I thought this was really interesting and this piece of news was around Christmas, New Year. So in case you missed it, New York City will make it mandatory for companies to disclose minimum and maximum salaries on job adverts. It's illegal to ask candidates what they're currently earning, which is interesting because in contrast in the UK, for example, you can ask and it's a bit odd if the candidate doesn't disclose. That's the kind of vibe and feeling in the UK. US really different, been really interesting to recruit in the US and these states and not asking people pros and cons to it. I think, well, let's go into it. The disclose and the salary, I think is also interesting and I did a poll on LinkedIn and I asked mandating companies to disclose salaries on the job adverts. Brilliant idea, 83% of people, no way 14% and some people said, other please comment, 2%. I had 568 votes. A decent number of people voted. It's a nice cross section. I think it's super fascinating and there's two sides to this and a bunch of things in the middle clearly, but pros to this, people feel that it will be fairer. It will level the playing field. Does it really matter what you're earning now? You could be earning 50,000, you could be earning 200,000, but this roll pays 100,000 or let's say 80,000 to 100,000 if we're doing minimum max. Would you like to apply? That's it and it's interesting because a lot of people, for a bunch of different reasons, sometimes are underpaid. There's the gender pay gap people talk about and there's often people that have come into the country from a different place with different experience. They often paid a bit less. There's all of these kinds of conversations happening and people feel that it's fairer. People should be paid the same for the same job. Great point and whether this makes that happen, let's see. But I think it's certainly an interesting step forward and it'll be really interesting to see. On the other side of the coin, people say, look, negotiations part and parcel. People need to learn to negotiate better. People fear that some of the larger companies who can perhaps afford to pay more might end up getting better talent. People aren't sure on this side of the conversation whether or not it will really have the impact that they're hoping for. Speaking cynically, there's still going to be some negotiation and what happens if someone comes in and they're like, okay, look, you said you pay 100, but actually, I want 120, I want 150. I think that's still room for negotiation. I think it's really interesting. But then we're moving a little bit towards this one size fits all and I think you have to be careful. So let's see where it lands. I think I'm positive. I think it's going to be really interesting. I think it will probably be fairer and it'll be interesting to see how that all develops.


So far, we've established several working principles to guide our exploration of the past. Individual actions are motivated by perceived self-interest. When we shift our historical perspectives from one actor to another, we change the facts of the past as well. Both Marxism and classical liberalism are concerned with the social exercise of individual power and the resultant class conflicts. Only individuals act, and our understanding of social units should build from individuals. And finally, conspiracies between individuals are fundamental to social experience. We have some decent tools in our grasp by now, so let's start digging. This is Liberty Chronicles, a project of Libertarianism.org. I'm Anthony Comegna. We'll begin our pursuit of liberty and power with an overview of the state of the world around 1400. The year makes for a good benchmark, standing as it does firmly within the late medieval period, but beckoning so obviously to the transformational century or two just ahead. In North and South America, trading networks linked peoples across the continents into a fantastically diverse, agriculturally productive, culturally vibrant landscape. In 1492, the population within current U.S. borders was roughly 4 to 12 million, and on both continents, 40 to 120 million, which was about equal with Europe. Plenty have wondered then, why did not the Indians put up a better fight? Or why did we not see Incan armadas bombarding the Spanish coast, unleashing wave after wave of galloping American knights? Well, for one thing, they had nothing to gallop with. As biologist Jared Diamond famously argued, the Native American's geographic isolation from the rest of the world prevented the diffusion of animal and plant species, as well as technology. Geography also prevented the American population from building immunity to a wide variety of diseases that Westerners carried with them across the ocean. We are often pushed to essentialize Native Americans as a single cultural blob of New Age metaphysical beliefs and religious practices, or as the unfortunate casualties of unstoppable modernization. But, natives were in fact fantastically diverse in culture, political organization, philosophical and religious beliefs, and the practices of daily life. Native North Americans did not live in some idealized harmony with nature. This is a modern conception imposed upon the past for our own self-serving purposes in the present. Nor did the natural world, or the natural laws of technological progress, ever condemn natives to extinction. That tragedy was, once again, a fact of history and human action, not nature in random circumstance. As we will see, however, indigenous societies continued to offer powerful sociocultural and political alternatives to the European empires. In Africa, too, many tens of millions clustered densely together in complex civilizations. These societies maintained vigorous links with one another north to south across the Sahara Desert and east to west by river and coastal trade. African kingdoms and empires were some of the most powerful, wealthy and highly educated in world history. Africans enjoyed relative isolation from the rest of Afro-Eurasia and enough contact to bring the benefits of cultural and biological diffusion. Great and powerful empires satisfied complex kin-based networks of village chieftains, only loosely connected through language and culture. Much like feudal Europe and Native America, Africa was an endlessly complicated patchwork of linguistic, political and cultural groups, often exercising interlocking and overlapping authority. In Asia, the world's largest populations crowded into the largest and most complicated cities. Ruling elites enjoyed the planet's richest trade routes and luxuriated in a host of expensive and exotic goods. Before Western Europe shot so far ahead in economic productivity, East Asian total wealth towered above most other sectors of the human population. Even after the Mongol conquests and the Black Death, China's Ming dynasty was strong enough to fund several exploratory and trading expeditions reaching all the way to coastal East Africa. Fearing the rise of a new merchant capitalist class with power independent of the crown and preoccupied with military problems in Inner Asia, the Yongle Emperor ceased the Zhenghe voyages to maintain a continental focus. While China remained an expansionist imperial power of its own, perfectly capable of repelling European aggression for several centuries yet, the emperors never seriously reconsidered trans-oceanic statecraft again. In Europe, the late feudal population was relatively small, having been devastated by the plague. They were relatively poor and relatively uneducated. Compared to their contemporaries in the Ottoman and Ming empires, which were probably the two strongest states of the period, 15th century Europeans lived rather sheltered in small lives. To most of the population, Europe was really nothing other than the same village they had always known and perhaps never left. The wealthy and urban populations may have had a greater sense of the wider world. Hundreds of cities and statelets connected together through trade, and during the high medieval period wealth became heavily concentrated in a new mercantile class. But then the Black Death so depressed the supply of labor that wage rates spiked and aristocrats faced generational debt. Couple that with the Ottoman consolidation of the Near East into a single massive tariff wall and wealthy Europeans needed a way out of declining incomes. In their search for a way out of stagnant feudalism, wealthy individuals channeled their investment into overseas trade and settlement, the landed gentry enclosed private and common fields alike over the centuries, and peasants now deprived of the ability to produce their own subsistence, steadily learned to sell their labor for wages or clustered hopelessly in urban slums. The transition from feudalism to what we may call capitalism was a mucky, murky, often nasty process, the benefits of which were very unevenly distributed or too far in the future to be appreciated by actors at the time. Feudalism is a society in which peasants cultivate lands for a lord or noble, providing production in exchange for food stores during famine, for example, and protection. Labor was a social obligation owed from one class to the other by virtue of natural order. Capitalism, by contrast, is marked by the treatment of labor as a commodity and the dissolution of the old social bonds. Rather than the feudal model in which social bonds connect peasant and lord to a web of reciprocal obligations, the capitalist model is based on the productive capacity of each participant and a free and open market for that labor. No longer bound by the social obligations of the manner, laborers in a capitalist society are free to seek those occupations which