approach and or if you really like using Notion in the next few weeks, I'll be making a very step-by-step approach on how to use Notion and how to optimize Notion for the life of the students. So if you guys are interested and excited for that step-by-step video, make sure you hit that subscribe and notification bell on YouTube to be notified when that video goes live. Productivity number four, make the first task the most important. Now this is a concept that's inspired by a book that's literally called Eat the Frog first, which literally is disgusting, but also very important where there are going to be things that we do. And as students, we are great procrastinators and the longer we wait to do something, the more we have a tendency to procrastinate. So usually on that calendar or whether I'm using my Notion system or whatever it may be, the best thing that I did for myself is saying what is the most important thing that is going to move the needle for yourself on an academic, on a personal, on a fitness level. So for example, I knew that I was going to get more stronger. I was going to be mentally more sharp if I have my gym workout in the morning and much less likely to work out if I scheduled it at 5 to 6 PM. That is a personal thing. On the same basis, when I would study, I knew that the most important thing I could do for myself is to do my review method. And again, if you guys are interested, definitely check out the 3.9 GPA episode where I break down every study technique I used and which one's actually got me the most results. But once I knew the study strategy that was the most effective, it didn't make sense for me to wait later in the afternoon where I knew I'd be tired and less energized to do so. Instead, I was like, well, let's wake up and go ahead and do that first, then go do your workout. And that's essentially stacking two effective things. And now even if the rest of the day was a failure, if I didn't go to class or didn't pay attention or just didn't get any work done, my first two activities at least were really effective to move the needle forward. And thus, the day was at least a minimum of a win. And I use the same approach as a full-time position. I know when I have to get to the hospital, my main focus has to be 100% on taking care of my patients. But I also want to make sure that I'm growing the empty journey and providing you guys helpful content. So usually when I wake up, the most important thing I can do is to come up with new ideas and come up with new YouTube scripts and things like this. And so when it's time and I have more free time, I can just jump in to actually doing the recording instead of coming up with ideas later on. Now, another great way to boost your productivity is to find a study system that is super simple yet super effective. And if you haven't found that yet, you can check out this episode right here on how to use Anki like a pro. It's my favorite technique, as well as all the techniques that I use to get a 3.9 GPA in medical school. You guys can check that out here. But as always, my friends, thanks for being a part of my journey. Hopefully I was just a little help to you guys on yours. And I'll see you guys in the next one. Peace.

As you sit, sipping your morning cup, or two, of coffee, here's something to consider. The amount of coffee you drink each day may be encoded in your DNA. Given its popularity and complex chemistry, the health benefits of coffee have long been studied. These include protection against diabetes, Alzheimer's disease, and even some types of cancer. Despite all of these benefits, however, the one coffee drinkers are most often after the pick-me-up from caffeine. And that craving for caffeine, it turns out, may be driven by genetics. To further unravel this relationship, a European research team looked closely at the coffee-drinking habits of two study populations in Italy and one in the Netherlands. The researchers recorded how many cups each of the almost 3,000 people surveyed consumed per day. Using genomic techniques and statistical analyses, they looked for associations between the amount of coffee consumed and the presence of certain genetic variants. One association stuck out. Coffee consumption appeared to be strongly correlated with the expression of the PDSS2 gene, a known player in caffeine metabolism. This link provides clues to why some people drink more coffee than others, and points specifically to how individuals break down caffeine. A cascade of chemical reactions occurs as the liver attempts to metabolize these energy-boosting molecules, a process which appears to be regulated by the PDSS2 gene. When the gene is expressed at low levels, caffeine is removed from the bloodstream and broken down quickly, resulting in intensified cravings and tempting some to reach for another cup. While these findings provide a genetic link to coffee consumption, they may have broader implications as well. Because many genes responsible for metabolizing caffeine also play a role in breaking down medicines, this could be a first step to understanding why people react differently to certain medications. It also sheds light on why we experience cravings and may provide insights into the genetics behind habit formation.

A search and rescue team had to come to the aid of a 30-year-old hiker wearing only shorts and a tank top, by the way, who got stuck in heavy snow on Mount Elden during his quest for free pizza. The unidentified hiker had been racing to the mountain peak to win a free pizza from the local pizzeria, Pizzacletta, but he was apparently unaware of heavy snow conditions and called for help around 9am. He was found shivering heavily and probably at mild stages of hypothermia. Free pizza. Free pizza, by the way, that's not free if it comes with medical bills to treat your hypothermia.

It may be the greatest marriage proposal surprise of all time. In Australia, a man identified only as Terry had given his girlfriend Anna a necklace on their one-year dating anniversary. Using Juan Pine, a wood that's native to Tasmania, he carved the necklace himself and she wore it almost every day for the next year. What she didn't know was that inside the necklace, he had hidden an engagement ring. Terry says it was literally under her nose. Okay, so flash forward to November 2016 when the couple took a trip to Smoon Cave in Scotland, a place they had talked about visiting since they first met. Well, on location, Terry asked for the necklace so he could take a photo of it. Well, secretly, he broke the seal that she didn't know was there with a knife and with his camera rolling, got down on one knee, pulled the necklace out of his pocket, cracked it open and popped the question. After initial shock and confusion, Anna finally worked out what had happened and yelled, Yes! Terry says she then kind of flipped out, saying, It's been in there the entire time?

