Okay, well this is our Q&A time, and so we'll be taking questions from the two mics, the open mics on the floor, and then also, we're, if you would like to twit, uh, twit, twit. If you'd like to twit a question. If you'd like to tweet a question, we have our Twitter account up here where you can send us a question over Twitter, and we also are live streaming, so we have questions, questions abound, but we'll open up with one question, and actually I do want to, we've already said hello to, um, and thank you for coming to Senator Banda Puth, thank you again for joining us on the panel, Representative Villarreal, uh, Dennis Campa, and, um, Mary Ellis's Narrows, who is the President of American Sunrise and former San Antonio City Council member, so we're thankful to have them, and we also want to say good morning and thank you for joining us to Tony Van Buren, who's the Senior Vice President for United Way of San Antonio and Bear County, so thank you to our panel for joining us this morning. I'm going to open up with, um, one question to get the ball rolling, and I hope you guys will join us in questions in the audience, so, um, easy, easy, I'm going to softball this one for you, you ready? So, how are we going to make the 6.9 million kids who live in Texas our state's top priority? Easy, easy question. How do we, how do we try to make sure that kids and families are a top priority for the next legislative session and moving forward? And y'all can just kind of jump in. I think we need to stop defining this issue as a partisan issue. Republicans and Democrats are going to fight. We need to tell them, go fight somewhere else. Really, this isn't about a party dominating another one, this is about our children. We need to think about these issues in different terms. I think any issue that falls into the framework of Republican versus Democrat, liberal versus conservative, once it's stuck in that framework, it is so hard to get anything constructive accomplished, whether it's in the Texas legislature and certainly in DC. And so in talking to, I encourage everybody here to have a conversation with your state representative, your state senator, and try to explain to them that this isn't a partisan issue. This is about the future of our community. It's about kids. I think I would begin a little bit before that by suggesting that everybody in this room makes sure that you're registered to vote and that you do so every chance to get. We are blessed in this county to have incredible elected officials who pretty much think the way we all do in this room and pretty much support our initiatives. It's when you get to other parts of the state that they're not quite as like-minded. And so I would urge you, I believe there's a vote coming up soon in a few weeks. I think we have the latest maps and I'll let the senator address that. I don't want to talk maps, but I do want to talk kids. Thank you so much. It's a pleasure to be here, particularly with my colleagues who work so hard in the house. And I see so many friends here and people from different organizations, so it's a joy to be here. My comment is you need to hold your decision makers accountable. When my colleagues care more about a report card from a fringe group that bases their report card on how much you can cut and they're more concerned about those report cards than our children's report cards or kids count report cards, then the priorities are going to reflect exactly the decisions that were made. If you go to the legislature with a cuts only mentality in a fiscal downturn, then all other priorities get left. So you heard what happened to us with education, with health care, but you don't hear the other story. We have 250 vacant positions of DPS troopers in this state. And it's not aware in the budget, right, because it was there, but they have to cut to pay for fuel. We didn't even give them money for cars fuel. And so when you think about the public safety, how does that impact our children? So until the voters, the taxpayers, demand transparency and demand accountability, you're going to have folks that go up there and they are just as pleased with themselves because they voted no. They voted no, they voted no, they voted no. I mean, who takes away 100,000 kids from a vaccine program? Well, that's what your state did. And if you allow us to complete, to do that, then shame on us. So I'm sorry. We've got an opportunity now. Bear County has really maybe not reflective of all that legislative mantra. But when you have 40 new people come into the Texas House and all they're concerned about is cuts, then you get the exact outcomes that happened in 2011. And we're going to continue that unless the people of Texas wake up all over the state and say, you know what, you've got to have more than a cuts only mentality. Thank you, Senator. Let these have end of view for stating it.  Thank you, representative. We are young and the other representatives have been with us.  We in San Antonio. And I just want to have a little bit of the sign is whatever that's out there. But I came because I thought it was important, important for us to stand important for us to have our voice for our children. This is the future of Texas. This is about our children and our community. Henry and I live in the poorest census tract, supposedly in San Antonio, 78207. We chose to live there and to stop complaining about the parents not doing enough teaching their kids and helping them with their homework. Or the teachers in the public schools, Crockett and Mark Hill that happen to be in our area, not doing enough or not paying attention. And decided to just open up American sunrise right in one of the, you know, small little homes that we're out growing already and don't tell the fire department because we've got we've grown their space already. And they come and we help them and we tell the parents, you teach them Spanish at home. It's okay.  And that's important in our Hispanic community. You're right. In any event, it takes us all in San Antonio and Bear County to help to do a little something to voice and to be here. I'm proud of each and every one of you for being here this morning. And I'm most proud of the Benedictine sisters that that are here, which you also allow us to thank you. Will you stand or are they here? Oh, okay. I want to, before we go on to the next question, I want to add two very concrete things to complete the answer to this question, because it's very important one. So I was a little soft on how we should have this conversation. But I think ultimately there are two things that we can do here in Bear County to shift the conversation. Number one, if there is not a political consequence to the cuts that happen in the last legislative session, be sure they will happen again. They will happen again. And so in Bear County, there are competitive legislative races taking place.  I know this is a nonpartisan event, though. We are a 501C3.  Go find out where those competitive elections are taking place. Have a conversation with the candidates in the current office holder and you decide who stands for children and get involved in that campaign. So there's actually just one campaign in Bear County that's competitive that can make a difference. The second thing, whether you live in a district where there is a competitive election or not, if Bear County could boost its voter turnout, if we could boost our voter turnout, we would send a message to statewide elected officials that they need to pay more attention to what's going on in Bear County. So even if you're living in a legislative district where there is a contest, if you can get your neighbors and your family members to participate, if Bear County becomes a leader in voting, we actually can do a much better job of shaping the agenda statewide. Well, thank you very much for that. I wholeheartedly agree with all those sentiments and I'm also interested to hear from, you know, as a San Antonio son, Dennis, and also now with the Annie Casey Foundation, who their primary goal is to put children and families first and they've done it very successfully for several decades. How do you see that we can put kids and children first in Texas? I think you have a very rare opportunity in San Antonio. With the Brain Power Initiative, since it's not on a ballot right now, I can talk about it. But what you have is an opportunity to make significant investments in early childhood. And I think we would all argue that the more we invest in early childhood, we improve educational attainment and educational attainment drives economic mobility. And that's what our country is lacking right now. And I think the other part, San Antonio can demonstrate to the state what they need to do. So San Antonio takes up this issue of the Brain Power Initiative. They can show the state how the state can be responsible like San Antonio is responsible. And the last thing I want to close with is a paraphrase from a good friend of my name, Charlie Brunner, who's a former state senator in the Midwest. And in San Antonio, children represent 28% of the population, but 100% of the future. So what would that future be? Thank you. Okay, any questions at the mic? Yes, ma'am. Katie Reed. And I know you all know who I am, but I want to make sure the audience does also from Northside School District Board of Trustees. And I've been elected official as long as Leticia has. We both ran in 1990, so it's a long history. That's right. And I had one point to make and one question to ask. I remember years ago hearing Steve Murdoch, our state demographer at that time, talking about what the future is going to be like. And he's actually said that San Antonio is what the future will be like. Because we're already there. The rest of the state is not. And definitely the rest of the country is not. But we are a prime example of a very diverse population. Not necessarily a really high income level, but we are doing the right things to make sure that we do achieve the goals with our children. Now that was a long time ago before we had all these budget cuts. But it's something that we need to continue to talk about out there with everybody that we are the future. And we're the future of this state. And the state legislature needs to hear that message.  