offer the highest returns for their labor inputs, and employers are free to hire and fire at will for whatever wage the market will bear. In the long run, the payoff in wealth produced is astounding. In the short run, however, wage laborers were now entirely at the whims of the vast and swirling impersonal marketplace, dominated by a class of industrial and imperial titans. Feudalism granted to noblemen an almost endless list of rights and privileges, all of which had some theoretical relationship to his position as steward over the social hierarchy. To raise some quick funds, monarchs often offloaded these rights and privileges to others. Besides, being king or queen like being president is really, really hard. Everyone has so many expectations, all of which are impossible for a single will to satisfy. To avoid rebellion, revolution, tyrannicide, court intrigue, and any number of other potential pitfalls, monarchs granted away the burdens of rule to private enterprises. For example, though he possessed sole mining rights, a king might grant certain wealthy and skilled subjects the authority to own and operate a mining corporation. The new institutions would be given a legal life bestowed with certain chunks of the monarch's own body of special powers. Ultimately, our modern concept and institution of the corporation dates back to this very sort of privilege granting. And this fact is both tremendously important and overlooked in contemporary libertarian thinking. The corporate charter was supposed to be a clear delineation of the rights and privileges of specific individuals, especially empowered and privileged by the monarch to do business X, Y, or Z. But in the context of new world discovery and settlement, corporations went well beyond the domestic tasks of mining, bridges, banking, and the like. Companies of adventurers, investors, merchant explorers, and settlers soon proliferated around the globe, each armed with a litany of legal powers once reserved to the monarch, now lovingly distributed to his pets. Corporations were, in effect, extensions of the royal body. And so free market capitalism, so-called, has never really existed. What we call capitalism and portray with a romantic, loving glow was, in fact, brutish corporatism, a steadily intensifying merger of the state and private or local life. Over time, the new class of corporate capitalists and the empires of which they were parts forcibly absorbed the process of economic and social production and reproduction, controlling the means by which people and societies could support themselves, grow, and expand. Take, for example, Ferdinand and Isabella's original charter to Columbus. The explorer Conquistador and his sailors would provide the skilled labor in exchange for the monarch's backing. The rulers welcomed Columbus into their own social class, granting he and his descendants near absolute authority and ownership over vast portions of the new world. Don Columbus took to his new position well, immediately enslaving indigenous Tainos and acting as a vicious dictator over his new lands. Or there's the charter Elizabeth I, granted to Sir Walter Raleigh in 1584. Raleigh and his conspirators are not merely granted the right to explore, settle, conquer, subdue, and rule in the queen's name. She actually commissions them as pirates against her own enemies. Business and statecraft blended together into a single institutional framework. Or there was the extremely broad berth given to the proprietors of Virginia in the colony's first charter. King James grants the proprietors an absolutely mammoth portion of land, considering the standard European plots at the time. Along with the land, they're granted absolute rights over virtually everything there. In exchange for granting this small portion of his personal domain, James' government will get a cut of the revenue and retain the absolute allegiance of all subjects in Virginia. Richard Hacklert, Clerk, Preventary of Westminster, and Edward Mariah Wingfield, Thomas Hingharm, and Raleigh Gilbert Esquires, William Parker and George Popham, gentlemen, and divers, others of our loving subjects, have been humbled suitors unto us that we would vouch safe unto them our license to make habitation, plantation, and to deduce a colony of sundry of our people into that part of America, commonly called Virginia, and other parts of territories in America, either appertaining unto us or which are not now actually possessed by any Christian prince or people. And to that end, and for the more speedy accomplishment of their said intended plantation and habitation there, are desirous to defend themselves into two several colonies and companies, the one consisting of certain knights, gentlemen, merchants, and other adventurers of our city of London and elsewhere, which are, and from time to time shall be, joined unto them which do desire to begin their plantation and habitation, and the other consisting of sundry knights, gentlemen, merchants, and other adventurers of our cities of Bristol and Exeter, and of our town of Plymouth, and of other places which do join themselves unto that colony. We, greatly commending, graciously accepting of their desires for the furtherance of so noble a work which may, by the providence of Almighty God, hereafter tend to the glory of His Divine Majesty in propagating of Christian religion to such people as yet live in darkness and miserable ignorance of the true knowledge and worship of God, and may in time bring the infidels and savages living in those parts to human civility and to a settled and quiet government do, by these our letter patents graciously accept of and agree to their humble and well-intended desires, and do, therefore, for us, our heirs and successors grant and agree that the said Sir Thomas Gates, Sir George Summers, Richard Hacklewitt, and Edward Mariah Wingfield, adventurers of and for our city of London and all such others as are or shall be, joined unto them of that colony shall be called the First Colony, and they shall and may begin their said first plantation and habitation at any place upon the said coast of Virginia or America where they shall think fit and convenient, that they shall have all the lands, woods, soil, grounds, havens, ports, rivers, mines, minerals, marshes, waters, fishings, commodities, and hereditiments whatsoever from the said first seats of their plantation and habitation by the space of fifty miles, and we do likewise for the other Second Colony, and that none of our subject shall be permitted or suffered to plant or inhabit behind or on the back of them towards the mainland without express license of the council of that colony in writing their unto first had and obtain. And we do also ordain, establish, and agree for us, our heirs and successors, that each of the said colonies shall have a council of thirteen members which shall govern and order all matters and causes, and that also there shall be a council established here in England which shall in like manner consist of thirteen persons to be for that purpose appointed by us our heirs and successors which shall be called our council of Virginia and shall from time to time have the superior managing and direction only of and for all matters that shall or may concern the government as well as the said several colonies as of and for any other part or place within the aforesaid precincts. And moreover we do grant and agree for us, our heirs and successors, that that the said several councils of and for the said several colonies shall in lawfully may be virtue hereof from time to time without any interruption of us, our heirs or successors give and take order to dig, mine, and search for all manner of mines of gold, silver, and copper as well within any part of their said several colonies as of the said mainlands on the back side of the same colonies and to have and enjoy the gold, silver, and copper to be gotten thereof to the use and behoof of the same colonies and the plantations thereof yielding therefore to us our heirs and successors the fifth part only of all the same gold and silver and the fifteenth part of all the same copper every of them shall and may have, take, and lead such and so many of our subjects as shall willingly accompany them or any of them in the said voyages and plantations also we do for us our heirs and successors declare by these presence that all and every the persons being our subjects which shall dwell and inhabit within every or any of the said several colonies and plantations and every of their children which shall happen to be born within any of the limits and precincts of the said several colonies and plantations shall have and enjoy all liberties franchises and immunities within any of our other dominions to all intents and purposes as if they had been abiding and born within this our realm of England or any other of our said dominions finally the Dutch example is illustrative and suggestive during the same decades as England's West Country men were establishing corporate capitalist imperialist hells on earth the Hapsburg family territories in northern Europe rebelled against their Spanish overlords the Dutch tended to view Spain's most Catholic King Philip II as a cruel outsider and an interloper in their comparatively liberal Protestant and modernizing society decades of rebellion produced the new United provinces of the Netherlands led by a merchant capitalist states general and powerful aristocrats the Dutch were relatively late to the empire game but they took to it very well within just a few decades the first Dutch chartered corporations went from relatively simple trading concerns incentivized to explore and annex territory to fully monopolized and militarized arms of state craft within three generations of its existence the United provinces was a global empire there they were then on the road from serfdom straight to corporatism the bonds between lord and serf dissolved replaced by the dubious exchange of temporary pay for temporary work the unbreakable unshakable authority of the king doled out to moneyed interests and portioned between corporate creatures Liberty Chronicles is a project of libertarianism.org it is produced by test terrible to learn more about Liberty Chronicles visit libertarianism.org

