Good afternoon from Bitcoin 2022 in Miami. I'm Ronella Hernandez with Cointelegraph and I'm here with Noah Perlman, the Chief Operating Officer at Gemini. Thanks so much for having me. Thank you. So let's start from the beginning. How did you get into blockchain? How did you first hear about it? And do you remember the price of Bitcoin at the time? I think I can answer all of those. So I actually have a somewhat usual trajectory to crypto in that I started interested in finance and actually worked at a traditional finance shop for almost 14 years. One of the duties I had at the bank that I worked at was evaluating all the crypto and blockchain opportunities that came to the bank, evaluating them both for credit worthiness, reputational risk, regulatory concerns, and through that I became interested in the cliche down the rabbit hole into crypto. When the opportunity came, Gemini was looking for a Chief Compliance Officer. I was contacted, was I interested in applying and the rest is history as they say. All right, and then how do you see the role of Gemini in the growth of blockchain and mass adoption? Yeah, great question. So we have a very specific role to play in the ecosystem and actually if I can sort of talk a little bit about the state of the crypto report that we just issued. So we Gemini issues every year, a state of the crypto report surveys almost 30,000 adults in 20 different countries and I know we'll get into some of those results, but one of the things that is very clear from that survey is that people want a regulated compliance solution and that's the role that Gemini plays. Since our founding, we have been about security, about compliance, about regulation. The motto of our founders, Tyler and Cameron Winklevoss is we ask for permission, not forgiveness. So wherever we operate in the world, we do it with collaboration with the regulators and there's definitely a demand and a need for that and that's part of the role that we play. Okay, and so I know in this report, it was found that the ownership of crypto has doubled, especially in Latin America and Asian countries. So what do you think is the biggest driver of that? Yeah, yeah, so we did that exactly right. So in 2021, it was a breakout year for crypto. Almost 50% of people bought their first crypto in 2021 and I think there are a number of things contributing to that sort of wider adoption. So one is something, what we just talked about is regulation and security and crypto is no longer the Wild Wild West. The longer it persists, the more people feel comfortable that it's safe and secure. And then the other thing, a more unfortunate driver of adoption is simply with the sort of dislocation you're seeing in the world. So the report found that inflation was a big driver and in fact, we found that in countries where the currency has been significantly devalued over the last 10 years, people there are five times more likely to say they want to buy crypto. Right, yeah, out of desperation or just a need for our alternative payments and transactions. Well, no, exactly, you should hit it right on the head, the need. So in developing countries, the results would suggest that crypto is a nice to have. Maybe this rounds out the portfolio, but in countries that are developing or where there is severe sort of currency, volatility dislocation, it becomes a must have. Right, right. And that's what the numbers are showing us. And what do you think are some of the barriers to adoption? Yeah, good question. So a couple of barriers. So one, despite what I said earlier about regulatory clarity, that's still a big barrier to adoption. People around the world, not just in the US, is this legal? What is this crypto all about? And having some regulatory clarity there. The other big one is education. And people still need to be more educated about what crypto is. And interestingly enough, one of the findings that came out of a report that probably of all the ones that surprised me probably the most is that people found, we found that people were more likely to buy crypto if they had more education about crypto or did their own research than a recommendation from a friend. And the reason that surprised me is in traditional finance, you like to think that the friend network, oh, this is a financial advisor I work with, I recommend them, that that drives adoption. Here it's really being educated. It's one of the reasons why we invest a lot in education. We've got a property, cryptopedia, which is a great beginner sort of starting point for people is why we're really committed to it. Okay. And then what other initiatives do you have in order to establish more education? So cryptopedia is the big one. The other thing that we do is we, through some of our properties, we've got a frontier for an investment fund and something that we're not quite ready to launch publicly. But we are, but I can talk about it. I mean, one of the main things it's gonna be doing is investing in core developers and investing in resources to help educate more people about it. And what about on the institution side? What is their incentive to adopt crypto and to work with Gemini? Yeah. So, well, institutions are coming in because for a number of reasons. One is they see the opportunity and we've seen in recent weeks, I mean, we've seen Goldman do a trade, Cowan, we've seen other institutions come in and despite the fact that just a few years ago, we all know the quotes about what they were talking about crypto and not even allowing, I mean, I've heard anecdotes that in some banks you couldn't even like put crypto in a memo. But now they're coming in and one of the reasons they've gotten comfortable is players such as Gemini and there are others too who understand regulation, who play by the rules, who understand reputational risk, who understand KYC. An institution is not gonna partner in this space without somebody who plays by the same rules. It's just too much risk for them. So that's a big driver. Okay. And what about stable coins? Do you think like what are the policy issues there when it comes to adopting stable coins? Yeah, so stable coins are interesting and I'm sure most of your viewers know what they are but for those who don't, stable coins are simply cryptocurrencies, crypto coins that are pegged one to one to a particular currency. So there's no underlying volatility. So for example, Gemini has one, GUSD, the Gemini dollar. It's literally pegged one to one. It doesn't change from a dollar. There's been some controversy about stable coins because there are some that are issued where it's unclear that there's actually a real dollar backing it. And I won't name names, but there have been audits and concerns that are the funds really there. Gemini dollar by contrast. And again, there are others that do this as well. Every single dollar is backed by a real dollar that's audited by the DFS. And so you don't have those concerns there. But I think the general concern is for those, one of the big concerns is that where there isn't a real dollar, is there some real risk to the financial system because you've got billions of dollars sloshing around and is it backed by anything? Right, right. Okay, and since we are at Bitcoin Miami, I wanted to ask you where you see the Bitcoin ecosystem going and growing in the next few years. Yeah, sure. And now I'll answer your question at the outset. What was the price of Bitcoin when I first, I think it was about 4,000 give or take. Okay, okay. So, you know, even with a sort of recent pullback the last couple of days, still 10 times where it was when I started. Yeah. And I know for a lot of people that 4,000 number is probably 10, 20 times where they found it, but that's where I was when I really started following it. So look, I still think, I think Bitcoin, I know we're at the conference and obviously we've got thousands and tens of thousands of people here who are talking about us studying it.  I'm excited about lots of different projects but Bitcoin remains the project that is sort of, you know, the OG as it were. And I think that again, for people who are less close to the space, you know, the lot of the criticisms about its effectiveness as a currency, you know, speed, energy, I think these are, while legitimate questions that you're all being solved as the ecosystem evolves. And one thing, I mean, Bitcoin, you know, for those of us who are following it and for I think a lot of us that would agree it's really a store of value. It's digital goal 2.0, easier to transport, you know, more finite, a great inflation hedge. So, you know, big things ahead. Do you think it has a possibility of becoming like a standard for global financial transactions? I do. Now, where I, you know, I come from it maybe more conservative than others in that I don't know that that's an inevitability but I don't think it's impossible either and I think there is a likelihood that you might see increasing adoption and start really seeing it as the standard. All right, amazing. Well, thank you so much Noah for your time. Thank you so much for having me.


Item number, SCP-069. Object Class, Safe. Special Containment Procedures. SCP-069 is currently impersonating former Foundation agent and is housed at Humanoid Containment Site 06-3. SCP-069 is to be provided with any reasonable requested item and or material so long as such request does not violate Foundation security protocols. Special Containment procedures have been modified. The following now applies. As SCP-069 is currently on Suicide Watch, all requests it makes must be approved by no fewer than two level three personnel. If SCP-069 attempts to breach containment, it must be subdued using non-lethal methods. If SCP-069 dies, undercover agents are to be instructed to monitor reports of incidents in which individuals appear to have escaped certain death and SCP-069 is to be re-contained as soon as possible. Note, despite the fact that SCP-069 is identical in all ways to said agent, it remains an active SCP in containment and is not to be treated as a Foundation employee. Any requests for classified information are to be denied and visits from former co-workers without proper authorization are not allowed. Description. SCP-069 is a presumed humanoid entity, a variable appearance in gender. Through an unknown ability, whenever SCP-069 is left alone with a recently deceased human body, the body will disappear and SCP-069 will take on the appearance, mannerisms, and knowledge of the recently dead individual. Through extensive experimentation, it has been shown that SCP-069 is completely indistinguishable from the individual it impersonates, matching the original individual's fingerprints, DNA, and data expunged with nearly perfect precision. SCP-069 retains no knowledge of its abilities or former impersonations. SCP-069 responds normally to injury and pain, but if killed, will rapidly decay into dust regardless of any preservation attempts. SCP-069 will then re-emerge at the site of the most recent human death. There is no known maximum range to this effect, and so far has been observed in jumps of up to 675 kilometers. SCP-069 can impersonate a single individual indefinitely. However, it will gain an overriding urge to get their life in order, including but not limited to, resolving any outstanding financial or personal obligations, visiting extended family, updating their will and testament, and other acts of closure. When questioned, SCP-069 professes no driving motivation other than a desire to straighten out their lives in the event of unforeseen injury or death. SCP-069 first came to the Foundation's attention in 1991 following reports of one John M, a firefighter who miraculously emerged alive from a three-alarm building fire in which two other firefighters and 11 civilians perished. Undercover agents attached to the local authorities were notified of a possible SCP when reports emerged that the firefighter's equipment had been damaged beyond recognition and that it had been deemed nearly impossible for the firefighter to emerge unscathed. Approximately three weeks later, then presumed John M responded to another large-scale building fire, during which he entered a smoke-filled room alone and was never found. A single civilian was rescued from the building, again nearly unharmed, despite the heavy smoke reported within the building. SCP-069 was designated the following day and rendered into Foundation custody by members of Mobile Task Force's I-3, Body Snatchers. Addendum-069-1, in 2001, Agent M, a guard on duty assigned to SCP-069, was killed during the containment breach of SCP-069 and subsequently impersonated by SCP-069. Although initially in denial after being formed of its identity, it has been mostly cooperative since its impersonation of a mid-level Foundation employee. Contingencies for the use of deceased Foundation employees for future SCP-069 use is under consideration. Addendum-069-2, in 2000, SCP-069 attempted to commit suicide after a junior researcher accidentally informed it that the family of Agent M had been told that said agent was dead and of their subsequent reactions. Due to the massive cost of possibly having to recontain SCP-069, strict suicide watch measures are to be implemented. Plans to use other deceased Foundation employees as possible impersonation targets for SCP-069 have been suspended. Lesson complete. If you missed the previous orientation, go watch SCP-068, The Wire Figure, right now. Or for the complete course, watch this playlist.


