The National Broadcasting Company at its affiliated stations present the Pacific story. This is the story of the Pacific, the drama of the millions of people who live around this greatest sea, where the United States is now committed to a long-term policy of keeping the peace. This is the background story of the events in the Pacific, and their meaning to us and to the generations to come. Japan's Fisheries. What now? To count the Japanese fishing boats, large and small, you'd probably count about 300,000 of them. And if you'd gone to the trouble to find out where they fished, you'd find them in every part of the Pacific, the Arctic, the Antarctic, and the Indian Ocean. You'd find them in the waters of Alaska, off the coast of Mexico, down off the southern tip of Chile, up in Siberia, off the shore of Kamchatka, and down within sites, and sometimes nearer, of Australia. You'd find them in the Philippines. You'd find them among the islands of the Netherlands Indies, around Guam, around Malaya, the Gulf of Siam, the China Sea, and even in the Bay of Bengal. Pour them in! Now! The Japanese, for the reason for this widespread operation, he'd give you an answer. Are there are two reasons? Yes. First, Japan is an island nation. Japan is surrounded by water. No place in the islands is farther than 75 miles from salt water. There is not enough acreage to raise proteins. Therefore, we must take them from the sea. We must depend on fish to eat. Yes. And secondly, we must catch fish to export for cash. Food and cash. Before the war, of the 3 million persons engaged in fishing in the entire world, only one half were Japanese. Of all the fish taken from the sea in the entire world, nearly one-third were taken by the Japanese. Oh, you must remember, each Japanese eats about 30 ounces of fish a week. That's more than three times as much as the average American eats. The Japanese disposed of the rest of their catch to good advantage. They sold it, most of it, to the United States. And with the money built up their war machine. And besides, they used their hundreds of thousands of fishing boats as antennae of the Imperial Navy. Well, today the Japanese fishing fleets have been driven back to the waters of Japan. Disaster has crowned the 40 years of aggressive fishing, which started with the defeat of Russia in the Russo-Japanese War. It started before that. So, Russians will tell you. It started with the dispute over the Kuril Islands and the island of Sakhalin, back in the middle of the last century. Yes, maybe that's right. After a long squabble, imperialist Russia and imperialist Japan signed a treaty in 1875. Oh, yes. Russia got the island of Sakhalin, and Japan got the chain of Kuril Islands. From that time on, there was trouble. But the real trouble did not come with the Japanese fisheries, until the Port Smoot Treaty was signed in 1907 at the close of the Russo-Japanese War. The Japanese insisted that fishing rights be written into the treaty. Russia hereby agrees to arrange with Japan for granting for Japanese subject rights of fisheries along the coast of Russian possessions in the Japan Sea, the Sea of Ohatsk and the Bering Sea. This was the wedge. Russia was in no position to deny these fishing rights to the Japanese. The Japanese moved in and began their 40 years of encroachment, legal and illegal, which took her into millions of square miles of waters and brought her into conflict with nationals whose waters they violated over nearly half the globe. In the years between the Russo-Japanese War and World War I, the Japanese adhered fairly well to the fishery convention of 1907. But they were too alert to mistaking advantage of the Russian Revolution. Japan declares the fishing convention of 1907 a nerve and void. Henceforth, there will be free fishing. This meant that Russia being unable to stop the Japanese, the Japanese would fish wherever they pleased. And they did. Are fishing rights in our waters into their own hands? Yes, not protecting their fishermen with warships. With warships? Yes, protecting their fishing rights under the protection of the Japanese Imperial Army. It means that they will do what they wish and use both the army and navy to enforce their will. Fishing in our waters is one thing. But building canaries on the shore of Kamchatka, that is another thing. Yes. What can we do? Bloody Vostok and most of the eastern provinces of Siberia are controlled by the Allied intervention forces. I know. Including the Japanese. No. Nothing but work and weight. The Japanese fishing boats protected by warships swarmed over Siberian waters. The Soviets yelled, but could do nothing. The Japanese used every facility to exploit the fisheries. Even developed ideas of their own. Oh, you see, with this new machinery, this vessel is really a frothing, cunning factory. Uh-huh. With this, you'll be able to operate a good deal farther from Japan. Ah, yes. It is a matter of efficiency. I see. This is the first one we have developed. We will, of course, develop much bigger, steam-powered canary factories. If Russia ever forced the Japanese to take their canaries out of Kamchatka, the Japanese would be ready with floating canaries that could do the same job right in the middle of the fishing waters. And the floating canaries could go anywhere in the world. Well, meantime, something else was happening. At last, the Allied intervention forces moved out of Siberia. And though the Japanese force, which was bigger than all the other Allied intervention forces combined, tried to remain in Siberia, at last, this force was also obliged to get out. Soviet Russia then moved in to do something about the fishery situation. Effective at once, all treaties, concessions, and other agreements relating to fisheries and sea-hunting grounds are annulled. The fishing grounds, with some exceptions, will be leased at auction to citizens of the Soviet or to foreigners. The Soviet had called Japan's hand. Yes. They annulled the convention of 1907, which originally they forced upon Russia. Now we have annulled all agreements, and we will determine who will do the fishing in our waters. The fishing grounds or lots were rented at auction by the Russians, where the Japanese could fish, how much fish they could take, and the rental price for the fishing rights were set up by the Soviets. Japanese individuals bid against Russian individuals. The Japanese got 219 sea fisheries, and the Russians got 72. The Japanese were growing in power, but they realized that Russia was also growing in power. Accordingly, Japan agreed to recognize Soviet Russia, and Soviet Russia agreed to recognize Japan, and they further agreed to revise the Treaty of 1907, which the Japanese had first demanded and later had declared null and void. A new convention was signed in 1928. But this was on the diplomatic front. Other things were happening on other fronts. The Japanese are trying to develop a monopoly on the fisheries of the Far East. This, they must break. They will break. In 1928, we had 42 fishery companies here in the Far East. Today, two years later, we have 313. I will stop them. But we shall not stop with this 313 company. We will continue to develop companies until we have won what is rightfully the property of the people of Soviet Russia. The Japanese were no less determined. The next year, 1931, seamen in the Antarctic saw something no man had ever seen before. Well, blimey, what's that? That ship? Yes. It's a whaler. That's what I mean. But it's no kind of whaler. It's Japanese. Japanese whaler? Down here in the Antarctic. Whaling in the Antarctic is no business for Japanese. If I know the Japanese, that's just the first of the Japanese boats. From now on, we can expect to see them all over the Antarctic. Same as they're all over everywhere else. So, they're going to cut on on this field too. The Japanese knew what they were doing. When the war in Europe broke out, whale oil went up from 6 cents to 15 cents a pound. Japan sold almost every drop of whale oil she had or could get to Britain. The money Japan put into her war effort. Oh, you misunderstand. Japan needed the byproducts of our whaling industry. Or what? Well, we used the whale skin and the whale bones for fertilizer. Japan is always very much in need of fertilizer. And what about the whale leather? That, of course, was used for military equipment. The Japanese missed no bets. It was not the little individual Japanese fishermen who was profiting by these operations. All the Japanese whaling activity in the Antarctic was owned by one company, which also owned all the floating crab canneries in the northern seas. This was the Japan Marine Products Company. And this company, remember, the Japan Marine Products Company was controlled by the Manchurian Heavy Industries Corporation. The Russians knew. The same interest that controlled the fisheries controlled Japan's heavy industry. These industries brought in foreign exchange, which was used for buying materials of war. Because of this, these corporations were permitted to make enormous profit. So the Japanese government backed up the fishing operations of these corporations. So one corporation controlled all the whaling in Antarctica and all the crab fishing. Another controlled nearly all the salmon fishing in Soviet waters. By 1933, there were nine floating canneries off the shore of Kamchatka. But by this time, the Russians were making an out-and-out effort to regain control of their own resources in the waters of Siberia. Our Russia has refused to sign a new fishery convention with us. We will not move out of Kamchatka. They will not consider our request for a new long-term agreement of eight years. What do they offer? An extension of our present agreement for one year. No. They are determined to overtake and outstrip our fisheries. And at this, we will not permit. Can I tell them that we are prepared to protect our legitimate fishery activities in Kamchatka with warships? No. But we are. Are we not? We are. The fishing dispute became a matter for consideration by the highest echelon of officials, both Russian and Japanese. Russia cannot consider signing any agreement with Japan until Japan is fulfilled at least of its obligations to the Soviet Union. The payment of the money with Japan owes to Soviet Russia for the Chinese Eastern Railway in Manchuria. The Soviet Union must be aware that it is violating its fisheries obligation. Japan must be aware that it still owes the Soviet Union the last payment for the Chinese Eastern Railway. And also, Japan is committing infractions by maintaining troops in Manchuria and fortifying La Peruse Strait. The bickering went on. Russia refused to move. She would agree only to an extension of one year of the fishing convention. Meantime, Japanese fishermen were hauling in fish all over the map in enormous quantities. And most valuable of all was the salmon catch, which brought them into direct conflict with Alaska fishermen. They claimed that crabfish is catching. Then why are they anchored right there at the mouth of the river right now during the salmon run? Is that just a coincidence? That's all they say. Is it a coincidence that they're also anchored at the mouth of the other rivers? They're anchored. They're poaching on American fishing waters. That's what they're doing. Not only that, Captain. Unless I miss my guess, they're also making studies of the Aleutian Island. Mr. Warburton, take half a dozen men in a boat. Go over to that crab cannery and call him the captain. Tell him in the plainest words you know that if he doesn't up anchor and clear out of here, that he's going to have trouble. Shall we go armed? I leave that to your discretion, Mr. Warburton. Yes, sir. I'm headed for the Japanese vessel. Head for the starboard side, Miloni. The ladder may be on that side. Aye-aye. That's one man on deck. They're watching us from the port hose. There's no ladder on this side either. I've seen their boats out.  