it is a brilliant time to be alive really the and it has been for a while now right we're going through some huge growing pains huge huge huge growing pains as a species really as a civilization as societies as individuals and there are some people that are faring much better than others so those who aren't faring well they should be looking at others to see why it is that they are faring well not in just terms of finance but mentally emotionally right if you know people who are totally freaking out because they can't go out and they've lost this you know their social ability right to interact with people on a daily basis for sure that is their life that has been turned upside down but everybody should be ready for storms coming in and realize that as a storm how to bunker down how to survive how to last through the storm and to if their surroundings are being destroyed to rise up again and build something that is anti-fragile right not build back better in terms of what world economic form is saying because what they are doing really is destroying huge sectors of the economy that that they do not control right and then they're going to they want to build on the ashes of independent sectors decentralized sectors of society to centralize everything right so there's a serious struggle going on right now serious i think they're going to fail personally and this is personal finance related right so if you're putting your money in the right place if you're investing in the right place and you're you're offering an alternative to these psychopaths that want to control everything about humanity my money was a betting person and i am my money would be on the individuals on the decentralized people because they are more they can adapt faster right these people everything has to work out perfectly for them to be able to get to where they want to go i'm betting it's not going to happen right

So this is the demonstration of the posterior chest wall. This is the prone cadaver So this is the left side of the chest wall and we are demonstrating this from the left side of the cadaver. In order to demonstrate the chest wall posteriorly, we have to reflect the following structures. First, we reflected this muscle here. This is the erythrospinate. Part of the erythrospinate, which is known as the Iliocostalis. This is the posterior layer of the thoracolumbar fascia that we have reflected. And this is the other part of the Iliocostalis. The next muscle that we have reflected is this one. This is the longasmus. So now we have reflected the longasmus also. And the third muscle that we had to reflect was this one. This is the spinalis. So we reflected these three muscles of the erythrospinate and this is the remnant of the latsomus dorsi. Which also we have reflected. Superiorly, we had to retract the scapula with its attached muscles and we can see the remnant of the latsomus dorsi here also. Immediately, we reflected the trapezius muscle and we can see the trapezius muscle here. Having reflected these muscles, we see the space here. These are the transversal spinalis muscles, which are located deep to the erythrospinate muscles. And this muscle that we see in front of us, this is the semi-spinalis and deep to that will be the multifidus and the rotators. These transversal spinalis muscles, as the term implies, they are located between the spinalis process, which is here and the transversal process of the vertebrae, which are here. That's why they are called transversal spinalis muscles. They are the deep, intrinsic, minor group of muscles at the back. Extending from the transversal process to the rib, we have these ligaments. These are known as the lateral costotransversal ligament. This is one lateral costotransversal ligament here. This is another lateral costotransversal ligament. Let me first mention accessory muscles of respiration that we can see here. We can see this muscle here, with the shiny, aponeurotic expansion fibers here. This is the serratus posterior superior. And we can see that the fibers as they go down, laterally they become more flesh. Then we have another set of fibers, which are very similar in appearance. We can see that these fibers are very shiny, aponeurotic, and further, actually, they are more fleshy. This is the serratus posterior inferior. The serratus posterior superior is responsible for elevation of the ribs, and the serratus posterior inferior is responsible for depression of the ribs. Both of them have proprioceptive function. The serratus posterior inferior was located under the latsomus dorsi muscle, which we can see here. The serratus posterior superior is located under the rhomboids and the libators. And we can see the revenant of the rhomboids major here, and the rhomboids minor higher up. Now let me point out another accessory muscle of respiration that we can see here. If we look closely, we can see these muscle fibers coming down from the transverse process above to the rib below. Next, from the transverse process above to the rib below. From the transverse process above to the rib below. These are the libatoris costorum. They go obliquely down, and therefore we have already guessed it. Their action is to elevate the ribs. Now if you look very closely, we can see a small triangular space. Bounded by the libatoris costorum, the inter-transverse ligament and the lateral costotransverse ligament. In between this triangular space, we have a neurovascular structure coming out. And that is the torso ramai of the spinal nerve which supplies the muscles of the back. And we can see we have picked up one of those. And we can pick up another one here also. These are the torso ramai of the spinal nerves which come out through this triangular space. Bounded by the libatoris costorum, the inter-transverse ligament and the lateral costotransverse ligament. Thank you very much for watching. Dr. Sanjay Sanyal signing out. If you have any questions or comments, please put them in the comment section below. Have a nice day.

Magnesium-based hydride alloys have the potential to be used as a viable alternative to traditional hydrogen storage materials due to their high hydrogen storage capacity, abundance, and low cost. However, slow kinetics and stable thermodynamics limit their practical applications. In contrast to the significant progress made in enhancing the hydrogenation slash dehydrogenation kinetics, thermodynamic tuning remains a major challenge for MG-based alloys. Current strategies for achieving thermodynamic tuning include alloying, nanostructuring, and changing the reaction pathway. While these methods have resulted in some success, they are not yet sufficient for practical application. This review paper discusses the advantages and drawbacks of each approach, and suggests that finding reversible systems with high hydrogen capacity and effectively tailored reaction enthalpies could lead to more effective thermodynamic tuning of MG-based hydrogen storage alloys.

Good evening, everyone. I'm so glad that you're able to attend our site supervisor panel presentation this evening. During this first session of the evening, we have representatives from five internship sites. And those of you who can see the screen, you'll see on the screen, we have someone from Novo Nordisk, Santa Clara County Library District, Trinity School, Santa Mateo County Library, and Hope International University. My picture is down below there, Dr. Pat Franks. And Melissa LaFranchise, the person to whom the credit goes for setting up this entire panel presentation, is the student research assistant. You'll see her picture there on the right. Right now, we're going to turn to our very first presenter, Rochelle, who is going to speak to you about the internship opportunities she has available. Rochelle, go ahead. Okay, thank you, Dr. Franks. My name is Rochelle Stern, and I'm an information professional with Novo Nordisk Incorporated. It's a pharmaceutical company, and it's global-wide. My office is in Princeton, New Jersey, and that is in the central New Jersey area. The company itself is headquartered in Denmark. And I think that we were on the slide where we have a photo. Am I right? Yes, of the team. Okay, thank you. Yes, so as you can see the photo here, we have about 40 librarians pictured here. And that's not all the librarians from the U.S. I can say that we are indeed a global company because these are all the librarians from the U.S. affiliate, China, and Denmark. And every year we get together and we talk about our work, and we work with each other every day. So it is indeed a truly global company. The company itself, it has a whole portfolio of insulins, and so it's sort of built as a diabetes company, but we also promote hemostasis products and growth hormone products. So the information professional job is actually getting into things like big data and analysis where we are looking to support business decisions. So that's sort of where I think corporate librarianship is going. So we are working really hard to meet up with those needs. So we can go to the next slide. This is just some internship information for you. So some of the duties of the intern would be literature searching, article retrieval, news alerts, and that's of