So let's go ahead and get right into the presentation. So if you don't know who I am, my name is Chelsea Knudson. I'm glad you landed on my channel. I am a fibroid healing coach and I'm a life transformation coach. And I help Christian women heal wound issues and emotional traumas using food, herbs, God's word and prayer as medicine. So if you want more information about that, please check out my website at whatchelsieeats.com. And also if you haven't subscribed, subscribe and hit the notification bell so you never miss an episode. And let's go ahead and get right into these topics about herbs. I wanna explain something to you about herbs really quickly because I have recently gotten some things in my Instagram direct messages where people are like, can I take this herb for that and this herb for that? And those are very good questions.  They're herbs, they are something, they are a tool that's going to help you on your healing journey. And you cannot continue to do the things that you've been doing to disrupt your hormones, to cause fibroids to grow or cysts to grow. You can't keep doing that stuff and expect to take the herbs to make all of that, all betters and you can continue on with your lifestyle because it doesn't work that way. Herbs are designed to go alongside you in your healing process.  Just like a detox method is a tool, just like eating healthy food is a tool. Getting your emotions in check is a tool. Those are just tools in your toolbox that's gonna help you to your overall goal. And I wanted to make sure that I clear that up because there are people out here selling herbs and they're like, this herb is going to help you do this or that and it may give you some relief and it may give you some help, it's true. Like you could take my herbs and don't do anything and like to change your lifestyle and you may get some relief, but overall it's not making the problem go away unless you stop doing what's causing the problem. You have to get to the root of the problem. So there's that. The other thing is once you start taking herbs you have to be consistent, take them every day. Sometimes you skip a day here and there, that's fine, but if you wanna see the result for the particular herb that you're taking, we'll say you're taking, you want it to help your hair stop, stop falling out or something like that. Like you have my grow your hair tea or whatever and that seems to be like a really popular tea right now in my shop. But if you wanted to help you, you can't drink it on Monday and then Friday and then Monday and Tuesday and then Thursday and then expect to get the results you're looking for. Be consistent, drink it every day. So if you're just now joining me, I'm having a 20% off herbal blends sale in my shop. No code needed. The sale is today through Monday and I may even extend the sale till Tuesday but right now it's Monday. So if you're interested, the link is down in the description box below or go to whatchelsieeats.com and click on herbal blends. The first herb that I don't have in front of me, I thought I had it in front of me, but I don't. It's called elderberry. Lots of people drink elderberry. But I wanna just say one thing about elderberry. If you're somebody who is struggling with heavy bleeding or you have low iron or your iron has been unpredictable in your body or you've been taking iron tablets and they're not really helping, a daily dose, like a teaspoon of just adding a teaspoon, like one teaspoon to your herbal blend tea every day is going to help boost your iron stores. The other thing you could do with elderberry, elderberries, the ones that I sell, is you can take that teaspoon and put it in your blender and blend it up in your smoothie and get a boost of iron that way as well. So if you're really low on iron, there's nothing wrong with adding some additional help by adding elderberries. So I just wanted to give you that tip. So I have elderberries in stock right now, add them to whatever tea blend that you're drinking right now or add them to your smoothie. You can even, if you can handle the taste of them, some people will love the taste of elderberries.  They're berries, they're just dried berries. The first herbal blend that I wanna talk to you about is the colon formula. The colon formula is a high quality blend of herbs that is good for like cleansing and healing the entire digestive tract. This herbal blend is not for, it's not gonna be like an explosive poop if that's what you're looking for. That's not what this is.  This is a healing formula. That's what this is. So if you have something like IBS or Crohn's or something like that, this would be something that will help you but you need to start small and then build up. The instructions are on the container but this, I love this blend. And also the other thing that this blend is is it has an overall detoxification, it has detoxification herbs that actually help the whole body too. So if you take this, you may even feel detox symptoms everywhere in your body. I love this. And let me just tell you, in order to heal reproductive issues, hands down, you have to clean out your colon. You cannot be sitting there with this colon full of junk and expect all your health issues to go away. So you need to clean your colon. My lymph T, okay, I have it here. The lymph T right here, the lymphatic system is the next system that we have to take care of in our bodies. The thing about the lymphatic system is it's the only system in our body that does not have a pump on it. So your heart pumps your blood, your, and the lymphatic system doesn't have anything that pumps it to move it. So the only way it moves is through one, through moving your body like exercising. So your lymphatic system will move through exercising and some of the best forms of exercising for lymphatic movement is rebounding, that's jumping on a mini trampoline, or it is actually you taking a walk of brisk walk that those are the exercises that I think are best for lymphatic drainage or movement. And then there is herbs. And this formula is full of herbs that will help you move your lymphatic system. And the reason that the reproductive system gets tumors and cysts is because lymphatic stagnation pulls like sits in the pelvis area of your body. And when it can't go anywhere, it forms into a cyst to keep that junk away from or cyst or tumor to keep that junk away from your other vital organs that you have in your body that are keeping you alive. So it's important to move the lymph, whether you use herbs or not, which it is a good way to move your lymph, you need to be exercising so you can move that out. That's another way that your body works on getting rid of the fibroid cyst endometriosis by moving the stagnation of the lymph out of that part of your body. Lots of people say they can't sleep. I don't have my sleepy time T here right now, but the sleepy time T helps with sleep and it also helps with anxiety. So if you are struggling with anxiety, the sleepy time T can help with that because it has calming herbs in it. Barley grass juice powder, one of my favorite products because this barley grass juice powder is potent. There's a difference between barley grass juice powder and barley grass powder. Barley grass powder is barley grass ground up and barley grass juice powder is juice dried. So this is the actual juice. So if you take a spoonful of this and mix it in water, you're hydrating the juice and the juice, when you drink it, it goes straight to your cells and this is a high quality, it's organic, it's potent. This morning when I made my smoothie and this is part of my smoothie, I put some barley grass juice powder in my smoothie. So yeah, so there you have it. I shouldn't have did that. Now I'm gonna have green teeth. I'll get rid of it. So the thing about barley grass juice powder, what it does is it inhibits tumor growth. That's what barley grass does. It boosts the immunity, it helps with your skin. If you have high cholesterol, it brings those cholesterol levels down and it's so nutritious that it fills in the nutrition gaps that people have. So if you're not getting enough of this, it helps or you're not getting enough of this or that. It comes in and it helps to fill those places where you're not getting enough of because people don't eat enough greens. And if you don't eat enough greens or if you just want more greens, barley grass juice powder is an excellent source to bring in. My next favorite is no more cramps. I love this because it helps, it actually helps to alleviate menstrual pain. So you can take this all month long if you're somebody who is prone to cramps or you can take it when you're on your menstrual cycle. I also have this in tincture form. So what you would do is if you're having cramps, you can take it, you can take two dropper fools on hour on the hour until the cramps go away or drink a cup every hour on the hour until the cramps go away. You actually can take it more than an, more than every hour you can take more if you are really struggling with like debilitating cramps because this has the herbs in it that relaxes the body and helps with taking the edge off of that pain. I also have the tea strainers. If you are struggling with loose leaf tea, oops, it has the, you put the herbs in the basket. It also has a lid on it. And then you put it in your cup, pour the water over, before you put the lid on, you pour the, you put the herbs in, pour the water in the cup and then you stick the lid on and let it steep for however long you want it to steep. I love these. And I also still have the eco vessel. I don't have an eco vessel here for you to see but you can go to my website and look up the eco vessel in the herb shop and it is a thermos. So say you'd like to have your tea hot. Like lots of people say, I want to drink my tea hot. I don't want to drink it room temperature. I like to drink my room temperature most of the time but the eco vessel, you put the herbs in the eco vessel, pour the water in it and it has a strainer that goes on top and you put the lid on and whenever you are ready to drink your tea, you just pour it in the cup and it separates the tea from the herbs that it's been sitting in. So you don't have to worry about how are you gonna get the herbs or how are you gonna strain the herbs and all that stuff is easy and you can do it on the go. So I still have that in the liver. I don't have it here. I'm sorry, I don't have the tincture but I do have the link liver cleanser here but I do have tinctures in stock now. So a lot of you have been asking me about the liver cleanser tincture. The thing about this one is it nourishes the blood, it detoxifies the blood and it's a hormone balancer. That's what this herb is. This herbal blend is going to help you to cleanse the liver and the liver is the place where hormones are metabolized meaning it actually utilizes or gets rid of the hormones in your body. So it uses the hormones and it helps your body to use the hormones and it helps your body to get rid of the ones you don't need like estrogen dominance for example or if you've got too much testosterone or whatever it is that you have in your body this will help you. And if you have a real serious case of hormonal imbalance take a little bit more than the package suggests and that will help you out there. And I also have an intincture form as well. I just don't have it here with me right now. If you're just joining me, I'm offering a 20% off sale on all herbal blends and e-books in my store. There's no code needed. The sale goes today through Monday and I'm doing the sale in honor of my birthday. If you are interested you can go down in the description box below, click the link or go to whatchelseaeeds.com, let's see. The bleeding formula, this one's popular. Also have this in T form as well and I have an intincture form. The bleeding formula is one of those that helps you to stop all that excess bleeding.  