I think it's just electric, I really do. I think people are just excited. You can just feel excited. Everybody, that's everybody in here. This environment is awesome. I would not be anywhere other than here. I enjoy coming here. The electricity like you said is just ecstatic. Perfect day, not a crowd in the sky. It's Alabama and LSU. This is what college football is all about. Here's to it. Looks like first 641.


Poly, ADP ribose, polymerase-1, PARP-1, is a protein that plays a central role in various physiological and pathological functions, including DNA damage repair, gene transcription, immune responses, inflammation, learning, memory, synaptic functions, angiogenesis and aging. In the CNS, PARP inhibition attenuates injury in pathologies like cerebral ischemia, trauma, and excitotoxity. Suicidal proteases such as cuspases, calpanes, cathepsins, granzymes, and matrix metalloproteinases, MMPs, can cleave PARP-1 into specific fragments that serve as biomarkers for unique cell death programs. The roles played by some of the PARP-1 fragments and their associated binding partners in controlling different forms of cell death are also discussed.

Hi guys, welcome back to Daniel's Tech World on all the all the important places on YouTube Medium and YouTube Medium and DanielRozo.tech. So basically I have now got my Synology DSN20 plus NAS up and running and at this point in time what I am now doing is looking at the intended purpose of backup. So let me just explain this already in several videos but why not just explain what all this is fitting into. So I have my backup documentation documented here on GitHub under my master backup strategy is what I call it and what we are going to be doing so typically for my local backups from this Linux desktop what I do is I keep four, well let's forget about the windows one I keep three SSDs in my computer and one of these is just for timeshift, timeshift is based on our sync which is a differential backup methodology and I will just explain in a second before we start this exactly what that means and then I take a harder backup onto clonezilla, clonezilla is a full backup, a full backup is the easiest one to explain it just backs up the entire system differential, let me just go through this now differential versus incremental backup so differential backup, yeah copy of all items changed since last full backup so you have full and then differential. So that means that the blocks are relatively big, an incremental backup which you are going to see in a second that basically each time that it runs it likewise starts from a full but then each time it runs it's backing up since the last incremental job so basically you need a it's going to be faster because it's going to be smaller chunks if you think about it like every time you're just backing up you're just comparing to the last job and the last job compares to the job before that and before that and before that so ultimately the slices are going to be smaller but the problem and I can put it better than this in some cases the backup software requires all iterations of the incremental backup for data restoration one piece so it's like a chain basically and the weakness that's the weakness if you have a failing storage media was corrupted sectors and just one of the chains or one of the chains didn't run properly one of the incremental backups this you know in order to restore if your system collapses on Friday here in order to reach you know you'd need Thursday's backup Wednesday's backup Tuesday's incremental backup Mondays and if it failed at this point you wouldn't be able to get the data again it depends on the backup program a differential backup you start the first time you run a differential is the heaviest because you're starting that full backup and that's what it compares against every time that it runs basically okay again depending on the backup software can you get various snapshots you know see what I'm going to do in DSM is just create one I keep thinking of in S3 lingo here one bucket but they're called if I go into and they're not managed it's disconcerting they're not managed in file station they're managed actually in a shared folder here so I went ahead and created Daniel desktop backups and I'm actually just going to go ahead and wipe that because I decided that there's no need to economize when it comes to folders and I'm going to give GR sync which is what I'm going to show you firstly I'm going to give it its own folder over here so that's just delete it so let's go ahead and do that I'm going to create a new shared folder on my network and I'm going to call this Daniel desktop backups underscore and just going to use that to distinguish between the GR sync so GR sync as we said it's a G it's basically a GUI for our sync so you this is just saving you the kind of leg work and there's other G there's other of course in Linux there's always multiple options but the key I find in Linux is to find one good thing for each each common thing actually I'm just going to prepend the GR sync because I might get kind of hard to see if it's at the bottom so GR sync Daniel desktop backups I'm just going to description backing up Daniel's desktop to Synology over over GR sync and I always like to just know I'm going to write here differential that's why I really like to know GR sync to say I like to know exactly what methodology we're using again in my diagram time shifts incremental I think that should actually be differential if it's based on or I think and then clonezilla is a full disk image so I'm going to try it did not a success actually just had a hitch trying to get a clonezilla for some reason that's not clear to me over SSH but I'm sure I'll figure that out tomorrow so what I'm going to do now is set this up so I've just given it my description GR sync I'm not going to use encryption and boom and I'll be able to get my own permissions onto that so I by default have read write access and there we go so GR sync so now what now the next thing that I'm going to need to do is figure out some way to just get this onto my make a bookmarks that it's easily easy to get access to so I'm just going to click into files over here and you can see that I have the NAS already bookmarked and it's a little bit it's a little bit on the buggy side it must be said all these various file managers so what I need to do is just connect to NAS so if just give me one second I'm just getting good alright so basically the easiest way I find is to click on is go to your network and it'll find what whatever is on the network so I actually have I can see everything I can see the whole NAS and all the various folders within it here so what I've done basically the reason that these folders homes and home exists is because in order I actually set this up in order to get the SSH running you need to go into user and under the advanced settings this bottom thing enable user home service I needed to I needed to enable that in order to in order to when I SSH didn't import 22 that it would actually have somewhere to show to land to land so to speak yeah so basically you need to do that and let me just get out of this so that's why that exists and it creates in packet center sorry in file station it creates for you this homes which has everybody and home and so all I need to do is just go on to GR sync when we just create it and I'm just going to quickly bookmark this and it's going to call it GR sync you can see the network address usually actually connects over SMB but once it's there once we go into GR sync we should be able to quickly put that as our destination now I will go into GR sync open that up the tool of GR sync and here we go this is from the last time I just ran it so basically it's very simple you have here source and destination so I'm just going to do a full I'm going to do a full backup here from the root of the file system so just one forward slash and this is why you can see that it's mounted I think that's another thing if you bookmark it so I can just pick it up and you can see that's the main point of of this of this folder in the NAS now I've included preserve permissions and preserve owner and preserve time it's a basic full file system backup that we're running here over our sync you can go into advanced options and you can see I think you can exclude stuff in this or exclusion option but I'm not going to do that I mean you don't actually need to back up all these folders never do you need to back up the full the full Linux file system but I'm just going to do it for the sake of showing this one so that's basically it and then all you need to do over here you do have an option for simulation if you want to do that you can switch towards the destination quickly but I don't need to do that because they're configured correct and really you just click on there's one more thing you can you can see what you would need to run if you do change your mind about using a GUI and you want to open up the command line you could just type that in but I'm just going to use this for the sake of making life easy easier execute and you have your output here and now it's running and you can see it's backing up it's backing up the entire system the beauty of our sync unlike clone zilla and again I like clone zilla just because I think it's hard and it gives you nice images and it's full it's every time you run it it's a full system backup so that's my kind of like failsafe backup I use time shifts as I mentioned and I think that what this could do you know this wouldn't fulfill time shifts ability to create different restore points you know snapshots this would just give you one backup it's more I'd say for its redundancy in other words that you know you could run this at various intervals but that would give you one snapshot effectively that you could restore from if needs be there would be ways that you could configure you know you could create a few different folders in that destination and and create and create backups that way but it's a it's a manual approach so this is just kind of a simple tool for running our sync with a little bit of GUI in your favor it's not kind of a full-fledged automated you know there's no automation here scheduling you know that's at least as far as I can tell I hope I didn't miss anything but I'm you know this is a good one to start out with just to see how you can get an arcing backup running onto the NAS so let's just see if it's running and we can do that very easily from DSM clicking on GR sync and there we go we can see that it's in the process of building out the building it's a file system on the NHS and you know the way thing these things run is typically it'll build the folders first and then it'll start populating the actual files so if I go into boost I we can see there's already it's already actually dropped some files in there so I'm not gonna I'm gonna keep running this but I'm not going to I'm not going to show the whole process in this video so thank you for watching that was the first of our Linux backups on to Synology and the tool used here was called GR sync