course in the medical area. So it's searching. It's looking through databases like Medline, M-Base, Biosys, current contents, and so on. Also, the intern would assist with literature analysis and text data mining and also with training internal colleagues to use our information resources. And then at the end of the internship, we usually have the intern present a special project to our staff. So it's something that maybe we might not know or something that you might present in a new drug class or it could be, you know, just something that you're interested in. And some of the benefits I listed include that it's paid. It's a paid internship. It's an opportunity for professional experience and for us, it bridges us to the community. And we also find that we love interns because we get to learn the most current technologies. So I do have to also say that it is not, it's not an online off-site type of job. It is on-site in Princeton, New Jersey. So that leads us to the next slide. So what do you need? What would you need to qualify as an intern? Well, an interest in the medical pharmaceutical area. And we found that when past interns use the internship in their portfolio, they went on successfully to go on to other companies. I believe that all of our interns in the past have been very successful in their career. And then the last slide is my contact information. And again, one of the qualifications would be that you'd be either in the Central New Jersey area or able to relocate for about three months. So thank you and that's the end of my presentation. Thank you, Rochelle. I hope I get to hear. Yes, you'll get to hear other presentations. And thank you. That was very interesting. I live in New York and have been through the Princeton, New Jersey area many times. It's a beautiful place. So if any of you are interested in visiting this internship, it would be a perfect opportunity. And now we'll move on to our next presenter, Megan Wong from the Santa Clara County Library District. And Megan, you have the ability to move the slides and you can take the mic right now and get started. Great. Thank you. Okay. So I'm Megan Wong. I'm the virtual library manager for Santa Clara County Library District. And a little about our library. We are headquartered here in Lovely Campbell, California. We have seven libraries and one branch, Woodland Branch Library. We have a total of circulation of 9,833,000 materials. We answered 352,541 reference questions a year. And we have a population of 410,000 and 205,000 card holders and 1,900 items in our collection. Okay. So a little bit about the internship. We are looking for a social media intern. It's a virtual internship. It's unpaid. We're pretty flexible with the hours. And the number of credits is totally up to you. So what you'll be doing is managing our content for Twitter, Instagram, Facebook. You'll also be doing things like helping us develop a six month social media plan and helping us explore ways to increase users and followers and help us develop a deeper, more meaningful connection to our social media community. Another thing that you'll be helping us do is develop workflow processes for our social media administrators. So what are you going to walk away with? Experience managing our social media content. You'll be helping us develop workflows. You'll be getting mentoring from me, the virtual library manager. And really a great understanding of public libraries, social media procedures and policies. And I think the best thing that you'll walk away with is the ability to innovate and to test your ideas. So how you'll be helping us? You'll be helping us by staying, helping us stay current and relevant. By helping us develop that six month plan I talked about earlier. You'll also be helping us increase our social media followers and helping us manage our content. So our ideal candidate is going to be just a real self-starter, no one to ask questions, no one to think big. And also we do ask that you have a mobile device because you'll be managing our content for some of those social media outlets like Twitter and Instagram that require instant responses. And then knowledge just of social media common practices. Our past candidates have been just really innovative and risk takers and just very eager to jump on board. So that's about all that I have. You can contact me via email, you can reach out to me on Twitter, you can email your resume to me or if you have a CV that's fine too. But again just make sure that you are familiar with common practices for Twitter, Facebook, Instagram, Pinterest and YouTube. And that's all I have. Thank you. Thank you very much with Megan. So if you're interested in this position it would be wise to become familiar with all of the social media that's listed before you apply and have an interview. And this is the second presenter that mentioned that our students are helping them keep current with the latest technologies. And I was also pleased to hear not only the use of social media but actually working on a plan which is really important. So another wonderful opportunity for someone and this one was a virtual one. And now we'll move over to Becky Zarend from Trinity School. And Becky you also have the ability to move your slides if you'd like. And you can take the mic right now. Okay, thank you very much. I'm Becky, the librarian at Trinity School. This is my 28th year in the school, my 20th year in the library for both program and space which I helped design and build. Trinity is just the opposite of what you've heard in the last presentation. We're a very small, a physical day school in the San Francisco Bay Area, halfway between San Francisco and San Jose. 165 students who thrive on a very broad curriculum with a clear eye on basic skills but enhanced by lots of hands-on knowledge and critical thinking. Oh, thank you. I forgot to click on the arrow. Well, there we go. I'll get the next ones after this. Thank you. And language arts, math, social studies, science, gardening, library, Spanish, music, art, physical education and religious studies. And interestingly enough, in the library, I touch on all of these subject categories in different ways throughout the week. The library program fosters a lot of reading and probably the strength of the program. For a small school, we still have 16,000 items in an online catalog which shows a commitment to a wide variety of resources for all interests, including our international community and for all reading levels. The collection is equally divided between fiction and nonfiction. Although the library shelves contain some of the most beloved, beloved classics, we are known in the community for a very strong collection of recently published books. Teachers and students have a say in what books they would like to see in our library. Students write me notes, they stop me on the sidewalk and speak to me personally about what is missing. The library also provides an art cart with supplies, Lego bins, origami paper which provide additional outlets for students. But it also includes display spaces where we mix books and material culture and projects of students have created on their own. I'm also looking forward in January to expanding the art cart into a maker's space. That's a project in transition right now. Information literacy is guided by the American Association of School Library Standards. It's part of our curriculum at every grade level, fully integrated by the teachers and I work with them closely. We're guided by Trinity School Standards based on the national standards and the common core standards. In addition, all teachers including myself are responsible for curriculum maps and daily blogs. As a librarian, I'm a very active member in the school at all grade levels. I serve on the Diversity Committee, Curriculum Committee and Technology Committees and this year we are also working and preparing for our 2014 reaccreditation with California Association of Independent Schools. The library space is a learner's space. It's open from 7.30 to 6.00 p.m. daily. It's sometimes quiet, sometimes very noisy. But always available. Parent support for the library space and the library program has created a shared ownership of the Tang Library. It's probably one of the strengths of my program. The parents, grandparents, au pairs, friends assist in the JK through grade three classes. They organize and present the book fair. They support author and guest presentations and they also facilitate family literacy nights. In the spring of 2013 Trinity School Library had its first library intern. Thus, obviously it was so successful that I was thrilled to have an opportunity to present our case and perhaps have another intern. Heather was invited to organize as her internship what she would like to do, taking advantage of her strengths and making space for new opportunities for her perceived weaknesses. Together we created a list of goals and near the end we created a list of the many things she had learned as well as her accomplishments. And I also then created my own list of new and updated skills that I learned from her. Our partnership librarian and intern brought renewed energy to Trinity School's library program and it was noticeable