It's about to get where we want to be if we led the idealistic self-help books. This guy actually is not only well, extremely well. He's psychologically very acute in his observations and I personally learned a lot of useful personal insightful information so I'd like to share some. This passage is called on the three metamorphosis is that he pushes all of his ideas to their extreme so when he's purporting new you become who you are. A, he's doing it selfishly. He's elaborating on his own found path towards that aim and B, he's doing it radically, haphazardly or haphazardly. He's trying to become the greatest person he can be given our one life so he's not just a fine mediocrity here just to give you guys an idea of what you're getting into but nonetheless it's uplifting and encouraging I think. Three metamorphoses of the spirit I tell you.  There is much that is difficult for the spirit. Strong reverent spirit that would bear much. What is difficult? Asks the spirit that would bear much and kneels down like a camel wanting to be well loaded. What is most difficult? Oh heroes asks the spirit that would bear much. That I may take it upon myself and exalt in my strength. Is it not humbling oneself to wound one's haughtiness letting one's folly shine to mock one's wisdom or is it this parting from our cause when it triumphs climbing high mountains to tempt the tempter or is it this being sick and sending home and making friends with the death who never hear what you want or is it this stepping into filthy waters when they are the waters of truth and not repulsing frogs cold frogs and hot toads or is it this loving those who despise us and offering a hand to the ghost that would frighten us these most difficult things the spirit that would bear much takes upon itself like the camel that burdened speeds into the desert. Thus the spirit speeds into the desert only as desert however the second metamorphosis occurs in here he seeks out his last master he wants to fight him in his last God the ultimate victory he wants to fight with the great dragon who is the great dragon whom the spirit will no longer call Lord and God thou shalt is the name of the great dragon but the spirit of the lion says I will thou shalt lies in his way sparkling like gold an animal covered with scales and on every scale shines a golden thou shalt values thousands of years old shine on these scales and thus speaks the mightiest of all dragons quote all value of all things shines on me all value has long been created and I am all created value verily there shall be no more there shall be no more I will thus speaks the dragon why is there a need in the spirit for the lion why is not the beast of burden which renounces is and is reverent enough to create new values that even that even the lion cannot do but the creation of freedom for oneself for new creation that is within the power of the lion the creation of freedom for oneself and a sacred no even to duty for that my brothers the lion is needed to assume the right to new values that is the most terrifying assumption for a reverent spirit that would bear much verily to him it is a praying a matter for a beast of prey he once loved thou shalt as most sacred now he must find illusion and caprice even in the most sacred that freedom from his love may become his prey the lion is needed for such prey but say my brothers what can the child do that even the lion could not why must praying why must the praying line still become a child the child is innocence forgetting a new beginning a game a self-propelled wheel of first movement a sacred yes for the game of creation my brothers a sacred yes is needed spirit now calls spirit now wills his own will and he who had been lost to the world now conquers his own world of the three metamorphoses of the spirit I have told you how the spirit became a camel and the camel a lion and the lion and finally a child what does that even mean a camel passage Nietzsche goes on to list several items that may be considered among the most difficult so we essentially to grow we must bear extreme burdens we must ask ourselves what is most difficult and try to do that to push ourselves well past our own boundaries and thereby create new strengths and surpass our old ones and form ourselves become more hardened able we all know how our own assumptions about our abilities prevent us from doing something that we actually were capable of all along that's of course rings true to me so the camel must invite these burdens willingly which is so why this guy isn't just thought of as a charlatan this Nietzsche character here because his ideas modern psycho psych psychology is absolutely permeated with his ideas such as willfully and that's a very important point is not against your will but according using your own your own desired act on your own terms confronting your fears essentially as he said shaking the hand of the ghost that's that brightens you what Nietzsche is saying is that before one can become over man which is his famous the over man being his highest ideal his Napoleon Caesar but even beyond them people he holds in high regard Gerta essentially his ideal his is Jesus really one must battle with fear love truth death confusion there's for knowledge and all the other aspects of human existence and the camel embraces these challenges in the name of duty and nobility but another way the camel does not run from life or distract itself which is two major things that I'm very guilty of doing distract yourself in by taking longer than you should are being absorbed in something which is okay but lacking time management to know when to put it down or maybe when to pick it up it greets the camel greets life head on that embraces the difficulties that it presents out of a sense of duty in doing so the camel is humbled and strengthened as he said I suppose I should have marked it clearly I wasn't prepared is it not or one's arrogance letting one's folly shine to mock one's wisdom and his quote the biggest errors is not having the courage for ones of one's convictions but in fact I quote this on my Instagram to show how humble I am a fact do it is to have the wisest way is to have an attack on one's convictions because then you're surely much less probable to much less likely to be confident when in reality through suffering these challenges does the camel gain the strength and resilience necessary to attain the next spiritual metamorphosis which of course is now the lion and Nietzsche chose the line because as much as the Nazis used his work to interpret the lion the figure this powerful beast with a huge just a magnificent he often uses the phrase blonde beast but it's found that he actually often more meant the lion than actual just the power and you know the stealthiness the cunning so to speak of that represents the lion and instead of actually talking about the Aryan you know won't even mention that but he uses the imagery of the lion as an example of power and perhaps the the emergence of our new self after we've taken on these burdens and transformed our psyche and become like if you've ever done something really really difficult and you've taken it on willingly or maybe at some point throughout the process you you just commit to it and so at least at some point willingly once you complete that especially if it's successfully but depends on how difficult the task was relative to your perception of it you come out of it not the same person you come out of it shoulders back you you're a little more maybe proud and arrogant would be the negative aspects that have grown in you but positive aspects would be your confidence your perhaps your more your ability to predict your own your own abilities you know to have a more truthful and honest understanding of who you are and what you're capable of and and also to have more confidence to be able to stick your neck out and really push the limits of your abilities more because that's I find a very true psychological insight is that the less you try and the more you fail of course seems like common sense which is it's an issue I have with people