little way here on a Monday morning, I'm Jay Fidel. This is Think Tech, The Handsome Young Man, is Chang Wong. We're gonna talk about from here to there with immigration lawyer Susan Cohen. Welcome Chang, welcome Susan, nice to see you. Great to be here, thank you. So Chang, can you introduce Susan and try to be fair about this? Cause immigration lawyers, they get a bum rap these days. Everybody always says there's no more immigration law. How come there are immigration lawyers? Good point, David. Well, it is my great honor and pleasure to introduce Susan. Legendary, nationally recognized lawyer, I have the fortune to call a mentor and friend, as chair of the Means of Immigration Party, and Susan called a work with corporate clients and to address the constant immigration challenges. Susan is very active in American Immigration Lawyer Association and a country built with federal and state immigration regulation. It's frequently quoted by media. It's an editor of the Means of Immigration Law blog and a recognized as popular author of Edie Supra. Very interestingly, you may know that Susan led a team of Means lawyers working with the ACLU of Massachusetts and to obtain a temporary with any other DRO of the 2017 Trump Tribal Bank. For her proposed work, they have helped many immigrants who have been obtained asylum. But today, we invite Susan to be on the show cause she just published a book, The Inspiring and Assault Powering Book on Immigration. The title is Journey's Problems There to Hear Stories of Immigrant Files and a Contribution. Receiving real reviews and short to help to the number one Amazon bestseller in a slew of different categories. I've read this book and I'm pleased to report it's a very, very good read. The famous writer was exiled from Albania and the Greek. Somali Norman turned multinational banker in Asian war virtuoso, violentness with perfect pitch and many more. With eye-opening collection of immigrant files, the views leading function immigration lawyer Susan Cohen invite you to walk her client and their shared incredible journey coming to America overcoming unimaginable dangers and often the heart breaking of those frauds. When massively of these marginalized voices, they embody the remarkable realities of staggering worship and inspiring resilience. I see you'll read this book, right? Roy, often. Okay, okay, Chang, we're gonna use the whole show on the introduction. Let's get to Susan. Susan, why'd you become an immigration lawyer? Is it because you're empathetic with people that you have a big heart? Is that what it is? Tell us. I guess, Jay, it turns out that that seems to be the case because I didn't think that's what I was gonna do with my life. I started out thinking that I was gonna be a corporate litigator and I joined my firm, Men's Levin, which is a large corporate law firm in Boston. A wonderful place. I've been there my whole career, 36 years. But I started out doing litigation and then I had an experience where I got to represent as a very junior associate like a second year rising first second year associate an amazing Japanese potter who was doing his visa and residency at Harvard and at a very special museum called the Peabody Essex Museum. And this guy was here with his whole family and he carried on this traditional pottery that was very unusual, seven generations. It was the seventh generation potter. His work was exquisite. I ended up being a lucky one to put his case together. Got a green card for him and his family and it was so incredibly meaningful to me. They were so grateful. Their life trajectory was changed for the better in a way that they had deeply wanted but didn't know if it would come to pass. And we had a wonderful celebration and I felt so good about it that I changed course and decided to start an immigration practice at my law firm. But that's- You know, that's so funny, Susan. My first immigration case also involved a Japanese potter who I'm friendly with even today. Ask your client if he knows Yukio Ozaki. They know each other. I guess they do. I have his case bound, Velo Bound on the bookshelf of my office because it's the very first immigration case I ever worked on. And I remind myself all the time that I was inspired and I love this work. I love helping people and it's not easy. No, it's hard these days. And on my joke before we began is there still immigration law? I mean, I know some immigration lawyers here in Honolulu that swear there's nothing they can do anymore. Even in the day of Biden, it's much harder to help people. Am I right? You are right. And there are reasons for that. Would you like me to talk about them? Yes. I would be delighted. And it's very nice to share this opportunity with you and your watchers today. I mean, it kind of wraps into why I wrote the book. So maybe I'll say a little bit about why I wrote the book and then it will lead us inexorably into the question of why is it so difficult today? So why did I write journeys from there to here? It wasn't like I'd ever really planned to write a book. I just was in the trenches every day helping my clients like this wonderful gentleman in front of us. And putting in very long hours as you probably know because you are an immigration lawyer. So you know how hard it is, how long the hours are and you're very tired at the end of the day. But then President Trump came along. He started campaigning and during his campaign and his presidency, President Trump unleashed the severe virulent xenophobia. You know, xenophobia in the United States rises and falls over the course of time and history. And during President Trump's era, he unleashed tremendous hatred of immigrants and xenophobic rhetoric across the country. And he used his platform and he used his presidency once he became president to restrict immigration in the form of approximately 400 standalone separate moves that he did as policy regulations, the travel bans and he used his bully pulpit in my opinion as a platform to spew a lot of exaggerations and generalizations and stereotypes about immigrants painting all immigrants with a broad brush as murderers and rapists and terrible people. You know in the late of that, even though I was working so hard trying to help people after President Trump got elected because it became so much harder for immigrants after that, I decided that the only way to counter that narrative of fear mongering and painting all immigrants with one broad brush as terrible people was to try to showcase the human face of immigration by delving into individual stories of wonderful people that I picked for this book who are representative of so many other thousands and hundreds of thousands and millions of immigrants to the United States. It's a large representation across the book of all the different people that are featured to give the public insight into how hardworking, how wonderful immigrants truly are and what they bring to the country, how much they have to overcome before they even get here, the stuff they are made of, the resilience, the strength of creativity. Give me your tired masses turning. I wanted to celebrate our common humanity and have people walk with each of these people through their journey to create a bond and to show them the only way to counter stereotypes is to tell stories. It's a storytelling exercise. Look at each of these people and what they had to overcome to get here and how incredible their work is and how much they're benefiting us and how we're lucky that they're here. Really, the book is about a celebration, truly a celebration of immigrants and we need to remember that we should always be a nation of immigrants. It's an uplifting book. It's an uplifting read at the end of the day. You go through some dark passages along the way in each person's chapter because many of the reasons they fled and came were dark reasons. I don't want to give too much away because I hope people will buy the book and read the book. All the proceeds are going to charity. Good for you. From there to here on Amazon. Thank you. I really mostly wanted to have something for people to read and make them feel good. There's so much bad news these days. There's so much bad news, not just in the immigration sphere, but we wake up every day to pretty discouraging headlines. But when you pick up the book, you feel good about the country. You feel good about the principles of immigration and you know that immigrants really make our country. I hope it, by the way, somebody's got a typist nearby and that sound is getting on our soundtrack. I can hear somebody typing. I can hear your question. Why things are so hard? I also wanted to shine a spotlight through these narratives of the downsides and the flaws and the faults in the immigration system and the way the immigration laws and the system are administered by different agents. It's true, but I'd like to lay an environment first, Susan. This country with the Statue of Liberty and the poem about what was her name, Lazarus, you know, the great Colossus, I think the poem was called. You know, it's the definition of the country and indeed, you know, from an economic point of view, it has made the country over a couple hundred years great. And of course, this isolationism, nationalism, xenophobia doesn't help going forward because we lose the prospect of that going forward. And what I think though, ultimately is where we, our immigration laws need to be reformed. And I'd like to ask you about that. I had a friend who served as counsel in the House immigration committee for a lifetime. And he waited and waited and waited for immigration reform. And it didn't really happen. You know, I suggest to you that we need that. But the other thing is, and this is really important, borders in our lifetimes in the past decade, even have been dissolving. That's before the migrant issue happened in Europe. But until the migrant issue happened, until nationalism reared its head, borders were dissolving. And I suggest to you, Susan, that in the future, borders may dissolve even further. And we may find a borderless world. And in many ways, it appeals to me, although, you know, Trump's claim that terrible people slip in. Bottom line is that, aren't we ultimately looking for a better world, a world without borders? A world where immigration law is very kind and gentle. Aren't we looking for that? Well, that's a very lofty and noble goal, Jay. And I agree with many of the thoughts that you just referenced. I don't think it's going to happen in our lifetime. And in the meantime, we are dealing with borders and we are dealing with officers that, you know, are not always very kind and don't always administer the law equally to everybody coming across the border. We have the people fleeing from, you know, fleeing from horrific, atrocious situations where their lives and their family's lives are in danger. And while we still have the system that we have, you know, our job as lawyers is to at least try to make sure that the law is applied equitably and that when people take advantage of people that were lucky enough to represent, that we stand up for them and we fight them tooth and nail to make sure that the Constitution is upheld and their rights are protected. And, you know, that includes asylum seekers, you know, and it's really, really important that we get the borders back to a state where people are admitted to be able to make or at least make the case about why they are requesting asylum and not, you know, my short-term goals is to try to fight for anyone who comes to me for help and not just on an individual basis, but in class actions and all the federal court litigation that I try to do to protect large... I thought you wanted to get away from litigation, Susan. Yeah, well, at certain times it feels pretty good. You know, I'll sue the government. I don't have any hesitation in suing, you know, the Department of Homeland Security or the president by name if necessary to make sure that my client gets what he or she deserves.  