All right good morning separate traders welcome on back here this Thursday morning December 1st top of the month to everyone Here inside the live trading room Brian Andrea. We have Grant. We have Chuck Jim. We have Renzo We had Leida here a moment ago We had John Wayne and all of us just here inside the separate room great to see you all here Of course if you're joining us on social media Facebook live or YouTube you could tell already This is not the voice of one Fausto Puglisi. I always like to say I just got the hot tag from him to do the meeting a moment ago He's on a call and he'll be good to go for all of us inside the live trading room at least by the time the market opens But you know, I just had to tag in and just do this meeting for him. So with that said folks We have a lot to talk about the spy ended up having a nice little pop after eight o'clock Some financial information came out initial jobless claims personal spending US personal income I just in terms of just what the number is versus the expectation was and Ended up having a little pop early on but with that this arm ed stock at least to begin pre-market ended up having a nice Pop after the eight o'clock move ended up breaking back over three led to a nice 50 cent move for the most part But after that initial squeeze, I will say this stock, you know, nice trend off the lows here That that's easy to say in hindsight But perhaps one would have wanted this to have made an even better sharper move in that consolidated trend up So, you know, just history could repeat itself, right? Not just in the sense of this dumping off right now I mean, hey, this could dump off lower after the open, but it could also be really choppy too. So, you know, hey, the stock is up big Let's see if there's any news on this trade if anything, so I'm just on Benzinga pro really quickly to begin and I don't have any real news on the stock arm ed RM ED Nothing really since I think like November 14th earnings That's not too good. That's like that's like that's like kind of a red flag. So, you know, with that in mind at least You know, you want to be careful We've seen stocks pump off of no news in the past But if there's no fundamental catalyst for it Then there might not be enough Attraction from buyers to continue to you know jump in or even just to squeeze up a little bit more So with that, I mean, hey, this is turning down now off the highs I just be a little wary of that. I'll put this on our list to begin probably not near the top though By the end of it all really quick I just want to make sure I delete a post inside the chat board here folks We want to protect you. This is a public chat board. You never know who's in here So to say right, you know, we're all family and I feel like all of us here are great and with great intention But said someone like post like their phone number in the public chat board trying to protect you We'll make sure we reach out to you Jai no problem there with that though Warren inside the chat board as I'm just still looking he says lost four cents on our med right now Yeah, hey four cents, you know, hey, this thing's slipping back down pretty quickly So that's not a bad trade but with that in mind though You don't want to jump back in and let's just kind of follow this trend off the highs here for right now All right, but with that though, there's a lot to talk about still folks I mean hey the spy ended up making the pop this morning But of course of course we have to talk about yesterday You could just see on my five minute chart if anything, you know This is what had happened after 1 30 Eastern yesterday where Powell ended up giving some remarks about inflation and no perhaps Lowering the increased hikes or across, you know, across time beginning Beginning coming up in December. So with saying that had a huge reaction out of the SMP the major indices the spy here Of course ended up having a nice pop into the close So hopefully that looks to continue even if there's a pullback at the open You know look for a slingshot look for a bounce off support. Let's go through some trades from yesterday, though Now we ended up just Smashing it on we ended up killing these trades folks the Shopify right just from the afternoon meeting yesterday Right at 230 if you missed out on the initial pop, that's all right. That's all right This thing ended up, you know breaking right above 40 This essentially is 40 and then it ended up coming right back down during our afternoon meeting when I was doing that A few folks and you know it ended up making the perfect pop ended up bounce I should say perfect bounce and ended up, you know popping back up into the close You know up another 1.6 percent this morning The more this moves up the issue is that it's gonna more become out of our price range To trade right, you know We try and keep these stocks between a dollar and like 30 a dollar and 35 or something like that Yeah, the more this squeezes up eventually we're gonna say all right there are other trades within our range, right? So I'm gonna put this on our side list. It's not on the main watch list for right now But listen if you do well on Shopify day-to-day I Am certain that you're gonna be more inclined to put it on your personal list and I would agree with that I think that's a good idea But you know there's gonna be a lot that looks kind of like this up that one to two to three percent So we're gonna have to really sift through once again this morning One that I just remember that Chuck called out just from yesterday