J-E-L-L-O! The Jell-O program starring Jack Benny with Mary Livingston, Phil Harris, Dennis Day, and yours truly, Don Wilson. The orchestra opens a program with Pinch Me. You know, one secret of planning a successful meal, ladies and gentlemen, is to finish with the flurries with a really swell dessert. In fact, that's one reason so many people like Jell-O because it always winds up the meal in grand style with a burst of color and a touch of rich lingering flavor. Take Cherry Jell-O, for example. Nothing makes a prettier picture than a shimmering bright red mold of Cherry Jell-O with golden sliced peaches glowing in its depths. And what a tangy, refreshing flavor, as tempting as the real ripe fruit itself, a solid satisfying goodness that you'll want to enjoy again and again. No doubt about it, a dessert like that certainly adds the final crowning glory to any meal. So when you plan dinner tomorrow, plan to finish with a flourish with Jell-O in any of Jell-O's six delicious flavors. Only just be sure of getting genuine Jell-O when you buy. Look for the big red letters on the box. They spell Jell-O and Jell-O spells a treat. Pinch Me played by the orchestra. And now, ladies and gentlemen... Oh, Don, Don, did Phil get here yet? Uh, not yet, Jack. And now, ladies and gentlemen, this be our first program of the new year. We bring you that holdover from 1939. Jack Benny! Jell-O again, this is Jack Benny talking. And, Don, I didn't mean to interrupt you before, but, uh, I'm a little anxious for Phil to get here. He isn't out in the hall, is he? Uh, no, Jack. What's the trouble? Oh, no trouble, Don. That is, I hope not. You see, I made a wager with Phil on the Rose Bowl game last Monday, and he lost. He'll be so mad he'll go nuts. Oh, so you bet a couple of bucks on Southern California, huh? A couple of bucks, nothing. I bet $50 on SC. 50 smackers. Uh, pardon me. I must be in the wrong studio. Mary, come back in. There's nothing wrong with my risking $50. Of course, I had a hunch that I'd win. You didn't have a hunch. You had a vision. I have nothing of the kind. Anyway, Don, just wait until Phil gets here. I doubt if he even shows up. Oh, he'll show up, Jack. Well, don't start a ribbon or anything, because I'll have a tough enough time collecting as it is. Oh, hello, Dennis. Hello, Mr. Benny.  I certainly did. I, uh, I didn't see you, Dennis. Where were you? I was selling hot dogs. You owe me 30 cents. Oh, was that you? Yeah. I saw you at the game, Jack. You were sitting in the Southern California rooting section. Me? You should have seen him, Don. He was wearing a raccoon coat, a beanie, and waving a pennant with Laguna Beach on him. That wasn't me, Mary. That was Basil Rathbone. I happen to be sitting behind the goal post, way up in the 75th row. Up in the 75th row? Did you enjoy the game, Jack? Oh, it was all right, till the last quarter. What happened then? My radio broke and the clouds rolled in. What a seat I had. I was in the fog so long I came down with an English accent. Oh, well, I'll know better next year. Did you have any bets on the game, Mr. Benny? Just one, but I anticipate a bit of trouble collecting. You know, Dennis, I bet $50 with Phil Harris and wait to see him when he has to pay up. Oh, boy, what a bum sport. You know, he's the kind of a... Oh, quiet, Jack. Here he comes now. Oh, yeah. Watch me lead him. Hello, Gambler. How's the old Tennessee fan today? I'm fine, Jackson. And here's your 50 bucks. You deserve it, kid. You sure can pick them.  You know, Jack, I looked for you right after the game. I wanted to pay you then. Oh, sure, sure. I bet you did. I can just see you. Here, Jackson. Well, aren't you going to take the money? It's all yours, kid.  See what I told you, fellas? What's going on here? If you don't want it, I'll put the dough back in my pocket. You see? Backing out, huh? I thought so. What are you talking about? I lost the bet and I want to pay off. Here's your $50. I won't take it. Why not?  That's why. Jack, you mean to say that you're not going to take the money Phil's offering you? No, I'm not. Wow, that's going to knock the war right off the front page. Listen, Mary, I wouldn't accept a dime from a guy that takes the attitude he does. Well, Jack, are you crazy? The man offered you the money four times. But he could do it like a gentleman. He doesn't have to come in here and throw it on the floor. Who threw it on the floor? It's right here in my hand. You can't bluff me, Harris. Go ahead and sing, Dennis. I'll collect from that guy if I have to attach a salary. I've met small timers before. But gee, Mr. Benny, I saw Mr. Harris offer you the money. He wants you to take it. Sure he wants me to take it, and you know why, don't you? Why? Because when I bend over to put it in my shoe, he'll kick me. I'm wise, I know all the tricks. Sing, Dennis, it's about time somebody exposed that guy.  Here's your $50, take it. Don't rush me, I'll get it my own way. And now, folks, if we can get back to the spirit of our program tonight, the Benny Tear and Drama Jerkers will offer their version of Frank Lloyd's great production at Maritime Epic, Rulers of the Sea. Now, I will play the part. But Jack, last week you made a big announcement that we were going to do Golden Boy tonight. Well, we were going to do Golden Boy, Don, but I've decided to let it go for a while. And I know why. Mary, that's not the reason. Anyway, boy. Why the sudden switch? Don, please. Now, I will play the... Come on, Mary, tell us. Mary, why doesn't Jack want to do Golden Boy? Well, here's what happened. A week ago Saturday night, Jack called me up and asked me if I'd like to go over to the Wilshire Bowl for dinner. As Gladys had to work. She did not. Anyway, we got to the bowl about nine o'clock and had a table way in the back where Phil couldn't see us. And just as we were finishing dinner, I said to Jack... You like the food, Mary? Yeah. She is crowded in here, isn't it? It sure is. Hey, waiter, bring me another cup of coffee, please. I don't know about that, Mr. Benny. Go get it. Yes, sir. Gee, Wiz, Jack, just because the second cup of coffee is free, you don't have to have five of them. Mary, at all averages up, how many people even take the second cup? Cigar, cigarettes, and novelties, cigarettes. Oh, girly, give me a cigar, will you, please? Yes, sir. What kind? A couple of those Santa Fe Biltmores. By the way, what's that you got on your tray there tied up in that pink ribbon? That's a lock of Mr. Harris' hair. 50 cents. Well, I don't want it. You better take it. This is the last one left, and we don't cheer him again for a month. No, thanks. Just the same. Can you imagine that, Mary, is that filled corny? Cigar, cigarettes, corn, get in the mood, folks. Selling locks. Selling locks of his hair now. Isn't that awful? Say, I wonder what time the floor show goes on. Oh, look, there's Mark Werner, Phil's announcer. He's getting ready to introduce Phil. Oh, yeah. Good evening, ladies and gentlemen. Welcome to the Wilshire Bowl. And now, folks, it gives me great pleasure to introduce to you our master of ceremonies and comedians. Oh, boy. That maiden's dream on the beam, Phil Harris. How does he rate a reception like that? Well, Phil's very popular here. Thank you, thank you, thank you. Jell-O again, this is smiling Phil Harris talking. Jell-O again. He got that from me. You remember me, folks, your favorite entertainer and the star of that Paramount picture, Man About Tom. Hmm. He got that from Rochester. Quiet, I want to hear this great comedian. Hey, Phil. Yes, Mort. Where'd you get that black eye? That's a birthmark. A birthmark? Yes, I peeped in the wrong birth. Oh, my goodness. Oh. And they're laughing yet. Say, Phil, I heard you were in the hospital last week. Yes, I was, Mort. Pretty sick, eh? No, pretty nurse. Yes! Hey, waiter, bring me another cup of coffee. I'm going to get even somehow. I'll have one with you. Pull up a chair, kid. Mary, I can't understand. I can't understand why people laugh at Phil.  Then why are you writing them down? I'm practicing my shorthand. That's why. And now, folks, we'll be back in a little while with some sizzling dance music. See you later. Yeah. Well, thank heaven. Say, Mary, let's pay the check and get out of here. Okay, I'll match you this time. Now, tonight it's my treat. Come on, let's go. All right. Oh, Jack, look. Isn't that Barbara Stanwyck sitting over there? Where? Right over there at that ringside table. Oh, yeah. She's with another couple. I wonder where Bob Taylor is. I don't know. I'm going over and say hello to her. Do you know Barbara Stanwyck? Of course I know her. And say, Mary, I've got a great idea. As long as we're going to do Golden Boy next Sunday, wouldn't it be marvelous if I could get Barbara to play her original role? It sure would. I'm going right over and fix it. See you in a minute. You know, Barbara, it's a shame Bob had to work at the studio tonight. It certainly is, Barbara. Well, he's finishing a picture and they're working overtime. You know, Lillian, I was telling Bob only this morning that he... Well, well. Hello, Barbara. Hello. As I was saying, Lillian, I told Bob only this morning that a week in Palm Springs would do... Well, well, well. How are you, Barbara? I'm fine, thank you. Well, it's sure a surprise running into you here at the Wilshire Bowl. Wilshire Bowl? Where's Bob? He's busy at the studio. I expect him later. Oh. Are you working here? No. No. No, I just dropped in for a cup of coffee. Are these folks relatives of yours? Oh, pardon me, I'm sorry. Mr. and Mrs. Kendall, this is Ben Burney. Oh, pardon me, this is... No, no, this is Jack Burney. Benny. How do you do? How do you do? You know, Mr. Benny, I always listen to your program. Is Ms. Livingston with you this evening? Yes, Mrs. Kendall. She's sitting right over there with a waiter. Well, Barbara, it's sure a surprise seeing you here. Yes, sir. Yep. Where's Bob tonight? I told you he was at the studio. Oh. Oh, that's right. Busy, busy, busy, eh? Yes, busy, busy, busy. Well, it's sure a surprise. Yes, sir. Oh, look, the orchestra's about to start a number. Would you like to dance, Barbara? Well, I'm awfully tired. Can't you dance by yourself? No, I'd look funny. Come on. All right, folks, grab your partners. We're gonna play a little number in title. The sun shines bright on my old Kentucky home, which is more than it can do out here. Oh, brother. Come on, Barbara, let's dance. Come on. All right. Wait till I get my shoe on. Oh, yes, yes. Why, Barbara, you danced divinely. Thank you.  