I've been doing a bit of entry, and I always take the liberty to tell one of the President's favorite stories. And I always give you the accolade, Mr. President. Let's see if you remember it, or if I tell it the same way. The President wants to tell the story about Paul by the name of Murphy. It was during World War II. And Murphy, for some reason or other, the law of the English didn't have any use whatsoever. And he was doing a little work for the Germans. The Germans wanted to get to him so he could make an entry into the North Sea about some movement that was out there. So they sent a plane parachute. The parachute lands over a place somewhere. He's going down the street. When he sees Murphy, and they know he's the right Murphy, he used to say, the moonless full, the stars are bright, and the night is beautiful. So he landed, and he's going along the street, and the one came following a horse and wagon. He said, hello there. He said, you'll be a stranger, don't you? He says, yes, I am. He says, who you been looking for? He says, I'm looking for a follow by the name of Murphy. Oh, he says, you're looking for a follow by the name of Murphy. I hear him. He says, in this town, he says, Murphy the harness maker, Murphy the horseshoe, Murphy the butcher, Murphy the baggy. He says, I'm Murphy, he says, the farmer. He says, you want Murphy the farmer? He says, yes, he says, the moon is full, the stars are bright, and the night is beautiful. Oh, he says, you're looking for Murphy the spy, listen. I'm happy to have you on me by being here. This is the room where I had, for so many years, while I was speaking, we all were around the spot, and I'm delighted that you're carrying on the tradition. Welcome, PSI, and the major trip to all of us who are here today. Thank you, Mr. President, for being in your company on this day. Unless someone is swollen up with a speech, that includes the formal festivities. We appreciate the presence of the press. Thank you for having me on this day. Happy St. Patrick's Day to all of you. Thank you. Thank you.

It's available in all distributions that are shipping a recent version of LVM2 and device maffers, so Fedora, REL7, there is an update on the way for REL6, and most other distributions that keep fairly close to upstream. So, just to kind of set the theme for today's talk and provide some background, the project I want to talk about today is DM stats or device maffers statistics. This is something that exists in two components, a kernel piece that has been around for a couple of years, and the new user space support which I'll be talking about today. Obviously IO statistics are not a new thing, they've been around for many years, really coming together to form the sort of statistics we see today in the 1980s. So obviously this is something that needs kernel support, the device maffer case is no different here, so the basic IO stats that we have on Linux, the block layer was modified to keep track of certain events. So when an IO is submitted or when it completes, an event counter is incremented, and you'll see that most of the performance metrics use this very simple counter-based model. So, as events occur, the counter is incremented, and we can then look at the counter value, or more importantly, how it's changed over a particular period of time to determine the level of activity for different events going on in the system. So, the kernel side, as most things in the kernel, it likes to keep things simple, and the counters are all implemented as plain integer values. Now clearly when we come to look at this as human beings, or to carry out additional processing and calculation with the data, that may not be the most convenient form to work in. We may want rates expressed in terms of human readable quantities like megabytes or gigabytes, and to have those rates expressed in familiar units of time per second per minute or whatever is convenient. So we need the user space tooling to provide this quantisation to time, rate conversion, and also possibly to do higher level tasks, things like aggregation and sorting. If you used some of the more advanced options for IO staff that allow user group devices together, you may be familiar with the kind of ideas I'm talking about here. So, to look at Linux in a little bit more detail and what we have today, or what we have prior to the introduction of DM staffs. The current IO statistics framework has been present since roughly late 2.4 or early 2.5. There are some minor differences between the two, but for today's purposes 2.4 is kind of historical anyway. So, what we have now is a set of 11 event characters. These are documented in the IOStats.txt file in the kernel sources or in the package documentation that you'll find on your system. And these track quantities like the number of reads completed, the number of writes completed, and the number of Q merges where we see that two IOs are adjacent and stick them together to build a larger IO to send out to the hardware. And these low level raw kinds of values are then consumed by user space tools, historically primarily the SysStat package. That includes things like IOStats, as well as SAR, the system activity reporter, and its data collector component. Today these tools look a little old-fashioned in some ways. They've been around in more or less the current form. There's over 20 or 30 years if you look back to tools that were available on commercial Unix platforms in the 1980s. They're generally very similar. Today there are also more modern alternatives to these that Mike Sugeau uses better. PCP is a project started by SGI. It's short for the performance co-pilot and it's a fairly large set of tools for everything from data gathering, pulling data into the system, recording and archiving, and then presenting or transmitting that data for further analysis and use. PCP is a large topic, so I won't be going into it any more in today's talk. There are some good talks on YouTube and it also tends to come up at conferences largely because it's a relatively new tool that people, at least in the Linux world, are not so familiar with. There are also higher-level management tools, things like the OpenLMI suite, which supports the EMTF SIM data model. These today can also read out the statistics from a Linux system and provide them for further processing and use. So this is the state that we have today and it's been a good model. It's served us well for a number of years, but it does have some limitations. In particular, there is just one counter set per device. This is regardless of how large the device is or how it's composed. If you've ever used Linux MD or LVM on a system with more than one physical disk, you're familiar with the idea that a single block device may be composed of multiple component devices. Perhaps it's a RAID array, so we're distributing data and possibly parity information within that. Or it may simply be a composite device, for example a logical volume that has been extended several times, so that it has disjoint data regions, possibly spanning multiple disks. In these sorts of situations, it may be useful to have a little bit more insight into particular areas of the disk. Without that, we're just getting very coarse averages over what may be a very large physical device. These counters today are also shared by all users. There's a simple technique used that allows us to effectively share this resource among multiple users without interference. That is just that the counters never reset, they just constantly increase. This means that anyone using the counters needs to maintain two copies of the data. We need to maintain the last thing that we saw and the current snapshot. We then take the difference between these two and that gives us the observations for the current interval. It's a relatively small overhead, but it is an overhead and it does complicate code that needs to read and manage these values in user space. There's a relatively fixed set of performance counters here as well. This is partly down to historical reasons. If you remember the introduction in 2.4 and the later 2.5 changes, you'll know that they're in different places. The reason for this is that once we introduce a file in PROC, and in the case of IO stats, this is slash PROC slash disk stats, that becomes part of the ABI, part of the interface with user space. That means that we can't freely make changes to that to add additional fields. We're somewhat more free in the device map of world here in that we use careful versioning of both the interaction with the curveball and the library in user space, which means that we have a much better path to introduce new additions or changes in a controlled map without breaking older systems. Another indication of the classical disk stats is that they use the kernel jiffy counter. If you're familiar with the kernel's timekeeping, you'll know that we have multiple different sources of timing information now. The jiffy counter is a very coarse millisecond resolution, or I should say roughly millisecond resolution counter, that ticks up traditionally every time the timer tick went off. Today you may not have a regular timer tick, but in principle it's just the same. There are two real problems here. Firstly, we have a limited resolution, we can't get better than millisecond accuracy, or precision I should say, and also there's an accuracy problem. Depending on what's happening on the system, and especially in virtualised environments, the jiffy clock may drift. So this time a millisecond may be a little bit too long, next time it might be a little bit too short. Depending on what you're doing with the data, this kind of variation and jitter may be problematic. The last major problem is very little insight into the latency that your IO is experiencing. We do have some averages produced, so the average service time and the average time that an IO waits before being issued. But these are just coarse averages. If we're seeing very high rates of IO, I remember we have devices today that are capable of a million or more IOs per second, this single average value gives us very little insight about how the latencies are actually distributed. And often in today's performance analysis, it's that distribution, at least