DMHA, the return of the strongest stimulant ever. Hey, what's up guys, it's Josh here today I want to do a little re-review on this DMHA. To be honest, DMHA and DMAA are supplements that I actually really like when I have a long day. I started initially testing out DMAA then I tested out Ampsitrate and this is my final review on DMHA on the second time testing it. DMHA was initially my most recommended bulk stimulant, my probably most impressive bulk stimulant and then if you've been following my channel I came across something called Ampsitrate where I actually feel Ampsitrate was most of this feeling but I felt that it was a little bit shorter lasting. This is supposed to last a very long time I think up to 9 to 11 hours. The Ampsitrate I would see myself getting tired around five to six hours, same amount of feeling but just less a little bit less tax on your body with the Ampsitrate and at the end of this video I will let you know is this supplement still the king? Is this the best supplement ever or is Ampsitrate better? DMHA is the second strongest bulk stimulant that they offer on the website. DMHA and DMAA there's a lot of hearsay about them, sometimes people will say they're super strong, sometimes they'll say they'll take tons of scoops and they won't feel anything. Apparently there's two different types of DMHA, sometimes they could take a lot of the original DMAA and I will feel it, sometimes I won't feel it. There's a lot of confusion with this. There is a big crowd, a lot of people out there who actually prefer the effects of DMHA to DMAA and then there's also a lot of people vice versa but I've pretty much had the most people like the DMHA and I think a few times I did take it under my tongue I just want to say if you do take this under your tongue it does taste really bad and it will be more effective so if you already have a dose of this and you're planning on taking some under the tongue you could probably take a little bit less because it will be very effective. This is one of the reasons that it took me so long to make this video but I took DMHA early on, I forget what it was, not the right dose quite a bit, I could have already felt energy and so I was giving myself too much, I could have already had caffeine whatever. I just felt way too amped on this, I took too much, it just wasn't the right time so I kind of took a little break from it and I was like wow like I'm surprised that I liked the DMAA and then I come to the DMHA and then the DMHA felt too strong when when I tried it before I felt the opposite before I like the DMHA and the DMAA was too strong I was like now the DMHA is too strong like this is just so confusing right I ended up trying this a few more times and I actually really really really do like this stuff guys and it actually is relatively safe let's jump into the pros of this supplement the pros is that it has a very very good balance of energy to euphoria I have felt a little too amped a little bit too anxious on this stuff but that's when I've taken way way too much one time I took like one scoop in my drink and it actually felt like a really refreshing energy drink I was not anxious whatsoever I was not jerry whatsoever it's just a nice little energy boost and then my most recent time I I get a huge gallon of water when I go snowboarding usually by the time of the end of the day I'm almost done with the jug of water so I put I think both times about two scoops of DMHA in my water throughout the day I just felt great and then as soon as I left snow boarding I felt great something about the slow administering of the DMHA I didn't really feel a lot of peaks and valleys but I just was like wow I felt really good you know not amped not too much but I'm like ready to engage ready to talk ready to just do whatever I actually really like DMHA at a somewhat reasonable dose like I probably wouldn't want to go over a scoop and a half at one time and if I were to do two two and a half scoops but one and a big drink taken throughout the day and then the option to have some other water in case it gets too strong the best pro to this one is it has very very exotic energy effects and in my opinion I've had some other bulk stimulants to where sometimes you just feel it pushing your body this one is a little bit more balanced like when you feel it push your body most of time I would get these slight little bits of euphoria so it instead of a feeling like it pushes your body you're just kind of in the zone hard to describe but very very good energy effects if you want to be safe you could have one scoop and it'll probably feel like a mild energy drink and if you want more of an amp feeling you could slightly go up from there I will say that this is probably a little bit safer than DMA as well really don't have too too many cons but the number one is probably gonna be it is very very strong it's not as strong as DMA but it is very strong so if you were to take too much of this or go crazy you're not gonna be feeling good your body is gonna be really taxed really pushed and you're just absolutely not gonna like it so you make sure that you don't take too much of this stuff because it is actually a lot stronger and lasts a lot longer than caffeine isn't as strong as DMA so if you're somebody who likes that or taking any sort of prescription ADD medication anything like that you may want something like the DMA this one isn't gonna have as much of a push per the milligram and then also a DMA a DMA I think is 10 more dollars than this one DMA you get a lot more servings those are pretty much the only cons though it's actually really well priced and a very good value for the energy the taste isn't that bad and you don't need that much like I was saying most of the time you take like for a normal person just trying this one scoop if you're advanced like probably a scoop and a half once you get used to it two scoops but I know with one scoop I don't even taste almost anything because when you have something like tea a cream or like amp citrate they're really really bitter and you clearly can't put them in your drinks so this is just really well rounded most people are part it's gonna want to add this to a drink and it's nice not to have to worry about putting in a pill because it's so bitter things like that so who do I recommend this for is this the best bulk stimulant I'm going back to this is my favorite bulk stimulant once again the only reason it beat out amp citrate is amp citrate it's the only bulk stimulant that I've actually finished a full bag of somebody on my comment section wrote to me hey that's funny because dmha actually gave me less anxiety than amp citrate right so actually really just tried amp citrate recently and I did notice the kind of anxiousness that I was getting a little bit of a too much push that I was getting that I didn't really notice with the dmha the dmha it's kind of get a little bit of I don't want to say euphoria because you're not like off the deep end or anything but you kind of get more in the zone with this you don't really feel like oh wow my heart's beating fast you're kind of just into whatever you're doing with the amp citrate actually did feel that a little bit of an anxious push I really did like the exoticness to this it helped the energy but it was almost less noticeable that you took a stimulant and that's what I wanted and on top of that it lasts longer than amp citrate so it just seemed to be an overall very good product one of the best feeling products plenty of energy another really big pro of this versus amp citrate is the taste for some reason amp citrate just tastes so bad I feel like they all taste about the same but almost every time I mix amp citrate it tastes really really bad this one you could put like I said one scoop and probably like a soda or something you won't taste almost anything I put two scoops in my water I didn't taste anything whatsoever had no other flavorings than it was a gallon but this is my favorite bulk stimulants or my highest recommended one it seems to cover the most bases barely beating out amp citrate it's weird that I kind of had a little bit of affair with amp citrate before and now I've kind of come back to DMHA because you take one scoop you're gonna feel you're gonna have great effects but it's not gonna be crazy you're not probably gonna have a little bit less anxiety than amp citrate and it's just gonna be there in the background just what I wanted DMHA for me again it's going to be the king I end up kind of switching my list around this will probably change in the future but for right now really really like DMHA and I've actually turned one of my buddies on to trying a bunch of these stimulants and we ended up liking the DMHA kind of the best quick little side note when I was giving them stuff I gave my friend three to four scoops of DMAA in the morning and then I gave him three to four scoops of DMAA again in the afternoon and he said he felt kind of tired but I gave him like two two and a half scoops of this and a pill and he said it was just crazy and then I also wrote some people in the bulk stimulants people who actually work for bulk stimulants he said one of his go-tos was DMHA as well so DMHA seems to be a top choice from other people and it's a top choice for me but anyways guys we're on the road of 50,000 subscribers and I couldn't do without aim you guys let's hope you guys are the best I'm having a great day out here hopefully having a great day at home see you all in the next video peace


