From Hollywood, the National Broadcasting Company presents... ...reduction, the senator was indiscreet, star... This week at this new time, the Hollywood Screen Directors will bring you the finest adaptations of your favorite motion picture entertainment, together with the stars who created the original roles. Now tonight's story, for the first time on the air, we present the film comedy, The Senator Was Indiscreet, starring William Powell as Senator Ashton, with Peggy Dowell as Poppy McNaughton. Any similarity between this story and a coincidence is purely comical. For we all know that in these United States, there is no such thing as a tub-thumping, hand-pumping, baby-kissing politician. Nevertheless, Senator Melvin Gasaway Ashton has left Washington to descend upon New York, where even now he takes his regalese in his hotel room and records the fact in his diary. Perhaps this is the beginning of the campaign that will see me in the White House, or to be the leader of this proud nation and make 100,000 a year. Come in. Oh, it's you, Lou. Senator, don't ever say that Luke Gibson isn't the greatest publicity man since the guy who promoted hash. You know what I got outside? Well, if it's constituent, my boy, I'll make a speech. Uh, my friends? Save it. I got a crew of newsreel cameramen and three count'em, three full-blooded Indians. Oh, my boy, my boy, how can I thank you? Okay, fellas, start setting up. Okay, okay, I'll set the camera right here. Won't Mama be pleased with what she hears about this? Here they are, Senator. Three full-blooded Indians going to make you a member of their savage tribe. Say hello, Senator. How are you, Senator? What's new in Washington? Where's the washroom? Me bring'em greetings from Great White Father. Say, can a member of the press intrude? Poppy, darling, come on in. Senator, meet Miss Poppy McNaughton, the best newspaper gal in town. Welcome, my child, welcome. Thank you, Senator. I'm here to ask about that new bill you've introduced. The McCoy Keith Ashton Bill. Oh, yes, yes. Well, that bill, my dear, is designed for the protection of man's most faithful servant. Oh, yes, the Maytag washing machine. I mean the letter carrier. Why is the letter carrier weary at the end of the day? Because he's tired. Because he's been trudging the hard pavements with a load too heavy for man to bear. And that is where my bill comes in. The McCoy Keith Ashton Bill will compel every man, woman and child in this fair land to write his letters on tissue paper. Oh, I see. Lou, could I speak to you outside for a minute, please? Sure, honey. You talk to the cameraman, Senator. Oh, thank you, my boy. My friends of the motion picture industry. Broward is doing the diadem of American entertainment. Well, Poppy, isn't he a beaut? Lou, you're not pumping up that windbag for president. Look, I'm a press agent. If I can promote Ashton, I'll be in the big time. Then we'll be able to get married. Oh, those are very tough terms. Oh, Poppy, give Ashton a break in your column. Don't be difficult. I won't. I'll be impossible. How? I'm just going to quote him accurately. That's how. Oh, that's dirty journalism. You can't quote politicians accurately. You just watch me. See you tonight, publicity man. Tonight it is. Okay, boys, ready with the newsreel? Anytime. Roll'em. Okay, Senator, you're on. From great white father in Washington, I bring message to Redman. My manatee, may manatee give you much rain. How? How? Much good hunting. How? How? Many fine squads. And how? That does it. Let's go, boys. How did you write? Uh-oh. What's the matter? Look, standing over there. When did he come in? What? Oh, brother, Fred Houlahan, the boss of the party. Oh, uh... Well, hello, Fred. Hello, Senator. Well, many ha-ha. What are you trying to pull? Oh, just a little stunt, Fred. Lou Gibson dreamt it up. Oh, he did. Mel, don't you know that having a picture taken with an Indian automatically makes you a candidate for president? Well, get on line. I think I'll go back to my office. Don't be angry, Fred. Mel, the party wouldn't back you for president if you were George Washington's mother. You couldn't win. Now, what about this speech I hear you're making to the National Institute of Businessmen tonight? We didn't authorize that either. Well, but they asked me. Yes, I'll bet. Well, let's see the speech. It's the old number five. Uh-huh. Isn't that the one you delivered in Detroit on December 6, 1941? I had the honor, yes. Isn't it about time you cut out that part of the possibility of war with Japan? Excuse me. Uh, United States Senator Melvin G. Ashton speaking. Washington? Yes, yes, put it through, put it through. It's mama. Yes, all right. I'm leaving. But remember, Mel, forget the White House. I'll see you later. Bye, Fred. Oh, hello. Hello, mama? Yes, yes, everything's fine, mama. The White House? Oh, no, no, mama, I'm not going to be president. No, no, I guess you won't be able to tear down that new balcony. Yes. Oh, yes, yes, mama, I'm writing, writing everything down on my diary. See, you know what, mama? I'm an Indian now. Yes, member of a, member of a tribe. What? Oh, no, mama, don't worry. I won't let them lay a hand on your new hairdo. Yes, mama? Yes, mama? Mr. Gibson, there's a Miss Valerie Shepherd to see you. Shepherd? Look, I'm very busy. What does she look like? Oh, we'll send her right in. Mr. Gibson? Well, what can I do for you? Well, you remember Bill Fisher from Plainville, don't you? Why, of course. Well, Bill said to say hello, and he thought with your connections you might help me get a room here in the hotel. A hotel room it is. How is Bill, the old paratrooper? Did he ever get into politics? Oh, in a small way. That was always Bill's big beef, politics. In the army, he always said he'd clean out the crooks and clowns. Oh, by the way, the senator from Ye Olde Home State is staying right here in the hotel. Senator Ashton? Uh-huh. Oh, I just love to meet him. Oh, lady, you've met me. Let's not push our luck.  Big speech for big businessmen. You'll love it. Conclusion, may I say. It is with pride and humility that I have been permitted to serve this proud republic, this brightest jewel in the diadem of nations. And now, if there are any questions, I should be glad to answer them. Frankly, completely, and to the best of my humble ability. Great news story you're getting, huh, Poppy? Yeah, the senator's run the gamut from tedium to monotony. Miss Shepherd seems to be enjoying it. Oh, I think he's just brand. Uh-oh, watch this. I planted the note that's being handed to old wooden shoes. Well, well, well. What's this? A note? Well, yes, and a very embarrassing note it is. I must confess, I didn't expect such a question. But I shall answer it with the same candor in which it is asked. Senator Ashton, if the nomination for president were offered to you, would you accept? My friends, as you all know, I am a simple, God-fearing, plain-talking man.  