some overall rough shape that we're mainly interested in. So this has been the sort of state of the IO statistics support in Linux for some time, and as I said it has largely served as well. We should examine why today this is becoming a problem, or why we would like to have some more capabilities to get better insight into what's going on today. A major part of the reason is that the storage stacks have changed. To borrow a phrase, it's not your father's storage anymore. So today we have things like software defined storage. If you've used things like SEP or Gloucester, you're familiar with the idea here. Rather than building large proprietary hardware disk arrays and presenting them over private channels or some other standard protocol, we build much cheaper arrays of commodity hardware with locally attached storage, and we then use software and networking to make that storage available to the client systems. We also today see much more heavily tiered storage architectures. One of the first ideas of tiered storage is a sort of layered cache where we have a hierarchical storage model, and data is automatically moved between tiers depending on its usage patterns. So we may at the front end have in-memory caches moving through fast local storage like SSD or Flash made available over the PCI bus, and eventually we may arrive on something like a tape silo at the slowest, largest end of the hierarchy. Where these tiers are implemented in Linux, we may want to have better visibility into the path of an IO as it tracks down through those tiers and layers. Obviously I work on device mapper, and two of the major additions in device mapper over the last few years have been the addition of caching and thin provisioning targets. The thin provisioning target also is responsible for the much better performance we now have with device mapper snapshots. Again, these involve breaking up storage up and assigning certain data to fast low latency high throughput storage, while other data is moved out to slower back end storage. With thin provisioning, we may have volumes that are initially only partially provisioned, and then become fully provisioned or more provisioned as IO is sent down to different regions of the device. This is somewhat related to the next point. In fact, the example I have here, which is REV, predates the thin provisioning capabilities in device mapper, and it uses a different mechanism for multi-tenancy storage. This one's an interesting use case for device mapper statistics, because the way that REV operates, it takes a single LV, slices that up into pieces, and each piece may be assigned to a different virtual machine. So, we do have this situation where we have one block device containing a number of logical disk devices that belong to different virtual machines. Again, this is somewhat related to the container of virtualisation world, where we may have many images all packed onto a single device. So, this leads us on to what we might wish to monitor and observe on these devices. The first point is the one that the old IO stats and disk stats mechanism is incapable of. It's not able to perform monitoring on subregions of devices. We might want to use this to identify hotspots, region of the disk, which receives a large volume of IO, and that may be becoming a bottleneck. If we were in some sort of an environment with cache devices available, that's the sort of region that we might consider caching in order to give it a performance boost or to remove a bottleneck. We may also want to carry out object discrimination. So, one block device, say if it's got a file system or a database stored on it, is going to contain many different objects. If the file system or database can tell us where those objects are, then we can provide statistics specifically for those regions of the disk that are used by the object. As I mentioned earlier, latency characterisation is another important area. One way to make this available is to track some kind of a histogram. A histogram shows us directly the distribution of a set of values by dividing the value space up into buckets and then accounting each individual IO into whichever bucket it fits. We build up an overall picture of how the latency is distributed among IOs. We may also want to grant different users on the machine access to the statistics facility in a way that doesn't interfere with other users. As we said, the old IO stats and disk stats uses this simple trick of global non-resetting counters, but when we're providing some of these additional mechanisms like latency histograms, we need something a little bit more sophisticated for that. We also want to be able to monitor and potentially respond to the overheads that our statistics collection is imposing, either in memory, CPU or other terms. Since the device map of statistics provides much greater flexibility and options, it does naturally impose a higher overhead. We'll take a look at how we can track that in a moment. Press on then to a brief discussion of the VM stats tool. As I said, this is available now in most recent distributions. The kernel side of things has been available since 2013. It introduced the general VM stats interface, which uses the device map and message facility. It allows us to set up arbitrary regions of devices for statistics tracking, and we can also divide those regions up into chunks. This was updated in 2015 to add two important new features. These are higher precision nanosecond resolution counters, as well as user-defined latency histograms. What's available now in current device map packages consists of two components, a user space library that application programmers can use to directly access the stats data, and also the VM stats command, which allows us to interact with the facility from the terminal. The command allows us to create, delete and monitor regions, as well as to print the current values in the array converted form as provided by the library. The actual command interface, if you've ever used the VM setup program, it's very similar. We have the VM stats command followed by any options or switches, and then a sub-command to indicate what we want to do, create, delete, and so on. The reporting functions of VM stats use the existing device map and LVM reporting framework. Again, if you've used that to set the fields that you want to use, or any sorting or selection criteria, that's also available for the statistics. There's a manual page with examples and full usage information in the VM stats page. One of the main ideas in VM stats is, and I briefly mentioned this on the last slide, this notion of regions and areas. A region is just a range of sectors that we're tracking statistics for, and we can break that down further into areas. What we mean by an area is this portion of the disk will have its own independent set of characters, so we can tell whether there's a lot of IO happening in one area, or in the adjacent or any other area. You can create an unlimited number of regions of any size that you wish. Obviously, these do impose a memory overhead, and you'll be limited by the amount of physical memory available on your machine. There's also a little safety check in the kernel that we don't allow the statistics data to exceed more than 25% of available RAM. To create a region, we use enough to create a command. We can control the number of areas or the size of the areas that we create. One thing to note here, you do have to set all the options you want when you first create a region. If you don't and you want to change them later on, it's not a problem, just delete the region and then recreate it. So, if I just switch over to... Okay, I'm getting a message you may have lost today, but I hope not, if not, hopefully you can read my lips. So, the reporting, as we saw, we can specify count. You can also specify an interval. If you specify either one, it will pause the reports to repeat. Otherwise, if we just run the report, you'll get a single snapshot of the current values. Just very quickly take a look at latency histograms. These are one of the most requested features in BM stats. It took a little bit of time to get the kernel side of the support correctly worked out and merged, but this is now available in the current device mapper and LVM2 releases. To specify a histogram, we give the bands or the bin boundaries. So, we've got an example here with 10, 20 and 30 milliseconds. What that is doing is creating four buckets in our histogram, one from 0 to 10, one from 10 to 20, another from 20 to 30, and the final one, which is for everything 30 and above. These will then report either as a relative or absolute count when we use the histogram option to the reporting tools. If I just switch back to a terminal for a moment, allowing you to carry on and create new regions with new definitions. In future, we've got a number of feature requests being worked on at the moment to add grouping and aggregation so that you can more flexibly combine different statistics. Direct integration with the LVM tools and an automated tool to detect hotspots, and hopefully also in the next batch of updates will be a sort of real-time top style display for the statistics information. So, I'm sorry, I've run on with my talking as usual, so I think we've got about 30 seconds maybe for questions. Do feel free to pass those over. They'll be relayed to me via IRC and my fearless video assistant Mark Clizir in our Farnborough office. So please go ahead if there are any questions. They've lost sound again. They're searching to voice them and collect questions. Should I stop and start? They've not said to stop and start. I don't honestly know what is up with audio. I'm recording the good, a good level here. It may have been that and, but I'm not sure. I just think everyone's walked out by now so there won't be many questions. Yeah, do bear in mind that's a little hard. I know. I wasn't going to start picking my nose. I'm picking a little wipe, but it's fair. Bear it up. I'm not sure if he wants to switch to optical. There is a boogie in the link that Alistair sent out earlier but I can't connect to it while I'm sitting there with my arms up, should I? I kind of feel like switching the video off. I'm going to switch over to the other camera.


