Hello, welcome back to School of Cardesonics. I'm Georgie, and I'm going to take you through some progressions to work towards your pancake. We've covered good mornings and looked at the hip hinge, and we need to really master that hip hinge before we start going into full pancakes. But there are lots of progressions we can use to work towards our pancake, and the first one that we're going to do is a standing variation. So very similar to the good morning, but we're just with a wide stance. So all we're going to do from here is take the feet wide, we're hinging at the hips, pushing the bum back slightly, allowing the upper body to help while gravity is helping to pull me down. So from here, I've hinged, bum pushes back a bit, hinging over, going to where I can, feeling those hamstrings fire up, engaging the glutes and standing again. So this is a dynamic way that we can go through these wide leg good mornings, working to where you can. Overtime, you can obviously add some external load as well, which will also help to take you a little bit deeper into that range, help improve that flexibility, but also build strength. So again, hinging over, and I might find that end range position, and then think about using some of those tools that we've done with our breath. So we inhale through the nose, feel the lateral expansion of the ribs. As you exhale out of the mouth, we're going to go further.  Don't worry if you're not all the way down there right now. Overtime, start with that body weight movement, then maybe add some load, but don't rush the process. The next variation we go into is using a platform as an elevation, and you may need that higher than where we are here. So using a box or a chair on the edge of the sofa, anywhere that can just help you gradually progress down towards the floor. So legs are wide, but we can also look at different positions. So if you can't take the legs all the way out here, try it a little bit narrower. You can have a soft bend in the knees as well. I'm thinking about allowing my pelvis to tilt forwards, which is going to help me with that hip hinge. Really avoid tucking the bum under, but it's just going to make me round through the back. So sitting up, slight tilt forwards with the pelvis. I'm going to get ready for that hinge. I can just move in and out. Just a couple of gentles at a good morning's first. Just notice how that feels. Squeeze the quadricep muscles as I'm coming up. Squeeze them to come up, squeeze the glutes. And the next one, we're going to go into it as far as we can. Find that end range position. Use our breath again. So inhale through the nose for that electric expansion of the ribs. Out of the mouth. Finding a bit more space. Take another breath in. And out of the mouth. Gradually working our way down. Obviously I've got my hands on the floor there. You can make that look a bit harder by having them on the hips. You're really working that strength through the range. But you can bring them down for a bit of support too. Another way that you can anchor yourself into this position would be to hold onto something in front, anything like an upright or a resistance band to help fix you into that shape and hold it for longer periods of time and work through that stretch. This is the dynamic version. We're building a bit more strength and moving in and out where we can also add some weighted load. These are our good mornings. So over time, I can lower that platform maybe until I'm just onto one plate or say it's a yoga block or something like that just to elevate the hips. Still making sure the mechanics are really strong with that hip hinge. And then from there, once I'm ready, I'm going onto the floor. Hinging at the hips again. This is where we want to be really careful as if I've progressed too soon we're going to find that we're stuck in this posterior pelvic tilt rounding and just aimlessly reaching forward and not feeling like we'd get anywhere. So making sure that we can really sit up in the hips from here, hinging over maybe moving in and out using the breath so find that end range position take a breath in through the nose exhale reaching forwards and also thinking of that positioning in my spine I want to think about drawing my belly button towards the floor. If I think about getting my head to the floor it's going to look like this. I'm just rounding through the back not really hinging effectively and I'm going to feel that less in the hamstrings and more in the lumbar spine. So again, one more time go back into that pancake position sit up nice and tall think about the belly button pulling forwards eyes are lifted rather than down here find that end range position take a breath in and out of the mouth engaging the quadriceps and sitting up nice and tall from there. So there's a few variations there that we can use to progress towards our full pancake position as I've already mentioned start with the easier progressions to the floor. There's no race or rush to get there using external load can also really help to take us deeper into that range whilst also strengthening it but as always just listen to your body work with the progressions right for you and over time gradually add some progressive overload to work towards that pancake If you need some help with your mobility then your love on your mobility program so check out all the details in the description below Class dismissed

Welcome to the Anxious Morning, where each weekday morning we take a look at ideas, concepts, and lessons designed to help you understand and overcome your anxiety. For more information, visit us at theanxiousmorning.com. You would think that a person crippled by anxiety, panic, and fear would be the last person you'd want involved during a real emergency. Wouldn't an anxious person crumble and be useless if the chips are really down? Oddly, the exact opposite tends to be true. Many anxious people in our community regularly tell stories of actual real-life emergencies and urgent situations in which they perform capably and without fear or panic. They never see that coming. Then they are almost universally shocked and amazed at how well they did once they get a chance to look back on the event. It's amazing, really. Why is this such a common situation? Why do we hear these stories so often? The anxiety you struggle with and the thoughts and sensations that come with it are all internal events. Your threat detection and response system is firing in response to no identifiable threat in the environment. You search for the danger, but none exists, so you become the danger. Your own body and mind become the danger. You get dragged around by normal, predictable bodily sensations and the thoughts that pop up around them. It seems uncontrollable and makes you feel completely incapable of handling anything. But what happens when your threat detection and response system is triggered by a real event happening outside your head that you can easily identify? What happens when the threat is well-known and the response is fairly well-defined and within the scope of your behavioral repertoire? If your child falls off their bike and sprains an ankle, this is a clearly defined event that requires a well-known response that you are familiar with and able to execute. There's no mystery and no ambiguity there.  You remain occupied with them and with the doctors and nurses taking care of them. Your body responds as designed and your capable mind processes input and makes decisions accordingly. Your usual anxiety, fear, and panic do not enter into it for the most part. Afterward, you find yourself amazed, feeling pretty good about yourself, and also wondering why you can't just do that all the time. These experiences shine a bright light on some of the core principles of recovery. They teach us that all the things our bodies and minds do when threatened are okay and even useful in the right circumstances. This really brings the proper response at the wrong time concept into full view. When this happens, take the lesson. I'm hoping you won't have to make any emergency trips to hospitals in the near future, of course. But if you are confronted with an emergency that plays out this way, or if you have in the past, reflect on it as the ultimate proof of the irrational, baseless nature of fear that feels so real, but is built on nothing. Anxious people are often rock stars in times of urgency or emergency, but that means they're rock stars all the time, even when they refuse to acknowledge that.