But if the voice of the people of these United States, this brightest jewel in the diadem of mankind, should wring out over the land and say, Come, then I can only bow my head to the inevitable and say in all humility, I will. Then you ungrateful dog. Oh, oh, boss, come in, I was just going to bed.  But, Fred. No member of the party has the right to deny that he's a candidate unless he is one. Oh, well, well, well, maybe I am, Fred. On what qualifications? All the qualifications. They're written here in this newspaper clipping. You're crazy. Well, look, this is what an editorial writer says. First, the candidate should have been born in lowly circumstances. Were you born in a log cabin? No, but our roof leaked a little. Go on. Second, he should have a family. Well, I've got three fine sons and four splendid daughters. Holy ick, you have seven secretaries? Yes. Well, the third point is that the candidate should have a dog. I have a dog, Fred. I hate the sight of him, but I have one. Fourth, you can stop right there.  Well, then, then, Fred, I have something to tell you. Well? I, uh, I keep a diary. I have for 35 years. Well, that makes you about the oldest high school girl in America. What do you put in it? Everything. Well, that's, uh, everything. Everything. But, uh, not, uh, everything, Mel. In detail. Not the incident in Boston. Yes, and the one in Detroit, too. And St. Louis.  Where's that diary? No use, Fred. I am keeping it. If that stuff gets out, they can beat us with bathless Grogans. You're wasting your breath, Fred. What do you mean?  Even if you never do anything with it, it's a comfort just to know it's there. I'll see you in the White House, Fred. In the corrective playhouse presentation of The Senator Was Indiscreet, starring William Powell with Peggy Dow. And to complete our political news roundup, Senator Melvin Gasaway Ashton left today on a speaking tour of the nation. The senator is, uh, not a candidate for the nomination and is understood to be making the tour because he likes to undress in Pullman berths. Savannah Georgia, Senator Melvin Gasaway Ashton, spoke here today saying, Yes, sir folks, my old grandma was born and bred right here in old Georgia. The priceless jewel in the diadem of American states. Now I want the band to strike up the beloved anthem of this sovereign state and I want you all to rise as it plays Marchin' Through Georgia. Houston, Texas. In a political speech here today, Senator Melvin Gasaway Ashton said, Yes, partners, my old grandma, bless her heart, was born and bred right here in the great state of Texas. And if I am elected, I promise you that within 60 days you'll have your independence from Mexico. Please pass the biscuits. Kansas City, Missouri. As always, Senator Ashton has again faced an issue squarely. Ladies and gentlemen, I am not for inflation. I am not for deflation. But ladies and gentlemen, I am wholeheartedly for flation. New York City. The surprise of the week has been Senator Melvin Ashton's wildcat raid on the political scene, which has more than doubled his popularity. The senator returned to New York today after a triumphant swing through the south and southwest. Been some trep, are Senator Ashton? Oh, fine, fine, my boy. Except for one thing. What's that? That young newspaper woman friend of yours, Miss McNaughton. Why does she insist upon referring to me in her column as Senator Ashken?  I'm in love with her. Lou? What about me buying her a nice little present this afternoon? Something costly. Nah, nah, it's no use. It's like trying to bribe Dick Tracy. Come in. Hello, Lou. Hello, Valerie. Heard from Bill Fisher lately? I had a letter today. Here, I want you to meet the Mahatma. Senator Ashton? This is a constituent, Miss Valerie Shepherd. Well, well, well. A sweet little flower from my old woodland. Senator, the first vote I ever cast, I cast for you. Ah, the madness of youth. Oh, here, I've got to sit down. Sit down, my dear. Sit down. Oh, look at the time. I got a date with Poppy. Pardon me, folks, while I further our public and private relations. Tell me, Poppy, oh mystic one. Look deep into your martini, and tell me what the future holds in store. I'm looking. What do you see? One dispeptic-looking olive. That's my future? And I hope you choke on it, Lou Gibson. Oh, Poppy, why don't you forget Ashton for a few minutes? I'm going to find some way to break up that clown's act if I have to commit grand larceny. What about us? What about our marriage? Look into your drink, old mystic one, and tell me what the future holds in store. One pickled onion. And that pet is just about the size of it.  And that, believe me, won't be too long. Hello, my boy. Where's Valerie? Oh, she left, and I had some shopping to do. A little gift for Poppy McNaughton, Lou. Yes. Right here in the drawer. A solid gold mesh bag. Never was a woman who could resist one. It's, uh... Lou, what's the matter? Oh, it's... It's gone. What's gone? The diary. It's gone. What diary? The record of my political career of the party's activities. Oh, no! If that hits the newspapers...  Larceny.  Who? Poppy. You wait here. I got an idea. Oh, Lou. Hello, I'm ruined. Ruined. Now, Senator, don't get hysterical.  Mr. Kelly. Hello, Lou. Hello, Gibson. I'll check with you, Mel. Fred, something terrible has happened. Mel, don't you know what you've done? Your popularity is zoomed, and the party wants to nominate you for president of the United States. Oh, Fred. Fred, the diary. Forget the diary. What about the diary? It's gone. Stolen.  Get on the phone. Put plan A into action. It's a yellow alert. You think we'll need the red alert? I don't know yet. What's the red alert? That's when they're coming after you with ropes. Give me Preston 9-6-1-6-1. Well, Ashton, you've really done it this time. Hello, Theodore. This is you know who. Theodore, I want you to contact certain parties and tell them to pack and stand by for a red alert. Red alert. Ready? Honest John McCaffrey in Boston. Honest John Brancusso in Philadelphia. Honest John Ginsberg in Albany. Honest John Frostman in...  If I had the diary, it would already be in print. This is a newspaper. Come on, Poppy. Stop stalling. So help me, Lou. I haven't got the diary. Yeah, probably some other conniving woman.  What about that corn-fed feta bearer? That Valerie Gap. Valerie? No. She's just a friend of a friend of mine, Bill Fisher. He's not the kind of a guy who...  