I'm an everyday woman, woman, woman, I'm living my life, life, living day by day.  Stacy, I'm going to check in with you because you're a career woman now, but there was a time you were staying at home, correct? Yes, but it wasn't by choice. I actually got laid off when I was eight months pregnant and so I had to stay home. But to your question, there's nothing wrong with staying home if that's your choice, educated or not. And I don't think education goes to waste, particularly if you're a mom, so to your question. Absolutely, and I think it depends on your family situation as well, because in my particular case, my background in education really helped me advocate for my children. So by staying at home, I could provide my experience and education to help them in school and get the best services they possibly could need. Oh, what do you think of it? No, I'm a, if you don't use it, you lose it. And also, if you, education is wasted if it's not applied. Does that translate into? Can you apply it to your children? Education is designed to be well-rounded so it can make you very organized, it can make you make good use of your time, be accountable for things. Let me ask you this Madison, do you mean having adult conversation? Because that can support, I mean if you're educated, you have a degree and all day long you're looking at Sesame Street. That's one thing. But if you're having intellectual dialogue, that's another. What's your point? Which one is it? Well, it's kind of, it's a little bit of both, because I do think that if you're, yes, education all around, if you get educated, that's absolutely fabulous. However, it's what goes into mothers once they become stay-at-home moms, because it's not always by choice. Sometimes it's about having family, and family dictates what direction you're going to go. But don't you feel like you're losing yourself with your children? But then, are there other people who will look at themselves? Well, I'm asking you because I'm curious, I don't mean to offend anyone, especially somebody that's watching. But I know probably everybody, I don't have children, so everybody's probably going to hate me at this moment right now. But I am so anti, I feel like it is a waste. Well, I mean I, yes, I can see your point of view, and I understand that. And at some point I think a lot of times mothers feel that way. They feel like they've become lost in their children. But you know what, I have a lot of friends who work in the industry, and they lose themselves in their career. You know, all of a sudden they move along, and they don't have any family, they don't have, you know, they don't have a good network around them, because they were too busy working. Well, I think too, if you use your education and your expertise, you've got the internet. The kids go to bed, they take naps.  You can go blog, you can stay informed, you can use another medium. You may not go in the direction you wanted to, but you got to stay. Because I think that, you've touched a nerve there. I think society, it's accepted to be locked to lose yourself in your career. But to say that you're taken away from your children, you know, that's when you get those fighting words. And I go, speaking to that education point, because as parents we're supposed to be end all, to be all for our children. You know what, Madison, on that, at some point we have to show them forward progression. Exactly, and to show them education is important. And how you use it may change, but it's still there. Well, I guess I'm alone on this, because I'm not a parent. I don't have children. But all I do know is that if, I mean, with children, I wouldn't be able to do half the things I do. Well, that is the truth of having children. That is the truth. But it just changes. And the other point is, whatever your talents and your background is, it changes. You can morph it into something else and include your family. But I'm pro at not having children right now. Well, there's some good time for everything. There's some good things, like when you get to that point where you want children to get there, I just don't want to lose myself. I understand that. It's just, what I was thinking, when I said that earlier, what I meant is, there are a lot of women who grow out. They're very highly educated. And then they have their families, and then they feel like they have to let go of themselves and raise their families. And I agree that the focus shifts. But that doesn't mean that you let go of your education. It doesn't mean that you let go of who you are and what moved you forward. There are ways to stay connected to what it is that... How many of you actually, how many people do you know that when you got a college education, that are actually doing what they got their degree from? Absolutely. Things change all the time. You can always refresh your skills. You can keep your skills updated at all times. Just because you're not using it at that moment, what you went to school for, doesn't mean you can't use it later or transition it into something else. But the most important thing is stay current.  So I would tell every woman, if you're going to do that, stay current. Stay abreast. Study your craft. And I would hate for somebody to not get an education because they had the preconceived notion that it wasn't worth it and wasn't a good thing. We have so much to talk about in this conversation. So don't go away. When we come back, we'll have more discussion on it. Coming up next, more Every Way Woman. This is Every Way Woman, and we're getting to know our co-host, Sanita, a little bit more. So you've always been a working mom, but now you're going to take the jump outside of the home. Why? Well, you know, I have always been working from home, and that was a real challenge. But now I'm launching this brand new morning show, and it starts, I have to be at the studio at 5 a.m. That is early. It is so early. I'm not a morning person. I don't actually have a 5 a.m. girl. But you know, I adapted. I'm going to get there. But the hard part is, you know, I'm not going to be able to see my baby in the morning.  You were there when he woke up, and now you're not going to be.  Do you have mommy guilt for this? I don't have mommy guilt because, I guess, you know, we both have taken baby steps to get to this point. You know, little by little, I started out working from home while he was there, and that was the biggest challenge, honestly. Just trying to get stuff done when he's there. It was really hard to do. Then it got a little bit easier. He started going to preschool, so I had some time to focus on work. And now that he's going to preschool, you know, it's, we've both transitioned to be able to do this. But I get to miss a big chunk of time.  How does this affect that dynamic? That was also a huge challenge because, you know, he's already busy at work. He has long hours and all of that. And then to tell him I needed him to do more, you know. What was his reaction? First? Yeah, I might not be able to repeat it on television. Okay, that's fair. He's come along, and I really appreciate it. I, you know, I really value that he's taking this on and excited about it now because now he gets to have that time that he was missing. Are you going to miss the time for you that you had alone? I mean, now you're going to be working outside your home. That was you time. With, for myself? Yeah, for yourself. Yeah, you know, that's a challenge with moms, you know.  That's already eliminated. So why do this? Because it's exciting. I'm so excited about this morning's show. I've been working for it for a really long time to get to this point. And it's just going to be a fun thing to do. So I'm completely ready for it. Well, we look forward to following you on your journey. Stay tuned for more Every Way Woman. When we come back, we'll be getting to know our co-hosts even more. We'll be right back.  Well, you know, it was really hard because it was going to add to his, his day and his stress level. And at first he was just, he was like, no, I don't want to do this. But he's really come on board. But the thing is, for most moms, the challenge is I'm going to have to do the prep work to get him ready so that it's as smooth and seamless as possible. So you're still actually doing it all just beforehand? Exactly. And making it as easy so he doesn't, you know, get stressed out and complain about it. Do you just not trust him to do that part? It's not the trust. He's really, he can do it. But you know, with moms, we always have to take on more because we don't complain. No. And your way is the right way, right? No, no. And most of the time, most of the time, I know you can do that. We'll be right back getting to know more of every way woman. Stay tuned. Stay with us. We'll be right back. And we are back with my co-host, Jeslyn, who is known for her signature salads. What are we making today? Yes, ma'am. We're making my favorite. It's a strawberry spinach salad. Strawberries are good year-round here in California. So lucky us. I brought my chef's hat. But you don't need to be a chef to make a good salad, which is the best part. So we're going to start with the spinach. If you could chop that for me. Okay, how do I chop it though? Just, I mean, give it a good chop. Chop it about into four, the whole pile. Interesting. I prefer to have salad, any kind of greens, chopped. Even do this in a restaurant. You can ask them to do it in the back. I never chop salad. It's the best. You get more of the extra bits in the bite.  