Pull in close there. Aye-aye. Watch it now, Mr. Warburton. I'm coming in close. You up for it there. Hold it off with that boat hook. Don't let it bump up there. Okay. Hello up there. There's probably a couple of hundred Japanese in this vessel. There's some someplace. Hold on the captain of your ship. Drop the ladder open. We bring the compliments of the captain of the American ship. We might as well go back. They're not going to get out of these waters until they're driven out. We're going up all along the Alaska coast. Along the chain of Aleutians. Down among the thousands of Philippine islands. Around Guam. Some of them were in small boats. Some were in boats of 100 tons or more. Some were in full-sized ships. Soviet Russia had her trouble with the Japanese fishermen. Now the United States was also having it. The boldness of the Japanese disarmed all who came in contact with them. They said little, but ignored all efforts to get them out. And in the United States, as in Russia, the matter of fishing rights ultimately became a state matter between the United States and Japan. Now let it be clearly understood that the government of the United States considers the 180th meridian as the final boundary line between the United States and Japan. The 180th meridian is approximately in the middle of the Pacific Ocean. And let it be understood that we consider every drop of water up to this line as American water. The United States cannot paint these stars and stripes on the back of every fish in the Pacific Ocean. No. And neither can Japan paint the rising sun on them. This was several years before Pearl Harbor. Steps were being taken to ensure the Japanese would never again raid the salmon waters off Alaska. But there was still another angle. Seals. In 1911, Japan, along with the United States, Britain and Russia, signed a convention for the protection of seals. The convention ran for 15 years and then was automatically extended until one party should give a year's notice of intention to abrogate the treaty. A fact that one year from this date, October 23, 1940, Japan will no longer adhere to the seal convention. The convention has done an effective job in preserving the herds of seals in the Pacific. A total effect if a job. The seal herds have grown to such size these years that they are feeding on fish which is necessary to the rife of Japan. The seals are actually reducing the Japanese catch of fish? Yes. As of October 23, 1941, Japan will no longer be a party of the seal convention. This meant that the Japanese would kill the seals at will, wherever they could. The United States made a proposal. Two things can be done. Either the size of the seal herds can be reduced, thereby eating less fish, or we will undertake to make a study and determine the exact situation. The Japanese were not interested. The seals were in danger of extermination. The United States fitted out a ship with special equipment and sent a staff of experts aboard it to study the migration and feeding habits of the seals. The ship was sailing up the coast of California when the Japanese struck at Pearl Harbor. The ship put into port. From that day, Japan's aggressive fisheries policy was doomed. The sea, where hundreds of thousands of Japanese fishing vessels had roamed, became a battleground. For all practical purposes, the fishing fleet became part of the Imperial Navy. All pelagic fishing were from this date beyond the state control. That meant all fishing far from shores. The 9,000 vessels engaged in pelagic fishing and the 120,000 fishermen aboard them are, as of the date, answerable directly to the government. These vessels totaled 200,000 tons and they knew every inch of the Pacific from the Arctic to the Antarctic from the coasts of North and South America to the Bay of Bengal. In Soviet waters alone, the Japanese had 142 vessels manned by 20,000 men all protected by the Japanese Navy. I-604 reporting from Kamchatka. 604 reporting from Kamchatka. Royal American cargo vessel heavily eroded heading for port of Petropavrov. Royal American vessel heavily eroded heading for port of Petropavrov. The Japanese fishermen reported everything through a regularly organized intelligence service. The fishery guild in Russian waters. But before the war in the Pacific had gone long, the Russians began to cut down on the so-called fishing rights of the Japanese in Soviet waters. For years, the Japanese had called the turn. Now, though Russia was also fighting for its life, Russia was calling the turn. The number of fishing grounds auctioned to the Japanese will be reduced. In effective 1942, the cash rentals for the fisheries will be raised 20%. Effective 1943, the cash rentals for the Japanese fisheries will be raised 25% more. Effective 1944, the cash rentals for the Japanese fisheries will be raised 6% more. Effective at once. All Japanese fishermen and all Japanese workers in the canneries and aboard vessels are excluded from the east coast of Kamchatka. But it was not only in Soviet waters that the Japanese fishermen were having trouble. As the allies closed in on the lands and waters stolen by the Japanese, more and more Japanese fishing vessels were driven from the sea. Less and less fish went back to Japan for food. And Japan was almost entirely cut off from income from the sale of fish and seafood. Look at that. A harbor full of fishing boats and anchor and not a drop of gasoline to run. It is all useless to complain. Herpes with us are safe. How much fish can we catch with a smack with only sea? We are used to fish with a sailboat. Most of us. It is like using our hats for nets. There is no gasoline for the motorboats. If we are to live, we must fit out every boat we can with sails. Yeah. Hold this line tight. How far can we go with this sailboat? We are lucky to go out at all. What are those? The harbors blockaded by mines dropped by enemy airplanes. Yeah. They cannot even get out of their harbors. The harbors are filled with mines. The minesweepers are sweeping them up. But every day a fishing boat is blown to pieces. Pull now. As long as we can fish, we must fish in any way we can. Why can't we not get gasoline for our engines? I know nothing of sails. There is no gasoline. How are you getting along with that sail? It will be ready in an hour. You will have to hurry. Here, I will help you. Yes. You will have to sail as soon as we get it fixed. The government is moving all fishing smacks and small whaling ruggers in this vicinity up into Tokyo Bay. Yes. We can have the sail ready in an hour. But the rigging... There is no time to lose. Fishing vessels are being destroyed wherever they are found by the enemy. By warships? By warships and by airplanes. Besides, the government says that there are four times as many fish in Tokyo Bay now than ever before. Four times? Or what? I do not know. But we must fish close to land and we must fish where there are fish and where we have the greatest protection. No, let us get this boat ready. What is that? It is a sari. Ah, it's a sari. Aoi, aoi, aoi, aoi, aoi, aoi, aoi, aoi, aoi, aoi, aoi, aoi, aoi, aoi, aoi, aoi, aoi, aoi, aoi, Ah, ah, ah, ah, ah! We are coming, we are coming. What are they? They are doing a job over there! Get down! Get down! Calling Japanese fishing vessels at a staggering rate, and as the tempo of the Allied operations in the vicinity of Japan expands, large numbers of fishing vessels are being blasted out of the sea by surface units as well as by airplanes. With the loss of each fishing vessel, the Japanese people are being deprived of their main source of food. The Allied advance, stretching the thousands of miles from the waters of the Aleutians, down through the waters of the islands of Japan itself, down through the China Sea to the waters of the Dutch Indies, shattered the Japanese fishing fleet. Within Japan, with their supply of fresh fish seriously curtailed, the Japanese ate fish meals, similar to the products fed to poultry and livestock in the United States. They ate with wheat flour and silkworms and locusts. The fishing operations that had extended from the Arctic to the Antarctic, and from the coast of Chile to South America to the coast of India in the Bay of Bengal, were done and over. Japan had collapsed. The days of bold Japanese fishermen taking salmon, cod and quail from the waters of Alaska, tuna from the waters of the Philippines and Malaya, bonito from the waters of Guam and the Dutch East Indies, all this was ended. And almost immediately, steps were taken to control future fishing operations of the Japanese. All that part of the North American continent, which continues after the land meets the ocean, until it falls away into the sea, will have to be considered the property of the United States. Claim to this continental shelf was made by the President of the United States. All the fishing in the 750,000 square miles of the ocean above the continental shelf will be under the jurisdiction of the United States. This meant that should the Japanese ever again raid the salmon waters off Alaska, they would be legally encroaching on the territory of the United States. And the Russians have taken similar measures. The so-called Japanese fishing rights in Soviet waters will be liquidated. For one thing, the Potsdam Declaration stated that the Russians would occupy the Kuril Islands. Therefore, Soviet Russia flatly claimed the Kurils and the fishing waters around them. Also, the entire island of Sakhalin and its fishing waters. So today, what is left of Japan's fishing fleets have been driven back to the waters of Japan. But Japan's millions must still eat and fish is still their most important food. Japan must be helped to be self-sufficient. This is part of the United Nations long-range policy. The exact scope of Japanese fisheries must now be decided. It is certain, first of all, that some fishery resources must be protected. No nation must ever again be permitted to fish as the Japanese have fished for the last 40 years. Secondly, the three-mile limit alone is not adequate protection of fishery resources. And thirdly, some protection must be set up which would apply not only to Japan but to all nations. So, world diplomats are mulling over the problem of the best way to manage the fisheries of the Pacific and all the world. And I suggest the International Fisheries Office manufacture or manage the fisheries of the entire world. In effect, this would be a world government for the control of all fisheries in all the oceans of the Earth. This is the nature of the thinking on the vital problem of fisheries today. And from this thinking may emerge a way not only of providing adequate food for those who need it and to prevent selfish exploitation but also a way of working toward a world government.