John Haman a fan cred reporting that the Diamondbacks have traded Paul Goldschmidt to the st. Louis Cardinals So that's a good get for the Cardinals There are a lot of teams That are going for it the Cardinals have not made the plows the last couple of years So you got the Cardinals in the central you got the Cubs in the central And you know you make it interesting now, you know all the more reason unless you as a met fan You just wanted to take a knee on 2018 all the more reason to make the deal that you made because the Nationals got better The Phillies likely are gonna get better They're gonna get one if not both of Harper and Machado if you listen to some people reporting Cardinals just got better the Brewers of the the champions of that division the Cubs are an excellent team Yeah, I mean you want to make the playoffs Michael the wild card may not be available to you That's right. Absolutely because you got the West to what with the good teams, you know Listen, I don't think the Rockies necessarily are going anywhere the Dodgers are the defending National League champions, right? So that's two teams right there Right the Diamondbacks are gone I still think the Giants are going through a rebuild and so are the Padres So if you got the if you got the Dodgers winning the West the Rockies are in contention for the wild card You've got the Braves, right? Let's not forget the Braves won that division last year, right? The Phillies can get better the Nationals are gonna lose Harper, but they added to their rotation Okay, and then you look at the central division Brewers went to the playoffs last year Cubs went to the playoffs last year The Cardinals just got one of the best first baseman in baseball. So if you want to be competitive There's a lot of the National League has got a lot of teams that can go to the playoffs now


Synthetic marijuana has now made its way into Williamson. Tuesday the Williamson Police Department responded to five calls where users overdosed on the drug. Sgt. John Hall Jr. with the Williamson Police Department says this has become a problem to the area and even more so with the police department. It's not a new drug but it's new to this area called Synthetic weed. It started arriving in our area about three or four months ago. We've had a few calls but here lately it's been more everyday thing now. It's becoming a real problem for the EMS and the local law enforcement to respond to certain scenes out there in the field. Sgt. Hall says users are mixing the drug with anything they can find which is initially what's causing the overdose. It's a synthetic weed, they're mixing it with Raid, Roach killer, just anything they can mix with it, they'll mix with it and smoke it. Sgt. John Hall Jr. says the Williamson Police Department has a drug drop-off box where you can take prescription drugs and drop them off anonymously. We do have a drug drop-off box in our police station. We're working with the STOP Coalition and if you have expired medication or you've got medication where someone has passed away and you don't want to just flush it, you can bring it to our office and drop it off and we do have people come around once a month and collect the medicine out of the box. The five who overdose Tuesday were transported to Williamson Memorial Hospital and the police department will continuously check in and follow up with them. The Williamson Police Department encourages everyone to call the police department and leave an anonymous tip if you know someone using synthetic marijuana. Reporting for EKB Evening News at 6, I'm Shelby Steele.


