Even the smallest preferences, such as your preferred movie genre, can be big indicators of who you are and what type of personality you have. Who knew, right? So, are you wondering what your favorite movie genre says about you? Well, first, here's a friendly reminder that this video is made for entertainment purposes only. Well then, without further ado, let's get the show on the road. Number one, fantasy or animation. Can you count on one hand the number of times you held marathons for the Harry Potter series? Ah, okay, so you're from the Lord of the Rings clan. Do you like Pixar movies like Inside Out or Toy Story? Well, either way, the Fantasy Movie Lovers Club welcomes you with open arms. Who said animated and fantasy movies can only be liked by children, right? After all, who doesn't like time traveling with strange doctors or training their own dragon, teeth or no teeth?  And no, it does not mean you're immature. Sure, you are still a child at heart, but there's nothing wrong with that. Additionally, research shows that it's more usual for introverts who have developed a high level of imagination to like this movie genre because of the classic relationship between fantasy and imagination.

Number three, comedy.  According to the study, who watches what? Assessing the impact of gender and personality on film preferences, people whose favorite movie genre is comedy were confirmed to be more open, creative, and adventurous, as well as less organized and attentive. This is explained by the fact that the comedy genre tends to have more original content and plots that are unpredictable, which incentivizes more creative ways of thinking. Number four, are you hoping for another installment of the conjuring or thinking of binging paranormal activity again? Well, then it's no surprise that you are a formal member of the Horror Movie Lovers Club, shivers. If you're a member here, it's highly possible you might be an extrovert and conscientious. According to researchers at the University of Cambridge, horror movies are both defiant and intellectual. They provoke thoughtful ideology through depictions of chaos in mayhem. This goes to say you'll often challenge the norm, but the same reason might also make you a bit disagreeable sometimes. You are an independent thinker and strong person, which shows as you sit hooked to the screen without batting an eye. Number five, action. Do you enjoy movies that have fast paced fight scenes and plots?  If the 007 tune is your jam, then you are a premium member of the, yeah, can you guess that right? The Action Movie Lovers Club. As part of this club, you are a very hard working person who prefers to go get what you want rather than wait for things to happen.  You like trying new and exotic things because of your adventurous and open personality. Number six, romance. Now let's be honest, did you or did you not have something in your eye while watching Titanic? Do you get transported somewhere else when you hear the word notebook? Well, then the name of your club is bingo. Romance Movie Lovers. You are an official member of the club because of how romance movies make you feel. Just like the genre, you are someone who is extremely romantic. No doubt about that. You can be intense when it comes to the people that you love the most.  However, you are also less emotionally stable. Additionally, you crave the relaxation and tension-breaking effect that the happy endings in these movies provide. And number seven, science fiction. Are you a regular visitor of the outer galaxies of Star Trek? Is Fabi Yoda your ultimate best friend? Well, then you most likely are a premium member of the Science Fiction Movie Lovers Club. As shown in these movies, this genre revolves around a future where there is a great amount of injustice and suffering. The main protagonists of these movies go against and overthrow the authorities, be it an oppressing government or technology. According to researchers at the University of Cambridge, people whose favorite movie genre is science fiction tend to be fairly rebellious.  Each of the main elements from different movie genres has been researched and found out to be related to different human behaviors. It's probable that the points discussed might not be 100% accurate to your personality type based on your favorite movie. And this is because each person is unique and these are rough sketches to help unravel the mystery of personalities. Your personality might not be similar to your club and that's completely okay because humans are complex beings with varying tastes. As such, no definite boundaries can contain the limitlessness that is personality. Once again, a big shout out to MagellanTV for sponsoring this video.

So after two wins in just over or just under a week rather than be a good buzz around the camp I'm guessing at the moment Yeah, obviously better place in the football club when you've won and Yeah, it's good and we look forward to the next one and the hunger I supposed to make it free out of free this Saturday Yeah, well, that's the aim. I went to Steam on Tuesday Seem twice because I saw my rather and when our game-nest commentary got caught off saw me the other night so we know what to expect Changed the formation a lot from game-to-game and within games. So we've got to be prepared for that Because of that it's very difficult to prepare a certain Game plan against them. We've got to concentrate Playing for the best of our ability and do what we do Obviously the hunger for us to make it free on the job But as you'll have seen with Steven is the games you've got to see him obviously They need the points at the bottom end of the table So there's obviously going to be hunger for them to come here and try and try and get the victory as well We've said all season. There's very little to choose between the teams right across this division this year and So it's gonna be a difficult game We're really looking forward to a lot of training great today and We'll be ready for you know come Saturday and obviously it's our third home game on the trot How much of a boost has it been to be playing at home in this this little period? Obviously you've got the boost of the home support and everything that goes with it must be nice to have this little run-of-home games Yeah, I mean obviously it's a boost because we've won the first two and we needed to get the home The port of a game was there was a massive game for everybody the club because we've been Striving so hard to get that win being so close and put some very good performances without getting there But you can only go on for so long doing the port of a The manner of which the way we got that win was a huge boost And it was great that we could follow up against MK dons and in the MK dons game Simon McLean and John McLaughlin get a bit of a knock I suppose in the game. How are they ahead of this weekend? Yeah, fine. Absolutely fine


This is the Galaxy Z4 3. I've been using it for three months. So let's find out how useful and good it's been in those three months. Hey guys, Thundie here and thank you for joining me on my three month review of the Galaxy Z4 3 which I took with me to San Diego to test drive the new Ioniq 5 from Hyundai and I captured some really awesome footage with the Z4 3. So this is Samsung's latest flagship device for the year 2021. Now this comes in technically in place of the Galaxy Note in terms of the release timeline during the year and as a note user myself, I was a bit perplexed about why I didn't get the note but the Z4 3 brings in a lot to the table. Now in terms of just pure hardware, this is in engineering marvel. The fact that this year we now have water resistance with the device is truly amazing. Something that has a movable hinge and also dual displays is also nice. Now the cover display is still roughly the same size, internal displays also slightly larger with the under display front facing camera which I will say look it's not the best when you want to take photos with it but it will suffice quite well for video calls and it gives you much cleaner real estate for those gaming sessions or whether you're watching content, I think that really works out well. But as a note user, we still miss the S Pen this year and I think that's something that they added that really added a new touch to this device altogether. Being able to write and use in any form or function was just pretty good with the Z4 3 of course that's only done on the internal display and not on the cover display so that is something I really want to see with this device moving forward. Now you've got triple cameras on the Galaxy Z4 3 and they're all 12 megapixels and they do take some really great photos now. I was flying out to San Diego to go check out the Hyundai IONIQ 5. I was able to capture images you know out the plane while we're having lunch and also of the Hyundai IONIQ 5 which is a great vehicle. Honestly it is slick, it is elegant, it's got this retro futuristic yet just understandably awesome look to it that got everyone's attention while we're driving the car around. Now besides all that, it packs in a lot of tech and a lot of punch into this vehicle. You've got a range of up to 303 miles, zero to 60 in less than five seconds and you can get it in a dual or single motor configuration which means of course you get all wheel drive with that, this bad boy. Now you also have a massive trunk and a lot of space that makes it look like yes it looks like it's a small vehicle but it's got a lot of space inside, there's a lot of space for the back seat as well as well as for the front seats and the driver with that fold requiring seats while you're charging. Now charging is super fast in this vehicle on the Electrifier America network and you've got dual displays at the size of 12.3 inches with one full touchscreen display at the center console that allows you to access Android Auto, Apple CarPlay as well as also the ability to honestly