A useful idea for two-dimensional objects—tape and scissors—we can form a geometric figure by taping pieces together and cutting off parts we don't want. Three-dimensional objects are no different. For example, say we want to find the volume of the object formed by the region between y equals square root of x and y equals x is revolved around the x-axis. That gives us a figure like this, which is sort of a cup. Now if you were going to make a cup out of wood, what you would do is you'd start with a block of wood and get rid of the parts that you don't want. But this is calculus, so instead we'll start with a larger piece and get rid of the parts we don't want. And one way we can do this is we can fill in the area between the region and the axis of rotation, revolve the new region around the x-axis, then remove the inside part which leaves the volume that we want. Now let's find that volume. The two curves intersect at 0, 0 and 1, 1. Now if we fill in the part between the region and the x-axis, then revolve around the x-axis. The volume of the solid produced from the whole region is revolved around the x-axis, is going to be, but we want to remove the inside. So we need to figure out what the volume of the inside figure is. So remember we filled in our region, but we will eventually remove this fill-in part. So let's figure out what that volume is. If we just consider the volume of the solid formed by revolving the fill-in part around the x-axis, that volume will be, and so the volume will be the whole figure minus the inside figure, and we can compute the value and find our volume.


It's my understanding that none of the injuries are critical. There are some that are considered to be serious injuries, and then the rest of them were more minor injuries where they're able to treat the children and release them to their parents.

You know, 1999-2000 was marked by, for the first time for ICANN to bring out new registrars. There used to be just one registrar, Network Solutions. I used to pay $100 a name and I had 3,500 names with them. And Network Solutions would, I mean, my postman knew Network Solutions really well because the way Network Solutions invoiced me was to send me every year one envelope for each domain name I had. So I received every year 3,500 envelopes from Network Solutions, which of course had $100 a pop. I mean, they could afford to send a thousand of those and not worry about it, right? But I remember going and registering, creating accounts with register.com and creating accounts with Domain Bank and there were 4 test-bed registrars, I don't remember whether the other 4 were, but that was a seminal moment because the moment was not about all of a sudden there was competition. The moment really was, there was actually choice for the first time and you're not stuck with just one place that does everything, right?


Amen. So you're going to keep your place in 2 Timothy chapter 4. We're not going to get there for a few minutes, but I might have you turn somewhere else, and you're going to go back to 2 Timothy chapter 4.  So the title of the sermon this evening is Santa Claus is Evil. All right. Really, Pastor, you're really going to preach a sermon. Santa Claus is Evil. That's really the title of the sermon. Yes, that's the title of my sermon. Let me first say when I start off here that I'm not mad at Santa Claus. I'm not upset at Santa Claus because Santa Claus is not real. So I'm sorry, kids. I'm sure all the kids in the church already knew that. We have the kids in this church that are the ones that are ruining it for all the other kids out there. They're out there at Home Depot probably telling everybody that Santa Claus is not real and you've got 10-year-olds crying on the ground that Santa Claus isn't real. But the point I'm getting at and the reason that I would preach a sermon like this, and I haven't preached a sermon like this really ever, I don't think. I think I've mentioned it before. The thing is though, it's not harmless. When I say Santa Claus, it's evil. What I'm talking about is he's obviously fake. It's not a real thing. I'm not upset. You can't be upset at the Easter Bunny. You can't be upset at Santa Claus. I'm talking about the idea of Santa Claus. I'm talking about the idea of these things. This is why I always find it interesting when you see these hardcore atheists like Richard Dawkins and all these people that they're literally angry at God. I'm like, what in the world? You don't believe in God. How can you be angry at someone that you don't even think exists? It's odd. It's weird. I'm not upset. I'm joking when I said Santa Claus is evil. The idea of Santa Claus though is evil. I want to show you that this evening. Just like everything else that is false today, there is a subtle agenda to the Santa Claus fairy tale or whatever you want to call it. I guess the Bible would call it a fable. So you say, are you really preaching a sermon against Santa Claus and the answer is yes. And I want to show you three reasons tonight why it's not something that's not serious. It's something that we should all take serious and it's something that we should be able to defend when people come after us and say, oh, you don't have your kids open Santa gifts or you don't perpetuate that lie to your children. So I'm gonna give you three points tonight that show you from the Bible how it is not an unserious thing. That's actually the devil's agenda by the way is to get you to take things that are serious, that make things that are serious to subtly make them not serious. As a matter of fact, one of the guys said in the promotional video for the church, I think it was Brother Alex, but he just said it beautifully where he said, you know what the Bible does is it makes sin pop up to you. It makes sin exceedingly sinful, the Bible would say to you. Whereas what Satan is trying to do is make sin less visible to you.  He's what? He's subtle, the Bible says. Meaning he's sneaky, he's silent, he's not upfront. That's why, you know, false religions many times are subtle. They're lies, but they're subtle about it. Why don't you just come out and say that you think that I can have my own planet one day Mormons?  Why don't you come out and say that? But that's not what they say. They say it subtly. We believe the Bible. We believe exactly what you believe. Why? Because they're perpetuating a lie. And subtlety is Satan's gain. And Santa is no different. So I'm gonna give you three reasons tonight. Turn to Ephesians chapter four. Keep your place in 2 Timothy chapter four.  They're children. That's the first point right there is the first reason Santa Claus, the idea of Santa Claus is evil is it targets kids. It targets children. Turn to Ephesians chapter four. So the average age in the US, this may surprise you, especially the parents in the room, this is gonna surprise you. The average age in the US where children stop believing in Santa Claus is right between, it's about eight and a half years old. Between eight and nine years old, by 10, by age 10, think of that. Look at the small children in this room. By age 10, 20% of kids still believe in Santa Claus in the United States today. Now just, we talked about this on Sunday, but compare this to salvation. What are the general age ranges where, you know, children will get saved if they're sitting in a Bible preaching church and they're out soul winning with their parents? The age ranges where kids will get saved are way before 10. It's five, six, seven, eight years old. These kids will get saved.  