who say that Jordan Peterson's book and his advice is just common sense and therefore it's not really of any value I think the most things the most true things are they seem common-sensical because of the very reason that they are in accordance with our personal experience and what could be more true than things that agree with your personal experience maybe you just didn't articulate them so I think a little bit of respect is in order there but nonetheless it is useful for me to remember that the more has Einstein says you just get on your bike and keep pedaling forward so as to not fall over the more you're going to be pushing your limits and the less likely you are to be afraid to push those limits because the only way you grow as a person is in fact to carry a burden to push yourself and then by consequence you you exit the other side of that new person they know you were all the things you were you're now all the things you were before plus some so it's no doubt that useful philosophy to go through life Nietzsche goes on to describe how the camel ultimately enters the loneliest desert before becoming a lion the only that the lonely desert metaphor can be interpreted as the camel having sought out and invited the struggles society that has produced it finds itself questioning everything the value of its society of its pursuits that it had hitherto concept of different differentiating your oneself from your origins is part of what this is talking about you know we need the society we need our our family our friends our community our nation our species and the history the deep history involved in that to give us an initial sense of identity and something that really hold on to but you don't truly grow as a person and become an individual until you take on burdens and responsibilities test your limits creased your strengths and refine your skills at which point you can turn around intellectually or question the very pursuits that you've been told to question I honestly didn't intend it but this is referencing Jordan Pearson quite a bit I actually it's just that it's so in line because he was so influenced by Nietzsche and his idea of the society being the masculine father of patriarch in the the unhindered anarchic chaos of mother nature their yin and yang you know they're not one is not better than the other one is not worse than the other they're equal equally powerful ideas that are mutually needed to balance each other out and the idea of a stagnant state his idea of saving your father from the belly of the whale like Jonah or Pinocchio is grounded in the fact that the state is a very thing that defines where nature begins everything outside of that is chaos in nature and we are needed to update the state and it's a very crucial concept the fact that we rely on the state to develop and form us but it's up to us to once we've reached a form formative period and we've assimilated all the the best qualities of the state that we can then it's up to us to go out gather information for ourselves to individualize us and bring that information back to update the state so that the state it can be as cordons with reality as it can be because the you know I think his idea was that the Nazis were the extreme of a non-updated state so many people were scared to question the state that they were grown up in that the state just ran away on a incredibly negative feed to tyrannical feedback loop and it was blind it was overly orderly it had a clear set of defined values that it did not want broken so this idea of the lion is that one becomes so strong that you you relied on the state to grow and develop yourself but now you are a true individual and you need to you're at this point you are competent competent enough because you've pushed your limits enough to to essentially not define your own value not create your own values but be able to discern excuse me be able to actually distinguish discern your own values the values you out of the values that you were told to value in the highest team as a young youth you can now choose which ones ring more true to you based on your plethora of experience desert can be seen as a place of existential crisis for Nietzsche such universal virtues and absolute purpose do not exist is forced to confront the possibility and thus the camel becomes a lion so while Nietzsche was thought to believe that such universal virtues and you know absolute purposes don't exist that's where Jordan Peterson differs and Carl Jung very much so elaborated on Nietzsche's ideas as far as I understand they both thought that Nietzsche because he died when he was really young his fifties and they thought that he didn't didn't get a chance to develop and mature a lot of his profound and genius ideas but Peterson is so religion being encapsulating importance actually because of its ability to he thinks that it tells you how to act and perhaps religion is the most ancient state state organized structure cultural structure that we must continually update so it's a fine line between the sacredness of religion and its core ideas and the ability of people who of course own confident confident but competent and well too and that's really you just have to be confident enough experience to be able to update something as profound and crosses that there's so much room for us to grow and so many of us don't and so many of us don't pursue it to its ultimate ends and he thinks that if we did stay persistent and didn't just reach a plateau and get comfortable etc if we did honestly keep pursuing our goals and our self-development and who knows really life the experience of life could really be and to me that's that's in line with thinking about how brave and courageous and intelligent thoughtful and creative our ancestors must have been 200 150 10 000 years ago and also extrapolating out into the future what you know where where are we gonna take that trajectory and it's up to us it literally is each one of us every day i think i was watching blood diamond the other night i wish i remembered the exact quote but you know of course i'm perceiving everything through the lens of what i'm currently reading the philosophy i'm currently learning but it did ring true and it did align with it in a quite a few spots of that movie but the the reporter lady who's out there trying to you know prevent the mass genocide of these african people which are which is fueled by the um the the prophets created by these blood diamonds anyways her point was that you know was that when our when we get daunted by the fact that there's these huge looming um waves of of events and phenomena in the world and they seem to be overall negative you know there's there's so many bad things that happen every day there's also so many good things that happen every day there's so many people out there doing good things so i don't know i i butchered that one so this actually is not the quote i was talking about but it's one of them that i was referring to and is that uh leo leo in the movie says so you think because your intentions are good they'll spare you huh that the the village teacher who was a good intentioned guy said my heart always told me that people are inherently good my experience suggests otherwise but what about you mr rger and your long career as a journalist he was posing as a journalist would you say people are mostly good he says no they're just people they're just people the teacher says exactly it's what they do that makes them good or bad when of love even in a bad man can give meaning to a life none of us knows whose path will lead us to god as it's you know is anything really ever as black and white low resolution as all that people do negative things all the time but uh culture and the waves of historic events aren't they all but just a series of droplets of individual actions every day and they just somehow in a weird way form swells and ocean currents in tides that ebb and flow so back to back to the camels transition into a line when the camel discovers that universal truth and virtue may not exist it has two choices it can reject life as meaningless