First of all, I would like to excuse for my bad English, but I will try to do my best about this presentation, Guinea Preventing and Responding to Ebola Crisis. I will start with some strategic question because it's crucial to know what is the background. Could these recent Ebola outbreak have been predicted? Why was the magnitude of the outbreak so high? And could the extension of the outbreak have been contained? Could Ebola various diseases happen again? And why these local communities react negatively? Why so much rumor misperception? What are the role of the country and international community and the future for globalization? This is a very important question that people use to raise at a different level saying related to this Ebola outbreak. And now the impact of this recent outbreak, as you know, Guinea was the epicenter of this Ebola outbreak. And how Guinea can contribute in the research and development side with regard to this huge outbreak. What we learned that this is the first time, people used to say that health can have an impact and social, economical growth. But this is the first time in Guinea that people realized that health issues can stop every single thing in the country, including travel, including the airport, including mining company, including trade. And all these together, it was a very big shock to community first and also to political leader.  He's not very serious. And we will deal with our business. But at the end of the day, people realized that these are very crucial things. And health can be a big issue in that context. One of the problem also was the communication. You couldn't imagine with these mass media and international global media can impact at the community level when my aunt, my cousin in the rural and remote area can listen to CNN on BBC, on France Venkat, saying, oh, this can be worse. And the first message was saying, there is no medicine, there is therapeutic and no vaccine. And we encourage people to go to the health facility. They say, why am I going to the health facility to die? No, I don't want. They go to another place. That was a very big, challenging situation. As I've said, Ebola was a very, very unprecedented outbreak in West Africa. And Guinea was the epicenter. WHO have organized a set of meetings in Geneva. Amazing things was, in terms of research of development, there was a plan for Liberia, where NIH from United States was helping Liberia to conduct clinical trial. And there was CDC and also London School to support them. But for Guinea, there was nothing. And we said, what happened to support Guinea? And the reason we started, we asked WHO to support Guinea to organize a clinical research. And the reason for Guinea asking that request is the potential reduction of the magnitude of disease. And we started implementing the therapeutic, like Favipiravir, Plasma Convalescent, Interferon, and ZMAP. And also, we were thinking that vaccine can interrupt and stop the outbreak as soon as possible. And we started the two components of clinical trial. The first one is the ring vaccination. We tried to vaccinate around the Ebola positive case, vaccinating contact and contact of contact and all the neighbors around a ring. And also, the other thing is how these vaccines can impact and frontline workers beyond health workers at the hospital. That was the second component of the study. And lastly, the country will benefit from capacity building. And we made a lot of training to let people be able to conduct clinical trial on the field. That was not a very easy task. If you have to conduct clinical trial in so dangerous and deadly contexts, it's very challenging. I remember as a co-PI involved in that study, when you go to the field as quick as possible, you never know who is who. And we are vaccinating a contact, contact of contact. And some contact was a very highly contact. And two days after, there was sent to the treatment center because there was positive. And we were together working that contact. And it's a very important development. Roughly, the magnitude was very high. As you can see, there was two waves. The first intervention was the first wave. We had more than 3,880 cases. Among them, the case fatality rate was 67%. And after that, some time ago, we were facing a sexual transmission. And three months later, we had a transmission through the sexual. In total, we had 3,800 and more than 200 and 500 cases. I was in Kikwit-Forebola in 1995. That was quite different because the extension was different. It was another context. And the geographic context limited the extension of the disease. That was not the case in Guinea because there was a lot of movement, a lot of mobility, and migration also. People, cases, contact, deadly. All these make a lot of factor to transmission. This is roughly the epidemic. There was more than six waves. When we are thinking that we are over to the control of the epidemic, he starts again. And it was very, very challenging for all the people. Despite we had the chance to implement Convalescent Plasma, Favipiravir, Interferon, and a new innovative lab test like a rapid test for Ebola. Now we are about the survivor study testing the immunity of these people. Now, what was the main strategy to develop on the field? It was surveillance and contact tracing lab confirmation that was a very crucial step also, case management. And we had a lot of partners working on that. And infection prevention and control of infection adequate and dignity burial and community and social mobilization as well as coordination. We had a lot of partners. It's amazing, but it's quite important how to coordinate such kind of intervention. Just some picture with a World Isolation Treatment Center. And you can see the high risk area. People is walking on this area. This is some also for staff to relax and to have a lunch. Now we conduct the vaccine trial. And we are happy to see that we had a very promising phase three clinical trial result that was published in the Lancet. Guinea was the only country who can be able to conduct a phase three trial. Phase three trial is to conduct trial during the epidemics. When Sierra Leone and Liberia started, there was no cases because the disease and the outbreak was interrupted. And for this case, I couldn't say we are lucky, but we had a chance to test the only phase three clinical trial on the field. And that was very challenging, as I've already said. People say, OK, we were the epicenter that can be a contribution to global health science on this. Now we are also dealing with survival because we saw the resurgence of the disease through sexual transmission. And you can see how the magnitude is. And the epicenter was in this region, the forest region. He moved from migration, mobility, to connect with the capital. And some of the district was not attended, but more so than notify some cases. What was the challenges we are facing? The better understanding of the disease, because that was a very new thing for people. People was dying, and there was a lot of rumors saying, oh, this is the government who's inventing these things just to disturb people. And there was a lot of communication issues related to these outbreaks. Migration issues impact a lot of population. People were very shocked about the death and the magnitude, the case fatality rate also. We had a lot of problems with the principle of good clinical practice to conduct a study in an emergency situation as well as to take into consideration the ethical issue and the regulatory pathway. Because it's not easy just to test the vaccine, but the vaccine needs to be licensed. If you have no product license, it's not going to be used in widely aspect. And also, one of the problems we are facing, the virus is circulating. How the virus can be in contact with the human, and the human are more and more aggressive to the forest and trying to disturb. But I think we need to look for also this ecological study as well as animal reservoir. And we are also taking advantage for all the sense related to variability and sequences and also country capacity building. We took the opportunity for capacity building as you have already seen. But one of our orientation is how we can work together these three affected countries in the Manor River Union like Liberia, Sierra Leone, and Guinea, as well as Côte d'Ivoire. We are in the political context of the sub-regional collaboration. For us, this is the way we can strengthen the partnership. And we are also the chance to have a very strong partnership, including all the UN institutions, bilateral cooperation, academia, NGO, manufacturer, regulator, ethical review board, et cetera. I think that also can be a lesson learned here. But the lack of communication during the crisis makes things worse in our context. Misperception, ignorance, lack of confidence of the community. How can you imagine that we are trying to help people and some community attacks health workers and kill them? Why? Because for them, they are coming to kill them.  And it was a very, very difficult situation. As I've said, mobility migration was a very, very challenging. Could you imagine some people, because Ebola disturbed the ceremony and the behavior of the community? Ceremony of burial ceremony and the death ceremony, all together was a very challenging and a change. We had also learned a new technology. When I was in Kikwit, the first cases to be the diagnostic have to be sent from Kikwit to Kinshasa and Kinshasa to Belgium and Belgium to CDC. Could you imagine? We made more than two weeks before the result of the cases. Now people was thinking just in terms of four hours was not enough in our country. Because before people have a burial process, they have to be sure that it's a cases, confirmed cases are not. That was also a very challenging. We had a lot of leadership, ownership of the research with various partners to be strengthened. And the resilience of socioeconomic development, health system strengthening was also challenging in Guinea perspective. What is the man-home take messages for us, health crisis, impact negatively the socioeconomic development in Guinea? And the world should determine that impact the human life and the future. Better prevention than responding to the crisis like a fireman, we need to prevent and to be more preventive in that situation. We, as I've already said, focusing on sub-regional Ebola research partnership. Thank you so much.