I love this feature though to heat and cool your seats. Now I live in the northeast so of course heating your seats is great but driving out you know in some steamy warm weather cooling your seats as well is pretty nice. Now if you want to find out more about this awesome vehicle then definitely use the link down below and find out more about the Hyundai Honor 5. So back to the Galaxy Z4 III like what's the usability like? I've mentioned scenarios where I've liked it, it's worked and it's worked quite well. I would say for me on a day to day it's been very easy to use but also slightly clunky. I have to admit this is not a thin or light device, it's something you will definitely get used to but it does have some weight and the sizing is more than your traditional smartphone. If I take my Galaxy S21 Ultra and put it next to each other you can see how thick the other device is from one another. Now of course when you open it up and you lay flat it feels nice and comfortable. Now the other thing of course is that S-Pen. I love the way it works on this device and I love that the fact that it supports an S-Pen but there's no housing for the S-Pen. As you can see I'm using a custom case here for the S-Pen and it's really nice, it's much better than the Samsung case and I actually did a TikTok of various cases that I tried on this device and I'm glad there are lots of cases for it but it kind of highlights the problem you have with the Z4 IIIs that you cannot of course store that pen successfully and even this looks good but again it creates a bulge and it doesn't allow the device to lay flat if I'm actually using it closed. Now the other thing of course is that cover display. It's great to have something that gives you you know full access to your device without opening it up but it also limits with the width and also limits with just overall usability. I tend to open up my device and start typing as if I'm using it on a larger display and that's something I felt more comfortable with and that allows me to use more of the multitask functionality being able to use you know three apps at the same time and also having enough real estate to actually navigate those apps quite effectively. I mentioned gaming earlier and gaming really is something that excels on this device. This is probably the best way to game I would tell anyone if you're a gamer and you have this because you've got the Snapdragon AAA processor you've got enough RAM to do all the things you need to do and you've got the real estate for that gaming experience. Now the question begs to be answered. Who is the Galaxy Z4 III 4? Is this for the everyday user? Absolutely not because of course number one in retail is for about you know $1,800 and it's not priced like a regular smartphone. Now you can get various deals, there's some that give you you know if you basically sign up for a new account it drops to $1,000 you can get rebates from Samsung and so forth. But this device truly is for the power user who wants something that allows them to do more device tasks at the same time with a single device. So whether you travel a lot and you need to watch content, you're checking email, you're actually doing work from your device, this will work out very very well. This real estate is an awesome canvas for you to actually do a lot of work but also have fun and play at the same time. I think that is the user this is targeted for and I think that is why we saw the inclusion of the S Pen to bring more functionality to the table. I think overall all the other features are solid. I really don't have any complaints about the device other than the ones I have stated are in this video. There's nothing major. I do want to see a redesign of the Galaxy Z43 to be slimmer, you know a hinge to be more robust as well as also less of a crease and that kind of brings to mind the Oppo Fine End which we just saw glimpse of from Oppo and yes I will be receiving that device pretty soon. So you guys will see a comparison and also what that device actually does so stay tuned for that video and at this point I'll tell you I'll see you over on that video. Enjoy entertainment.


The most powerful force on earth is the untamed fire of the human soul You probably saw this coming since the soul is such a huge topic with so many different avenues and interpretations We obviously couldn't fit it all into one video. So here comes the promise sequel Previously we looked at the history of Western thought on the matter of the soul Including the Egyptian and Greek conceptions as well as the general eastern ideas in Buddhism and Taoism So today let's continue our story looking at some less common traditions from around the world specifically some of the shamanic and indigenous views of the soul Before we get started the very concept of shamanism requires a bit of explaining and myth-busting as the phrase Shamanism is used quite often today, but in a rather obscure way We all probably have some picture in our minds when we hear the word like some kind of medicine man or woman who Gives you a magic potion to guide you through the spirit world and engage in ritual dances But the thing is it's more of a category or type of practice rather than a religion or belief See the word shaman probably comes from the Tungusic Siberian word shaman meaning one who knows But ironically for a phrase about knowing this is pretty contested While the dictionary defines a shaman as someone who has access to the world of benevolent and malevolent spirits Who typically enters into a trance state during a ritual and practices divination and healing This is a pretty huge oversimplification In fact the word shamanism originally only applied to the ancient religious practices of the Turks Mongols and Tungusic peoples But when early Western anthropologists started seeing similar beliefs or contexts around the world in other indigenous societies They just transferred the term over without truly understanding it It was used to describe unrelated Magico religious practices found within the indigenous religions of other parts of Asia Africa Australasia and even completely unrelated parts of the Americas as they believed the practices to be the same Classic scientists Ultimately, we should remember that each people and tribe have their own ways of life and use terms in their own languages To conceptualize both their own spirituality and their soul Our differences are to be celebrated not generalized and run away from for the most part though The one general idea most people can agree on is that shamans act as Intermediaries or messengers between the human world and the spirit world and offer some kind of guidance So with that little tangent out of the way, let's return to souls One of the most common beliefs among shamanistic practices is this idea of soul dualism This is the idea that someone has to or occasionally more souls within them Usually you'll have one bodily soul which takes care of the boring stuff like breathing and physical life and all that stuff and A free or wandering soul that can leave the body and go into some kind of other world Among Australian Aboriginal and Polynesian traditions we see the concept of the Nawa and Dusa The Nawa is the material soul and is also one of the words for breath Funny how consciousness is always associated with breathing, huh? The Nawa is supposedly located in either the abdomen heart or liver and is associated with daily functions and life The Dusa though is more in line with the free soul and is located in the head Dusa actually means twin or double in the proto-Austronesian languages So it seems to be kind of similar to the suit from the Egyptian mythology in the nearby Filipino tradition a Virtuous or holy figure is said to be someone whose two souls are in harmony or balance while suffering or evil is said to be a result of the souls being in conflict with themselves or Sometimes one not being there at all This is strikingly similar to the wisdom of the ayahuasca eros that we've been connected with at Rhythmia We've shared that all disease Depression illness and stress comes from a disconnection with our soul and that by doing the inner work Merging with our souls and healing our hearts We can become whole Unified beings and that these issues melt away when that healing takes place in a lot of shamanic healing practices Especially among the Austronesian traditions a disease or illness of some kind is often seen as a result of losing an aspect of your souls Since the free soul can often leave the body during trance stress sleep or confusion It seems like to some indigenous traditions then the soul is seen as an aspect of ourselves that controls Or maybe even is our inner being While we might liken it to the unconscious mind I think the sense here is that logic reason and the mind itself Arguably results from the two souls coming together in the body allowing us to live both physical and spiritual lives One of the main ways healing takes place in the Austronesian tradition is for a shaman to Return the lost parts of the human soul from wherever it's gone and in doing so brings us back into balance Something that I think is beautiful is that in the medicine traditions of the dagara people of West Africa The famous healer Maladoma Somme argues that mental illness results from a similar situation In fact to him mental illnesses are almost soul Emergencies and need to be regarded as such as it signals the beginning of a journey for a potential healer According to Somme when energies or entities from the spiritual world emerge in or influence a Western psyche Most people are completely unequipped to integrate them or even recognize what is happening Which ultimately leads to issues like depression and disassociation Among the dagara however the community helps the person reconcile the energies and souls of both worlds by Separating them out so that they can be observed and communicated with Helping the person