Why, why, why, why, why, why, why, why, why, why, why should I have expected and hope that the Browns would do anything to help my Ravens out? Baker Mayfield, he had the time of his life today. I mean, he was sitting back there in the pocket making margaritas. He was taking tequila shots. He went on vacation. He went to go visit Tennessee. Then he went back home to Cleveland. Then he came back to Tennessee again. Then he went back to Cleveland because he forgot his wallet.  He threw the ball to I think like nine, 10 different receivers in this game. Now, I know with the Tennessee Titans, they, the news came out today officially. I mean, I thought this was already something that had been said already, but I guess not. But the news today came out officially that Jadevian Clowney, his season was over. And we know for Jadevian Clowney, it has been a disappointing season for him, but, and it hasn't been so sexy on a stat sheet. But I didn't feel like that news would absolutely just drown out the fight in the heart of the Tennessee Titans. Well, at least in the first half, because in the second half, they tried, they were trying, and it was looking like, hold up, these tight, they coming back. They get ready to come back. But then, yeah, that last onside kick, they just couldn't do it. Couldn't put it together. But these Cleveland Browns, boy, wow. And now with this win, they will officially, like no matter how the rest of the season goes, they will officially finish this season over 500. No matter what happens from here on out, because 500 would be eight and eight. They've won nine games. They passed that. The worst they could do would be to go nine and seven. And that would be if they lost every last one of the remaining games. I don't expect them to. I wouldn't be mad if they did because it would help up my Ravens because, you know, we need some help right now. Right now, we on the outside looking in. We window shoppers right now. When it comes to the playoffs, my Ravens are window shoppers because we look in, we like, hey, ooh, them playoffs look nice. Who's on the inside though? Who's inside the store, the playoff store? Oh, the Browns, okay. And they stepped one foot closer inside the playoff store. They one step closer to hitting that cash register and buying that ticket to the playoffs. The Dolphins today, we didn't expect to get help from the Dolphins today because they were playing the Joe Burrill List bingles. And really whoever plays the Joe Burrill List bingles, we don't really expect to get help from them. But the Dolphins, they of course, they won that game. We didn't expect to get, well, we kind of were hoping that we would get help from the Colts today. Well, really from the Texans, from the Texans beating the Colts, but the Colts took care of business. I believe it was like 26, 20, something like that. But the Colts, they won their game. And then a team that we also are fighting with to try to get in the playoffs, we both on the outside looking in like, it's the Ravens and the Raider. They right next to us too. They like, oh man, they'll play all that. That store looks so good. We want to go inside the playoffs store. But they, of course, the Jets literally handed them the game. They were like, no, we're in the winning position, but we don't want to win. We're trying to get that number one overall pick. I don't know what the result of the Jacksonville Jaguars and Vikings game was. I have to look that up. But anyway, back to these Browns, man. Back to these Browns. Wow, they really had to kick us while we were down. How about that? But congrats to them. Congrats. And this was a statement win. This was a statement win because one thing that I had heard about these Browns that I heard a lot of people saying was that, and it's crazy because I see it a lot with, a lot of people say it about the Steelers. I guess it's kind of like an AFC North thing with the two teams that are on top and the two teams that are on bottom, two teams that are on top. What do you always hear about the Pittsburgh Steelers? They overrated. They're the most overrated 11-0 team. They're so overrated, blah, blah, blah. And that's cool. I can understand why people say that, but at the same time, they're 11-0. They're 11-0. So whether they overrated 11-0 or underrated 11-0, they won 11 of their games. They did. Straight up like that. And with the Browns, a lot of people saying, oh, they not as good as they say they are. They don't have a good record against teams with winning records. They don't have a good record against winning teams. These Browns, they ain't all that. They ain't all that. What happened?  It was looking like, oh my goodness, this is going to be a big yikes. And it was a big yikes. Even though, like I said, the Titans, they started scratching and clawing their way back. But they went and beat a team with a winning record, a team that had the exact same record coming into this game that they did. A playoff team for now. And the Titans probably going to be a playoff team.  But the Browns, this was a sort of statement game for the Browns. I know my guy Quincy, he had said it before. He was like, man, the Titans, they came to our stadium last year and they just embarrassed us. It's time that we go and do the same thing to them. And that's exactly what the Browns did. That's exactly what they did. And Browns, they've been rolling. They have been rolling. Baker Mayfield, one thing that I've heard so many people say, and I mean, you could really say this with any quarterback, but specifically with Baker Mayfield, a lot of people saying that Baker Mayfield's problem, it's not his mindset. It's not him going through his progressions. It's the footwork. It's the footwork. It's been Baker Mayfield's biggest problem has been his mechanics. And with mechanics, that can be such a tricky part of the game to fix because, and it's like with a lot of us, with a lot of us, we're used to doing certain things, certain ways for a long period of time, no matter what it is. And when you're so used to doing something a certain way for such a long period of time, when you have to change whatever it is that you are doing, whether you're changing it for the better, hopefully changing it for the better, or you're changing it for the worse, or you're changing it and it's still going to be, give you the same results. When you have to change something, it can be very tricky because you have to change something that you're used to doing, something that comes second nature to you. So with a quarterback, when you have to work on changing their mechanics, that can take a period of time. That can take a little minute because these are quarterbacks. They've been throwing a ball to their receivers for years. They're quarterbacks. That's what they do. They get set a certain way. They release is a certain way. They posture is a certain way. But when you have a coaching staff that's like, hold up, wait a minute, what you've been doing for X amount of years, that's wrong. That needs to improve big time. That can take some time. So but Baker Mayfield in this game, I mean Titans, they certainly helped because they didn't provide any pass rush. But in this game, he was showing what got him to be the number one overall pick. And that's been a big thing with him. And I know what a lot of even a lot of Browns fans have said is that with Baker Mayfield, we would just like if he would just be a game manager. That's all you got to do. Baker Mayfield, just be a game manager. You ain't got to go out and throw for four, five, six touchdowns or anything. No, just just be a game manager. We will like it to where he's passing for maybe 20 to 25 attempts in a game over 30. No, we don't want it. But in this game, he managed the game and he managed to let this game get out of hand on his watch. But in a good way, it got out of hand for the Titans for a while. And this was, was this his best game ever as a pro? I think it might have been. Was this Baker Mayfield's best game ever? I know he had a really, really good game. I think it was the week that OBJ went down. I forgot who they were playing that week, but I think he had a really, really good game then. But this, this may have been his best game ever. So, hey, but these Browns, man, they're not making it easy on the Ravens, who while a lot of people calling the Steelers overrated, some people even calling the Browns overrated. Nobody's saying the Ravens are overrated. This is 6-5, 6-5, 6-5. And right now it's still on the outside looking in. Even if they win against the Cowboys on Tuesday, it will still be on the outside looking in. They need help. We need help. My guys need some help. So, whether it's going to come from the Browns, from the Titans, from the Dolphins, from whoever, we need help and we need it now. But now seriously, congrats Browns on a win against the Titans. A big win. Or like I said, a statement win in this, what's been a really good season for the Browns and Browns fans. I know a lot of Browns fans are just, they are loving this right now because the Steelers are up, which I know Browns fans don't like, need to do Ravens fans or Bengals. Bengals fans kind of like, oh whatever, we used to this, we'd be used to being in the bottom. But Steelers fans are up and Browns are in second place. So, Browns like, hey, they feeling it right now. They're like, oh, we in second place? This, this is what it feels like to have success. And when I say that, I don't mean that as a shot at the Browns at all. But we all know that the Browns, for the longest, they haven't had the success. That's why a lot of Browns fans, they are just so happy right now. They're ecstatic right now. And they are having a time of their lives this football season. Because usually, most times for Browns fans around this time of the year, football season, they're like, okay, well, which pick are we going for now? We're going for number two, number one, number three, number four, which pick are we going to get? But not this season. Not this season. Because like I said, the worst they could do from here on out is nine and seven. That's the worst they could do. And again, it's over 500. So we'll see what happens. Anyway, team keep it clean. Appreciate y'all. I love y'all. And please, NFL teams, give my Ravens some help. Because like the end of this video is, it's exactly where I don't want the Ravens to be when it comes to the playoffs. I'm out. See you.