You could literally have a saved child out there that still believes in Santa Claus.  But look at Ephesians chapter four and look at verse number 14. The Bible says this, it says that we henceforth need no more children tossed to and fro and carried about with every wind of doctrine by the slight of men and cunning craftiness whereby they lie in wait to deceive. But speaking the truth and love may grow up into him in all things which is the head even Christ. So just to break this down for a second, Paul, he's talking to adults here. Okay, he's not talking to children here, but he's saying don't be like children who are what, who are easily deceived, who are tossed to and fro pointing out that children are easily deceived by what, by the slight of men. So men will lie to you and it's the children. Paul is using the example of a child, the picture of a child to say you as an adult as church members, as brothers and sisters in Christ at the church in Ephesus, at this church everywhere, he's like you shouldn't be tossed around like a child.  The Bible teaches all the time, I'll just read for you Proverbs 22, verse number six where the Bible says train up a child in the way he should go and when he is old he will not depart from it. What does that mean? Train up, that means they're not trained. They're not up. They need to be trained up. They need to be taught up. Now I don't know if you ever thought about this. I actually turned to Proverbs 22, six, you can look at the verse with me. But I don't know if you've ever thought about this, this way, but you know what? What if you applied that in the negative? You ever think about that? Train up a child in the way he should go and he will not depart from it. What if you have somebody that trained a child in the wrong way? Now obviously salvation, the Holy Spirit, any adult can get saved and follow the Holy Spirit and change in their life. But this is generally true of many people. If they were raised wrong, if they were raised the wrong way, they're not gonna depart from that. You could apply this to the negative as well, even though the Bible was really saying, look train them this way and then when they're old they won't depart from it. How can I raise my children to, you know this is the big question for the Christians today. When kids get 18 years old they stop going to church. They're not going to church anymore and kids are leaving Christianity and all this kind of stuff. Well they haven't been trained up in the way they should go. That's why. That's why they're in some happy, clappy church that doesn't preach any Bible, that tells them what they wanna hear. We'll get there in just a second, back in Second Timothy chapter four. Tells them what they wanna hear, not what they need to hear. He gets somebody that stands up behind the pulpit and gets to a verse and starts talking about some sins that he knows he's staring at in the church. He's like I don't wanna say that but you know what what's not said can also be a lie. If you sit there as a pastor, as a preacher, you get up and you preach day in, day out, week in, week out, 150 sermons a year and you never preach on something else. That's a man that's lying to you. That's a man that's not telling you the truth. So a child needs to be up, when, what? When they're young. The Bible here is implying that children are very impressionable, that children can be tossed to and fro. Look, so on the first point that it targets kids, parents look, you better get paranoid.  Why? Because they're impressionable. Because they can be tossed to and fro. What do we see today? What do we see all the perverted agendas today? Who are they targeting? The kids. Every single time. All the sickos and perverts and all that stuff is being pushed where? It's not being pushed on adults, it's being pushed on impressionable children. Why? Because it works. Because this is Satan's subtle plan. It's evil. And look, Santa is no different. The imperative of a trainer is that you have the trust of somebody that you are training. I mean look, the best trainer is somebody that everybody that he's training just completely trusts him. So why as a parent would you lie to them? Why as a parent would you tell them anything that is not true? If the truth is what you're after.  But that's what the Bible says. The second Timothy chapter four that people will want people that lie to them. People that want people that will tell them what they wanna hear, not what they need to hear. Look, and I'm talking about even about something small. And I'm gonna show you this evening that the idea of Santa Claus and teaching kids Santa Claus is not small. There's an agenda behind it to undo what the Bible teaches about the very basic points of salvation. Look, I was thinking about this today. This parenting idea. And why all these kids are being targeted for all these different things. Santa Claus just being one of them. And I was thinking about this analogy to just kind of figure out how can I make an analogy about kids being tossed to and fro, kids needing to be trained up. If kids are trained in the wrong way they may never depart from that. Just like if they're trained in the right way God promises they'll never depart from it. But I was thinking about this and I thought about, I thought about I had this, I had like a real live, like most of you younger people probably don't know this but like the real red rider wagon, the metal one. You know what I mean? That's what I had when I was a kid. And I had this huge hill by my house and I decided I wanted to make a go-kart out of this wagon. And it was the wagon where if you fold the handle back you hold the handle like this and you kind of steer it with the handle. And it was the real metal wagon. And what I did was like this wagon, this is a steep hill it's gonna tip over if I go down this hill in this wagon. So what I did was I grabbed some wood out of the wood pile that my dad had and I grabbed these really sturdy pieces of wood that were like, it was like door casing. And I made these wings out of the, on the side of the wagon. And I attached them to this metal wagon with I think I used nails. I just nailed them right through the metal wagon. And so I had these wings that I thought were really structurally sound. And I got to the top of this hill, how do you think it went?  