I'm not a rabbit. I'm guilty for that. I just want to get a few greens. Is this okay? That is perfect. Okay. All in the salad. Okay. The great thing about salads too is that the recipe doesn't have to be exact. So these are my favorite ingredients for the salad. But you can add a little of this and that as you prefer. Okay. So next we're going to add some couscous. Couscous. I've never had that with you once. I introduced Anna to couscous. She thought it was super exotic, but it's as easy as rice. All you have to do is take one cup couscous. To one and a half cups of water. You're going to cover it. Let it simmer 5-10 minutes and you've got it. I just keep it right in my fridge already ready to go. So I can just add a little bit of this. You can also add quinoa or something like that. How much do you put? You know, as much as you like. I don't want my salad to be too grainy. Okay. So I would probably put half a cup and leave the other half cup in the fridge for yourself. Got it. Then I like to add some red pepper. You want to go ahead and do that. With the red pepper we already have it diced up. Because I like to have some big chunks of red pepper in there. Interesting. Okay. And look how colorful it makes the salad. It does. I mean really. Who wants to eat beige? Is there a specific amount? No. As much as you want. I would probably say like a quarter cup red pepper. Maybe two. Then we're going to go to the chopped onion.   Especially before a day. So do we put a little bit or a lot? Put it all in there because we're going to disguise it. So then just give this a good toss when we're done with it. And nobody will even know the red onions in there. It's completely disguised. So for protein I like to add nuts. You could add chicken if you want. But I add slivered almonds. You want to just add maybe not all of those. Just a little bit. Also gives it a little crunch. What kind of onion is that? It's not an onion. That's an almond girl. So then I add some dried cranberries. You can add if you need trail mix or whatever dry food you have in your house. Put them all in there. And my last but not least the strawberries. The best part of the salad. Strawberries with onions and red peppers. I know. Who knew, right? So put it as much as you want on there. Because you really want a strawberry in every single bite, right? Oh god, these are good. Okay. They're so good. And then just a little dash of black pepper. Your favorite fat-free balsamic vinaigrette. Little olive oil. Whatever dressing you prefer. Genius. Who knew it would be that easy to get. Jesslyn's recipe on everywaywoman.com. Stay tuned as we get to know more about Every Way Woman. So have a good week right here. It's so good. In every way. Yeah. Yeah. I'm living my life. Living day by day. You break a sweat. We have more coming your way.  A lot of you asked us what is circuit training and if I can do it at home. So we brought in our fitness expert, Lisa Snow, all the way from San Diego. That tells us all about circuit training and how we can do it at home. Yep. All right. So a lot of people do want to know what circuit training is. I sure do. And really what it is, is it's a set of exercises that you do. And what's important to know is that you're going to be timed while doing it. You're going to have your heart rate. It's high intensity training. And you're going to be going through different workouts and you can repeat it or you can change on each one. Okay. So if you're at home, do you need a watch or can you just set a like kitchen timer that you need? Really anything that keeps time. You can look at your clock and watch the second hand just go around. Doesn't really. Okay. And so just make sure you know how much time you're doing it. Because a lot of times I like to do a minute on. Rest for 30 seconds. Go to the next for a minute and keep going on. Okay. So what's a good circuit at home that you can do? So for this, we have our Bosu and we have our dumbbells. And we also, I'm going to give you a body weight exercise that we're going to do. Okay. So with the Bosu, what we're going to do is we're going to start with one foot on, you're going to replace, keep your core tight. And you're going to be doing this for 30 seconds. And you don't think I'm going to hurt myself on this, right? I do not. Okay. You have faith in me. I like that. Okay. So I'm going to time you in three, two, one and go. Okay. All right. Keep it going. Keep it going. Keep the core tight. And just make sure. It's tight. Good job. So we're going to in five, four, three, two, one and rest. Oh, good. I like that. And then you're going to come right here. You're not resting for that long because we're going to go right into thrusters in three, two, one. Pick up the dumbbells and thrust and stand up and extend. Like this. Yep. Keep going. Okay. Faster. Yeah. Keep your heart rate up. Let's go. Okay. I'm going. That's it. And make sure even though you're still going fast and you're trying to keep going through the motions, make sure the form is correct because you don't want to hurt yourself. Yeah. What are good things to remember with form because it's a lot of movement going on. Yes. With squats, you have to make sure your bottom is backing down and make sure your knees don't surpass your toes. In three, two, one and rest. Yep. Okay. Next thing. Workout. Yep. We're done, right? Nope. We're hitting the core next.  And then I'm going to tell you to go faster and you're going to add a hop. All right. In three, two, one and go. There we go. And see with the surga, you hit all different kinds of parts of your body so you get to do a full body workout. There it is. I'd love to talk, but this is quite hard. And pick it up in three, two, one at a hop. Let's go. There it is. Keep it going. I'm going. And three, two, one and rest. Be sure you stand up and get your heart rate going. It sure is. You're good. All right. I'm good. I'm good. So what you would do with that is, again, it's important to keep the time and constantly, really, you're moving. But the rest is important. Don't let your heart rate come to a complete stop, but the heart rate slows down a little bit. And how much of a rest between each one? If you're going for a minute, you can do 15 to 30 seconds in between. And how long should you keep doing this? Repeating. I would do three rounds. Three rounds. Something like this, yeah. Oh, my gosh. And in between each round, once you complete one circuit, you give yourself a little more of a rest. So if you give yourself 30 seconds in between each exercise, you give yourself a minute and then do it all over again. Now my question in doing something like this at home. Yeah. I might, you know, go to the couch because no one's looking. Yes. How do you prevent yourself from taking too long of a rest? The time. You really, it's so important to really stopwatch. You can get anywhere you go and just really be committed to keeping the time because anytime that you are tired and you want to give up, just look down and see how much more time you have left. And if you already got that far, you can make it that much farther. Okay. So what are things like once you've got this down, you know, there's only so many times you can keep going back and forth. How do you add new things in? Well, when you look up, you can look up all different kinds of exercises for each piece of equipment. Everything has so many things you can do. So really I encourage people to see and try different things that they've never tried before. So if you already used your feet on the Bosu, you can turn it over and you can do pushups. So why do pushups like this versus just getting on the ground? The Bosu challenges you a lot because it isn't as stable as the ground. So it makes you use your full body instead of just your arms. Go for it. Because, oh my gosh. And up. Yep. Okay, that's definitely a challenge. Okay. Yeah, that's good stuff. So it's different. It gives you variety and it gives, it lets you have fun with it because really you're at home, you're the one inventing what you want to do and you can get really creative with a circuit. Oh yes, you certainly can. But you know, I just love this because it's such a fun way to keep your workout moving. So thanks, Lisa, for bringing this. You're welcome. And you have no excuses to do a circuit at home. Everyway Woman celebrates tomorrow's stars and today we have Chicago's very own award-winning stand-up comedian, the queen of love. My very funny girl. So tell me, what is it like to be a woman in the man's world of comedy? Okay, well it's challenging. It is. How is it challenging? It's challenging because like men have an expectation of what they think women should say. And shouldn't say? Yeah, and shouldn't say. We're always looked at as a sex symbol no matter what.  