Okay Bill, thank you so much for joining us on This is Purdue. We are so excited we're here at Culver Academies in Culver, Indiana. We did a little field trip to come to you. So tell us what, you know, the first time you heard about Purdue, what was your first impression of Purdue? I heard about Purdue pretty early on. My mom is a Purdue alumni and it was the only place that I ever really thought that I was going to end up going and that happened to be the case for me. So in high school I think was when I actually first heard about it. In more detail where I was actually curious about going to college I hadn't really thought about it much until you get to high school.  Yes. And you know Purdue has of course a great school for many things but there's a small percentage of teachers that go there. What made you kind of want to go to Purdue and get into teaching? I didn't go to Purdue starting out in education. Okay. So maybe we'll go back to that. Sure. I originally, now my memory could be fading. Lots of things fade as you get older. But I have my memory is that I got accepted to Purdue into the engineering school the end of my junior year. Okay. Which blows kids today their mind because senior year is all about stress applying to school, getting into school, not getting into school, that sort of thing. But I remember my senior year was like, I'm going to Purdue. I'm going to Purdue, I'm going to the school of engineering. I loved chemistry. I loved science. I was going into chemical engineering. That was my path. I was going to take that and run with it. I got to Purdue. I enrolled in chemistry classes and some engineering classes and programming classes. And my mind changed a little bit not not with the chemistry bit but I think with the engineering bit. So I'm like, I know I still want to go into science but not so much engineering. So I went into food science for a semester thinking that, oh, that might be fun to kind of work with science related to how we develop foods and that sort of thing. And then I had a mission strip that I got to go on. I went to a mission strip in Louisiana and I got to work with some first grade kids. Never had I ever thought about teaching kids or what it would be like if I'd enjoy it. But I loved it. I loved it. I was there for like three or four days, worked with these kids and I remember them. I was teaching them like simple things about shapes, colors, that kind of stuff. And they all just kind of hugged me afterwards. And I remember thinking, okay, this is a lot of fun. I enjoy this. And then I went back and I changed my major to chemistry education. Never looked back. Never looked back. I got to do what I loved is just chemistry. And another thing I didn't know I loved until I actually got immersed in it, which is teaching others. And so was your first job right out of Purdue teaching chemistry? It was yeah, I finished my student teaching at Central Catholic in Lafayette, which was an experience in itself. And I got hired in Chicago Public School. So I taught on the west side of Chicago for four years at Roberto Clemente Community Academy. I'm very different situations from where I'm teaching now. In my classes here we have about 16 kids at the most. My first class at Roberto Clemente was 38 kids and we had 32 seats in the classroom. So it was kind of a trial by fire of learning how to give these kids an experience that's meaningful in the lab, especially with science and chemistry, you want to have a hands on experience. That becomes very difficult when you feel like you're packed into a classroom. But I love that experience. And every I think every teaching experience I've had is has taught me something different about the kind of educator that I am and how I like to engage with students. Okay, so partly why we're here and excited to talk to you is because you're a TikTok superstar. How it's like explained to our listeners how your TikTok got started, you were telling me a little bit beforehand. But tell us in 2019 the story behind this empire that you built. It doesn't feel like an empire. I know that everyone says you know your TikTok famous. It doesn't feel that way. I still feel like the normal person that I've always been or normal I guess is kind of subjective. But I feel like me. Sure. It happened. I was just doing what I normally do. So classes here we teach chemistry for a semester long. So I've got eight weeks, 16 weeks to kind of really deal with these kids and teach them some semblance of chemistry and give them lots of experiences that will lead them down the path of more science or less science or at least oh I had that science experience. I like to do demos demonstrations and we'll do some today. I'm looking forward to doing those. But one of the ones that we're going to do today was the one that I always start the class off with. And one of the girls in class is like, Hey, Mr. Cook, you should make a TikTok of this. TikTok was to me completely new. I had never heard of it. So I'm like I have no idea what TikTok is, but I'll make an account. So I humored her, made an account on my phone really quick.  We have to do this a certain way just behind the glass shield. Boom. I'll give you my camera. You shoot it. We'll go from there. So we did the demo. She shot the footage. She's like, Hey, you need to have a song for this. I'm like, I know what song to choose. So she chose a song and she posted it. And I'm like, is it posted? She's like, Hey, I've posted. I'm like, Okay, great. Let's go back to learning chemistry. And we did left for the weekend and came back on Monday. Had five or 6,000 followers. The video had been seen, I think 15, 25,000 times, which for me was huge. Yeah. It was very weird. I expected nothing. I expected absolutely nothing. I had made some YouTube videos for years, more tutorial kind of stuff. I had maybe a couple hundred subscribers. It was a very surreal feeling. All right. So we're in the lab. We're going to do a couple experiments together. Okay. The first one that I'd like to have you participate with me in is the first one that I show my students in chemistry. And it involves this white chemical. It's called potassium chloride. We're going to put a little bit of it in this test tube, and then I'm going to melt it. And I've already talked to you about what your role is. Your role is to handle everyone's favorite candy corn. All right. I'm going to do this. I'm going to go around back. I can't get a good angle because I'm right handed. We don't need very much. This always takes a minute. The least exciting part of the demonstration. So if there were like students in the class, I'd be saying, what do you think's happening right now? So what do you think's happening right now? So we're heating up this powder. Yeah. And it looks like it's fizzing. It does. It is bubbling a little bit. Okay. And why is it bubbling like that? There's a lot of oxygen in this chemical. So we're actually causing a little bit of it to decompose, but we're also melting it and getting it into a nice little molten state. The byproduct of that is some of it starts to break down and release oxygen. And that's actually something important that we want. Okay. We want that oxygen because it's going to react with what you're about to add to it. I just need to get all of this nice and molten before you can do that. So when I have molten made everything molten, I want you to take a piece of candy corn and just chuck it right in there. Okay. Okay. Ready? I'm ready. Let me turn this, let me turn this bunch of mirror off and get it out of the way. You ready for me? I'm ready whenever, whenever you're ready. Okay. Candy. There was a rapid oxidation and reduction. So basically you've converted that candy corn pretty much into carbon. You can see the carbon right there. You won't want to touch it. It's very, very hot. Okay. That carbon was once in the sugar molecules that made up that candy corn. Did you notice the color of the flame? Yes. What color did you, did you notice? It was this orange of the candy corn, right? No, it wasn't orange. Was it? Did you guys see it? It was pink. It was like a pinkish color. Okay. There was some hints of orange. I'll give you that, but it wasn't because of the candy corn. It was because of the potassium in the white powder that I started with. Ah. So that color, that flame color is characteristic of potassium. If we had done this with a different version of potassium chloride, or addition kind of chloride, like sodium chloride, it would have been yellow. So we could make the flame color be whatever we wanted. Okay. Okay. Anyway. Amazing. We use this in chemistry to talk about chemical change and what kind of evidence we see that something's changed. That's awesome. I loved it. Even though I got the flame color wrong. It doesn't matter. It's fine. How do you think Purdue prepared you to be a teacher? I had Professor Mary Nockley for my senior kind of, I don't know if it's called practicum, but the classes I took right before I did my student teaching. And she had us do all kinds of things to help us kind of get in the mindset of how do you think like a kid? How do you think about what a kid's going to do in a lab situation? Because this was specifically for science education majors. We were all chemistry teachers or going to be chemistry teachers. And the idea was she would say, okay, Phil, next Thursday, that's your spot. You're going to plan an activity. We're going to do it. You have X amount of time. And then behind your back, she would give roles to everybody. So there would be people who are like, you're the distractor, you know, you're the person who just had a really hard night and didn't get any sleep. And so everyone had a role to play. And you would be thinking kind of macerating on these ideas like, Oh, what am I going to do to this poor sap when they try and deliver their lesson? It didn't make it perfectly authentic, but it definitely made you respond and react in real ways. And I value that stuff that's going to happen as your teaching, right? Yes, it was as immersive as you could have been without just bringing high schoolers in and doing a lab with them. With no teaching experience, which I would not recommend. You want to think through those things. Did you have any favorite memories at Purdue as a student? Any favorite classes? I had so many chemistry classes that I've really enjoyed. I wish I remember the name of my physical chemistry professor, but he was a Buddhist and he brought Buddhism in all the time in his lectures. And I appreciated that so much because physical chemistry to me from what I remember was all solving Schrodinger waveform equations. Basically, where would electrons likely be if they had a certain energy? There's a lot of math for me. Didn't really see it being something that I would be needing in my profession later on. Any other memories from Purdue like friends, dorms, something that sticks out to you? I feel like I had a strange experience at Purdue that's maybe I'll tell it to you and you can make the decision whether to keep it to leave it in or cut it. So when I had an experience, it was pretty typical at my first couple of