My name is Buriana Rosa, and I'm a Bulgarian artist. Currently, I live in Upstate New York for at least two years, or maybe more, I don't know, but I'm originally from Bulgaria. So I'm very much attached to the culture of the female emancipation that was realized. So those are the three important things in my art that determine, that shape my art. The first thing, especially from the feminist point of view, is the female emancipation. And I'm going to talk more about the Russian Bulgaria because I'm more familiar with these two countries. The second theme is the body and its liquids and its wholeness. I work a lot with my body, you will see this. And the third one is biotechnologies and the body as a construct rather than being static. So here, this is a little introduction to the female emancipation in the communist countries, which are already post-communist. So what happened and what is a crucial difference comparing to the Western feminism is that the female emancipation was conducted by the state immediate and it was an immediate process. I'm going to read this to save time. So female emancipation in Eastern Europe was immediate and conducted by the state. It came together with the communist ideology and it was part of it, as opposed to the feminist movements in other countries that are gradually achieving women's rights. The female emancipation was also futuristic with the goal to create the new human, not a new woman only, but the new human, who will not be concerned with the old concepts of property, imperialism or racial, gender and nationalist discrimination, but will rather be a creative person who conquers the cosmos for the sake of prosperity of all humanity, not only for women again. So the person, the woman who was actually the ideologies of the female emancipation in Russia after the Bolshevik revolution is Aleksandra Koluntai and she was the most prominent woman in the Soviet administration after the revolution, as I said. So as you see this poster, this is her and on your right is, sorry, is this poster that proclaims or speaks about the working woman who is the builder of, working emancipated woman who is building socialism. So I have to, I would like to emphasize on the fact that the word feminism was not used, not because we didn't have information what feminism is because of the iron curtain or something like this, but it was, the word feminism was charged with some meaning which was not proper to name the struggle of the working women. Instead it was associated with female separatism and with the female emancipation ideologized or being part of the movement of the bourgeoisie for jets. And here I'm going to read a little part of the Aleksandra Koluntai's autobiography of sexually emancipated communist woman. And this is when, this is just before the revolution when she was creating a group of the working women who has to be presented in the parliament and work towards the female emancipation. I worked with Mike and Main to assure that our women workers who were to participate in the Congress emerged as an independent and distinct group. I managed to carry out this plan, but not without opposition. My party comrades accused me and those women comrades who shared my views of being feminists and of placing too much emphasis on matters of concern of women only. At the time there was still no comprehension at all of the extraordinary important role in the struggle devolving upon self-employed professional women. Nevertheless, our will prevailed. A women workers group came forward at the Congress in St. Petersburg with its own program and it drew a clear line of demarcation between the bourgeoisie of jets and the women's liberation movement of the working class in Russia. So these differences are very, people are not really familiar with this and unfortunately the misinterpretation or misunderstanding of the female emancipation in Eastern Europe just contains or sustains the misinterpretation of the feminist art or the art made by women. And now in the 90s we began using the word feminism which is already charged with some other meanings and with the whole history of the feminist movements all over the world in the 70s. So it doesn't have the same meaning so that's why we began using it. But nevertheless after the coming democracy came actually together with consumerism. And so with consumerism there are some issues of the way how a woman can be presented already as an object or already as something that can be both instead of working creative woman. So this video, you probably saw it, this video is connected with time and to me it is a way to represent the immediate changes that can happen just in a second. Sometimes we can just hang out for hours and hours somewhere and nothing can happen to us but sometimes something really crucial in our life can happen just in a second. So here this video represents actually it is a video which is made out of 30 seconds video footage and I split the second into little frames and going back and forth I in a way stretched the time and put more attention, focused on the way how these faces change. And so this is kind of a reference to the period of my teenagers when I was going through all these changes in our society. So here this is another series of photos that I made in the 90s and it represents the crisis of the female identity after the end of the communism and after the end of the female emancipation ideology let's say like this. So as I said women decided that they can be paid because just because they are beautiful and there are many women who think that actually I'm so beautiful that I don't want to go to university and I don't want to go to work I would rather stay at home and be paid by my sugar daddy or my husband or whoever and this is what I really want and this is something that the communists were not giving me permission to do. So but to me this is a crisis. So my beautiful woman on the front is actually this new female identity that was not familiar to our countries before the end of the communism and on the back this is a woman who has okay this is the name of the work is the good, the bad and the ugly and as far as we have genders in our language so it is if we translate it from Bulgarian it is the good woman, the bad woman and the ugly man. So the identity of the woman on the background is kind of not really determined yet because the issues of homosexuality and queer in general were not really developed or not really talked about until the end of the 80s although there are elements of it especially in the image of the emancipated woman which is very queer image which is very men-like, boys-like, active woman. So yeah there is a woman who on the background fights with a man and another one who doesn't fight who she's just paid. This is a video that probably I'll show later and this is one of my first video works. I just, I'm worried about the time so I have to talk about many other things and maybe I'll play it at the end if I have time. So the second thing, the body and its liquids warmth and wholeness. I work a lot with my body and a lot with surgical intervention on it. So here this is a performance that I made and I have a lot of photo documentation and video documentation and what I did here is that I stitched up myself to my mirror image with surgical needles and thread. And from just mentioning Locale here this is a perfect example of how to put together the imaginary, the symbolic and the real and where the real is. The real is actually in between the mirror image and the real image and to me the real is the stitch which is pretty utopian and pretty unconceivable. Something that you can't really materialize and you can't really touch and it is kind of painful. So this is a metaphor of Lacan. This is a little bit of a video from it that I'll probably show later and now I'm going towards another performance that I just did at Exit Art here in New York City when I was already here.  I'm sorry, probably I'm not pronouncing it correctly but Venice Axionism. People from Vienna, not Venice. So what I did here is that I actually reproduced what he did is that he didn't make a live performance he just made a photo series and on the basis of the photo series this myth exists as a ultimate representation of the performance artist's heroism. And so I decided because it is a myth I decided to reproduce it through photography but also as a live performance. So I did a live performance and I stitched up this dildo to my belly.  I asked the public, the audience to take pictures of me doing this and reproducing the mythological photos that Rudolf Schwarzkogler did. So this is one of his castration photos for which he actually used the fish. And so you see this is the other photo that somebody from the audience did. This is another one. And the first one that I showed, okay this is another one and I'm bonding this thing to my body. The first picture is not really reproduction of his photos but this was a picture that was taken by a woman from the audience and she said it is very beautiful from this side. I want to take this picture. So this is the end of this performance and now I'm going to talk a little bit more about the body at the end because this connected with my last performance but I want to also mention another very, very, very important part of my work which is science and technology in conjunction with art and all social and ethical topics that are raised by the development of science and technology. So here I participated in a collaborative project which is a Cyborgian project. This is a robot that is created, actually it has a biological brain which is created out of mice, neurons, cells, brain cells that through electrodes it controls the robotic arm and this entity makes drawings. The interesting thing about this project from a feminist point of view is that this body was created without any notion of gender. None of the scientists or artists who participated in this project have ever thought that we are going to make this robot to be female or male or hemophrodite or something else. This is just an entity which is alive, intelligent but it doesn't have any gender determination. So here it is me. I have some hands-on experience in bio-lab and this is very important for artists who deal with bio-art and this is another performance that I did as a reference to the genderless type of thinking or construction of biological body. What I did here is that I stitched up my vulva and again with stitches, with surgical needles. So this was my symbolic gesture to represent the idea of the genderless body, the body that will probably, we are going to create in the future and it will change, it will be a revolutionary change in our thought thinking about gender. And my last performance, okay, this is another thing, we stitched up together with my partner, Oleg Movrumati, who sits over there who is really, really great help for me for all of my ideas and all of his ideas because they are collective. So we stitched up together and this is again an exit art and we tried to walk together stitched up. It was very, very hard. This is my last performance and I'm going to end up with this. This is my thesis work. I'm graduating from the Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute in the master's degree in electronic arts. So what I did here is that I was thinking again about my body as a whole thing without dismissing or just trying to erase the difference between or the separation between two mirror parts of the body. So I stitched up myself, me to myself. I, so as you see, Oleg is helping me. There are many people documenting it and so all these photos, again, this is another element that I didn't talk about but this is an important thing that the people from the audience they are making documentation of our works, of our performances. So those are more pictures of it and the person who documents it is always a part of the performance itself which is also not very typical for most of the performance artists who try to separate the audience from them. I want to have the audience touching my body. I want to have the audience seeing my body through the frame and creating their own myth about me or about whatever they think I'm doing through the pictures that they are taking. So those are many pictures taken from the people from the audience and as you see my body is stitched up over there and I sit on a mirror which is another symbol that I'm obviously using for most of my work. I think I'm going to end up and I guess people can ask me questions later on, not here. Thank you.