transmit messages between the two and act as a healer for the tribe themselves Now moving on on our soulful world tour Let's go a bit further north to the Inuit peoples of Alaska and Canada Like before we should remember that the Inuit are a huge diverse group of people and grouping them all together in one single Eskimo religion is a big no-no move That said similar beliefs are shared among regions close to each other albeit under different names One of the more well-known soul beliefs comes from the Inuktitut speaking people of eastern Canada Where the soul is known as a near-neak, which you can probably guess by this point is also their word for breath Either everyone just knows we need oxygen to live or I'll secretly onto something here Now similar to our buddy Aristotle many Inuit believe that all things have a soul just like humans Among the tiki-gak people humans were made up of three main parts two main souls Known as the Injyuseik and Ilikusik life force and personal spirit and a name soul known as attik After death the Injyuseik is said to leave the body for the east But the other souls could be reborn the soul of both animals and humans can exist after death After it's being liberated from the body Interestingly though due to the harsh winter and you know constant fear of death and hypothermia and stuff The Inuit worldview is kind of bleak and their view of spirits is generally one of fear the Kenai vegetarians in the audience though Might have already noticed something if all animals have souls and the majority of the Inuit diet is stuff like seals and fish we're gonna have one big angry ghost seal on her hands and you'd be totally right a Common Inuit saying is that the greatest peril of our existence lies in the fact that our diet consists entirely of souls Since all souls are equal if you kill an animal in some Inuit cultures It is akin to killing a human and that animal could potentially come back and haunt you and hey You don't want to have to deal with a ghost seal as well as a harsh winter, right? But it's not like you can grow an avocado tree or order in a meat substitute in the middle of a frozen tundra So what are you gonna do? This is where the Angakuk or shaman comes in see the soul of the dead can only be calmed down and implored not to seek vengeance by obedience to custom avoiding taboos and performing the right rituals If you just go seal hunting willy-nilly you risk offending their soul and on top of the unpredictable climate Doing such a thing is basically asking for extinction Now the other big deal in Inuit folklore with regards to the soul is this concept of the Sila Inui Sila is a bit confusing to us on the one hand He is a spirit of the sky the wind and the weather Although he's never actually depicted in art since he's seen as formless or pure energy But in most of the myths about him he isn't really treated as a character instead. He's an impersonal force of creation He probably isn't even the right word to describe it and for me personally the concept seems more kind of like the force than a God That said Sila does also have a malevolent human aspect being known in some traditions to lure children away from their play Often to the tundra never to be seen again Just in case you weren't already confused The word itself is found a lot in the Inuit languages in different forms and generally means something like space Intellect or sky It's seen as a force or component that makes up and connects all life Kind of similar to the ether in our understanding of it Everything that occurs is said to occur within Sila and all souls are understood to be a part of it Simply borrowed temporarily until they return to the infinite hole after death Although each soul is an individual Sila is also the essence or thing that makes up the soul itself the material it is made of so we are all connected through it Since the word can also mean breath or spirit There's a sense that Sila is also the breath of life and the method through which things progress and move Among the copper Inuit shamans were believed to obtain their power from Sila, which they called the wind in dweller So even their helping spirits were termed as Sila Inuit as outsiders It's impossible for us to understand the true meaning and nature of this breath of life But since the belief is so widespread among Inuit populations Anthropologists believe it's incredibly old In fact, Sila may have been one of the oldest conceptions of the divine among the Inuit Before being supplanted by more popular figures like Sedna the seal mother and the caribou mother Since all souls are connected through Sila the shaman who interacted with it are believed to be able to borrow their powers Or characteristics of other souls within it by taking the attic or name of them Similarly a keeper or someone connected to a certain type of beings like seals or whales Can also invoke that species soul and then it can act as a spirit guide or helper to the shaman To aid in his efforts of communication with the spiritual worlds So where does all this leave us with what a soul actually is in shamanism? Well while the conventional definition from last time still kind of applies That the soul is our incorporeal or non-physical essence or being It almost appears like the physical body is secondary or at least resultant from it The soul is the primary core teaching of shamanism in its therapeutic sense Everything is understood from the soul's perspective be that illness death birth depression madness relationships conflict or whatever else In some traditions infertility in women is supposed to be cured by the shaman venturing out into the spirit worlds To find and bring home the soul of the future child Wrapped up in this then is a knowing via experience that the soul journeys through multidimensional landscapes seemingly not limited by time or space This is where the conception differs from something like buddhism like we talked about earlier Where energy is simply conveyed throughout our lifetimes in many indigenous communities Our soul is imbued with our personality memories and vital essence All of which can occasionally be incarnated into different bodies The key distinctive part of the picture that shamanism fills in though Is that a soul loss can occur when parts of it venture off and stay gone until we come looking for them This ultimately brings a multi-part philosophy to our soul Our energy isn't just one single essence But rather a combination of different parts or aspects that come together to make a unified whole And occasionally one of those aspects may get damaged or lost as we go through our daily lives Which requires us to retreat inwards either with plant medicine meditation breath work or other practices to heal our connection And bring ourselves back into balance There's still one more aspect of the conversation to cover though the modern approaches So in the next episode we'll look at the more new age approaches of how we got there Culminating into where exactly the soul fits into modern science and consciousness It's an interesting idea that our soul has multiple parts or dimensions And where exactly awareness or consciousness fits in there's a huge discussion Especially since there does appear to be a space or gap between our emotions that allows us to perceive them The one thing that does seem certain though is that the shamanistic approach is very ancient and natural Putting strong emphasis on the interconnectivity between ourselves and the world around us And so until next time remember to balance all aspects of your soul not just your energetic or emotional centers Toodles


A little juicy and the juicies right here. Oh, there's one Come here. Oh, no hook set. No hook set. Don't get around that pole Howdy welcome back to the channel everybody. Let me ask you a question real quick Yeah, we're just getting the truck and you're like, I'm gonna go fish somewhere new That's literally what I have just decided today's video is sponsored by Mystery tackle box how fitting that this is gonna be a mystery today I was literally on my way to a lake because you guys know I don't I don't fish the same lake all the time I know my channel names like four guy.  I like to travel. I'll say I get bored of fishing the same lakes and it keeps me on my toes I feel like you guys learn more when I'm traveling around. I'm always trying to figure things out myself It's truly like me figuring out the fish as we go along. So I think that helps everybody out Helps me become a better angler. I don't really fish tournaments anymore So this is kind of my way to hone my dangle skills So I was on my way to this lake and then I saw this other lake on the map as I was going You know, I've never fished here before I don't really know what it's about I want to go discover it and see if I can catch fish. I know it has docks on it We just had a ton of rain. I was planning on fishing some docks anyway, and I thought you know This lake place has got a ton of docks. Let's go see if we can catch some fish on this new body of water Mystery Taco Box is a subscription based tackle service that caters to anglers of all kinds What's great about them is they have a team of researchers that are always looking at new baits coming into the market and The times of years that these baits are going to be best for you So they pick them out They send them right to your door and they even give you Information about how to fish those baits where to fish those baits they have a library of Videos and information that's going to help you be a better angler This makes the perfect gift for any angler in your family anybody interested in fishing or for yourself or somebody You know that just wants to get into fishing more wants to learn new techniques new lures that you're not seeing on the regular Retail shelves and they have a variety of different subscription services You can even get just one box or you could get six months three