Hi, everyone. Welcome again to A Course in Miracles Lessons Live. What a treat we have today. Such a joyful lesson. We're up to workbook lesson 122. Get ready. Forgiveness offers everything I want. What could you want forgiveness cannot give? Do you want peace? Forgiveness offers it. Do you want happiness, a quiet mind, a certainty of purpose and a sense of worth and beauty that transcends the world? Do you want care and safety and the warmth of sure protection always? Do you want a quietness that cannot be disturbed? A gentleness that never can be hurt? A deep abiding comfort and a rest so perfect it can never be upset. All this forgiveness offers you and more. It sparkles on your eyes as you awake and gives you joy with which to meet the day. It soothes your forehead while you sleep and rest upon your eyelids so you see no dreams of fear and evil, malice and attack. And when you wake again, it offers you another day of happiness and peace. All this forgiveness offers you and more.  It lets you recognize the Son of God and clears your memory of all dead thoughts so that remembrance of your Father can arise across the threshold of your mind. What would you want forgiveness cannot give? What gifts but these are worthy to be sought? What fancied value, trivial effect or transient promise never to be kept can hold more hope than what forgiveness brings? Why would you seek an answer other than the answer that will answer everything? Here is the perfect answer given to imperfect questions, meaningless requests, half-hearted willingness to hear and less than halfway diligence and partial trust. Here is the answer. Seek for it no more. You will not find another one instead. This plan for your salvation cannot change nor can it fail. Be thankful it remains exactly as he planned it. Changeously it stands before you like an open door with warmth and welcome calling from beyond the doorway, bidding you to enter in and make yourself at home where you belong. What answer would you stand outside while all of heaven waits for you within? Forgive and be forgiven and as you give you will receive. There is no plan but this for the salvation of the Son of God. Let us today rejoice that this is so for here we have an answer clear and plain beyond deceit in its simplicity. While all the complexities of the world has spun, fragile cobwebs disappear before the power and the majesty of this extremely simple statement of the truth. Here is the answer. Do not turn away in aimless wandering again. Accept salvation now. It is the gift of God and not the world. The world can give no gifts of any value to a mind that has received what God has given as its own. God will salvation be received today and that the intricacies of your dreams no longer hide their nothingness from you. Open your eyes today and look upon a happy world of safety and of peace. Forgiveness is the means by which it comes to take the place of hell. In quietness it rises up to greet your open eyes and fill your heart with deep tranquility as ancient truths forever newly born arise in your awareness. What you will remember then can never be described yet your forgiveness offers it to you. Remembering the gifts forgiveness gives. We undertake our practicing today with hope and faith that this will be the day salvation will be ours. Earnestly and gladly we will seek for it today aware. We hold the key within our hands, accepting heavens answer to the hell we made, but where we would remain no more.  Begin in hopefulness for we have reached the turning point at which the road becomes far easier. And now the way is short that yet we travel. We are close indeed to the appointed ending of the dream. Take into happiness as you begin these practice periods where they hold out the sure rewards of questions answered and what your acceptance of the answer brings. Today, it will be given you to feel the peace forgiveness offers and the joy, lifting of the veil holds out to you. Before the light you will receive today, the world will fade until it disappears and you will see another world arise you have no words to picture. Now we walk directly into light. And we receive the gifts that have been held in store for us since time began, kept waiting for today. This offers everything you want.  Let not your gifts received throughout the day, as you return again to meet a world of shifting change and bleak appearances, retain your gifts and clear awareness as you see the changeless in the heart of change, the light of truth behind appearances. Be tempted not to let your gifts slip by and drift into forgetfulness, but hold them firmly in your mind by your attempts to think of them at least a minute as each quarter of an hour passes by. Remind yourself how precious are these gifts with this reminder, which has power to hold your gifts in your awareness through the day. Forgiveness offers everything I want. Today, I have accepted this is true. Today, I have received the gifts of God. Wow. Wow, wow, wowza. So, this is where you can just toss caution to the wind. This is a day where you can toss all your concern thoughts, all your doubt thoughts, all your hesitations, all your resistance. Imagine that all that I just mentioned was like feathers and you've got a bowl of feathers, and it's a windy day and you're just toss the concerns grievances toss them out into the wind. You can take them, let your concerns, let your doubts, let your hesitations. You know, I remember, I did the workbook lessons in conjunction with the text and I remember that that today's lesson coincides with chapter 15 of the holy relationship and the holy instant. Basically, it's the saying this is the only real relationship you have, meaning your only real relationship is with God. You and you have no other. And then everything in this world that we call relationships, those are just reflections. So when you're in alignment with God, when you're in alignment with the Holy Spirit and Jesus, when you're in alignment with the source, with the creator, then everything you perceive is lovely.  The world has not left its source.  And that's why forgiveness offers everything I want. I was saying earlier before we started, this is like, this is like the great poets, you know, Rumi and Kabir and you think of the transcendentalists of Emerson and Thoreau and Whitman, you think of the great poets of all time, and then Jesus. Thank you. If this isn't a love poem. I don't know what a love poem is and I like the, the poems of enlightenment throughout the ages, I liked, you know, everything that Khalil Gibran was sharing so poetic, you know, these, these Middle Eastern Eastern poets and here we have Jesus Christ giving us a love letter of home to wake us up. Imagine that today is, is kind of like a spiritual Valentine's Day where Jesus is in all of us a spiritual Valentine. Whenever I read this lesson, my heart just melts. I am liquid. I am totally, I am totally melted by this so I hope that when we recall this lesson forgiveness offers everything I want I hope you can think of like the melting flowing, the best expansive feeling of the gifts that forgiveness offers. And these are the real gifts. If anyone tries to tell you that that money is a gift or flowers are a gift or a day at the spa is a gift or a day at the hot tubs, or a walk on a sunny day, or any of the material gifts, you know, Rolls Royce's and diamond rings and golden, and all the things that the world, you know, perfume, whatever. No, no, nada, nada, nada, nada, I'm not interested in anything but the gifts that forgiveness offer me because forgiveness is a gift that lights my mind up. If my mind is lit, then everything is lit, because everything's in mind. So, that's the end of of projection. That's the end of blaming. That's the end of pointing the finger that's the end of absolutely every form of fear is ended in accepting the gifts that forgiveness offers. So I think that's important, you know, yesterday we were looking at the lesson forgiveness is the key to happiness and now Jesus is turning it up like ooh, it's so soft it's so melodious. It's, it's just tenderly caressing our heart with this lesson forgiveness offers everything that I want. I just feel like that is the greatest experience the only experience this is our, our atonement celebration this is our joy celebration for the whole universe this is our happy laughter celebration. This is our glee. This is all of our even our childhood childlike glee is all in this one lesson today all glee is contained in forgiveness. So thank you for joining me. I am with you, we walk through the day in a day of very, very much happiness our steps are very happy today as we lightly kind of dance across like Fred Astaire and Ginger Rogers we're just going to be dancing across the screen today like Rogers Fred Astaire and Ginger Rogers seen from a movie you know where we we feel that lightheartedness we just are tap dancing but we can barely touch the ground today, because forgiveness offers everything I want and we are lifted. The veil is lifted from our eyes, our perception is cleaned, and we're clean and clear today we're we're with God. Thank you. Thank you and many blessings.

