Hello and welcome to CMC Markets and this non-farm payrolls webinar on Friday the 4th of November and this webinar will be hosted by myself Michael Hueson and my colleague in Canada Colin Sizinski before we get started, before we get started with just a few housekeeping rules we've got a risk warning which we have to display at the beginning of every one of these presentations because ultimately what Colin and I are discussing it's not just it's not about trading advice it's really about trying to interpret how the data might move various markets and what effect as well I think the US presidential election is likely to have and whether or not it will overshadow today's payrolls number and I think we can both agree Mr. Sizinski that ultimately it's not really about today's payrolls numbers it's about the US election because I think and please and please correct me if I'm wrong here ultimately unless we get a big miss on payrolls I don't think it's going to move the dial at all. I agree I think what we're looking at here is we're less than a week before the election both parties are going to try and take whatever number comes out and spin it to their advantage whichever way they can the number that came out last month the just above 150 Trump went around for a week saying it was terrible and awful and we need change big time and of course any good number the Democrats are going to go around saying well Obama's economic policies are working we're working and we want four more years of the same so it's really whatever happens is going to be spun more in relation to the election than to the Fed and my feeling is going into this that you to have a real surprise to move the market you'd I said below 50 or above 250 otherwise nobody will really notice and certainly not the the Fed the Fed still on course for a December rate hike and even that's more likely to be influenced by the election and market volatility than any economic data we get between now and then we're really into a much more political phase in the market so what I've said and in my non-firm guesses this morning is I put a 140 it's a little bit below street my feeling is that because you've got such a polarized difference between the two parties and such a potential for a radical shift in direction that a lot of companies have probably in October put off their their decision making a little bit and well we'll just hold off on hiring until after the election so that's my feeling is you'll probably get more likely all else being equal a slightly disappointing result or slightly a little bit down from last month you know I would don't tend to agree with that I mean if we look at the world interest rate probability assessment for December markets are pricing in a 76% probability of a hike next month now obviously we have today's payrolls data we also have the November numbers which would be due out I think on the 2nd of December so we've got two payrolls numbers between now and the December meeting which I think is 14th of December 14th and the 15th or the 13th of the 14th it's round about that sort of time anyway so I think in the context of what's going to move the markets today I think it's going to be a dollar move I think if there's a big miss on non-farms towards the downside and I think that's my bias I think a poor number could actually be dollar negative and could push cable through 125 it's a big big level cable 125 this is the gap it's the flash crash gap between 125 and 126 and ultimately that hasn't really been filled yet and I really want to see that field so in the context of what we're expecting today first and foremost we are finding a little bit of resistance around about this 125 area I think if we go 10 bid or something like that I think we could see a very quick 100 point move up to around about 126, 125, 50 even but more than that I'm thinking we've really we've come a long way this week on the pound and also ultimately we are now looking to start to run into I think a little bit of resistance at these sorts of levels but then you've got to flip that on its head and say well actually the market is so short of sterling that any move I think if if any currency is going to move today on the back of these numbers it's probably going to be sterling so what are we expecting yes I think that's reasonable the other one Michael is to watch for his dollar yen which is the other one that's had a really big move this week dropping from 105 to 103 against the US dollar that's the and that was on defensive flows related to the election election gold took off last week and the end took off this week yes so let's look at that well let's look at the key levels in dollar yen because let's first and foremost look at what we're expecting because I think this is really about the direction of travel and at the direct the direction of travel at the moment for the dollar is down I think we can pretty much say that with a certain degree of confidence and certainly rolled over here and certainly in the context for me I think this is really a case of selling the rally on any dollar strength rather than anything else for me because of the change that we've seen in sentiment over the past few days and it's not likely to change that much between now and Tuesday because ultimately I think presidential election dictates everything here unless we get a very big beat above 200,000 on the payrolls data on the upside or a big miss on the downside say for example 105 110 perhaps maybe even less than a hundred I'm more inclined to think that we're probably going to get a miss because of the weak ISM employment components on the non-manufacturing that we saw out earlier this week and on the manufacturing as well both of those components were weak now there isn't necessarily a correlation between the two and we've talked about correlations between payrolls and ADP for quite some time now this chart is probably not as elegant as your one Colin ignore the green line okay the green line is basically payrolls this time last year you've got the blue line here which is ADP and runs from right to left and you've got the red line which is non-farm payrolls and you can see they're matching each other quite nicely on this particular number and ADP here actually has ratcheted lower on from the previous month even though we did get a very big upward revision to last months to 202 so that would suggest to me that potentially we could get another downward leg in non-farm payrolls given the way that these have matched quite closely in the past six months now I know you were going to talk a little bit more about that Colin did you want to add anything else yeah I just wanted to know overall what what's important to look at here I found also is this channel between for the most part between about 150 and 250 and that's fairly consistent so if you get a result in that range it's going to be fairly in fairly neutral I mean people with people would kind of it wouldn't surprise too many people especially the more recently between say 140 and 200 isn't going to get anybody overly excited however I do want to note something that was that was quite intriguing that happened back in the spring just before the the Brexit vote in in June we got the May payrolls at the beginning of June and at the time the there had been some question of what with the Fed not raising the Fed was supposed to raise interest rates in June but the Brexit vote was coming and there were some some questions as to whether the Fed would try and hold off and blame it on Brexit and and at the time I had wrote in an entertaining article about that if the if the Fed blamed it on blamed a no move on Brexit they'd be throwing away 240 years of US independence and it got some pick up in the media and nice articles with pictures of George Washington and and we all had a good laugh about it in May and then that in the first week of June we got this incredibly disastrous non-farm payrolls number which coincidentally gave the Fed cover to to blame non-farm payrolls instead of Brexit for not raising rates in June and then miraculously the first week in July after the Brexit vote the US put up the most spectacular non-farm payrolls number we had seen in a long time it was absolutely hilarious so if we think there's any political inference at all going on here that the a low number favors Trump and favors the Republicans a high number favors Clinton and the Democrats but but who knows what's going to happen but I still think really all else being equal Michael and I are still on track for the somewhere in between 100 and 150 I think is what we're really looking at but if we get a out of left field number it would suggest there's some political wrangling going on as well so what you're basically saying Colin is that you think that it's going to be a big beat to the top side because Hillary Clinton sort of had a little whisper in the BLS's ear say can you give me a decent payrolls number it doesn't matter if you revise it away subsequently if we get a big beat that's what I'll be thinking I just wonder after what we saw back in the spring it was kind of that when I found shocking because that's like that one just blew me away when that happened so that happens but if we do there's our surprise and that's my out of left field conspiracy guess but my real guess is it's still the 140 yeah I mean the thing is the problem with that is that that low figure wasn't revised away whereas the ADP number for that month may was one six ended up being revised downward yeah it was 168 yeah and then got revised down to 24 so you know I mean you know I suppose it's it's it swings around about us but for the sake of this I mean I'm looking at this Ichimoku cloud chart here and we've now broken below the we've broken back into the cloud after being above it and break and not being able to take out this trend line now I would suggest here if we look at the resistance levels in this particular chart here the cloud resistance on the top side is about 103 30 so I think if we get a good number on non-farms slightly dollar positives and I think the upside is probably going to be limited to about 103 30 103 40 which suggests that reasonable which would then suggest that any pullback after that if it fails to get back through there then we're going to come back down here and touch the bottom of that cloud which is around 101 95 102 so now that we're back in the cloud and we've closed back in the cloud the way this has worked over the course of the past it worked fairly well as support or resistance I would suggest a slightly positive dollar number will push the dollar higher so we're talking anything in the region of 180 190 maybe 200 we'll get a bit of dollar buying I think that