They won't do that. They won't do that. Well, they funded everything else that they were going to fund before they even got around to public education. And what we got was what was left over. And it was a huge decrease. So I would ask, Mike, how can we assure that education is not going to be again the last item addressed in the budget? Thank you. What happens in January of 2013 when the legislature reconvenes follows from the results that take place on election day? It is that simple. If the current office holders who made these deep cuts in education and health care, women's health are reelected, if their colleagues are reelected, then the takeaway is, see, there's no consequence. We can do it again. And there will be a need to do it again because, as you know, the state still has a structural revenue shortfall, a built in recurring shortfall. And so next session will be just as difficult as the prior legislative session. And with a governor who is saying no to any taxes or anything that looks like it tax, then because the state has to balance its budget, then there will likely be cuts. And so if we wanted a different outcome, we need to turn it turn out in a big way this coming November. I would like to add to that, too, is that a lot of people tell me, well, you just preached to the choir a lot of time. And well, you know what, that may be true. But what I'm looking for now is for the choir to become the preachers. And so it's incumbent upon us to go out and talk to our family members, talk about it at the Thanksgiving dinner table. I'm sorry it needs to happen. You talk about it Thanksgiving dinner table, you talk about it at Easter brunch. You talk about it with your neighbors, you talk about it with your church members, you talk about it with everybody about what needs to happen, what you've learned here today. Because I don't I think people like the idea of cuts, they like the concept of cuts that feels good, we're being responsible. But when you actually get down to it and talk to people about what's actually going on, there was a Texas Tribune poll that came out during session last year, and they started asking people, do you like cuts? And over 50%, the vast majority of people, I think it was like about 60% of people said, yes, cuts, great. And then they said, okay, well, so you like the idea of cuts. Do you think we should cut public education? Oh, no, no, no, it was like 90% said no. Well, what about higher ed? It was like 70%. No, no, health and human services? No, I mean, you went down the whole list of things that we ended up cutting and nobody wanted to cut an actual service that we provided. We just liked the concept of cuts. So I think if you can get people talking about the real life consequences of these cuts that we talked about today, and we learned about today, you can get people to kind of have that aha moment. And that maybe cuts don't sound so good when we get to the real life impact. So yes, ma'am. Thank you. I think it's on. Is it on? Okay. Yeah. Good morning. My name is Kelly O'Keefe and just a brief intro. I'm a consumer advocate. And what I do is essentially help people resolve consumer grievances with large Fortune 2000 companies. My question is for Mike Villarreal. Essentially, one of the things that I have to do is constantly stay abreast of current events.  But essentially, my question is, knowing what's going on with the governor, obviously, you hear a lot of, you know, obvious, not so great publicity with regard to his salaries, his perks and so forth. What do you suggest that we do as individuals and obviously, you know, collectively to essentially voice our displeasure at knowing this information and knowing that people are suffering because of unemployment, because of these cuts in programs that, you know, obviously we're talking about today. I've also spoken with other fellow business owners as well. And there are a lot of people that want to, you know, have this dialogue or at least voice this concern to him. But because he's kind of right, the CEO of the state kind of does what he wants. It seems like in a lot of instances and very pro business and I'm a small business, but we're talking about big business. We just want to kind of get your take on that. Well, it goes back to the advice that was given just a while ago. We need to be a voice for these concerns with our friends and our family members. And whenever there's a chance to enlighten someone who says something like, Well, you know, the problem is all these entitlements in Texas. We need to tell them, Well, actually, you know how poor you have to be to receive cash assistance. Family of three, we learned they need to earn no more than $2,300 a year, a year. A lot of people don't know that. And so I think we need to be the preachers sharing this information. I'm going to download this and carry it with me. And that's what we all need to be doing. And ultimately, our voice is clearest is most heard. It makes a difference. It is counted literally counted. When we go vote, when we go vote. And that's what needs to happen. And actually, we're at time. So let's take one question from from Twitter, and we'll wrap it up. Okay, so one of this is actually came in a few times, but actually, this is Corey had him or she's the co author on the port. So say yay, Corey. So the question is, what options does Texas have to bring in revenue? Speaking to the revenue question, we said we have a structural revenue deficit. So what options do we have? I'll take that. Let me tell you, the options, there are a lot of options on the table, but we weren't allowed to even discuss them. I think there was an intense necessity for because some of our elected leaders were seeking higher office, that they were so polarized that there was no options on the table. We have huge big corporate loopholes that we could have done. In fact, in the Senate on six different occasions, we had amendments to bring in just for the school foundation program. So we could just pay for enrollment growth, about $1.2 billion by eliminating a big tax loophole in loopholes that we give huge businesses that no other state gives. So it's not like, okay, they're going to go somewhere else because they have to pay the same tax someplace else. But we've got to redo our margins tax. The thing that was enacted in 2006, which caused that structural deficit. But the real factor here is that if you can't even discuss it, or allow local communities, the option to even put a tax on themselves, whether it's for infrastructure on highways or water or the capital side, which I'm so excited that Mayor Castro is going to do this brainpower initiative. It's a result of a bill that I passed 10 years ago called better jobs to allow communities to sustain and to put money into the human capital side. And there are five categories, pre-K, after school care, long term training. It was wonderful. So we could do that. But unless you have the format and the legislature to be able to discuss, the other thing is you got to get the suits in the room. And what I say the suits is the CEOs and the board members. I see people here who sit on boards in all of our not for profits. And there's folks on your boards that are from the major 500 companies. If we keep going down the path we're going, the educational level of our students will not give them the opportunity to live a life with dignity. But on the business side, they won't make enough money to buy the goods and services that our businesses need to say economically viable. It should be an enlightened self interest. And so talk about it to folks who are in the big business. Because small business owners are already there. They want health insurance for their employees. They want to be able to do that. But if you don't get folks talking about we've got to redo our revenue system to meet the needs of a growing Texas, then we're going to end up the same situation we were last session. Here are five taxes or in revenue strategies. Okay, five revenue strategies. Number one, the Senator mentioned the business tax. It is broken. Business taxpayers actually want to fix this because they spend a lot more money hiring CPAs and accountants to try to be in compliance. Very complicated. So they want it to simply simplified. And we want it to be reformed. So it has a broader base and more people are included in the business tax. So that's number one. Number two is there are subsidies that cost us billions of dollars. Comptroller has a report. She estimates total amount $40 billion a year. There are some that we will certainly keep like the homestead exemption. There are others that we should take a serious look at like subsidizing gas drilling. An exemption that was snuck through the legislature in 2003 in an omnibus bill. Number three, there is discussion about a vehicle registration fee to help fund transportation infrastructure. There is a discussion right now happening