What is going on guys welcome back to the channel critical overload here So most of this video is going to be me discussing I know what you did last summer three most specifically related to Julie James Roll in the upcoming. I know what you did last summer three. Yes. I know there's a third movie already But I'm gonna keep calling this three cuz I it seems to be bugging some people who watch my video So I'm just gonna keep calling this three because I believe this is the true third movie despite it being the fourth But our discussion will be based on Leia McKendrick's comments with Perry from Collider today This is important because it pertains to a tweet. Sinisterf put out not too long ago Where previously tweeted that the script for the film isn't ready, which could of course be ready by now but the pitch that was Very impressive to the Sony execs when the film got announced back in 2023 of last year last February The pitch apparently cannot work without Julie according to Sinisterf I propose the question of why in my video and of course some not thinking outside the box immediately jump to the Stereotypical the obvious all because she was the OG final girl. That's a given But what about this pitch is making Julie a necessity? Besides just checking the box of we got the OG final girl back Well, now we have an idea it seems Leia went into her being protective of this IP during these comments with Perry She talked about the director gin and then she switched into discussing some plot details So I'm gonna talk about all of that right now. She says so I kind of said I'm really burnt out on the studio big IP They had killed my grease prequel at Paramount and I was like I can't build from the ground up over many years For an IP that I don't have ownership of at all and then my team called me and they're like So we know you say you didn't want to do any of that anymore, but they are thinking of bringing back I know what you did last summer and I was like maybe one more The reason I was able to go in is because it was a Sony film I have a relationship with Sony and the producers. I also had a relationship with And I found out it was gin that was gonna be directing it and more than anything I thought because my love is so deep for I know what you did last summer. I have to protect it I must protect it. I can't let this be like cheesy and a cash grab Nothing anybody was gonna make it that but you would get it Perry when it's like They're rebooting something you love so deeply from your childhood You're like, I know how we can do this and not make it cheesy and it can stay true to the mythology And we can bring back the OG's and it can be a culmination. You have all these ideas So I met with Jen Jen is cool Jen is so smart Jen is just like down to try some edgy cool ass shit And I was like I'm gonna give this my best shot and I pitched all they told me was they were like We need to know the accident the events that kick it off and know who the killer is Because they knew that if I had to do a whole fleshed out process of pitching I was probably just not gonna do it because my heart had been so broken by the reboot game But when they told me that I was like, I know what I'm gonna do and no spoilers But I will say that I think if you're an OG fan like me and you I think you're gonna be happy I think you're going to get it at its core Now this is her getting into the plot details and how Julie seems to be very relevant in a necessity to this pitch At its core I think it really reckons with some big ideas about hero and villain right and wrong how your Skeletons come back to haunt you and in the age of the internet and the age where fame is such a revered concept The creation of tiktok and social media who is Julie James in a world where there are no secrets anymore I already feel like I'm saying too much, but I think at its core if you watch the original I don't know if you watched it recently. I obviously watch it eight million times. I'm working on it But it's fun. It's just a popcorn while ride. It's campy at times Jennifer. Love you It is so hot Freddie Prince Jr. Is so hot Sarah Michelle Geller Ryan Felipe. They're so gorgeous It's like beautiful people behaving badly. You just can't get enough of it. There's a lot of that in this film So the comments there obviously about social media are what's making this interesting and then also how she says Who is Julie James in a world where there are no secrets anymore? So I'm going what is going to happen with Julie? That's what I want to discuss. Are we going to see a story in which what happened with with Ben Willis is going to be some type of legend in the town some type of Event that has now grown into a viral sensation because of Gen Z Julie who never wanted to be famous for such an it such an event has acquired a lot of fame and Then there's also maybe some attention on Julie that she again didn't want and now it's not going to be something for Ben Willis Obviously because he's dead But she does something brand new and then that comes back to bite her Because now somebody else is gonna don the fisherman costume to stalk her and go after her the same way Ben Willis did in those first two films That's what I was leaning on. That's the only plausible scenario. I can see playing out now Julie has acquired some sort of attention in the public eye some sort of fame because of what happened all those years ago with her friends because in that town Whoever the new kids are and the current climate that we live in They've turned it into some sort of viral sensation which has led to Julie getting a lot of attention in the public eye She has no privacy and there's some drastic event that occurs that sparks a new killer to arrive and Maybe they themselves are connected to the Ben Willis incident I don't know or maybe something about the Ben Willis incident has impacted their life And now this new event that Julie finds herself at the center of maybe with her kids too is also Going to be something related to their motives. That's what I was thinking of as the plausible outcome But the mention of social media to me does sound like they are borrowing Some ideas from what we didn't get in the urban legend reboot that screams is gonna do We'll just have to wait and see. I just thought it was very interesting for them to mention social media and TikTok and Who is Julie James in a world where? There are no secrets anymore. I Would imagine again that we're just going to be exploring new secrets that Julie has some new event And that's what's gonna spawn it because you can't do Ben Willis anymore since he's dead What do you guys think that new event will be do you think I'm on the right track? What do you think is going to go down with Julie James in I know what you did last summer 3 and why she will Be so important. There's some sort of event that has to kick it off as they highlighted in their comments But what is it? I would guess going off of these mentions of social media that it again will pertain to some sort of Tragic incident that Julie finds herself at the center of that is a reminiscent reminder Or very reminiscent of what happened with her and her friends all those years ago And maybe her kids are involved now and the person that is angry about this Just dons the fisherman costume to taunt Julie as a reminder of you've already done this before and this is a reminder to you of Who came after you in the past and I just want to really traumatize you now by reminding you of you've already been in the scenario like this That's the only reason I can see the fisherman costume reappearing granted I wouldn't necessarily to be too upset if they ditched it, but I could see the killer donning the costume just to fuck with Julie Or even better What if like I was referencing earlier in the video the costume itself the fisherman is very popular in that North Carolina town now It's just grown into this popular thing people wear it all the time around Halloween People prank play pranks on each other wearing the costume It's just this viral sensation and that's the justification as to why the costume is still being used in the story That's the that's the easiest way to do it if you're gonna bring in social media The the costume itself is very popular in the town because of what happened all those years ago with Julie and her friends And you actually are drawing a bit of inspiration from Scream and the stab franchise and how that popularized the ghostface costume So I like that let me know what you guys think about this down in the comment section below if you haven't already Of course make sure you subscribe turn on post notification in this video in the description I'll have links on my social media accounts I am on Facebook Twitter and Instagram you can message me there to let me know If there's any movies news or reviews you let me to cover in the future and with all that in mind guys I will see you in the next video


Hey hello, how are you doing today? Hey hello, how are you doing today? Hey hello, how are you doing today? Hey hello, how are you doing today? I'm terrible! I'm awful! How are you doing today? Juice! Hey, welcome back to our stupider access to Corbin. I'm Rick. You can follow us on Instagram, Twitter, for more juicy content. Thanks for watching. Button because why, why, why? It helps Al go rhythm. Yes, he has bad rhythm, but it helps him. He does, and unfortunately his wife is pregnant now because of it. And we need to help Al understand the rhythm method more effectively so that he doesn't have a fourteenth child. Agreed. Today we have a video that's called, How did India fall to the Europeans? They, they too, did not know how to control the rhythm method. And I'm guessing this is from a YouTube channel called Odd Compass. And so this is basically how the colonialism started. Interesting. I don't think we've gone over that. Like when they exactly came in and like how the process started. Yeah. All informational videos, I always say, if anything's wrong, blame that video, not this video. Yes. Because I'm just taking it at face value. And so I'm going to get a little more knowledge for our brain holes here. In 1757, the British East India Company won the battle of Placie and took control of the wealthy region of Bengal. The company, a private corporation using contracted foot soldiers, now governed more people than the English crowd. Just over a century later, the British controlled the majority of the needs of continent, either directly or through princely states. But began as a trading mission transformed into total domination. The rest of Asia fared no better. But why didn't history play out differently? Why didn't Indian powers have the political, economic, and military wherewithal to resist European colonization? Why wasn't 1757 marked by Bengali soldiers sieging and taking London? And more broadly, how did the West become so much more powerful than the East? Well, Indians are not aggressors. So we were way to say colonization. The Europeans salivated over the profits near East middlemen made trading with the rest of Asia. Indian textiles, Chinese porcelain, Indonesian spices. This inspired the great powers of Europe to establish