So without further ado, we have a super fun day today. Lots of good food in a fantastic dinner recipe. So let's get started. It's 7.04 a.m. and I just filled up my first cup of water for the day. You can see that I have a new gallon water bottle. So my blue bottle cracked. I think it was my fault when I put the lid on. I think I pushed too hard. So it had a big crack right here. Whenever I would fill up my smaller cup, it would just leak everywhere. So I ordered this one off of Amazon. It does have all the fun. Hydrate yourself. Don't give up. It's a really pretty kind of tight eye pattern. I'll link it down below for you guys. It comes in a ton of colors. It's less than $20 and it's a different type of plastic. It's more of like a soft plastic. So I don't anticipate that it will crack as easily. But you can see I'm at the 7 a.m. mark and I just filled up my first cup. So today's goal is to drink this entire gallon of water as always. So here is my breakfast. I'm super excited. It looks so delicious. So I decided to go ahead and make myself some avocado toast. So I just used this buttermilk bread. One slice of this is three smart points. I cooked up one full egg and one egg white here in this little microwave egg cooker. This thing is a game changer. You guys, I bought it off of Amazon. I'll link it down below for you guys. You literally throw your egg in there in the microwave for one minute and you have a perfectly cooked shaped egg for toast or English muffins. So I went ahead and cooked my egg in there with just a little bit of the Trader Joe's onion salt. These are the eggs that I absolutely love. You can find these at Walmart. Really the best price for these is at Walmart. And then I fried up in a pan just three slices of this Jones Canadian bacon. It's only one point for three slices, 60 calories, but 10 grams of protein. So I like to add it to breakfast for a real big punch of protein. I weighed out 50 grams of avocado here on my food scale. Again, I'll link this down below for you guys as well. If you haven't seen my 20 must haves for weight loss, check out that video. I go over all of my must haves moving into 2021 for weight loss. And my food scale is one of those. I'll make sure that video is linked as well for you guys. And then I just have a little bowl here mixed of blackberries and blueberries. So my lunch is one point for the Canadian bacon, three for the toast, three for the avocado, seven smart points and it's packed with healthy fats, protein, and I'm getting in some fruit. I am meal prepping. As you can see here, we've got the whole setup going on, but I'm not hungry for a snack this morning. It's already 10 o'clock. So I don't really think I need a snack, but I am going to drink this Better Butch Kombucha. I count this as one smart point. This is the morning glory, which is basically peach and black tea. It is delicious. It's 30 calories for half of the can. So it's 60 calories total. I think it ends up being two or three points, but I just count it as one point. So this, I guess, is my morning snack. Are you in the kitchen with me today, babe? Say, we're prepping our meals for the week and I am scavenging and vacuuming up anything that falls, right? Yeah, you sure are princess. And you, you've been in and out between outside in the snow, yeah, and in bed. You sure have. Do you guys see this? That's Lola's little burrow. She's dug out on my side of the bed so that she can lay in there. You too, not spoiled or anything. Nope, not spoiled at all.  And I say finished, but it's not finished. We're still waiting on the blind that our contractor measured wrong. So we had to order a new one and the corner shelves that are going in our shower, but the bathroom is incredible. I did post some pictures on my personal Facebook page, but I wanted to show you guys. So are you ready for the big reveal? We're obsessed. We are so obsessed with our bathroom. It's everything that we wanted. We literally could not have asked for more when it came to what we were after. So when you first walk in, you see the double sink vanity here. What I love about the new vanity is the cabinets. They are soft clothes. So no more slamming cabinets in the middle of the night.  We have nice bronze. These are the spigot type of faucets, which we love. I ended up going to Target and finding these brushed bronze tissue paper holder and a couple of soap dispensers for us. And then the mirrors with the matching light fixtures. These were purchased off of Etsy. They're super cute. The lights, I don't know if you can see, but they're mason jars. And it just brings that whole like rustic vibe that we were after here in our bathroom. The mirrors, I love too because they have these nice metal brackets on there that are bronze, oil rubbed bronze. So it all kind of ties together. So here is another look at the vanity. Oh, one more thing I want to show you guys is it may not translate on camera, but I don't know if you can see that this is a rough edge. So it's kind of a jagged edge. It's called polished chisel. We had that done on all of the exposed edges because again, rustic. It gives it that really rustic vibe. We ended up putting our hamper here, just like in our old bathroom. And then this is the window in the bathroom that doesn't have a blind because it was measured incorrectly. The light fixture is this rusted metal light fixture from Etsy. It's just really cool. It looks fantastic in here. We popped in an Edison bulb. And then this is the star of the show in my opinion. And that is my makeup vanity. So if you remember, there was a garden tub in this corner, I'll pop a picture in right here for you. I'll kind of throw some before and afters in as we go through the tour. But there was a garden tub here that we never used that just collected dust. And I am really in need of a makeup vanity because I love to do my makeup in my hair. And it's just convenient to have my own space for that. So we actually have this custom made with seven drawers. We did not put hardware here on the middle drawer just because I didn't want to have to lean onto the middle drawer and have that hardware kind of gouge into me as I was getting ready. But you guys, it turned out so nice. It's everything that I need with soft clothes drawers. I've got it laid out where like this is the makeup I use every day. And I just have it laid out so perfect for me. And we decided not to put a big mirror on this wall because we couldn't find one that we liked that went with the rustic aesthetic. And actually I'm really glad that we didn't because I've just been using this LED mirror here. It just turns on and you have nice light so that you can put your makeup on. And the other thing about having it up here on the wall is that the mirror itself would be really far away as I was getting ready in this. I can bring right up to my face, see my makeup. I can even do my hair in this mirror. I'll link this down below for you guys. I got this on Amazon.  And then of course my brushes. And then we decided instead of the mirror to do just kind of a couple of floating shelves with some rustic decor. So these shelves are adorable. They're from Hobby Lobby. I found this cute candle at TJ Maxx. This plant is also from Hobby Lobby as well as this one up here. And then these trees were in Hobby Lobby's Christmas section. So they were super, super affordable and they just go really well in here. So this kind of brings in that entire rustic vibe above my vanity. And I think it looks much better than if we would have popped in a mirror. Hello again. She's laying on our new rug. This is our new flooring that we picked for our bathroom. We will be carrying this flooring throughout our entire house. And then our shower. So I'm going to pop in a picture here of what the shower was before. So we decided to go with a floor to ceiling walk-in shower so that we had a huge glorious shower. And it came out better than I could have ever even asked for. So we're waiting for little corner shelves to go right here in the corner. But I'll take you guys into the shower. But this is the only step up. You literally have to just step up this one little area. So we went with that rock floor that carried through to the bench. We had him put in two small niches. One for Troy and then a larger niche for me over here which makes it really nice and convenient. We picked a tile that resembles wood. So again for that rustic feel. And then over here we decided to go with two shower heads and the removable wand. I definitely wanted a wand to like spray off the walls and things. We went with an eight inch kind of rain shower head here and this big 12 inch shower head here. So when you're in here it is literally glorious with the two shower heads. And then again we have the wand as an option if we want to spray down ourselves or the walls. And the dials allow you to turn on each of the shower heads in the wand individually which is also really really nice. And then as you walk out of the shower we have a linen cabinet which we had one of these before and it's a huge game changer. When we had the double sink vanity and my makeup vanity made we had a linen cabinet made that was the same dimensions as our old one because we just loved it so much. I mean storage wise it's amazing. I mean it really makes a big difference on bathroom storage. And then this one this linen cabinet we had extra shelves put in so that we could even have more storage instead of being limited. Our other linen cabinet only had two shelves so we have this one made with four. We used the same hand hardware and the soft clothes above our toilet. We picked up this cute mousse from Hobby Lobby and then of course our same toilet that we had before. Troy went ahead and replaced the grate with one that matches a little bit better. And then we bought new toilet paper holders that are black nice heavy duty metal toilet paper and towel bar holder that hold our towels. And then we ended up going with a solid wood door which we're so incredibly happy that we did. We just stained it a very neutral stain so you could see all of the knots in it.  