Today I have the pleasure of speaking with the new CEO for Med-Ex Health, Naman. How are you today? Very good, Tracy. Thanks for having me on. You've barely been the CEO for one week when we have outstanding news just put out. You've got a commercial distribution agreement with Vitamed Biomedical. Let's start there. Absolutely, Tracy. We're really excited. Although I've been the CEO for just a week of Med-Ex, I have been managing the European Theater Europe, Middle East and Africa now for about a year and a half. Tracy, this is a result of about a year's work and a new methodology that I put in when I arrived in the region of testing out the market and the partner rather than the technology that we know works very well. And what we did was we put in a number of pilots in the European Theater that have matured and Vitamed in Italy is the first one that will be going to a full commercial contract. So the timing was really very, very good for me. Obviously, as I arrived to see the fruition of my work over the last year, year and a half in the European Theater, and I'm looking forward to expanding this globally to all the markets that Med-Ex is looking at currently.  It was basically a promotion. You've been a director. Is that not correct? You're head of International Sales predominantly. You were involved in that big European deal in England. Is that correct? Yes, correct. The Health Partners deal is one of the deals that I've been working on in the region, along with the deals that were done in the Middle East with the Al-Zahrawi group in Dubai and in Saudi Arabia, along with a team member that I recruited for the region to manage Africa and the Middle East. So yes, it has been a wonderful promotion and I'm really happy to be able to continue the work at this higher level. Many of us have been following Med-Ex Health for the last several years ever since we were introduced to the idea that you were focused. The company's been focused on becoming a global leader in teledermatology. Tell us more about how you're going to take that vision forward. Absolutely. So the idea over here really is to focus on one of the most dangerous life-threatening indications, which is pigmented lesions and melanoma. That is what we have been able to do through our sciastopy technology, which is unique in the world. But also we want to grow our offering across indications to other skin conditions. So we will be launching very closely a camera, an HD camera, that will be adapted to our DermSecure platform and offer that to our existing client-based as well as our new clients. The vision is to not only lead the market in technology, but also in information and in data. A lot of these customers are giving us valuable data through the scans that we are currently collecting that will in the future be able to be used for research and development in the field of dermatology. Well, Neman, thank you so much for joining us today and for everybody out there at Investor Intel Land. I know you care about revenue. I urge you to read this news release. Neman, we're going to have you on very regularly. Again, thank you for joining us today. Congratulations on your new position as CEO. Thank you, Tracy. Thank you for having me. We're very excited.


The following is a presentation of TFNN, the Tiger Technician Hour with your host, Hazel Chapman. Call now, toll-free at 1-877-927-6648. Double speaking before I say let me get out of Skype and call back, and now I can't get back on someone, right on the telephone, the old fashioned way. Alright, so this is what we're looking at. You see the dial is down 183 at 34255. Now I want to do this real quickly. I'll give you these are the charts that we're looking at, the technique that I use. This is the top right here, August 1st for the dial, and then we wait until we wait to see when the 9-speed moving average, or they could be upgraded to a cell mode, and it eventually turned down pink, and then there was a one day, a couple of days ago, where it went green again, the 9-14 went first immediately, and now look, here's the grays, the price of the dial. But look at this, here's the S&P with one hand, here's the S&P. Look at that, it also turned down to pink. This is a data chart, but wait a minute, the QQQ a couple of days ago went pink, 60.39. Here's the IWM. The IWM has gone green since it went pink way back early August, but wait, look what happened, the weekly chart on the Russell 2000 just turned pink. This is the weekly chart, the others haven't yet, so it's going to be really important. I'm going to discuss my scenario in a moment, let's just get back to the data charts and I'll show you something else. The SMHs, the semiconductors are really important. They're very weak today, they're down to $1.68, 141.94. Look at this, the 9 is way under the 14, the price is way under the 9, it's the exact opposite of what we're looking at in the dollar, where the dollar is way above the green 9-speed moving average and the 9 is way above the 14 at 105.49. Look what happened to gold, gold was trying to cross positive and then it did cross positive for a couple of moments and yesterday it had a very nice move, hit the 200 period exponential moving average and now it's down sharply, down 26. So this is a market that we've got to monitor really closely. Look at the TLT, that's the bonds, down almost two points, 91.11. Now I expand it to the downside and here's the TBT, that is the opposite. This is the short side of the ultra-short nemen, sharply higher, prices over the 9, 9, over the black 14 period moving average. We've got to monitor all of this very, very closely. So as I go back to my charts right here, I could see just on the one minute chart that we were getting, I had this arch formation, I drew this in, I didn't subscribe, people in the den could see it as it was coming on. Before 10 o'clock I had already drawn this at 10 minutes at 10. I was drawing this arch formation, made a peak D, hit the 200 period moving average reverse and I drew a one to one to the left side which said at about 9.53 the left side low of 8.30 around about, let me give you the exact price in the one minute chart, that was at 44.25, that would be hit when it did it and it went below it, went to trough E right there, and now you've got A, B, we're in leg C to the upside, as a very oversold early morning, Selov is now attempting, and this is the thing that's been worrying me for a couple of, I'd say for about a week and a half, is that the market was so optimistic, every time, every interday, there was a nice rally in the market and by the end of the day, most of the days they'd have given it up, given it up quite badly actually, so that just seems to me there was way too much optimism going into the Fed speak, so this is kind of a scenario I'm looking at right now. The day's young, so anything can happen. What I would like to see is a very weak close today, at least the Dow below 130 and the S&P below 32, tomorrow, Friday, going into over the weekend, everyone's talking about the end of the market, the rates are going to the moon, blah, blah, blah, and then Monday we get that really strong reversal, if today we close only 40 points down and tomorrow's just a meandering day, you can't do it. I want an acceleration, a three-day acceleration, right into Monday's low and then we should see the VIX index, it's actually a little, there's another problem. The VIX index trading right now, I'll tell you what it is, trading at 16.42 up $1.28, let me get out of that ESZ23 and then we'll get back to the daily charts, weekly charts, etc. Right here, one hand, getting quite good at this, maybe it's all that tennis I play, the VIX index. Yeah, look at that, this is the VIX index, just five days ago it's down to the 12, now it's 16.45, 12 to 16, four points, 30% off, this is a big gain. But what's really interesting is that the load that was made a few days ago at 15.57, the load that we're looking at is 12.73, the week of the 23rd of July of 1973 and retested at 12.74, one penny higher. So this is a peak A, that's a peak B, but we have not stolen active being a big B. So I wouldn't be surprised if we actually do get a late C over the coming few days and that goes over 18.88. So you won't get that unless the market really starts to turn down again a little later today and then goes like the Dow goes 180 down, the S&P goes back to 45, minus 45, but at this particular point, even with which we've gone higher in the VIX index and the amount of move that we've made down in the general market is not quite proportional, maybe the VIX on the last two days got a little too excited. I mean, maybe there has to be some kind of a rally in the market that the VIX can pull back. Now, if the VIX by the end of the day, it closes above 16, it's a 16.48 today and then tomorrow they could be really, I wouldn't be surprised that the dollar, look, the dollar, remember for maybe a year and a half, I mean maybe it's even two years, I've been emphasizing the family methodology, the G is important, but when you get to G, I invariably have a parallel count, say G-C, in this case it's an F, why is it an F? Because that high right there is below that T, that's E-C, F-C, and now we've got a D. When you get to a D, other things can happen. I need to talk a little more about the dollar and the other currency, the battle chapter. I'll be right back and we're going to try to get back on.