Idea? Well, Bill's an old Ashton hater from way back. And that girl shows up just when... Come on, we gotta find Valerie. Honest John Vincent in Oklahoma City. And Honest John Fairness in San Francisco. And 5% Harrigan in St. Louis. You got that there at all? Right. I looked there at all. There are no extradition treaties between the United States and the following countries. Outer Mongolia, Greenland, Lower Slobovia, and Little America. A place to leave for Tibet from San Francisco daily at 120 a.m. A place from Mexico daily. Oh, yes, Fred. I'm afraid I have a very unpleasant duty to perform. Now? Now look, Fred. It's no use. You've got to resign from the Senate. Resign? But what about my family? They'll have to resign too. But how are we going to live? Off your interest on your capital. What capital? What capital?  How could I have, Fred? How did I know that income tax bill I introduced meant me too? Well, you'll have to go to work. Work? But, Fred, I'm a senator.  Oh, no, Fred. No. Either the party figures out a way for me to make a living or I won't resign. Hey, hey, they need a dog catcher in Peoria. No, that's out. No, wait a minute, wait a minute, I've got it. You can be a sports star like in baseball. Well, the duties will be relatively simple, Senator, three hours' work, one day a week. Oh, never mind the duties. What's the pay? Around 150,000. 150,000? I say that's more than president. Hello? Oh, hello, Mama. Mama, you know what? I'm not going to be a president. I'm going to be a czar. Yes, but Mama, no, Mama, you won't have to drink vodka. Look, 150,000 a year, Mama. Yes, Mama. Yes, Mama. Okay, Poppy, here's Valerie's room. She must have the diary. By Lou and Miss McNaughton. Uh-huh, all packed and ready to leave town. Is, is something wrong? Sister, something is very wrong. Hold on, Lou, I'll check her bags. Oh, no, no, you can't do that. We're doing it. I should have known that billfish who sent you down to fish for something to pin on Ashton. No, here's the diary. Oh, let's have it. Oh, no, you don't, it's mine now. Oh, Poppy, you double-crossing heel? No way for me, you wouldn't hit a woman. Give me that diary. Oh, no, let go. I see. Well, who was that? Lou Gibson. He's got the diary back. Wow, you've done it again, boss. Yes, well, laugh. Be happy. You can be president now. But how can I afford it? I've just taken a $50,000 cut in salary. Oh, but, Mel, they give you a house to live in and on rainy days, you can show your own movies in the White House projection room. Cowboy pictures? Yeah, yeah. Hop along Cassidy. Oh, boy. All right. I'll take it. Good, old Mel. I knew you wouldn't let us down. But I'd better call Mama. Oh, I'll get that. Where's the diary? If you got it, I'd got it all right. I'm talking to Mama. Hello, Mama? Well, Mama? I'm not going to be a czar. No, I've decided to become president. Yes. Yes, I know. That's only $100,000 a year, Mama, but it's the best I can do. And besides, think of the fishing. Yes, Mama? Yes, Mama? Do I understand that Lemonhead is really going to be president? Yes, now that you've got the diary. I haven't got the diary. You haven't. But you said that you... Just a minute, Mama. The diary will shortly be in the possession of one Poppy McNaughton, a member of the Fourth Estate. The newspapers? It's one page in an hour. It's a long, boys. Joe, Belle, start moving. The alert just turned red. I'll give you an alarm.  Hello? Mama? I'm not going to be president after all. You better start packing, Mama. Yes, we're taking a trip to Outer Mongolia. Outer Mongolia, Mama. Proudest jewel in the diadem of Asia. People vote there, Mama. And if I hear their call, if they should say to me, Melvin G. Ashton, come, then I'll listen, Mama. Oh, don't worry, Mama. We'll make it yet. Yes, Mama. William Powell will return in just a moment. Here's a reminder to tune in again next week. When, for the first time on the air, you'll hear the exciting drama, Chris Cross, starring Burt Lancaster in his original role. Now, here again is tonight's star, William Powell. You know, all of us who face the motion picture cameras or great debt to the directors of Hollywood, we're very humbly aware that without their assistance and skill and knowledge, our pictures never could really be made. Now, it's my pleasure to introduce not only the director of many wonderful films, but the president of the screen director's guild, George Marshall. Thank you, and thank you very much, Bill. I was anxious to be here tonight because this marks the beginning of a new series of screen director's playhouse shows at a new time. Well, I want to wish you and all the directors the best of luck, George. You've been bringing some swell motion picture entertainment to the microphone. Well, thank you again, Bill. You know, that must be quite a position you have being president of the screen director's guild. Well, it wasn't easy getting to be president, Bill. I really had to fight for the job. Who did you fight? Oh, a fellow by the name of Melvin Gasaway Ashton. Yes, but George, look at the prestige and the salary. Yes, that is something to look forward. I would say about 43 cents a year. I think mama would be interested. I think that proudest jewel in the Diadem of Womankind would say fool. Then I guess I've still got the job. And speaking for the screen director's guild, I hope that all our old listeners will be tuning in on Monday nights and that we'll be making a lot of new friends. We'll do our best to make it worth your while. Good night, everyone. Good night, Bill. Good night, Bill. And good night to you, William Powell and George Marshall. Senator was in the screen as a Natalie Johnson production presented through the courtesy of Universal International Studios, now releasing Sword in the Desert, starring Dana Andrews, Marta Taurin, and Stephen McNally. William Powell appeared by arrangement with Metro Golden Mayor, produces of the Red Danube, starring Walter Pidge and Ethel Barrymore and Peter Lofford. Peggy Dow will soon be seen in the Universal International picture The Big Frame. John Russell and Dorothy Hart. George Marshall's latest production for Paramount is Fancy Pants, starring Bob Hope and Lucille Ball. Included in tonight's cast were Paul Freese, Bill Conrad, Gene Bates, Jane Avello, Ed Max, Rita Lyons, Jack Krushan and Dan Ritz.

My best Cairo health tip would be avoid sitting on your phone in wallets to avoid spinal misalignment. My name is Angel Cortez, I'm a Term 5 student out of 10. My best tip that I can give you guys is chin tucking. So chin tucking if you're out of red light, if you're sitting up in bed, sitting up on the chair, tuck your chin back, and you'll avoid that hump that usually develops over time. Hello, this is Alfonso Hymus, I am a fourth term DC student here at SCU. My best health tip to go along with chiropractic care is yoga. Yoga practice helps keep the muscles limber and strong and reinforce those adjustments that you're getting from your chiropractor. Hi, my name is Kudrad Basi and I am Term 9 out of 10 DC student. My health tip is move it or lose it. So even if it just means going for a walk or stretching, then slowly build up from there.