about a fee on water services to help fund water development infrastructure in the state of Texas. And finally, a discussion that happened started two sessions ago that I think still should be on the table is at least indexing the gas tax so that it does not decline with inflation. And if we were to do that, a part of that funding stream actually goes to education. In addition to that information you got today, we at the center, all of our policy analysts are available for to come to you and give additional presentations. And we have an excellent team who works on tax and budget issues who can talk about these details with your board. And I want to make a point here too. Mary Alice's Narrows is a great example of what you should actually be doing. She advocated. She came up and advocated with me that we have one more question. So can you guys hang with me for just a couple more minutes? And it worked. It's amazing. She came, she asked, I said yes. That's what happens with your legislation. I mean, maybe not yes, but you know, at least you get informed, right? It's amazing how many times a legislator just says I didn't know that they can they encounter thousands of bills. They may not have heard from anybody and you think, oh, somebody's talking to him about that. Don't assume that. Be that voice. Come advocate and maybe you'll get a yes. So one last question. Thank you, Mary Alice. Very much for advocating for me to present. It probably is not a question. However, I welcome your comments panel. In 1997, the Violence Against the Women's Act was created. VAWA. It stands a very difficult fight in the House these weeks, these days. It was voted down at the Senate. Traditionally, for obvious reasons, people voted with reason to approve the allocation. Today is in great peril. I represent as the CEO of the family violence prevention services, the better women and children shelter, one of its programs. 12,476 children. Because of numbers like that, I changed the name of the better women's shelter to better women and children's shelter. Two thirds of the population, domestic violence victims are children, are not women, are children. I don't know if they are part of this report, but it is a very sobering, important number. Representative Villarreal, when you say go send them to fight somewhere else, I wish I could send them into the stratosphere. Because they're still fighting in Washington and those federal allocations make it to all the way to our homes to where children who are in the CPS system, children who are in each and every one of the institutions and nonprofits that are represented here today are affected and participate in this report. Can you please give us a hand to make sure that VAWA is recognized as an act that should not be partisan? And I exhort my colleagues in this room today to become informed as to what the politics will do to the people we represent in services. This is not the moment to be lamenting what happened in Austin about a year ago. It is time that we become very educated as to who it is that we are voting for. And thank you very much because I know that I'm preaching to the choir. Thank you. Well, thank you so much. I'm going to make a quick comment on that. Just so many leaders. Part of the thing certainly the act needs to be recertified. It needs to be funded. But that's at a federal level. And I think that our community is very supportive of it. But Washington has lost its focus. And I'm going to say this as a true proud Democrat. It is so dysfunctional there. It's no wonder why there's only 8% approval rating for our Congress. They've lost their way. It's not about winning or losing. It's just about making the other side look bad. And when it comes to Texas, there's a great misinformation and misunderstanding between Texas budget and policy and Washington budget and policy. So a lot of the I think folks that got elected was this backlash of they need to get their spending under control. What most people don't realize is Texas has never had a deficit budget, not because we wouldn't do so, but because it's required by the Constitution that we have a balanced budget. So don't let folks come beat their chest and say we passed a balanced budget. We've always passed a balanced budget. It's required by the Constitution. But I think the key to the reenactment of the Violence Against Women Act and many of the programs, ladies, you need to get mad again. 20 years ago, I saw women be very upset. And I've seen women now. I haven't seen them this angry in a long time. Do you remember when Clayton Williams was running for governor and he made that statement about rape that if it's just like rain, if it's inevitable, just relax and enjoy it? Well, we responded by electing a woman governor. Ladies, you need to tell the story about what's happening to our kids and you need to tell it in the suburbs. You need to tell it where the votes that there's really some competitive battles there. And and when we get those whether you call them soccer moms or grandmas, where they have to say it's our kids that are important. And women are angry about a whole lot of stuff in women's health. Use that anger to motivate other folks to get that information, join with similar groups. Texas can do better, but it's not going to do better without you getting involved. I so appreciate the panel's comments and their wisdom today.  I'm going to pull a CNN on the panel, and I'm going to say we're we're running to commercial, but you have 10 seconds to tell me based on your experience and your job and your work, where you hope that we go forward for kids in Texas. Tony, 10 seconds, I've never done that. Each not across. I think everything, you know, I echo everything that's been said here. And I just constantly and you actually pointed this out to me a couple years ago. Unfortunately, when the economy goes down, we take it out on the ones around us that we supposedly love. And that's the domestic violence issue. It's the child abuse. It's the senior issue. And so I mean, somehow we've got to draw that correlation to some of the business folks about, you know, as the economy goes so does, you know, our society and our social ills and really do a whole lot better job of communicating that. But ultimately, I think everybody needs to vote and vote as often as you can. So thank you. With regard to children on the personal level, I always tell people, I feel like I'm the cup runneth over girl. I know I've got we've got six children and now five grandchildren. And so far, everybody healthy. You know, that demographic about the Texas and the enthusiasm of Texas families to increase their numbers. Well, I resemble that remark. But on the public side, I think it's all our responsibility to be the cup half empty. Because we could do so much better. And we know that the reason that we've got even as best statistics as we do is because of the vibrancy of our not for profits and the resilience of so many families that when paleised with all odds, they can overcome them. Just think with the resiliency factor of so many of our families in the community, what could they do if their children got a quality education, if they had job training, if they had healthcare, and if they had a system that supported their success. We can do this. In San Antonio, because we care and because each of you showed up this morning, you care. And I know that if you do, I want to say that we can do better. And I would venture way out to the technology and say we can do Skype events at your home with our representatives giving that message out via Skype. You can do it via Comcast or podcast. You know, we've got to get smart about how we spread the word in our own particular neighborhood, in our own particular precinct. And the representatives are so right about turning up to vote. If you do not, then that message does not ripple out and it does not get back to Austin. And so my message to you is if you care, and we all do, you've got to vote and you've got to do the podcast at home and you've got to do the Twitter's and the Facebook. And let's get into it because it works. One thing I'm going to do before November is write down a list of names, five names, of people who I know do not have a history voting, but I'm going to get them to vote. I'm going to ask that many of my friends follow this advice that we all identify five people and we get them out to vote. And before they vote, we tell them about our concerns about the future of Texas. Two mics. So I do double talk here. You know, I'm biased. My responsibility is state policy reform. And I have the opportunity to invest in 53 groups, 50 states and three territories to do this type of work to ensure that data leads to good policy, good investments in kids and families. But when I think about my home and my home state, I think about something that the Brookings Institution taught me not that long ago, but in an international panel on economic competitiveness. And that is that most innovation is not happening at the national level globally. We know it's not happening in our country that innovation is occurring at the state level and at the regional level. So I think if you want change to occur to improve conditions for kids and family, you're going to have to do it at the state level and you're going to have to do it locally. So and what that takes in what everyone has said about get out to vote is really having the will. Thank you very, very much for everyone coming out. And please let me know if you have any additional questions will be up here for a few minutes. Thank you. Well, it was.