a direct trade with Asia that would circumvent the Ottomans and Mamluks entirely. But the Europeans were minor players in the global economy at this time. The prosperous Asian powers had no incentive to establish a direct trade with distant Europe. And so it was Europe who would have to seek out Asia, not the other way around. This would lead to some fascinating developments. Consider the Iberians, Spain, and Portugal. There were only two options for circumventing Ottoman and Mamluks intervention round the coast of Africa, or sail west into the unknown. In the mid 15th century, Portugal was suffering from scarce wood supplies. In response, the Portuguese crown encouraged the construction of larger, more efficient vessels by providing tax benefits to shipbuilders who built big. And so shipbuilders in Portugal began to develop larger vessels. They also incorporated innovative new shipbuilding technologies from neighboring North Africa. This led to the production of massive ocean-growing vessels that could be fitted with heavy cannons. Perfect for a long intercontinental journey. Using these vessels, the Portuguese were able to round the Cape of Good Hope in 1498 and reach Asia. Portuguese explorer Vasco de Gama arrived on the Indian coast, making direct contact with Indian powers for the first time. Using similar vessels, the Spanish, also attempting to find a route to India that would circumvent the Ottomans, bumped into the New World. Jackpot! The discovery of the New World flooded European markets with silver, which would soon have an enormous impact on the dynamics between Europe and Asia. The sudden excess of silver made Europeans very attractive trading partners for Asian powers, who were facing a systemic silver shortage. In fact, records indicate that the silver shortage in Asia was responsible for a number of political crises across the continent. And so European merchants arriving in the East essentially bought their way into Asian trade hegemony using their new-found silver supply. With Europeans' establishment of direct trade, the new dynamic had formed. Asia generated products in demand in Europe, and Europeans paid for those products with silver. As they had an abundance of silver on hand, Europeans had become ideal trading partners. For example, the first British trading post in India, Fort St. George near Chennai, was actually encouraged by the local Poligar Lord, who so badly wanted the British trading bear that he offered to pay for half the construction cost. He also offered military protection and tax privileges. It's important to understand that Europeans adopted a conciliatory policy towards Asian Great Powers. In fact, early records revealed that the Europeans respected, feared, and even admired their most significant Asian counterparts, the Moguls, the Cheng, the Vijayanagar Empire, the Tokugawa Shogun, and others. I love these sounds. With massive, cannon-fitted ships, Europeans had an advantage in most naval battles. They could also lay siege to fortified coastal cities. Thus, early Europeans, like the Portuguese, limited their aggression to small coastal enclaves. This was not a problem for the Indian Great Powers. At times, they even encouraged European aggression. Surprise! In 1510 CE, the Vijayanagar Empire assisted the Portuguese in taking Goa from the Bijapur Sultanate. In fact, Vijayanagar even sent an Allied pirate leader with 5,000 soldiers under his command to help the Portuguese take Goa. Goa was the hub of the maritime horse trade. The enemy of my enemy is my friend. It was preferable for the horse trade to be controlled by the neutral Portuguese than for it to be controlled by a rival Sultanate. So, we know that the dynamic between the European and Asian powers was largely cooperative from the 1500s to the mid-1700s. Though much fanfare has been made about early European aggression, it was constrained to small coastal enclaves and only with the explicit or implicit permission of the Asian Great Powers. But this dynamic would not last forever. Starting in the mid-1700s, more than two centuries after Vasco de Gama landed in South India, the Europeans did begin to aggressively expand. How did they transform their trading networks into colonial empires? Let's keep our lens pointed at India for now. Number 1 European institutions were stable enough that they outlasted their strongest rivals. In India, for example, the British were active for more than a century before Mughal power finally waned. The Mughals were replaced by the Marathas, Hyderbavis, Bengalis, Sikhs, Rajputs, Mysoreans, and others. With imperial power in India split between so many different entities, the British began to assemble the building blocks of a colonial empire. Number 2 European officials couldn't be easily bribed to switch sides. Though the agents of European trading companies did regularly accept bribes that could not be easily bribed into treasonous activity. Why? They would be killed. Probably like European officials could simply be replaced. Yeah. They had no independent political power. By contrast, Indian lords were easily bribed to switch sides. And most Indian soldiers were bound to their lord through land or clantize. As such, disloyal Indian lords could not simply be replaced. They had independent political power. Number 3 Europeans were not risking much by fighting far away from home. When Europeans lost battles in Asia, it did not threaten their civilizational existence or even their mission. They could simply regroup and reinforce. But when an Indian power lost battles, it could lead to total collapse. Indian powers were especially vulnerable to a total and sudden collapse due to the domino effect of local lords switching sides. This is a well-established historical pattern. The Mauryas, Guptas, Chalakyas, Palavas, Vjainagar, the list of sudden imperial collapses in Indian history goes on and on. Number 4 European militaries had superior organizational discipline. Military developments in Europe led to drill tactics in high organizational discipline. This was made even more possible by the fact that Europeans used regulars, full-time professional soldiers. Though not universally the case, many Indian militaries had not yet established this level of organizational discipline as their soldiers were not full-time. On Bengali soldiers, their motive fighting is crowding without any order and in great confusion. In imitation of their European neighbors, they form into something resembling battalions, but it is of little use. Their bravery does not compensate for their deficiency in discipline and tactics. Number 5 Europeans used local soldiers. By the mid-1700s, European armies in India fielded mostly local soldiers, ensuring that they were not at a numerical disadvantage. How did that happen? European trading companies and governors offered regular pay and commissions to saw his money. Yep, follow the money. This attracted skilled local soldiers who preferred guaranteed, timely compensation. By contrast, Indian powers granted feudal lords, land and tax assessment rights. And through that system, soldiers would eventually be paid. But this system was high risk and created additional bureaucracy. Indian soldiers would sometimes be left unpaid or underpaid. Many Indian soldiers saw European military contracts desirable. They chose to fight as regulars for the various East India trading companies, serving under European officers. How did the Europeans develop these advantages, while Indians did not? The answer lies in revolution hundreds of years in the making. The military revolution hypothesis is based on the idea that artillery innovations in late medieval Europe led to sweeping changes in society, some of which would prove advantageous for building colonial empires. Side note, India did go through a mini military revolution in response to new artillery developments too. Yeah, they put cannons on camels. Indian gunpowder empires for details. Oh well. Okay, back to the European military revolution. In the 1400s, new cannons were introduced that can break medieval castle walls, and so European rulers scrambled for a solution. This led to a new style of artillery resistant fortifications, with angled bastions and intersecting fields of fire known as star fortresses. Star fortresses were very expensive to build and required a large and costly army to garrison or attack. In fact, successful sieges could take years. These developments led to spectacular increases in budgets, taxes and staffs. European lords that were unable to manage these rising costs were eventually conquered by those with a centralized administrative apparatus that could raise more money. The pressure to centralize and extend the state apparatus consumed many smaller feudal lords. The European nation states were born, giving rise to many financial, logistical and administrative innovations. And so they suddenly found themselves advantaged. Consider the ocean-going warships that enabled European powers to establish maritime supremacy. Here's a little known fact. The great powers of the East did have the technological know-how to build ocean-going warships with heavy cannons. But the devil is in the details. Like star fortresses, ocean-going warships were very expensive, which reinforced pressures for more tax revenue and more intrusive state intervention. But in India, native powers were not sufficiently centralized. Maintaining a competitive naval fleet was simply implausible. Imperial powers like the Moguls and Vijayanagar did maintain navies. In fact, Vijayanagar used their navy to bully Pegu and Lanka into paying tribute. But to build a fleet that encountered the Europeans, Indian great powers would have had to take more direct control over their coastal feudatories. They would also have had to spend imperial resources on ships as opposed to land armies. In the Indian context, they had more pressing concerns. Land wars against ambitious Indian rivals. It was a lose-lose situation in the long-term, unless Indian powers could figure out a way to centralize their administrations and rid themselves of feudal hierarchies. Despite European aggression in the early to mid 1700s, the true shift in power began with the Industrial Revolution. Starting in the mid to late 1700s, the European development rapidly outstripped that of the rest of the world and gave rise to roughly two centuries of global dominance. What was the recipe for this great divergence? One cup luck, one pinch pause. Let's compare the Wood and Coal situation in England, India and Japan in the 1700s. In India, there were plentiful forests. As such, there were sufficient wood resources to fuel a vibrant economy. There was no need to switch to the use of coal as a power source. In England and Japan, however, wood had been over-harvested. Interestingly, the British and the Japanese approached the problem in very different ways. The Japanese sought to fix the ecological damage. They imposed very strict laws including capital punishment for wood harvesting without a license. These policies were successful. Soon, healthy forests were turned into the normal use of wood. England simply switched to the use of coal and stole the