All right. Yeah, we're going to start right now. And thanks for joining. And this is the first session, the first day of the Opus Summit. And once again, welcome to this new session, this three tracing integration with the OpenTelemetry and Knative and Quarkus. So just a quick question. How many people actually have some experience to tracing for your application? And then you guys already heard about the OpenTelemetry platform? That's great. So my name is Daniel Oh. So yeah, I'm going to probably remind myself. So I'm working for Redhead as a developer advocate, also CNCF ambassador. So I've been spent a lot of time to evangelize a cloud-never runtime, specifically like a Java word, more than 20 years, and then like a Java script. And I recently spent a lot of time to integrate the cloud-never runtime, the end-of-project application into sublash, subsmash, and GitOps, Pypronic, ArgoCity, Tectone, et cetera, on top of the Kubernetes. So one of my responsibility, the ambassador, I really like to bring new technology into Kubernetes, as well as a lot of graduate projects. So here's my contact information, like my Twitter and my YouTube channel. Feel free to follow me and subscribe me. If you have any question around this session, as well as like a CNCF and then like a new technology, and just feel free to reach out to me directly. So the first thing, let's try to take a one-step back to try to understand why we need to think about distributed tracing at this moment. And then so many, I mean, couple of decades ago, we have just a few applications on top of the machine, like a VML and IVM, like a bare metal. At a time, we don't have any like tracing tools, just so we have like a, I'm gonna talk a little bit about a little bit later, like an APM tool, application performance management or the monitoring tool, with some nice graphical dashboard. At a time, we just keep monitoring some of the error or information in the production environment. And then, and the microservices was born almost eight years ago, almost nine years ago in 2013 from Spring Boot. And then the more and more application design and an architect based on Microsoft's architecture, and then move forward to immutable infrastructure, aka Kubernetes. And then we have more think about scalability when you run and deploy Microsoft's application on top of that. And then it will deploy and scale maybe 100K application as a pause on Kubernetes. In that case, you gotta keep tracing, monitoring and up there with that application, not only like a single loss, but also like some communication across the Microsoft's application. Here's a quick example, like a user, like a could be SRE, could be system admin, could be application developer. So how to define your application is healthy. So for example, if you already have a bunch of the experience on Kubernetes, the Kubernetes provide the health capability which is like a liveness or the readiness check. The liveness is just run, it's just say your application running on as a part. It's really not crash back off, not failure. And the readiness means your application actually get ready to receive your natural trapping and I could open 8080 pool, like a Tomcat or like a Node.js application, something like that. And then that is the default definition how to define your application is already and healthy. However, you've got some problems, sometimes all my application doesn't working and then you've got to go to that, applicant you're new out there, you've got some error like a 404 error or a 500 error. That is in that case you can say, oh my application not has any longer. And then how to find that your root codes or defect error as a developer or even as a team, you've got to find out and then you've got to go to some kind of nice dashboard and find out where is my root codes. And then sometimes you've got to find out, oh this is not just single error, it's more like a performance issue. So if you just a couple of end user, your application functionality totally working. However, you've got some big seasonality event, for example, we have a QCon and then we've got some promotion so we can give you a 30% discount for like a certificate for Kubernetes stuff. More than like 10 times end user just reach out to your website and then you spike your network traffic which occurs like a performance issue. So there are potential a lot of issues impact your application health needs. And then here is the observability how to detect your application status. So some people try to use these three pillar or term interchangeably like a metric and then logs and traces. So you can maybe say similarly with the metrics but there are actually some different definition for metrics, logs and traces. So metrics is just like a literally number of describing particular process and then actively measured from specific period of time. For example, Prometheus is so one of a popular tool to collect metrics data. It can be from the application layer and then platform layer like Kubernetes also operating system. It gather all metric data but that's not easy to figure out what that means exactly. So that's why you integrate like a graphical dashboards such as a graph on Prometheus. It make you more easily understand the metrics means and the logs you can just put in the all logs immutable logs from application or even your kernel or system level or file IO system. That's kind of all logs and the traces more like related to your Microsoft's application. I already mentioned earlier, you have a bunch of Microsoft's application on top of the Kubernetes and then each Microsoft actually communicate across that kind of stuff like a supply chain. So sometimes one of your Microsoft's application fail and then it could impact entire Microsoft's application.  That's why you got some socket breaking or full total on stuff. In order to find out which Microsoft services is a fail right now and what kind of the other Microsoft services impact from that failure Microsoft services. That's you're going to trace that application not just using a log proj or some kind of log library on your application.  So you got to have a nice like a vendor's APM tool like a Dynatrace or the CST and there are so many bunch of the trace tooling and which is like under the APM application performance management. And then there are four step like an instrument like using API or SDK or some protocol. And then with that your application actually collect the data and then processing like integrate like your dashboard like a graph on how to visualize that metric for SRE even developer.  And this is a pre-locking approach. So whenever you try to gather a metrics and then you're going to export that telemetry data in another platform from this Kubernetes and that Kubernetes or this virtual machine and another cloud provider. And then you cannot just import that data because that data already locked in some of the vendors format or some SDK. So we're going to things change that from open source way. And then with open source project and the tools you don't have a lock in but sometimes there are some different format. Okay, this is a JSON, this is a prototype, this is a binary. How to exchange that data between a collection or processing even visualization. So the problem question whenever I talk about this topic and a lot of people are asking me, hey Dan, so okay, that is really cool open source way which is we really prefer. And then where can we start? So the question just arise and then you might be interested in CNCF landscape and then under the Linux Foundation there are so many projects you can just filter like a monitoring, logging and tracing. And as you can see here, there are more than 20 like open source project like a Yeager and then open tracing, open telemetry and then like a Logostashy and then some of the vendors are actually productized that open source project on their product as like a cloud service like a SESI or on-prem stuff. So this is cool, but still you got some problem. Too many choices. If you just individual like a software engineer or just you wanna try your experiment, experimental thing, doesn't matter. You can just pick it up, one of them and then just try it on your local machine like your Mac OS laptop or Windows or like a Linux operating system. However, if you have some responsibility for selecting your technology stack for observation in Pro and then it's too many choices which tools framework would be perfect, optimized in my production environment. And then so today I'm gonna just a little bit narrow down to popular project, one is open tracing. This is a first standard tracing open source tool and then it just allows developer to keep tracing your Microsoft's application like a traffic and then telemetry data and then just explore like a backend sort of like a Yeager server or something like that. And then so in the next one of the popular project and invented by actually Google, this is not only just application side but also it's more like for course on collecting telemetry signals and data from IoT edge devices and then like hardware device and not just only software application. And this is a two open source projects so popular and I saw a lot of people actually adopt this project and tools and then stand up their own tracing and just really tracing and observability infrastructure. And then as you probably know, so one of the common practice there are multiple open source project in the same area, they'll have big competition and then in the end maybe one of them survive and the other one will be die. However, this is a super interesting part. Two projects actually combine to one super cool project open telemetry. So you don't need to abandon one of them. You already have an experience, have open tracing or open sensors, you can just adapt open telemetry because open telemetry combined of a two reducing project and provide a more better benefit. And then here's a quick example and then a quick explanation about what kind of component of open telemetry provides. So first of all, specification which he just tried to describe the multiple program language, not just only Java, but also like a PhD Python or even Golang. And then the developer actually implement and they kind of tracing stuff with the data API and SDK and using data protocol aka open telemetry protocol or ATP is now online transaction protocol, by the way. And then instrumentation, it also provide the library and for developer application developer as well as SRE to make actual the tracing the data of the telemetry signal and then export to whatever you want like a Yeager or a G-Pin and any backend server. And the most important at least as the power is the collector, you can actually correct data and the processing export to backend service just wherever you need. It's not related to any specific vendor product. It's 100% a vendor agnostic. So this is just super cool and the beauty of open telemetry stuff. So for example, so I'm gonna read a showcase Quarkus new Java framework just like a Spring Boot but it 100% focus on Kubernetes environment. At a time when we designed that as a redhead design that Java project three and a half years ago, we actually adapt open tracing as a tracing capability. And now we switch that open tracing functionality into open telemetry. Pretty easy to do that.  