Border-teller pertussis is known to produce a protein called FIM3, which can cause the bacteria to agglutinate when it is present at high concentrations. This phenomenon is known as autoagglutination. In this study, researchers isolated a mutant strain of B. Pertussis that did not produce FIM3, and found that it did not display the autoagglutination phenotype. They then used whole genome sequencing and immunoblotting to identify the gene responsible for the mutation, and discovered that it was located in the FIM3 promoter region. Further experiments showed that the mutation caused the deletion of a single C nucleotide from the promoter region, resulting in the absence of FIM3 production and the loss of the autoagglutination phenotype. Additionally, they found that the mutant strain had a lower level of FIM3 production compared to wild-type strains, suggesting that the mutation may have been selected for in the Japanese population due to its ability to reduce autoagglutination. Finally, they tested the frequency of autoagglutination in clinical B. Pertussis isolates collected. This article was authored by N. A. O. Otsuka, Kintorokoid, Masotokagoto, and others.

All right guys, the first thing I have to say is Nintendo, I'm not mad, I'm just disappointed. Wasn't that like the worst thing your parents ever said to you when you were a kid? I would rather than be mad, and that's how serious this is Nintendo. Okay, first up, I need to get this out of the way. I love Nintendo, from the NES to the Switch. I have loved Nintendo every day of my freaking life, and why have I loved Nintendo as much as I always have? The games, and the quality of the games. Nintendo's mindset behind their video games has always been fun. Literally every game they make, they cram fun into every aspect so that at its core, it is an enjoyable experience for as many people as possible. That is Nintendo. That's what's kept Nintendo alive as a company, even through failed consoles like the Wii U, because it still had fantastic games. It was Miyamoto himself that once said, a delayed game is eventually good, but a bad game is forever, or something like that. I don't know the direct quote. Which is why, when I look at the mobile games, I start to wonder, what is the mindset here? Do you really think you are making amazing quality games for everyone to enjoy? So putting Nintendo quality games onto a phone, that would be a good idea. But as of yet, Nintendo hasn't done that. They have not put a Nintendo quality game onto a phone. What they have done, is what we're gonna talk about today. And look, I haven't talked about any of these mobile games yet. At all, even though I'm huge in the Nintendo, I've left it alone, because end of the day, they're not for me. I don't find any of them very enjoyable. But going back to like 2016 and watching Nintendo slow decline into whatever the heck this game is now, it's comedically hilarious in a way, and nothing about it represents Nintendo at its core, in my opinion. Like going back to Mario Run in 2016, Nintendo had a very Nintendo approach to that game. Was it the best game ever? No, it was fine. I actually didn't mind it. I kind of like the run and jump genre of games on mobile phones, but the approach to it that was very Nintendo was how they sold it. You could pick that game up and play the first few levels for free, and then for $10, you could unlock the rest of the game and you were done. It was a very basic model and it just felt very Nintendo generous. $10 for that entire Mario game. Okay, it's not for me, but fine. And that is actually what we're going to be looking at today, because believe it or not, I've actually done research for a video, so smash like on this video for me actually trying for once. And we're gonna take a look at all of Nintendo's mobile attempts. So there's like five or six games they've done, and it's really interesting. Really interesting watching so clearly their mindset change from Mario Run to Mario Tour through these games, and it's all based on money. It's interesting, I think, to see Nintendo's approach to making money and what they consider a failure in terms to making money out of the game. There's like a whole another thing I want to talk about in regards to Pokemon Go. It's so freaking scummy and they did something recently that technically breaks the app store terms of service, and we're going to get to that, but I want to focus on the Nintendo published ones. So with all that said, and speaking about making money, I'm just like sponsored by G Fuel now. Like all the time, consistently and constantly. This is a new flavor, Cherry Limeade. Haven't tried this one yet.  Delicious. Now I want to take you guys back to 2016, when Super Mario Run released. I already talked about it briefly, but let's look at some figures. And I know figures, okay, numbers, figures might be boring, but in this case, it's actually very interesting. So bear with me here because this gets spicy. So Super Mario Run. It was free at first then $10 to unlock the game. In its first week, it made $14 million in sales. $14 million in sales. And on the Monday following the game's release, Nintendo's stock price dropped more than 7% due to its poor market reception. So as far as mobile games go, making $14 million on a budget $10 game in the first week was apparently bad enough to drop Nintendo stocks by 7%. Within the first three weeks, it made $30 million in revenue from around the 3% of people who bought the full game after downloading it. And $53 million in the first year. And apparently, according to Nintendo, was a flop. They didn't make their money back. Apparently, they didn't make money from that. It wasn't profitable. Surely making that Mario Run game wasn't that difficult. Surely it didn't have $50 million invested into it. Surely. But regardless of that, it is interesting when you compare that number to Fire Emblem Heroes. So as I said, Mario Run made $53 million in its first year. Fire Emblem Heroes made $240 million in its first year. And that game was free. You didn't have to spend a single dollar.  So Fire Emblem Heroes released in 2017 in February. The thing you paid for in that game was you paid to unlock more powerful characters. However, you didn't know what character you were going to get and what their stats were going to be. You're following me here. It had loot boxes. So during the first day of the release, Nintendo reported the game generated more than $2.9 million in the first day. And as of February 2019, the game has made $500 million. That's a lot of dollars. I could buy you a lot of burritos at Taco Bell. I don't know why my mind went there. Maybe I'm hungry. And they went on record saying they preferred the way they did Mario. They preferred that way of selling their mobile games at the price point, but it's not beneficial to them. Which is, I get that, but it gets worse. So then in November of 2017, we actually do get a breath of fresh air here. I like this. I like this one. Animal Crossing Pocket Camp. This game was actually pretty good. I played this one. I didn't mind it at all. I'm not a huge Animal Crossing guy, but I thought I would try this out because it was free and I have a phone. Bethesda was right. The thing about this game that made it a good mobile game was it kind of represented the mainline titles fairly well. It was actually pretty close to those games in quality. And there was like a budget scale down version, but they did it really well. And the micro transactions were handled even better. So in everything in the game, you have to make it. You have to craft it. And it takes a certain amount of time. And the longer you play, the longer these times are. It takes hours to make a certain thing. Or you can just pay to have it made right away. Now there's two reasons that I actually like this in this game. One, this person here on Vias, they actually compared the mobile game to the mainline 3DS title before it. And it was actually quicker crafting most things in the mobile game than the 3DS game, where you couldn't pay to have things sped up. And if you didn't want to sit around and you did, this is the second thing that I don't mind. If you wanted to speed it up, you at least knew what you were paying for. You were paying for this thing that you are crafting to be done now. You put your money in, you know exactly what you're getting. That's it. You're done. You don't feel ripped off because it wasn't a gamble. As of September 2018, a year after its release and the last thing I could find on it, the game grossed 50 million. Okay, I mean, that's a lot of money to me. But apparently, according to Nintendo, that's a flop. If Mario Run was a flop at 53 million, Animal Crossing was obviously a flop at 50 million. So now at this point in Nintendo's eyes, they're one for three. And this is where things start to get interesting. You ever heard of Dragalia Lost? No, me either. I hadn't heard of this before I started researching this video, but apparently it's a Nintendo-published RPG game for mobile. Apparently just pretty bland and uninspired. It's not a bad game at its core. Again, I haven't played it and even heard of it before. But this game grossed 16 million in its first two weeks and raised over 50 million at the end of 2018. And so in like September to December, it made $50 million. So this Dragalia Lost game that I had never heard of before and definitely doesn't have Mario Cloud made way more money than Mario Super Mario Run did. How? How is that possible, you might be asking? Well, guess what? You have to pay to unlock characters, powerful characters with random abilities and you never know what you're gonna get. It's gambling again. So they went for the Fire Emblem method of doing things. And that's whatever again, I guess. My stance up until here, it's whatever. You can see Nintendo is testing the waters here. Now they've done four games, two of them with the way they probably wanted to do them and