At IBM Research we're doing work across all aspects of IoT from sensors, how they're connected to the platform, building the platform, and then turning that sensor data into solutions for industries. In order to do this, we have to be able to experiment and understand how these systems are going to work and how they're going to interact with people without actually building out the full solution. We are building what we call a virtual testing platform. At its core, what this means is that we can take some sensors and some people and integrate them into a much larger virtual platform where we're simulating the behavior of the hundreds of thousands to millions of sensors that are in the system. So in collaboration with University College Dublin, our lab has created a platform where we can test out and understand how large-scale sensor systems are going to react in the real world as they interact with humans. There are many possible applications for testing services on our virtual testing platform. Take as an example a car sharing service. A group of friends are going to a concert and want to meet and share a car to get to the event. The car sharing service adapts the meeting place dynamically based on current traffic to ensure that people will not wait for each other too long at the meeting place. So this combination of simulated and real-world feedback can help us understand if the optimization achieved in this service is perceived as reasonable by the users. Until now, cars have been designed solely for the benefit of the owner. In the future, they will be designed to minimize pollution in densely populated areas like city centers or automatically switching between combustion and electric mode. The virtual testing platform allows us to design these protocols and measure driver response and acceptance. Imagine your electric bike being able to detect polluted areas in advance and to help you by increasing the level of assistance to reduce your effort. As a result, your breathing rate will lower and this would mitigate the harmful impact of pollution. The virtual testing platform can be used to connect to the bike and to test how the cyclist would actually react to this new service, investigating the interactions between the cyclists and the bike. Imagine a city where accidents don't cause traffic jams, where each car is being rerouted around obstacles while minimizing the impact for each driver. In some cases where congestion is building, individual cars can be directed through or around an area of limited access and the flow can be maintained without creating knock-on effects downstream. The virtual testing platform can simulate these large-scale environments and networks while providing a way to perform controlled user acceptance tests. This combination of simulated and real-world data generate valuable insights that are critical to system development. These applications of the virtual testing platform are just the tip of the iceberg. By developing the ability to combine real-world experience with virtual testing and simulation, we will be able to bring new IT services to market faster than ever before.

Welcome to Enter Your Nightly, I am Janelle Norville, this edition's top stories. Government holds a national consultation on the reopening of St Lucia's society. St Lucia is lauded for its ability to transition into e-learning during the COVID-19 period and PAHO makes another COVID-19 donation to St Lucia. The Government of St Lucia is continuing its strategic approach to St Lucia's COVID-19 response, which has led to the island's skin management of the crisis and the announced recovery of all 18 confirmed cases. As the Government chats the road to recovery, plans are being shared for the measured and phased approach to reopening St Lucia's society. The framework for reopening was discussed at a national consultation Friday. A five-phase approach is being recommended for the reopening of St Lucia's economy, which includes phase one, A and B, phase two, three, four and five. St Lucia is currently in the third phase, Increased Incremental Operations, which commenced on the 27th of April 2020 and is due to end on the 31st of May 2020. Each phase is being monitored for triggers that call for moving on to the next phase or reverting to the previous phase. Sharon Gardner, Hippolyte of the Performance Management and Delivery Unit in the office of the Prime Minister, explained that the foundation is being laid so that the country can move into the fourth phase. The Command Center has established several goals for this phase, including large stimulation of the private sector and economy, ensuring healthcare resilience by building capacity at hospitals, reinstating some soft social sectors, and the reopening of the tourism sector and the strict protocols defined by a new licensing regime. Gardner, Hippolyte highlighted phase five. Finding our new normal, phase five. What is our goal? International travel to commence with strict protocols, quota and tourism sectors to be able to open up again with very strict protocols, and some of this will be discussed in more detail by the permanent secretary in the Department of Tourism. Steps required in each phase is vigilant screening at our ports of entry, mass testing programs, and continual referments of new standards and protocols. As we continue to develop and each time going into a new phase, we have to make sure that the protocols and the guidelines are constantly being monitored, evaluated, being implemented in all of our sectors, and that they are also being updated in accordance with international best practices. The Ministry of Health and Wellness has instituted and will continue to institute new measures based on the phase and the sectors to facilitate the safe reopening of the sector. Chief Medical Officer Dr Sharon Belmar George explained that one such sector is the education sector. Students of grade six are expected to sit the common entrance examination on the 30th of June 2020, and from five students are expected to sit the CXC examination on the 29th of June 2020, as such they will be allowed to attend school for the month of June and the strict protocols. In this phase that we are now in phase three, our discussions have been on the facilitation of national and regional exams that is the common entrance and the grade six exam. So as we continue collaborating with education, we decided that the rest of the school community would remain closed except for those critical years and those with the practical component. So we have prepared very strict guidelines with the Ministry of Education to ensure that the limited period of instruction is done safely to reduce transmission to facilitate the common entrance exam and to facilitate the CXC exams in the form fives. So we are hoping that we get the cooperation of the various stakeholders with that. Permanent Secretary in the Ministry of Tourism, Information and Broadcasting, Culture and Creative Industries, Donna Lynn Vite explained that a licensing and certification program will be implemented to ensure adherence to standards while mitigating the risk associated with COVID-19, all while maintaining St Lucia's competitiveness in the tourism markets. The persons coming into St Lucia will need to meet the prerequisite of a negative COVID test within 24 hours to 48 hours of travel and we just want to underscore that because we imagine that where we found ourselves at some point in the management of COVID was the importation of cases and so it is very critical for us at the command center and at the various government agencies to ensure that there is a strong management and requirement so that we could minimize risk or importation as much as possible. So if we start to take you through this phase is one we have mentioned the strong education component of the travel community. So a visitor comes to the airport and they would have to present evidence indicating that they are negative for COVID-19. There's also mask physical distancing, temperature screening, a regular sanitization of surfaces, hand washing regime and education of all airports involved and all participants within the chain at airports and the airline community. A five-point guide will be utilized for the reopening of the tourism sector and to guide travel at each step strict protocols will be put in place to ensure the prevention of the spread of the virus. The points include at the check-in airport, on the flight, at the arrival airport, at the hotel and at the departure airport. The government or St Lucia will continue to monitor the situation with the COVID-19 pandemic and respond accordingly. Meantime the director of the Pan American Health Organization says the roadmap to recovery for any country lies in the control of this novel coronavirus. Dr. Carissa Atien says the pandemic has forced us to address three emergencies at the same time, health, social and economic and to be successful a joint approach