welcome back good to see you all hold on just get a couple screens up here and running good to see everyone welcome back today's Wednesday what is going on with Carvana look at that nice little run news came out earnings better than expected I knew something was up when I started seeing the Carvana truck driving around in the in the neighborhood I says what and it was a brand new truck I'm like why there must be spending money but it looks like you know that that stock was one of those stocks that we've traded and we've been trading it every day for a lot of us here and it all started right around here right around in May when we saw the stock around $6 we had that big run up to about 13 and we saw make a big one to 17 I mean it's just like the stock is obviously has been treating us very well for some of us not only as a day trader but as a swing trader we're gonna talk a little bit more about it obviously the most important thing that you need to learn other than just you know catching that big runner and being at the right place the right time is following the iceberg orders because we're gonna talk a little bit about that there's a couple of good iceberg orders not only do we have them on AT&T AMD PLDA is a lot of stocks that are moving this morning and we know that obviously Tuesdays Wednesdays and Thursdays are the best day to trade and we'll definitely be checking those out so couple of stocks out there from before we get started let's talk about what happened yesterday oh by the way hopefully everybody enjoyed their their class this morning at 8 a.m. with Josh the private trading room hopefully everybody enjoyed that and hopefully it looks like everyone's back in here once again if you want to get into that room talk to Education Advisor at Cybertron University I'll tell you a little bit about how to get in there Alex had a good time the client leader you were in there grant good perfect glad you guys enjoyed it once again guys wanted to get into that room just call you office talk to Education Advisor anyway let's talk about what happened yesterday because you know obviously it's all about what happened yesterday that makes us excited why we should wake up in the morning and why we're here so a couple of good movers I want to start off with is the IONQ alright so IONQ has not only been a very very good day trade but it's been a phenomenal swing trade also we've been watching this stock since May 2 this stock was right around the $4 price range it's already at $16 breaking 52 e-kies this stock is probably going to get close to this high around 18 I'm throwing the stock back on the water list but it's more or less it's more or less got that big resistance levels around at 17 but I'm gonna put it on the B list not on the A list okay because this is more on the swing trading as of right now yesterday worked out pretty good got a little volatile sometimes but wasn't that terrible nice little mover right there ICAD another great runner yesterday very inexpensive stock $2 stock look how nice this is right around 1030 ran from 225 up to 375 you know I was talking to a new student yesterday that we had actually pretty not too far from my area right here in Queens where we live in New York and you know and one thing I think she got very old she's actually a student in the trading room right now she became one of our gold students she's like you know Falstow I've been trading forever I've been dealing options no one has ever shown me a stock go from you know right around this $2 to $4 okay I heard about it I seen it listen there people think they got these scanners we'll show you how to go out there find it she was so she was so convinced after you know doing this and taking class all the people and being a counten you know that stock right there just just that just being in that room one day just saw that kind of sold her and it was it was during that conversation I want to bring that up to ICAD so I'd like to welcome aboard by the way we're getting a really nice move in Carvan again we're gonna come back and check that out I'm seeing it right here on my level too so I don't I know we're running two cameras so running one on the face one through the back so you guys can see all my monitors what's going on but if you see on my the one behind my head you can see we're getting a nice little run up right here on that Carvana trade anyway couple of stocks I want to touch palm before we go through that watch list I know you guys are really excited about that list but we got to talk about what happened yesterday because a lot of it was what trickles in into our swing trades Nikola had a good little move I don't know I think Nikola still looks like a good swing trade she had that little pop early she's been holding here at 225 you can see here on the long-term chart let me bring this up you can see right here looks like it's going a little bit of a foul still flag it's got big resistance levels right around the $3 okay so I if you were here yesterday this is our you probably noticed it was a big big big big iceberg order right at that three bucks now remember the idea about being a good trader is following the money that's what it's all about okay that's what it's all about so Nikola was a good one that moved yesterday I think I just have two more I want to touch upon HWAT HIPR okay very slow very inexpensive it's been decent swing trade 250 up to about 330 and then the Schwab in pre-market was just absolutely fabulous this stock you can see it right here had very good earnings it started right around nine o'clock we had what was nice about this stock right around nine o'clock if you tended yesterday you'll see it we had some really good iceberg orders stock started hitting around 60 a 62 made a foul still flag it went to 63 foul still flag 64 foul still play all the way up to about 930 and then kind of flat line so go right that open all the way to 67 still looks like a swing trade remember the big very good swing trader needs to have consistency needs to hold there the lower trades there the more volume of trades the more people own the stock the better it is so anyway Schwab put it on our radar by the way does anyone here have a Schwab account I really ask I don't know if you're here in social media anybody here have a Schwab account or because if we do you can get direct access from it it's got they have the street smart pro for some of you I don't know if you know this but I when I started you know Cybertrain versity came out and believe or not we had this big there was this big dispute I have with Schwab because they copied a company's name that they merged called the cyber cyber pro and then and then cyber corp and then it became cyber trader very similar to names and I did a lot of education for Schwab so so we kind of worked out something where I was I trained a lot of their clients I've done a lot of presentations to Schwab in the past so they do have a direct access system so definitely look at it I think he trade is going to is going to Schwab to listen if that if that's the case Michael I mean listen you have TD Ameritrade they have made sure I mean Schwab is you don't hear too much about there are very a big powerhouse in the industry so it looks like they are making a big comeback but it was a it was a pretty good swing trade anyway let's get back to what's going on today let's see what's going on this morning so anyway we got this big move on Carvana let's go check it out so Carvana you could see it right here huge run up okay huge run up beautiful Faustal flag being built came down to 45 down to 58 big move when that news came out right here in the morning regarding the earnings I think there was something else what else came at some else news came out on it something about a billion dollar two things that came out Carvana enters in the distribution agreement with a city group offering up to one billion dollars of class a common shares okay both came out this morning so it looks like they had it all in prepared with that news so they really like it they really really like it now is it too late to bark by Carvana just remember everybody Carvana was the 360 dollar stock we