brothers and sisters in Islam. As-salamu alaykum wa rahmatullahi wa barakatuh. And guess what? Welcome to another episode, specifically episode 24 of your favorite show, hashtag LNT, which is your favorite man, Ahmad Ali. Come into your live. We're going to hold a series of Karbala every night up until the end of Safar, 1030 p.m. Karbala time, discussing a variety of topics ranging from culture to religion to scientific. Basically, we cover every single topic out there. That's why we're so unique. But tonight, we're talking about a topic that has been debated over many decades now and that affects our earth scientifically. What is that topic and how is it going to affect us? We'll find out, but after we check out Westrending. We do welcome everyone joining us tonight. Now, for those who love Google Plus, I don't know who still uses that, but for those who do know about it, we'll check this out. Google said on Monday that it would shut down Google Plus, the company, you know, the long struggling answer to Facebook giant social network. So Google tried to create something similar to Facebook where people can connect to add someone and so on and so forth. But after discover the security vulnerability that exposed the private data of up to 500,000 users, Google did not tell its users about this security breach or the security issue when it was found back in March because it didn't appear to anyone that had gained access to that information. And the company's Privacy Data Protection Office decided it was not legally required to report it. The research giant said in a blog post. Now, we just say that out there because this huge giant called Google is now having a security breach and we see these websites from Facebook to Twitter to Instagram and now Google Plus. The thing is, when was the last time you use Google Plus? I never heard of someone saying, you know what, you add me on Google Plus, you know, and hit that plus button for my picture. I literally never heard someone say that. Maybe I live under a rock, but I never heard anyone. Let's jump into tonight's topic. Once again, we do welcome everyone joining us tonight. Now, I remember and so do you guys. We guys remember back in high school when we discussed global climate change and how the world is changing. No, not falafel, but changing the world and how much the world is changing because of the carbon dioxide in the air that's absorbing the heat of the sun. Now, these were just a few lessons that the teacher in grade 10 gave us. And then later on, we just forget about it. No, there was no importance given to the topic. But yesterday, a report issued by the UN Intergovernmental Panel for Climate Change, the IPCC, demanded governments around the world to take rapid, and I quote, rapid, far-reaching and unprecedented changes in all aspects of society to avoid disastrous levels of global warming. Now, so you can tell this is this is turning into something serious. It's not, you know, lessons from your grade 10 science teacher. Now it's something serious where it might have an impact on our lives. The report also mentioned that our planet will reach 1.5 degrees Celsius above pre-industrial levels as early as 2030, you know, precipitating the risk of extreme droughts, wildfires, floods, food shortages for hundreds of millions of people across the world. Now, the date 2030, which falls within the lifetime of many people living on this planet right now is based on current levels of greenhouse gas emissions. Now, is it something, or is it time to do something about this, or should we just ignore it, or maybe the media right now is focusing on this, maybe just to make a sequel for the 2012 movie, which everyone saw, you know, the end of the world 2012. So maybe it's just a sequel for that movie, or it's something serious, that we need to focus on. That's why hashtag LNT is focusing on that tonight. That's why we chose the question to ask you. Very simple.   All you got to do is just think about it. You know, the amount of gas that we put in the air, is it affecting global warming, and is it affecting the heat of the sun coming into the earth? If you think it is, let us know. If you don't think it is, also let us know at plus 964-774-067-1836. And we're also live on Facebook, so you guys can go check it out there and let us know what you think about tonight's question. I'm excited. I hope everyone is. Let's take a quick break. Come back to you guys very short.  Hope everyone, inshallah, enjoyed that 10 second or 5 second break. But before that, I just enjoyed that a lot. But before the break, we asked the question, should we be concerned about climate change? Should we or should we not?  But, you know, when the crew of Hashtag, Gell and Tee sees an interesting report, sees a report that needs to be discussed in the whole world's talking about it, then we need to analyze it. That's why tonight, we chose to talk about global warming on tonight's episode. Now, climate change is happening. The earth is becoming warmer. No one can deny that. It's happening right now, tomorrow, the day after tomorrow. It's happening. Now scientists have known of the heating potential of, you know, the greenhouse effect of gases such as CO2, carbon dioxide. Since the, since at least 1859, when British physicist John Tyndall first began experiments leading to discovery that CO2, carbon dioxide, in the atmosphere absorbs the sun's heat.  Now, the IPCC, in its first statement back in 1990, stating that emissions resulting from human activities are substantially increasing the atmospheric concentrations of the greenhouse gases, resulting in what? Resulting in an addition warming of the earth's surface. That's why right now in Basra during the summer, they, you know, they bake eggs on the ground because it's so hot. I don't know if the videos are real, but I've seen it and it's crazy. They just put a frying pan on the asphalt and the frying pan gets hot. They put oil and they fry an egg. Subhanallah. If it's true, then that's crazy of how hot the earth is becoming. Even today in Canada, today in Canada, when I was talking to a friend, they say that today is 30 degrees Celsius and yesterday night was zero degrees Celsius. So the climate is going up and down. No one can actually get to know what's going on. But when we have reports that are telling us that the planet will reach the crucial threshold of 1.5 degrees Celsius above pre-industrial levels as early as 2030, that's concerning. We need to look at this further. That's why in the same report it says that the planet is already two thirds of the way there, you know, with global temperatures having warmed up one degrees already. Now avoiding this or avoiding going even higher than that will require significant action in the next few years. Significant action, we'll get to talk about that but I have to read this text message from. Nall from India, yes we should be concerned because global warming affects many things including the way we live absolutely. Nall from India, thank you very much for joining us tonight. Now according to Andrew King, a lecturer in climate science at the University of Melbourne says and I quote that this is concerning because we know there are so many more problems if we exceed 1.5 degrees Celsius global warming, including more heat waves and hot summers, greater sea level rise and for many parts of the world, worst droughts and rainfall extremes. Now we see this now. If you look at the west, there's floods, there's wild fires. If you look at the east, just a few days ago, there was another in Indonesia, there was another tsunami that hit. So if you're looking at the west or the east, both parts are being hit. If you look at the north, Antarctica, then you see the ice melting and they're saying in a few years the ice is going to melt, not in a few but you know in a couple of decades, the ice is going to melt and you see the entire world flooding. However, global net emissions of carbon dioxide would need to fall back 45% from 2010 levels by 2030 reaching net zero around 2050 in order to keep the warming around 1.5 degrees Celsius. Now this all might sound scientific but if you were to read the reports based on this and you were to go watch documentaries, the recent one by CNN or BBC, then you'll see how dangerous it actually is. Now you might ask yourself, who is causing all of this? You know if you were to ask some extreme, it would be like, oh America, America's causing this, America's doing this to kill the bubble chill.  I'm not here to defend anyone but at the same time say something you know that's reasonable. But we go back to the question of asking ourselves who is responsible or who's causing all of this? Well tens of hundreds of thousands of scientists in more than 100 different countries have accumulated an overwhelming amount of evidence pointing to a clear conclusion. What is that conclusion? That conclusion is us. We're the main cause behind global warming. Believe it or not, we'll get to read that. Why? Because simply it's chemistry. Number one, it's chemistry. Let's go through these nine points as to how humans are responsible for global climate change. Number one, simple chemistry. When we burn carbon monoxide minerals, carbon dioxide is emitted. Number two, basic accounting of what we burn and therefore how much CO2 is emitted. So the amount we burn, the amount of carbon dioxide we emit, we generate, we create, the more the heat sun is absorbed into the earth. Now measuring CO2 in the atmosphere and trapped in ice to find that it's increasing and that the levels are higher than anything we've seen in over hundreds of thousands of years ago. Number four, chemical analysis of the atmospheric CO2 that reveals that the increase is coming from burning fossil fuels. So now you're wondering where those oil refineries are and, you know, that big flame coming up, then now you know what's going on. Number five, basic physics that show us that CO2, carbon dioxide, absorbs heat. Number six, monitoring climate conditions to find that recent warming of the earth is correlated and follows rising CO2 emissions. Number seven, ruling out natural factors that can influence climate like the sun and ocean cycles. Number eight, employing computer models to run experiments of natural versus human influenced simulations on earth. Number nine, consensus among scientists who consider all previous lines of evidence and make their own conclusions. Basically, what we can summarize from this, anything that we burn, anything that we use that has carbon dioxide out, we humans, we take an oxygen, we give out carbon dioxide. Believe it or not, even adjacent does that. He takes an oxygen and gives out carbon dioxide. So when we give out carbon dioxide, and at the same time, we have a lot of trees being cut down. Where does that carbon dioxide go if the trees are not taking in carbon dioxide? Where is the carbon dioxide going? It's going to the atmosphere of the earth absorbing the sun's heat, taking it into the earth but won't take it back. So it'll trap it within the earth's atmosphere. But we do a text message from Ali Panchar, or sorry, Ali Panchar, if he's from Pakistan, Ali Panchar, very famous name actually. Panchar, he's the big family. But as you said, global warming has been talked about ever since I can remember. But I do not see anything changing in the world. Thank you very much Ali from Pakistan for joining us tonight. Yes, it has been talked about for many years now. If we were to go back from 18th century and then the IPCC in 1988, so it does go back decades back to see and try to tell us and warn us. On grade 10, we just thought for me personally, I just thought science class was whatever. But when I grew up and grade 11, 12, I actually found it interesting. And when you get to university and so on and so forth. But let's not focus on me but let's go back to global warming. Now there's another question that rises when we've talked about all of this. What happens if we neglect it? Hey, let's just forget about it and skip it, just like what we've done in the previous years. Just like when a 2012 movie came out, everyone was scared, then 2012 came, nothing happened. Is it the same or is it different? Now, some of the long term effects of global climate change are as follows according to the third and fourth national climate assessment report. Now number one, temperatures will continue to rise. Number two, frost free sessions will lengthen, summers, springs, they'll lengthen. Number three, changes in perception patterns. Number four, more droughts and heat waves. We see that. Number five, hurricanes will become stronger and more intense and we see that. We see the floods, we see Florence and we see many more that are occurring both in the east and the west. Number six, sea level rise will rise one to four feet by 2100. So we're in 2018. So do the math. 2018 or just 18 minus 100, what is that? That's 88.  