Welcome to world's best videos, we've come by the list of facts about cult leader and murderer Charles Manson, let's get into it. Charles Manson is an American cult leader, his followers carried out several notorious murders in the late 1960s and inspired the book Helter Skelter. Charles Manson was born on November 12th, 1934, he is now 82 years old, he was born in Cincinnati, Ohio. His birth name is Charles Miles Maddox. Charles Manson's mother was Kathleen Maddox, she was a 16 year old girl who was both an alcoholic and prostitute. Kathleen later married William Manson, the marriage did not last. Charles was placed in an all boys school, Manson's mother did not want anything to do with him. Soon enough Charles was living on the streets and getting by through petty crime.  The first 32 years of his life were eventually spent behind bars. Manson was married twice. A new chapter in his life began when he met his first wife, 17 year old Rosalie Jean Willis in 1955. He then moved with her to California. Rosalie became pregnant but Charles continued a life of crime again stealing cars. Didn't take long before he was back behind bars. By 1956 Manson's wife had left with her child and her new lover. After Manson had another child with a different woman while being out on probation. The following year he would spearhead a murderous campaign that would make him one of the most infamous figures in criminal history. Manson reflects in many ways personality traits and obsessions that are associated with groups of cult, quasi-religious groups that soon began to emerge in the 1960s and are still with us today. He was pathologically deluded into believing that he was the omen of doom regarding the planet's future. In the same way that cult and evangelist figures today claim the prophetic knowledge of the world's end. Charles was not only influenced by drugs such as LSD but by music of the time such as the Beatles song Helter Skelter and by artworks. In 1967 Manson gathered a group of followers who shared his passion for unconventional lifestyle and habitual use of hallucinogenic drugs such as LSD and magic mushrooms. The family as they became known moved to San Francisco and later to a deserted ranch in San Fernando Valley. At the time his followers which were numbering around 100 also included a small hardcore unit of impressionable young girls. They began to believe without question Manson's claim that he was Jesus and his prophecies of race war. In 1969 the county sheriff had them in custody not realizing that he had murder suspects on his hands. But it was the confessions of Susan Atkins while held in the detention of suspicion of murdering Gary Hinman during an unrelated incident that led detectives to realize that Manson and his followers were involved in the Tate L.A. Bianca killings. Manson and his family were arrested not on suspicion of murders but simply on the belief that they had vandalized a portion of the Death Valley National Park while they were hiding out in the Mojave Desert. On January 25th 1971 Manson was convicted of first degree murder for directing the deaths of Tate L.A. Bianca victims. He was sentenced to death but was automatically commuted to life in prison after California Supreme Court invalidated all death sentences prior to 1972. Manson is serving his time in Corcoran State Prison in California. Even behind bars he has still managed to attract followers. In January 2017 it was reported that Manson had been hospitalized and Bakers filled with a serious illness. There were no details about his medical condition or the inmates location were disclosed citing privacy and security reasons. Well that concludes the video guys hopefully you guys did enjoy it and if you did remember to smack that like button let us know in the comment section below which you'd like to see next and if you haven't already subscribed please do subscribe to keep up with the world's best videos.


So, the 3D particle in a box model has served us well as a model for ideal gases. It's been able to make pretty good predictions about things like the pressure and the internal energy and the enthalpy and the heat capacity for various gases. But now we've seen that there's some chinks in the armor. It does a great job of making predictions for monatomic ideal gases, but significantly less good job at predicting the heat capacity for diatomic ideal gases. So, let's see if we can understand the reasons why that would be true, and it boils down to the fact that the gases, as we've modeled them with the 3D particle in a box model, only have kinetic energy, so remember when we modeled the gases, we modeled their energy as consisting only of the kinetic energy, and for a monatomic gas molecule or atom of gas, that's reasonable. The atom bouncing around this box has no energy other than the kinetic energy and maybe a little bit of potential energy between the atoms themselves, but kinetic energy is the main form of energy in this gas, if that gas is something like argon or neon or helium. If that gas is an N2 or an O2 or some diatomic molecule, then if I draw that molecule as a diatomic molecule, it not only has kinetic energy of translation as it bounces around the box, as we've described with the 3D particle in a box, but it also has additional types of energy like rotational energy, as that molecule tumbles around in the box, or might have vibrational energy as the bond length vibrates. So there's a few different types of energy that we haven't allowed that molecule to exhibit to us in the Schrodinger equation, so that's what we're going to have to prepare to do a better job of predicting the properties of diatomic molecules. So let's start by making sure we understand how to describe the mathematics of what a diatomic molecule would look like. So let me draw a very large diatomic molecule. So here's a diatomic molecule with two atoms. Let's say atom one has mass M1 and atom two has a mass M2, so it doesn't need to be a homonuclear diatomic molecule like N2 or O2, it could be NO, or it could be HCl, it could be a diatomic molecule with two atoms of different masses. So atom number one, atom number two have masses that are different from one another. Atom number two is at some position R2 in space, and atom number one is at some position R1 in space, and the vector that describes the vector from atom one to atom two, that's R2 minus R1, that's the vector describing the bond of the molecule. There's another important quantity we can describe which is the center of mass of the molecule, the position of the center, not atom one or not atom two, but the center of the molecule. Homonuclear diatomic, the center is in the middle. The center of mass, though, if I weighted a little heavier towards whichever atom is heavier, in particular if I say M1 over M1 plus M2 times the position of atom one, and M2 over the sum of those two masses times R2, that's the definition of the center of mass. That'll give me a position in space that's closer to the heavier atom. If we say, let's go ahead and make sure the center of mass of the molecule is at the origin, so here's the origin, there's, let's see, let's draw the axes in a different color. There's the X and Y and Z axes. I've put the center of mass of the molecule, if the center of mass of the molecule is right there, I've made sure I've put the center of the mass of the molecule at the origin. The reason I've done that is because now as this molecule rotates, it'll tumble around the center of the molecule, which I've placed at the origin, so by not allowing it to move away from the origin, I've ignored any possibility that the molecule is moving around in space translationally, moving in X, Y, and Z, so the center of the mass is staying right where it is. I want to just consider the rotation of the molecule, primarily, and perhaps the vibration of the molecule, neither of which changes its center of mass away from the origin. So now the next piece of information we need is, we need to be able to talk about the geometry of the molecule and how this orientation is described in space. If I give you R1 and R2, that tells you where the atoms are, but it might be easier to specify the orientation of the molecule using this polar angle theta by how much is the molecule bent down from the Z axis and the azimuthal angle, which is if I project this vector into the X, Y plane by how much is it swept away from the X axis in a clockwise direction. So if I give you the bond length and theta and phi, that also tells you the geometry of the molecule just as well as telling you the coordinates R1 and R2. So, with that information, to start getting set up to solve Schrodinger's equation, I can say the energy of this molecule, if I want to talk about the kinetic energy of this molecule, kinetic energy we're familiar with, that's one half MV squared, because this molecule has two atoms in it. This atom has some kinetic energy, this atom has some kinetic energy. The total kinetic energy is the kinetic energy of atom one, combined with the kinetic energy of atom two. So these equations all describe the geometry of the molecule as well as its kinetic energy. But now there's a simplification that we can make, and I'm going to skip the algebra for this step, but it's not too difficult to do. If I combine these equations together, in particular, since I know there's some connection between R1 and R2, that bond length tells me the distance between atoms one and two. If I use that information in the center of mass, which I've restricted to be at the origin, I can rewrite this kinetic energy equation instead of being the sum of these two terms. If I rewrite v2 in terms of v1, and rewrite them both in terms of the bond length itself. So just like v is the rate of change of the position R1, v1 is the rate of change of R1, v2 is the velocity of atom two or the rate of change of R2, this v that I'm writing here, that's the rate of change of the bond length R. So that velocity vector, if I square it, I can rewrite the kinetic energy not as two terms, but as a single term, but where the constant in front of this v squared is something new. This letter mu, that quantity, is called the reduced mass. It's not the mass of atom one, it's not the mass of atom two, it's this particular combination of the two atoms, multiply them in the numerator, add them together in the denominator. That quantity is called a reduced mass, and that quantity, one half reduced mass times bond velocity squared, gives me the kinetic energy of the molecule. So again, I'm claiming that this equation, if I plug in reduced mass and I rearrange it a little bit, is exactly the same as this equation. You can double check me on the algebra, or if that doesn't sound like fun, you can take my word for it that this equation is true, and we can use this expression. There's an important reason to use this expression for the kinetic energy, which is that now in order to describe the molecule, let me redraw the x, y, and z axes, a molecule with this geometry and this kinetic energy and these bond lengths and locations can also be described with this kinetic energy and this mass, and what that means is if I position a molecule a distance r away from the origin, this bond length r away from the origin, with the mass equal to the reduced mass, with the same geometry bent down by this angle theta away from the z axis and swept clockwise by the single phi away from the x axis, then the energy and the properties of this molecule, not molecule, but a particle at a distance r with mass mu has the same kinetic energy, it also has similar other properties like angular momentum, it has exactly the same properties as this system, which has two atoms and two coordinates.  I can tell you r and theta and phi, and I've described this system. So three degrees of freedom, three numbers will suffice to describe this system. In order to describe this system, I have to give you six numbers, x, y, and z for atom two and the same x, y, and z, three different coordinates for atom one. So I would have to give you six coordinates to specify this system, only three to specify this system. When we get around to solving Schrodinger's equation, it'll be much easier to solve Schrodinger's equation for a problem with only three variables than it will be for a problem with six variables. So this extra work we've done to rewrite the geometry in these reduced mass coordinates is going to save us a lot of work when we solve Schrodinger's equation, which is what we'll tackle next.