And then a lot of end-of-project company tried to evolve introducing Microsoft's application into serverless because after analyzing your existing workload on the production and you just find out, okay, so maybe only less than 20% my application workload should be running all the time like 24 seven not entire application. So how to reduce my public cloud utilization like Amazon, Google, Microsoft it's a pay-as-you-go strategy. If you run application all the time it just all your money. So that's why people really interesting serverless. And back in 2014 Amazon Lambda is the first the serverless frontier. And now there are many public cloud company as well as the Kubernetes K-NAB project provide the serverless capability. However, the serverless just like it will scale down to zero like just a hibernate if you have any natural trapping. So this is totally different thing. So when your application running all the time as a pod or even just like a single process on top of a machine you can keep monitor, observe that application your like open tracing, open telemetry, whatever you call. However, serverless application is to scale down to zero and then go up anytime, any soon. So how to keep monitoring that kind of thing but I don't want to add some specific or some like some Frankenstein and not good experience to add some kind of logic to my application or my system. So this is a one of a challenge to observe your serverless application up and down with the tracing tool, specifically open telemetry. So today I'm going to use three open source project focus for application side like a Java and then serverless side Kubernetes and K-Native. So K-Native just in case who never ever heard about before the K-Native one of the CNCF project it allows developer NSR team to manage your just imperative Microsoft's application as a serverless. So once you deploy application with K-Native specification like a YAML file and it will scale down to zero default time period of 30 second without any natural trapping just like Amazon Randa. And then the K-Native has own auto-scaler not HPA based on Kubernetes which automatically scale up when you have a natural trapping using RESTful API or the cloud events. And then I'm going to use open telemetry tracing the application. So just in case, so Quarkus just everybody saying supersonic subatomic because the Quarkus builds on Kubernetes which means so the Java was born 27 years ago at a time Java so dynamic behavior which means when you create the Java application and running on virtual machine you can have a dynamic behavior you can run any virtual machine any middleware from any vendors which is a call at a time but things change there. Long time moving forward to infrastructure in middle of infrastructure AKA Kubernetes which means you just need to scale out same application from one to a thousand and then Java is pretty slow and then heavy weight under the dead Linux container and Kubernetes. So we optimize that kind of thing and as much as possible at build time and when you run is super fast. For example, if you have a just single RESTful API it takes like a half a second to start up and the window native SQL file like just exe file like window operating system but this is a Linux format it just take to 10 millisecond to start up. So one of the big challenge when you use sublass it needed to use the core star strategy it takes maybe three second, two second which is pre-annoying to end user. However, if you just start like a 10 millisecond to start up it never ever be figured out by end user it already scaled down buffer. And there are so many bunch of stuff and this is a hard work as a way I'm gonna skip that. So the build time and then once you build application and then it automatically build two different type of the native SQL like I mentioned and then running on Java file like on double JVM just like a traditional way. So I'm gonna stop the slide deck and get right into the demo and how it works. Okay, so here's my terminal window and then I actually created just sample application with the Quarkus and then the Quarkus community project we release every two weeks to new version which is a super fast like open-source project. We actually released last night and two, two over two and then this is a simple application just like a hello world example like a let's pull URL and hello and then just return the hello from message reactive. And then this is a traditional way how do you store data? I mean log information like using log for J something like that and then print the log log print out your console for developer experience. And then this thing and I just need to add one more application things like that. So in order to showcase pretty interesting stuff I'm gonna run Quarkus application as a runtime. It actually provide a bunch of developer experience. This is not related to 100% the open telemetry but it's pretty good experience for the Quarkus is running and as you can see, so live coding activated. Here we go. So this is a pretty interesting for developer to develop application and I'm gonna open new terminal window and then try to access endpoint and then I got a one the hello from message reactive thing and also when I press W from the runtime and it just open up the landing page and then go to WI and then it showcase graphical what kind of dependency capability you actually have right now and then back to the my IDE and then here we go. There are press all is running the continual testing which is cool. So most developer actually needed to follow test driven development. However, it's pretty annoying to have test driven development capability. You need to add a third part library or like some kind of tool. However, this Java framework I actually provide that kind of feature out of box status. So as you can see one test scenario is just testing and back to the IDE, let's try to change that like hello, I'm gonna delete it here. Hello, open source submit and EU and then I just also needed to change changing my local message and then save a file and back to the terminal and you can see I just fail my test case. I just save a file. I just need, I don't need I don't even need it to be recompiled review restart redeploy it just showcase because when I go to my application here and then it actually expect this to result. And however, when I go to a new terminal and I just access my application, I got a new one. So functionality is still working. However, I fail test case. This is a huge important because when you want follow test driven development whatever you develop sub less or just general micro services, maybe sometimes, okay, my application just working on my local. However, you just commit that application to your like a GitHub and then that code will be deployed to production in next 30 minutes due to the your fantastic CI CD prime. And then sometimes it ruin entire system like a cascading error. So that's why we needed to use tracing but also we need to make sure your application totally working not just business application checking but also test case at all. And then I just need to update to here save file and back to the here you got to succeed here. So just I'm going to add a new something like that. Here we go. And then let's try to new method here. And then I'm going to add a new pass because it'll be great to trace two different RESTful API.  Let's try to change that. Like a welcome to Quarkus, K native and hotel project. And I'm going to like a username. Okay. So that's it. And then I need to report the username from my local file system. Like a username. That's it. And then I just did it. And then back to my terminal and then I got some error already. So because I didn't even define here the failed to loading compilation value username it's automatically show me that is a literally live coding capability. And now go to a proper file and the username on my proper name then I just save a file and then I got to succeed. And then back to the terminal. And I'm going to try to new RESTful API and then welcome to Quarkus, K native and hotel Daniel. This is it. And just one more thing back to here WI and he's a compilation editor. So a lot of people are actually prepared to use GUI rather than CNI or some bio system. So you can see my name here.  