And like if you don't do that, then you're looked at differently. So are you looked at differently? I am. Actually, because guys when they see me perform for one, the first thing is that they think that I, they never think I'm the comedian. They think that I am the girlfriend to the comedian that I'm sitting next to. Because you are sexy. And then you do have it going on. Well, women should be sexy, right? All the time.  At times I do. Honestly I want to say I do because it's weird because like the women that are like, I don't want to say less attractive, but the women that are very, like the overweight women, the less attractive women, then they're looked at differently. They're looked at like more serious about the craft. Oh, those unions. Right. And then when women that are more attractive, then they're looked at as like, oh, they're just trying to get into show business. They don't even care about comedy. So it's really challenging because I have to prove that I'm actually a comedian. I do the work. I do open mics. I study. I write. You know what I mean? I do it. I am. And you know, so that's the only way to get respect. So do you think that you've really found your niche in being funny in comedy? You know, I think that slowly but surely is becoming more vivid to me. Yes. Is this your way of expressing yourself? Yes. Definitely. How so? I kind of look at it as like my Sasha Fierce. You know how Beyonce is like, she hit the Beyonce and then like the Sasha Fierce.   Right. And so like this is my chance to be like, you know, who I am inside without caring what people think. Well, let's see your Sasha Fierce. Take it away. Thank you. Okay. So like I said before, I don't know if you guys know I'm from Chicago and I actually, I just got back from a wedding. I came home. I'm just going to say it like this. Like I feel like some traditions just need to die. Like whoever said catching a bouquet at a wedding means you're next to get married. Y'all, that's a lie. I've caught like 13 bouquets. You see this? Nothing. You know what? What's worse is that I feel like weddings give you a false sense of romance, like especially for women. So we have to be careful what type of man we take with us to a wedding. I slipped up. Like I slipped up. Like I took a dude just because he was fine. But he was a sandwich specialist at Jersey Mike's. Y'all laughing. Don't trip. He had a side hustle because y'all know how women, how we love those hustlers. He sold t-shirts out of his cousin car because his car was in transition or something like that. That's what he said. But anyways, like I said, you have to be careful at a wedding because you will get caught up in the hype. You got the flower girl tossing the flowers down. You have the ring bear presenting the ring. Then all the bridesmaids look good because they got on the same color, no matter how big they are. Then all the groomsmen, all the groomsmen, these brothers look good because they have on suits. Let me tell you something about a suit on a man. A suit on a man is an instant upgrade. It'll take you from coach to first class immediately. You could be homeless with no teeth. But if you got a suit on, I might listen to what you have to say is what I'm saying.  He has a suit on, so I automatically forget his flaws. And then now they are exchanging vows. And the bride is saying, oh, baby, I prayed for you. And God sent me my king. And the groom is saying, well, baby, when I met you, I was a boy. And because of you, I'm a man. Y'all, I'm getting so caught up in a hype. I'm looking at this fool thinking about having his babies. Y'all, I got so caught up. I helped him sell t-shirts at the reception. It was like, OK, one for 15. OK, OK, OK, two for 20, two for 20. I started introducing him as my fiancee. Auntie Lara, I want you to meet my fiancee, Jay. Oh, no, I don't know his last name. Just the letter J, not J-A-Y or J-A-E. Last names don't always matter, do they? Not at all. Not at all. Thank you so much for being with us today on Every Way Woman. We look forward to having you back today. OK, very nice to meet you. Thank you. Absolutely.

SCP-1325 Object Class Euclid Special Containment Procedures All 111 specimens of SCP-1325 currently in the Foundation's possession are housed in a large pallidarium at Bio-Research Area 7. The temperature and humidity of the pallidarium are to be kept constant at ranges of 25 to 30 degrees Celsius and 50 to 60% respectively, and the specimens are to be fed two to three times a week on crickets, locusts, earthworms, and baby mice. Any eggs laid by the specimens during Easter are to be given to research staff, whereupon they will either be used for research, fed to class D personnel in order to propagate SCP-1325 or destroyed. Description- SCP-1325 is a species of frog which resembles the Australian green tree frog Latoria cerulia. Genetic analysis confirms that it is closely related to L. cerulia. Foundation zoologists have named it the Easter Frog Latoria pasia. All specimens are anatomically and genetically male, as such it does not sexually reproduce on Palm Sunday as defined by the start of the week before the first full moon after March 21st, and egg will start to grow from the back of every adult specimen of SCP-1325. The egg will develop over the course of the Holy Week until early morning of Easter Sunday when it will detach from SCP-1325's back. The egg will always begin to develop on Palm Sunday, and be laid on Easter Sunday regardless of which date she's holiday fall on any given year. As cases of SCP-1325 have been in countries, Australia, New Zealand and the United States, where the vast majority of the population celebrates Easter, and does so on the date of the first full moon after March 21st. While Easter is not celebrated in any form in most of Papa New Guinea, Port Moresby has adopted Western culture to a considerably greater extent than the rest of the country, and thus this does not rule out the possibility that SCP-1325's reproductive cycle is determined by the local culture. The hard protective shell of the egg consists of a thick layer of a substance which is identical to chocolate and taste, appearance and texture, presumably in order to promote human consumption. Inside the egg is a cluster of more than a dozen small jelly-like eggs similar to those of a normal amphibian, which are nearest and sustained by the yolk sac at the egg albumin. Given that they are clones of the parent, all eggs are genetically identical. Traces of the benzodiazepine derivative drug Przepam have been detected in the yolk sac and albumin. It is thought that Przepam's anxiolytic and sedative properties facilitate human consumption by rendering subjects oblivious to the egg's contents. When the egg is fully developed and ready to detach, SCP-1325 will seek out sites where it is likely to attract human consumption, typically among similar-looking confectionery, before depositing it. The fact that SCP-1325 is able to strategically position its eggs, combined with the fact that it is able to time its reproductive cycle to coincide with Easter, suggests that it is unusually intelligent for an amphibian. However, its behavior outside of its reproductive cycle is identical to that of El Chlorulia. The egg will remain viable for two to four days of being detached from SCP-1325. If and when it is ingested by a human subject, the eggs within that survive ingestion will hatch into tadpoles in response to the temperature and pH of the stomach. The tadpoles then attach themselves to the wall of the stomach via small hooks on the tips of their tails to prevent themselves from passing through the pylorus and into the duodenum along with the chyme. Through the following 10 to 12 days, the tadpoles will feed on the partly digested food in the chyme as they grow and metamorphis into mature specimens of SCP-1325. During this period, the human host will likely experience abdominal discomfort, diarrhea, and loss of appetite to varying degrees of severity. When SCP-1325 specimens are fully developed and able to survive outside the stomach, they will secrete emetic toxins from their skin thereby inducing heavy vomiting in the host, which allows them to exit the stomach. They will also secrete large volumes of mucus in order to lubricate their passage up the esophagus. The host will experience Bohob syndrome, esophageal rupture in around 25% of cases. Footnote 1 This figure is probably an underestimate because it is largely based on data derived from Class D personnel. As all Class D personnel are adults and the vast majority are in their 20s and 30s, there is little data on children and the elderly, groups which can reasonably be expected to be more vulnerable, which skews the statistics downwards. The likelihood of Bohob syndrome is greater in cases where the host contains a large number of SCP-1325 specimens due to a high proportion of the eggs having survived ingestion, and cases where the specimen has remained in the stomach for longer than its typical and thus grown quite large. In cases where both these factors are present, the likelihood of Bohob syndrome is close to 100%. Once the specimens have exited the host, they will continue to grow for around 6 months before reaching adult size.