is needed. Countries must support the economies while building strong social protection networks and embracing evidence-based public health measures that are essential to saving lives. Only when countries have control transmission will there be in a position to implement a well-planned, cautious transition period. During this time countries should continue to focus on health, strengthening surveillance systems, monitoring health services and rapidly responding to any resurgence of the virus while also devising ways to stimulate our region's economy and address poverty. We see a path to recovery in which the health sector is central, both as a guide on how to keep people safe and as a foundation for economic growth and well-being. Dr. Atien notes that the disruptions caused by COVID-19 have shaken economies to their core. The Economic Commission for Latin America and the Caribbean estimates that the Latin American and Caribbean region will contract by 5.3% this year, the biggest drop in over 100 years. The value of exports is expected to fall by 15%, impacting many countries in Latin America and the Caribbean that rely on exporting commodities. Tourism has been greatly affected, further impacting the economies of the Caribbean countries. The sharp rise in unemployment across the region has already pushed families into poverty and more will follow. It is forecasted that 29 million more people will find themselves below the poverty line, the majority of which will be women. Heads of state and ministers of health and finance all face the same dilemma, the same dilemma, how to keep their people safe while also protecting the livelihoods of families and communities. It is a difficult balance to strike, but I dare say not an impossible one. Director of the Pan American Health Organization, Dr. Carissa Atien, and St. Lucia continues to benefit from the collaborative approach with the Pan American Health Organization, details from Anicia Antoine. The Pan American Health Organization, PAHO, has donated personal protective equipment, PPEs, as part of their continuous support to St. Lucia's Ministry of Health and Wellness in responding to the COVID-19 pandemic. Country program specialist at the Pan American Health Organization, Reynolds Uet, presented the donations. We are confident that these PPEs will reach the healthcare workers to protect them from infection of this disease. It is just a part of the contribution that PAHO has made to the development of St. Lucia. In addition to these PPEs, we have conducted training for lab personnel and we have conducted training also in IPC and we are here to continue this support with the Ministry of Health as long as they respond to this disease. So on behalf of PAHO, we take pleasure in handing these personal protective equipment over to the Ministry of Health. Deputy Permanent Secretary of the Ministry of Health and Wellness, Jenny Daniel, expressed gratitude to the Pan American Health Organization for their continuous support towards the battle against COVID-19. We wish to assure you that from our point, we will ensure that those PPEs goes to the persons, the first responders who need them so dearly in the response to the attack from COVID-19. We assure you that they will be used as much as possible to ensure that our citizens are protected and our first responders can perform their duties efficiently and responsibly. Once again, from the Ministry of Health and Government of St. Lucia, we wish to thank you for your partnership during this period as we respond to the COVID-19 pandemic. Their handing over ceremony of the PPEs took place on Monday, May 11th, 2020 at the Ministry of Health and Wellness. From the Government Information Service, I am Anisia Antoine reporting. St. Lucia has been lauded for its ability to transition into e-learning during this COVID-19 period. Hail to San King English Francis of Caricam Newstime. Caricam Secretariat's education expert Dr. Loret Bristol has lauded St. Lucia's vanguard into digital schooling for primary and secondary students amid the coronavirus quarantine. Speaking to Caricam Newstime, the Program Manager for Human Resource Development within the Caricam Secretariat says St. Lucia's launch of formal multimedia schooling demonstrates what the region can achieve in periods of crisis. I want to take the opportunity to congratulate St. Lucia and its announcement in the media gave me a great deal of hope because it's suggesting to us that not just St. Lucia, because I know that our other member states are also already engaged in similar types of activity. So it's not just about celebrating St. Lucia's response, but I think it's about celebrating in the region's response in terms of the educational sector. Still with education, the Council for Human and Social Development has achieved original consensus on the sitting of key examinations. Justine Dunkley-Marcom of Caricam Newstime reports. CSEC, CAPE and CCSLC students will be sitting their examinations in July this year. That was the decision coming out of the first emergency virtual meeting of the Council for Human and Social Development, COSOT Education on Friday. Registrar of the Caribbean Examinations Council CSE, Dr. Wayne Wesley, made a presentation where he explained the administration of the modified exam process for the award of valid grades. He indicated that preserving the integrity of the examinations involved the administration of paper one, school-based assessment, and where applicable additional assessment components, along with appropriate modeling accounting for historical data and teacher-predicted information as important calibration quality check. He said while the proposed revised administration schedule for examinations is July 2020, there was need for a regional consensus considering the impact of COVID-19 and the respective national protocols. The COSOT also agreed to have examinations administered via an e-testing modality in countries that are equipped with the requisite infrastructure. However, where there were infrastructure challenges, candidates would be allowed to sit paper-based examinations. The Council also accepted a proposal from the CSE in collaboration with the UWI to accept CAPE Unit 1 plus previous results to serve as matriculation to the UWI for the next academic year. After tedious negotiations and consultations and on evaluating education and health officials' ability to create a safe environment for students to prepare for and sit the regional examinations, the meeting arrived at a consensus for the exams to be held in July 2020. Informed by CARFA's recommendations and strategies for the safe, phased opening of schools, ministries of education guided by national health officials will adapt respective national conditions to ensure students, teachers, and staff can safely prepare for the July sitting. And this is NTN Nightly, up next, Primus Hutchinson with the NTN Novell of Quayall. COVID-19 is a new pandemic disease as declared by the World Health Organization. It is transmitted directly by respiratory droplets when an infected person coughs or sneezes, or indirectly through rubbing the face with contaminated hands. There is still no specific treatment of vaccine against COVID-19, and as such, the farming community should adhere to some special recommendations. Ensure that firm clothing and gear is clean. Wash hands thoroughly before harvesting crops.  Use all safety precautions when transporting crops to the markets and depots, such as handling crates and crops with only clean hands, and covering sneezes and coughs with a tissue or the inner arm to ensure body fluids or droplets don't get on produce and washing hands or using hand sanitizer after using the tissue. More than ever before, your important role as gatekeepers of St. Lucia's nutritional, health, and food security should be taken seriously. When you exercise these precautions, you not only safeguard your health, but also continue to allow all St. Lucia's access to freshly grown fruits, vegetables, and other local crops. Remember, it is our responsibility to ensure our nation eats fresh St. Lucia's best. Welcome back. We join Primers Hutchinson for the NTN Nouvelle, a Quayol. Government announced a date to start a normal operation. During the consultation, a financial establishment already approved by Prime Minister Alain Shasney. If ministers have a touristic, they will have Dominic Fidi, the code recessional seller. If you go to Permanent, the Minister of Touristic, Donald Fidi, Madame Sharon Gardner-Hippolit, who is the director of the US Department of Protection and the Prime Minister, and Madame Nancy Chas, who is the director of the Special Initiatives. I would like to thank the US Department for the information on the situation of COVID-19, Calton Cook's Cereal, and explain this to you. This is a demand that is very high in the international space. This is the Executive Officer, Export St. Lucia, who makes a statement on this. Export