But the point is I was thinking about this analogy today about parenting. And parenting, what the Bible is telling us about parenting here is that parenting, you're getting in a go-kart and you're kinda at the top of this big hill in this go-kart and you're kinda putting your kids in the go-kart and you're riding down the hill, your kids are riding down the hill in this go-kart and at the top of the hill it's not very steep. And look, there's no brakes on the go-kart. There was no brakes on that red rider wagon. None. Once you start going down the hill, you're going down the hill. This is the parent's life right here. At the top of the hill, it's not steep. It's not steep and you have a lot of control. But as the hill goes on, the wagon starts going faster and faster and faster and you get less and less control. At the top you can make major corrections. This is what the Bible is saying. The Bible is saying that children are easily impressionable. Look, that's where salvation is in that area up there. Salvation's at that top of the hill where there's easy corrections and they're very impressionable. Four, five, six years old. But as you go down the hill and the speed picks up, the danger becomes greater. The danger becomes greater and the corrections that you can make become much smaller when those kids get to be seven, eight, nine, 10 years old. The problems that you can run into get greater and greater and greater as you continue down the hill. Remember, there's no breaks. There's no saying, oh, we need to stop. Walk back up the hill and start over. No, no, no, you're headed down the hill and you can only make corrections, big corrections at the top of the hill. At the bottom of the hill you have good destinations. At the bottom of the hill you have a good place you can end up, where's that? That's the victorious Christian life.  That's the victorious Christian life. That's the destination at the bottom of the hill where everybody wants, everybody wants that wagon to end up, everybody. But there's all sorts of other really bad destinations down there too. There's bad destinations down there like jail, like drugs, like the feminist life of misery, like the young lady that decides she just doesn't want a family and doesn't want all these things. Oh, she'll figure it out when she's 38. You're already at the bottom of the hill, you can't go back up the hill. See the problem is though, the problem is is that people don't pay attention at the top of the hill. They spoil their kids at the top of the hill. Instead of training them, they spoil them. They give them whatever they want, whatever they think will make them happy. Whatever the cultural norms say that the kids need and the kids will like, that's what they give them.  Then they get to the mid bottom of the hill, they get to the mid point of the hill and they're starting to see what's on the bottom and they don't like it. They don't like what's down there. The drugs, the failure, the fornication, the disease, the hordom, the hormone-ongering, the illegitimate children, they don't like all that. Nobody does.  The school says I should do this and the counselor says I should do this and the TV says I should go this way and they get to the bottom and they're in hell and they're like, how did I get here? It's because they didn't pay attention at the top and you can't steer at that point. When you're going 50 miles an hour down the hill and you're almost at the destination, it's too late. It's not going to work. So the Santa thing is just, it's a lie. It's a lie. You're up here at the top of the hill and you have all the power to be the most impressionable that you can be. See, look, it's not about making your kids happy. It's about telling them the truth. The Bible is talking about training, about nurturing. It's about teaching them the truth. There should be no lies at all in that, at all. If you lie about one thing, what else did you lie about? The trainer must have the trust of the person being trained. Look, the reason that Santa targets kids is because they're the most vulnerable and they're the most influenceable. It's very simple. You say, well, what's the big deal?  What's the big deal? Turn to 2nd Timothy chapter four. So the first problem is that it targets kids in their most vulnerable times of their life. At the top of the hill, at the beginning of their life. When they're learning everything and they're the most trusting of you. 2nd Timothy chapter four, the second reason that Santa Claus, the idea of Santa Claus is evil is it makes Jesus fake. He's like, what? That's pretty extreme. Look at 2nd Timothy chapter number four. Look at verse number two. The Bible says, preach the word, be instant, in season, out of season, reprove, rebuke, exhort with all long suffering and doctrine. Paul is talking to a future preacher here. He's telling them, preach the Bible, preach the whole Bible, whether they like it or not. Whether it's popular that day or it's not. Say the whole thing. Four, and he's warning them, he's telling them this, he says, the time will come. Well, they will not endure sound doctrine but after their own lusts, they'll they heap to themselves teachers having itching ears.  They're gonna want some pastor to come in and they're gonna want the pastor to lie to them. They're gonna want the pastor to not tell them everything in the Bible and just tell them only good things and not the bad things, which is probably like that much of the Bible.  It's all warnings and wrath. Why? Because God loves us. That's why. And they shall turn away their ears from what? Look at that. They shall turn away their ears from the truth and shall be turned unto fables. Paul is telling this preacher here, this future preacher, that there's gonna be a time when people, they grab somebody to tell them what they want to hear, not what they need to hear, not what God has told them. See, folks, it's not about whatever makes your kids happy. That's not your job as a parent and that's the attacks you'll get on people. Oh, Santa, it's fun and all this, but being a parent has nothing to do with just doing things that make my kids happy. You know, these are the parents that you'll find a parent that just wants to make their kids happy no matter what and they will lose control of the wagon at the top of the hill. You got a parent that can't control a three-year-old or a four-year-old? You have no chance. You have no chance. The world is gonna control that child. The world is gonna steer that wagon. You can't control them when they are the most controllable, the most impressionable and you can't even be an influence on them at that point. This is why you don't spoil your kids.  You literally don't love them if you don't wanna steer that wagon. So the Bible is saying here, the Bible is saying in 1 Timothy chapter four if we just apply that to children and apply that to it, the Bible is saying some things are good for your kids and some things are bad for your kids. You can't just say everything's good but isn't that what we've been taught today? Don't judge, don't ever make a judgment call on anything. There is no evil, everything's great. No, some things are bad for your kids. Don't teach them lies. Don't teach them some things that are lies and some things that are true.  