Hello Aces, welcome back to module two, lesson number seven. Today we're talking about crafting your value proposition so then that way your restaurant can stand out. What you'll learn today is how do you properly create a value proposition so then that way you can communicate that to your customers. We laid the foundation, we've done all the work previously in the last six lessons and this is the lesson where you're gonna be able to communicate this to your customers. What is a value proposition? Some might ask, a value proposition is a clear statement about the outcomes that a customer can realize from using your products and services. What it is not, okay? So it's simply put it is basically what your customers can expect to get from you. What it is not is the fact that it is not a slogan. We're not creating this as a slogan. It should be able to convey what the delivery, what the results are, what the impact from using and dining at your restaurant. It is not a description of your services. We're not talking about best ice cream. That is not a value proposition. This is also not information about your company, your products or your services. This is not what a value proposition is. Examples of some good propositions that I've seen in the past is that simply authentic Italian. This gives and conveys a message to me that if I dine in this Italian restaurant, it is not gonna be some mass-produced franchise, pre-packaged frozen goods. It seems like that, oh, this gives me a feeling of I should be expecting that fresh pasta. I should be expecting everything made from like the grandma's recipe. This is exactly what they're serving and simply authentic Italian really conveys that message, especially for me. The second example would be you'll love your meal or it's free. The value proposition is so simple. It's like, if you don't like it, you get your money back, risk free, guaranteed. And if you can actually put this as your value proposition because you stand so firm and you're so confident in the value and the quality of your meals, then kudos to you. Then you can put this as your value proposition as well. Now, how do you find your selling proposition? There are steps to this and I'm gonna go over it with you. First of all, you need to define your target segment. We did this in lesson 2.4. Second is what problems do you face, or not you, but the day face? We talk about that in lesson 2.5. What is the scope? 2.6. What is the solution? Solution becomes that offer that you're offering your customers and what is the benefit for your customers? After you have identified all these, you can kind of put it together and offer that as a solution or as a message that you're gonna convey to your customers. For example, with 720 suites, our target market are the college students. The problem that they face is that they don't usually have a place because they're either in the dorm room or at their parents' place. They need a place to hang out, chill, chill with their friends. The scope. We are providing new and unique dessert experiences with friendly services. The solution, we are building a culture around a new modern edition of desserts that are photogenic. That's our solution that we wanna provide through our dessert items, through our offering as well. What is the benefit they get from it? They get a unique dessert experience and social engagement, uplift in status, all these good things by thumbdining at our ice cream shop. This is what you need to craft. Now, looking at this, looking at all these answers and the solutions that you are providing for your customers, then you can come up with a value proposition that really is concise, packs this all together into one sentence that you can actually send and actually communicate with your ideal customers.

Welcome to this short introduction to the core concepts of knowledge graphs. The idea of a knowledge graph is quite simply to take domain knowledge what we know within a field and structure it in the form of a graph. A graph is nothing more than a network and if you are not already familiar with graphs and networks I strongly recommend that you go watch my introduction to the core concepts and network biology before continuing to watch the rest of this presentation. Here I'll go over the types of data sources used to build knowledge graphs, the challenges of combining them into heterogeneous networks, how we store these graphs subsequently, how we query them and lastly how they can be used in practice. There are two main types of data sources going into knowledge graphs. Ontologies which contain formal descriptions of concepts and how they are related to each other. A good example of that is genontology which for example has the structure of a cell in the form of concepts and relations. We also take a lot of information from databases, this includes information about entities such as genes and proteins and relations between them which could be functional associations between proteins like you would get them from the string database and disease gene associations which you could get for example from the diseases database. This knowledge can either come from manual curation of the literature or by automatically text mining the literature. It's important to understand that even though we have knowledge in these databases they are normally not considered knowledge graphs themselves. To have a knowledge graph you normally need to have a heterogeneous network, that is we need many node types and many edge types all within a single network. The result would look something like this where you have genes and diseases and drugs and many other types of concepts with many types of relations between them all in one network. The challenge of building this is that you need to combine many sources of data which all come in different formats and use many different identifiers for the same things. For this reason almost all knowledge graph efforts build on top of existing integrative databases that already took all the relations we have for one particular type and combined it into a database. Once we've made a graph we need to somehow store it. You can of course store it in a relational database but since you've just structured everything as a graph the obvious choice is to store it in a dedicated graph database such as Neo4j. The advantage of this is that the database inherently has graph structure that is it has nodes and edges and associated with those you have node properties and edge properties which you can use to store any other data about these nodes and edges. This includes provenance information that is where you got them from and where people can find more information. Once you have things in a database you need to be able to query it efficiently to make use of it. That is we need a query language that allows us to quickly access nodes, fetch edges between them or find the first neighbors of a node. If you stored data in a relational database you would do that using SQL. If you stored in Neo4j you would use the Cypher language instead. The advantage of the latter is that it allows you to do more complex graph operations such as for example finding the shortest path between any two nodes in the network. However it has to be said that in practice you don't often need this and for that reason the advantages of storing things in a graph database are somewhat academic. Lastly a few biomedical examples what do we use knowledge graphs for. Knowledge graphs have been used for doing gene disease prediction that means trying to find new associations between diseases and genes. This can be done by looking for metapath in a knowledge graph so that is looking for indirect associations where a gene and a disease are both linked to the same intermediate concepts. It's similarly been used for drug repurposing that is trying to find new uses for existing drugs by linking drugs to other diseases that they are not currently used for by looking at complex subgraphs like this. Lastly and most recently it's been used for clinical decision making starting from clinical proteomics data and then using a knowledge graph to identify which are the best drugs to use for this particular patient that we have proteomics data for. This work was done by my collaborators at CPR. It's important to understand that all these knowledge graph efforts build heavily on open licenses. It's impossible for even a group to build a solid knowledge graph of everything we know. Everybody builds on top of existing databases and that's only possible because the types of integrative databases that I make are openly licensed. And thankfully the knowledge graphs themselves are also openly licensed allowing everybody to build on top of what others have already done. It's also important to keep in mind that what matters when you work with knowledge graphs is the data in the graph. If you have good data, if you have a good graph, you can do a lot of useful things with it. If you have bad data, you can't. It matters a lot less how exactly you store the data. You could always store it in a different way. That's not a lot of work. Building a new knowledge graph is a lot of work. That's all I have to say about knowledge graphs. If you're interested in data integration in general, I suggest you go watch this presentation as well. Thanks for your attention.