This cute mousse head we used to put our towel on. And this is from Hobby Lobby. And then we've searched high and low for a rustic large enough clock above our door to see from the shower. And this was at lows for about $40. So we picked that up. So that's kind of what you see as you walk out of the bathroom. But we're really happy. I mean it truly turned out better than we could have expected. It's everything that we wanted. And more it cost almost double what we initially anticipated but we truly are so happy. And this is the house we are going to live in forever. So it was worth the investment for us. Oh one last thing. We replaced the crummy fan with this one that actually has a fan, a light and heat. So that's really nice for these cold winter nights. So that's our bathroom. Let me know down in the comments what you guys think. If you like it, if you see anything that you would change, let me know down in the comments. But yeah, we are pretty darn happy with how everything turned out. We couldn't seriously be any happier. So this is my lunch for today. If you didn't know our oven broke about a week ago. So we don't have any access to the oven portion, just the stove top. So we've been making some modifications as you saw in meal prep on Monday to make dinners without having an oven. So I utilized my instant pot for this. This is sausage and rice. I added a ton of vegetables, zucchini, carrots, onions. I used white rice and wild rice to give it a little bit of heartiness. It's really, really delicious. It definitely has that Creole or Cajun vibe, which I really, really liked. My husband cared for it a little less than I did. So I don't know that he'll eat the leftover. So I thought that I would do that and use it up instead of throwing it away and have it for lunch today. So this is seven points. There's some chicken sausage in there, the rice, the veggies, and then I am on my water number three or four for the day. I'll definitely get the gallon done. I don't know if I'll have a dessert after lunch, but if I do, I'll be back to show you. Dessert are these trolley, sour, gummy minis. These are super good in the Valentine section. I showed these in my grocery haul. This little package is 45 calories and two points.  So that's going to finish up my lunch. And I didn't mention, but I did put it on the screen that my lunch was seven points. And this is two points. It's almost three o'clock. I'm going to have a snack. I'm swamped today. So my snack is quick and simple. I still have the Elani new munchies bars from that video I did months and months ago, testing these out. They do hurt my stomach. I can only have them very, very far in a few between. I think I have two or three left. So I'm actually going to have one. It's been a long time. They taste good. They do not have the best ingredients and the malatul in them just kills my stomach, especially if I have them back to back days, but it's been a long time. And again, I need something quick and easy. So I'm going to have one of those. And then one of the Aura Bora waters and Cactus Rose. These came from Thrive Market. You guys, these waters are the best. I ordered $50 worth of these sparkling waters because they were on sale. Perfection when it comes to ingredients. Definitely check out Thrive. They're having a huge promo right now where you get 25% off of your first order and a free gift when you join. They have one month and year-long memberships. Love Thrive. I just put out a video on Sunday of a Thrive haul for 2021. So I'll link that video down below for you. The water is zero points and the Elanini bar is five. So this is my five smart point snack for tonight's dinner. We're making 30 minute Mongolian beef. I'm always here for a recipe that's 30 minutes. So I'm really excited for this. Some Chinese fake out vibes. So let me show you what's in dinner. First, you'll need some oil. This is the chosen foods, avocado oil, cornstarch. We are going to put our Mongolian beef over some rice. So I'm using this organic white rice, minced garlic, fresh ginger or ground ginger, whatever you have on hand, a brown sugar alternative. I'm using Lakonto. Again, don't forget about it being linked down below for 15% off for you. Soy sauce, salt, and then you need some steak or some beef. So I'm actually using this beef from my butcher box. So this is the grass fed beef tri tip steak and this is a little over a pound. I am going to cut off any fat. So I figured it about a pound for the calories of meat. This is for my butcher box. Again, butcher boxes linked down below for you guys with $30 off your first box. Highly recommend. The meat is out of this world and then you'll need some green onions. So let's get started. First thing I'm going to do is slice up the steak into thin slices. And then we only want the green portion of the green onions. So I'm going to slice all of those off as well.  So into a Ziploc bag, I put one third cup of cornstarch. I'm going to add the meat to the bag and shake it up. So I added one tablespoon of oil and the steak covered in cornstarch to my pan over medium high. We're going to let this cook until it's crispy. And then in another pan here I started two cups of water. I'm going to cook one cup of uncooked rice and that's going to be what we're going to spare with the Mongolian beef. The rice is coming right along and the beef is done. So we're going to remove the beef, add it to a plate here with a little bit of salt and pop in the garlic. I added in a big scoop of minced garlic. I'm going to let it just start to cook a little bit until it's fragrant. I added in one third cup of soy sauce, one third cup of the brown sugar, and about a third cup of water. And then we're going to stir this and let it come to a boil. Once it comes to a boil, add in your ginger and reintroduce your steak to the mix. We're going to let this cook just for a few minutes until it has a chance to meld all the flavors. As the beef simmers, it's going to thicken up from the corn starch that we added in the beginning. Once it's nice and thick, we're going to add in the cut up green onions, stir those in, let those soften just a couple of minutes and it's ready to go. And the rice is also ready to go. So I'll plate this up, be back to share points and calories. So here is my dinner. So the Mongolian beef makes six servings. It is four smart points per serving on all the plans just for the beef mixture, which this is a quite a bit of beef and sauce. And then I have three points worth of rice as well. So my dinner is going to be seven smart points. It is 154 calories just for the beef mixture. My gallon of water is done for the day.  I'm having smart sweets. So I have all the different flavors. These are the peach rings. I love this. This is probably number two on my list of favorites. And then these are the gummy worms that they released around Halloween. These are okay. And then the sweet fish are also really good. These are similar to Swedish fish. And then the licorice or the twist, they release not too long go either. They're okay. I would pair them kind of along with the gummy worms. And then I also have the watermelon ones, which are my very favorite. That's actually what I'm going to have tonight. Those are the sour melon bites. This whole bag and there is a ton in here is only three smart points, 100 calories. I love smart sweets. I love candy. So this is a great dupe for me for only three points. And there is a ton in this bag. So this is going to be tonight's dessert. Look at all of them. I mean, there's just a ton in this bag. Can't beat it for three points. I also have smart sweets linked down below with 10% off. They do offer free shipping as well. So definitely check them out and use the code in the description box for 10% off. Thank you so much for coming along with me on another What I Eat in a Day on WW.