Don't try to impress lies upon them. And I said Jesus is fake. How does Santa Claus make Jesus fake, pastor? Isn't that kind of an extreme statement? Well, don't teach them some true things. Don't teach them about this guy. I had a parent one time that I knew and I heard them say to their kids, Jesus and Santa are friends. I'm just like, what is happening here? Don't teach them about this man, Jesus Christ who was God in the flesh. Don't teach them about that. Don't teach them about this man that came to earth that was born of a virgin that was God in the flesh. All the miracles that he did, all the amazing things that he did, the kindness that he had, the love that he had, the sacrifice that he had. And guess what? The eternal kingdom that he is reigning over and that he will reign over for eternity. Don't teach them about that, that truth. And then teach them all the same things about fake Santa. I mean, what are you trying to do? That he's this loving father figure. He has all these magical powers. He can magically fly around the world and do all these amazing things that, I mean, he's basically, he must be God to do this. He's eternal. Santa's been around forever, right? Centuries. He must be eternal. He literally has the same attributes of God and Jesus except it's all a lie. It's all not true. You don't think that's gonna shake someone's faith? Shake someone's confidence when parents lie to them for eight, nine, 10 years of their life? Just to do what? Just to make them happy? Just to spoil them? To give them what they want? It's wicked. It's evil. It's the epitome of bad parenting. So that, I mean, he takes the place of Jesus. Except Jesus is true. That's the problem though. Jesus wasn't, isn't some moral story. Jesus was really born of a virgin. Okay, we're celebrating Christmas. I don't know if he was born on December 25th. Probably not, but we're celebrating the birth of the Messiah that God sent, his son to die for the sins of the world. That really happened. And if you trust in that, you will really be passed from death to eternal life. Really. It's true. So don't teach all these parallel lies to your small children. Like the idea that people could do this, it just, I know it's shocking. But here's another one. It gets even worse. Here's the third one. So Santa, I mean, he tries, he's a lie that tries to replace Jesus or takes the same attributes of Jesus. The second one is this. It promotes works-based salvation. The idea of Santa Claus is a subtle, a subtle attack on the gospel itself. You say, what? Look, turn to Revelation chapter 20. Here's the important list in the Bible in Revelation chapter 20. Look at verse number 15. But what does Santa teach? It says, be good, get a reward. Do good things, get a reward. He makes a list. He checks it twice. Just make sure he didn't make a mistake, I suppose. But you're not on the list. Coal or whatever, right? We'll get to that in just a second. But look at Revelation chapter 20, verse number 15. I mean, this is kind of a parallel to the Bible. The Bible says that whosoever was not found written in the book of life was cast into the lake of fire. Whosoever is not written in the book of life is not getting a lump of coal. Whosoever is not saved, the Bible is saying here, is gonna spend in eternity in hell, which will eventually be in the lake of fire. See, but here's the problem.  What's the big deal? This is Santa Claus, it's not real. Here's the problem, folks. Salvation is not a reward. You're like, what? It confuses the gift of salvation. It confuses the very idea of a gift.  Is that a gift? How many times has anyone ever said, yes, it would still be a gift? Never. Because people know what a gift is, but this confuses the gift of salvation. Work hard, be good, get a gift. But wait a minute. I mean, kids all across America, listen to me, they believe in Santa Claus. You need to revolt right now. You don't work for a gift. All the kids that believe in Santa Claus should be against all these presents from Santa being gifts and they should look at it and they should open it and say, I earned this. Because that's what they did, right? They worked for it. There was a list that Santa checks. They earned that gift thing. And you'll see this with what Christian churches teach today. Nobody really gets coal in the Santa story.  Here's a chunk of coal. You probably couldn't find a chunk of coal in California to save your life. But it never happens. You know what this does? This promotes this idea that yeah, as long as you try, everybody's going to heaven. And how many people believe that? That's what everybody believes. Everybody believes that if they're pretty good, they're gonna make it to heaven. That's, in one version or another, that is what the vast majority of people believe. Do you know if you're gonna go to heaven and they will give you some version of I think if I'm pretty good, I'm gonna get to heaven. You know, none of those people that think that will be in heaven. The Bible is super, it's either works or it's grace. It is not a mixture of the two. The Bible is very clear about that.  I started to recognize this scam when I was just a teenager. I remember going to Lutheran funerals. I was decades away from being saved. I remember going to Lutheran funerals and listening to the pastor at the funeral talk about the person that was in the casket and just be like, we know they're in heaven because of their baptism or because of this or because of that or whatever. And I'm just like, I started to realize this is a scam.  That guy hated church. That guy was a drunk. That guy, I mean, you believe in work salvation and you're looking at somebody who was a terrible human being who hated church, everything it stood for and the pastor's up there preaching like he's in heaven. I'm like, this doesn't seem right to me, but it wasn't right. None of it's right, because nobody's getting to heaven by their good works, because if they have at least one bad one, you got one sin, you're done. So you say, why Christmas gifts? Why do we even give Christmas gifts? Turn to Matthew chapter two. So look, it confuses the gift of salvation because we don't earn our salvation, folks. You got your salvation as a gift, like a real gift. You didn't do any work to get it. You say, well, where does the idea of Christmas gifts even come from? In my opinion, it's one of the dumbest things we do as Americans. We get each other these Christmas, look, I do it too in my house.  And then some guys running down the street with my Christmas gifts and I'm in my car like, what are you doing with my Christmas gifts? I shouldn't, I wasn't supposed to tell this story. But it's just a really dumb thing that people do as Americans, but where did the idea of even gifts for Christmas come from? Now no one's gonna get me anything. Look at Matthew chapter two, verse number 11. Here's the first, there's two leading theories here. The idea of where the tradition of gifts came from. It's Matthew chapter two and verse number 11 that the wise men gave the child Jesus gifts. Look at verse number 11. It says, and they were coming to the house, they saw the young child because they weren't there at the birth, okay? Even though the nativity scenes say that. And when they were coming to the house, they saw the young child with Mary his mother and fell down and worshiped him. And when they had opened their treasures, they presented unto him gifts, gold and frankincense and myrrh. So there's kind of one of the theories of like why we give Christmas gifts as the wise men, the kings brought gifts to Jesus. But really, I mean, the main reason that I believe that Christmas is surrounded with this idea of a gift is because Jesus is the gift. God gave his only begotten son. God gave us this gift. But look at Romans chapter five and verse number eight. But the problem is this folks, and this is what Santa Claus twists. We didn't earn that. As a matter of fact, the Bible is very clear to point out that we did the opposite of earn it. We did the opposite of earn Jesus coming here. We didn't deserve it. We didn't try. We didn't even get right. Nobody repented of their sins.  