My name is Matt, and my wife and I started a apple orchard just a few years ago in 2014. We planted our first apples. We've been planting more ever since. We're experimenting with over 70 varieties of apples and trying to see which ones work well. We got our first tiny harvest this year, and we also started a cider company this year, a hard cider company. When I say cider, I'm referring to hard cider. Just to be clear, and so it's Bricks Cider LLC is the name of the cider company. We found out there's already a Bantum Cider out there, so we went with the new name Bricks. So I'm gonna talk today about my Sara Farmer Rancher Grant and the bit of research I did under it. And with Farmer Rancher Grants, where we typically start is with a problem. And the problem, as I saw it, is that we have a growing craft cider industry. That's not the problem. That's a great thing that craft cider is growing. In the North Central region, we're up to over 130 hard cider producers. And five or six years ago, that number was about 30. So it's been growing quite rapidly. And there's a lot of interest among all these small cider producers in using specialty cider apples, as opposed to just eating apple seconds, in order to create a higher value product, product that they can differentiate in the marketplace from the more mainstream large brand ciders. Unfortunately, we don't have a lot of information about apple varieties other than common eating apples. So, and there's just a little bit of a few research articles here and there that you can find, but it's not like wine, where there's whole fields of study and viticulture and analogy with cider. It's a very new field. And here's some shameless product placement. That's our new cider that just hit store shelves two days ago, literally. So I've been a busy guy. All right, next slide. So our solution to the problem is to do some cider apple research. And I feel very privileged to be able to get a little bit of money to make hard cider and drink it. So not many people are that lucky. And granted, there's a lot of research to be done. There's more to be done than I could do in a relatively small project, but I tried to start somewhere practical and interesting to me. And so what we did is we started with 40 different apple varieties. We got about a half bushel of each. I got most of them at one orchard in Wisconsin and then I could only get 30 from them, so I got the rest from another orchard. And we pressed each of these half bushels of apples individually and fermented them separately. So we had little one gallon batches of each different apple variety. And I tried to do everything the same with each one so that if you see any difference from one batch to the other, it's just coming from the apple. So they all have the same yeast. They all have the same yeast nutrient. Before fermentation, I put sodium metabysulfide in each one and that just kills any potential spoilage organisms. So if you see a wine that says contains sulfites, that's what they're doing with their wine as well. The same exact process, same temperature so that hopefully we're just gonna kind of see the differences from apple to apple. And then with each one, I tested the bricks, the pH, the total acidity and total tannins. And I'll get more into that in a second and what those numbers mean. And then we are still in the process of doing a more qualitative evaluation of things like aroma and different aspects of flavor and color and our overall impressions. So we've tasted most of them, there's still a couple left to do. Here's a couple photos of the process. You can see we started with half full bushels over there of all different apple varieties. And in the middle there on top there, all in their little one gallon fermenters fermenting away. And then over on the right, that's after we bottled them and then on the bottom in the middle, that's the finished ciders. And you can see there's some variability just in the color of them. So here's some results. I know you probably can't read all these specific apples on the bottom, but that's not that important. What this is is just a comparison of the bricks and what bricks is is the sugar content in the apples. If you make beer, you think in terms of specific gravity, specific gravity and bricks are essentially the same thing. And what the sugar content or bricks of the apple determines isn't so much how sweet the cider will be because the yeast is gonna ferment out all that sugar. What the bricks determines is how strong your cider will be, how the alcohol percentage is likely to be. And so these over on the right are gonna be a much stronger cider than the ones over on the left. I tend not to like to make a cider that's under 10 because it just starts to get a little, it tastes a little watered down. It's not as exciting. Unfortunately, none of these apples that we did were under 10. And some of my favorites were really these stronger ones over on the right. I think they tend to just have a little more body and a little more complexity to the flavor. Another thing we tested was acidity. And this, you're not necessarily looking for lower high. Most cider makers want something that's balanced during the middle. So you might blend a few different apples to get in the middle. And typically someone might wanna blend to get around six. So somewhere, a lot of our apples in this test aired towards higher acidity. But really acidity is a matter of preference and some people like a real tart, kind of green apple tart cider where others like something that's a little milder in terms of acidity. And then tannins, tannins are the interesting one. This is sort of the, this is really the key difference between the eating apple and a true cider apple because tannins are, they're really a whole range of compounds. They're sometimes grouped in a bigger category called polyphenols. But tannins tend to give some bitterness and some astringency to a cider. And if you think of an eating apple, you don't tend to think of it being bitter or astringent.  Or if you get that kind of woody flavor, that's tannins. Or, you know, beer's, bitterness is getting as big in beers right now with IPAs, indiapalials, that's one of the contributions of hops is bitterness. And with cider as well, we kind of like a bit of bitterness, like a bit of astringency. It just fills out a cider, makes it a little more interesting. And typically to consider an apple, a bitter apple, they say, if it's above this 0.2% threshold, for which we only had four that were considered bitter apples, then we had another handful that were kind of on the cusp where you could, as we're tasting, and we definitely note the tannins, but it's not very strong. If you go way over on the side over here, a lot of these are common eating apples, Gala, Gala, Cortland, Red Cortland, Snow, Honey, Crisp. There's not much at all for tannins and those. I would ideally have liked to have gotten more that were on this high end and I'm hoping to do a similar process next year working with some other local growers who have been growing cider-specific apples for 10 years or more where we could get some of these and we'd also have an initial filter from these growers of which apples are growing well for them based on their experience. So fingers crossed that that project comes through. So I thought I'd then mention just a couple of the apples that I thought were standouts that were pretty interesting, exciting ciders from my point of view. And one was this one, it's called the Arlington Mill. It's a traditional English cider apple. And as you can see, the cider itself was really an interesting, super dark color, chocolatey brown. And the aroma was very complex, very strong.  Nothing pinned it down perfectly, but it was like caramel, apple, brown sugar. There was something spicy like clove. There was something fruity like banana. It was really a complex aroma. And then the flavor matched. It was also really an enticing flavor. It would remind us of spiced rum or molasses and then there were some spicy notes like a niece. But also a little bit of bitterness and astringency. So it was really an interesting cider, unique. And as we drank it, we're like, if we could make a few hundred gallons of this, it would sell in an instant. Just if people tasted it, they'd want more. And I should make a quick note. If you look at some of these apples in the pictures, the orchard where I got most of these apples does not spray a thing. And so you'll see this has some sooty blotch and some fly speck on it. And that doesn't matter one bit for cider. Sooty blotch and fly speck are purely cosmetic. They're not gonna harm a cider whatsoever. So that's another interesting aspect of cider is it creates opportunities for a little bit more relaxed management strategy. I wouldn't recommend not spraying anything the way these folks do, but you can take a little more relaxed approach with growing cider apples. So here's another stand out. This one is a black ghillie flower. It's an heirloom American apple. And the cider that came out of it was really, it just reminded us of a white wine. It was fairly strong. It had these interesting fruity flavors like passion fruit or green grape. And this one also had a bit of tannins, not strong, but still there in the background, kind of a woody background that filled the cider out. So we thought, it's not a known, it's not a cider specific apple, but it really made a great cider. The next one, this one is, I had to put it in here because we're in Illinois. This is an heirloom cider apple from Illinois. Back in the 1800s, when cider was the drink of choice in the United States, this was one of the apples that they were growing around here. And it made a pretty interesting cider. And I wonder if it would have been even better if I had harvested it a little later, because I know this is a real late ripening apple. And as far as if I'm gonna do this type of research in the future, I think that's one improvement that I could do is really being careful about harvest dates. But even without even harvesting in early October when I did, it was still a very interesting