I'm your host Rich here on behalf of RichTV Live with our very special guest, Brian Williamson, the CEO of Jericho Energy Ventures, Inc. How are you doing today, Brian? You're doing great, Rich. Thanks for having me. Hey, my pleasure. Excited to have you on the show. And why don't we get started, and you can tell us a little bit about yourself and how you got started with Jericho Energy Ventures, Inc. Sure, we'd love to. So my background is kind of interesting. I have a legal background, accounting background, finance background, and found myself as a consultant for Anderson gravitating towards the energy world. You know, didn't have a directional point when I started my career. So energy seemed interesting, stuck with energy, and how we are 20 plus years later, and I'm still doing energy. Did it privately for most of those 20 years? The transition for me in coming to Jericho was going from a private world into the public world. And, you know, to do it, I couldn't have asked for a better partner in Allen Wilson. So Allen is a 25-year veteran of the public market. And so when Allen and I were working together on a mining company, he had approached me about doing something in the energy space on the public side. And he gave me all the good things with it. And sort of having been in private oil and gas, energy, and looking at all the things that were going on and the excitement in the public market, I thought, what a great time to do it. Because, you know, in 2014, when we got started together in Jericho, the tide was rolling out in oil and gas. We started the year, but the year fell apart in prices less. And our thinking was there, you know, let's build this company the right way with high quality assets with solid shareholder base. And the tide will come in eventually for energy again. And so that was sort of our start. And that was sort of the foundation of Jericho in 2014. Fantastic. And we see oil prices today at the highest in three years. So we've definitely turned around. And which was expected. Negative oil wasn't going to last forever. And that was a great buying opportunity. We were calling the buy, like left-wing center, when it was negative oil. I was like, when are you ever going to see oil negative again? So probably never. And that was a very interesting time in history, really, for oil. Can you tell us a little bit about your main goals for Jericho Energy Ventures for the last six months of 2021? Yeah, absolutely. So, you know, we agree with everything you said about oil. But as a company, we made a transition. So in 2021, we transitioned from being just an oil and gas public listed company to a broader based energy company really focusing on the energy transition.  Right. So with the shareholders we have, you know, backing this transition with a capital raise in the middle of 2020, we went about looking about how to transition Jericho as we rolled in the 2021 and the transition involved bringing us into the hydrogen world. We see hydrogen as a really critical element of what's to come in this energy transition to a broader, cleaner energy spectrum. And so as we roll through 2021, the expectation for us is to continue down that path, to continue to adding high quality hydrogen technologies to our portfolio. Because what we see in hydrogen is that there is a lot of things that were started there in the first revolution, right. So Governor Schwarzenegger kind of kicked off hydrogen when he pushed it as part of his gubernatorial campaign in California and an industry was born of amazing science and amazing technology, but it fell apart just like everything else with the financial crisis. The only difference being hydrogen never saw the light of day again. It wasn't a part of Obama's, you know, energy transition. He was really focused on solar and wind. So hydrogen kind of got left behind. And so what we've seen is because it is such a complicated material science that it's taken that long for some of these technologies to see the light of day. And we think that Jericho is just a vehicle to bring them to the market. And we see ourselves as the place where we can help you, the scientist, the inventor who has commercial ready game changing technology, transition to the commercial world. And that's exactly what we did. And what we're doing with HTI, which was our acquisition in Q1 of this year. So as we roll through the second half of 2021, we have two objectives. One is to be a big part of the hydrogen production value chain. So we've been very focused on investment opportunities in that space. And number two is really delivering to the world the hydrogen technology, zero emissions steam boiler system. And I think for us, it's showing the world just the size, the sheer size of that market. So everybody focuses on mobility, cars, planes, trains, we see it every day, it's out in the street, it's in the air, it's on the water. But people have not seen the scale and the breadth and depth of the emissions of the commercial industrial steam market. It represents almost a third of our fossil fuel pollution, our greenhouse gas emissions. But because we don't see it in the city or in the urban centers, it's often the hills, it's over the mountains in the inland areas where you just don't see these factories. It's a problem. And so our agenda is to take our boiler, to take each TI's patented game changing technology and show the industrial and commercial steam market what they can do at the same price with zero emissions. That's great. Now, it's important when you're building a business to have a strong management team and directors, especially right now when you're building a small cab company. So can you talk a little bit about your management team and some of the previous success in the clean energy sector and the public markets? Yeah, so I think I break our team down into three groups and three things. So what makes what we do novel for the folks that we try and bring on to the platform and we invest in. So it's the core corporate structure, the stability and access that's important, right? So between myself, Ben Holman, who's our CFO, Ryan Breen, who runs corporate development and Adam and Tony, our IR guys, we have great access and the ability to bring those technologies with C level support to the marketplace. What is the second piece of our value proposition is the technology team that we have assembled. So now most of the things that you're going to see from us have amazing inventors. And then we complement them with technology folks, engineering folks, material science folks who can then help them cross that last mile, bring the technology across the commercial side because it's a big deal going from one deployment to 20 to 50 to 100, right? And so for us in doing that and partnering with the Capella group and their access to these tremendous labs and depths of talent at Stanford, MIT, Caltech, Cal Poly, where we can go for the right expertise that we need in any tech that we look to invest in or we put on our platform. And the third piece I think that makes us unique is who supports us and the shareholder base that we have put together since the beginning and in that support of the energy transition, right? So our shareholder base is led by Ed Breen, the CEO of DuPont, chairman of DuPont. His sage advice and wisdom and having been a Jericho shareholder since day one really has been guiding for us. You take Ed and you complement him with the Bellsberg family, right? Now run by Straszelnik, the chairman of DVF and head of take two media. They bring us such wealth of information and knowledge on how to take these microcaps, these novel technologies and make them multi-billion dollar opportunities. And then, you know, so the thing that you'll see with that those shareholders and our others is that they're amazingly successful people from all different walks of life that bring just a tremendous amount of support to the company, both financially, obviously, and also from guidance perspective. Very good. Now, Brian, we know that clean energy space is a major focus for the world and Jericho Energy Ventures has made some very interesting investments in different subsidiaries. You mentioned a little bit about it. Can you bring in, can you go through these subsidiaries and how much each one will impact the balance sheet as they grow and capture market share? So the first acquisition we made with HTI, right? So that is our clean to steam boiler. And I said this a little bit earlier. This is a 30 billion dollar market. The addressable market is enormous. And I don't think anyone realizes how much steam is used. And what's more interesting to me is that not only is that a steam market, it's that 35% of those are coal based emissions. So there's actually coal based solutions still deployed today in the industrial commercial space. And so for us, HTI's ability to change that with a solution that's cost effective, its impact on our balance sheet is pretty negligible. So we bought it for stock. And the reality is that we expect HTI to be rather new positive in 2022. So less than a year after acquisition, we expect it to be revenue positive. And just to give you, take it a step further, right? So we're a 200 ish million dollar market cap company, right? The folks that are ahead of us in our industry, and this is how much the industry has grown and how much opportunity is there. They traded two to four to $20 billion. They do $10 million to $15 million a quarter in sales. So they do not very much in sales, but they traded 20 times the market cap of Jericho. So in terms of how we expect the space