I just popped up in the back of my head here the Roblox trade, right? We ended up doing pretty well on this from Chuck's call out ended up breaking over the highs off of like nearly 3050 there And then ended up making that same type of pattern pulled back ended up bouncing from three o'clock into the close So pretty straightforward on that Even the PECCO trade whoof, you know, this was more active early in pre-market off of its own news off of earnings Ended up dropping off shortly after the open But from that point led to a nice bounce and then more in the afternoon ended up leading to a good squeeze So, you know, I can keep going folks, right? And I'm sure that we'll find a couple of these more on the gainers and losers just this morning, right? But you know with that though, I mean it was a really good day yesterday if you were here for it Congratulations because you know, this is essentially what Fausto and myself train you folks to do on a day-to-day basis It's not every day that we're gonna see is such a clean pop across the markets You know, I mean that was within a Couple of hours two and a half hours time, you know from 130 Eastern into the close So you're really not gonna find days afternoons like this as often so when it comes it's like more like a gift Right, it's more like a treat a gift because this is exactly what we train you for now with that though Speaking of training a couple of things just housekeeping wise to be continue with right now Just if you are a student of CTU just so you know, you know, I'm speaking to really most of us inside the live trading room You can go right on the student portal and check the class calendar folks because you know Keep in mind that we are continuing the phase two stock course today Beginning it I should rather say but you know, we are jumping back into the phase two curriculum We're gonna continue our talks with time and sales and level three I'll be honest with you. I'll probably sprinkle in a little level four book map into it and be honest with you I know that I've been hyping up this big class for the phase one course In December, but probably sprinkle in a little book map for this But you know, nonetheless though the phase two classes are beginning today That's at 10 30 Eastern time then at 12 p.m. Eastern time kind of a funky schedule Just with how we had to reshuffle the classes for this month But I just want to let you folks know that while the chat we'll have the link in the chat board just later on this morning All right, just give me a quick moment here folks Now I thought man this whole week so with that not just the phase two but also keep in mind Actually at 2 p.m. Eastern time I believe Fausto is doing an introductory today trading webinar for all of us in YouTube and Facebook live Just stay tuned for that. He's gonna be broadcasting that I believe right on our YouTube channel YouTube comm forward slash cyber trading you so just make sure that you like and subscribe there He'll be on at 2 p.m. Eastern time for our introductory today trading webinar But with that though, let's just go right from top to bottom now Let's see what we have to work with you. You're heading into the market open It's P a fo up 37% But it's only trading 186,000 shares and I say only because look at everything else So, you know, you'd like to think for a stock up 35% it should be trading a little bit more, right? So for right now, I'm gonna pass on this trade I passed on it on putting it on our pre-market watch list early and I'm happy that I did that because really it Hasn't really done much of anything Loudest to focus more on the arm-ed trade after eight o'clock, right? But again, this one kind of turning back down. It's on our list already off of no news We'll keep it going, but yeah MULN nice cheapy here, right? We normally don't focus on these stocks price price below a dollar Especially if it's like really south of a dollar like 20 cents 5 cents. We really try to avoid these It's not nearly as often that this will make us concise of a move But thankfully here this morning he ended up seeing a higher high at least going into the market open for MULN If anything this stock we are pretty familiar with just because over the last year year and a half We did end up getting our hands on this trade. You could see like back from late October perhaps But that's not what I'm referring to Yeah back from the beginning of this year you have to go back a little bit But back from the beginning of this year ended up having a nice run on this trade It was a pretty cheap stock back then led to a nice pop Just pretty funny how you take your eyes off a day trade for a long amount of time We really haven't focused on it since then just remember the stock because it was a nice, you know runner back then But yeah, I mean right now this thing fell apart fell all the way down at 20 cents 19 cents Listen, it's pumping up right now, but there's bigger better easier fish in the sea to catch right now I think so let's focus on that Turn me over to tops I don't know if this is going to be an easier fish in the sea to catch But perhaps a bigger and more advantageous one if the stars could align so tops end up having a nice pop yesterday morning But that's where we were saying though if the wheels fall apart on a trade like this and seem to be set on our MED to but you know when the wheels fall off this thing will really drop off It'll drop off as fast as it pumped up. So you have to be careful in that regard It's you know up 9% from the close yesterday, but