So, hi everyone, I am Ishwar Kumar, final year resident, Divya Patil Hospital, Kolhapur. And I would like to thank IRIA for giving me this opportunity to present at 20th MRA conference. And I would like to thank my mentors, Dr. Nitin Badwani sir, who is a professor at HOD and Mahesh sir, who is senior resident for great teachers and who are my guides for this paper making. So my topic is Fecomatosis and I will be presenting some typical, atypical, common and not so common cases which presented to our department. So Fecomatosis are neurocatenase syndromes, are heterogeneous group of disorders and have variable inheritance pattern and as of now more than 30 entities are included. So we will be discussing some of the uncommon associations and the typical findings of most common neurocatenase syndromes through some cases. And also we will be discussing a rare case of incontinentia pigmenti. So all these cases are done on 3,000 MRA machine in our department. And the most common neurocatenase syndromes described in literature are tuberosulatosis NF1 and NF2. So if we consider NF1, the plexiform neurofibromas and bilateral optic gliomas are almost pathognomic for the diagnosis of NF1. And similarly, bilateral acoustic schwannomas are pathognomic for NF2 and are cortical tuber subepandemol hematomas, cutaneous angiofibromas and segas for tuberosulatosis. And there are several rare Fecomatosis with CNS manifestations like incontinentia pigmenti which require exclusively clinical or histological diagnosis. So to start with cases, this is the first case 20-year-old female patient presented with long-term back pain, upper and lower limb pain. So this is a typical but not so common case of NF1 with extensive subcutaneous and deep plexiform neurofibromas with symmetrical whole body involvement, which is pathognomic for NF1. So these are transverse images and here we are seeing the lobilated T2 hyperintense lesion along the supraorbital nerve and inside the lesion we are seeing areas of hypotenesity. So these are plexiform neurofibromas along supraorbital nerve and also we are seeing diffusely involved musculoskeletal planes at the level of skull base with neurofibromas. This is the coronal image we are seeing plexiform neurofibromas along the brachial plexus and also in the subcutaneous plane of the neck and also plexiform neurofibromas involving the lumbosacral plexus and also in the abdominal wall and also the upper limbs. And this is another case, this is a long-year-old boy with seizures, vomiting, headache, burying of his young clinically, he had axillary KFLA spots. So this is an uncommon diffusely infiltrative brainstem astrocytoma causing abstract to heterocephalitis and a typical bilateral staphelomas in a patient with axillary KFLA spots and neurofibromas type 1. And in this image we are seeing, these are flare images, we are seeing dilated ventricles with periventricular linear hyperintense signal, what we call it as periventricular interstitial edema or CSFC page and here we are seeing hyperintense signal within the telamy and the telamy are swollen as well. In the posterior part of the cerebral epiaduct of the midbrain we are seeing hyperintense signal on flare images and this is flare image at the level of pons, posterior pons is involved and also the middle cerebellar peduncle is involved bilaterally, more on the left side and the cerebellar white matter is also involved. The left inferior cerebellar peduncle is involved and also the dermis is involved and superior cerebellar peduncle and the cerebellum is showing facilitated diffusion on ADC map so similar restriction characteristics are seen even on the other legions as well. So here in this image, this is T2-way-to-image, we are seeing posterior bulging of the globe off-center to the optic disc, so this is stapheloma which are bilateral and this is in a typical association with only few reported cases with NF1 and the tachyl plate which is biconvex and swollen which is causing obstruction to the epiaduct with resultant obstructive heterocephalus and we are seeing the enlarged lateral ventricle and also dilated third ventricle with normal fourth ventricle. So this is in diffusely infiltrative brainstem astrocytoma which is an uncommon association of NF1. This is another case, 27-year-old male patient presented with imbalance, slur speech, progressive hearing loss, facial palsy, mouth deviation to the left side and giddiness. So this is a case of bilateral schwannomas with a typical enhancement and infiltrative characteristics in a young patient with NF2. So in this image, T2-way-to-image which is demonstrating predominately hyperintensilations in the bilateral CP angles at the level of MCP without distinct margins. So the lesion on the right side is more indistinct and the lesion on the left side is little bit distinct. We can make out the margins of this lesion better than the margins of this lesion. At a more higher level, again we are seeing mass effect of this lesion which is on the left side, mass effect on pons. This is an ADC map which is showing no restriction to the right-sided lesion, equivocal peripheral areas of low ADC values to the left-sided lesion. Again drive sequence at the level of pons. This right-sided lesion is more infiltrative and the left-sided lesion is more distinct and the margins are little bit clear than the right-sided lesion and also we can see the extension of this lesion into the IAC here we are seeing the hypotenuse extension into the IAC and also the extension into the IAC on the right side as well and this lesion in the craniocaudal plane or the coronal plane is centered at the pontometallary junction. So post-contrast images on T1, pre-contrast image here we are seeing laterally, so to high-point tense lesions on the left side a little bit of hemorrhagic area, post-contrast image on the right lesion which is not showing enhancement with only a enhancing foci in the center of the lesion and also the IAC component is not showing any enhancement counter to that on the left side the lesion is showing peripheral areas of enhancement and also the component of in the IAC is enhancing so this is an atypical case of NF2, so this is a 30-year-old female patient presented with seizures, so typical but subtle case of tuberous sclerosis. Here we are seeing on flare images and T2-V2D images, high-point tense triangular shaped signal in the cortex and the subcortical area of the right parietal lobe and this is suggestive, this can be suggestive of a cortical tuber or it can be a focal cortical dysplasia unless we have an associated finding of tuberous sclerosis we cannot for sure call this as cortical tuber because it is isolated and and also in this case if we see carefully we are seeing these subparmenomal hematomas and together now these two are diagnostic of tuberous sclerosis. If we miss this subtle subparmenomal hematomas we cannot make the diagnosis of tuberous sclerosis in this case. So this is another case to a rolled shale presented with seizures and this is a typical and obvious case of tuberous sclerosis and this is T2-V2D coronal image, multiple cortical and subcortical areas of hyperintensities, cortical tubers and linear hyperintense radiating bands. Here we are seeing the radiating bands from periventricular to subcortical white matter and the transverse T2-V2D image showing the subparmenomal nodules and these nodules are hyperintense on T2 which is owing to their calcifications and which is evident on ADC map as well. ADC is a sherry based map and hyperintensity in the ADC can also be due to calcification other than restriction. So another case 50 year old patient presented with progressive headache on clinical examination patient had nasolabial angiofibromas. So this is in a typical case of tuberous sclerosis in a patient with adenoma, sebaceous and an isolated brain finding of SEGA. So transverse image, coronal image, T2-V2D images and we are seeing this heterogeneous intraventricular mass which is centered in the left lateral ventricle which is abutting the septum pellucidum and also the appendema. So this lesion is extending directly into the left forearm of Munro and compressing the outlet of right forearm of Munro which is resulting in obstructive heterocephalus and that is also this periventricular interstitial edema more on the frontal side. In this coronal image we are seeing the third ventricle which is collapsed and the dilated temporal horns of the lateral ventricle. In the GRE image we are seeing this normal appendimal vein and the lesion does not show any blooming and on T1 weighted pre-contrast image. The lesion is iso-to-hypoimptons which demonstrated intense almost homogenous enhancement on Gerlindem enhanced post-contrast T1 based image and maybe a little bit of non-enhancing areas otherwise it is homogeneously enhancing. And as we know the clinical history so the diagnosis of tuberous sclerosis is made and this is a SEGA sub appendimal gene cell astroceatoma. So if you don't know the clinical finding of adenoma sebaceous for this patient the diagnosis would have been a centerneroceatoma than a SEGA. So this is another case this is a rare case of incontinence of pigment with vasculitis associated brain infarction in a full-term neonate. This is a three-day old full-term female baby presented with multiple erythematous papules and plaques on bilateral upper limbs, lower limbs and axilla. The baby white was 3 kg at birth, active in ephembrale. She had an episode of generalized tonic-clonic seizures and echocardiography was reported as normal. So here we are seeing Q2 weighted transverse image, heterogeneous signal in the bilateral corona radiata and posterior limb of the internal capsule and also there are halter signal densities in the subcortical white matter as well. So this is an TWI image and ADC maps and here we are seeing multiple foci of diffusion restriction which are diffusely involving the bilateral cerebral hemispheres which is more prominent on the right side and these does not follow any vascular territory and the corpus callosum is also involved. The cerebellum is also involved and also there is complete involvement of the right thalamus and focal areas of involvement of the left thalamus. And here we images areas of blooming involving bilateral cerebral hemispheres and also in the right cerebellar hemisphere and all these findings together find favor CNS manifestation of vasculitis associated hemorrhagic infarct in a newborn with incontinence apigmenti. And concluding my paper the MRM plays an important role leading in the diagnosis or diagnosing this heterogeneous group of neurogradient disorders especially with advent of higher thalamus magnets and newer sequences. So if we see in the case of C3 although the site bilaterality and spread strongly suggested chifanomas, infiltrative nature and a typical enhancement pattern raise diagnostic challenge. In C4 differentiating the isolated cortical tubal from FCD would have been difficult if not for the subtle subabendamel nodules and in C5 where there is an isolated brain finding of SEGA the diagnosis of central neurocytoma may have been favored if the patient had not been clinically examined for nasolabial and G5 bromas. In the case of C7 multiple random hemorrhagic infarcts in brain favored vasculitis as a cause of encephalitis. In several previous studies the histologic and neuro radiologic observations have speculated that vasculatiology causing ischemia or an abnormal protein triggering and encephalitic process may be responsible for neurologic complications of incontinence apigmenti and in C2 infiltrative astrocytoma, bilateral cephaloma surround common associations of NF1. So the radiology should be aware of clinical future, satirical appearances and subtle findings to be able to make accurate diagnosis. So these are my references and thank you very much for your patience.