to impact our balance sheet, we expect it to be enormous opportunity for us to grow, right? We traded 200 million dollar market cap. $10 million a quarter is 10 boilers. That is nothing. That is nothing. So from my perspective, the opportunity that people should think about is, I want to be a part of that parabolic change that's happening, right? So everybody who invest in companies like us and us now, they're alpha generated, right? We find them through guys just like you, people who do their own hard work and their homework, right? When you reach a certain level, you get all the funds, you get all the ETFs, you get everybody who wants to do beta clean energy. So in our world, this is the time. This is the difference, right? So the impact is enormous. We acquired each TI. We were a $45 million market cap company. The potential and the opportunity and the patented technology we bought have now made us a $200 million market cap company. And we think this is just the beginning. We think we're in the first inning of this space. That's great. I love to hear that. And I know our investors in our community will love to hear that too because we pride ourselves in getting into undervalued, underappreciated, underexposed companies first. That's why we love to do these interviews to introduce you to our investment community. Now in saying that, if Jericho Energy Ventures Inc. were to compare itself to its competitors in this sector and you touched on it a little bit, what would set you guys apart? So what's key here is hydrogen has to be used and applied, and so if you think about the applications for hydrogen, we have one of the only patented zero emission applications out there. So we have a 100% green solution that is patented. It's the only one on the market right now. So the value proposition for us and the opportunity set for folks who are looking at us is to be involved and get up to be a part of Jericho earlier because things change quickly. But the reality is hydrogen is only growing and we're early in its participation and we're early in with hydrogen. So to us, all of our competitors have huge opportunity for growth, but small companies just like ours that have game-changing technologies. You remember, this is patented. With the guidance of Fortune 500 CEOs, we think that this is an amazing marketplace, amazing opportunity to go from a $200 million market cap to a $5 to $10 billion. It's not unheard of and it's all about the beta money. So the people who are doing alpha-based investing who listen to you and others and talk to you and people like that, those guys are making good thoughtful decisions. But the bigger pool of money comes from all the ETFs. ESG-based ETFs, Clean Energy ETFs have swelled a thousand percent. There's $700 billion in them now and that goes to all the companies that are big. It doesn't go to the little guys like us. So every person that invests in a company like Jericho or Jericho, they've made good thoughtful decisions because they've had to find these unique opportunities just like us at this stage. It's important with our community to understand the share structure. Can you go through the share structure? I believe you got about 220 million shares issued upstanding. Maybe a little bit about how much is held by management and insiders and how you plan to attract institutional and retail investment. Yeah, so we are about 220 million shares outstanding, really simple structure, just common stock, nothing else outstanding. So we think about our share structure in this sense. So the handful of families I mentioned earlier management and insiders have about 75% of the stock. So in essence, I could tell you where 75% of those shares exist. And whether it's the Breen family, the Bellowsburg family, the Hegna family, the Graves family, the McKenna, all self-made, amazing guys and families that have supported us since the beginning. Between them, management, the board, there's about 75% of the shares. So it's tightly held, and in terms of support, they've been amazingly supportive. These are the same folks who I said when the tide was rolling out, and you said this earlier, but the foil went negative. It went negative in the second quarter of 2020. These are the same folks when we went to them and said, look, we need to be broader-based, we need to think about this energy transition that's coming. We love our assets. We're surrounded by lots of bankruptcies, and we've done an amazing job of managing our oil assets through those bankruptcies and through that downturn of zero oil. But when we said we need to do more, we need to differentiate ourselves and focus on this transition, they all stepped up and wrote a check and financed us. So think about Q2, pandemic, oil's negative, and here we are, our investors stepping up and backing Jericho to keep us growing and supporting this transition. So can't say enough good things about them and the support from them, the board, and our team. Fantastic. Now, it's extremely important for us here at Rich TV Live to understand why an investor would want to buy this stock. So if there was one thing you would want shareholders to know that are watching this interview today about Jericho energy ventures, what would it be? The best is yet to come. We're a $200 million Canadian market cap company and we're just getting started. We have 40 megawatts of demand for our boilers right now that we are working on bringing across the finish line to sales. That would eclipse any number we had targeted in terms of deployments in 2022. So for us, you know, this is the most exciting time we've ever seen. You have the US, you have Canada, you have the EU, everybody focused on bringing hydrogen to the forefront of the energy transition. I mean, look at Canada's $50 next year, $50 per ton of carbon emission, the $50 tax going to 130. We have states in the United States that are outlawing the use of fossil fuels in 2025 and 2027. So not only do you have this shift, but you have the regulatory environment pivoting to say, listen, this may be painful, but this is the way we're going because emissions aren't free. We just choose to pay for them or not pay for them when they're emitted. What is the best way for shareholders to get in contact with the company? There will be shareholders from all over the world that will see this interview. Is there an email or a phone number? What is the best way for them to reach you? So our website is, it has all the contact information, which is www.JaricoEnergyVentures.com and then our IR and Business Development Guide, Adam at JericoEnergyVentures.com, Tony at JericoEnergyVentures.com, or myself, the CEO, Brian at JericoEnergyVentures.com. We are all available 24-7 to answer anybody's questions that they have or more information. Well, thank you for joining us today and very excited to learn more about Jerico Energy Ventures. We'll be definitely putting it on our watch list, putting in our radar and talking with our members in our community about it.

if you're a little bit further along with your horse what you can do is you can keep the bend. So I'm going to demonstrate that a little bit here and how that might look. This is kind of a up-the-level type of thing so you don't have to do this especially in the beginning but I'm going to keep his bend left which means my left leg remains forward and then I'm going to push him in a little to come through this cone so it's almost like a leg yield.  That's real important because if I hold again I'm going to create tension and bracing in their body.

Nice one there, one of their top pitching prospects. Grats on that there, Cleveland, going to Sean M. Sean M. Grats Sean, base and base. Quite a little bit over there, but I don't know. I'm not sure you're not messing around over there. Gold, James Wood, five of 50, I keep dying on you. Nice one there, congrats on that San Diego. Now a national, of course. Now what's up Manny? We've got Colton Couser, nice one there, that is 17 out of 99 for the Orioles. And we did pull a gold sig, it's signed in gold, but it's the silver parallel. That is 31 out of 100, Simon Juan, hit the Juan. Going to the Metz, Brendan L. Grats Brendan. Worm's getting banned now. Of course, Manny. Band's coming out last year. Oh yeah, yep. It's random you're the best team and giving me the best card. Got you pecs, easy, easy. Alex DeHaces, and base, is that an email? Oh boy. Yeah, if only it was that easy. When'd you send an email, Manny?  The shipping, gotcha. Okay, that's fine. Base, there's a West Cath, five out of 75 for the Whitesongers, fair. Got a nice one here, 23 out of 50, Jordan Lawler.

Of course, Forrest pulled a one of one of him yesterday. Weird that we had like four census hits in the breaker chat and I like emphasized that one and Lane goes, I bet the house that Sam was gonna emphasize any of those, it was gonna be that one. Yeah. Oh yeah, big time A team is back tonight. Donnie here. Do, do, do, do, do. Let's hope in the U.K. I'm in San Diego. Sadie's and William Virgoia. What was it?

There you go, Ryan with a South Relic. No Carl, I haven't ordered anything since that incident. Probably never again. Probably not. This is gonna make me sound like a jerk, but I mean, I think you'd assume this. Yeah. But James Shriantos and Alexis Hernandez, we were talking about it once and I was like, I really wanna give Donnie a redemption, but I'm gonna be rooting so hard that he doesn't get it right. Like I'm gonna be rooting so much against you. Victor Acosta, 31 out of 99. Nice one there for the Padres. Nice one here, going out to the Padres again.