You have those kinds of situations. That's a great question, Jay. As a matter of fact, I've had some cases like that where I wasn't sure if the person in front of me was the kind of person that I wanted to represent. And, you know, as Chang alluded to, I kind of get a lot of inquiries all from people all over the world because, fortunately, I've developed a reputation. And sometimes I get agents representing dictators contacting me. I don't take those cases, as you might imagine. I once had someone who worked in the, you know, the Serbian Croatian War in a concentration camp and swore to me that he didn't persecute or harm other people, but I wasn't sure. And I actually paid for the lie detector test out of my pocket and had him take a lie detector test, which didn't, and the results didn't satisfy me. And I declined to represent that person. And there have been a few other people whose names I can't mention, but they're very common, well-known people who have been on the front pages, and I have declined some of their cases as well. But most of the people, I try to find a way to help. I mean, if I believe in them and their cause, and you know, if they're hurting and they can't, and they've tried everything and they've had other lawyers and no one's been able to help them, that tends to be the cases that really pull at my heart strings. Like, they only have one more shot, right? And it's either I win or God knows what will happen to that person and his or her family. So I get highly motivated to do everything. The stakes are very high. It's really essentially life or death for a lot of your prospective clients. And I wonder how that, you know, how that affects your practice and your state of mind when you handle it, it's pretty stressful to handle a capital murder case because the fellow, you know, may be executed. And that's not too far off from being sent back to a world where you will be executed. There is no stronger motivator to dot your eyes and cross your teeth and do everything possible in your human power to save someone when you know their life is on the line. And it's stressful. And the stress doesn't go away till you win the case. And it's stressful for them and their families and their friends, you know. So there's so many people worried, you know, all the time in this country. And, you know, we just have to do the best we can. But I, yeah, I get a lot of massages. Sure. Yeah. It's the stress, you know, the worry about my clients days resides in my, in my person. And I have to exercise it on a weekly base. We can see. Before we go to Chang, I know he has questions for you. I do want to ask one other thing, you know, back in the day seems my, my observation was the immigration lawyers, I mean, immigration officials were pretty tough, but they were human being and you could talk to them and you could appeal to them and they, you know, they would, they would respond to you in Hawaii. We have a certain amount of corruption in the immigration service and known. But, you know, by the large, they were okay to deal with. It strikes me that it's not just Trump. It's maybe the legacy of Trump. They're right now immigration officials are really in a different world. And they're much tougher. They really don't care. They're not, they're not sympathetic. And in fact, you know, they're, they're, they're out to throw people out of the country. That's their, you know, motivation. And then, of course, you have a, a skating down of the weapons, the tools, the kit bag that is available to the immigration lawyer. Now, how does that work? What are your favorite kit bag tools these days in order to try to help people? I think you hit the nail on the head there. There's definitely been a shift. And I think it did get very much exacerbated during the Trump era because the dialogue, there used to be a very healthy dialogue between the immigration bar, immigration lawyers and the different agencies within DHS, you know, US citizenship and immigration services, Press, EISN and CBP, and there were liaison groups, and we would meet on a, you know, regular basis and, and they'd answer questions and we'd have ability to pick up the phone and call those people. And during Trump shuttle, of that down. And it's, it's, you know, So the legacy of the Trump area is very, is Aira is particularly severe in law. It's going to be long lasting because it takes a long time try to undo a lot of what was done, to reduce civility and connection between immigration lawyers and the people working in the agencies. So, you know, I can now I have to appeal to the highest level.  But, you know, every time one of those very high level people that I have a good relationship with retires is like one less person right that I can go to. So, I use the threat of media attention in on a very regular basis in my practice. Because, you know, so often the ideas that some of these agents have but they would like to do shut down options for people. And the human consequences of their, you know, uncaring attitude and even disregard of the actual requirements under the policy and the law sometimes can only be countered with the threat of, you know, a big spread in the news about what the consequences would be. Right now I have a family I'm trying to help three kids. And unfortunately for them both their parents who were on the visas that we're keeping them here illegally both tragically died within a year of each other leaving some teenage kids three or often kids.  And it's called deferred action and it was, you know, give them a chance to get back on their feet and mourn and grieve and be with the community that they found. And if the government doesn't grant it. That's, that's going to be a story in the newspapers to try to make them do the right.  Sometimes you have to use that. But that works. And I guess, even in these difficult times. There is a readership, a readership out there who reads that media report, and who finds it objectionable. And would, you know, would would sympathize with, with the immigrant. Yes, yes, and you can galvanize a lot of public support, which can go a long way and I've done that a lot in my career. You know, leading campaigns of public support to try to help save an immigrant who deserves to be saved and not kicked out of the country. It's by case, it's case by case. And, you know, I had it, I think I described it in the epilogue of my book one of my partners served in the Bush administration at a very high level and a very key department executive agency of the federal government, American citizen, and he was traveling across the border between Mexico and Texas. And he observed customs and border protection officer mistreating the woman in line in front of him, and he spoke up for the woman and he said to the guy, you really should speak to people in a nicer way you're representing the United States through the first, you know, base of the US that anyone sees and you know you should treat everyone with kindness and respect. And the guy took my, my partner was a senior partner in a corporate law firm and he took him into secondary inspection he said, you can't talk to me like that and he stripped them of his global entry.  And my partner is a powerful guy, a very powerful lawyer, and CBP, this, you know, basically, you know, took this, this, this right that he had, which he was entitled to which he had earned and applied for under legitimate process took it away in a second. He would think something like that would happen and throw third world country right, not in the United States though, fortunately for this guy I mean he knew me and I was able to go to the head of the global, you know, global entry department in Washington DC and they were horrified that it happened, but and it took still it took like four to six weeks to overturn the denial and get it reinstated.  You just fall it out when you see it that's the thing that's really you got to talk truth to power, and fairness and equity to power. And you know it's a great concern to me, I'm going to turn this over to Chang now is that over time, these stories have a way of permeating the global environment, and where we used to see the Statue of Liberty and all that it stood for. And now we see this this hard nose, grossly unfair immigration service that that almost enjoys dumping on people. This is very troubling not only to the people involved and to right thinking citizens but to the whole world. Our image has been tarnished by the emergence of these new strains you're talking about, or old strains concurrent. Let me go to Chang Chang I know you have questions so I'm turning this witness over to you. Remember two years ago I interviewed you for BBC article on immigration, and you talked about the immigration status at that time. And at that time was a very not very promising because a year ago Donald Trump and nutrition just removed, rewrote the entire United States citizenship and location services to SCF emissions. In the original mission statement agents to SCF or serving a nation of immigrants. And at USAF removed that sentence. That sentence is not simply it's body, it's a very large implication. The good news is recently SCF reporting that USAF leadership is asking all the employees to describe the immigration agency's mission is three words to help them to rewrite the mission. Now to reworking back to the original but to a new mission statement, if you were USAF officer, so what words did you like? Yeah, it's, it was horrifying to me when that happened. And the saddest thing is that I know the guy who ended up rewriting the mission statement I was very disappointed in him. And when he did that, because they took away the reference to the nation of immigrants and they also took out the word customer. And you know, they just don't. And like Jay was saying, the removal of terms that can out respect just is is you know an indicator of a lack of caring and lack of concern and a lack of respect for immigrants. And that changing of the mission statement was a reflection of an America first very nativist sort of orientation around immigration. But the United States always will be a nation of immigrants. I mean right now, there's 43 million people in the United States that were born in another country. We are a nation of immigrants, and we must always be a nation of immigrants. So the way I would rewrite the mission statement, I would, I don't think three words are enough. I don't think you can rewrite the mission statement with just three words but I would think maybe maybe two or three sentences. And if it were up to me, it would be something like that US CIS is committed to ensuring that the United States remains a nation of immigrants, and to providing immigration benefits fairly with transparency equal access to all. And, you know, in, in an equitable manner, and efficiently, efficiently. It was do concern for human values. And, and, you know, there's so much inefficiency and in the system and it's there's so much carelessness in the system so I think then mission statement needs to reflect an attitude that immigrants are people to they deserve any of us could be in a heartbeat. In a situation where an immigrant to another country, you have to put ourselves in other people's shoes it really has to come down to almost like a biblical notion. You know, do unto others as you would wish people would do to, you know, to and for you like be treat other people the way you would want to be treated. And that's kind of simplistic for the mission statement so I would use some of the other language that I gave you, you know, but efficiency is a problem like things are taking forever now to get approved and employment authorization cards went from 90 days free Trump. Now, even with Biden as presidents, having a lot of trouble getting the processing times back to normal amounts of time where people can live with. In a few days it's like eight to 10 months to get an employment card now you know citizenship applications are taking a year and a half used to take, you know, five to six months. Why is that Susan it sounds like a culture point within the immigration service that it sounds like, you know, a change in attitude. It's, I think it's a perfect storm between, you know, the legacy of the Trump area where, you know, they took a lot of people out of service, and then cove it hit. And then the, you know, the back legs grew exponentially as due to the combination of both of those things, but providing more officers to the different adjudication lines is really really important but not charging people more people pay enough for these applications. Not paying enough that they should get efficient and not careless service from the government, and they deserve it. Okay. Great. Well, I'm, you know, Susan, you know, talk about immigration reform now it's more complex than when my buddy served as counsel for the House immigration committee.  And I wonder, you know, how the president in a right thinking administration could fix that because it sounds to me like there are people that populate the ranks, including high ranks in the immigration service that are perpetuating, there's very serious human rights problems there, and the failure to abide by the law failure to follow the rule of law is what we have. And there are a lot of officers in the immigration service, who need to be reminded of that. So what, what does the president do what can the president do. What should the president do. The president sets the tone for the, for the service for the Department of Homeland Security and for the country, and president can actually do a lot it's you know I think Biden has good intentions, but there's so many things that have to be fixed it that his is being divided, but there's some easy fixes, easy things that he could do. For example, why is it the case that every time someone applies for an immigration benefit, they have to get their fingerprints taken again, and again, and again. The people's fingerprints to change over time. No, one fingerprinting is enough to run any number of background checks over the number of years that someone has applications pending. And it takes so much longer to process those fingerprints than it used to, and the background checks have slowed down and so that's one of the reasons why things you know all these applications are taking so long so you should never make anyone get more than once easy. Why do we need to have in person interviews for a lot of immigration benefits when everything's already been vetted behind the scenes through security checks and the information has been reviewed. Used to be that we didn't need in person interviews and then Biden came along and reinstated in person interviews and the Trump and I mean that Trump did that and Biden hasn't changed it back yet but that's something easy. He could direct the officers to adjudicate the cases on the papers, and for the most part, except where there's a concern about fraud or a problem, and they want to interview the person, you know, sitting down in an office but most of the time, benefits can be adjudicated without an interview. The same thing can happen outside the country at embassies and consulates, you know, especially for, you know, renewals of someone's visa where they've already been approved once. There really shouldn't be a need to make people to go back in person to an embassy and those backlogs are like up to a year now year and a half in some countries because of COVID delays. Just apply for a visitor visa in some countries, he's got to wait a year to get an appointment.  