So by the time, I won't even be alive by that time. Maybe I will, you never know, but you know, no, no, you won't. I just think that he's going to live up to know his age. But anyways, what I'm trying to say is that it's a long term run, but we have to also think about our generation on raising them, how to, you know, be more cleaner. Now another one is the Arctic, which looks like it's becoming ice free in the near future as well. Now, what are the ways to stop climate change or to stop global warming from actually happening? What are the ways? Now there are nine simple ways that you can, you know, try to stop, but try to reduce the damage that will happen on Earth. Number one, change a light.  You know, an Arab or anyone brown, they're going to go for that three pack for two dollars. They're not going to go for a six dollar. Every time something happens, if it blows up, you know, I just get, I get nine, if you ask them why are you buying that and not that, they're going to say I buy nine bulbs for the same amount as buying one bulb.  You know, it's first of all, you're actually not spending, you're not using more energy, using less energy than the regular bulbs, and at the same time, they look nice. I mean, look how nice the lighting is, and this is fluorescent. It's not regular lights, but anyways, drive less. Tip number two, drive less. The amount of gas that the car burns, and this goes out to me, I drive a lot.   Number three is very important. Number three is very dangerous at the same time. A lot of people do not recycle. Recycling is so important. You know, the carbon dioxide that comes out of not recycling, and if you do recycle more, you can save two hundred, two thousand and four hundred pounds of carbon dioxide per year, and that's just by, you know, recycling half of your household waste. You're not, you know, you're not recycling all, just half of it. Number four, check your tires.  But actually, when you have your tires at thirty-five PSI, then you're actually not wasting a lot of gas, because the car is not pulling itself, it's easily moving. Number four, or number five actually, use less hot water. The amount of carbon dioxide used to heat up the water is enormous. Five hundred pounds of carbon dioxide you can save by just using less hot water. And number six, avoid products with a lot of packaging.  Number seven, adjust your thermostat. You know, two degrees, you know, putting it down in the winter, and then two degrees up in the summer, you're not going to feel that much different, but at the same time, you're saving about two thousand carbon dioxide per year, two thousand pounds of carbon dioxide a year.  So why don't you do the same? So put out your nafotsopa and use the electronic ones. But another one, plant a tree. If you're living in a government, or sorry, if you're living in a country with a lot of trees, try not to cut as many trees down, or if a tree is brought down try to plant one, and if you have extra space, just plant a tree. It looks nice at the same time it takes in carbon dioxide, and it gives you oxygen. It's good for the environment. Number nine, turn off any electronic devices that you're not using.  Turn it off, save electricity, because by saving electricity, you're saving money, and you're not wasting, and you're not, you know, emitting any carbon dioxide, thousands of pounds of carbon dioxide. But we just got a text message, last for tonight. From who? Fazlath from the UK says, thank you for focusing on such an important topic that is not discussed on other ShiaTV channels. Thank you very much, that's why hashtag identity is unique, but global warming is very important, and we should all work together to help, and thank you very much, Fazlath from the UK for joining us tonight. But lastly, what we can say is that follow these nine tips that we mentioned, and at the same time, think about if, you know, global warming is not going to affect you within what, 12, 13, 14, 50 years, it's, it might affect the next generation. It is affecting us from the amount of diseases and things going on because of how many gases are in the world, or on the atmosphere of the earth, but at the same time, think of the next generation, raise awareness, and we hope that Allah SWT keeps everyone on this planet safe. So should we be concerned? Absolutely, yes we should, but not for another 100 years, so that's a good thing for me and you. But anyways, thank you very much for tuning in. As-salamu alaykum wa rahmatullahi wa barakatuh.


Good afternoon, everyone, and welcome to the Stock Swish Show Market Review. It's about 1.30 on Tuesday, May 27th, and I haven't done a market review for quite a while. It's good to take a break and actually give yourself a couple of days off sometimes around a holiday. Give you a good perspective to come back fresh, relaxed, and ready to go and see things clearly. And so I haven't really been looking at the market in the last few days, although the whole time that the market was coming in here back, gosh, for the last two months or so, I did say the market would make new highs, we're very close to doing that. And a lot of people thought this market topped out, that it did a double top, that the market was extended, that the market was going to pull in, and all kinds of things, but the fact is that I kept calling the market higher. Market could have even come in and retested this area here, it didn't do it. And when this happened here, here this day here, when the market did this, I did not think that we were going to break through this. The market flipped here in this day, I didn't think the market was going to break underneath here. Now as it turns out, the market didn't even get anywhere near there, gapped up then the following Monday, this is a Monday, followed through higher, came in, did a nice pullback. I mean, looking at this now, it's picture perfect, although it really, to a lot of people, this seemed that this was the top. Remember, the market's in an uptrend, all it did was pull in. There was nothing wrong with this pull-in whatsoever. There wasn't really any bearishness here for the long-term trend. There wasn't anything here that changed the overall trend. Actually, if you look at it now, it looks like a very slight pullback. Look at it. Even if you squish it together, you can see it. You can also see the market's not extended, and no one should have shorted this market. And people did, because the market made several lower highs in here and higher highs. I mean, a lower highs and lower lows, the market made several of those pivots in here. And so people started shorting this market, that combined with the double talk, but the market should never have been shorter, the market was in an uptrend. And you don't pick tops, just like you don't pick bottoms. So the market is acting extremely bullish today. And extremely bullish the last few days of last week. And when I saw the gap up in the market this morning, I said, geez Louise, market on low volume around a holiday traded extremely bullishly on low volume. We still have low volume in the market today, by the way. This is low volume for the market. And it's a day after holiday today. So not everybody's backing in the group and trading. But the fact that the market did all of this in a holiday week, and that gaped up this morning, the day after a holiday, I can't tell you how bullish this is. This is very bullish, very bullish. Not just because it did it, but there's a gap up every day on low volume. And the markets continue to be higher on low volume. And holding, I mind you, I mean even on top of that. So market gapped up here, market gapped up here, market gapped up here, okay? We're over everything we need to be over now. And so what's the next step? Well, target today is 91 if the water rocket wants to break out, which would have to happen basically between two and three o'clock. And very well could happen. You can almost buy the market here in a breakout play into the next number, which is 91 or 91.30, so something into the close today. So the market's either gonna close like this, or something similar to it. Or break out and continue higher here into the afternoon. Anywhere between now and three o'clock, you can do it. So, and earlier it happens, a bigger move is gonna be. You know, which means you could actually get over the high. But the market's setting up so bullishly here. And even this morning, I called the market long in here, but I said this is aggressive. Because I wasn't necessarily expecting the market to have this kind of large move immediately out of the gate today, and yet it did. I thought we might commit first and hold before we rally. I thought the body of today would be smaller than it is. I said small to medium size, this actually is medium sized, but it never really went red. I thought we're gonna go red a little first and then hold. We actually just held. Again, a very big sign of bullishness listed a nice gap in here. And a great show of strength for the market. So when I saw this though, the way that was breaking out, when I called it as a breakout play before it broke out over the high, it was back here right between 940, 945-ish. The one thing I was noticing when I saw this is gonna break out in here, was that shorts are gonna give it up that did short of this market. And that's what's gonna hold this market and keep pushing it higher here now. And again, it just was never a short, never, never, never short. I remember doing a webinar, gosh, I think it was in March. Yeah, I think it was the end of March, somewhere in here, I did a webinar. And I remember saying the market's higher, the market's higher, the market's higher. I remember talking about it and then the market came in deeper. But the timing of these, you never know where the market's gonna pull in. That's why you have to make sure that you play the trends right and actually play gaps correctly, because gaps will tell you what to do and denote what to do. And so, shorts are gonna get pushed through this that will have to exit their short positions here, which will hold the market and make it go even higher. Plus the fact that the market's getting bought, this wouldn't be happening in any ways. And the market's getting bought in the bullish gap ups. Beautiful show of strength in the market. Nice little scoop that the market's making in here on the eight and the 20 and the 50 pre-moving average and just holding beautifully. And look at this 200 pre-moving average