wood, which is why London was the filthiest city in the world. They didn't predict the steam engine, power loom, or high production factories. It was a lucky break that fueled an industrial revolution. And thanks to strong protectionist policies, British industries were healthy enough to take advantage of new commercial technology. Not in their lungs though. Well, the owners didn't have to worry about that. The British industry was able to produce at such a high volume and at such a low cost that they out-competed the entire Indian textile industry, which was the world's largest producer of textile. But Indian powers did not have the time to properly react. They were under fire from both colonial forces and opportunistic neighbors. Every year, industrial Europe grew more powerful and the gap between the West and the rest of the world grew larger. Conquered Indians were not useful to the British as producers or innovators. They were now only useful as raw material providers and customers. And laborers. This continent, and many other parts of Asia, was rapidly deindustrialized while Europe flourished. But the world never stands still. Today, the East is securing its historical position at the top of the global power hierarchy. Ending the West's 200-year turn. Got some exciting news for the channel. I know a lot of you have been asking about whether I'm going to start a Patreon. I've actually gone ahead and started a Creator Guild page. On Creator Guild, you can support me in a number of different ways from making custom requests to leaving tips. That was a lot of great information. Yeah, I think we've seen a few videos by this channel. I recognize the animation voices. Yeah, I think there's a couple channels that have the animation and kind of narration style. But yeah, it's obviously always very informative. Like I said, if anything is incorrect or missing, please let us know what that is down in the comments below, obviously. But it seems like it was a lot of the fact that India wasn't one full nation. And so they didn't have to conquer the entire nation. Little by little.  Exactly. And let the infighting disseminate and dissolve the strength and the potential. It's what's going on now with the shift to Asia from the West. Because from World War II on, the West has been the dominant superpower in the world. And that has radically shifted. And it's now Asia between India and China being more powerful than the United States. And one of the contributing factors is that we are not the United States of America anymore. We are the divided states of America. And in our lifetime, you're going to see boundaries shift, successions. You know, there's going to be states that leave the Union. Oh, I can't wait. You heard about Idaho and Oregon? Yeah. Idaho, the Republicans want to move the border of Idaho West into Oregon because Eastern Oregon is more Republican, but all of Oregon is Democrat. So what's the solution? Well, we'll just move the boundary and make Idaho a bigger state so we can absorb the Republicans and minimize. Meanwhile, the rest of the world is growing and advancing. That won't happen. California's tried it. The fact that legislatures are having to spend their time on this and the fact that the kinds of things our legislatures are looking at in bills and our legal system is dealing with in the courts, the rest of the world is laughing at our stupidity as they should.  Yeah, that's true. But the world is also full of imbeciles. Yeah, but we have a massive percentage of our population comparatively. We're just loud.  No, no, no, no, no.    But another good informative video. Very. Obviously, the Industrial Revolution had obviously a lot to do in that sense. It's no surprise that you agreed what Japan did. I love that as opposed to like, you know, I feel like that's the route a lot of the world is going now what Japan did earlier, like in terms of trying to replenish the environmental wrongs it did. So we're trying to do it now, but we're not going to see the benefits for another at minimum 100 years of certain people like planning for us again and then coming back. You're not going to see that overnight. No. It's going to take a long time. And by that time, who knows what the technology is. Yeah. And part of that for Japan was the combination of the fact that they were being wise and looking at things from a healthy stewardship and love perspective. And they didn't have the power to just go take stuff from other people. Yeah. That's part of the problem. And it also didn't include the fact that a lot of the West's expansion and they're not the only ones to do this, but a lot of it is based on the fact of we're the enlightened ones.  And that's not good. No. Oh. It's why you see so much British construction in India because they say, You know what? What you guys do is unenlightened. Let us enlighten you. But you also see Portuguese, Spanish. Yeah. Because the conquerors get to build. Even some Chinese. Yeah. It's why you have so few Native American things here in America. What? What did we do to them? We just did a few things. Wow. Anyways, fantastic video. Let us know what other videos we can react to down below.


Live from Las Vegas, it's theCUBE, covering AWS re-invent 2019. Brought to you by Amazon Web Services and Intel, along with its ecosystem partners. Hello, welcome back to The Sands here. We are live here in Las Vegas, along with Justin Moren. I'm John Walls, you're watching theCUBE and our coverage here of AWS re-invent 2019. Day one, off and rolling, Andy Jassy on the keynote stage this morning for a couple of hours and now a jam-packed show for him. Chris Wright joins us, the CTO at Red Hat, waking his way toward cube Hall of Fame status. Not there yet, we're getting there. This is probably like the 50th appearance I think. Good to see you. Good to see you. Yeah, always a pleasure. First off, let's just talk about kind of the broad landscape right now, the pace of innovation that's going on and what's happening in the open cloud.  You've got to play catch up and talk about maybe that friction, if you will, and what people are learning about that in terms of trying to get caught up to the folks that have the head start. Well, I think number one, the way I like to frame it is open source is the source of innovation for the industry and part of that is you look at the collaborative model, bringing different people together across industry to build technology together. It's hard to compete with that pace and speed. The challenge, of course, is as you describe, how do you consume that? How do you bring it into the enterprise, which has got a whole business that's running off of infrastructure that has been sustaining their business for potentially decades. So there's that impedance mismatch of needing to go quickly to keep a breast of the technology changes, while honoring the fact that your core business is running already on key technology. So I think looking at how you bring platforms in that support the newer technologies as well as create connections or even support existing applications is a great way to kind of bridge that gap and then partnering with people who can build a bridge, like an impedance match between your speed and the speed of innovation is a great way to kind of harness the power without exposing yourself to the ragged edges as much. Yeah, talk to us a bit more about enterprise experience with open source. Red Hat has a long heritage of providing open source to enterprise and pretty much sits out as a unique example of how you make money with open source. So enterprises have lots of open source that they are using every day now. Linux has come into the enterprise left front and center, but there's a lot more open source technologies that enterprises are using today. So give us a bit of a flavor of how enterprises are coming to grips with how open source helps sustain their business. Well, in one sense, it's that innovation engine. So it's bringing new technology in. And in another sense, it's what we've experienced in the Linux space is it was driving a kind of commoditization of infrastructure. So switching away from the traditional vertically integrated stack of a risk Unix environment to providing choice. So you have a common platform that you can target all your applications to that creates independence from the underlying hardware. That's something that provided real value to the enterprise. That notion continues to play out today as infrastructure changes. It's not just hardware. It's virtualized data centers. It's public clouds. How do you create that consistency for developers to target their applications to as well as the operations teams to manage? You know, it's through leveraging open source and bringing a common platform into your environment. As you go up the stack, I think you get more and more proliferation of ideas and choices from developer tools and modules and dependencies. Most software stacks today have some open source even included inside. Whether you're building exclusively on top of a platform that's open source based, you're probably also including open source into your application. So it's a whole variety from building your key infrastructure to supporting your enterprise applications. And you mentioned openness, which I know is a big, very important thing to Red Hat. And one thing that Red Hat's been speaking of lately is open hybrid cloud. So maybe you can explain that to us what is open hybrid cloud? What does Red Hat mean by that? Sure, so open hybrid cloud for us, start with open, that's our platforms are built from open source projects. So we work across like literally thousands of open source projects, bring those together into products that build our platform. Also, we create an open ecosystem. So we're really fostering partnerships and collaboration at every level from the developer level up through our commercial partnerships. The hybrid piece is talking about where you deploy this infrastructure. Inside your data center, on bare metal servers, inside your data center, virtualize in a private cloud, across multiple public clouds and increasingly out to the edge. So that notion of what is the data center to me really encompasses all those different footprints. So the hybrid cloud, cloud meaning give a cloud like experience from an operations point of view, simple to operate, meaning we're doing everything we can to help operators manage that infrastructure from a developer point of view, servicing functionality as services and APIs.  