You know, but you don't you shouldn't need to go in person for a lot of these things, but that's something he could do. I think training for the officers I think would be really important. And some of us me included are advocating that there should be some kind of a pilot program where there's watchdogs at the airports and the borders, keeping an eye on the transactions that are happening between the CBP officers and people coming across someone looking over their shoulder to make them do the right things that they don't abuse their power. It can become quite power hungry when no one is looking and that's when a lot of bad abuses happen. We need to have some kind of a pilot program to institute some kind of monitoring of that. But what about monitoring for, you know, meanness and, you know, inappropriate actions on applications and exercise of rampant power just for the sake of being mean and all that. And an attitudinal problem that surfaced and was exacerbated while Trump was in office, which he welcomed which he encouraged. Can't we go the other way on that and say look you're going to be rated on how, how kind you are, you can be rated on, and whether you stand for the principles of this country or not. And if you don't, your career will be affected your promotion will be affected, and you may lose your job. We need sanctions in order to reverse the attitudinal decline. What do you think? I think it's a really interesting idea, Jay. I think in practice, it's going to be difficult to achieve that because, you know, there are a lot of officers who are embedded in the agencies that don't feel the same way that you do, and I do. So it's going to take a long time to transition people out and bring in new fresh faces and people who believe in those principles to enforce those kinds of actions. So it's kind of come from the top, you know, if your boss does looks the other way, nothing is going to happen. So, you know, we need to hold them accountable and thinking a variety of ways, not just internally inside the agencies because you don't really trust that it's always going to happen the right way. But those of us who are watching, we need to be vocal, we need to call out problems when we see them we need to write op eds and newspaper articles on, you know, blog posts to show the world when things go wrong and shame people into, you know, being better, treating people with the respect and dignity that they deserve, because otherwise, it's just going to keep spiraling down and getting worse. So, you know, those of us who are immigration lawyers and, you know, in the business of representing clients through the immigration practice, we all have an obligation to take it a step further for people when we need to. And that's what I do when I see it I go to the district director, and the district director in any city, you know, oftentimes has the same ideals that I do, and is horrified when he or she hears that one of the officers has acted out of line. But there's sometimes a big disconnect, you know, so they need to treat a lot of internal trainings and I think sensitivity training is very important. It's going to happen. I can't tell you if it's really going to happen that way. After all that we've said and what I've heard from other immigration lawyers is that it's harder to practice immigration law these days, because of the resistance you get to a clear case which you know you feel legally is a clear case. And the immigration service through these personnel are likely to reject that notion and make it as hard as they can for you. And of course, you know, the human rights issues on the border and all that is harder to represent these people and also these people don't have a lot of money. They never had a lot of money coming into Ellis Island, you know, they might have had $5. And now, same $5. The question I put to you is, do immigration lawyers these days make any money. Are you making any money. Can you get rich being an immigration lawyer, or is it all for love. That's a good question I'm going to choose not to answer, but I, I have to say that I, I can't imagine have had having had a more fulfilling career than the one I've had, helping people, you know, to, to actually achieve their American dreams no matter how hard the process sometimes is I can't imagine any more fulfilling or rewarding no matter how hard it is. I'm making a difference in someone's life oftentimes a difference between life and death, and that it's just a privilege for me. It's a privilege for me to, to meet all my clients from all parts of the world. So many interesting places and their cultures are fascinating I learn and gain so much from them, and they're making the country so much better in a palpable way and I'm so proud of them and I feel so lucky that they're my clients, you know, most of my clients I just absolutely love, and, and I want the world to see how immigrant by immigrant and person by person. These people are making our country great. And I, for one, couldn't be more proud of that. Well, we couldn't be more proud of you. What you are doing is national service. Thank you. So, can you summarize and, and thanks Susan and pose the show. Absolutely. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you so much. So, I had to recommend everybody read journey from zero here. You just read these stories. You'll be proud to be American. And you feel pain and suffering. And may you also enjoy and celebrate with the immigrant. I'm a immigrant. And may I quote Senator Obama. And when I read my review of Susan Bocca, I am.  Who still wonder if the dream of our founders is live our time. Who still question whether America is a nation of immigrants. Susan Collins book. From there to here. If you will answer. I want to thank you so so again and feel for all you wonderful work. And for the help of the immigrant. For all the work working with the ACLU and the car and all these charities. And you are on my role model. I know it's very hard to be, it's almost impossible to achieve your level. I'm a lawyer and immigrant attorney. And with also immigrant who teach artificial law and immigration law. And I just learned so much from all of you parties. You just valuable advice. And the J you are always my role model. One year. The love and the passion you are. And the love and the passion. And the passion that you are. And the love and the passion that you are. What really, you know, by the journalism and the help. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you, Susan. Thank you for my great discussion. And a pleasure. Thank you. Same here. Bye.


In this session we shall talk about mass casualty incidents. A mass casualty incident is any incident where the number of injured overhwilms the capabilities of the first arriving teams. They usually involve trauma but could be acute radiation, biological weapons or poisoning from alcohol. It could be bomb blasts, it could be transportation crashes. They can involve road traffic injuries, collapsed buildings which are common every day. Three things are particularly important in lessening injuries and deaths in mass casualty incidents. One is immediate search and rapid triage. Two immediate first aid treatment. And three transport to the nearest medical center. Read the story on the bus collision. What things went wrong in that scenario? At the incident it is important to be composed. Search and rescue should be done methodically. Stop, look, listen and think and call for help. Choose a team leader. Usually security personnel are needed to secure the incident site. Zone one or ground zero as it is commonly called. Wear protected gadgets including gloves and helmets. Select a medical incident commander to manage, triage, treatment and transport the three T's. These are very important in mass casualty incidents. Triaging, treatment and transport patients. Some ambulances are able to sustain lives that require advanced support. Call for an ambulance. Triage is a French term meaning pick and sort or select and categorize. It involves classifying victims in order to assign priorities for medical care and transportation. Agency of the case handling to increase victims' likelihood of survival. The aim is to provide the greatest good for the greatest number of people injured. Triage categories. Triage uses agreed colors to communicate among the personnel. Triage ribuns of cards can be used, although in resource constrained countries we may use other calling systems. It tells the intervention teams the priority level would reach to handle each affected person. This is an example of a color coded triage card. Triage categories include those injured or affected persons that need immediate care, those that need delayed care, those that need minor care and those that can be classified as deceased. The red coded are the first priority at the mass casualty incident site. Immediate care should be stated. They have a compromised airway or are in shock and need immediate resuscitation. The yellow coded are the second priority. If immediate care is needed, they can deteriorate to red category in a short time. They are in impending shock. The green coded are the third category and include all walking wounded. Care can come later. However, they need monitoring for any sign of deterioration. The black coded are either dead or hopelessly wounded. The priority time and resources concentrate on those that can be served. How to triage? Begin by assessing all non-moving patients wherever they lie. Use start triage. Start meaning simple triage and rapid treatment. Where treatment here refers to first aid treatment and follow-up treatment. Triage can be performed by any individual including non-health workers. Because of scarcity of manpower, all who can should participate in triage. Triage techniques will consider three main aspects. Respiration, blood circulation and consciousness. Under respiration we check, are they breathing? If they are breathing, what are the breaks per minute? These are important criteria that may make us decide whether someone needs immediate care or delayed care. Under blood circulation we look, is there a pulse? And even if there is a pulse or if there is no pulse, how is the perfusion of blood into the tissues? Three, consciousness. Are they conscious?  All these three areas of assessment should take less than one minute per patient checking for respiration. If there is no respiration or if they are not breathing, open the airway and clear the airway by stretching the neck and clearing anything that may be in the mouth. If there is still none, label as black. If the respiration is restored, label as red. If the respiration was initially present, then their breathing rate is above 30 breaks per minute or visibly fast breathing label as red. However, if the breathing rate is below 30 and they were initially breathing, then go to the next stage of assessment and that is the circulation or the perfusion. Blood circulation is the same as perfusion. Check if the radiopulse is present and if it is not present or the capillary refill is greater than two seconds label as red. If the radiopulse is present and normal or the capillary refill is less than two seconds, then that means the circulation is okay. And for such patients, if they passed the respiration test and they have also passed the circulation test, we need to check the mental status. If in the mental status they cannot follow simple commands, then they are unconscious or have an altered level of consciousness. These are labeled as red. If they can follow simple commands and they have passed all previous tests, that is respiration and saturation, then label as yellow if they are unable to walk or green if they are walking. This is the summary algorithm. Take time to look at it in summary. Triage is the single most important decision involving management of mass casualty incidents.  However, after the triage, the triage teams need to hand over the serious cases to the first aid treatment teams. And later on, we shall look in another session, we shall look at first aid treatment. Medico facilities are encouraged to develop mass casualty plans for their facilities based on operating capacity and resources. District committees and local authorities should identify key players in search and rescue and in first aid. Thanks for listening.