That means I can take this off in a second just to look live. I'm getting all my charts back from Trade Station. You'll see me after you get back there.  We're all set, and now the charts will come back. As the charts are coming back, let me just talk a couple of moments about what I'm looking at here. The larger trend has gone from the daily being very... I wouldn't say serious, but it's been very important to monitor it because I've had cell signals that have gone to cell modes in all the key indices in the daily charts. Within that context, the weekly charts, as I've said now, really for quite some time, I have nothing in the weekly charts that's up until yesterday that even suggests that they're going to give me a change from the buy mode to at least a sell signal. That makes the close going into Friday for a clock where the weekly charts close each bar in each time frame, and that'll be the weekly time frame. What happens there is going to be very important going into Monday. That would be that we get almost a sell signal at Friday's close, and then into Monday it's like a sell mode because it's so sharply down, and then we get that big reversal. It's a possibility, but there are a couple of things that I'm looking at here that says, this is probably a process that we're looking at. The Fed has been very articulate in saying for them it's a process, and therefore I have to look at it and say within each sector, and I did this on my subscribers when I do my weekly video, which is about an hour long video where I'm looking at what's happened, what we're looking at in terms of positions we have, as well as what I'm anticipating, and in that context what's really, I would say key is what happens with the weekly charts in relation to everything that we're looking at. Now let me just do this, I'm going to expand this out, and let's just go through it separately. I've got questions that I've been asked. I will get to them, but I'd rather just at the moment show you. That is not just a spec. This is not just a little piece of a crust of a bread or a toast right here. That is the price of the TLT trading at $91.28. $92.23 was the low back in around the 21st or so of August, and it goes all the way back. Maybe you know it'll be even better. Let me do this on a weekly basis because I am going to be talking weekly charts. So let's not mess around. Let's just go straight to the weekly charts. So here we are in Leg D to the downside in the TLT. Most importantly, what I am looking at here is there was a left side, right side price time match. I chose a particular candle as the midpoint as the plum line, from which you can count the number of bars on the left, going up to the number of bars on the right, going down back to that point of $91.85. It's a little extra, it's about four weeks longer than I was anticipating, but today we did it. But look, the MACD is weak, the stochastic is very weak at 15%, but on this chart, the unbalanced volume, this blue line says, you are really close to at least an attempt to get back into the 92s, the 92s in the TLT, right? But it doesn't say it's going to happen. It just says, remember I use the unbalanced volume. So the only thing I use as my overbought and oversold readings, I use other things, of course, but that's the one that I say, that's getting overbought. I don't say the stochastic at 15% is oversold. That's what all the books tell you that under 20% is oversold and over 80% is overbought. I say that, I don't know how they came up with that. It is fantastic. Look, when the price holds in the stochastic above 80%, the market is doing well. When it's under 80%, you've got to be careful. When it goes just to 80% or over for a couple of bars and then breaks down, watch out, you're in serious trouble. So I don't like the term. I say that that's what you, if it's over 80%, that's what you want to see if you're long. If it's under 20% and you're short, that's what you want to see. So okay, with that said, now let me do a couple of other things. That's the TLT. Look at the dollar in the weekly chart. Well, the dollar has all this left side resistance that is testing right now. And that's back in February of this year, the week of the 24th, it goes to 105.32, 105.36, the week of the 3rd of March, and then it goes to 105.68. This is the dollar index, the week of the 10th, and then it starts to come down. Well, we're just revisiting that area.  The orange 200-period exponential moving average perfectly. What a beautiful indicator this is. A tool that you just put there, you don't have to use it until you have to use it. And when you use it, look what it did today in the one-minute chart. Look at this. Look, the guy you got repelled from this 200-period exponential moving average. Just one tool, do you have to use it? Can you make fun of it? Sure you can, but you better use it when you need it. Right here, look at this. Look at the way it tried to hold over there back at 3.40. I was at yesterday, it must have been, it was at this morning on the 21st. Yeah, that's this morning, early in the morning. Look, it couldn't break above it. And then it touched it once. It was goodbye. It was goodbye from 4.30 in the morning until it retested it just a little while ago. Right here, I'm scrolling to the right. When did it retest it? Right there. You always get a clue with the 200-period moving average. It gets close, gets repelled, but then if it holds pretty well, it's going to break above it and that's what it did. Now let's get back to our weekly charts. As we go to the break, the dow is down 100 and 107. There's a beat down 37. How about that? I'll be right back.

I don't want to run out of time to do the questions. The question came about Eli Lilly. You remember, I said, I would be waiting on Lilly because it's had a spectacular move. It needs to be pulling back a little bit more. Great company. If it does make this arch formation, I said, and the nine-period moving average does go pink. That means you've got more time, but the whole area, I said, give me a yell at 550, I think it said 553 to 551. We're at 553 right now. It was actually at 568 round number high this morning before, as it gapped down. No, I need more time on this. And that's the, if you look at this, you look at Merck, Merck, holding on the 200-period moving average. It has to be up 26 cents today, 107.56. If you could know of a disc, I wonder if I've notated that recently. I remember doing it. Nova Nordisk, and I think I did, but now it's gone. Breaking down. There are many others. ABB, I haven't actually updated this for quite a while. ABBI, is that what it is? ABBI. ABBI. Well, I went to remember it right now. I thought it was ABBI. I guess it's not. Maybe it was taken over something. So all of these particular stocks are just saying to me, let's go back to Merna. You remember, Moderna, I said, got away, you got away. It's holding quite well above the left side low at 95. It's at 101 right now. So just give it a little time. So the question, ABBV. Oh, of course it's ABBV. But Demi is so helpful. Thank you, Dan. Yeah, ABBV. This is holding much, much better. It's a different kind of company. And this is ABBV. This is a conglomerate, and I can't remember who it was with. Anyway, it's in the pharmaceutical area. Maybe biotech. Holding much, much better. This is one that I would actually look at sooner than Eli Lilly. Not that Lilly's, there's anything wrong. I just think Lilly is in the digestive phase. This is one that says I'm still holding really well, even with the marketplace, so shaky. And that's what I was talking about when I showed at least three of all these. Remember, I showed you AAP for subscribers. I said, this is advanced order parts. Look how horrible this is. And yet look at AZO. Same area, order zone. Even now, as we're speaking, it's still within a dozen, so at 2,543, the all-time high, one of the most recent I should say, was in the 26, 2630s, holding quite well. And the other one was Orly, oh, RLY. Look at this. Holding much, even closer to its all-time highs. If you go to the bank stocks, look at this. You've got Berkshire Hathaway. It's in the financials. It's not a bank, but it's in the financials. So I'm showing it. Berkshire Hathaway, look at that. Near all-time highs. All-time highs. This is Berkshire Hathaway. It is the United States economy. It's in everything that's important.  