also by the teachers, some of whom are fairly new here and some who have been here for 15 or 20 years. It also demonstrated for both of us the importance of in the library of a subtle program marketing, personal flexibility, shared community investment in the library program and space. I forgot to click on the third side. So this is just a summary of what I said. We are a one-to-one iPad school, grades two through five, technology is everywhere. All teachers, all staff have both iPads and laptops and have run a third round of laptops. So we're very techy oriented in all facets. We have smart boards and Apple TV and all our classrooms and yet it's used as a tool. We don't, we still read books here. So this is the last slide and this is really showing some of the engagement of our students in our library. The students at Trinity School have many opportunities for leadership, public speaking, actually which I do a fair amount of the public speaking teaching indirectly and service learning projects. These opportunities nurture character development, compassion and social responsibility. Students love to come to school every day at Trinity. They love to come to the library and they love to help. Curious about the school library and how it has vested itself in the school community? Please contact me. The contact information is on both the first and last slide and I would be glad to have you schedule a visit or apply for an internship. Thank you very much. Thank you Becky. What a wonderful community you've developed at Trinity. That is just such a wonderful opportunity for someone who's interested in youth librarianship and in addition we have core competencies our students must meet and being able to develop educational programs is among them. So this would be a wonderful opportunity for anyone wanting to learn more about computer literacy reaching out to young people. Another wonderful opportunity and next we'll move on to San Mateo County Library. We have two presenters here but I believe we have one with us this evening, Nicole Pisani. So Nicole, I believe you can move your own slides and I'm going to turn the mic over to you right now and let you describe your internship opportunity. Hi, yes. I'm Nicole Pisani. I'm with San Mateo County Library and I manage the libraries in Wood tonight and Portola Valley but we have 12 branches and a bookmobile throughout San Mateo County. San Mateo County is a really diverse county. We have communities that are extremely economically wealthy and extremely economically disadvantaged. We have rural communities and urban communities. We really run the gamut and I want to talk to you about internships that we have at multiple sites including my own. I also just really want to stress that San Mateo County Library is I think a very innovative organization and we really try to support our interns in providing unique and exciting services to our communities and I always try to work with interns to, you know, allow them to be as creative as possible. So here are the internships that our library system has opened this year. Our literacy interns work with our project READ which provides one-on-one tutoring to adults. We are working right now also on a major website refresh project. So we are looking for a website intern to assist with that. That is a internship that could be virtual as well as in person. We're also looking for a digitization intern to catalog, scan, photograph and reframe a collection of historic WPA art. So that's an exciting opportunity to work with some historic pieces. We also have at our Hapun Bay branch an outreach services internship opportunity. Hapun Bay is on the coast obviously and they have a really robust outreach services program and are looking for an intern to assist with that. At the, I believe it's at the Averton library, they're looking for a volunteer coordinator to help assist with managing volunteers at that branch. We also have youth services focused internships at a couple of our branches. Basically focusing on planning and providing programming for children and, you know, supporting summer reading and doing short time and things of that nature. And we have six public intern, public services internships at libraries throughout the county, including my own Portable Valley website where interns basically would be able to do just about everything that is entailed in working in a public library. So everything from reading to reference desk customer service work to planning and leading programming, there's just a really opportunity for a lot of different kinds of work at our different branches. And I think a big opportunity to sort of create your own experience as well. We really like to see interns, you know, kind of run with it and take things in the direction that is of most interest to them. So for our different internships, we have different qualifications. Our literacy interns need to have reliable transportation to meet with their students. Empathy, flexibility, and patience and the ability to work with adult learners is definitely helpful. Our digitization intern needs strong computer skills and experience with Drupal and HTML is desired but not totally required. For our outreach services intern, we would love to have someone with Spanish language skills if possible. And for all of our public services internships, I think we're looking for people that are, you know, excited about working with the public, who love working with people who have energy and enthusiasm for this kind of work. So this gives you kind of a rundown of the qualifications. You can see more qualifications in detail in the listings on this list internship database. And here's my contact information and our deputy director Michael Lambert will be happy to receive your resume and cover letter and references if you'd like to apply for any of our internships. Again, you know, we're really looking for folks who are self-starters and excited about designing their own experience. And I'm happy to take any questions at the end. Thanks. Thank you very much, Nicole. And I believe then that you have both onsite and virtual internship opportunities. Yes, that's correct. The digitization internship can be in person and virtual and the website intern can be virtual but the rest are in person. Thank you. Very interesting. What a wealth of information you provided and so many opportunities for our students. I do hope they take advantage of it. And now I'm going to move along to our last presenter for this panel, Robin Hartman from Home Hope International University. And Robin, again, I believe you can move your slides if you have a problem, let us know. But right now I'll turn the mic over to you. All right, thank you very much. This has been great to go last because I've learned so much from these other internship opportunities. And I just want to mention that even though I was fully employed as a librarian when I was going through the library science program myself, I took advantage of doing an internship at a very different kind of library which was very useful to me to get an idea of what things are done, how things are done other places. So just really, I think an internship is a wonderful thing. I'm trying to move my slide around but it's not moving. Let's try it again. There we go. This is the Hugh and Hazel Darling Library and this is our staff minus our student workforce. Hope International University is a small private university located across the streets of Cal State Fullerton. We started as Pacific Bible Seminary in 1928 in Los Angeles and moved to Fullerton in 1974. Our curricular strengths in both graduate and undergraduate levels are in ministry and biblical studies, education, psychology and counseling, and business and management. We have about 200 students, no, 2,000 students with room for 500 in our dorms on campus. And about 50% of our students are online only. Still not going when I want to, there we go. So in the, we've had many San Jose State University MLIS interns work with us on a number of projects over the years. And although they have focused on completing a finite project, the experience of working in a small library provides an opportunity to see how everything works together and affects every other area. It's like a microcosm of a larger system. And seeing how things, changing things on the technical side affect the public services is apparent immediately, and making changes and undoing them can happen very quickly in this kind of environment. So it's kind of exciting. Why am I not moving? There we go. So currently, we are transferring our digital archives to Content DM. We have chapel messages, sermon manuscripts, and a small collection of photos on the digital archives. And you can see that by going to our library site, library.hiu.edu, and click on the find items tab and then click on digital archives, and that'll show you the old interface. But if you want to see what we're doing, moving it to Content DM, you can go to the same site, library.hiu.edu, and find items. But click on the chapel messages, and right now, that's the only link that goes directly to the Content DM site, but like I said, we're in the middle of transition. And you can see all these collections on Content