and probably commit suicide or something or can claim its own freedom and create its own meaning which is uh the overman the camel must obviously do the latter do you descend in the hell and chaos or do you ascend to do this the camel must destroy the largest barrier to truth or to true and true true freedom and virtue if by tradition and society this is what niches great dragon represents the camel had been a slave to the dragon inviting life's challenges but always living in accordance with the values imposed upon it from without the dragon of the thou shalt it can also be seen simply as representing everyone who would try to tell someone else how to live their life camel must reject this dragon of tradition and commands and um but it cannot but it cannot in its current duty loving form thus it must become a lion its trials have allowed it to attaining enough strength to become a lion you can't just do a couple push-ups and be a lion or just ask one girl out you gotta you have to live a boundary pushing life and just by definition that is what will create a lion the lion symbolizes courage tenacity disillusionment or even rage um unbridled passion only in this state is the spirit able to deliver the sacred the no and uh the sacred no represents the utter rejection of external control and traditional values everything imposed by other individual society churches governments families and all forms of propaganda must be denied in an empowered roar and that's uh that's an important part you can say no but is it gonna look like you mean it to the other person and that's the real key to um knowing i guess you're the lion is uh your conviction in certain things so you uh you want to have the courage of your convictions over man would be able to have the courage of convictions based on its really deep internal experience yet be open enough walking that line of yin and yang carefully enough between chaos and order that he would be open minded to be able to recognize when he's wrong so the third and final metamorphosis is is i think the refreshing concept of becoming a child because most i feel like most less lesser stories or or philosophers just it's very insightful isn't just a powerful as the open-mindedness the be represented by a child after this line delivers its sacred no sacred because it's the most meaningful to him to deliver it it's an unavoidable path to self-creation and manifestation and meaning famous reoccurring theme in each's work after this line is delivered the sacred no the spirit still must make one more transformation to become the over man that's becoming a child so what can a child do that even the lion could not do why must the praying lion still become a child this child is innocent and forgetting a new beginning a game a self-propelled wheel a first movement a sacred yes for the game of creation my brothers a sacred yes is needed the spirit now wills his own will and he who had been lost to the world now conquers his own world so Nietzsche holds that the lion must again transform in order to forget spirit has undergone much duress and turmoil in its transformations and but it must cleanse its mind of the past through the sacred yes the child affirms the moment affirms uncertainty affirms the flux of life the child becomes a self-propelled wheel just as life can be viewed in the same terms the child elects to roll with life ultimately for Nietzsche the pure creation arises from this state of play can achieve a child mind a mind immersed in the moment filled with wonder and playfulness his own will create his own virtue and thus create his own reality and undergoing this final metamorphosis the spirit overcomes itself conquers the world and reaches the state of liberation the overman so in understanding the overman real quick the important thing to notice that Nietzsche was like most philosophers a voracious truth seeker the objection the objection of uh i think that there are no universally good values and we can create our own values which of course could lead to a very chaotic anarchic road is a utilitarian or consequentialist reading of Nietzsche is you know the greatest good greatest common good which i'm no philosopher i'm no even i've taken one little introductory course in college so i don't understand any of the deep psychological underpinnings psychological that's fine weird slip logical underpinnings of the great philosophic schools of thought but i think i know enough now to reject the utilitarian view which is the greatest good for the most people because the at least you know my mom maybe you have a good argument for it is that it one of its ultimate conclusions could be that the greatest good would be for us all to be equal and mediocre equal in our mediocrity and i don't think that's a life worth living so for Nietzsche this objection would have been yet another example of mankind attempting to impose arbitrary moral standards onto a universe in which none objectively exist he was less interested in the imaginary moral constructs of mankind than discovering the actual truth of existence so yeah people might think that he was uh you know a cold in his theories of overcoming and and overcoming yourself and um praising at points dominations of other people who are less powerful than you that's of course grossly over simplifying his argument but you've put that in the context of one of his last known actions as an actual human being in the world was to go insane as he's trying to uh save a horse from being beaten in the last decade of his life which of course tells us that he had a lot of compassion a lot of compassion so the uh person i'm reading here says it's possible to see Nietzsche's child a playful being in touch with its own deep down nature as uncannily similar to a realized Taoist or Zen Buddhist there's a Zen saying that quote nothing is left to you at this moment maybe nirvana but to have a good laugh which is uh meant to refer to the moment after one has attained satori or enlightenment oh for the over man essentially to wrap it up pain is necessary for positive transformation and should be embraced it's true for me i haven't experienced enough pain i know that in order to liberate ourselves we must wage war against troll by an external authority um it's true and just that steel sharpened steel and when you have a good argument even if someone wins it makes you look like a fool if you're humble enough to be able to recognize that then maybe you could get rid of that dead bark burn it off that was clearly not working for you and make room a new perspective you just need that you had an incomplete set of ideas and you need to re fortify them yes and you will grow we must cultivate great courage strength and audacity in order to truly sever our puppet strings and lastly our goal should be to affirm life and dance with it


I'm at the Wild Earth Party! The new Earth Party of the future, which we can bring to the present. People dress up with a lot of paint, with the hair all over the place and wild hair. There's a huge array of new colors that we haven't seen so far, but that exists. Believe me, they exist. Everybody's making their own rhythm, and together it makes this orchestra of all this abundant music that you've never heard of before. I'd invite friends from all over, bring them all together from across the Earth. There's representatives from as far as Australia, Africa, Brazil, the States, Asia and Europe. Every person you meet is in your tribe. It's a party, but we're just all quiet for a moment, listening to the birds. Everybody will be doing dancing in their own ways, in their own moves. It would be like a cat just sort of flailing around and not really knowing what to do. It's going to be a distributed ledger of dance. So you see Mikey, I'm only doing this because you're saying Britney Spears is baby one more time, okay? I'm dancing with my grandma and with secondary geography teacher. And I'm dancing with all of you. And when magic happens, our vibration and frequency to Mother Earth, Papatuanuku, will hear the messages of all of us being the true Kaitiaki we are.