Finishing, you just name it. Banking, just it's a plethora of different things in every field. And yet look how well it's holding. But look at this, Bank of America. It's way down here, faltering. So I wanted to just mention that it's in the sector. Let's go to, look at RIG. This is Trans Ocean. Pulling away, it just hasn't been able to break out with oil doing so well. Yet it's still holding pretty well. But look at Exxon Mobil. This is a, I mean, a multi-trillion dollar company. Look, it made that peak C right there. And then it made the leg D. And today it's making, and then yesterday it made a peak D. There it is, D. And it's almost at the, at the highs. So all of these things are doing different things. So let's go back to Lilly. And the question was, Lilly, and I'm just going to say, hold off on Lilly. And I'm going to make, of course, I've already moved quickly past it at every, let me write that down, every, I'm going to just keep it for subscribers as something that we might consider in that area because it's holding so well, but not yet. Okay. So with that said, next question came in. Could I just do Apple quickly? Look at Apple. I don't know if you can do it quickly. I didn't just say the dreaded age pattern. The week hasn't closed. Anything can happen. You've got until Friday at four, but it's gone. Look, there's the S. That means that it's gone from a cell signal in the weekly chart. I have to wait for Friday, but it's possible it's going to go to a cell mode, meaning it's probably going to take out the 171.96 left side low of August. So we're watching that closely. What was it? Microsoft. Microsoft. Where did that go? Where did I type it? Type, type, type. We'll put it over there. Microsoft. Microsoft arching over peak D doji candle. The weekly chart has got this arch formation. 366.78 was the old time high back at the beginning of July. And yet it is a 321. It looks like it wants to take out this left side low. It's going to be very important week coming up. What was the apple? Amazon. Amazon. This is the retail sector. I'm sure you can actually call it retail. There's a peak D down arrow in a cell mode in the daily gap down today. It's down forward 131. That weekly chart made a leaky. It's almost certainly going to be a peak E. And look at the weekly charts. I'm going to open these up to show you some fantastic things that happened in the market. Look at 146.57 was the high in July of last year. I think it was July or August last year. It plummets down to 80. I would have to say that's 40 something percent decline. 143.63 was the high. Just four or five weeks ago. Just three points underneath the previous high. And then what does it do? It has a big spike last week. And it goes to 145.86 within a point less than a point. Let me just put that in 145. I can't believe this. It's within one point of a high that was over a year ago. And now it's pulling back. So I am calling this a huge digestive phase. I know there are a lot of people talking about the crash. That's coming. I'm talking about the S&P which is training at 43.65 going down to the 4,000 level. You could be a hundred percent correct. All I'm saying is from my eye because it's taken so much time with so much damage in so many different areas and different stocks that we've already accomplished a chunk of the digestive phase. We just might need a little bit of follow through in the weekly charts. So immediately to a cell mode and that gets switched within a week or two as the markets come back again. I don't know. I'm just saying that's the way I'm looking at it just based on all the evidence. Yes, you can get an RH in the same thing that I'm talking about that you can get. Look at this. Home Depot. There's a weekly chart. Home Depot. Look at that. How it holds so well. 27.25 was the high back in 2022. Pulls back, has a balance and a balance is to where? It balances to 341.47. That was the week of the third of February of this year. It goes all the way to test for three for about two months. It tests the 200-period moving average. It decides to go. I see with the Bible, the ABCD has a quick pullback goes to E and where's E? E is 28.17. It's the high we were looking at before. I'm 37. With the two and a half points announced, these double tops and bottom bottom bottoms are really important. That's why the TLT. We've got to monitor real closely. I'll be back. The Gold Report.

There's just, in today, there's just been too much optimism. I would, as I typed into the den, I would much rather see the Dow down about 370, 385 right now, going into a really ugly Friday even if we just return around Friday. Not Monday. But there's just not enough negativism here. Almost every day the worst of the Dow has been maybe 270 points occasional, 300 points down. And that's almost like programs selling. It's not like the public was just selling, saying, selling. Something's not right here. And that says to me, we're going to have to take time. This is a process. It's not a simple one and done. So with that said, a couple of questions came in. Would I look at, so this is the one-minute charge, you can see it's bumping up against the Chapman Wave, inside track, repellent zone right there, and the 200-period moving average magnet. So we're going to have to see. Can it get to, is it 44, 44.10 right now? Can it get to 44.22? That to me would 44.22 to 25 would be not just a breakout, we're saying, wow, we could see some buying and selling. I don't think that's the case. I think the sellers are there, the buyers are there, and they mix it up all day. So now what I want you to do is this, semiconductors. This is the weekly chart of the semiconductors. Look, we've got a Chapman Wave inside track, Propellent Zone, which very soon could become a repellent zone. You remember we saw that was that Apple, the weekly chart, Apple Week, yes, Apple Weekly Chart went out and it didn't even get to the resistance because it's making the dreaded H pattern which is a way more powerful thing than any channel because it tells you about the speed of the direction. The speed of the direction is in the H pattern when you go only to an A or a B and the next bars are really very weak. It says, be careful because that left side low, it's tempting to take it out. So let's go back to the SMHs and look, I'll show you this on each one. Here's the semiconductors just for clarity purposes and for just the clarification. We are short from 2.159 35 was the high. Two days later before the open, we went short the SMHs at one Oh, no, there was this one. Sorry, what am I talking about? This is a weekly chart. Let me just get this back up here and I'll show you something very interesting. We've got this right here. So here's the daily chart. On the 31st of July 161, 161.17 was the high. Oh, I was meant to show you that to show you the double tops. Isn't that amazing? 159.42 in November of 2021. Plumice down to 83, that's almost a 50% hacker, comes all the way back and makes it all time high at peak D in the weekly chart G-B in the monthly, I'm suspecting it's only a B, then the monthly and E at 161.17 on the 31st of July has doji candle, wonderful clue said to me Oh, gotta be careful because the very next day we went short to down the August the first Yeah, August the first and then the following day the second of August before the open at one 159 just over 159 we're sure we'll remain short and what's really fascinating about this is that we also use the SOX S three times short I had of the other day because we subscribed at two 1077 and it just got taken out and then that intraday market turned we never got back in and now look where the SOX three times long is so not complaining we've got our short positions not a problem but look at this leg D above the peak C at 1184 that was made back in August now look at this it's a red candle meaning that there's an attempt at a rally in the SMH's but look at that 1184 hide which 1207 days young this is a daily chart but look at that beautiful I forgot to type this in I thought I had it and then it got taken out when my program closed suddenly the other day look at this this is the chapter