Hi everyone, Joe for jaspyscasebreaks.com coming at you with a brand new release 2023 Bowman Baseball Jumbo Edition 8 box pick your team number 4 from jaspyscasebreaks.com. There it is, the full case right there, brand new release, a lot of great prospect hunting here. Big thanks to this group for making it happen. Thanks for spending a bit of your Wednesday with me. So if you've got Jumbo 3, next to your name, we did that Jumbo pack number 3 and you won that team there. Eric ended up with Last Bot Mojo with the Cleveland Guardians and there's the rest right over here. Some of the key names that we're looking for, Drew Jones, Justin Crawford, Edward Julian, Cam Collier, Spencer Jones, among others, three autos a box, some of them, the last break we did, I don't know how common this is going to be, but the last break we did, we saw four autos in a couple of boxes. So we're looking for three autos a box, on average as they say. So I think a number of years ago when I was doing some Bowman research, I stumbled across this website and Twitter account, which I will, I'll drop the link into the chat if you're watching live. I guess you'll see it right above my head too. But this guy is a combination of, I don't know what this person's qualifications are, but seems to have some decent information on here. And I think kind of gives you a little bit of scouting on some of these players, but also kind of gives a hobby spin to it as well, which I like. So it's not just purely on, hey, these are just the guys who are selling well right now. Let's chart it.  It's something a little different, seems to be pretty, pretty measured takes, you know, nothing too, nothing too hot, takey or too, too cold, takey, so you can take a look that if you want to do a little extra research. Yeah. For example, Cam Collier was also on our list here, just little, one of my favorite players in the product is what is what he's got here. Brief little analysis. True Jones stud. Let's see. I think he has him out. Does he have him out? Yeah. So Danny was wondering, hey, who am I going to get for the Marlins? Rex's looked, did the little research look like his base autos are nearly a hundred bucks and a blue sold for 450 according to this person, Jacob Barry Marlins outfield top draft pick power bat. He has some passes on some players. The other Marlins prospect, Troy Johnson, he's got, he's got a pass on it, but yeah, I think something different, something interesting to see. For Aqua Shimmer to 125, that's Christian Vecchero going to Jordan and the Nationals. Now, all cards are going to ship except for vet paper, basically, obviously rookie cards will ship, but Corey Seager, Brandon Crawford, JD Martinez, Albert Prescott, vet, vet base won't ship. Nice start. Speckle Justin Crawford, 215 out of 299, that'll be for Beverly and the Phillies. One of the key players we're looking for here. I probably did a case of this, so now that I kind of have a feel for it, I'm going to try to speed this up just a tiny bit. Here's a Spencer Jones paper for Matt Smith and the Yankees, potential two-way player. They don't force him to choose one position or the other. I'll save a Jacob Barry for you too, Danny, even though he's not on the list for us internally here. Let's look for some parallels. Let's look for some ink. Drew Jones paper going to Michael Golder and the Diamondbacks. Also look for some 259 to 499, Julio Rodriguez, Mark and the Mariners. The numbering looks different this year, right? The font, the size, the stamp, numbers actually look a little bigger. I appreciate the larger sizes. The font here on the name seem to be a little bit larger too. It makes it easier for me to read, especially when we're flying by these cards kind of on the quicker side here. Just Spencer Jones chrome. Jace Bowen is our autograph, some good penmanship there. That'll be Jace Bowen and Bowen going to Chad the Benny and the Pirates. Bring back Times New Roman. That's still in use, isn't it? I'm not sure if a serif type font would look good with Bowen baseball. That's an Edward Julian, Bowen chrome, Bowen first, Bowen chrome. For the twins, that'll be for Pat. Or Wingding. Can anyone actually read Wingdings? Yes. Yes they can, Julio, but very few people. And we've got a Samuel Zavala, 127 out of 299. Jenta paper for the Padres, David M. We've got Leandro Arias, 57 out of 150. Blue auto for the O's.  Ryan Crawford refractor to 499. For the Astros, that'll be for Orin. That was box one. Next box. I have a question, how insufferable are many Star Wars fans? Yeah, absolutely. I would say they are the worst. But such as having a popular series or popular franchise, I guess, everyone's going to complain about it. But what are you going to do? Can't please everybody.  I think when everyone gets to share their opinions and share their storylines and share their thoughts, everyone has kind of different what they call head cannon about what something should be. And if it doesn't kind of fit that, fit their own personal narrative, and you get angry about it and you want to share it. And you find people that share your opinion, you get the confirmation that you needed that, look, I was right, and there's Christian Hernandez, 27 out of 50. It's a nice one for the Cubs. It'll be for EA in the Cubs. He's number 73 on the Bowman Scouts top 100. And yeah, and you could say more without any consequences. Right. And if you don't get content and you want more content, but then you complain about getting more content, some people say there's too much content, someone says not enough Star Wars stuff. We need more Star Wars stuff, less Star Wars stuff. But if we do get Star Wars stuff, it's got to be like this. You know, I think it happens with anybody, with everybody, the big franchise like that. Mission Impossible should be like this, not like that. Too much action, Mission Impossible. Why is James Bond like this? Too tall, too short, too blonde, too this, too that. You know, it's not how Bond is supposed to be. If you read all the Ian Fleming books, here's Spencer Jones to 125 and that sort of, I think Lunar Parallel. Yeah, you can see like the craters of the moon right there. It's for Matt Smith and the Yankees. 6'7", 225, big dude. All right. And you can say, yeah, and Danny's right. People can say more with less consequences, you know. And then you tell them, hey, why don't you become a writer for one of these shows? Oh, wait, they're townless hacks. There's Nick Voight, San Diego Padres, David M., if you don't like it, write your own show.  At the end of the movie, right at that pivotal part of the movie, they're not cleaning the theater. Some dust got into my eye. Can you believe that? And I went to the manager at the end and he's like, listen, you've got to dust up this place. You've got to clean up this place. At a pivotal part of the movie, some dust got in my eye. I wasn't happy with that. And I was like, what are you guys doing here? Clean this place up. You know how much movies are these days? Movies aren't expensive. Moves are pricey these days. At least you can do, you know, run a Swiffer across this joint, unbelievable. If you look back at the Daniel Craig James Vaughn, there's Michelle Dessen, 165 out of 175, Orioles, David. I think all of them are pretty good, right? I think Quantum of Solace might be the only clunker in there, but I want to say there was a, I want to say that that was in, that was during a writer strike back then. Now I want to say they either kind of rushed through the movie or they just, you know, didn't have proper writers there and it just wasn't, it was halfway done and the other half had to be done and I think that's why it was kind of a, kind of a mess. There's Nero William Sidenio, 466 out of 499 for the Friars, it's David and the Padres. And then our third auto is Gabriel Martinez, 206 out of 499. Oh, your daughter has a stuffed animal. Is it like, is it like the stuffed animal in the movie? Toronto, that's going to be for Nancy, won that spot in The Filler. Also the French language, the daughter's French. The French language also much more, does it sounds much less stuffy and pretentious when it comes from the mouth of a child? French accent's really cute. So I get to, but I think they ended that series really well. I mean, you know, bringing, you know, that family element into that franchise could have been, it's a very risky move. It had for, you know, a hyper-masculine character like James Vaughn, so like they were able to, so they were able to handle that part pretty well, I think, to sort of close the Daniel Craig chapter of James Vaughn. I'm interested to see what they'll go with.  