Don't forget about this drop-off, right? You know just as much as I said on our med that history could repeat itself with the drop-off lower into the open Seemed to be said here on tops. So I'm not fully sold on putting this on our morning watch list now I had it on our pre-market list in hopes of like a bigger and better pop You know after the open if it ends up popping and then I'll turn to it But we'll just focus on others. All right. What else we got here folks now. We're kind of below 5% Interesting, I mean, I'm sure there's a lot more that's up that like two three percent like I was referencing earlier Got the ride trade right off of 175 We were hoping for a pop on this off of 175 a little bit earlier like really earlier at like 845 So it's just gone flat since even then but um, yeah I mean for right now this just I'll put on our side list You only have the arm-ed on our watch list right now All right, let's hop over to the loser's side right now folks seeing if there's anything looking just as good if not better I know a bunch of stuff hard to borrow. I try and you kind of gloss over those skip over those ESTC like $52 stock. I just want to look at it quickly but Pass on that big, you know, we've traded big in the past. It's a pretty liquid trade You know trading 112,000 right now this morning down big perhaps off of earnings either way Whatever it's down off of this could be a good stock to follow after the open Key word is could right that that kind of a You know ambiguous word right there, you know, maybe after the open we'll call it out But let's just see what else is out here That might just turn me back to like a you know an XP EV Which honestly I forgot to toss in there with the morning review from yesterday So, you know XP EV ended up making obviously one of the bigger moves across the day yesterday Ended up having a big pop to where it ended up. I think closing over 51% Up so ended up having a big pop prior to the open and then shortly even afterwards ended up providing for a nice bounce And then ended up just taking off from that point So, you know ended up making for a great trade one big level to watch Well now I should say a couple of big levels to watch looking at this year, but um Yeah, on the XP EV trade you had a 4 million share print that was filled yesterday Mid-morning at 1016 so that's gonna be a key level to watch but on top of that you end up having this giant I mean enormous closing bell print speaking of that We'll talk all about these closing bell prints and big prints that I'm referencing here in class coming up the face, too but 1081 1081 the close from yesterday that's gonna be a monster level for this XP EV trade So focus on those two if anything 1016 1081 But yeah XP EV just in terms of a tradable stock and how much it moved yesterday and I Feel like it will just be as active today in some regards. So I'll put this on our main list Mike saying big should have earnings today Hey, if it moves, you know nicer than it is now then we'll call it out Roger saying tops waking up. I guess I'll look look at that again Yeah, it's trying I guess also here, right? little bounce back up, but I Don't know. I mean, I guess we don't really have much else to put on our list Roger Do we I mean you could say the same on big, but um, otherwise, yeah, I guess I'll put tops on there now at this point Hoping more than anything Chuck saying RIG And saying that's more stable than tops. Are they in the same business? If they are I didn't know that Wayne says RIG is like Haliburton's little little brother. Okay, I mean oil stock in that regard, right? We'll pop on Haliburton. I mean, not a whole lot of volume trading on that Normally if there's an oil stock that we'd follow or petroleum stock would be oxy oxy patchy those two mainly Chuck saying I like the ALT chart, but like low volume he's saying. Yeah, I agree. I fully agree actually up over 8% So you'd like to think something could happen on this trade But just like Chuck pointed out he's right like just that for only up 8% in the air for being up as much as 8.5% You'd like to think there would be more volume traded on this. So yeah, I'll pass for right now But actually I'm gonna write this down on my side. Let's chuck not gonna forget about this now All right, so I'll tell you what folks kind of small list to begin But there's a reason why right? We kind of sifted through pretty much everything So if there is a stock that's string a lot of volume That's not on this list that you did well on yesterday. I'll shopify a lot of roadblocks I'll uh hell it could be a lot of things neo Lee snapchat The wolf trade if anything right maybe that pops again after you open You know if you did well on a stock yesterday and it's tradable and trading a lot of volume and activity here in pre-market Then you put it personally on your watch list because that's how we're gonna need to work together as a team on a day like today All right for all of a sudden social media Facebook live in YouTube I appreciate you folks sticking with myself this morning tagging in for Fausto for office inside live trading room Fausto I believe should be good to go upon the market opening up If you wanted to join our live trading room for all of a sudden YouTube and Facebook live Just go right down to the link on the blue banner below the stream to get yourself started if you have any questions beforehand I always like to post my email here at the end Josh at C2 trading calm All right folks, but otherwise for all of a sudden on social media.