months a year Whatever caters to you they are going to hook it up and make sure that you're happy go ahead and get signed up If you haven't already I'll make it easy for you There's a link in the description and you can use the code Mondo again That is code Mondo and you'll save on your first subscription So just get started off right a little discount Let me just show you the layout of what I've got in this month's pro box and my game plan of dock fishing out here There's tons tons of docks every time I go to a lake that has docks, and I've never been there before that's usually what I end up starting To do because fish live on docks year-round. It's really good summer time You don't have to know a whole lot about the lake to fish docks if you know how to fish docks Which we're gonna get into here in a little bit It's just an easy way to target fish if you're unfamiliar with the lake We got a good summer lure setup right here. We got a cream speed screamer. This is a creature bait I'm actually gonna use this as a jig trailer on a little juicy jig. It's one of my favorite dock fishing Lures under spin. So these are really good summer time lures right here. I'm gonna put that a little saucy swimmer On that most likely now. I am most confident in a jig I had a I almost never go out to lake without Rigging up a jig and if I see any open water activity fish busting at the surface anything like that I'll definitely put on an under spin or some sort of little swim bait And target those fish that way, but we've got stained water.  That is my jam That is my jam and jelly right there y'all. I love to fish a jig I will fish all day without a bite on a jig because I just love to do it But we're gonna go figure it out new lake. I've got about five hours out here So I'm gonna go try to figure them out. Let's see what we can do y'all So this time of year what I'm looking for Is docks that have Deepwater access that way those fish have safety. They can move up on the docks They can feed live around there when it gets rough. I'll just go out to deep water. So that's what I'm looking for right now Okay Water definitely looks up deep water close by there's a brush pile All of these questions the mysteries that lie below the water. That's what makes us anglers and fishermen Try to get it up in the cranny here. Oh That was a cast I've actually got 12 on here not 15 that is Scary, but I can cast it really well More likely to get bites Do you see some baitfish swimming around these docks pick up a square here? Throw it down this bank for a minute Got him. It's got to be yellows. They're just nibbling These are delicious. This is actually in the perch family Boy big bass like to eat them too If you're not really careful, they have these really really sharp gill plates They're definitely biting. They're definitely fired up and biting Yellow bass This is not going to give you the most Exciting fight. It's not what I'm here for but try to figure out what is going on with all all the different species And a lot of times what I find is if I if I find white bass if I found fine crappie if I find Whatever those those fish that are eating bait You'll end up finding finding out a lot about the bass too or maybe you end up being in the same exact area so You know just just knocking the dust off here getting oh my gosh, they're just Creemating this thing. No, it's like they're not even letting it get down there What in the world Wow swimming a jig out from under a dock giant White bass that is like sunburned on top comes and grabs it I What can I say guys those things They love me and want to get in the boat with me. So so far we've got yellow bass and white bass It means we've got a lot of a lot of shad eaters in the area I honestly thought that was gonna be a spotted bass. That's normally what happens with spots you'll fish a finesse jig Fish it on the bottom then you'll go to start reeling it in and they just chase it And that's how you know they're kind of suspending but That was a sure enough large white bass I've got the panoptics faced at the dock and you can see all the poles and you could see a few fish That are only like five feet down Suspended in there. Oh It's just just I can't resist Not gonna keep you today At least for now, I just saw this group of crappie on my my panoptics and I'd you know I never leave home without my crappie jigs got him Come here begging Just slurping it. Oh There's a green one trust me. You don't want to flop around on there too long It's already burned my feet and that is on a shallow dock much shallower than these others Ah, just have one eat it right there a little one On the swim in I think I might switch to a crankbait or moving bait Same exact spot Is that last bite that I got it's right on the backside of the current of these docks It's like right there in that current where that That pocket where the currents coming through Okay, I'm gonna try and open water dock edge for a minute Break out this little under spin Okay, nothing suspended under the dogs there Time for a little switcheroo y'all. I just came up the river this lake is kind of It's got like an open area in the southern end of the lake and then it starts turning into a river So I've tried to like go up around the middle lake. It's like up here There's reeds the water is more dirty. It's gonna be more shallow But I'm still gonna fish around the docks, but just a little different look, you know I want to make sure I'm not missing out on some juices Chopper coming through Please point out the bass coordinates, please send them down my way 10 for oh There's one. Oh, that's a big one. Oh my gosh Come here, buddy. Oh My god, that's a big bass. Oh my gosh 12 pound line.  No, no, no, no, no, no, that was not expecting to catch one like that That's a hoggamer there Come here, sir. I was up there in three or four feet of water There's no boat flipping this one.  It's like bobbing for Mondos.  Oh, it's got a little dorsal fin missing right there slow swim off So still using that same jig all just literally moved to a different part of the lake and just cracked a good one It was kind of a weird bite like the way it just it was running with it I knew it was something but I wasn't sure it was gonna be a big pass So I just kind of leaned on it and that little tiny hook That little sharp hook, you know, this isn't like a like a flipping style hook It just goes right in the mouth. Just and I like to fish a shorter rod when I'm dock fishing and that is one of the reasons why Because if you're pitching up close, you got a 7-6 heavy rod and you just pop them with that A lot of times you'll break them off, especially if you're throwing like 15 I've broken off 20 plenty of times So I actually downsized my dock rods like five or six years ago And I started breaking off a lot less fish and I can get it into targets a lot better So if you're throwing Shorter rod, you just have more accuracy and for me the perfect one is like seven to seven to just somewhere around there I've got really good accuracy still still enough leverage and I throw a medium heavy You know, I don't even throw a heavy Especially if I'm throwing 12 pound line like I am right here. This is a finesse jig set up I had more for like highland reservoirs When I was fishing broken bow and whatnot So as long as you don't pop them hard and they don't run up under the dock into something nasty You can get them But I kind of got lucky right there because the fish it went on a pole But it's a smooth pole as you can see right here. It's not like all rusted out So it made contact with the pole and then came back around and I just kept just enough pressure Where it swam out and then that's when I really started cranking on it got it in Hey guys, it would take a moment to enjoy a nice big pecan log Well I'm gonna do that At least eat a bite of it. Look at the inside of that thing Well, that was a boat snack and a half right there. I like that All right little shade zone boat ramp Rocks a little juicy and the juicies right here. Oh, there's one Come here. Oh, no hook set. No hook set. Don't get around that pole. Hardly hook set. Ah Get around there 12 pound line This is not good There he goes There's that one I was looking for just a nice twofer. You know what I'm saying Just a nice two ski.  I was trying to catch up to that fish But that's a nice, you know two and a half pound fish Good fish on the juicy and a little pocket These fish are shallow man shallow You know, I mentioned I mentioned this in a video the other day about the fish's mouth But the waters like mid 80s or it's just over 80 right now That water starts to get you know high 70s into the 80s and their mouths become pretty loose just having this Juicy little juicy jig with a small hook you don't put a as big of a hole in their mouth So they have less of a chance to get off whereas like if you're throwing a Flipping jig with a stouter hook you're putting a bigger hole in their mouth and then they have more of a chance to To escape on you Dude that thing just took my trailer My gosh See if a square bill dang one up here.  It's not a it's not a bad little trailer Y'all that was it there has got to be one on this corner somewhere It's got like a little there's a little bite there glue go It's got a little corner nook on the other side that looks outstanding God Good golly hit it on the way down Suspended oh Man, what did I just came over some fish right there? Oh, dude Fish was suspended and hit the finesse jigs while it was sinking Got it. He was thinking it hit it on the sink. It's a good one There's doc. Oh, it's a big one. Oh my gosh. I think this is the same fish that hit me and then it came back Suspended hit it on the way down.  