Hi, my name is Russell Long and we're at AWE 2023 and at this booth we're showing off our 2D imaging sensors for AR and VR use cases and Here we have two of our reference modules that we've done with our partner Exavizio This module is an AR headset that uses three of our imaging sensors Two of these sensors are our 1.6 megapixel camera, which is the VD-56 G3 and one of these is our 0.4 megapixel camera the VD-55 G0 the two the two stereo cameras are used with our STI mu to figure out the head positioning of our of the user and The 0.4 megapixel camera is used to find the user's hand position and posture the other demo module that we have is our standalone slam module using two of our 1.6 megapixel cameras, we're able to find the position of the of the module as it moves around in space and using our SD imagers we can enable and bring AR and VR to the next generation


The Pikeville City Police Department got a complaint and as part of that complaint they looked at the miner's phone and they also looked at Darren Belcher's phone and they saw that he had been sending messages to this miner trying to Get the miner to engage in sexual activity and he was actually offering money for that The age of the miner is less than 16 and so this is a pretty serious charge It's a class defel and it does carry prison time and the important thing about this The sexual activities do not have to take place for this crime to be complete. The statute is very clear That merely soliciting this type of activity over electronic means is the crime is the crime


Спасибо, мистер Чемен, за интервью. Я Сергей Калужней. Я еще профессор Московской Университеты. Но 4 года назад я был пригласен к новому компанию, которая называется «Руснана». Это совершенно новая история для России. Конечно, я был более-менее сэффициентным профессором, и я никогда не думал идти к бизнесу, но проект был так тяжелый, так уникальный, что я решил вернуть шапу в мою жизнь. Поэтому я буду говорить о коммерциализации. Это очень-очень светлый свет. Это очень светлый свет. Поэтому я буду говорить о коммерциализации нанно-технологий России. Я буду жить здесь, это лучше. Продолжение от Руснана. Во-первых, я должен заметить, что очень часто у нас есть notion, что research and innovation are something similar. В принципе, это не. Innovation is an economic category, and a simple definition, which we used in Rusnana. It is that what is the difference between research and innovation. So research is a generation of knowledge by putting money inside. And innovation is opposite. It is using knowledge to generate money. With this slogan, we started to do our activity. And the whole story started in the middle of the last century, in the middle of last decade, when the Russian government after a stable period of growth decided that okay, we are oil producing country, we have enough money, but oil is not forever, so what to do? And fortunately, they decided that okay, it's necessary to do something different, and they decided to create such kind of endeavor to make a commercialization of knowledge. It was created Russian Corporation of Nanotechnologies in 2007, and the main mission was to develop, so called nano-industry in Russia. And for this, they delivered to us quite huge amount of money. It is 3.5 billion as assets of Russian Federation, and also they gave us a guarantee for 4.3 billion euros. State guarantees, so we can take money from the banks. And the initial concept was that it should be located in two pillars. So one pillar, it is investment project, it is business, and second one, it is development of overall infrastructure. But such animal was not very viable, because very different, very different goals for investment is necessary to have a profitable investment, etc. For institute of development it is necessary to have some other criteria of success. And last year it was decided to split up such unknown animal into two organizations. Stock company Rusnano, from there I am, and non-profit organization responsible for infrastructure. And during this 4 years we have developed into quite a big holding, including so core organization, which is a stock company, non-profit organization for development of infrastructure, education, etc. Also we have some subsidiaries, already like meteorological center, like some subsidiaries in the States, in Israel, and Rusnano capital, which is located at least juridically in Luxembourg, so link it to Europe, and some other organization. And we have, of course, quite a lot of our portfolio companies, where we use minor shares usually. Also we have created several venture funds as additional instrument for investment, we have created 12 nano centers. Nano centers, in terms of Rusnano, it is not just equipment. In fact it is a fabric for production of new businesses. So our nano centers are equipped by a small technological equipment to help to assist startup companies to make prototype, to make a small series, demonstration series of products, etc. So by idea it is a fabric of generation of new businesses. And of course we cannot cover all nano industry of Russia, so we are surrounded by another independent producers of nano products. And generally our activity can be depicted as in this slide, so we put a lot of money also in development of infrastructure, first of all technological infrastructure for new startup companies. Then we put some money in popularization of nano technologies because it is in many cases not very known area, so we try to make it sexy, as it was told during last two days in these conferences. Also we put some money in education in preparation of new programs to make a requalification of engineers and scientists to these new areas. Very important field for us is standardization, because in Russia we have old Soviet standards and they are delayed, so we are doing a lot in harmonization of our standards with ISO standards. The last but not the least, it is a special activity for stimulation of demand for any innovation production including nano technology production. It is very important to have a demand from the industry, from customers, etc. So we put a special attention to develop such activity because we have to make to increase the awareness of the people about new products and also we have to stimulate in some way. For example in Russia it is banned to use ordinary lamps, ordinary bulbs in order to promote this LED lighting, etc. But our co-activity is investment project, so further on I will tell mainly about our co-activity. So this co-activity has two very simple but very difficult to achieve criteria. So taking all this money, taking very good personnel, very good team, I suppose we should achieve the total revenue of Russian nano industry by the year of 2015 something like 22.5 billion euros including 7.5 billion euros of revenue of companies created by participation of Rusnano. And if we will be successful it can create up to 150 additional new places in this industry. Many people telling to us that mission is impossible, but at least we are doing all our best to achieve at least 7.5 with our companies. So for this we open applications from anywhere in the world and starting from the 1st of April of 2008 we have received more than 2400 applications. We have a quite tough selection procedure, it includes scientific and technical expertise for which I am responsible and also business expertise, investment expertise, etc. So finally we have approved more than 100 projects for financing, already finance, I mean investment project 86, but also we are financing, as I told before, some venture funds, some nano centers, etc. And if we look on this total investment we can state that we have already invested something like 6 billion euros of Rusnano money but the rest around 8.5 billion, it was invested by coin investors, it was the main point that we should not invest only state money, we should invest also private money. I heard here a lot about PPP, this can be an example of such a public-private partnership in our project. And Russia may be a big country with regard to territory, but not a big country with regard to finance and human resources. So we have selected 5 priority areas in the field of nano industry. First of all it is energy efficiency and clean tech, then optics and electronics, nano materials of course, coatings and modification of surface and the last but not the least it is medicine and pharmaceuticals. So as can you see from our finance project, the majority is from nano material, it is usual for all of the world. And also we are global company, we accept application not only from Russia, we accept application from many countries in the world and here you can see that we have received something like 400 applications, 400 applications and majority of course from the USA, they are very active in business, in commercialization, but Europe is on the second place and from Europe the leader is Germany and on the bottom graph you can see distribution of the project which are under financing, so it is finance project between different countries. So you can see that here also we have USA as a leader. So and if we look on distribution of these foreign projects, we can see that the distribution is different. The leaders are optics and electronics and medicine and pharmaceuticals because it is the most delayed areas in Russia. So and especially for medicine and pharmaceuticals we can see the investment in such project as our social responsibility so we are paying a lot of attention on this area. Then I would like to tell that not only investing money we have constructed already and commissioned 20 new plans and by the end of this year it will be 30, so it is real industry appears. So and I would like to give you just few examples with foreign collaboration. I will not tell about Russian internal project, only foreign project, some example. First of all this laser industry, as you know Russia together with USA were pioneers in development of lasers, but as usually in Russia after invention then somebody else will make a commercialization but in this case fiber lasers were commercialized by the Russian professor Gaponsev then he moved to States to create very famous company world leader IPG Photonics and we were happy that we were able to convince him to return back at least some facilities to Russia. A new plan will be commissioned in the end of this year in Friazino, Moscow region. Another example also of this transfer back technology it is from these so called vertically integrated lasers. They can be very useful in IT industry. Also invention was in Russia. Also during 90s it was difficult time in Russia scientists Professor Ledinsov moved to Germany created company with this name Six Systems Samsung and then we did significant efforts to return such technology to Saint Petersburg to Russia. Another example it is without Russian insider influence. It is a French company Crocus. They develop a magnet resistive memory. It is very useful memory because it is energy independent in many applications it is necessary. We hope that such type of memory will be a