St. Lucia is an agency that is responsible for facilitating the exportation of fruits here in our country, including the international ecosystem. Given the discussion of the public, as well as the NTN, Ma'am Zelle Sonneto-Daniel, who is the Executive Officer of the US Department of Protection, declares that the US Department of Protection is responsible for facilitating the exportation of fruits here in our country, especially fruits. So, you are responsible for the exportation of fruits here in the US. You really like fruits here in the US. So, you want to open a container of fruits here in the US, exactly like this. You really like the local culture here in the US. You like the local culture here in the US. Everyone likes fruits here in the US. So, for us, if we can do it, everyone can really know about the statistics here in the US. It's about agriculture. Ma'am Zelle-Daniel explains also, Export St. Lucia, to assist in a lot of ways. It's not just about agriculture. It's also about helping people to assist in their businesses. My name is Shwazi. I am a craftsman. I am an artist. I do paintings here. I am a shy service. I am talking about a village called Denry, which is a Denry segment. So, Export St. Lucia, I work here in the Denry segment, as a musician, to help people to contract their works at least here. So, I want to help people to do music here in the US. Music is a business. It's a business. It has a lot of contract by the musician and the officer. We have a musician from Denry Segment who is performing in Miami, Canaveral. The coronavirus has affected the economy. Globally, the program of agricultural work has affected the services of the economy. In recognition of the economic application of this program, we have eight travel agencies. The commission for this country is OECS. You work very hard and the services of agricultural resources management, the foreigners, travel services such as Kan-Edge, the Canadian government, and Swing Airlines to make it easier for them to work in this country. In Canada, I was born on May 12, 2020. But before this work was done, all these regulations that have affected the coronavirus were established. These regulations were made in the same country by the Ministry of Work and the Ministry of Health and Police in Canada. Even in the same country, these services were made in collaboration with the Canadian government. Among these regulations, before this work was done, they were made in Canada. You have to be able to test the services of the Canadian government. There were also various equipment such as masks, gloves and sanitizers. You have to quarantine for 14 days in Canada. You have to find all your money during your quarantine. You also have to be fully aware of all the needs of COVID-19. In addition, you have to be able to sanitize your work in a representative way. You also have to add a group WhatsApp. I would like to thank the Director General for the organization. I would like to congratulate all of you who have been able to travel and make this work possible. Especially in a time when the situation of your work is critical. I would also like to thank all these countries and governments who have participated in this work. I would like to thank all of you for your support. I would also like to thank all of you who have participated in this work. I would like to thank all of you who have participated in this work.


Hey, welcome back everybody. Jeff Frick here with theCUBE. It's International Women's Day 2018. There's stuff going on all around the world. We're up at the Accenture event in downtown San Francisco. 400 people at the Hotel Niko, lot of great panels, a lot of interesting conversations, a lot of good energy, really about diversity and inclusion, and not just because it's the right thing to do, but it actually drives better business outcomes. Hmm, how about that? So we're really excited to have our next guest. It's Vivian Ming. She's a founder and chair of SoCo's Labs. Vivian, welcome. It's a pleasure to be here. Yeah, so what is SoCo's Labs? SoCo's Labs is a think tank. It's my fifth company because apparently I can't seem to take a hint. And we are using artificial intelligence and neuroscience and economic theory to explore the future of what it means to be human. So who do you work with? Who are some of your clients? So we partner with enormous and wonderful groups around the world. For example, we're helping the Make-A-Wish Foundation help kids make better wishes. So we preserve what's meaningful to the child but try and make it even more resonant with the community and the family that's around them. We've done wonderful work here with Accenture to look at what actually predicts the best career and life outcomes and use that to actually help their employees, not for Accenture's sake, but so that 425,000 people get to live better, richer lives. Right, right. That's interesting because that's really in line with that research that they released today. What are these factors? I think they identified 40 that have a significant impact and then a subset of 14 within three buckets. It's very analytical. It's very Accenture. I love numbers. By training, I'm a theoretical neuroscientist which is a field where we study machine learning to better understand the brain and we studied the brain to come up with better machine learning. And then I started my first company in education and to me it's always about not even just generating a bunch of numbers but figuring out what actually makes a difference. What can you do in education, in mental health, in inclusion or just on the job that will actually drive someone to a better life outcome? And one of those outcomes is they're more productive and they're more engaged on the job, more creative. A big driver behind what I do is the incredible research on how many, it's called the Lost Einstein's research. The Lost Einstein. The Lost Einstein. Okay. So a famous economist, Raj Chetty at Stanford, just to release through her paper on this, showing that kids from high wealth backgrounds are 10 times as likely as middle class peers to, for example, have patents or to have that big impact in people's lives. In our research we find the same thing but on the scales of orders of magnitude difference. What if every little kid in Oakland or in Johannesburg or in a rural village in India had the same chances I had to invent and contribute? That's the world I want to live in. It's wonderful working with a group like Accenture, the Lego Foundation, the World Bank that agree that that really matters. Right. It's just interesting. The democratization theme comes up over and over and over and it's really not that complicated of a theme, right? If you give more people access to the data, more people access to the tools and make it easier for them to manipulate the data, you're just going to get more innovation, right? It's not brain surgery. You get more people contributing to what we sometimes call the creative class which, you know, right now probably is about 1.5% of the world population. Maybe 150, 200 million people. It sounds like a big number but we're approaching 8 billion. What would the world be like? Not if all of them. Just imagine instead of 200 million people, it was 400 or it was a billion people. What would the world be like if a billion people had the chance to really drive the good in our lives? So on my panel, I had the chance to throw out this line that I was quoted as saying once. Ambitious men have been promising us rocket ships and AI and self-driving cars but if every little girl had been given the reins to her own potential, we'd already have them. And we don't talk not just about every little girl but every little kid that doesn't have the chance. You know, if even 1% of them had that chance, it would change the world. So you must be a happy camper in the world that we're entering today with all the massive compute, cloud delivering compute and store to anyone. I mean, all those resources asymptotically approaching zero cost and availability via cloud anywhere in this whole big data revolution, AI and machine learning. I love it, I mean, I wouldn't build AI which I'm a one-trick pony in some sense. I do a lot of different work but there's always machine learning under the hood from my companies and my philanthropic work. But I think there is something important as amazing a tool as it is. The connectivity, the automation, the artificial intelligence as a perhaps dominant tool of the future is still just a tool. These are messy human problems. They will only ever have messy human solutions. But now me as a scientist can say, here's a possible solution. And then me as an entrepreneur or philanthropist can say, great, now with something like AI we can actually share that solution with everybody. So give us a little bit of some surprise insights that came out of your panel. Fortunately, I was not able to attend as I had her doing interviews. So, you know, I