Just hang on, Pappy. Why, you're priceless. See, isn't this swell, Barbara? I just love dancing. Do you always puff like this? No. No, I'm just a little excited. You know, when I was a kid back in Waukegan, I used to poop. Oop, I tripped. Sorry, Barbara. Oh, that's all right. Somebody must have shoved me. Yes. I'm so crowded here. But you know, as I was saying, Barbara, when I was a kid in Waukegan, I used to... Oop. I tripped again. Yeah. I don't know what's the matter with me tonight. I'm generally very graceful. In fact, I got medals for dancing. Well, take them off. They're tearing my dress. Well, you have a marvelous, marvelous sense of humor. See, Barbara, look at the way that guy leads an orchestra. How he loves to show off. I like his style very much. Hello, Phil. Well, well, Barbara, how are you, Babs? I'm fine, thank you. Oh, by the way, Phil, this is Jack Benny. How do you do? Work for me. How do you do yet? See you later, corny. I call him corny. What does he call you? He wouldn't dare. Come on, Barbara. I've got something very important I want to ask you. Let's dance some more. One, two. So, you see, Barbara, that would be a terrific novelty. What do you say? Well, I'd love to help you out, Jack, but do you think it would go over? Why, of course, it would go over. Just imagine you playing your original role in Golden Boy on my program with me playing opposite you. Doesn't that intrigue you? Doesn't that do something to you? Doesn't that thrill you? Keep mentioning things. Good, then it's a deal. Now, let's see, when can we rehearse? Now, wait a minute. How about rehearsing Tuesday afternoon at my house? Oh, oh, all right. Then it's a date. My house, three o'clock Tuesday. I must tell Mary. Oh, there she is, dancing with the waiter. Oh, Mary! Don, Jack made a date with Barbara for Tuesday afternoon at his house. Did she show up? Sure she did. Well, then why isn't Jack doing Golden Boy tonight? Wait till I tell you what happened. Mary, forget it. I got over to Jack's house about a quarter, three, and you should have seen him. He was so excited, all he kept saying was, Rochester, have you fixed the sandwiches?  What's in them? This is some of that turkey from Thanksgiving which we also served on Christmas. Oh. That bird had a longer run than tobacco roll. Well, I don't want to serve that to Miss Stanwyck. My goodness, haven't we got any peanut butter? Or something? Yes, sir. Well, make some of those. And Rochester, when Miss Stanwyck arrives, bring her right here into the library. OK, boys. And oh, yes, take that copy of Sheena's beer down from the shelf, dust it off, open it to Hamlet, and put it on the table. It'll make an impression. Mm-hmm. Gee, I hope I look all right. What do you think of my new suit, Rochester?  Oh, I couldn't. Get them quick. Are you in there, Jack? Yeah, but don't come in for a minute, Mary. I'm waiting for something. Here's your pants, boys. Thanks. Say that's a mighty good-looking outfit. Well, I'm glad you like it. You ought to buy more brown suits, Mr. Benny. They flatter both of us. Rochester, don't you dare put this on until it starts to shine. Mary, you can come in now. What was going on, Jack? My pants.  Please lay off the wise cracks, will ya? OK. But, say, Jack, you ought to take that sign down from in front of your house. It looks awful. What sign? The one that says, Today in person, Barbara Stanwyck. What? Rochester did that. Rochester, you take that sign down right from the front of the house. Shall I take down the bleachers, too? Yes. Now, Mary, when I'm rehearsing with Miss Stanwyck today, you can help me out by commenting on how good I am. What should I do? Well, when I finish a very dramatic line, you yell out, Bravo. No, it'll impress Barbara. Bravo? What does that mean? Never mind what it means. Just say Bravo. Why can't I say Bravo? Don't you dare. Now, I want everything to be... That must... That must be her now. Answer the Rochester. I mean, answer the door, Rochester. OK, boss. Oh, Jack, control yourself. I'm all right. Where's my cigar? In your ear. Oh, yes. Now, remember, Mary. Good evening, ma'am. May I take your coat? Thank you. Barbara! Come right in. Well, this is a surprise. Surprise? Yes. I mean, that is a surprise. I mean, that is a surprise. I mean, that is a surprise. I mean, that is a surprise. This is a surprise. Surprise? Yes. I mean, that is welcome home. I mean, make yourself at home. I mean... You mean hello. That's it. Oh, by the way, Barbara, this is Mary Livingston. How do you do, Miss Livingston? I knew Bob Taylor before you did. Mary, don't mind her, Barbara. She's always like that. I know. She used to tell me hoes at the May Company. That's a good one.  Serves you right. Well, let's get on with the rehearsal. Did you bring the script with you, Barbara? Yes. And as the play is very long, I've selected one scene which I think would be ideal for both of us. Oh, you mean it's equally important. Yes. It's the scene where Lorna pleads with Joe to give up fighting and go back to his violin. I see. And I'm Joe. Unless you'd rather be Lorna. Oh, no! No, no. Joe is all right. I'm Joe. Hello, Joe. How are you now? I just got back.  Well, Barbara, I think we better get going with our rehearsal. All right. Now here's your part. It's on page 93. Hmm. Oh, yes. Well, what a beautiful copy of Shakespeare you have here.  Oh, yes. I often, while away an hour or so, perusing Hamlet, Macbeth, as you like it, The Tempest. Bravo! Not yes. Oh, yes, yes. I'm quite fond of Shakespeare. Well, that's that. Should I put it back on the shelf now? Never mind, Rochester. Bring in some tea and sandwiches. Yes, sir. Now, all right, Barbara. I'm ready to rehearse. Let's take it from the top of the page here. The scene where I'm trying to get you out of the fight racket. You have the first line. Oh, yes. Hmm. Joe, I'm going, Lorna. Don't read Joe. Just read the line. Oh, yes. Yes. Excuse me. I'm going, Lorna. Don't go, Joe. You must listen to me. When I first saw you, I didn't care what you did. I thought you were just a fighter. I didn't love you then. I didn't care whether you lived or died or what happened to you. I didn't care if I ever saw you again. I'm going, Lorna. No, Joe. You must listen to me. I love you now. You're part of me.  I've seen you get hard-shelled and tough. Or you shouldn't be in the ring. But it's not for you. You belong in your home. In your home with your violin. I'm going, Lorna. Oh, please, Joe. Please, if you love me, you'll listen to me. I know why you're doing this. You're bitter and callous and hard-boiled. I'm open. But, Joe, don't you remember that night? You spoke of music and what it meant to you. How you loved your violin. You knew what was right then, how people should live. Oh, Joe, give up fighting. Please, please. I'm going, Lorna. Jack, read that right. That's, I'm going, Lorna. Well, I'm tired of saying it the same way. See, it gets monotonous. A fine part. Well, you've got a very dramatic speech coming up. It's the next line. Oh, yes. I didn't see it. Go ahead, Barbara. What do you say, Joe? Will you give up fighting? Oh, Joe, you don't need the money. It isn't the money. I got plenty. Bravo and how? Marry. I'm sorry, Barbara. I'll take it again. It isn't the money. I got plenty. Oh, Joe. Joe, you must give up fighting. Watch this, Mary. Give up fighting? Why, you were the girl that liked champions. You were the... Please. Oh, Joe, don't try to get even with me. Well, I made up my mind to win the lightweight crown. But you're hard to music, Joe. You know that. I can't play anymore. I got the hands of a fighter. They've been... They've been soaked in Brian for a year and they're as hard as nails. They're good for only one thing now, slugging. I'm plugging my weight to the title. I tell you, Lorna, if I... Oh, wait a minute, Jack. Wait a minute. Oh, that's awful. Why? What's the matter?  Now, wait a minute, Barbara. I put a lot into that speech. I felt the part and was very emotional. I wasn't cared to wait. You keep out of it. And go get the tea. He's right, Jack. Your performance wouldn't convince anybody. Now, Barbara, aren't you getting a little bit hasty? Yeah, I might not be as good an actor as your husband. But gee, Wiz, we can't all be tailors. Your father was. Quiet. Now, give me a chance, Barbara. I've never read this before. Let's go back to my last line. All right, I'll try it once more. Okay. My hands are good for only one thing now, slugging. Slugging my weight to the title. No, no, Joe, you must give up fighting. You can't talk me out of it, Lorna. I'm going. Oh, don't go. Joe, please don't go. Take me in your arms. Kiss me. My darling. How was that, Lorna? Oh, Joe. I can kiss better than that. I was a little nervous. Oh, Jack, it's no use.  We don't only make fools of ourselves if we try to do this on your program. But Barbara, it's only Tuesday. We've got plenty of time to rehearse. No, no, believe me, Jack. Rehearsing won't help any. But Barbara, if you'd only... Tea and sandwiches, folks. Tea and sandwiches. Pipping is un-American. Will you... Will you have a cup of tea, Barbara? No, thanks, Jack. I'll just run along. He's not that bad. He can at least walk. Mary. No kidding, Barbara. Have a cup of tea and we'll rehearse some more. No, thank you. Some other time, Jack. Well... Well, that's the way you feel about it. Thanks just the same. You're welcome. Goodbye, Mary. Goodbye. So long, Jack. So long. Oh, by the way, Jack, you're not the kind that kisses and tells, are you? Oh, no, Barbara. No, no. Oh, no. You can trust me. All right, then. Goodbye. Well, there she goes. And I'm going, too. Goodbye, punchy. I can't understand why I didn't play that scene right. I know I can do it. Rochester, read Miss Stanley's part, will you? I want to try it again. Start right here, will you? Okay. No, Joe, you must listen to me. I made a mistake. I love you, Joe.  I can't play my violin any more, Lorna. I got the hands of a fighter. They've been soaking Brian for a year in their heart as nails. They're good only for one thing now. Slugging. Slugging my way... There you are, Don. That's the reason we're not going to do Golden Boy tonight. Well, that's a shame. It would have been a great show. Don't worry, Don. I've been soaking my hands and Brian all week. I'll get her yet. Play, Phil. One thing Jello has always been famous for, ladies and gentlemen, is the wide variety of ways that it can be served, and desserts, salads, and many other grand gelatin treats. But did you know that you can also use Jello to make the finest fruit or vegetable relishes you ever tasted? For example, Jello cranberry relish, bright crimson cranberries, gleaming in a golden mold of clear lemon Jello, and marvelously easy to make. All you do is first dissolve one package of lemon Jello and one third cup of sugar in one pint of hot water. Chill until slightly thickened and fold in two teaspoons of horseradish and two cups of raw cranberries, which have been put through the food chopper. Then mold and you have a delicious relish, a sprightly combination of delicate lemon Jello and the spicy tartness of juicy, ripe red cranberries. Served with roasts or cold meat, it lends a tasty tingle to their...