wave technique of the plum line there's your plum line there's your midpoint and anticipating the same number of bars on the left side to get you to the same number of bars on the right and look it missed it by one day and today took it out says a day late but it certainly achieved what it needed to achieve so this says on the shorter term the SMH's look at this have taken out the left side low just as the SOXS three times long short took out the upside so 143 35 was the low should have put the date on the 18th of August and today's low is 141 27 isn't this fascinating I don't know if we did the one to one to the left side no it's a day late yeah it's a day late year as well for the art formation with the plum line and but now look at the weekly chart there's your dreaded H what's the dreaded H in the chapter wave methodology we use three basic core patterns one's the straight line up or down straight line up or down others the cup formation others the art so it's just these three patterns and a mix of the three one and two or one and three this is one and three the dreaded H comes back down makes a dreaded H fails at a peak A takes it out fails at a peak A takes it out goes to the left side low goes to peak A B C now the fact that it's gone to a C says that you've used up quite a bit of energy to the upside but you've also kind of used up the energy for the for the downside smash so I would say we're very close to at least an attempt to get back to the 144s in the SMH's but the trend right now says the on balance volume that's this little line right here look at that that says it's not maybe if I extended out yeah even if I extended out you can see how oversold we were there when we had the big balances so this is not yet oversold enough stochastic said eight percent it's getting to the area that says very very weak let's go back to the the weekly chart and the weekly chart is holding quite nicely in terms of the on balance volume stochastic said forty one percent Mac these week and the 9p moving average is still nicely above the 14 but the direction is both of them are down and the price has gone under we've still got another day and a half to go I never like to make a call on a bar before the time is up you have to wait for the bar to conclude normally wait for the bar to conclude and then start the next bar because it could be a continuation pattern question about SLV or is it a statement SLV is the silver chart yep it is trying to turn around but you look you've got your dreaded H oh this pattern here if it makes a successful left side low it could bounce again and make an H to an M that's a lowercase H to a lowercase M pattern before it really takes it out or that'll be the turnaround to the upside so beginning watching this because this is the H hasn't taken out this left side low oh it has just did it the low was 2046 2045 20.45 in the SLV the week of the 30th of June and the low that's right oh it's hell good okay that's what we're talking about the lowercase H goes to the lowercase M how it falls to the left side to forth but that changes the week in 2036 like a magnet it's cool alright I'll be back you might think that if you want to be successful at trading in the stock market you're going to need a crystal ball after all it's impossible

to apply look I drew this in here's a chapter we've inside tracked repellent zone I joined those highs and I made that particular high where did the price of the E-mini go it went right to the number and then it turned around and it made a lower low and it took out the key support level so technical analysis is all about repeating patterns over and over and over I thought I'd do this because I was asked about so the SMHs where's the SMHs going as far as I can tell there's a really good chance that we're going to go into this ugly candle right here and that's the candle of the 26th of May with a high of 148.33 and it's got a 148 and a low of 127 and I would say the midpoint that's going to be really critical is 139 a close under 139 at any time says oh it's got even longer to go in time if it holds very well it says okay watch this maybe we can have another balance and then you can go to what was resistance and we'll see if the pink the 9p of moving average which is green in the weekly turns pink look you can go through any one of these applied advanced micro devices arch formation goes from a lowercase h to a lowercase m in the daily where's my mouse hey mouse there it is there it is and it goes in the weekly it goes through peak e and now it's pulling back under the 14p of moving average Nvidia this is the the leader of the group we spoke about this that was an aberration to the top at 502.66 and now it's trading at 416 and it looks very much like the weekly chart is starting to see the price go under the 14p moving average but that 9 is still way above the 14 and gives it room to bounce I can go through more now the question came in about the crude oil I never did crude oil the crude oil is holding well it's up 51 cents today right at the 9281 continuous contract high on the left side and the recent time was 9243 so here again you got the potential for these double tops and double bottoms we'll be seeing that over the next training sessions tomorrow in my Tiger technicians hour check out my opening

There is an important conference that will be taking place next week, that is from the 25th of October to the 27th of October, right here in St. Lucia. This conference is funded by the Korean World Bank Partnership Facility in collaboration with the World Bank. This is the very first time the Korean World Bank Partnership Facility and the World Bank are working together to have this large meeting where we'd have knowledge exchange. So we are very, very happy and feel very fortunate that this is happening right here in St. Lucia. We are looking to have 70 participants attend this conference. Half of the participants will be coming from St. Lucia and the other half are coming from overseas. Islands such as St. Vincent and the Grenadines, Dominica, Grenada, Jamaica, Belize, St. Martin will be represented. We have persons from the Korean World Bank Partnership Facility as well as the World Bank coming from countries like Colombia, Canada, Korea and many other countries. So we are looking at a wide range of persons coming on ground to be able to have discussions over a knowledge exchange over certain health topics. The health topics that we'll be covering over the three days are non-communicable diseases. Very important to us how we manage these diseases. We're also looking at hospital sector improvement or hospital sector management on the second day. And on the last day we're going to look at health management information system. We are also going to visit two sites during this three-day conference. The first day in the afternoon we'll all be heading, all the majority of us will be heading down to Ancelary Wellness Centre. Ancelary Wellness Centre is a PBF site. And when we talk about PBF we want persons to start thinking about screening and treatment of hypertension and diabetes and monitoring of how we do that. And one of the sites under the PBF is Ancelary Wellness Centre. So a large number of persons will be heading down to Ancelary Wellness Centre on the Tuesday, which is the first day of the conference. We are going to also visit on the second day in the afternoon the Owen King European Union Hospital. Very important for us. This is a new hospital and we have islands like St. Vincent who wants to know how did we move from the Victoria Hospital into the Owen King Union Hospital without having any deaths during the transfer. So that's very important for them and they want to know how we simultaneously open the respiratory hospital on the same day to deal with COVID-19 or respiratory related cases. So therefore it's a large knowledge exchange conference. We have lots of persons from different nations but it's important that persons know that these topics that are being discussed are very important as we try to accelerate or move to universal health coverage. Not only St. Lucian but many of the other islands want to accelerate into universal health coverage and this meeting or this conference is an excellent way to start off.