So, now let's get started with our first session of speakers. We're going to start with Mr. Jesse Morton. Jesse Morton is the founder and head of Parallel Networks, an organization combating hate and extremism and research coordinator for the Institute for Strategic Dialogues Against Violent Extremism Network in North America. Once a prominent radicalizer in the West, Morton co-founded and was a chief propagandist for Revolution Muslim, a New York City-based active group in the 2000s, where he helped insert the narrative of al-Qaeda and Salafi jihadist ideology into the American ambit. He has lectured at prestigious universities around the world and has worked here in Washington a GWs program on extremism, and he has focused on issues related to jihadist propaganda. Morton was named in 2017 as one of foreign policy's global thinkers. Please help me in welcoming Jesse Morton to the stage. Excuse me, sorry. Good morning to you. This is Eunice, an alter ego and former self. Born Jesse Morton, I became Eunice gradually after suffering from abuse and trauma as a child, running away from home at the age of 16, taking to the streets and joining an ultra-liberal counter-cultural movement and finding Islam through Malcolm X. Before founding Revolution Muslim and going on to create the first organization that unabashedly promoted al-Qaeda's perspectives in the United States from New York City. Revolution Muslim operated in an era when al-Qaeda was becoming less an organization and more a brand. Its chief strategist, Abu Musa Basuri, was instructing jihadists around the world to convey al-Qaeda's message wherever they were to the best of their ability. For American jihadists, that had a tremendous impact due to the First Amendment and the right of free expression. So we could walk right up to the line of free speech and unabashedly, again, support the terrorists. We were connected to 15 terrorist plots. By the time I was arrested on May 23rd, 2011, two weeks after Osama bin Laden was killed and in the middle of the Arab Spring. In 2012, I was sentenced to serve 11 and a half years in federal prison. We imagined then that the war on terror was winding down and that the jihadists had lost. But just like al-Qaeda had understood that ideas are eternal and the template that we set up was sustained. And this is what that template looked like. First, I think it's important to understand that the offline feeds the online.  What it showed was that we were a band of brothers. It showed that we were David and Goliath and that we practiced what we preached. We antagonized anti-Islamic activists and helped to polarize the political landscape. Every single time someone in the United States needed to point to an organization or an individual to justify the claim that jihadists wanted to implement sharia law in the US, they pointed to us. We were the first to use social media and the interactivity and interconnectivity it created. This is the first YouTube video that we made. It's been cross-posted and remains online. It has several million views and it can't be taken down because it craftily does not violate terms of service agreements. We also used a program called PowTalk in a similar way to how ISIS uses encrypt-to-encrypt platforms such as Telegram Today. We gave lectures in an open room and our adherents could chat with one another. We provided 24-7 news and ideological dissemination. Then you could contact us in private messaging where we could facilitate your trek from simply holding radical ideas to committing action in the name of terrorists. We created the first English-language jihadist magazines. The first edition was produced in 2009 contrary to popular belief. It looks exactly like a copy of Inspire or Dabakim Vormiyah today. These magazines were advanced by my colleagues, Samir Khan and Anwar al-Addiqi who eventually joined al-Qaeda in the Arabian Peninsula in Yemen. They went on to radicalize thousands in the West and because they were now produced abroad with terrorists and propagandists that had traveled to join jihadist groups, they could expand beyond simply promoting the ideology and to providing recipes and formula for attacks. We were quick to manipulate the mainstream media and CNN leftist outlets like Russia Today, far-leftist outlets like Russia Today and anti-American outlets, even talk shows on public television. Of course, the overwhelming majority rejected our extremist views but for that small fringe subset, it facilitated a connection to our activity online. The other way that we look at things, I think. And this is Jesse Morton, my