People in the Bemidji area are concerned after a video showing a man assaulting an elderly man goes viral. The following video may be disturbing to some of our viewers. The video has been circling on Facebook and shows the exact moment of the attack. It's not clear where this assault happened in Bemidji. The Bemidji Police Department released a statement saying they are aware of the video and were contacted when the incident first happened. The Bemidji Police Department adds that the person responsible was identified and arrested at the time and that charges have been filed in the county's attorney's office. There's no word of the condition of the assault victim in the video. Neither the victim or the aggressor were identified by police.


Despite recent advances in cancer immunotherapy, only a minority of colorectal cancer patients can potentially benefit from immune checkpoint inhibitors highlighting an unmet need for improving survival in metastatic colorectal cancer, MCRC.  Ideally, therapies would target tumor-restricted antigen selectively found in tumors while overcoming cellular and molecular inhibitory pathways, self-tolerance, and T-cell exhaustion to mount an effective cytotoxic T-cell response and clinical benefit in patients with MCRC. This article was authored by Barbara Bashir and Adam E. Snooke.


the NPTEL course on an introduction to programming through C++. I am Abhiram Ranade and in this lecture I will continue to talk about structures. So some reflections on what we have seen so far. So we propose that all attributes of each entity in our program should be grouped into a structure. And we said that the benefits for this are that it would reduce the clutter overall. It will make it easy to pass the entity to a function. We can pass it as a single argument rather than all the different variables which are associated. And because we have fewer arguments, we will be more likely to write lots of functions. And also each function will have its concern very limited and therefore understanding what is going on in the function and reasoning about it in general will be easier to do. Well now here is an observation about how such entities are processed. So typically there may be many attributes that an entity might have but they are accessed in only a few different ways. So I am going to take two examples. One is a vector from physics and another is the Q that we had in the taxi dispatch problem that we saw earlier. So in both these cases the vector and the Q will have many attributes or many members. But you will note that usually we do not read or update the individual members in isolation. A natural operation requires us to simultaneously access or update several attributes and in a very specific manner. So what does it mean? So it means really that we should support this kind of access and update rather than the update involving individual members. So let me show you these examples a little bit more in more detail. So vectors from physics. So in physics vectors are used to represent lots of things, velocities, positions, displacements, and fields and say if it is a vector in three dimensions then it can be indicated by its components in the x, y, z directions. So maybe we might have a vector type V3 and it can contains members x, y and z. There could be other representations as well I mean there could be the polar representation for example or the cylindrical coordinate representation. So here is a key observation. So for this representation you will rarely read just the x component or rarely update just the y component. What you will typically do is will involve something with will involve all three coordinates. So maybe we will add two vectors together or maybe we will scale up a vector. So both these operations will involve changing all the coordinates and that change will happen in a very specific manner. The taxi dispatch problem we saw earlier and it is discussed in chapter 14 of the book. So briefly we have customers arriving and how to be assigned to waiting taxis. An important part of that solution was a queue and into this queue we put the IDs of the waiting taxis or rather the IDs of the waiting drivers. And the main part of the queue was an array and these elements were the ones in which we stored the IDs. And then there was a variable n waiting indicating how many drivers were waiting and a variable front which indicated the position of the first waiting driver. And again we can make the observation that the queue was accessed using operations insert, remove and initially we had to set n waiting equal to front equal to 0. We did not arbitrarily examine the elements of the array or change in waiting or front in isolation. So whenever we made the change there was some high level operation that we had in mind and our code was implementing that high level operation. So the insight from all of this is that first of all we should put all the attributes of an entity into a structure. But in addition we should provide functions with which to access the attributes. And these member functions, these functions are customarily member functions or the functionality that we want for accessing is provided by something called member functions. And these member functions are the main topic of this lecture. So to put it differently we should avoid accessing attributes directly, why is that well very likely this indicates that we are doing an operation that has not been clearly thought through and therefore maybe it contains errors. So clearly something real or even abstract but sort of something that we clearly know if something that we clearly understand like a Q or a vector has its own logic and that logic has to be incorporated into functions and we are going to describe this notion of member functions which is going to be most useful for incorporating such logic. So we must think about and catalogue the right ways of accessing an entity. So here is the outline of this lecture, we are going to have a bit more discussion on the vectors from physics then we will introduce this notion of member functions. And I should mention here that member functions were not present in C, they are an extension to what we inherited from C and the extension is proposed and implemented in C++. So this is kind of a more modern feature if you will. After discussing member functions we will talk about taxidispatch and see how that as well can be written using member functions. So what did we discuss in this part of the lecture? So we said that it is not enough to just define a struct to hold entities. Usually we will also want functions which work on these structs. In C++ you can make the functions a part of the struct definition itself and such functions are called member functions. In some ways member functions are similar to control panels found on the front of appliances. So you are expected to operate an appliance through the buttons or other controls that have been specifically provided. You are not expected to innovate or you are not expected to do tricky things when you operate an appliance. Say for example you are not expected to open the back and change some capacitors or change some wiring. So if you want to change the channel on a television there is a very, very clear, clear way to do that and analogously the thought is that member functions indicate to you what is sort of the clear proper way of doing things. And in some sense you do not want users to go looking into the data members themselves and changing the data members because they might be making mistakes in doing that. So next we are going to develop this idea and for that we are going to look at vectors from physics. But let us take a quick break.

We are Appalachian Wireless. Pikeville High School hosted an area tournament for archery, which began on Friday, January 13th and continued into Saturday, January 14th. We have archers coming from all over Eastern part of the state. We also have archers coming from West Virginia to our tournament today. We host this tournament so the kids will have an opportunity to come and compete and show the skills that they've developed over the year. Archers in the tournament not only got to compete as a team but also individually giving each student the chance to win even if their team did not. So archery is a wonderful sport in the fact that you compete not only as part of a team but you also compete as an individual. So therefore, however you perform gets recognized either way. We're very fortunate we're in a sport that everyone gets to participate and has the opportunity to show their skills. We have archers that come in and need special accommodations for different problems and we make sure that we take care of those. We have archers that have to have spotters and we have archers that have to sit in chairs but we wanna make sure it's an equal opportunity sport and everyone has the opportunity to shoot and compete. Roughly 350 archers participated in the area tournament held at Pikeville High School between Friday and Saturday. Despite weather disruptions, many teams still turned out to compete. For Mountaintop News, I'm Kelsey Dean.