I'm sending Jesus. No, nobody earned anything. It was just a gift. Look at Romans five and verse number eight. But God commendeth his love toward us. That means he showed his love toward us in that while we were yet what? While we were yet sinners, Christ died for us. God gave us this gift when we were sinning against him. We did nothing to earn it. We did the opposite. We should have got coal. We all, everybody deserves coal.  Is what the Bible clearly teaches.  But God, while we didn't deserve it, gave us a gift. He gave us a way out. Because there's no way we're getting ourselves out of this. You can't be good enough. You can't be good enough to cover up something you've already done wrong. It's not possible. You can't go and murder someone or steal someone's car and then say, well, I'm good. You're going to jail. And God is the ultimate judge. He is the righteous judge. He never makes mistakes. So we didn't work for our salvation. If you're saved tonight, you didn't work for that.  And the word gift, everybody understands. Even a child understands. Just that word means it's free. Salvation is not a reward. And the gift from Santa is a reward. It confuses. It confuses. Turn to 1 Corinthians chapter 14. I mean, was work done for either of those gifts? Did Jesus the child work for the gifts that the wise men gave him? No. Did we work for the gift of salvation? We didn't work for Jesus. No. Look at 1 Corinthians chapter 14. You still think it's harmless? Folks at the top of the hill, that's the time to be focused, not sowing confusion with your children. Look at 1 Corinthians 14, 33. The Bible says this. It says, for God is not the author of confusion. It's in all the churches of the saints. Turn to 2 Corinthians chapter 11. Turn to 2 Corinthians chapter number 11. See, at the top of the hill, the major corrections can be made. But also the major errors. You can steer either all the way the right way or you can steer all the way the wrong way at the top of that hill. So don't do anything as a parent to do these two things. Don't do anything as a parent to contradict God's word. This is why the Bible speaks so harshly against hypocrisy, about a parent being a hypocrite, about a parent telling his children one thing and then doing another. This is why God made children at the age of three, four, and five years old hypocrite detectors. This is why children are so in tuned to what their parents say, but they also, and more importantly, they watch what their parents do. God gave them that. Do not do anything as a parent. Look, no one's a perfect parent. But do not do anything purposely like Santa Claus and these lies to contradict the word of God. The second one is this. Look at 2 Corinthians chapter 11 and look at verse number three. The second thing that you should never do as a parent is never do anything as a parent to confuse the simplicity which is in Christ. You see, Satan has no choice. God has made the gospel simple. You go to a Pentecostal church and ask them what it takes to be saved. You can get some confusion there. You can get some confusing answers there. They're gonna be like, well, you gotta do this and you gotta do this and don't sin seven times in a day and do this and you gotta go whoo!  You gotta let this snake bite you and you gotta watch me die.  But it's confusing. It's sowing confusion. Don't do anything as a parent to confuse this simplicity. See, the gospel is already simple. Satan has to confuse it. He has to make it complicated because it's already the simple best answer. Imagine being up against that. Somebody's got the best answer. Occam's razor. Occam's razor, the simplest solution is usually the best. That's the gospel right there. And he's got it. He has no choice but to confuse it. Look at 2 Corinthians 11, verse number three. The Bible says, But I fear, lest by any means, as the serpent beguiled Eve, how did he do it? Through his subtlety, so your mind should be corrupted from the simplicity that is in Christ. The gospel is simple. It has to be corrupted and made complex and confusing in order for it not to be accepted. Don't do anything to confuse that simplicity. It's like God's packaged it up for you. He's packaged it up for these kids. And it's so simple that literally we will be out soul winning and a 10 year old will get saved. An 11 year old will get saved. A 12 year old will get saved. You'll have bunches of kids just understanding who Jesus is, what he did for them, what they have to do to get the gift of salvation and they'll just get saved right on the spot because it's simple. Don't do anything to confuse that, especially in these crucial years. I mean, the idea of Santa is evil. It's to confuse children. And it has direct targets on salvation in their Christian life.  And for your grandchildren and your great grandchildren and Santa is just not a part of your household. The first one is this.   Let me tell you something. I was very joyful in my house. And Santa has nothing to do with it. That's a ridiculous, even statement. I mean, is there any other joy that is the joy that is in Christ? Is there any other better joy than knowing that while I deserve to go to hell, I have been given a gift of salvation and I don't have to go there anymore.  God has made me that type of promise through Christ. No, and now I'm gonna spend this December 25th remembering that God sent this savior for me who deserve nothing of it.  Give me a break. It's ridiculous. So that's ridiculous, but here's another one. And this is for the moms out there. Moms, homeschooling moms need to get meaner. They need to get meaner when people attack them because you know what, moms? I would have loved to have been there every single time my wife got attacked for our beliefs or homeschooling or raising our children according to what this book we should do. I would have loved to have been there every single time but I was there for very few of those times actually because people won't say anything when I'm around. But moms need to get, homeschooling moms especially, Christian homeschooling moms need to start turning into Wolverines in this country.  You're too serious. You're taking this stuff too seriously. Yeah, you bet I'm serious about my children. You bet I'm serious about how I bring up my child according to what God says I should and shouldn't do.  