You can catch them suspended on the bottom It's the best utility bait of all time Freakin perfect hook set again Y'all look at that chunker right there That one's upper fours Upper fours just look right there That's all you got to do just point just comes right out And once I poked him it was open water He swam out the right way What a freaking fatty little torn up from the spawn, but been eating up good on bluegill and put him in the well for just a second That technique right there. I've caught a lot of fish on and actually in the 2007 Collegiate bass championship the boat us one that I Competed in and one with my partner This was the technique that I was using I was throwing finesse jig with a little trailer like this on poles like that Letting it sink down and we were in like 30 40 feet of water and right there. I was in 17 but the fish hit it in like five or six and if you use a trailer like a grub trailer or a little Crawl trailer it'll sink a little slower and they'll they'll think it's a bluegill while it's sinking on the way down suspended right on those posts and then you Do that was that was so cool just a nice fish For a lake I've never been to That's a nice chunky fish, you know See you Get back on that dock Eat those gills. Oh angry. I like when they give me a little sass Just good stuff man and catching them on a jig. Come on now. You got to smash it y'all. I love fishing jigs I know I know some of y'all are intimidated on jigs because I hear that in comments I hear that just in conversations, you know, a lot of people just go to the Texas rig, which is fine Do you with the Texas rib?  It's all connected right there.  Oh my gosh had one on Got him. Are these larges just Chilling on there on that pole. That was on a crappie jig mind you They are in there Going down the hatch. Oh Those are what's going on. Okay a lot of folks stop at the bass. They're satisfied. I Like to catch the bass, but I like I like the other ones too The other ones deserve some attention, especially the tastier ones I think Here we go, that's like a spotted bass or bluegill that has it. That's a bass Largemouth bass just not a big one. I Felt him doing that same thing with the trailer. I Just let him hang on to it Little guy little guy Hope see you bye Before we go any further before I catch one of my last few fish through here. It's getting hot if you're going to use Under 15 pound fluorocarbon on something jig Whatever sometimes I do it on my crankbait especially when I'm going down to like eight pound test I'm gonna show you guys a knot. I haven't shown on this channel for a really long time and It's a double San Diego Jam It's either double San Diego Jam or double Eugene been what I'm about to show you is just really good Not for fluorocarbon. Just that's all you got to remember It doubles over what I typically tie which is just a just a uni knot.  We're gonna use the scissors So hang on to those On the double Eugene been you're gonna go through Let's get in here close.   I'll wet it Pull it down and then I'll take that extra loop You really use a lot of your fingers here and then just pull all of them There you go, and then you're gonna end up with three tag ends make sure you don't cut your main line So you got your loop Cut that off Then you got your one little tag in there Cut that off And now you have The the strength you have like almost a hundred percent strength on that knot and there's no crimping whatsoever, I'll get a tight shot of that so you guys can see it, but It doesn't work as well with higher diameter lines because you've got a big bulky knot up in front But when you have you know, 8 10 12 pound line, it's definitely not as bulky and It's just stronger. So if you want a little bit more of a little bit more clinch on there W gene bend San Diego jam, whatever you want to call it. Don't know the exact term But just know holds them very much tightly thinking one more It's time to go cool down Up in the cranny Oh, I think one just grabbed it right there. Oh Sure did that was a good hit to how did he escape? I'm really not sure. I don't know how that fish got off. He didn't take my trailer He was just swimming with it.  Oh, are you gonna do it? You gonna do it one last cast Try to thread the needle here.  I'm gonna end it first time coming out of here learned a lot I like the lake a lot of shallow fishing and I'll definitely be back I think it's pretty cool body of water and a lot more of this shallow stuff to explore You know, it's just like so daunting. I'm at the point right now where I need to go explore more But it's gonna take me a lot more time to find Some more juicy stuff like this this last stretch that I went through fish freaks never leave home without your jigs And if you want to pick up some juicies I'll leave a I'll leave a link down below the little juicies the juicies Want to thank mystery talk box again for sponsoring today's video as well Long-time partner love working with mystery talk box to catch go the whole team. Good guys. They're actually coming down soon We're working on more rods more stuff for y'all So thank you for tuning in today if you want to stay tuned for more action like this go ahead and subscribe and I'm thinking about doing a like Whole day experience, you know today I'm obviously editing and everything but I'm thinking about just doing a live stream One of these days where you get to see every single thing that I'm doing every single decision failure Success hopefully so let me know in the comments if that's something that you would be interested in I've never done anything like that Obviously it had to be it had to be somewhere like here where I'm still kind of in the city and have have some service But been tossing the idea around until the next adventure. I'm wishing you the best in all of your dangles.


Welcome back. Let me sum up the two elements theory in the formation of customer international law. The first element is said to be the objective element. It is about what is usually done. In international law what is usually done is referred to as the practice of states. Practice can be made of actions or even abstentions in actions.  Practice can be found in domestic legislation, in decrees, in the behavior of governmental agencies, of the armed forces, in judgments of domestic courts, etc. As long as the factual or legal behavior can be said to be the behavior of states rather than the behavior of individuals or corporations, we have practice that can count as far as the creation of custom is concerned. But the behavior of states about individuals and about corporations or about other non-state actors, that behavior of states may also count as practice. However, one instance of practice is not ineth. Practice needs to be recurrent, both in time and over space. Practice must be general. Remember the words of article 38 paragraph 1b, international custom as evidence of a general practice accepted as law. Well this means that the behavior taken into account must be regular and consistent over time. It must be repeated. There must be a pattern of similar acts, repetition, consistency, is at the heart of the notion of custom. Therefore the idea that custom can be instantaneous is very much alien to it. Furthermore, the settled practice must not only exist in time but also over space. That is, it must not only be repeated by one or two states but it must be shared by a real plurality of states. Not necessarily a plurality comprising all states but at least a plurality comprising states that are most likely to be specially affected by the rule emerging from the practice. To take a straightforward example, for the delimitation of maritime zones, the practice of landlocked states, states without a coast, that practice can be disregarded, although more so that it is unlikely to exist. But this is precisely the point. It does not matter that landlocked states, despite being numerous, have no practice about maritime delimitation for a customary rule about that subject to emerge. The practice must not only be general, it must also be accepted as law, as Article 38 puts it. This is the second element in the two-element theory of international custom and it is said to be the subjective element of custom. In Latin it is referred to as the Opinio Juris Sive Necessitatis. Using Latin words sounds serious but it makes things even more mysterious. So what does this actually mean? The point is really the difference between, on the one hand, a pattern of practice which makes a usage, a habit, a tradition, things are done because they are usually done that way. And on the other hand, a pattern of practice which makes a legal obligation enshrined in custom. Things are done because they ought to be done that way. What makes the difference between the two is this subjective element. As you have seen from the North Sea Continental Shelf case, the ICJ says that the states concerned must feel that they are conforming to what amounts to a legal obligation. Now this is quite peculiar for two reasons. First, it is strange to say that states, after all, are only abstract legal entities have feelings as if they were human beings. But the idea is that states must have somehow express themselves about the legal dimension and meaning of their practice. Second, there is a logical trap in saying that the second constitutive element of custom is the sense of a legal duty to conform with the practice. Indeed, how could one have the sense that the practice is obligatory when the issue is precisely the emergence of an obligation? Is it not putting the cart before the horse to say that states must be of the opinion that what they do is compulsory when what is actually at stake is the creation through the combination of practice and opinionaries of a binding obligation in the form of a rule of custom international law? To get out of this logical trap at the stage of the emergence of custom, let me submit that it is better to consider that the opinionaries is not so much the feeling of complying with what the law requires, which would be impossible since the law is in the process of emerging, but rather the opinionaries should be understood as the intent to make custom.