cider, kind of earthy, spiced. It's often called minkler molasses. So it gets a darker color like that from the cider. And it was used for cider back in the day. So if you're looking for an heirloom Illinois cider apple, this might be an interesting one to go for. And then I added one more that I found pretty interesting, the Wisconsin Russet. And I added this one because it's actually just a wild apple that somebody found on their farm and made a very interesting cider. It was really acidic and just reminded us of tropical fruits. And we drank it on a cold, snowy winter night in Wisconsin and it kind of brought us to a more tropical place. But the point is that there's thousands of potential apples out there that we just haven't even tested. And this one from a pasture in Wisconsin made a pretty delicious cider. So if you have some pastures or some apples on your pastures, press them, give them a try, see what happens. You never know, you might find a really good one. And here's my last slide. If you want more results, so we have all those apples that were originally listed. We have more results on our website where you can look at, you can see a photo of each apple. You can see all the results, the bricks, the acidity, the tannins, you can see our description of the cider. We're still adding the photos of the ciders. We haven't finished all of them, but the website has each apple and the name of the apple and you can click on the apple and it'll take you to the more information on each one. So feel free to visit brickscider.com to learn more about any of these apples that you're interested in. So with that, I am done, I'll take some questions. How did you measure total acidity and tannins? So there are, so total acidity is fairly easy.  And it's just a simple titration and or you use, I don't even remember the reagent and then a polyphenol indicator and you just slowly drip it in and instructions are right on the box. That's pretty easy to do. Total tannins are a little more complicated. I wouldn't recommend it unless you are used to playing with dangerous chemicals. Because there's some sulfuric acid involved and a few other things. So I wouldn't recommend doing that one at home. Unless you have a chemistry lab or something like that. I'm curious about your overall ambitions for your business. And also, I know this is maybe premature, but what do you anticipate the difference year to year will be in terms of the same apple, you know? Yeah, so I'll take the second part of the question. First year to year differences, I think there definitely will be year to year differences. This year in particular, we had a weird year in Wisconsin this year and there was a late frost and so a lot of people didn't even get a good harvest. But then we had a super rainy fall and I think some of the, in some cases, bricks might be higher in a drier year because you're not gonna flood the apple quite as much. I saw some information from Washington State University just put out, just in 2016, they put out a little bit of research from some of their apples where they've been testing this over a couple of years and they're definitely seeing some variation from one year to another within the same apple. So yeah, I think there's gonna be some change, but at the same time, that variety is going to have something distinct about it that comes out each year. As far as our ambitions for our business, we are just getting our feet wet right now. We just did a few hundred gallons this year and we're test marketing it now and we're hoping next year to do about 10 times as much and then see how that goes and we're looking at a facility. So right now we did it. We produced it at a winery. We don't have our own licensed winery right now so we worked with a winery under a custom crush arrangement. So that's a way to get started if you don't want to invest in all the equipment and do it all yourself. You can work with a winery. I'm not sure what the rules are in Illinois, but in Wisconsin, cider is considered a wine and so it's the same licenses and permits and everything. And so we're looking at getting our own facility, hopefully going in 2018. We're looking at this coming year again using that same winery, but doing several batches with them instead of just the one that we did this year. As a follow-up to that, because I was wondering too, as you're doing all this great work and finding the individual descriptions of the varietals. So what you have on the shelf now is that a blend of different ones and what do you see as the future for a couple of these, would you put them out? Just as a single variety or is that kind of what you're trying to figure out along the way? Yeah, the cider we have out on the market right now, we actually made two batches.  The bigger batch is a blend of most of the eating apples from an orchard near us. And that's just because that's what's available and we didn't yet have much production on our farm. And the other batch was actually all wild apples that we harvested. And we only got about 30 gallons of cider, but it is really an interesting cider, came out really good. As far as longer term, we have about 1,000 trees growing now on our orchard and we're hoping to plant more of the variety, if we identify varieties we really like. And like I said, we have 70 varieties growing. If we find ones that are growing really well and we really like the cider, we're gonna try to feature more of those and plant more of those so that we can do some of the single varietal batches. And those would be, so it's our idea for our businesses is we'll have kind of a couple of standard ciders that are just using eating apple seconds that we purchase and then some more specialty ciders that are maybe a little higher price point that feature interesting cider apples. Sounds like what you're doing is very exciting. Could you talk a little bit about the setup at the startup, collecting your trees? Did you plant rootstock? Did you graft? And then talk a little bit about maybe pests, deer brows and then also pruning and how you're gonna manage your orchard. Yeah, we've grafted most of them ourselves. It can be pretty expensive to get more rare uncommon varieties from a nursery. So we've grafted the vast majority of them. We've grafted ourselves and we've gotten scion wood from kind of all over wherever we find interesting cider apples will buy the scion wood or even some of the ones on from the orchard where we got a lot of these apples, they just gave us some free scion wood. And then we've grafted it all on mostly on Geneva 11 rootstock which is a dwarfing rootstock which the advantages to dwarfing rootstock are number one, it produces a lot sooner. You don't have to wait eight years. You get some fruit after two or three years. And the other advantage is it's way easier to pick and manage and prune because it's not this big monster of a tree that we have to be climbing up and down a ladder. It's something you can just do from standing on the ground. And as far as pests and diseases were, like I said earlier, we're not too worried about cosmetic things but at the same time we need to keep the trees healthy and productive.  A nearby cider apple grower has lost a lot of trees to fire blight and so we're gonna be careful with that one. We can have a bit of scab or rust but you don't want it to get to the point where it is weakening your trees. So we're still managing for those but in a little less aggressive way than someone who wants a picture perfect apple that they can sell at the store. You mentioned that you were selling your cider. Where are you selling it? Is that in stores or where are you marketing it? Yeah, for now we're selling it at stores in the Madison area because we're just west of Madison. We're planning longer term to have a tasting room and we're looking at a facility this Friday which is a possibility and you can get a lot better margin selling and direct to customer obviously. So we're hoping to get a facility that would bring in some tourism, where we could host events and things and bring in people and build some brand loyalty that way. Have you encountered challenges with any licensure or distribution things and lessons you might want to share with people who are interested in pursuing something like this? It is a legal maze, definitely, to make alcohol is really carefully regulated and some of the previous presentations were about food processing which is also very carefully regulated. As a cider maker you are also a food processor so you have to follow all those rules just like anybody else. But then on top of that you need to get a wine permit and there's special tax code for wine and cider and cider is different than wine and it depends on the alcohol percent and it depends on the level of carbonation and it's very confusing and it just takes a little while to learn it. Labels can be very complicated as well. If you're below 7% you fall under FDA labeling regulations. If you're above 7% as then under the Tax and Trade Bureau and you're gonna need to get their label approved. So it's this Byzantine legal morass and you could spend a whole day talking about it. In pursuing the tannins in a nut production there can be too much tannin. Is that even an issue in this? I would say no. So if you saw that where I had the tannins listed there was that one apple that was way off the charts. I think if you, and it turned out that that was the one apple that I didn't get enough of the apple to actually produce a gallon and ferment it out. I have a feeling if I tasted that one on its own it would be too bitter. But at the same time I would love to have a bunch of that apple so that I could blend it with some eating apples and still get that tannin. And you could probably do like 10% of that apple and 90% eating apple and get a bit of tannic flavor. And then there's also, people are experimenting with adding other ingredients to get tannins with mixed results. And generally what you add is gonna be different than the tannins in an apple. But you can still get some interesting ciders adding. I haven't tried adding nuts, maybe it's a good idea.