So it's across all that. You talk about data in the edge, which the fact that there's so much, the computing is going on out there and staying closer to the source, right? We're not bringing it back in, you're leaving it out there. That adds a whole new level of complexity too, I would think, and scale, massive amounts, IoT, what everything is happening out there. So what are you seeing in that, in terms of handling that complexity and addressing challenges that you see coming as this growth, this tremendous growth continues? Well, one, it's how do you manage all of that infrastructure? So I think having some consistency is a great way to manage that. So using the same platform across all of those different environments, including the edge, that's really going to give you a direct benefit. Two, targeting your applications to that same common platform, having the ability to recognize some dependencies. So maybe you have a dependency on a data set and that data sets supplied from sources that are in an edge location. We can codify that and then enable developers to build applications, to test dev prod across a variety of environments, pushing all the way out to an edge deployment where thinking you're taking in a lot of data, you may be building models in a scale-out environment internally in your private cloud or out in the public cloud, taking those models, deploying those to the edge for inference in real time to make real-time decisions based on data flows through the system. I mean, that's the world that we live in today. So managing that complexity is critical. Automation for managing that, consistency, common platforms I think are key tools that we can use to help build up that rich infrastructure. Just from an industry perspective, so who is that applied to in your mind? What kind of industry is looking at this and saying, all right, this is an opportunity but also a challenge for us in something we really need to address? What's the array there, do you think? Honestly, I see it cross almost all market verticals. So we look at the world of platform-centric view from a Red Hat perspective. So we look at the world across industries. What I find interesting in the edge use cases is they tend to get more vertically specific. So in a manufacturing case, maybe you're dealing with a manufacturing line, which is a set of applications and a set of devices which looks quite different from a retail office or branch office environment. Some similar problems, but very different environments. And then you take the service provider's networks, the telco network out of the edge, and that looks quite different from a manufacturing floor. So it's a wide variety of vertically oriented solutions drawing from some common platform technologies, containers, Linux, how do you do automation across all of those environments, machine learning tools. Those are the things that I think are consistent, but you get a lot of very vertically focused use cases. Yeah, I know in the keynote today that Andy was mentioning that they love open source and we're here at Amazon and he likes to talk about their compatibility. And customer choice is also very important to Amazon's. But tell us a little bit about how openness interacts with somewhere like AWS. I mean, we're here at ReInvent, which is an AWS show. So how does Red Hat and AWS work together? How do you coexist in this ecosystem and get the benefits of open source technologies? We coexist in a number of different ways. One would be as engineers working together in open source communities building technology. Another is we have commercial partnerships. So we run our platforms on top of AWS. So we bring customers to AWS, which is a shared, we have a shared benefit there. And then there's also areas where we have competitive offerings. So it's a full spectrum, kind of the modern world of the buzzword, co-op petition or whatever. I really think when you look in the open source communities, engineers thrive on building great technology together independent of any kind of corporate boundaries. Commercially, people develop relationships that are complicated today. And we have a great working relationship. We run a lot of our cloud customers on Amazon. But again, there's areas where we're both invested in Kubernetes. Ours is OpenShift. There's is EKS. So customers have a choice in that context. Yeah, so in that context, there are some in the open source community who view cloud as possibly a bit of a villain. In certain things, we've seen some dynamics around some particular providers around the database space. I won't name particular players, but we've seen some competitive moves in that space. So do you see cloud as, is it the villain, or is it an enabler of open source technologies? Well, it's definitely an enabler. Now there's a complicated scenario in this, like is it a villain? Which is, how do we create sustainable communities? And in the context where a technology is developed largely by one vendor and it's monetized largely by another vendor, that's not going to be a very sustainable model. So we just have to focus on how are we building technology together and building it in a sustainable way? And part of that is making the contributions back into the community to help the projects themselves grow and thrive. Part of it is having a great diversity of contributors into the project and recognizing that business models change and the world evolves. Yeah, that does introduce an element of risk. It's been around for a while. At Enterprise, they're a little bit concerned about open source. Well, who's really behind this? Will this project or software still be here in six months? That seems to be decreasing as the commercial support to particular open source projects and initiatives come to bear. And we see the rise of foundations and so on that try to give a little bit of an underpinning to some of these projects, particularly ones that are critical for the support of enterprise technologies. Do you see enterprises maturing in their view of open source? Do they see it as, no, we understand that this is definitely a sustainable technology whereas this other one's like, yeah, that one's not quite there yet? Or do they still need a lot of assistance in making that kind of decision? I've been at it for a couple of decades. So in the beginning, there was a lot of evangelism that this is safe. It's consumable by the enterprise. It's not some kind of crazy idea to bring open source. You're not going to lose your intellectual property or things like that. Those days, I mean, I'm sure you can find an exception, but those days are largely over in the sense that open source has gone mainstream. So I would say open source is one. Most large enterprises have an open source strategy. They consider open sources critical to not only how they source software from vendors, but also how they build their own applications. So the world has really, really evolved. And now it's really a question of where are you partnering with vendors to build infrastructure that's critical to your business but not your differentiator and where are you leveraging open source internally for you to differentiate your business? And I think that's a more sophisticated view. It's not the safety question. It's not, is it legally, you're bringing legal concerns into the picture. It's really a much different conversation. And people in the enterprise are looking, how can we contribute to these projects? So it's really, it's pretty exciting actually. So what do you think it is in the maturation process then? Is it in the adolescent years? Is it growing into young adulthood? You've been at it for a long time and it's more acceptable. But where are we, you think, in that arc, in terms of adapting or adopting, if you will, that philosophy? It probably depends on where you are and the layer, the stack. And so the lower you get into the infrastructure, the more commonplace it is. The closer you get to differentiated value and something that's really unique, there's less reason to even build those applications as open source if it's only you consuming it. You're the one, right? Pretty broad spectrum there. I think that in general, we're in some level of adulthood. It's a very mature world in the open source communities. And what's interesting today is how we change business models around deploying and consuming open source technologies. And then a next generation of technology will be very data-centric. Data drives a whole set of questions. There's policy and governance around data placement. There's model training and model exchanging. And where models come from data, are the models open source? Is the data shareable? You know, it sets a whole new wave of questions that I think in that context, it's much earlier. So that's our next interview, by the way, with Chris. Next time down the road. Thanks for the time. As always, really good to see you. And I know you're awfully busy this week, so we really do appreciate you carving out a little slice of time for us here in the queue. I always enjoy it, glad to do it. Thanks for us. Chris Wright of Red Hat CTO, back with Justin and John, live on theCUBE here at AWS ReInvent 2019.


This paper examined a competence-based assessment for master's students in clinical research and evaluated it after four years of implementation. The assessment was found to have improved student satisfaction without reducing academic rigor. The authors concluded that further research is needed to develop a scholarly literature on effective methods of assessment. This article was authored by Colleen Amealski, Marie K. Norman and Wiswa N'Kapoor.


This is TFNN, the Tiger Financial News Network Update. Good morning everyone, Basel Chapman here on this Tuesday, the 12th of September, for the 10am Tiger Financial News Network Market Update, the Dow is down 60, at 34,604. Remember, we're talking about this, we have inside track repellent zone, plus the arch formation that can go to a lowercase h and then a lowercase m, sideways consolidation unfolding, that's what we've got. The nine-period moving average is still negative, so the Dow is still in a cell mode in the daily chart. The S&P had an attempt yesterday to rally and then closed quite nicely over the nine-period moving average, and the nine is positive over the 14. The S&P is down 10 and 44.77, but it is still stuck in a sideways range, the QQQ, same kind of thing, is down $3.75 or $3.76. Underneath this inside track repellent zone and that falling ax formation, the IWM, the Russell 2000 small caps, yep, there again, stuck at that 200-period moving average like a magnet, just can't get away from that line. Gold, let's see what gold is doing, had a lousy day yesterday and then tried to rally, but today is ugly, it's down 16 at 1931, and that's really because the dollar, as I said before, that 914 crossover is still so positive that there's still internal strength, it's up 30 ticks at 104.84 TLT, that's the bonds, our bonds are down, oh, they're up 4 ticks at 93.72, that means yields are just kind of stuck, but those yields are still in the higher range and that's really warring the market together with crude oil, which is having a strong day today, up $1.39 at 88.70. This is getting closer and closer to that left side, how in 2022 we hit the continuous contract, we hit the 94s, I don't know if we're going there now, that would be my target over the next two months or so. Well, we're looking at it holding very nicely right here, that also is putting some pressure on the market, so with that said, in my show coming up, the Tiger technicians out, there are a lot of patterns that I'm looking at, I'll discuss them, I'll go through them, these are the things that I use for my subscribers to my opening call and we'll look at them in closer detail. Be back in a moment, hope you can stay, see you in a few.