always joke about this stock but look at this thing big big big support level looks great right now right but what do you got to keep focus is this right here okay so right there is big resistance levels which we're getting close to it right around there was a 57 looks like we got that 58 48 right there 58 right there what number is that 58 so we got big resistance 58 to around 59 60 right around that number now when I go here on level 4 bring this over here okay so I'm not really seeing anything out there you got the 16,000 shares seller out there but the big cell was real pretty much right here okay took this guy out 55 and then you have a little bit here at 57 so those where our iceberg orders are anyway Carvana back on the watch list CV&A let's keep an eye on it okay a couple of the stocks here that I found okay so we had this one I took it off my watch list five million shares I didn't really think it was moving that much that was super impressed about but I want to bring up a really good one this one was a little bit easier AT&T okay so once again did anyone hear a lot of you subscribe to my Instagram I don't know if anyone here's on my Instagram I did a video on Instagram about AT&T this morning around 8 30 this morning go back to it I did a quick real 60 seconds about this big 600,000 share buyer on the bid hit that support levels boom the stock is at 14 20 you had all the way since yesterday it was a great great great overnight swing trade and you could see how Pando worked out for you this morning so if you get a chance please go look at that alright but anyway AT&T on the watch list took a very very big hit I haven't seen a big iceberg order and AT&T that

My attention about exchanging data between control and open source applications. As you know, open source community is large, strong and so on, but of course, appropriate IOS has much more user pools than haven't used users at all. For example, the most important user pools is Coral and Adobe. Fortunately, Adobe provides very good specific format, so open source users can use this format and exchange data between Adobe applications and open source applications. But CoralDRAW is not, the formats are proprietary and closed. So we cannot transfer data between source application and Coral without regressing the user. There is a free open source application, which is related to CoralDRAW. It's a Lipsider, a splash looper, and our unit version. Lipsider provides import from CoralDRAW CDR files and C-Mix files. Splash Booker provides import from CPL core parameters of CoralDRAW and Unicode vectors also provides similar features. CoralDRAW has a free type of files. This is the regular CDR file, which contains graphics. Also free park files, C-Mix, CD-X, and CD-X, and CoralDRAW files. CPL files is very simple and we have, in our application, improved CPL file support and provide as import and export core information from open source branches to CoralDRAW. Also, potential support of these files is in Splash Booker, but Splash Booker provides only import, not export. Version of CDR file. What is this? Each CoralDRAW file, CoralDRAW version has own CDR format. If you open this file in binary, you will find market CDR, 7 CDR, 8 CDR, and so on, which corresponds according to CoralDRAW version. Our project has presented 12 years ago ability to import this letter graphics, and now good support with CDR letter graphics is with CDR library and Unicode vector, but not export, because we cannot export the graphics into CDR format, because we have no this file format specification. We can only import, because we can find some part of data inside this file and interpret it as a vector graphics. And last type of CoralDRAW files is a key part files. These files have similar features. They based on CMX specification of CMX vector formats. This is CMX version 1 and 2, and corresponded to 6 CDR compressive variants of CMX files. But initial support of this format, there is a CDR for CMX version 2 only, and Unicode vector for all this format, but with serious limitation. In our second version of Unicode vector, we have joined three different file formats. Vector graphics, Raster graphics, and packages. We can pass information between these files. For example, we can open Raster graphics, and save it as a PGA file. Or take SVG file, and extract all the colors from this file into Palit file. We support a lot of Palit's like Adobe, Sarah, Coral, and open source Palit's like JBL, and so on. Also, we support a lot of vector graphics, and we have resulted in our release and make a feature. We have provided expert to CDRX file format. That is, we can pass information from application to corridor in native corridor format. It's important because corridor is kind of isolated platform, and sometimes it doesn't understand well-documented formats like Adobe Illustrator and SVG. So, corridor user path has to use native corridor files. And our Unicode vector second version provides this stability. It was possible because many years ago Coral Corporation published very limited ceramics platformer specification. Now this specification is not accessible on Coral website, but Web Archive still stores this file, and using this specification we have built detailed CMix and CDRX file format model to save, to translate vector graphics into native corridor files. Also, we use our application's route which uses for visual analysis of binary formats. And I would like to show a small presentation about it. This is our vector graphics editor, SK-1, which uses Uniconverter as a patent. That is, Uniconverter works as a patent, and SK-1 is the front end for Uniconverter. This is a German corridor file. Let's create something special. I'm trying to create a small sticker with a specific image. So, it's ready. And now we can export to CoralDog. We have this file, this one. Sorry, this is a CG. We had access to the CG format. And now we can start windows in virtual mission with CoralDog, and try to open this file. Resulted. Excuse me? Never mind. Here you see, CoralDog's little night display and sign as CoralDog version 0. Because it's today's file format. We try to open the talk. So, very complex. Actually, when we start the speech, we are not sure that it is possible really, but very excited when it was really implemented. Because the format is really complex and input much more easier than export. So, anybody who is interested in this visual, you can contact with our team. That's all. Thank you very much.


This is the Daily Tech News for Monday, May 2nd, 2016. I'm Tom Merritt, joining me today as she does most Mondays. Ms. Veronica Belmont of twitter.com slash Veronica and Dear Veronica on a gadget. Host of Sword and Laser, it's so much more, how are you? Dear Veronica for one more day. One more day, that's it. Last Dear Veronica comes out on Wednesday. Ooh, I'm so sad that it's going away. I love that show. Aw, thank you. There's a whole archive of shows you guys can go back and watch if you want. Over and over again. Over and over again till they're like, why did we ever let her leave? Now, if things sound a tiny bit different, or if you're watching video, look a little bit different, I am at Allison Sheridan's place today because Frontier can't get to my house to replace the internet that broke last Saturday until tomorrow on Tuesday. So I have no internet at home to speak of. And Allison and Steven Sheridan, so kind in letting me crash here, use Allison's setup, use her Frontier internet bandwidth. I'm on Frontier internet right now. And she only required that I just wear this NozilaCast cap and drink from this NozilaCast mug through the whole show. The small price to pay, don't you think? Yeah, absolutely. Like actually, yes, a very small price to pay. And they fed me delicious salad. It was awesome. That's like even more than you could possibly hope for. So, you know, we're not sponsored, but go subscribe to NozilaCast at podfeat.com right now. Mm, delicious pod feet water. No, seriously, NozilaCast is a great show if you haven't subscribed to it yet. I will take this hat off in a moment, but it's actually kind of comfy. Let's start off with some headlines, shall we?