Hey YouTube! So you want to stand out with your NYU supplemental essay.  Thank you for joining me on my channel for the best college essay advice. Subscribe and hit the bell. Research, research, research. If you want to know what your essay, your Y NYU essay needs, check out this video linked above. However, if you want some inspiration from a happy student walking around Greenwich Village as we speak, stick around I'm sharing their Y NYU essay. Hi, I'm Dr. Josie with Write Your Acceptance with hundreds and hundreds of students already in college or graduates by now. I know what they're looking for. Stick around. So I'm going to share my screen now so that you can see exactly what the student wrote, but basically step one is your big Y. So here it goes. Studying at New York University, an epicenter for critical discourse would allow me to examine the construction of identity and diversity through collaborative learning. I wish to explore different opinions and new experiences through interacting with a global student body and faculty. Through my university career, I aspire to nurture connections with people of varying opinions as I believe this to be a lost art in today's public life. NYU's emphasis on inclusion creates the perfect environment for me to gain access to these multiple perspectives while formulating my own. So this is her big Y she wants to attend New York University. Step two are the details you want to use to support that big Y in an academic setting first. So here it goes. I am looking forward to the independence associated with going away to college while still within an intimate academic setting through NYU's core program. I am particularly drawn to the core curriculum and its focus on incorporating diversity into the intimate classrooms through its social and cultural foundation courses. It would be a privilege to learn from Professor Lisa Duggan from the Department of Social and Cultural Analysis. Her courses like race, gender and sexuality in US history would allow me to explain how individuals assume identities and break from stereotypes. These inquiry based courses will deepen my knowledge of identity politics in order to critically question such narratives through a social justice lens. No matter which direction I decide to take, I am confident that NYU has an excellent program for me to pursue. Now, if you know exactly what major you're going to study, you want to pursue, then this is where you put that towards the beginning of the Y and NYU supplement. However, this student has an interest, an intellectual passion that she wants to kind of examine social justice and identity politics. And so she's putting that through kind of the lens of a course, but she's not naming a specific major. She's naming more kind of general courses. Step three, extracurriculars. Now, this is a section where you put kind of beyond the classroom stuff. Further, from working for a high fashion designer like Chanel to exploring the world in politics through working with the United Nations or UNICEF, when it comes to internships and study away programs, NYU's possibilities are endless. I can pursue internships at any point in my college experience, allowing me to gain hands on experience. However, when not in Greenwich Village, I would enroll in a study away curriculum. A few of interests are fashion culture in the body in London and a history of immigration in Europe and US in Florence. I can even polish my French and enroll in a gender and sexuality course in Paris. So the student is really showing very specific programs, study away versus study abroad. So notice how that is kind of particular to NYU. They say study away versus study abroad, which is much more popular. So they are naming exactly what they would kind of study and where they would go. So the more specific you are, the better. Are you having trouble with your NYU supplement or other why us supplements? Comment below, I'd love to help you out. Step four, sprinkle in some NYU flair. So here we go. As an NYU student, I would proudly extend the liberal arts mission of interrogating established and new traditions to positively shape our future. I look forward to walking into the Boat's Library nestled on the corner of Washington Square South and feel like I've come home. Some counselors will tell you to not use the mission statement and I understand where they're coming from. But sometimes when the messaging and overall thought process of the why supplement works in tandem with the mission statement, not just kind of slap it on at the end, but it kind of, you know, you can integrate it nicely. Then then I say go for it, but definitely kind of name landmarks, you know, Boat's Library Greenwich Village. So you really kind of see yourself socially, culturally and academically at NYU. So if you want to make sure that your main essay is doing all that it needs to do critical thinking and creative writing, grab my free college essay download in the description below. I'm also offering why us templates and an academic word bank, basically those fancy academic phrases that you can kind of swap in and out. So you make your why us as kind of stand out and amazing as possible. And you need to each school. I have that available as well. I'm also reviewing essays. So hit me up, ask me questions, let me know if you are kind of struggling with anything. If you found this essay and video helpful, please give us a like, please share with your fellow college bound friends, and I'll see you soon. Thank you. Have a good one.


I had to do a catheter for this man who was paralyzed from the waist down. I had to get his pee up for him. Tell him what the catheter is.  And what's the job description of that? A CNA. A CNA, that's the one that changed. I was a CNA.  Like, I've changed diapers. You stuck a straw in the piece, damn.

Hi, I'm Roberto Sennino, System Research Manager at the CIMAC Electronics and I'm happy to welcome you to our booth here at Sensors X for 2016. Where as T we are showcasing products but also innovative algorithms and architecture such as the BlueCoin platform and the open audio optimizer teams for STM32 for audio processing. So the BlueCoin is a research platform at this stage. It will be made available to developers by the end of the year and it hosts ultra very high accuracy sensors and very low power sensors as well as microphones. At the core of the system there's a microphone array with four digital MEMS microphones coupled to a high performance STM32F446 180 mega CPU that can process in real time very advanced microphone array processing routines such as beamforming and sound localization. I would like to show you the system working in real time using this demonstration setup where the BlueCoin is mounted on a motherboard. It is streaming audio being recognized by a standard PC as a stereo microphone. So let's start recording the system. Now when I speak into this system this acts like a stereo microphone where the two tracks represent the output of a single omnidirectional MEMS microphone and the result of processing. So when I speak into the beam now the system is beamforming in this direction. My voice appears on both tracks but when I speak outside of the beam now I move the microphone and so it's beaming in this direction. My voice disappears from the top track as a result of beamforming and it's still very present in the bottom track where the omnidirectional microphone is unaware of the directionality of sound. So while I do this processing I can also at the same time identify the position of the speaker as you can see it is highlighted by this LED blinking in my direction. When I move the platform the LED continues to follow my position by blinking in my direction. Now we can use the BlueCoin also to demonstrate very advanced ultra low power audio streaming over Bluetooth low energy. We're going to do this with this demo setup where music is streaming is compressed in this embedded platform and it is streamed into this wearable mockup based on the BlueCoin. So here we are running concurrently three processes that is audio decompression, beamforming and voice recognition so that I can give voice commands to the system even in a very noisy environment. Hello BlueGini, next song. As you can see the music is changing. Now my command has been recognized and a command has been sent back over the BLE link into this system and it has been correctly executed. So the BlueCoin technology embeds all you need to bring audio into your IoT or wearable design. If you want to know more about this project please visit ST.com or contact your local ST sales representative. Thank you for your interest in the audio and in this platform.