I have been in that place where it looks like a crime scene in your underwear and it's very, very scary.  You just need to do what you need to do to help take care of yourself, but the bleeding formula will help slow or stop that heavy bleeding. That's what the bleeding formula will do. But you have to take the T in order for it to help you. I had somebody message me and say, they said, your T's don't work. I said, well, did you take it? Yeah, I took it once, but it didn't do anything. You got to take it, y'all. You have to take the stuff in order for it to work. And the people that say they take it, they always, I've not had anybody say that they're taking it and it's not helping. So anyway, these are the herbal combinations that I used whenever I was bleeding.  Take it all month so the herbs can start working on your reproductive system to get to the root of why you're bleeding. But also, as I said in the beginning of this presentation, you still have to do the things that you need to do in order for you to heal.  Get your stress under control. Start dealing with your emotional well-being. Those types of things, get some exercise, drinking your water, staying hydrated, those things you need to still do. Cause none of it is gonna change.  If you don't do anything different, guess what? The symptoms that you had in your womb area will show up somewhere else in your body. Just cause you get the womb cut out, doesn't mean that the problem goes away. Okay, here's another one. Mullen, mullen, mullen, mullen. It's good for, remember I was talking about the lymphatic system? This is good for your lymphatic system. It's good for your respiratory system. If you're somebody who used to be a smoker, if you used to be a weed smoker or if you're currently a weed smoker, this is going to help. But it also moves congestion out of the womb area. It moves mucus out of the womb area. And all mucus is, is stagnant lymphatic fluid. That's what mucus is.  And this time of year, if you've got allergies, this is a good time for you to take this so that you can get all that junk out of you so that whatever is irritating you from an allergy perspective, you can just push it, push it out. But ultimately for allergies, you want to, it is connected to what you, what you've got going on in your gut, in your body, what kind of foods you're eating, the condition of your gut microbiome. So you need to change that so that your body can deal with the environmental factors a little bit better. Anyway, don't forget to put your questions in the chat because I am gonna be answering questions when we, when I'm done talking about these things. The healthy vagina. This tea has parasite herbs in it. So if you actually want to do a parasite cleanse, like on your whole body, you actually can use this to help cleanse parasites. But reproductive issues, there, if you have reproductive issues, there's parasites in your body. There's no question about it. And you're colon all over your body. But I created this blend for people who struggle with bacterial vaginosis, yeast, parasites, odors, discharge down below. And this will help with that. I get, I get people who say to me, Chelsea, I use the healthy vagina tea and I can feel it helping, but I really need to do a better job with my diet. So this is one of the teas that if you really take it and you haven't done anything much with your diet, you may get some results. So don't sleep on healthy vagina tea. It will help you clear out that area. The other thing this will do is if you're having some low libido issues, like meaning not desire, but if you're feeling like a lack of sensitivity in that area, because this is a cleansing herbs for down there, that's gonna help with the sensitivity if you're struggling with that. Bye-bye, Anemia. Love this tea. I actually have this in Tincture available now as well. So if you are somebody who just needs an iron type of a supplement, that's what this herbal blend will help you with. And the Tincture as well. It helps you with your daily iron intake, I should say. I was trying to think of the word that I wanted to use, but iron, it can help you with your daily iron intake, but it also helps reverse Anemia. All kinds of iron-rich herbs in this blend. Let's see, oh, my favorite. This is the first blend that God gave me. It's the Anucreation Womb Healing Tea. This herbal blend is a Womb Cleanser Womb Tonic. It gets rid of the stuff that does not belong in the womb area, breaks up pelvic congestion in the uterus, the tubes, the vagina, the ovaries, and the surrounding area. And if you do have low libido and vaginal dryness, things like that, this tea will actually help you with that. This one breaks down tumors, cysts, endometriosis, all the stuff, it helps with pelvic inflammatory disease. This is the tea that helps clean the womb. And soon I'm gonna have Tinctures. It's gonna be late next month, but I know I've been promising it, but it's coming. But until then, take your womb tea. And if there's anybody here that has been taking the tea consistently and you've seen some results, please, by all means, send me an email. Yeah, send me an email at info at whatchelceeds.com. Let's see.  Let me just tell you something about this grow my hair tea, right? This stuff is so good.  I got it cut because it had no shape. It was terrible. I was not doing a good job of taking care of my hair as far as going to the beautician and getting it shaped, et cetera. And I said I wanted to do that. So I got it cut in October. I've had it cut again twice, once in January and once a couple of weeks ago. And literally my hair has grown out in just two weeks, a little bit. Like really, I'm like, I'm looking into my mirror because there was some places in my hair that in my head that they were like uneven, you know what I mean? If you have curly hair, you know, sometimes the curl texture is like tighter in one place and looser in another. So you have to kind of cut it so that it looks even. And I was doing my hair, I'm like, what is going on here? My hair is growing out so fast.  You do need to take care of yourself. But even if you're not perfect, this thing is going, this is gonna help. And the other thing that I haven't even done with this T which I used to do years ago was put treatments and stuff like that on my hair with the T like you could do a rinse and all that stuff. I haven't even done any of that stuff. It's just the T. And I mean, I just put a spoonful of it in my daily mixture, like a heaping spoon in my daily mixture of whatever herbs I'm gonna have. And I don't even do it every day. And I know it's helping. So if you're having hair problems, I recommend doing that, taking that. Next is my womb clay. I love this because if you're somebody who just needs like some time to like relax and de-stress this is a womb calming type of a clay. It slows or stops vibrating tumor progression. It helps with pain management. You could use it on your period. It feeds the womb minerals because it has CMOS in it with all those minerals. It has lavender. I can't remember what else I put in here at this moment, but it feeds the womb minerals. It's detoxifying, it's antibacterial, antiseptic and it's astringent. If you have stretch marks on your stomach, it helps with that. And it also even soothes and calms the skin. But what you do is you take a small amount, make a paste and you rub it over your womb and then you can take a hot towel and then put your heating pad over it for about 20 minutes and don't leave it on for more than 20 minutes. Like more is not better with this. You can make a new batch if you want to like a new batch of clay and rub it over your stomach again if you want to lay there more than 20 minutes. But the reason that this, the 20 minutes is like pivotal is because the herbs, there's a drawing herb. So there's herbs that go in and there's herbs that pull out. And if you leave it on longer than 20, 25 minutes it's starting to defeat the purpose of what that transaction is doing. But there was a woman who is an esthetician, specializing in healing at Hippocrates who gave me the recipe for this for four fibroids. And she said, if you do it consistently you will see a result, your result especially of course with lifestyle changes. I also have good old faithful metal tea. This is good for everything, womb, bleeding, pain, immune system, anxiety, stress, estrogen dominance, iron, blood sugar levels. It helps with support the kidneys and the liver. Also I am working on a kidney tea. I'm working on a kidney tea. Somebody's been, people have been asking me about that. And of course this is my favorite herb as far as seasoning is concerned because it's a no salt seasoning. You guys know that I have been salt sensitive and I've had the hardest time struggle, getting off a salt. But when I am doing what I'm supposed to, which I am doing what I'm supposed to these days, I use herb fest as a salt replacement.  No, nothing tastes like salt. Nothing, but it's, you can get used to it. But even if you use salt, this is a good just overall seasoning for your food. The coconut oil, oh my goodness. The coconut oil, I love this coconut oil. Love this coconut oil. This is, I like it for my body. I like it for everything. But for those of you who are struggling with yeast infections and stuff like that or whatever, bacterial vaginosis, until you could get your gut cleaned out and your body healed and you get your diet changed. This is a helpful, this particular coconut oil is helpful for you to use down in your private area. Just take a like, you know, big heaping scoop, like a, maybe a table spoon or two and slathered on the inside and outside of your vagina. You might have to use a panty liner or a pad or something. But what it does is it'll stop the itching, stop the irritation like in its tracks. And then if you take this along with the healthy vagina tea, that's gonna help you reverse this problem as long as you are coupling this with trying to get your lifestyle together.