What's up everyone? I'm your host Giovanni. Welcome to another Cointelegraph interview. Today I have the pleasure to be joined by Scott Melker, a veteran trader and podcaster. In this interview Scott gives us his outlook on Bitcoin and Ethereum's next price movements. He also breaks down his crypto investment strategy and explains why Layer 1 protocols should be part of everyone's crypto portfolio. But before we start, don't forget to smash the like button and subscribe to our channel. Let's get into it. Okay, so Scott, let's start looking at the Bitcoin chart. What are the key levels that you're looking at in terms of resistance and support? What is the current situation in the Bitcoin market in general? I think Bitcoin is looking really good right now. Of course it can humble us and change at any moment and looking at any chart is just an idea of what could happen. But I think that we finally exited sort of this long-term accumulation much like we saw last summer. The 45,500 area on the weekly chart to me was key. That's sort of where we kept finding resistance and topping out. And just last week we finally closed the candle above that. That's really the key area that I'm watching right now. I expect to trade around it for a while. Below that of course the same obvious areas that we've been contending with before, 42,000. I mean 42,000 is where Bitcoin topped January of 2021 and it was still there again in January of 2022. So we know that that's a key level. Below that around 39,600. So the upside now assuming that we've actually flipped this 45,500 level to support, I'm looking for a move to about 52,000, 53,000 before I would consider really reevaluating. But right now I've been saying it already kind of for weeks and months. I really thought the bottom was in already when we went down to around 33,000. I still think that's true or making higher lows. And I see no reason right now why we would drop down and make new lows. What are according to you these levels where mass emotions start to come into play and people start either to panic sell or to FOMO in massively into the Bitcoin market? That's a really good question and it's hard to predict. I think that if we start to get back above 50,000 that becomes a major major sort of psychological level and people will start to FOMO in. But of course, as we get higher, we know that retail loves to buy higher and higher and higher. They're not looking to buy the dip because they're generally panicking at that time. So as price gets higher, we start to talk about 65,000, 69,000 new all-time highs and the media starts to kick in. I think we'll really see a ton of FOMO. I think if we drop now back into the mid to high 30,000, people would start to become very skeptical again. And certainly if we start dropping back down to the bottom 30s, I think we could see a pretty quick push down into the 20,000s on some panic. In the first quarter of 2022, we saw a pretty quiet crypto market in general, like Bitcoin has been trading sideways for a long time. So I was wondering if you can give us some perspective on the longer term. So Mike Novogratz, a couple of weeks ago said that we shouldn't expect Bitcoin to rally this year because the reason for that is because the Fed is raising interest rates. So what do you think, do you agree? It's hard not to agree, although I would push back a bit on that. I do think that Bitcoin is more of an uncorrelated asset and still has a chance to perform well even in the face of these macro headwinds. But then again, there's a very famous statement in all of markets, which is don't fight the Fed. And for most crypto traders, don't fight the Fed has always meant in the past to just buy because crypto has existed in a market where there's always reduced interest rates and more inflation. Well, now don't fight the Fed means maybe they're saying they're going to be more hawkish. Interest rates are going to go up and it's going to be harder for assets to rise. But frankly, I don't see any major reason to be concerned about the macro right now. I do think that Bitcoin is largely an uncorrelated asset. It goes through times where it trades with other markets when the risk off, but generally we see that it sort of is a market of its own. And so I think that we can go higher than that. I was curious to ask you, when you say that you consider Bitcoin to be largely uncorrelated to stocks, what is the historical data that you are referring to in order to make these kind of statements? Well, it's over the last 10 years. I mean, you can zoom back to 12 or 13 years, but I consider the first sort of few years of Bitcoin's existence to be not particularly compelling when you're comparing it to other markets because it was so nascent. But the correlation for talking about Markowitz modern portfolio theory is about 0.16, which is basically utterly uncorrelated, right? If you're at a one, then you're completely correlated. You expect a 10% move in one market to equate to a 10% move in the other. Negative one is inversely correlated, of course. So if one goes up 10%, you would expect the other to go down 10%. If you're anywhere near zero between maybe negative 0.3 and 0.3, they're utterly uncorrelated markets. And that's what Bitcoin has been historically. If you consider the same way that I talk about the target of 100,000, a zoomed out investor who's willing to wait, I don't care if assets seem to be correlated or if that correlation goes up to 0.5 or 0.6 for a month, right? It's irrelevant to me. That's a very temporary correlation. It's something that happens all the time between any two assets, right? If you give enough time, there's going to be periods where any asset, whether they are correlated actually or not, seem to travel the same path for a while, right? It's like a random walk in the park. Do I think when the market goes risk off and people panic that they also sell their Bitcoin? Of course. I just think that those correlations are temporary and short. Last time you were on our show about six months ago, you told us about your portfolio construction, your crypto portfolio construction, which back then was made 70% of long-term holdings, 15% cash for buying the dips, and 15% for trading. Regarding the long-term holdings, you said that about 75% in Bitcoin and 25% in Ethereum. So has your portfolio changed since then and how? The portfolio is constantly changing just because of the performance of the assets within it, but I do like to try to at least keep a balance relatively close to what you just said every six months or a year or so, right? Sort of the traditional, every two times a year, you rebalance your portfolio to get it so it doesn't go too far out of whack. Very hard in crypto because you obviously can be holding an altcoin that does a 50 or 100X and becomes a much larger part of your portfolio than you expect, which is a very, very good problem to have. That said, I always try to stay around the 70, 15, 15 in general. What changes for me often is what's in that 70. So as you said, maybe I was 75% to 25% Bitcoin to Ethereum before, I would say it's more of a now 60% Bitcoin, 30% Ethereum, and maybe 10% other things, right? Huge amount of random other things that have either been sort of the dust that's left over from a great trade, something I invested in early and performed well, so I don't feel compelled to sell the entire position. But generally, and we've talked about this before, my investment portfolio, if I have something that I trade and it goes up 20X, 30X, 50X, the last 25% of that position, 15% goes into my long-term holds forever, right? Because I never know where it's going to be. I'm willing to now see what happens over the next 10 years with that asset I'm playing with the house's money. In general, though, more Bitcoin, Ethereum second, a basket of other things, and to generally view 70% of my portfolio as investments. And so apart from Ethereum and Bitcoin, in these long-term holdings, are there any other assets like any other cryptos that deserve a kind of permanent place in your long-term holdings that you can mention right now? Yeah, and this is a strategy that's changed for me a lot over the last year, actually, and I've kind of been beating this drum in interviews. I believe that people, if you have the capital and are willing to wait, I believe that people should be invested in all of the major layer ones. Listen now, you can choose, there's a lot of them now, right? But you can choose your favorite three or four.  I believe Ethereum is here to stay. I believe it's an extremely important asset and one that everybody should have exposure to only second to Bitcoin, and it's really close. But after that, we know that Ethereum and no layer one, frankly, can scale, right? If we have a billion people using crypto, no single chain is going to be able to accommodate that ever, right? So I believe my premise is that we will live in a multi-chain world. You want to be invested maybe in the projects that make them interoperable. Things like Cosmos are awesome, obviously, Adam. But knowing that maybe one chain becomes the DeFi chain and one chain becomes the gaming chain and one chain becomes the NFT chain or that any of these small projects could absolutely go nuts, but you're going to have trouble choosing what they are. You should just own the layer ones and the infrastructure that they're all built on, right? You may not capture the 100X upside of some small project you've never heard of that comes out of nowhere, but you will benefit from it being built on that chain. I mean, you may not own a board ape, but Ethereum holders have certainly benefited from the success of board apes. Okay, so that was an overview of your crypto portfolio, but talking about your investment portfolio overall, how is it constructed? Now, interestingly, until about March of 2020 when COVID hit and we saw the nonsense with the Fed, I believed you shouldn't have more than 10 to 20% of your money in crypto, right? So that would have been my portfolio, sort of the way that I structured it within that 15 or 20% that was crypto and 80% was still stocks, land, hard assets, some gold, all of those sort of boring bonds, all the boring things that we invested in. After I really, I was already somewhat orange-pilled, but after I really saw what happened with stimulus and inflation, I just stopped rebalancing basically and let crypto run and become a much larger part of my portfolio. I mean, now it depends on the day, but I'm probably 60-65% in crypto of my entire portfolio, but the rest of it is still all of those other assets. I believe very much long-term in all these other markets and then markets continue up and to the right if you zoom out enough. I have a robust stock portfolio. I have my IRAs and my retirement accounts that I've been contributing to absolutely forever. I dollar cost average into those and I don't think about it. I'm a huge, huge fan, especially in the last year, if you can afford to and if it makes sense of buying land, as I talked about before. Now I would like to talk about Ethereum precisely that you mentioned already. So we are all