will be an opportunity to sell dollar strength the sell dollar rebound for a move back lower in the short to medium term and I think this is a similar sort of story for euro dollar as well if we look at euro dollar here we're running into a significant amount of resistance around about 111 30 111 40 so again you know strong dollar number here could potentially and knock euro dollar back down on on the subject of the S&P let's have a quick look at that before because we've got a two minute two and a half minute countdown we are right on the 200 day moving average right now so that would suggest to me that there's certainly a significant potential a little bit of buying interest between 2080 and 2085 so again I think we could see a little bit of a pullback to potentially 2100 that's really born out and that's also a beautiful go on rounded top and descending triangle that it's broken the Dow's the same thing there's the Dow I mean the Dow's on a very solid support there and also it's also not too far away from the moving average so again I think there's potential for a little bit of a stock market rebound whatever these numbers are they may try and push through the lows I would be surprised let's not say it won't happen but I would be surprised if we push significantly lower than we already have done this week on the back of these numbers looking again at the FTSE 100 very quickly again we're right on trend line support from those August lows where I've linked them through there we've gone slightly through it but again around about these 6,670 area does appear to be some element of support and then you've got this September lows through there so you know my bias at the moment is that the market does appear to be a little bit overextended on the downside and we can sort of see it born out an awful lot on an awful lot of these these these charts here as well around about 10,200 on the DAX now as for gold where are we on gold well we're above 1,300 one quick thing go on I was also just going to quickly note the we're starting to see some oversold readings show up on particularly on the FTSE so it is that you're ready we are kind of getting to a bit of a downside extreme we might get a bit of a trading bounce even if the primary trends continue yeah sorry go ahead and gold gold I was going to say that it does look a little bit toppy at these sorts of levels so again that really does support the idea of potentially a little bit of a little bit of a top a little bit of a sell-off maybe back to around 1290 I wouldn't be wouldn't be surprised to go back to 1280 but around about 1310 there is a significant amount of resistance so to sum this up as we head in this this is what we're expecting the forecasts here 175 non-farms 4.9 on the unemployment and average earnings if we have a decent average earnings number in excess of 2.6 percent again that will be dollar positive so keep an eye on that and we're ready to go right now okay there we go on 40 161 161 right down the middle 191 yeah a little bit below street upward revision yeah upward revision 4.9 on the unemployment rate which is as expected 2.8 on average earnings 2.8 on the hourly earnings that's huge so that's dollar policy inflation pressures are growing yeah so that's going to push that's going to push the dollar up and that's exactly what we're seeing dolly ends going up around 1310 cable back around 124 80 euro dollar but below 11 but it's it's fairly subdued but I think we'll see the dollar push higher a little bit as we as we head into the rest of the day on the back of these numbers slightly a dollar positive bias to them Canadian payrolls report you want to fill that in Colin huge huge 43.9 thousand increase the street was expecting a 15,000 decrease the full-time employment was a decline of 23,000 there was a reversal of last month we got but it's so it's a huge increase in part-time employment to the tune of 67,000 so normally we would like to see obviously the that that be reversed in the big increase in full-time over part-time but but beggars can't be choosers at this point in time Canada's been struggling and and so overall this is a pretty decent print for for Canada I mean to be quite honest they're pretty sure the loony yes they're pretty I mean that's the that's a five-minute chart of dollar CAD at the moment it's spiked lower but it's pretty much back where it was there's been virtually no reaction to it whatsoever in terms of where it was in the lead up to the numbers which surprises me a little bit you'd think that we'd we'd have a lot of get a bit of an improvement yeah you would I mean we did have the street usually discounts part-time a little bit they do focus a little bit more on the full-time full-time job creation but every little bit helps at least it's not going down I see now as we're less looking on the minute chart here it's gone down it's gone back up and it's kind of flat to slightly lower but the other thing you've got with dollar CAD is you've got that you always look at the Canadian data but then you've got what's happening with the oil price and what's happening with the US dollars so there's always a number of factors driving dollar CAD at any given time yeah but going back to the non-farm payrolls we got an outward revision to September from 156 to 191 and 161 instead of the 173 so it's all like a good news bad news it's basically a decent number it's not going to derail a Fed rate rise and more importantly the jump in average earnings to 2.8% from 2.7% revision to September from 2.6 supports the idea that we are going to get a US rate rise in December Mr. Trump notwithstanding and Mr. Trump remains the wild card here and will continue to be so and ultimately there is only one thing in my view that will derail a Fed rate rise and it's not economic data it's Mr. Trump being elected president of the United States because ultimately no one will really know much before his inauguration in January what sort of president he will be and that is the big unknown but to add to that Michael even if we do I think you what we'd be looking at is that you probably see market volatility on a Trump win because people as Michael mentioned people aren't going to know what he's going to do however the one thing that would be clear is that a rate hike would be delayed not not put off indefinitely because Mr. Trump has been going around for the last several months basically putting pressure on the Fed to raise rates and saying that they've been keeping interest rates artificially low to help the Democrats so odds are if you didn't see one in December you could still see one go in probably in March would be my guess if if you did get a delay because I think he'd be he'd be in there trying to talk the Fed into starting to get raise interest rates anyways but it's there'd be a lot of volatility at first just because people don't know what he's going to do well assuming of course possibly including himself assuming that Janet Yellen survives that's another thing and Lail Brainerd for that matter yeah well either way on Lail Brainerd because if she gets if Clinton gets elected Brainerd's been is on the it seems to be on the the media shortlist for Treasury Secretary yeah absolutely but only if Clinton gets an obviously only if Clinton gets in yeah if Trump gets in then her her influence diminishes dramatically well I think it but I think a diminish I think her influence diminishes completely exactly I don't think I don't think she'd be acceptable because there is a certain amount of political influence on on any fit new Fed members because ultimately they have to be ratified by the president do they not yes and ratified by Congress so that the they get nominated and then they have to go through an approval process for Congress just like members of cabinet do yeah okay so and assuming that Hillary Clinton becomes elected or gets elected then you still have uncertainty because of the FBI investigation into her her her emails that showed up on the Anthony Weiner's computer exactly so you know the problem you've then got the uncertainty that you could have a situation whereby you've got a president in waiting who's under investigation by the FBI and ultimately it's unlikely that that particular probe will be resolved anytime soon so you'll still have a huge amount of uncertainty now whether that will affect the economic outlook I don't think that it will certainly not if Clinton wins because I think in terms of Fed policy the status quo will be maintained but ultimately it won't be good go on yeah no it won't be good politically and it could impact the mood of the country although her room her vice presidential candidate Tim Kaine was also fairly well respected so it's not a it's not a complete wash out if she gets into trouble and I mean there were other people there's been a lot of other people hanging around in the background so and I think that's probably more important than anything else I think really the important thing to factor in with respect to the election is the makeup of the two houses the Senate and Congress if the status quo is maintained there then ultimately there's not an awful lot of damage mr. Trump can do because ultimately he can be reined in by the Republicans in the house where they have a majority but the damage to potential foreign policy could be quite significant and I think that's where the risks are I think it's in terms of not so much domestic policy it's more foreign policy just been asked about paralysis if Clinton gets in I don't think so because America is bigger than one person ultimately if Clinton finally finds she has to step down then I think Tim Kaine will probably have to step in and personally while I don't know an awful lot about him that may actually be a good thing Colin may have he was a governor of Virginia I believe it was her senator but he and I think at one point he was governor so he's somebody who does have a lot of political experiences very well known around around Washington as I so what I gather from what I can tell from past reading he's really he's pretty well respected all around so so it wouldn't be a huge issue now with the one thing you probably will run into is because Trump has ended up doing a lot better than than everybody thought even if Clinton wins the presidency you're looking at a gridlock Congress because they the Democrats might manage just one party or the other is going to just squeak out control of the Senate but it does look like the Republicans are going to pretty solidly control take control of the sorry maintain control of the House the the Democrats stop talking about trying to retake the House months ago they kind of gave up on that it just it's not going their way they were