years. I lived in the dorms. I lived in Shreve Hall. And then I rushed Delta Sigma Phi, moved in the following year, stayed in the dorm or in the fraternity for a year. And then after my whole kind of mission trip thing, I moved into the church, the university church. At the time there was a pastor there who would give you a free room. You just had to kind of help out around the church. So I did that. I took advantage of that. My parents loved it. And I can remember, I'm going to tell you this, I can remember buddies, we would at the time, GoldenEye was really big on PlayStation. So we would go into the chapel, set up the projector and play GoldenEye in the university church chapel. I hope that doesn't get me in trouble. It's been years. It's past the statute of limitations, right? So that was, but it was kind of a strange thing because really unique story. Well, people living in a church, I think is most people would think is kind of strange. But anyways, I loved it. I had a great experience with it kind of allowed me to have a little bit more freedom. Yeah. Within the fraternity, I felt like there's a lot of my fraternity brothers and all that kind of stuff, but I needed a little quiet sometimes. Yeah. And then you probably saved a lot of money. I did. And I got to interact with people because we would have, there was just people who'd randomly come in and I would do my best to lock those doors, but people would find their way in. And so navigating that late at night was an interesting challenge. Yeah. I enjoyed it though. Do you have any specific stories of, you know, students saying, wow, Mr. Cook, this experiment that you did really impacted me and now I want to go, you know, major in this or do this. Do you have any kind of things that you look back on and really impacted you as a teacher? I know there's kids that I'm still in contact with that they said that science up until chemistry, they never felt like they were a science person. That's a pretty common experience. And my response to them is always, you don't have to be a science person. You just have to recognize that we can all be better at what we want to do. And even if we're in a class that may not feel like a strength for us, we can always work harder and get better. And that's all I'm going to ask for you in this class. And I think that mentality resonated with a lot of kids who may have had a bad experience in previous science classes. There are a couple kids that are now in their mid 30s that came, I was invited on the Today Show to talk about kind of the whole TikTok social media stuff. And I messaged a few of my former kids, former students, I shouldn't call them kids or adults now, they have kids of their own. But former students and one was from Oak Park and she said, I had taken chemistry once and I had to drop it because it was such a bad experience. And then I had your class and you just helped me to see that I can do it. I just need to work hard. And those kind of mentality that you build into kids is resilience. That kind of stands out as a common trait from the kids I've spoken to that have been in my class over the years. I know I always was like, I like reading and writing. I am not good at science and math. And I don't even think that that was the case. That was just something in my head because I excelled at something else. That doesn't mean I was like bad at chemistry or so that's a great mentality. Well, sometimes you don't have the experience where you're like, oh, I haven't really had the opportunity to see that I like. Yes. Because sometimes the classes can be taught in multiple ways. If you have a certain experience, then you might be like, this is what science is, pass. And maybe you have an English class where you're like, this is great. My eyes have been opened. Sure. This literature is just speaking to me. Well, science can be the same way. Yeah, absolutely. Okay. So how did you come up or, you know, mold your teaching kind of path to be so hands-on? I guess. I think you, no, it makes sense because I think you just learn what works well. And for me, what was formative was having classes where there were a lot of kids, a huge spread of skills. And I have to engage them, help move them forward at least a little bit. And how do I go about doing that? Well, one way that you can do that is you can get their hands on something. You can get them involved in something. You can set little goal posts along the way within the lab work that they're doing, so that everyone feels a little bit of success. And you can kind of start to tune it to their skill levels.  And then you might, you know, take a couple steps back with some other kids who might need the time to really process or some extra one-on-one attention. That honestly comes with time. I was an awful teacher my first year. I think a lot of that's a pretty common refrain if you talk to teachers.  Labs were saving for me because it was something that I got geeked out about. And when you get nerdy about something, your kids, even if they're your students, even if they're not into the class, they can't help but be into the activity. So then where did it grow from there? Were you like? I'm just like, I'm going to keep doing this. I have to keep doing this. Plus, I really love it. I really love thinking about ways that I can get a little nugget. Science that I can pass out there into that little 30 second, 45 second video that I make. So that for me is a lot of fun. Like how can I communicate differently or in a way that's going to engage an audience that might be difficult to engage otherwise? And I just, I find things. My wife finds things. My kids find things. Like, oh, you should do a video on this. You should do a video on that. And so I make a list and then we just go through and make them as time allows. Okay. So how, how many hours are we talking here and how much easier did it get as you kept? It got harder. It gets, it gets so much harder as you go.  Like I would make a video, do a demonstration, wouldn't do voiceover. There wasn't even the option to do voiceover at the time.  But if you're doing a chemical demonstration, you have to prep the reagents, clean the glassware, do all this stuff over and over again. So you, you try to choose the things that you had a lot of experience doing that were visually engaging and you know that you could do on one take. So they would take me maybe, I don't know, 30 minutes from shooting to post 30 minutes. Now they take me 12 hours, 12 hours for a 30 second video. That's easy. That's kind of like planning, ordering the chemicals, getting everything approved, making sure that, you know, there's no hazardous waste that I have to deal with, getting the shots that I want, cutting the footage, realizing I don't have the shot that I want, reshooting, getting the lighting right, which, you know, you guys have quite the setup, but I just deal with a little like little flashlights they seem like compared to what you guys have. Yeah, there's a lot that goes into it. And you're balancing this being a full-time teacher. Yeah, I work nights and weekends. My nights and weekends is kind of when I do all of this work. Do you have a favorite experiment or video that you've done that really sticks out to you? I love all the videos that I've done. One that I think is particularly super interesting to me was one I made last year and I just happened upon it. I don't remember how. I just randomly reading stuff online and I did a search on, I think I did a search on potassium permanganate. Normal stuff, right?    So you're burning the fuel out of the way ahead of or behind a fire line so that it can't go any further. You basically stop it in its tracks. Some of these places are very remote and it's difficult to have firefighters use. It's called a drip pack. It's kind of like a big backpack filled with gasoline and they just kind of use a drip torch and they start a fire line that way. But in mountainous regions, you can't do that. So instead, they turn to chemistry and they take these, could you not?  They get injected with a second reactant that starts, there's a chain reaction, you can't stop it once it gets going. They drop them out of the helicopter. They hit the ground into the dry brush. They ignite and then they start the fire line that way.  See, this is interesting stuff though to people that. Because I never, how would you ever think that, oh, let's, who invented that machine? Who invented the machine? You know what we need? We need a ping pong ball machine that makes fiery flaming ping pong balls for firefighting. Never would have thought of that. I'm picturing like the machine that runs the tennis balls. It's a lot like that. It has a hopper. It has a hopper and then it kind of goes through, I bet a Purdue engineer built it, honestly. I bet it was Purdue engineering. So it was a hopper of the balls that had the permanganate in them.  Yeah. And then it just goes, boom. And interesting thing, because I'm like, well, what happens if the whole thing catches on fire in the helicopter? That's a bad situation. It's on rails. It's on rails. So if it catches on fire, you just chuck the whole thing out the helicopter, which I thought was again, who thinks of these things? But I bet the helicopter pilot is glad that those safety precautions are there. That's awesome. Okay.   Oh, no. No. Life goes on like normal. It is not, I think people have pictures in their heads of what they think social media fame is. It's not that, at least in my experience, it's not that. Maybe if I lived in a bigger town, it would feel more that way. I've never, very rarely had people. I've had some people, but very rarely. How special do you feel when people stop you? I feel extremely awkward every single time. Awkwardness level 1000. It's like, oh, thank you. I appreciate it, because I really do. I appreciate that they follow and they like the content, but it's also like, I don't know how to, I don't know how to take it. I don't know how to take it. I appreciate it on every level, but I don't know how to take it. Okay. Okay. That's fair enough. How do you think that promoting STEM and getting students interested in STEM, like should other teachers kind of take a page from your book and think about TikTok or other social media tactics to get people interested? I want to. I think that if you enjoy doing it, I would never do this if I didn't enjoy it. And for me, the value add is not only do I get to do something that I love, I also get to get other people exposed to things they may not have thought about. So many people comment on the videos that I've made over the years that I've never really thought about chemistry since 20 years, but now you've got me thinking about it again and how interesting it actually can be. Right. And from that perspective, that's why you want to get kids involved in science. Period. So STEM, of course, we want kids involved in science, technology, engineering, and math. We want them to go into those fields. We have a high need for talented and skilled workers like that. So of course, if you want to make content like that, absolutely, you should do it. Do you think that social media, there's a lot of negativity sometimes with young kids and students, but do you see maybe some forms of social media helping to get them interested in STEM? I mean, you're doing that. I think it's about moderation, honestly, because the apps themselves are designed to keep your eyes on them. That's why there's notifications. That's why when you're on TikTok and somebody likes your video, it pops down from the video. It's taking your attention away. And for an adult, it's easy to recognize. So this is vying for my attention. It wants to give me a dopamine hit for me engaging in that and going back and seeing who liked it and what video did they like. As an adult, it's pretty easy to see that. Kids don't really have that mechanism yet. So I think we have to be very deliberate about saying you can be on social media after a certain age and for a certain amount of time. There's very negative things associated with social media. You have to kind of train students to use it appropriately, which takes time and effort and consistency. Yes, absolutely. So you've partnered with some major companies, PepsiCo, Benefit Cosmetics, which I'm very interested in. What was that like?  