OK, so let me tell you about the Hore-Baffer construction. The starting point is a final complete intersection, X in F. The data for such a thing, lattice L, a rank R lattice, group homomorphism D from Z to the M to L, and C vectors, L1, LC, and L. Briefly, how you make a total complete intersection out this data, here L group characters of a torus, of a R dimensional torus to C star. So here, TR is the torus spec E of L, the group algebra of L of the complex numbers. And D can be interpreted duly as a bold L as a group homomorphism from TR to C star to the M and then encodes a representation with C star to the M. You can add diagonally on Cm. Yeah, I mean L. So R means L is a rank R lattice. And so then the torque variety is going to be a geometric quotient of Cm mod T. And as I said, I'll tell you later how to take this quotient. For today, just imagine that there's a way to take the quotient. And so Li's give Leiden bundles on F, especially because Li is, again, a character of T. So for example, you can interpret the sections of Li on F. Sorry, I use notation and call Li the corresponding Leiden bundle. Then those are just the polynomials in C x1 xm such that for every P in T, Ga equals Li of G F of A. And then x, vanishing locus of general sections of these lambas. So it is the variety of F1 and the section, the variety C, Fi, gamma, Fli are general. And we take this inside out. There are going to be some conditions on the data that ensure is a final orbital. So by the way, Don, I decided that you're right. And so I'm just going to call these things orbitals and not smooth orbitals. After all, I say manifold and I don't say smooth manifold. Is that the nature, the essential nature of your objection? No, OK. OK, I see. OK, so for me, OK. Well, we're happy for different reasons, but at least we're both happy. So I'm not going to spell these out these conditions because I don't know them, OK? This is an interesting problem in torque geometry, actually. So in fact, I'm just mentioning right here. Startling the orbital case, we don't know how to enumerate final orbital systematically by computer. We don't know enough about the matter to be able to do this. And in fact, we don't even know that in the manifold case, under the appropriate level of generality. We know a lot more about enumeration of complete intersection final manifolds in torque, in torque manifolds. We know a lot more about that problem. But we still don't know how to do it in the appropriate level of generality. Absolutely. It's easier. No, no, no, if it's a manifold, we know some good conditions. Uh-oh, I'm not giving you the conditions, but there are some algorithms and it's kind of clear what to do. Yes, yes, I will give some examples later in the course and the nature of the problem will become clearer, OK? But let me just at least say the final condition. Yeah, perhaps I should say at least, let me just put a little note here. So if I call di d of the ith basis element, OK, I will always at least assume this that if I look at the cone spanned by the di's, so by definition, this is the cone sum r plus di inside l tensor r. I assume that this is a strict cone. In other words, it contains no straight lines. And that ensures that the torque variety f is proper, projected in fact. And so we know by the adjun- so here's the key condition. So we know that by the adjunction formula that kx is the canonical of f plus the sum of the li restricted to x, OK? And so we will want that, you know, one condition is that minus kf minus sum of li. In other words, the minus k of f is the sum of the di's. Maybe I should call these lj's minus the sum of the lj's. I want this to be in the ample cone of f. I will talk about the ample cone of f later when I do torque varieties in a bit more detail. That's also the cone of stability conditions that we'll discuss. And so if that thing is ample of f, then it will follow that x is final, provided that it is an orbital. OK, so in order to do the Horivafa construction, we need a further key assumption. OK? So for every k in the set c, so I'm going to do square brats c for this set of integers 1 up to c, OK? There exists a subset sk of c. And I want sk intersection sl to be empty when k is different from l. And then I wanted my line bundle lk. Well, no, because I want the line bundle lk be the sum over i in sk of di. So indeed, if there are no lines, this discussion includes the case where there are no line bundles. And then in that case, there will be no s's. And we're just discussing the torque varieties of. Yeah, I know. Yeah, so no, because you see lk is just an element of l. Yeah, yeah, yeah, sorry, sorry, sorry, sorry, you're right. This is no, no, you're absolutely right. Sorry, sorry, sorry, sorry, sorry. For each k, these are subsets of m. Thank you very much. Very good. There is a tragedy in my written work done that there are misprints everywhere. And I just don't know how to fix this problem. You know, this is a strange condition and we'll discuss it a little bit. It is often believed that we know how to do mirror symmetry for completeness structures in torque variety. Nothing is further from the truth. We need this key assumption, all right? To write the mirror, let's choose a basis of l. Then your d is now a matrix, d, the ji. And you take y to be given by these equations. I take product, the dji, and this is from j equal one to r. So I have r equations here, equal one, sorry. And I take sum i in sk xi equal one. And so this is k in c, so that's c more equations. And I take this thing inside c to the m, in fact, c star to the m. And I take the function w from y to c to be defined by the sum of over i naught in the union of the sk of xi. And this is the Horivath mirror. Yes, the ds is not a basis, it's not a basis, it's just a set of vectors, 0, 1, yes. I will give you an example today of something that does not satisfy the extension, I'll ask some questions to people about it. So you will come back to this. Yes, so let me make here some comments maybe. So what would be, well I told you that this is the mirror, but what does that mean? So what's a mirror theorem, what should the mirror theorem say? So the mirror theorem should say the g hat of x equal the pi w, the period of this thing, y with the function w, let me put it like this, of t. Okay, under some conditions, and we don't know this, we know this in many cases, in some cases, for example, the case where we know it is when x is a manifold, sorry, f is a manifold, the torque right itself is smooth, and when all the line bundles are neff, well then in this case we do it's a theorem due to give and talk, but not in the desired generality. In fact, even when f is a manifold, it's not natural to assume that the l i's are neff, but that's maybe a wrinkle, more importantly, when f is an orbifold, when x is an orbifold, then really especially x is an orbifold. Okay, and so let me just say the reason that we don't know much in the case when, in fact, we know extremely little in what x is an orbifold is that we understand very little, there's many open problems in the Gromov-Witzen theory of orbifolds, so we don't know how to handle this g hat function. There are some conjectures and blah, blah. But we know very little, Andrea there is an expert on this problem. So let me, now let's discuss an example. So let's consider cubic surface in P3, so P3 is an example of the torque variety and then x3 is a torque completeness section. Given tau, it teaches us to do the following. So first we take the i function of x and this is just this power series here, some 3D factorial. Okay, maybe before I even look at this, so what's the data for this torque completeness section? Well, d will be a map from z3 to z, z being my l. Now, and it's just the element 3 of z, okay, the line battle of degree 3. And d is the matrix 1, 1, sorry, z4, we're in P3, 1, 1. Then using this data, given tau teaches us to do this, the i function is this thing here. So let me, so 3, because we're looking at a cubic surface. Not if we're looking at the quartic, the clubial, and there we take 4. So later in the course towards the end, if I have time, I may teach you some of these things. For now, I'm just saying where do these numbers come from? Well, the 3D is this 3 here, d to the 4 is because I have 4 ones. And so note that this thing here is 1 plus 6t plus ot squared, okay? And then given tau tells us that the g function, g x of t is e to the minus 6t times i. Sorry, let me just write instead of 6, I write c, some constant c. And then c equals 6 is uniquely determined such that to ensure that then g of t is 1 plus t squared plus, sorry, 1 plus bigger of t squared. So you know what the g function is. And then oribaf gives us, tells us, you know, follow the instructions written there. Yes, of course, because the graph written in variance are deformation in the, they don't, they are deformation in variance. I was supposed to take, well, you know, the variables for p3, I call them x0, x1, x2, and x3, and so I have x0, x1, x2, x3 equal 1. And then x1 plus x2 plus x3 equal 1. So here I take s to be the set 1, 2, and 3. And so