I hope everyone is feeling really caffeinated and excited to talk about web security this morning. Thanks for coming out so early. My name is Emily Schechter. I'm the product manager for the Chrome security team. And today I'm going to talk about HTTPS. And I'm really excited to talk to you about HTTPS this year because this year we've reached a turning point where we're finally starting to see a whole lot of HTTPS out there on the web. Here's a graph of Chrome page loads over HTTPS for two of our platforms. And you can see that recently things have really taken off. More than three quarters of Chrome page loads on Windows are now HTTPS. And Android is showing a really strong trajectory as well with more than half of page loads over HTTPS. So we're finally in an HTTPS first web. In early 2016, we published an HTTPS transparency report which shows the HTTPS status for the top 100 sites on the web. And we now see 60 of those top 100 sites supporting HTTPS. And of those, 56 are defaulting to HTTPS.  So I'll remind you of how it actually does this. HTTPS actually gives us three security properties. The first is identity. When you type HTTPS Google.com into your browser, your browser receives a certificate that proves the server is the real Google.com, not some other server who's pretending to be Google.com. The second is confidentiality. Once your browser knows that you're talking to the real Google.com with that certificate proof, both the browser and the server have a guarantee that only they can read the data that's being passed between them and not anyone else eavesdropping on the network. And finally, integrity. The browser and the server have a guarantee under HTTPS that when they send data from one to the other, the data they send is what the other party receives. So an intermediary on the network can't modify or tamper with the data that's being sent. So these are the three security properties that we get from HTTPS. And without HTTPS, things start to look pretty scary. Without HTTPS, you have absolutely no idea what site you're actually viewing and talking to. Without HTTPS, you can have absolutely no expectation that the data you're sending, like your password or your credit card, for example, hasn't been eavesdropped on or stolen. And without HTTPS, you can have absolutely no expectation that the site you're viewing hasn't been modified in some way, like maybe ads or malware have been injected by someone on the network. And this is important because the web has always been a pretty powerful place. The content of the sites that we browse through says a lot about our behavior, our identity, and our intentions. And recently, the web has become even more powerful. New APIs allow sites to know more information about us than they ever have before. And the more amazingly awesome and powerful we make the web, the more important it is for us to not give these superpowers to a bad actor.  It's really just the bare minimum in terms of responsibility for that great power. HTTPS gives us the guarantees we need to trust using the web. And this is why Chrome and the web security community want to move towards a web where HTTPS is everywhere. So HTTPS is important. And what's great is that we're seeing so much momentum as the whole web ecosystem moves toward a place where HTTPS is everywhere. We're seeing sites around the world, across different verticals and industries, migrating to HTTPS. And we're seeing different pieces of the HTTPS ecosystem come together to make it really easy and automated for new sites to be HTTPS by default for free. A vital piece of this HTTPS ecosystem is the certificate authority ecosystem. So certificate authorities give sites the certificates they need to use to make HTTPS connections. Let's Encrypt is one of those certificate authorities. It happens to be a free and automated one. And they've published some really amazing metrics that show how HTTPS is taking off at scale across the web. As of January, Let's Encrypt was supporting more than 20 million active certificates in total. And I just checked yesterday. They tweeted that they just passed 40 million secure websites, which is really pretty amazing. They've even issued more than a million certificates in a single day a few times. So this is amazing progress towards getting the whole web to be HTTPS everywhere. And one of the ways that Let's Encrypt has taken off is by partnering with platform players and website creation tools. So one of these platforms that has enabled massive HTTPS ecosystem change is WordPress.com. For those not familiar with WordPress.com, you can use the platform to create beautiful websites and blogs for free or enhance them with premium services or add WordPress solutions for enterprises. To give you a sense of scale, WordPress.com has to date secured over 1 million unique customer domains. So I talked to WordPress.com to get a sense of their story and how they got there. So in mid-2014, WordPress.com took their first steps as part of an initiative called Reset the Net. And this involved migrating all WordPress.com subdomains to HTTPS. So this is all sites without custom domains, as well as their WordPress.com admin traffic. Then in January 2016, WordPress.com switched their first 100,000 custom domains over to HTTPS only. And they actually did this by working with Let's Encrypt. So Let's Encrypt gave WordPress.com an efficient and automated way to provide certificates for hundreds of thousands of sites at scale. And by April of last year, WordPress.com had moved traffic for all of their customer domains on both WordPress.com and on custom domains to HTTPS. And they make it really easy. It's not opt-in. It's on by default. And it's not a paid premium. It's for free. And there's no configuration or intervention required at all. So scaled support from platforms like this and from all around the web ecosystem has helped us get to this amazing HTTPS first web, where most of the top sites on the web are supporting and defaulting to HTTPS. But we weren't always here. So this is not too long ago, back when we first published this HTTPS transparency report in early 2016. Really not very many of those top 100 sites were supporting HTTPS. And of those, not too many had HTTPS by default. So we didn't really know if HTTPS was going to take off everywhere. And this was because there used to be some pretty significant challenges to migrate to HTTPS. When you used to think about migrating to HTTPS, maybe you used to think that it was going to be expensive, or it was going to hurt the performance of your site, or it was going to be a lot of maintenance. And a lot of these hurdles really have gotten much easier in recent years, because people all over the web's ecosystem have really cared about getting to a future where HTTPS is everywhere. But even with these improvements, HTTPS migrations do take careful planning. They take time, and they take coordination. So for the rest of this talk, we'll go over three case studies from sites who have recently migrated to hear first hand what challenges they did come across and what they learned during their HTTPS journey. And I'll finish by talking about some upcoming changes in Chrome and what these changes might mean for those remaining HTTP sites. So we'll start first with CNET. CNET is a site that publishes tech product reviews, news, videos, and more. So to hear first hand about their HTTPS experience, please welcome the vice president of engineering and technology at CNET, John Sherwood. Thank you, Emily. Hi, everyone. Thanks again for coming out so early on a Friday, especially after the concert last night. I'd always dreamed of performing on stage at the shoreline. I didn't think it would be in a parking lot in a tent, but I'll take it. Just to give you a little context, first of all, CNET is the world's leader in tech media brand with tens of millions of people coming to us every month to consume our tech news, our product reviews, our how-tos, and videos on multiple platforms. We were founded in 1994, which may mean we're older than some of you here. And that also means we have a very long tail of content that we have to deal with. CBS acquired CNET in 2008 to form CBS Interactive. Nearly 300 million people come to our properties every month, which makes us the seventh largest digital media property. And for some context, the top five include Google, Amazon, Facebook, Microsoft, and Yahoo. So we're in pretty good company. Most