Well hello there. Mark Risen Hopkins coming to you once again from South by Southwest 2011. I am here with Mark Phillip. The founder, yeah founder, making sure I get the title right. I called someone a founder when they were a CEO earlier and that didn't work. The founder was over there, got mad. So founder of are you watching this? And this is a website that alerts you when excitement happens in a sporting event. Have I encapsulated that right? I think you got it all. And don't worry about the title. It's the one-man shop. You can call me the janitor. You can call me whatever you want. Chief bottle washer. I'm familiar with that title, yeah. Exactly. So basically I've built a site that I've always wished existed. I hate more than anything missing great games, whether it's a no-hater through eight and I was sleeping or a triple overtime game and I was doing laundry. So I've built an engine that's able to figure out in real time if games are exciting and alerts you to run to the couch. That that sounds like a very necessary thing, very simple, but there's a lot of as you get into this, there's a lot of stuff going on the back end. There's a lot of stuff going on. Finding out what's exciting for a human is pretty easy. How did you get a computer to do this? Well a lot of it has been pretty tough and there's almost this philosophical question of if you have an NBA game that's tied with 30 seconds to go and you have a WNBA game that's tied with 30 seconds to go should the engine treat them the same because the followers it's slightly different in scale. So our objective is to have an engine that is completely cold treats everyone the same. So we sort of layer in users as well so you have this cold objective engine and then you have these very passionate by definition subjective fans and we blend those two together. So the opinion of the engine plus the opinions of the fans when you roll it all together you get the best signal of the games exciting or not. That's interesting so and you're pulling in social signals as well as stats and live stats in some cases or all cases. In all cases if the alert doesn't get sent out soon enough then we've kind of lost the whole reason for setting up. Right. The worst thing I can do is send out an alert that is by the time the person gets to the couch the game is already over. Right. At least they feel even worse that way because they missed a great game. So speed is very important real time is important. We process on some days as many as 500 games one in four days as over 100 sporting events. But our goal is to get an alert out. We run all of our calculations in under 100 milliseconds. So within the 10th of a second we're able to figure out is this game good or not and get the alert to the person within 30 seconds. Generally that's enough from the time we get an update to the time they can get to the couch that if there was a commercial break they get to the couch the game is starting right back up again. So tell me about because you've got a community that it's a lot of crowdsourcing going on. What role does that play in how your operation works. There are super fans. You know they're kind of like the editors that you might see on Wikipedia. There are point zero zero zero one percent of fan that no matter what the sport is they're going to watch it. If it's extra innings in little league they're going to run to the couch to watch it. So we're very focused on getting that super fan to help us curate the data because really the the main goal is to take this engine take this community and bring the data to the living room. That's our holy grail. If you're watching two and a half men might want to do these days. Yeah may have some problems with that now but yeah. Incindication most likely. And you get alert this is hey there's a triple overtime game two channels over or like there was today Northwestern is giving Ohio State a heck of a game. Maybe you want to run to the couch right now. You sort of take it to the next level of you're at South by Southwest all week. You can tell your DVR. I like the Longhorns like the Cowboys and everything ACC basketball. Start recording anytime anything interesting happens. Sports is the most DVR resistant genre on TV to steal from Mark Cuban. And it's a complete troublemaker. All sports fans and all non sports fans have dealt with the issues of trying to record something that sports either gets in the way of or runs long and you miss the end of a game. With our technology we're able to marry TV listings and sports data to really solve that that troublemaking genre of sports. Whether it's extending a game when it runs long pausing recording when there's a rain delay or if you're recording something where it gets preempted by sports we can automatically and proactively shift back the recording so you don't miss the end. Okay so I want to talk about DVR integration because that's something that's really interesting to me but before we do that I want to talk about like your social signals because there's two aspects of that. It's very interesting to me and probably our audience is first of all you've got to be processing a massive amount of social stream data which is you know really kind of the theme of the year is big data and how we how you manage that what tools you're using to to flume that in and what tools you're using to analyze that because semantic is just as much a part of sentiment analysis is just much a part of dealing with big data as housing it can be. So let's talk a little bit about that first. What what what's what are you doing with on the social signal side? It's we've been selective because there is so much data out there. You know big picture wise our goal is to whittle down information to curate with so many games so many channels so many teams so many leagues popping up every day. We really want to whittle it down so we play with certain things we look at Google Trends lightly we look at Twitter lightly the problem with streams like that sometimes is that it's over weighted to the most popular teams. You're always going to see more tweets about the Yankees and the Cowboys and the San Francisco Giants because they're popular teams. So we dabble in those but understand that we want to be unbiased because our main goal is to make sure we have a very accurate engine. The whole NBA versus WNBA thing. Exactly. So if you if you waited strictly there are problems so we try to normalize as much as possible and we definitely pick out for certain cues but we try not to rely on it completely. I think for any site if you rely completely on users completely on social streams you're going to get just the popular teams. If you focus just on algorithms you're going to get games that might seem good on paper but you'll miss sort of the subtleties. I think it's important to mix those two to really the objective side is interesting because it's so structured and so metered. The social side is interesting because it's overwhelming. It's like trying to take a drink from a fire hose. Yeah exactly. And if you're able to get those two together in the right way with the right blend that's generally when you do the best. Right. So you're basically normalizing as an interesting approach to that. That's a term I'm familiar with as someone that does audio engineering hadn't really thought about it as applied to social stream signal data. But so you normalize the streams and you apply I guess some sort of scoring to that and then compare that as an element of like the stats and other elements that you're using in terms of of excitingness factors in games. Trailing averages are huge for us. If you look at just the social streams understanding that people are always talking about the Yankees. So things have to be relative. It's really important on the objective side we use trailing averages also because engines actually able to learn and understand which games are going to be good before they actually even happen. It understands Yankees Red Sox. It understands Texas OU Duke UNC because able to look at the past games understand what people have done previously which games were exciting and understand OK these teams always play good games. This game coming up in three weeks. You need to make sure you're in front of the TV. Right. Very interesting. So let's let's go back to talk about the integration is this is where it's all this is where it's all going is is