waiting for this transition that Ethereum is going to perform into the proof of stake system, which should happen already in quarter two or at the latest quarter three of this year, according to the statements made so far. So what do you think? Is it going to have a significant impact on the price of Ethereum? And is it a good idea to buy Ethereum prior to this transition that is going to happen? I believe so and I dollar cost average into Ethereum quite regularly. As I said before, I'm extremely bullish on the asset. I think it's important and I don't think it's going anywhere. As for trading the merge itself, it's hard for me to predict what's going to happen. We often see these sort of buy the rumor, sell the news. I wouldn't be surprised if price pumped massively right after. I also wouldn't be surprised if we saw a dump when it actually happens just because people have been buying in anticipation of that. So it's hard for me to make a prediction on which one of those will happen. And once again, I say zoom out. I think that this is a massively bullish event for Ethereum. I think that the eyes of the world on it, I think it will be a better chain, more usable after this happens. So when you zoom out over the long term, I think that we will see massive price growth as a result. Sort of like you look at the Bitcoin halving, right? The halving happens. It's this event you all look forward to and everybody talks about, but price doesn't react the minute it happens, right? You need to give it some time for that supply shock to sort of kick in for difficulty to adjust and for traders to react. So I think that we'll see something more like that. That said, I love what Arthur Hayes recently wrote was at five ducking digits was the medium piece, I think that he wrote about what was happening, how you can basically start to view Ethereum as I believe he said it was basically a commodity linked bond, right? That you'll be able to earn yield by parking your 32 Ethereum in the contract. 10 to 15% people are saying, which means you could take a low interest USD loan by the Ethereum, earn the yield, eventually sell, pay back that loan and capture all of the spread in between, which makes it a trade that institutions are likely to take because it's so obvious. So I think it'll be big for institutional involvement here. Listen, everybody is hunting for yield. This will be the most obvious, I believe, and secure way to do it while securing the Ethereum network at proof of stake. 10 to 15% and an asset that's generally rising over time is nothing to sneeze at, especially in a secure environment where the name is big as Ethereum. So I think it's going to be a massively fundamentally bullish event. I just wouldn't say you should be trading around what happens within five minutes of the merge. There are certain rumors about the risk implied in this merge. Some people are saying that the blockchain will not merge, but it will create a fork and that would create a massive turmoil in the whole market. But I think that you are quite skeptical that that would be the case, right? I'm skeptical, but you have to believe in anything's possible. I don't think that will happen, but this is probably, technologically, fundamentally, the largest, most complex event that we've ever seen in crypto, short of launching the Bitcoin blockchain for the first time. So it would be naive to not believe that something could go wrong. It certainly can, but I would imagine that with this many years of build up, this much anticipation, this many delays that they're prepared for, most of what could happen. Yeah, for sure. And what about the price target for Ethereum? I saw that in your latest stream, you were mentioning Ethereum to $10,000. Can you clarify this prediction? I thought Ethereum could go to $10,000 last year. Without even talking about Ethereum 2.0, I was obviously wrong. But it got halfway there. It got to five almost, right? And so I'm just an Ethereum bull. Like I said, it doesn't matter when it happens. That $10,000 that was mentioned in the video was specific to Arthur Hayes saying that he thought it would go to $10,000 on the back of Ethereum 2.0 and the merge. I think that's a conservative price target, frankly. I think that we will eventually see Ethereum at $20,000, $30,000, why not $40,000? I'm not scared to say that because I truly believe that that's likely and I'm willing to wait for it. But $10,000 this year? Sure. Why not? I'm not saying it will happen. I'm saying I would be not shocked in any way, shape or form if it did. So I think that $10,000 is a very reasonable target for investors. Okay, cool. That was Scott Melker, Trader and Podcaster. Thanks a lot, Scott, for coming on our show. Thank you, man. It's always an honor and always a pleasure. I love talking to you guys.


All right, so thanks for coming, guys. I'm Erin, and we're going to be talking about preservation and privacy, and especially the context of when privacy happens cross-border. I have my slides and my session notes available online. I'll eventually replace this bit.ly with the OSF link. Sorry about that. But the session notes are very detailed. If you want to enrich them or add to them, please feel free to do so. And if someone wants to record the Q&A, that's wicked too, or I'll try to reflect them there after the session, if I can remember. One of the key points of this discussion or the purpose of this discussion is to actually continue the conversation, because privacy and data protection is unsurprisingly quite large and intimidating and involves a lot of engagement with specialized staff and professionals who probably bill quite a bit per hour. So I think that we can probably stay in touch and share resources and information. I think that would be a really good thing. So Twitter is one way. My email will be up at the end as well. So this presentation is just going to include a quick introduction to myself into DuraSpace, a problem statement about digital preservation, privacy data protection, including some observations from my day-to-day work. I'll give an update on this project I'm working on for DuraCloud. It's a content and preservation storage project, and it's actually what launched me into this information-gathering project about privacy and data protection. And of course, we'll just do a summary of lessons learned, next steps, that whole deal. And I really would like to have a discussion and figure out where we can continue this discussion. So I'm Erin. I'm a librarian. I've had pretty amazing opportunities over the last six years to work in project management and business development around open-source software repositories. And I'm not a lawyer or even a legal expert. So I do have some experience doing legal research. I was invited to do some testimony at a parliamentary standing committee in Canada in 2012 based on some legal research I did. But that was a while ago. And it's not like my shtick. So just that's a disclaimer to say that I've referred or consulted with lawyers on some of these topics. And I'm by no means an expert. And that's why I'd like to discuss it. Also just to say that I'm here representing DuraSpace. And I'm one of a few people here representing DuraSpace. And just to say that we're a nonprofit organization and we steward open technologies. You may have heard of DSpace and Fedora, Vivo. Those fall under the DuraSpace umbrella. One of the technologies I'm going to talk about today is called DuraCloud. And it's one of the lesser known technologies under the DuraSpace umbrella. And we'll talk a little bit about why that is. So DuraSpace operates in the library and archives community. So we're pretty familiar with digital preservation best practices. And I feel like the best known and best understood one is just to have multiple independent copies of content in different geographic locations. It's something that people understand why that is a requirement or a recommendation. However, this requirement can get kind of complex. If your jurisdiction has privacy and data protection regulations, and even more complex if your jurisdiction doesn't have a lot of hosting or storage options. And I've seen that in a couple of contexts. So for example, I'm a Canadian. And I actually observe some real reluctance to use US-based cloud storage providers for digital preservation, even if they have data centers on Canadian soil. I've personally observed similar sentiments from librarians, archivists, and IT security professionals in Germany, the Netherlands, and the UK, and Aviva says Africa too. So these are some general observations just from day to day work. I don't have stats to back this up, unfortunately. But I do have a concrete example just from this last year. So I review tenders, like RFPs, all the time. And so we received an RFP from a UK-based organization in the summer of 2017. And so it was inbound. They asked us to respond. They said it's all the normal requirements, 200 terabytes of content for digital preservation. It included the requirement for at least three copies of content in two geographic locations. But it wasn't noted anywhere in the information security guidelines that storage outside of the European region would not be considered. So this all happened through private communication and inquiry. So what is OK for you guys and what is not OK? And so this is something that is pretty consistently left out of IT security requirements. And I think it should be added because people should understand what they can and can't do and where they can and can't store their content and make it very explicit. Excuse me. So in the UK, there's a Data Protection Act that says that data cannot be transferred outside of the European region without adequate protection. And I'm sure interpreting that is lots of fun. So the crux of the problem is data transfers. They create legal issues, particularly to a third party across borders. In Canada, for example, there's lots of Canadian examples because that's where I live. Sorry about that. So sorry about that. I just realized. In Canada, the responsibility of privacy and data protection is assigned to the organization that is actually collecting the data. And that responsibility persists through the entire lifetime of the data. So that has some really interesting implications when you're talking about long-term digital preservation. This isn't like we're going to delete this after three years or seven years. We don't actually know how long we're going to keep it. And we don't know if our data protection practices today are going to be any good in five years. So it has a lot of organizations airing on the side of caution because legal advice is expensive, sometimes not available at all. And they have to conduct their due diligence. And sometimes they don't have the resources to actually do that. So in some instances, they do nothing. Or in other instances, they just air on the side of caution, sometimes to the extreme. And so understanding these kinds of legal issues are particularly important when partnering with organizations internationally. DuraSpace is an organization that has members all