DM there. But next, we're planning to digitize the university's yearbooks. Our 100th anniversary as an institution will be upon us before we know it, and it will take time to prepare for this celebration. So when you think that one thing we can start now is to digitize our yearbooks. And it has been on our to-do list, but our staff has spread pretty thin, so we prioritize things that will make an impact today. So we have already digitized the first eight or nine years. You can see that on the Content DM site. And because they were thin paperbacks that were easy to lay on a flatbed scanner, and the rest of the yearbooks are hardbound between 100 and 150 pages each, and they will take some creativity since we don't have a sophisticated digital imaging equipment. So this will be an exercise in resourcefulness. These have extra copies of almost all of these yearbooks, and we'll probably destroy them in the process. And we have some ideas, but we think that an innovative intern can really help us with some informing our project. So what we want is that this internship is partially archival in nature, but I'm not listing it that way since we are not heavily concerned with the physical care of fragile materials. And the project is not to complete the digitization of our yearbooks from the past 60 years. Instead, we need someone to, with the time and skills, to set up an ongoing project. We want to be able to recruit and empower volunteers to make meaningful contributions toward the product, and so they'll need standards, protocols, and procedures. And at the end of the internship, I hope to have a manual with some examples and standard operating procedures, as well as recommendations for going forward. And this might include efficient workflow ideas, quality control, cost analysis, resource sharing, training, staffing, et cetera. I want something that our staff can use to hand over to volunteers with minimal supervision. So to apply for this internship, send an email expressing your interest in the internship to me, and let me know if you're interested in doing the internship for credit or not. I can do it either way, so I've had both kinds. Attach a cover letter in PDF format, and help me to get to know you and give me an idea of your expectations for this internship. Describe the reasons for your interest in the project, such as, will you, what do you hope to gain from this experience? Do you want to know more about some aspect of digitization? Do you want to hone your project management skills? Do you want to gain familiarity with academic archives? You can help you with any of those things, focus in those areas, or something else. And then what do you bring to the project? What kind of skills, what is your work ethic, creativity, and optionally provide any links to relevant work you've already done? Your availability, I need to know how many hours a week you're talking about, interested in doing, and starting when, and what scheduled restrictions you might have. And attach your resume also, again, in PDF format. This is primarily an on-site internship because your books are physically here. And, but some work can probably be done remotely. So, if you have any other questions, any questions, let me know. And thank you very much for your time. Thank you, Rob. And there was another very interesting internship opportunity. We have students in the Master of Archives Records Administration degree program, as well as in the MLIS program with the concentration in archives and records that would probably love to be involved in some type of digitization project. And the ability to get some experience with content DM is very valuable. I see that quite often on job listings. So, another very valuable opportunity. I'm going to turn right now to the last page where we are now open for student questions. And those of you who want to ask a question, you see the names of the individuals on the screen in front of you and the school they're from or the place of business. And if you have a question, you can raise your hand by clicking on the hand icon. And then I'll give you the mic or else you can type a question in the chat area and we'll read it for you and you'll be able to get an answer. So, any questions? Michelle, I think you're still on title conferences. The question is down in the chat for you. Yes, I'm still here. Michelle, I'll read it for you. Yes, I'll read it for you. I'm sorry. Miles, go ahead. You read it. Thank you. Okay. When is the annual meeting of international librarians with the intern get to participate? Can you repeat the question again? Sure. When is the annual meeting of international librarians and would the intern get to participate? Oh, okay. International. Well, we have, we do, we have membership to the Special Libraries Association and that is a national annual meeting. We do have though, I don't believe that the interns would participate in the SLA annual meeting, although you can apply for a scholarship, travel scholarship to go, so you are welcome to do that. There's also, there are, there is a local SLA association that a student could be involved with and I know that they have them all over the nation, but there is one in the local area in Princeton. Now, I'm not really familiar with an international type of professional. So, wish that I, I was asking, I apologize for the confusion. You had mentioned that you're, the group of librarians at Novo Nordisk is an international group and that you guys get together every year. Oh, yeah. That's a very good question. I understand it. Okay. It's good because we're doing like a reference interview. The student would not be able to participate in the physical trip, but definitely with working with the international colleagues via IM Tech, then email, and we all work on the same help desk system as well. So, yes, the student would at least get to work with our, our Denmark counterpart. Great. Thank you. Thank you. Thanks for the question. Thank you for clarifying. Do we have any other questions? Yeah. I have another question for Nicole. You mentioned the website refresh. And can you, are you guys using Drupal? Can you describe the needs a little bit more for that one, just for students who are interested? Sure. Thanks. Drupal, experience using Drupal is desired, but not required. If you didn't know Drupal, it would be really helpful to know HTML fairly well. I think the site supervisor would want someone who could get up to speed using Drupal fairly quickly. So, if you feel like you don't know Drupal, but you're very interested in learning it, it could be a good opportunity for sure. I think they would want someone who could be a good self-starter in that area and, you know, brings work on getting up to speed on Drupal. So, I think there's some flexibility there. Thank you. I'm glad we brought up the Special Libraries Association anyway. It is in Vancouver next June, the 8th and the 10th, and there's a link to it. But that brings up the importance of belonging to professional organizations. Does anybody belong to any other organization that you would recommend to the students? Yes. The ACRL and the ALA, two very important ones for academic libraries. I might add that, yeah, and as I had said, this is Becky. There is a group called Bay Area Independent School Librarians that meets three or four times a year that has over 100, I mean, 150 members. It varies a little bit from year to year. It's very local, but is rich with background information and librarians from other walks of life besides independent schools often join us and share in some of the presentations. It's called Bazel. Sometimes I find that the local associations provide opportunities that you can't really receive by attending a national or an international conference. So, they're very important, but somebody mentioned international before and there is an international conference, IFLA, that people from San Jose attend each year. It's usually in other countries. I forgot where it was this past year, I think in France, but it's a good way to network as well. So, if you just do a search on professional associations for librarians or associated information careers, I think you'll come up with a number. ALA is an important one, at least. I believe some of us are attending in January over the break. Do we have any other questions for our presenters? This one is for Megan. Megan, can you read that from the chat area and respond? Yeah, I can read that. So, there would not be a standard set of hours really. I mean, obviously, if a question comes in at two in the morning, you're not expected to answer it, but we do for Twitter and Instagram ask that our social media intern try to stay within, you know, like a 24-hour time frame to respond to queries. Any other questions? All right, then what I'd like to do is thank our presenters for sharing their time and their expertise with us this evening. And I hope that you will all consider applying for one of these wonderful internship experiences. Thank you, everyone, and that will be it for this evening for this panel. If you intend to stay for the second panel, you could just click on the away button and come back at about 10 after 7. We'll be starting again at 7.15. Thank you.