Everybody gets angry about, this is too woke. It's not woken up.  Any major franchise will get it. James Vaughn will get it. Every major franchise, Lord of the Rings will get it. You know, I mean, now I feel like nowadays, I feel like just, it's woke is just a catchphrase for, it's just like a catch-all for, I just didn't like it. No one's forcing anybody to watch, they go and watch all the old stuff if you don't want to. Jayce Young, 75, that's true, Mike, yeah, woke is just saying another way of saying just politically correct, but I don't know, now everything's, I feel like that's been taken to sort of an extreme. So people will take every little thing and try to say that, take it to its extreme. The buck's going to hang on here, they're tied 73-73. And then we've got blue, what's this parallel, 95 out of 125? Looks like clouds, earth, atmosphere. Looks nice though, there's Oscar Gonzalez for, for Cleveland. That's for Eric. And here's a Joe Stewart for the Halos, 105 out of 499. Stephen Carney with the Angels. Is that, is that where he's going to do it live Rex? Bill O'Reilly, what, is Bill O'Reilly with us anymore? There's a Camp Collier for the Reds, that's going to be for, for Mark. Jimmy, what team is Alex Ramirez on? I want to say no, is the answer to that. Here's Jesus Baez to 150, that's for the Mets, that'll be for Mike. Now I feel like we haven't seen too many Mets in general, Jimmy. But maybe, maybe in this case, maybe this is the case. This is the case, this is the Jase, the Jase of Ina. That's for Mark, the set and the brewers, Mark B, brew crew. Bill O'Reilly is still with us. That must be the Sky Blue Parallel. That was to, sorry, that was to 125. Not his bone first, but his first autograph. And yeah, we definitely don't remember a Mets autograph in the last case, let alone that specific player. And we got a Justin Henry, Malloy, 52 out of 75. He's got a hyphenated first name, right, Justin Henry. Yellow, paper, parallel. Number 15, Braves Prospect, going to Steve Birch in Atlanta. Was there one with Alex Trebek, Rex said? Going off at one time? Going off? I thank you not to slander Alex Trebek like that. A kind and gentle soul, RIP. 43 out of 250, Jefferson Rojas. And we'll go to EAN, the Cubs. And do an autograph recap at the end of this. But I'll try, yeah, Jimmy, you probably spoke that autograph into existence now. Which would make Mike very happy. He has the Mets. Mike Doherty. Or in certain cultures, it would be Mike Doherty, believe it or not. Rex watched another funny video this morning of a guy claiming Bob Ross might have been a serial killer that painted his victim's murder locations. Dark. But that's a conspiracy theory that I can get behind. What's this person's evidence? Wasn't Bob Ross ex-military? Yeah, an 18-year-old Bob Ross enlisted in the United States Air Force and put into service as a medical records technician. He rose to the rank of master sergeant served as the first sergeant of the clinic in the Alice in Air Force Base in Alaska. And it's saying that, oh, we've got a parallel here. Roderick Arias to 125. Nice. I like this parallel. It looks sharp. That spotlight coming down on him. That's where he first saw snow. He was from Daytona Beach, Florida, where he first saw snow and mounted that later up here as recurring themes in the paintings. Interesting. 20-year career in the Air Force. No, the video did, well, that's a mistake on the videos part. They should have really, really leaned into it. I was hoping that that person, there's Marcos Cabrera 250 purple paper for Matt Smith. Yeah, happy little murder locations. Now, I would have said that he had psychologically profiled as a perfect contract killer for the government, trained assassin. Later, the weight of all those killings gave him a, you know, caused a psychological breakdown, where the only relief he could find was by paint. Then he also turned out that he's going to be painting murder locations. 441 out of 499, Jackson Ferris. That goes to EA and the Cubs. I feel like I got a book idea. You know, if someone can write a book called Abraham Lincoln Vampire Hunter, I could surely make a, surely combine the life of Bob Ross and maybe put him in a sort of HBO's Barry type situation. Mark with the Reds gets the Camp Collier paper. We got a Vincent Perrozo. 215 out of 250. Purple ray wave for the Metropolitan. That's going to be, to me, for Mike. We've got 142 out of 150. That's Ariel Almonte. And that lunar parallel. And it's going to be, we're on Cincinnati. Mark, got Spencer Jones. In his new movie, Paint, Owen Wilson plays a Bob Ross type painter and star of the TV show. What's the, I don't know, what's the conflict in the movie? Or is it a biopic? Biopic? Looks like Bob Ross and Gordon Ramsay trade places. Wait, I don't get it. In what? Where would Bob Ross and Gordon Ramsay trade places? They're, say, a Suzuki paper, green paper to 399. That's for EA and the Cubs. Get into this top over here. Penny Sleeves. There we go. And we've got Shea Whitcomb. Whitcomb. Whitcomb, cool whit. Shea going to Oren. I'm going to have to check it out. Similar character, not Bob Ross character, loses his job as a TV show star. And seeing how he handles that. When does that come out? I like Owen Wilson. Can I do an old, oh yeah. He's going to namely voice. Hey, Pizzle. Yeah, they certainly did. But they are going back home. So I think they'll get it. I would have preferred. I'm sure everyone would have preferred tonight. But I don't think the Grizzlies were going to make it that easy. Yeah, definitely from a Lakers perspective. Yeah, definitely do not want to go back to Memphis. They want to close out this series ASAP and hope that the King's Warrior series goes seven games. So they can get a little extra rest. Rex, do you think Jack Nicholson, Christian Slater and Owen Wilson have the same voice? You've got to get your ears checked, Rex. Get the wax out of your ears. Yeah, they don't want to go back to Memphis unless it's on vacation for barbecue. Apparently, there's an incredible fried chicken place next to the arena that some of the announcers were talking about. Speaking of Memphis, great movie set in Memphis. The Firm, when's the last time someone's watched The Firm with Tom Cruise? Excellent soundtrack as well. 005 out of 199, Jorge Ruiz. Looks like a Magenta Lunar. That'll be for the Angels, Stephen Carney. And we've got a Jackson Ferris autograph. 478 out of 499. Jackson Ferris, Bueller's Day Off. And if he makes it to the Bigs in Chicago, they're going to have a lot of fun with that. You think they drafted him just because of that? They're like, let's draft him. That's a second round pick. Gabe's got a question for us. Who's more annoying, Grayson Allen or Dylan Brooks? There's Nelson Rada, 81 out of 150. That doesn't see, what do they call that? Invicta parallel or something like that. It's on a slightly thicker card stock too. That'll be for the Angels. That'll be for Stephen. Eric Houston saying college, Grayson for sure. Yeah, I think probably Dylan Brooks, but mostly because he starts. Dylan Brooks starts, right? And he's a starter. Gets a lot more minutes. Probably a better player than Grayson Allen on the NBA level. Annoying or dirty? Gilo? Or is that what you mean by annoying? Here is Damon Keith, Blue Lunar, 34 out of 150. For Garrett and my Dodgers. Oh, Milwaukee will not go quietly into the night. 102 out of, 102 to 86. Will Miami regret not closing it out tonight if they go on to lose? There's still the fourth quarter left. There's Spencer Jones, me and Mr. Jones. What kind of effery is this? There's Xavier Isaac, 24 out of one out of 250. Purple Ray Wave, Professor X going to Brandon and the Rays. Gilo's building his all annoying team. He's got Grayson Allen on it, Dylan Brooks, Draymon, and we got Ben Brown, EA and the Cubs. Two of the three autos in this box, nice. Some might put Gilo, some might put Luca Donchich on that team. I feel like in the last year or so, people have gotten a little, a little fed up with Luca Donchich to sort of antics after every play, just kind of flapping his arms and yelling at refs. Or maybe Kyrie's probably a better one, right?  Yeah, I met many Bulls fans hated Robin on the pistons, but love him on the Bulls. That's funny how that works. People say that about catcher AJ Prasinski in his playing days. Yeah, there's Nancy and Luke as a big baby. Would Luca Donchich end up on Gilo's most annoying team?  Why would you hate LeBron? You hate him for scoring a lot of points, for winning some championships, for building a school in his hometown, Akron, sending kids to college. Does he hate him for that? It must be all the DUIs that LeBron gets, right? All the domestic violence that LeBron is accused of often, that must be it. Or maybe his high basketball IQ, maybe he hates that, I don't like high basketball IQ. Maybe he hates that he's a family man. Can you go into his kids' games? His kids' games on his off days? Going to see them play basketball, being a dad? You must hate him for that. Or maybe all the PEDs that LeBron takes? Is it that? Oh, he's an old school Kobe fan. Okay, I mean, they're two different players. You can separate those two players. I mean, I'm a bigger Kobe fan than LeBron for sure, but it doesn't mean that. You don't have to pick sides. Maybe that's what it was, Jimmy. He was just like, I can't believe LeBron James would try to trademark Taco Tuesday. That's it. Get out of here, LeBum. That's it. There's William Lugo, 67 out of 150 for the Mets. It'll be for Mike. And there's Juan Abrito. Going to the Rocks. That'll be for Steve Birch. There's Miguel Blyse, 91 out of 99. That grass parallel there for the Red Sox, Brandon Hall.  