almost a divorced experience from the cable providers and the telco providers. Yeah. Sports is probably one of the last hooks that keeps you in there. You've got you've got a you know Xbox and ESPN doing that thing. Yeah. I guess it was a ESPN three is what they call it. It's in some places obviously not a hundred percent coverage of all all the sports. Everybody's going to watch. But you see stuff starting to go that way. And of course the the major providers are also enhancing the experiences through the DVR's. What are you guys looking at. Where do you see everything going. And where are you focusing your efforts in terms of integration of these experiences. My big word is curation. You know whittling down the noise. You have two point five million different combinations of zip and postal code cable and satellite provider across the US and Canada. No site out there really does a good job of telling you here's a great game. Here's the channel number to turn to. It's that simple frustrating thing that we all deal with this yelling of I can't find the game. Someone tell me where it is. So the ability to whittle down these hundreds and hundreds of channels we get and tell you here's what you should watch. You're the top three things that matter to you. Click on one and we'll take you right to it. Right. We have a proof of concept Google TV app that's out right now that does exactly that. And it's the only app I've seen that actually changes the channel for you that actually complements the content coming over the pipe. ESPN is a juggernaut. They get four dollars plus a sub a month for everyone that has it. And they are the glue that is holding the cable together for a lot of people. So and we just came from the Samsung lounge where they're showing off these TVs with all this app integration. One of the most troubling things for me because we do a lot of video obviously and we're we're trying to figure out the best distribution strategy on as an independent producer. You know we can't go straight to cable. You know that's a big investment. You know come up with a million dollar bucket of dollars and you know then you're then you're good but we got to go kind of more the DVR approach the Xbox approach the mobile approach. But when we look at the the opportunities with apps on TVs it's exciting at first until you see the fractured landscape of all these different app platforms. You're obviously in that world too. So what are your what are your thoughts on the fracturing of these app platforms. I think it's very similar to what we saw on mobile. I think there will be a similar land grab as well when the set top boxes finally become robust enough to support these apps. It is something that we're going to have to deal with. I don't think there is going to be this sort of HTML5 underlaying layer that will be able to develop to the way we did with our mobile apps. I think they're always going to be fractured and it's something that's very frustrating. Do you see it living on the TV or do you see like players like PlayStation Xbox and and like Foxy and Roku coming up underneath and supplanting any apps that may live on a TV. I think yes and yes and then there's even the Comcasts of the world. They are coming out with new set top boxes later this year that are going to blow people away. I can't remember his name. A guy came from Plaxo. Runs social. Mike Berkley maybe? Ryan Cain?  Sometimes. But in terms of being social savvy I think they probably got a better handle on it than most of the cable co-telco providers. Absolutely their social technology group is very sharp and I think they're really going to lead the way for the next generation of set top boxes. The type of boxes that I've been waiting years for when you bring an app like mine into a platform like that. I think you can create some really compelling experiences. We love the Red Zone channel. I remember Flying Cross Country one Sunday on JetBlue and the Red Zone channel made the trip feel like it was an hour long and it was the best trip I've ever taken. Imagining it to the point where you have a Red Zone channel for every sporting event on TV. Being able to bounce from great game to great game from buzzard beater to overtime thriller. I think there's a lot of innovation that can be done in the living room. So how deep do you go into the sports? Do you go all the way like ESPN 8, the Ocho? We cover it all. Everything. So Little League if it's if there's some fans around there ready to curate the data you got it. We got it all. If you give me a feed I will give you an algorithm for it. Anything from NASCAR to minor league hockey to minor league arena football which until a couple years ago I didn't realize even existed. Yeah, that's pretty awesome. All right. Well, I really appreciate you taking the time. Thank you. You can go check it out at are you want are you watching this dot com? That's right. No, yep. There you go. So go check it out. Really cool stuff here at South by Southwest. We'll come at you more with, we'll come at you. See if I can close this out and buy a vowel.  Don't go away.

If you join that Discord server, I will give you one additional entry as well. That being said, let's get into today's video. Hey everyone, we're going to be talking about something today that I just I've literally taken days to wrap my mind around this. I saw this tweet a little bit ago, it actually originated on tic-tac. We're talking about an organization that has gone after Nintendo and other gaming companies in the past, for seemingly reasons that they really shouldn't be doing it. It's an organization that is frequently hated on and they are definitely the kings of all publicity is good publicity. We're talking about PETA. Now, before I get into this, some people might say, why even talk about PETA? Why even talk about anything that they have to say? And yes, this has to deal with animal crossing. And why give them the attention reality is they already are known worldwide and have a much bigger following than me and any attention I give them doesn't really matter to me. I don't think there's anything wrong with negative attention. If you're just going to make fun of them, and if you look at 90% of a PETA's tweets and other things like almost all the comments are people that just really don't like the organization. Now, this isn't me saying that I support animal cruelty. This isn't me saying that there aren't some positive things that PETA might do. I'm sure, you know, if I dig through the laundry list of actions, there's some positive there. But you could say that about a lot of people. It's a strange company, but they pick their fights in a very weird way. And a few days ago, they picked another fight with animal crossing. Now, when animal crossing horizons came out, they gave an all vegan guide to play in the game or whatever. But they are going to step further now and try to do active protest in the game against blathers. Now, I need to remind you blathers is an owl, owls eat fish. They don't always eat their prey humanely. They are predators. And honestly, being put in a tank is probably a bit more humane than what blathers would typically do to prey, because hello owls are birds of prey. But that's the other side of the point. Let's get into what they posted. So as you see here, this originally was posted on their TikTok account, because TikTok is a big deal, I guess, apparently these days on the social media platform. This is a cultural reset. So just sit back and watch this for about 30 seconds. So they got fish belonging in the ocean, empty the tanks, a bunch of custom made PETA shirts, or they are just yelling nonstop. And so on someone's island, they made it sound like after the fact this wasn't one of their islands, we have no idea whose island it was. You can see a couple fish in the background, fish are friends, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, rather silly. Blathers encourages villagers to take fish out of their natural habitats so he can trap them in tiny tank. That's that's what they claim. Toblathers to empty the tanks. This is the master of trying to get publicity for any reason possible. Animal Crossing is a video game. Alright, Animal Crossing is a game where a lot of animals have humanoid features. It is a game where everything is based around animals. That's the name. And there's no actual real animal cruelty happening in the game. It's all virtualized fake stuff. But PETA will take anything they can to gain publicity from it in hopes that they can find a couple people that agree with them. And in finding those couple people agree with them, it kind of grows their following. I think we have a million followers on Twitter or whatever.  