and think deep questions no I was like men's friendships are weird that's basically what I thought no I didn't get a lot of the profound out of it because to be honest I don't normally like this type of movie but for some reason Macdonna always manages to do I like my movies things to be wrapped up and Macdonna never wraps stuff up he leaves everything he just kind of pulls a thread and then he leaves the mall hanging there and he that can be frustrating and it's not done the certain way a lot of times for in a lot of times when other people have done stuff but he and his brother both do it in such a way as in you actually still walk away satisfied even though you kind of want to go back to the sequel you know the way you're sort of want to go oh what happened you know they leave you with oh Jesus I wonder what happened next and you kind of can fill in the gaps you know what I mean it's very it won't be for everyone like if you go to IMDB and look at the reviews there and you go down through the reviews this is exactly what you'll see you'll see 10 out of 10 9 out of 10 10 out of 10 all the way down the page then at the bottom of the page 1 out of 10 yeah but that's the one who wanted a certain ending yeah that's exactly what they said this is depressing and it doesn't end I had loads of questions when it was over rubbish that's and that's the taste of 1 out of 20 people but you see I would just forgot I think that's like someone who goes who is anti-violence or something right and then goes and watches a very violent violent movie I know I mean it's gonna go well I don't like it's never going to be his movies it's never going to be a good thing because one because I want to reiterate his movies himself and his brother's movies if you've seen any of them they do not end in the sense of it isn't like that all of a sudden there's the bad guy lying on the ground not gonna babysit you to make you feel bad there's a bad guy lying on the ground dead and then there's the you know the hero suddenly takes the woman into his arms job done yeah these are what they do with these is like it's just like as if they kind of take a snapshot of a moment this is set back in 1923 so it's also has kind of a an old-fashioned need kind of a feel to it as well instead of being up to date you know what I mean there's no such thing as picking up a phone or there's not you know all that kind of stuff is and it's like the way I live and it's based it is based it is based in Ireland it's based it's it's based on the an imaginary because we know you sometimes don't like how Ireland's presented but it does it feel authentic yeah it does well it's it again this is the thing answering questions I know it just does yeah no it does but it does have it does have a small feel because it's said I don't know I think so it's a person but it does have a small bit of you know a baghara kind of a thing about it because it's set in 1923 but the thing about Macdonald's is you actually again another thing that would annoy me in other movies you know what I mean and even the fact that you know the accents are very varied even though they all supposedly never left this island you know it's it never left the island and that kind a lot of that kind of stuff would normally be like oh god that gets on me now but it's the way that he kind of unfolds a story that you're never really sure what direction is going to go in you're never sure or whatever so let's list off some of the films then from the Mcdonald brothers I mean what a catalog of films they have oh yeah it's unbelievable brilliant films The Guard is great that's the brother he's the one with the Beast is also his brother Calvary Calvary is also excellent yeah that's the in Bruges in Bruges is his is Martin Mcdonald Seven Psychopaths Seven Psychopaths is his this guy he also did the if for anybody that likes plays Martin Mcdonalds also wrote The Beauty Queen of Lenin The Cripple of Innish Man and there's the thing oh my god you should total The Cripple of Innish Man is amazing and this is again dark you walk out of it going holy lord some critics said this is this this you could easily adapt this for the stage this is very theater-y in the sense that oh are you totally would make an awesome play of it yeah totally because you get caught I mean it's really although there is a large enough cast it's really these two men and it's just that drive and it's such a simple but profound idea you know I just I just don't want to be your friend anymore he said looking across at Greg I don't want to be your friend anymore and then you're like where because it's like even the characters in it are like it starts off in the beginning and they're like I don't be your friend anymore and even like the guy who's supposed to be the not 100% their character which are always in these things it's like he turns around and he goes um what is he 12 you know like how do you grown men that guy who everyone on that looks down at and you know he's a bit crass and a bit uncultured on more than one occasion he says some of the most profound things in the movie I know so but he's the he's the the one on the island that they looked down on that's the he's it and he's an amazing there's some amazing actors in it that's Barry was killed yes he's he was in the Eternals you know he's he's really good he's really and the lady with the sister Kerry oh I can't think of her last name now I didn't write it down Katona she's really really she's really really good why do we chat to him I don't know why do we talk to him I have to do something I don't watch any I don't get special trips to the cinema I mean what am I supposed to do I have to try and get involved in the conversation I know but you have to I'm telling you I think people my main thing is you definitely need to go and see it even if you're something like me that normally likes things tied up in a bow if you haven't seen a Mark McDonough movie you should definitely and it sounds like a real alternative to the big big step you know the big explosion oh it is oh yeah you know what I'm all about it's actually quite small in that sense but you don't feel short-changed yeah that's what I mean it's literally this tiny island they're walking from one end of the island to the other so you know it was shot in the iron island so it is stunning beautiful absolutely beautifully shot I mean at every turn it's not just the landscape which undoubtedly is beautiful but it's the way he shoots the sun sets the way he shoots the meadows the clearly talent there's a couple of drone shots I kept thinking about it but they are beautiful as long as they're in contact over the field yeah no it is well it just it kind of shows the smallness of it really because like in Konamari you could see your fields that look like from the side the size of this shed big story but you get a perspective of how small it is yeah you know with the little stone walls some of the details as well this is not anyway spoilery but again they talk about things that are happening this is 1923 they talk about what's happening on the mainland and they can hear explosions and gunshots and they talk they talk about that if it's not central to the storyline because obviously you're very you don't want to spoil it no why base it in the 20s why not no well I think it it had to be based back so I don't know why he picked the 20s because I'm not profound enough I miss all those bits but you had to set it really back because otherwise you wouldn't be in a situation where these people aren't going on enough this like these are you know what I mean they've no other kind of like literally what this is is that these people live on this and they've lived their their whole lives these two men you get the impression their whole lives at two o'clock every day one of them calls to the other and they go to the pub I would also say and I think that's the sort of a feeling I think so but leaning into the why it's so profound and why I took a lot of it I think that it's happening while the civil war is happening in Ireland is a key to understanding it is the fact that it's brother against brother does it if that's it this is this male relationship it's a dynamic time I totally see that now that you say but I totally didn't see that yesterday they were standing they were like oh what are they even fighting about over there in