good competitor for existing flash memory and the plant. I hope the first plant of magnet resistive memory in the world will be constructed in Russia in two years but maybe somebody else will compete as well. It is very competitive area. Next project it is about coatings. It is the effect of such a conference like industrial technologies. I went for years ago to Finland for Finland nano and Pekka Kopenin did a first contact with this company Benek who is a pioneer in atomic layer deposition method. So finally after tough discussion after tough negotiations we became an investor in this company and such type of coatings, very precise atomic layer coatings can be applicable in solar industry, in some other etc. I hope that from business perspective it will be a successful project. This is a big project with a world leader in energy efficient glasses. We speak in English company owned by Japanese. But the point is Russia is very cold country and we have extremely high heat losses because of not very good glasses, not very good isolation etc. So we can see that such a project is very important for Russia. Also we have quite a big market because the construction industry developing in Russia very good. The people want to have new flats, new houses, new offices etc. So we can see that from business perspective such a transfer technology to Russia will be useful not only from technical point of view but also from economical point of view. And another example, it is our collaboration with our eastern neighbor with China. So we created a project with Chinese company SanderSky and last December we have commissioned the biggest in the world plant in Novosibirsk of lithium-iron batteries, lithium-iron phosphate. And this plant is really huge, it will under full capacity it will produce something like 400 million ampere hours per year and this plant will serve as a catalyst of implementation of electric transport in Russia. For example in Moscow now we have a program of testing of 100 electric buses to decrease environmental pollution in Moscow because Moscow is a mega police, a lot of traffic, a lot of pollution. Hope the project also will be successful. And last two examples, it is related to medicine. We are interested in pharmaceuticals, only in advanced pharmaceuticals. We are not interested in generics. So this is a very advanced drug delivery. For example it is a venture project, it is a project from MIT Massachusetts Institute of Technologies and it is very unique platform, it is self-assembling platform made of biodegradable polymers like polylactic acid, polyethylene glycol etc. And active pharmaceutical substance can be put inside and you can control delivery and you can control release etc. This will be mainly used for cancer diseases but also from this platform with a little bit another modification and with another American startup selector we can create a new generation of vaccines. So I will finish with my examples. I would like to tell in the end that Rusnana is open for any good applications and for technology owners we invite to relocate their facilities in Russia. We can create good business conditions and also for financial and strategic investors. We invite them to share risk together with us to develop a new nana industry. Thank you very much for your attention. So welcome to you.


Imam Malik the founder of that school when he was a young kid.  He wanted to be a singer and One of the things that when he went to his mother his mother gave him advice But look at the advice she gave him She said if you choose the path of being a singer as you grow older Your voice won't be as good and your looks you'll start you lose the handsomeness of your youth But your good voice and your handsomeness. That's what is looked for in a singer's career So as you grow older and your face changes and your voice is changing your music career is going to go down But if you choose the path of it as you grow older and your face grows older with age You will actually increase people's respect for you will increase and Now we have Imam Malik in the school of Medina and the hadith that he preserved


Meditation is something I've heard is amazing and I didn't realize it probably until like a month ago that I'm sort of doing that on my own whereas I get in a steam room, no phone, no music, no nothing and I have to concentrate on my breathing and I found that to be one of the best 10 to 15 minutes every day and you just re-energize because you needed that.


Mosquitoes are attracted to certain chemicals found in human sweat and skin bacteria, which can lead to increased risk of spreading diseases. Researchers have identified a specific type of receptor in mosquitoes that is activated by these chemicals, providing a potential target for developing new mosquito control methods.

Name another podcast like this. Check it, check it, check it. It's a unique hustle. It's your boy, E-C-E-O, and I'm here with the lovely, amazing official, Mr. Mako. What's going on? Nothing, I need to know my dad. Man, man, man. I'm here, man. This guy right here, man. Last time he's on the show, it, man, there was a few things that happened that I didn't know were gonna go crazy. It just went crazy on the internet, man.  And I look and they say, oh, he said this? And I was like, man, I never would have thought that a couple of you were just talking, man. My God, man, my friend. Ayatollah Marv is in the building. What's going on? Reveley, Reveley, Reveley, Reveley, Reveley, Reveley, Reveley, Reveley, Reveley, Reveley, Reveley, Reveley. Man, thank you for coming back on the show. Yes, sir, I appreciate it. Man, you and, and I hear all kinds of stuff, man. I heard some threats. I'd heard one guy had threatened, I thought it was on Clubhouse, a guy threatened to jump on you or something. Oh, that's, that's, that's saying that on Clubhouse, man. And I said, he was going to knock me out. What?  No, I don't even know. I don't know what Clubhouse, Mickey Mouse is Clubhouse, man. How did you end up even hearing about this?  And I'm like, how that's going to happen? Like, who do that? He's just going to walk up to you and just knock you out. Just knock me out. So I was, you know, I'm like, okay. Does he live up there with you? Huh? Does he live in LA as well? Man, lives 60 miles away. He ain't, he ain't been in California and Compton in his life, unescorted. Oh. He's, he's just talking. And so yeah, I heard about it. How did the conversation go? Do you got it out? The conversation went like, I don't, he said that I was, well, I was on Adam 22. Okay. And Adam 22 asked me, was he from, was he a pyro? And I said that he wasn't from Compton. So this happened after your interview with Adam 22? No, right. After? Yeah, that's what he said. Okay. Let me show you, let me show you what he said. So this happened the other day. This, wait a minute. So we ain't. So, okay. Nigga, you don't. Have I ever said I ran pyro? Yeah, sir, you indicated that. Well, I do. That's me.  Motherfuckers, I don't know you. And I say he's not from Compton. Fuck, I said, what did I say all over the state that you, I think that you run pyro? Nigga, you don't. What's the point, bro? That's what happened if you don't. I'm curious, how did that call happen? Huh? That's Reggie Wright. Reggie Wright, Jr., put me on the phone with him. And this happened how long after? This is how it just happened Sunday. Oh, this is Sunday. This just happened. Okay. He had been, because he's, after he said. And this was because of what he said on Clubhouse. After that. That's when he said he was gonna knock me out. So when he said he was gonna knock me out. Oh, that was your response to him. Uh-huh. This is across the street from where the sugar ran over. It's a town. This is a garage. Wow. You can still throw hands? Huh? Can you still throw hands? What? Well, I do this. Wow. Let me ask you, man. So this here, this happens just so fast because they go on to the no jumper show.  He jumps on Clubhouse after it comes out. Say 72 year old man, I don't know this nigga. No, he said he don't know me. But let me show you.  We was so and so and so. He said he don't know you. He said, I don't know nothing about it. He came to some event last year, 18 months ago. And this one, one of my partners, his son was running for mayor. And I was there. He was invited, right? Let me see that. So this is 2015. This is game doing a video with Drake. Okay. Okay. This is Waco right here. That's from the West side. That's Waco 100 right there. Acting timid. Here is another, with pictures smiling. Man. Okay. This is white boy Rob's son right here. He's from Cedar Block. Him and game get into an argument. If you look, you see you have a gun, right? When Waco 100 seen the gun, he took, man, he got a gun. Him and Drake went to the back.  So he ain't doing, he wasn't doing none of that. None of that. So this man say he gonna knock me out.   I just wanna see how that work. He thinking because you're older. So he can look you. All right, but I haven't been, I've been gang banging since 1959. I've been in every major state prison in California.  I'm the aggressor. I am not, I'm the predator. I'm not the prey. Right. I'm active. I walk these streets every day. I don't hide. I'm not in Dubai. I'm not in Al Capoco somewhere. I went to his hood. He came in, he grew up in Pocomba, but he can't represent. So wait a minute. That was where you just, was that when you took that, took the. Yes. You was in his hood. Yeah. And you say that's where I shook night down. What? No, no. Where that was, that was in Compton where shook night ran over our homeboy Terry Carter. That's 142nd. Okay. But you went to his hood as well. I went to his hood. He wasn't nowhere to be found. And nobody, you can't be there with his own homeboys. They don't even own him there. All that talk. They talked to mess him up. So he can't be in there. Now he didn't put a bag down. He said he was going to knock me out.  He going to hire somebody. He ain't going to do it himself. Yeah. He said, you going to die, nigga. So repeat again why he said he wanted to knock you out in the first place.  I went on Adam 22. They asked me, was he from, was he a pyro? Right. And I said he wasn't from Compton. So you're really not answering the question if he was a pyro or not. It's just the fact that he's not from Compton because there are other pyros. A pyro says. All around the world. The dudes from Pacoima, they say on Pacoima. Right. Dudes from Skyline said on Skyline. But they're still pyroo. They're still pyroos, but they claim they hood. Right. So how you going to be the national spokesman for the pyroo card? Nobody assigned you to do this. So you just on pyroo, on pyroo. Just running your mouth. You supposed to be on your set wherever you're from. Whatever your set is from. Okay, I got you. You know? So it, nobody's standing on it. It's just like dudes tell me all the time.  More of you should have got up and slept that nigga. But you could have caught a plane and came out here too. And did it yourself. So you in Compton telling me man, you're married, why didn't you slept that nigga? Why didn't you come with me? Right. So everybody have their own view of what should have happened. But didn't nobody take arms up.  