And back to the terminal. And then I'm going to test it. I got a new return. However, when you go to my ID the local file system also changed automatically. So maybe this is just something good for that kind of thing. And then go back to here and I just missed the log steel the previous one. So let's try to change that here too. Just copy and then paste here. Okay. And then back to the here, my terminal. And then when I go to the gritty and I got the output here welcome to the same tracing. So maybe this is just maybe traditional way how to store your log information. And then when you deploy this application to Kubernetes, you can go to path and then you can find the logs with that kind of thing to trace the logs for the troubleshooting. So now I'm going to need to just run with the open telemetry stop. So to do that, I need to add like open telemetry thing. I'm going to add export open telemetry extension. This is the allows my application to use open telemetry tool. And also I need to another extension capability to deploy this application in the end to Kubernetes. Okay, I just added two. And then here's my needed to run open telemetry and the backhand server Yeager. I have a one Docker composite file. So here we go. So I'm going to run Yeager with this export port. And then here's the open telemetry collector from Yeager. And then here's my compilation file. As you can see, I'm going to use the OTLP protocol with the GRPC and the version two as well. And I'm going to export this open telemetry signal into backhand server Yeager and using the Yeager default port. And this is some simple compulation how to collect data from application using open telemetry collector and then export the data into backhand server Yeager. So I'm going to use the Docker composite to run to container one is open telemetry, the other one is Yeager. So using Docker compose and just up. And then it just start up pretty quick and then try to make sure the running to process here open telemetry collector and the Yeager. And then go back to browser and then try to open the Yeager dashboard here. So you can see there's the just default Yeager query. And then I'm going to run my application once again. And then it automatically connect to existing open telemetry collector because I already said that they kind of stuff. Even if I didn't add any compulation on my application properly, properly file here, but it automatically set it up on Java framework because when you go to the UI, localhost 8080, thank you. And there and here's the compulation and you can actually find open telemetry all kind of resources and automatically set it up like enable through and then the kind of all kind of stuff. Okay, back to the here. And then let's try to here we go and access to like 8080, like a hello. But for that, when you go to there you know actual application tracing data. And then when I run and then back to the here I got the low just traditional way. However, when I reload the Yeager UI and I have a new service here automatically detect just like a project name.  Okay, I got a one Yeager tracing data here. And also back to normal and then if you I call once again and it also automatically two kind of stuff. This right there. And then if I access to another API here and then you can see the new API when you reload the Yeager UI and a new operation find out here and then you can find a new tracing data. So in the meantime, the application the Java application automatically just generate like a local file and that local information actually print out your terminal just like a traditional way. However, open telemetry collector keep collecting that telemetry data from your application automatically and send it to backend Yeager server. This is just some kind of your depth environment for application developer standpoint how to use this kind of thing. But this is actual like a server less application it's not Kubernetes environment. So I'm gonna stop and I'm gonna deploy this application to Kubernetes right now. So this is my Kubernetes. This is the Retail Developer Sandbox which is for free any user you can once signed up and then we provide free Kubernetes cluster on the cloud for 30 days.  Here's the Yeager operator and this is a open telemetry operator. And the last thing is open the server less between K native. So I already installed operator K native and the open telemetry and Yeager. And first thing is I'm gonna go back to my application. I'm gonna add a few configuration to deploy this application deploy Kubernetes to true. And I also deploy target which is K native. You could be Kubernetes and open ship to K native and then container image group which is my actual namespace here hotel K native Java. So I'm gonna do that hotel K native. Java and then one more thing container image and registry which is the open ship to cluster actually includes integrate container registry like a Docker hub or a Google container registry. It already have own container registry so you don't need to use external container registry but if you want you can do that. So I'm gonna use the integrate of the image registry G and registry and that service name and $5,000 port. And then I'm gonna open this part access to just application URL. And then one thing I need to add the open ship to cluster by default using server service K for TLS termination. So that's why I set it up this kind of stuff. Okay, I just done. So I'm gonna deploy this application right now to Kubernetes but for that I need to set up to create the Yeager. So create the Yeager in a new instance Yeager part on my project and then just create it and then go to like a graphical UI console and then it show me topology view here. And then I also needed to add Yeager things. Here's the, I mean the open telemetry collector. In this case I'm gonna use the Yeager, the backend service name and then here we go. So one thing deeper on my local is the Kubernetes environment I'm gonna use. Here is the solid PK because it's more like secure your application. So just copy and back to here in the meantime let's try to create the open telemetry collector here. And then I just paste that and create a new one. And now I have two part. One is Yeager is the open telemetry. And when you click on Yeager and you can find here, here is the chicken server and chicken server back the Yeager and then here's the all kind of services are exposed for your open telemetry collector. So one more thing last thing is go to KNAV serving project and then I'm gonna need to new KNAV serving which allows me deploy application as KNAV serve services. And then back to my IDE and here is my KNAV serving. And I'm gonna use a deep key endpoint which is actually part of the service in Yeager server.  So back to my terminal I'm gonna run my deploy my application. In the meantime, it will do some of the steps. For example, packaging application like a Java application like a Java file and then create the container image using Docker file. And then once the container image built and then it will be deploy push it to integrate container registry. And then last thing, the Kubernetes worker node will run the container image as a server less. So back to the UI and then it's almost done. So I'm gonna load that top load view. So we have the all the application like a scalar and then like a domain mapping weapon. It's all HPA just deploy and then back to our working project here. So now we're gonna need to go to like a Yeager new dashboard, not my local. It provide the single sign on. So my username Daniel. Oh, here's my Yeager UI actually running on Kubernetes. And then as you can see as my local there's one the Yeager code default services here. And then once our application almost deployed back to the here, okay, we built so say deploy. So here's a new my Quarkus application. And then when you deploy Quarkus application and then here is my URL and then it will deploy in a second. Maybe I'm gonna reload that top load view. So why buy in and it's a little bit freaky here. So as you can see the part is view log and then this is a part and then back to the here and then try to access the URL like a hello endpoint. I got the same result and back to the here I got the result just like a tracing like a tracing away. However, back to the Yeager UI and then reload. And now I got a new like a open telemetry like a just sublash that deployment. And then I got a new operation like a hello and the fine tracing we have a one tracing. And then this application automatically scale down to zero in the next 30 seconds. So let's give it a give some moment and then it automatically scale down to zero. And then when you just invoke one of the less for API it automatically goes up just like Amazon Lambda just like a sublash behavior. And then after that open the telemetry, telemetry collector, get that signal from the application and then just send that signal telemetry data into Yeager server with the new service name. So it will go down to zero pretty soon. So after that it will terminate it automatically and then I'm gonna terminate it and then I'm gonna try to call one more time with a new API for example, good thing. And then it will go down. And so in the meantime we are most running out of time. I got one last slide deck here, so maybe bigger. So I already created a demo video on my YouTube channel the opinion you are at Daniel TV you can scan QR code.  You are more than happy subscribe and then some give me some inspiration. I need to run something new about like a Kubernetes or like a cloud application development or even GitOps like a practice. And then it will be very helpful for me to create a new content like a technical demo and then like a just inside thing. Okay, let's go back to that and then application go down. There's a no pod, it's a moment zero. And then when I go to run this new app and it automatically start container is starting and the new logs here and then go to pod and you can find the log file here and then go back to Yego UI and then you can see new services just edited here. And then new operation, this is the old one, this is a new one and then go to hello greeting you can edit it and find out here. If you go to X one time and then it will trace into that one. So just summarize. So I don't even add some kind of specific thing to enable open telemetry collector on my application side. It automatically just collect the telemetry data and then push it into backhand server, which is Yego. So whatever you deploy application as the general pod was summarized on top of the Kubernetes this is a pretty easiest way keep observe your application for troubleshooting or the trace your data in your production in bottom. And then thanks for coming and I will be seeing around if you have any question and just feel free to reach out to me directly. I'm more than happy to address the question. Thanks a lot.