these last three ones. And so that three there is the sum of these three ones. And w is the function x0 from y to c. So I want to briefly demonstrate that the period for this thing is indeed what you want it to be. And so that the thing works in this case. And so I prefer to reparameterize this thing as a torus. And the function w is a low-run polynomial. y as a torus, c star squared, and w a low-run polynomial. I do this, I write, well, see, I solved for x0. And so now I eliminate x0, so y is just x1 plus x2 plus x3. Yeah, so this y here lives in c star to the 4, as written. And then now I look at some sort of 3 equal 1 inside c star cube. And then on y, the function is 1 over x1, x2, x3. I'm going to reparameterize y by a torus, c star squared, with coordinate x and y by declaring that x1 equal 1 over 1 plus x plus y, x2 equal x over 1 plus x plus y and x3 equal y over 1 plus x plus y. And then I work with y equals c star squared and w equal 1 over x1, x2, x3, which then comes out as 1 plus x plus y cubed over x times y. Yes, it's a subset. Why is a subset? Absolutely, yes. Oh, that 1 plus x plus y is, yeah. Neither is technically a subset of the other, I suppose. These are all in C cross by definition. Yes, yes. So let me sort of picture this La Ramp polynomial. These are dots in Z2. Z2 is the space of monomials in x and y. And I put a cross here where I put the constant monomial. And so this is the Newton polygon of w. And now I'm going to write the coefficients of each of the dots. And there's a 6 there in the middle. And here you can see that the period of w defined as yesterday, integral 1 over 1 minus tw, integrating along omega, equals indeed the i function. And both satisfy this differential equation here. d squared minus 3d plus 1, 3d plus 2 equals 0. No, it is absolutely right. Sorry, right, right, right, right, right. I hat where I put an additional de-factorial here. And I think that does correspond to the g is w minus 6. Let me call it w prime. All you have to do is to shift it by 6. W prime for w minus 6 gives pi w prime of t equal g hat of t. And I don't want to write the differential equation for that because it isn't as nice. But it's no longer a hypergeometric differential equation. There is something here I don't know. It's a curious thing, OK? But in some sense, a shift by a constant is not a very important, it's not a very fundamental obstacle. And so what I'm saying is that the Horivafa procedure does not give me the perfect thing that I want. Yes, right, right. So this process here is, in fact, one could say a bit more, is the mirror map. And there is a mirror map both on this side here and on that side there somehow. And it's somehow the same mirror map. I don't know what that means. Let's forget for the moment Horivafa. I just wanted to give you a construction of mirror symmetry that we will elaborate on during the course. And so I want to finish this bit of contextualization here.  I can't hear you. Doing the cubic. I'm not doing the quartet, I'm doing the cubic surface.  So we understand that mirror symmetry is about torque degenerations, OK? So that's something to take home from Gross-Zebert and lots of other people. So let me just give you a couple of definitions just to allow me to discuss this. A final polytope is a lattice polytope in some z to the n. And such that, we are going to ask that the origin of z to the n is strictly in the interior of p, sorry. It's a polytope in rn, OK? And being a lattice polytope means that the vertices of p are in zn. And two, I want that the vertices primitive in zn. To give the final polytope is the same thing as to give a toric fan of variety and not smooth. And so a final polytope p gives me a toric fan of variety, which I'm going to note by x sub p. And this is the toric variety with fan, a spanning fan. And so don't worry too much about this. If you don't know about toric varieties, this is something I'm going to tell you more about. Let's just think about the data set here. It's a lattice polytope. So in fact, these are n. I always think of it in the toric geometry setting as n tensor r. n is n. So then I'm going to say that a final orbital, x, is class Tg. And so Tg means toric generalization. There exists a qg degeneration, x sub p. So here qg stands for q Gorenstein degeneration. And that's a technical condition that means that the degeneration is nice. And I'm not sure I'm ever going to talk about it in this course. But there's a nice degeneration to a toric variety. And so the idea is that this is the correct class of things for which it makes sense to look for a mirror. And so mirror symmetry starts by choosing a polytope p. And then it talks about rates. The mirror symmetry works for deformations. If you like more precisely, perhaps, deformation families, x p, Laurent polynomials, certain Laurent polynomials, nu to f equal p. And so here are some of the questions that we want to address in the longer term for the longer term. So for example, given p, understand deformation x p to orbitals. And question two, given p1 and p2, two polytopes, when x p1 and x p2 have deformations in common? These are hard questions in algebraic geometry about which we don't know a lot. And then ideally, at the end of a long time, we'll have some result that says something like this. There is a one-to-one correspondence between QG families of class TG. In other words, the whole deformation family of Fano orbitals of class TG. And this is going to be in one-to-one correspondence with certain Fano polytopes, those for which x p admit a deformation to an orbifold. And then to identify those p that have deformations in common. And so let me just call this mutation. And then that, in fact, let me do another one-to-one correspondence between a certain Laurent polynomials, F with new to F equal p, also up to mutation. Well, I don't need to call the new to F equal p. Certain Laurent polynomials are not mutation. So this we hope to do in the very long term. We don't know that. So let me come to that in a moment, OK? In this course, we will tell you a combinatorial recipe. So this is in the paper called the Laurent inversion. Owl, casp chick. I don't know who all the authors are. There is Tom Coates. There is also Thomas Prince. And maybe some other people, I'm not sure. Owl. That's it. OK, very good. So this is on the archive. It's a combinatorial recipe. You start from a polytope. And then there will be some combinatorial games to be played on this polytope. And when they work, there is not going to always be possible to do it, they will produce both a deformation of xp as a complete intersection, as a toric complete intersection.  The serious thing to do is to do this program inside the gross zebras machine, which we're working on. But I'm not talking about that. Instead, I will just tell you this particular combinatorial recipe that in practice works in a lot of cases, sometimes in the majority of cases. And it allows to make long lists of final GPS. So that's what we're going to try to tell you. To conclude, I just want to give you an example. So consider a toric complete intersection, x66 and p, weight a projected space. This is really simple, 22333. This is a very nice orbital. It's a surface. It has four singularities, four quotient singularities that form a third 1, 1. It's final. Minus k of x is 0, 1. And it has degree k squared equal a quarter, a third. 6 times 6, yeah, a third. Very nice orbital. The i function of x, if you follow your nose, you follow given tau, you will write sum 6d factorial squared over 2d factorial squared, and then 3d factorial t to the d. OK, so this happens to be 1 plus 600t plus o t squared. So if you want the g, then you're supposed to take e to the minus 600t times i. Then anyway, it's a harmless operation. And this indeed has to do the orbit fold Gram-of-Witton theory of x, though in a slightly subtle way and you want to ask an explanation, you can ask Andrea, you can tell you about that. And this does not satisfy the condition of Horibafa. So we cannot make a Horibafa mirror of this thing. And perhaps I should try to wrap this up. We cannot make a Horibafa mirror of this. We know that the mirror exists. g hat, perhaps you should also say one thing, it does not have a toric degeneration. It's a theorem. It's obvious because minus k is empty. g hat, i hat, if you like, are of geometric origin because they satisfy a hypergeometric differential equation. And we know by Nick Katz that all hypergeometric equations are of geometric origin. And therefore, a mirror exists somewhere, even in the low level sense, even though I cannot write down one explicitly for you. Yes, but as we learned from the example of the cubic, that type of shift just means that if I find one for i hat, I just shift it by a constant. Indeed, it will not be Laurent Poirot. I agree. I agree. Well, I don't know because if I know. Yeah, so perhaps it's a function. I certainly can subtract a constant. Perhaps I'm not 100%. Fine, fine, fine. I take the point, it's OK. I want to, I don't know. This is a question to everybody to come and discuss this matter with me if you want. Stop here.