hoping for the Senate but you don't have this 20-point Clinton blowout that that would be enough to carry down the ticket and so so that's what you're probably looking at here as well so they go I mean regardless of whether she wins or not and regardless of the investigations or not if she wins you're going to have gridlock between the Democrats and the Republicans which is pretty much the same as you've had for the last two years with Obama so no change there yeah right so let's move on let's have a look at crude oil in the wake of that headline from that for over the wires from Saudi Arabia that in the event that they can't reach an agreement with Iran about a production freeze or what have you then they will turn the taps back on again ultimately I think it's unlikely that Iran will agree to be kept at four million barrels a day or less than four million barrels a day in back in March this year they said that their goal was to get production capacity back to the levels that they they they had prior to economic sanctions being implemented that was four million barrels per day and in excess of that so I can't see Iran rowing back from that which ultimately means that we could well see peak peak peak oil supply for quite some time longer than originally has been priced in and certainly being borne out by what's happening in this chart here on Brent we've broken the uptrend line from the lows that we saw in January this year God that seems a long time ago now but here we are we're almost it we're almost we're almost in at Christmas not too far away that's only about six or seven weeks away so we're looking at a very very key support on Brent around about the levels that we are now around about $44.80 if we look at a similar chart on WTI we have a similar sort of scenario playing out here with respect to that the 200-day moving average it's going to be fairly important in the context of the overall move and while we did actually briefly dip below it in July August this year we weren't able to sustain a move below it what I would want to see from both of these contracts is a confirmed move of both contracts lower to confirm a move back to towards $40 a barrel on WTI because ultimately I think that's potentially where we're going and I think dollar CAD is probably being driven more by the negative news from the Saudis and the employment report which my colleague Jasper has just tweeted and subsequently deleted nice one mate I'll retweet that one now when you when you send when you send it again you can I mention on yeah sure oh I was just going to add to add to that if you look on the WTI chart and end on the rent chart for that matter on the stochastics it's starting to get about as oversold as we were back in July so these to these 200-day tests are particularly significant you could see them hold here the other thing to note is we're in kind of a 40 to 50 channel for WTI it doesn't go much I mean except for the big bum we had back down in the winter but it hasn't really gone down below 40 and stayed below 40 since we retook it back in the spring and the reason for that is because between below once you get below 40 not very many people are making money anymore and the problem was once you get above 50 then that starts to bring the US shale production that's been shut in back on stream because that then becomes economics so you're sitting you're sitting also in around in and around 45 right in the middle of this range but this 40 to 50 range seems to be the sweet spot for for WTI and that's why we've seen it trending sideways since June all right we've got a Fed policymaker commenting on the wires at the moment Fed's Lockhart says Fed close to achieving its policy goals Fed's Lockhart says economy approaching full employment Lockhart inflation low and stable just a bit below Fed goal economy doesn't call for pre-programmed tightening so basically he's saying East the Fed's still on course for a December rate rise on the basis of that employment report I'm being asked on my views for the Japan 225 so going to go and talk about that essentially that's a proxy on what the dolly yen is doing at the moment and certainly in on the basis of this weekly chart I think there's potential for downside on dolly yen let's look at this we've got a potential bearish candle going on here on the weekly chart the likelihood is that we're probably going to see further declines on the Nikkei towards these series of lows in October let's quickly just draw a little bit do a little bit of analysis on this let's draw a trend line through there we're right on this trend line support from the June lows certainly on the basis of the daily on the weekly chart we're on the we're on the cusp of a potential bearish reversal so I certainly think in the context of what the dolly yen could potentially do this Nikkei reversal is potentially quite bearish and actually a strong yen is the last thing that the Nikkei needs and if this is a port if this is a an indicator of what the dolly yen could do then potentially we could head back towards 101 on dolly yen over the course of the next few days if this bearish reversal is confirmed I mean it's not by no means it's by no means you know a nailed on indicator but certainly on the basis of this particular chart here on the weekly chart there does appear to be a real difficulty in actually breaking out of this range breaking out of the highs that we've seen over the course of the past few few months and actually heading towards a test of support and maybe these mid-October lows that we saw a few weeks ago so ultimately I think the Nikkei 225 we've declined four days in a row we could see a bit of a pull back towards 17,100 and these sort of peaks here but ultimately momentum does appear to have shifted on the Nikkei and we could actually head back towards 16,700 16,600 yes and that's tracking the rally in the in the end as the end recovers we're seeing the the Japanese roll over and certainly we've been seeing the footsie roll over with the pound bouncing back and and I think that's something we want to consider as we head into the election result is that you may what we had with Brexit and when we had the Brexit surprise was that we had this big very short-term drop in the footsie but we also at the same time had the collapse in the pound and and then so the footsie went down for a very short period of time and then it started to go back up and when we go to the head to the election next week we also want to keep that variation between and and mirror action between the currency and the stock market in mind because it's the same sort of thing in the U.S. you'll probably see if Trump wins the dollar get hit pretty hard and that could end probably an initial decline in the in the U.S. indices and certainly we've seen them under distribution but if you get a big enough drop in the dollar then the indices may actually start to go up so you may have a two-stage reaction in the in the stock market it should should Mr. Trump win should Clinton win you're probably looking at the dollar stay up and stock markets and stock markets go back up because they've been coming down lately indeed and one thing I would say about the Brexit vote is we saw the pound actually going up in the lead up to the vote that's not been happening that's not been happening with respect to the dollar the dollar has been sinking ahead of the vote so there is a slightly different narrative going on here with respect to the dollar than there was relative to the pound and what's interesting is this is shifted in the last week or so because I up until about 10 days ago the dollar was going up and gold was going down and we had that reversal last week and I think what's happening this time is that because traders got caught so offside by Brexit and they were they were so wrong and so far out on the limb that I think this time you're seeing people take a bit more of a conservative approach and and that we have actually as Trump has gained momentum in the polls in the last week and a half we've seen the markets actually starting to reflect that a little bit not everybody's willing to to get caught surprised that again I said that fool me one shame on on you fool me twice shame on me and so I think a lot of people are our take have taken that and that's why we're seeing some of the action we're seeing in the US markets there is just a little bit of of pricing in going on for the the growing potential of either a very close race a contested election or or a Trump win and just to note to people when we had the contested election in 2000 the market went down 5% in November so keep an eye on that as well that was it it was in a bear market but the contested election was a people took to that as as blaming for the bear market that ensued okay so I think our half hour is up does anyone have any other questions that they'd like to direct at myself and Colin well I'll give you give you a few seconds to type a we have this one here for the next OPEC meeting yes I've just I've just November 30 sorry I just replied to that I've just replied to that did you see that 30 30 November's next OPEC meeting in Vienna do you have any more there Colin no that's all I can see on here okay all right well thank you very much ladies and gentlemen we'll be doing another one of these on the December the November payrolls numbers on the 2nd of December don't forget we do a regular Monday afternoon webinar at 12 15 which my colleague Jesper Lawler hosts and that's always very very informative and go to the education section to sign up for that otherwise Colin and myself would like to thank you for turning up today and hope you all have a wonderful weekend thank you all very much