And moms, you need to get like this. Especially amongst other women that would come at you and subtly throw in digs about how you're doing things. Because guess what? You're right. And if you're doing things the correct way, you know what, don't feel bad if you've hurt somebody's feelings. Who's being outright rude to you. But I wanna read you this blog post. And it was this woman, she was asked and like this has to do with homeschooling but you just apply this everywhere in your life ladies. This lady was asked and you'll be asked this very question because my wife has been asked, I've been asked it just maybe a handful of times, my wife has been asked this many times. And what people will do is this lady says we were asked why we homeschool. And she was explaining how when people ask her why they homeschool, it always turns into this rabid, angry response from the person defending why they do things the way they do things. So get the picture here. You have a homeschool mom who has asked a question. And this is her response. She said when I started homeschooling I would get asked why I chose that path. Honestly, or honesty would get them immediately defensive of their choice and then instead of listening to me they would start telling me why they would, could, never do it, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah. She says. So look, here's another thing. If you ask a homeschool mom genuinely on it, like why do you homeschool? They will be more than happy to tell you. But this woman is explaining that every single time she was asked, she was almost immediately cut off and the person just started angrily, I've seen this so many times, started angrily defending why they don't do it that way. Before she could even get her answer out. And then she continues, she said to which, she's saying this is the reaction that I get. And she says to this reaction I generally respond, I don't care. I didn't ask you, you asked me. More moms should say that. Just when they start going off on why they do things, why they have a career, why they're leaving their children at daycare, why they don't think that homeschooling is it, why they think the public school is fine, why they think all these things are the right way to go, I don't care. I don't care. I didn't ask you because what homeschooling mom would ever want to know? She already knows why they made that decision. Because they're greedy. Because they're not saved. Because they don't believe the Bible.  She's like, I don't care. I didn't ask you, you asked me. Memorize that one ladies, use it. Get used to people not liking your choices as parents. But guess what, they're all asleep at the wheel. They're all asleep at the wheel and they're asleep at the wheel the whole way down the hill. And you may think, you parents of young children, you may think that they're gonna get down to the bottom of that hill. And when the destination they arrive at is jail, or death, or disease, or fornication, or a ruined life in whatever form that may be, you may think now that oh, they'll realize then, they will never realize. Unless they get saved and have the Holy Spirit in them and start listening to this, they will never realize. They'll blame other people, they'll blame the system, they'll blame their own children at that point. But they will never realize.  I used to have it too. They're all asleep at the wheel.  Because they're all laying down in the wagon. So it's not a small thing. All these lies that are told to our children. There's agendas behind everything.  You go into any cartoon. You go into any media that is targeted towards children. And there is a wicked evil agenda. And you see why? Because everybody wants in the wagon, in your kid's wagon, at the top of that hill. If you don't steer, somebody else is going to. That's by our heads and have a word of praise.


TFNN, The Tiger, Financial News Network. Update. Hi everyone, Basel Chapman here. This is the Tiger Financial News Network, 10am market update on this Wednesday, 23rd of February. The Dow was up much sharper earlier on. It hit $33,832. It's now down almost 200 points from that. It's at $33,645. This is where we start to look at whether it's able to hammer out some kind of a low. We have the H-pattern. We haven't gone down back to the $33,150 low that was made on the 24th. But we did get just 200 points away from that yesterday. We'll see if there's some kind of a relief rally. We're very close to some kind of an overbought situation that says, of a sole situation that says we should have some kind of relief rally. We get the S&P also giving up some of its gains. The S&P is now up 10 at 43.14.40. It was up at the 43.41 area. That's quite a bit of a pullback. It too didn't make the 4.22 low that was made on the 24th. We're going to be watching this very closely. The day is young. Let's see if any strength comes in a little later on. Now, this is fascinating. The QQQ came within $0.20 of the low of the 24th. $334.15 was the low in the NX100 trading vehicle. Yesterday, the low was $334.35. It's up $0.42 of $338.50. We'll see whether or not we're going to keep going down and break that low or start to find some kind of support in the lower case. H is a successful test or an unsuccessful test. IWM, the Russell 2000, is also pulling back a little bit, but it's holding a little bit better. It's up $0.64 at $107.20. Now, this is going to be interesting because gold is still holding really well. It's up $2 at $19.08. The crude oil, you'd think crude oil would be pulling back. No, crude oil is up $1 at $92.91 near the recent highs. All of these are suggesting that the tensions are still there and they're being reflected in these commodities. Looking at the TLT, did that manage a rally? Nope. It's failing. It's down $1.55 at $137. So, yields are still going higher. And if we're looking at the VIX index, VIX.X, there it is. The VIX index is now up $0.29 at $0.29, $0.11, up $0.30. We're going to be watching this. I'll talk about all of these different areas when we get back for the Tiger Technicians Hour in a couple of moments and check out my opening call by daily newsletter. Be back in a few minutes. Hope you can


Hey everyone, it's theCUBE Live at Dell Tech World. Day three of our coverage of the 2023 event from Mandalay Bay, Lisa Martin, Dave Vellante here. We have been coming to you since Monday night, all day yesterday, all day today we're here talking a lot about innovation, Dave. There's been a ton of talk about innovation. You've got two alumni back with us, Dell and Broadcom. Going to be talking about the latest gen of the Broadcom 9600 family. Please welcome Kim Leigh and our principal performance architect at Broadcom. Great to have you back, Kim. Yeah, thanks for having us. Hey, Miss Jones joins us as well, Director of Server Technical Marketing Engineering at Dell. Thanks so much, guys, for joining us. Of course, happy to be here. Yeah. So let's talk about the latest generation of the Broadcom 9600. Kim, give us kind of the technical lay of the land and all, there's some significant performance numbers that have been achieved. Yeah, and I was actually really proud to be a part of this. This came about about five or six years ago. I'm part of the architecture team and we decided that we were just going to blow up all the previous norms. We weren't going to do this incremental improvement. We were going to do this big, massive improvement in performance and we really did that. And we did that with a couple of different technologies using offload engines. We doubled the memory. We doubled the host bandwidth and using PCIe Gen 4 and 24 gig SAS. So it's been really exciting. Shameth, talk a little bit about Dell's involvement there and how you've been a facilitator or an enabler of that. Absolutely, so our partnership with Broadcom has gone on for multiple years and really the development of PERC 12 as a generational improvement has made a dynamic impact on our 16th generation of servers, which we just launched last year. Really the exciting part is that customers' implementations are seeing the benefit from those performance gains that Kim was talking about. And our partnership between the testing and the performance gain that we saw in the testing meant that we're able to deploy that in all sorts of different use cases. So