heading out to Dallas we're going over the cowboy schedule for this upcoming season let's get into it week one that's a tough draw Tampa Bay they're gonna lose that one then they've got Cincinnati coming to town i'm banking on a Super Bowl hangover i think Dallas wins that then they beat the Giants and the Commanders then they'll have two losses against the Rams and Eagles and then they'll beat the Lions and Bears going into the bye week then they're gonna lose to both the Packers and the Vikings but then they're gonna reel off five straight wins Giants Colts Texans Jaguars and at homing against the Eagles they win all five of those then week 17 at Tennessee they're gonna lose that but then win week 18 against the Commanders that gives us a record of 11 and 6 that's my prediction


War costs Ukraine about US$54 billion per year. Supporting the Ukrainian Armed Forces and confronting Russia in the war it started, costs Ukraine about US$2 trillion per year. Ukrainian Prime Minister Denis Shmihal said this at a conference of Ukrainian ambassadors. In fact, support for the Armed Forces and the war cost Ukraine about US$2 trillion. This is more than the revenue part of a peacetime budget. Shmihal said. According to him, in peacetime, the revenue part of Ukraine's budget amounted to US$1.3 trillion. Currently, the state survives thanks to financial support from partners as well as grants and loans. We lost about 30% of our economy and enterprises. We lost 3.5 million jobs. In the first year of the war, we lost 29.5% of our GDP. This is less than expected. Businesses adapted and continue to adapt. This year, we expect even a slight increase compared to last year. Shmihal added. He noted that it was also possible to increase Ukraine's gold and foreign exchange reserves to an all-time high. The national bank currently has US$39 billion. This year, we reduced the inflation rate to 12.8% in annual terms. You understand what inflation is in your countries. You can compare. Shmihal said, addressing the audience. Shmihal said earlier that in the first half of 2023, Ukraine's state budget received more than UAH 600 billion Harunias with 672 billion Harunias allocated for the army.

Hello everybody welcome back another AI video in this one we're an AI human generator that's right you can now create humans basically with the kind of features and the kind of look that you want and very interestingly this one provides a UI this is the first one that is not purely prompt based let me show you what the heck I'm talking about so I'll put a link in the description below to try it out but here we are on AI human generator aka generated dot photos and look at this I'm just going to click this button here and we got some you know we've got some interesting looking humans I believe this uses this does use stable diffusion I'm not sure which model but I don't believe it's a fine-tuned model but anyways let's get in and get rolling so the first thing you'll notice here is you can now select the age so I've got it selected at an infant but let's say I want young adults I don't know I can do that I can click on the update button and it will go ahead and process it but let's go a little further down the rabbit hole because we can make a whole bunch of other changes for example actually that's not too bad if I wanted to select the gender we can do one of the one two three genders only three genders I didn't know I don't know how many there are but there's only three genders in this one here so female male non-binary and then if we go down a little further here we can select skin tone and this gets quite yeah it gets quite interesting so you can get a porcelain skin tone whatever that is a golden skin tone a caramel skin tone okay mahogany dark mahogany I like that let's go with that and then every time you make a new selection you can go ahead and just start changing it so right now this lady that we're creating is Turkish but if I want her to be Ugandan I'll just change it I'll click on update or I can just keep going through and changing things as I see fit update human we want her to be athletic let's say and here's the very interesting part you can actually select a pose so I don't know maybe we want okay we want this this kind of seductive looking pose I suppose and then here we go we could select a hairstyle and again I mean you can always do this with prompt generators typing in exactly what you want but this has a very fun UI that allows you to make some changes and we'll go with red here but before I go on that I can add something down here so this is where it gets interesting so I could say this is kind of where the prompt goes and it's at the bottom here so it's not super easy to see but I don't know maybe wearing a blue dress something like that freckles whatever you want it to say and then finally the last thing I'll show you and this is optional is you can actually upload a face so if you have a face in mind for example if I go into my finder and I go to my pictures I've got this picture here that I just created I'll drag and drop this lady's face on it and then it's it's a large picture but it's going to actually just find the face and then it will go ahead and a lot see it's done it it's done a great job actually and there we go I'm going to click on update human so we went through all those different steps there we we you know we changed the UI there the UI is there for us to go ahead and change we got dark mahogany we changed the ethnicity we changed the age we uploaded our own image as a reference and then presto I mean this is the first crack at it but not too bad not going to lie so this is how you go ahead and create AI generated humans inside of generated photos I'll put a link in the description below let me know what you think thanks for watching