would say the theme of our panel was about role modeling. So I was the weirdo outlier on the panel. So we had Oakland mayor Libby Schaaf. We had the CFO of the Warriors. Jennifer was great. And we talked about simply being visible and doing the work that we do in AI, in sports, in politics, that alone changes people's lives, which is a well-studied phenomenon. The number one predictor of a kid from an underrepresented population taking a scholarship, you know, believing they can be successful in politics is someone from their neighborhood went before them and showed them that it was possible. And seeing somebody that looks like them in that role. And so seeing a CFO of the Warriors one of the great sports team in the world today is, you know, this little Filipino woman to put it in the way I think other people would perceive her and realize, no, she does the numbers, she drives the company and it's not despite who she is. It's because she brought something unique to the table that no one else had plus the smarts and made a difference. To see Libby Shaff get up there with a lot of controversy right now in the bigger political context and show that you can make a difference when people marginalize you, when I went out and raised money from my first company, I had venture capitalists literally pat me on the head and treat me like a little girl. And what I learned very quickly is there are always gonna be someone that's gonna see the truth in what I can bring. Go find those people, work with them and then show the rest of the world what's possible. Right, it's pretty interesting. Robin Matlock is a CMO at VMware. We do a lot of stuff with VMware and they put in a woman in tech lunch thing a couple years ago and we were talking and it was interviewing her. She said, you know, I never really took the time to think about it. I was just working my tail off and doing my thing and you know, suddenly here I am, I'm CMO of this great company and then it kind of took her a minute and somebody kind of say, wait, you need to take advantage of that opportunity and that platform to help others that maybe weren't quite so driven or are looking for those role models to say, she looks kind of like me, maybe I want to be the CMO of a big tech company. Well part of what's amazing, you know, I get to work in education and workforce and part of what's amazing, whether you're talking about parents or the C-suite or politicians is a lot of that role modeling comes just from you being, go out, do good work in the world. But for some people, you know, there's an opportunity that doesn't exist for a lot of others. I'm a real outlier. I was not born a woman. I went through gender transition. It was a long time ago. And so for most people like me, being open about who you are means losing your job. It means not being taken seriously. And anyway, I mean, the change over the last couple of years has been astonishing. Crazy, right? But part of my life is being able to be that person. I can take it. You know, my companies have made money. My inventions I've come up with have literally saved lives. No one cares, in a sense, who I am anymore. That allows me to be visible. It allows me to just be very open about who I am and what I've experienced and been through and then say to other people, it's not about me. It's not about whether I'm happy. It's about whether I'm serving my purpose. And I believe that I am. And does anything else about me really matter in this world? It really seems as interesting kind of subtext to diversity inclusion. Not so much about your skin color or things that are easy to classify in your tax form. But it's really more just being your whole you and no longer being suppressed at the fit in a mold, not necessarily that's good or bad, but this is the way we did it. And thank you.  We hired you. Here you go. Here's your big stack of regs. Here's your desk. And we expect you to wear this to work. But that to me seems like the bigger story here that it's the whole person because there's so much value in the whole versus just concentrating on a slice. You know, it's really interesting. Again, there's another area where I get to do hard numbers research. And when I do research, I'm talking looking at 122 million people and building models to explain their career outcomes and their life outcomes. And what we find here is one, everybody's biased. Everybody. I can't make an unbiased AI. There are no unbiased rats. The problem is when you refuse to acknowledge it and you refuse to do something about it. And on the other side to quote a friend of mine, everybody is covering for something. Everybody has something in their life that they feel like compromises them a little bit.  And I used to be one of them, so I try and take it easy. It is, the truth is, every one of them is covering for something also. And if we can say again, it's not about me, which amazingly actually allows you to be you. It's not about what other people think of me. It's not about whether they always agree with everything I say, or that I agree with what my boss says. It is about whether I'm making a difference in the world. And I've used that as my business strategy for the last 10 years of my life. And even when it seems like the worst strategy ever, you know, saying no to being chief scientist after, you know, fortune 50 company one after another, every time my life got better and my success grew. And it's not just an anecdote. Again, we see it in the data. So you build companies around principles like that. Who are you? Bring that person to work. And then you own the leadership challenge of, and I'm going to let that person flourish. And I'm going to let them tell me that I'm wrong. They got to prove it to me, but I'm going to let them tell it to me and give them the chance. You build a company like that. You know, what's clear to me is over the next 10 years, the defining market for global competition will be talent, creative talent. And if you can't figure out how to tap the entire global workforce, you cannot compete in that space. The whole workforce and then the whole person within that workforce. It was really interesting. Jackie from Intel was on the panel that I got to talk to see it.  Undeniable, measurable impact. Be visible. Have data to back it up. And of course, be tenacious, which is good career advice all the time. But, you know, it's now when, you know, because before a lot of people didn't have that option or they didn't feel they had the option to necessarily be purpose driven or be their whole self. It's not that they get thrown out on the street and companies weren't as free. Still not that. Not that. You get it. So it is this new opportunity, but they have to because they can't get enough people, can't get enough talent. It's really about ROI. This is not just to do the right thing. If you, even if you look at it from a selfish standpoint, there is the entire rest of the professional world competing for that traditional pipeline to get into the company. So being different, being you, it's a, I mean, forgive me for putting it this way, but it's a marketing strategy, right? This is how you stand out from everyone else. One of my companies, we built this giant database of people all over the world to predict how good people were at their job. And our goal was to take bias out of the hiring process. And when I was the chief scientist of that company, every time I gave a talk in public, 50 people would come up afterwards and say, what should I do to get a better job? And what they really meant was, what should I write on my resume? You know, how should I position myself? What's the next hot skill? And my advice, which I meant genuinely, even though I don't think they always took it as such, was do good work and share it with the world. Not just my personal experience. We see it again and again in these massive data sets. The people that have the exceptional careers are the ones that just went out there and did something because it needed to get done. Maybe they did it inside their last job.  And that got noticed. So, you know, again, just sort of selfishly, why compete with the other 150 million people looking for that same, you know, desirable job when the person that you are, I know it's terrifying. It is terrifying to put yourself out there, but the person you are is what you are better at than everyone else in the world. Be that person. That is your route to the best job you can possibly get. By rule, right? You're the best you can be, but by rule you're not as good as being somebody else. Sounds like a corny line, but the science backs it up. That's great. All right, Vivian, I could go on for a very long time, but unfortunately we're going to have to leave it. There, really enjoyed the conversation, and thank you for spending a few minutes with us. All right, she's Vivian. I'm Jeff, you're watching theCUBE from the Accenture Women's Tech event in downtown San Francisco. Thanks for watching.