Fellow St. Lucien's, to have been appointed chair of the Independence Planning Committee 2021 has been an honour and my pleasure. The coronavirus may rage war against our small nation, but as a people of love and resilience, we persevere. We can and will win this war. This year, the resilience of our nation was discussed and debated, highlighted and promoted in song, dance and visible displays of that patriotism that resides in us, that love for our simply beautiful St. Lucia. We are a nation replete with talent and it is our joy as a committee to bring to you each year the new, the upcoming and the best of our nation. I now take the opportunity to thank and congratulate the team behind the scenes, deputy chair of the Independence Committee, members of the Independence Committee, secretariat staff, constituency councils, the Royal Police Band, National Television Network NTN, which is the home of independence, and the media houses of HTS, Hot7 and DBS, producers, creative directors, filmmakers and videographers, sound engineers, lighting engineers, graphic artists, caterers, drivers and our sponsors, Flo, Harry Edwards Jewelers, DigiSell and Massey Stores. Happy Independence and Lucian's here at home and in the diaspora, when your thousands tuned in to us at home. May God continue to bless us and keep our God fairing nation safe. We are a resilient nation, we can, we will. Good night and thank you for watching. On behalf of the Government of St. Lucia, I want to express my profound gratitude to the Independence Committee under the able leadership of Honourable Janine Jiroudi McIntyre for the splendid work undertaken to deliver this year's virtual package of programmes for our 42nd anniversary of Independence celebrations. Over the last few days, our nation witnessed a reverent, captivating and memorable display of Senucian talent, particularly from our young people. And we saw this talent aptly displayed against the backdrop of our country's natural and majestic physical assets and the indefatigable warmth and love of our people. Indeed, at 42, we have much to be proud of and we must endeavour as a people never to underestimate ourselves because we can and we will succeed at anything we deemed important to us as a nation. This virtual celebration was indeed a classic. That is why my Government continues to invest in the creative sector, to capitalise on such occasions and afford young people the opportunity to realise their potential and make their contribution to the national development through the arts. The Covid-19 pandemic has tested our resolve in many ways, but we continue to trust God and put him first because it is only through him the vision for our country will unfold in the way it ought to.

All right, good morning, cyber traders, welcome back. Lovely Wednesday, let's say the ninth. Beautiful, good to see you, Brady. Good to see you, Neil, Michael, Louis, everybody on YouTube, welcome back, all right. Bill from YouTube from Chicago, good to see you all. All right, everybody, interesting morning. Yesterday was pretty exciting. I was just telling you, Josh, what happened yesterday, I'll tell you a little war story. I know some of you all have been there. Remember, the part about being a good trader is not learning how to make it, it's to learn how to stop losing it. That's the motto we always go by. And yesterday, it happened exactly to me, and I'm glad that I guided the bullet, and I love to share it with you. But hopefully, everybody was able to come to the event at four o'clock, if you did miss it.  Everybody here in the cyber group room, in the trading room, thanks for being there. I know we covered some of the, one of the big things we always teach, which is the kiss method, keep it super simple. So that worked out pretty well. And then I know you had traders talk, and I know Josh always does a phenomenal job when it comes to that. All right, so regarding about what happened yesterday, what to expect today? I mean, we're up about 250 points. The Dow is obviously doing pretty well. You could see that we're getting a little bit of a thousandth of a flag. We got some major resistance levels, hovering right here around 35,500. We do break it. It could definitely move out another 500 points. But the stock market obviously does look pretty good. I guess maybe I like the news, what happened with Germany and US about what happened with Russia. I mean, listen, wars are very dangerous. It could really shake up the market a lot. Obviously, what's going on with China too over there. So I think that's the big thing. I think everyone is, I told you about the Feds. The Feds don't like making big surprises. So I mean, if they go crazy, which I know they usually don't do that if they did historically, it never really happened. But they did, then you'll see some big corrections in the market. But other than that, there've been some pretty good buys out there on some certain stocks. So, and we saw what happened with cryptocurrency, making a big pop and all that good stuff. But regarding what happened yesterday, a couple of stocks I just want to cover. And I want to start off with the DCFC. So that stock was a really fun stock that we traded yesterday. I'm just going to zoom out here so you guys can see what happened. So this stock got halted and it's up big again, now the breaking new highs. But this stock out of nowhere around 10 o'clock, the stock just took off, we're from 750, all the way up to 850, shot up to 1150, and then came crashing down. It was a very fast-moving stock. It was very volatile. We always tell you, don't trade too many shares. You don't gotta, listen, you bought 1,000 shares and 11, it then goes down to eight, you're getting get crushed. If you bought 200, 300, you did okay. You don't gotta kill it. But we saw the writing on the wall, we saw this thing starting to pick up right around 930, made a nice push, and if you were at the right place at the right time, you did pretty well. She's moving again this morning, so it's gonna go back on the watch list. Hopefully everybody out there did their journals, what we taught you what to do and how to trade it so you remember how you did on it like last time. Another stock we traded yesterday was the MNDT. Just looking at another screen. So that one out of nowhere, another stock got halted. Let me zoom this up right here. Stock was trading at the highs of the day if you're in the right place at the right time. All of a sudden through 30 out of nowhere, the thing just literally just went from 1540, boom, shot up to about $18. Did a little bit of shake, went all the way to 19. So even if you missed this little bit of a gap that happened right here, and you literally only had about a minute to get in there when we saw that happening, you could see I made a big bump. It's holding here pretty strong, which is pretty interesting. Looks like another DCFC. So we're gonna put that one on the watch list also. Another stock that's gonna spin into, and remember, we always tell you, you wanna be a good swing trader, you gotta learn how to day trade first, okay? Because some of these stocks that became swing trades at day trades are now becoming swing trades. So let's talk about fund. Fund also, nice stock. We did really well with that stock yesterday. It was around 280, ran up to about 310. And then in the afternoon from 230, ran from 305. All the way up to about 345. Stocks looking pretty good. And do I have to remind you, if you're here for the first time, you remember we traded this stock. And now there's another President Trump stocks like the DWAC, this thing ran from $1 to $25, just like when we traded this stock right here, it looks like she's still moving. So once again, from a day trade became a swing trade. But this one's not moving that much to DWAC, but the fund is, I guess, because it's probably cheap. So like we say, it's gonna be fun to trade with fund. So that was another one. And we had our last afternoon pop in AMC. That stock obviously around 1030, that one moved pretty nicely too. It's got a lot of supports at 14. I don't know if you guys know that. It's got a lot of supports at 14. You can see it here. We've been watching it for a while. It hit over here, hit 14, went up too high, about 18. Hit 14 again, it's making