This is Max Entman here at CSIS with Joey Booth. He's the executive director of the Stevenson Disaster Management Institute at Louisiana State University. And we're talking after the fourth session of the CSIS SDMI series on disaster management and emergency response. A very timely topic tonight about the earthquake and tsunami recovery in Japan. Joey, tell me what you thought were the key points from the discussion. Matt, the similarities between what New Orleans in Louisiana and the Gulf Coast went through after Katrina and what the Japanese culture is going through right now were striking. The same effects that I remember from five years ago, trying to recover the small business community, dealing with large numbers of evacuations, large areas of total devastation, large numbers of people in shelters, and the psychological impact on the community were all enormous issues that we had to deal with as well. And listening to what they're going through now and how strikingly similar that is and how we could probably do more to prepare ourselves worldwide to deal with these foreseeable, repeatable consequences. Joey, tell me a little bit more about what SDMI is doing to apply the lessons from state and federal crisis management to the international crisis. You know, we start off by looking at lessons learned, looking at the research and the data, looking at what happened in previous disasters and figuring out what can we do to recognize those trends early and cut them off and those foreseeable consequences that happen after disasters. What can we do to mitigate the incident, to mitigate the duration and intensity of these consequences and shorten that window and cause a quicker recovery? And we do that by research, looking at the data. We also do that with training, training responders to be more capable of responding quicker and being more effective in their jobs and supporting them with information to make better decisions. Joey Booth of the Stevenson Disaster Management Institute at Louisiana State University. You can watch the fourth session in full at csis.org or on iTunes U. Thanks so much, Joey.


So let's move on and with this we will stop the part that we have dedicated to artificial intelligence. But of course the next one important one is connectivity because the whole world is becoming connected. And one of the two new solutions we are showing on our booth this year are linked to connectivity to a cloud. So the easy way and secure way to bring your data to a cloud if you need. One of them is AWS and I will ask my colleague Ram Kumar if you could say a few words about our solution with AWS and how the U5 is helping to make this connection reliable and secure. Here we have AWS IoT running on the STM32 U5. The STM32 U5 is specifically chosen for the built-in security inside the device because it has got secure years. It has got best in class security with hardware unique key. And this is very much important for the secure solutions that need to have the key stored on the device on the MCU itself. And on this board what we have here we also have STSafe. If you want to go for common criteria EL5 solutions here you have STSafe on this board. That is tied to STM32 U5 and on this board now it is qualified and running on the AWS IoT code. So we have that running as you see here. This is a demonstration what we have here running AWS IoT code and this is a whole chain. The idea here is to carry all the vaccine vials at the lowest temperature and also if there is a wall detection you can identify it. And you can identify if you have a GPS connected to this through any serial interfaces or whatever you can identify where the location is. And all of this is actually done in the application done by Amazon here. And here you are seeing the temperature alarms which is already indicating that it is high temperature. And here you are seeing the humidity and temperature on the screen here. And we can also show a GPS screen on this one that is the idea. And this is running Amplify database on top of the STM32 U5 running AWS IoT code. And we have pretty much over there when we also have the entire defender application also running. So this is a nutshell. U5 STM32 U5 is the best-in-class device from ST to showcase our low-power technology and highly secure inside for AWS IoT customers. When you combine perfect cloud features with perfect hardware, the next level magic happens, right? Yes. So much new ideas and innovation happening in this field. That's true. So the need of a security is increasing year by year. And like Ramkumar said, the U5 is today best-in-class because it's the only microcontroller today on the market which has PSA level 3 and CC level 3 hardware certification on the hardware chip. So really we bring another level of security to the hardware or the device. And it's been a very highly repressed feature to have all the security and the IoT. On the IoT you need to have a secure boot and a secure firmware update solution. And this is implemented by ST and we have that. And this is aligned with the TFM and it runs in the secure and the non-secure zones. And it's a very good solution for a cloud-connected, low-power microcontroller from ST running Quotex M33 code. So AWS is getting more and more busy with IoT? AWS is very popular in the cloud arena. They have system solutions across the industrial consumer or many applications or even wearable applications. All the consumer applications needing to connect to the cloud. They have careful ecosystem support on the AWS IoT core. Yes. Thank you.


team keeping clean what's going on the same raven here with another video and in this video we here to share our post game thoughts and what's sad about this is this is the final post game thoughts video of the season by the way that the season has started by the way that it had been going by the way that this Baltimore Ravens team was assembled and how they really show themselves throughout the regular season and then even last week in the playoffs I truly believe and I said it from the very beginning before the season even started I truly believe that this Baltimore Ravens team was super bow bound and I felt like the only thing that could have gotten their way was health maybe coaching too but health really but they were healthy but this game against the Chiefs oh those are just a million different things that got in their way obviously the Chiefs but then a lot from the Ravens as well before getting to it and I know it's a sad occasion it sucks it's very frustrating it's maddening it's just makes you upset make sure you subscribe to the channel or turn your notifications on because we are not going anywhere just because the Ravens season is done we are not done by any means y'all know that we're gonna stay on top of everything still with the Baltimore Ravens with our Baltimore Ravens we're still gonna have a good time it would have been a lot better had we been on a little two-week break right now we're on the way to the Super Bowl but unfortunately we're not but anyway subscribe to the channel turn notifications on so you don't miss nothing and leave a like on the video too we don't like the situation but leave a like on a video because it does help out a ton now get into this game let's start off with the defense the defense they started off this game really shaky really shaky because Patrick Mahomes they got the ball back at the Ravens offense they didn't do anything with it on that first drive Patrick Mahomes and the Chiefs offense they got the ball and they just kept moving kept converting and the crazy thing about it all game long wasn't really any deep shots the one in vs at the very end that was one deep shot but a lot of the game was just intermediate stuff it was it was mostly just short stuff and then getting yak mostly there was a past a couple of past the Travis Kelsey that were not really deep shots though but yeah that so the Ravens took away the deep passing game it was just a bunch of bunch of little short stuff and all the way up until that very last play that 32 yard pass to MVS that ended the game on Arthur Millet Patrick Mahomes had like a little over 200 passing yards so that's great to hold Patrick Mahomes like 200 passing yards that's her win right there but anyway the Baltimore Ravens defense is started off and they with Patrick Mahomes they have Patrick Mahomes and he scored on the first driver then he scored on the second drive and then so they had 14 points but then right before half then the Ravens they made the adjustments and that's what I was talking about doing the stream to I said with Mike McDonald people freaking out like oh Ravens gave up all these touch these two touchdowns and chiefs are doing what they wanted I said well Ravens defense they close because with a lot of the plays it's not like guys were running wide over well Travis Kessie was open a couple times but for the most part it ain't like a bunch of chiefs receivers were running wide open Ravens cornerback safeties linebackers they will be right there but the chiefs player would make the better play so I was saying that with Mike McDonald it's like he's not calling bad plays because the guys are right there but the chiefs are just executing better than the Baltimore Ravens are so then what happened after that the chiefs got them two touchdowns and then I guess Mike made a couple of fixes here and there they scored three points the rest of the game the rest of the game that's what makes this even more frustrating the chiefs they scored 14 points early and they scored three points for the rest of the game for the second half they didn't score a single point not a field goal nothing for the entire second if I tell you for the entire second half of the game the chiefs is gonna score 17 points in the first half but for the entire second half of the game your team is going to hold the chiefs out of the not the end zone but off of the scoreboard they ain't getting no more points they're done scoring I'm telling you oh that's a blowout Ravens blowing my oh yeah let's go baby not today not today not today Ravens offense in this game special teams they did what they had to do Justin Tucker with that clutch field goal ought to make it a one-score game toward the end of the game the Ravens offense just failed Ravens defense will get a stop a Ravens offense go ahead take it away nope Ravens defense will get another stop I Ravens offense you all got us right Ravens offense nope Ravens defense I we just stopped patching my holes in them again let's go ah Ravens offense oh you did oh oh sorry they just let him down all game long for the most part there were some tiny moments here and there well obviously the big player say flowers for the touchdown that was a beautiful thing Lamar evaded pressure hit Zay down the field with a strike touchdown let's go but then later on in the game he hit Zay flowers again Zay flowers was a huge part of this game obviously mostly good but then it was at one play where he had to hiccup and I don't I don't put this loss on Zay flowers I know a lot of people want to put this loss on Zay flowers I don't put it on Zay flowers at all because he showed up in a big way for the Baltimore Ravens all game long he just it happened the Chiefs defender made a great play knocking that thing out it's easy to look back in the edit and be like oh man we wish Zay flowers would have just cover the ball and just put his head down and ran toward end zone but he really he really wanted to get that ball in his own for the Ravens he dove stuck it out Chiefs defender knocked it out it was just a great play by him but I'm gonna play but that that was a big big game changer huge game changer for sure but it's like the plays with the Baltimore Ravens the turnovers where first the first tournament turnover