true self. I've returned back from where I came. Today, I'm no longer a jihadist but I practice and advocate for a more progressive form of Islam. It's incompatible with democracy and liberal values. My deradicalization can be broken into key themes. First, I had contact with Moroccan millennials during the Arab Spring. I fled to Morocco after threatening the writers of South Park and I taught Arab millennials there, English, interestingly enough. I realized in the context of the Arab Spring that they simply wanted values that I took for granted. Elections, right to speak and believe freely, less corruption from their political class. Second, I spent five months in a Moroccan prison after I was arrested with a preacher that had essentially deradicalized. Mohammed Fizazi, who was arrested in 2004, caused a Blanca attacks and was about to be released for his altered views. Third, I was returned to the United States and housed in solitary confinement after I was extradited. There, a compassionate and empathetic prison guard would take me to the law library for the duration of her shift to get me out of the cell. So for 10 hours a day, four days a week, I was located in a law library, but I had access to philosophical works, particularly from the Enlightenment, is there that I read Thomas Paine, Montesquieu, Descartes, Rousseau, Jean Locke, et cetera. I continued reforming. When I played guilty, I had to meet with an FBI agent to do what they call a debriefing process. She was also empathetic. She was a female figure that sort of facilitated an ability to tap into the root trauma that was my mother's child abuse. But we were also able to cooperate after it became apparent that I was altering my perspectives. And so we stopped several Americans overseas from plotting attacks here and from joining ISIS to the degree that they were carrying out violence there. I continued reforming my understanding of Islam while in prison. And then on March 1st, 2015, after originally being sentenced to 11 and a half years, a federal judge reduced my sentence and released me, March 1st, 2015, when ISIS was all over the news and it was apparent that the war on terror was far from over. They let me go early due to my cooperation and my altered perspectives. Re-entering and reintegrating in America was difficult to say the least. There was no re-entry program for people like me. I was one of the first convicted of terrorism related offenses to return to American society. I could not find work, could not get health insurance. I could not readjust after a prolonged period of solitary confinement. I lost my family and I was divorced. But to my honor, I continued to work with the FBI until in February of 2016, I was outed in the media as an operative informant. I then decided to go public as America's first former jihadist and served as a research fellow at a university here in Washington, D.C. While I had renounced the extremist ideology, I had failed to address the child abuse and trauma that led me to find meaning and significance with jihadism in the first place. I relapsed after 14 years of sobriety and thought I'd thrown it all away. But today I'm recovering and I'm going deeper into the root cause that facilitated my radicalization in the first place. I run a CVE organization called Parallel Networks Now, an organization that I co-founded with my wife and Mitch Silver, former director of intelligence at the NYPD. Mitch spent years monitoring me at Revolution Muslim, but our relationship continues to help me heal. Our Parallel Networks, however, Mitch and I view CVE a bit differently. Our Parallel Networks philosophy is based on the principle that only networks can counter networks. We live in a world where we are all connected within six degrees, but at the same time, when we map our interconnectivity, we realize that hyperpolarization dominates the day. This division is tearing at the fabric of our democracies everywhere. It's also threatening the international liberal order that I think a lot of us have come to take for granted. We need to create pathways to engage, particularly with those that we disagree with the most. I think hashtag shut it down and removing radical content on social media will prove ineffective. I actually think it will prove counterproductive and make things worse. Countering something is reactive. Instead, you have to build an antithetical network built on principles axiomatically opposed to those of violent extremism. Only once you have a network that rivals in size and scope extremist networks can you proactively insert a message that will