recently, we just won two Webby awards for Best Consumer Electronics website, as well as a People's Voice Award. And we're very proud of those. So today, I'm going to talk to you about our path to HTTPS. I'll highlight some of the challenges we face and how we resolve them, as well as some key steps we took for our rollout and how we mitigated the risks. And finally, I'll cover some of the results of our transition. I'm going to warn you that this timeline may look rather long. And a couple of things, we did have some of the challenges that Emily mentioned, as well as we took a very conservative approach, because we wanted to protect our business. So for now, we'll start back in Q4 of 2014. So of course, we've been using HTTPS to provide a safe and secure environment for our users when their personal data was involved for things like login and registration. However, we discovered that secure iframes in a non-secure environment were vulnerable to attack. And this meant we had to change some of our user experience. That didn't make our product team very happy. We also had, let's see, and then in late 2014, Google announced that HTTPS would become part of the ranking signal. And as intended, we were incented to take advantage of that. Another driving factor was we wanted to take advantage of the performance improvements that HTTP2 could give us, such as multiplexing or single connection. There were additional capabilities that HTTPS would unlock, such as geolocation. And we also wanted to build a progressive web app. And this would require a lot of service workers to allow for push notifications or offline mode. So we were very excited, and we wanted to start taking a look at how we could move to HTTPS. And unfortunately, we discovered there were some big challenges. So first off, probably the biggest challenge for us was the cost of serving secure content through our CDN. It was going to be extremely expensive. So we were going to have to renegotiate that contract, which we did in late 2015. We would have to work with a lot of our ad clients and providers and third parties to give us safe and secure tags. This required a lot of outreach and education. We actually had to tell some people, no, you can't just put an S at the end. We also had to update our entire video stack. We had the same CDN cost and ad tech issues. But we also had to make some significant changes in our delivery infrastructure. And then, of course, there were the unknowns. We'd heard horror stories of sites that had moved over to HTTPS and had a big bad impact on their SEO performance. We were able to meet with a few of them and talk about best practices, what had gone well, what had gone wrong with their migrations. For example, one of the sites told us that they had turned on their 301 redirects, but they had not unblocked their secure robots file. So search engines were following the redirects and then not able to crawl their secure site. And it took them a few hours to discover that. And Google's also published a lot of best practices, which we followed to a T and helped us a lot. We had also heard ad CPMs were going to be much lower. And unfortunately, this was not really something we could find out from other people. We just heard rumors. So we had to test that one ourselves. And then finally, there's performance. We were concerned of the impact that HTTPS was going to have on every single request. Of course, there are techniques you can use with HTTP2, as Emily mentioned. And in fact, last year at Google I.O., there was an excellent talk called Missbusting HTTPS. And it covers a lot of these. So by Q4 of 2015, we resolved most of these challenges and we were ready to get serious about our migration. So to mitigate the risks, we knew we had to take a phased approach. First off, we formed a small team and it was led by two Rockstar engineers who are here. Tyler Batliner and Jonathan Miller. So you should hit them up afterwards if you want to get the gory details about what actually happened. To kick things off, we moved our static assets and this allowed us to immediately take advantage of HTTP2. We moved our images, our CSS, our JavaScript. We then began the process of moving all the third-party dependencies, so all of the ads, third-party tracking. And we implemented a content security policy. We used a great free tool called report-uri.io and this gave us visibility into all the sub-requests that were being made that were not secure. And then our next phase was an A-B test and this wasn't gonna be available to search engines but this would allow us to expose a segment of our users to a secure site and we could measure our core KPIs as well as the impact on performance. And then by August, we'd finally address all the dependencies and we felt good about the A-B test data and we were ready to move forward with a public launch of our site. We did it in seven phases over the course of about two months which was about once every two weeks and we started with CNET Roadshow which is our site for car owners and enthusiasts. So for each phase, we would start by rewriting all of the links, hrefs, canonicals. We had to make changes in our web apps and in our data. We did this everywhere except for one exception. We ensured we had both site maps for that section for both HTTP and HTTPS and here's whether one exception is our HTTP site map. Included HTTP references that way when we turned on our 301 redirects, the Googlebot could find and follow those links and find our redirects and index us. Then we updated our robots files to include those site maps. One thing to note, our secure robots file had already been crawled and cached by Google so we had to submit it along with our site maps to the Google Search Console to get it to update. And then finally we turned on 301 redirects and we launched and started monitoring all our core KPIs. And so we monitored our site metrics, all of the search engine refers, 301 redirect levels and our ad performance and we were happy to see that we didn't see any negative impact. This here shows Roadshow when we launched in the middle here is August when we launched and as you can see there was no negative impact to our search refers. This is an expanded view across our entire rollout. Once again, there was no negative impact to our search engine refers. And this looks at our ad CPMs. Once again, no negative impact across the entire rollout. And finally, performance. This is our rum data for page load and with HTTP2 we were able to mitigate any impacts there and this was solid. So in late October, just a couple of weeks after we went fully live, we were able to launch our first progressive web app, CNET Tech Today, which is our progressive web app version of our popular iOS app, which gives you the 10 most recent important tech stories of the day. And so once the foundation was laid, all the sites here on the left have now gone to HTTPS and the sites on the right are in progress. So we've seen great results and I would encourage you if you're thinking about moving, now's the time to do it, go ahead. And with that, I'll turn it back over to Emily. Thank you. Thanks so much, John. Those are some really cool graphs to see. So as you just heard from CNET, HTTPS migrations can actually be quite complicated. And this really depends on how complex your site is. HTTPS migrations can require careful planning to make sure that the migration goes smoothly. So I'll use a second case study to highlight how project management and migration planning can help ensure a smooth transition. Rakuten is one of the world's leading internet services companies, offering a wide variety of services for consumers and businesses with a focus on e-commerce, finance, and digital content. Rakuten is headquartered in Tokyo and it operates throughout Asia, Europe, and America. And you may know some of these Rakuten companies. Their e-commerce platform, Rakuten Ichiba, is the largest e-commerce site in Japan. And besides e-commerce, Rakuten services cross many other verticals like payments, banking, insurance, sports, media, and communication across three continents. So you might imagine that moving a huge global ecosystem like Rakuten all over the HTTPS might not be that easy. So Rakuten started looking into their HTTPS migration and they realized that the task was going to be massive and complicated. They realized that they wanted to move over 250 websites and 350 non-website services. And they found