Hello, welcome to SSuritech, so we'll decide and this is continuation of SQL Server Performance Tuning. So today we gonna discuss about SQL Page Splits. In the last video of this video series, we have discussed about SQL pages. If you haven't watched, so I would strongly require to watch that video where you can understand about the SQL pages. So let's start with SQL Page Splits. So what is Page Split? So Page Split occurs on SQL pages when a row is required to insert or update into certain page and page doesn't have enough space for this operation. When it happens, Page splits into two pages and some data from page 1 will move to page 2. Next is, this involves the normal IO of inserting a row but the same time updating indexes as well hence it takes a lot of IO. It is certain amount of page splits is normal and expected but too many page splits cause the performance issue. So how we can avoid these page splits, we will discuss in this video. So as we can see, we have two pages, page 1 and page 2. This is our initial page and page 1 contains 1, 2, 3, 5 and 6 and this page 1 is full and page 2 would contain 7, 8, 9, 10 and 11. And we want to insert 4 that is new data into the table. Then this should go in page 1 according to the index. And as we can see, page 1 doesn't have the space. So page 1 will be split into two parts, page 1.1 and page 1.2. So page 1.1 will have 1, 2, 3 and 4 that is our new data and 5 and 6 will move to second page that is page 1.2 and page 2 will have the same. So this is the basic idea about the page split. So here we have few key points. First is trace on 3604. So what is this? So it is used to send the output to the log and this statement is used to redirect the output to the client executing the command. So we will see in the action in this video. Next is dbcc-pace and dbcc-ind. So these two commands are used to find out if page split occurs. For example as we can see dbcc-pace, so here we need to specify database name, then file number, then page number, then print option. So in print option we can specify 0, 1, 2 and 3 according to our requirement. So here as we can see print option 0. So it print just the page header as we have discussed, page would have 3 sections, page header, data row and offset. Next is if we will specify 1 then it will display page header and per page hexadecimal dump. Then 2 page header plus whole page hexadecimal dump. Next is 3 that is page header and detail per row interpretation. So go to on sequence of management studio where you can see how page split occurs. As we can see this is the script and here I just want to check if table exists or not. If table exists then I just want to drop the table. So let me drop the table, command executed successfully. Now I just want to create this table. So as we can see this table has two columns name and team and name would have 500 bytes and team would have 500 bytes. So it would have total 1000 bytes for each row. So let me execute this query to create the table. So table created successfully. Now let me insert a report on this table. So we can insert one row affected. Now we can check yes data inserted successfully. Now this is the command where we can find the information about the page, how many pages we have. We can also check the page type over here. So let me execute this query. So as we can see this is the partition number partition id this is the page type. So this is 10 and 1. As we have discussed in previous video page 10 for imf page and page type 1 for data page. So this is for data page and page id is 2488. So let me copy this and go to on this query. And here as we can see trace on here we need to specify the page number. So this is our page number. Now once we want to execute this we have to use the trace on. Otherwise let me execute this it will not going to return any output. So first of all we need to dvcc trace on then I just want to execute this. So here we can get the information about the page. So go down. So this is the page header as we have discussed section 1 go down and this is the data page as we have discussed section 2 and it would have the information. So as we can see Virat Kohli as we have inserted one record on this. So this is Virat Kohli. Now go down second column is India. So we are getting the India. Now we can go down. And this is offset of the table. So we have three sections and by using this dvcc command we can check the three sections. But here we have only a single page. Now if I want to insert some record on this. So let me insert few record on this table because initially we have only one record on this table and it would have only 1000 bytes. So let me execute this query data should be inserted in this table and we can check the data. So now we have 9 records it means 9000 bytes. So 9000 bytes data shouldn't contain in a single page. So page split should be there. Now we can check by using dvcc command. So this is the command we need to execute. And here as we can see this is page 1 and this is page 2. So for this page we can check the page type is 1 and page type is 1. It means both are data pages. So now go to on dvcc page command and execute the query. Now here we can check it will have the Virat Kohli that is fine. India that is also fine. Second record is Emersoni that is good. India that is good. Third is Juraj that is also good. Then India that is fine. Glenn Maxwell Australia that is also fine. And here we have James Michael Anderson that is also fine. Then England that is good. Alastair Cook that is also good. Then England then under Russell Weston Diz. So we have all these data. Now let me execute our selected statement and here we have data up to under Russell. So here so these 7 records are available in this page. So in second page it should have the Chris Gale and 5 duplicates. Go to on the dvcc command and this time I just want to change the page number that is 2489. Let me execute this query and here go to on the data pages. Inside this data we can see Chris Gale that is fine. Next should be duplicates. So go here 5 duplicates. So these 2 records are moved into second page. So as we can see page splits occurred and few data from page 1 is moved to page 2. So here as we can check for dvcc page here we can specify print option that is 0. In this dvcc page for 0 let me execute this query. So this should have only page header. Now it's fall down and we can see this is page header and it shouldn't contain any other information for 0. As we have checked for 1 and we can also check for 2. So it will contain the hexadecimal dump. So this is our page and page number go down page header that is also fine. Inside this data as we can see we have some hexadecimal dump. So this is the hexadecimal dump with the data. Now we can check for 3 and let me execute and this is our page then go down page header that is fine. In the data page we have Chris Gale but here as we can see it has few more information. This is our page number and it has the information like jam allocated and primary records, memory dump and many more information. So this will be used if required. So I hope you have understand how SQL pages are splits into 2 pages. So if you have still any doubt you can comment on this video so I will respond for the same.