when you're at an event like this and you see the main stage and there's a lot of very high-level messaging about how technology's going to affect the world and we get into some of the product stuff in the keynotes. But I like these conversations because now we're going inside, right? Because you've got to have deep technology. It's not just the microprocessor. It's all the surrounding components. The other pieces that you guys are building in to make this a reality. Kim, you and I have talked about the changes we've seen over the last 10, now even 12 years where everything was designed for spinning disk and now you guys have worked together for years and years and years and that completely changes the game. We've been looking forward to this era for a long, long time. Can you take us through that progression and how it's manifested itself in these products? Do you want to take this? You want me to talk to it? When you look at the full portfolio of products, even the ones that were launched around the XC9680 this past week, the performance within those incorporates the PowerEdge RAID controller. So it's appropriate that you talk about digging into under the covers, right? Because under the covers of every PowerEdge system is the capability to integrate this Broadcom controller, this PowerEdge RAID controller. And as a consequence, even for workloads like AI, these exciting new workloads, people almost take it for granted that these controllers exist and the performance that's associated with them, but they enable the rest of the architecture, even things like IO against the disk, right? Critical elements within the server drive performance. So if you look at drive types have been changing over time, we look at the integration of accelerators and the adaptation of these RAID controllers to get even faster. And the partnership that we have with Broadcom has really enabled that. What have been the enablers underneath? Is, I mean, we, again, talked about the balance, but take us inside, what are the sort of fundamental principles, the design pillars, if you will, what are the key aspects that we need to know about? From a performance standpoint, we actually had three different kind of pillars. And one of them was what we call the happy path IO. So that's your bandwidth, that's your IOPS. That's when everything's going good. The other thing is that we looked at latency and that's really important for a lot of different things like logging and telemetry and things such as that that are really important to keep that latency super low. We're talking about sub 10 microsecond latencies. And then the third thing is something called performance under rebuild. And what that is is we're trying to hide when there is something that does go wrong, when a drive fails and you have to undergo a rebuild. And we've actually been able to, in many cases, completely hide that from the end user. In terms of both latency and performance. So, when systems were designed for spinning disk, it was always that right performance that would kill you. Is, how has that changed with Flash and NVME? Is it the same, it's just faster? Or has the bottleneck shifted? Help us understand some of the architectural constraints. So I've been doing this now for 24 years. And when I first started out, I remember that hard disk, they could do maybe 100 IOs per second. Maybe 200 if you had a really fast one and you really pushed it hard. And there was this one day where I had this epiphany and we were playing around with the member when they first came out with these little USB disks. We were laughing about, if we plugged a bunch of these things in because they were built on Flash, we would have this really fast performance and then we went, uh-oh, now the game has completely changed. So before the drives were really slow, now the drives are so fast and there became a moment in time where we really had to go back and say, how do we redesign these? And what we did was NVME right now is our design leader. We went out, we looked at what NVME drives are capable of. We went out, we asked our customers, we said, hey, what kind of performance do you need? What kind of applications are you doing? So we didn't do this in the ether. None of this was designed just in our own little light ram. We talked to customers. And you know, one of the big concerns about customers that they have these days is that they said, you know, look, our capacity of these drives are going so fast, they're increasing at rates we've never seen. We're looking at- I mean, they're up to 15 terabytes now. Right now. NVME on the Flash. Absolutely. And even up to 40 terabytes, very, very large, you know, coming in the next 12 months. And what's happening is that the performance of these drives is not increasing at the same rate that the capacity is. So you end up with this little bit of a gap and that's where our performance under rebuild comes into play here is because a drive cannot rebuild itself any faster than it can write to itself. So that performance of that drive is a key indicator of how fast you can rebuild. And that's what our customers are saying, hey, look, I'm really concerned. What can we do about this? Give us a reference point as to what a rebuild time in say a hard disk configuration would be compared to where you guys are at today. Can you make a comparison? I mean, I've seen rebuild times, a hard disk to take, I don't know, weeks. It's 97 times. So if you look at 97 times faster with the Perk 12 than previous generation, I mean, usually you know how it works. Generation on generation improvements, you see 20 to 30% of a performance improvement. Not 97 times the performance improvement. And the key thing is that, look, none of us want drives to fail, right? But ever since the days of spinning disk drives do fail and you need to plan for that redundancy. That's why we have rate in the first place, right? But if you're able to plan for not just the rebuild times of being 5.5 times faster, but then while under load, you can have 97 times better performance of your application. It means that the net net of that result is that the end user doesn't see a performance impact while that drive has failed and you're having to replace it and rebuild. Historically before Perk 12, you know, drive would fail, you'd send off for replacement from Dell, we'd send one to you directly within a four hour SLA depending on your service contract, you replace it and then you rebuild for however long that might take based on the size of the drive. Which could be weeks or... Depending on the size of the drive or the full RAID set, maybe. A single drive wouldn't necessarily be weeks, but if you were to rebuild the entire RAID set, it could be quite substantial. Sheamus, you had me at 97X performance improvement. Yeah, two orders of magnitude. Right. The customer feedback must be pretty amazing. Share some of that with us. Yeah, absolutely. This past week, during Dell Technologies World, the feedback from customers has been, look, not only are we seeing this performance impact in 16G across CPU, memory, frameworks, DDR5, as well as PCIe Gen5, but we're a Gen4 devices, but we're able to see that within the drive types that are associated. And these RAID controllers enable that performance improvement across the entire ecosystem of the server. So