So if you haven't put your questions down in the chat box, please put your questions down in the chat box. I'll answer any kind of questions today. It doesn't have to be about herbs. It can be about anything like a reproductive issue, health concern that you have. If I can answer it without, you know, like having to ask you a thousand questions to get to the bottom of what's going on, then I'll be happy to give you some answers. Okay. All right. That's Esther. Hey Esther, I finally caught alive in real time. Welcome. This is Esther, right? I hope that's Esther. Welcome. Let's see, set apart, apart for fathers. Hey there. This is Cam, right? Set apart for the father's goodwill. Welcome. And thank you so much for the birthday wishes. Yasmin, is it Yasmin or Yasmin? Thank you so much. Thank you, Esther. Tuning in from Toronto. I want to go back to Toronto. I went to Toronto when I was 22, right? Before I graduated from college. It was the Caribbean festival. I don't remember a thing about what happened there, but I remember I ended up at Niagara Falls or something. But anyway, I have fibroid issues. It's been a real journey, staying consistent. It is. And let me give you a tip for this, Esther. And this is for everybody who's having trouble.  You have to. If you try to do it on your own strength, it's not going to work because it's too hard to do it in your own strength. And you have to rely on the Holy Spirit every second of every day. Because I think what I used to, the issue that I used to have, right? And sometimes I could fall into it now too. So I'm not saying that I have arrived because nobody ever arrives. I think we are constantly working on getting better the more we live. But we will commit it to the Lord. He'll show us our path. We'll be stepping and then life happens. And then we kind of get our eyes off of the Lord while we're walking this process.  You know what I mean? And so then once we do that, it takes a minute for us to get back on the bubble and then you're trying to do the right thing all over again.  Just think of the scripture where Peter where Peter was walking on water as long as he was, he kept his eyes on Jesus. He was walking on the water.  So that is something that, that's a tip. Not that you didn't know it, but I'm reminding you. I wish the sale could go till month end, hee hee. Yeah, I'm sorry. Thank you though. Hey, Trina. Hey there. Thank you for joining. Let's see, Alisha. Is it normal for the no more cramps tea to make more cramps intense before they get better? Okay, so if you can explain a little bit more about what's happening, like you take it and what's happening, because the other thing that you could be experiencing is healing. When fibroids are shrinking or tumors are shrinking, it can be painful. I don't know if you guys heard the story where, that I told about when I was healing from fibroids and I had, I was taking herbs and the pain was so excruciating at one point. This was an isolated incident that I'm talking about that I didn't think I was gonna make it. Like it was the kind of pain like I never experienced in my life. And then it was over. So it really depends. I don't know how to answer that question because I haven't had anybody tell me that, that the pain gets worse before it gets better. But I do know that if you are taking herbs and you're trying to heal something that sometimes pain can be a healing crisis. I'm air quoting here. It could be a healing crisis and then until you get to the other side and then the pain goes away. So hopefully that helps you. Hey, Yasmin. Let's see. Any tips on how to be consistent with the clean diet while others in the household don't follow the same diet may not and may not understand. Girl, I hear you on that. So when I first started this journey, as you guys know my husband, he just decided that he was gonna eat what I ate because he didn't wanna cook for himself and he wanted to see me well. And a lot of times he didn't understand certain things that I would do and he was still whenever he ate things he would just eat them outside or cook them when I'm not here or cook whatever he wanted that was different for himself.  So my husband bought some candles that we can burn in our bedroom so we don't have to smell the smell. I know that doesn't answer your question but I'm gonna tell you, if I were in that situation I would be praying, asking the Lord for strength and asking him to, I would probably be trying to get closer to the Lord in that instance so that he could help me because he said that he will always provide a way of escape for us and I just think he'll provide. I just think we have to make that choice to turn to him in those moments. And even though it's hard, I think it can be done. And if you keep falling and you're trying to do that, you know, I would be asking God, okay Lord, what's in my heart that's keeping me from doing what I know I need to do so that I could get well regardless of what everybody else is doing in the house. But even so it's still hard but I don't think that it's impossible. Hello, Ellie, thank you. What's the benefit of the no-salt diet? So my body is sensitive to it. My body swells when I eat salt, any kind of salt. Doesn't matter if it's Himalayan, Celtic and also salt is not good for certain reasons. We do need sodium, but we get it in our food, especially if you're eating lots of greens, there's sodium in fruit, all the things. Like if you don't eat salt, you're not going to be salt deficient unless you're somebody who are going and sweating in the sauna for hours a day or I don't go to yoga or I don't go to yoga or do yoga or anything like that. But if you're somebody who does hot yoga and you're sweating, you need extra salt in your diet but the one benefit that comes from a no-salt diet is it helps you to get rid of the addiction to food because I find whether the food is healthy or not that if there's salt in the food, I will eat more of the food because the food is more flavorful with salt on it. Then if I cook something that doesn't have salt in it, it is not as enjoyable, especially in the beginning but I will get used to when I allow myself to get used to eating food with no salt and I find that I don't eat as much as I do when I add salt. So if you have a propensity towards food addiction, then eating salt-free is a way to help you with that problem. So that's why I choose not to eat salt. It's more about not eating so much and also the way it makes my body feel. You can go and look for plant-based doctors that teach SOS-free like salt, oil, sugar-free diet. Chef AJ, I'm sure all of you are, if you haven't heard of Chef AJ, she talks a lot about no salt. Although she eats lots of starches which is not good for reproductive issues. So if you're eating rice and brown rice and large quantities of potatoes and all that stuff, that's not good for a reproductive issue. So she preaches and teaches that but she also talks about the salt thing so you can find out about that. Now the bottom line is that everybody's got an opinion on everything so you just have to decide, discern what's going to be best for you. Okay, which is faster, the tincture or the herbs? That's a good question. So I think tinctures are probably, that's a hard question. Because it's not always, it's not black and white.  So I think they both have a benefit but if you're somebody who's like, I don't feel like drinking tea, I know I'm not gonna drink tea or I'm not gonna do it consistent, it's easier to just take the tincture. The loose herbs are more economical than the tincture. The tincture is the same price in my store as the herbs but you can finish a herb bottle depending, I mean a tincture bottle depending on how much you take in a couple weeks when a bag of herbs will probably last you a month, do you see what I'm saying? So you have to try it and weigh it out for yourself. It's different for every person. I like tinctures but I also like tea. When I was in the thick of my healing process, I took tinctures and I made sure I drank a liter of whatever herbal combination I was taking every day. So that's what I did but tinctures are probably stronger and also most of my tinctures are in glycerin, vegetable glycerin, healthy vegetable glycerin organic and it's coconut glycerin. And not all good vegetable glycerin is created equal. There are people who make glycerins and they make them out of flaxseed which is not good for reproductive issues because depending on where your hormones are, flaxseed could be giving you too much estrogen. Some people use soy glycerin and you certainly do not want to use soy glycerin. So you have to be careful where you're buying your tinctures. Alcohol tinctures are the strongest and I took alcohol tinctures whenever I was healing but I am somebody who is sensitive to alcohol and alcohol is alcohol to drink alcohol. When I say sensitive to alcohol, I cannot drink alcohol without having a reaction in my body like I will feel it but I was able to drink the alcohol tinctures. So if you have a choice between alcohol and glycerin, alcohol is gonna be stronger, it's gonna last longer but glycerin tinctures are strong as well. They last about three years versus about 10 years for an alcohol tincture but they're still potent. So don't think that just because it's a glycerin tincture you're not gonna get a benefit from it because you are because it's actually sitting in, the herbs are actually sitting in and absorbing in the glycerin solution for weeks and the essence of the herbs are extracted and that's what you're actually taking in and the same thing happens with the alcohol as well. So hopefully my phone is just like ding, ding, ding. Sorry about that. I guess I could turn it down. I thought I had this on silent, I don't know why it's, anyway, sorry about that. Anyway, so I hope I answered your question. Maggie Maxie, welcome, thank you. Thank you for the update about the kidney TRE, are there any tips on things