the civil war I mean like there's it's like it's a microcosm of the civil war that's how I took it you that's a hundred percent yeah I did not see that when I did that I sat in my kitchen staring out the rain was coming down the window and I was thinking you were being profound deep deep look it it's an interesting one and like I know I was joking there about relationships between men but it actually is an interesting thing and because and even I was watching welcome to Wrexham and I don't know if people have watched it it's on Disney and a lot of people might have avoided because it's about soccer which would no interest to me whatsoever but welcome to Kent Lasso is your favorite show I know but it's not really about soccer that's enough I barely have to watch two minutes of soccer in that whole thing there's a bit more soccer in this but the it's you know it's about Ryan Reynolds and Rob McClennie they bought the this Wrexham football club football club and it goes down through it and every week it's actually very good people should watch it every week it's actually more about the people that live in the area and the supporters and what the club means to them and the different things that so it's actually quite interesting and there's not as much I started off fast forward in the soccer and by the end of it I was actually watching I kind of cared whether they won or lose but the second last episode that they did was talking about male friendships and it was really an interesting one to watch like male friendships is in what makes them have like why men can get so obsessed and into soccer and things like that their friendships of men on the team the friendship of Rob McClennie and Ryan Reynolds and it was actually really interesting and then in context with this you could the two really kind of went together that you know people have and in particularly men it's a it's a more difficult for men of a certain age to find friends and to meet new people and to kind of have like the best friend and all that kind of stuff and that when things happen then within that relationship they may not necessarily be going to talking things out but I think oops there's the lights gone off there you go I think but it's very good yeah I think it's it's interesting yes and I think it's maybe you know what is the basis of friendships and what do they talk about and stuff okay you tune to the 9 till noon show here on Highland Radio loads to come on the program but

exclusive pre-screening of that film the banshee of in a sharing and there was a bit of excitement before the break because all our lights went off it was so fun finula what are you giving the film out of 10 then i i i'm trying to think of things in it that i didn't like in order to not just say 10 yeah and i'm struggling to find something i really enjoyed it like i said this is not something that's going to wrap up in a bow but as somebody that normally likes that don't let that dissuade you from going to see it it's the acting is that even my old favorite my favorite irish actor iran monahan pops up in it so you're really logically you you don't want to give it 10 out of 10 but you almost would have to because yeah because like i i really can't think of anything you know and there's a lot of great great movie for the weekend folks oh my god yeah it's just so good and there's lots of things in it that not that in other movies i'd be saying to you oh well i don't like when they go a bit bigari i don't you know like at one point there's animals in the house you crack like that and they're kind of like yes i'd normally be rolling my eyes but in this it just works it works you know the way they do it i think when i see it the second time and i would like to see it again i'll probably give it 10 out of 10 then for now i'm going to give it nine i do have questions but i can't say on air what it is about it because it's something late in the film i can say to you afterwards and you don't want to see because you're going to see it great you don't want me to spoil it so i i wouldn't even say to you off air i'm not giving those tickets the way i'm just taking them i'm not somebody just getting a mug but i'll give it nine or nine nine and a half ish i have one little quibble it's pretty high i really loved it stay the right way you are i want to welcome on to the program now and hopefully we're connected thomas gabriel good morning thomas morning how are you i am fantastic great to have you on the program earlier on we heard your track long way home beautiful beautiful sound and very clear your bloodline thomas you are the grandson of the legendary johnny crash cash hugely popular in this country as he is worldwide a beautiful track that is thomas well done on it oh thank you he is my uh my grandfather he's uh my mother's father my mother was kathy but yeah thank you for uh i'm glad you could worry you liked a long way home yeah it was it was lovely and people are going to be able to hear you perform you have a series of concerts coming up here in donny gall you are in ashen kill car that's in kill car tonight on the 29th you're in the ballah theater ballah buffet another wonderful venue and then on the 30th uh kuldaf Mcgrories a real great opportunity to to see you for people living in the northwest of arland thomas so why these series of gigs here well you know i've toured ireland before with my band and this time i wanted to come and you know after the the lockdowns and and and being everybody it just seems like an acoustic project was was what i was really what was on my heart you know i wanted to the connection coming back into connecting with with um with everybody even in the states but especially um since i uh i actually had had had quarantined in ireland so i i just felt um i felt very at home here and i wanted to connect in a way that was uh very personal and so we just i just had this uh i wanted to go do uh an acoustic tour so i could we could do some sitting rooms and i like to talk a lot so um i like to talk and and that way we can kind of sit down and do music and and and just kind of uh let that energy flow between us on a personal level yeah it's clear your your sound is very similar to your grandfather johnny um and also to some extent your your your life followed similar similar pathways and and and that is your life experience uh is is a quite a bit of your influence and motivation too for what you do thomas yeah i um you know genetics are uh run strong in this family i not only have i uh lived out a lot of his songs um but also uh we've had similar bouts with addiction and we've we've had uh we've had very uh similar similar lives um i uh you know one of the things about uh being in this family is also with you know i'm i'm a musist musician in my own right and with my own songs but i also uh like to pay uh you know uh tribute with um with bringing my own family songs along i think of it as that you know it's a like it's a family business that i like to continue it's a funny one as an artist it is a funny line to to to walk i presume that is actually a completely accidental musical reference there i assure you might but that was an accident but it no there was no pun intended but it was wonderful if i had intended it because you are as you say you're your own man uh but at the same time you one can't ignore neither do you want to uh your wonderful grandfather yeah and well the thing is you know and i said this the other night and in one of my shows was uh you know when i get when i get there we've already got something in common i miss i miss him the audience misses him and so we already have that in common when we get together you know and so that's one of the things that uh everywhere i've ever gone regardless of of uh whether they they know me or not they they they tend to uh recognize the voice and i guess the and the and obviously the songs so you know it's we've already got that ahead of us we've already got that going for us when i get there and then uh once i introduced my songs and myself to them you know then it's uh something that it's uh then it becomes a new relationship as far as musically and as far as audience to to me yeah and and your grandfather and others in your family and amazing musicians and i think really a testimony to that is i would i i would say arguably mine and i know young people in my life and