You ain't wouldn't seen him.  But if he buy you a car or something, you're rolling with him. So it's not like he ain't got a bag that can have me killed. But I don't think no pyroo gonna do it. Right. And some of my homies the other day just hit me some crib probably. Man, what's happening with that? What we need to do. This is all media entertainment.  So, and I hate to even leave that subject, but last time you was on here, you was talking about people who were in the entertainment field and Chris Brown name came up and he, it was a rebuttal cause he said something on, it was on drink champs on Nori's name channel. He said, I ain't clicking in. I ain't, you know, cause he basically felt away because it was like, man.  Yeah, you said it on mine. I'm just talking. Sometime you can just say, I have nothing bad to say about Chris. Right. He represented. And when I was saying that dudes come in the neighborhood and do this, I wasn't actually referring to him. You just used him as an example. Which he hasn't done, but it wasn't his fault that he didn't do anything. Nobody demanded him to do anything. He tried to deal with Fruit Town. He did. And yes. And they stole from him. So he disconnected himself from him. So you don't keep feeding me if I do you bad. Yeah. That's logical.  I think it's injustice. And that's for any hood that these dudes are claiming. And I could take you to Compton right now. And I couldn't take you to a black restaurant to eat. We don't have it in Compton. Wow. Why? Neskins took over. We gave it to him. Right, because. Well, I couldn't take you to a club so you could sit out and have a drink in Compton. The streets is rolled up like Mayberry at seven o'clock. If you're not going to the jack in the box, McDonald's or Taco Bell, you're not eating in Compton. Wow. That is crazy. And first black run city, West of Mississippi. How do we, how do we, how do we fix it? Start killing some of these politicians. Wow. Wow. We've had 14 mayors in the city of Compton. Was the first black run city west of the Mississippi's. And we don't have a Martin Luther King. Every state in the United States in the South is a Martin Luther King. But do you think it's a people's fault because they can go out here and vote all these people out and vote people that should be in there who to help? And these Negroes's vote, I remember one time Omar Bradley's father had passed, Groucho. And one of our statesmen, Reverend Fisher, was officiating the funeral, right? And he was talking about Groucho and Groucho's life and he was talking about the kids, don't cry for Groucho. He said, let me tell you this story. He said he had this gardener, this Mexican gardener was a good gardener. And he came home one day and his wife said, kill, like, fire him. He gotta get out of here, fire the gardener. She said, he cut my prized roses. I love these roses. And he didn't cut them and put them in a bundle and fire him. When Jose come, he say, Jose, man, I like you, but I gotta live with my wife.  He said, you cut her prized, he says, Reverend Fisher, the flowers had got their full bloom and they were taking up the sun so the buds couldn't drop. All of these old cones is not letting the buds flow. So the young kids have nothing to do with nothing and we steadily smashing them down, sucking up all, we need to get a campaign. And every morning, these old people, we need to shoot them all, get them out of the way. I gotta ask you about that jacket you got on Deffro. I love it, love the fact that you got it on, but you go so far back with chug and just the interactions that you guys had when that whole thing was on the rise, that campaign was going. There was a lot of money involved. It was a lot, they needed security and all kind of stuff. How did you end up linking with chug night? Actually, when I first got out of prison, we were over at Newtas Park and chug and Jewel Lim came with the idea and he was like, man, you ain't banging, get out the park. And he said, man, I'm trying to start Deffro.  So they started a little campaign. I was in Ironwood in 1994. I hear Deffro was popping.  They all got Deffro chains on and Acura legends and doing this and that. And I'm like, man, come on, get with the rope. But I've never gone alone to get along. So I never made a dime with chug. I never made one penny with him. Nothing. And so when he did his thing, they went to the pinnacle. I was on the set with Park in gridlock. Then she was brought on Reggie Wright Jr. as a security.  We got out and it went on and the untimely demise and everything started going down. By 1999, Deffro was finished. So she'll start going through his heartbreaks, getting these bad deals and not knowing how to replenish yourself. So now that Snoop has bought the, bought the name Deffro. Correct. That's why I wanted to. So I feel it's a testimony to Compton. I mean, it was the biggest, biggest record corporation on the West Coast. Death row records out of straight out of Compton. Only thing bigger than that was in WA, but they never had the money. Deffro went to $147 million known all over the world. There's some of the most powerful music. And they say a money in full soon. The part. Yeah. No, you're exactly right.  Because it's Compton. You can't say Deffro without saying Compton. A dude was asking me the other day about one of the little homies. He got political on me and was talking about the nation of Islam and how the nation of Islam had Malcolm X killed. Right. And I said, well, first of all, you have incorrect information, but I wouldn't like that. Let's ask you this. Do you know Malika El-Hajjabaz? He said, no. Who is that? I said, when Malcolm left the nation of Islam, he became Malika El-Hajjabaz. He wasn't Malcolm X anymore. But the only way that you know anything about Malcolm X, he has to go to the nation of Islam. You have no benefits of Malcolm X today. No Malcolm X foundations. They don't have Malika El-Hajjabaz Boulevard in New York. They got Malcolm X Boulevard. And the Anubilaj Muhammad gave them that lane, just like, man, who knew us before Charleston White? Before we got on this platform, didn't nobody know me? Mm-mm.  So are you mad at Charleston?  I'll do everything but kiss him. You know? Yeah. So you have to give credit and credence to the people that built you. And that's what I'm about, and I think it's amazing. I did Dre Day for Dr. Dre. He's the first black billionaire out of Compton, California. So I did June 19th. Kids don't know what June 19th means. But now in Compton, June 19th, it's Dre Day. Wow, great. That's great. You feel what I'm saying? Yeah. So we have to be, oh, we all talk about when we were kings and queens, we don't know nothing about that. Let's deal with the winos and crikey as we used to be and go from there. Is there a story? I also, Whitney Houston, you knew her in person? I worked with Bobby Brown and Whitney Houston. How did you even link with Bobby Brown and Whitney Houston? Through Captain Shahid Muhammad, my captain in the nation of Islam. I worked with Barry Hankerson in Black Ground Records. What did you do for Bobby and Whitney? Just kind of security premises? Man, you know what would make it so cold? Grown people don't like me, but children do. Okay. And so Bobby Cristina, I didn't chase him. I had Bobby Cristina, Prensia, and little Bobby Jr. Wow. You dig what I'm saying? Because I don't mind going to the parks and the shows and the ones I'm spending your money. So then after they went back, Whitney is an amazing lady with all her insecurities. She's a Leo, a lion, a growling, but got a gang of insecurities. Wow. B Brown, he's a space cadet. Me and him born this day apart, Aquarians, right? So everything, they thought that once they got Whitney away from Bobby, that she would be all right, but she wasn't. She started messing with Ray J. And I wasn't there, but I understand Clyde Davis said, she worth more than me dead than she is alive. Wow. So mysteriously, she didn't took an overdose and drowned? So you don't believe that that was... Do you? I don't believe in the good tooth failure. Do you? I don't believe in the good tooth failure either. And I don't believe rabbit's legs. And then Bobby Christina turned around, started messing with a guy who was supposed to get $50 million. And she ended up a year later dead the same way I'm... The same way that tripped me out. It tripped you out, don't you think? That's suspicious. Wow. That's crazy, man. Crazy. But who would, who do you think did it? Who benefited from it? Clyde Davis got some billions with her catalog. He had all the insurance on her. I didn't do it. But what would he gain from her daughter? Because he didn't have to give her the $50 million. Yeah. Wow. That's something the way... So I'm just not... That's the story that I'm telling. The facts are the facts. And her family? So it wouldn't pass down to her family now? Like her mom and... Well, they show you how life is. Once all of this happened, and Bob knows a lot about the interactions of what happened. Right. Now they gave him a TV show and he's back on tour. And he's back with new addition. New addition didn't want to deal with it. Because they didn't like his attitude. But now you have to weigh what a success. You know, I heard a thing they said about Michael Jackson when Mike died. And they asked his family, do y'all want to go back to Ohio? They say he's from Ohio. What's Gary, Indiana? You got... That's one son gone. You don't want to lose everybody. So let it go. Wow. Man, you being in California, man. You know, it's a lot of scenarios out there. We just interviewed Kenya Ware. And she was telling us about the night when Tupac got killed and she was in Vegas and she was talking to her right before that. He was in Vegas that night? Yeah. So a lot of people say that she had something to do with it. I'm just telling you. Even being in the car. That's a scenario set up. But you say, well, have you been to Vegas? Yes, a lot of times. And on fight night at a Mike Tyson fight, Las Vegas Boulevard is packed. Right. Bumper to bumper. You got a trail car. You got police in the car and you got another car. California. Gay Vegas. We're territorial. We don't know your turf. Yeah.   