we could do to support the kidneys in the meantime? You can drink stinging metals. Stinging metals, T has kidney benefits and my liver cleanser actually has some kidney herbs in it. So like it's hard to work on the liver and not be able to, like it's hard to take herbs that are used for the liver that don't also affect the kidneys. But what I'm trying to put together is a herbal combination that will like really attack the adrenals as well as the kidneys to get those things cleansed out. But the herbs that are available in abundance are not always the best for reproductive issues. So I could put together a combination today, but I don't want to, for the sake of getting a kidney formula give you something that's a high, give you herbs that are high in estrogen that could be defeating the purpose of why you're taking the herbs for my blends in the first place because they don't really support reproductive health. So that's what's taking so long. So I hope that helps. Let's see, yes, Chelsea, it's me, Esther is still okay. Esther, welcome. How consistent should we take the herbs for fibroid? And with, and how long will we see results? That's a good question. So you should take them every day, if you can, at least five times a week. That's, I mean, it's okay to miss a day here and there. You know, we get busy. Sometimes we don't take everything every day. That's one thing. But I'm talking about like, as far as consistency is concerned, don't like take it on Monday and then take it on Friday and expect it to work. And you're doing that every week. I have had clients tell me that they have experienced a difference in their body and they're like how their body feels within a week or two of taking the herbs. But every person is different. Every person's toxins in their body is different. Everybody's genetic weaknesses are different. So it's impossible for me to say how long it will take for you to see results because it also, not only are those factors, you have to consider, but you also have to consider the fact that, what is your lifestyle like? What are you eating? What are you drinking?  Are you stressed completely out to the max? You know, those types of things also affect your healing process as well. Thank you, Andrea. Shanisha, welcome and tell your dad that I said happy birthday. Hey, Ellie, okay. Let's see, I would love to meet with you if you could come to Toronto. I wanna come, I'm coming. I don't know when, but I'm coming. All right, the why and walking with the Lord yes for that. Thanks for that, Chelsea. I do forget sometimes. Yes, that will help you. Andrea, yes, the fibroids are shrinking and I have pain daily, but can tell they're getting smaller. Yeah, Andrea, that's the hard part about walking this journey. Sometimes we'll have pain. So but congratulations to you regarding them getting smaller. I'm so happy for you. Thanks for sharing that. The womb tea, the womb healing tea definitely works very well. Thank you, so glad. Send me an email, tell me that, tell me about it. Yes, okay, good. I'm glad that helps you. Are all fruits good to eat when detoxing? So the best fruits to eat when detoxing are the high water content fruits like watermelons, melons, berries, citrus, grapes, fruits like that, those are the best.  They're gonna, I mean, it's like, I call bananas like a sanity fruit and try not to eat like the botanical fruits like tomatoes and cucumbers because that is not, that's not part of the detoxification process as far as an all fruit cleanse is concerned, but you can eat them.  It's not gonna, but it's not an astringent fruit that's going to scrub your lymphatic system and help you to heal. And you also wanna be careful of fatty fruits like jackfruit or avocados, things like that. You don't wanna eat that on the fruit cleanse either cause that's gonna slow your detoxification down. So hopefully that answers your question. Okay, I had a myomectomy two months ago but don't know how to manage the consistent plant-based diet on a daily basis after my surgery. So, yeah. Well, I'm glad that, the one thing that I'm glad to hear, Ellie, is the fact that you are trying to take good care of yourself after this surgery cause I know that you do not want these fibres to grow back and that's probably the biggest thing that I get in my inbox that people say, you know, I got the surgery and they grew back. So what I would do if I were you, I don't know if you can. So, I'm imagining you watched my YouTube videos or maybe in the process of watching my YouTube videos about like the recipes that I recommend. The only other thing I would suggest for you, and this wasn't available when I was healing, I wish it was available when I was like, like really in the thick of it, is I would either do one of two things. My coaching program, my new coaching program is coming here soon. I know I keep saying that, but it really is coming soon. I would either join the coaching program so you can learn how to take good care of yourself or I would do the Fibroid Detox Workshop and go through that material. And then after you do the workshop, you can join my membership. So I have a membership that helps women, supports women after they have gone through my curriculum to help them stay on track so they can get support. So that would be something that would be helpful, but like not knowing anything about your lifestyle, about your, you know, your behaviors, things like that, I really can't answer this question about how you can stay consistent because I would have way too many questions, but I know that the two things that I mentioned can be tools to help you. Let's see. I saw article, Stay Away From Dates If Struggling With Fibroids, what's your opinion? I don't agree with it. I don't. I don't agree with that at all. Now, do I think that you need to go sit there and eat a whole bunch of dates all the time? No, but adding dates to your homemade salad dressings to sweeten them up or adding them to your smoothie to sweeten them up is nothing, absolutely nothing wrong with that.  So no, I don't agree with that. Thank you for sharing that, that's a good question. Thank you very much for the birthday wishes. All fruits are their fruits that cause fibroids to grow.  So yeah, you can cause your fibroid to grow that way. But that's a loaded question. It just really depends on everything else you're doing in your life. Do your bowels move every time you eat? Are you living a detox lifestyle? Do you drink water? Like what else is going on in your life? So it's not like an isolated, this is not like an isolated answer. If you eat fruit with a standard American diet, is it gonna make the fibroid grow? I don't ever claim fibroids for anybody. And I pray that you won't either. But it's not so black and white that it's actually going to make it grow. It could, it could. But eating the way I teach you to eat, eating fruit does not make fibroids grow. No, it does not. Helps them to shrink. But in order to know what I teach, you really have to be under my tutelage. Like getting a little bit here and getting a little bit there, you don't know everything I teach. Like you might watch every last one of my videos, but it's impossible for you to know everything I teach unless you've been through some of my programs. And then what I used to, what I've taught three years ago is a little different than what I teach now. So hopefully that helps. All right. Thank you, Kelly. Okay, I feel intermittent fasting with the T assist with healing, it does. Along with praying has changed my life and is motivating. I have had fibroids for nine years and finally feel I have control. That is fantastic. I love this story. Thank you so much for sharing this. I am going to screenshot this. I love hearing that, that's good news. That is good news. Thank you, Andrea. Are your recipes good for those who have insulin resistance? Yeah, absolutely. Absolutely. Yes, absolutely. Diabetes, insulin resistance. Now, if you look in at the way the world looks at things, they might say no. But if you follow what I teach and you don't mix and match, like say for example, you have a big green smoothie for breakfast and you have a salad for lunch and you have some pasta with some lean chicken for dinner, that doesn't always mix. Do you know what I mean? But that's not what I teach. And that's what people do. They will do part of what I say and then they might end up not getting the results that they're looking for. So that's all I'm trying to say with that. So if you follow what I teach, then yes. And unfortunately lots of people think they're following what I'm teaching and they don't because it takes study. It takes you changing your mindset away from what you knew so that you can. So that you can, my husband is running the blender in the kitchen. Can you all hear that? It's a little bit distracting to me. Hopefully he's almost done. But anyway, I think he's making a smoothie. But my point is that you have to apply yourself to learn exactly what to do so that your body can heal. Learn because we've been doing things so much the same way for so long that it's hard to change. And it took me some years to really change. And sometimes I'm still having to change. Yes, there is a replay for this. Hey, Janet, yes, I'm gonna keep this up. I'm not gonna make this, I'm not gonna take this down. I look forward to meeting you, Janet. Amen. All right, that looks like Aussie. Thank you so much for your time and sharing your knowledge. It's appreciated. You're welcome, Andrea. Ladies, I'm so grateful that I have gotten the opportunity to spend this part of my day with you. Love you all so much. I pray for you. I have nothing but best wishes for you. I want you to, I want to see you well. And I always say this at the end of my videos. And I really mean it from the bottom of my heart. But if nobody told you that they love you today, I love you. Chelsea in North Carolina loves you very much. And I'll talk to you all soon. Take care.