happened in the first half with Ronnie Stanley got beat and then they just Lamar's getting ready to throw it and knocked it out of his hands that's all Ronnie Stanley that's not on Lamar but see don't worry Carter not laughing at Lamar he ain't laughing at the Ravens he laughing at something else but anyway but then the other turnover where the one on Zay where he got knocked out so that was obviously Zay but the interception the interception Lamar Jackson made a terrible decision but you know what's crazy he shouldn't have had to pay for that terrible decision because it was a terrible decision he threw into triple coverage threw it to Isaiah likely bad past bad decision but it was passing interference on that play let's pass interference it really was it was clear passing interference to what they call nothing and I'm not saying that the refs that they they changed the outcome of this game they had an impact on it for sure but Ravens still had a lot of opportunities I would not I'm not one of people that say oh the refs lost in this game the refs cost him this game they played a big part they played a significant part and that like plays like that that's big because you think back at it and you like man if they were to call pass interference Ravens get the ball at the one yard line it's like you just know that scoring whether they hand it off to Gus Lamar keeps it they throw it to somebody in it you just know they getting a touchdown but no call that takes away points took away points so that did have a big impact on the game there were a lot of calls in this game that were interesting to say the least there was a taunting call on Zay flowers and I said really taunting on Zay flowers that they called it was after Zay flowers got that big big catch right on at toward the end of the third quarter big catch oh Ravens moved down the field Lamar trying to get them to hurry up he like hey let's keep going let's keep going let's keep going but they flowers he had threw the ball at the uh he stood over the um the corner back the kind of through the ball in his direction oh taunting but I know Travis Kessie was showing that all game nothing nothing nothing some other calls to that were frustrating but they were actually legitimate calls were the Ruffin and Passa on Jadavian Clowney oh my goodness it was frustrating but Jadavian Clowney he had patched my homes in the helmet the Ruffin and Passa on Travis Jones it was frustrating but he hit patching my home's face mask up he hit him in the helmet in the helmet and moved up it's a good call it's frustrating but it was a good call Calvanoa unnecessary roughness he headbutted Travis Kessie when they get into the little skirmish it's frustrating you hope they would just let him play but it was a good call so there was some other stuff too there was some holding calls called on I think number 65 on the chiefs those are legitimate because he was grabbing like he really did tackle them almost um am I missing anything I'm not sure but yeah frustrating game with the calls but even more frustrating game for the offense because again they still even with all the calls they still have plenty of opportunities they had a lot of opportunities but they did not take advantage of them at all and they had chance after chance after chance after chance after chance after chance after chance for nothing they didn't do it they think about top monkey you think about Gus Edwards Gus Edwards and Justice Hill Ravens number one Russian offense in the league it's playoff time it's cold weather football oh chiefs got a bad run defense oh yeah we taking advantage baby nope six carries between both of their running backs three carries each three carries each Ravens were asking to lose this game by that alone Ravens panicked they panicked they got scared they got frightened and they shut themselves down they completely turned off the running game they made the running game a non-factor they didn't even give themselves an opportunity to get warmed up three carries for Justice Hill three carries for Gus Edwards Lamar had eight but that he's a different part of the running game he obviously is a big part of it but he's a different part of it but with your running backs three carries each they flowers the wide receiver he had two carries so he pretty much had just as much carries as your running backs your wide receiver did embarrassing topic conversation we'll get into this a little bit later a lot of people will worry that when Mark Andrews came back that the passing game may suffer because it had been doing so well without Mark Andrews and Isaiah like they've been doing this thing Isaiah likely was quiet this game we hear people we heard a little pee from him early on but that was I think he only got one catch let me just check to double check but I'm like 99% sure he only got one catch oh he had two catches oh okay fell like one Mark Andrews also had two catches fell like one as a flowers was a leading receiver of five catches for 115 yards in a touchdown we remember the fumble of course to Nelson Aguilar had that big catch he also had a drop at the very beginning of the game but he had that big catch for 39 yards which was it looked like it was gonna set them up nice but Justice Hill had four catches 34 yards Odell Beckham Jr. three catches for 22 yards it's gonna be real interesting to see what they do with Odell Beckham Jr. and this is not a reactionary thing because of the game but just really this whole season because all Odell Beckham Jr. obviously he's been hurt all year so he's been a part-time guy for the Baltimore Ravens but I wonder how what they're gonna do with Odell Beckham Jr. how do they view Odell Beckham Jr. are they gonna be like all right well Odell Beckham Jr. maybe you'll be healthy next year we'll keep you around or do they look at Odell Beckham Jr. like all right were you a part-time guy you know what it just didn't work out we're gonna go for somebody else who's more full-time somebody who we feel like we can get more out of what are you gonna do it's a good question and we'll see very very soon in the coming month and a half because yeah time is a ticking but yeah this team I was really thinking that this I just knew this team was gonna go all the way they were gonna take your business get to the Super Bowl and win it they had it just knew it but they failed and this season in my opinion is a failure it's a failure you had a great regular season you went 13 and 4 you had already broke all these records and whatnot that are awesome but you didn't get to the Super Bowl and you did not win the Super Bowl you failed came up short came up short so I had all the chances you had a roster the roster was nice coach staff not old man you failed so all that goes down a drain and not that it's all for nothing because yeah again you had a good season overall but it just wasn't good enough and now it's over now you can't do anything till next year you can't avenge yourself till the following football season to the 2024-25 season everything was right there in front of you and again for the most part when someone was right there in front of them they took it but this one they let it go team keeping clean I appreciate y'all we have had a fun season we wish we could have a little bit more fun but it is what it is like we said earlier we ain't going nowhere we're still dropping videos for y'all we still we're still gonna be around it'll be a little different the vibe would be a little different because Ravens are done but we still here I love y'all so much thank y'all for making it such a fun season thank y'all for helping the channel out a lot thank you for just being a part of the growth thank you for being a part of the fun thank you for being a part of the positivity I know you ain't really feeling too positive right now because of the way that Raven season ended it's on such a negative note and what's even more frustrating about is like that's that's how you lose really not a last-second field goal not a crazy catch not some insane play but that's how you lose like that that's like that's a frustrating regular season type loss you supposed to leave that in them 17 games not no playoffs like that not yuck no number one seed home field advantage and you that come on man what's that that was terrible terrible but you know we're still rocking with the Ravens man and just hope the best for next year and we'll see how the team is assembled we'll see how to kick culture staff is assembled and we'll just go from there but team keeping clean I love y'all so much I appreciate y'all so much and just like it comes to the Ravens with their status being in the playoffs we out


Back to think tank. Welcome back to think tank talks. Welcome back to enter the variance. We're going to talk about the variance with our chief scientist, Mike to work. Welcome to the show Mike. Thank you, Jay. Good to be here. Well, virtually there too. Yeah, well, science right. So it's really extraordinary how far the technology is going. I just saw something called, I guess it's a business system made by the poly company POLY company that makes these conference funds, you know, and they and they have taken all of this, you know, zoom type communication to a new and more expensive level, this money to be made and they're trying to make it. Anyway, Mike, you know, you've done a lot of work examining the variance and, you know, as if life wasn't complicated enough these days. Or as you know they say in the Chinese culture, interesting enough these days, we have the variance enter the variance and every time you look there's another one, and they're all over this country already and they're different. And that's the part you have to wrap my mind around they're all different different implications, different characteristics, you've been studying them so how far have you gotten in your studies what do you thoughts about that should we care a lot about them or what. We should care a little bit about them but more and as time goes on. The variants, some of them have actual major changes in the spike protein that the, that the vaccines target. So far, none of them seems to have enough changes to actually make all the vaccines useless. But there's some concern that some of the vaccines that actually been tested in South Africa are showing maybe 50% efficacy instead of 90% efficacy. And that's the problem with evolution is, once you let these viruses out and you don't control them, they will start mutating and once in a while we'll get lucky. And you come up with some that's more contagious, or something that's more resistant to vaccine, and the worst case be something that's both. And just adds to the urgency we've got to get the vaccination program up and running, so we can reduce the case load and thus reduce the chances of more mutations. Yeah, I noticed that, you know, all the variants we know about came from outside the United States, which and it just goes to prove the point that if you have a global pandemic and you have all these cases going on out there. And in many countries, there really isn't a effective vaccine program right now. The more cases you have it's mathematical isn't it. The more cases you have the more mutations you have, and the more mutations you have the more the likelihood. The more likelihood is that there'll be a couple of zingers in there, and they will travel faster they'll be more contagious more deadly more resistant to the existing vaccines. Right. Right, or they may end up like AIDS and become less deadly, but that way have the victims hand around longer to spread the disease more. We just don't know yet, but we really don't want to have to get to the point where we do know and what we have to worry about we want to get ahead of it, get everybody vaccinated, and get