I'm your host E, and today we're shooting for the stars. This video is going to be different from my new content because I just want to sit here and have a discussion with you guys. I'll be down there in the comments when this video goes live, and hopefully we get some cool stuff going down there in the comments section. I miss doing these kinds of videos where I ask for your guys's input. I stopped doing them for my own personal reasons, but I want to do maybe one of these a month if it goes well, maybe once a week. Who knows? Right now the posting schedule is Monday and Tuesday are for non-Steven King things, and Wednesday through Sunday are for Stephen King content. Now, me and my wife, Shell, were watching a program the other night, and they were discussing how long it would take to get to Mars. It said two years and some months, but I recently looked it up, and at least this is a trip to Mars NASA Mars Explorer, how long it would take. The spacecraft departs Earth at speed of 24,600 miles per hour, about 39,600 kilometers per hour. The trip to Mars would take about seven months and around 300 million miles, 480 kilometers. So, whether or not a manned spaceship would be the same time, I don't know, but I'm going off of that seven months for what I had planned for this video. Now, I don't suggest you say this to your spouse, but because my wife is a very understanding, loving, caring individual, she understood where I was coming from when I said this, which was, if you and the kids hadn't come along, I 100% would take a one-way trip to Mars. I'm sure some of you relate to that, or have related to that in the past, where you just want to be done with this world. I don't want to get depressing, but my life before my wife and kids was pretty terrible. And the point of that was, is I would have no problem leaving this world and traveling to another one, even if I knew that that would be the place that I died. So we, because we are the couple that we are, we started talking about what we would do during the trip, what we would take with us, so on and so forth. And both of us being readers, we started talking about books. And I thought that would be a great, not series, but a great video to discuss with you guys. So definitely, I want your own lists, but these are the books in no particular order. These are the novels that I probably will not get to in my lifetime unless forced to. And it's not because I don't want to read them, but because either they're too heavy, the content's too heavy, and I'm rarely in the mood for the kind of content that the book has, or the writing is too dense, or it's an author that I enjoy, but it's a daunting challenge to get into their work. We'll discuss more along those lines when we get to certain authors. But I certainly want to hear from you down there in the comments about what you would bring with you. And it doesn't have to be just books. It can be any number of things, video games, anything that you can bring. The only, the only restriction I have here is you have to bring physical material. You can't bring digital because you won't be able to download it, or maybe you could download it beforehand. So if you wanted to preload your Kindle or preload your PlayStation, Xbox, whatever, I guess that would work. But you get where I'm coming from, I'm sure, because you guys are smart. We're gonna go ahead and jump into it. I know I've been rambling already. That's why I like the new way I've been shooting videos, because I can cut all this rambling out. But we're gonna go ahead and jump into it. And the first book on my list is Ulysses by James Joyce. This is a book that is extremely daunting to me for whatever reason. I may love it when or if I eventually get to it, but it's one of those books that I have heard nothing but negative things about from current readers. Of course, it's a classic. It's lauded as the first modern novel or the first postmodern fiction. I don't know exactly what it's classified as, but most people consider the first modern novel I believe. Let me know if I'm wrong down there in the comments, because I don't mind being wrong. But yeah, Ulysses would definitely be the first one. And I'm not gonna go through and read all the descriptions of these books. I'm just gonna tell you why I would take them and why they seem interesting to me. So yeah, if I ever get to this one, it'll be sometime far in the future. And if I do read it, I will probably read it to my wife's shell. We did that with Infinite Jest. Also, here's another rule that I made up that you can't bring anything with you that you have already read or consumed as far as video games or anything like that. It has to be all stuff that you have no experience with. So sadly, it by Stephen King and The Goldfinch, by Donna Tartt, two of my favorite books of all time, number one and number two, respectively, they're not coming, unfortunately. But I would definitely try to smuggle it past my own rules here. The next one is one that I have put off reading forever. I have never seen the original, not the original, the adaptation all the way through. We watched the first episode or whatever of the miniseries when I was in school. And it's a very heavy read for obvious reasons. And that's Roots by Alex Haley. I hope to get to this at some point in time in my life. It took me forever to find a decent copy. And this one isn't really decent, but it is falling apart. But it's a, I believe it's a close to first edition. If it's not, no, it's a book club edition, but it's from 1976. So another reason why I don't want to read it is because I don't want to risk it falling apart. But if I'm on a trip to Mars, then yeah, definitely. I'm gonna try this one out. If you don't know, the story is about the slavery in the South and a character named Kutakinte. There's the famous scene where the slave master's whipping him, asking him what's his name. He wants him to say Toby, but he continues to say Kutakinte. And if I'm pronouncing that wrong, my apologies, I only have the the movie reference to go off of. Next up, I gotta bring something horror with me. I've never read anything by this author, but people are kind of polarized on whether or not this is good or not. And that keeps me from from reading it. It's kept me from reading it this entire time, even though I bought it when it first came out. And that's imaginary friend by Stephen Chibosky, I think is how you pronounce it. I believe it's a coming of age story in the vein of Stephen King, Dan Simmons, that kind of thing. It is an epic tome. Also, all of these books, I believe, are at least over 500 pages because if I had that much time on my hands and we're shooting through space with nothing to look at, well, except for planets and so on and so forth. But for long periods of time, it's going to be the same stuff over and over again. And I want to get deep into a book. So this one is 705 pages. I'm not going to go back and check out how long the other ones are. Let me move my stack and do it like this so it doesn't fall over. It's a big stack. I think I picked 10 books. 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10. 10. Nice even number. Next up is a Japanese fantasy story that I absolutely fell in love with the cover. I have no idea what it's about. But I fell in love with the cover when I saw it at Books a Million and I had to have it for no other reason to put it on my bookshelf. And that is Brave Story by Miyuki Miyabe. I believe that's how you pronounce it. This one, like I said, I have no idea what it's about. A young wataru flees his messed up life to navigate the magical world of vision. A land filled with creatures, both fierce and friendly. That's all I'm going to read of that one. But yes, the artwork is incredible. I love this art style. And it's a wrap around cover. It is a paperback, but it's a wrap around cover. It's just absolutely gorgeous. So that's Brave Story. The next one is a book that I love the idea behind. And I did crack it open and I did try to read it with my friend Danger Slater. I tried to read it with him, but I ended up noping out about 40 pages into it because it was so dense and so heavy. But the concept is a lot of fun. And that is Bubble Gum by Adam Levin. It is a story about a world where the internet was never invented. So it's in the modern day, but there's no internet. And there's, I don't know if there's some kind of creature. This is another cover by because it's absolutely gorgeous.  So there's definitely a cover by. But again, this book is, it's gargantuan.  I know the guy's name is not Babish, but he kind of looks like him. Let's see here. All right. So this one is almost 800 pages, 760 something. All right. So next up, we have a book that was on several lists when I was looking up the best books over 500 pages. And I came across this, it was also recommended to me by my friend Josh. I have never read anything by this author before. I don't even know if this author has other books, but it is City on Fire by Garth Risk Halberg. It's very cool. I think the cover is exceptional with the fireworks and the mirror finish and everything. But what really piqued my interest is there's whole sections of the book that look like this. So cool. This says music reviews, but there's several sections that are interviews and sections that are written like manuscripts with great backgrounds. I don't know that I'll ever get to this one. The description is all over the place as far as how many characters you're following and whatnot. And while I love a big cast, it has to be done well, not saying that Halberg didn't do well. It's not one of those books that stares me in the face constantly and calls me to read it, but it would definitely come with me on a trip to Mars. I actually own two copies of the book, which is odd enough as it is. Hang on. I don't know where I put it. There it is. Right there is another one, sitting on fire. And the reason for that, get back up there, Sally Bear. No. Get up there and sit down.  Stay there.  Anyways, the reason for this is I bought this one for I think eight dollars on eight books because my friend Josh recommended it. And he rarely ever steers me wrong. But yeah, he recommended it. And then I found one at a thrift store for 50 cents because that's how my life goes. One is in the one that's up here is in much better condition. So that's why I picked, I think this one is the one that I found at the thrift store, the cheap version, the one from eight books, this one over here is in pretty bad condition. Next up, we have a book that I have tried multiple times to read. And it is one of those books that I will eventually hopefully force myself to read before the end, before the end of my life. And I definitely take it to Mars with me. And that is House of Leaves by Mark Z Danieluski. The farthest I've gotten in this is about 200 pages in. I try to do a buddy read here on the channel. I tried to read it with my wife. And we just kept on getting stuck. A lot of the problems I had where the foot, the footnotes completely took me out of the experience. So if I do read it, like on a trip to Mars, it's not going to ever happen. But you get what I'm saying. Anyways, if I do read it, I'll probably read the whole thing and then go back and read the footnotes afterward, maybe hop back and forth for context, just to find out where they were, you know, where I was in the story. But yeah, this one, this one really, it didn't bore me as much as I had no idea what was going on. And some people are saying that's normal. The book is supposed to give you a feeling of confusion and disorientation, supposed to disorient you. But I wasn't in the mood for that. And maybe one of these days, I will give it a try. But yeah, that's House