Hi, everybody. My name is Pakawak Tabibrwyddech, and I'm a PhD student at the University of Cheprwyr, from the Kingdom. The topic I'll be talking today is about the Special Research and Economic Services of Urban Trees in the tropical Mecca city. Why face growing interest to improve the qualities of urban environments by the nature based solutions such as the creating and retaining of urban greenspace that includes urban forests, Rydym yn cymryd i ddweud i'w ddweud o bwysig cyfwyrgyn iawn i'w ddweud yma.

But, in use these data collected from few to explore for the private vocal ecosystem services of trees, which including the carbon storage and human food production potential which is defined as biomethe of species that that is led by Thailand Departments or Precultural Extension, and by-devices support, which trees support open biodiversity in many ways. In these studies we then focus on just the species that provide food for birds, and finally the economic values which is evaluated based on Thailand Ministerial Graisions that allow the use of trees as a value collector to scale financial Lone for people. Obviously, coven storage at the bootland site is higher than those in the randomized one, but we found no significant association between coven storage in either location with a nice intensity, which indicates that the land spending approach to highly-evanised locations in mycoxasity did not adversely influence coven storage potential of event trees. For human food production potential in both locations was mainly contributed by coconut farming, while the result from the randomized point indicated a significant decline to a highly-evanised site. But human food productions in the bootland sites can still maintain along the vanishing gradients, which indicate that bootland retention may provide a mitigation for urbanisation impacts on food productions of event trees. And for biodiversity support, which is defined as a biomass of trees providing fruit for birds, was mainly contributed by weaving fig trees, and this biodiversity support in the randomized site appeared to be maintained along the urbanisation gradients and surprisingly increased to a highly-evanised locations in the bootland sampling site. And the similar pattern is also found with the economic values of event trees, in which it was mainly contributed by urban trees, which is an exotic species here. These patterns indicate that intensely-evanised land can still maintain deep focal ecosystem services of event trees, and retaining wooded patch in highly-evanised occasion can also enhance some of these ecosystem services, which is contrasted with several other studies that typically report the declines of ecosystem services with increasing some of the United Nations' intensity. But we're looking into the relationships between species research and ecosystem services, apart from the fairly strong positive quadratic relationships between carbon storage and tree species research at the randomized site, which is not surprising at the highly-numbered of the species typically reflect the high abundance of trees' veils, and therefore their biomass and carbon storage potential. Other ecosystem services solutions from urban trees are not really strongly positively associated with tree species research, indicating the hotspot for tree biodiversity, and ecosystem service provisionings are typically in different locations, and so managing or designing for one of these attributes will not automatically benefit one other. So, one of the key explanations here may be due to the functional traits of the tree species, and nearly half of these species only contribute to carbon storage, but not the other focal ecosystem services here, and only two species contribute to all of these focal ecosystem services, and moreover that there is considerable proportions of species contribute to economic benefits, but not other ecosystem services, and therefore tree planting and protection benefit as a result of these Tycoman trees' collateral schemes may not highly benefit other ecosystem services unless there's revisions of the political species based on their functional traits. So, these results underscore the importance of balancing ecosystem service provisionings and biodiversity protections as they're promoting biodiversity. We're not always in terms of ecosystem services, and on the other hand managing for ecosystem services based on only small numbers of species who increase the vulnerabilities of urban forest and ecosystem services as well to future climatic instability. So, in a nutshell here, we conclude that the intensely urban development can still maintain tree species and some of the associated ecosystem services, and the result from the woodlands having site indicates that there is considerable potential for woodland retention as a nature-based solution to enhance biodiversity and ecosystem services of urban trees and even in the highly urbanized locations, and the use of tree economic values as collateral for securing financial loans due to the Tycoman policy may facilitate the tree protections and increased future tree plantings, but there is a need to rewind the set of eligible species to enhance these values to deliver other biodiversity and ecosystem services as well. Finally, the biodiversity and ecosystem services of trees in Bangkoks were not strongly positively associated with each other, and these stuff complicate the urban planning decisions, and there lie the need to rely on these attributes when designing and managing future urban forests. Thank you very much.


All right, I have something new from Unify. It is a Unify Cloud Key Gen 2 Plus. Okay, so it's not new and no, this video is not old. I'm recording it here in July of 2019. And we've actually had this for several months. We've been testing it for quite a while. And I wanted to do the review differently so the unboxing's not gonna be too exciting about this. But I wanted to do something a little different with the review and not just like, hey, look, this new fancy shiny thing works. I wanted to use it. So we've actually had it kicking around the office. We've had it in the lab area, the store area. We've had it in our studio area for a while. We've had cameras connected. We've disconnected it. We replaced hard drives in it multiple times. We've unplugged it randomly quite a few times. And it's also survived the many iterations we've seen this year of the Unify software, both the protect software and the Unify software that manages everything else. And that was the important component to me was does it survive all these updates? Cause it's cool to pull something out of the box and see something new that works because well, that's a lot of new things work. That's great. But do they survive updates? That's really where the problems are. And I bring this up because if for those of you that are familiar with the Cloud Key Gen 1, the little plastic ugly box ones, okay, I'm just gonna call it out there. They were not pretty boxes, sorry Unify. They were okay. They were basic, they ran Debian, which this does as well. And they got the job done. But there were some update issues with them over time and they've been around for quite a few years. We've had a few deployed at clients. Like I said, they do get the job done but they're not very fast. And of course that's an aging product. This on the other hand is quite fast and much more well-designed and everything about it is much, much improved versus there. It's almost like, I know it's a Gen 2 but it's a substantial upgrade overall in both performance and usability and how it works. And it's really cool display that we're gonna show here. So let's get to the unboxing part. All right, so here's the box and it fits together really well. So it's kind of got that suction effect when it comes out. The boxes are actually quite sturdy so it feels really well packaged. I'll give them, you know, you don't want things messing up and shipping. So that's definitely an issue. It does come with this and little slide out tab to tell us what the things are on it. So, you know, we've got the, it has a one terabyte hard drive has shipped in there which we did take out and I'll cover that in a second. LCD display and what those are comes with a couple of stickers and let's just show you what it looks like more directly. This was wrapped in plastic but we got rid of the plastic wrap on it. And I didn't feel like rewrapping it just for the video.  Then on the other side we got a power button, power via USB-C reset button, an SD card you can put in there so it can save all the backups on there. That's definitely a nice feature. So it's got its own internal storage but then you can also add micro SDs and back things up to it. You have, I'm assuming USB-C for external storage based on that. Yes, that's for storage. And then we have the 802.3 AF power. So you can power this over PoE which I really like. That's actually how we've been using it is with the PoE. Now on the bottom here, we have this right here so you can, it's supposed to be an edge connector and I haven't really looked at this. I think they have a dock that it sits on. I don't know if it feels unnecessary. Then this, a little bit tricky, we'll get it open. There we go. And this is how we pop out the hard drive. And it exposes that I've stuck a SanDisk SSD in there. So I didn't want to take it apart any further. I didn't really dig. I'm assuming I would have to peel some plastic off and I didn't want to really wreck it like this. I didn't see any easy way just to pop the entire system apart to really dig into the components on it. But that's aluminum. It is really well made. Actually, there's no flex. When I'm squeezing this thing, it is a really solid piece here. Also, please note that the hard drive in here, even though I'm using an SSD, they left you a gap. So if you have to use a thicker hard drive, it works. And the reason, there's an SSD, huge reason there's an SSD in here which good news is these are becoming much cheaper, is when we hooked up the 4K camera, we found playback really, really sluggish. And that was a performance problem. Now, the system will even work without the SSD in it, or a hard drive in it, but Unify Protect has nowhere to save its data. It does have a separate storage that manages the OS and everything else on here. And then this SSD is only for storage of the videos that being said, when you replace this, there's not much you have to do. It's smart enough to go, hey, look, you replaced the drive, and it formats it and sets it up and configures it for you, and away you go. I like that this is actually a little hard to release. It takes a little effort, so it doesn't, you're certainly not worried about falling out and it solid click right into place. So all that was been great about it. No complaints about that from a hardware standpoint. There's also a battery in here. So when you pull it out, it does a little countdown. And the countdown will tell you how long it takes to shut down. But that's all about the hardware. Now let's talk about the software on it because that's where the real excitement begins. So the unit's off and all's I'm plugging in is one network cable. And you can watch the boot up process now.  