here, pointing sky high. Beautiful, beautiful market. So where do we go from here? One of two things is gonna happen. It depends how we close today and also how we get tomorrow morning. Markets are gonna retest this area up here, knock it over it, in which case people will short this even more, which is the wrong thing to do. But market will retest up here, knock it over it immediately, and then squiggle around a bit, and eventually we will get over it. Or market will just run right on through it. So it's one of those things. I actually think that happens this week. So this week, well, it's a short week. We still have three more days left in the week. I think the market retest this area. This week it either blows right on through it, or retest it. Doesn't get over it immediately, squiggles around, and then eventually gets over it. The market will make a new high soon, sooner rather than later. And even if it retest it and squiggles around, I don't think the retest is gonna last that long before it breaks over it. Cuz this is just too much strength. And I would be surprised if we just blew right over it. So it's one of these things where if you're looking to make money in the market, you have to understand how to retrends. You have to understand how to take positions, and you have to understand how to look at these things to read the overall timeline of it. The great thing about being day trader is that I can make decisions in the live moment, what to do, reading the price, seeing what it is, and making the decision right there, and doing it. But even if you're a swing trader or a court trader, if you see the market doing something, you can make a decision in lifetime what to do. You can take a trade on and you can take a trade off during the day. But what happens is that many people take bad trades and they do them in overnights, and then they get caught in a bad trade in a gap. Gaps that I play intraday on the day is day trades. So it's very important to understand how to read gaps for so many reasons, particularly to understand the overall trend and what's going on in the market or a stock. And one of the reasons I'm so successful, what I do is because I'm very, very good at reading trends in stocks. And that's one of the reasons I'm good at reading trends in the market. And while I was able to predict that the market would do this and something so much more yet this year, that I knew the market was going to eventually break over this double top and get over the high. And I was talking about it all in here. Just took a little while, but still doing it. And I did make note in some video I did a while ago that all of these strong stocks that pulled in with the market are magnificent opportunities for buys. And some of them are setting up beautifully in the last few days. And still plenty of time to take them as core longs or swing trade longs. If that's what you like to do, if that's what you know how to do to go long in the strong stocks that are in the market. This is Melissa with the stockswush.com. If you'd like more information on how to read charts and how to read price action, email me at Melissa at the stockswush.com. I'm doing the next golden gap class on June 7th and 8th. This is the last month that I will be doing the class at the current price.

Greetings and welcome to the Introduction to Astronomy. In this lecture, we are going to look at the deaths of high mass stars, which end their lives as supernovae. So we'll look at what supernovae occur, and how that process may go about happening. So let's remind ourselves of what happens in a high mass star. In a high mass star, fusion continues until iron builds up in the core. That is the end of fusion. No energy can be gained by fusing iron. So we build up something like this. Here is the supergiant star, tremendous in size, and zooming into just a little tiny dot of a core there, we would have all these different layers. Hydrogen, which would be most of the layer going outward and would consist of most of the star. We'd have a helium layer, where helium had been fused from the hydrogen. We'd have carbon and neon and oxygen and silicon and sulfur, and then finally iron down there at the core. Now once you build up that iron, you're done, because it takes energy to fuse iron. So what happens? The core continues to compress, and we have material raining down on the core from fusion in the shells above it, so that iron core gets more and more massive, it gets more compressed. Eventually the mass increases so much that it exceeds the value that the electron degeneracy is able to hold. Those electrons become pushed into the nucleus of the star. If you push an electron into the nucleus of a star, it will merge with a proton and become a neutron. So now we will have a new form of pressure that will hold it up. It will be similar to what we had with the electrons, where no two electrons could exist in the same state at the same time, but now we will have the same thing with neutrons. The new pressure of the neutrons, and them not being able to exist in simultaneous states, will then keep the core from collapsing. It will provide a pressure. However, we've gotten rid of all the space between the atoms now, so this object will be more the size of a city than the size of a planet like a white dwarf. Now the supernova explosion itself, this really happens very fast. It quickly collapses from something the size of Earth to something the size of a city. Now we have degeneracy pressure of neutrons to support the core and keep it from further collapse, and it becomes what we call a neutron star. Once it does, it becomes incredibly stiff and solid, and this material is still raining down in on it, that material will then strike the neutron core and rebound, and we believe a shockwave will then move out through the star and disrupt the outer layers and expel them out into space. Now exactly how this works is a good question, because in many models the shockwave kind of fizzles out before it actually disrupts the star. So we still have work to do on these models, but this is the thought as to how it would go about happening. And this is an example of what we call a type 2 supernova explosion. We will look at type 1 supernovae later on. So what is the ultimate fate of a star? Well it really depends on the mass, the mass of the object, depending on this object it forms. If it's a very small object, less than one one hundredth the mass of the sun, we call it a planet. Between one one hundredth and eight one hundredths we have a brown dwarf star, not quite enough to fuse. Now the other ones, these stars between point zero eight and eight solar masses will all become white dwarf stars. Now note that the very small mass ones it's all helium, the intermediate mass ones are carbon and oxygen, that's where our sun will be, and the higher mass ones will add neon and magnesium. For the higher mass stars between ten and forty solar masses that's where we start to get a supernova.  So depending on the mass that we have, it tells us what the end state of that star may be. Now what is the effect of a supernova? Well supernovae are good at creating heavier elements. In fact that's where many of the heavy elements occur. And many of the elements in our bodies are created in supernovae and are then expelled back into the interstellar medium in that explosion. So that enriches the heavy elements that then help form the next generation of stars. However supernovae are a tremendous amount of energy. A supernova emits more energy there than the sun would do in its lifetime. So it is a tremendous amount of energy that is being produced. Now how dangerous could this be? Well within 50 light years of a supernova to occur within 50 light years of Earth, it could wipe out life on Earth. That's how much energy, even at that distance, 50 light years away, it could wipe out life. And within 100 light years we could have mass extinctions due to the increased radiation levels. Fortunately there are no stars that could go supernova this close to Earth. But that doesn't mean that a supernova in the past did not actually lead to some of the extinctions that have happened over Earth's history. Now what about supernovae? What do we see when we see a supernova? Well, let's look at what we see left behind. We see supernova remnant, and here are some historical supernovae. There is the supernova of 1006. And this is recorded in multiple locations. And we can see the remnant visible expanding outward for now over a thousand years in the constellation Lupus. So we see the material continues to expand outward in space. So this is what is going to eventually be enriching the interstellar medium that material is enriched. It doesn't mean it's not mostly hydrogen and helium still, but it is enriched in heavier elements which will eventually become seed material for future stars. We also have one of the more famous supernovae is the Crab Nebula. That's the famous remnant. This was seen to explode in 1054 on Earth. And nearly a thousand years ago was seen to explode and has been expanding outward for all that time. At the center there is a compact rotating neutron star. Now we'll look at those in more detail later. But that is the remnant core of the star that existed at this location before the supernova exploded. But astronomers did note this, and it was recorded that at this location in that year that a new star appeared that was so bright that it was visible during the day. And that's how bright a supernova can be. And these are even things that we're talking that are still quite a distance away. These are nowhere near close enough to be dangerous to life on Earth. Now we've also had other supernovae more recently in the late 15 and early 1600s. We had Tycho supernova, Kepler supernova, where they each had observed a supernova. This was the last one observed in our galaxy was in 1604. No supernova has been observed in our galaxy since the telescope was invented. So that's just a few years before the telescope was invented. We have not had a supernova visible in our galaxy. That doesn't mean there haven't been supernovae, but there has not been one in our galaxy to be able to study since the telescope was invented. And that makes it difficult because you want to be able to study it as close as you can where it's still safe. So you want to be able to have had a star that was well studied and well known where you had a lot of data going back to be able to understand what happened and how it became a supernova so we can improve our models. In all but one case, we do not know what the star looked like before the star exploded in the last few hundred years. That one case is the supernova known as 1987A. Now this is the naming convention for supernovae. It starts off with the year and then the letters through the alphabet and then they go to lower case letters and double up the letters depending on how many you find. But that supernova 1987A means the first supernova discovered in the year 1987. This is the nearest one to have occurred since the invention of the telescope. So it was discovered in February of 1987 in the Large Magellanic Cloud. Now that is a satellite galaxy of our own Milky Way. It is the first time the progenitor star, the previous star, had been seen and catalogued and studied. Now this is interesting because the progenitor star was a blue supergiant. These are not the ones that we expected to supernovae. We expected it would be a red supergiant. So again we're already starting to learn something else from our models but here we see that material starting to expand outward. Here it's only been expanding out for a few decades but later on eventually it'll form a nice supernova remnant much as we see in the other ones today. When we continue monitoring we see lots of supernovae in other galaxies but again we have not seen one nearby since the advent of a telescope. 1987A is the most important one because it gives us some extra information about the supernova. So let's go ahead and finish up with our summary and what we've looked at is that electron degeneracy cannot support the core of a high mass star that is more than 1.4 solar masses. A neutron star will be formed in that collapse while the outer layers are expelled in a massive explosion that we call a supernova. A number of supernovae have occurred in the last millennium but none in our own galaxy since the invention of the telescope. So that concludes this lecture on supernovae. We'll be back again next time for another topic in astronomy. So until then, have a great day everyone and I will see you in class.