That is George Valera going to the Guardians, 198 out of 200. Hey, baby, he had a bad time. Fair, Jonathan, fair. Fair, that is how the game goes sometimes. Well, if you're drinking apple juice, you almost soaked it out, but would you ever want to drink apple juice again? Yeah, I mean, I'd probably get over it, but if I liked apple juice enough, I'd probably just say it's male, and it's got, what are you just spreading false rumors to push this pro Anthony Richardson narrative? There's South Relic and Colton Couser. There's Orange, Felix Valerio, 24 of 25. Nice one there for the brewers. Nice one here going to the Dodgers, Jorbit Vivas, 41 out of 50. Legitimate reports, oh God. I feel like every year we get weird stuff, weird stuff that quarterbacks do, you know what I mean? Of course. Like the whole patch of the home's catch up and steak thing became a big thing. There's Isaac Pacheco, 34 out of 99, going to the Tigers. Catch up and steak's not that random. No, no, it's not.  You ruined it. Sell some more cards for break money out. There you go. That's how it goes right there. Rinse and repeat, rinse and repeat there, Jonathan. That's the cycle. Marcel Meyer and Edison Polina. That's what I always do. If I sell like a big card, I'm like, oh, now I have more money to buy cards or join breaks. Gold blaze Jordan, base 49 out of 50 for the inks. Yeah, well done steak and catch up. That's a little- Oh yeah. Colson Montgomery Primordial 58 out of 75 for the White Sox. That's what Caleb likes to do.

Viral vectors are promising tools for gene therapy and vaccines, with viral vector-based vaccines enhancing immunogenicity without an adjuvant and inducing a robust cytotoxic T lymphocyte response to eliminate virus-infected cells. Many types of viruses have been developed as vaccine vectors, each with unique features and parental virus-related risks, and genetically altered vectors have been developed to improve efficacy and safety. Clinical trials have provided important information on factors such as toxicity, administration dose tolerated, and optimized vaccination strategy, and this review highlights major viral vectors that are the best candidates for clinical use.

Welcome back for our third video here dealing with the problem of apportionment. We've discussed four methods so far, the methods proposed by Hamilton, Jefferson, Adams, and Webster. And we're going to end up with the method that is in use today by Congress to apportion representatives. It's called the Huntington Hill method and it's been in use since the 1940 census. It's sometimes also called the method of equal proportions, but the reason it's called the Huntington Hill method is because it gives credit to the two mathematicians who came up with this method. So how does it work? It's similar to Adams, Jefferson, and Webster's method in that we have a modified divisor. It's just one last new way of rounding. We incorporate rounding according to the value of the geometric mean of the lower and upper quotas for any particular standard quota. And that's a mouthful of mathematical terms. So I'm going to try to break that down for you. First of all, if the lower quota were in and the upper quota would then be in plus one because it would be one larger. If the lower quota were two, the upper quota would be three, two plus one. Then we find the geometric mean of those two numbers by multiplying them together, two times three, and then take the square root of that. That value is called the geometric mean. And what Huntington and Hill suggested is that if, for any particular standard quota, if it were less than the value of the geometric mean, we round down. And if it's larger than the value of the geometric mean, we round up. So it helps to have a table of some of these geometric means so you can get an idea of what we're dealing with. So if you had a number between one and two, the geometric mean of one and two, I've multiplied one times two and taken the square root, you get 1.414. So if a state, for instance, had a quota of 1.40, they would stay at one because it's less than 1.414. But if they had a quota of 1.52, that's bigger than 1.414 so it would go up to two. Now what you notice is that the decimal portion of this geometric mean gets steadily larger as the size of the lower quota integer gets larger and larger. So this actually ends up helping smaller states slightly more than larger states because these smaller states only have to have a decimal larger than 4.1 to get rounded up. Well, by the time you deserve 14, you've got to have a decimal larger than 4.9 to go up to the next level. So let's do a simple example of this. We're not going to go back to the 18.20 data. It's much more difficult to do this on a larger data set. Suppose a country wants to apportion 25 members to their national legislature according to the populations of their respective states. So it's a small country. They have four states. We'll call them A, B, C, and D. So these are their respective populations and that's the total population of the country, a little more than half a million. So we're going to calculate the standard divisor as a good starting point. We take the total population, divide by the number of items we want to apportion, and we get 22,995. That's how many people each state would need in order to deserve one representative. So I've got the standard divisor up here for reference. I've got all our populations again, and I've actually just started off by dividing these populations by the standard divisor. We get 13.15, 2.86, 3.58, 5.41. And what I want to do is then round each one of these values according to the associated geometric mean. Now, if you recall back to that chart, all the geometric means started with a decimal of 0.4 something. So if it's already less than 0.4, it's going to go down. It's not going to go up. So we know that 13.15 is going down to 13, and we know that one. Also, all of them, since they were in the 40s as the decimals, anything bigger than that obviously is going up. So we know that state B is going to go up to 3 and state C is going to go up to 4. This one you may not remember though. 5.41, we need to consult the table and see what the geometric mean actually is for 5. So I'm going to try to go back to that slide where we can calculate that. Here we go. With 5. So the geometric mean is 5.477. So you would need to have a decimal larger than 477 in order to go up. We go back and reference our particular country example. We have 4.1. That's not larger than 477, so it goes down. We get 5. I add all those up. Oh, and it works out to be perfectly 25 in this case. If it had not equaled 25, then just like Jefferson's method or Adam's method or Webster's method, we would pick a modified divisor, divide again, and add up and see if we get 25 after we've rounded according to the geometric mean. So it involves guess and check somewhat too, just like Jefferson, Adam's, and Webster's method did. We just happened to get lucky on this nicely chosen example I provided for us. So, which method is best? We know that Hamilton's method never violates the quota rule, but it's been subject to three weird paradoxes in its enactment. On the other hand, we know that all the adjusted divisor methods have the potential to violate the quota rule, but they don't, you can show this mathematically, don't encounter the paradoxes. So which do you want to choose? A couple of mathematicians, Belinsky and Young, did some research on all of these methods, not counting Hamilton's method because they threw out the one with the paradoxes, and they added in one more method that we haven't talked about called Dean's method, and looked at the bias that these different methods have. The way this is read, the further above zero is the cumulative percent bias that you are towards smaller states, and the further below zero you are is the cumulative percent bias you are to larger states. So you can see that Jefferson's method, they redid all the actual census data for each of these 10-year periods starting in 1790, and you can see that Jefferson's method has gotten more and more bias towards larger states as the size of our house of representatives has gotten larger and the size of our population of the country has gotten larger. Adam's method, if we would have used it, you can see is getting more and more bias towards the smaller states. It turns out that Webster's method is actually doing the best job here being least bias towards either smaller large states, and we've been using the Huntington Hill method, here it's just called Hill, and you can see that it's also pretty unbiased, it's slightly biased towards the smaller states, maybe if we estimate it's about 3% if we went over there. So it still has a little bias towards the smaller states, but it's a pretty balanced approach as well. And because of that, that's why up to this point today we tend to keep using the Huntington Hill method. But you may still ask, well, is there a better one out there that we haven't found yet? Is there some method that never encounters paradoxes and yet always satisfies the quota rule? So nobody gets more than their upper quota or less than their lower quota. And Mr. Belinsky and Mr. Young were actually able to answer that question. It's called their impossibility theorem. Michael Belinsky, H. Peyton Young, they are able to prove that there exists no perfect apportionment method that always satisfies the quota rule while encountering no paradoxes. And you may not actually grasp the importance of this statement in mathematics, but it's very difficult to prove something is impossible. And they were actually able to show this on a level that's much above this video, but we'll take their word for it that it's actually impossible to produce a perfect apportionment method. So I'll leave it up to you which method you feel is best. Currently, our country feels the Huntington Hill method is best, but there is continual debate. In fact, different states have brought lawsuits in recent years over the method of apportionment. So this will continue to be in the news for the coming years. Thank you.