So like I said, this is really nice, the notifications on there. And then it starts a little blinking here. With this hard drive in it, obviously there's no fans, no nothing. I'm assuming the aluminum body, I can't really say it even gets that warm. It gets maybe slightly warm. It's not a hot component at all. But what it does do is probably dissipates the heat through the aluminum. And with an SSD in there, like I said, this is 100% silent, nothing down there. So let's go ahead and it's booted up, which by the way, way faster than the previous one. And it tells you the IP address that it's at. So hey, here we go. We know the information on it. Nice little display. I really like the display on this. Being able to look at a glance and go, hey, what IP address is this at? And it tells you each thing that's running on here. Now this does come in two flavors. If I didn't mention it, there is a Cloud Key Gen 2 and the Gen 2 Plus. The Gen 2 Plus is the one with the hard drive that has the Unify Protect for the video. And we're gonna cover that here. But if you just want the Gen 2, it's pretty cool. But may as well, it's not much more you can get the Gen 2 Plus. And then you have the other thing to put a couple of cameras on here. So it's a great solution for like a small home office that you'll need a few cameras on. Cause that's the one thing about the Unify Protect software is it doesn't have a really big amount of cameras, many cameras that it can support. It's the one downside of it. It's not like there are other software to Unify Video. But I've got a video that I'll leave a link to below where I discuss the two different products because they're now discontinuing the Unify Video and going with Protect. And I do feel so Protect in the future, based on its name, will probably have more features in it besides just cameras. We'll wait and see and see how that goes with Unify. Now I'll actually demo this too. The, if we unplug it, it does nice graceful shutdown. Whoops. Okay, get that out. Hold on. There we go. And it's gonna give us a warning. Shutting down in six, five, four. We're gonna stop this so we can log into it. And that's the system by which it goes through and counts down. And if there's a loss in power, gracefully shutting things down. Now this was a problem with the Gen 1s is you lose power and MongoDB, especially some of the earlier versions that they were using. Well, databases can get corrupted when there's unexpected shutdowns that is solved by having a small battery inside of this, which is really neat because that way if something happens and things power off, no problem. And it's now completely happy. But it, like I said, it goes through the shutdown and process and gives you a little warning. Hey, power's out. And let's, you know, it's going to shut down gracefully and properly. Do it. That's a huge improvement on these. So let's dig into the menu here and what happens when we go to <IP_ADDRESS>, which was the IP address displayed on the front of the Unify. I do like that you don't have to hunt for it. It just grabs the IP and tells you what it is. So you have, you can launch the Unify network. You can launch Unify Protect or you can manage your cloud key. We're gonna go from managing the cloud key. The default credentials are UBNT, UBNT. We've actually changed them from the fault. And now you can take a look at it. So Unify Network active, Unify Protect is active, firmware version, the storage, Storage 2. So this is the internal EMCC storage. This is the storage we have for the hard drive that we put in here. Up time, five minutes, because we just booted it. Qualcomm 64-bit, eight cores in there. So I like that it gives you some of the details. You can look at the CPU load, CPU temp, memory, storage, Storage 2. You can start and stop the Unify network services or the Protect services. You can look at the activity for data transferred. You can also go in Advanced Configuration and set a fallback IP when it doesn't get an IP from DCP or you can set this to be static and set static address for this. So it comes up with the same IP every time. You do that in here. My personal preference is to have the firewall set static IPs that it's specifically hands out for but design it as you will. You can name it, pick the location, do a factory reset, power off, reboot, update manually on the firmware. Now, this is something that I, one of the long-term reviews I did was making sure this survives firmware updates and it has. And we're gonna take a look at some of the software on it but that's the part that's been great is we're gonna start with the Unify software here. I'm logged in, I have one device connected. You know, it's the same Unify controller software that you're used to and it is the latest version. It updates really smooth. So it's like the controller we are running and this is the most current as of today, 5.10.25 as of July 2019. And I haven't had a single problem. We've watched this thing go through update after update after update and that was kind of the point. Make sure it survives updates. Make sure it goes, oh man, this causes a problem.  Sometimes you run in issues. This being specifically hardware from Unify with the update process from Unify and you're running Unify top to bottom. This does work really well. I generally don't have any problems running the updates when I host my own controller. But if there are issues, you know, they do arise. There's little quirks. We ran into a client who was having problems with their controller updating. They just didn't have enough memory allocated to the VM. They were running it in and it was causing some corruption issues. Those kind of things aren't things you have to take into consideration. If you get this and that's kind of the why you would buy one of these, you just want it to work. Now, the Unify Protect software, let's talk a little bit about that.  Now, we expect at some point in the future because they do sell other servers that Unify will be having this on a roadmap so you runify Protect. You can load it on one of their other higher end ones to support more cameras. But that is not true as of this moment right now because when you go to the Unify Protect page they have the whole Unify camera lineup and we do have a G4 Pro connected. We've tested with a couple other cameras. Matter of fact, we'll show you how to add a camera in here. It works with all these cool cameras, which is great but there are some limitations of only up to 20 cameras. It does ship with that one terabyte storage that we found actually to be kind of slow when playing back videos at 4K when we were doing some testing with it. SSD works fine. We haven't any problem at all with that. The cool, they got the rack mount accessory in here but yeah, only supporting just this one device right now and having that limitation of up to 20 cameras and it doesn't say if they're all 4K. So I'm not real sure how many, I don't have 24K cameras to test but I have feeling that 4K cameras, 20 may be a bit excessive for this machine. But let's go back and look at the camera software itself. And maybe I'll do a more in-depth video. I know Chris over at Crosstalk has a good video on the Unify Protect software that I liked. It's not bad. It's very much a similar to the way Unify software worked with the other one but you can't download and run it yourself so it does have to run on one of their pieces of hardware and we'll show you the live view real quick. And I have G4 Pro camera sitting right here. Yes, it's gonna be grainy when it does it like this. It actually defaults to like a lower res, low stream. And we'll actually go back over to the camera.  And you can up it up so it does do higher res when you want it to. So that's definitely an option when you're pulling the stream. And I've done a review of this specific camera as well. Has all the motion events in here and we can play those back. Actually, what time did Tom get here this morning? It's probably me playing with it early this morning. Yep. So there's the me doing that. And in here, let's go ahead and make it full screen. You can see it's very the resolution and playback and everything. And this is all really snappy and fast. This is why we put the system in with the SSD. When we didn't have the SSD, there was a lot of hesitation only with the 4K. When we had the other camera, it seemed to work fine. But I have a feeling a hard drive is just spinning rust hard drive is just not capable of keeping up with how much data that is. Because 4K is four times the size just about of your center 1080. You're talking about four times the pixels. So even after you compress it, there's still quite a bit of data you have to move. And at some point, you just hit the limits of how much data you can stream off of a hard drive. But it is very snappy, as you can see, for doing it this way. So no problems there. As far as adding cameras, now I did this and I used one of these in my network office build video. And one of the things to point out from a design standpoint is everything's on that same 172, 16, 69, 156 address. And I say that because when you're designing a network, some people want to put things like the NVR on a separate network with the cameras on a separate network. Well, I mean, you can, but I will admit, one of the things you're gonna run into is you can't that I've seen easily split the network to multiple different networks. Not to mention, it's one interface. So you'd have to split them out into some type of VLANs. So the Unify Protect and the Unify SDN controller both end up being on the same network. So if that's a problem, there's kind of a