Ladies and gentlemen welcome back to another fixture form. I am silent Mike your hostest with the mostest This is where I take your forms I try to help you guys improve your lifts if you want to get involved We need three reps 70% high definition of filming a filmed horizontal scent to ask am I kke at Gmail.com and we will get you involved or start out with conventional deadless ladies and gentlemen grab your non-alcoholic beverages Sit back relax. Enjoy the ride. Take out a notepad and let's get learned my man Step number one for all deadlifts What we need to do is focus on keeping that barbell as close to our body as we can often you see people wear long socks Maybe even a knee sleeve on the shin.  It's gonna take pressure off your back It's gonna make the bar path more efficient and it's also going to allow you to lift more weight And you know what? No more weight means more gains So my friend move that stance in just a little bit right before you're getting started to pull I want you to pull your lats in and basically what you're going to try to do is pull that barbell as hard as you can Into your legs. There's a little bit of gap there and that again is just putting more load into your low back So what we're gonna do is pull that thing into our shins We're gonna drop our chin just a little bit your wrenching on your neck again neutral spine might be a little bit Overrated we don't have to have a perfectly neutral spine But we don't want our neck wrenched and our chin way up so that it affects the position of our back or our hips So tuck that chin a little bit. I'd say move that stance in a hair Really pull that barbell up into your legs and then watch those toesies bro because I've dropped a 25 pound plate from iHeight free fallen Like Tom Petty free Falling yeah, I'm free falling Straight on to my second toe and now my second toe is a similar shape to my thumb So look you can do what you want to do bro But I suggest wearing some sneakers while you're getting your gains and you guys are welcome You can give this a thumbs up for the Tom Petty rendition that I just put out there I mean look it's not a 10 out of 10, but it's definitely an 8.5 out of 10 and you're welcome More conventional pulls right here. Let's see what we got Overall looks really really good man looks like you might have a little bit of a soft shoe going I can't really tell but for all lifters. We want the flattest Stiffest shoe we can find that's going to allow us to transfer our power We're not going to be wiggling around, you know basketball shoes running shoes Everything of that nature is made to absorb some of the shock of running one lifting We don't want any stability issues.  You can see where the barbell is and where your shoulders That's put an extra pressure into that mid and low back and not taking Accounting to our hammies and glutes.  You can see right there. You're not fully locked out So we always at the top we want to think about standing as tall as we can I think about someone pulling my head from a cord a cord from the top of my head if that makes some sense I'm gonna flex my quads and flex my glutes and chances are you'll lock out perfectly every single time a hundred percent of the time one percent of the time My man here more conventional poles looks like he's kind of doing a block pole He's got like a little inch there which can affect how you pull Overall looks pretty solid man. I can only see half of you. It's a beautiful half But I can only see half so try to try to get some good videos in here if you can squad The better the video from you the better the coaching from me But overall I'd say really good. It looks a little heavier than 70% those hips raise a hair Which isn't a big deal. Basically what we want to do is make things most efficient as we can right when you pull on it On a conventional deadlift your hips if they're too low They will raise until the most optimal leverage so that the bar will move they'll move on their own So what we're going to try to do is lifters to be the most efficient optimal lifters We can we want to find that position that our hips need to be in and that's going to depend on how You're built how long your torso is how long your thigh or femurs are and that's how long your arms are So for my man right here might as well just start with your hips a bit higher And the reason we do that is that we can find the tension better and be more efficient So yes, you know the the two inches our hips raise before the bar raise isn't Wasting that much energy or time or anything, but that means that there's probably not enough tension So if we find the perfect height the perfect position to start in both conventional and sumo Then that allows us to then focus on the other things like getting as tight as we can and hopefully after repetition after repetition We start thinking about the deadlift the squat the bench overhead press whatever you're doing like a free throw or Tiger Woods at the golf range Just hitting everything perfectly then when it becomes, you know, 85 90 95 100% of our max all we can do is focus on Pushing or pulling as hard as we can once we have our technique down and we have so many hours in the gym Focusing on that technique over and over and over then when it comes game time All we do is let our body do the work and our mind is just focusing on pushing and pulling as hard as we can We're moving into our first sumo pulls of the day and overall my man looks really really good. I'd like to see a front angle I don't know if we have that so knees are a hair forward Often what what happens with the sumo is everyone thinks about having the widest stance they can to cut down range of motion all this and range of motion is An issue it can help right if we if we have a shorter range of motion But if you start thinking about the squat, there's a lot of huge squatters with a moderate stance, right? So it's not always just the stance that's gonna and range of motion that's gonna allow us to lift more weight It's it's better to be optimal And so your knees being a little bit forward in your body being a little bit over the bar What I'd suggest is moving that stance in and what that allows most people to do is push out your knees a little bit further What we want is our shin pretty vertical and we want our knees directly over our midfoot at the bottom of the sumo At the starting position of the sumo and just telling by how you're built right here That's gonna allow you to be not a little even more upright And get that little wiggle off of the ground You're trying to find tension because you're a little off balance right there But if you move that stance in about an inch each side Maybe even to force those knees out and then I would also move that head up onto the horizon That's gonna allow you to stay a little bit more balanced and I think get the most optimal position I and I don't know how you're doing the concentration right there I'd be pissed if homeboys walking right in front of me while I'm trying to pull Jim etiquette ladies and gentlemen every sport has a little bit of the etiquette, you know in golf It's standing behind the the the the the person who's hitting it's being quiet. It's not talking, right? It's being nice to the grass. You got to fix your divots things like that and bowling It's similar thing if you're in a lane right next to somebody you don't bowl at the same time somebody doing it You wait off of the wood right and in lifting you don't walk Directly in front of someone mid squat or even mid-deadlift from this angle looks a little bit better But I still think because your femurs are kind of small your little thighs not small sorry bro Your quads are jacked don't let anyone tell you any different jacked quads But they're a little bit shorter even like myself and that's why everyone talks about Semi-sumo or whatever you want to call it, but it's actually just a sumo deadlift With a position that's that's made the way you're built So let's move that stance in take advantage of those smaller femurs. Sorry jacked quads and short femurs and Really keep forcing those knees out ma'am overall though Super super clean sumo if I do say so myself you're 90% there with a couple tweaks You're really gonna smash them big weights. I can tell the future. I can see it happening They don't know it's true. I was gonna go into a Disney song, but I forgot the rest of the lyrics I'm sorry. I do love Disney, but it's been a while. You know what I mean? Moving on ladies and gentlemen if you guys do enjoy this video Be sure to turn on subscriptions turn on notifications because we're dropping videos of logs lifting coaching Tuesday Wednesday Thursday Saturday Sunday check the description below I'm on twitch almost every single night if you guys want to come kick it Yes, it is a video game platform But I'm mostly there to hang out with you guys have a good time try to entertain y'all and chat with you guys So conventional poles this gym looks sick. I don't know where you're at little bro, but this place looks sick Pretty good pretty good. So similar to our second guy.  We want a little bit of that weight So say you're pulling 275 right here. I don't know what you're pulling But we want 50 of those pounds in your hand before you begin to pull We want to think about not chopping you guys ever try to cut Frozen or too cold butter. We don't want to chop at that thing We want a nice smooth cut with a butter knife into warm butter That's how we want all our deadlifts to be right.  Hopefully you guys enjoyed it. I appreciate you all so so much Going on a couple trips coming up ahead into Boston heading to LA head into Texas a bunch of footage coming a bunch of logs Coming thanks again y'all catch you in the next video. Sala Mike. I'm out of here