Remember a Hallmark card when you carry enough to send the very best. It's an outstanding story, chosen by one of the world's best known... James Hilton, tonight on our Hallmark Playhouse we present our own dramatized version of one of the world's best known stories, Cinderella. Nobody knows who wrote Cinderella, perhaps people made it up. People who for thousands of years have wished for good luck and that their dreams would come true. Anyhow, the Cinderella story in one form or another has been told countless times. So we tonight are in good company. Especially because to star as Cinderella we have chosen one of Hollywood's most adorable actresses, Judy Garland. And now a word about Hallmark cards from Frank Goss before we begin the first act of Cinderella. There are Hallmark cards for every memorable occasion on your calendar. For birthdays, anniversaries, holidays. Yes, for every occasion that calls for remembrance, for a friendly greeting, a word of good cheer, an expression of sympathy. There is a Hallmark card that says just what you want to say, the way you want to say it. And that identifying Hallmark on the back, well that says you cared enough to send the very best. Now Hallmark Playhouse presents Cinderella, starring Judy Garland. It belongs as much in our own days in the past. We still have pumpkins, princes, fancy dress balls, wicked stepmothers. Although I must say the glass slipper craze is somewhat on the way. So Cinderella is not necessarily a child from the misty days of Shakespeare or King Arthur. She might be that attractively modern young lady you see walking into McCloskey's shoe store. May I help you? I'd like a pair of shoes exactly like the ones I have on. Well, frankly, Miss, I can't tell just what style these are. They're so worn down, I really can't tell. Well, I suppose you think I don't have any better shoes to wear. Oh, no, I didn't say that. No doubt you've heard of Lucinda Brown, the well-known woman novelist. I can't say that I have. Is that one of your own books you've got there? No. Please don't look at that. Cinderella. I'm just reading it for research. I've got nothing against Cinderella. I can't quite read your size, Miss Brown. Four double A. Be careful. Don't poke your finger through the sole. This right one is a little thin. Well, let's see now. I think I can give you a pretty good match. Yes. You know, it isn't every day I get to try a shoe on a well-known novelist. Well, I'm not really such a well-known novelist. Not yet, anyway. You will be. I'm sure of it. You've got a light inside you. A light? Yes, it shines right out through your eyes. Is that so? What a perfectly nice thing to say. I'll take these shoes. Fine. They're a bargain, too. $6.40. $6? Oh, but they used to be only three-something. Well, I guess you'll have to charge it. We have to clear these things through our credit department. You mean Lucinda Brown's credit isn't good? Oh, I didn't say that. I guess that makes it pretty clear where I stand with McCloskey's shoe store. Miss Brown, if you're... I would sooner go barefoot than give you $6.40 for this ratty pair of oxfords. And when my name is mentioned in the same breath with Ernest Hemingway, I assure you both of us will take our shoe business elsewhere. Good day.  Oh, I beg your pardon. Well, I... Oh, dear. It's not raining. I'm afraid it is. Your feet will be soaked in these old shoes. Oh, to tell you the truth, Mr... The guy's around the shoe store. Call me Joe. Joe, you were perfectly right not to let me charge these shoes. I'm practically... Well, I had a story I was sure they'd buy for Real Romances magazine, but the editor says they want sordid realism. Everything I write seems to come out like Cinderella. And that's why you're reading it? Well, I've got to find out what I'm writing wrong so I can write something right, instead of subconsciously stealing from Cinderella. Tell me, couldn't I buy just one shoe? Yeah, well... You see, I think I can just about make $3.20. But we can't break out the pair. Here, take the money. Just a minute, Miss Brown. You're awfully nice, Joe. Goodbye. Hey, hey, come back with that shoe! You know what you are, Lucinda?  Oh, no, you're not, Lucinda. You paid for what you took. The shoes were $6.40 a pair. You gave the man $3.20 for one. Besides, you left your old shoe. That's honest. Well, sort of honest. No, it's not, Lucinda. That nice young man in the shoe store is going to get into terrible trouble on account of you. You stole from him. The same as you've stolen from Cinderella. Nonsense! How can I steal from a story I've never read? Until now. Once upon a time, there was a little girl named Cinderella. And she lived with her stepmother and two stepsisters who made her fetch and carry and do all the drudgery about the house. I know exactly how she must have felt. Could you bring in the wood and sweep the mat? Yes. Polish the floor and feed the cat? Yes. And sew the plume on your sister's hat? I'm sorry, I didn't have time for that. Lazy girl. And what have you been doing with your time? Well, I cleaned the garret and swept the hall, washed the dishes, wound the clock and beat the carpets from wall to wall and stitched the hemp in your Sunday frock. What neglected the plume for your sister's hat? I guess I just couldn't find time for that. Cinderella! Oh, sister calls. What do you do? Cinderella! Now go to her. I can't go to both of them. What shall I do? Don't stand there as if you were nailed to the floor. I wish someone's knocking. Go answer the door. It was a messenger from the king. Can I? And perhaps if we friend you with ruffles and lace, his highness won't bother to look at your face. There isn't a doubt you both were in hiding when looks were passed out. But we'll deck you with diamonds and sapphires and such and none of the ball will... Much. Stepmother? Well, what is it, Cinderella? What should I wear to the ball? As you are. We cannot be bothered by poor Cinderella's who think they're entitled to dress just as well as their sisters who never do housework at all. Now hurry up, girls. We'll be late for the ball. I wish that I really could go and I wish I could wish it were honestly so. I could give you three guesses and give you another, but you never would guess. I'm your fairy garden fooled me. I guess you were that from the shape of your comical, conical hat. You don't think I look like a witch? Oh, not at all. The witches and I are always getting each other's mail, you know. They're but bothers to tell witches' witches from fairy godmothers. Oh, but enough of this chit-chat and sociable ginning. Tell me, why do you cry when you ought to be grinning? Well, fairy godmother, I wanted so much to go to this ball at the Royal Palace, but my stepmother says I'm nothing but a scurry maid to be kept in the kitchen. This, this, gonna double poo-poo. I know positively a plan that will do. Now stand there, your toes. We'll see what my magic can do for your clothes. I'll flourish my wand with a fiddle-ding-dee, african dabra and a E.T.C. Physical, what have you done? Look in the looking glass, that would be fun. The girl dressed for the ball. Just as Zele and Bella won't know me to get to the Royal Palace, good fairy godmother. Oh, oh, I forgot all about that. Do you have a pumpkin handy? Well, here's a plump pumpkin I've saved for a pie. I'll make it into a coach in a blink of an eye. I believe it just climb in and round. Who will draw the carriage? My wand will invite a few magical forces to alter these mice into six, kind of you a coachman or two with livery and wings. Oh, these lizards will do. They're the fishmen that lean. You'll arrive in a stout... Uh, one thing, fairy godmother, is it discreet to dance at a ball with no shoes on my feet? What? Dear, dear, dear, dear, how careless of me. Give you some footwear that none can surpass. To extremely come true, fairy godmother, the magic will last until midnight and then your galma horses and coachmaness carries my deer. It will stroke of midnight when all disappears. I promise you, fairy godmother, I'll leave the palace before midnight. And thank you for all of your kindness. Thank you from the very bottom. We're in the second act of Cinderella starring Judy Garland. You'll agree there are a great many letters and even just notes that you'd like to write but just never get around to writing. It's because it isn't easy to express many of the thoughts we would like to convey. Cards have made it easy for us to carry out our friendly impulses. Easy to say the gracious word to send a kindly message. For they have created personal greetings. They have