Who's that much of a, are you talking about LeBron or Luka, Danny? Oh, Gabe's putting Chris Paul on the all annoying team. Is LeBron, is he any more of a baby than any other superstar in the league? Kobe cried all the time about calls. I feel like any star basketball player thinks that they should get every single call every time someone brushes by them. There's Riley Greene to 299. And there's Pedro Ramirez, 61 out of 299, Speckle autograph. I mean, I'm not saying I like it. The constant complaining, but that's not how I would play the game. But I just feel like it'd be unfair to just single out one superstar for being a baby. Luka's a baby, Zion's a baby. Everyone cries, complains about, you know, you don't think Chris Paul flops and cries and everyone does it. It's Brian Ocunha to 499. Ronald's brother, go into the twins. That'll be for Pat. Oscar Colas, blue paper to 150. That'll be for David and the White Sox. Yeah, and bead flops. All right, two boxes to go. How do you talk about NBA if it wasn't Brady, one of the biggest babies of all time? I don't know, Brady, Brady is annoying in different ways. EA, what's going on? Are my raiders moving? I sure hope not. All right, the penultimate box. We got Michelle Deeson, 150 Deeson to 199. Orioles, David M. Michelle Deeson, Spencer Jones for the Yankees, Matt Cam Collier or Collier.  I don't know what to say now. If they make it to the big leagues, I'll learn their names. Why does he keep calling me meat? I'm the one that drives a Porsche. What movie's that from? Should be, it might be, should be an easy one, I think. There's Abel Bastitas, 117 out of 250. Using the fat side of the pen right there. That's gonna go to Detroit, Nancy. That's right, Danny, Bull Durham. Yeah, you're just lollygagging around the field. You're just lollygagging around the base pass. You're just lollygagging here. What does that make them? Lollygaggers, lollygaggers. There's a Mario Shendrick Martinez, 99 out of 125 for the Dodgers. That's Aqua Shimmer for Garrett and my boys in blue. You get bragging rights, Danny. You get to call up Jimmy and be like, yo, I got the movie quote right. What did you do today? Oh, nothing. You didn't get, you didn't get the movie right? Yeah, I heard that news yesterday. An anonymous Reddit post, which is kind of crazy. And that's all it took. Yeah, I don't know. Those Vegas odds, I think they're mostly speculative. You know, they must have some sort of formula, but I think for the most part, they're just adjusting those odds based off of the market. So if they suddenly start getting a lot of money for this player at, you know, at plus odds for some reason, they'll be like, yeah, I guess we'll move it down. We saw that news yesterday. I thought that was pretty funny. There's Roman Anthony, one little post. Roman Anthony, Red Sox, that'll be for Brandon. ESPN's fake draft tonight, Levis went 19th. 19th. Is he gonna fall to 19? There's Drew Jones in this, what light, what like Aqua Lunar Parallels, the lunar design, but in that sea foam green color, Jimmy feels like he should get break grabbing to put up with this annoying movie knowledge. Is Danny just spitting movie trivia facts all the time? Jimmy's like, yeah, I get it. What sort of experience, background would you need to have a job working at a sports book? Or no specific experience in the trade, train you. I think there is some training involved. I wanna say, from the little I know about the backend of that industry, sometimes I think there's Alejandro Osuna. Sometimes it's just employees or maybe at the ticket counter, you know, and they kinda work their way up to the back. Osuna goes to the range, that'll be for Paul and a Drew Jones autograph. 63 out of 75 on that Invicta, Bowen Invicta style. That is nice. Michael Golder and the Diamondbacks. Nice, I'm glad that he has some decent penmanship too. It's always good to see with the top, that's our fourth autograph in the box too. Or no, sorry, the other Drew Jones was just the parallel, but that's our third autograph, nice. Going back to Towers question, math, I think there's a lot of math involved. You gotta be good with numbers. I think if a math background, the cops are coming for this Drew Jones. You hear that? I don't know, I think I got a report of a Drew Jones autograph being pulled to Jasper's. Yeah, a lot of math, you just gotta be good with numbers. Math background, stats background, economics background, finance. A lot of Wall Street guys who crunch numbers well. A lot of times can, the good ones anyway, can end up being good sports gamblers. And if you get too good, sometimes you just get recruited to work behind the counter. Like when the FBI hires like hackers, instead of just putting in jail. I called Ace Rothstein, a real character. Not his, not that name, but he's a real life character, real life person. It's Ace is high with Ace Rothstein. You see this blueberry muffin? You see that blueberry muffin? How come yours is so much more than mine? You want me to put an equal number of blueberries in each muffin? You know how long that's gonna take? I don't care, just do it. We got a report of Drew Jones being pulled at Chaspis. We got a lime green Freddie Freeman paper, 191 out of 399. Garrett with the Dodgers. There's Colson Montgomery, 98 out of 199. Purple for the White Sox, that would be for David. All right, more Drew Jones paper for Michael. Edward Julian, he's from Quebec, Canada. So it must be a French sort of sound. What's my favorite Bowman product? That's 2023 Bowman Baseball Jumbo Edition. Coincidentally, you can find more of that on jaspyscasebreaks.com right now, my tower. You shouldn't believe that. Hey, Cam Collier, Bowman first autograph. Refractor to 499. Mark with the Red Lakes. Yeah, we've got him on our list as one of the sort of, sort of the top tier rookies. 254 out of 399. Ilber Eddetta for the twins. Another twin for Pat. Maybe we'll find an autograph of Edward. Oh, a question for the chat. You should specify to the chat. Otherwise I think you're just asking me. Hayden Younger, not to be confused with his rival, Hayden Older. This will go to Nancy and the Blue Jays. Here's a Chrome, Edward Julien. Nah, Gila, that was strong. Fuerte. 95 out of 125, Brooks Lee for the twins. That's for Pat. And Josue de Bala, 71 out of 250. Purple paper for Garrett and the Dodgers. And the last auto is for the Marlins. Troy Johnston, 22 out of 499. Refractor Autograph 4 for Danny and the Marlins. From Tacoma, Washington. And that, my friends, is that. I'm Joe for Jaspie'scasebrakes.com. Here is the auto recap and parallels of some of the top tier guys that we're looking for here, like Drew Jones. Thanks for watching, everyone. We've got more in the store. And we got time to do another case, maybe two. If we hustle, and of course, there is that Drew Jones. There you go, ladies and gentlemen. Once again, I'm Joe for Jaspie'scasebrakes.com. I'll see you next time for the next Bowman baseball break. Bye-bye.


Welcome to the original gangsters podcast. I'm your host Scott Bernstein. Today we're going to Arthur Avenue in the Bronx to discuss what we're hearing over at OG slash gangster report is the promotion of the Arthur Avenue OG Patsy Perrello. What we're hearing is that since Patsy got a prison in the last couple of years, he was promoted into the administration of the Genovese crime family. Most of my sources are telling me he's the conciliary. I've had a couple other people tell me he's taken the job as Barney's acting street boss, acting boss, acting under boss. I still believe Ernie's the under boss. But most likely I think Patsy is now the conciliary. This guy is one of the most respected wise guys in all of New York City, really in all the East Coast region of the United States. It only makes sense that as his tenure grows and more guys fall by the wayside, whether just general attrition, whether by going to prison or dying that Patsy would eventually make his way from couple regime into the administration. And like I said, this guy is old school. Sadly, what's one of the things most notable about him is his decades long quest to avenge the murder of his son in namesake, a situation from 30 years ago where we should also mention that Patsy's headquarters is Pasquale's Rigoletto, his restaurant on Arthur Avenue in the Bronx, that's the little Italy neighborhood in the Bronx. It's been a staple there for three, three and a half decades. And back in 93 Patsy, Perrello got into a skirmish with a Bambino crew, specifically Franco Cassio's son, Tori, Frankie Locke was John Gotti's underboss, Concilieri, his son Tori was a maid guy, and was causing a ruckus acting unruly. Patsy Perrello at that time, I believe he was only a soldier, I don't think he was a captain yet, I could be wrong, slapped him. And this was a great offense because of who Tori Locke Cassio's dad was, Frankie Locke was locked up on the Gotti case and according to court files and what some prosecutors have believed in the charge in some cases, hired an Albanian mobster connected to the the Locke Cassio group, and they murdered Patsy's son over the next, like I said, next two decades, up until somewhat recently, Patsy has sought to kill the guy that is alleged to have killed his son. This Albanian gangster went on trial for the murder of the younger Perrello and was acquitted.  But Patsy is a guy that his name rings loud and clear all across, transcends the Bronx. He was doing business with Joey Merlino and the Philly guys. That's how he got hemmed up in his last case, the 2016 East Coast LCN bust. Patsy did five, six years on it, came out in 2022. So we're hearing that he's in the admin right now, most likely the conciliary will keep you updated with all the latest promotions, demotions, arrests, all the 411 here at the OG. Scott Bernstein, OG pod out.