that there were over 3,000 interdependencies between these. For example, multiple websites might be relying on the same ad network or API. And because tens of thousands of merchants rely on Rakuten's online marketplace, any HTTPS issue could have damaged the business of these merchants. So a brave group of program managers at Rakuten formed a program approach to steer the migration across the entire Rakuten ecosystem. So Rakuten divided their ecosystem into a number of smaller project teams. And in each group, a lead was assigned to coordinate the HTTPS migration for that group. And then each of these leads reported into the program management office who then reported to a steering committee of Rakuten execs. And this centralized program management office is the key here because they provided a ton of centralized support that provided a bunch of different benefits that allowed Rakuten to smoothly migrate this complex ecosystem over to HTTPS. The centralized program management office dealt with some key migration pieces for the whole company so that technical teams could focus on their own areas of responsibility. Here are some of the pieces that were centralized by the program management office. Information sharing of best practices. The office provided a tool for engineering teams across the globe to ask similar questions and get responses. It provided information sharing workshops and newsletters. There were centralized dashboards so Rakuten had a single source of data and reporting to quickly escalate any real issue within the project teams. And there were centralized risk management. So the program management committee made sure that each of those project teams knew what specifically to look out for and what concern was actually just an HTTPS myth. The program structure specifically helped Rakuten to manage cross-company dependencies. So they mapped out which services had the most dependencies and services that multiple sites relied on became high priority migration targets. This has helped put Rakuten on the path successful HTTPS migration for those 250 websites and more than 350 non-website services. So by March their services were about 80% migrated to HTTPS and they're still on great track to finish their migration by their target date. So Rakuten was able to use effective project management to avoid migration risks for a really complex ecosystem migration. And a quick shout out to Will from Rakuten. He's actually the program manager who led this effort and he's here today and we'll be around after the talk to answer any questions about their migration. So taking a step back from HTTPS, we're all here at Google I.O. It's incredibly early on a Friday morning. You spent the last two days hearing a lot about progressive web apps. And you've been hearing about some amazing capabilities that your site can have with progressive web apps. Some of these capabilities you've probably already learned about from the many talks already in the past few days. Service workers can give your site a huge host of new capabilities like the ability to work offline and huge performance improvements. Add to home screen lets your site feel more like an app with access from your launching screen. Push notifications, keep users coming back and engaged. And some new performance improvements like HTTP2 and Broutly Compression can really improve site performance, especially for those users with poor connection quality. And you may have heard that all of these capabilities actually require HTTPS as a baseline in order for you to unlock them. So the next case study that I'll talk about was motivated to move to HTTPS to create a progressive web app with these new capabilities. And they saw firsthand how HTTPS enabled them to do even more with their site. This site is Trivago. It's a global hotel search platform. Focusing on reshaping the way travelers search for and compare hotels. And as I mentioned, Trivago was specifically motivated to move to HTTPS by the set of capabilities that Chrome and other browsers require HTTPS in order to unlock. And they were able to create a really amazing set of experiences with these capabilities. So here's what some of these capabilities look like for Trivago. With add to home screen, a dialogue allows users to access the app from their home screen. Trivago's new offline awareness helps users even when there's no connection. This is a huge improvement from losing frustrated users who lost their connection while on the site. And they mentioned actually about 2% of their users will lose a connection one time while they're on the site. So instead you can now play this fun maze game. It kind of reminds me of the Chrome offline dino game. And they can also create functionality like helping people to retrieve hotel information when they're offline traveling. And Trivago will also roll out push notifications so that users can be notified when the price for a certain hotel drops significantly. And they also rolled out some amazing performance improvements with service workers and HTTP2. You've probably heard a little bit about service workers already today. HTTP2, if you haven't heard of it, it's the next version of HTTP, which is now supported in many browsers, including Chrome and Firefox. And using HTTP2, you can do things like multiplexing and server pushing, which optimize performance for HTTP requests, especially for your users who have the worst and the slowest connections. So I'll give you a quick PM explain about how cool HTTP2 is. So Chrome usually speaks to web servers using HTTP11. So Chrome will open a communication channel, send a request to the server and wait for a response back. And with HTTP11, it will actually open up to six of these communication channels. So now with H2, there's actually only one communication line using what's called streams to transfer data. So the data will be broken down and sent back in chunks according to the priority of the request. This is called multiplexing. And besides multiplexing, the server will also assume that Chrome will want a few other files like CSS and JavaScript. And this is called server pushing, where they send it automatically. And all of this together makes H2 way more efficient than HTTP11. Remember, this is only available over HTTPS. You might wonder why is this only available over HTTPS? There's actually a really practical reason for this. And that's compatibility. There's some intermediaries and things like proxies that are likely to get kind of confused, or in some cases actually break things when they see HTTP2 traffic, because it looks so different from HTTP1 traffic. So we need the integrity guarantees of HTTPS to be able to support HTTPS without breaking things. So Trivago rolled out HTTPS and H2, and here's what they found. With their HTTPS migration, they saw no major performance effects for their central markets of the UK and Germany. They did see some minor impact on some HTTPS connections, but they were able to win it back and more using available optimizations. At the same time that they migrated to HTTPS, they added some new dedicated HTTPS terminator nodes, and they turned on another performance optimization called Keep Alive. And in their locations that were further geographically and tended to have a little bit more latency, like Australia, for example, they found that Keep Alive improved their site response time by about 800 milliseconds. And then they started sending HTTP2 requests at the beginning of April, just about a month and a half ago, and their data already looks really great. Their average number of connections dropped sharply because of that HTTP2 multiplexing, where multiple assets are sent over the same connection. So here's a graph of the average number of connections to Trivago's CDN, and you can see that on the day they turn on HTTP2, the number of connections is dropping sharply. Trivago also shared that before starting their migration, they were similarly concerned that it might affect their SEO. So they carefully measured their SEO during the migration, and what they actually found was that HTTPS did not negatively impact their organic search impressions and clicks. So here's a nice graph of their search clicks during the migration, and you can see that as the traffic triv... Sorry, it switches over to HTTPS across their platforms. There's even a positive impact on SEO, which they think might be partly due to seasonal effects. So Trivago's HTTPS migration enabled