Good afternoon, my name is Jim Tassie, I'm the Assistant Director of the Westwood Coalition of Maine and I'm happy to be here in Congress Square to talk about the City of Portland's new repair stations and parking. We don't have parking to show you here, but there are three other repair stations scattered around the city. There's one here in Congress Square, there's one at the Metro Pulse station on Elm Street and there's another one just east of India Street on the eastern prom. Both the parking and the repair stands are the result of an effort between the City of Portland and the Portland downtown which got a community development block grant and was able to purchase the repair stands and a number of bicycle parking corrals which you'll see around the city as well. The entire effort is intended to support multimodal transportation in the city. If you've driven a car in the city lately you may have noticed that congestion can be a problem sometimes, finding parking can be difficult and the city is interested in trying to encourage people to come into the city another way. There's a campaign going on right now called Drive Less, Do More that is really trying to show that you can get around the city without a car using a bicycle, transit buses or just you know using your feet and walking and in many cases any of those options is faster than actually getting in your car and struggling with a parking spot. Each of the city's repair stands includes a pump so you can put a little air in your tires if you need to, it includes a rack that you can hang your bike on, you can hang it from the top tube or you can also hang it from the seat post. I like the top tube in this case because I want the bike level for what we're going to be doing a little later. The tools that come on the stand include a 32 millimeter headset wrench and a 15 millimeter cone wrench and these are for adjusting the headset on this bike and as well as potentially adjusting a loose hub bearing. We have two tire levers so if you needed to remove your tire to get your tube whether replace the tube or patch it these will help you to work a tight tire bead off. We have two box wrenches in the most common sizes that are needed for bicycles so this has an 8, 9, 10 and 11 set of wrenches so that'll take care of tightening most of the the nuts that you might need to tighten on a bicycle. We have a classic straight screwdriver and a Phillips head screwdriver and we have a complete Allen key set that includes larger sizes for folks who have a bolted crank. You're able to torque those on a little bit more using the big guys and these smaller ones which are already getting used I see are used for tightening some of the spots on the bicycle that have hex keys.

Nice rookie jumbo relic, it's for Kevin and the Orioles. Big old patch.  That is for the Yankees and the Yankees are a number block team so that goes to Yankees 5. We've got Rodolfo Castro. Rookie jersey and autograph, 79 out of 99. Good looking autograph. They're a nice penmanship. Going to Chris Butler and the Pirates. We've got Andre Jackson, 11 out of 25. I'm sorry, Miss Jackson. Ooh, I am for real. Goes to my Dodgers, Ryan. The Dodgers. He might get some stars. He might get a starting job, we'll see, or a relief job somewhere. They should move the MLB draft to the all-star rig, give it some attention. Also holding Kansas City. They did. Wait, are you joking? They did move the draft to the all-star rig. 30 out of 49, Matt Brash, RPA for Seattle, it's a nice one. Seattle 0, it's going to be for CvH. And nice Tyler McGill, 22 out of 25 stars and stripes. Three-color patch and autograph. And is the all-star game in Kansas City next year? Are you trolling me, J-Lo? Are you trolling me, bro? I need to get, this card is too thick for top-loaders, let me get some slider boxes.  Yeah, I thought they moved the draft, or was that only a one-time thing? Well, I actually don't know, is that a permanent move, do you think? The Tyler McGill, really nice-looking RPA, going to the number block, Mets. So that'll go to Mets 2, and that'll be for CvH. And we've got Fernando Tetiz, Jr. 22 out of 99. Yeah, I mean, you could run a schedule for Major League Baseball, J-Lo. Yeah, they did move the MLB draft to the all-star break. And Hall of Fame Materials. Pi? PA? It's got to be PA trainer, right? Can't have his names on, Pi. That goes to Pittsburgh, that'll be for Chris Butler. All right, and on the bottom here is Helio Ramos. Echlar's choice, Jersey and autograph, 15 out of 49. It goes to Ed P, Giant's last-spot mojo. 70% of the time, last-spot mojo hits 100% of the time. Yeah, looks like the 2023 MLB draft will be in July, in Seattle. ESPN will broadcast the first round. So I'm assuming the all-star game's in Seattle next year? It sure is. Box two. Field gear, 52 out of 99. That is Otto Lopez for Toronto. That's going to be for David and the Blue Jays. I keep wanting to say Texas, but I think Glenn Otto is in Texas. So both autos are on T teams who are blue. So it gets me a little confused. 86 out of 99. Pinstripe, Stars and Stripes, and the Pinstripe. That's Alec Bohm for David and Philadelphia. David D. We got Reggie Jackson, and this is October, 20 out of 49 for the A's. Ed P with the A's. Jake Bowers, 92 out of 99 from the show 24. That's going to go to Cleveland, right? Yeah, David D. Cleveland. We got Chris Rodriguez, three out of 10. Autograph for the Halos. David D. with the Angels. He's heating up. He's on fire. Cedric Mullins, 98 out of 99. Clutch Factor, Jersey and Autograph. That'll be for Kevin and the Orioles. And I got Spencer Strider, 67 out of 99. Strider, the Ranger from the North. Going to Jared and the Brazer, if you're into that sort of thing.