this thing under control. Just a point of curiosity. So what we what we have seen in the past month or two is development the emergence of vaccines in various places in the world. Variants in various places in the world, which are more dangerous, more deadly, more contagious, more arguably resistant to our existing vaccine technology. But couldn't it be that they could likewise the variants could likewise be less dangerous, less contagious, or, and that they could effectively, you know, take over the earth with a less threatening COVID. Is it possible logically. Well, let's contagious variances unlikely to take over because it will eventually be out competed by the more contagious ones, but unless a more contagious variant that's less deadly. That's a possibility. It could crowd out the less contagious but more deadly one. We can't really bank on that. I don't really want to hope for that. Well, we, I mean, hope that it becomes less deadly the way AIDS has. Or you can, but you also just need to make sure you try to kill it off because it could be just more contagious and just as deadly. That's probably as likely scenario is more contagious and less deadly. Well, if you had what strikes me that if you if that happened, if there was a mutation that was more contagious but less deadly in fact not deadly at all. And you let it out into the population, then the world would have this, you know, less, less deadly, more contagious strain of the virus. And that's pretty risky in itself, because it could then mutate into something who knows what, then it becomes more dangerous, and it's everywhere and you know we haven't done the right thing. So that's essentially what we do with the Saban style polio vaccine polio vaccine you get in the sugar cube on drops that you can swallow. It's a live virus that's been attenuated where it doesn't cause polio symptoms, but confers unity to polio viruses. So if you have a vision, doing something like that and making it very contagious. The problem with that polio vaccine is sometimes a, the vaccine virus will revert back to a dangerous form. That's why we took, there's three strains of polio out in the wild. One had a tendency to revert. Once we wiped out that strain of polio we took that strain out of the vaccine to keep it from going wild again. The other two have less tendency to revert but they're still out there in Afghanistan. We've got to get everybody cured of this disease, and we're close to it. And then we can get rid of all the polio vaccine and not worry about it. So yes, you can see something like that happening with a COVID virus. So you can see, maybe something that it has to be a virus that is less deadly, but also confers immunity to the deadly versions. And I'm not sure we know how to engineer a virus like that. But we do know how to do it now with the mRNA technology is engineer a vaccine very quickly for any new variants. Yeah, the problem problem is that, you know, query have we done that, are we doing that. I doubt the Trump administration was, you know, encouraging and supporting that or funding it, maybe in Europe. And I remember a quote in the newspaper by the Turkish guy that headed up the bio and tech company that partnered with Pfizer for the existing Pfizer vaccine he said, oh gee whiz we can handle variance. It'll take 6090 days we'll just adjust the vaccine to deal with that. I've heard more about it since though. Pfizer and Moderna are both looking at this they will want to test the problem is you'll have to test the new vaccine and make sure it's as effective as what you have now. But then you can envision a case where they say, well, hey, maybe we don't want to vaccinate everybody and let the variance get out because then every year we have to be cynical. Well, I mean you could get cynical about this you know no sooner you get your shot no sooner this, there seem to be a solution and struggling through a distribution system, you know when enter the variant. Now what, and we don't have enough data to know what it means. All we can do is look at scenarios and try to prepare for various possibilities. I've done some toy pandemic simulations to kind of illustrate the principles. Yes, please. Okay, so all this is a snapshot of where we are. United States has got 27,000,000 cases so far and going on half a million dead more people than we lost in World War Two. The world's on 100 million cases and Hawaii. Hawaii is about 11,000 of the total US caseloads right like 25,000 cases. It's not exponential in Hawaii we seem to have stabilized that it kind of steady linear growth. United States is slowing down, fortunately, people are getting the message. So that's just where we are. So the next slide I show a simulation. I'm so in this simulation I've changed up the colors a bit for what we had before blue are the people who are susceptible green are the people who are immune. Red is the people who are contagious and black are the dead ones. And in this case I've taken a virus that infects like 30% of its neighbors. If you've got the virus 30% of the people in contact with you all average get it from you. And then every 10 weeks or so another tourist comes in or somebody goes to the man comes back brings the virus in so you can see that it kept going around and around. The top line is the infected people versus time you see how it goes up and down up and down. That's because immunity is waning. I put in a time for the immunity to wane up about six months. So you get the virus, you're immune for most six different six months or so.  And this goes in waves, you know, a couple of years in this simulation and the death rate goes keeps going up and up and up and up in this case. In this simulation 800 weeks 15 something like 15% of the population is dead. So that's a that's kind of the worst bad case, but what if the virus is more contagious and just as deadly. So that's the next simulation I'll show if you go to the next. So this one is spreading faster because it's infects about 40% of the people that you come in contact with instead of 30%. And you add in the tourists bringing the disease in and it just goes fast zipping around the whole population very quickly. You can see the black dots growing in the simulation. The end result of that is that the population never really gets a rest from the disease. It's it spreads so quickly that you don't your waves don't go down very low before the next wave comes along. And they get a higher death rate just because the immunity because it's so contagious that there's less herd immunity possible. And this one only starts to slow down where about 15% of the population has died of the virus. So they're not infectable anymore. So now let's have fathers as what if we had a vaccine for that contagious virus with that vaccine or 94% effective. And that's the next simulation. So in this simulation, the green spots of people are a vaccine or naturally immune. You see the red just never gets a chance to really get going. Every once in a while, there'll be a cluster red cells show up that they never really spread because there's so much right now. Now this is flickering because the immunity is waning, but we keep vaccinating. The vaccine about 5% of the population every week, and that's enough to keep the virus at bay. So if we go to the next slide, you see what's happened. That top red curve is we had an initial spike when we just started vaccinating of cases, but it was far fewer than the cases we had. We had like 3% of people sick at any one time. This is like 0.3%. And then it never really picks up again. The death rates way lower, less than a percent, even after 800 weeks of the simulation. So the 94% effective vaccine and vaccinating every 50,000, 5% of the population every week, we get rid of it. It's gone. Well, what if we only had a vaccine that was 50% effective, but we're still vaccinating 5% of the population next week. That's the next simulation. So on this one, it does get initial spread, but you know, even the 50% effectiveness, this vaccine, because we keep vaccinating 5% every week, which in Hawaii got 50,000 a week. But again, the virus is never going to get a toehold. Even at just a 50% effectiveness, we've tamped it down. And so if you look at the next slide, we'll show the results of this. Clearly, there's an initial spike, but it's still smaller than the spikes with the unvaccinated populations. You do get some subsequent waves as exogenous sources bring the virus back in, but they're nowhere near as big as before and death rates still low. So even a 50% effective vaccine, if you vaccinate everybody, if you keep vaccinating people to stay ahead of the Waynean immunity is effective.  What if you can only vaccinate 2% of the people a week, you know, 50 weeks to vaccinate everyone with an immunity that Wayne's after half a year. So you got one year to vaccinate everyone and the immunity Wayne is after half a year and you've got only 50% effectiveness in the vaccine. What happens then? Now that's in the next simulation. And this one, you see it looks almost as bad as the very first one I showed. These waves of contagion keep coming around. The black dots keep increasing. And it's because we're not vaccinating in this simulation fast enough to keep up with the Waynean immunity. So you can see the results in the next slide or summarize. So the red peaks, the peaks are almost as high as in the unvaccinated population. There's still nice big gaps between the waves of contagion and they do eventually attenuate. But you still have quite a quite a bad crisis and you still end up with, you know, over 80, 800 weeks of this simulation, 10% or so of the population having died of this disease. And this is a poise simulation. It's something that could be coded up by a bright high school kid with access to MATLAB. More sophisticated simulations will undoubtedly show slightly different results. But this general serve the general principles. You've got to vaccinate fast enough to keep ahead of Waynean immunity. You've got to vaccinate. Having a vaccine isn't enough. You must vaccinate the people. And that's the only way to protect your entire population from this thing.  