I made it sound that way before we even got into it. Because Blathers himself is a prey owl. They prey on things and kill them. Lions, the way they take out gazelles. Most prey animals are not exactly humane about how they go about things. And us humans, as you know, a form of mammal that can eat meat and whatever. Like we can eat a whole wide variety of stuff. We're actually probably more humane about how we deal with a lot of our meat processing than a lot of actual prey out there. But that's neither here nor there. I'm not here to tell you to eat meat or not be vegan or whatever.  I definitely am against animal cruelty and many facets. But I just feel like an organization like PETA doesn't target things. I feel like the way they should.  They shouldn't be focused so much on a video game just to get attention. And the attention they're going to get is 99% negative. And they know it because they will later turn around. They did this, right? A cultural receivable. This was posted on May 19, 2020. But when you go to their, their account, you'll see the very next day they pin something. Now that we have your attention, clearly, they made the tweet just to get people's attention. Please see what happens to animals in real life. And yeah, they're going to show you some crude treatment of cows and stuff here. And it's true that like there are some pretty inhumane treatment of animals at some facilities. And this is the stuff that they should be focused on, I guess. But why use animal crossing to get their point of I mean, look at that. Look at that. They have they have 500 likes on this 1.4 K comments, by the way, most of it just negative and attacking them and trying to show how hypocritical that PETA is 396 retweets.  Most of the people that saw this animal crossing post are not looking at that new post they use. So they used animal crossing to try to get attention so they could draw attention to say you know cruelty to cows. And it didn't work. They pinned it even and it didn't work.  So I mean, solve animal cruelty by being cruel to an animal by attacking this fictional character in a fictional game with fictional fish. It didn't work. It didn't get them to the desired result. They got all this attention over animal crossing, but they didn't get any more attention on that PETA post and they did on any of their other PETA posts. I mean, just looking back at this, you know, they're getting hundreds of likes and retweets and comments like they're not getting any more than they normally get. So it didn't work. Stuff like this frustrates me.  Like it's just it's gotten ridiculous. When you scroll down, look at this, PETA put up this a while back. Steve Irwin, right? Animal Activist, all that stuff. Of course, they're not going to like him because he has a zoo, his family owns a zoo.  I mean, he was snorkeling or whatever. I believe it was snorkeling. Maybe he was maybe the scuba diving. I'm not exactly sure. And he thought it was a completely different animal. He made a mistake, right? Sucks. He dangled his baby while feeding. Like nothing he has done has been dangerous to the animals or dangerous to his family. But he's dead. And it's easy for them to go after him. When Steve Irwin and the Irwin family are some of the biggest animal activist rights out there, like they do problem and maybe more positive for for animals than actual PETA does. Like PETA just doesn't care. They just do not care. They are at the extreme of the extreme end of animal cruelty. And again, it just it frustrates me. There are real things happening out there that need to be addressed, but animal crossing and video games don't need to be drug into it. This isn't a video game that's about slaughtering animals. Like you're not taking the fish and skinning them and eating them. You're not, you know, beating them against walls. Yeah, you put them in fish tanks. Okay, cool. Good luck getting most of the world to agree with you that putting fish in idealistic water conditions with consistent food is suddenly bad. There are cases where it is there are some fish that aren't like do well in captivity. There's a reason that you don't see great white sharks, you know, in in captivity, because it's been proven through various attempts at it that we just can't create an environment in captivity that that's possible with that they're happy in.  Good luck getting most of the world to agree with you that they don't. Anyways, I'm sure all those fish want to be tossed back in the ocean where they're just going to be eaten by another predator. Alright, folks, anyways, I am defender of the dance from the center prime. I obviously think that this is pretty ridiculous, but you guys let me know what you think about it all. I enjoy getting a good laugh. It took me days to wrap my mind around it.  So I don't know. Sometimes I wish these activist groups did better at what they claim they're around to do. Anyways, that's all I got to say. Subscribe for more content. Catch you guys in the next video.


It's really bored. How much farther do we have to go? The real reviewer does what it takes, Olivia, to make it work. Make it work right. This is my Jungle Book confessional tape. I'm a little concerned about my daughter. We saw the movie. She loved it almost to an odd, infatuational extent. She's developed some sort of a weird British accent or an accent of sort. I think she's trying to be like the boy in the film. Needless to say, I'm concerned. My favorite part of the movie is when the snake comes. She is very, very cool. Maybe if we stay out in the woods by this tree run enough, the wolves will come and take me away so I can grow up in the jungle. Oh, Daddy. This is my favorite movie, this Jungle Book. By the way, what if a snake comes to attack us from the top of the branch? I wonder if there's any poison ivy around here, or a tiger, some wolves or something. Um, Shagon? No. Not scary for me. I'm way too big to see that. Who is your favorite character in the movie? Um, that's hard to say. I don't know. Um, let me think for a moment. No, I know. The snake, the tiger, and that little boy in the rose in the panther too. But the bear kind of was a pathetic person because he needed the boy to help a lot.  But blue is pretty much the awesome. What blue is the bear? So is the bear good or is he not cool?  So I asked her a series of questions about the film. She was all over the place, who her favorite character was, what characters were weaker, if it was scary. I didn't really get anything too clear or concise, but the bottom line is she really took a liking to the film. I did as well. I thought it was very well done, beautifully shot. The CGI is top notch. It's, I mean, it's a full Disney animation as far as I'm concerned. It's incredible. The score is amazing. The acting from the kid is top tier. This boy's going to win some awards or he should. He's an up and comer for sure. Is she dead back there or? Okay, no, she's fine. Good parenting. What would you give the movie for a score? One being the worst and 10 being the best? 10 being the best. Do you want to give it like an eight or a nine? You think it's a 10? You think it's a perfect movie? Yes. There's no problems with it. Is it too long? No, it's fine. So throw and throw. I wonder if that would have- Did you think the animals looked real? The animals looked real while the baboon? Yes, yes, yes. I think they looked real. But how could the boy possibly live in a jungle? He'd die. I was surprised at how much it followed the beat by beat plot of the Lion King. There's death early on. There's the running away. There's the learning the whole Hakuna Matata thing, owning up to everything, going back for that final confrontation. It's extremely Lion King playbook. That's not a bad thing. It's just something I noticed. There's even a stampede in the gorge and Simba's down there. Simba's down there. The movie is so well done. I'm being redundant at this point, so I can just wrap it up. This movie is a nine out of 10 for me. Olivia, did you like the snake in the movie? I don't know what that- I don't know what that voice is.