over the world. And so partnerships internationally is something that we do. It's part of our business. And it made it very clear that we needed to be better informed about the parameters in this discussion. And so this discussion became really relevant when we were talking about creating international partnerships around DuraCloud. So like I said, DuraCloud is content and preservation storage suite of open source software tools. And it essentially can connect to storage in commercial cloud systems, national preservation networks, and academic storage systems. So it has a lot of flexibility in what it can connect to. So it's going to help you manage content across those different types of storage options. And it's going to handle the duplication and the bit level integrity checking. But despite being open source, DuraCloud doesn't really fit the mold of the other projects under the DuraSpace umbrella. It's probably why you haven't heard of it, or if you have heard of it, you may not be familiar with it, like you would be with DSpace or Fedora. So DuraCloud, it's not supported by a membership. It doesn't have a membership model. It does not have a diverse set of contributors. Instead, it was structured as a service and developed almost exclusively by staff at DuraSpace. But it does have an Apache 2 license. We're working on changing this. We really want to attract new contributors. We want to develop more welcoming and accessible documentation, and encourage and support new installations. We know that preservation storage, the location, is really important. The jurisdiction where the data is stored is very important. So we know that we are offering storage only in the US, and that just won't work for a lot of our members, a lot of people in our network, in our community. And so toward the end of making those changes, we've joined up with the Mozilla Open Leadership Training Program. We're participating in Global Sprints. There's a two-day sprint in May. We've worked with the Texas Digital Library to help them install and deliver DuraCloud services. And the international connections have kind of happened over the last year as well. So we started working with 4Science. They're a really well-known DSpace provider. They've been awesome open-source citizens in the DSpace project, huge contributors. And so we have been working with them to improve the installation and deployment documentation, because it wasn't very good. We audited their install to make sure it looked OK, and we provided training so that they could actually launch DuraCloud Europe, which they're doing this spring, which is really exciting. So the whole goal here is to create international partnerships that will enable organizations to deploy DuraCloud, offer those services, make them more accessible in other jurisdictions with support in more languages, make our products internationally supported in as many ways as possible. And we're also in discussions with a number of other organizations in other jurisdictions. So it led to a lot of questions. As we're building up this community internationally, people were asking us, are we flexible? Can we change the dependencies of DuraCloud? So right now, DuraCloud has dependencies related to AWS. Some jurisdictions are uncomfortable with using AWS, so we were asked about that. We were also asked what our obligations were under US law if data stored through our software or services was requested by the US government. And so it just underlined the need for us to be better informed, and it kick-started this process of gathering information. So to begin with, and these inquiries came this fall, so to begin with, we spoke with our general counsel. We talked to our hosting provider, AWS, my colleague Bill Brennan was at the Amazon Web Services conference I think in November. He goes every year, so he was talking to them about it. They directed him to some policy documentation, that kind of thing. And Deborah asked around, who has access to resources? People I can ask questions to, specialized counsel and the like. And that was the most fruitful avenue for information gathering. Because we ended up connecting with these guys. So these are, I guess the second group of attorneys that we consulted with, and we spoke specifically with Joe McClendon, and he focuses on commercial and technology transactions. He was in IT for over a decade. He's a young guy, super smart and very knowledgeable. And we also spoke with Matt Lee, and he advises on compliance issues related to the Patriot Act and many, many other things. We had a fruitful discussion. Some of the things, they just pointed us to other resources and they helped us clarify our own thoughts around what kind of information we need to get and what we need to put out publicly. To just make people more aware and more comfortable. So we learned that there is obviously a global trend shifting to greater transparency. And we all have heard about GDPR. It's the biggest change in privacy and data protection in 20 years. The compliance deadline is coming up fast. It's in about five weeks. And so there are a lot of resources being allocated to making sure that European organizations and organizations doing business in Europe are compliant. We also were directed toward the policy documentation from large US cloud based storage providers. Just saying that anytime that they are provided with an inquiry, whether it's from the federal government or otherwise, it has to be valid. And they're never going to disclose customer information unless there is a valid court ordered subpoena. And so we're gonna get into that because there's a lot of really timely court cases happening right now. But before I get to that, I'll just say that the US Department of Justice, they say that they're entitled to data that hosting providers store in other jurisdictions. So for example, if AWS has a Canadian data center, the DOJ can issue a warrant for information if there's an ongoing criminal investigation. And then if a search warrant isn't going to work, there's this other method, which is called a Mutual Legal Assistance Tree or an MLAT. And it's essentially an agreement signed between one or two or more countries that just creates obligations under international law for governments to assist one another in criminal investigations. So it means that a warrant or subpoena may not be necessary. The MLAT process takes a lot longer. It's much more on diplomatic channels from what I understand. But it is a way to get around needing to issue a valid search warrant. Who knows about the case between the DOJ and Microsoft about data and hosted in Ireland, anyone? Okay. So this was really interesting and I really wasn't aware of this case until these questions were raised and the attorneys directed us in this direction. So for background, Microsoft is also a US-based cloud storage provider and they have 100 data centers in 40 countries and they were the first American company to challenge a domestic search warrant. Seeking data held outside of the United States. It was held in Dublin. So essentially what happened was there was a person who was residing in Ireland. There was information I think in his email account. It was stored on an Irish server owned by Microsoft. And then after that happened, there was a criminal investigation that began in the United States and the United States wanted access to his email content. So Microsoft says that they challenged this search warrant on two kind of levels. The fact that there was concern over the US government could access data without taking into account the privacy and data protection regulations in place in the country where the data actually resides. And of course, concern that their customers would go elsewhere if they felt like they had no avenue to protect their customers' data. And so because of that, they had a lot of support from other US-based providers like AWS, like Google. And actually in 2016, a New York court sided with Microsoft in this case, but it was appealed, it went to the Supreme Court. The justices heard arguments in February and we were expecting an actual result in June, but it might not happen. So federal prosecutors actually asked that the case with Microsoft be dismissed because just a couple of weeks ago, I think it was three or four weeks ago, the Cloud Act came to be. And the Cloud Act, it stands for clarifying overseas use of data act and it clarifies that the DOJ can issue warrants for data stored in other jurisdictions and it clarifies that companies can object if it conflicts with foreign law. So it provides an avenue for those conflicts to take place. So that was pretty recent. The privacy debate is developing and it underlined the need for us to stay abreast of these developments, to gather information and share resources if possible. And we definitely need to formalize our thinking around efforts to build the DuraCloud community. So when we first started this initiative, we didn't know these things and so we need to pivot a little bit to include information about privacy and data protection and the needs of potential partners or existing partners in those initiatives. And so we do want to develop public facing documentation that shows how we'll handle data requests. However unlikely that might be. When we were talking to General Counsel, they said, this is super unlikely.  And we said, yeah, we've had the question posed to us and it being unlikely, we didn't feel was an adequate response. We also wanna develop a privacy and data protection policy that outlines our obligations and recommends best practices. Where we are partnered with ForScience in Italy for DuraCloud, they're already working toward compliance for GDPR and they actually have knowledge and expertise that they can share with us in our initiatives. We've gathered some information that we can share with them and I feel like developing this policy documentation is going to be a collaborative effort or it would be better if it were a collaborative effort. And we're gonna continue the outreach but we wanna make sure that we're airing on the side of transparencies. We wanna be pro-consumer, we wanna be pro-user. And so this is where I'm interested in hearing about the experiences that you guys have had. This is a very specific kind of case for us where DuraCloud is a very specific application and we're talking to very specific organizations but our experience in this field is quite narrow. And so I'm interested in your experiences rather dealing with this or trying to deal with this. Have you had difficulty getting information? And the other facets, I know that there are, there's an entire landscape that I probably didn't even touch on here. So I wonder, what are the other areas that are worthwhile of discussing? And what's not up on the slide here is where do we discuss this? I could post this information to the DuraCloud listserv but would that be effective? How are we going to actually discuss this in a meaningful way that we can share resources so costs are lower, things like that. So with that, I'll open the floor. Thank you. All right, thanks for coming guys. Thanks.