Good morning and welcome to this week's edition of Encompass Live. I am your host Christa Burns here at the Nebraska Library Commission. Encompass Live is Library Commission's weekly online event or online webinar that we do. We do these every Wednesday morning at 10 a.m. Central Time live, and they are recorded. So if you have any that you can't attend live, you can always listen to our recordings. We've got two years worth now of Encompass Live that we've been doing this. So you have lots of options out there. We do various types of topics of here, presentations, interviews, book reviews, little mini-training sessions, basically anything that we think may be of interest to Nebraska librarians. And we have commission staff that do presentations, but we also have guest speakers as we have today. So today we actually have Marina Guy from the National Network Libraries of Medicine who's going to talk to us about emergency preparedness in libraries, which with all of the blizzards and floods and things that have been happening the last few weeks, probably a good time to talk about it. Most people will say there's no good time to talk about it, but yes, there's always a good time to talk about it. So thanks for having me, Christa. I always enjoy giving these presentations because I think we can get to audiences that we may not always be able to get to. This is a similar presentation to one that I did at the Nebraska Library Association, Nebraska Educational Media Association conference for Nebraska last fall. But it is a pertinent topic all the time. We need to be prepared. And it's not always a topic that people want to be talking about. But I do represent the National Network Libraries of Medicine, which is the outreach arm of the National Library of Medicine. I am the Nebraska and education coordinator for then our 6-8 region as well. And my contact information is here. Later on in the presentation I'm going to show you where you can get to this PowerPoint. And as Christa mentioned, there'll be this recorded version. We'll have a link to PowerPoint there as well, so you'll have it one place if you want to go to both the recording of this and the PowerPoint. I'm just going to wave. I just want to make sure I'm working here on the camera. So that's great. All right, well, let's go ahead and get started. And if you have questions, we'll allow some time at the end for that as well. So please keep note of that. And one other thing, we do have a chat box there. And if you would, please put your zip code in the chat box. I realize most of you may have preregistered for this. But my reporting requires that I have a zip code. And so this is an easy way for us to get it. If you would, please go ahead and do that now. And I'll mention this one more time in the presentation. Just in the box that says questions, open that up and type in your zip code and our GoToWebinar system will collect all that. And then we'll just give that in for the zip code information. Great. Marty, for the recording purposes. Okay. They're coming in. Okay, super. Good. All right. Well, let's see if it's not working. Oops. Try. There we go. Spacebar. Okay. Well, here are the things that we're going to be talking about. And I talk fast, and we've got a lot of information. But I'm always giving you the information of where you can locate this to look at it further. I'll be talking about the National Network Libraries and Medicine 10 Step Program, being prepared at home and in the library, what kinds of consumer resources you can direct people to, and what specifically can you do and get started on even today? So first, let me talk about the National Network Libraries and Medicine Emergency Preparedness and Response Toolkit. This is a web page that's been set up over the last couple of years. And we have this 10 Step Program where you see the little red arrow pointing to this at the top of the page. I'm going to be talking about that more because one of the things, if I only have one thing that you can take away from this presentation, it's a little sheet, it's a pocket response card sheet that you can locate by going to where that red arrow is. And I'm going to talk about this a little bit more in the presentation. But this is going to be a valuable resource, and it's one place where you can keep a whole lot of information that you can have handy at your fingertips anytime. This is a very robust website. We've got plenty of examples. We have stories of when people have talked about when they've had disasters in their libraries. There are toolkits down at the lower left-hand corner. You can even check on where there are particular problems today where there may have been emergencies. So as I said, very robust and worth some time in your exploration. So we're going to jump right into the 10 Steps. The first one obviously is to assess your risks. And obviously when we've got a lighthouse there, people have assessed their risks. And that's certainly what you need to be doing too. A lot of this is going to depend upon your geographical location. So let's look first at kind of the way we talk about some of these things. So you may have natural kinds of disasters. This is like a little score sheet that you can find from our website. There are natural kinds of disasters. I think those are the ones that probably come to mind, first of all. So you have a tornado or an earthquake or a hurricane. Those all fall under that heading. So this little score sheet is going to help you assess how much risk you have in your community and what you should be doing to plan for it. You may have unintentional risk. Something happens like a train derails and something spills into the community. That could be something. You can have intentional risk. That might be a terrorism kind of attack or something where someone does something in your community which puts people at risk. Or a public health emergency. So for example, a pandemic where many people are becoming ill at the same time. So these are all kinds of activities that actually impact libraries probably more than you think. And I think we learned a lot when Katrina happened because we really began to understand how libraries can become real hubs for people in emergencies and what kinds of things libraries need to do to prepare for that. So this presentation is really twofold. It's really partly about protecting your own resources in the library but also becoming a resource in your community. Which again, I can't emphasize enough, the more you can prove to yourself or to your community how valuable you are as a library, that's only going to work to your benefit because then you get more funding, you get more attention, you are really advocating for your library. So this is a win-win. Okay, well let's talk a little bit about these. Here are natural disasters. Tornadoes may be the first thing that come to my mind because I live in Nebraska. Not on an ocean or whatever. So obviously we are aware of these kinds of things and there is evidence. So if you need to tell your city planners why you need to be working on emergency planning or why you need to be part of the emergency planning team in your community you can point to these kinds of resources. So the first one there, I think that one was about earthquakes if I'm not mistaken and on the lower right-hand corner we have tornadoes and so you can kind of see and again I'm using Nebraska as my example but the really dark colors are the places where tornadoes are more likely to happen and you're going to give yourself X number of points for which part of the state that you're located in then you can see a lighter area and then kind of a yellow area which really doesn't get much in the way of tornadoes. But again this just helps explain information to other people that we need to be concerned about this and we need to be prepared for it. And if you're within a range of a river, so for example, gosh it's just really interesting to watch some of the flooding that's going on now. I was watching the things in Australia long ago but whole communities can be cut off. This one is also saying if you're close to the railroad track that also is going to have some bearing on things. So again, things to keep in mind. Intentional disasters here we're showing a crop duster. Warns that anthrax scores released by a crop duster could kill more Americans than died in World War II. You know, it's kind of scary to read those sort of statistics but again unless we kind of think about them we're not going to be able to prepare for them. Also cities have their own particular rating if you will. It's more dangerous if you live around particular cities. You can see Omaha and Lincoln have their areas of contention. I'm sure Omaha because of the Air Force Base. Yeah, exactly. So I think we'll be slightly safer here because the Air Force Base is up there. Well, we'd like to think so, yeah. So perhaps we will. They didn't really target these. I mean, they didn't really say how much one city is versus another but obviously an area of concern. Nuclear power plants, that's another whole thing. Again, you can see that we do have a couple here in Nebraska. So on that sheet you'd give yourself 10 points if you were within 20 miles of a nuclear power plant. Actually, I think it'd be more miles than that quite honestly but something to start the ball rolling anyway. Fire and water damage. You know, we can think of a fire in a library but honestly the real damage comes from water. So here an arsonist at the Los Angeles Public Library and obviously this was quite a few years ago but many things were destroyed by the fire but 600,000 volumes were damaged by water. So then again you have to think about how do you recover from that? What sort of vendors do you need to be working with? How do you protect them from that? So the drying in this case costs $2 million. Well, obviously that was a pretty big event but something to be thinking about. So what's your score? So what you should be doing is looking at what your score is and how vulnerable you may be to things. So that's assessing risk. So now what about protecting yourself, your staff, your patrons? Well, here's a good example of a tornado that happened.  