two of them were the way that was making them money. Yes, Dragalia didn't make as much money as Fire Emblem, but again, I never even heard of it, but it made more than Mario. So in Nintendo's eyes, that's probably a win. Also, I will say that apparently that game was really bad for microtransactions when it released and Nintendo reportedly asked them to tone it down. So there's that. So we're on the fifth game now, Dr. Mario World, which released in July 9th and I forgot I actually downloaded it the other night when I started thinking about making this video. And here's what I find really interesting about this game. And it directly plays into what we're about to see in tour, in my opinion. Dr. Mario, it's like a puzzle game, you know. Actually, the way they did this, it's eerily like Candy Crush. Not only the way it's set up, and you have these hub worlds where you go level by level, you have a timer with the amount that you can play levels until you run out and then you have to wait for it to recharge or pay to get more plays. If you lose and you're like this close to beating the level, you can pay a little bit or use your collected whatever if you have it to keep going. It's structured a lot like Candy Crush but also visually. It just has a weird, mobile-y Candy Crush aesthetic to it. So you do have those ways, I guess, of speeding things up. So they've gone back to the animal crossing way, which you might think, well, that's failed twice. Why are they trying a third time? They've actually meshed their two ideas into this one and you can see what they were trying to hope for. So on top of that, on top of being able to pay to have things done quicker, you can also pay to unlock characters.  So for example, you can unlock Dr. Mario, Dr. Bowser, Dr. Peach, and a bunch of others that can be purchased with coins or free currency owned by completing levels or diamonds, which can be bought with real money in packs ranging from $1.99 to $69, LaMalle to $69.99.  Don't understand. In fact, not many people did do that when you look at how much money this game made. It's kind of sad actually, but it's what they call a gacha, a gacha system similar to the Fire Emblem Heroes and Dragalia Lost where you don't know what you're gonna get. It's a gamble, it's a random. You're at the mercy of the game as to what it gives you and you can tell that it's Nintendo, they've gone two for two and on this fifth one they're like well what if we just and we'll have something amazing? We'll have a freemium game where you don't have to spend any money but you can if you want things to happen quicker or if you want to be better at the game with better characters. And how did that work out for them? In the first three weeks, $100,000. It's pretty bad. That was just in US. I couldn't find figures for anyone else but that's... I didn't hear anyone talking about this game at all. So I would say that one definitely flopped which is weird because you would think merging the ideas would help more than the other ideas if even by a little bit but I guess this game just didn't work. To be fair it's not that good. None of these games are good.  The base game is fine. Visually it looks fantastic. I kind of like how they've built their own courses for this. It kind of feels like its own standalone Mario Kart game just not good but when you get three of a kind you get like the frenzy and you can go crazy. I kind of like that actually. At the end of the day though the racing is horrible.  You can pick between two modes of play. One is like just you can't drift. You just press either left or right on your screen and it'll go either left or right very slowly. I could literally finish a race by just holding down one way and like grinding into a wall and it will push me to the finish line anyway. There's like literally no way to not get to the finish line in this game but there's the way of doing it with no drifting or you can opt to have drift and then you only drift.  I mean to be fair I pretty much only drift in Mario Kart 8 anyway but so the controls are kind of and I got used to them after a little bit it's fine it's whatever the gameplay is it's just it's just mediocre but there's a lot of things there's a lot of things about this game that are that are very very shady to me to start with I naturally assumed I was playing online when I started racing apparently it just generates names and it kind of makes you it kind of like tricks you into thinking you're racing other people which made me inherently more competitive and I kind of feel like that mentality kind of forces or makes people feel like they should spend more money on the game to be better at it to beat the people they're racing and they might not realize they're not actually racing anyone a little dodgy more running but it doesn't stop there in fact it only starts there so here's the ways you can spend money in this game and maybe there's more because there's a lot the main one is that there's the pipe which is the loot box and if you want to buy the key for the loot box which are these little gem diamond things which by the way since when was there gems in Mario Kart or like anything Mario am I missing something I mean the coins is the currency you earn why aren't these like stars or literally anything from Mario this just feels like I'm looking at a generic mobile game maybe I'm missing something you can buy three of these for two dollars to fire the pipe it cost five I'm shooting the pipe right now I didn't realize I had some let's see what I get no I got baby Mario that's actually a pretty good one so to fire the pipe you need um five to buy three it's two dollars am I missing something so if I buy the lowest amount I still have to turn around and buy another three and then have one left over so then if I want to do it again I buy another one I'd have four so I have to buy one more and then I'll have three left over so then I have to buy another one you see what I'm getting at here why is it three you really are gonna want to spend six dollars and get 10 is the better deal here you get one bonus one and you can get 10 take a fire the pipe twice lucky you you're spending six dollars six dollars and you can fire the pipe twice you get one thing per fire you can get a character a cart or a glider so there's a pretty good chance you could spend six dollars and get two gliders and you can get duplicates you could spend six dollars and get two other things you already have and both of those could be gliders you might be thinking yeah but you could get characters like that cool baby Mario you just got my experience that's not really how it works in fact if I go ahead and click click on this link right here there is a five percent chance at getting characters like Dry Bones Baby Daisy Baby Mario there is a one percent chance at getting the main characters like Donkey Kong Bowser Peach Mario I'm playing a game called Mario Kart and I only have a one percent chance at getting the guy the game is named after and I feel like that's one that a lot of people are going to want because it's Mario then we go down and we see for high end characters these are ones that were highly requested to be in the game so Nintendo knows people want these 0.3 percent chance Dry Bowser Metal Mario Peach at so on 0.3 percent chance so I'm really bad at math so bear with me if my math in this video is wrong either way basic math would tell me if there's a one percent chance at getting Mario I would have to unlock a hundred pipe blows pipe shoots pipe explosions to get a one hundred percent chance of getting Mario and even then there's still a chance you might not get him to fire pipe cost three dollars and you to fire it a hundred times you'd have to fire that pipe three hundred dollars worth of times and then a lot of these characters they have like things about them that make them better make them faster you know the carts and the combinations of everything make you better at it so it really it does become like a pay to win in a way the more I played the more I was losing and the more things I would unlock with better stats the better I would do and it's gambling on a game that at its core isn't that well designed and isn't that fun to play and it doesn't just end there for Mario Kart Tour there's another option that you could get your wallet out for and start throwing more cash into the game monthly a subscription service to this game for five dollars a month you could possibly get gold gifts for racing in tours you could earn badges and you unlock the 200 cc mode it's okay the 200 cc mode at least you're getting something for sure at least there's something in this that isn't a gamble but is it really worth five dollars like when you compare that to Nintendo's online service that's only three dollars a month or 20 bucks for the entire year where you get a bunch of free games you can play like NES and SNES stuff and you can play all their games that have online capabilities online and then you look at this one game one very average game you could spend five dollars a month or 60 dollars for a year do you think this is three times the quality of the NES games furthermore some people have criticized it even further because Apple announced some new arcade thing where you could play 70 plus mobile games if you subscribe for five dollars a month without micro transactions or 70 of those games don't have micro transactions five dollars a month and you get 70 games I don't think this is worth the price of 70 mobile games I don't think this is worth double the price of Nintendo online yeah you get one extra mode out of it big freaking whoop but other than that all you're really paying for here is the same old stuff but with better chance of getting slightly better loot you still have to do all the other stuff you still have to buy the loot boxes it's not like it's a five dollar buy out where you no longer have to pay for things in game no it just adds a little bit