them to create amazing and fast experiences with their web app. So we just talked about three cases from sites who recently migrated to HTTPS, and you've heard about the drivers that cause these sites to want to migrate to HTTPS. So for the past few years, I've talked to a bunch of sites about their HTTPS migrations, and when I asked them about what drives them to migrate to HTTPS, many of them actually mentioned browser UI. So in Chrome, we indicate connection security with an icon in the address bar, and we've actually changed this icon over time to more clearly explain the risks of non-secure HTTP. So this is what our icon for all HTTP sites used to look like, and this was a problem because it did not give users a warning, did not communicate the risks of using non-secure HTTP. We would like to represent non-secure HTTP sites with this scary, dangerous triangle icon, but if we were to introduce this icon right away on all HTTP sites, we think it could actually cause harm. When users see warnings too many times, it's proven that they'll get what's called warning fatigue where they stop paying attention to warnings. So we don't want to introduce warning fatigue, plus we don't want the internet to seem like a scary place. We don't want people to be afraid of using the web or to stop using the web. So we're on a mission to be honest without inducing chaos and panic. So we have a plan to slowly introduce browser UI so that we can balance exposure to the warnings while gradually increasing honesty about HTTP. So in January of this year, we began showing warnings on HTTP pages with password or credit card form fields. And we chose this as a first step because there's limited user exposure to HTTP password and credit card pages, so there's really low risk of warning fatigue. And also because it's conceptually pretty understandable to users that there might be some risks involved with transmitting a password or a credit card online. And we did see great impact from this change. In Chrome Desktop, we actually saw a 23% reduction in the fraction of page navigations that include password or credit card forms over HTTP since we've launched these warnings. So we decided that we're ready to take the next step. So I'm happy to announce that starting in October with Chrome 62, Chrome will show this not secure warning in two additional situations. First is when users enter data on an HTTP page. As shown here, the warning will expand when you type into an HTTP page. In addition, we also think that when you're browsing the web in Chrome's incognito mode, you might want to know when your connection isn't actually private to others on the network. For those that are not familiar with Chrome incognito mode, it's a Chrome privacy feature that opens a new window where Chrome won't save your browsing history, so others who might use your device won't see that activity. But it doesn't change whether your connection to those sites, HTTP or HTTPS, are private to others on the network. So in Chrome 62, it will show the not secure warning on all HTTP pages visited in incognito mode. So we hope that these gradual changes will help users to understand the risks of non-secure HTTP. And we also hope that announcing the change ahead of time gives sites that are still HTTP ample time to migrate before users start seeing the warning. So we've talked through cases from CNET, from Rockerton and from Trivago, who've shown real world examples of smooth HTTPS migrations. They've shown how HTTPS can help unlock amazing capabilities to create awesome features that delight users, that help their business, and that help protect their data. And finally, we've talked through some upcoming changes in Chrome that will help users to understand the true lack of security in HTTP connections, and that hopefully will help bring us even closer to ubiquitous HTTPS. We're in an HTTPS-first world, but we're not all the way there yet. So if any of you work at a company with a website and your site is still HTTP, I encourage you to go out there and start planning what it means for your website to migrate to HTTPS. If we continue working together, we can make the entire web secure by default.

old, old my machines, you would see these huge, you know, gadgets that are like, you have to dial in the frequencies one at a time. So if you have a sequence, let's say for, um, intestinal inflammation or for diabetes or something, it will be like 10 frequencies, right? So you would have to turn the knobs, dial it into the right frequency, flip on the switch and sit there for three minutes or a few minutes. And then when you go to the next frequency, you can dial it all over again. So it takes a lot of manual operation and to learn how to use it. So a lot of stuff like they're very difficult to use. So what I did is I said, I've, you know, I've developed software for the last seven years. Why don't I just make it software and make it easier for people to get this therapy wherever they are. And you just literally turn it on, put it on your desk. It has a field, this has a field range of about 20 feet and put on your desk, put it in the middle room and you can have many people in the same room.


In the sixth inning of game two of the World Series, we had a phenomenal performance by a fan in left field. You can see him here. He's like shuffles three feet over, gets his Zach Hampton, gets himself in place. Perfect form, leans back, makes the grab with the belly hanging out. The Giants fan behind him gives a little protection there, a little extra protection to guard from the fall. He doesn't need protection, doesn't even protect himself, just leans on to the seats and poses for the camera because he just caught the home run ball and it gets even better. He stands up and says, I'm gonna throw it back. I'm gonna throw it back. No, I'm not. Oh, I'm gonna throw my glove. Oh, oh. Sorry, sorry. Good job. Good job. Sorry, sorry. I had the ball. I had to throw something. Couldn't throw the ball. Oh, this slow-mo here is delightful. I'm gonna throw it back. I'm gonna throw it back. No, I'm gonna throw my glove.  Randy throws the glove right back to him and then he celebrates that. So now this dude caught a ball and a glove from the field to play. Just having a great World Series and then it gets even better when we find out he's wearing that necklace and that bracelet and has that mullet and that mustache. So just checks all the boxes of everything you need. Just delightful. The lady to his left mimicking him. Boom, throwing it back. He can't believe it. Just so excited. Gonna check the social medias, go on the Facebook machine, get some texts from the neighbors saying I saw you on the game. Yeah, yeah, yeah. So I mean, just a perfect look. Drinking a Sprite mask below his chin, obviously. Great hair, showing everyone the replay of the fantastic playmate. Guy behind him says, hey, can I see that ball, man? Here you go, man. That's amazing. That's so awesome, man. Proud of you. And then, I mean, that's really it.  This, the second fake throw. All right, we got a legit fake throw. This second fake throw is pretty good.  And then he actually threw. Big fan of this guy, man. Just a big fan. Just this best performance of game two, hands down.


At this time, we're not exactly sure why, but for some reason it tilted over onto its right side. Truck is loaded with approximately 20 tons worth of chicken and chicken parts. There's been all kinds of wrecks here the same way, with different reasons. Sometimes it's because the curve was taken too fast, sometimes it's because of load shifts. However, hopefully in the future, the state is aware of it and they have been looked into it. As far as any kind of environmental hazard, as you can tell EPA was here, but we had to give them a call because of some of the stuff that's inside, as far as fluids and stuff. But there's no, at this time, there's no life threat, health hazard or anything like that.


Antipsychotic medications increase the risk of metabolic syndrome, which then increases the risk of atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease and premature death. Routinely monitoring for signs of metabolic syndrome and patients taking antipsychotics allows for early detection and intervention. Psychiatric pharmacists can improve patient care through metabolic syndrome monitoring and recommendation of appropriate interventions, which includes managing weight gain, lipids, and blood pressure.