Hey guys, I'm giving away copies of this game, want to win one drop a like on this video only the comment down below I will pick winners and announce them in my videos to come so good luck everybody. So I've already made a unit and resource farm for folks who are still doing a campaign and today I bring you one for the multiplayer side of the game and while people I don't think it gets much better than this. Has it gone guys my name's DPJ and if you enjoy you'll stay here and would like to show you support you can by hitting that like button and if you're new I want to see more make sure you subscribe. So today people I bring you this amazing farm where you will see yourself getting hundreds of units used to purchase those in-game cosmetics within minutes upgrade modules gear which will help you through your power levels and just about every other resource you need and to do this it's seriously quick as I found a mission with a planned out route where you can get eight chests or eight sets of loot in literally five minutes with seven chests and a high value target enemy you'll also see yourself get a ton of legendaries from here too which like I said will help you with your power level increase. Okay so to get this mission you need to unlock it via getting yourself a vault resource now vault resources can be found within shield caches which are basically within each destination you are notified of the shield caches via a radar ping on your map follow that radar until you hit that point of zero meters obviously and you'll find the shield caches but the fastest way to get one and the best cache in my opinion too far to get these vault resources is the one upon the pacific northwest and the quickest way to get here is to load into any stark realities mission because your spawn point is right next to the shield cache now you can load into any other mission here within the pacific northwest but the stark realities missions like I said spawn you in right next to where you need to go so anyway within this destination locate the cache and as you can see I'm doing it on screen right now I'm just flying around the map if you're spawning to a stark realities mission you just follow the path left any other play store you may have to make your way over here via a different route but yeah follow where I'm going on screen now once you get here open that bad boy up and travel inside and open those chests these chests have a high chance of giving you a vault resource now once you have one you're good to go if you don't get one first try simply just reload this mission and go back here but yeah once you get one just back out of the mission and hopefully you get the vault mission to farm these chests so the vault you need is the farthest vault which is also located upon pacific northwest this is the mission in which you can farm those chests and get that loot real easy so if you don't have this one pop up I think you can have two or three votes on your map at the same time I can't confirm that though so you can either try and get another vault resource via the same farm I just mentioned or you could just complete the vault you did a luck and go back and get another vault resource it's up to you it's definitely worth doing this for people because it's so easy and so quick in getting those chests within that farthest vault so once you have the farthest vault just follow the route I showcase to you on the screen now and it's pretty straightforward once you have all eight loot drops simply quit at and reload the farthest vault and farm these for as long as you please and when you get bored you can just complete the vault if you want and get that high level loot too a few things to remember doing this though sometimes the puzzles to open up the doors to get their chests can change they rotate between three things standing on pads punching buttons or shooting certain targets all are straightforward and very easy to do you can also change the difficulty of these vaults before going into them to get higher resources in terms of loot drops but I will warn you the enemies don't miss and take you out pretty quickly and lastly guys it's definitely fastest doing this on four or Ironman but it ain't much slower on any other Avenger now I'm certainly aware that the other vaults do have as many chests within them it's just in my opinion the first vault is by far the easiest to locate them all for sure and following this route will take you no more than five or six minutes I'm certain of that so yeah guys this is for those endgame players looking for resources including units upgrade modules gear and much much more this is perfect for that and on that note we have come to the end of the video if you guys enjoyed it leaving a like really helps out if you're new around here want to see more Avengers be sure to subscribe and if you never want to miss a video upload you can turn notifications on by hitting that bell button but guys thanks as always for stopping by hopefully you enjoyed the video and hopefully I will see you on that next one chest with gear nearby painting special resources nearby he gained something useful


Every once in a while you're here on a TV or a movie, people talking about speedy trial. What does speedy trial mean? Well, it originates in our Constitution and it means that citizens of this country are entitled to a speedy trial.  Typically what happens is a lawyer will make a decision to waive speedy trial so they're not bound for a particular time or they'll hold the government speedy trial because they believe the government can't get their witnesses together. In the state of Florida in a misdemeanor case speedy trial is 90 days, felony 175 days. Typically it doesn't come into play but watch criminal cases around the state and sometimes you'll hear the words, we're not waiving speedy. You'll know then they're talking about speedy trial.


So now we're going to explain how the units move around in the game and we've already said before that depending if you want to advance or sprint that will mean you can move two or three or one or two. I think a lot of yours are a bit slower than my speedy rats smaller legs. Yeah. So let's say I wanted to move this rat at the back here. So if I wanted to just do a really simple move that's a stalker and that can move two or three. So you've got the option of doing a short action, two short actions or one long action. So a short action could be something like moving and shooting whereas a long action would be sprinting or if you're already in melee you have to do a long action kind of fight as well. So it gives you some options of what you want to do. So let's say I want to move two and then I wanted to maybe shoot this poor gcps soldier in the middle of the field here. So if I wanted to go two I'd go one, two, like that, that's a really simple move that's just straight out into the open which probably isn't a very good idea because I could get shot. But you could put yourself anywhere in that cube. Anywhere in the cube. So let's say let's say if I maybe move this bit of terrain here I could actually go one, two and then making sure I actually position myself anywhere within that cube get some cover from this. Do you have to be exactly in the cube? No, you can overhang slightly as well. So as long as the majority of your base is in that cube that is where you... You count as being in that. Yeah. Okay. But as you were saying earlier on Matt, imagine we're in a 3D space here so it's not just like you're moving around on a flat surface. One of the big things is that you can also move around up and down levels as well. And that might be to get a shot on an enemy that you can't see or you might want to hide behind a different bit of terrain. So I've got my little, let's call him Sid. I've got Sid the stalker here who wants to move into this area here. So that means I can actually go diagonal, one and then because there's a solid bit of kind of terrain here I can actually scramble up that wall to get out of the way. So there'd be one to there and I can go to diagonally because this side is open. I can squeeze in there. And could you go, if it's solid, can you also go through it? So if you wanted to come this here or not? So could I come through? Yeah. Can you walk? So you were able to walk up a solid wall. Can you walk through a solid wall? No, you can't walk through a solid wall. Okay. So then we'll have gaps. So you might see this one's ruined. So what you could say before the game is, okay, we'll say that counts as a size one gap. Okay. So that means that a size one model could squeeze through that one. But obviously at the top here, that's a completely solid wall. You know, I can't pass through that. Okay. And you also got to bear in mind as well that you've got things like half cubes like this. So obviously some of the terrain is ruined. So what I can do then is I can still go up and go one, two and stand on here. But because this is half a cube, it means that the amount of models that can fit in there is reduced. So normally a cube has a capacity of four.  So a stalker is size one. So that means in a normal cube, I can fit four stalkers. So on a half cube like this, I can only fit two because it's half the size. If you've got a bigger model like the nightmare, that is a size two. I can only fit two of those in a cube or one on the half cube. So obviously at the minute, I've just been moving. You can also sprint as well. So that means I can move up to three. So I could go one, two. And then we'll still say that I can scramble up this wall. So I can go three there. So basically with it being only eight by eight and sprint to three, almost halfway across the border, really? Yeah. I mean, you do get into combat quite quickly, particularly with some of the VM in castle have special rules which help them to move a bit further as well. You can also use the command dice, which we'll cover in a bit. But yeah, you can say that pretty much you're starting to shoot and get into combat term one, you know, which is really good because it means it is very fast. We've already talked about how fast it is to move. But you'll see there how, you know, because I'm not having to use tape measures or anything like that, I can't really quickly get in. And then once I'm in the cube, I can then start messing around and deciding exactly where I want them to stand, cube. Okay. So are you able to jump through gaps? So, you know, we've obviously got gaps in various places. You've sprinted up here in another turn. What guy get to here? Now there's obviously no solid wall here. But can he actually jump across that gap to get to me? So, mine can't. But some of the units, and luckily your GCPS have this, they have a jump pack. So a jump pack does allow you to jump over a gap. So up to one cube. As long as it's on the same level.  But yeah, so you could theoretically, on your turn, go on. And that'll be one, two. Yeah. You could sprint over and then potentially start fighting me. So yeah, so some of them can move up and down levels as well for free. But yeah, the jump pack allows you to jump over gaps. Great. So yeah, moving. I can't express quite how simple it is. But yeah, you'll very quickly decide to move your models around and get into position ready to start fighting or shooting. We'll cover now.