The FedNow instant payment platform is upon us. It's going to be released on July 2023, which is this year. So the question we have to ask ourselves is FedNow, the instant payment system, good or bad for Bitcoin and digital assets? Me personally, I think it's good and I'm going to explain to you why.  So this was actually brought to my attention. I was a video on FedNow and it's three minutes long. It's kind of boring, but I'll link in the description. You can watch the whole thing. I was going to show you the first 40 seconds. So just check this out. Today, people and businesses expect to make and receive payments at the click of a button any time of the day, every day of the year. And most expect their financial institutions to offer or support payment services that meet the speed and convenience they seek. In fact, three and four businesses and two-thirds of consumers surveyed think it's important that their bank or credit union offer faster payments. Financial institutions interested in meeting these demands can use the federal reserves of coming FedNow service to build innovative payment offerings that can help them retain and attract customers and avoid losing out to the competition. Competition. On the very last thing that I was said, competition. Now, we are on crypto and digital assets. Of course, we will think, well, of course, the competition, Rob, is Bitcoin and Ethereum and Shiba Inu and Ripple and whatever else that you want to throw in there, XRP. But in all honesty, it's everything that has to do with payments. It could be Zell, it could be Cash App, it could be Stripe, it could be PayPal. It's everything for finality. Look, I'm in America and everybody still keeps banker hours. So for me, for payments to zip around, if it's on a Friday, like today, I got to pay somebody, you're going to have to wait. It's going to take a bit of time. And if I need to pay somebody in another country, forget about it. So for FedNow instant payments, it's going to work out pretty well here. I'm not sure how it's going to work out globally. Me personally, I don't think this is the end all be all in the most awful thing of all time. I know one of the channels are going to talk about FedNow and how the devil incarnate is behind it. But me personally, if you want to make payments a bit faster and easier or whatever else, sure, go right ahead. Then people will say, of course, but Rob, you don't understand because they can shut down your account. Here's the truth. The federal government could shut down my account right now. They go, hey, look, that guy, Rob, the digital asset news, he's a terrorist. We need to shut down his account. And they could very well easily do it, which is just the right documentation and paperwork. Now, I don't think they're going to, I'm not a terrorist, but who knows. So the question that, of course, everybody's talking about right now is, well, first of all, is what are these instant payments for? Who can use them? And how is this going to lead us? And why is crypto digital assets doing quite well? So it comes on to this. So right now, this is from the actual website of the FedNow. And it says, this is who FedNow can use and what it does. It's for person to person, consumer to business, consumer to government, government to consumer, business to consumer, business to business, business to government, account to account, everybody can possibly think of. So if they have this coming out, well, wouldn't that go against crypto digital assets? And why the heck did crypto pump? Because FedNow is coming out, that means everything's in a crash, right? No, that's not why people got into Bitcoin, Ethereum and everything else down the line, although they're getting a lot more Bitcoin than anything else quite honestly. It's because of this, people realize that there's a flaw in the system. I don't care if it's FedNow or if it's a CBDC, we don't trust it. And it's all a confidence game. Even Jerome Powell said that on the congressional hearings, he goes, this is a confidence game. If they have no confidence, our job is over. So Bitcoin gains amid growing investors concerned over a global banking crisis. That's why people get into Bitcoin. And me personally, I think it's just going to work like this. It's going to go FedNow to CBDC. There's going to be problems. There's too much centralization of authority and people are going to figure it out. Like they're figuring it out right now, like, hey, I need to opt out of the system. And what I'm talking about is that we had no financial advice live. Guy answered this question beautifully. I asked him, hey, are we missing something on CBDCs? Is there something that's good about it? And Guy said, well, I did this great video. And I'll link that in the description. And we talked about this in retrospect and pretty in depth. And he said, listen, people want it faster, cheaper, easier, simpler, right? That could be a CBDC. The big problem, though, is concentration of power. And the first time that this happens, this is from Lucy White, February 28th, the digital pound of CBDC could protect consumers in bank runs, which I don't know why they would say that. What that means is that this, the bank runs that we just had, the reason why we had it is because people went to the bank and go, give me my money. If they have a digital pound of CBDC, the banks or the Federal Reserve, but the reserve banks can go, no, we're just going to turn off your money, you're not going to get it. And once people realize that, which they're realizing right now, it only takes one time. It's a confidence game. They're like, wow, how do I opt out of the system? Well, there is a way to opt out of the system. It's called Bitcoin and digital assets. Now, Maxis will say it's only Bitcoin, but whatever, you get my point. So for me, I think that's the Fed now could be good. It could be good for small businesses. But as time goes on, and if it does go into CBDCs, I think inevitably all roads will lead back to digital assets. Let me know what you think about that, how far off I am. And then to finish up and talk about this thing about CBDCs and Fed now, the payment system is coming in July. This has been talked about extensively. But you have to understand that what the government wants and what it's going to get are two different things. Fed now has been seen as a potential precursor to a CBDC. Though the service could also undermine one of the key strengths of a digital dollar, the ability to transfer instantly. That's what the Fed now is going to do. So besides that, what else can a CBDC do?  I think Fed now, for instance, payments, that could be a pretty good nice it. However, Fed officials have said the agency hasn't made any decisions about a future U.S. CBDC. Maybe they could, maybe they couldn't. Power is an attractive thing. However, this is interesting. And I understand now why Circle and Jeremy O'Lair are working so hard to work with the government because they don't want to lose their opportunity. Federal officials, including Fed Chair Powell, Fed governor, or former federal government, Lail Brainerd, and then CFTC commissioner said this, we have concerns about the proliferation of certain private stablecoins. You know what a private stablecoin is? It's USDC. And I couldn't understand why Jeremy O'Lair said this, but now I get it. And he says this, moving to a full reserve dollar, digital, digital dollar, whatever currency is our best hope to insulate the internet financial system from the systemic risks embedded in the fractional reserve banking system. He is right on that. But this dollar digital or digital dollar, what is that? That's a CBDC. This is right from the White House. And they said the technical possibilities for a CBDC, a United States central bank digital currency, would be a digital form of the U.S. dollar. So digital dollar, dollar digital, same type of thing. So what Jeremy O'Lair is saying is like, look, I know that the other branches of government don't want us to have a stablecoin. So we need to work with them and become that aspect. I don't know if it's going to happen. It is a free marketplace. I see that there is value in stablecoins themselves, especially for the different parts of different countries where everything is collapsing.  Kind of tough. Can't use FedNow over there yet. But you can use crypto and digital assets. But it's interesting that Jeremy wants to go and just say, well, make us the only ones. And then lastly, just to finish up with this, I think some of the other problems with global payments and the government kind of harping on everything comes out of this, is that we're losing. The U.S. is losing. This is from Larry Fink, the BlackRock CEO. And even he wants crypto, digital assets to come through. And what this is from, this is from the annual chairman's letter to all the investors. And it's interesting, if you want to read it, I'll link in the description. But to the good stuff, the stuff that I really care about is here, digital assets. In many emerging markets, like India, Brazil and parts of Africa, we're witnessing a dramatic advance in digital payments, digital payments, bringing down costs and advancing financial inclusion. So digital payments, how could you do that? You could do with a CBDC or you could do with a stablecoin. Which one do you think the government wants? But again, even if they do that with the CBDCs from America or wherever else they do, it only takes one time of a vote of confidence for them to pull this stuff, like we just talked about, for people to go, wait a second. Okay, I've used a CBDC. They locked me out of my account. They stopped me from doing it. I can only buy certain things. And not to say that's going to happen. They're saying that's what potentially could happen. That is what will lead them back to the ability to store and use their own value through a hardware, paper, wallet, whatever you want to do. And this is what leads people back into crypto digital assets. It's not about payments. It's not about how easy it is. Well, actually, that was all easy is it really just does come down to opting out of the system to protect yourself. We don't need everybody to get out of it because not everybody's going to do it. But the majority or at least hopefully a vast minority hopefully will get it and they'll come into our space. Anyhow, let me know where I'm off there. That's how I see things. And then just to finish up, not only is Larry Fink concerned, Coinbase is concerned, they're setting up a non US trading platform to get out of the US because they're like, look, we're getting hammered by regulation. And this is what good companies do. They go, let's let's branch out. On top of that, I know people were concerned about different banks that have gone under. You've had Signature Silvergate, Silicon Valley Bank, you've had First Republic and then Credit Swiss looks like they're failing. So the question then is, especially in the United States, is like, well, who are we going to use for our crypto banks? So US crypto firms are looking to find new banking partners. They're just going to go outside the country. Stingham in Switzerland and Bank Frick in Liechtenstein said they've received an increasing number of requests to open accounts from offshore companies, including those based in the United States. I'm just going to warn everybody that you don't have to do that so quickly. Give us a little time. And this is what I said, because people were super concerned about this, about probably don't understand that all these banks are going to go out and these institutions aren't going to have a place to store their cash. And then they're just going to collapse. No, no, they're not. We just had BNY Milan, one of the oldest banks in the United States has said, we're still open for business. Fidelity just opened up everything for institutional and retail customers to trade Bitcoin. And now, even better, I think personally, is Kraken is going to launch through a US crypto bank again, free market. If you leave an opening and people see an opportunity, they'll take it. And I got a plot of Kraken for doing this. This is from Kraken's chief legal officer, Marco Santori. He states Kraken bank is very much on track to launch. We will initially be available to existing Kraken clients in the US with potential international expansion in the future. It'll be based in Wyoming. It'll offer a more seamless integration between crypto and the traditional financial system. And I was reading this and I'm like, well, that's cool. But how far along are you? Well, they state we're the first ever crypto company to be awarded a US state banking charter. It's known as a special purpose depository institution or SPD. And I think to myself, maybe this is why Jesse Powell came out and said, you know what? You don't want us to do any kind of staking? Fine. We'll give up on that. We're going to go ahead with this bank and it's going to be huge. So I think that is a net positive. And lastly, for everybody who's been staking Ethereum, good news. Ethereum developers finally set a date for the ETH withdrawals and it will be April 12th. So congratulations for everybody who's been holding on and staking. This just means that you're going to be able to unsteak and sell. Some people are very worried about this. I think this is going to collapse Ethereum. I think personally, if you are brave enough to stake your Ethereum and not know when you're going to be able to unsteak, you're probably a big believer. And that's it for today. So look, that concludes today's show. If you liked today's video, give it a thumbs up. Just consider subscribing to these things every single day. We try to make these very timely, but that's it for what we have right now. Leave a comment below. That helps us out. This is for the algorithm. Thanks so much and I'll see you guys on the next one.