Okay, we're back. We're live with think tech here on a given Friday with a special show more, much more on medicine with Dr. Sarah Park of the Department of Health, state epidemiologist. And it's an important show because we have important events happening around the world on coronavirus. Welcome to the show Dr. Park. It's great to have you here. We appreciate you taking the time off and what must be a very busy time for you to discuss this with us and the public. Thanks for having me. Yeah.  And the world was reacting in every which way, articles in all the newspapers and so forth and every single media. And now it seems to have subsided. There's not as much. You don't hear all that emergent talk. And I wonder, you know, what that means, maybe it means that the media cycle is over and it's going to get quiet until the next remarkable thing, or maybe there's good news on the horizon. What do you think. Actually, that's news to me that there's a lull, because it seems like it's just to constantly, there's something constantly coming out so that would be news to me I don't think that we're out of the woods yet by any means. What, when will we be out of the woods me from a medical point of view from an epidemiological point of view. I mean, you have two possibilities. One is a vaccine is developed but everybody says that'll take a year. And thanks to the Chinese for sharing the genome with us because it helps to have the genome in order to make a vaccine. They may have done other things wrong but that was a good thing if they shared the vaccine, or rather the genome and the other possibilities that burns itself out as all epidemics ultimately do. Which do you think will happen first and how will we know when we're out of the woods on this, Dr. I, you know, I have no idea which one will actually go first but I think it's important to stress that the outbreak in China is still ongoing that there's new disease being identified and they're actually 27 different countries now is my understanding and you know, everyone's monitoring the situation very closely. At this point the World Health Organization has deemed it not yet a pandemic in that they feel that pretty much all the disease activity can or most of it can be still traced back directly or indirectly to China. And I guess gather what they're waiting for it is to see that they start to see disease that isn't directly or directly traced back to China. My understanding is that they feel that the tactic that the world has to employ right now is to try to contain the virus in China. But there is always a distinct possibly I mean this is a respiratory pathogen. So it is transmitted primarily through what we call respiratory droplets, basically when you cough and sneeze. And if you think about the regular flu and how quickly that spreads during the traditional flu season which we're in the middle of, then it's not really a stretch then to think about how easily this virus could potentially take hold and, you know, end up being more widespread beyond China's borders so it is concerned worldwide still. You know that's what I meant when I said we're not out of the woods yet and that everyone's still leaning forward still monitoring the situation closely. In the meantime, many countries, including ours are instituting travel bans and other measures screening procedures to essentially help with containing the virus in China but also to slow down, basically create a bottleneck for any potential introduction into our country. I think it's important for people to understand that screening at the airports is not an absolute control measure and that we all recognize that there is still the potential for individuals still still to be infected and come into our country, but it is a way to slow it down and slow it down enough so that our prevention measures can effectively control any introduction and prevent it from spreading further than potentially even that one person may be just a small cluster. And those measures are really those things that you hear us talking about every flu season, every time there's a respiratory disease outbreak, or, you know, anything related to really any infectious disease. But, you know, it's stay home when you're sick. You know, I think that has to really be the primary message right now for all of us across the globe. As well as, especially in Hawaii is that we need to really practice staying home when we're sick. And that means not going to work, not going to school, not getting on the bus, not going shopping, not running errands, you know, really stay home until we're well and getting our employers to enforce that, so to speak. And that would go a long way, honestly, towards preventing anything from happening here or anywhere else, that in addition to hand washing.  If we can all, as a community, practice these simple infection prevention measures, then we could go a long way in terms of preventing anything from, you know, being introduced then spreading more widely in our community. Drilling down on some of that, Dr. Park, so I'm home. And that's the wise thing for me to do if I feel I have some kind of respiratory thing happening. But my family may be home also. How do I prevent my family from getting infected and then going out into the community and delivering it, you know, second hearsay kind of way. Alright, so to the extent possible, if you have any respiratory disease like flu, flu is a great example, right. And again, we're in the middle of flu season and flu disease and flu deaths still cause much, much, much more illness in this country than this novel coronavirus, which is not widely circulating because there are no indications of it really circulating in our communities at this time, although we continue to monitor because again it is respiratory disease. But the flu is a great example. If you think about when someone in your family is sick with the flu, some things that we have to think about are exactly those prevention measures, especially particularly actually washing your hands. Because those respiratory droplets are so key in how we get infected.   So good hand washing and then being mindful of, you know, not touching our face. So basically the mucus membranes are what are that lining inside our mouths, inside our nose, our eyes. Those mucus membranes are what's susceptible to being infected essentially from not just this novel virus but the flu from any pathogen. And so we really want to try to avoid touching our face with unwashed hands. And that is probably one of the hardest things for all of us to do and myself included. You know, it's something we all need to really think about, really consciously think about. And that would probably be one really effective way if we could really prevent that from doing that, prevent ourselves from self inoculating, if you will, with your pathogen, whether it's the novel coronavirus or flu or other pathogens.  You're going to transmit it. So I think you have to, this event teaches us that we have to see the world perhaps in a different way. We have to see every surface out there as a potential point of infection. And that includes being at home. So I also hear you saying that even if you are at home, you don't feel well, you're not going to go to the office, you're not going to work today, you're not going to go out of the community and you're going to be with your family. And you're infected and your family is not affected. It is not a foregone conclusion that you will spread this disease or any infection like this to the people at home. You can prevent that even at home. Am I right? Right, right. To the extent possible. I mean, we also recognize that some people may not realize they're ill with this.  