They all just email me for the most part. They just reach out by email and we talk and see if we can find something that aligns with my values and everything needs to have a science bent to it. Everything needs to have a little nugget of truth and bring the conversation of science into the forefront. And it has to be a brand I can get behind and feel good about. So for Benefit, I'd never done, I don't wear a mascara, but it was intriguing because it was magnetic and they used like really tiny kind of ferromagnetic particles. I thought that was cool. So I came up with a video idea for them and pitched it and it worked out that way. With Pepsi, it was about recycling and sustainability is important to me, so I could get behind that because we throw away a lot of plastic and a lot of the plastic does not get recycled. So if I could do something to help that, I'm going to do that. That's awesome. I saw one of your latest things was about lip gloss and how there's bugs in it. Coach and Neil bugs. Yeah, I have some in the back if you want to see them. They don't look like bugs. They're dried. They're dried. Yeah, but there probably is red lipsticks. Yeah, anything that's got red probably has carmin in it. Yeah, ground up a little bug. It's fine. Now are your students... It's an imitation crab meat too. I stopped eating that because I was nervous about... But if you have sushi and you're not sure about that California roll, you might want to check the ingredients. If it says Coach and Neil extract, that's bug juice. It's like, I mean, I shouldn't say it that way. That's not really true. The bugs are sterilized, right? They grind them up into a fine powder. You extract the dye, the carminic acid in water. So basically you're just using the bug as a source of an organic dye. That's all. How involved are your students? He does. I don't think you're buying it. I'm like, what is on my lips right now? Okay, Phil. It's almost Halloween. We've got a pumpkin. Tell us what you're about to do next. I'm going to do a little demonstration called the self-carving pumpkin. Self-carving pumpkin is a chemistry demonstration that should not be tried anywhere by anyone other than a trained professional ever. And you'll see why very shortly. So we've got a pumpkin, which I've got an outline of the face pieces. I've actually cut them already. That's important to know. They've been cut already. There's no magic, no trickery here. And inside I'm going to put a little bit of this stuff. I can already smell it. Yeah. What does it smell like? Bad, right? Yeah. Awful. Very sulfur-y. It's calcium carbide. We're just going to measure out a very precise amount. I'm just kidding. Okay, that should be enough. Okay, now you said this is going to be... This is very loud. Very loud. Okay. This is going to be very loud. So I'm going to be wearing hearing protection because I'm going to be so close. Okay. Because when you're this close, because literally I'm going to do this. Got a little lighter from the back that will go in the back of the pumpkin and something will happen. Okay. This is my cue to step out. So when I do the countdown then you just... Okay. Distance yourself a little bit. Okay. We start the reaction with a little bit of water. I'm just going to use distilled water here. And it's perfectly safe. I want you to just kind of peer in and tell me what you see when I add the water. Ready? Oh, it's fizzing. It's bubbling. There's a little smoke. Yeah. There's a lot of... There's some gas being produced. Okay. Now you want to step back. Okay. And we're going to let this reaction go for a little bit. Yeah, you can smell it. Yep. And you might see the eyes kind of releasing a little bit of gas. I'm going to put on my hearing protection. I think we're ready. Okay. Here we go. In three, two, one. I told you it was loud. Oh my gosh. I actually didn't think it was that loud. I didn't know it was going to... It's still on fire. That's really cool. Yeah.  So we should let it go for a little bit. Okay. Oh my gosh. That was cool. How involved are your students in helping you make these videos? Do they enjoy coming to class or do you kind of keep them out? I keep that very separate. Honestly, there are occasions where I'll film and I'll be like, okay, we're going to film. They're like, oh, it's going to be TikTok. Is it going to be TikTok? I'm like, maybe, maybe. Why don't you just not worry about that and just enjoy the experience? Right. And what I found is it tends to be more of a distraction. I want the kids to focus on the science. And if they see a GoPro setup here or a camera setup somewhere else that they know, they just have their spidey senses tingling because of it. And they're like, oh, TikTok, and they just change. They don't act the same way. They're not as curious sounding because they're all like, they want to be in the moment. They want to be captured. So you have to keep it separate. Yeah, I tend to keep it separate. Do you ever think of ideas through? Oh yeah. Yeah. Kids come up with the greatest ideas. They're like, what would happen if, you know, those kinds of situations. Do you ever try that? Yeah, I'm like, oh, I can try it. Or oh, no, that's not safe at all. Okay. Yeah. Kids are great at that. Especially when you tell them I love that you ask me questions. I love that you, you know, if you want to try an experiment in class, the mantra is have me approve it first. Right. And if I say it's okay, then you can do it. But only in the way that we approve. Because I don't want them, I don't want their curiosity to be squashed. Okay. So you've said that your students think it's like a really cool flex that you're on TikTok? Yeah, I don't know. Some of them maybe, some of them probably think it's nerdy.  Right, right. What are your, what are your, what is your family? What do your friends think about it? I know my parents are very proud of me. Very, very proud of me. My dad thinks it's like, oh, I saw that video of yours. Are they on TikTok to watch your videos? I'm sure they do, but I put it on all those platforms. They tend to use Facebook and maybe Instagram more. I think probably Facebook the most. Sure. They checked Instagram and they get on TikTok, I think, mainly to watch the videos that I make. I think that's the case. Who knows? Maybe they're big TikTokers now. Maybe they're big into it. I've told them they're potters. They're retired now and they do pottery together with the cutest couple you've ever seen. And they'll be in the pottery studio. They're like, you need to make a TikTok on how ceramic glazes work. I'm like, dad, I'll get to it. I'll get to it. That would be cool. Yeah, right. Your dad's even giving you it. Well, I don't know if you've ever seen glazes, like ceramic glazes. Have you seen them before? Not in maybe like fifth grade. They look like mud. So you dip the pot in this liquid that looks like mud, then you fire it at several thousand degrees and it just becomes this brilliant, brilliant color. Just like reductive reactions, oxidative reactions. You're controlling chemistry through the temperature of the flame and the mixture of the components in the glaze. I think that's super nerdy. And my dad thinks that's super nerdy. He also didn't realize that he doesn't understand it. So he's like, you should make a video on this. And he gave me a book on the science of glazes. And I'm like, thanks, dad. And I wish I could say I've cracked it, but I haven't cracked that one open just yet. You're kind of busy. Yeah. But I do want to do it because I think that everybody's idea deserves to be explored. What advice would you give college students now, Purdue students, looking back at your time at Purdue?  Don't feel like you have to know exactly where your path is going to lead you right now. I feel like there's a lot of pressure to be like, oh, I'm going to college. I have to know. Right. It has to be the perfect college for me.  Sometimes you just don't know and that's okay. And the perfect first job. Exactly right. That does not exist. Yeah, exactly right. There is no perfect first job. There are jobs that will teach you so much that you'll be like, I'm so glad I had that experience, even though I hated it at the time, because it helped make me a better teacher or a better engineer or a better mathematician, whatever the case may be. All these experiences build us in a certain way. So yeah, don't feel like you're locked in. You can always change your mind. You can always change that career path. I'm from the school of engineering to food science, which I don't remember what school that's in, but then back to chemistry and education. So looking back to, what would you say that, that Purdue community and that Boilermaker sense of spirit? You know, you had a bit untraditional path, but what did that mean to you today, looking back? My fondest memories are kind of working with all the other students that were in the chemistry program. We would like huddle up together because the problem sets were intense. We were all in the same class together. The struggle was very real for a lot of these classes, and you just build a lot of camaraderie because you know, I'm going to be in the class with this person. I'm going to be in the class with this person, and I know they're really helpful, and I know they're willing to share their notes, or I know that I can give them my notes if they need to be gone for a day. And that kind of family that you build within the school of education or school of science, honestly, for me was really, really a good memory for Purdue. That's awesome. When you teach these students now, are you a proud boiler maker? Are you trying to sway anymore? Absolutely, absolutely. No, I always try and get kids involved in engineering. I'm like, oh, you'd be a great engineer if you ever thought about engineering. And we offer engineering courses here at Culver. So especially the girls, I see these girls are like phenomenal thinkers. Yeah. You should be an engineer. Have you signed up for engineering? Try it. You might like it. And of course, they asked me where I went to school, and I'm like, Purdue, what was Purdue like? So we go through the whole story. I tell them what my experience was like. Right. And I say, you know, this is a great school. It's a phenomenal school if you're, especially if you're in state, you're not going to get a better value. Absolutely, I completely agree. What makes Purdue unique in your eyes when you're telling your students your experience and how great? For me, the professors stood out. I had the greatest chemistry professors. I feel like I got super lucky with the professors that I had. Professor Bodner, Professor Knackley, Professor Nagishi. All of those people I can say, they taught me chemistry. And I remember Professor Nagishi being like excited. And this was like a low-level chemistry class.  