You need to make sure that your people have an evacuation plan so that they can harbor safely in the event of our tornado. Here's a really interesting one that happened just in 2009. The Cologne Archives building in Cologne, Germany, collapsed in about three minutes. So I'm thinking three minutes. Could I get out of my library in three minutes? I think it might be a challenge. You think about three minutes, it seems like a short period of time but then if you time it, maybe it's not. That's right. That's why we have here, even in the library commission, we have fire drills. Time getting yourself out. Yeah, exactly. And are you going the shortest route without using an elevator obviously because those could very easily be out of commission and you wouldn't want to get stuck in one? Is this an earthquake or just collapsed out of the blue? No, just the building collapsed out of the blue. As I understand it, people started hearing kind of a creaking motion and then... Wow. Yeah, so it was a miracle. I think that no one was hurt. And what about a hazmat? Hazmat incident. This would be, for example, if you had chemicals in your community, do you have some place where you could go in your library that could function as a shelter in place location where you're not going to get fumes from something? And do you have the things to make this more safe for yourself? So for example, do you have duct tape? Do you have some kind of plastic sheeting that you can use for a door, a window, or a vent that go into those rooms? They're not difficult things to have and they're not even very expensive to have. And one idea that I have heard is that that you just buy a large garbage can and you start putting these kinds of supplies in that garbage can perhaps in your shelter in place. So if it's in your staff lounge, for example, then you can have the plastic sheeting, the duct tape. If you have a crank radio or flashlights or those sort of things, then you know where to go for that information and everyone on your staff should know where to go to. So does your staff know how to respond to a medical emergency? What if you have someone who looks like they're having a heart attack? Has your staff had CPR, for example, or do you have a defibrillator in your library? If you do, do people know how to use it? Or do they know the phone numbers to call if you need to get paramedics to the scene quickly? So those all should be things that should be reviewed again with your staff. And this should be done on a regular basis too, and I think we need to mention that. You know, you can do things once, but honestly, they need to be repeated many times, and you have revolving staff. So it's a good thing to put this into your schedule probably a couple times a year. So here are just an example of a few things that you might ask your staff. What do they do if a tornado warning is issued for the area? So you're not only concerned about your staff, but let's say you have patrons who are in the library at that time. Where do you take them? And is it a secure place that you can take them to? Security calls to say that a violent person is in your vicinity. A patron rushes to the desk to report that somebody's having a heart attack. Well, we sort of talked about that. Sheltering in place or water in the floor in the basement. That may not seem like a big deal, but maybe you have electrical things down there too. A construction worker says that you have that three minutes to evacuate the library. Or it's Saturday afternoon and water is pouring in from the ceiling onto your reference books. I think that's a phone call nobody would like to have. So maybe you test them first by, gee, what's your first response to this, and then say, and here's what you really need to be doing. So how do you create procedures to ensure the continuation of your core services? And you need to identify those core services. So you might think about interlibrary loan. Is that a big deal for you? For public libraries, it may be less important than it is for hospital libraries, for example. Asking a librarian, what about your web page? Who's going to update that with information? Is there information for proxies, troubleshooting, access to print resources? Is there study space? Again, things to think about. There's a little brochure available off of our National Network Libraries of Medicine website, and it's called the Service Continuity Strategy. So again, this is a place where you can go to begin to think about some of the things you need to be considering. I think the part over here on the right that says communication is everything. I think that is absolutely essential. You have got to prepare for that, not only in terms of notification, but even in terms of how you deal with the press. So I like that idea. So create procedures to ensure access to core materials. So you might be also aware of this. The National Library of Medicine has actually been working with vendors, because journals are so important to those of us who are in medical libraries. That certain vendors now have made an agreement with the National Library of Medicine that if there is a geographic emergency in an area, they will actually give free access on their databases to people who are affected by that emergency, which I think has been a tremendous initiative. That way we know if people do have Internet access, at least they can get to these kinds of resources quickly. That's awesome. It is awesome. I think that was really a terrific thing for the National Library of Medicine to have initiated. The flip side of that is just to have a cart full of books that you think are going to be important. Obviously, again, these are from a medical library, but you probably have some medical resources that might be valuable if you had to take them out to a particular site if necessary. And what about developing a mutual aid agreement with another library or a network? Maybe you live in a small community. You don't have much staff. And actually any library should set this up with another library. It's just like having a buddy system so that if one is out of commission, the other one can sort of pull the weight for a while until the first one gets back up to speed. You can take it to a legal status where you sign something. This is called a mutual aid agreement. Again, we have examples of that on our website. But I think this is a terrific way to ensure that you are working with someone else who knows libraries because you don't want someone to get in there who really doesn't know what's going on. But someone who's worked with libraries and alternatively have to work with the Nebraska Library Commission, you're going to have the same kind of knowledge base. Plan for the rescue recovery of your highly valued materials. Now again, this might be important if you have some things that are very old or that you need to protect. How have you tried to ensure that those things will stay protected? Are they in a glass case? Can you take something out of there? Can you wrap it in some of this protective, looks like plastic sheeting that has zippers on it that's going to protect it if there's water possibilities of damage? And what about developing your communication plan? As I said, I think this one should be first and foremost. So how do you notify your plan for your public and your staff? What are you doing for your library website because that is going to be the public face for people as long as they have internet access? What about social networking sites if you have Facebook and Twitter? How can you use those for emergency planning? And further, talking to the media. Because I do think this is one thing that librarians don't do a lot of. They may not necessarily be prepared to do that. But if you wrote out maybe some scenarios beforehand and sort of practiced with that or had sort of a shell available so that it gives you some talking points to begin with, it's going to work to your favor. Note how to obtain outside assistance. And for this, whoops, when I say outside of assistance this also has to do with other entities in your community and I'm going to talk a little bit about more about this because in Nebraska we have a couple of different things. Medical response teams and these are set up regionally so you can obtain outside assistance from them as well and I'm going to show you where to get more information on that. And this is that little sheet that I was talking about. We have a comment here actually that may be useful to some people. Erin Mockler who's from Omaha Public Library says that they're working on a live guide to provide information to the public regarding emergency services in the area. So I think that's a great way to do their research and resources for you to the library but they're doing it for that purpose. That's great and maybe we'll have some things you can add to that today. Very good. All right, well this is the proper plan, this pocket response unit and here I know you can't see this very well but here are some of the things that are included on this. So you would have your institutional contacts which would be your director and the people who work in your library. You have, perhaps you may have a disaster team that's for your library and bigger libraries this might be more common. You would have your communication plans. So for example how are you going to get in touch with people? Do you have their information? And make sure that you are including maybe not just their work number and their home number but a cell phone number as well. If there's email or if you have a Twitter account that you can feed out information to several people that's a good thing to include here too. What is your service continuity plan? So what kinds of online resources are you really going to target to keep up? What sort of online chat might you have available? Because people could do that out of their homes in Ferry. The library's webpage we talked about what kind of print collection do you want to have available? Who's on your service continuity team? Some of the other things that you may not necessarily think about. What do you necessarily want to keep for your collection? Those kinds of things that you want to protect. We sort of talked about that. But I think your vendor list and I hadn't really even thought about this but if you had several different databases that you really wanted to target to keep up who do you need to contact as your vendors? You need to let them know that you're maybe out of service or that you need some additional assistance. A floor plan and you know again what the floor plan of your library is but if you had to tell a fireman to go into the such and such room and turn off such and such if you had a floor plan available then it's going to be a lot easier for you to do that. And where else to get help? And again this includes our information as well as whatever else you may choose to put down there including salvage companies. So if you had a fire and water damage that you could call those people immediately because honestly working on those things as quickly as you can is going to be one of the more important things. So again if you only take one thing away from this presentation I would urge you and your library staff to fill this out today. It doesn't take much and again the advantage of this is it's just one sheet of paper it can fold into a little piece like this that can sit in your wallet. So that's the whole thing is that you have it with you at all times or you at least have a copy at work, a copy at home. Right, but at least if you have it this way you've got it with you and you don't have to be fussing around with where did I put that list? Okay now being prepared at home and this is kind of the other side of things Red Cross obviously provides some resources you get a kit, make a plan, be informed there are actually several places where you can go for information so the Red Cross provides information. The National Fire Protection Association provides information. Ready.gov provides it, FEMA provides it. What I like about FEMA they've included one for how to prepare for your animals. So I being an animal person think that's a good thing to consider because you might not have. Just so you know all these URLs that are on here will be posted when we put the recording up we put them on to our delicious account and everything with all those links we have there so you don't have to try and scribble them down or anything now. That's great and they're also on the PowerPoint and I'll give you the address for that too. Oh we have something, there we go. Okay so some of the things that you'll want to think about are water, food, those seem pretty obvious. We talked about a hand crank radio, something with a tone alert. Those tone alert things on weather depend on the settings that you have for them they can become annoying. So I think you have to decide whether you want to get a notice on your radio that goes off at 3 o'clock in the morning regardless you know that it's going to rain 5 inches or something. Flashlight, extra batteries, first aid kit, a whistle, I think that's a good one, dust mask, towelettes.   