workaround and I have that in my network office build video, which I'll leave a link to where I use one of these because the camera is when you adopt them, they seek out the IP address, even when you move these to a different network. So currently this is on the same subnet as the Unify Cloud Key. But if I put this on a different subnet, as long as that subnet has access to that network, it knows what it was talking to. So I can change the IP address to the camera and then it will still route back over to the Cloud Key. So that's something worth noting on there. The protect seems to work no problem with that. I've tested it and we can put this on any network as long as we can get back to this network with the rules, you can get it working. Now, as far as the Unify Protect software, like I said, it seems very adequate for a small office or a small business, but you only need a handful of cameras. It has worked. It has also survived all the updates. Adding cameras is not a problem. So I do have another camera here. This is the G3 sitting behind me. So it's got this, there we go. It's gonna adopt and add it. And it really hasn't been a problem adding removing cameras, but the question that comes up all the time because I will admit Unify has a really nice camera software from a visual standpoint from the standpoint of ease of use. My clients, we've given it to, they love it. We've put a few of these in people's homes and they go, wow, this is just easy. I can see it on my phone, et cetera, et cetera, but it does only support Unify cameras. I didn't know it was the most frequent question I see in someone's still going to, even though I've said this in this video, well, can I use XYZ camera? No, Unify has a ecosystem that is kind of locked in when it comes to that. The Unify cameras work with the Unify Protect or the Unify Video and that's it. So that is an important aspect of them when you're discussing the Unify cameras. Other side note, when we connect this camera to the standard Unify video, I don't get the cool spinny circle thing. That is a Unify Protect feature, unless they've added it recently to Unify Video. Last time we tested this on our Unify Video server, we didn't get the cool circle that tells you there's motion detected, so. But either way, who is the Unify Protect for? Let's talk about that. So if you are someone who goes, I don't want to deal with any hosting or anything, I want it all to be internal, locally discoverable, and I want to run a couple cameras locally, get one of these, it's a very simple solution. I would probably recommend it for home users who, they don't want to deal with any of the running their own VM or loading the Unify system on an dedicated machine or a dedicated VM or host it in a cloud or something, they want it all internal and make it simple. It fits on your shelf real nice, it's PoE, it's quiet if you put an SSD in there. And it makes a nice little small business system or small office system, I should say, where you only have that couple cameras and a couple of unifies and you want everything local. The last little thing I will cover is whatever the password you set is for UBNT, you can log in and it is running Linux. So you can SSH into it, that's on by default, which is kind of cool. So if you wanted to get in here and poke around and see what CPU details are and things like that, that's in there, so obviously like it said, it's the Qualcomm Technologies. You can see where the drives are mounted and how some of that's working internal. So pretty straightforward and simple if you wanna poke around, it is just running Linux. You can run apt-get update on it as well, which I thought was kind of novel. I don't know if it'll do an upgrade, but I imagine it's just pulling from their repositories. So interesting, I actually went a little further, I took a look and the first time I've done this is I looked in apt-conf and they do have both unattended upgrades turned on, which is awesome, because it's gonna be automatically doing security updates and it's pulling from, besides the Unify, it has the, let's see, what do we have here? It's running on Debian Stretch, so yeah, this is novel as well. We've got the standard Debian repositories in there, so I thought they would've spun their own and then ported it over so they have something more custom, but they're actually running a pretty standard installation of Debian here, so that's actually really great as far as I'm concerned, so they didn't hack away at it too much or make it overly custom. So my overall thoughts on this, I really like it. It works well. We haven't had any problems with it and we've been recording and been taking cameras on and off and moving it around and just unplugging it. It seems to have no issues at all and there has been zero times I've actually had to log into the command line to fix anything. Like I said, it's just survived updates for both the Cloud Key software, the Unify Protect software, and the Unify SDN software. It's been really trouble-free for that, so if you're looking for a very automated system in your house that you can have or in your small office that you can have your own control over, this is great.

This talk will be about plane curves. So what we want to do is to talk about curves in the project of plane P2. Before doing this, I'll first show that all curves can be more or less made isomorphic to plane curves. So suppose you've got a curve in n-dimensional projective space you can project to P to the n minus one from some point P. And we will usually get a curve inside P to the n minus one, except this curve might not be the same as C. For instance, if the curve looks like that and you project from a point P that lies on a line passing through two points of the curve they will both end up as the same point in P to the n minus one. So we want P not in any secant of C. That's a line passing through two points. Similarly, we want P not in any tangent line to the curve C because if we've got a tangent line and we project to it then this point of the curve will often become a singular point in P to the n minus one. Well, if we sort of count up we find that the secant lines sweep out a three-dimensional space. It's two dimensions because we can choose these two points and then we can choose any point on the line through them giving a third point. Similarly, tangent lines form a two-dimensional space. So if n is greater than or equal to four we can find a P not in any of these spaces here. So we can project C isomorphically into P to the n minus one. And obviously we can keep going like this until n becomes three. So any curve C is isomorphic to a curve in three-dimensional projective space. And the question is can we get into two-dimensional space? And the answer is in general you can't. Most curves are not isomorphic to curves in two-dimensional space. However, we can if we're willing to allow mild singularities. So the secant lines sweep out of three-dimensional space so we can't avoid those. We can avoid tangent lines and we can also avoid lines where P is in a line with three points of C. So these sweep out a two-dimensional space. And so what we find is that any curve C is isomorphic to a curve in P two with only normal crossing singularities. These are double points that look like two lines crossing each other. By the way, saying it's isomorphic to this curve in P two isn't quite accurate. I should say it's sort of birational to a curve in P two because to get to see you have to resolve the singularities of this curve which means you sort of pull them apart like that somehow. So we can get any non-singular curve by taking a curve in P two possibly with double points and then just resolving the singularities of these double points. So the next question is, how do we find the genus of these curves? So we want to find the genus of a curve C in P two which we're first going to take it to be non-singular and then we will allow it to have a few double points. And for this, we use the Riemann-Harewitz theorem. Riemann-Harewitz theorem, I can't spell. What this does is suppose you've got a map from C one to C two where these are say compact Riemann surfaces and we want to relate the genus of C one to the genus of C two. Well, it's a bit easier to relate the Euler characteristics. So we find the Euler characteristic of C one is N times the Euler characteristic of C two where this is an unrammified N fold cover. So that means every point in C two has exactly N points in this inverse image. And this is pretty obvious because chi is equal to the number of zero cells of a triangulation minus the number of one cells plus the number of two cells. And if you triangulate C two, then you can lift that up to a triangulation of C one, which will obviously have N times as many of everything. And from this, you can see how the genus is related because you recall the Euler characteristic is equal to two minus two times the genus. Well, in general, a map from C one to C two won't be unrammified. It will have ramification points. So ramification points are where C two does something like this. So C two might look like that. And you see it might look like something like X equals Y squared, where there should be two points mapping to a point of C one, but suddenly there's only one point. Similarly, you could have a three-fold ramification point of C one looks like this. Then C two might be a sort of cubic X equals Y cubed. And there's three branches because we're thinking of these as being complex curves. And again, you see this would be a three-fold ramification point, so we say E equals three. This is two-fold, so we put E equals two, where E is the ramification index. And what you see is that every time we have a ramification point, there are fewer points in C two than there ought to be. So the number of points of C two is reduced by E minus one at each ramification point E. So we find the Euler characteristic of C one is equal to N times the Euler characteristic of C two, where this is the most points of N inverse images, minus sum of the EI minus one, where you sum over all the ramification points. So this is the Riemann-Harewitz formula for working out the Euler characteristic of a curve C one. For example, if we've got a hyper elliptic curve, this is a double cover of P one, so N is equal to two, and there are two K points. And at each of these points, EI is equal to two. So the Euler characteristic of the hyper elliptic curve