YouTube, no money spent, no money Monday, here we go. And Debbie is your maddened bull. What is up with these guys? No, we can be super bummer, dude. I'll be honest with you guys, the God squad, much squad, zero chill, ghost and mud.   So we'll play some no money spent, we're gonna keep grinding wards, we're gonna keep grinding the zero chill event. I'll pull out there. One of the best modes they ever put in the game. Let me show you guys what we get. We're closing in on seriously 70,000 YouTube subs. We've been actually farming 70,000 right around the corner. So if you guys haven't hit that subscribe button, like the video, if you're loving no money spent, I'll show you the team. I'm rocking, we're right now. Can we win our first Ward or Elliott? Let's go, this is what we got on offense. We're rocking 88 Michael Vick with gift wrap and the backyard baller. I'll be honest, man, I really don't use this backyard baller enough like I should. I wish I was better at it and did it more, but I don't use it. So I gotta get better at that with this team as it goes on. But as you see, no gunslinger, no set feed lead. We gotta get used to that for sure. But that's who we're rocking. The free Mike Vick that they gave us 88 overall. Travis Etienne at running back 90 overall. He's one of my snow dudes I won on one of my last runs for the zero chill thing. Keith Kirkwood, Marquis Brown and Romeo Dobbs are my wide receivers. I believe they're 88 speed, 89 speed and Marquis Brown is 91 speed. So he's my fastest, okay. Just in reference, my God squad is 98 speed across the board. So a little bit different. This is my O-line, don't anybody let you tell you otherwise O-line is kind of irrelevant here. I do have the Lynch pin ability I believe I have on Kevin Moai that gives you stronger blocking on every single player. So I do have that. So I don't know if that helps or not, probably placebo, but there it is. We still got this God right here. He's an absolute Lord. Hopefully he gets a team in a weak card.  I have 84 Isaiah likely, 83 speeds, six, five. This is my tight end. This is it. This is the tight end right here boys. Boom. He's a monster. I hope he gets a team in a week. So he gets a really good card and mutt. But you guys probably used them earlier in the year. He's a monster. Defense, we got 86 Sean Taylor free safety with pick artists. We got 80, I don't know what 80 overall this legend Ed Reid is. The first Ed Reid that came out this year. Deep end zone. He's going to be in the deep third. Paul Krause at corner is deep zone knockout on the deep zone. And then we have Cam Britt. We have killer weather spoon. We actually have 92 Rodney Barber. I'm actually using one of my nine or over 88s at slot corner, which is a waste, but it's no money spent. It's all I got. Tavius Robinson, Deron Payne and Trayvon Walker are my linemen. This is my three down linemen. Ted Hendricks and Darnell Savage are my linebackers. So this is what I got. This is my team. No money spent. This mode they put in the game is major. You can play with a team like this and kind of compete. At least make some snow, upgrade your players and keep grinding, man. Like I said, hit that subscribe button. We're closing it on 70,000. Happy new year. We're going to keep killing it. We're going to grind harder than ever in Madden 24 and in the Madden 25. Hopefully NCA cross our fingers that that comes out. But what's going to come out is this run for Tivaris Warder, Ziggy Oly. Can we get it done with this team, boys? Yeah, no money spent is too good. I got to start over. Oh, Vic had that right hand.  Romeo dives, bro. I mean, I like, I slowed down too much. Try to make sure that I wasn't, I didn't get lost.  Just love to see it.  Here we go. Here we go. Shawnti. Let's go Savage. I mean Lamar won MVP.  Oh, the Eagles about to turn up, I'll be honest. The Eagles are going to turn up here. We're going to turn up, believe it. He's tight. Yeah, yeah, that was the first game of the year where I can't really blame our stuff. What do you want, Tim? Woo-hoo-hoo, Kirkwood the Vic. I mean, Vic to Kirkwood, that was a dot. I can't lie. Woo-hoo-hoo, no Seppy lead. Just dots, just dots, boys, just dots. Oh, we were just ungodly slow.  Oh, my God. I mean, come on, man, how are we not back?   Oh, my God. Fuck, man.   This content. How does he got all these people?  I said, what is he doing? I said, hold on, what's this guy got going on out here? I mean, really, honestly, Hertz should be at the field because of defensive. It's just such easy scores down there.  We just engage him, but bro, we need some more effort. But hit him. We're playing AOA Jax for our Chevarius Ward, no money spent. Trying to win our first Chevarius Ward. This could be big here, boys. This could be, as some say, huge. I wanna just go on record here and saying that this mode they put in the game might be the best mode they've ever put in the game. Might be the best. And they've done it twice this year with the Darren Wallers and the Darren Waller event in this event. Honestly, as anybody that likes Madden, how can you not like this event, dude? Seriously.  I'm able to kind of compete.  No, but like, should be able to beat this one. The Legend Ed. The Legend Ed Reid. Love to see it. We got a Ward, boys. We got our first Ward of all time.


Sorry for the interruption, we'll get right into this episode but first I have a very quick and important message about your retirement. What will your savings in retirement look like once we've declared victory over the virus? Did you know that it took nearly 8 years for the markets to recover after the 2008 housing bubble crash?