Can openers for foods, local maps, sleeping bags or blankets, changes of clothing, chlorine bleach and that's not just to use as a disinfectant but you might need to use it in water. Fire extinguisher, more stuff might include matches, Nes kits, paper and pencil, books, games, puzzles, it's really just keeping children entertained. Prescription medications and glasses, even formula and diapers, pet food, extra water, family documents. Again, I think this is another good idea. You can easily make copies of your insurance policies, IT, bank account records and just keep them in one waterproof portable container. Most of that stuff doesn't change much over time so if you just kind of made it a plan to review it every January or something, you would be in great shape so you'd have it available. Cash change. And just to word about cash, people think having cash on hand is important but don't have it in $100 bills. Have it in small bills because it's more likely that you're going to need to give a dollar here or $10 here or something, not $100 bills. Emergency reference material. Kids know some of these things I hope where your tornado room is, your shutoffs. If you have an egress like a basement, how do you get out of it if it's not through a door? Do you have a window that you can get out of? Gathering place. Have you all agreed to meet at the big oak tree across the street or where will you meet for your family? Family contacts for other people. So not necessarily your immediate family, but someone else. First aid, CPR, cough, etiquette, washing hands, work contact numbers. The paperwork. These are the things that you'd want to have in your little pouch. Pandemic preparedness. Now we've gotten warnings over this over the last couple of years and fortunately it hasn't really turned out to be as dangerous as we thought it would be. But how do you care for the ill at home? What do you do for kids who are away from college? Are you stockpiling more than three days of food? And then here are loads of consumer resources. You may have a lot of typing to do. But there's public health. As we said, Red Cross, Boy Scouts have great things. The Citizen Corps, Volunteers and Police Service, Centers for Disease Control. Obviously that's part of the government as am I and we're all part of the National Institutes of Health FEMA. That's really their job to be thinking about that. Medline Plus, which most of you may know is probably one of the primary sites that I normally promote because it has information on all kinds of things and also on disaster preparation. So what about training? What if you want to attend some additional training? Well, I will tell you in our region, our six state region for the National Network Libraries and Medicine, we have been offering classes and we've done them like every other month for several months. So right now we're on steps seven and eight of what we just talked about. So looking at your course services and looking at your access plan. So you can check our schedule, which is located at the URL down here, which are EP classes. Or at the top here, what's underlined is signing up for this class. It's on January 12th. If you're concerned about having steps one through six, we also have those webinars posted on our website. Oh, great. So you can actually get that at that schedule area there, too. And here's what Medline Plus looks like. As I said, Medline Plus is your government website for consumer health resources. And we do have an area just for disaster preparedness and recovery, which has, again, loads of resources. ToxMap also comes from the National Library of Medicine. And it actually has two components to it. One is superfund sites or what we call lead sites. This particular one is for toxic release inventory. So I printed out the toxic release inventory for the state of Nebraska here. And each place that you see a little marking there is an event that has occurred at some place in time. And over there on the right-hand side, you'll see those numbers corresponding to those. And what that does then, you can go in there for more information and see, oh, what was released or what might be the toxic thing that I might need to be worried about. Now, if it's really big, obviously those things are going to be in the news. But you may find things here in your communities that you might not have been aware of, which might add to your risk assessment. There's lots of little things that you just don't get... Absolutely. A lot depends on media. I also want to mention these. The National Network Libraries of Medicine in our region, the Midcontinental Region, offers free access to NetLibraries. So if you go to this URL through our web page, we have three books that are specifically for disaster recovery and disaster recovery planning. To get to this, as I said, you just go to our URL. There is no user or password required. And you can look at these eBooks. They are not downloadable, so you'd have to look through them page by page or you can go to a particular chapter and look at them. But again, it gives you an idea of the kinds of things you need to be planning for with your operations and facilities. And we would love for you to use these. I think these are kind of underutilized and I think they're a great resource. Our collection there actually includes about a hundred books on technical and management topics for libraries, so we hope that you'll use them. They're always available. And this is where I wanted to mention something that's recently been done. Shavon Champ Blackwell, who is also located in Nebraska at Creighton, has put out this Nebraska response handout. So if you would, you can click on that, or actually you can go to this URL that I have here at the beginning. And what this is going to do is provide a list of agencies in Nebraska for libraries to work with in developing planning and resource... planning and response resources. And what I have printed out here, I believe is a map. You can't see the outline of Nebraska here very well. But these are libraries in Nebraska. So if you think about all the places that are potential places to be hubs in the event of an emergency, you can count yourself among them. And it looks like a lot, but honestly, I'm not sure how many of these libraries are prepared for emergencies. So if you're one of those libraries, we will hope that you will begin to work with the other emergency entities in your community and become one of those hubs. So what specifically can you do where you can expand your medical and public library partnerships?  And vice versa. Because we really think those alliances that come out of people working together are the best kinds of partnerships. So maybe they have resources that would be particularly useful in the event of an emergency. Maybe one has a better facility or a more accessible facility. Or maybe you could just kind of agree to be partners to back each other up in the event of emergencies. You can work with first responders. Part of that comes off that list that I just mentioned to you. But you might also contact your fire department and your police department, for example. You can provide access to emergency management information resources. And I think we've given you a number of those today. Involve the library in community planning. I often think that city planners just forget the library. They just don't think of it as being something that can be particularly useful. And you have to if you're in a public librarian you have to drive home that point. That's your responsibility. Like what Omaha Public Library is doing with the resources list. You want to have a place at the table so it's however you can make yourself valuable in doing that. And libraries can encourage people to take steps to prepare for emergencies. Well, then you're going to say, how can I do that? Well, you can organize community day events. And we have given you here 13 different ideas of what you might do. Oddly enough, you could almost do one of those every month if you wanted to. So you could do first aid planning. You could have someone come in and do CPR training. Probably someone in your public health department or a Red Cross might be willing to do that for you. Medline Plus demonstrations. I'm raising my hand here because I'm happy whenever to do a webinar. I can't always come to your libraries but I can do a webinar as long as you have a computer with internet access and projector where people could see it in a class. Or you can just go and do a tutorial which is available from Medline Plus. It may take about 10 minutes but give people a lot more information that they've had before. There are disaster preparedness pathfinders and by that I mean specific information with regard to disaster preparedness and journal articles that librarians have prepared. There's even a disaster preparedness list servant. I didn't include that here but if anybody's interested in that let me know and I'll give you that information. You could do team building exercises, disaster preparedness for pets, family communication plans so for example do your children all have a cell phone or if they don't have a cell phone can you get in touch with their school again what kind of communication do you have in place. City maps you may not think that that's very important but honestly if you're not very familiar with your city it might be very important. Disaster kit giveaways may include things like duct tape and plastic sheeting. Disaster plan consultations survivor storytelling you can get to some of those as I said from our website they're not recorded but they are written out. Kids books, reading puppy shows disaster scenarios relevant videos and movies so probably not the Hollywood version maybe a little way more disaster than they usually is but you never know much to them but again those are things you can think about so this is our website as I mentioned our national network libraries of medicine so that's NNLM.gov and EP is for emergency preparedness and who better to leave you some words with by failing to prepare we are preparing to fail. I thought I found that so I think afterwards regardless so with that I will open it up for questions or if we had any comments along the way that I failed to address please speak now see if we have anything so does anybody have any questions and again if you want to get to our regional website where you'll find these Nebraska resources that's actually if you look at this same URL here it's nnlm.gov slash m-c-r and that's where we have our resources for educational and training opportunities that's where we've archived these prior trainings on emergency preparedness and where you can find information specific to our states we do a question about where the PowerPoint slides will be they are located on that website let me repeat that for you and maybe Krista you can put it