Welcome to Access to Trader, the number one community for those who are committed to taking control of their trading in order to achieve success, profitability, and longevity. Thank you for joining us. Here's Dan Shapiro to help you find your edge, master your process, and own your future. Hey guys, good evening everybody. Welcome to another edition of the AccessToTrader.com nightly wrap-up show where everybody is doing well. Just a couple of minutes to the closing bell. I usually record these videos after the markets close, but I have kids. They have high school basketball season and their games started a little earlier, so I try to get everything in. Let's talk about it. If you are brand new to the channel, guys, thank you very much for tuning in. We usually run this broadcast Monday through Wednesday, sometimes on Thursday, and on the weekend trying to give you guys the most unbiased view of the next trading day. Okay, so this is where we are, right? November 2021, we put in all-time highs. You can see that we've been talking about 408.71 now for the last three weeks, four weeks. It was just a matter of time that the market with this euphoric run-up, historical 2023 type of environment that we tested those all-time highs. And here we are, guys. Here we are. We are at all-time highs. We are literally closing 408.70s. And this really does kind of put the punctuation point and the period of what 2023 has been all about and potentially what could be coming up in the future. Do I believe the market has another 15, 20, 30% in it? Probably not, right? Probably not. Like we talk about all the time, all good things must come to an end. Every aggressive market usually does come to a rest. Not necessarily a screeching stop. I don't believe we probably have the same type of action going into 2024. But again, that's something we will talk about down the line when we get closer to the end of 2023. But the point is, it was a hell of a run, right?  Does it mean now that we are going to light it up for another two, three weeks? Hey, everything's possible, right? Absolutely everything's possible. Stocks make huge runs, then they rest, and then the money goes into other names. Those stocks have a big run, then they rest, then they go into other names. And it's been kind of like a rinse-repeat, rinse-repeat, rinse-repeat type of environment. And again, I feel like I've been sounding like an absolute broken record for the last month. But this is kind of where we are. We are in a bull market. I know a lot of you people that didn't participate in this whole bull run for whatever the reason was.  Everybody has an excuse, so I get it, right? I get it. Every single time a person would participate in any capacity in this rally, here's the market at all time highs. It's not the greatest feeling in the world, because there's a good chance if you didn't participate in this market run-up, well, you probably sat on your hands for 2022 because while cash is a position, and we all know how incredible the market was to the downside in 2022. So at some point, you've got to figure out what's your role in the market? What's your vision for your career? What's your vision health for the next day? What's your process going to be? What's your short-term thinking? What's your long-term thinking? What's your approach if the market does go down in 2024? What's your approach if the market continues to rally? Again, at some point, excuses, it's like asses, right? Everybody has one. Nobody cares about excuses. The world, guys, always remember this, especially for you new folks, just starting your investment journey, or your life journey in general, everybody has their own problems, right? Everybody has their own issues. The world doesn't care about your labor paints, right? The world does not care about the labor paints. The world just wants to see the baby, right? That's it. We don't care about excuses. We want results. This is a result-driven business. You're either able to identify the trend and try to maximize your potential in that trade, or you could sit there and find 3,046 excuses that you didn't. And it's okay if you didn't, but the point is the market's going to do what the market's going to do, regardless of what you think is going to happen. We've been talking about this for pretty much this whole year. Again, trade the market you have, not the market you want. I hear every day people talking about the market's going to crash, the market's going to crash, new slash, the market crashed last year, not last year anymore, right? So the point is going into this year, new year, guys, again, put yourself in a position of common sense, put yourself in a position of strength, and definitely put yourself in a position of the market that is right there for you, whether it's good, bad, or indifferent. The market doesn't care what you think. It sure as hell doesn't care what I think. The point is the market's going to do what it gots to do, right? And what's loved gots to do with it? We don't know yet, and that's what 2024 is all about. Other than that, again, the same usual suspects, right? Same usual suspects. We've been talking about meta for three days. You know, this is a monthly chart. Here's the daily chart. We've been talking about meta for three days when it broke out. Meta continues to break out. Netflix has been out of its mind, right? Netflix has been out of its mind. Tesla, which I still have a 10% runner from this 247 level. Stock is 10 points higher. Is it possible it finally reclaims its next channel here and starts going up on air? Yeah, absolutely. Let's look at the option flow real quick on Tesla. You could see what they're betting, right? You could see they're betting. They're betting the January 5 expiration, 262.50s, 267.50s. I saw they were coming for this year. The end of January 260 calls, somebody snuck in a bet here, 887,000. Tesla continues to look really, really good. I mean, looking names, for example, like Shopify, right? Shopify continues, right? Has this magical run continues to go higher? Amazon had a little bit of a rest today after yesterday's magnificent run continues to act well. AMD had this phenomenal, phenomenal run added another dollar and changed there today. And names like Microsoft, right? Microsoft has been quiet for the last couple of days. But boy, oh boy, look how tight this thing is getting, right guys? Look how tight Microsoft is getting here for the next couple of days. Microsoft gets out of this tight, tight channel here. The market flow is going to, the way that the market's been trading, the money flow is going to go into Microsoft. Look at the option flow, right? Look at the option flow on Microsoft. You know, they were coming today for the January 380 calls, 1.1 million. Another 380 calls, 640,000. 372.50s, 377.50 weeklies. You know, Microsoft is on deck. This one looks like it's the next one to go. The next one, money rotation into. Look at Apple, right? Apple right now is hugging back the 5-day moving average. It keeps on getting rejected off the 5-day. Hey, if the money flow comes back into Apple, and let's look at the Apple option flow today, right? If the money flow comes back into Apple the next couple of days, right? Then you have a scenario. Look, they were coming for the 200 weeklies, 1.9750 weeklies. If the money flow comes back and reclaims the 5-day moving average, you know, this thing's going to wake up again. You know, look at even names like, you know, look at the names like Deer, right? Look at a name like Deer. Deer had this phenomenal run, right? Phenomenal 2-day run, consolidated, woke up today. If Deer starts reclaiming back last week's highs, Deer is going to wake back again. So there's a lot of things going on. The idea that, you know, the idea that the market was only run up by a handful of stocks, I think, you know, that kind of went out the window. Even the video, right? I'll give you an example today, right? Even the video. So the video, yes, they had this phenomenal run. We caught a pretty nice move into the close on the video, and there was a report came out from a company in the name of Edgewater Research. First of all, Edgewater. Every time I hear Edgewater, I think of a bagel store, right? Edgewater is in Northern New Jersey. It's in Monmouth, no way. It's in Northern New Jersey. I think of it as like a bagel shop, right? So Edgewater Research came out on a negative note today on NVIDIA. So I had a decent profit yesterday on NVIDIA. I gave it all back this morning. I was actually sitting here, and the video was up like $1.50, $1.70 pre-market, and then this note came out, and I just watched the stock go down $5. So I wound up literally having a small net loss on the video from yesterday, but that's okay.  And look, that candle turned green. And that's the point of this market. The candle turned green. That means the close was higher than the open, and that means is the stock still, no matter that it was down a little bit less than about 1% today, is only a dollar away from the highs of the day versus $7 from the low of the day. And it really does show you that buyers are still there. They're still buying dips, and they keep on rotating into different names. So going into tomorrow, now that we have the official highest close of all time on the NASDAQ 100 40915 market down, this is the highest close. Now you know where you were, when you had the highest close and the whole formation, the NASDAQ, could we rally into the end of the year? Absolutely. Is it possible we turn around and say, this is it? Now we're going to swan dive. Everything's on the table. But make sure, guys, prepare for every single day. Put yourself in a situation that you're in control of the market. The market's not open for you to have a casino. That's what Las Vegas, that's what the Caribbean's for. That's what Atlantic City is for. You know, this is what betting on DraftKings and Fandals for. This is the stock market. This is where professionals sit there and wait and wait and wait until amateurs put their feet out and then they chop them off because that's what professionals do. They're snipers, right? Professional traders are there doing this 10, 15, 20, 30 years. They're not sitting there for a 20 cent scalp. They're looking at the market as a whole, not the sum of the parts, not the ins and outs of any single random day at a particular. And if you look what the NASDAQ 100 did and ever since it got and reclaimed the 50 day moving average, it's been absolute just craziness for 2024 and it really does show you guys. Just put this on your sticky pad for the rest of your investment career. Above the 50 day moving average is a green light. That's all it is. Below the 50 day moving average is a red light. Don't believe me. Go back to 2022. We spent 85% of the days underneath the 50 day moving average. That's a red light. And this year we spent literally about 90% above the 50 day moving average. That's a green light and that's called risk on. So going into tomorrow, trade by trade basis, case by case basis. Let me give you guys a couple of names that I am definitely liking for tomorrow. Again, like I said, I'm watching Apple. I'm watching Apple potentially reclaiming back the five day. I'm watching Microsoft. Okay. I'm watching Microsoft reclaiming potentially back the 20 day moving average. Tesla again, I'm looking to add at some point. I only got a 10% runner. Again, they're coming still with sizable bets for short term expiration on Tesla. I'd like to add somewhere either rising support on the five day or above the previous day's channel, but this thing looks higher and they're continuing to bet. They are continuing to bet into the options market, short term expiration. If you look at the option flow here again, 262.50s, 262.50s, 262.50s for the first week of January. So market continues to be strong. The dips are continuing to work. Again, is this going to last forever? No. No, eventually it will end and when it's going to end, it's going to end very aggressively. But when it does, it's going to give us super opportunities to the downside. Quickly, let's look at some of the pivots today. Again, you don't need to be creative in this tape. Chewie, if it opens below 22.30, use that area that not, if it needs to confirm the pre-market highs. Chewie got an upgrade today. 22.80 needs to build. Here was Chewie, right? Here was Chewie. It took out the pre-market highs. You'll see it here, right? So here was the whole pre-market high right here. It took it out 22.80s and Chewie went ballistic. Chewie threw the shorts. Osh is. Right? So that was good. Again, 408, this is, you know, the market was strong. 408.71 initially got rejected. If you guys remember, before you guys took the train in the webinar, it got rejected. It went down a dollar and the bulls swallowed up that dip and went higher. Microsoft never confirmed. Meta went, not again, right? 347.50 needs to build. Meta went all the way to 353.60. NVIDIA did not shake off the, you know, the negative note on Edgewater. We caught a great, great bounce off the five-day moving average. And I believe that is, oh no, that's not it. I'm sorry. Shopify 78 needs to build. Here was Shopify. Shopify had a nice little run today. 78 needs to build when almost to, when exactly at the 80. That was a nice little move there. ONON 3150, only went to 32, but nice little pop there. And I believe that is it. So that's it, guys. That's it. Market continues to do well. Hopefully you guys are continuing to do well. Hopefully we continue to do well in the future. Happy, healthy, and most important, solvent if you are having any aspirations of a long-term trading career. Guys, God bless. I will see you all tomorrow. Take care.