There's not debate going on as to whether you take the second shots that were being held in abeyance. And instead of giving them to the people who received the first shots, you give them to new members of the population. Thus, by definition, you know, reducing the efficacy of the series of shots for everyone. But where do your numbers show on that? What do your analyses show on that question? Should we be doing that? Or should we make sure to give everybody the full two doses? Well, I didn't address that in the simulation. But my look at the simulation is that you're better off vaccinating as many people as you can as fast as you can. And then trying to fill up the pipeline with vaccinating, get the second vaccines and before the first vaccine community is waned, which looks like we're looking at months for that to happen, not days or weeks. So you have time. You should get everybody as many people vaccinated as possible. The simulation showing, in this simulation, we didn't just vaccinate. The simulation didn't make a distinction between high risk people who would die of the disease more readily or people were low risk. It just said, randomly vaccinate the population. And that was enough to slow it down and stop the contagion from spreading. And there's some thought that we should even be vaccinating the spreaders, you know, people, well, certainly healthcare providers will see a lot of sick people, but also people who face the public a lot and have a lot of contact with a lot of people. So if we vaccinated the spreaders first, maybe we would be more effective at slowing it down. That's a bit controversial because now you're not vaccinating the people in the nursing home first. So what I really hope is that we can get the production and distribution up to the point where we don't have to make that kind of a choice. And we need to get as many people vaccinated as soon as we can and then get the cycle going of revaccinating as soon as we can get that going again. So efficacy is not critical. It's the primary thing is to get as many people vaccinated as possible. Some of these vaccines are more efficacious than others, but in the end, it doesn't matter. Just get them all out there and get people vaccinated. I guess that's what I hear you saying. Yeah, what the simulations are showing is that if the vaccine is even only 50% effective, if you vaccinate enough people, you can shut down the epidemic. And that's sort of the good news. The bad news is you've got to vaccinate enough people, which is the bigger logistic problem. You know, right now we aren't able to get vaccine out as fast as it was promised, and we really, really need to get it out there. If we can vaccinate fast enough, we can stay ahead of the contagion, even with a less effective vaccine and buy time for a more effective vaccine as new strains of disease develop. Yeah, well, we also have a time factor on how long the vaccines last. In other words, if you say let's let's do everybody and let's hustle to do that. And then you and it takes you, let's say, you know, using your assumption in the charts and takes you six months to do that. Well, now you got to start it up all over again and vaccine and give them vaccinations again in six months now. Right, well, that's that. So what I showed was assuming that you were constantly revaccinating people about 5% every week of the population with even a 50% effective vaccine and this simulation which isn't necessarily truly like COVID, but it illustrates the principle.  So you can keep up with the demand. So you have an ongoing constant vaccination program. And that's what was in this simulation, which with modern with the Pfizer and Moderna technology, you can do you don't have to incubate it in chicken eggs. You can grow it and a bat, you know, essentially using this mRNA technology and have those vaccines ready. And I agree with the Turkish camera was named but the leader of biotech data. They can do it 90 days and they can put out new vaccines, maybe combining the old mRNA for the new strains pretty quickly. You just need to make sure that pipeline spilled and get the machine going to keep that pipeline filled. Now, of course, this makes a huge revenue stream for the vaccine makers, you know, an ongoing reliable source of income. If the immunity is actually permanent, then you need less, there's less urgency. If the immunity once you're vaccinated stays for more than six months stays a couple of years, then you can, you have less of a logistics problem because you can take more time between vaccinations. Yeah, the one thing I can't wrap my head around is the notion that all the variants vary from the other variants, they spring up, you know, in the different geographical locations different mutations and not the same. So that if the guy the Turkish guy in Germany and buy on buy on buy on tech buy on tech. And he finds something on variant one. Good. Now we all, you know, run to that side of the boat. We make a new vaccine for variant one. It's probably going to be different than the existing vaccines we have today. And then of course, we have to go very in two and three and how many others. And my question to you is, so how do I know which vaccine to take. And well, you know, that spike protein can't change that much without reducing its own effectiveness at infecting cells. So that's probably why is so far the vaccines, even the older vaccines seem to be effective against the new variants are at least a 50% like a modern and the Pfizer seem to be retaining effective is better than AstraZeneca vaccine. So it's not clear that you need a new vaccine for every variant. Now there's other ways these viruses can mutate you know they have to fuse their outer jackets with your cell in order to release their payload into the cell, they take advantage of cholesterol do that. So some of those mutations maybe in that part of the process making it easier for them to infect your cells without affecting the spike protein. As I said, if the spike protein changes too much, then it's no longer effective at infection so there's going to be all I think I think we're still in early days, determine how quickly we have to come a new vaccines. At this point yet where we have to panic that we need a new vaccine I think we need to get the vaccines we have out there as soon as possible, and then as many arms. And what would be really great is they could come up with an oral vaccine, instead of having to take a shot, because then you could distribute it really quickly, even at home, you could just take have it mail to your house and take it. It's not the necessity of, of refrigeration or anything like that. Yeah, shelf stable. So what this suggests to me. I mean, you make a comparison you have to make a comparison between this and, and the flu, because the flu changes every year and it changes by virtue of exactly the same mutation process.  If I have last year's flu, if I have been affected with last year's flu, and I take this year's flu vaccine. Will that help me. Yeah, I mean, most likely will. I mean, the problem is that they have it to predict in advance which flu that which flu virus is going to be dominant and have to cook it up and chicken eggs and they haven't applied the mRNA technology yet to the through far as I can tell, which could make it faster and more effective to actually get the strains out because they can take like a year in advance. What's going to be next year strain and start the process with that current technology will do better with the mRNA technology than that will be won't have to wait a whole year to cook up the new vaccine. Take a flu vaccine every year, and if you've had last year's vaccine, you'll have some immunity to get similar flu viruses that may still be circulating. And you might have some cross the minute in this year's. And it can't hurt you to take this year's as well. This year's vaccine as well. Well, if I, if I could develop a vaccine that would wrap all of the previous vaccines into it. In other words, so we, you know, at the end of this year, say, this calendar year, it will be probably more variance more mutations. Because so many people are infected right now. So now I have safe five, plus the original. And so six all together seems to me if science could do this. The best thing to do would be to give me a shot with all of the vaccines in it. Now, you know, with six different vaccines in that, in that, in that shot. What basis to do clinical trial to prove that it's safe to give all those variants at once. But that clinical trial doesn't have to be back the new vaccine versus nothing it could be the new vaccine versus the first vaccine, which would be the most ethical way to do the trial. So they will have to do clinical trials before they do that but they can do that. I mean, got it done in a year. And do that in a year show that a multi-valid vaccine is really effective and safe. And then roll that out. Then we don't have to worry about safety so much in the future because we know it's safe and just keep giving those vaccines. We need science, you know, to inform us as to what the best thing is. We don't, we don't want to tell, you know, go on old wives tales. We don't want to go on rumor. We don't go on conspiracy theories or blame game. And I mean, I'm happy to see that Biden is respecting science, but in terms of the individual human well two questions. One is, is Biden doing the best thing he can do right now to deal with COVID? Or is there something else you would urge him to do? Well, it certainly is doing the right thing to get people to wear their masks in public transport. And airlines are happy that that's happening. They've put a lot of stewards and stewards's minds at ease and pilots at minds at ease. Right. And trying to accelerate getting the vaccine. That's right. If he has to invoke the Defense Production Act to get the vaccination supplies made. That's the right thing to do too. Helping industry ramp up production would be the next thing that would really need to be done. If there's a bottleneck in production, then anything the government can do to help fund that. And then with this bottleneck, we should do. And the pharmacy, the pharmacy distribution system that that sounds like a good idea. It seems to me that would be better than an ad hoc arrangement, you know, handled by the hospitals. Yeah, no, I mean, next week we'll start shipping it to the pharmacies and before we go into CVS whenever my turn in line comes up, probably way way down the list because I don't have any really underlying risk factors. Yeah, doing it to the pharmacies is a very good idea to do as many kind of pharmacies as you can. All the ones are the right refrigeration facilities. And helping them develop those refrigeration facilities, especially in the rural areas and where they're underserved populations. Yeah, you do have to have a system within the pharmacy is not like you can just do it with the existing structure existing infrastructure you have to build people systems to get them through the process. Oh, my last question is, is, you know, what about the individual? I mean, it seems to me that the anti-vaxxer movement has diminished. It seems to me that people, you know, would like to have the vaccines now. There's been so much good information out there about it and his transparency has been helping. And the truth I worry about complacency and it will make the conclusion that I'll get a shot. I'll be fine. We'll all be fine. And then they stop wearing masks. So what's your advice to the individual? Wear your mask until enough people are vaccinated that the contagious not around anymore. That's, it's hard to do. It's one way we can get back to commerce. You know, I'll be more comfortable after I've been back to going to a restaurant and even after we're a mask until I start eating dinner. That would be fine. Right now I'm not even comfortable going to a restaurant, no matter how many precautions they're taking. I say, get vaccinated as soon as you can. Get your loved ones vaccinated. And then we can get back to work, get back to business, get back to having fun, going to movies maybe. Can I wear my mask then? Sure. Except when you, sorry to put it. Thank you for that. There's been all kinds of, you know, commercials and suggestions, including from the scientists about how you should, you shouldn't go with these flimsy masks. You know, there've been a lot of entries into the marketplace of masks that are really not effective. I've just been talking about wearing double masks. I've been talking about masks that has fabric that interwoven with other components that make them safe. But what are your thoughts about that? Well, yeah, wear a double layer mask. This is just a plain double layer mask to different kinds of cloths that like such static charge between them traps of particles. But you can also get masks like this one as a place where you can put in a filter like a coffee filter like kind of material, maybe better. But you can also get an N95 mask, which they're available now. I just ordered a bunch from Amazon. 50 for $50.  You can still be a fashion statement. Thank you.  You have to learn to do that. Mike, the word chief scientist on variants and enter the variants today. Thank you so much, Mike. Thanks for making those charts and scenarios really appreciate it. I'll talk to you again soon about the same things or other things that develop in our adventure with COVID. Aloha, Jerry.