Kupito mogu tinyiru ui kwa tia tehini katisha kwa kwa ujama kawapia halmi. IwaУu uru na nikini. Ta hini niki na hk. Na hk'uwo hibani wajita. In pambu, hivani niki meki niki pa hintu. Vani habu mtutimu vatu ni na hk'u. Vatu maqani kwa mtutimu kwa hintu. Umi ja ni omi. kwa segikununu na kasa kwa hiki na nihini niya niya na niya na kwa hiki wei kwa hiki kwa hiki kwa hiki kwa tла na kwa hiki hiki maka eni niya na tda kwa hiki Honaribo Steveni Kampiungu. Let me just remind you. You are aware that in 2016 President Ed Galungu appointed a commission of inquiry on electoral violence and vote pattern. The report was released and there were names that were mentioned. I'm addressing Honaribo Kampiungu. Names were mentioned to death. We have never seen any action. Some of the people that were mentioned in that report are still serving and continuing to exhibit their violence behavior. Honaribo Kampiungu, you need to suffer up as a minister of home affairs.   Honaribo Kampiungu, you are disappointing that the minister can lie about the attack that happened in Kavata. That is not supposed to come out because of the ministry that you are managing. Honaribo Kampiungu, you are so busy and very agitated. This issue of trying to link HH and issue that has to do with the private property. Yet, Honaribo Kampiungu, you have been quiet three months before elections. To judge, we have not seen a report that can inform the Zambian people who was behind the ritual killings. To judge, Honaribo Kampiungu, you are only remaining with three months in office. We have not seen a report on who was behind the burning of the markets. Honaribo Kampiungu, to judge again, we have not seen a report on who was involved in gassing. Those are the issues that are supposed to agitate you. Why? Because they affect the general populace. They do affect the citizens of Zambia. But you are quiet. How many things have your kandas done, Honaribo Kampiungu? And you have been quiet. You have not been agitated. Let me remind you. When Mausapu was running his political party in Nola, right at the apron there, we had a fleet of kandas, right on the apron acting in a chair. What did you say? Nothing. What happened in Secheke? We saw the pf kandas armed with those weapons. What happened, Honaribo Kampiungu? Did you come out? No. We saw the retiring of Wakunguma National Interest. Policemen are now being beaten. They were beaten at the police station there. Policemen were beaten. Did you say anything? Nothing. Kandas are able to enter in a media house, in a studio to try to attack. Just because they hear the voice of HH, when they hear the voice, almost attacking a poor journalist. What did you say, Honaribo Kampiungu? Nothing. Even in Kambili, the one who is working with you now was also attacked at the studio. What has been said? Nothing. Now it's like Honaribo Kampiungu, these things which affect the general populace do not affect you at all. Now let me ask you a question. Why are you so much agitated about this issue? Why are you even warning that if present HH is involved in this issue or in this issue of the Kalomopam? Then the time will catch up with you. Why? Why are you telling me? Now that is the one that is giving us a hint that you are trying to get at HH. Now let me tell you. We have experience. I know Honaribo Kampiungu Inspector General Kampiungu said that it is not true that you want to arrest HH. Honaribo Kampiungu, we have got no trust. Anything can happen under this government. Anybody can be arrested under this government whether they have committed an offence or not. The example, the good example I can give you is you kept our presence in the Hichilema for 127 days in prison. You humiliated him. You were moving him from the prison there near the court Chimba Gaila. You took him to Tulilai. From there again you moved him. He is in Kawi. No he has been brought. 127 days we saw you machoed policemen who were always on duty when we were at the court case. And now it says we are paid. What happened to that case? Let me also remind you. An officer whom I will not mention in the name pleaded with the court that I lied I lied on oath. I did not investigate the matter. But he was arrested. So inspector general Kanganja you should understand why we cannot trust you. And we know that HH can be anything can happen in HH now. But I think what I have to say is that Honaribo Kampiungu you were a wrong person actually to deal with this issue. Deal with the issues. You are only remaining with three months. Let's say those reports come out. And by the way you are supposed to draw a line between your ministry and police. Allow them to be professional. Allow them to act independently. Please stop issuing statements that are supposed to be issued by the police. We do not want police to be politicized. We are aware that the police are working under so much pressure. We saw what happened in Kawata there. Honaribo Kampiungu. What were you telling the people in Hochefem that you know UPND cadres were fighting on that was a lie. You were told that it is not supposed to be like that. A minister of home affairs is supposed to be very sober because of how sensitive the ministry is. By the way when you are minister of home affairs you are not minister of pay off home affairs.  We want peace. We need security. Those are the things we want you to look at.  Leave HH alone. HH has an agenda. He has an agenda to rebuild and reunite this country. And he is doing that. And it is not HH who is saying I am going to be president. No, it is the people of Zambia that have chosen HH as their best choice. Because he has shown his commitment. He has shown his loyalty. He has sacrificed for this country. He has shown people that he means well. He has shown people that he does not want to become president because he wants to save himself. No, it is because he wants to save the people of Zambia. That is why he says my vision is to make life better. He wants to make it easy for people of Zambia to put food on the table in Mokujia Do you know that people are not eating? Including some of your members and some of the youths. They are not eating. But they are not eating. Look at your ministry again. Recently we are discussing about we are discussing on gun culture. To death have we been told on why there is an increase of guns around the mango youths? Nothing. Look at the behavior of your youths. What is giving your youths energy and authority to go in? What is it? And then you want to say no. The PS must be fired. I hope. Who is responsible? It is you as a minister of women affairs. It is you as chairperson of security. So can we check responsibility? We love you as minister of women affairs. But can you do what is right? Not only for PF but for the whole country. That is what we expect from you. But the hands of HH the youths have told you. Hands of HH the 127 should have told you last one. But this time no, no, no, no. There will be no youths there will be no women. We stand to protect our president. We do not use guns. We shall not fight but we shall make sure that we protect him. Because the people of Zambia come 2021. Nikuwae. Kwae baby. We are not every time at the church of Maraisha you send the children to market. But the child comes with no change. You want to say no. But things are expensive. No, no, no, no, no. Makangiwa there is nothing that you can do. I know the elections if I can do. But in the end people know who you are. So hands of HH


You can copy that, and um... Alright, once again, it's me, Mr. Ruchoff. Alright, in our last two lessons, we were talking about the economic systems and the government systems of the countries around the world. And just as Adam Smith said about individuals, countries also will do what they believe is best in their own interests. And this usually puts them into conflict between one country and another. So this means that countries will find themselves needing to influence other countries, which includes attempting to control territory, to be able to influence internal political relationships, if not actually having war. In other words, countries often, if not continuously, are using power to get other countries to do what they want them to do. And what some of you may not know is that for over 23 years, I served the United States Army and even have a master's degree in military studies, which means I have studied how do countries use power. So in this lesson, I'm going to introduce you to some of the same principles that strategic leaders and capitals around the world use to be able to practice power. So first, we must answer, what is power? Well, the word power comes from the Latin word, which means to be able. It's being able to do something. So the actual definition of power is having the ability to direct or influence the behavior of others or the course of events. So we can see the same definition applied to nations and national power, which is the nation's ability to influence behavior or exercise control over other countries or non-state actors. And when we talk about non-state actors, we're talking about groups such as ISIS and Al Qaeda. Now, as each country is attempting to achieve national power, if one country becomes too powerful, it can lead to that country attempting to