the foul still flag. So it's got a lot of support. Now right now it looks like a double bottom. If we get a triple top, then I don't know about that 14 is gonna be support anymore. Once again, follow the money cyber traders. So another stock that moved pretty nicely was Peloton yesterday. So Peloton, obviously we know about the rumor, the buyout. The stock had a really nice push from line 30, had good after hours push. You can see it from $30, ran up to about 34, 37, all the way to 39. So let me tell you about a story that happened yesterday. So yesterday I was down yesterday, but I had a lot of confidence in Peloton. And this is what ended up happening to me. And you know what? I'm just gonna tell you a quick war story. All right, before we go through the watch list. But bought Peloton, the stock you could see was moving in 50 cent intervals. I mean, just look over here. Was living like almost a dollar. These are shakes. I mean, look over here. Like this is literally you have to be an advanced trader or trade the stock. You gotta have some real kahunas to trade stock like this. So anyway, I held it for a shake, which was right around here, I believe, yeah, 37. So I bought it, I sold it, I bought, I sold it. And I got caught up on a junk stock yesterday.  But I played this stock, I had a good price on it and then it came down on me.  Because I had at a bad price from 37, I rode the thing down to 35. So I was really losing a lot of money on the stock.  Let me just break even. I put a limit order out there, I got filled. Got filled and as soon as I got filled, I think it was right here, I think I got out at 36.40.  And I said, that's it, I'm done. I'm finished. I ended up being down $18 yesterday from being down almost like $500, $700, something like that. So, but I would end up being up, you do the math, all right? But it was, and I said, you know what? I got to a point, it says, you know what? I'm walking away and I was done. But that's what, you know, something that you have to learn from your mistakes. You know what? You got to get to break even. We talked about this in phase three. You got to get to break even. If you're down, get to break even, just take your profit and start all over again. But don't try to try to make it back and think, oh, now this is the big, big runner. But it was just obviously not my day yesterday. So that's, you know, like though we share that with you. The EVGO was moving yesterday. Yeah, we got that one too. We're gonna throw that back on the watch list too. The EVGO, all right? Right, you know, Wayne, you're right. And that's something that I teach you in class. The best way to do it is when you're down, get to break even, doesn't matter.  Just break, get to break even. You know, chip away, get to it. Because if you don't, you're gonna dig yourself in a bigger hole, in the bigger hole, in the bigger hole, and you don't wanna do that. All right, so let's talk about some of the stock. So we got this big pop that just came in on this E-C-O-L, all right? Now E-C-O-L, I'm sorry, not a piece of paper. Big pop that just came out of nowhere. The stock, if it was actually trading in pre-market, and during the market hours, it'd probably be halted right now. But I don't know if this is a buyout, whatever, this is a pretty interesting pop right here. We'll see how it opens up when the market opens up. But it looks like it's kind of holding here pretty strong. That looks really interesting. I wanna keep an eye on that one. DCFC, this is the warrant. But we know about DCFC. This is, I'm not here to teach you warrants.  But this is the common, is a common as a warrant. Make a long story short. A warrant is like an option trade, okay? So you can see that. Another stock that's moving, which we saw earlier, ENPH. So that stock has been moving pretty well the last couple of days in a week. You could see it was at 120, went to 140. It's not to 170, big resistance. Only issue, it's expensive. We don't like to trade expensive stocks. But sometime here and there, if we had a big runner, just like Snapchat, just like Peloton, just like Facebook, what else have we traded? PayPal, they're big in the news and we'll watch them. There were a couple of cheap ones, but I wasn't too crazy about them. I might consider put them on a second list. IFBD is actually down. I'm just working through my watch list. No secrets here, everybody. This'll let you know. We don't have any, I don't have any crystal ball or squat box or anything like that. We're just looking at the big percentage gainers and just taking our money and just run. By the way, this is the stock that got me. The stock had a big run and you could see it right here and it did a big shake. Just to let you know, if you wanted the stock I lost money on, it was this one right here. I thought the stock was gonna break out. I saw a couple of halts, the stock right here, 570. I got in, believe it or not, at 580 and I held, I got stuck. The thing ran all the way down to 590. I came back here, I ended up getting out at 520 and then you could see, make a long story short. It was a good loss, it was a good loss because look where it is right now. If I held that and didn't take my loss, I'll be at $3.30. All right, so as much as we like to talk about winners I like to talk about the losers more because most people don't know how to take losses and if you don't know how to take those losses you get caught in one of these, you're screwed. And there you go out of business. Got a nice little stock that's down today. I don't know if there's gonna be a short going into the open but 25,000 shares, I don't know if I say any good shorts out there. Hopping over here in the New York Stock Exchange, the stock looks pretty decent right here. It's cheap, it's got good tier sizes, it's up 29%. It's got some good volatility. I see some good iceberg orders. That one looks pretty good for some beginners. DOCS, was that DocuSign? Nice little trend, nice push. Good after hours, most came out earnings. Earnings always help out a lot. So DocuSign, you can keep an eye on that one.  I could tell you that if you're a beginner trader so be very, very careful. OMC, little expensive, nice trend, nice push.  Remember, volume is where we get the word volatility. So when we talk about volatility, we're talking about stocks that have good movement in the stock. So if they have good volatility we kind of stay away from them. Other than that, I don't think I see anything else. Any questions, anything I'm missing, I did not call out. Traders, anything out there? Well, Michael, thanks for sharing that. I really appreciate it. And I always like to share that with the traders. So what have we got here? Alex has any promo codes, year subscriptions to your website, Alex. Yeah, no problem. CyberTrader will post that in there. You can always email me, we'll be happy to get you that on YouTube. Just send me an email, Alex, and we'll be happy to get that over to you, okay? BC stocks is a pot stock. The BTC stock coming up. But I do own TLRY. I'm feeling a lot better with TLRY. I mean, like I bought TLRY, we had this little bit of a pop right here. We had this nice little move right here, kind of held here pretty strong. And I'm feeling a little bit better because it's kind of breaking the 636 price range, which is a support. So that one's looking pretty good. So we got that one. And I'm really curious, I still have my DraftKing. I got a little nervous on DraftKing because it came down a little bit, but if you notice, it looks like I'm making a higher high. So hopefully the Super Bowl is gonna help it out. All right, everybody, let's get back to trading markets, opening up in 15 minutes. We'll start commentary once the market opens up. If you're watching YouTube Facebook Live, listen, we're back here at 2.30. We're back here at 2.30 for the afternoon meeting. So please subscribe to us. Please don't miss out on that. And like I said, just be very careful guys out there. Just make your days pay. And that's it. And don't get too cocky. And also, like I said, losing is not a bad thing. As long as you know why you lost, you won't do that again, all right? Good luck, everyone. Happy trading, be safe. And we'll see you back here at 2.30. Cyber traders, we'll see you commentary in 15 minutes.