more to what you're already paying where's it going to end like what what app is next for Nintendo where they're not only going to do the pay to win and the random characters and a five dollar subscription and what did my chair go I don't know maybe I didn't pay Nintendo enough micro transactions here I'll send them 10 bucks and maybe they'll give me my chair back but before I do my my ending point I did say I wanted to take a look at Pokemon Go for the sake of this video not being too long I'm going to keep this short now I had to get done some really scummy things and it's one in particular I want to draw attention to here but the thing I think is scummy in general about Pokemon Go is I've never seen a game hide its loot boxes so well in plain sight the thing about these other free Mario Nintendo games is that you play them there's options there but they're over there the thing about Pokemon Go is the loot boxes they literally give them to you like candy they give you the boxes and that you're trapped with them on your possession in your inventory these eggs they throw them at you whether you get a present from someone you got a Pokestop there's an egg they give you the loot boxes but they don't give you the key I think that's a little dodgy I think it's like mentally there's something that goes into that that makes you feel like you have possession over something an egg that you want to nurture and open because it's there and you're already walking you're already going the miles the kilometers that go into hatching things and it's like you're wasting your time not hatching the things you have in your possession I think there's something mentally there that makes you want to go and then spend money to open it whereas if you just bought the eggs let's say there was a store you could go and buy an egg you could adopt an egg or whatever instead of buying an incubator which is like two three dollars or whatever you buy an egg for two or three dollars now you have it now you walk with it and you've opted in I think mentally they would make a lot less money doing it that way which is why they didn't do it that way but fine let's say you're the kind of person that even though you have these eggs you don't feel like you need to buy incubators you get one free one and you'll just hatch your free one with that incubator and the fact that you have eight other eggs and your inventory doesn't mess with your OCD like it does mine I couldn't find the percentage rates for like all the Pokemon and I feel like it does change all the time but for example Hyper Rare Pokemon at like 3.4% of getting a Hyper Rare Pokemon in one of these eggs the games like Fire Emblem and Mario Kart isn't about getting all the characters it's not about having a complete roster but in Pokemon the aim of the game is literally catch them all you have to catch them all that is the point that's what drives you is catching them all it costs 150 gold coins to get the base incubator a dollar to get 100 coins so it's two dollars per incubator at a 3% chance of actually getting the one Pokemon you need do the math so hatch these unknown Pokemon the ones that are in like the shapes of letters and stuff it's a 12 and 332 chance of catching them in a 10k egg so in order to have at least a 50% chance to hatch an unknown you have to hatch 19 eggs at 63 eggs this raises to 90% and at 100 eggs you're at 97% so at 100 eggs at 2 dollars an egg you're at 200 dollars to get maybe get one of these unknown out of the 28 let's hope you don't get a double the second time around and at the end of the day if you don't have an issue with any of this I want to look at this I'm actually subbed the Pokemon Go subreddit and I actually did see this thread when it came up with the most recent shiny regional egg event we have evidence presented that the rates were changed from 1 out of 50 to 1 out of 150 to get a shiny regional they changed the drop rates during this event so it was harder it was it was three times harder I think math to getting one of these things here's the thing like this guy for example typically I will buy 20 to 30 incubators per event so he bought these incubators and then found out they had changed the hatch rate they found in Apple's App Store developer guidelines in section 3.1.1 now we're getting technical clearly states that apps offering loot boxes or other mechanics that provide randomized virtual items for purchase must disclose the odds of receiving each type of item to customers prior to purchase not only could I not find the odds for many of these things online no matter how hard I looked despite that if they are out there somewhere you can't change it after the fact not only does it break the guidelines and the terms of service but it's also just scummy to me there's no reason to make something like that harder like the chance of getting it even harder unless you want more people to spend more money and if we're talking about money Pokemon Go has made 3 billion dollars so far 3 billion dollars now that is a lot of burritos from Taco Bell that's actually on par with the highest grossing Pokemon games which was red blue and yellow and it's actually like a like 1 billion more grossing money mass than the next highest Pokemon games which were silver and gold it's profitable I don't think you need to be trying to increase the rates of things to make people spend more money when you're already making 3 billion now we go back to my overarching point here Nintendo your mindset to your games and mobile games or not these are your games your mindset to your video games has always been quality but here's the thing none of these games to me are fun at their core and at best they're knockoffs of other mobile games that have come and gone Mario run fine it's fine it's good it's fine but isn't it just like temple run Dr. Mario to me seems like a reskin of Candy Crush Mario Kart it's just left and right that's it that's the entire game I mean that's like so many mobile games if it's not about the games and the fun and the quality and the innovativeness of the game what is it about well it's about the money and it's about how much money they can make and you look at the first game that they did to the newer ones and they just get greedier and greedier and greedier and the quality of the games aren't gaining any better they're staying consistently air I don't think any of these games are very fun or worth my time or worth playing let alone starting to pump money into it hoping that I unlock Mario at a 1% chance really I guess just be responsible if you're gonna play these games because it is gambling I'd really like to hear your opinions down below because I just have mine and you have yours if you're new here hey if you're a regular here and you want to support the channel let's speaking of selling out remember to hair oh my hair stuck in the new shirt remember to hair flip or whatever that subscribe button and if you're addicted to beat em ups why don't you prove it by buying a shirt I love you guys thanks so much for watching this kind of bomb myself out bye


in the studio here at Davis Media Access. I'm your host, Emily Merton, and today joining me are guests from the Rebecca Lodge. Thank you so much for being here today. Thank you for having us. Why don't you start out by introducing yourselves and telling me a little bit about what you do at the Rebecca Lodge? Well, I'm Leah Rosenberg. I've been with the Rebecca's for about 10 years. I'm a past grand. And we are now getting ready to do a big fundraiser for the Children's Home in Gilroy. Great. And I'm Mary Superacke. I've been a Rebecca for approximately five years. And I've had her as my noble grand in the past, and I chair the Community Support Committee. And the Rebecca's are an organization used to be for the women of the odd fellow members, but now it's, you can be either a male or female and be in the lodge. And our focus is foster care and helping children that have serious needs. And we do a lot of different fundraisers during the year. One of them is breakfast with Santa, just to let you know. So yeah. That's great to know. So tell me a little bit more about what the Rebecca are exactly and how it's connected to the odd fellows. How does it all kind of connect? Well, Davis is lucky in that we have two lodges. We have the Davis Odd Fellow Lodge, and we have the Davis Rebecca Lodge, both active lodges in Davis. And our lodges are with members of both lodges, whether you're male or female, you're happy, everyone's welcome to join the both lodges. And we like to have taken a focus on foster kids and emancipated kids. And that's where our money and our focus is going. What the Rebecca's and the Odd Fellows do, like Leah was saying, we now have a mix of male and female, both are service organizations. And these service organizations, they want to bring people together. So not only are you helping another organization by doing an activity to bring them some support, you're also bringing the community together so they are educated about what we do and about the program, instead of just sending everything is now on the internet. This way people come together, they have fun. They get to know each other within their own community and they get to work together towards a certain goal that then goes back out into the community. So basically that's what the Odd Fellows are. Odd Fellows and Rebecca's were considered odd, right? Yes. Because they were helping people at a time in our history when a lot of organizations beyond the churches were helping people. So we're basically a service organization. Okay, well I think that's really wonderful that you guys have events instead of, it's so easy to set up just to go fund me or a way to just raise money online or something, but I really understand how this brings the community together. So why did you choose this particular home to fundraise for? Well, in the beginning there was, the Rebecca's had a children's home in every community or in every state. This is the last one in all the United States, the Rebecca Children's Home in Gilroy. They work with children that are on a level 14 level. So they're hard to place kids and it needs support from all the Rebecca lodges in California and we've chosen this as our project to support them. They have many different projects going and we wanna make sure they're well funded. That's very important.  