of Leaves. I hear this a lot about this book. It's polarizing. People either love it, or they hate it. Very few people, no one actually that I've talked to has read the book and just went, it was okay. Or it was meh. So if you're one of those meh people, I would love to hear from you. Next up is an author that I really enjoy reading, but I don't understand a lick of. I have read most of, what is it, not zero gravity. I can't remember what it's called, so we're going to move on. But I did read and finish the Crying of Lot 49. And that's Thomas Pensions Against the Day. And the reason why this one is here is because it is his longest work at 1,215 pages, which is absolutely ridiculous. The only 1,200 page book I have ever read was Alan Moore's Jerusalem. And I did not enjoy most of that book. There was a good three to 400 page book right in the middle, but we're not talking about that. So Thomas Pension, I love the way he writes, very readable, smooth prose, very interesting situations, but I don't understand a thing that's going on. I don't understand his themes. I don't understand any of that stuff. And I have that problem with most of postmodern literature. And I've looked up several videos for like trying to understand the Crying of Lot 49. But it seems like everyone has a different view of what his books are about. And there's no definitive answer out there, because Thomas Pension doesn't give interviews. He rarely comes out into the public eye at all. And when he does do interviews or introductions to books, they're usually very short and just as vague and obtuse as his literature. So he's not one to explain his books. And I like to understand at least half of what I'm reading. I'm perfectly fine with open themes that you come to your own conclusion on. But with these that feels like I'm on the cusp of the point, like I'm on the brink of figuring it out. And then everything flutters away in the next couple of pages. Next up, we have a book. Once again, my buddy Josh, he recommended this author. He even sent me one or two of his books in a huge box. He sends it to me in, you know, those lawyer boxes, or the boxes that printer paper comes in. He just sends me those. He like tapes them all up and then ships them UPS. But 2666 by Robert, is it Roberto Balano, who is no longer with us. But this was originally published as a series or multiple books. I believe I could be wrong about that. I have no idea what this is about. Nothing whatsoever. I've read the descriptions of other books of his and they seem to be more literary, maybe even postmodern fiction. So again, for the same reason with Thomas Pension, I have stayed away from his work. I have multiple of his books because you find a lot of them at thrift stores, especially here in Alabama. Because people around here, I'm not trying to stereotype, but they seem not to like deep literature.  And also just huge sections with nothing but Bibles.  Most of my collection of over 1600 physical novels have come from local thrift stores or Goodwill's, you know, secondhand shops, all that stuff. But yeah, this one, this one interests me mainly because of the cover. It is very cool. I like the artistic styling. I like the fact that it looks like a Renaissance painting or maybe a religious painting, something like that. I'm not big into art, so, you know, I have no idea what I'm talking about. The next one, again, came from my buddy, Josh. This one, the title and the synopsis, the description, all that stuff absolutely caught my eye, but I tried to read it and it is all over the place. Like City on Fire, it has multiple, you know, like interviews, multiple formats, a lot of art, a lot of experimental content, and that is, I'm going to have to read it before I show it to you, America and the Cult of the Cactus Boots, a Diagnostic by Philip Friedenberg, visuals by Jeff Walton. And this is what it looks like. And it's just, it's absolutely crazy. America and the Cult of the Cactus Boots, you're hearing that right, cactus boots, a diagnostic explores philosophy, neuroscience, totalitarianism, alchemy, technology, psychology, cosmology, psychedelia, politics, physics, mystery, adventure, absurdism, there's a lot of that in this book, just me flipping through it, poetry and literature with an obscure hero's quest. So that's everything I would take on a seven month long trip to Mars. What I would read when I get there, it's going to take me, it usually takes me a month to read a book of 600 plus pages. So I say at least three months of those on the trip, I'd probably take even longer because I'd want to, you know, enjoy the ride also. But after so long, I can only imagine space is going to get boring. I would say probably four or five of these would be read on the way there. And then I'd read the rest of them when I get there. But again, I would love, love, absolutely love to hear what you guys would bring along with you. If it would only be books, if it would be video games, if it would be movies or whatever, try to keep it out of the digital space. But I would love to hear that. So take some time, you don't have to, you know, comment right away. Take some time and draw it up. And if you're on the discord, let's talk even more in depth over there because YouTube doesn't tell me when I, if you comment and I reply, it does not tell me when you reply again. I literally have to go hunt that down. So if you want to have discussion, you can click the link down there in the doobly-doo and click that to go out of the discord. And we can have long discussions over there. We like to have fun. There's no issues if there are issues that are brought up and someone does not follow the rules, then they are removed from it.  But until next time, I have been E, you have been U. This has been what I would read on a trip to Mars. I'll talk to you guys later. Bye bye. I figured since this is an old school type of video, I would do the old school stuff. So anyways, I hope you enjoyed it. I'll talk to you guys later. Bye.


Well even the rain can't stop the Brainerd softball team from taking the diamonds today. It's a two-horse race for the Central Lakes crown. Rikori still one game ahead of the Warriors, but they are set to play tomorrow in a suspended makeup game with huge implications. First things first though, Brainerd hosting third place St. Cloud Tech. Warriors in pink, Connor, cancer survivors and fighters. Warriors in trouble in the first. Brandon Lomel goes long for the Tigers. They take the two-zip lead. Well, Brainerd with Storm back. Warriors take the lead on this Alayna Christensen walk. With the bags full, Runner comes in from third. Warriors up 3-2 next inning. Cassidy's on telly will ground out, but Claire Cenoa will touch home, and the Warriors now lead 4-2. A couple batters later, Vanessa Britton will line this out to straight away center field. Runner tags up and scores, and that would add to the lead. They would go to hold on to win 5-2. They're now 17-1 on the season. If you've enjoyed this segment of Lakeland News, please consider making a tax-deductible contribution to Lakeland Public Television.

Man wouldn't let officers sit in coach, then she slips him a note. Jessica looked at everyone around her, cramped all in one small space with no leg room to move. She sighed, it was going to be a long flight, but as soon as she found her seat, she tensed up a little more. That day she knew she would be uncomfortable, but did not expect how uncomfortable. As she started to make her way into the seat, a man came straight towards her, and would not let her sit down. She had no idea why, but as soon as he opened his mouth, she knew, and she had to do something in return. Jessica had been a military trainee for some time. All her training had prepared her for all kinds of situations, but still, when this man came striding towards her, all her training suddenly vanished from her brain. She was shaking. What was in store for her on that day, on that plane? She was on her way home for the holidays, she craved seeing her family. It had been way too long since she had seen them, and being far away had made her heart break a little each day. Still, she knew what she was doing was for her country, and that was far more important to her. She grabbed her passport and headed towards the boarding gate, but as soon as she looked for her seat, she knew something that day was just not right. Flights can be overwhelming, and some would say even scary. You are confined in a small space with little to no room to get comfortable, but still, it is the best way to travel from point A to point B in a short amount of time. And that is precisely what Jessica wanted. The day she boarded her flight, it was totally overbooked, so she knew there would be no free seats for her to spread her legs or have more room. Little did she know, someone would grant her wish. As a military officer, Jessica fights all the odds just to ensure that the country is safe, and we should all appreciate their efforts a little more. But on that day, one man, in particular, knew exactly what to do. Even though we would all love to travel more comfortably, some just can't. Business class and first class plane tickets are much more expensive than the economy seats are, so most of us are ensured a pretty uncomfortable flight. Jessica did not know that day she was not going to be as uncomfortable as she initially thought. Dressed in uniform and her bag over her shoulders, she made her way to the back of the plane. Her boarding pass stated she was in 31B, so she had a way to go before she could be seated. As she entered the plane, she looked at the business class seats, they seemed so spacious and comfortable, but she could never afford them. While Jessica was looking for her seat, someone was quietly talking to the air hostess about her, but she had no idea. She kept tugging her belongings around until finally, the row of 31 seats approached. She grabbed her shoulder bag, stashed it in the overhead compartment, and sat down. But 10 minutes turned into 15, and then 20. It looked like this plane's takeoff was running late. Jessica couldn't shake the feeling that something wasn't right on this flight. Usually, planes are delayed due to bad weather conditions, but today the skies were clear. She tried to find a flight attendant to ask about the delay, but there were none in sight. Then, she heard nervous whispering. What was going on? Then, Jessica spotted the cabin crew, and they were acting strangely. There was a secretive flurry of activity as they all rushed to huddle in a corner of the plane. What was going on? Soon, she would realize that they were talking about one of the passengers. And that someone was suddenly moving towards her. The flight