is two times two minus two times K, where this is the Euler characteristic of P one. So the genus is equal to K minus one, which is what we found earlier. Well, we can now use this to work out the genus of a non-singular plane curve. So we take C one equals non-singular plane curve. And let's take it to be a degree D. And then what we do is we just map C one to C two, which we're going to take to be the projective line. So we're just mapping projective plane to the projective line. So this might map X, Y to X, if we ignore the points at infinity. And this is a default cover. So we take, so the Euler characteristic of C one is equal to D times the Euler characteristic of C two minus sum of EI minus one, where these are the ramification points. And the Euler characteristic of C two is easy, that's the projective line, so that's just two. And now we need to look at the ramification points of C one. Well, we're going to take C one to be in sort of general position, whatever that means. And if you kind of look at C one, we're mapping it onto the projective line. And you can see it is going to have a ramification point whenever the tangent line becomes vertical. So here we will have E equals two at all these points here. So the ramification points, we're going to have EI equals two as long as it's in general position. We might occasionally get points where EI equals three, but then we can just projection in a slightly different direction and find EI equals two and so on. And the number of these, well, this occurs whenever the tangent line is vertical. So if the curve is given by fxy equals naught in the xy plane, what we want is partial derivative of f with respect to y is equal to zero. So we want to solve these two equations. This has degree D, this has degree D minus one rather obviously. So the number of intersection points is D times D minus one by Bazou's theorem. So we find the Euler characteristic of C one is D times two minus D times D minus one, which is equal to two. Two minus two G. So from this, you find G is equal to D minus one, D minus two over two. So this gives us the genus of a degree D plane curve. So we've already done the cases where D is zero, one, two or three, for instance, if D is three, the genus is one, which is an elliptic curve. And if D is four, the genus is three, which is what we looked at before. And by the way, I should put a bit of warning here. We looked at the cases where D was at most four and we found in each case that this accounted for all curves of genus G, which is zero, one, three or six. However, curves of, none single plane curves of degree five and above do not account for most curves of the corresponding genus. So for genus five, this would correspond to plane curves of degree six. And most curves of genus six are not plane curves of degree five. Anyway, that's done the case when C is non-singular. And now look at the case when C has degree D, but has M double points. So as we saw, only a few curves are isomorphic and non-singular points of degree D. So the curve might have some double points looking like this. And we now see this account, each double point accounts for two points with delta F over delta Y equals zero because there's sort of one point on this branch and one point on this branch. And it gives no ramification points because if you pull these two branches apart, you can see they're both un-ramified. So the order characteristic increases by two because we've got two more points than we might expect. So there's increases by two for each double point. So the genus G decreases by one for each double point. So we find the genus of C is equal to D minus one, D minus two over two. And then we've got to subtract off the number of double points. So this gives the formula for the genus of a plane curve with N ordinary double points. As you can imagine, you can get more complicated versions of this formula when you have more complicated sorts of singularities, but we're not going to worry about that because double points are enough to account for all curves. So that's worked out the genus of plane curves with most double points of singularities. Now let's look at the canonical divisors on these curves. So let's first of all take C to be non-singular of degree D. And what we want to do is to find the canonical divisors and find out what their zeros are and so on. And we saw earlier that if you take a form DX on C, this has the following zeros and poles. It has poles of order two at the D points at infinity of C and it has zeros of order one at zeros of C. Delta F over delta Y. We're assuming our curve C's in general position so all the points at infinity are single points and so on. On the other hand, the derivative delta F over delta Y has a pole of order D minus one at the D points at infinity because this is a polynomial of degree D minus one and it has zeros of order one at zeros of itself, of course, completely trivial. And now you see the zeros of this cancel out with the zeros of this at the finite plane. So DX over FY, let's call this FY for short, has zeros of order one at the D points at infinity of order zero order one. And so we've got a pole of order two and we've got to divide that by the pole of order D minus one. So we end up with zeros of order D minus three at the D points at infinity. So the total number of zeros is D minus three times D so this represents the canonical divisor K so we see the degree of the canonical divisor is equal to D times D minus three and which is in fact, two G minus two. And well, that gives us one example of a canonical divisor we can find all the other canonical divisors if we take a polynomial PXY DX over FY. So this has zeros of order D minus three at the points at infinity and this is a pole of order degree D, sorry, degree of P at most points at infinity. So we can see that this is holomorphic at all points if the degree of P is at most D minus three and now the dimension of the space of polynomials of degree D minus three is D minus one, D minus two over two. So this gives us the dimension of the space of holomorphic one forms and you can see that this is just equal to the genus that we calculated earlier. So this shows that for non-singular plane curves the topological genus given by the number of handles is equal to the geometric genus which is the dimension of the space of one forms. We can also describe exactly what the canonical divisors are. So the canonical divisor, so a typical canonical divisor is just the zeros of a holomorphic one form PXY DX over FY which is usually just the zeros of P if we don't worry too much about points at infinity where we recall this is a degree D minus three polynomial. So if we put the points at infinity back in we find that if C is the zeros of some polynomial FXYZ which is homogenous of degree D then a typical canonical divisor effective canonical divisor will just be the intersection of C with a curve A where A is the zeros of a polynomial PXYZ which is homogenous of degree D minus three. So this gives a very simple explicit description of the effective canonical divisors on degree D curves. For example, when D is equal to four we find D minus three equals one so A is just a line. So the canonical divisors on a degree four non-singular plane curve are just given by the intersection of the curve with the points on a line. So we have a completely explicit description of the canonical divisors from non-singular curves. We can do the same for curves with double points. So now suppose the curve has singularities which are all double points like this. Then we see that DX over FY has a pole of order one at these points. This is quite easy to see for instance if this looks locally like X squared equals Y squared we find that DX over FY is going to look locally like DX over two Y. And you can see that DX over two Y on both of these has a simple pole. So PXY DX over FY is holomorphic if P vanishes at all double points. So this describes the canonical divisors of the curve. They just correspond to the common zeroes of our curve and a polynomial PXY where PXY vanishes at all double points. You have to be a little bit careful about the order of the zeroes at double points. What you find is that P will have a zero of some order along this curve and a zero of a possibly different order along this curve and this differential will have zeroes of order one less than that on the two components of these curve. Anyway, this county informally suggests the dimension of the space of these one forms should be D minus one, D minus two over two. And then we should subtract N because we seem to have N different conditions about this differential vanishing at the N double points. However, you have to be a bit careful because it's not entirely clear that these conditions are independent. It's conceivable that if we say force it to vanish at four of these points then that would force it to vanish at another one. So strictly speaking, we've only proved the dimension of the space of one forms is at least equal to this number. In fact, these numbers aren't equal but proving this takes a little bit more effort. In fact, I'm not going to prove it now because it'll be much easier to prove once you've proved most of the rest of the Riemann-Roch theorem.


Indeed. Good morning from Mayan. 9 a.m. 9 a.m. Real MC Mike Hichou and gang. How's things going? Pretty good. Pretty good. Interesting anyway. You checked us out gang. Check this out. What do you see here? What do you see? Oh look at that. What is that? What is that? I just picked this up. Either last Wednesday or the Wednesday before. Check this out. What timing. This is as far as I know the first graphic novel adaptation of George Orwell's 1984. As far as I know. As far as I know. Okay. And man, what a time. What a time. What a time. What a time. I'm inclined to, you know, if I had the funds I'd buy like 10 of these things and just put them on the shelf. Right? What a time. What a time. Stam-fair texts. How are you doing? Hey Chichou. What's up? What's up? Hey Gens. How are you doing? Elder God. I'm sorry to say all my friends are pathetic sheep heading for the trains. Elder God, most of the people from Mayan as well. However, I'm very happy to know certain people that are resistant that have decided they're questioning anyway. At least we will read a few pages of this during a comic book stream. Reading stream. Okay. Let's put it right there. So we see George Orwell right there.