So how are you raising the money so far? Well, can I take on just a little bit more? Oh, of course. For people so that they know and then we'll tell you about that because that's gonna be so much fun. Some of what Leah was just scratching the surface on, some of the programs that the Rebecca service and the Rebecca home does and I just wanted to let you know, they house an adoption center so that Rebecca Children's Services and other organizations can come together and help the foster youth find placement or actually have adoption centers. They have the Culinary Academy now which is a big project. The Culinary Academy, it's for youth 15 to 25 and they are in a class. It's part of the hospitality industry and it's a 10-week course and they have to be there three hours or three hour sessions twice a week. Not only are they taking the class, they have to wear the appropriate attire so that they get this whole self-esteem about I am doing something for myself and once they graduate, they're helped with placement and then they go out and they have jobs. So that's wonderful. They learn all different culinary skills. There's also the Family Resource Center because sometimes the children and the families, there's a struggle and with the Family Resource Center, they can come there and learn ways to be together. We're focusing on what they call foster care but the Rebecca's actually call it and I just love this, family linkage. You're linking people together so that they become a family because that's part of the program with the Rebecca's is to make it work and if for some reason a young person is unable to be with a particular family, then the home, and it's a co-housing population, the home then gives them all the support, the health support, the mental health support, the staffing is there's nurses, there's psychiatrists, of course you know you saw the Culinary Institute housing skills for then setting up your own housing eventually, so there's a lot of that. Then they have the Hospital Diversion Program so you don't have to be an emancipated youth going into another facility with no family for healthcare. You can be at the children's home and get your hospital care that you need. They also have the Davis Independent Study, they have a school in three different locations in California, then they have the Outpatient Mental Health and Prevention and Education, it goes on and on and on and the Residential Treatment which is what we're focusing on again, it's like she was saying for the Residential Treatment 24 hour service, seven days a week, on-site psychiatric care, pharmaceutical services, licensed CCLs and all these different therapists, so it goes on and on and on and on. So there's so much that's happening with the Rebekah Children's Home and the Rebekah Children's Services. I just want to give everybody an overview of there's a lot that goes into it and they are accredited, they've been accredited since 2006 and the Rebekah Services and the house was formed in 1897. Wow. So it's over 115 years old. It's still here helping. It's the last one. And it started out as an orphanage as they all of them did in each state as an orphanage. But as they've gone by-by, we've picked up other services and community needs to support these kids. Yes, well hopefully we can all raise awareness for this and keep it going because it sounds like such a wonderful program. But it does sound like it costs a lot of money to support because there are a lot of youth who need this help in this outreach. So how are you going about that? Well, we've had many different programs but the one we're focusing on right now is called Bollywood for Foster Care. Bollywood for Family Linkage. I'll find, I think we have a video, right? Oh, that would be wonderful. Do we want to show that video? Yes, I'll show the video. Don't you talk about what's going to happen on April 2nd? April 2nd. Well, when you arrive at the Oddfellow Lodge on April 2nd, there'll be two floors bustling with activity. On the bottom floor, the lower hall, as we call it, is going to be an Indian buffet made by Mary Phillips and her cooking staff. I'm so looking forward to it.  So you'll be able to have wonderful Indian dinner downstairs in places to sit and so on and so forth. And then you'll be ascended up to the dance room, okay? And up there, Prashant and his dance company, Prashant is, he's a Cornell graduate. He went into business and he decided that he wanted to share his culture. And this is how it came about, sharing his culture through dance. And now he goes around and does these programs for people. Wonderful. So his dance troupe will be teaching about eight different Bollywood dances. So they'll teach us the dance and then we'll get to do it. So upstairs will be a complete dance floor and you'll be transformed in many ways and you'll be learning these dances and he's doing all the music through tapes. He's picking out, I told him this was a family friendly one.  But this is gonna be more of a family friendly one. And really help people understand what is Bollywood? What is the culture? Where is it coming from? I love the whole idea that in a Bollywood movie or Bollywood experience, if things aren't going well, it's gonna continue forever until everyone is happy. So movies could go for hours and hours. And that's why it says you will laugh, you will dance, you will fall in love because it's about having a very good time. Also, we will have different areas where people can look at items that we'll have there for special activity. Then you have to come and find out what those activities are. Some of them involve king's tickets for the next season. Oh. Yeah, I know. And box seats, yeah, yeah, yeah. So it'll be colorful. Some of my friends are going to come and help decorate. We're gonna have some saris and different outfits that people want to. You don't have to dress up, but if you want to, we'll have some laying around. And we'll also have beer and wine for sale at the event and soda and water and things like that too. Wonderful. So when you're at the event, how can you learn more about what it's going to be supporting because it sounds like a lot of fun, but you're also doing a lot of good. Oh yeah, we'll be talking about it. There'll be some downstairs. And then Parshant has graciously offered to talk about it in between, telling about it. I'll be there. I don't think you'll be there, Leah, right? You're gonna be, you'll be at another function that day. Yeah, I'll be at another arm pillow function. Yeah, she has to be at a big gathering at another location. I'll be there, there'll be other people there that will be talking about the Rebekah Children's Home. We will have a poster, and then our wonderful secretary, Nicole, who couldn't be here today because she's at a conference, she's going to have a little mini video looping that we'll have, so things like that. Yeah, there'll be ads all around about what the Rebekah Children's Home is about. Awesome, so is there a certain particular aspect of the home that this fundraiser will be helping or just all around? I'm glad you brought that up, because we're focusing on the facility itself where it houses the young people, the kids that are there, because they need to have a nice place to live. We want to make sure that the facility has the updates that it needs, like any building. This is a beautiful building. If you go on site, it's very Spanish and it's got this stucco outside, except it's really old. It was built in 1897, so we want to just make sure that it's healthy, healthy environment and all of that and it has what it needs to make the residents safe. Also, any monies that, excuse me, any donations and so on and so forth, that they have that they're given, they can utilize it if they don't need to do any repairs, then it will go into the programs I talked about to make sure that the staffing ratio is what it should be. Make sure that the young people that are there, they have the therapies that they need and sometimes it's one-on-one therapy, sometimes it could be a play therapy or a group therapy. You don't know because it's individual care that each one, they have their own individual care plan. And then the other part is what will happen when they're discharged. With this particular part that we are doing our program for is also to help them when they have housing. Do they need a bed? Do they need a couch? Do they need a rice maker? Whenever they have those. Because just imagine how tough it is as a person with a family, if you are disenfranchised and you don't have the strong family support, even if you've gone through this particular areas for those that are having more difficult time, we're trying to make it so that they succeed. Yeah, definitely. I think, yeah, this money will really help support them and in a fun way where you could get involved, you can go to this event. If you wanna know more about it, you can go to the website that's on screen and there's a link to all about the fundraiser. So that is davislodge.org. Thank you so much for talking about this today. It's very important and it's a good way to have fun if you want something to do, support a good cause. So thank you so much for joining us today. Thank you. And I have a little gift for davis media access, a couple of our entry, little like the golden tickets. Oh, thank you. And they're at common ground. Awesome. If anybody's interested. Sounds like it's gonna be a lot of fun. Yeah, and I appreciate you having us here today. Oh yeah, I appreciate you being here.