How'd that sound? Wow. You was. I never thought about it. You was there. You was there in Vegas. Were you working with Mike Tyson then? You was. So how did you end up in that relationship with Mike Tyson for us? One of the other brothers, Lowe, had got canned and Captain Shahid Mohammed put me on that detail. One of the best details I've ever had. Mike is a genuine. I mean, he's one of the best people you could ever have. Why do you say that? He's a giver. He's a dude, the persona that you see around regular people. Man, he would give you anything you need. He'd come over to my mother's house and sleep on the couch. So he would come to your mother's house? Yeah. And so what would conversations be like with Mike Tyson back then? Well, we come from the same piece of cloth. He wasn't in prison. I was in prison. So he was a Muslim. We went to Juma prayer together, you know? And like I say, I'm not a go to along to get along. If I feel like something's supposed to be done, I'm going to say it. Like, bro, it's not a good look. Everybody else want to do what you want to do because you pay in the tab. That don't work with me. Else you don't need me. But Mike Tyson don't need no bodyguard. He can beat up every and anybody that comes his way alive. You see, I put it self because I can knock you out. You sue me. What you going to get? Some parole? Mike said hit you. He was going to sue him. You've seen him when he had a fight on the airplane. On the airplane, yeah. So he should have had you right by his side when that happened. Yeah, I blew that. Behind the situation, I talked about getting my house burglarized. And I went to the feds for a year. And so do you think you like Mike Tyson? He got a new show or podcast that he's doing, man. And he went off on Boosie on there. He doesn't say it's stirring things to a lot of people on there. Is that right? You got a podcast? He got a podcast, man. And he's doing his thing on there, too. I'm getting ready to get him on when I do this Potscrow Farms podcast. I only do a smoke on there all day. That's all you do. He would love your podcast. Yeah, he definitely would love your podcast, man. So, man, would you ever be willing to sit down with Wagg 100 and discuss, hey, man, solution or resolution? I just got to die, huh? You said it. Your word is bond. He could have checked this bag out. See him see this bag on there.  I seen that it wasn't, I hadn't heard that one. I just heard the first one where he had spoke on you on Club Out. The one you just shared, I hadn't heard that one. Did that happen over just a personal call? That's a personal call. He called his cell. He said, well, I got 30 minutes of tape on this nigga and don't make me pull it out. But at the same time I heard him clicking, I clicked, too. Wow, you'd be thinking. Yeah, you don't. Yeah, so, I mean, at the end of the day, I don't know if there ever is closure when it comes down to stuff like that. I mean, when you talk about killing somebody, knocking me out, okay, that's neither here nor there. I never took it to you like that. Because it was knocking you out on the Club House. I'm going to knock him out.  But after talking to you on the phone, it was, I'm going to put a bag on your head. Yeah. Where can we meet? He said, wherever we meet, you're going to die.  No, nigga, we're going to meet. Well, where can we go do this at? I'm going to show you what this bag going to do. Man, you did 20-some years in prison. 25. 25 years. I don't think that's the first time that somebody's tried to say they was going to do this or that to you, right? No.  Those stab wounds. You can pick a number, get in the line. A lot of people want me dead. Wow.  It ain't like you use somebody that people don't know. He finds that out after he speaks and say what he says. After. You see what I'm saying? Just like he's the West Coast Charleston White. Wow. Just tall. So you see him as Charleston White of the West Coast. That's the West Coast Charleston White. The exact same. He didn't ask for 147 phase and ain't fart nobody. Yeah. He didn't ask for what? 147 phase. Nigga, where you at? I'll pull up and he ain't fart nobody yet. Wow, man. Well, man, hey, man, thank you for coming on the show, man. It's been an honor and a pleasure, of course. A blessing, man, to have you back down here in Texas, man. It's Texas heat, man. They said it's big in Texas. Well, that ain't your first rodeo, man. So, hey, man, thank you so much for coming on the show. Appreciate you. Man, it's been another great segment of Boss Talk 101 with a Boss's Talk. And we out.


Hi and welcome to the session. Let us discuss the following question together which says find the degree measures corresponding to the following radian measures. And the fourth part is 7 pi upon 6. So, let us begin with the solution and we have to find the degree measure of 7 pi upon 6 radian. And since pi radian is equal to 180 degree, this implies 1 radian is equal to 180 degree upon pi. And therefore, 7 pi upon 6 radian will be equal to 180 degree upon pi into 7 pi upon 6, which is further equal to pi cancelled out with pi and 6 into 30 is 180 degree. So, we have 30 degrees into 7 which is equal to 210 degrees. And thus 7 pi upon 6 radians is equal to 210 degrees. So, this completes the solution. Hope you enjoyed it. Take care and have a good day.


Hey there friends, thanks for checking in. I want to talk about 30 Super Carry. It hit the ground running in early 2022 just this year. It made a lot of attention. A lot of people were buzzing about 30 Super Carry It's this new CCW round that's going to revolutionize the way we carry handguns and I started thinking about it Initially, I thought well, I think most people are satisfied with the current offerings 380, 9mm, 40, 45, 38 special, 357 Magnum, you name it People are already satisfied with that, but now there's 30 Super Carry and people say there are many there are many Advantages to 30 Super Carry So let's take a look at that and I want to give you my thoughts as to why I don't think 30 Super Carry is going to make it in the gun world. The first advantage is that It offers more rounds in the magazine and I think that's good The 30 Super Carry has a little bit of a longer case, but it's thinner and the bullet is just a little bit thinner So it does offer additional rounds in the magazine But my thought is that issue has already been addressed if you recall back about eight to ten years ago Single-stack nines were the rage. Everybody was going for a single-stack nine But then SIG and many other manufacturers came out with subcompact Double-stack mags started out with 10 rounds then it went to 12, 14, 15, 17 rounds in a mag So I think that area of additional mag capacity has already been addressed plus many people that carry They carry an additional mag. So most shooters or most CCW people are satisfied with their caliber offering Chambering whichever one they choose and they're satisfied with the availability of Mag capacities that are already out there. So in my mind that one's kind of a wash. They say it has decreased recoil from a nine millimeter Okay Nine millimeter is a pretty light load as it is. I never thought that nine millimeter needed a New chambering offering like 30 super carry to make it even less recoil people that think that nine millimeter is Heavy recoiling they typically would move to a 380 But they say it has less recoil I don't see it some of the people that shot them side-by-side the feedback I've gotten is that It's rather similar. All right. I'm not trying to bash 30 super carry It's just that when you say it has less recoil than nine millimeter That's to suggest that nine millimeter is a heavy recoiling round and it is just not the ballistic performance is pretty similar some will argue that the 30 super carry has greater ballistic performance. It travels an additional hundred feet per second Whatever happened to Shot placement is what's most important all right that That that has been verified so many times shot placement is more important than Penetration penetration is important. That's why a lot of people say hey be careful with 380, but Nonetheless, you know similar ballistic performance. It's not overwhelmingly better than nine millimeter Now some of the disadvantages in my opinion Outweigh the advantages if you look at the expense of it 30 super carry at this point is pretty expensive for a box of 50 You're looking at we're talking target loads here. You're looking at between 25 and 32 for a box of 50 That is double the cost of a box of nine millimeter And we've seen nine millimeter has dropped in price. You're looking at equivalent to a 45 acp Now it's going to be pretty tough to convince somebody who Is carrying 45 acp that they should switch over to 30 super carry when the ammo is essentially the same cost I said will you get more rounds in the magazine? They would argue well, I carry spare magazine So we're kind of leveling the playing field there Another thing and this is a big one. There are very few Handguns chambered in 30 super carry at this point. We look at smith. They have the shield plus And the shield easy, you know the real light rack one with the grip grip safety on there Those are chambered in 30 super carry I don't think many people who own a shield plus In nine millimeter is going to say well now that there's 30 super carry that I could pay More money for a box of 50 or a box of 20 self-defense loads that I'm going to put my nine millimeter away in Place for a 30 super carry. The advantage is not that much greater Another manufacturer nighthawk customs is making a 1911 in 30 super carry Every time I put out a nine millimeter 1911 someone saying that was meant to be in 45 acp now. That's that's what a 1911 is 45 acp now you're telling me I'm going to get one from nighthawk customs By the way, very expensive handgun specifically For 30 super carry. It just doesn't make that much sense to me So I don't think 30 super carry has Lasting power in the gun world. I just don't I don't think that there's a great desire for Additional rounds when that area has already been addressed. I don't think that a lighter load if it even is Then a nine millimeter Is going to persuade people to move over to 30 super carry and I don't think there are many guns Well, I know there aren't that are chambered in it now shot shows coming up a lot of these manufacturers are Developing and going to be introducing new models if there are a Plethora of new guns and 30 super carry and people get so excited that they have to get this and they're willing to pay an additional amount for the the boxes That carry 30 super carry then more benefit to them. I just don't see it I think if if Glock comes out with a 26 and 30 super carry, all right I may take notice but outside of that or many other offerings from different manufacturers I just don't see it. I don't think that it has Such a great advantage that it's going to persuade people away from nine away from 40 and 380 and all those others into a 30 super carry CCW and so I want to know your thoughts. What do you think? Is this just a phase going through that it's it's the new kid on the block and everybody is all excited For something that doesn't excite you at all or do you think that hey, this is something I really want I can't wait to go pick up a shield plus so I can chamber it in 30 super carry and get a couple additional rounds Therefore, I don't have to carry a spare magazine None of it really adds up to me now prove me wrong or say I'm right We'll see what comes out in the future and if the ammo drops a little bit and more guns come out Perhaps it'll have a future. But at this point, I just don't think it will I don't think 30 super carry is going to make it in the gun world If you like videos like this, please subscribe and share I always appreciate thumbs up button.