Um, we had games real live games and it was nuggets and it was warriors and the nuggets win seven straight 19103 yokich, uh, duh third straight double double his 18th of this season jamal murray with 27 step had 20 He was six of 19 by the way Um, yokich, you know, we don't really talk about yokich as making statements or at least I don't put him in that Kind of a category, but was the statement made last night chandler I think this is just business as usual. This is what this guy does It's insane when you see the stats of the leaders every night This guy's in it. He's at the top of it for points rebounds and assists Really consistently and it's not this team is just a mature team I'm watching this game yesterday and they get down big and they just never Put their head down. They continue to chip away jamal murray I'm healthy as a whole another dynamic that they are going to need to contend this year But yokich is special man the way he plays There's another guy in sacramento that's getting really close to him and plays very similar to him But this guy he's unbelievable. He's the best player in the mba. He's looking like he's kind of went another mvp And it is fun when you see him do it against a great defender like draymond green and the guy's seen every coverage He's seen double team. He's seen blitzes. He's he's you know going to get smaller guys bigger guys There is he's like a luke donkage where there's no way to guard him because he's figured out how to beat every single coverage So, uh, it's really impressive and the nuggets the nuggets they look good They look really good and they just continue to get better. They're a mature team Their role players know their role erin gordon has been special for them Kcp has been great for them Yeah, I'd love to see them get a little bit more from these young guys from the christian brown from the payton watson But there's still time for that and and they just have a great balanced overall team led by this dude who's unbelievable Lou Uh-oh, do we lose Lou? I don't know really channel said it No, I was no I was just I was listening to channel and I was I was trying to digest everything he's saying But no, this is like channel mentioned. This is business as usual. This is nothing special to us You know, he's he's top five and triple doubles now So it's not even fun to even hear about it anymore. It's just regular thing He just bet on it, which uh, you know, I did hit that partly the other night. No big deal Uh, but the nuggets by the way seven straight ten of eleven against this particular warrior's team Look, I don't even know how realistic these chances were to begin with but A loss like this and this many of these losses. Lou can we rule out the warriors as possibly contending? Listen any team that has Steph Curry on if they get into playoffs I still feel like there's hope there's going to be light at the end of the tunnel However, they're fighting for their playoff lives and it's something missing Something it's it's a mojo thing with me with the with the golden state warriors You know, even though they're playing better basketball when they run into these top tier teams They it just looks like something is missing even though they have the core of guys there that they won championships with the Andrew Wiggins the you know the splash brothers and in Draymond I just feel like outside of that They're still very youthful and still have a bunch of young guys that don't know what it takes to get over that hump And you know when you play games like this it shows You don't you don't get a lot of production from your bench players and guys of that nature and it's just tough Yeah, it's it's it's even last night. I'm watching clay Thompson. He's unbelievable on the first half I'm like, oh here comes one of these games clay is going to go nuts It's zero points in the second half and it's it's and I still think he's he's found something with coming off the bench I feel like whether that's anger or that's just him accepting a new role That's him just you focusing now on basketball and not worry about all the outside noise He seemed to getting more comfortable But when you look at they're just their team is they don't have enough Steph Curry when he is an off night like this They have a very small chance of winning games So when he does have a night when he's six of 19 and he's missing pretty good looks to It's detrimental to their offense then Andrew Wiggins has kind of been in this phone call year long We know Draymond's been in another line of coming has shown flashes, but This team just as is I just don't think has enough to contend but lose right Give me to beat Steph Curry four times in the playoffs is very very hard to Do so time will tell but games like this kind of show that they're just they don't have enough I mean we started this season talking about golden state that if Steph wasn't the offense They didn't have one I don't remember how many games in we were when nobody else on that team had 20 points at least 20 points And now he's only averaging 21 on 38 shooting and 29 percent from three over his last four And Steve Kerr has mentioned the fact that he's looks fatigued. I mean, I would say duh to that How could he not be fatigued? But you guys are talking about beating Steph Curry in four games Being a daunting task. How much are we expecting him to have left if they were to make a push in the playoffs? Chandler Well, I think he's got to be there everything for them to have any chance He's going to have to have these outrageous Steph Curry game for He's averaging 35 and he's hitting eight to 10 threes per game because They don't have enough other than him and they're going to get big moments from play Thompson Hopefully Wiggins and and Draymond they can continue to be productive and chipping some some big games and same thing with Pazinski and these young guys, but it's got to be Steph Curry And that's that's not call it not fair go whatever it is But for them to win for them to advance even in the play in He's got to be dominant. He's got to be the best player on the floor, which he usually is And then when he starts getting high when he starts cooking Everything else opens up and gets easy when they're double team and stuff. That's when clay's now getting better looks That's when Kaminga and Wiggins are able to get downhill and get to the rim So it all starts and finishes with Steph Curry on this team for them to have any chance 100 percent a shams. We did have some cuts. Oh, sorry Luke. Go ahead No, I was just gonna say you got to consider, you know for the probably last five or six years You know the golden state warriors are playing an extra month six weeks into the season You know when the 82 games are done, you know, a lot of these guys may be fatigued not just Steph Curry and with him trying to Keep them in a competitive position to push through the playoffs His fatigue may be showing but all of these guys may be tired at this point Except for Draymond. He had some extra rest. He should probably not be fatigued Steve Kerr got some contract new shams. What's uh, he got paid. That's what I'm trying to say. He got paid. What is it? Yeah, two years 35 million dollar contract extension for Steve Kerr This aligns his contract most importantly with Steph Curry. Steph Curry's got two years after this season Now so does Steve Kerr. This is not where negotiations started from uh, from from when they began really last summer Steve Kerr entering the last year of his deal. They've been discussing an extension Since the summertime and I think you can look at Monty Williams contract Greg Popovich's deal Eric Spolster's deal all as templates for what Steve Kerr ended up getting at about 17 and a half per year Greg Popovich, obviously makes the most out of them. Monty Williams is right there at around 17 And then Eric Spolster around 15 a year Joe Lake up the warriors. They want to keep Steve Kerr Steph Curry Clay Thompson, Draymond Green They want to keep these these four together until the wheels fall off. They want to retire them all as warriors. That's the goal For all them. I think this is something that that um, that the Joe Lika personally wants As well And when you think about it, this team has gone 11 and six ever since Draymond Green's been back in mid january They're playing a lot better. They're they're among the league leaders and points Assist rebounds. So they're playing at a high level with Draymond Green back Steve Kerr Gets rewarded with the contract extension for at least the next two years I like that. It feels nice and tidy Everyone if they all leave they all leave at once like I like the way that's playing