e try out the technology it's all open source i can if you're not sure what to pick i can certainly help out with that uh follow us etc but really thank you for being here till the end i'm impressed right uh game game night is certainly a big draw and you can follow me uh on twitter or DM me over there uh the walking group also as an alias so well thank you for listening all that time to me thank you very much and by chance does anybody have any questions we have maybe one or two minutes for one or two questions if not there was a lot of work in this presentation he had a rough slot at the end of the day where people go and try to catch dinner but i think he deserves a round of applause and maybe even if you think he deserves it stand up and give him a standing ovation thank you steve


Hey guys, this is Nate, AKA the Foot Accountant. Welcome back to the channel. We need to talk about an SBC that's going to be coming up here the next week or so in FIFA Ultimate Team. That is the Premier League player of the month, SBC. Pierre Emreck, Obam Yang won last month. His SBC only has five days remaining, as you can see here.  His SBC is going to be going away on Friday of this next week. So that means a perfect opportunity for Jamie Vardy, or whoever is going to win this month's Premier League Player of the Month SBC to come in. We need to talk about some possible investments for that. If you can't see behind my camera, it is Henderson. You don't need to worry about him. He's not going to win. Basically, this week's Premier League or this month's Premier League Player of the Month, it's basically coming down between Vardy and Vardy. Like literally, Vardy is the front runner between all these players. If you look at all their statistics, I don't even know if anybody else that EA nominated has over two goals and Vardy has four goals to his name during the month. Of course, three of those goals coming from the 9-0 win over Southampton. So I think Vardy is basically a shoe-in for this month's Player of the Month. He's going to get a lot of votes. He is an English striker, I mean, from the FIFA community. If we look at all of these cards they have, if we go back to the players, if we look at all of these cards, Gwendolyn might be a good one. William could be a cool card with a big upgrade. But since the fan vote is only like 10 or 20 percent of the actual vote for Premier League Player of the Month, I think Vardy is going to get in because, again, he has the most amount of goals, the highest amount of statistics in the places that matter to win Premier League Player of the Month. So I think Vardy is your clear-cut winner already. That's honestly the thing that we know already about that. So, think of ways that we can invest for this SBC. First of all, I think this SBC, EA has a big opportunity here to make this a very well-priced SBC and make people want to do the SBC. People didn't want to do the Abamian SBC because you're basically, we're barely getting an upgrade over his gold card and it was costing you, it costed about, when the SBC came out, 350,000 coins. Right now it costs about 400K. And his gold card was, I think, 300K at a time or something like that. So it was just about like 75, 50 to 75K more than what his gold card had costed at that current time. And it was like plus one upgrades and that's it. EA has a chance to give us a very good Play of the Month SBC if they give us a very good rating and a good boost on Jamie Vardy. And I honestly think they should, especially because of the route that they had of Southampton, I think that Vardy deserves a pretty beast card. And he has an opportunity to be a pretty special card with 88 pace already, 81 shot, 75 physical, 75 dribbling. If they give him 90 to 91 pace with like 84, 85 shooting, 70 passing, 80 dribbling, maybe 80 physical as well. If they give him like a big boost, like we're talking plus four, plus five boosts, he's going to have almost 90 finishing, his agility and balance could be close to 80, his stamina will be able to 80, aggression will be 90, probably. And his dribbling will be much improved as well. He's just going to be a fast straight line running English Premier League striker. So basically, EA has an opportunity here to give us a very good value and a good value SBC that a lot of people are going to want to do. I think about PK, the PK SBC that is still out at this time of this video is the SBC that we have seen this year has been the most in demand. The most people have done this SBC out of any other SBC for a player in this game, in my opinion. If we get another SBC like this with a very high upgrade, a very big upgrade to a card like Vardy, you're going to see a lot of people do that card because if you think about strikers in the Premier League right now, you kind of have a big price discrepancy between that upper echelon, the upper tier of Premier League strikers and kind of like the lower middle tier. So you have Rashford, who has maintained a high price because he kind of fits into that middle tier, somewhere around like 40, 50,000 coins at the moment, I believe. Yes, he's right around 50,000 coins to this Rashford card. He does have the five star skills. He also has a three star weak foot. He's English. He's fast and he can finish. That is the that is why people use Rashford in this game. He's Manchester United as well. But above that, above Rashford, if you think of the next step up, if you're going to upgrade your striker in your Premier League team, it's probably going to be Aguero or a Bomb Yang. If you go a step up from there, I mean, if you could go to Firmino, but he's more of a Cam, you could go to Sun, but he's really expensive. So you have Aguero, you have a Bomb Yang, you have Kane, who doesn't. It's not really that fast. So most people would probably go to like an Bomb Yang type card or maybe maybe they play like a Mane, a striker or a Salad striker, but a pure striker in the Prem, you have Aguero and you have a Bomb Yang that are above that kind of tier of strikers in the Prem. So there's just not a big and those guys like Aguero is right down here. Like you think is the 200 K Aguero, some like 300 or 200 and something, 1000 coins, which is a pretty big difference. Yes. So Aguero is like 270 K, which is where I thought he was 270, 280 K. And you have Rashford at 40 K. That's like the big difference that we have between Premier League strikers at the moment. So if we throw Vardy in there, if you give him 100 K SBC and you give him a very, very good card, I think a lot of people would go out and do that SBC. So how do we plan for this SBC? That's what you guys want to know. How can we plan for it? What investments can we make to possibly make some coins in this SBC? First things first, thinking of a price range of probably around 100 K for this SBC, I would think that informs if they do like a two or three squad variation, I think that an inform requirement would be very, very feasible. Inform Chilwell and Inform Io's Perez are perfect, perfect informs that you could include on your investing list or your things to invest in for this player of the month, because they're both 81 rated, I believe Io's Perez is 82 rated, excuse me, they're both 82 rated, not 81, they're both 82 rated. They're both from Lester City and they both are informed in the Premier League. So I think these cards are going to be good investments. You're going to want to get them sooner rather than later. They're both right now at 11,000 coins. You might be able to get them for 10 K snipe or on bid for around 10,000 coins. Basically, a discard value. That's about recommend as my investment to you guys. Try to stick around the discard value for those. Those are good investments. The Lester informs any Premier League inform at discard is probably decent as well. But for these Io's Perez and Chilwell, you're probably going to want to sell those in the hype because those are going to rise more in the hype than they would if the SBC actually comes out. And the only reason that they would rise a bunch when the SBC would come out right away is if the SBC was amazing, a huge upgrade and a ton of people went to do it, which I think you're going to have a lot of people that would want to do it anyway, if it's at 100 K, but if they make it like really cheap and it requires an inform, then you might see those prices go up. It just depends on what they price the SBC at and how big of a boost Jamie Vardy gets, but that's a good investment that you probably want to sell in the hype just to be safe and take your coins. I could see that going from right now at like 11 K, maybe all the way up to like 14,000 coins, nice little 3 K increase on those cards right there. Nothing too, too huge, but, you know, it's a possibility. And if the SBC does come out, you have those cards for cheaper. If you want to do that, SBC, I don't think there's as much money to be made in that, though, as there is and maybe investing in some of these Premier League gold cards. We're going to go over here to footpin and check out some of the cheapest Premier League gold cards. That's where you might see the most rise if the SBC is actually very, very good. And you might be able to make the most return on your investment. I'm looking at 84s right here and 84 rated squad right now at the moment does not cost a lot. You know, most of these cards are like three to four K in an 84 rated squad is costing you somewhere around like 30 to 40,000 coins. If you may be thrown in 85 and some 83s, maybe even like 30 K for an 84 rated squad, since high rated golds are kind of low, the SBC fodder golds are lower. But if they throw in some Premier League gold requirements in there or Premier League player requirements into an 83 and 84 or an 85 rated squad for a Vardy SBC, I'm a big fan of some of these guys, especially Ozil, Mares, Gundewan, I would be a very big fan of, especially because he's already in the voting. So some people might think that he somehow has a chance to win Player of the Month and his card right now at 3.8 K is pretty low for a card with that nationality and the links that he has for SBCs. He's going to be a great one that you could look at. Socrates as well would be a good one for chemistry, 4500 coins. You see he was at 35, very, very low last week. If you see this card under 4K, I'm all about that. But this might be more of a place where you can look for this. And the time to buy these kind of these gold cards, maybe 83s, 84s and 85s from the Prem might be after that PK SBC leaves the store, because there's still a little bit of demand for the Chong SBC and for the PK SBC, since both of those cards, I think require 84 or 85 rated squads to complete them. So watch when these go away. Maybe you see a little bit of a downfall in the price of those golds, but you also will be inching closer and closer to the Premier League Player of the Month release date. So I would say for those cards, I would say you just wait because we're probably going to have some Champions League content this week. That means Pax, that means Pax supply SBCs from EA, from UEFA, Marquis matchups and maybe some other SBCs. So when everybody's focused on UCL, maybe you can slide in and make some investments on either some in-forms or some of these gold cards right there. One outside shot investment that could happen since they routed Southampton 9-0. Maybe you look into getting some of these