Here's a question. I've been pondering lately. Why do women get blamed for men's actions? I Don't know actually. I do know I was watching a video. I was watching several videos this morning One in particular by a preacher that was basically blaming women for the problems in Relationships today and marriages and today why there's such discourse. Why do women initiate the divorces? Why are women making it uncomfortable for men and I'm just listening to this rhetoric and this is a preacher, you know Speaking to his congregation. I'm like How was just wrong? It was just wrong and then I watch video after video from men Who basically it's videos from men for men basically complaining about the dating marketplace stating that 80% of women are only going after 20% of men and that women have all the options and I'm listening to this I'm thinking well the math doesn't work out if 80% of women want 20% of men that means 60% of women aren't getting anything So how is that benefiting them? And I understand that the rhetoric is basically the problem is women only wanting 20% of the men But men are just as bad as well And I don't even like even saying the word bad I don't like the fact that there's such a divide between the sexes these days That's causing a big rift as to why there's so much contention in relationships today without looking at the root cause Now let me just say this I believe that the preacher was speaking to the younger generation Although and basically saying that women are such in their masculine that it either Emasculate men or it makes them less approachable to men and because women have to fend for themselves Then for themselves. Well, maybe part of that problem is is because couples aren't working in unison men aren't working in unison with women And women have to be empowered Because they can't count on men anymore, maybe that's part of the problem Why isn't that being discussed in the male population that men can't be counted on that men only care about their biological needs to spread their seed And nowadays it's just more easier to have sex And so the as I've said in previous women women are the gatekeepers of sex and men are the gatekeepers of commitment So men can get all the sex for free because is it is that the problem because women are giving it up too soon and men can't make commitment. I Mean, these are some questions that I think need to be discussed because I don't believe blaming Either gender either sex is going to help in this narrative of building healthier happier relationships And part of the reason why I beat the drum beat the drum beat the drum over and over again about reading the books I recommend about Looking at this from a different perspective because I got to tell you women also blame men for the problem They blame men and there's rightfully so and maybe there's rightfully so on the other side Maybe that's part of the problem is everybody is blaming one another instead of operating from a different perspective from a human perspective What does my t-shirt say human kind be both from a loving compassionate perspective? Here's the problem Most human beings are ridiculously dysfunctional in their relationship skills Most human beings are ridiculously dysfunctional in their emotional maturity Maybe that's the piece that we should be talking about instead of blaming the genders for their actions today Maybe it'd be best to look at the root cause of some of this Now there's been suggested that there's been a feminization of boys That's causing the problem that boys aren't turning into men and that there's this Masculation of women or girls so they turn into be harder people as they adults I don't know if that's true or not. I don't know it Because I'm not raising children right now But I certainly believe one of the benefits of being connected with our heart especially for boys to be more connected to their heart is That they can actually show up as better human beings in romantic relationship. I look at my son Now he wasn't you know, I didn't raise him to be a warrior I didn't raise him to go fight in wars because thankfully we don't need that I didn't raise him how to use tools in his life because thankfully we don't necessarily need that But what I do believe I did with him is Help raise an emotionally mature person that has the skills the communication skills to actually lean into life Let me tell you how I did that a couple things was I recommended that he do debate class So he can learn public speaking skills I encouraged him to do speech so he can do public speaking skills I encouraged him to do writing so he can tap into his feelings more so because one of things about being a writer is you have to Emote Feelings as part of the dynamic of being able to tell a story There were a couple things I encouraged him to and I also encouraged him to do a lot of male Boy-oriented things as well, but my point is I'm not here patting myself on the back My only point here is It's important to Recognize that we have to cultivate the emotional side of our lives. We I'm really here I'm gonna pull out a chart here to illustrate this if I still have it There with me a second Yeah, the four pillars of connection the four pillars of connection. I just want to show you this chart Okay mind body Spirit and emotions Mind but we always hear, you know Mind-body spirit, but we have to work on cultivating the emotions of a human being and it starts by healing our Childhood wounds and traumas or adult traumas to be able to cultivate the emotional parts of our relationship This is why I continually recommend the book Recommend the book the Hoffman process the Hoffman process. This does a deep dive into healing childhood wounds and traumas Childhood wounds of traumas so we can actually show up from a more Conscious loving place because if we're blaming men if we're blaming women if we're doing this There's no real benefit because you're going in opposite directions What we should more likely be encouraging For human beings is to operate from the four agreements if you're not familiar with the book the four agreements I highly recommend this reading this book if you've never seen this before you never heard about it Highly recommend reading this book the four agreements are Be impeccable with your word always do your best Never make assumptions and people's opinion of you is just might merely be their projection of you You can operate from those four places. You have a greater chance And I'm here to encourage men and women alike to operate from this place because the problem today is there's so much blame Going on instead of taking personal responsibility of one choices instead of leaning into our sovereignty our self-worth our Self-esteem our self-confidence and more importantly our self-love and yes I'm going to make a plug for my book by the way that all the books I recommend are listed below my book is called what the heck is self-love anyway a journey of personal development self-help and spiritual work I'm here to encourage this because sadly today We're not operating from an empowered place because guess what this little device has all our power These days this little device has control over human beings in such a way And what I mean to say is we're more Invested in this instead of invested in this instead of investing in our emotional I'll be I believe the average person spends between two to three hours a day in a minima staring at their phone Could you imagine what that time could be used for in a different way could be used to maybe heal your heart? Maybe learn to learn better communication skills now by the way if you're watching YouTube I'm fully endorsing that because what a great place to get how to Information in one's life and if you're using your device, that's okay, but I'm here to encourage personal development work self-help work spiritual work Because when you operate from that place of sovereignty of self-worth the self-esteem and self-confidence You no longer blaming the opposite sex and men won't have to blame the opposite sex as well We we have so many human beings blaming one another. This is why by the way, why do I encourage women to be in their power? Because so I think through millennia Women have given their power away to men and that's one of the reasons why women are standing up in such a different way today Because you can't be dependent on a bunch of man boys Not just for survival perspective, but for really connecting with one's heart This is why I continually recommend the book Why men love bitches? Let me read it over here. Bitch stands for babe in total control of herself. Yes, I Recommend this book because you step into your empowerment and not being dependent upon men for your emotional survival But a lot of guys complain because you know why guys are complaining Because they want Servants in their home. They want basically that tradition a lot of guys I'm not saying most men guys like myself don't want that whatsoever But they want that subservient woman that's gonna cater to every need But that woman who caters to every need and that guy changes her mind. She's out the window Sorry, I don't mean that literally but out the door so to speak Why would you want to give why do you want to create? Dependency on somebody else because you guess what at the end of the day we only have ourselves to depend on This is why there's another book I want to recommend today That's daring greatly by Brene Brown. I haven't talked about this book in a while Why do I recommend this book because it's it's about empowerment?  I step into my power I step into my sovereignty my self-worth and self-esteem so I can attract in a partner whom we share mutual chemistry with one another And we have excellent communication skills with one another and we can actually blend our lives together And we share the type of values that we want to push forward to and to co-create a relationship And we can build the deep roots of trust the deep roots of trust that allow us to have one of those Relationships where we're a true power couple and we can step into something more glorious like a juicy delicious healthy happy relationship God universe spirit. I invite that in One of the reasons why I started my private coaching practice. I did it too because I believe women have the power To actually connect a man to his heart. I do believe that it is through women that we actually connect to our heart This is why I'm encouraging empowerment to take in charge of your relationship destiny instead of giving it up to the man I'm here to say you are the emotional leaders in the relationship And if that quadrennity of that quadrennity that I shared a moment ago mind body spirit emotions You have the capacity to open us up to this. How do you do it? I'm here to say By not following doctrine what you just simply sit back in your feminine energy and that's gonna work It's gonna have worked through radical honesty by laying your cards on the table and reading books I didn't bring it out today emotional intimacy by Robert Masters emotional And by the way, there's a link to all the books I recommend By the way, if you want to schedule a discovery book call There's a link there as well in the description if you like this video, please like this video Please subscribe to my channel as well I'm here to suggest the following to cultivate Intimacy which I didn't coin this term but intimacy into me you see to really be able to see another human being it requires Self-reflection it requires a true introspective person to be able to see another person and yet today all we're doing is pointing the finger because we don't Look in the mirror ourselves Many cases thankfully many of you are I'm so grateful for many of you We're actually looking in the mirror and saying how can I improve my life from the inside out? instead of blaming genders or sexes How can I be empowered? How can I start saying? Fact one of the phrases I say in my private group called midlife love mastery by the way There's a link below to that as I often talk about it's raining good man. It's raining great man It's raining great people in our lives and when we start to invite that into our lives We start to cultivate better human beings in our lives And we actually repel those people that aren't really aligned to who we are and what we want It saddens me to watch videos That blame women it saddens me to watch videos that blame men I'm here to encourage looking in the mirror and saying how can I grow from the inside out? That's the invitation. I want to invite for everyone instead of the blame game So I want to wrap up with this one last thought most of you human beings human human, I should say human beings Have very little understanding of how to really mate today And that's why I want to encourage the work of Esther Perrell It's not everyone's cup of tea, but I want to just to understand this this is a great book called mating and Captivity to understand some of the challenges we face today because when we can operate from a place of understanding We can predict behavior When we can start to predict behavior, we can start making better choices in our lives I'm here to encourage more intentional dating To operate from a place of radical honesty by laying your cards on the table by being introspective because ultimately Don't you want a relationship with somebody that you just like? Just like being with them. I'm here to say it starts by being that person. That's likable as well And when you're likable You attract in someone else that's likable because hopefully We can stop operating from the blame game. We can begin to attract really healthy happy partners in our life Is this sinking and is this resonating? Please let me know post a comment below. I'd like to hear your thoughts on this Alright, I think I'm gonna wrap up this video a little earlier than I usually do on my weekend videos By the way for those that recognize that there's a different demeanor when I shoot the videos out on my balcony I'm not in my hyper, you know Vigilant mode of pontificating which you're using expletives to enhance a sentence.  Here's a teddy bear And give it or them a hug of love because hugs are a great source of love and let's face it We could all use more love in our lives. Thanks a bunch. Bye. Bye. Bye