conquer the others. There's been examples of this in history, such as Napoleon's France and Hitler's Germany. So there is another very important term when we talk about national power, that is the concept of balance of power. Balance of power is the distribution and opposition of forces among nations such that no single nation becomes so strong that it can dominate the others. The Cold War that existed between the United States and the Soviet Union between 1945 and 1991 was actually an exercise of power. Both sides were pretty much equally powerful, so neither was able to get an advantage. Now oddly, peace is achieved this way, although this peace may not always be entirely peaceful. However, major wars are usually avoided when no side feels it will be successful in totally toppling the other. Alright, so we know what power and national power is and we now understand the importance of the concept of balance of power. But what makes a nation powerful? And here we're going to find out that national power is much more than just armies and navies. When strategic planners from Washington DC or any other nation's capital think about national power, they talk about it in terms of the sources of national power and the instruments of national power. The sources of national power is what contributes to a nation having power. The instruments of national power is how nations use this power. Now first, let's look at the sources of national power. The sources of national power are physical geography, their its economy, its population, national will, and national direction. Now physical geography of a country can provide advantages which can increase that country's power. One example is a country on the island which makes it harder to invade. This is the reason why Germany's Hitler was never able to invade Great Britain, World War II, despite the fact that he really wanted to. And the fact that the United States is separated from the rest of the world by the Pacific and Atlantic Ocean has largely meant for the last 200 years the United States hasn't had to worry about someone trying to invade them. Likewise, mountains also provide protection. Mountainous countries such as Bhutan, Nepal, and Switzerland have seldom been invaded due to their positions in the mountain. But geography doesn't just allow a country to defend itself, it also allows it for it to develop more power. A country's natural ports, its waterways, its rail network all allows it to be able to receive goods and services that it might not be able to produce on its own. This also leads into a second source of national power, its economy. And this can be pretty easy to understand, the richer a country is, the more resources it has to be able to exert power. Now having more resources means that you have more things to trade and you have more trading partners. Now its strong economy allows for a country to exert power through being able to decide who it will and who it will not do trade with. Now if a country has more resources, this also means that it can support a larger military and it can support those military operations over a longer period of time. Furthermore, a strong economy also creates a better standard of living for its people. Now this is important because it is the population that is the third source of national power. A country's power is increased if it has an industrious creative population and a well-trained population. It increases the likelihood that it's going to develop more innovations and inventions that will further give a country an advantage over its peers. Now if the country has a positive population growth, meaning it's growing its population, it may have a manpower advantage over less populous neighboring countries such as the case of France in the time of Napoleon. The rich North European plane gave France a large agricultural producing region. This meant that France had more food and because it had more food it could support a larger army that Napoleon was able to use in order to try to take over all of Europe. Now the people of a country also important for another source of national power that is national will. National will speaks to the support that a population gives to its government and to the government's objectives. For example, for a country to be able to sustain military operations against another country, the government needs the support or at least the lack of opposition of its people. However, if the government lacks the support or its national will then it may find it unable to support this use of power. This was exactly what happened with the United States in the Vietnam War. Now during the Vietnam War the United States enjoyed a much larger economy, had a much more powerful military and was supported by the best technology of the age. This led to the fact that during the Vietnam War the United States military never lost a major battle but it didn't matter. See, as anti-war protests grew at home the US lost the national will to continue the war in Vietnam. This led to the American President having to withdraw our forces from Vietnam and give victory to the North Vietnamese. The United States lost the will of the people therefore it lost its war in Vietnam. Now the will of the people can be influenced by our last source of national power which is national direction. National direction refers to the government's ability to provide a clear vision for our future policy goals, commitments, as well as being able to get the people to support its aims. World War II has many great examples of this. America's Franklin Delano Roosevelt and his government clearly articulated the reason why we had to continue to fight against Germany and Japan. As a result they were able to hardest the efforts of the entire country to be able to continue the fight to the end. Likewise Adolf Hitler used his charisma to be able to galvanize the people of Germany behind his ruinous objectives of conquering all of Europe. Now whether for good or for evil a leader that can impart national direction becomes a great strength for that nation. Now how a nation uses this power is through what is known as the instruments of national power. The instruments of national power represent the resources that can be manipulated and employed as part of a state's strategy for national security. Now we can remember the instruments of national power by thinking of the dime which is diplomacy, information, military, and economics. Together these instruments represents the power the state may bring to bear against its regional and international neighbors. Now national power is a combination of all these elements and the state can use them in varying combinations according to the situation. Now the first of the instruments of national power is diplomacy or the political process. Diplomacy is the use of negotiations and speaking between countries in order to persuade another country to do a country's will. Diplomacy is often considered what we call a soft power because instead of using force to the military diplomacy seeks to find a way to resolve conflicts by talking it out with each other. Diplomacy itself is the art and practice of conducting these negotiations between representatives of different states or countries. The individuals that do this on behalf of their country are known as diplomats. Though diplomacy often results in a formal agreement between countries to either create peace, form an alliance, increase commerce between the countries or some other international objective. This formal agreement is called a treaty. Now perhaps the most important organization to conduct diplomacy is the United Nations. It was created right after World War II in an effort to prevent the world from going to war again in the same manner. Essentially the UN is where the world comes to talk it out. Hoping that their negotiations and discussions at the UN will facilitate cooperation between different nations and being able to solve international problems without resorting to war. Now currently there are 193 countries who are members of the UN. In fact there are only two countries in the world who are not in the UN. That is the Holy See or Vatican City and Palestine. Yes I know, I know that many people do not consider Palestine a country while others dimly declare that it has to be and this pretty much speaks to the reason why Palestine is not in the United Nations yet. Now the real power of the United Nations is in the United Nations Security Council. The Security Council has the primary responsibility for the maintenance of international peace and security and the nations of the world take turns serving on this council which has 10 members. However five countries are considered permit members and have vetoes over anything the UN Security Council and thus the United Nations itself wants to do. Now three of these are European countries which are Russia, United Kingdom and France. The United States and China are the other two permit members. Now by always having a seat on the Security Council and having that veto that means that these five countries have an enormous amount of diplomatic power. Now the second instrument of the dime is information. The information instrument to national power uses both official and non-official communication in a way to not only influence the governments but the people of these governments. An example of how the government can use information to influence the people of a country is the United States Voice of America. Through Voice of America the United