This is Think Tech Hawaii. Community Matters here. Hawaii Food and Farmer Series. My name is Stephanie Mock and I will be your host of today's show. Our series aims to work and speak to those who are helping to further a local agricultural scene here in Hawaii, whether we're talking to farmers or chefs, restaurants or all those advocacy and partner organizations that help support farmers and agriculture behind the scenes. So just because you're not a farmer doesn't mean that you can't support local ag and help further it in our state. So today our show is titled Hawaii Farm Bureau and we're going to be taking a look inside one of our good friend and good colleagues, Rachelle Lomousal from Hawaii Farm Bureau and she's going to tell us a little bit more about their mission, about the work that they do on the ground and behind the scenes to help support our farmers, whether it's legislative advocacy, economic opportunities, educational and so much more. So Hawaii Farm Bureau is a very close partner organization of my organization of Oahu Resource Conservation Development Council and it's really necessary to have this network of partner collaborators and organizations that can support our farmers in a variety of ways, whether it's technical assistance on the ground in conservation or whether it's economic opportunities and marketing classes to further local agriculture. So today I have a very good friend and colleague, Rachelle Lomousal of Hawaii Farm Bureau and I'd like to go ahead and introduce her and thank her for joining us today. So thank you so much for joining us. Yeah, it's a pleasure to be here. All right, you don't have to be nervous. We're just going to talk a little bit more about Hawaii Farm Bureau and about you. So in local agriculture as well as mainland agriculture, a lot of farmers are around 60 years old. That's an average age in agriculture and so I think it's really important that we meet young leaders and up-and-coming leaders like yourself that show all the work that you do to help support our farmers, both young, middle-aged and older farmers, right? Yeah. So I want to hear a little bit more about you as a person and how you became involved in local agriculture. So my great grandparents came to America as migrant plantation workers and my dad just recently acquired some land to farm as well and I found interest in what I could do for that industry with my degree. I graduated from UH Manoa with a political science degree and I want to see how I could contribute to agriculture in the future of it. So you have a long family history it sounds like and you want to continue that tradition and see how you can bring your own skills to help our local farmers, right? And so you're talking about you have a political science degree so you don't hear a lot about that in agriculture. Most people think I have an agriculture degree, right? Yeah, right. So but it just goes to show you that agriculture is really an interdependent field. You need political scientists, you need the farmers in the field, conservationists and it's a whole big world out there. So right now you are now working with Hawaii Farm Bureau. So I thought you could give us a quick overview of what Hawaii Farm Bureau is kind of like the 30-second snapshot and then we'll talk more about the work that you do. Yeah, sure.  We've been founded in 1948 with a group of farmers but we've been incorporated into the state of Hawaii in 1950. So like I mentioned earlier tying in my political science degree, our main mission for Hawaii Farm Bureau is to be the voice of agriculture and to really push or to help our farmers continue to farm while we go and advocate for them at the state legislature. So you want the farmers to do what they do best and farm and be in the fields working and processing their production and you want to be that voice for them so that we can support them not only in the field but in our local political scene as well. Exactly. So you get to use your political science degree every day then and support the farmers. Pretty much, yes. Fantastic. And so how long have you been with Farm Bureau then? So it's been a little over a year and I'm very excited to to see everything and just the future of our industry thus far that I've been part of the Farm Bureau. So you were talking about your this grassroots advocacy organization. You know, is it just the board of directors? Do you have members? What is the makeup of this organization? Yes, we're approximately made of 2,000 members. Wow. We do have a board of directors and we also have representatives from each county. We have about 11 chapters currently and of course there's more there's room for growth if we have more members so and this is 2,000 members throughout Hawaii? Yes. Wow, fantastic. And you started in 1948 so you're almost 70 years old basically. Yes. Wow and then you just continue to grow with more members every year. Yes, sometimes every day. So I thought we'd take a quick moment to check out a video that Farm Bureau produced just to kind of show you know the impact that they have on our farmers in our state. Yeah, sure. All right, let's check it out. Yeah. Hawaii's core is its country. Just 2% of the population growing everything so you don't have to. Small farmers with big stories about their love for the land, their love for the work despite the hardships and risks, and their quiet pride and a job well done. Hawaii agriculture big, small. We support it all. Hawaii Farm Bureau, we're growing for you. So Hawaii Farm Bureau supports it all that's what I you know big agriculture, small agriculture, basically anyone who's farming here in Hawaii. So you have a very broad mandate with 2,000 members that you're working with and I know that you're going to continue to grow especially with the all the new emerging farmers that we hear with the diversified ag especially with the plantations closing. So it's very exciting. So you know you have these 2,000 members. I thought we could take a moment and pretend I'm not a member. I must admit I am a Hawaii Farm Bureau member. Why should I be a member of Hawaii Farm Bureau? If I'm someone who's just kind of interested what are some benefits I could get from membership? Well yeah of course so other than just giving you folks or farmers a voice at the state legislature and continuing to farm at their farms we also provide member benefits. We currently exclusively have a member benefit with Aloha Air Cargo which gives them 20% off their shipments into islands and we also have a Hawaiian airline discount for Trans-Pacific traveling and we also have discounts with Granger so things that they can use it on their farms for their operations and we also currently have or we just acquired a contract with John Deere which will also provide discounts to our members as well. Wow so they get that voice, that lobbying voice, that advocating voice but they also can get some discounts for inputs and their operations to minimize those costs because as we know it is an extremely expensive business to be in and so the opportunity to kind of minimize those costs and minimize risks ultimately so that they can continue farming long term. Exactly yeah so you know you're talking about these discounts and stuff that you have what are some of the programs that Hawaii Farm Bureau does to not only support farmers but also a larger population? So we currently host the Hawaii State Farm Fair every year at Kualoa Ranch this year or this past July was our sixth year being at the ranch and that's just kind of a way or a platform for us to share our agriculture industry with the community and the public and a lot of our partners come out and they share their resources and they're and educate the public about what they do and we also have we also partner with the 4-H group and they bring out their animals that the kids bring out their animals that they raise throughout the year and they showcase them at the farm fair. We also have a Kiki Farm Hands tent and where the public can come in and have a hands-on experience basically because Kiki Farm Hands right on agriculture like whether it be riding those little baby tractors for the kids seeing all the different equipment like rakes and holes that are and the wheelbarrows that are used on farms and how