You know, you tend to sort of try and shoulder on and not, you know, not go see your doctor and so you don't know that what you have is could be, you know, the flu or anything else. And so you may not be as careful or your loved ones may not realize you're sick, you know, there could be any number of reasons. But this is where I would argue that we all need to be really mindful. And as soon as we start to feel ill to start taking those precautions and even before being starting to feel ill, we need to make these kind of prevention measures second nature, so not touching our face, washing our hands, cleaning surfaces. And on that issue, I just want to mention that, you know, these are, this is what we think it, we think it's a coronavirus like any other coronavirus and that it's not likely to be hanging out on services for hours and hours. I mean, it is susceptible to environmental, you know, sort of stress as I suppose if you could call it that.  That's how we normally infect ourselves with these. But you do have some personal control over it. So, to be back to the home where I live with my family, I'm not feeling well I some kind of respiratory thing. It sounds like it's a good idea to keep the house really clean all those surfaces clean and stress out to regular sanitation agents it's you don't need anything special to clean surfaces for this it's not norovirus.  But I mean backing up a little, you know, we're talking about, hopefully something that won't happen down the line. And because we're talking in the theoretical of like, when and if this virus is actually circling circulating the community. Right now it isn't as far as we can tell, but it is and that's the ideal moment where I mean this is the ideal time when we should be practicing the prevention measures now, before we're aware of anything because we make it second nature, you know, and we practice these measures, then it's makes it even less likely that we'll see, you know widespread circulated disease. I mean if you imagine flu, flu, right, our flu season right now, the traditional flu season that we're in the middle of. Imagine how much less disease there would be here in Hawaii on in the nation. If people stayed home definitely stayed home when they were sick you know didn't go to work or school. If they actually did wash their hands appropriately every time that they, you know, coughed and sneeze or they handled something and that they didn't touch their hands, their touch their hands to their face.  So, I mean, if you just imagine if people did that on a regular basis, I would, I would guess that we wouldn't really see a lot of flu out there, you know, so it's something to think about. Yeah, and especially going forward where these kinds of infections we may see them on a regular basis, depending on how the world works, but in a large complex world, it could happen again, like SARS, like MERS and now this one they could be something else next year. Dr. Sarah Park, a state epidemiologist at the Department of Health, we're going to take a short break, we'll be right back and we're going to ask Dr. Park. What's the difference between coronavirus and flu?  What do you do then? We'll be right back. My name is Mitch Ewan, I'm from the Hawaii Natural Energy Institute, and I'm the host of Hawaii, the state of clean energy. We're on every Wednesday at four o'clock, and we hope that we have interesting guests who talk to us about various energy things that are happening in Hawaii all the way from PV to windmills to hydrogen, most of my heart, electric buses and electric vehicles. So please dial in every Wednesday at four o'clock on Hawaii, the state of clean energy, aloha. Okay, we're back with Dr. Sarah Park, state epidemiologist at the Department of Health, talking about, you know what, coronavirus, the new coronavirus. So Dr. Park, I just wonder what is the difference in terms of the, what do you call it, infectability, that's probably not a medical word, of this virus and the standard household annual flu? Well, first off, I'm glad you qualified and said this is a new coronavirus, because there are common, what we call common coronaviruses that, you know, that actually are regular laboratory tests.  And it happens to come back positive and says positive coronavirus. It is not this coronavirus. It is not the novel coronavirus. There is currently no clinically available, commercially available lab tests that can detect the novel coronaviruses. Common coronaviruses we know about usually cause more of a cold like symptoms. So it's kind of lumped together with like the rhinoviruses and sort of the symptoms it causes. But this is very different. And it is different also from the flu. The flu viruses are well known to circulate, at least in most of the rest of the world, seasonally. You know, the traditional flu season being from May of, I'm sorry, September of one year to May of the next year. For Hawaii, we see flu year round. It causes basically aches and pains, fever, cough, you know, can occasionally lead to secondary bacterial infections.  Some people, unfortunately, like those in the extremes of age, those with underlying illness, you know, pregnant women can be at risk for more severe disease and unfortunately death. And this season we've seen quite a few of those nationally. Still, it's still around. This novel coronavirus is something that's exactly what the name says it's new. It's not been in the human world. It's presumed to have crossed over very recently from the animal world, which animal we're not yet sure it's not been discovered. It, but it has its origins in the animal world and then mutated and came over. Any time you have a new virus, these, such as this one just like with SARS, MERS-CoV, 2009 H1N1, you know, basically when you have a new virus, what that means is none of us have immunity against them. We've never seen it. So our immune systems are like babies immune immune systems in that we've never seen it. So we're all equally susceptible. The interesting thing right now is that some of the data coming out about you asked about infectability or we call that the R0 in epidemiology.  