Live from the Fairmont Hotel in San Jose, California, it's theCUBE at Big Data SV 2015. Welcome back everybody, this is theCUBE. We are live at Big Data SV 2015 in San Jose. I'm Jeff Kelly with Wikibon. I'm here with my co-host, Jeff Frick. We're joined in this segment by John Cardente, who's a distinguished engineer with the corporate CTO office at EMC. John, welcome to theCUBE. Thank you, thank you for having me. So we've been talking, we've been covering Big Data Week here on Big Data SV. Obviously we've got Strata Hadoop World going on. What are your impressions of the week? It's great, Strata is always a great conference. It's great to see sort of the mix of some of the academic stuff, the research stuff and some of the commercial stuff. You get to see how the two worlds are really coming together and how things are starting to transition from one to the other. Yeah, absolutely. And one of the themes we've been covering this week is, and we've been hearing over and over, is that the conversation is definitely shifting from the infrastructure tools and technology to some of the use cases, some of the applications that are going to be able to be built on top of the great technology that's been innovative. And that's what we're going to talk to you about today is some really interesting project you're working on around essentially a climate data lake. Why don't you tell us a little bit about, tell us about the project. So our corporate sustainability office has been interested for a long time in finding a project where we can bring our technologies to bear on something meaningful for the climate. And so earlier in the year, they started talking to a nonprofit called the Earthwatch Institute that's based out of Cambridge, Massachusetts that are on this idea of investigating this particular area of science. And so, you know, climate change is happening, right? Regardless of what you think the reasons are, there's a lot of evidence to say that the climate is happening. But what most people don't realize is that climate and weather is nature's clock. A lot of things in nature happen based on weather patterns. And so what's starting to happen as the world warms and the seasons shrink is that you have things like trees budding and fruits flowering and insects emerging earlier, whereas migratory birds are still on the same schedule. And so what we're finding, what the scientists are finding are that these birds don't have a food supply to power them through their migration. So it's starting to affect the populations. And so there's this hypothesis and some evidence that it's happening, but the data sets required to really dig into this to really understand how big of a problem this is are all separated. They're all being collected and maintained by different non-profits. And so with Earthwatch, Acadia National Park, National Phrenology Network, and the Scootick Institute, we're bringing all this stuff together in one data lake to start to enable scientists to collaborate more meaningfully. So we'll talk a little bit about the concept of the data lake. We hear that a lot on theCUBE and elsewhere, but this is really going to be an example of applying that concept to a real world problem. So I like to think of a data lake as more of an analytics environment. And I think simply focusing on a particular layer in the stack doesn't solve the full problem. And so at EMC and the corporate CTO office, we take the view of what are people trying to do with data? What's the environment that they need to fulfill their goal? And let's start from there. And so in this case, we're not only bringing in some of our storage technologies, but also all of our pivotal technologies and our cloud foundry technologies and stuff to really build in the long-term a platform that enables this thing called citizen science, which I refer to it as the Hadoop for phenology. And phenology is the science of timings in nature, because it requires people to go out and observe in the field. And the only way this scales is to engage citizens to go out and do it for us. And so that's really what we're trying to do is not only enable scientists to settle in on particular data sets, to set aside any debate on the data and not the science, but also to engage the citizen scientists so that we get more data, yeah. Kind of bringing together kind of the crowdsourcing concept with big data. Exactly. Exactly. And kind of the data lake has almost a data OS, right? Because what are you going to do that it's really not just this static thing that's sitting over there. It's actually kind of a part of the whole process. Exactly. So I almost shy away from the term now because I just like the, thinking about the whole picture, right? I don't want to get distracted with what any preconceived notions or data lakes are or what those kinds of things. So thinking about the whole environment really and what we're trying to do there is a full stack. Right. And then it just seems also interesting too as you're collecting all this data. You said a lot of it's human generated. Absolutely. It's the citizens that are distributed. But you know, we're all packing these things too. And as the sensor data gets better and better and better in these, you know, in term, including climate data, it seems like the opportunity to get kind of pinpoint data points. Absolutely. And so in a high level of detail on a number of factors it's just going to go up exponentially. So we did a one week expedition in Acadia National Park in October where we brought, you know, folks from EMC, folks from SCUDIC and some of the research scientists all together to not only get a better understanding to sync up on what the science was and what the problem was, we did our own citizen science exercises without watch birds and stuff. And so those of us from EMC, you know, we're like, well, this is great. We'll just make a mobile app. You'll be able to plug it in and we're good to go. And what we're finding is that there's a big population or proportion of the citizen scientists population are either elderly or people who don't have access to technology. And so they're still very paper-driven. And so, you know, we're actively trying to work with all the organizations to figure out how we can accommodate those folks but also start using some technologies to make this a little bit more efficient but also more engaging in the sense that we can give people alerts to say, hey, that data that you contributed, it just showed up in this research over here. So, you know, here's a, thank you. Thank you for that. Right, an appreciation, but also some alerts to say, we think that there's going to be something interesting to happen. So if you had the time, can you go out to this place and look for some migratory birds and stuff? So we think there's a lot of value in that but we have to get over the, you know, the lack of technology in some areas. And are there some real specific applications that are driving this forward? And then there'll be other applications that come out of it. You talked about the specific bird example and migratory birds and their food sources and things blooming. I mean, is that, are there a few of those that some really interested party said, these are the things we really want to dive into or did that kind of come out of a more general purpose approach and was something that surfaced? There's so many, it seems like the interconnections are so vast. Well, in a way it's a win-win, I think, for everyone in that here's an area of very important science that needed some help to really get a handle on the problem. But I look at it as a great use case for our at scale collaborative analytics, right? So if we really focus on engaging the wider citizen science population, both giving them tools to visualize and explore the data sets, but also eventually maybe do their own modeling and engage with the scientists, that model of collaborative analytics is broadly applicable, right? So we can bring that back to the enterprise and we can start to enable enterprise customers to do some very sophisticated things. And so that, not only are we motivated to help out with the environment and 100% of our customers live on this planet, so it's good to take care of it. I appreciate it. Until we colonize the moon. Yeah, until we colonize the moon, that's right. But it also gives us a great proving ground to develop some technologies that we can then bring back to product. I was just gonna say, and then what about historical data? Historical weather data, historical public or government data sets. Are you incorporating that? Absolutely. What's the scale of this type of data set? So right now we're taking basically one time dumps from a lot of different data repositories. Some of it is from the NCDC, the National Center for Climate Stuff, and then we're getting dumps from some of the nonprofits that have been collecting this observational data. But over time, what we're working with all these partners on are a way to make connectors and feeds so that we can get incremental updates and start to act as a clearinghouse for some of this stuff. And then maybe also a hub of sorts for researchers to share data through the singular repository. And so over time, the data's gonna grow. Hopefully it gets more dynamic and more real time. Right, right. Do you see this as a potential model for addressing other big societal challenges? Generally, and specifically for EMC, is this something that's a priority for EMC to donate your time, your expertise, your technology to tackle some of these issues? Yeah, I think you can. I think, and that's one of the motivations is to, if we're successful, broaden this out to support other initiatives like this that are for societal good. And so we're really excited about this project and we're really eager to build something and do something meaningful on them and we're hopeful that we can expand it to cover more things. Because I think it's, again, it's a win-win of source for everybody, right? It gives us a good demonstration vehicle for our technologies and what we can do. It's a proven ground for us to develop some new innovative things, but it's also, we're giving back to the community. So it is very much a strong interest of many of the leaders in EMC. Yeah, well, congratulations on the project. I applaud EMC for taking these steps. I think it's really important. And it really shows what big data can do. It's not just about some of the more, not just about the technology, it's not just about some of the more commercial aspects, which is very important, but really can tackle some of these bigger challenges. Absolutely. John Cardente from EMC. Thanks so much for joining us on theCUBE. We appreciate it. Thanks for watching. We'll be right back with our next segment after this.