it's a really exciting use case. They're seeing it for things like healthcare, right? Government applications, as well as financial and fintech types of customers. So those high frequency, low latency applications where they're doing things like database or queries that might have a real impact on their business. Is there an application for this product for a spinning disk still? Are they still relevant? Absolutely. What's the delta impact there? So we definitely designed it with hard disks in mind as well because in terms of cost per gigabyte, you really can't beat spinning media still. So it's really great for a little bit more colder kind of data, but we still are there to protect it to make sure that it's still highly available. In terms of performance, we can still 100% enable hard drive performance and not only that, but we can accelerate the right performance of hard drives by up to, we've seen two and three X just by doing some optimizations in the right caching algorithms that we have on our controllers. Go ahead. That being said though, the cost of flash has come down dramatically in the past 12 months. I was going to ask you because I mean, we've been, we certainly correctly called the crossover that's an oxymoron, but high spin speed, high performance disks and flash, that was clear. We thought it was going to happen sooner, and our premise was it doesn't have to even cross over because you get so much other advantages with so many other advantages with flash, things like data sharing and space efficient snapshots on and on, but to your point, Seamus, are we almost there where that crossover is? We're getting there. We're definitely getting there and we're seeing that customers, because of the performance improvements and the price per gig of that flash optimization and the capability of this Perk 12 to be able to do hardware based RAID from the RAID controller on those flash drives. That's something that historically customers might not have adopted. They might have thought, I'll do a direct attach on an NVMe drive and not have the benefit of RAID redundancy and run the risk for their applications. Whereas with this, we're enabling, we're making sure that they get peak performance. They're able to take full advantage of those NVMe drives and they're able to deploy across their full estate within their environment. Seamus, can you expand on, you mentioned healthcare, but some of the industries that are really primed to be significantly impacted by the power and the performance of this technology?  Within healthcare, specifically, it's critical data, absolutely critical data. It needs to be accessed without lag.  I mean, that's an impact, a direct impact for a user. And when we look at the rest of the use cases, I mean, FinTech, those are high frequency traders. Oftentimes, they're not necessarily using accelerators. They're actually using larger disk profiles and more of them. So that makes this rate controller even more important. You know, and one interesting thing he's talking about transactional performance is that this new generation, we're seeing an eight to 10x improvement over our previous generation for those kind of applications. So transactional performance is extremely important for a lot of different applications in different environments. And from an end user, how many times have been on the phone with a call center?  Exactly. Yeah, because you know, they're doing reads. They're trying to read a record, right? That's exactly it, that happens all the time. And they're trained now to blame the system, right? Yes, they are, yeah, absolutely. So in latency, again, latency is just, it's become so important. And one of the things that we've been able to do is we actually have these caching engines. They're hardware engines that handle all the right caching. So as these I-O write I-Os come into our controller, we're able to write those down at between five and 10 microseconds. And then write those out optimally at a later time and date or even just kind of re-sort them. And so, you know, with these great latencies, we're even lower than the best enterprise NVMe drives. We can beat that and we can make it, you know, consistent. So for those SLAs that he was talking about, it's really critical, you know, for messaging and logging and things like that, where you have to maintain these consistent. You can't have these 99.99 tail latencies that are 10 and 20 seconds, which we had seen, you know, kind of in some of the previous generations, we're like, well, you know, why are we having these latencies? And so we've been able to take care of that. We can assure up to 99.99% latencies up to the max I-O of less than 10 microseconds now. Sub 10 mics, wow. So the knee of the curve is not going to... Unbelievable. People want consistent performance. Yes. You know, they can deal with that as long as it's within some kind of boundary. Yeah, so, absolutely. Yeah. Guys, what, in our final minute or so here, so tremendous amount of innovation improvement, a lot of benefits and worldwide worldly applications as you talked about, Seamus. Absolutely. What's next for Dell and Broadcom? I'd love to get both of your perspectives on that. Oh, there's a lot. Let's put it down. There's a lot going on under the covers. We can talk about roadmaps in customer sessions, but there's a lot of innovation happening with Dell and Broadcom. Everything from Nix right through to Silicon on the board, right through to the new rate controllers. I mean, we're doing planning on future generations. We have strong partnership for the longevity of Broadcom. And the other thing that I did want to mention quickly is that within government applications, the use of a hardware root of trust, it meant that all the component parts within the server are able to validate and certify through the rate controller so that the devices, if they're tampered with, can ensure that they can be a stable platform. And if there's anything that's manipulated or changed from factory right through to customer deployment, it won't even boot the system. So it's an additional security feature that's embedded into the rate controller. And that's a key critical element for the rest of the pieces within the server. And every industry will benefit. Every industry, especially fed, especially government deployments. Can you work in the audience, go to learn more? So you can go on to the Broadcom website right now, so broadcom.com, and then you can go into the NVMe SSD section of that. And there's all kinds of information. And of course, Dell also has some dedicated reports. We have the Tollery report where we tested over 60 different data points. And so customers can kind of look and say, my application, what kind of performance can I expect? Excellent. Shamus, Kim, thank you so much for coming on here, sharing the innovations that Dell and Broadcom are continuing to deliver that are making global impact. We appreciate your insights. Thank you so much. Our pleasure. For our guest and for Dave Vellante, I'm Lisa Martin. After a short break, Dave and I are going to be joined by two CUBE alumni talking about what's driving storage in 2023. We're going to be talking about cyber threats and how Dell is helping customers overcome a lot of challenges and more on PowerStore. We'll see you after a short break.