it's the the go-to johnny cash album for them is the the last one he recorded or the last one that was released at at least the man comes around i think it was called i'm not a music aficionado but i know good music when i hear it if that makes sense uh thomas and um i mean to have that longevity in a career and to be producing amazing music and his own amazing take on music uh almost effectively on on his deathbed and i mean that with no disrespect what an amazing what an amazing talent and what an amazing legacy to have a part in playing continuing yes that's you know i was there um during a lot of the recording of the last of the last tracks and he was very happy with it and right it was on and and you said no disrespect and it's not it's fact it's uh it was on his deathbed pretty much you know it was it was very much at the end and it was something that he was able to to pass no uh feeling very very good about he was and proud it was it was an epic it's an epic album it really is and and that's it's one of my favorites part of that raw vulnerability in the voice i'm sorry no sorry uh there's a slight delay in the line thomas it's part of that sort of raw vulnerability and almost at times weakness but strength at the same time in the voice that makes it so special it makes it so special to me and others in my family as well um thomas so you are playing tonight as i mentioned and this is a real opportunity for people to see um a genuinely a brilliant artist uh close to home uh tonight in asin kill car in a kill car in kill car uh the bala theater balaba found the 29th and also the 30th in kuldaf Mcgrories and this is this is your type of performance is it this is what you want to do thomas you've hinted at it you just want to sit there with your guitar with the audience and have it out with them that's what you could say yeah you know it's one of the beautiful things about the way that we're doing it right right now is the fact that it's it's it's like a visit you know it's like if we were to come into a living room and and and and and be able to just one-on-one talk and have stories and have and discussions even and go over some songs that are that are really uh personal you know it's uh it's not your traditional uh show i love that you know that's what i was looking for brilliant okay listen thank you so much for your uh time um um thomas and we had a real treat and hearing uh your your song a little earlier on and we look forward to having the opportunity to hearing you live thanks for your time this morning really appreciated and tickets are available some tickets are available for those shows too so people should hop on that right uh right away thank you very much take care of yourself and well thank you for having me thank you so much it's been our pleasure and michael and fenu before quick break uh you you can hear you can i don't know that's maybe i had the michael but i don't know how much of that you heard yeah we did all of it you can hear johnny cash absolutely yeah yeah he does yeah he does it's hard to beat johnny it really is agreed okay like his last album was amazing it just was i mean hurt uh so many people have done version of that but his version of one as well and listen the voice isn't perfect but i think to some extent that's what that is part of it that's part of the way it works just beautiful because it's just there right and see some of the images of how those songs were recorded towards the end of his life to just be able to have the drive to conclude that amazing okay uh right now we all have to do is

welcome back uh to the 9 till noon show two things i've been uh watching uh one is trigger point which of you like that because i want to take you out i want to take you out and then but by the time it ended i actually felt because i i did give it a review and it was kind of a little bit middling but by the time it actually i got to the end of it i was like start in episode five like this is a person and people don't let them near anything that's explosive oh well i because i mean literally they have a light switch you're kind of like really the light switch uh everything how are she not blown up years ago huh i mean surely even i would know all right you can't see the bomb let me get the light for you oh there's a second uh you're like oh that but actually i found it because it did load the stuff and i didn't give it a great like i was like oh maybe five four five but but when it actually finished i was saying i don't i'm sorry i apologize for anyone hasn't watched it right because i'm going to spoil a bit of it and i don't care there's a part where there's a part where her her brother is in a car right with a bomb and he's in there panicking because there's a timer going down and then she goes oh well the timer is not really real she says i'll be and all she tells people stay quiet don't move the whole way through that's all she shouts and instead of saying side the door and saying to her brother you know everyone would get out because the time is going down she just goes up to have a chat to command oh bang yeah car you know i mean it's so important leaves him on his own which obviously is going to make him do the one thing so anyway and secondly which i will highly recommend and i think i watched it on apple play or watch other one i watched it maybe on youtube there's a couple of different yeah different places i probably watched it and it's called upgrade from 2018 it's kind of sci-fi brilliant great film never heard of it before and stumbled upon it and it was a great show so if you look at some it's a sci-fi thing i could set the future or sort of the future someone might say to stope you know i haven't a clue you know what word means i don't know what that word means but that that's kind of have you got one of those word of the day calendars because that's that's a good one to stope you know i follow i follow dent on on twitter what's the susie dent that's she explains everything did as you go i give that a squarely i see it's on apple so i'll i'll give it a i would definitely i would definitely uh watch that right okay i mean i'm not even going to go near fulcrum crest on dvd i wouldn't be your thing on dvd but you're sitting watching that so you know get out there and everyone's gonna have to borrow yours to watch it no well it was on cbs drama like 10 years ago that's where i i all right time machine or so i was i was taking i was taking more of pushing the nostalgia button where people will be like i am or watching that there you want you give it you've a minute all right and talking lower 10 12 12 years ago fulcrum crest got a rerun on cbs drama every day i wanted michael do michael recorded every single all 227 episodes i recorded them to dvd so i have every episode oh so they're not actually official dvd so no you put you well they're not it's not ours and it's literally he's bootleg it's no i less i give them fulcrum crest on michael's bootleg dvds that is and dvds in practice so the question is i'm sure people remember watching it on cbs drama 10 years in fact it was on zone zone there was zone thriller and then it became cbs drama and i was like you're boring me but anyway it's a really the thing about fulcrum crest greg is by the time it went off the air the producer's joel sternow and and so they're the guys who did 24 so that there's a dna of 24 it's such a a good drama series i'm on season three and i'm sure there are people out there who watched it yeah the lights are it's good is this a halloween thing if you have the lights going out they were definitely being haunted and we're definitely being haunted here yeah is there was there any chains rattling last night in the hall is we're giving out about the cost of the cost of electricity oh yeah that was a very useful that was very old older there's it yeah but they're punishing you know for giving that information you shouldn't be giving that information out electricity gods and now this okay and the rest of them yeah but that was very useful information but um so yeah i'm sure i'm sure there are people are like i remember that used to be on cbs a cbs drama still is i don't have sky now is it still a thing go rid of it because it had a lot of sky shows for man it doesn't have sky it has but you can access them otherwise you can access them through their illegal through their legal