My name is Sam Dutton and I am the author of Malignan's Self-Love, Narcissism Revisited. The MMPI, Minnesota Multiphasic Personality Inventory, composed by Hathaway as a psychologist and McKinley, a physician, is the outcome of decades of research into personality disorders. The revised version, the MMPI-2, was published in 1989 but was received cautiously. MMPI-2 changed the scoring method and sum of the normative data. It was therefore hard to compare MMPI-2 to its much hallowed and often validated predecessor. The MMPI-2 is made of 567 binary, true or false, items, questions. Each item requires the subject to respond, this is true or false, as applied to me. There are no correct answers. The test booklet allows the diagnostician to provide a rough assessment of the patient, the basic scales, based on the first 370 queries. It is recommended though to administer all 567 items in order to reach a much better-founded diagnosis. Based on numerous studies, the items are arranged in scales. The responses are compared to answers provided by control subjects. The scales allow the diagnostician to identify traits and mental health problems based on these comparisons. In other words, there are no answers that are typical to a paranoid or narcissistic or an anti-social patient. They are only responses that deviate from an overall statistical pattern and conform to the reaction patterns of other patients with similar scores. The nature of the deviation determines the patient's traits and tendencies but not his or her diagnosis. The interpreted outcomes of the MMPI-2 are phrased this way. The test results play subject X in this group of patients who, statistically speaking, reacted similarly. The test results also get said subject X apart from these groups of people who, statistically speaking, reacted or responded differently to subject X. The test results would never say subject X suffers from this or that mental health problem. There are three validity scales and ten clinical ones in the original MMPI-2, but other scholars derived hundreds of additional scales. For instance, to help in diagnosing personality disorders, most diagnosticians use either the MMPI-1 with the Mori-Wall-Bashfield scales in conjunction with the Wiggins' content scales or, more rarely, the MMPI-2 updated to include the Colligan-Mori Offeral Scales. The validity scales indicate whether the patient responded truthfully and accurately or was trying to manipulate the test. They pick up patterns. Some patients want to appear normal. Some patients want to appear abnormal and consistently choose what they believe are the correct answers to reflect their choices, and this kind of behavior triggers the validity scales. These are so sensitive that they can indicate whether the subject lost peace or her place on the answer sheet and was responding right away. The validity scales also alert the diagnostician to problems in reading comprehension and other inconsistencies in response patterns of the subject. The clinical scales are dimensional, though not multi-phasic as the test misleading name implied. The clinical scales measure hypochondriacids, depression, hysteria, psychopathic deviation, masculinity, femininity, paranoia, psychistemia, schizophrenia, hypomania, and social introversion. They also scale for alcoholism, post-traumatic stress disorder, and a variety of personality disorders. The interpretation of the MMPI-2 is now fully computerized. The computer is fed with the patient's sex, age, educational level, and marital status, and does the rest. Still, many scholars have criticized the scoring of the MMPI-2, and it is a hotly debated issue.


Hell yeah. What's up guys? This is Chris Pipe. My friends call me Banksy.

This is FDA Patient Safety News. In this edition, a new drug to treat adults with diabetes, a warning on using gabatril in patients who don't have epilepsy, patient injuries from certain enclosed beds, and avoiding fenergan in children under two. These stories and more on this edition of FDA Patient Safety News. Welcome to the program. For the U.S. Food and Drug Administration, I'm Mark Barnett. And I'm Anita Rainer. Let's start with a medical product FDA recently approved. FDA recently approved a new injectable drug to help control blood sugar in adult patients with type 1 and type 2 diabetes. It's called simlin or premlin-tide acetate, and it's manufactured by amylin pharmaceuticals. Simlin is used in addition to insulin to help reduce post-prandial blood sugar levels in patients who can't achieve adequate control despite optimal insulin therapy. Tighter control of blood sugar may help to reduce the risk of long-term renal and cardiovascular and ocular events in these patients. Now patients with type 2 diabetes already have drugs other than insulin to help control their blood sugar. That's right. For patients with type 1, however, simlin will be the only therapy in addition to insulin that is available. But FDA and the manufacturer do have some safety concerns about this drug. They do, and they're mainly concerned with the way the drug is going to be used and prescribed. The first concern is that the drug may increase the risk of hypoglycemia. This risk is greatest in type 1 diabetics and in those with gastroparesis. The second concern is that patients might mix simlin with insulin in the same syringe, and that can alter the activity of the insulin. And the third concern is that the drug might be used inappropriately in patient populations where the risk-benefit profile hasn't been established. So it sounds like educating prescribers and patients is key to reducing the risk. It is, and that's why the FDA is going to require that a medication guide be distributed with each prescription of simlin to the patient, explaining how the drug is to be used and the possible risks involved. The labeling for physicians is going to specify that simlin is not to be used in patients with gastroparesis or those allergic to any of the drug's ingredients. HeartSign Technologies is recalling some of its Samaritan automatic external defibrillators. The affected devices may shut down before delivering a shock, which could delay treatment or even lead to death of a viable patient. We've received several user complaints that the device shut down during an attempted charge, but no injuries have been reported to date. This recall includes models SAM001, 002, and 003 with certain serial numbers within the range of 1270 to 2324. The HeartSign Samaritan PAD automatic external defibrillator is not affected by this recall. HeartSign Technologies notified its distributors and customers by letter on February 14, 2005, and the company is providing a software upgrade for the affected devices. If you have a device within this serial number range but have not yet received an upgrade kit, you should contact the company as soon as possible to see if your product is affected and to get the kit. Go to our website for details on how to contact the company. FDA is requiring that a new bolded warning be added to the labeling for gabatril or tyagobine, an anti-epileptic drug that's approved as adjunctive therapy in treating partial seizures. The warning is being issued because of reports that gabatril has been associated with seizures in more than 30 patients who received it for conditions other than epilepsy. Now, you just said conditions other than epilepsy, but gabatril is only approved for treating epilepsy. Well, that's right, but in fact, gabatril has been used off-label for treating other conditions, mainly psychiatric conditions and also for chronic pain, and it's in those conditions where these seizures have occurred. Well, this seems like it could be a little confusing. Here we have a drug that's intended to control seizures in patients with epilepsy, but when it's used in other patients, it might actually be causing seizures. It is confusing. In fact, the FDA advisory notes that some physicians have actually increased the dose of gabatril when they've observed seizures in their patients without epilepsy, taking the drug. They presumably did this because they weren't aware that it was the gabatril that might be causing the seizures and they may have thought that since the drug is an anti-epileptic, it might actually control the seizures in these other patients. It sounds like this is a case where informing the practitioners is really key to the solution. It is a key, and in fact, the manufacturer has agreed to play an active role in doing that. In addition to changing the labeling, they've agreed to undertake an educational campaign for both physicians and patients, making people aware of the risks and