He's teaching us. He's teaching us kind of like this low-level chemistry, but he was excited about it. And that's the kind of stuff that spoke to me. I had a lot of professors like that who just were like, this is how it applies to your life. This is how you're actually going to use it. This is why you should care about it. Right. And I think regardless of subject matter, those kind of people will motivate you to do your best. And at Purdue, I just happened to have a great string of chemistry professors. Do you have any stories teaching, you know, looking back that are really heartfelt or anything you want to share with the listeners on that front? As a teacher, it's always really rewarding to come across a student that you haven't seen for a while. And they're just like, they just recant these stories that they remember that stand out that are very vivid for them about when they were a part of your class, that they never, you wouldn't have thought was meaningful. You didn't think it was impactful at all, but it clearly had an impact. Case in point, I was, my wife and I, we were married at the time, but we were on the way to that. We went to Rome, went to Italy, and we were just walking around the streets in Rome, these little narrow streets. And all of a sudden I hear, Mr. Cook, Mr. Cook. I turned around and I ran into one of my students. Oh my God. And she was in residency studying medicine. And she just gave me a hug and she told me her dad was with her. And she's like, oh, this is great. This is the greatest experience ever, your chemistry class. I remember AP Chemistry and how you let us try a demonstration that we had to come up with and teach it to little kids. Like that was the best experience. And so then we went on and talked and talked for a little bit. But yeah, when you think you won't run into a kid, go to Italy. And then randomly you'll run into one of your former students from like 10 years ago. That's awesome. That's a great story. Let's see. Is there anything else I'm missing about TikTok fame? TikTok fame is overrated, I think. If you're going to share content on TikTok, just be yourself. It's very easy for people to say be yourself when they perceive you as having like a big following. But you just got to be yourself. That's what you'll find in audience. The algorithm knows. Yes, the algorithm knows when you're not being authentic. Yes. All right, rapid fire. Phil, are you ready? I'm intimidated. I'm not an intimidating person. You say that.  Ready, go. Okay, you could attend anywhere, why Purdue? If I could attend anywhere, why Purdue? No, you could have attended anywhere.  My gosh, it's the best place for science and engineering. What's your favorite spot on campus and why? I like it when the lights are on the fountain. Okay, okay. My favorite boiler maker tradition is blank. Oh, I wish I had a good answer for that. I don't. I never did anything exciting. I'm so lame.  I look at that campus. The campus I feel like has exploded since I was there, which just means people see what I experienced and they see the value of it. So those buildings have gotten grander and better. I can only imagine what kind of experience kids are having now on campus. That was a great answer. What's your next giant leap, personally or professionally? I don't know. I don't think you can predict those kind of things. Just let the world happen. That's a good answer. Okay, that's it. That was not as bad as I thought it was going to be. I know, I know.


What do you look at when you watch Mammy Drew-Breeze on the field, especially the game he had on Monday night, if you've watched that at all? I saw a little bit of the game. Obviously, he was on fire. Kind of a cool moment for him. A guy I respected for a long time, as a person, as a player, kind of followed his career going back to my days in high school. So to be able to see him break that record, he sustained success for a long period of time. And I was happy for him. How important is it going to be for you guys to just focus on the test and not score board watch or worry about what other teams are doing in terms of getting to help you? Oh, it's critical. I mean, we can only control what we can control. And I'll start today in practice. Obviously, got off to a good start this morning in meetings, but it's going to have to continue throughout the week. It's just purely focus on what we can do to get better and then go out and play well on Sunday. I mean, obviously, we need some help at this point, but that's not going to matter if we don't take care of our business. So it's really crucial for us to go out and execute and play well. Deep ball run. Did you play in Spokaneers on Saturday? Do I? Is it where you pop on Texas Spokaneers on Saturday? I don't know. It kind of depends where it falls in my pre-game routine. I'm not even sure what time that game is. So just look to have my normal Saturday and if I have time for that or if it fits. I may see a little bit of it, but it's definitely not something I'm making a priority.  It's maybe you've had in the past. I wonder if that's been a focus for you? Not really a focus. Just I think we've had some good opportunities, guys, making plays down the field for me. You go back throughout the season. Multiple guys have made those plays down the field. So just look to give those guys a chance and hopefully they can make a play. Are you doing it any better now than maybe earlier in your career? I feel like I've gotten better throwing the ball deep as my career's going on. I think earlier I wasn't very good. And then I feel like I've gotten to a rhythm the last three or four years. So I can't say that I feel better now than I had the past three or four years. But yeah, I have a lot of confidence on our guys down the field that if it's tight or if they've got a step on a guy, they're going to make the play. This team's been really good, I guess, in the second half. They had some issues struggling early on offense. What do you think that is and how much maybe does that mean to change? Well, you go back and look at this past game. We moved the ball first drive, got into field goal range. Obviously didn't finish it out there. And then the next drive went down the field and had the turnover on the goal line. So we were moving the ball. We moved the ball, gave ourselves opportunities. We just have to finish those drives. And especially when you play good teams, every time you get into the red zone, have those scoring opportunities, you've got to come away with points. And inside the 20 touchdowns. So I think not so much that we got off to a slow start. We just didn't finish the drives that we needed to finish and got behind. So obviously something we look to do this week is be able to finish those drives, put points on the board, and get the momentum going. You played with some pre-productive procedures when you were with the Dolphins. How does AJ, especially as a rookie, kind of stack up in that regard? AJ's had a great season. I think he's doing some good things for us. He's big, he's strong, he's physical. His run after the catch is really good. And like I've said a couple of times, I wish I knew to keep expanding him, what he can do, and what we're confident in him doing. And he's done that. He's gotten better, I think, each and every week. I think his confidence is growing each and every week. And his understanding of what we're trying to do on the whole. And he's made a big place for us. So you're surprised that a rookie's had that much impact in his first season here? I knew he was talented when he came in. Obviously, being drafted pretty high. And then early on, just seeing his physical attributes and what it could bring to the table. Obviously, you never know how it's going to transition or translate throughout the season.  And we look to just keep expanding his role. So say about your relationship with him, last game, 13 targets. And then some of them were pretty tight, too. But kind of a growing chemistry between the two of you guys, do you think? Yeah, I mean, I think it's growing between all of our guys. Just the longer I play with these guys, and the more I see, obviously, AJ's been playing well lately. And that was some one-on-one situations. We were getting a chance last week. But it's going to vary week in and week out, where that ball goes and where that opportunity goes, just depending on how the game's going. So last week was AJ. We'll see what happens this week. You came in here beginning of the year, not really knowing what you were going to do. Yeah, it's cool. It's a cool honor. But I mean, past that, that's about all it is. It's a cool honor, and I appreciate it. But we still have a lot of work to do. So just really focusing on this week and whatever happens after that happens. Looking forward to it, it's obvious you're not going to be on the field with Drew Brees. But a showdown between the two passers who are leading the league and pass a rating, et cetera? You don't really think about it like that as a quarterback or as an offensive player going against another quarterback. You think about the defense and what you have to do to beat that defense. But yeah, any time I get to go against one of the all-time great quarterbacks, it's a fun opportunity and I look forward to it. What do they do well on defense from what you've seen on the field? Very physical front. I think you look at their front and the way that they play fast, play aggressive, they're penetrating up front. Ken Jordan, obviously one of the best in the game on the outside, getting to the passer, disruptive. On the inside, they're disruptive. Their backers play extremely fast. They're physical. On the back end, they have good cover, guys. So you look at their defense. It's really a complete defense. And we're going to have to play well. We're going to have to come out and execute in order to score points. Any comparisons you think between you and Kenny Vicaro's situation, things maybe didn't necessarily work out in the end with one team that highly drafted, but you come to another organization? I don't know. I mean, everything's different. I haven't thought about that at all. But yeah, I know Kenny's doing a lot of good things for us. And I hope to play well and finish the season strong. That's good. Thanks. Thank you. Thank you.