afternoon everybody thank you for being here today I just want to announce that I'm taking the additional step in our commonwealth wide fight against heroin and opioid abuse against the epidemic to further combat this crisis today I'm issuing a statewide disaster declaration for the heroin and opioid epidemic and officially I am declaring this public health crisis a statewide disaster emergency I don't take this action lightly we know that this crisis has taken far too many lives it has broken far too many families it is decimated far too many communities and it has gone on far too long according to the Center for Disease Control Pennsylvania now has the fourth highest overdose rate in the country in 2016 we lost over 4,600 Pennsylvanians to this disease and according to provisional data we lost an additional 5,260 Pennsylvanians in 2017 those that we have lost are not just numbers their mothers their fathers sons daughters family members neighbors all of them contributing members of our society they're people whose parents and grandparents I have sat with and heard how devastating this disease is for all of them we mourn their losses and we try to empathize with the pain most of us cannot even begin to imagine but as we do we understand we also have to act quickly and decisively to make sure that those numbers don't continue to grow so this disaster declaration while it's not a silver bullet will open additional avenues for the state to fight back against this public health crisis so that no longer will families have to suffer these kinds of unimaginable losses the opening of the opioid operational command center the command center housed with Pima you'll be hearing from director Rick Flynn in a minute within Pima that will track and monitor our progress this center is part of this decade declaration the center will include staff from the departments of health human services drug and alcohol programs aging state corrections the state police Pennsylvania emergency management agency Pima and the Pennsylvania Commission on crime and delinquency PCC D that's nine agencies will be working together through this center that center will be tasked with providing updates on our progress throughout the declaration's duration which is 90 days by the Constitution additional projects to be undertaken under this declaration include allowing EMS providers to leave behind naloxone with users of opioids who lawfully possess the drugs for their own use or someone else's use who lives in the in their home it will allow for pharmacists to partner with other organizations to increase access to look to naloxone this declaration will expand access to the prescription drug monitoring program to other commonwealth departments for clinical decision-making purposes will include the rescheduling of fentanyl derivatives to align with D. E. A. schedules will add overdoses and neonatal abstinence syndrome as reportable conditions will waive the face-to-face requirement for physicians to intake patients into the narcotic treatment programs that are all over the state will authorize the emergency procurement of a long-term contract for D. D. for D depths department of drug and alcohol programs get help now hotline which helps connect individuals in need and their families with the resources they need for help will expand access to medication assisted treatment for satellite narcotic treatment programs it will waive annual licensing requirements for high performing drug and alcohol treatment facilities will move from annual relicensing to biannual uh... every two years so it'll streamline the purchasing of the body scanner to be used on re-entrance at warnersville where we have seen a very high incidence of abuse and overdose it will waive fees for birth certificates for individuals with opioid use disorders allowing them quicker access to treatment and benefits and it will waive separate licensing requirements for hospitals to expand access to drug and alcohol treatment programs while the scope of this declaration is broad and while it affects programs and entities across the commonwealth it is imperative that we use every tool to try to contain and eradicate this public health crisis i have pledged to do everything in my power to stop this scourge and to protect the families and communities of pennsylvania that are suffering because we know that this crisis does not discriminate it hits every age level every creed color and income level it hits rural and urban areas it hits all regions of the state northwest east and south this declaration follows through on the promise that i've made and recognizes the seriousness of the issue that we're all facing and this declaration is the latest it's the latest in a series of steps that my administration in partnership with the legislature this is a bipartisan issue has already taken in the last two and a half years just to review we have taken aggressive steps right here in harrisburg republicans and democrats in the senate and the house to tackle the heroin and opioid uh... abuse epidemic we've done a number of things first we've redesigned the prescription drug monitoring program second we've expanded and work to protect medicaid we now have one hundred and twenty five thousand people providers get reimbursement for treatment for substance use disorder we've provided funding all of us here in this building for forty five centers of excellence for treatment centers we've created the drug take back program that allows people to get rid of unwanted prescription drugs we have one of those at least one in every county in pennsylvania we've made the opioid reversal antidote naloxone available to all pennsylvania through a standing order signed by physician general now acting secretary of health rachel levin we've created ten sets of prescribing guidelines to assist health care professionals to deliver the best most appropriate care to individuals with substance use disorder we've done we've worked with pennsylvania's medical schools to create new curricula we've created a toll-free helpline to connect individuals seeking treatment for themselves or a loved one we've limited the number of opioids that can be prescribed to a minor or to anybody in an emergency room we've expanded access to naloxone by providing funds to first responders and law enforcement officials that will help them keep their supplies up and we've provided two million dollars to expand specially drug courts throughout pennsylvania so while these steps have been significant we've been working on this for some time we've made significant progress we all know that we have more to do the sheer number of overdoses and deaths show that we need to do a lot more and the stories that pour in all too frequently and all too tragically from every corner of the commonwealth show that we need to do more the need this need is what this disaster declaration is about we cannot stand by we cannot stand on what we've done as long as this disaster this disease continues to ravage our lives our communities our families we cannot stand by we cannot fail to act in face of this crisis we cannot allow more families suffer the tragedies that they've suffered already the numbers again are staggering the impact is devastating we cannot allow it to continue throughout the duration of this declaration we will continue to analyze review and change our response based on what we find what comes out of this this declaration because we need to find solutions that work we've all heard the horror stories the woman who's been through eight treatment facilities by the time she's twenty she continues to struggle the dad who broke down in tears begging me for help for his daughter the police officer who arrived on a scene to find his only only minutes late to save somebody's life or the grandmother who's raising her grandchildren because they've lost both parents to the disease these stories are horrific they're far far too common so we're here today to put a stop to them and deliver help to those who need it so that we can stop this loss and rebuild our communities i want to thank all the agencies for their work as well as the partners in the general assembly for their dedication to finding real solutions to beat this epidemic today is about pushing forward about using all the possible tools we have today is about the families of pennsylvania who is suffering today is about getting them the help they need now i want to turn this over to the director of the pennsylvania emergency management agency rick flay thank you governor and i will tell you on behalf of people were honored to be part of this very very critical and important issue it is a disaster and every single day pima is organized and trained to be able to coordinate and coordinate and collaborate among the state agencies to provide assistance to disaster survivors and uh... so we've been asked and tasked to help do that where the health department is primarily the lead agency and so our role was really focused in on doing the things we normally do in any disaster whether it's gathering information from a situation awareness perspective working with state agencies identifying problems and working with them on what they have the ability to provide the resources to solve those problems from the commonwealth response coordination center and that's