they're used and we also get to practice milking a cow it's not necessarily a real cow but it's a feature that they have on this fake cow that you are able to kind of go ahead and see like how hard it is or like you know how fun it is to to be in a farm and milking a cow and also we have a soggy hatchery that comes out and they show us or they showcase how chicks are being raised yeah and so we have a bunch of stuff every July our farm fair is basically one of our way of reaching out to our community and we also have for our farmers FSMA training which is basically for our the new regulation federal regulation that was brought down to food producers which is called the food modernization act and we provide some funds so that our farmers can attend these training courses and learn more about FSMA itself and how it's going to be implemented in the state of Hawaii so you provide that legislative advocacy but you also provide that educational opportunity for you know the the community you were talking about farm fair which is extremely popular I think you mentioned it had 15,000 attendees this past July yeah oh my goodness I can't even imagine planning that 15,000 people in a weekend yeah and then you also provide that educational opportunity for the food safety modernization act the FSMA these things these very real regulations that are going to affect our farms not only throughout the nation but especially here in Hawaii with our you know such a huge fruit production area so exactly oh that's fantastic so I thought we could talk a little bit about you know we talked about the legislative advocacy and I know that people can check out some of the initiatives that you helped get passed on your website right yes and and can they voice what kind of legislation they're interested in on the website or by becoming a member how how can they get their voice better heard so that Farm Bureau can become that ultimate voice yeah so if you're a farmer or if you're a friend of a farmer you know we do have a member membership opportunity for you folks to just continue our partnership with those that are in the industry and also supporting us and so and that way you know your voice and with all of these collaborating efforts we can create a larger impact at the state capitol and that way your voice will be heard and I'm sure you update your members all the time of like we need your voice please yeah provide support and testimony of course yes all that's fantastic so I thought once we come back from our messages we could talk a little bit about the future of Hawaii Farm Bureau because I know we focused on you guys are almost 70 years old right you have 2,000 members and it's only going to continue to grow just with all the you know all the amazing programs that are out there to help support new farmers we have GoFarm and all the different educational opportunities that you guys I do with FISMA and I know you guys have a variety of other programs that you help support farmers and I like the fact that you guys also want to inspire ag enthusiasts so for example I'm not a farmer and yet I can still be a Hawaii Farm Bureau member and keep up to date on legislation what action is needed and all those opportunities yeah all right all right we're going to be right back after these quick messages to speak more with Rochelle Lomousal of Hawaii Farm Bureau we learned a little bit about her long family history in farming we're going to talk more about her future with Hawaii Farm Bureau and Hawaii Farm Bureau's mission and how that's going to really work towards furthering our local agriculture here in Hawaii welcome back we've been speaking with Rochelle Lomousal of Hawaii Farm Bureau on today's episode titled Hawaii Farm Bureau we're taking a look at this amazing grassroots advocacy organization that truly is the voice of agriculture here in Hawaii and how their programs and their advocacy efforts really support farmers but also the community and ag enthusiasts alike so we can create a better food system here in Hawaii by supporting farmers via economic means educational or legislative means as well we talked a little bit about the amazing farm fair that they had this past July with 15,000 participants to really involve the community and make the community aware that agriculture is really important not only for our own sustainability efforts but also in terms of just creating a vibrant food system as well as building community you know getting to know your local farmers or understanding all the hard work that it takes to farm whether it's livestock or orchards and everything in between so today we're talking with Rochelle to learn a little bit more about why farmers should be part of Hawaii Farm Bureau or other advocacy farming organizations and what kind of opportunities are provided so we talked a little bit about the economic I would say opportunities via discounts you know for inputs for tractors and that kind of thing as well as transportation and shipping costs and we're going to talk a little bit about how Hawaii Farm Bureau is going to move in the future so as ag is diversifying here in Hawaii what is Hawaii Farm Bureau going to do to continue to support their farmers but also continue to support all the other amazing ag measures that are going on so thank you again for joining us Rochelle thank you yeah so your organization is almost 70 years do you guys have anything planned for your 70 70th year next year it's okay if you don't know yeah we're not quite too sure even a bigger farm fair 20,000 people 25,000 that's usually our goal is to start early so we can attract a larger crowd and so yeah it's always in our goal oh that's fantastic so we talked a little bit about you know this food safety modernization act this fisma the dreaded fisma that's coming and it's a fear that all farmers you know in the united states are having not just farmers in Hawaii and so I thought you could talk a little bit more about how Hawaii Farm Bureau wants to continue those efforts in not only fisma but other educational opportunities yeah so like I mentioned earlier we've been providing some training course training courses to our farmers throughout the state and we'll continue to do that and also reach out to the next generation of farmers whether it be participating with our FFA groups and you know giving them resources such as internships whatever they may need or to have a hands-on experience that's something that we're looking more into to do and just be I guess participate have a role in that we already do but we want to be there even more for them so these educational opportunities for fisma could you give a little bit more information you know is it a webinar is it a workshop oh and is it just on the wall who or is it throughout Hawaii yeah so it's statewide and it's a workshop that you have to attend and a certified person that is able to basically commence the course is is the one facilitating it and our farmers I in turn will be able to get some type of certification through that training course yeah and so you said it statewide do you have any upcoming workshops or listeners may be interested in yes so in on Molokai we do have a workshop coming up sometimes in September and you can view that on our website as well under events and so just be on a lookout for that if you do live in on Molokai or in Maui or if you just want to fly in for like a day please let us know as soon as possible though so we can provide some type of funding for you if you are especially a member of Hawaii Farm Bureau so you provide kind of like these mini scholarships so that they can use that certification oh wow and so you said we can find that on your website under events do you also list other Farm Bureau events or yes we do um so we have when we normally have partnerships with certain groups like or cnd yours uh we'll we'll list the events um on our calendar um and so anything pertaining or related to our culture we'll definitely post it if you just let us know and shoot us an email yeah so the even if you're not a member you can still check out that website see those interesting courses and upcoming events that you know Hawaii Farm Bureau hosts but also supports as well for its partner organization so we talked a little bit about the events