Last concept, let's look at the idea of cardiac output. Cardiac output. Cardiac output is basically combining the two factors that I mentioned at the end of the last one and putting them together to see how much blood is your entire heart actually pumping. Cardiac output, okay, half your heart. Cardiac output is stroke volume times heart rate. And that's going to give you a number. We know how to calculate stroke volume using our end diastolic and our end systolic volumes. And our heart rate, that's easy to calculate as well, and that's going to give us a number that's going to tell us how much blood we're pumping through our body every minute or so. Usually, cardiac output on both sides of the heart is the same, but if you have damage to your heart or you've got issues somewhere down the line that you're pumping blood to, you can actually have different amounts. And the weaker side of your heart is going to pump slower and you can imagine that blood is going to pool behind the weaker side. And that has some consequences. In the next lecture, we're going to look at capillary exchange and we're going to have some fluid issues, some osmosis issues, some swelling and edema issues. And cardiac output can play a role in that. If you have edema or swelling in a certain part of your body, you might look at that part of the heart that is draining that part of the body and consider, you know, maybe there's damage in the heart itself that the heart itself is unable to keep up with the other side, which results in pooling and fluid adventures in the other side. Other that side, uh-huh, that one over there and then right, yeah. You guys are awesome. I'll be talking to y'all later.


Welcome back to another product review and today I'm going to take a look at the art of book from Disney's Raya and the Last Dragon. Now this movie came out a couple years ago so general spoiler warning so I will go through things but be warned there's stuff in there obviously. Now that is the book, the back, the spine and let's take this cover off and that leaves you this relief there and lost how do you call it the spine and there you go. Alright always a fan of that let's check this out the art of starts off with the big concept piece already you can see forward introduction prologue and so on you can pause this this is the content and as always with art of books usually you have a forward and an intro that's already cool wow love that always a big fan of like ginormous structures with little villages or towns or tech things whatever genre it is just gives you a nice sense of scale it's q2 part one a warrior and a dragon and of course you know I love this already anything like that big fan different variations sketches always a fan not always a full page ooh I like that too I would love like two or three pages of just that just facial expressions and tests and something like this costume variations that's also cool weapons ooh and action poses see that's the stuff that over a couple pages though look at that I'm giving a couple pages nice that's cool that's cool cool pose that is cool see that I love it I already can see something going through or trying to get back as the character goes on it from leg to leg chopping things off that's a really cool body mechanic shop sorry Disney I'm going to steal this one of these days love this running away fleeing whatever with the head upside down it could be dragging could be a funnel animation with the head dragging on the floor already love it got the young version facial expressions and turnarounds costumes get some storyboards got the creature tuk-tuk super cute we'll love to animate this ooh nice love it love I always love this in 2d the wrinkle of the noses there's always something about wrinkly noses in 2d I don't know know hard to replicate I don't know man or not hard to replicate but it's always a certain feeling when things wrinkle in 2d that's cool yes rougher ones I love this love that that's great loving this already I just unwrapped this book by the way so I have no idea what's in this hence my kind of vague spoiler warning love this too with the foreground that's cool establishing shot I love this how this is framed because it's probably that my slowest flip through but I love this is giving me just like this is something I would I would scan the which I will scan and then imagine you can show off a walk cycle maybe some audio piece contrast between one person walking that kind of hesitantly walking turning around for different kind of mechanics and then having this in the foreground this could be jungle this could be robot pieces like whatever you have right but I like this as a setup a lot okay got dragon variations the dragon gem dragon lands nice nice one thing of course I'm guilty of is not always reading all of it I definitely look at all the drawings taking all the poses the sketches the facial stuff the stuff that kind of relates more to me although I love seeing that stuff but it's tricky to find the time to really read all of this it's kind of like a cursory glance and or if it's a specific page I'll read through this that's cool though oh I love this I was just gonna say I wish there were more poses or facial expressions for the characters and then it gives me this that's cool yep they're gonna go back to stuff like that that's neat cool effect in the movie too tail hair I love stuff like that that's cool yeah I remember seeing this one every now and then you see online some facial expressions or poses or just some art to the art that is sadly not in the art book I remember frozen at a bunch of that's a bummer that's a cool set piece too for that one cool the characters nice yes exactly that love that this could be a shot too again just for imagine your lip sync instead of standing or sitting usually it's standing with hand gestures you deliver the whole line like this the character is like this obviously the hand on the jaw should not impact kind of how it sounds otherwise there's a I mean there's this kind of between if the sound is clean but it looks like the hand is on the jaw that would kind of impact the way it sounds watch out for that but I love this that the character could deliver a line while little characters so you can show off different type of things here or doing something with the hair the outfit might steal that at one point when I was asking for expressions well then here we go cute that was cool yes I remember that nice colors that's cool it's almost Ewoks little Star Wars crossover these are cool nice cool art oh that guy was great and oh no see that guy you wanted like a full page full page of expressions that's a bummer and it's a bit short it's cool lots of buildings definitely in this art book and also lots of different characters I mean you can't cram it all in and that's cool though all lightsaber can give you Star Wars vibes again but anytime you're suddenly sourced my Star Wars brainwashed brain adds in lightsabers that was a cool fight at the end I like that I like that pose with the head forward cool nice yeah I wish there was more stuff like that I love stuff like that some more storyboards more art ooh cinematography what if you want to read that I always like reading about that stuff oh we got a multi-page full dot where is this color script these are nice love it I'm gonna admit I know nothing about colors it's always something that I save and I say myself emails about just color theory and stuff like that I don't know enough that's cool these are nice all right concepts and credits the swimming sequence when she's swimming is so good the renders of the water but also the animation is so great all adjustments and then that and there we go there we go the end pretty neat I always makes me want to watch those movies the game I look at this the the art of books like I said it's it's on the better side sometimes it's a bit minimal on the face expressions but it's also that's what I'm looking for I'm looking for different poses and like character poses with cloth expressions or action poses depending on what the character is and what they have to do some books have more of those some have less this seems a bit more in the middle that's pretty cool but as that that's for the flip through and that's it as always thanks for watching the delivery end and if you like that type of stuff I do more I do lectures I do a bunch of stuff on the channel feel free to browse around and subscribe if you want like and subscribe the usual algorithm speech and pitch at the end but thanks for watching and hopefully I'll see you in my next upload

Aloha, I'm Kelea Akinah, president of the Grassroot Institute of Hawaii. Is anyone surprised that Honolulu Mayor Kirk Caldwell wants the city to use $44 million of bond debt to pay for administrative costs related to the construction of the rail system? You know, the proposal is a bad sign, indicating once again that the city mega project is in poor financial health, and clearly that the wildly over-budget and behind-scheduled transit development needs a full, deep audit for fraud, waste and abuse. Caldwell's proposal to use bond money to pay for administrative costs of the Honolulu area rapid transit was contained in his fiscal 2019 executive and capital programs budget, which he submitted to the Honolulu City Council on March 2. The requested funds would have to be paid back with interest and certainly add to the ever-mounting costs of the project. One local budget analyst said the debt interest alone could eventually be almost as much as the principal amount borrowed, and that's assuming a 5 percent interest rate, and dangerously set a precedent for using this kind of funding mechanism in future years. In addition, the proposed spending also goes against the Honolulu City Council's law banning itself from using city funds for the rail. Ordinance 07-001 Section 3 states that the rail expenses, quote, shall be paid entirely from general excise and use tax surcharge revenues, interest earned on the revenues, and any federal, state or private revenues. Notice there's no word bond in there, and also notice that the law does not say city revenues can be used. That's why some members of the council have been seeking for some time to change the law. Meanwhile, according to the most recent evaluation of Honolulu's finances by Moody's investor services, Honolulu's, quote, challenges related to construction of light rail, end quote, could lead to a downgrade of its AA1 credit rating if the city shows, quote, inability to manage escalating fixed costs, end of quote. Yet the mayor and his cohorts on the council now want to borrow money not only for the capital construction costs of the rail, but also for its administrative costs. After receiving criticism that the rail was well over budget last summer during the latest round to seek state tax aid, Caldwell and other boosters of the project indicated that the rail's skyrocketing costs were now under control, and that building and operating the rail would not place the city in an endless cycle of debt. Skeptics took those assurances with a grain of salt, but this update underlines the questions that still dog the project. The only way to effectively address those concerns and restore public trust is through a full audit of the rail. Although the city passed a follow-up audit last year, that audit will not specifically look for fraud, waste and abuse. More transparency is needed. Whether folks are pro-rail or anti-rail, the funding realities demonstrate that city officials need to be more forthright with the public, not only about its real costs, but also about its long-term effect on Honolulu's finances. In the end, it's a question of accountability, transparency and the public trust. The first step is to provide a full investigation of the project. Ehana Kako, let's work together for greater transparency and accountability in government. I'm Kili Iakina with the Grassroot Institute, Aloha.