States attempts to broadcast news stories into countries that may not actually have a free press. This not only attempts to weaken the power of totalitarian governments but it also gives the people of these countries a positive impression of the United States. Therefore the United States is using the information as a instrument of national power. Now the third instrument of national power is the use of the military and while conducting full-scale war and strategic strikes to be able to destroy targets in another country is certainly part of the military instrument national power. This instrument includes many other ways of using the military. For example the United States Navy and other navies of the world conducts what is called freedom of navigation operations to ensure that no country is cutting off the trade routes in international waters. But perhaps the most widespread use of the military instrument national power is through military alliances. Military alliances are when countries come together to assist each other's militaries and agree to come to each other's aid in case of undercountry is attacked. Now one of the most important of these military alliances is NATO or the North Atlantic Treaty Organization. Now this collection of 27 European countries plus the United States trains together shares resources but more importantly operates under the idea that an attack on one is considered an attack on all. NATO's alliance has meant to serve as a deterrent to other countries and originally this was the Soviet Union and also to be able to maintain peace within Europe. Now the last instrument is the use of a country's economic power. In this case nations use economic leverage to be able to get what it needs in the world affairs. For example in 2017 the United Nations passed a set of sanctions on North Korea that sought to prevent North Korea from getting the resources it needed in order to continue building its nuclear missile program. But in addition to blocking resources from going to another country economic power can also be used by providing economic aid to a country. Now this ability to either block trade or to help with trade gives a country the ability to influence other countries. Now in addition to sanctions countries enter into treaties and form organizations to combine the economic power of these countries to increase the influence that they might have. One of these organizations is the European Union or the EU which is an economic and political union. Now the predecessor of the EU was created right after World War II and it had the idea that if these European countries were more economically connected they would be less likely to go to war. Now today one of the advantages the EU has is it serves as a balance of power an economic balance of power to America's might. Now while each individual European country would find it difficult to compete head-to-head with the vast economy of the United States together the EU has roughly the same size economy as the United States and thus it has an economic balance of power. Now the EU today has 27 countries. It used to have 28 but in 2020 Great Britain left the EU in what was known as Brexit. Now another economic alliance meant to harness economic power is OPEC. The members of OPEC are some of the world's largest oil producers. In fact 75 percent of all the world's oil reserves and 50 percent of the world's oil production actually comes through these OPEC countries. This means that OPEC has lots of economic power by working together and how they use this power is by deciding how much oil to either produce or how much oil not to produce. They know that if they reduce the amount of oil they pump they can make the oil prices around the world rise and they know that if they can increase the amount of oil they can make the oil prices low. This gives OPEC a great deal of power on the rest of the world. All right so we have looked at the factors that actually create national power and how countries can be able to exert that through what we call the instruments of national power. You should now be able to look at any situation in the world and start to see how nations are using these instruments of national power or the dime to be able to exert their national power over the countries. All right keep on learning.


Good morning everybody, Estas here. Welcome back to another video. So in this morning's video, we're going to be talking very quickly about four or five stock slash ETFs that I'm personally looking to trade today on the 1st of March, kicking off this new month on a solid note. So let's get right into it, guys. For those of you all that watched my video yesterday, the afternoon video, you saw that I talked about many of these stocks and ETFs that we're going to be talking about. In this morning's video, and Square was one of those stocks. So for those of you all that were paying attention to the markets yesterday, Square reported earnings. The stock fell down to about $74 per share. All the way down, I believe it might have been like $73 per share after market hours on what day was this. It was on Wednesday, I believe, their reported earnings. After market hours, the stock tanked, and we saw it fill the gap all the way back up from $74 all the way back to about $83. And what we talked about in yesterday's video, and what I want to see today before trading Square stock, is I want to see it hold this old resistance as a new support at around $81. And the fact that we do see a nice pullback right here pre-market hours from about $82.85, which was actually, we hit this point at about 5 a.m. a couple of hours ago, $82.85 and we're pulling back to this old resistance and holding it as a new support. This is actually a really good sign heading into the market open here in about 20 minutes from the time that I'm recording this video. So pretty much guys, this is the support that we're looking to hold above at about $81 due to it being an old resistance from back in October and November of 2018. So the whole idea here, if we do end up holding this new support and we slowly start to fill the gap here heading into the market open, this could be a very good day trade from about $81 up to about $83, which is the next resistance that we're looking to push to in terms of Square stock. So I'm watching this one very closely guys. Ideally, I would like to enter this at about $81.81.25. Once we do confirm the push here and the slow confirmation push up to the gap fill at about $83. So Square, that's the first one I'm watching today on the 1st of March in 2019. And another one I'm watching guys is Jnug. We saw a huge, huge sell-off today and yesterday in the Gold Futures here, slash GC and we all know that Jnug is an ETF that goes up in price whenever Gold Futures are going up in price, right? And the fact that we sold off very heavily, that means Jnug has a very big, very, very big margin of profit open for it from about $10.50 where we are right now. Guys, up the previous resistances at about, let's say the first one here is at about $11.80. That offers about 12% and the next one is at about $13.60. That offers about 23.5% margin of profit. So what am I watching for Jnug this morning guys? I'm watching and looking to see on this 184-hour chart here, are we going to be able to hold above this 180SMA, which has been a support in the past once here back in the middle to the end of January in 2019 where we bounced at $8.38. And are we going to hold this old resistance at about $10.38, $10.40, $10.50 as a new support level where we did actually end up bouncing a couple of weeks ago back in the middle of February in 2019. So this area right here, very solid support for Jnug and I do think if Gold Futures end up starting to push back this morning heading into the afternoon this could be a very good play up to the next resistance at about $11.50 which again offers about a 10-11, 12% margin of profit here for Jnug, which is the bull ETF that correlates with Gold. So another one that I'm trading today guys that I'm looking to add more money into is Coca-Cola ticker symbol K-O. And for those of you guys that don't know, I'm in this one roughly at about $45 per share I got in on Wednesday. And the reason why I got into Coca-Cola guys is A, they have a dividend coming up on the 14th of March. We ended up holding above this support where we bounced back in October and in August of 2018. And the fact that I personally got in here with about 10%, 15% of my position is really a comfortable spot for me guys because you know for all of you that watch the videos you know when I'm swing trading a stock and K-O is a swing trading position here I like to scan into my positions with about 10%, 15%, 20% of the Gold position. So this way, if the stock doesn't go my way initially, right? I'll be able to lose a smaller dollar value when it does trigger my stop loss at about 1.52% depending on the particular stock as opposed to if I hopped in all the way with 100% of my Gold position I would lose more dollar value if it did end up going down and triggering my stop loss you know in any situation, right? So the whole idea here guys why I want to add more money to Coca-Cola is because it does seem like right now pre-market hours it is fighting to break out of this 50 SMA resistance. And for those of you guys that watched my video yesterday I talked about how I want to add more into Coca-Cola once we do break out of this 50 SMA resistance and this $46 resistance from back towards the middle half of