When the narcissist doesn't return to you Sometimes the narcissist won't return to you Because in most situations their minds are on something else They're preoccupied with another source of supply They found someone else to replace you But this isn't something that happened after they left you they targeted someone else While they were devaluing you While they were still with you Which is why they started to pay less and less attention to you Because this other person has their full attention They have a strong but unreasonable feeling of attraction for this person But first they have to put you down Before they can see this other person as the one who makes them happy The one who makes them feel like they're attractive elaborate and impressive While you are just a piece of garbage You're this utterly worthless contemptible person Who is beneath their consideration Which is what they're trying to get rid of Because they're trying to move on But first they have to ensure that this new person Is going to be susceptible to them in ablation So while they're with you they will be talking to someone else behind your back Until they finally discard you But this isn't something that happens immediately It takes time for them to prepare and train their next victim But if they know that you're still interested in being with them They will toy with you. They will tease and entice you They will deal lightly with your emotions because they've got you to persevere They've got you to continue in a course of action Even with little or no indication of success By not giving you a sense of resolution or conclusion So they already know that you're confused They know you're looking for answers Which is exactly what they want Because then they know you're going to do as much as you can To try to fix it They know you're going to try to make things right And that is when they will return to you But if you've figured them out And you've told them that you know who they are You've told them that you're not going to fall for their nonsense, lies or exaggeration anymore They know their scheme and deception has been revealed They know their dishonest activity has been discovered They know that you've seen through their trick So they know it's not like a fooling you You're no longer under their spell So now they're no longer going to be able to manipulate you in the same way as they did before It's not going to work Because you've figured them out You know what's going on So from that point on All they're going to do is misbehave They're just going to cause you trouble They're going to act in a way that is different from what is normal or expected They're not even going to bother to play the game anymore They're going to show you who they are Because they know it's only a matter of time until you get rid of them Because you've figured them out In these situations They will only return to you to test your state of mind To see if you're really serious about not wanting to deal with them anymore So they will come back Acting as though they finally realized what they did wrong They will acknowledge or disclose their faults or flaws They will say that they've realized so many things They've realized how special and important you are But they're just talking nonsense in an attempt to deceive you And if you realize that Then they know that you have them completely figured out You have their number You know them well enough to anticipate what they're going to do So now there's nothing for them to obtain from you Because now they know you're not going to invest your money or emotions into them They're not going to get anything out of you So it's a done deal They're gone They're finished You want you from them again They have to set their sights on someone else Because it doesn't make any sense for them to return to you Because you're not going to give them what they want Which is how the power is in your hands You have complete power in this situation Because you've already rejected them You've caused a narcissistic injury You've wounded their ego You've slighted their false image You've showed them that you have the power to walk away Even though they didn't think that you did Because they estimated you as being something that is less important than it really is So they never thought that you were going to leave But once you've decided to leave Based on valid reason and good judgment They know you're not coming back So they have to move on to the next target Because you know they don't hold any importance, value or usefulness You know they don't want to do good or helpful things You know they don't have your best interest in mind So you figure them out You know they fooled you You know they played a joke or trick on you You know what they're about So there's no reason for the situation to continue Because when they leave you They want you to lose your ability to function efficiently They want you to be sad and confused So that you can't move on and do something with your life They want you to feel like you have lost something Which can keep many victims stuck While the narcissist moves on feeling good about leaving you But sometimes they still want to be informed of your situation So that they can see the damage they've done So that they can see you're still suffering That's one of the main reasons why they come back after they've left you Because they want to see how much is still affecting you So they will come back from time to time But if you don't let it get to you And you're still able to do the things that you need to do That means that they failed in trying to destroy you Because you turned it into something positive Which is a major setback to them It's a severe disappointment The best revenge is your success So when they check back in And they see that you're happy and you're doing well Why would they try to return to you When you know what they're about When you don't want anything to do with them They would be wasting their time and energy It wouldn't make any sense for them to return Once you figure them out Once you've moved on with your life And you're not affected by their attempts to bring you down It would be a big risk for them To try to return to a powerful and dynamic person Because now you're moving forward in a purposeful way You're becoming better and greater And your success and recovery dissolves the narcissist It causes them to leave or disappear immediately Because they can't stand it So when you continue to grow and succeed It causes a narcissistic injury It wounds their ego It slights their false image So when the narcissist doesn't return to you It means that you've won You've defeated them They're not going to try to follow you On your path or direction They're going to find someone who is unsuspecting Someone who is not aware of the presence of danger Someone who feels no suspicion Someone who they can catch off guard Even if they are lower in position Even if they are at a lower standard They know they can't do anything with you Because you have made them ineffective They can't affect you So if the narcissist is still trying to return to you They still see you as a joke They still think you're weak But when the narcissist doesn't try to return to you It's because they realize You're not something they can amuse themselves with They realize You're not something to mess with So they're not going to waste their efforts pursuing you They'll go and find someone else

Hey guys, it's Brandon, creator of Happily Dressed, a fashion blog dedicated to self-acceptance, self-confidence, and self-sufficiency, and welcome back to the channel. I say that so fast sometimes, I don't even realize how it comes out of my mouth. But anyway, as you can tell from the title, this is very exciting news. I'm hosting a workshop this Sunday. I'm so excited. January 17th at 12 p.m. Eastern Standard Time. All about how to sew. So basically I'm going through my personal journey of how I started sewing. I'm gonna give you guys a list of recommendations and resources to help start you off on your sewing journey, as well as equip you with accounts that inspire through Instagram or YouTube. And you'll also get the total PDF pattern that I have a video for actually on this channel. And the most exciting part is that there will be a Q&A session at the end where you guys can ask me questions. This will all be over Zoom. I will have a link down below to where you can purchase the tickets for my website. So right now, I only have 20 available and 12 are already sold, but depending on the demand, I can add more time slots for that day or even if the demand exceeds 20, I might bump it up to 25 as well. Just because I want everyone to have a chance to ask me any questions they may have about their own personal sewing journey and anything of that nature. So this workshop is for anyone who has been wanting to start sewing, learning how to sew. I just didn't know where to start. This workshop is for you. And it's cool because it takes what I get to do here on YouTube and it puts us face to face with one another, which I think is so cool. Finally, you guys can talk back to me instead of me just talking to a camera. So if you are interested in that workshop, spaces are limited, so go ahead and visit that link down below. Also, I'll be doing a giveaway for one spot for the workshop. To find out the rules of that giveaway, you can go over to my Instagram right now. Basically, you'll just repost the Instagram posts of the Sewing Workshop in general on your stories. And then by Friday, I'll announce a winner. So whether you're interested in buying a ticket or winning a ticket, visit the links down below. And until next time, I will see you guys in my next video which has something to do, oh, it's further back than I thought, which has something to do with this guy right here, which I'm very excited to show you guys once it's finished. See you guys later.


Let's listen in. Aaron, obviously, before the game news came out that you weren't able to reach an agreement for an extension. Just what's your level of disappointment that you weren't able to get something done prior to today? I don't know about a level. You're disappointed, but you weren't able to agree on extension. But like I said, I kind of told you guys pregame was just an honor to even get a chance to be discussing those kind of talks and be in this position. But weren't able to come to an agreement, and now it's time for me to keep wanting a ball game for the Yankees like we did today. You had mentioned how it's not going to affect you. It's not going to change your focus whatsoever. How do you block that out? I block it out like I'm not a free agent. I'm not a free agent who's searching for a job. I know no matter what, I'm going to be playing here at the Yankees for this whole year. So there was never any doubt in my mind that I wouldn't be playing baseball. So the fact that I know that I'm going to be playing here in pin tribes for this year, it allows me to go out there and just do what I need to do if it's for one year or if it's for multiple years. So for me, I've never even really got distracted by it. I've always tried to stay focused on the job I got to do on the field. Eric. Aaron, you said your disappointed things didn't work out in terms of extension. Does that disappointment extend to how the Yankees made their offer to you? Did you feel value? Did you feel that they lowballed you? How would you characterize the tenor of the talks? I won't get into the talks. Negotiation is negotiating. I'm just disappointed because I think I've been vocal about I want to be a Yankee for life. I want to bring a championship back to New York. I don't want to do it for the fans here. This is their family. This is home for me and I'm not getting that done right now. It's things, but I got a job to do on the field and I got to shift my focus to that now and go play some ball. And Brian, when he talked to us said that he wouldn't completely close the door on something getting worked out between the Yankees and your representation during the season, would you completely close the door to something like that happening? Yeah, I got a job to focus on. I don't really, you know, we can move on to some arbitration talks and walk in, finish that. And yeah. Andy. As I'm sure you know, Cashman told us what their final offer was when we were in here. I know you don't want to get into much about the negotiations, but is there anything you would want to say publicly about your reasoning and determining that wasn't the offer for you to accept at this time? Yeah, I don't like talking numbers. I like to keep that private. Something, you know, I kind of felt like it was private between my team and the Yankees. But I'm not going to get into that. Do you mind that it was told to us then if you feel that it should be private? You know, Cash has a job to do. You know, this is what he does. You know, I'm a ball player. He does what he does. And I can't control what happens on the other side. Right here, Brian. Aaron, when you came to the park today, did you know it wasn't going to happen or did it come down to the wire? And you were kind of, maybe it will. Oh, you're always optimistic. I was optimistic. But like I said, we weren't able to agree on anything, leading up to it. And at that point, you just shift and get ready for the game. And a big game that we had today. And yeah, we weren't able to get it done. I got nothing else.