The following is a presentation of TFNN, the Tiger Technician Hour with your host, Basil Chapman. Call now. Call free at 1-877-927-6648. Good morning, everyone, Basil Chapman, here this is the Friday, the 8th edition, December the 8th of the Tiger Technicians Hour, and the dial is actually up 80 points at $36,192. So I'm going to go through this, because it's technical Friday, I'm going to go through this very, very carefully, just one at a time, and I'm going to start off with this particular chart right here, let's hope this is the one that comes up, yeah. So within the context of markets, when I get some kind of a cell signal, I am looking for the kind of move that says there is bad news out there, there's always some kind of bad news, but the market is taking it seriously in the sense that it is impacting the market. So whatever the response is to economic news, whatever it is, the market suddenly says, oh, this is terrible. So I've got one, I've got two aspects that I'm looking at right now. I'm not looking even close to the idea that this is the kind of major cell signal that could turn down, say the one we had back in August the first, when we got that on balance volume reversal right at the top. This is a little different. This is a work in progress. So to get a kind of cell signal that says, oh, now we're going down real sharply, there has to be the bad news, number one. Number two, there has to be some form of the characteristic of the market has to suddenly change. So instead of having these big 32 point up moves in the S&P almost daily and the down up 180, 250 points, what you need to see to get the signal that says, okay, now we're going down seriously rather than just sideways choppy choppy move is that the futures need to have taken any news negatively. And the futures instead of being right now, there has to be futures. Let me just go there. I'll show you something right here. Instead of holding and making new recovery highs today, up 13 should in fact be down 28 to 32 points and then quickly down to 42 points negative. And the Dow should be 180 to 235 points and the accused should probably be leading the way down, etc. We don't have that. So this is almost like looking at the market in regard to the parameters that should be met if all the conditions are there for a really sharp sell off. So as it says right now, we don't have that the futures up 13, the S&P futures, the Dow futures are up 71, not great, but they are up. So this is what I'm looking at. Because of that single leg A to the upside in the weekly chart, and even today, the Dow has extended that move in the weekly, it's still F slash A. F says, oh my God, every pullback, sorry, this should be a very serious pullback. A says, oh man, every pullback you've got to buy. So at this particular point, we're making some kind of a sideways consolidation, a high level consolidation. But the unbalanced volume that gave a nice trigger right there on the 1st of January was different to the one that was at August the 1st. This one's saying the momentum to the upside is starting to slow a little bit. But any pullback, it needs to start really soon. And if you take out the high of $36,292, this is a Dow made three days ago, you've extended it. Then what you can do is make another little trend line like this, a rising trend line. And maybe that becomes some kind of a top, but what you've done is you've negated because the 9-period moving average is still so strong, the MACD is still positive, and the stochastic is still at 88% instead of 95% or 97%, it's 88%, it's pulling back and the unbalanced pulling back. But the indicator of last resort, that's the 9-14, is still strong. So I'm going to go to this chart right here, which I did back in August the 1st. And you can see that this is the end here. And in my webinar coming up Wednesday week for subscribers, you'll be able to get all my webinars if you sign up for that, plus all the calls that we're making in the meantime going into that Wednesday, the sooner you sign up. Look, that 9 is still way above, remember August the 1st? August the 1st was right there, that's where we were, made a little kind of a hiccup to the upside. The MACD was still rising right there, here the MACD is still rising. So there's a lot of work to do to get this 9-period, and I'm not sure that in this particular move we're going to get it. The 9 to go under the 14-period moving average, you'd have to see the Dow probably at 36,200. Oh sorry, 36,000, 35,000, so 1,000 points down. So let's go one step at a time. So that just says, if you get a signal, it's a starter of a signal, and you have to wait about probably with the 9,000, so strong you have to wait about a week or so of negative news to see that decline. Okay, that's number one. Number two is the bad news, it could have been bad news out there, the jobs number was higher than expected, the market did pull back, in fact pre-market it was down 130 points in Dow futures, and the S&P was down over 20 points, and now look at this, S&P is up 15, and the Dow is up 9,900 points. So that just says to me, you cannot rule out, even though we've taken some short positions today, you cannot rule out that this is going to be some form of a recycle with maybe just a small move to the downside, and that we could continue higher based on the single leg A up in the weekly chart, the same thing here, look at the S&P, S&P, S&P, S&P. So S&P, oh, 40, 4601, it's actually taken that out, now you've got yourself a possible G, unfortunately, right here, and that's with the MACD still, oh no, MACD is negative, stochastic is down 72%, on balance forms are negative, but that nine-period moving average is strong, so I'm going to call that a G, but I have to be very realistic and say G, slash, and that could become the new bottom that says slash B, all right? So the day is young, we'll see where it closes, but there is a new recovery high, meaning that the 4607.07, this double-topish area is still active in the weekly chart, but what a big move in the weekly chart from the 4103 to today's high 4607 cannot rule out that this is going to be a very positive leg A, and if that's the case, then what we're looking at is the 4818 high of January 2023, 23, yes, wait a minute, wait a minute, 4818, that was 22, right, 22, 22, right there becomes a magnet line very soon, if in fact by the end of the day, there's a really strong up close.