attendants were giggling slightly, covering their faces with their hands. Something was happening, and she didn't like it one bit. They were obviously talking about her. She was used to stares and whispers when she traveled in her uniform, but something was different about this situation. In the end, Jessica just decided to ignore it. But she couldn't help but feel on edge. Jessica was tired and muscles were knotted with tension, but her intensive training in the army had become muscle memory that she could access instantly if she needed to. She didn't want trouble today. Although she was off duty, she never knew when there would be a threat that she would have to neutralize. And that's when she noticed him. The stranger was tall, and Jessica couldn't help but notice that he was rather handsome. He had fine features and sparkling blue eyes. He was neatly dressed in a suit and tie. She half wondered if he was going to ask for her number, he was striding toward her with such confidence and purpose, she had seen it a hundred times. But all her training and life experience could never have prepared her for what he really wanted. He moved purposefully towards Jessica, and her mind was racing. It seemed like an age before he reached her. Then the strange man did something that confirmed Jessica's suspicions. He opened his mouth to speak, and Jessica saw his intentions on his face. But then he said something totally unexpected. The man took a step closer and gestured at her seat. Then, without skipping a beat he informed her that that seat was taken. Jessica looked around her, eyes wide, incredulous.  She thought. I'm in your seat, he insisted. She had no idea what he was talking about. What does your ticket say, he asked, exasperated. What? No, I'm 31B, Jessica said. She wasn't about to be fooled, her ticket clearly stated 31B. She stood up and checked, and she knew she was right. She wasn't backing down. Who did this man think he was? And what game was he playing? She looked to the flight attendants for assistance, but they just nodded their heads. But then the stranger explained, as she was a military officer, she couldn't have the seat. He told her that he admired that she was working hard every day to keep the people of America safe, but he needed her to sit somewhere else. Jessica patiently listened to his reasoning, but then she was completely blindsided. The strange man said he would be obliged if she accepted his business class ticket as a thank you gesture for the hard work she does every day. Jessica was shocked and tried to refuse the kind man's gesture, but he kept insisting. He gave her his seat, and she went up the way she came through the plane's little hallway. She could not believe what had just happened, but as she saw the more spacious and comfortable seats, her body craved them. How could she ever repay him? As a military officer in training, she had been working for days on end. Her body was sore, and her muscles ached. Jessica thought that all of her hard work would pay off once she arrived home, and could finally rest, but then, the mystery man had given her the best gift she could ask for. Jessica could not stop thinking about the man who gave up his seat. The kind man was broader and larger than she was, and if she was going to be uncomfortable in the little economy seats, she could not imagine how he would feel cramped up in there. She felt terrible, so she thought of something that might brighten his day. She had no idea what she could do to make his flight more comfortable, she decided she would ask a flight attendant. Sadly, there was not much she could do. She could not send things from first class to economy. She had to think of something else, and she did. That wonderful mystery man was probably very uncomfortable in his seat, but Jessica could not do anything about that as she knew that if she gave back his first class seat, he would completely refuse. She grabbed a piece of paper and scribbled something on it with a $20 bill attached, and asked the stewardess to deliver it from her. The man opened up the note, and his eyes widened. The note read, If everyone treated people the way you treated the service woman, the world would be a better place. She also asks the man to have some drinks and snacks on her. But of course, the man refused. The mystery man did however, send another note back to Jessica. And when she read it, she couldn't help but smile. He had declined her offer, but proposed that they meet when their flight lands and have dinner on him. Was this a date? Jessica's stomach fluttered as she wrote another note back. Of course, she accepted. The man's heartwarming gesture had endeared him to her completely. The pair met at a restaurant shortly after their plane landed, and Jessica forgot her weariness in all her excitement. She never expected anything to happen to her that was seemed right out of a fairytale, and on a plane, of all places. Jessica had never thought that on her assumed to be bad day, she would get so much to cherish. But she did, and all thanks to this kind man. The man was overwhelmed about receiving the note and thanked her, but still refused the money. Another person on the flight witnessed everything, and had to share the story which soon went viral. Another woman named Jessica Titus witnessed the whole thing, she had to share this incredible story about compassion and empathy. And she did. As soon as she posted the story, within the hour, more than 4,000 people had shared it. Tons of people came together and shared their similar stories. One woman named Kate Nixon said that someone did the same thing for her husband who too was in the army. While they were heading back from California, they were overwhelmed with such a gesture. What amazing people. People really do have heart, but we do not see it all that often. By sharing the story on social media, the anonymous man got appreciated and praised for a deed he did not want to be acknowledged for, he just did it from the goodness of his heart. We all need more people like that out there.

Very nice you got a base Or you got the sketch of his and Second one of the break. I believe Jose Berrios Dual patch and auto to 50 from the Minnesota Twins Steve Locke for box for guys. Yeah, very nice break. I Think a lot of the teams that you wouldn't consider powerhouses are good young teams Like you start to add up all the tools because like, you know Cincinnati Reds White Sox Twins I don't think anybody does Ray. I mean over a hundred and sixty two games You kind of have an idea, you know things will go back to normal and they you know like It's enough of a sample size that like outliers will kind of go away You know teams streaks and stuff like that won't really play in all that much but In a shortened season like this You never know Ray they haven't said anything yet. I Mean not only Marlins, but Phillies too. I mean, let's say that they lost six games 10% of the entire season. So that'd be like the equivalent of losing 16 17 games in a regular season But they were they were talking about doing the seven ending doubleheader thing for the regular season Not just for like this, but I'm obviously This being a extenuating circumstance. Yeah, right. I think that's a very good Point as well How many people's bodies like that have played for so many years are just used to being shut down at this point You know what I mean in recovery mode and season over and stuff Masahiro Tanaka parallel for the Yankees and Jonah Wilson each hero Ricky Henderson Keston Gira and Roberto Clemente canvas for the Pittsburgh Pirates and David Harrell reproduction canvas on that one Cody Bellinger parallel for the Dodgers and Harvey Velazquez Glad Guerrero Jr. Max Scherzer and Nico Horner rookie for the white the Cubs and Eric Yadier Molina parallel Cardinals going to Will Christian Cinder guard and Chris sale Clemente all-time Jose Ramirez to 99 for the Cleveland Indians Matt Stubblefield Jackie Robinson Alex Bregman and another sketch This one's not as noticeable Ernie Banks Chicago Cubs Very nice Cubbies Eric Ainge Right right I was like I feel like they could have done a color photo, but I guess not no club Luckily they put the names on the back for a reason and Out of 25 Jose Conceco Oakland Athletics Chad Wright You know that you're not a fan of Conceco will The brothers half of the Batch brothers For the Seattle Mariners Mitch Hannigar to 199 Dual relic and Otto Seattle Mariners going to Eugene Wong Howie Kendrick Dual relic and Otto for the Washington Nationals to 199 huge fan of how he Kendrick Jack Pesma Jean Congrats Jack So there was three autos in this box, which means one of these two might only have one auto perceptive eyes like mine see that stuff and for quad relic For a trade turner in the Washington Nationals to 25 also going to Jack Congrats Exactly will doesn't sign a lot But after he absolutely Crushed the souls of all the Dodgers fans The best things I mean the tops could do is just at least get them into a nice set like this, you know See Well, if you're gonna try to find one try to find an angel's one like an older one I'm sure there is one. You just got to do some research It's a nice auto. Yeah, it's a really nice auto Not scratch. That's for sure He is You mean as far as like autos Or what Tim Duncan's insets the big fundamental so guys Somebody mentioned earlier That frames are a case hit Then why do we have a silver one in this one? I mean, it's up to It's up to the players to sign a contract with them. So Silver frame guys So this case had two So that's gonna be the film last obviously. I don't think so at all Mike I mean to think that we would have consecutive cases that came off the production line I would doubt that highly, you know Sean just pulls hot hot stuff Well, would you consider that a logo man the jumbo patch though? I might right? I mean it was Well, this is the good side of that average, right, right? I Don't think anybody's can complain so Yeah, I think that logo man from the first half was probably the jumbo patch So it had that too Sean just pulls the hot hot heat So the gold was number to ten. What do you think silver is out of 25? very noticeable Mike Like substantial Okay, let's start from the left and end at the right Master hero to knock on the 99 for the New York Yankees and Jonah Wilson Hey, Susie Lizardo Rookie for the Oakland Athletics going to Chad right George Springer and Ryan Sandberg Silver's 15 cool Kershaw parallel Dodgers Harvey Vlasquez Acunha, Jr. Pete Alonzo and Mariano Rivera DeGrom Parallel New York Mets Ryan Harold Roberto Alomar Buster Posey and Ronald Acunha, Jr. Reproduction print Atlanta Braves Brandon Mathis Jackie Robinson parallel to 50 for the Dodgers Harvey Vlasquez.