what we call it because it's not a state emergency operation center because we don't command we coordinate uh... we're actually is going to as the governor mentioned bring in not only the state agencies he mentioned but it's a whole government and whole community approach to disaster response and so with the state agencies in the in the department and the de-adapt folks that have been engaged with we're going to be coordinating that those efforts uh... the again the we operate under the national incident management system the national incident management system is a fundamentally a structure that helps coordinate has language that that everyone understands and sets in a system up incident command where there's a function of leadership and breaking out of branches and divisions to be able to identify and how to solve problems we're going to be implementing that that's what we do and uh... i'm i'm proud to be part of this effort so again under the uh... direction of governor wolf we are very proud to be part of this process and will work very closely with the state agencies involved to be able to not only do what we need to do in the ninety day period but help set the framework for a future of dealing with a serious serious crisis i'd like to introduce uh... apologize i'd like to introduce secretary the department of uh... uh... uh... drug and alcohol program uh... miss uh... jennifer smith thank you director flinn uh... and thank you governor uh... i have not met a person in state government who takes this epidemic more seriously than our governor every meeting every staff meeting every press event he takes the opportunity to talk about this epidemic and so i i give a great amount of thanks to him for the tremendous effort that he takes in leading all of us as cabinet members in addressing this epidemic it's not just about my agency as the department of drug and alcohol programs it's about every agency in the commonwealth truly in all hands-on approach and i think what this declaration does is allows us to bring even more energy and more drive behind all of those initiatives so the governor mentioned some of the things that we're going to be doing as part of this declaration uh... one of the things is extending the hotline that he mentioned so back in november of twenty sixteen our department work to stand up a hotline one eight hundred six six two help it's a hotline geared at uh... connecting individuals with resources and providing direct referrals into treatment since the go live of that hotline they have taken over twenty thousand phone calls twenty thousand phone calls this declaration will enable us to ensure that there's no disruption to that service another thing that this declaration will enable us to do is look at our regulations and look at ways we can reduce burdens on our treatment providers allowing them to cut back on the paperwork required and instead to vote those hours to the patients who so desperately need treatment some other regulations will be looking at our ways in which we can ensure patients are brought into treatment facilities more quickly so we're taking a look at the intake there are some regulations that require a face-to-face physician examination as part of the intake process physicians aren't always accessible there are hot commodity in the drug and alcohol world so sometimes that could delay intake to a facility by hours or even days that's not acceptable this declaration will enable us to allow other individuals in the treatment facility such as certified registered nurse practitioners and physicians assistants to perform that face-to-face evaluation rather than waiting for a physician so those are just some examples of ways we're looking at our regulations and ways to better treat individuals and get them access to that treatment much more quickly so again I thank the governor and I thank all of my cabinet members and I really look forward to the collaboration and the energy that this declaration can bring to the epidemic and now I'd like to call to the podium my friend and colleague Dr. Rachel Levine the acting secretary for the Department of Health and Physician General thank you Secretary Smith good afternoon I also would like to thank Governor Wolf for this really unprecedented action to the best of our knowledge at the Department of Health a Pennsylvania governor has never used a disaster proclamation such as this for a public health emergency and it's very significant because all working together we can allow more resources to be able to help Pennsylvanian suffering from opioid use disorder I think it's critical to emphasize that addiction and opioid use disorder are medical conditions they are diseases they are not a moral failing in this disease in Pennsylvania has reached this epidemic proportion it is a public health emergency it is the worst public health crisis that we have faced in Pennsylvania and you could argue in the nation in a more than a generation the Department of Health is really honored to be fully participating in this effort and in the opioid operations command center will be providing staff will be providing resources and are very pleased to be participating in collaborating with all of our sister agencies in public health as well as in law enforcement and public safety on this effort you had mentioned the prescription drug monitoring program the prescription drug monitoring program which is approximately a year and a half old started in august of two thousand and sixteen is a critical tool in our effort it is part of the opioid stewardship effort that we have in terms of preventing people from becoming addicted to these medicines and monitoring them and we will utilize that in the command center the prescription drug monitoring program has decreased opioid prescriptions by almost twelve percent from september two thousand sixteen to september two thousand seventeen through this effort will be increasing our data sharing with all of our sister agencies so they can use that data to help them in their efforts to combat this crisis this declaration also gives first responders ems agencies another tool in terms of saving lives using the standing order that i signed in two thousand and fifteen first responders such as ems have been able to use naloxone to save someone suffering an overdose using this life-saving medicine police departments have saved over five thousand seven hundred lives in approximately the last three years using naloxone but sometimes those lives are still at risk now we want patients who are resuscitated and revived with naloxone to go to the emergency department because then we want to link them with treatment but at times they don't and first responders have been asking us ems has been asking the department of health for the ability to then leave behind a kit of naloxone to save their will have their friends and family save their life if they might overdose again and so this time if a patient does refuse to go to the emergency department the responders will be able to leave behind a kit of naloxone in case they might suffer another overdose now we know that naloxone is absolutely essential it's absolutely essential you cannot access treatment and get into recovery if you're dead however it is not sufficient and so uh... through this effort of the command center will be continuing our warm handoff efforts we're going to be having a series of warm handoff regional convenings to work with the the single county authorities regulated by the department of drug and alcohol programs as well as emergency departments health and hospital systems treatment providers uh... as well as ems and corners to try to get people into treatment but they have to be able to be alive to get into treatment so to close to all the families that are suffering from this disease during this epidemic during this crisis it's it's important to remember and first always to emphasize that treatment works recovery is possible and so under the governor's leadership who is committed to addressing this crisis we all in the administration have to give hope hope to the patients suffering from the disease of addiction hope to their families that are suffering right along with them hope to our communities and hope to our commonwealth you know i'm going to sign the declaration that i'll come back here and i'll any of us will take uh... questions uh... so let me sign the declaration


Broad afternoon, folks. The Ides of July, July 15th. Ted Ralson here in Honolulu at our Think Tech studio hosting the show where the drone leads, where we try to bring to our our public information about the emerging domain of droneism. There's so many different changes happening every week and recent rules released by the FAA interpretations prior to that and such that we need to continually use this opportunity to bring to you information about what is happening in that world so you can be part of it and you can observe the the safe and correct growth of that particular segment of our future business here in Hawaii. That's a long-winded introduction. I'd like to welcome on our show today Leonard Lagan who's been on the show before. Leonard is actually in New Mexico right now.  Leonard you've been doing UAV and drone work for a long time and also manned aircraft work.  Every aspect of droneism is present in Leonard's past experience. It's the the old man in the mountain is what you're describing. The old man of the UAV mountain. Well, you're all old men here unfortunately on the show. Actually we had some really young kids on the show. I got white hair. They all have black hair a couple of weeks ago. So there is an interest in the younger generation Leonard to come in and in fact part of our job I think collectively is to lay a path forward that they can follow into and then make better from what we've been working in the past. Anyway, Leonard I think you're on our show back in maybe a year or so ago when you were up at the University of Alaska associated with the Alaska State Test Site. So we're overdoing getting you back on Leonard and thanks for coming on. I appreciate it. Thank you very much Ted. Okay you're right now in New Mexico no longer Alaska. Well I'm sitting in New Mexico but presently I work for NASA.  