Okay, so let me go ahead and do an example with relative velocity. This is a pretty classic problem. It's all over the place, so I'm just going to make up my own small variation of it. We're doing real physics. I've got to take off my jacket.  I don't remember. Okay, so here is situation. Let's say I have a river, and let's say it's ten meters wide, I'm completely just making up stuff here, and the water's flowing. So let's say the magnitude of the velocity of water with respect to the ground is one meter per second, and so here I'm using the notation of the water with respect to the ground. Okay? And right here when you look at the water, it's going one meter per second that way. Now you have a boat, that's my boat, and the velocity of the boat with respect to the water has a maximum velocity of, let's say, three meters per second, okay? And so the question is, how would I have to aim at what angle so that I would travel straight across the river? That's the question. Okay, so I have my magnitude of the velocity of the boat with respect to the water and the magnitude of the water with respect to the ground. Now what do I want? Let's say if I look at this boat from the ground, I want to see it going straight across. You know, do that, it'll be like this, aimed this way and going straight across. Okay? That's what I want. So if I want to see what's the velocity of the boat with respect to the ground, okay? And so I know that's going to be the velocity of the boat with respect to the water as a vector, plus the velocity of the, okay, so if I add those two things, the trick to remember is if these subscripts are in the middle, then I get the ones on the outside. And I show you how to do that in the book. Okay, so what do I know about the velocity of the boat with respect to the ground? Let me call this xy axis. Then I know that, let me say, the velocity of the boat with respect to the ground in the x direction is going to be zero meters per second. I want that to be true. So that's going to be the velocity of the boat with respect to the water in the x direction plus the velocity of the water with respect to the ground in the x direction, which is zero, right? Because it's, oh no, I'm sorry, not zero. Okay, so that's my x direction. Then I have zero equals velocity of the boat with respect to the water in the x direction plus one meter per second. And if I, let me redraw my boat here, here's my boat vector. This is the velocity of the boat with respect to the water, theta. So this is going to be the velocity of the boat with respect to the water in the x direction right there, that component right there. So I can write this as zero equals VB water, the magnitude, the whole thing, negative, because it's in the negative direction. Now I have the opposite side of that triangle, so I need to have, say the sign of theta is opposite over j, so that means, I mean opposite over hypotenuse. So the hypotenuse times the sign of theta would be BW, the velocity of the boat with respect to the water in the x direction, so that's it right there. And then I have this plus one. So right there, now I can go ahead and solve for theta. So I can say VBW, sine theta equals one meter per second, sine theta equals one meter per second, the magnitude of the velocity of the boat with respect to the water is three meters per second, and the units cancel. You can't have the sign of something, have something with units. So theta is going to be the inverse sine of one third. And let me see, so 19.5 degrees, so that's that angle right there. So you have to aim 19.5 degrees to the left in order to go straight across. Now another common extended part to this is, well how long does it take you to get across? Okay, so now if I just, if I look at the velocity of the boat with respect to the ground in the y direction, then I can, I know the distance in the y direction, I can find it. I can do this. The velocity of the boat with respect to the ground in the y direction equals delta y ground over delta t. So I can, I know delta y ground is ten meters, so I can find delta t. What's the velocity of the boat with respect to the ground in the y direction?   So it's going to be three meters per second times cosine of nineteen point five degrees. Okay, let me erase this. So now I can solve for delta t. It's going to be ten meters, my change in y with respect to the ground divided by the y component three meters per second cosine nineteen point five degrees. And if I put that in, I get ten divided by, I get three point five three seconds. Does that make sense? We can, well the units work, right, meters cancel and one divided by one over seconds does give me seconds. And it does make sense because what if there was no, what if there's a pond? If there was a pond, you'd just aim straight across because the velocity of the boat with respect to the, the velocity of the water with respect to the ground would be zero, so these two would be the same. So now if I'm just going three meters per second across a ten meter pond, it would take me three seconds, ten, no wait, ah, if that's three and that's ten, then it'd be ten divided by three, so three point three three. Now I'm aiming a little to the left, so I'm, I'm not going straight across, it's going to take me longer. Okay, it's going to take me longer so that is longer than going straight across in still water, so that's good. Another question that you could ask that I'm not going to ask, but you could do this. How far is this path like that and, and how long, and how far downstream does the person travel? If they aimed, oh actually, no that's a different question. The question is what if they aimed straight across? Would they get across faster or not? And how far downstream this way would they go? Yeah, so I'll leave that one for you. Okay.


The following is a presentation of TFNN Trade what you see With Larry Pezzavento Call now toll free at 1-877-927-6648 or internationally at<PHONE_NUMBER> Now Larry Pezzavento Okay folks, I posted a chart here showing the Dow Jones back in August of 1987 This was August the 25th right here on this particular date It was known as harmonic convergence by all the Mayan calendar followers Basically you had six planets all lined up in the sign of cancer and it was good They were getting ready to I think it was cancer by the way. I don't know exactly it was It wasn't Leo's the one after that that would would have been after that that would have been I doesn't make any difference to sign They were all at zero degrees This was right out of the brat This basically was what the model for the Bradley model had been done We came down into the solar eclipse on September the 27th We rallied up into October the second and then we came down during this time frame within a day or two Arch Crawford and I were both in Los Angeles I was living there arch was still in New York and we were guests at Bill Griffith show and Ron and sauna and it was on FNN financial news network and KWHY in Los Angeles And that we both said there was going to be a very very significant crash Type market coming in here in October of this year I didn't give the exact date, but I said it will be sometime in October And I said the Dow will down be down more than 300 points in one day the biggest down day the Dow had During that big up rent or up run was 198 points will remember 198 points when you're trading at 2,700 was a lot But the fact is it dropped 16% on that day on that day. There were only 13 stocks up on the the New York Stocks New York futures index only 13 stocks out of 1600. That was really quite amazing Those are the ones that went up the most after that But what I did was the way I worked is that by the way on August the 25th that day George Lindsey who was a Call he did three peaks in the domed house. He'd been on Louis Rue Kaiser a lot He had also been predicting the stock market was going to to get ready to have a crash He died on that day. He died on the high of August the 25th of 1987 So anyway, this is where we stand. I want to show you some of these now as we walk through these because I think this was important If you'll remember back here get back here I want to get to One at a time so I can walk through slowly To understand where we are and where we're going to be going and I think I can do that this way right here All right, this is when I've been working for Tfnn for a couple years here. I started in 07 Back in this area right in here. I met tom who guard over in here And the market had come down into this and I just started writing the letter For them and I said this is going to be The biggest rally we've had in 70 years that goes back to 1938 folks And so anyway, what we're going to see here We had a three drive to a bottom pattern And this was the bradley model getting ready to turn on march the 5th through march the 9th And then it would be going up for quite a while. That's that's all I was talking about I've spoken many times here with our guest chainsmoyne who'll be a guest tomorrow about how these What they call stelliums or all these planets line up together and that's something that we're looking at now if you remember Let's get back here about It's been several months ago. Believe it or not But we were right here on the lunar eclipse on the 27th and we had mercury going retrograde right there There was the bradley model the bradley model folks picks timing dates. It doesn't tell you volatility It doesn't tell you that it's going to go up that much It did this time, but it doesn't always do that, but we made the bottom down here. That was a triple abcd Pretty much a no-brainer and we had a little bit of a pullback here Into december and then boom the rocket ship that we're into now And we're really really close in fact are really close I wanted to bring to your attention how close we really are So here's where we are folks as you can see we're in this zone right near starting here the 10th Which is today when we have the uh, we have a new moon. I believe yes, and uh So we're going to see whether this turns here in the next couple of days What's important about this folks is now this shows a lot of volatility there down side that may or may not be true It's good for timing But sometimes it'll just chop around and sometimes it just doesn't work But when you stop and think that they could do this 