That's what I'm thinking. It's all-star game But doesn't it seem like it would be like really off-centered if it was like all-star and then game I guess it could be Somebody have to check that out Look at that amazing patch One-of-one One thing we haven't seen will is the We haven't seen a an actual sketch in this. I don't think it's guaranteed per case. Is it well Two got pulled earlier those were from different cases though. Remember this so five and six were from the same case I don't know if it's you know one per case or just randomly inserted, but we got what We had the jumbo patch logo man, which is a one-of-one in the first half We had this which was a one-of-one in the second half So I'm not sure if it if it like guarantees a certain amount of one-of-ones Every master has one sketch. Maybe we still have it in this box Or maybe it was replaced by a second frame in this one. I don't think anybody be mad about that Very nice timing on this Kyle Lewis Seattle Mariners Let's go ahead and set that over to the side Mariners Eugene Wong Face parallel there Was a museum frame auto patch and that's different from a silver rising is an understatement well I Gold frames the case it so Steve does every case guarantee gold frame. So I thought some cases were only we're only silver frames Because I'm not being facetious, but this is another heavy pack Is there a chance that this is another frame? It's cold too like it's metal it is No silver right will hey I'm available for personal breaks after this too. So you want to test that let's do it Hey, Susie Lizardo base rookie for the Oakland days Chad Wright George Springer Ryan Sandberg What am I doing Sean just getting so excited about the frames? Brice Harper red to 50 for the Phillies. That's going to Raymond Ayala Babe Ruth Steven Strasburg and Kyle Lewis Seattle Mariners Eugene Wong Ozzy Smith blew to 150 St. Louis Cardinals will Christian Acunia, Jr. Peter Lonzo And Juan Soto sketch The Washington Nationals reproduction Jack Basma Jin I Think so too Steve or We hit a hot-hot case. I picked it by the way. I picked this out not just top top case Reese Hoskins parallel Philadelphia Phillies Raymond Ayala Mariana Rivera Roberto Alomar and Buster Posey Frames over here. So let's start on left. I don't just go back there and randomly pick something I try to pick the best one for you guys whichever one I'm vibing with Alex Bregman Quad relic to 25 Houston Astros Richard Zimmerman.

Hey Psych2Goers, welcome back. Thank you for being here. When you think of the phrase, creating healthy habits for yourself, you probably think of eating healthy, exercising, and getting to bed on time. These are all great things to do for your physical health. But what about creating healthy habits for your mental health? Keeping a healthy mind as just as important as keeping a healthy body, because one can easily influence the other.  Number one, you are in control of your emotions. Did a recent argument with a friend leave you feeling hurt or upset because of what they said? Have your parents ever told you that you need to do a better job on your chores when you thought you were doing a good job already? In both of these situations, it's understandable that you may feel upset, anxious, annoyed, or even outright angry. And that's okay. Feeling these kinds of emotions doesn't make you weak. It's perfectly normal. It's when you don't allow those negative emotions to take control of you that makes you mentally strong. For example, while arguing with your friend, you didn't take your anger out on them and chose to keep calm, even though you were upset at the time.  You try to move past your emotional hurdles. You recognize these negative emotions and choose to acknowledge them. In doing so, you're able to calmly process them and work through them, leaving you with the ability to respond to most situations with a clear head. Number two, you question your thoughts and beliefs. How does questioning thoughts and beliefs make you mentally strong though? When you think critically about your thoughts and beliefs, you're challenging yourself. With the internet at our fingertips, there is so much information to take in and explore. This can be overwhelming when you're trying to keep up with what's true and what's lies or what's just a rumor. It can be really easy to blindly accept everything you hear as truth. Mentally strong people make a habit of questioning or thinking critically about things they come across, whether it's something a close family member told them or a news article they saw. Questioning things that you read or hear gives you a reason to dig deeper, allowing you to learn more and gives you the opportunity to learn about different people's perspectives.  Have you ever wanted to increase your own level of happiness? Would you like to do something in particular to help raise your joy and well-being? Or maybe you've always wanted to experience an Ivy League education without the commitment. Yale University is offering an online course called The Science of Well-Being, where Dr. Santos reveals certain misconceptions about happiness and recommends tips for increasing happiness, such as savoring our everyday experiences and appreciating them while they happen, as well as encouraging random acts of kindness. These are all just small snippets of what the course has to offer. If you like the tips from this video and wanna learn more about how to increase your own well-being and productivity, then you should check out The Science of Well-Being. Did we also mention that over 3 million people have enrolled and it's the online equivalent to their most popular on-campus course? The course is completely online, self-paced, and the best part yet, you can earn a certificate from Yale upon completion. So make sure you click the description box below to check out the course. Number three, you have healthy boundaries in place for yourself.  Do you drop everything you're doing to help out a friend or family member when they need a favor? Creating healthy boundaries for the people in your life is a good habit for our mental strength. According to an article from PsychCentral, boundaries are a measure of your self-esteem. When you create healthy boundaries, you're letting others know how to treat you while allowing you to be your best self. When you don't have boundaries, it's easier to always say yes to people.  While wanting to be there for others and help them isn't necessarily a bad thing, always being available at everyone's beck and call can put unneeded stress on you. You can't pour out of an empty cup. By not setting healthy boundaries, there's a good chance that eventually, your cup will run out.  Number four, you actively learn from your mistakes. Have you ever said something that wasn't nice, born out of anger or frustration, or have you gotten a lower grade on a test than what you were expecting? You might dwell on situations where you weren't acting your best and focus on them. Obsessing over things you've done in the past only adds more stress to your plate. When you start to think about what happened, figure out why it happened and make a plan for how to improve on it next time. This will make you mentally stronger because it shows that you're choosing to grow and learn from past mistakes. Number five, you limit your time on social media. How many hours do you spend on social media a day? Social media is a huge part of our society and our daily lives. It can be a great way to connect with friends and family and is filled with endless memes and cute cat pictures. But there can be risks to scrolling through Instagram. Apps like Facebook and Instagram make it easy to compare your life to others. Those glossy, filtered photos and the posts about their happy lives can make it look like the grass is greener on their side and an unhealthy game of comparison can start in your heart. According to a study, prolonged use of social media sites and apps may be linked to symptoms of depression. When exposed to all of that social media, you can start to think you aren't good enough or be envious of the things you see people doing online. Limiting your use of social media can help you avoid this harmful comparison game. Whether you give yourself an allotted amount of time to check social media each day or you only check at night or in the morning, limiting your time on social media can help make you mentally strong. And number six, taking time for yourself. Do you have long days at school or at work? Do you often choose to do more work than what is asked of you? Are you constantly on the go and feel like you have to be doing something to stay productive? Going above and beyond and keeping up on productive tasks is great. But if you don't take time for yourself to recharge, your mental health can take a hit. According to an article from PsychCentral, downtime allows your brain to restore attention and motivation. It promotes creativity, strengthens memory, and can even make you more productive in the long run. When you take a little time out of your busy day to go for a walk, read a book, or even just lay on the couch and watch your favorite TV show. You're allowing your mind to take a break and recharge. Just like you sometimes need a nap after lunch to boost your physical energy, your mind needs rest too. Do you practice any of these habits to stay mentally strong? If so, have they helped you? Or do you know someone who could benefit from these habits? Let us know in the comments below. We'd love to know your thoughts. A huge shout out to Coursera for sponsoring this video and offering a Yale University course to our viewers. Don't forget to hit the subscribe button for more Psych2Go videos. Thank you for watching and we'll see you next time.