So the question can't be a G, C, and not B in the S and P. No. I have to consider the S and P. Why? Because there's your peak D, there's your peak E, and then it made a lower low than the trough from D. So this really is the start, either a continuation pattern, that's fine, G, but if it's a brand new buy signal, then I have to say that it could be an alternative count B. So I hope that helps you. And so a question came in to me, I just let me finish this here. So Gold is down, you remember the chapter of red Roman candle, inverted red Roman candle. So this is the fourth session, and now it's way below the low of the fourth of, this is a continuous contract, the 4th of December of 21, 52, sorry, 2038.4. It's trading at 2028.9 right now. The weekly chart is that in essence is turning into a very big red Roman candle in the weekly chart. Now what is a Roman candle? Basically, so let me just move this away because this did the one to one to the upside. It's where the wick is very long and the body is more than halfway or more from the wick top or bottom. And there's a tiny little wick at the top or the bottom with a big, in this case a red candle like that one there. And that basically says if within two to three sessions, actually to the upside, inverted red candle, it says within two sessions, if there is a period in a shorter timeframe where the price holds the midpoint of the wick, the long wick, to the upside it's the same thing in reverse to the downside. In this case, 21, 24, and it does it within two days. There's a real good chance, not only when you test the high, but break it. And if it was inverted, a green one, it would test the low and break it. But if it closes within two to three sessions, I like to say two out of three times below the left side low. And that's the low of what did I say, 20, 20, 30, 38.4. And this is the second session out of four. So it's a little different and it hasn't closed, it hasn't closed at 20, 28, 20, 28.3. So we'll see. That just says now what you've done is set in place some kind of a cell signal, not a cell mode yet, no matter what it looks like. It just, nine is still way above the 14. We've just seen that nine-period moving average can be such a powerful, powerful medium. So in this case, the MACDs weeks, the Cassey's down 30%, on-balance forms weak, a little gray relative strength line, very weak. And what I can say is that this does not look very good, certainly on the weekly time frame. So let me put this one to one back, maybe next week I'll take it off. I don't like it when it starts to look so messy. Okay, so that's gold, that's a good silver, SI. Silver is, oh, that's an Eiffel Tower, straight up, straight down, a lousy weekly chart, 23.79 down 26 cents. Yeah, this is not good action at all. And that just says to me, you can't give an exact mirror image of the dollar to the gold. They don't work, they directionally, yes, they do the opposite thing, but they don't necessarily go percentage-wise to the same move or price-wise. So within that context, gold is, the dollar is only up 35 ticks at 104.01. And you can see this pullback from the 200-period moving average. How important is that? You'll see how many times it got reversed there. And the dollar is acting just okay. But look, on a weekly basis, this is now the second week that the nine-period moving average has gone pink in the weekly chart. And that is, you know, dollar is just kind of bouncing, that's all I can say. And now look at this, the EURUSD, this is the Eurodollar currency pair. Did I hit something wrong? And say it again. EURUSD, there it is. Right on the 200-period exponential moving average, it's either support is going to be a one-to-one to the downside, we'll see. At this particular point, it looks like it's trying to hold support before resistance. Now we'll see if it becomes support in this arch formation. But look at this, EURUSD-JPY. How important is the 200-period moving average? Right there. It went right through. This is not just Mrs. Corning at a Chapman Way of Roman candle, a red one at the bottom. When it's at a bottom after a big move down, you have to look for it as a reversal, a potential reversal pattern. This is the yen. I don't see that right now because the technicals are just so weak. But look at that 200-period moving average I saw when I was on the show yesterday, I think it was right at that level. It went under it sharply, under 142, and then a bounce and close at 144. And it's trading right now at 144.12. That weekly chart is not a pretty sight, but the nine is not yet negative. So I'm just watching it very closely. That's number one. Number two is the pattern that I often talk about, technical Friday. A pattern that has this big flag candle, flagpole high, then it pulls back sharply and then starts to make higher highs and higher lows, can go to all the way back in a lopsided cup formation within the rectangle, the large rectangles. It's not the narrow side with the rectangle we've seen so often lately, but this is the broad one. And this just says you can make a U-shaped pattern or an arch formation. In this case, the U-shaped pattern goes on the way up and it can go to peak A, peak B, peak C, and even a D. But what the object is, it can go right to exactly or just above the previous high, in this case 151.94 that was made back in November. No, October of 2022. And that's where you've got to be careful. That's exactly what happened. It went there. It happens to be G-C. No, it didn't make a new high, did it? Yes, it did by 151.90. It missed it by what? It missed it by a few cents. So far, that's a C. So it went exactly to that level, just as the rule of thumb is, and now it's starting to pull back. And this is the uptrend line, the up channel of the yen. And look what happened. It went sliced right through it. And yet the nine-point moving average is so close to turning down when it hasn't. So my suspicion is the dollar is still kind of weak. Gold is, you've got to think of these things separately. I think the big gold rally had to do with the Middle East. The Middle East is in a situation right now where a chunk of the action that we were anticipating is hopefully, I mean, nobody wants to see death anywhere, but we'll talk about that as a separate thing. I'm just talking about it market-wise. It looks like gold is saying that the geopolitical angst that is always reflected by gold's action is receding. That's really what I'm saying. All right. Good. Now, so what's British Pound doing? I was asked, okay, British Pound. British Pound has made a PKF doji candle. It's pulled back with a nice, still very strong, but the weekly charts kind of struggling. So we're going to have to watch it. Just watch. 1.24 is the 200-point moving average. And anywhere in the next two weeks, if it gets to 1.27, that's a very good act. 1.28 is the 200-point moving average. That was up 91. That's a piece of 16. The day is really young.

So let me just finish this up and then I'm going to go to the couple of quite a few stocks, like you and Dan, all the questions. I'm going to get to those. Number that we're watching here in Crude Oil, I said that the pattern that I've got says that maybe the 70, oops, sorry, the 70, I said 70, it should be, sorry, 65, 64 level could be hit by the 15th. When's the 15th? That's next Wednesday. Yeah, and don't forget, folks, on the 22nd, the following Wednesday I'm doing my webinar should be a good timing for this to look at what stocks could we be looking at and what positions would we want to take for 2024 looking ahead. And some of them are going to start buying sooner, in fact. So that's Crude Oil, but it's a nice bounce today. If that bounce loss into Monday, I don't know what we'll take it suddenly down, but this is, look, it held the Chemwave inside track support target line right there, that's at Trough F. And we'll see if it's able to hold, because 7250 is the pink nine-period exponential moving average. And the weekly chart really is, this is going to the weekly chart, you'll see the weekly chart that's got that straight, that pyramid pattern straight up, straight down, inverted V from a peak D top, it's in leg C. The technicals are suggesting that Crude Oil should at least test the 67 area, the 200-period moving average over the next few weeks. We'll be watching that closely. Okay, so I think I've done most, oh no, I haven't done the TLT. So look at this, he has the TLT in a leg D yesterday, peak D today, high of just under the 9629 200-period exponential moving average. When did it last get there? It was last, the way back in March, April of this year, and it got repelled from the 200-period moving average. And it hasn't even been closed, it got fairly close back in June, at a peak D it failed. He has a leg D, maybe a peak D by the end of the day. And more importantly, what I'm looking at is that the MAG-D strong, Stochastic strong at 92% on balance volume is strong, but it's turning down, the red drop strength is strong, but turning down as well. And I have to put this together with what? The TBT. And the TBT made a peak F in the Chaff Wave, ABCDFG, that's the notation, D is where other things can happen. 44.96 back on the 23rd of October, has that been smoothed out? 42, 44.96, yep, still there. And it came all the way down to this support level. Now look at that, I forgot, gosh, I forgot all about it. It made a left side, right side, oh my, I didn't even realize that. Look, to that peak E right there, I didn't even draw this in with a, oh, I didn't finish doing it, but I had left side, right side price time match to today. This is a daily chart to today with that plumb line in the middle and right there, it hit it, no, yesterday to yesterday, there's a little price over there. So yeah, it's bouncing off there. So when I said to you that in this particular chart right here, remember I was talking about 10, 20 this morning to later on, maybe one 10 this afternoon, it's going to be really critical. Does the market give back anything? Does it break the new highs? What does it do? So all I'm saying, oh, so the question came in, Basil, could you please review oil? I say long USO calls for 12, 13 inches. Yeah, I think on a very short-term basis, I don't want to tell you what to do because I didn't tell you to get into that. You got it into it on your own, congratulations. Nice, a nice analysis there. I would take a little bit off. You've got a very good immediate gain and you must be looking at a profit right now if you got it in the last two days. Why? Because the technicals are still extremely weak and you've got the 200-period moving average resistance at 34, 36 in the continuous contract. Oh, what am I talking about? You're talking about crude oil. Let me just do that again. The pattern is the same. So this is the same thing right here. So yes, if you've got it in the last two days, you should be looking at a profit, 71.58. Actually, same thing applies to the TL, to the TBT that is to crude oil. So I am saying to you, just be a little careful here because there's a doji candle. I love the doji candle low. I love the fact that there's a nice follow-through green candle, but it's really days young. The MACD is not bad at all. Sycastic is making a little V-shape formation from 6%. But you remember under 20%, it's like over 80% and holding in the single digits. You've got to see a really good move. So 72.59 is the level to watch.  Oh no, that's too dead. Take a little bit off because if you can take a little bit off, you're giving yourself a chance to hold the rest as long as you hold them over the weekend. If you hold them over the weekend, then I definitely would take a little bit off. Why? Because if there's a nice surprise to you and everything I'm looking at, I'm going to go through it again in a while, says that by the Champions notation, the alphabet notation, I mean, I wrote down just yesterday, did a whole ton of stocks that are at DEF. This morning, there were brand new DEFs. I even wanted to show you something here. Of course, I wrote it down and I wouldn't be able to find it. Why didn't I write it down right here? Anyway, I will look at it. But in the meantime, I'm suggesting you to that. People said in the den it feels a little heavy. It's a very indefinitive thing to say. It feels a little heavy. But I think the rally is now starting to feel heavy. That's what I'm saying. That's the reason why we've taken some preparatory short positions. Not very heavy. Well, I can't say. One is aggressive, but the other is just to be in place to say, that's what I'm looking at. I'm thinking we're going to pull back here. Okay. So the seal, Crudor, take a little profit. Now, where was I when I interrupted myself? Oh, the TBT. So the TBT is saying, it's the same thing that there could be a bit of a rally here. Trouff G says, C, TLT has made a leg D and maybe a peak D today. Probably a peak D. I'm just saying, remember, I was naming these. Oh, that's what I wanted to do. I was naming these things one by one. I'm not adding something yet. But I'm saying, this looks to me like it's going to come out of nowhere. The next surprise, if it is a surprise to the downside, because I don't see it yet, yields what they pull back. They've been fantastic. They dropped sharply. So just one step, two is on balance volume. Three is there is a chance that something intra-USA, not external, but intra-USA, is just going to come up and rear his head and say, whoa, oh, that could be a serious thing. We'll see. All right. So with that said, PLTR was the question. Oh, and again, you have a bunch of questions that relate to what I'm talking about. Oh, I'll get to them. We have time. We'll be back for the next break. And we're looking at PLTR, if I can type in right there, trading down at Offer Peak C. We'll get to D's the question. I'll be back. Are you ready to take your trading to the next level?