300 years before This ever happened and this is what happened. You gotta say well, maybe there's something to this And that's that's what i'm trying to bring to your attention now because we're up at this level We've got we've already been through this stuff with the dow Jones and where it is and how it got here and all that stuff And now we're looking at this thing right here. So that's what i'm paying attention to I watched that cycle show Last night with larry williams and the other fellow from uh, denmark I think his worry was from and I understood what larry was talking about But again, he was saying that you know, no one knows for sure what's going to happen next And so that's what you got to realize is focus on your risk And this is where you got to be playing the game right here right now That's that's what i'm watching. So we'll see what happens here Over the next part of what we're looking at And then we're going to go from here I didn't do every year of the uh bradley model because the reason for that is I didn't keep them over all those years All I did do was I watched to see you know, what they were going to do when they were supposed to be doing it And I know that it has a high degree of working But when you've got patterns that line up at the same time that the bradley model is lining up Like we have now Here is the dow Jones. Okay. Look, there's where we were. This is just back on the 28th of december That was just 10 days ago. We haven't taken that high out. We still might And maybe this breaks out to the upside and You know, who knows but boy the fact that we went up to those exact numbers You have to pay close attention to that. That's very important If you pay attention to this number right here at the bottom You have to pay attention with this bottom at this this period up here at the top That's my opinion. Look at what happened in january of 22 You had a beautiful three drives. You had three two three drives one two three one two three And then you had the big move down to down move from 3,600 The 28 60. Okay. That was a big three eight two right there in october We highlighted that quite a bit Then we had the pullback here and all i'm doing is when i'm watching these folks i'm matching the patterns To what i'm seeing to try to find a place to enter where you don't have to risk You know an arm and a leg and that's the main thing that we're going to be looking at. Okay Now I wanted to talk just a second. Let me get back up here So we'll take a look at what some of these charts are because we have a We if you're oh good, we just made our price objective here for the day in the In the s and p it's 48 11. There's your abcd pattern right up there So that should be the high of the day. Now, you see we've made a new high There's big divergence here. You see in the the uh Dow Jones, we did not make a new high. We did make a small garlic just now, but uh That's neither here nor there put it up here.  Okay There was a man Back in the 1930s. His name was robert roger bapston.  This is a really interesting story I followed this man for a long time And uh, he left a legacy that it's pretty much unparalleled. So we're going to talk about roger bapston When we get back To the next segment here.

I'm going to talk about roger babson. He was born in 1875. He died in 1967 He predicted the stock market was going to crash in 1929. He was a little early. He thought it was going to be july In fact, they made fun of him in the financial press and He didn't really take it very well. And so he really didn't do very much. He founded the bapston institute, which is a non-profit organization for Understanding research and it's still active today. He founded three colleges babson college Weber college and another one. There were three of them that are still operating today liberal arts schools Um, he lived to be 91. He was a huge fan of albert, uh, albert einstein Isaac newton and he was such a fan that he bought isaac newton's personal bed At an auction and he had it for many years there in wellesley massachusetts where he lived and where babson college was and uh, I had heard that this bed had a Headboard that was scrolled in with the uh was some kind of spiral So I had a friend of mine go over there and try to do it and it was there and it had spirals But the organization would not allow any cameras. Uh, later on the bed was sold back to the uh, a state of Isaac newton taking it back to worchester england, uh Where it sets today they have beds now that are made now that have these spirals on it And they are the fibonacci spirals the main thing about babson, which you have to realize He actually ran for presidency against franklin delin or roosevelt and wendell wilkie. He finished third And he was on an independent ticket and he never ran for office again after that And he just did his thing and he was an investor and speculator kept a very low key Very little about him part of any of his papers were impossible to find. I searched for years I couldn't do it, but he was very good at what he did and he did a good job at it So I just wanted to bring that to your attention now I mentioned wendell wilkie and when we talk about timing folks Wendell wilkie was running for the office of president of the united states against f dr And roger babson He has without a doubt the very best timing signal that has ever been produced in technical analysis or any other kind of analysis Okay take you back to the white house in december of 1941 it was actually december 7th, and it was a breakfast meeting at the white house And wendell wilkie of course getting ready to run for president said we are not going to go to war with japan in 30 days 30 years or 300 years it will never happen That was at a breakfast meeting At the white house on december the 7th now stop and think there's an eight-hour time difference over to hawaii So by the time they're cleaning up the dishes We're at war with japan and war war two has started. So that's uh, that's what the kind of guy he was I'm not saying that the fact that that comes out of a book by uh, it's called the expert Speak by christopher surf and victor kevanski. I keep it on here because it's about 400 pages of everybody that has made predictions and how wrong they be I'm on the first 34 pages in bull type Not i'm not in the book at all, but anyway, they just shows you the offer different thing the president of ducca records Okay, turned down the Beatles. He said these floppy top guitar guys are history. Hello operator You know, there's just so many of them that were there that uh, just uh, Absolutely incredible to uh, read them and you just wouldn't believe Uh computers will never be any good except for technical people in manufacture. They'll never be used by the home I mean that was a guy that was running uh computer sciences. I believe him It's just really amazing some of the predictions people have made Including myself only i'm not in the book, but we're wrong all a lot So all i'm saying is be really careful where we are right now folks because we're in a zone Where things could get really nasty now. I've said before It's not going to be really apparent to most people until we get to this level here in the s and p I want to get this up here to show you where we should be now I'm just going to go to the weekly so we can see it pretty quickly Okay, now there's the low that we had in october. Okay, there's october low and every there's the abcd's, okay Now if we go more than 78 percent of that, okay, which is right here So when we start getting below 4300 that's 300 handles From where we are right now folks. So if we start getting below here Get ready to make sure your portfolios don't take too much damage because this is going to be Really interesting the key spot of course to see if there's going to be really good support from my perspective is right here At the 382 that's basically 45 74 Now what I will do is when it breaks should it get below folks. I'm already short I told the folks today. This is the probably the place you ought to do it And I've just said get in there and get short I didn't even give a price as anything above 4800 to me was a gift And I gave a big wide berth as a stop. I mean larry Williams uses a 50 point stop I didn't use that I I used a 30 point stop, but I believe I think that's probably what we're going to be watching here is how it gets through this number right here remember This is a weekly. So it's going to take a while for this to happen. Remember the low this week has been 47 13 We had a pretty big break We had a pretty good break this week. There's the break right there Let's move it over a little bit to see that was not a small break Look at that. We came all the way down there to all the way down there And now we're coming right back up and we're almost at the 78 percent level I think we're within a heartbeat. Oh by golly. That's what happened. It hit it on the number Shut the front door 41 48 12. What was the high? 48 13 that's not so bad. So anyway, that's what I'm looking for here folks I'm looking for something that's going to be pretty pretty pretty nasty All right now. I've got a couple of things that we got to cover the second part of this show that I got from Larry show that I think that he's looking at it. So I'm certainly going to be watching too But here is the treasury bonds that we just missed getting filled here today If we're trying to get filled right here We missed it hasn't really done it yet But keep your order in there because I still think we could I still think we could pop up and get to that level here in the treasury bonds The other one was we had been long hogs and I told the folks I think you probably should get short hogs Let's just get it up here. Let's do the first. We'll do the daily. Okay, because that's where we came Okay, there's the daily there was our 61 retracement yesterday. Okay, that was also exactly 50 percent that make this a 135 we bought them down here. We sold them by said to get out of them So you had a good chance if nothing else you're unchanged right now on the day So make sure you're out of the out of the hogs. I would personally Be looking to be short these because all we've done so far We've come down. We've rallied up into the zone here But I still think this is an area where you want to be selling hogs with a buy