That no NASA Ames out of the Silicon Valley Bay Area. And that is a really interesting perspective that you would then bring because we've had so many recent issues of rules, interpretation of rules and now very close to getting some rules finalized and it would be really interesting for me and I think our folks here in the Hawaii Test Site to understand and and see how you at the NASA level observe and then deal with these multiple changes in interpretation of rules coming forth. In fact let's talk. Well I'm going to tread carefully there because I can't speak for NASA. Remember I'm a contract that works for NASA and they have their own approach to how they're going to observe these new rules that come out. I can only speak to my own experience when I address these matters with you. That's great I think we wouldn't ask you to do any more than that but I but the point is that these there are a lot of changes a lot of new information coming out and it's very difficult for us in the game to pay attention to it and to be common in terms of our understanding and interpretation. Just think of the public out there think of the people in the educational system think in the the law enforcement people who are obligated to keep these operating safely the humanitarian people environmental people who use these systems just think how hard it must be for them to keep track of all these recent changes. Anyway that's my ad lib to introduce you to add some thoughts of that matter. Well honestly I'd say that they've got a pretty simple and straightforward pathway right now provided they want to keep things a simple load of the ground line of sight they just want to do you know as you mentioned earlier I'm part of the the original old generation kind of helped some of the foundation for what exists they now so when you talk about how hard it is or how hard it was certainly it was hard in the beginning I've been you know my first thought that I wrote was in 1993 and when there was one guy at the FDA and then we evolved from there and I've probably written 250 300 colors since then but the reason I'm telling you that is that there is a can you hear me right we got a lot of clear sound offers this feedback we should tell the audience that two old guys you're trying to make Skype work earlier this afternoon and it finally worked with the help of young Zuri in the office here carry on Leonard you were good we get the feedback oh we're okay okay I wanted to hear me now yep okay yeah what I was saying you know lay in the foundation didn't take a lot of work like you said it's that's old guys that were there slinging the mud walking through the tall grass when there was no trail we were cutting gladly that's what I've dedicated my life to and it's guys like me and guys like us in the industry that have knocked down and fell to a lot of trees that now make up these regulations rules that the FAA has been able to hand out and so I've really been glad happy to do it's been the love of my life I used to think when I was in the Army 24 years in the army I used to think that was love my life all I got involved in aircraft that was back in 1993 and I found that I had a whole new love of life once I got into the field so this is what I do a passion that's fantastic Leonard and the what you're observing is that the the arc that you generated and that you made possible has been converted now into practice is what what we're seeing in the regulations of the FAR FAR 107 that has come out recently so you can see a lot of your efforts that are buried in the way the rules are interpreted in the way the rules are written absolute I see a great deal of the data that we collected early on is now part of everyday language the regulations so I'm really not only fast the fact that I've actually helped write some of the pages history of this but just that I'm able to look at a legacy and when I see a kid flying a UAV do I walk up and say hey I helped you with that thing airborne I would never do but I look at my wife and we smirk at each other and smile and we say you know you know we helped lay the foundation for this road and that's great and it's also in some weeks to some extent helping the whole progression into STEM and the science technology engineering and math aspects that are defining the future of in our in our cyber oriented and IT oriented world in the sense that these UAS systems are much more IT or cyber dependent than our aircraft that we're familiar with in the past and that we have the ground station you got the communications loop and you got the unmanned air vehicle itself all part of the system and how that all relates to the larger air traffic system is really a sort of a cyber issue and the fact that we've been able to get legislation and laws on the table that that allow that kind of a complex a complex interactive system dynamic system to operate is is really a testimony to the work that's been done by you and others in the past yet sounds almost as if you're speaking about the unmanned traffic management program that NASA's heading which really resides inside the air traffic management system or ultimately will reside within and as part of the unmanned or the air traffic management system and let's talk about that a little bit can you are you are you free to say anything about the status and progress being made in the unmanned traffic management system only that NASA has been some fantastic work got a lot of good partners of where I help them to see a lot of the technologies along and we expect to keep doing great work as well good and the air traffic management system of the UTM system program that NASA has generated is is basically dealing with safety by segregation wouldn't you say that is is defining a an operating channel in the airspace that the UAV is allowed to use based on prior agreements and based on well I'm not going to say that that is what it's all the goal is going to be and and honestly I don't think anybody really knows what UTM is going to like in the end and now you got me treading in some dangerous waters here because you're asking me to speak on what NASA's policy precedents are but the bottom line is air traffic management is what controls the airspace UTM is a model that will be infused into ATM once it is finished okay and then how does how do you think that UTM when it is finished in whatever configuration that ends up how will the effort the far federal elevation regulation 107 rule set play in with the unmanned traffic management system well 107 I hope is a living document as as time goes on this technology gets better as people get smarter and more responsible and we figure out the ins and outs of not only what 107 brings us today but what it has the technical to bring us later on will evolve regulations and with that the technology supports the airspace going to involve as well so I guess that interpreting that one of the aspects of 107 is it in the various levels of regulated airspace you require an air traffic management clearance in order to operate the UAV in that airspace and perhaps the unmanned traffic management program will fit with 107 in that way in that the aspects of 107 that allow operational channel to exist would be the means by which air traffic control provides that clearance for you to operate well perhaps it will be addressed by 107 but I don't know that for a fact you know I think you're right about 107 being a growing document I mean there's so many things that aren't defined for it yet and they I guess they'll be defined when August 29th when it when it becomes formal but there's going to be all the training associated with that people have to get unmanned air aircraft licenses through training and through testing so there's a there's a lot of evolution yet of the specifics of the ins and outs of what's going to make 107 work yeah the one thing that I will tell you is never put the calendar date on what the FAA is going to give us I've learned that I learned that 15 years ago and I'm still learning that today what I will tell you is that hopefully 107 in a living document take the lessons learned from each point in time and each whether it's a mistake or whether it's a success and put it to paper into the 107 you know and I've learned that even even in this narrow in this relatively recent time period of the last couple of years when these free free free exemptions were out that a lot of the experience that was gathered by the industry and by operators under the free free free exemptions have led to some of the policy aspects that are embedded in 107 so there is that that continual learning process and that continually taking the right answers the right approaches forward and and canceling the past that aren't productive that is part of that living document you're thinking of that would characterize the future 107 and some of it's going to have to be lessons learned that we learn out of mistakes others are going to be lessons that we pick up automatically one thing that I like is I think about configuration control when I think about software and I think about cyber systems IT systems configuration is something that says that if I buy a computer that can do X Y or Z that's really all I do but with the UAV one of the things that you've got to be aware of is guys are buying these things and then they're going out payloads on them never designed things or put weights on them were never designed they're buying different types of batteries and adding to the configuration so while the regulation stands out there and says go ahead and register this UAV as a let's call it DJI Phantom 4 is that really what it is once you've configured that thing and you've put a gun on it you've put a drop device on it or you've changed the software you have upgrades to software from the company is it still the same configuration that you register when you register that UAV for the first time we're this show is now under two segments not three like when you're on last time we'll take our first break here in a minute but I but I let's come back to that very issue the issue of the ethics of configuration control configuration management and ultimately in ethics of design that almost leads to TSOs and other kind of standards which is intriguing yeah let's talk about that letter we get back from our first break okay hi I'm Donna Blanchard I'm the host of center stage which is on Wednesdays at 2 o'clock here on think tech on center stage I talk with artists about not only what they do and how they do it but the meat of the conversation for me is why they do it why we go through this a lot of us are not making our livings doing this and a lot of us would do this with our last dying breath if we had that choice and that's what I love to talk to people about I hope you enjoy watching it and I hope you get inspired because there's an artist inside G2 join us on center stage at 2 o'clock on Wednesdays bye Aloha I'm Richard Emory host of condo insider a weekly Thursday show at 3 o'clock it goes all summer long talking about issues living in a condo association each week we bring experts to talk about the rights and obligations of owners and boards of directors to successfully run their condominium it's a great educational show answers a lot of questions we hope you'll visit us sometime Aloha Friday afternoon folks the eyes of July again second half of our program where the drone leads on think-tack away Ted Ralston in the studio downtown and we're joined by Leonard Lagone who is in New Mexico and Leonard is a several several times flyer on this show Leonard welcome back to our show and thanks a lot for providing your insight to us on where the drone business is all going of course