Welcome to Digital Assets News to get top stories in cryptocurrencies and digital assets and bring on a bite-sized piece. So today we have another episode of Trinity Trading. And as always, we are joined by Alex Maschioli from Trade the Chain. Hello, Alex. Thanks for stopping by. He's going to be doing our sentiment analysis. And if it gets through him, then it goes to our TA gentleman, which is CJ from Market Rebellion. He's going to be looking at the technicals, the charts and everything that I have no idea what he's talking about. And then finally, if it gets through those two, then it comes to me for the fundamental analysis. And we'll see if we can actually make a profitable trade either on the short term or the long term or maybe potentially both. So gentlemen, let's start our engines, see what we got today for a profitable trade. Alex starts with you. Sure thing.  If I could select two of them, because normally you like to give the option of a short term trade or a medium term trade, I'd like to give you one of each. All right. But that means I got to buy both. So I'm kind of maxed out, but we'll see what we can do. Sure. That's right. You did have that episode that said you're broke. I did. I mean, well, I had to buy this robe too. I got to keep up with CJ, damn it. This is how it works. So here we have my short term trade. It's Harmony. It's one that needs to be gotten into in, you know, by the time this video is out shortly after it is pumping on the sediment. I like the first thing I do, first of all, is I go to the one hour projection, and I like to see the heavy weight to the top, and I like to see the average mean in the middle towards the top as well. We see the total average green bar going very high to the right. Also, I don't like the relative tweet volume right now, but I do like the relative trading volume. Some participants in the order book, that's giving me a bullish feel. I then go to the left. I love the very bullish sentiment score. 82 is good for me. We've had good positive bullish legs the whole month. We're up 12.5% today, and that is my pick for the short term trade. It's crazy. So look, so real quick, talk about that one hour projected range. There's three numbers there. So what is that? The middle number versus the left versus the right? Absolutely. This is a rolling one-hour projection that changes every couple of minutes. And so the number to the right is the projected percentage range of the price that it's currently at one hour from now. The one on the left, which is that red 0.95, is a projected lower price from an hour of now. And the middle is the mean average. Okay. That's pretty good. And then, as I always talk about, it's 90% assurance or accuracy, so says trade the chain and the API integration that it has. Correct. So historically, that score is 92.3% accurate for us that we project for the one hour. I'll take those odds. Those are better than Vegas. I'll tell you that right now. All right. My man, CJ, what do you got for the technicals? Yeah. So Alex made a very interesting point stating that he wants to trade this very quickly. And so because of that, we're going to look at a shorter term time frame on the charts here. When we look at longer term time frames, like say the daily or the weekly chart, those are time frames that we're going to kind of look for a trade for the longer, you know, say a week out or possibly even two to four weeks out. Now, with what Alex just discussed and saying that, what was your timing on this trade, Alex? A couple hours, you'd say? Looking for this to be a trade in the couple hour range. Okay. So here we have the one hour chart. And this is a very bullish chart. I'm looking to continue because if you look at our candles here, this is what is known as the sequential indicator. And so typically we will see candles continue on this sequential indicator until we reach a nine at which point we were probably correct or at least come down a little bit in the short term. And so an example of that nine, you can see on the one day here, you see, we were essentially, you know, right here relative to where we were on the one hour and then came down after reaching that TD sequential nine, but are now seeing more bullish momentum really carry through on the shorter term timeframe. So, you know, what I like is the fact that we're seeing an increasing volume on the one hour chart. We're still strong. We've broken past the previous high here at about eight cents and we're a top that top Bollinger band. So this is a very bullish parabola that you can see is already forming and starting to pump here as we go. But looking very bullish on the one hour timeframe, and I would be in this trade, you know, right now, and I'd be looking for kind of resistance not to come in until this other previous high at roughly, let's see where that level is about 10 cents, but 9.8 cents would be the resistance level that this pump will likely go to. But man, look at this thing. Rob, we're already up 4% since we started talking about it.  We just got to start back. All right. That sounds pretty good. Well, I'll make the fundamentals then quick so I can squeeze this video as fast as possible. Let me share my screen. The heck is going on? Because as you were talking, I was looking it up. It's okay, 9 cents, 3.6. What is this? I don't know what this is. Okay, strong buy. Great. And then, of course, I just go to the website. Okay, great. Theorem applications and cross-chain finance. Scaling a theorem application. Maybe it's like a great video they have. That's a weird video. It's a sharding protocol. Trust is Ethereum bridge, solidity, metamask. Okay. Two second finality. Wow. Cross-chain Uniswap support. It actually might be something I could actually use to actually, it looks like it's like a layer two solution. All right. I mean, looks like they could use that. The big thing is where do we buy it? So over at Trade the chain, I'm going to take a look at the trade. What was it called? Harmony? Harmony. Well, Binance on the access to that in Texas, or Binance US still screwed on that one. Who will be? Oh, guess what? I just opened Kucoin. You know why I opened Kucoin? So I could buy Swissbore. It's the only reason. So I'm going to get this on Kucoin and I'm going to pick it up and we'll see where it goes. The reason though, here's the big question, the million dollar question. Why is it pumping right now? Some of the best places to find this would be Harmony. I can find this. No, this isn't it. Sometimes. Yeah. Usually every time you go to the bottom, you can find where they're going. Let's follow them. Let's see if they have any news. A lot of users. January 13th. 93,000 followers. Holy smokes. Ah, it looks like they're communicating with Reef DeFi. Didn't you invest into that at some point? Not me. No, it's the thing of somebody else. Five cabriolet staking validators. Okay. Interesting. All right. The more I talk, the more this is not going to work out. So let me go over to Kucoin and buy this. So is this our short term or is this our long term one? This is our short term. Okay. So what I need to do when we put this in here, this is just the exchange fees. Everybody knows this. This is what I need. Trinity of trading. So what's the ticker? Anybody? One. That's easy. Whoops. What's the day today? March 18th? 18th. Time. Let's call it. 344. Okay. So 15. Eastern. Yeah. Eastern standard time. New Yorkers. All right. So the call price. We're looking at nine cents. I think it might have been a little bit below there, but we might as well round up to nine. Okay. Oh my God, it's already at nine, five. Okay. So let's just call it at nine. We're doing pretty good so far. We got to get this video out. Okay. Anything else we want to talk about? Well, I'd love to give you quickly my second one if we have time. We better go do it fast then. All right. So my second one real quick is going to be StormX. Ticker STMX. A couple things real quick. I like the, I don't like the one hour, but I'm not in it for the short term. I'm in it for the... Keep talking. I'm in it for the daily and long-term sentiment, which are very bullish. I like the relative tweet volume. I love the relative trading volume. And for me, this is a three to four day pop trade right here. And I want to see what CJ has to do. By the way, could you tilt down your camera real quick? We didn't get it. Yeah. I don't know if it's just the robe. It's itchy. It's a new robe. I don't really know if it's good for me. So anyhow. So all jokes aside, Alex has been calling. He's been talking to me about this since StormX was at a penny, maybe even less. And I'm like, okay, I'll look it up. And he's like, hey, it's a penny five and I'll do two pennies and I'll get to it. And here we are and it's on sentiment. And again, it's one of the things I missed. I didn't listen to people smarter than me, which is mostly a lot of people. So I just, I say this in jest. CJ, what are the technicals say for this one? So humble, Rob. Gotta be. The cool thing about StormX, and I think we may see, like, imagine if we saw, okay, well, first I should just back up and say that PayPal bought Honey, which is a very similar company to StormX, you know, they get cashback. Don't do it with crypto. And they're only in about four or five countries. But StormX is good because it's global. It can be in any country. They didn't even advertise in the Netherlands. And yet they're getting a lot of customers from there because the token is global. So if Jack Dorsey were to kind of explore something and buy StormX with Square, man, what's a price increase that would bring and hype that would bring out? That would be a Utopia for Alex. Yeah, Alex, I saw that I saw him leaving one of his condos and he had a big bag at one time. So yeah. So all right. So what do we have for that tactic goes right now? Okay, I think this is going to go up pretty, pretty fast. I am long-term bullish on StormX. The one thing that I see here in which I like to have a little patience is that when we hit these nines after such a parabolic run-up, when the nine is, in fact, the peak of the trend, typically we'll see at least a day or two