in the chat box too it's it's nnlm.gov slash m-c-r so that will take you to the front page of our midcontinental region and if you go to education and training opportunities which is a tab at the top of the page and then look under online training this will be under the online training page so you'll see the PowerPoint that I've given to you here it's been posted and the paper is under the emergency planning part of our page and when we post the recording of this session all of you who are attending will be sent an email letting you know the recording is available and the link to the PowerPoint will be there as well great when you are given that which be either later today or sometime tomorrow when we have all this process through we have another question here oh this has given me so much information I'm at public libraries in the very beginnings of emergency preparedness I'm wondering where is the best or at least overwhelming so to speak place to start wow honestly overwhelming actually it is a little bit like oh my god I'm panicking I need to go home right now and make sure we have all those things in my house I would say first if you're a library that's planning start with this if you're a person that's planning for your house I would start by printing off one of the lists for I think the Red Cross is a really good place to start or FEMA either one of those but they have a basic list of kinds of things that you want to prepare for and honestly if you just start by thinking of food and water and maybe you do that and you know give yourself a little project plan if you will so you do that in January maybe in February you think about having a radio with batteries or getting a crank radio maybe in March you have you make sure that you have blankets or sleeping bags for people in your family those would be home kinds of things that you would do but the same thing is true for planning for your library if you feel a little overwhelmed by this again why don't you put it on a monthly basis maybe as part of the staff meeting so my first step would be to do this little pocket response unit this doesn't take a lot of effort but would at least get you started and you can always add to it it's not like this is laid in stone by any means and then maybe go back to some of those earlier recordings for the steps and maybe you take one step each month for a year you would be surprised at what you can do I am a huge advocate of eating an elephant a bite at a time you can't do it all in one swoop but if you break into smaller steps you can certainly accomplish what it is that you want to accomplish our commission staff said you did such a wonderful job that we have no questions thanks for that nice presentation oh I always love getting to get on like that so that's super thank you so much I really appreciate the opportunity to share this information and again my contact information was on the beginning of the PowerPoint but certainly you can get to it through the Nebraska Library Commission or by going to our website nmlm.gov slash mcr it's Marty McGee any other questions anybody has right now for us about this as I said the PowerPoint and the recording will be posted up so you may be able to get more information then am I watching it again and of course if you do think of questions later absolutely email whatever it doesn't look like anything urgent is coming in at the moment well thank you all for attending I appreciate as I said the opportunity and I hope you go forth and prepare thanks for a quick overview overwhelming as it is yes but that's what it is it's a nice overview a good start go back and start working on it like you said piece by piece that is definitely good so thank you very much thanks very much Marty for coming and talking about this and next week we hope you'll join us our session for Encompass Live will be about very specific to Nebraska actually about internships internship grant program the library commission has currently running cultivating Nebraska librarians 2.0 building 21st century skills grant program and we're going to have some participating libraries who have had interns come in to be at this grant talk about it and see how you can get involved in it for future ones so hopefully you'll join us next week next week's Encompass Live so thank you very much and I just want to do a last check and see if any urgent questions and if you didn't put your zip code in yes oh yeah we did hear something that came in late yeah if you did for the National Libraries and Medicine you guys they keep statistics based on people who attended their sessions just based on zip code as far as where people are so if you could if you haven't already if you could type into the question section just whatever your zip code is we'll be just passing that information on so that they can have their statistics based on that so uncle Sam wants to know he wants to know where you are that's also go ahead and take that in if you haven't already just type your zip code into the question section we'll leave it open so that people have time to do that that sounds very good so all right so if there's nothing else then I think I think that's it this morning thank you very much for attending and we will see you next time thanks bye bye now


So you may have seen little rocks on the side of the road painted with nice messages or a nice picture on it. And I think people are doing this just because it's just a nice little thing you can do because we know everyone's been isolating. So it's something you can do with the kids and just spread a little positivity out there by painting a nice rock. So these kindness rocks just have a nice little message on it or something just to cheer people up and over time the sun and the rain and the wind will wash off the paint that's on these rocks. So that's why people have been coating them with art resin and we noticed that lots of people were doing that and asking us questions about it. So we thought we'd show you how to do that. Make sure that you're doing this on a non-stick surface. We use sheets of plastic or garbage bags or a silicone mat. So to apply art resin there's two main methods you can do. The first one is to use these little foam brushes you can just get from the dollar store. And what you want to do is you're going to be doing this in two sessions. The first time either the top or the bottom just apply with the brush all around the one side getting the sides but not too thick that it's going to drip down onto the other side. Once that cures flip it over paint the other side and it will be a finished perfect rock. The second method is a bit messier and still requires two steps. Just coat your entire rock in art resin. I just like to rub it on with gloved hands. The thing about this method is on the bottom of the rock some of the resin is going to pool and create a little ridge around. Once the resin is cured the next day you can just take an exacto knife and cut off that little ring around there.  The other way that you do it the art resin is going to just make that rock stand out a bit more by saturating the colors and it'll make the artwork underneath the beautiful message of kindness that you put on there just last a lot longer than if you didn't put the art resin on there. So this is a great idea I think it shows that artists can just do little things and it actually does make someone's day to find a nice little message like that. So thank you for thinking about others and I'm not going to say keep on rocking.


Hey everybody, welcome it's Hari Swaminathan from optiontiger.com and today is Wednesday, August 23rd. So I wanted to do a quick market update because seeing some kind of a pattern on the S&P and so it's worth looking at it a little more closely and if you recall about two updates ago I said that this 2500 might be a pretty good resistance point and of course this is the ES let's take a look at the SPX it didn't quite get there but you can see of course you know markets never will be like perfect to the dot but this is pretty close to 490 I would have expected it to go may perhaps a little bit higher about 3 to 5 points higher but this is good enough because this you can see it was a bar that was rejected very strongly from its top and ended more towards the bottom but we have to go back to the ES because of volume information and so here the volume was high that was this bar I'm sorry here you can see this one there was no seemed like there was no you know any upside interest anymore as far as the volume but of course some of this you can only know by hindsight here it got rejected not on very high volume but then you have now if we've started seeing some very big range bars okay so basically what's that telling us is and really the study that will tell you that properly is the ATR average true range and if we put that and take out money flow and apply okay see you can see that the average true range has started increasing so basically what this is saying is the average true range is now 17 points on the ES which is which would be the same as the SMP so it's about 17 points on a daily basis so which is pretty high you know and so that's the kind of movement we are seeing in the SMP and so what kind of trades would be good for that is obviously a strangle a straddle that you know big moves on any given day and the only thing you have to watch out for is the wicks level because if you buy it at a lower wicks and then it goes higher you know obviously that's going to be good for us so here we have the wicks at 12 yesterday it went up just a little bit now if we look at the options for the SMP and let's see how we can play this because it's a good opportunity when we have an average true range that's pretty high so if you see the two days the one that's expiring now this Friday is plus or minus 16 then that's only one standard deviation so here if we go out one more this would be next Monday and this would be Wednesday and this would be Friday I think or Thursday so you need to go out a little bit to but then you're going to pay higher option prices as well so let's go somewhere with seven days one week let's say this is like a one week trade and right now it's at 2450 of course the SMP futures are down today eight points so let's say it's at 2445 so in that case 10 points out would be 2435 and 10 points out over here would be yeah so totally your your strangle might cost us about 11 to 12 dollars okay so fairly expensive of course you can decide the number of contracts but just to see how that goes I'm going to put this straddle the strangle on I'm going to wait for the open because there's going to be quite a bit of movement so I don't know what the prices are but a strangle here might make sense and once it starts moving to one side we can try to get some premium theta decay from some of these earlier series here so the average two range I think is moving up and that's what we have to keep in mind and if we have a good day like two days ago we had a good day if you see the charts yeah this was a good day and so the wicks would have come down quite a bit here that's the time to go for the strangle all right so we missed that of course I missed it too because I was like tied up with the move and everything but here we are so you know even now I think it's not too bad let's see what the wicks level is after the market opens and the strangle might make sense thanks