Southampton cards, some of the cheapest Southampton cards you can get. Looks like the cheapest gold Southampton is Armstrong right now. Looks to be about like 700 coins. There's a bed in a wreck as well and Oriole Romeo. If you find a guy, maybe Bertrand will be a decent one. 78 rated left back. Maybe try picking up a few Southampton guys. Maybe not don't just focus on getting this Armstrong since he seems to be the cheapest at the moment. Maybe you focus on some of those guys and stock a couple in your club. That would be a very no risk investment because I think they might throw something in that SBC, including a Southampton player requirement since they demolished Southampton 9-0 in the month of October. That was the big game that they had in October. And that I've already got three of his goals in that game. They went two and one on the month. There was only three games in the Premier League during the month of October. They played Liverpool and lost. They played Lester or they played Burnley and one. They played Southampton and one obviously nine to zero. So those are kind of the things you could look for if you wanted to maybe throw in a Liverpool or a Burnley. Some players in there that you can invest in as well. But EA has been keeping it pretty. They've been keeping it pretty chill with these SBCs. Obviously, with the Pierre Emreca bombing SBC, we had four different parts that kind of make up that SBC with an eighty five rated squad and eighty seven rated squad. Another eighty seven rated squad with one Premier League player and then team of the player one Arsenal player one. So, you know, they're making these SBCs so that it's not pinching a lot of requirements like foot economists would say a pinch point on the market. So they're not really pinching a lot of specific players. I mean, the inform Arsenal players, Arsenal players probably rose for this and then obviously you need some Premier League players as well. If you have an Arsenal side, sixty five chemistry is doable. If you just threw a random Arsenal player in there, then you did the rest of the different league and high rated. So it depends on the chemistry and how much, how many Premier League players they do require. If they do that for Jamie Vardy, some people may think about if they require his gold card. That's a possibility as well. I haven't looked and seen if his gold card price is already up. But I imagine that his gold card doesn't cost too much at this stage of the game. Anyway, looks like it costs somewhere around four thousand coins. So if you wanted to add that as a little investment as well, that could be an investment you look at for Vardy player the month. That would be something that would be very feasible and I could see EA throwing that in, but it is what it is. I don't know how you would say that one player from England, one player from Leicester City and there are many players that fit that option if they were going to do that for an SBC. So they have to really get finicky with it. And that wouldn't really make sense if you're just turning in a four thousand coin player for one SBC. So I don't really see that one as a requirement, but it is a possibility. Again, these are the guys for the player of the month this month. Vardy is definitely the front runner. I think it is going to be Vardy. And I think there's, again, another opportunity here for EA to release a very, very good SBC, the player of the month SBC so far, they've been OK. Team Upuki was cool. Obamien was OK, just not a very good upgrade. And it wasn't very timely for where we were at in early on in FIFA, spending a lot of coins on that SBC. But if you want to throw out some investments for Vardy, if you like investing in the low gold cards, the cheaper range or putting some money into Premier League golds, if you like the SBC fodder investing, this could be something that you do invest in. For the release date, I do think it is going to be on this coming Friday. This coming Friday is is owning up to be a huge day for FIFA content with new icon swaps and with a lot of other stuff we'll talk about in the coming days. But I think that Premier League player of the month could be on there as well. I haven't seen any dates online of an official release date at the recording of this video, so that could change a few things. But in my mind, I'm planning on this being on Friday. So that's kind of what I think about player of the month. I think it's going to be Vardy. I think there's a few good investments. I wouldn't go crazy with it just because, again, we're relying on EA to put out a good SBC. Two really, really good SBCs in the course of like one week would be a lot, in my opinion, for EA and we'll just see what happens. But if you want to make some investments, I want to lay those out for you guys today, help those out, help you guys out to maybe make some moves on the market. If you enjoyed this video, smash a thumbs up on it. Comment down below if you have any questions and subscribe to the channel. If you are new, it's been Nate, The Foot Accountant. Catch you guys later. Peace out.

Hi, I'm Leslie McVane. Welcome to CTN Member Highlights. Today I'm excited to have David LaGrav and Gary Amara here from Playback Theater. Playback Theater, yes, and also Lights Up Improv, which is one of the hats I wear. I teach improv, and I'm also Artistic Director of Portland Playback Theater. And both of those operations are improvisational in nature.  I am. I joined Playback about six months ago, and I've been taking classes with David for about a year and a half now. Oh, so how is it performing with your teacher? Oh, it's great. It's great. He's a great partner to have, because he can recover from almost any mistake that you make. So it's a pleasure. So he creates that comfort level. As a matter of fact, speaking about mistakes, I just have to push in on this, this idea of improv and making mistakes. The improviser really likes mistakes. He likes to go out there and explore and just discover what's out there. And when the mistakes happen, that's okay too. Keith Johnstone, who is like world famous improv guru, says, you know, to have a spectator mind, do it, see what happens. If it falls down, that's great. You learn from that too. So really I've been teaching this for about 20 years. I still feel like I'm scratching the surface, but it's basically, it's not about being clever. It's not about being bright and creative. It's about relaxing, opening up, and discovering what's already there. So when it comes to this party, this improv bash for CTN, benefiting CTN. Which is why we're here today, really. Which is why we're here to talk about that. I'm hopeful to fill the place with people who will work in twos and threes together around the room. Nobody's going to be pressed to perform and do the kinds of games and exercises that typify the improviser's world. It's a lot of fun and people learn to relax, let go, and be themselves. Well you came up with this idea to do this fundraiser party for CTN. That's right. And it's going to be August 27th. August 27th. From 7.30 to 9 o'clock. 7.30 to 9 o'clock. Right here in the CTN studio. Right where we are. Yeah, right where we are. That's right. And I think you've just made me feel a lot better about it. Because I'm a little intimidated. Sure. Absolutely. Well I've seen you in performance. And I see how quick you are. And I'm like, I'm not that quick as we saw earlier when we were testing the mics. So tell us a little bit more about what you're going to be doing. Just to respond to what you're saying. When you watch the improvisers, you may think, oh they're being very quick. But we're all of us quick. If we relax and open, open up, we're simply going to be responding to what happens to us. Just as you are right now, and just as you did in your comments, you were simply responding to what was going on. And now I'm responding, right? And so all we're doing is opening up and responding. And I guess the challenge is to let go of your preoccupations. Just let go of your worries, your concerns. And just be there and see what happens, right? Wow. And that's what improv is all about. It's opening up and then seeing yes to what happens. So yes and becomes like the button that an improviser wears. Because all of improv is simply accepting, validating an idea, and then adding on to it. So I might say, you know, that Larry guy is really lazy. Oh my god, he shows up late to work every day. Yeah, well he's spending his time out on the porch, you know, in his hammock until I think about one in the afternoon. I know. And he doesn't even press any of his clothes. Oh god. You know, I saw a fly land on his nose and it just sat there. I could tell it was bothering him, but he didn't have the energy to just brush the fly away. So lazy. Yeah, he's lazy, right? So all we're doing is, he accepted my offer that Larry is lazy, whoever that is. And he is simply adding on a little bit of information each time.  Exactly. All of what you are and all your history up to this moment in time is brought into the improv. And the stuff that can come out of you, if you can just relax and be here now is really fun. Well it sounds so meditative almost. It is. You know, better than yoga. Yeah, it is. It's very meditative. Clear, relax, and then do the next most obvious thing. Well, why don't we have an example of what you're going to be doing on August 27th from 7.30 to 9. And I'll step off for a minute while you show us. Okay, but before you go, could you give us something that two people might argue about? They might argue about what? Money comes to mind. Money. Okay. Archie, you've got to stop spending money hand over fist. Bullying me is not going to change my behavior. Can't you be a little bit frugal?  I need the things in my life to make me happy.  Forever, forever you're talking about my sister. Are you interested in her? God, can you possibly take a hint sometimes? Had you ever thought of what I might feel in this situation? I know. When I'm feeling right now, I feel our money is running out. Well, just because we're friends and we live together doesn't mean you can tell me how to spend money. Kelly's always pressing you to spend money, isn't she? Love her as I might. She is. She has her needs as well. Maybe you ought to ditch that girl. No, I love her. Okay, okay, but cut down on the money. Please, will you just relax on this? Quit it. Quit spending all that cash. Right. Right. I know. I need to plan for the future. Save a little money. Why don't you just save some money? Time will tell how long we're even going to be on this earth. Why do I need to save? Ugly, ugly, ugly. This is just turning into an ugly argument. Very well. Just drop it and we can go about our day. Why not? After all, we're friends. Exactly. Yes. Zowie, I love working with you. An alphabet scene. That was terrific. Oh my gosh, I was going through the alphabet with you and I was like, they're doing it, they're doing it, they're doing it. So what fun is that? It's a lot of fun. We're quick. Thank you. But if you're concentrating, those things simply come out of you. They just come out. They come out of everybody. I'm excited about this night on August 27th from 7.30 to 9 here at 5.16 Congress Street at CTN. And for more information, you can go to the Improv Party for CTN on Facebook or you can call me at 775-2900-00 extension 201. Thank you. Thank you. It should be fun.