discouraging off-label use. So what's the bottom line for practitioners here? The bottom line for practitioners is to understand that using gabatril for conditions other than epilepsy constitutes an off-label use. And what that means is that FDA has not approved the drug for these other uses. The FDA advisory says that if a practitioner does decide to use a drug off-label, the risk of seizures should be explained to the patient. There's a warning about certain enclosed beds that could be hazardous to patients. They're made by Veil Products, Incorporated of Toledo, Ohio. On March 22nd, the FDA and the Justice Department initiated a seizure of all Veil Model 500, 1,000 and 2,000 enclosed bed systems because patients can become entrapped in the beds and suffocate. These canopy-like padded beds are used for at-risk patients with cognitive impairment, unpredictable behavior, spasms, seizures, and other disorders. They're advertised as an alternative to using a physical restraint or medication to reduce falls and prevent wandering. About 30 adverse events, including at least seven deaths, have occurred from entrapments, falls, and other incidents with these beds. More than half of these events involve children age 16 and under. FDA recommends that hospitals, nursing homes, and consumers who have a Veil enclosed bed system stop using it immediately and move the patient to an alternate bed. If the only option for the patient is to continue using the Veil bed, FDA currently recommends that users follow these safety precautions that are recommended by Veil. First, use only the mattress recommended by the company. Always leave the side rails in the up position except when moving the patient from the bed. And if the bed has a high-low feature that raises and lowers the entire bed surface, never leave the feature in the high position when the patient is unattended because the patient can become entrapped. The company may take additional steps to address these safety issues, check our website for additional information, and for updates as they become available. FDA recently provided health care practitioners and patients with updated information about the risks and benefits of Crestor or Rasuvastatin calcium, a cholesterol-lowering drug made by AstraZeneca Pharmaceuticals. Crestor, like all other statins, has been associated with rhabdomyolysis. The incidence of this effect is low and the risk of serious muscle damage doesn't appear to be greater for Crestor than for other statins. But as with all statins, the risk of myopathy increases with higher drug levels. So Crestor's labeling has been changed to re-emphasize the risk of myopathy, particularly at the highest-approved dose of 40 milligrams. The labeling also stresses the need to consider using lower starting doses in some patients. This may be particularly important when treating Asian Americans since a large pharmacokinetic study found that this group of patients had drug levels about twice as high as a Caucasian control group, and that could increase their risk for myopathy. The revised labeling now recommends that the 5 milligram dose of Crestor be considered as the starting dose for Asian Americans and also for others with predisposing factors for myopathy, including patients on cyclosporine and those with severe renal insufficiency. FDA recently issued a public health advisory describing reports of sudden unexplained death in children taking Adderall and Adderall XR, which are used to treat ADHD. Sudden death has been reported in children with underlying cardiac abnormalities who are taking recommended doses of amphetamines, including Adderall and Adderall XR. A very small number of cases of sudden death have been reported in children without cardiac abnormalities who are taking Adderall. At this time, it doesn't appear that the number of sudden deaths that are taking Adderall is greater than the number that would be expected in this population without treatment, but it's possible that patients with underlying heart defects might be especially at risk, and so the advisory re-emphasizes the warning in the product labeling that these patients should ordinarily not be treated with Adderall products. FDA recently advised healthcare professionals and patients about a potential cancer risk of two topical immunosuppressant products that are used to treat atopic dermatitis, or eczema. The drugs are eladil, or pemicrolimus, and protopic, or tachrolimus. The advisory cautioned that these products should only be used as directed, and only after other eczema treatments have failed. FDA is also adding a boxed warning to the labeling for these two products and developing a medication guide for patients. The concern about possible cancer risk is based on information from animal studies, on case reports, and a small number of patients, and on the drug's mechanism of action. Long-term human studies may be needed to determine whether eladil or protopic pose a cancer risk in humans and the extent of the risk, if any. In the meantime, FDA has several recommendations to help to minimize the risk. First, use eladil and protopic only as second-line agents for treatment of eczema in patients who have failed or can't tolerate other prescription treatments. Use eladil and protopic only for short periods of time, not continuously. The long-term safety of these drugs is not known. Use the minimum amount of eladil or protopic needed to control the patient's signs and symptoms. In animals, increasing the dose resulted in higher rates of cancer. Don't use these drugs in children and adults with a weakened or compromised immune system. And finally, avoid using these drugs in children younger than two years of age. Eladil and protopic are not approved for this use, and the effect of these drugs on the developing immune system in infants and children is not known. The FDA and Wyeth have notified healthcare professionals that Fenergan tablets and suppositories are contraindicated in children under the age of two because the drug could cause fatal respiratory depression. The labeling also warns practitioners to be cautious when using Fenergan in older children. It notes that respiratory depression can also occur in this age group even when the dose has been calculated according to the child's weight. The risk is increased when Fenergan is used concomitantly with other drugs that may cause respiratory depression. The labeling goes on to remind practitioners that anti-imidics such as Fenergan are not recommended for treating uncomplicated vomiting in children. Another reason to avoid using Fenergan in children is that it can cause extra-parimidal symptoms that can be mistaken for the CNS signs of diseases such as encephalopathy or RISE syndrome. FDA recently finalized a new rule that's designed to increase the safety of human cells, tissues, and cellular and tissue-based products that are used for transplantation. The rule requires that manufacturers of these products recover, process, store, label, package, and distribute them in a way that prevents the spread of communicable diseases. You said manufacturer, but that's hard to reconcile with the idea of donated human tissue. Well, the FDA uses the word manufacturer as a sort of umbrella term that encompasses the wide variety of different actions an establishment might take to prepare these products for use. And many different types of establishments may be involved in the various steps from recovery, donor screening, and testing to storage and distribution. If an establishment is involved in any of the steps covered by the new regulation, FDA calls it a manufacturer. So what products are actually covered by the new rule? Well, the new regulations apply to a broad range of products. They include bone, ligaments, skin, corneas, and hematopoietic stem cells. They also apply to human heart valve and human dura mater allografts. Now, weren't human cells and tissues regulated before this? There were some regulations that were in place to help assure the safety of these products, but the new rules apply to a broader range of products and they're more comprehensive. What's the bottom line in all this for the healthcare practitioner? The new requirements will help assure that the tissue and cellular products they use are the safest available. If you use these products, you can help us monitor their safety by reporting any serious or life-threatening adverse reactions in your patients. You can find out how to report on our website. Well, that's all for this edition of FDA Patient Safety News. Remember, you can get more information on all the stories you've seen here today by visiting our website.