app through their legal app i've never seen cbs drama but that's not to say that it's not there because that was a great channel that was a great channel that was a great channel out of all of those it was a load of those kind of shows back in the day like Dallas and fucking crest and and that was the one that was more of a crime drama and that's where you see the impact of 24 there was always like Richard was always fighting the cartel and they were always planting bombs and blowing up limousines so you didn't have that in the other soaps that's why when i was a teenager i watched it because i was like well this is really a crime show and he's sort of an anti-hero okay funula um the letter can a literary festival i mean just show with a little bit of culture on this i know i totally forgot to bring in my thing with me so you don't like the detail no no i do there was loads don't we've we've been mentioning it um on the station all week there is some amazing stuff on all week on in the library all weekend apologies on in the library on in um the denigal museum all down around by the cathedral quarter and it's just i'm definitely going to there's two things that i am definitely taking up one is i love jane austin and on saturday at three o'clock in the museum there is a talk about and i'm not even going to mention it because i can't think of a man's name but obviously jane austin had relatives that lived here that had the big house i know nothing about it after being a big jane austin fan for all of my life never knew that she had denigal and island connections so this is to give you a bit more information on it and they have like the photos and all this kind of thing that they're going to be going through and then for me on sunday i'm going to go to the um another great aught irish author that i absolutely adore um in our house my my grandmother would give you the the book when you turn to certain age which is brendan behan so we all read the borstle boy and that is on in the uh where's that one on that was on the library isn't it yeah is it i don't know where it is okay oh dylan's hotel sorry that's dylan's hotel at one i'm trying to read the thing sorry apologies i'm trying to read the two views on it and you can't get it right i know stay where you are whilst we're one mind that's not necessarily a good way you are it doesn't the fact that we're the same person doesn't make enough better i think we're better i want to say hello to karen connell actress in the bastard son and the devil himself karen congratulations on landing this uh this amazing role and good morning to you good morning and thank you so much uh pretty exciting isn't it yeah it is you went through the whole old old age audition process and uh how was that what was it like and then to to get the call up and then to start filming the show just must be amazing it was wild um i was actually in la doing that um doing the auditions audition as you said um i had to do like i think i think the first the first audition round was about three things and um i felt very confident with her like the the second i got the script i thought it was so well written and i loved her you know i just loved this character so much i was like right i'm gonna like go all out on this and um i spent like just two or three days like i think i had maybe three or four day turnaround and i did nothing but practice things um and put them on camera with um in a studio in la and i sent them off and i felt really good about it you know i just joined a new agency and the agents got back to me and he's like these are really good and i was like yeah they are quite good actually let's see but i felt i felt different about it i felt like very um like i'd done my best and i couldn't do any more and i was able to kind of let it go because i knew i couldn't do like that was like my truest kind of characterization offer yeah and then um i had a i got a call then to say they wanted to have a chat with me so that was quite exciting it was like 3 am la times they were in the uk and uh i had a chat with um the director column about the the character and they gave me a bit more context off the scene because i only had about one one episode to to go off so i had to make up a lot of stuff myself so they sent me another few episodes for me to read to get a bit more context to give me some notes and they asked me to redo the first two he asked me to redo the scenes and then do another one so then i had like three or four days like the same thing to to um redo the scenes and trying to decide whether i should stick with my initial thoughts or change it up but i decided to stick with my initial character over and then um i got to do the 13th which was kind of a scene showing a different faceture and uh sent them off and i think i must have got a call about maybe two weeks later and they were just like you need to get back it's an interesting process karen so how much of your interpretation of this character makes the final uh sort of production if you know what i mean so maybe people may not realize there's that level of influence from the actor themselves yeah it's it's fully my characterization i very early on asked the director if i should read the books because sally green um she's wonderful i've met her a few times and it's it's her character you know and i talk to her a lot about throughout filming like about um about cilia but the the director actually advised me he's like you know do what you're doing you don't need to read the books and pull afterwards like i don't want to influence you we like what you've done with her so just keep doing it so it's completely um my my my kind of um feeling brilliant and there's a bit of rough and tumbling there too isn't it this is uh you have to not just staring staring listfully uh beyond the camera no no she's not a jane austin i was just listening to the lady before me there um she's it there was definitely rough and tumble there was stunt training she's very physical she's a tank so she is and um i had to get a lot stronger for it and learn learn how to fight and then learn how to stunt fight which are kind of two different things like boxing and doing crab mega and doing all of these really cool um sports and activities to try to to try to feel like what it would feel like to be someone who's a very skilled fighter because she is a very skilled fighter she's um there she's she's not afraid of anyone this woman so and it has to be done right i was watching a tv made for tv film and this is no disrespect to the actors involved but action scenes there's so much skill in it has to be done right because it has to look authentic and we congratulations Karen by the way and where your career is going as well it's an amazing thing and you've obviously had Vikings Valhalla in not too long behind you just a quick question you've seen you've seen the first episodes you've seen the process i'd say it's so my eye opener you know when you see the finished product versus having gone through the process uh in the time beforehand it's amazing to the it's an awful lot of skill involved in filmmaking not only just the actors but everyone around them yeah and it's a complete collaboration i mean there's one thing about experiencing what it's like on the day in front of the camera with millions of different departments doing their bit to make it look real and to to help like the audience sit into that world and then when you when you start to see the the finished product after post-production it's a completely different beast as well like the editing and the special effects everything that goes into the music the grading it's um it's actually really humbling like you i'm a tiny cog in a in a huge a huge production you know to make it look the way it looks and it's it's actually just so it's so humbling and so magical to see the finished result and to see myself looking so different and and being somebody that that i that i'm not you know um it's incredible the best in the world like congratulations on it and it's clear your career is only going one direction and that's all um and it's great to we look forward to seeing it's on netflix it's the bastard son and the devil himself uh and uh karen listen thanks so much for spending the time to talk to us this morning it's really appreciated and uh that's great thank you so much for having me i