stop About this level right here now. Larry Williams talked about soybeans I don't have much time here on this segment And I've got some questions to answer from some of our friends in new jersey and also dubai And I'll answer those when we come back from the break, which will be here post taste I believe we got a minute to go. Let's go one of the things I'll be talking about By the way, our guests tomorrow will be shane's mullion wolf trader.com And that's pretty much our end of the guests for this week Up sorry rich Anderson will be our guest on friday because we have a big rain green report And I think we're getting ready for a pretty good move here in the grain markets And I'm going to be watching july soybeans because that's been my favorite over the 50 60 years I've been doing this but we'll be talking about that when we get right back<PHONE_NUMBER> The gold report As a precious metal gold is still king It continues to hold the most effective safe haven and hedging properties across the global major trading hubs of the london otc market the us futures market and the shanghai gold exchange The gold report Tom o'brien publishes his weekly gold report every monday morning for subscribers consisting of coverage of the xa u hui gdx the dollar bonds the south african rand As well as 25 different mining equities with specific buy sell recommendations The gold report New subscribers get a 30-day money back guarantee so you have nothing to risk subscribe to tom o'brien's gold report newsletter now at tfnn.com Currencies commodities and bond markets are as important as ever right now with how they're driving the volatility in equity markets across the globe Which is why it's a great time to try out teddy keg stats tiger 4x report Teddy keg stat breaks down the 4x markets every monday using his 30 plus years of experience as a trading veteran of futures 4x stocks and options Teddy releases his weekly tiger 4x report every monday morning with coverage of all the major currency pairs Including the dollar index the euro dollar pound dollar dollar swiss Dollar yen as well as many more and he also has weekly coverage of the crude oil market and the 30-year t bonds As they both influence 4x markets tremendously when you sign up for the tiger 4x report You also gain instant access to teddy's 60 minute webinar archive.

These farmers thinking about what they want to be doing They'll have those planted by late march Early april of course and then the growing season starts, but if you'll remember back here in 21 We were making a bottom down here about 980 We went from 980 to $14 over the next year and a half That's a $30,000 move that we backed off and we went up and said that's what larry was talking about is that the fundamentals Which I had no idea that even looked at Says that that looks like they could be good for the soybeans for this year That I don't know all I'm going to be doing is looking at the technical picture and we've got a big report Coming up here and that's going to tell us where we are right now As you remember back in 21 after this bottom was made we did make a beautiful bottom here Right around the 4th of july Actually, it was june 9th We made the bottom right exactly the 61 percent retracement and then the market went up and made this massive quadruple top up Well hit one two three four five six times Saying there was some resistance and now we've dropped $2 a bushel pretty much from 14 to 12 and we're Setting right at the 61 percent retracement right here on the july beans the march beans are already below That level so what we're going to be deciding is with this report coming out We want to decide where we would be a buyer of the july soybeans here And remember they haven't even begun. This is a figment of everybody's imagination here folks And if you like abcds, I just spotted one here Look, there's your ab leg right here. There's your cd leg right there and look where the high came in at 1420 and the high was 1421 that's not too bad. Now. Here's where we are So the first thing you want to do is you got a double bottom in here So you want to see what the expansion numbers are going to be on the double bottom? And as you can see we are headed down. We're already going through the 127 So there's our logical choice right here. That's for me now. That's down 30 cents Now that's going to be a lot. Okay, so but this is where the game is played So I like this number right here. I like both of these numbers the difference is 9 11 cents between the two So i'm going to be putting them in right here 161 8. Okay, that's going to be the uh expansion of this move right here And if this is also the 78 percent level is going to come in right there Okay, so I have to decide which of these two i'm going to take Mathematics proceeds geometry as newtons has hindstein said this is mathematics. This is geometry And so what the reason why is just to pull back is all it is it actually is mathematics too But here's what we're watching. I'm thinking of here 12 25. That's down 30 cents from where we are right now That means we have trading for thursday and also for friday, but i'm going to be buying At 12 26 and I got to be a farmer folks So this farmer is going to have to risk about 30 cents to start this farm. It's going to be $1,500 risk You can't risk 10 15 cents on these because they're going to be pretty wild So your stop is going to be half for just a little bow $11 I guess right down in here Little excuse me a little below $12 your stop would be Right down in this zone right here, but that could be a really interesting one Not as interesting as the one we're looking at in the stock market right now, but it could be an interesting one So let's play close attention to that speaking of stock Let's get this other stuff here. Hold on a second. I've got to get some of these out because I've got so much to cover I'll talk to the gold in just a minute. So let's bear with me for a second Here is our soybean oil now. We've got a major. We remember let's get the daily soybean up here If you like the daily this will probably be the leader of the pack on the way up There was our number right there. We bought it at 46 60 It's now up a little over a thousand bucks. So I would say you're up three days. You got a report coming in I don't like going into reports. So I would take profits here and look to buy it on a pullback So if you're going to buy it on a pullback and you're in the oil and you want to buy it So all you're going to do now. Let's go to the 60 minute And uh, you'll see there's the run that we had gee We've had a pretty good run here with no three eight twos. I believe Didn't have any there didn't have any there So the first three eight two would come in if this is the high. I don't know if it is or not Now that's nothing that's down 60. So here's where you want to be looking at it probably uh from a buying stamp Oh, this is a place to buy it. Hello operator. Pay attention larry. They're trying to tell you something here There's your left shoulder right over here Okay, here comes your right shoulder right here Alrighty, all right. So there's your left shoulder. There's your right shoulder Your report's coming in here on uh, friday the uh, 12th, I think right the 12th That's going to be right about there That's going to be pretty close to the cycle stuff. Let's just eyeball it just for the kicks and giggles There's the first cycle Go up to the second cycle. There it is. It's going to be close So as long as we can stay here's the ideal spot right here at 47 25 That's down a point from where we are right now is to buy that Buy that rebuy that soybean oil at 47 25 Put a stop below this one right here. That's 46 25 you've made really good money on this here So you've got some capital to work with so this is a head and shoulders pattern on this So by the time it gets here remember it's a couple days out. That's what you'd want to be watching So let's uh, let's watch that one very very important. I haven't done the wheat yet. The fact is since we're Between us girls right here. Let's get up here. I've got too much to cover I'll do the wheat last. Okay. Let's get back up here To the gold market next because this is the one that we were looking at Last night in the middle of the night. Unfortunately it happened about two in the morning Our time but you'll notice this is what we're going through right now We had a rally here. There was your 382 level right in here We never went above the 50% on this move right here And I was suggesting to the folks that this is most this is not gonna We missed this this missed it by three bucks. So we we could get rid of that Now what we're gonna do is go to the 60 minute so we can see it a little clearer And you'll be able to see where we are. Okay. Here's get this out of the way See we're coming down. We're almost ready to break through to the downside Of this level right here. You see we hit it one two three four times and now we're getting ready to test it again at 2024 Okay Now we know that we have an abcd coming in right about that time. So we're gonna find out Whether it's just going to kiss that line and go lower. Oh 26 It's already hit this just just hit it right now. It's trading at 26 70 so it's made that But this is where I think we're headed is down to this level right here Which is which is the larger abcd. We got to go to the four hour on that just to get it I hope this is answering jeff's question his question. I'll cover it When we come back from the break on how do I go back from looking at different things? And this is how I do I want to if I don't see what I see on the 60 minute I want to see if there's a a bigger picture on the four hour and there it is See here. I'm only looking at this now. I'm looking at uh, you know, three and a half weeks So there's your big abcd to downside 202 200 so right in this area is where you're making multiple abcd. So you want to be a buyer goal there In fact, it's not too not too shabby to be short getting into this thing right here So that's it if you look at this on a, you know, micro short basis You'll see that all we did today get this up here. I watched it here tonight last night. There it was you made the 382 retracement up here. This was about four in the morning Tucson time and then we came down we broke really hard Let's be right back take a break.