Quick volunteer that made a peak peak in the weekly chart, and I can't remember. I'm surprised that I didn't do this. Look, this started the peak at 13.68 with an exact double bottom of 13.68. That means you keep in place the peak and the peak B. It gets B minus if it goes one penny below. Then it goes to C and a D. Because 13.68 was the starting point, I'm not sure what I was thinking when I typed in AB. I would have been, I almost always do this when the technicals are strong, but there's a chance that it could be an alternate count. It should have been a G slash C just under 22, and now it's pulling back and it's trying to fill the gap. I'd say be careful. Palantir trading is 17.58 because it's made the dreaded H and it's done the one-to-one to the downside. I just say be real careful because it needs to hold 16.50, that whole area, a point lower. If it goes a point lower, then it's going to fill a chunk of that gap. 14.89, 85 is the 200-period moving average. So just be real careful. If you are long, I'm going to advise you, take something off and have a protective stock. If it starts to move, you can always go back in because the nine-period moving average is cross-negative. It'll take a move to the 18.85 area for it to get strong again. So I don't know if you're in it, but you're looking to get it. But if you're in it, have some kind of a protective stock. Next question came in. So Tiger YouTube was, let me just do this in order that I see. Oh, where is the GDX bottom? Well, the 200-period moving average, I was talking about this yesterday and the day before, in the 29.50 area. It's at 29.89 right now. The MACD hasn't turned cross-negative yet. The stochastic, it's weak and unbalanced for arms, weak rental strength. It's still at about 53%, but that's, it's starting to weaken. So I just be real careful there. And I would probably think that based on the action of gold, that if you want to get into the GDX, I was saying under 30 for subscribers is where I'm going to start to look at it. I'll do some work over the weekend. The day's young. I want to see where it closes, how it handles this 29.50's 200-period moving average. And I want to check the weekly chart out before. I think there's time to go to the long side. But as I said, I think that gold was used as a geopolitical kind of insurance. And now that's just fading a little bit, and we'll have to see what happens. Anything can happen, you know, if it comes back. But as gold, but I like the fact that it's come off the 25-62 low of October, and it's had such a big move to 31s because it had a move from the 32s, 33s down to 25, and that's kind of come back. But that candle of, you want to see in December, you want to see 32.93, the candle high of the 21st of July, you want to see that. It doesn't have to be closed above it, but you want to see it touched. That's important. So right now, if you're thinking of gold, it's getting close to where I would consider it. I'd have to do an analysis of the stocks but I'd consider that maybe that's forming an attempt at a bottom, all the way down to the 29 level. The close on the 29 says, this is a big problem. But right now it's just, that's the area. So where's the bottom? I'd say in the 29s it needs to hold. Next question came in. Let me just read these things very quickly. Metta, was that? Who said that? Ah, Rachelle. Was that Rachelle now? Yeah, Rachelle. Metta-licious, very nice. I like that. Metta-licious. Yeah, Metta's pulling back. This is a tough one. And I'll tell you why. I think looking out there at monthly charges, it's going to make you higher highs. It's at a leg B and it's probably going to go all the way back to the 384 level over the next maybe two months or so, three months. But the weekly charge is, I'm holding well. I keep holding that 14 period moving average. I need to move quickly away from it and it's doing that. Although the bank this week, stochastic is good at 87%. And the daily chart has this pattern that I call the falling acts. You go up and all of a sudden your stall make lower highs and much lower lows. And then you try to find support. So this is the level to watch. If Metta, formerly Facebook, I still can't say Metta. It's really tough for me. If it can close any day next week, if it can close above 336, it's trading at 329, it's not a big deal, seven points. That's going to be a big positive. The Magnus stochastic are all terribly weak and it's got the nine period moving average, but that will finally cross positive. But if it gives back today's gain by Wednesday of next week and it's trading below 320, that's going to be a problem and it's going to be a problem that needs to be resolved quite soon after it does that. So at this point it's acting well, but it isn't a sell signal in the daily chart. I have to wait for the close to say it's a sell mode. I think it's just a sell signal. With the chart is in a buy mode. So that's what I wanted to do for Metta. So it's acting well. Yep. Next question was Metta, Metta, Metta. Triple M. I spoke about this yesterday. I said, look at that fantastic move. It's gone from the 85 area low, was that around number low? I think it just missed it. 85, 35 on the 23rd. The area is at 104, 20 points higher in a leg. I'm going to call this F, but it hasn't made an instant restart. So I'm calling it F for now, but I am going to say on a very short-term basis, the 200 pre-moving average I mentioned this yesterday was 102.62. And I think that's going to, this is going to be a containment area. This is the way I'm looking at a triple M, 3M company, the daily chart. Really chart is in a leg C, very quick A to B to C, and I have to say just be careful. It could consolidate a little bit, but this is a really nice action and a really huge loser from 2 or 8 down to the 85 level. And now it's bouncing a little bit. Keep this in mind for the, in my webinar, stocks like triple M are the stocks I'm going to focus on to say, will those former big losers become really nice winners? They're ready. I mean, this is really 85 to 20 something percent. So that's a good move. Okay, triple M. Next question came in. Could I look at, so I did Pellentier, ARKK. This is also on my list. I think, it doesn't look very good, it doesn't. ARK, ARKK. Yeah, ARK is ARK innovation, very nice. It's squeaked to another leg higher. This is a G, those are almost like triple M. So this is a little different because we've been waiting for the real laggards, like an ARK innovation. Another thing I'm going to be talking about in a great year. We might start positions in some of these things this coming week, rather than wait for any big pullback. Because if you've got the rotation into the sectors that were the weakest, they should hold up the best. They should. If they're going to go to another big move to the upside, if they are not, they're going to plunder really any weakness. We should start to see these are the ones that should fail immediately, but they're not. So we've got a rotational leadership here, and that's why the IWM is good. So this is acting very well. I like it. I should have grabbed it ages ago. It's at 49 and it's still way off the 125 high, and it still has to make this double top, see if it can break the comfy chart, the baby chart, far for the high and the low 50s. So it's actually very wanted to break its resistance left. ARK is acting very well. Our next question came in. CLSCLSK. I love this stuff. I'll be back. That's what you're talking about.

TFNN.com Educating Investors D, so that becomes E, F, and G slash C. I always put that in G says C. Now, a couple of things to look at here. When you make a G slash C and you've already gone just very nominally above the previous high, look how quickly it's gone from D to E to F to G. You've got to anticipate that yes, you could go to a D, but there's a really good chance that you're going to come back into that 46 area for ARC over the next time. Give it like five, six sessions into maybe Friday a week, so that's what I'm saying. Unless the move here in this G slash C goes the same leg that started today with a new recovery high goes all the way to say the 50.75, 51 area. That's different altogether. That changes it completely. So CLSK just let's do that. Clean spark. I love this chart. I don't know what happened to break out like that. I had it as a screamer the other day showing up as a screamer. I didn't do anything. It was at a peak, C, D pulls back and look at the spectacular gap up move and now it's trading at 10.19. So if you're long, just keep holding on anything about that and riot is a little different in that riot is an alternative count, but it's at 16. I think between 16 and 1650 is going to be a bit of a bump, a resistance level just shorter. So without that said, does up under 16. Good action so far today and have a wonderful rest of the weekend.