okay great we'll have you get by the way back to we ought to get you out here live in fact when the whole when they say the whole UAS test site starts getting active and getting alive we probably need someone like you out here just to keep us straight and narrow for a while we'll talk about that maybe on a theater show but what we're talking about just before the break is the the sense that you've got I certainly have as well that we're running in a kind of an unregulated running a form of regulation in an unregulated domain that is the the definition of drones and what is a drone and what the what's what the drawing number that defines the drone all that is a bit in jello right now in terms of where we're going with the even federal one oh seven consider a few instead you know the FAA has got an awesome responsibility protecting the national airspace system and all of the certainly the man that are using it all passengers sitting on those man and their responsibility is phenomenally almost impossible some would say but but they do a great job now what's going on is that commercial industry that has stepped in and said that we want to play with these things too and we've got a job with these things and I get that I mean I stand mine figuring out what commercial apps are to make these things a little work for John Q. but you know that Congress said step up and basically they had to slap the FAA and say you guys aren't doing fast enough not enough for us our constituents are standing behind us telling us they want something and by golly you can't get to us now so consequently administrator where obviously he had to almost sign his name in blood to make promises that he would put something out now what God is we've great start one oh seven good comprehensive document that gets us halfway where a lot of the commercial business industry want to be not all the way certainly you know they want to be up beyond visual systems and they want to rise and they would surrogate satellites and we still got a way to get there but as I said they had an awesome responsibility and then when Congress stepped in and said thou shalt they had something in place some would call it a band-aid some would call it putting a patch on it just to be able to tell Congress there see you gave some but honestly I think it's a great step in the right direction but it's still got a long ways to go and you know we as we talked about earlier configuration uh there's a vv and i software and there's a lot of people don't even know what things like an ap1b are or what the routes are come out of an ap1b and how where i'm going to operate with respect to those routes different classes of interspace what it's clearly defined not clear to find with regard to liability a person can operate a small uab if they have physical or mental conditions but when the regulation says certify yourself to be capable in order to get the license what does that mean abilities to and that's that's exactly right that's what was going through my mind as we were talking before the break because uh the it looks like what's happened is the the obligation that is typically present in aircraft certification which is all the part 25 search or part 30 free whatever the certification may be for engines and airplanes and operators that's been rolled over and been replaced by a obligation by the operator once he's got through this training and got himself a uab operator's license uh to behave safely and to operate safely and to obey all the rules so rather than force the operator or the the configuration into a standards-based design set again it's simply been said okay you're responsible and implicitly your own liability management would define how much variations allowed in that configuration or in your operation because you are responsible so it's transferring the responsible responsibility from the standard writers and the rule writers over to the operator himself and i i suspect it will find over time an experience uh that some form of standards will have to come back in into the game but it'll only be the experience that tells us that certainly yeah i mean what you think and tell a 16-year-old i mean i don't know about the 16-year-olds in your neighborhood but in my neighborhood if you give them a drone they're going to be dropping a cracker from the thing uh one of the things chasing the neighbors cats and everything else so these are the guys that buy these things and you know they're going to declare themselves uh operable they're stable uh you know the liability is going to arrest it their shoulders let's uh think about that right and that that again turns into standards of some kind and in fact the uh the ntaa i believe and the or the rtca and astm are both working on standards for structure and and propulsion and integration and this sort of thing as well as communication those those professional societies are still pushing forward here on working through what they might come up with in terms of standards for those areas and i suspect what'll happen is the experience gained under the continuous 3 3 3 work as well as the now 107 will point in the direction of whether some of those standards are needed and then faa will have available to it uh a band of uh professionals who are working through this problem and are ready with standards that can come forward but that'll start constraining and and and controlling the uh configuration and the operations limitations and such in a way that are a little bit more a lot more specific than what we have in the rules today in the new rule today yeah and so uh and and actually experience your you're gaining through nasa and the experience for gaining through the faa test sites like alaskans and hawaiians and such uh will contribute to all of that so i think there's a uh as some people might think that 107 has represents a major state change and an arrival of some new functionality in a walk in the park but that isn't true it's as you said it's just a beginning of that walk in the park now we have the the beginning of the way to get experience growing and to get feedback from operations and that'll all lead to this continual evolved cycle evolutions evolution of thinking in the faa of how you take what you've got and how you make it better and how you eliminate the the traps that were not understood when the rules were written yeah i guess we kind of look at it the same way as we were at the beginning of the aviation industry the first pilot license uh came from the barnstormer that just told the guy okay you're good enough ahead you got it and uh you know based on his uh word um i'm now qualified by um today we've as you say we've developed the standards and the education process and and uh the knowledge banks that we now i have a great system in place that takes a pretty long time to get um you know and certainly if i want a pilot license i'm going to spend four thousand dollars uh just for my uh just for my uh you know small investment partners and and what we're going to see is fact on that account just so people watching this know is that the the test you have to take uh in order to begin your uh 107 uh unmanned air system certificate is going to cost 150 bucks so we're now adding that level of of um uh you got to be dedicated you're going to go spend 150 bucks on a test and if you if you don't pass the test and you have to take it again you get to spend 150 a second time it isn't like once 150 and you keep going to you pass it it's 150 every time you take it so there's cost involved and there's implied liability involved that now is is elevating the nature of the of the business away from the rc airplanes and such which don't have any of that or don't have much of that into sort of in the in the area our risk management people start paying attention to it because they're our lab and it's attached and for the small business dad that's going to work out just fine and even for the small business entrepreneur that's just starting out that's going to just fine but for that 60 year old kid that uh goes out there and buys that thing at fries electronics or radio shack um you tell him he's going to need 150 dollars he's going to look at you and say yeah sure i'll uh i'll pull that right out and so we're going to see once again the compliance issues are going to be a challenge and the and then the enforcement issues are going to be in challenge and presently there is nothing written into the law that addresses the enforcement there well that's that's the thing we've uh we had kreg burns out here once he's faa's uh west coast anyway uh law enforcement outreach guy also also takes care of laser and uh it's pretty clear in his mind as he explains it that the uh the enforcement remains at the local law enforcement level that means the police or sheriff's department whatever it might be county sheriff and such that uh are going to have to take care of the identification of a deviation from standard behavior and practice and then enforce it they generate a report the report may or may not go back to the faa who may take some action but the faa has no action they can take unless the guy has a license so that situation you represent or that you discussed of a 16 year old kid who isn't going to spend 150 bucks on his license that then turns into one of these areas is very difficult for police because he's not going to get a license and if he doesn't have a license the faa has very little they can do to him because he got nothing he can take away from him so think about this that there are 19,400 and i believe 40 47 something like that 19,400 plus uh municipality around the country uh with a law enforcement uh uh you know entities agencies belonging to them now there are many more law enforcement entities when you count the state federal local tribal municipal all of that and somehow there has to be an education process that reaches out to these guys now the international association of chiefs of police they have a pretty good baseline i think to put out a gold standard it's a um we're offering course but it still takes those guys to come in and be willing to pay for the time and the money to send their people to these courses and many of them just too darn busy to worry about a 16 year old dude who is doing something harmless uh in their eyes um such as flying your drone uh you know around a park or something you know Leonard let me let's let's uh reserve this discussion for a follow on program that's a very important piece working with the police department in Honolulu right now on that very issue and exactly as you mentioned understanding and education and training and what the prosecutor will accept are all the rules of the game but at this point we have reached the end of our new shortened program and Leonard I thank you very much for coming on that late at night out there in new mexico and we'll see you again sometime on this show and folks we'll see you next friday on where the drone leads