calendar and personally my favorite is the farm and food magazine I was hoping you could for those who don't know farm and food um I thought you could talk a little bit about what am I even what's farming food farming food magazine so it's just another platform for Hawaii Farm Bureau to kind of share like what our industry is like we do stories from our local farmers our local growers and the issues that we face as um an industry whether it be a nursery or growing food and we also have like a we show like history um historical pictures of uh just like you know like how farming was back then and um so it's a very resourceful magazine um not only is it entertaining and has lots of nice pictures but beautiful photos but it's also very it's a good educational piece as far as kind of um wanting to know a little bit more about what is ag and so it's just really nice to be able to have that to share and communicate with that to others that don't really know about our industry and I really like that you know it's paper you know in this digital age even though I love technology you know you're constantly getting email blasts or checking out websites it's really nice to have just like this beautiful magazine to just kind of look through um and she's not lying there are beautiful photos in it absolutely and so how often does this magazine come out so it's a quarterly magazine that you can actually subscribe through um our publishing company um Pacific Basin uh so there's same company that um publishes um Hawaii Business Magazine if you're not familiar with that but uh so Pacific Basin um and um I believe it's a $20 um annual or monthly subscription probably probably yeah we're not going to cite the price okay check out the website for my information yeah but it's an amazing publication and I think it's a great tool and you forgot to mention that if you become a member oh yeah you get the magazine right so you don't even have to worry about that monthly subscription right just become a farm bureau Hawaii Farm Bureau member and it's automatic and you can continue to just get this beautiful and informational tool in the mail sent straight to you and so thank you yeah and thank you for being our member of course that's why I'm having you on but I know what a great organization Hawaii Farm Bureau is and the fact that you have 2,000 members and continue to grow every year just means that and you're about to reach 70 years you know it's a it's a moment to its occasion so you can actually continue to grow because my hope is that every farmer joins a farming advocacy organizations you know so that they don't get stressed out about having to advocate for themselves and farm and provide their family a livelihood you know if we can diversify and separate all those opportunities then you know then we can have people like you being the voice while they can farm and do what they do best so yeah so and you also have an online newsletter so I mean you guys really can reach your members in a variety of ways paper website farm fair in person and so and then I thought we could talk a little bit more about your team because I know we focused on you today and I wish we could have the whole team with us but I thought you could maybe you know talk about your team and how you guys work together to make to fulfill Hawaii Farm Bureau's mission so aside from the State Farm Bureau Brian Miyamoto who is our executive director he you know he manages all of just us at the same Farm Bureau which is like a five full-time employee is myself included our general manager for the farmers market our community relations manager Megan Kono and our admin assistant Gladys Hino and we also work closely with our county counterparts they don't necessarily have full-time stoppers some of them are fortunate enough to have maybe one but we do have a lot of volunteers and so a lot of them are you know are helpful people well of course are helpful to you but they're the ones that really push for what we do and they're the ones that you know get rally up the crowd so that we can continue to do what we do so Kawai Farm Bureau Maui Farm Bureau Hilo Farm Bureau Kono Farm Bureau and the ones that are here in Oahu South County South Oahu County Farm Bureau which you're a part of yeah where to call me out Oahu County Farm Bureau and East County Farm Bureau so you know a lot of these are members that are part of these Farm Bureau like I mentioned they are just volunteers and they're all just delegates that want to perpetuate our industry and just this career you know yeah so we have a huge support chain whether it's the farmers or you guys the legislative advocates or the volunteers that help support you guys as well as the community who supports local agriculture in general well I want to thank you so much we're out of time today but thank you so much for joining us Rochelle I hope our audience has learned why Hawaii Farm Bureau is such an interesting and unique organization and how they really do support ag here in Hawaii yeah so again I would like to thank our guest Rochelle Lemosal from Hawaii Farm Bureau for joining us and I want to thank you the audience for tuning in today

great work that they do at the legislature but as well as with their farmers markets and how you can support local ag via farmers or becoming an advocate or becoming a volunteer so we want to thank you again and we'll see you next time on Think Tech Hawaii's Hawaii Food and Farmer series bye


Zoho, a global technology company, has said it's grew its business by 50% in Nigeria last year and also partnered Start-Up Ecosystem with focus on the South-South and Southeast regions in order to provide support for start-ups in the regions with plans to extend same support to start-ups in other regions. Zoho made the information known on the sidelines of Zoho Lease Nigeria The company's annual user conference held at Lagos at the weekend. Speaking during the Zoho Lease Nigeria 2023 conference, the regional director MEA at Zoho Ali Shabda said our growth is a direct result of Nigerian businesses embracing cloud technology especially unified platforms to digitally transform and build resilience to adapt to challenging market conditions. The country head Keinde Ogundari said the transactional localism strategy of being locally rooted while staying globally connected is also key to our growth in Nigeria as we are able to serve our customers directly with our locally hired teams in Lagos. Think about Zoho for every day man. I think you would think of the company that is dedicated to helping you digitalize the way you do your business today.  Whatever you are selling, whatever you are selling, you need to find a way to digitalize that process. So that is what Zoho will provide. They enable the platform to digitalize, to go online, to go digital. That will be the way I would say it to a non-tech person. What calls Zoho for start-up is to encourage start-up community to think of the business side of their business. A lot of people focus on the product. And at the end of the day too, because they want to also sit with the big boys. They tend to spend too much money on technology to maintain that business. So sustainability is not going to be there for them. But then Zoho for start-up is a program that we created to give them the credit so that you can use it for free and then develop your business. When you scale to a certain point, you won't need free software again. Then you can pay for it. And before you pay for it, you can see the value already. So the $470,000 can last you six months, can last you one year, depending on how you are using it. So it will help you develop your business, streamline your business and then digitalize the way you do your business. I think first and foremost, Zoho is a productivity business too. It is a cloud productivity tool for businesses. That is the first thing. Our experience in the community has been a bit of a pleasant surprise. How much goodness they are able to pack within their products. It is a very affordable rate compared to what you have in the market. Apparently, they are pricing. They are pricing like anything you can find in the ecosystem today. And I think I like their strategy of going to places where the so-called bigger boys are neglecting to go to.