Today we're going to take a look at yesterday's Coronavirus Task Force briefing and the hilarious exchange between President Trump and the CCP asset Ouija Zhang. Zhang has a long history of being a DNC mouthpiece. She once claimed that Trump lied when he accused Obama of funding Iran's military even though this is a well-known documented fact. She's been a big defender of extremist Democrats like Elon Omar while attacking her critics. And as you may have guessed, she was very interested in hard-hitting questions about Brett Kavanaugh, but I couldn't find a single word spoken about her in regards to Joe Bynes' Me Too accusations. She seems way more interested in lecturing and talking down to the President of the United States than during her job as a professional reporter. And let me just say that it's not tough questions that are the problem. It's this partisan political showboating masquerading as hard-hitting factual news. President, you're caught on the issue. Yes, I did. Thank you, I appreciate it. Angry because information about the virus shouldn't have been told to us earlier and a lot sooner. People knew it was happening and people did not want to talk about it. Many Americans are saying the exact same thing about you, that you should have warned them the virus was spreading like wildfire through the month of February instead of holding rallies with thousands of people. Why did you wait so long to warn them and why did you not have social distancing until March 16th? See, the very first thing she does is deflect from China's role in this virus spreading across the world and places the blame on Trump just like the Democrat Party and China would probably prefer. First, she claims that Trump should have warned Americans sooner about the virus that was quote, spreading like wildfire, taking attention off of China. The fact is, Trump was talking about this in January and instituted a travel ban for Chinese foreign nationals, which is far more than any Democrat was doing at the time, and it was an action that the media attacked as racist. Many Americans are saying the exact same thing about you, that you should have warned them the virus was spreading like wildfire through the month of February instead of holding rallies with thousands of people. Oh, here we go with this old media trick. Many Americans have said that, have they?  What rallies is she talking about? Trump was actually the first one to cancel all of his rallies. The president had one rally on March the 2nd in North Carolina, then canceled the rest through April. You want to know who else had rallies in March? Joe Biden and Bernie Sanders. Bernie had one on March 7th and Joe had one on March 10th, both drawing thousands of people. But without any outrage or lecturing from the media. Why did you wait so long to warn them and why did you not have social distancing until March 16th? Who are you with? I'm Li-Jia Jang with CBS News. So, if you look at what I did in terms of cutting off or banning China from coming in. I got Americans who are also banning China. Nice and easy. Just relax. Lady, that's the president of the United States you're talking down to. He was actually elected, unlike you. I swear, these people act like they're engaged in a Twitter battle. All she can think of is scoring political points and all the likes she's going to get when she posts this clip on Twitter. Yes, Trump only banned Chinese foreign nationals and not American citizens. This is yet another mind-numbing example of how the media will just take the opposite position of whatever Trump does. Can you even begin to imagine the national uproar from the media if Trump banned American citizens from coming home? Every single network would be running stop stories about how mean old racist Trump wasn't allowing American citizens to come home because they were of Asian descent and not white or some other nonsense.  Don't believe me? Just look at how the media reacted when Trump banned a cruise liner filled with American citizens from docking in the US. The president's desire to artificially keep the numbers low by keeping Americans who are off the coast out of the United States, is that desire impacting health decisions to help save these Americans who have coronavirus or who could possibly have it? And you don't want to get into politics, but can you assure the American people that decisions are not being made just because the president wants to keep the numbers low? They actually accuse him of keeping people from coming back to the country to reduce the number of people infected. I'm telling you, these people are completely out of their minds. The point is, Trump has been taking action since January and the media has criticized it every step of the way. And now they act like he never took any actions at all. We cut it off. People were amazed. These gentlemen, everybody was amazed that I did it. We had 21 people in a room. Everybody was against it. But me, Dr. Fauci said, had I not done that, perhaps tens of thousands and maybe much more than that, people would have died. I was very early, very, very early. And we just saw you saw Brett Baer making a statement. They had a debate well into February. And not even mentioned, it wasn't even mentioned, the Democrats. We were very early. Oh, I'm the president. And you know what I just did? So quickly. And you know what I just... And by the way, when you issued the ban, the virus was already here. Okay. And you know how many people when I issued the ban? How many cases of virus were in the United States when I issued the ban? Do you know the number? There was... No, no. How many cases? Remember, I said one person. How many cases were here when I issued the ban? Did you know... No, no, no. You have to do your research. How many... I did my research. On the 23rd of March, you said you knew this was going to be a Can I tell you what? I did know it. I did know it. All I have to do is look. Anybody knew it. Just... Are you ready? How many cases were in the United States when I did my ban? How many people had died in the United States? So do you acknowledge that you didn't think you were a friend? Keep your voice down, please. Keep your voice down. Did you not... How many... How many cases were in the United States? I did a ban where I'm closing up the entire country. How many people died? How many people died in the United States? And yet, I closed up the country and I believe there were no deaths, zero deaths at the time I closed up the country. Nobody was there. And you should say thank you very much for good judgment. Okay, the virus was already here. Your point? We don't really know when it got here thanks to the lives from China and the World Health Organization. How in the world is that Trump's fault? It's not as if Trump could have stopped the virus from entering the country when every country in the world is currently infected. Look, these are fake journalists and they're just trying to score political points to better Democrats' chances in November. That's all for this episode. Please like, share, and subscribe.

April 16th was a special day for everyone at Tactical Base Gamberi. For the train advice assist commandees service members, it was an inspirational opportunity to meet returning American heroes. For one Marine and four soldiers, it was a chance to visit service members in Afghanistan and this time leave on their own terms. This trip has been very surreal so far, like it's already been said, I definitely did not think I was coming back but now that I'm here, I'm extremely glad to be here so I'm trying to take it all in and process it. Operation Proper Exit is an initiative through Faraday's Choup's First Foundation that continues to return recovered service members to theater and to countries from which they previously received medical evacuations. During the meet and greet event, the returning heroes were able to rekindle their camaraderie with fellow service members and share stories about their lives and recovery. It was just great support from my family, from my friends, from work and then just getting out there being as active as I could and that's what helped me get back to what I'm doing. Right now I'm actually back in uniform as a double amputee highway patrolman in Arizona so you can come through to say hi and I'll write you a warning and get you back on your way. I don't think there's one of us up here that healed on their own, got ourselves off the battlefield on their own. It's something that you rely on other people all the time to not only sometimes check on you but also to be able to reach out to them. I drive, I shoot, I do most things now on my own. I'd like to know that we've had some people get injured here and what we can do when we get back to help them with their recovery. It's important that you keep them in your mind just like Leroy was saying. Invite them over when you guys are hanging out, get them to the company, give them things to do or just come by and hang out when you guys are refitting. I didn't take no for an answer. I didn't take anybody telling me that I couldn't do anything. Too hard or anything like that, I was going to make my destiny.


So, you know, most marketers these days are talking about their digital journey, how are they using digital to promote their products and their media mix has changed over the years. How is it for the Azure? Likewise, we are actually, we were very early adopters onto this journey because it gave us the ability to speak to consumers in a very targeted manner for one. For the second, I think digital and technology is going to become an omnipresent part of our lives. We're already seeing, we're probably on to a whole new wave of transformation that's going to give us the next curve really post COVID and digital access. So I think it's exciting. It's also going to be a huge learning journey to your point on Diageo and how important it is. Because of the fact that we are responsible about the way we communicate, we are actually not present on a lot of mainstream media. So therefore, we are very clear about how we communicate and you know, our promotion plans on digital as well. That being said, there is no doubt that content is today driving the way consumers are engaging with brands and culture, right? It's the reverse. Earlier, brands spoke, consumers listened and that was the way they engaged. It's now turning to a place where content is really where they see brands, they see culture and then they find ways to engage deeper. It gives us two or three big opportunities. One is communities. Communities are stronger than ever. So we want to engage with communities meaningfully. And I think our brands with purpose deliver that. The second is it gives us the ability to be more focused and targeted for different brands and propositions and that for us is always going to be a good opportunity. For example, if I want to reach out through, let's say and look for options to build the most fantastic experience at my wedding, I know where to go and access it. And that gives me a responsible way to access information about the category. And the third thing which digitally gives you is also it gives you the ability to have meaningful conversations because you can understand who your consumers are better, what are their needs, what is the information they're looking for. So you can build an ecosystem around it. On those three pillars, the transformation, the technology that will be used, whether it is AI, whether it's generative AI, whether it's going to be, you know, using all kinds of new age tools to make it come alive. I mean, that's the question, isn't it? And that's what we're all going to be looking to. So it's going to be a fascinating next couple of years.