February in 2019 So as of right now guys, I'm up a decent amount on Coca-Cola not much let's see from $45 roughly up to where I am right now up about 1% on my position right now and again this is a swing position that I do plan on holding here for 2-3 weeks to capture this dividend right here of about 40 cents per share So Coca-Cola guys, Square, Jnog those are three of the main ones that I'm watching today and another one that I'm watching is Crude Oil guys Crude Oil, there's an ETF combo that trades based upon Crude Oil that we always like to talk about on this channel and that we trade a lot, meet personally and a lot of people in the community and those two are UWT and DWT and take a look at this Crude Oil pattern right here guys it seems like we are showing a double top formation in terms of Crude Oil which isn't necessarily a bullish sign this is kind of a bearish sign especially if we do end up breaking this 50 SMA here and we start to break through these support levels this could be a good sign to hop into DWT which is the bear ETF that trades based upon Crude Oil obviously whenever Crude Oil is going down DWT is going up in price but if we take a look back here to Crude Oil let's say today we successfully hold above this 50 SMA as a support and continue to push in this uptrend pattern formation that we've been in illustrated by this trend line you know this could be a good time to hop into UWT which is the bull ETF and especially if we end up breaking out of this 57-50 resistance guys because this is a huge spot right here that's really holding us back from Crude Oil continuing the uptrend and if Crude Oil ends up bursting through this resistance that's going to be the continuation of the uptrend and UWT is going to continue to be a beast of an ETF to trade in and out of as long as this is continuing the uptrend but again if we get rejected which it is looking like we are but if we get another further confirming factor in this case being breaking this trend breaking the 50 SMA and then breaking the supports that could be a DWT opportunity which again is the bear ETF so in terms of ETFs guys I'm watching today are UWT, DWT and Jnug as well as Coca-Cola and Square and another one that I'm interested in potentially looking at right now is Tesla guys so for those of you guys that don't know yesterday Tesla announced that pretty much they're releasing a very cheap Model 3 we've been expecting it but yesterday we saw on the website you can get a Model 3 for about $27,000 base model whatever and of course there's packages you can add $5,000 for the autopilot like $2,000 for something else I can't remember off the top of my head but you know this caused some excitement in Tesla stock over the past couple of days we see from 288 guys it went all the way up to 325 got rejected by that resistance that we were talking about a couple of days ago but now we see a nice pullback and we're holding this 50 SMA here on this 180 chart and it's looking like we're pushing up heading into the market open here in about 13 minutes so I'm going to be watching to see are we going to continue this uptrend push here with the good news that we did get yesterday is it going to carry over into the market today and if it does guys we could potentially end up capturing a nice 3-4% margin of profit on Tesla from this support level back up to previous resistances at about 320 to 322 so that's what I'm pretty much watching as of right now guys at the time that I'm recording this video Tesla Coca-Cola, Square, Jnug and UWT slash DWT depending on what crude oil ends up doing here within the next 1 to 2 hours so I hope you guys enjoyed this quick little morning video if you did feel free to leave a like drop a comment down below let me know what you guys are trading I would love to know and of course if you're new to the channel consider subscribing hit that notification bell I make market update videos and trading update videos every single day with trading tips and personal finance videos sprinkled all around in this channel as well so I hope you guys enjoy all the content good luck today I'll catch you guys later

We're going to move ahead with our QI projects. Each of our residents, you know, is involved in a QI project. We're going to get some feedback on those today. The first up is Sean Collin, who is again going to talk to us in recorded fashion about Utah teleophthalmology project updates. Good afternoon, everyone. As I hinted at in my talk this morning, I'm back to give an update on the Utah teleophthalmology program. Unfortunately, I have little new to report in the way of data, but that's not to say that there hasn't been quite a lot of ongoing work. So I'll give a brief review of the project. Apologies if you've heard this twice or three times before. And then an update on where things are now. I started this project with Dr. Hansen really in my intern year with People's Health Clinic, a free clinic in Park City. We tried different cameras, different workflows, and quickly expanded to Moab Free Clinic, as well as the several federally qualified health centers under the Association for Utah Community Health, or OUCH umbrella. In all, we've been working with 17 different sites and a few others who have expressed interest in joining in the future. The project has evolved quite a bit in the past three years. This is data provided by community health centers with whom we've had the most substantial ongoing relationship. In October 2021, we were using a handheld camera with mediocre imaging at a single site and have subsequently grown to have incredible imaging capabilities at all seven of their sites. The solid orange line represents data from one of their larger clinic sites, the one with which we initially started. And the blue line represents all sites. The part of this project that really sets it apart from many other volunteer-based screening efforts is our partnership with Inuk. They've been incredibly supportive and helpful in designing this program to be sustainable, affordable for patients, and financially beneficial for all stakeholders, which is a tall order when using cutting-edge technology in these types of settings where many patients are uninsured or underinsured. We'll begin with using their eye screen system, which is a sort of artificial intelligence in the background system that still relies on physician readers. We hope to upgrade to their fully autonomous AI system eye art in the near future. In the meantime, the agreement will allow our retina fellows to be paid to review photos for the project. One thing that's particularly exciting is that Inuk has artificial intelligence algorithms for macular degeneration, glaucoma, and diabetic retinopathy progression tracking, which very recently received the CE mark in Europe, but are not approved for use in the U.S. Consequently, they're only available for use in the eye screen system, so our clinics will have the benefit of these new algorithms double checking, if you will, physician reads before almost anyone else in the country. Eye screen can be used with any camera, but across the board all clinics involved have been motivated to raise funds to buy this camera, the DRS+. And these photos are some examples of why. It's extremely high quality, and we've been seeing so much pathology, so many treatment naive young patients with proliferative diabetic retinopathy that have probably had minimal reduction in vision, but are on the precipice of blinding disease. Based on studies of similar populations, we also suspect that there is particularly high rate of glaucoma in this population, and we've been seeing photos that corroborate that. Unfortunately, this is really all anecdotal at this point. For almost the past year, Dr. Hansen and I have been doing 50-plus screenings per week at all seven community health center sites on a volunteer basis, but we have virtually no data to show for it. On the side of logistics, legal and privacy, we've been running into some roadblocks that have kept us stalled at this point for several months, and our ability to expand the program and collect data is limited without the INUC integration. We've attempted to gather data directly from reports from community health centers EMR, but the data that was pulled was clearly incomplete. We do know that many patients have been seen and have received care or surgery at the Moran and at clinics across the state, and in that sense we know it's been at least partially a success. The integration with INUC will allow us to begin gathering data at a more granular level and also on a project-wide level, and we hope to use this to track referral completions, treatments received, and outcomes more specifically. We're hopeful that once we have this foundational data, we'll be able to apply for an NIH grant with Dr. Stagg to use healthcare informatics to improve community health. This could be tremendously helpful in improving how results and referrals are communicated with patients and in helping to create the crucial bridge between screening and outcomes. For now, we're continuing to provide the support we can through the screening programs already in place, and remain hopeful that this can be a sustainable collaboration between the Moran, INUC, and our community safety net clinics that will provide an increasingly refined and high quality service for years to come. That's all for this update. Again, happy to hear any questions, comments, or suggestions. This is my personal email. Thanks, everyone.