Okay, so that brings us to the end of the talk day, of the last day of the first All Systems Go conference. So, yeah, this is the first year. We were very fortunate to have a really good group of people to help us out. So first of all, the first thing I would like to do, so they can, so I'm not standing up here alone actually, is to get all the people who helped out along the way to come up. That's the organizers, volunteers, the first speakers who signed on, the topic representatives. Please come on up. Woo! You, Jean-Lucca. Jean-Lucca? So anybody missing? Yes, okay, good. Lars is coming. And Daniel is downstairs, he was behind the bar doing the video stuff the whole time and he always avoids photos and getting on stage. But I think you probably saw him back there, so yeah, he's definitely a part of the team. Yeah, so first of all, a round of applause for everyone, which you already did, thank you, but another one. I would especially like to thank Lexi for helping out so much. She had most of the burden of doing all the things. And so like all the graphics you see, anything printed, anything like that is her doing, yeah. So we actually came on, we started this adventure, I don't know, it was like the beginning of, kind of the beginning of 2017 and then I was talking to individuals and then some people signed on, like yeah, let's do this thing. And so we're very happy to have now gotten there and finished it up so that we can actually start thinking about next year without all the pressure of actually getting really close to it yet. So yeah, so we will be doing this next year. And a group of companies that actually helped us get to this point are the sponsors, and so I wanna thank them again. So the terrestrial sponsors, we had Red Hat, which we have a lot of people. Yeah, there you go, oh, we're doing that again. Okay. We have Open Sousa. Yeah, we have Holger and Daniel, who's been helping doing the video stuff. Then we have Pantheon, right there. Google, thank you Matthew for hooking up a song like that. Core OS, of course, and the people from Chef. And our lunar sponsors who, hey, Redbeard, you're supposed to be up here, man. And our lunar sponsors, which we were very happy to have, and we're actually, you know, participated a lot. I mean, you saw a lot of talks from the Facebook people. They had, I think, eight people in total here. And so we're very, very happy to have their support. And like I said, I'm from Kinfolk. We were really interested in doing this thing. It was kind of a selfish thing because I think a lot of you know we were involved with the system deconf organization, but we do a lot of things at this level. And so we were like, actually, we'd like to talk about that other stuff as well. And so it was kind of a vehicle for that. It was a vehicle for, you know, at a system deconf people were submitting stuff that was not really a system D stuff, but it was the space level that was interesting for us all and had some relationship with all of it together. So yeah, we're very happy we were able to realize that. Okay, am I running out of things? I think, I have to make sure I'm thanking everybody. Oh, hold on, there's one really big group. Yeah, and our media sponsors were Linux Magazine. So yeah, I have to add that one, sorry. And one of the most visible groups of people that you don't see, I know it's an oxymoron, are the video people. So that's the group of the CCC, VOC. What does that stand for, Daniel, exactly? Okay, the Chaos Communications Congress Video Operations Center. It's great to have them.  They were up on, well, except for yesterday when we had the power outage because of the smoking electrical box. We had, the videos are up on YouTube and the VOC service within an hour. It's pretty amazing and we're very happy to have that. So I would actually like to have a question and comment section, because session, I would like, we have things that, you know, maybe we wouldn't know we need to do differently, but how about you guys? What did you like the best? What would you change? I don't know, raise your hands and I'll give you the mic. I'm sure, I've heard opinions. I heard, for example, there was not enough meat at the food trucks. To be honest, when we ordered the burger truck, we did not know it was an all vegan burger truck. We knew they had vegan burgers, but we didn't know that's all they had. But yeah, I think they were pretty good. What's that? There you go, okay. So, better coffee. I have heard that. I would have liked Club Mate, is that one thing? Yeah. You like the charity, Mate? Okay, cool. That's good to hear. I think actually the charity office, it's the beverage, one of the beverage companies that offers back there. They actually have an office in this building. So I think that's why they have that. Yeah, anything else? Were there too many? Yeah. I will gladly pay more for better beer, for real beer. You would pay more for better beer. Okay. So I must say, so with this conference, so as you know, when you get a receipt or anything, everything comes from Kenfolk, we are not trying to make any money on this conference. In fact, we're like, I think about 10,000 and minus this year that we're covering ourselves. But we want to do more offering. We would love to offer just, you give you a ticket and you can get something from the catering company or whatever like that. So if we can get more sponsor money, that will all go towards making things like more beer, better beer, more coffee, and making it free, that will make it possible. So contact the people in your organization who do this and see if they can sponsor, because it's just gonna go into the conference. More things? It would be great to have plastic water bottles so that I don't have to care about them so much and you can close them. Thank you. How were the water bottles here? They were glasses, okay, from the back. Okay, sorry, we had our own stash back here. I wanted to thank that the price was so cheap that allowed me as a hobbyist to come and enjoy all these things. That was absolutely something we were hoping. We would like more students as many as possible to come. I think one of the things that I think about with this is that, I don't know, in the early 2000s, not everything was under, I like, I mean, I'm going to a Linux Foundation event right after this, literally right after this. We should be there at midnight tonight. And so, but it seems like a lot of things are falling under the Linux Foundation thing and those are usually very expensive and there's a lot of more show and I guess marketing stuff and that's not what this is trying to be. It's trying to be really a community conference where everybody can participate. So yeah, we'll try to keep it that way. So thanks for that feedback. Thank you for having a code of conduct. It made me more comfortable to attend. Yeah, thanks for that. Yeah, we actually got to that later than we wanted to as we did with 90% of the things we were doing. But we also like actually wanna thank one of our sponsors because they actually kicked her butt on that because Chef, they have a requirement that you have a code of conduct but since we were already actually looking at doing this, we were actually looking at the Chef code of conduct already before they said that and we actually adopted that because they have a very thorough one which is based on the Adda Foundation code of conduct and which I think is then also from the Python Foundation. And so yeah, and also diversity is something we have to get better at here. So we will definitely be doing more work in that area. I have a question. What do you think about having a hacker day or a workshop day, stuff like that? Okay, actually to get a lot of this feedback, we will be sending a questionnaire out, a survey, and we will be asking for your feedback on this and then we can run the numbers. So those things are gonna be questions like that, questions like should this be on the weekend or should it be a weekday? Should we make it at the end of the week and then have maybe a hacker session on the weekend? And so we'll be asking these questions so expect that in the next, I would say probably two weeks. Yeah. Any more, any more comments, questions? I like the venue, it's a lot more interesting than like a standard hotel conference room or something like that. Bit more atmosphere. We can't afford those anyway. Yeah, we like it too. Just to reiterate the community approach of it and the vendors and everything, it's nice to go to conferences like that for a change. Cool. Yeah, I mean, also some of the other questionnaire are gonna be like, should we have a project booth for open source projects and things like that? That's kind of thinking like looking like Fostum or something. What we're trying to do very different than things like Fostum is stay very focused on this and not try to go everywhere. I actually liked that there weren't product booths. I liked that none of these people are marketers, that there are no marketers here that nobody was trying to sell me any products and that I felt like there was a lot more honesty about like defects in code and problems with things because we're not a bunch of marketers or developer advocates or things like that we're just the people who work on things. So I felt like the lack of booths was awesome. Is that like project, like if Debian came for example or okay, well aren't we all though? We all tried to write code and get everybody to use it. Okay, cool, thanks. Okay then, anybody else have anything? Yeah, Lexie? I just wanted to kind of thank Chris because he's put his heart and soul into this and if we could all just kind of give him a round of applause for people. So I guess that's a wrap for all systems go. Oh, we have somebody else. Oh, okay, okay, can somebody, a selfie, how do we do that? We don't have that on. Well, we have a photographer here. Hold on, can you get in the middle, Mary? Okay, just stay here and I'll see you up there. And I'll see you. Okay, okay, after we say, we're gonna do that after we, anyway, so I guess that's it for all systems go 2017. We will try to do one next year. And yeah, so keep your eyes out on our Twitter feed. Oh, one thing I wanted to say, we have videos. The videos are up there. If you like one, share it on whatever avenue you use for that. And yeah, that'll get the word out about what we do, what this is about. And yeah, so thanks for coming.