Hi everyone, Joe for jaspyscasebreaks.com coming at you with 2019, 2020, Panini, Donners, Optic Basketball, T-Mall Edition, Random Team Break Number 2. So this is the second of the three boxes. I just grabbed some random ones that we marked X right there. So this is the China edition that Panini made exclusively for T-Mall. There's an early bird special. So the first 20 get a shot at an extra spot. The early bird catches the worm. Let's roll it. Let's randomize it. Heart 8, 4-4, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6. After 8, we've got Carol and Mike. There you go. Extra spot for you. Thanks for being early birds. And now let's randomize the, let's randomize those teeth. Come on. Random number 12 times. I don't have time for 12. T-Mall apparently is an e-commerce site that's pretty big in China. All right. So there's 12 right there. Matthew down to Eastwood. Yeah. I think it's like Alibaba is like one of the big e-commerce sites in China. Not too familiar with it, but, and then T-Mall I think is another one. And 11. Nope. I got to do one more, right? Again, 12th and final time. There we go. We've got the Timberwolves down to the Knicks. All right. Matthew with the T-wolves and the Clippers fill with the Mavs. Daniel with the Spurs. Drew with the Bucks. Joe with the Trailblazers. Richard with the Pacers. Jimmy with the Cavs. Mike Fry's. Griz. Nice. Carol and Mike. You got the Kings. Teddy with the Thunder. Alan with the Nets. Carl with the Warriors. Jimmy with the Rockets. Jeremy with the Nuggets. And Mike. Mike, gee. Pelicans. Nice. Jimmy, you got the Heat. Carter with the Magic. Carol and Mike, your last, not your last spot, Mojo, but your early bird spot, Sons. Jeremy with the Jazz. Matthew with the Celtics. Gabe with the Raptors. Corey with the Hornets. Joe with the Wizards. Eric with the Hawks. Josh with the Bulls. Alan, last spot, Mojo. Sixers. Carol and Mike with the Pistons. Jacob with my Lakers. And Eastwood with New York Knicks. We're going to, no one's trading right now, we're going to, we're going to print and rip. We've got a couple, a few other breaks I got to do. We're already a little bit over, so we're going to hustle to the end here. The green X's that I marked in break number one. So you've got kind of the bluish thing right here. Here's what's exclusive. Everything's the same. It's printed here in the States. Everything's the same, except they add red and gold wave parallels in here. So that's what makes this, that's what makes this unique. Enough trash can space for the final breaks of the night. I know this is a basketball break, but, but. We're talking a little baseball in the chat. Who do you guys have winning the World Series? This is Darje. Will says, whoever, whichever team gets hot. I think so too. It's hard to wrap my head around like how to sort of handicap the season if you will, because you've got to, it's A, short season, B, what are teams motivations in the short season, you know.  You know, I want to, I'll kind of dog this season a little bit so I can be healthy for next season. You know what I mean? So it's going to be, it's going to be tricky, I think. Oh, there's some gold right there. Then it's like, yeah, who gets hot? Maybe younger, who has, who has maybe younger players, first, second year players that may be a little more interested in, in, you know, they don't have that free agent contract yet.  Maybe they want to ball out a little bit. And then you have a lot of teams playing their opposite division as well. So the, you know, the AL central is going to play each other. You know, obviously the AL central teams are going to play the AL central. They're also playing the NL central as well. Because Donovan Mitchell, Red Wave. So if you're the, if you're in the NL East, maybe you're thinking, dang, do you really want to see that, do you want to really see the Yankees and the, the Yankees and the Red Sox and the Toronto, and like a young Toronto team a couple of extra times, you know, maybe not. I might be not, that might not be something that you're interested in. Rays too. Rays are a good team. NL East has to not only face each other, but then a tough AL East. Nice Gold Wave, Joe Ingalls. So I mean, I think all of that makes it really difficult. Nice Gold Wave, Joe Ingalls for the Jazz. That's going to be for Jeremy Agno, Utah. So yeah, what's, yeah, Red Sox, Darcy says as a Red Sox fan, pitching is going to be weak. They're not going to be that good this year. There's Daniel Gafford. That's for the Bulls. That's going to be for Josh Mountain, Derek Rose, Pistons, that'll be for Carol and Mike. I didn't even bring out the print out here. Here's the final print out. C.J. McCollum. Ben saying the virus has ruined sports as we know it. Well, other countries seem to have gotten back on track. Let's leave it at that. Next box. Do we do card shows? We do. We have a card show every night, Ben. Welcome to the show. But no, we don't. I know what you're talking about, but we don't. When the national rolls around, we'll do that every once in a while. Obviously, this year's was pushed. I don't think we're going to be making it this year, but a couple of big ones, but not any of the small. We're not really, most of our business, we've grown off of being online. So even though we are a physical card shop, we don't actually, you know, we don't, all of our business is online. So we don't really have to go to card shows to sell boxes and cases and stuff like that. Or single cards. We don't do it. We don't have a lot of single cards. Anyway, Jalen Brown, Red Wave, Zion Williamson, My House, for the Pelicans that will be for Mike G. There's Serge Abaka, Red Wave. There's My House, Red Wave, Trey Young, and a Gold Wave, Gary Harris. So a lot happening here. Nuggets, that will be for Jeremy, and obviously you can see that the Gold ones are a little more short printed, Trey Young for Eric J. and the Hawks, and Serge Abaka for the Raptors for Gabe, Gabe P with that. Andrew Wiggins, Red Wave, Alex Lenn, Cam Reddish, Red Wave, RJ Barrel, say one of those I guess. I thought that was going to be a hollow Zion for a second. Anything else? All right. All right. Next box. Last box here in three box, random team two. No, I think autos are fewer and far between. In this team all stuff, I think the parallels, these exclusive parallels are the ones the things we're chasing here. Yeah, Luck should be a pretty good player. Nice one. Next box. I see some Gold in there. There's Pascal Siakum, Red Wave for the Raptors. Who's that Gold going to be? That Toronto Gabe with Toronto. And Steph Curry, Gold Wave for the Golden State Warriors. Nice. We've got Kundari Weatherspoon, Spurs, Daniel Christian with the Spurs, and Steph Curry, Red Wave for Golden State, Carl with the Steph, nice. And a hollow Taco Fall. Do we think that the West, Central, and East are going to have their own awards or keep it A-L-N-L? I don't know. That's a baseball Writers of America sort of deal, right? I wonder if they've made any statements on how they're handling the award season. Yeah, maybe they'll combine it, I don't know. I would guess that they would keep it separate. There's Jordan Clarkson, Red Wave, Wes Matthews, Red Wave. All right, and that's it folks. That was a quick two box break of 2019-2020 Panini Donneress Optic Basketball Team All Edition, a special China exclusive. Some more in the store, check it out on jaspeescasebreaks.com and we'll break that with you next time. Bye-bye.


The commandant of the Marine Corps visited Marines deployed to Kandahar airfield Afghanistan over the weekend. He shared his perspective of their ever-changing corps and the reason they are still serving in Afghanistan. This is the best Marine Corps we've ever had. This is a better Marine Corps than we had in March when we crossed the border into Iraq in 2003.  This is better. And I didn't bother me one bit when we marched across the border in March of 2003 and went back again in 2004 when I come out here and visit you. It doesn't bother me one bit, we are exactly where we ought to be. This fight began right here in Afghanistan and you're going to finish it. Sergeant Major of the Marine Corps Michael Barrett accompanied General Amos on his visit with Marines throughout the country. Marine Sergeant Andrew Milner, Kandahar Airfield Afghanistan.