I believe we have a big cpi number coming out on friday That's going to probably you know get these uh things to be those to those areas where we think they're going to go Like gold and maybe treasury bonds and maybe stocks are going to go up forever possible Anyway, here's where we are with the crude oil today. This is just a three-minute chart looking at it overnight And there's where we were we dropped two dollars Uh barrel now there's your 382 last night Remember this took several hours to about an hour and a half to form Actually one hour to form but it was right at the 382. It's dropped, uh, you know quite a bit So that's what we know is that if that's the case we'll be looking at an abcd pattern Coming down to this level right here Okay, some people have asked me, you know several people's why don't I get on these shows? For the foundations for the study of cycles and folks. I I only have one trick pony That's what I have and I did you know, it's we're very boring to most people when I was in We went to Los Angeles in 88 and I was you know presenting my book that had been the technical book of the year And uh, and was amazon bestseller was doing really well And uh, but I told the folks that you know, everybody said this was the end of the stock market You know look for a bear market rally and I peter leides was there So was stan harley and we pointed out look that low in the stock market on october the 19th and 20th of 1987 Remember that was just a year of got year or so Less than a year because it was august august august and so that's where it was That was an exact sixth. I'm going to show it to you because I was going to do that anyway So I might as well Get up and take a quick look at it. And I think this is it right here. Yeah Nope, that's the longer. This is the one about the I'm going to cover that too But I want to do this is the one I want to cover That's the wrong one too This one right here. This is it. Okay. This is the stock market folks going back into the 30s. Okay This is the 29 top That was uh, september the third or 1929 the dow gave up 93 percent of its value went from 383 down to 41 In a 1932 three year bear market And then it was the best buying opportunity in the in the history of the world Because it went from there to 38 30 or 40 000 whatever it was But here is the keys that I want to point out to you right here here was the big Bottom right here in the stock market. This was the double bottom. It was october and december of 1974 This is the same type of thing that we're looking at right now only upside down This is a double stellium thing that happened on october of 74 and then december of 75 Which was just a slightly bit higher. Okay All right, this was the crash of 87 right here. All right This was a three a 61 percent retracement from the dow. Okay, and there's what happened There was a the coven thing that ended right here 2018 so all I done is every time I've had these mates look at this three drive to top here This was in january of 68 It went from 68 all the way down into 74 a nine year bear market gave up 40 percent of its value Okay, and this is when I Got wiped out and then I learned a little bit and still learning So that's what we're paying attention to here With that. So I'm just showing you that I'll be keeping it updated because when I'm wrong I'm going to be the first to believe it. I did find this. This is isik newton's tombstone and he's buried in Uh-oh We have a mine warp here the place right there In the middle of the parliament there. I can't remember it's this is isik newton. He was 75 years old He said for every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction. I think he's right just about Uh on that stuff. So we'll see what happens regarding that folks if you remember Einstein they asked him who was Ask him who were the smartest people and he said Pythagoras was by far the smartest human ever to walk The earth he said there was god and there was man And in between was Pythagoras and he said then there was Galileo He said isik newton Who was the third fourth one? I can't remember the fourth one and then uh, then he said of course myself He was number five. Anyway, that's uh, he had not much humility But uh newton did but not so much with that by the way I don't I was when I was going through to do some research on this Did you know that isik newt he worked 18 hours a day seven days a week? He was never married. He was celibate just like he was a priest. He never consummated 20 Hours a day remember this 20 hours a day is what leonardy da Vinci He worked 20 hours a day seven days a week for his whole life And when he left he left a message saying my life has been in vain. I've discovered nothing I've done nothing. I've contributed nothing And so I put a bid in on the 14 paintings that he did for nothing But I haven't heard back from any of the people that have paid the And I had 11 trillion dollars or whatever happens to me. Anyway, these fellas were pretty pretty amazing Edison never had a bed. He slept he worked uh, 18 hours a day and he didn't sleep in a bed He slept in a chair So, you know, this is people that you know, they really consume by some of this stuff So this ain't me. I don't sleep much but not like that. I mean, that's just out of the world Let's get up here Take a quick look at a couple other things that people have asked me about here today One of the I think I've come oh one of the question Jeff asks is how do I go about and determining, you know, which which uh status I want to look at first So I'm looking at a three minute here and I can see that just for one day But the next thing I when I start out I go to a four hour. Okay. There's a four hour chart For the crude oil. All right, so I know this is no longer valid because we went lower than this point right here So now we've come down and we broke now the high that we had here today was setting right at Guess what boys and girls right at the 78 level went a little bit above it And all it's done is it comes down and it's making another bottom just just like it did here Made another bottom to this level right there. There's your 78 level coming in here just a little below 71 even okay, so it's got to hold that because if it doesn't hold that then we're moving to the downside So I go to a 40 minute enough. I want to see something a little clear I'll go to 60 minute, but that pretty much tells me what I want to see anyway because There's the let's just draw the 78 percent level in right This is actually drawing wrong because it made a higher high here. So you have to you have to redraw that and uh So there's where your 78 percent level comes in right here It's going to be important to really watch for several reasons. It's also going to be an expansion there At the old uh 1.618. So there's the zone if we get below this We're going to be looking at a pretty big break in the oil You know down into this level right here and making a double bottom maybe back into uh, january the third So that's what I'm really trying to do um Jeff asked do I have a uh Do I do do specific of random? Do I select certain things like some days I'll send videos out on grain sometimes crude oil Usually always on the s and p in bonds and gold But not not really, but if I see a pattern and especially someone sends me a pattern on the futures Then I'll do that another question that someone asks is why don't I trade stocks? Very simple folks If you trade stocks, you got to do two things. You got to worry about dividends if you're short Second thing is the charging you interest rate on your margin debt, which is uh 50 percent you got to put up 50 percent opposed to 10 or 20 percent in futures Okay, the liquidity is instantaneous in the futures much much easier Okay, you don't have to worry about reports as often. So those are the reasons. I hope that answers Wow into the day is coming fast boys and girls.