put into words the thoughts and feelings that are often so difficult to express. For each friend, each loved one, for each occasion, there is a hallmark card to say just what you want to say, the way you want to say it. And the makers of hallmark cards realize that we buy greeting cards only to send to others. For ourselves we might be content with less, but for our friends only the best will do. So all hallmark cards are created to one standard, only the finest of paper and craftsmanship, only the most beautiful colors, only the perfect words. And people know this. Just ask your friends as I've asked mine what name they think of in greeting cards when they want to send the very best. See if they don't answer immediately, hallmark cards. They look for that hallmark on the back of every card because they carry enough to send the very best. Now back to James Hilton in the second act of Cinderella starring Judy Garland. Down outside the window of her little walk-up flat, Lucinda Brown is curled up on her bed wearing one old shoe and one new. She is reading with deep attention, not one of her own stories which nobody ever buys, but an adventure that will delight the world as long as there are children in it. The story of Cinderella. At the Royal Palace, Cinderella climbed up the great spiral staircase. Her little glass slippers seemed to tinkle a tune against the marvel steps. At the top of the staircase, she heard the swell of music from the ball. But when Cinderella entered the ballroom, everything stopped. All of the guests in the ballroom were speechless with awe at the lovely and delicate princess they saw. Cinderella, for her part, was just as impressed, for she'd never seen people so fancily dressed. There were elegant earls and debonair dukes sporting the latest in powdered parukes, baronettes, coronettes, princesses' crowns, the marquis's smiles and the dowager's frowns. She caught just that glimpse of Gisella and Bella who never suspected their maid Cinderella had blossomed so bravely from cinders and shyness. Oh, look, that must be the young prince. It's his highness. Cinderella was quite terrified, for she'd never met a prince and had even the slightest idea of what to do. So she sank to her knees in a curtsy of loyalty, exactly what young girls should do before royalty. Good evening, Your Highness. May I have the pleasure of this dance with you? I shall be deeply honored, Your Highness. Let the music commence.  Though I'm sorry to say that I don't... For this evening, I think I must pass the princess whose slippers are made out of glass. Your party, I cannot describe how sublime it is. But tell me, I beg you, exactly what time it is. Only ten after ten, and time for another dance. It's scarcely eleven. Come dance in romance with me, lovable lass. Little princess whose slippers are made out of glass. Why so frightened of midnight? You present at the ball, lass.  The princess who wore it delighted my eyes, but she's quite disappeared. Would you try it for size? For the girl who can wear it will dance at my side, my beautiful, beautiful princess and bride. Bella, pull your toes together and make the shoe fit. Fizz, gizella, and squeeze. My dear ladies, this squeezing won't do. If the shoe fits the foot, then the foot fits the shoe. Oh, how sad that my daughters should both be denied a seat on a throne. They cost their feet not too wide. I take it there are no other young ladies in this household. There's Cinderella. Who? Our kitchen maid. She'd cover you over with Cinderdust. Even so, my dear lady, I think I should try the shoe on her foot. Not a chance must slip by. She sleeps in a room at the top of the stairs. With your kindest permission, I'll look for her there. And so the prince climbed the steep stairs to the garret room where Cinderella slept. And he knocked on the door. But I've got something for you. Let me come in. Excuse me, Joe. You know the funniest thing? I was reading Cinderella where the prince comes to try the glass slipper on her foot, you know? And he knocks on the door, and just then you knock. Well, I don't have a glass slipper. But I do have a shoe that you can see straight through. How'd you find me? Just like the prince in your story from your shoe. Look. Oh, the rejection slip from Real Romances magazine. I stopped that inside my shoe to keep my stocking off the sidewalk. It's lucky the editor had your address on the rejection slip. You see, I wanted to give you the other new shoe. Oh, you can't. You're getting trouble. What will Mr. McCloskey say? Miss Brown, I've got some news for you. I'm Mr. McCloskey. No. A junior. And it seems to me you ought to stop writing Cinderella stories. It's a lot more fun living them. How can I?  Instead of Miss Lucinda Brown. All right. Then, appoint me your private and personal Prince Charming. With the exclusive right to take you dancing on Thursday nights. Which this just happens to be. Oh, I'd love to, Your Highness. You know, I was beginning to think that stories like Cinderella were strictly once upon a time. But I guess a girl can still find a Prince Charming nowadays, even in the shoe store. And you never can tell how a thing like this will wind up. Oh, yes. Yes, you can. These stories always end the same way. And they live happily ever after. The story of Cinderella. We can read it or hear it. Then go back to our work at a world with renewed spirits. Not outwardly changed, but with a little softer expression around our eyes, a little warmer glow in our hearts. It's the same with greeting cards. They bring a lift to the heart and spirit that's as refreshing as a child's flight into fairyland. Because they show that someone cares, we can face whatever lies before us with renewed faith and courage. That's why greeting cards have come to mean so much to Americans. We're a busy people and impulsive people and a friendly people. And so we find greeting cards to our liking. For many years now, the American people have singled out hallmark cards for a special liking. Perhaps because they do say what we want to say, the way we want to say it. And that's why so many folks recognize that hallmark on a back of a card means you cared enough to send the very best. Here again is James Hilton.  Thank you. You're very nice to say so, Mr. Hilton. I was thrilled when I was asked to play Cinderella on the hallmark playhouse tonight. You know, I've always felt I got my first big break in the Wizard of Oz, and ever since then I've loved playing in fantasy. And how well I remember you're singing that wonderful song over the rainbow. You were just a little girl then, Judy. Well, I guess I still feel like that sometimes. For instance, whenever I buy one of your hallmark cards, I always pick out the ones that are whimsical and gay. I just think they're more fun. Oh, that reminds me. Tomorrow I must get a card of congratulations to send to one Mr. James Hilton. To me, Judy? Yes, sir. I just heard your new book, Morning Journey, will be off the press February 20th. So congratulations are certainly in order. Well, thank you, and you'll make sure it's a hallmark card, won't you, Judy? You can bet on that, Mr. Hilton. Now, tell us, what have you planned for the hallmark playhouse next week? Next week on Washington's Birthday, we shall present Maxwell Anderson's celebrated play, Valley Forge, which so aptly portrays the courage and vision of the father of our country. And to South Star, we are happy indeed to welcome back to the hallmark playhouse that very fine actor, Van Heflin. Our hallmark playhouse is every Thursday. Our director producer is Bill Gay. Our music is composed and conducted by Lynn Murray, and our story tonight was dramatized by Lawrence and Lee. Until next Thursday then, this is James Hilton saying, good night. Look for hallmark cards that are sold only in stores that have been carefully selected to give you expert and friendly service. Remember hallmark cards when you carry them up to send the very best. Joe, our Prince Charming tonight was played by Whitfield Conner, the very godmother who was Vernon Felton. Eleanor Oddly was the stepmother, and our stepdaughters were Sarah Burner and Mary Jane Groft. This is Frank Goss saying good night to you all until next week at the same time. When hallmark playhouse returns to present Van Heflin in Maxwell Anderson's Valley Forge, in the week following, Booth Talkingsons must share both care, starring Douglas Fairbanks Jr. And in the weeks to follow, Laura Ingalls Wilder is the long winter on the hallmark playhouse. This is CBS Big Love, the broadcasting system. This is KMBC, Kansas City, Missouri.