of bearish to neutral price action, to at least give back some, to give the bulls and the people who bought down here a chance to take profits. And so price probably will come off a little bit from this. I expect kind of a consolidation here around this level before a potential test hire. But from a tactical perspective, I am going to be a little bit more patient than Alex on this one. And I'm going to wait for price to consolidate and for this volume to start increasing again, because right now it does look like we may be at a potential interim top. Apologies, Alex. So you're saying to buy it? What's it you're saying? I bought it. Now I'm just kidding. Perfect. All right. So then for the fundamentals, I saw your interview with the CEO and he was talking about, just like you said, about with Honey. And it's, correct me if I'm wrong, it's cashback and cryptocurrency for the things that you actually buy. Is that what it is? Cashback in StormX, yes. Okay. And then did they not just have a partnership with Adidas? Yes, they've, they've partnered with Nike as well and 700 other stores worldwide. They've got some good partnerships. Okay. I should have listened again. All right then. So let's see where you can buy it. Let me share my screen. And then it's, how long has it been around? Since 2014. Yeah. I don't know why I haven't heard about this before. You know, let me see. StormX. This is a pretty cool feature. I like this. Binance. What's your Uniswap? No, bit you have it. But it's also on Voyager, right? Yes. Voyager can't be listed to everybody because it is a brokerage. So it connects to multiple, multiple exchanges to give you the best price on the spread. That's how they, you know, make everything. So, okay, this looks like a good one. It's, what do you think, long-term hold, four days or more? Yes. That is my period. Okay. So let me put it in. Is that the ticker? STMX. Thank you. Stormy? It's Stormy. 250. And what's the price? Definitely, you know, when you look at things like Voyager Token and Celsius and Swiss board, you know, you all, you have apps and services that are backing that token that are very nice and very well done. And StormX is no different. You know, Rob, if you don't mind, I'm just going to steal the screen share from you for a second. Just, I'm not trying to shield this. I own no StormX. A lot of my friends own it. Alex owns a ton. But definitely check out the app because when you buy things, you actually do get 2.5% crypto cash back. And it does help you save, you know, so. No, it doesn't. Rob, there for a second. I say it in jest. Look, I mean, if it's, if it actually is graphically, you know, great for what it is, and it's super simple, that's any, that's what everybody wants to do. Have you gone to Kucoin to like, to like buy anything? There is a massive difference between a Kucoin and buying things on Voyager. That's all I'll say. So yeah, people want, like simplicity. Yeah, for sure. What are you gonna say, Alex?  He actually got complaints about high withdrawal fees of STMX off Voyager and Binance. So people were having to pay a lot to get them over to the app in order to stake them. He actually picked up on that, reached out to both Voyager and Binance and got that resolved and had the fees lowered. So StormX users could stake them on the app and keep shopping and buying their Adidas. That's around 18%, if I'm not mistaken, for staking in the app. So very nice. Yeah, there is a, there is a fine difference between like shilling some junk project, then actually talking about a good project, especially ones with utility, and we talk about with Metcalfe's Law and the different things. I'm just gonna put my robe back on. And so just everybody knows, it is a good project. And it just, it just escaped me, like many projects. Anyhow, anything else before we sign off, everybody? Took from me? Me, all right. Let me pump this out as fast as possible so people can be like, oh look, now it's 10 cents for Harmony because Rob can't, Rob can't edit quick enough. And that's it. Anyhow, if you like these types of videos, first of all, thanks for stopping by. We appreciate it. Click the thumbs up, helps the channel tremendously. Also consider subscribing. A lot of things we talk about are time sensitive, as obvious as we just talked about in this video. So for all three of us, thanks so much for stopping by. We appreciate it. And we'll see you on the next one.


Okay. Did you have this exact list that I ended up with listing our levels of organization between the atom and the organism? One thing that I noticed that I did was I tried to put subatomic particles into this list when I was doing it while you were doing it just a minute ago. And then I remembered, oh no, I'm not including subatomic particles because those are smaller or less complex than the atom. We use subatomic particles to make up the atom. Just for the fun of it, let's just review really fast. What are the subatomic particles that make up an atom? Loud and proud, folks, loud and proud, shout it out, no matter where you are. Just kidding. You don't have to shout it if you don't want to. It's good to practice saying things out loud, especially when prompted to answer the question as long as you're not in a library and disrupting people. But the three subatomic particles we talked about that make up every atom are protons, positively charged particles found in the nucleus that determine the element that we're talking about, neutrons, neutrally charged particles that are also found in the nucleus and just contribute to the mass of an atom, and electrons, which are negatively charged tiny little particles that fly around the outside of an atom and are responsible for forming chemical bonds. We'll not directly consider any of those subatomic particles other than that we know they're what are used to build the atoms that we will consider in this lecture. Mostly our conversation about atoms is just going to be about the molecules that are built from those atoms, and the molecules that are built are actually pretty big, so we'll be talking about macromolecules, and so this part, I guess my whole point in bringing all of this up, is this part right here, the organelles and the cells. This is the purpose of the lecture. So we'll see these various levels of organization as we go into the content in this lecture. Right now, I want to provide us with some context, and so I want to remind us that well what we're talking about here are, if we start biggest, biggest perspective possible, we're talking about a human organism, and other critters do have the cells that we're going to look at, but we're just focusing in on what we know about humans. We're talking about cells of the integumentary system, so the skin, and the skin is actually an entire organ.  Okay I did those at the same time or like piled on each other. The organ that we're dealing with is the skin. Our organs are many tissues working together to serve a common function. The function of skin, it's protective, it keeps the bad things out, it keeps the good things in. Thank goodness, it's like our bag that contains us. What would we be? Oh, I do not want to think about what we would be like if we didn't have skin. Your skin is made of three layers. I kind of think you might know this already. Do you? Let's just write them down.  Your dermis is deep to that, and then you actually have another layer that I don't think we learn about that much called the hypodermis. And hypodermis, we're not, we're completely in this conversation, we're going to focus in on what's going on with the epidermis. The cells we're interested in, these melanocytes are found in the epidermis. But does this work for you that we're actually looking at many, many, many different kinds of tissues and structures working together to function as skin. And then I want to name the tissue that we're talking about as well. I told you that we were going to focus in on the epidermis.  It's kind of a long name, but I think it is worth being exposed to one of the many tissue types that if you go further in your study of human critters, and any critter, probably, this tissue type, you will see it frequently. So the tissue itself is called stratified squamous epithelial tissue. How's that for a mouthful? Stratified squamous epithelial tissue. I don't know. I feel like I'm doing a little aside into anatomy and physiology with this lecture, which is fun because it's like how you work. And that stratified squamous epithelial tissue, that's what you're touching. That's the epidermis of your skin. It's made out of that kind of tissue. Let's take a look. Here's how we take a look at the anatomy of our skin. And this is a chunk that, like, lovely. Thank you for taking a chunk out of the anatomy, taking a chunk out of the skin. You can see that we have hair follicles. We have all sorts of stuff. Do you feel like you can see layers here? Do you already have a sense of, oh, I see three layers. What were the three layers of our skin? The skin organ consists of the epidermis, the dermis, and the hypodermis. That is very messy handwriting, but it means hypodermis. I told you, where are we focusing our, where, what are we focusing on? Because we're not going to focus on the entire skin organ. We're going to focus in on our friend, the epidermis, which is this, you can see. Like it, it totally is separated, right? Like, structurally, you can see the place where the dermis changes. And now we are the epidermis. So this is our place that we're going to hang out and learn about the specific cells, including melanocytes that are found here. Okay, so you ready to go explore the cells of the epidermis? Okay.


The number six small food idea that you can start from the comfort of your own home are cakes because for every occasion that you want to celebrate you always buy a cake and that's the reason why it is a very very high demand product selling cakes. The pros of selling cakes is that the margins can be very very high when and if you position yourselves accordingly. You could sell a cake as much as two to three hundred dollars however it really comes back down to how you position yourself.