How many more people will that one person infect? We know for flu, the R0 is about just about one. So for every person who has flu, they'll most likely infect one more person. So we have some background. I think Ebola, I want to say Ebola is probably around four or five or something like this. I can't quite recall, but measles, which is the granddaddy of the, you know, infectious diseases. It has an R0 of somewhere around 18. So measles can infect up to 18 susceptible individuals. So that's coming out right now. There's been one paper that suggested that the R0, and I have to caution it is still way early, you know, in this sort of understanding of this new virus. But there was one paper that suggested that based on the available data the R0 for this virus might be closer to just a little bit above two, so that everyone, everyone person can infect at least two individuals. And SARS was somewhere around that four or five. So it basically what it means is the severity of illness of this virus is likely to cause and the scope of the infection is probably somewhere between the flu and SARS. But we're just not sure exactly where it is. And again. What about lethality? What about lethality? Is this more lethal than ordinary garden variety flu? It is still very early in trying to understand, you know, this virus, the data right now suggests that it does potentially carry a high what we call mortality, but not for everyone for certain groups. It has been interesting, the data that's coming out suggesting that somewhat older individuals, not necessarily elderly, but somewhat older individuals and those with underlying illness may be at more risk. But again, it's early. We don't know. So mortality, you know, if you recall with SARS, the deaths that were reported with SARS, it took several months before those deaths were starting to sort of be identified or tend to occur. And so if you had, you know, asked in the first couple months, what's the mortality for SARS, you would have, you would have a very different number compared with four, five, six months later. By the same token, if it is, if the disease doesn't actually cause as many deaths, you know, and everyone is just really hyper aware in the beginning, it could be that we see the death rate sort of level and that mortality rate isn't as high as we thought. Some people get this disease and they don't really even show it. Some people get this disease is very mild and they get over it. But if you are, if you are, but you're talking about asymptomatic infection, and actually, I think there was a paper in the New England Journal that a bunch of German authors claimed that an individual with asymptomatic, no symptoms right infection infected for other individuals and of course everyone became very concerned because the assumption is that for any disease that asymptomatic infection probably plays a very small role in transmission, if any. And so there was a lot of concern until most recently, a few of those same German authors came forward and actually admitted that they had neglected to talk with the actual, actually talked to the individual, an interview the individual who was quote unquote asymptomatic had subsequently found that that individual was not asymptomatic actually had aches and pains and fever and had been taking what, you know, paracetamol, which is acetaminophen or Tylenol for their symptoms so seemed like they had no symptoms but actually did. And that that makes more sense that they infected someone else. So it is, you know, every disease has what I like to say a spectrum of severity.  We don't know where this disease is going to fall with stars we presume is more shifted towards a severe. Yeah. Again, it's a new virus. So we're all susceptible which doesn't doesn't speak well for, you know, being, you know, the case that we're likely to see. I suppose, you know, I mean, suppose, as the newspaper has said, ultimately there's a fair chance we're going to see it pop up here. Simply because we have people coming from infected countries and quarantine is only so long and for you know it as an infected person. The quarantine and self monitoring is quite generous. It's not that that is not the issue. The issue is other, you know, potentially other ways it gets here that you know people who are not recognized and potentially, you know, not in monitoring or in quarantine. We don't know exactly the incubation phase that that phase when when you're infected or exposed to when you actually start developing symptoms. But based on no data for all coronaviruses. That's where that 14 days comes from because that is the maximum incubation period recognized for most coronaviruses. So that's not, it's not likely that someone who's been appropriately monitoring quarantine is going to transmit to others. It's more Assume for whatever reason. Where I recognize before they were put in monitoring our team, and maybe, you know, transmitted someone else but that really is immaterial. It's more about, you know, we need to focus on the prevention measures that I was describing earlier and really about staying home when you're sick about washing your hands appropriately about making sure right now. Let's assume for a moment that you're that you've taken those steps. But nevertheless, you have a respiratory ailment that won't go away and you are getting very concerned about it and you think maybe maybe you're having a bad day and you got it. You somehow got it right here in Hawaii. It's possible. So at that point, you're not sure. You don't know what to do. You stay home, but you feel threatened increasingly. What do you do? Do you ambilon down to the hospital?   That wouldn't sound like a good idea. No, no, there are no quarantine centers.  More likely issues you've got the flu and it is a good idea to call ahead to your clinician, your healthcare provider to sort of let them know about your concerns and schedule appointment as needed. If you are really having that shortness of breath and really having emergency, then you need to call, you know, obviously the emergency medical services folks, but, you know, right now the risks are for travelers from China. That's what we are looking at. That's what we're working collaborating very closely with our federal partners. And those people, it's very critical for healthcare workers. That's a very critical question to ask of anyone who comes in with what we call a febrile respiratory illness is where have they traveled in the last 14 days. So if we're in China and specifically Dubai province, then obviously we'd have a concern and we'd have to consider this particular infection. But for everyone else, we're seeing plenty of flu activity by the way we're seeing an increase of the way we are, as I mentioned, repeatedly we're in the middle of flu season, the traditional flu season. I, you know, before all the attention on what's going on in China, if you recall back in early December or November. There was a lot of media coverage over the fact that the mainland was suffering one of the worst flu seasons on record. And suddenly everyone switched gears to cover what was going on in China. Well, I'm here to tell you that just because the media is suddenly shifted focus does not mean that flu disease suddenly went away. The facilities on the mainland as well as here are still seeing plenty of flu and the way flu presents with the symptoms, you know, that fever cough aches and pains. It's going to be very similar to this virus and, you know, when this virus is, you know, finally actually in US communities. And you can imagine if we're not vaccinated, vaccinated against flu, if we're not practicing our good infection prevention measures. I mean, then we're going to be, it's going to be very problematic. We're going to see this incredible burden on our health care facilities, trying to manage not only this now new concern but also existing flu disease. Well, thank you, Dr. Park. Dr. Sarah Park, State Epidemiologist at the Department of Health. There's so many more questions and I hope we can catch up with you again. I know it's going to be busy for you while this is still in the newspapers and so. But I hope we can catch up again and keep current on the status not only in the world but in Hawaii. Thank you so much.