What's up, everyone? We are back with another Snack Creates. This is gonna be the final one for a little while, just because we wanna take a little bit of a break and then maybe bring them back. But let us know down below what you guys think. Do you want us to continue these videos or should we take a break or maybe try other things? But we love Snack Create because as a Canadian, if you order stuff like this from the United States, shipping is usually very expensive and the conversion rate as well. But this only costs $25 Canadian because it is in Canada. It gets shipped out somewhere up near Toronto. So since I am still in Ontario, it's free shipping. Plus it's only $25 and that is really cheap because you get five to six snacks on average and most of the time it's full-sized snacks and really great quality. So this one here, I remember it was supposed to be Canadian things. However, we got one of the world tour boxes so it could be anything from around the world inside here. Kinda like Munch Pack always is. We like Snack Create however because one box is themed for one country usually. That's usually why we love these more but it's gonna be interesting to see what they put in here from countries from around the world. I'm not sure if there's gonna be a cheat sheet but we're gonna be guessing to see what countries some of these snacks are from as well and maybe hopefully there's a way to tell if you were right for some of these. So unlike the country, it just says world tour here. Let's start with one that we've already had before. Okay, so this is one we've had. I'm going to say this is from Belgium. Is that where it's from? Belgium, yeah, I believe so. Crunky, bicky chips. This is actually kind of funny that we got something that we know where it's from. Yeah. It smells the exact same. Just like a sour, all dressed. Obviously these are gonna be put in first place but these are from Belgium so they're actually amazing and a very delicious snack. Definitely recommend. So first place for now? Yeah. Finny Roller Fizz. We had a fizz candy in the last box we did from Colombia so I'm gonna guess Columbia. Just by looking at it, yeah. I think potentially it could be from Columbia. Maybe. Strawberry flavor so I'm hoping it's not sour. It's not sour, it's very sweet. Sweet, yeah, very sweet. Definitely artificial strawberry but it's like juicy. Yeah, it's not bad. Would you put it first or would you put it second? I'd say the chips are still better. Yeah, this is gonna stay in second place with these. There's actually, I didn't realize, there's two. So mine is, I'm not sure where this is from at all. I'm not even familiar with the language. I'm gonna say Egypt maybe, I don't know. This one's lemonade flavor, which could be good. This one is great. It looks like a knock-off Starburst. Yeah, what the does? Ooh, that smells sour. Oh yeah, lemonade, huh? It doesn't even look like grape, but it's like blue, red. Hmm, that's not bad. Where would you put them? Third for now? Third. Yeah? Third. A little sour. Yeah, even the grape, a little bit sour. Yeah, I don't like sour stuff. Okay, so next is another one that we actually got from our Belgium box. Not exactly sure what it is. It is just a creamy milk chocolate flavor. It was phenomenal. Yeah, it was very good, yeah. Just like we did in that video, I don't even wanna taste it because this was so good. And we still have the other one that's still open, so I'm gonna just put this one in first place. Are you okay with that, or do you wanna taste it for this video? No, no, that's okay. It's kind of hard to tell what it is. We're not 100% sure. It's just a creamy milk chocolate with something inside it, but it is so good. And we know this is from Belgium because it was from that video as well. Next is this. I don't know, it kind of looks like a Smarty container, one of the ones, but it literally looks like Smarty's, now that I say that. But it's Pintarolas, Pintarolas, I'm gonna say maybe Mexico. It says it's from Portugal. It's Smarty's, it's hard to tell, but. Oh yeah, it looks exactly like Smarty's. Tastes way different than Smarty's though, but in like a really good way. I like the chocolate more. I do too. That's a really creamy chocolate. That's pretty good. Would you put these in first place? Cause I'm tempted to, or second. I'm okay with either one. I'd say second. Second place? It literally tastes like Smarty's, but the chocolate tastes better, it tastes creamier, the candy coating. The quality is way better. Yeah, honestly. And Smarty's are Canadians, so I mean. Yeah. It's not that we're batching Smarty's, but these taste a lot better. So that's second place right now. I don't know if you've had something like this before, but. I'm gonna say these are Canadian snack. I'm not familiar with the company, but it's strawberries and cream cookies, these little cookie treats. I think it's from the United Kingdom. I was gonna say Canada until I seen Jack and Jill, which I've never heard of. It doesn't say anything else here, so you may be 100% right. It probably is UK. It just doesn't say. Well, look at that. It looks exactly like we remember. Yep. I used to love these. I used to make my mom buy these whenever I was a kid. Yeah. All right. First place? Mm-hmm. That's from in childhood. So good. I think these specific ones are from UK, but actually tastes a little bit better than the ones we have here. Mm-hmm. Like it literally tastes like a cream filling rather than like a, I don't know. Frosted. Like a frosted filling. Really good recommend. That's our first place right now. We have one more snack left. It's a baked cake. And we actually have two of them, but do you want to share one? Yeah, we can share. Which, Japan is what I'm gonna guess, because that's, we got, whenever we did our Kit Kat video, the Ume flavor was from the Japanese Kit Kat. Right. So. Yeah. I don't know about this. I'm a little nervous. I don't think it was bad. No. It literally looks like a cake. Really like. Really soft. It's purple inside. So do you want the little piece? Yeah. Smells so good. That's good. You don't like it? It's not bad. It's just, there's not a lot of flavor. It is like a plain cake. Like a sponge cake. Yeah. But it does have that Ume flavor. I kind of want to put it in second place, but I'll let you decide where would you put it, and then I'll put it there. Let me take a look at what we have right now in order. I would put it in, Fifth. Fifth? I would have said first, but the strawberry cookies were delicious. Fifth place. So that means after the chips. So behind the chips. You know what, I'm okay with that because from that point on, everything is amazing. The chips are good. Both chocolates are amazing. The strawberry cookies are good. So putting it in fifth, to me, is like saying all five items are first place. Yeah. Because they're all good. Pretty much. That is amazing. I love the flavor. I love the texture. It's soft. I'm actually really impressed with that. So this box here, even though it is not from one specific country, this is one of the best snack rates that we've got in general. Oh yeah, no, it's really good. We love Belgium. We loved Turkey. The one from the UK only was very disappointing because there's a lot of stuff in it, like fish stuff and stuff that we just did not enjoy. But this one here from being from a whole bunch of places from around the world, taste-wise was amazing. I still would prefer the ones that are from one specific country so you get like an overall taste and experience from that country. Different snacks that they have there. But this was a nice experience. Now, the only thing I will say was a little disappointing was this one, whenever I came up as an automatic subscription, when I checked it did say it was from Canada. So it was supposed to be a Canada themed one. And I was excited because we are Canadian so we kind of wanted to see what snacks people portray as Canadian snacks, if there's snacks that we know, if we like, if they're actually Canadian. But we did end up getting this and it was not disappointing, it was really good. So hope you guys enjoyed this video. We're gonna leave this one here. Like I said, we might take a break but we might come back later this year with some more of these videos. Because we absolutely love them and for only $25 free shipping, that is amazing for us. And you get a lot of great stuff out of here. Definitely over $25 in value in my opinion. But I hope you guys enjoyed the video. We'll see you guys in the next one. Please take care. Peace. Bye.