actually resonate and not be drowned out by the noise. We don't believe in counter-messaging. As many have come to realize, but what is now promoted as alternative messaging we think also fails to realize that information alone is in suffice. People are irrational. They act on emotion. They're intuitive in connecting behavior and belief. Instead, we need to think in terms of parallel networks or alternative ecosystems that convey a comprehensive worldview built upon principles opposed and antithetical to violent extremism. Most importantly, I think, rhetoric, policy, and practice need to match. Quite frankly, we could have won a great deal from the way that we built the English language jihadist ecosystem in the West. So now we're actually building a parallel network of former extremists and their allies, just like me. To develop an alternative ecosystem that can turn radicalization into empowerment and shift the way we think in a tribal and a polarized world. Returning to Rumi now. The wound is the place where the light enters you. We're 17 years into the war in terror, but we must recognize that we are all tired and wounded to a degree. Not so much by words or war, but by sort of what resembles to us at parallel networks a global case of PTSD. Today I'm healing my own trauma in our struggle against hate. Today I can see on the horizon not post-traumatic stress, but post-traumatic growth, finally. The struggle gives me the same sense of purpose, meaning and significance that the extremist networks provided. But perhaps the most important takeaway, I think, is the imperativeness of grasping that in an age of intersecting extremisms in the plural, we all have an obligation to do something, to combat and to counter hate. This is perhaps the most crucial message, I think, that all CVE work should seek to convey. As Martin Luther King Jr. put it, darkness cannot combat darkness, only light can do that. Thank you very much.


My name is Emily and I'm studying Food Science and Business. I've always had a really strong interest in food and I really wanted to do something that kind of explored that. One of the best things of my degree so far has been to develop a new food product as part of the product development course. So we got to design, make it and show it to industry. I really enjoyed it because it allowed me to be really creative and bring everything that I had learned already together. The facilities are so cool. We've got really cool food labs, bio labs which are just awesome and the sensory lab is also a really cool experience as a student. I've worked in research and development and I've worked in quality assurance and what I'm learning in the lab I feel like it translates so well and there is so much overlap. My degree is so hands on and just really applicable in the industry. I love studying here. Everyone in the degree is so wonderful. They're all so collaborative. We have to work together so often. Food science is so broad. You're doing chemistry stuff. You're doing things that are looking at research and development. You're looking at nutrition. There's just such a wide variety of classes that you're doing that. You just never really get bored. I'm really excited to learn more about what it means to create sustainable food, what it means to create future food and food that is just healthy and nutritious for the consumer.


All aboard for the transcribed premiere production, The Cruise of the Paul Parrot, that thrilling, exciting story of the sea. To refresh your memory with what has happened before, Captain Roy Dalton, who has just received his master's papers and his good friend George Wainwright, have signed on as skipper and first maid of the whaling ship, Paul Parrot, owned by Grange & Sons, an outstanding shipping company of New Bedford, Massachusetts. The ship sails in one day, but in the last couple of days, Dalton and Wainwright have been followed by a mysterious Spaniard named Altesti. An agent for another shipping concern down the wharf a bit. They discovered him yesterday spying on them as they were talking to old man Breckenridge, shipkeeper for Grange & Sons, and Sue, sister of Asra Grange, one of the ship's owners. At the present time, Dalton and his first maid are searching through the town of New Bedford for Altesti's house. Roy mate, I hope we're on the right trail. Blow me down, George. If we're not, I'll try new trails until I find him. He's up to some devilishness, or he wouldn't have followed us yesterday when we were talking to shipkeeper Breckenridge. Well, if we don't lay hands on him soon, there's no telling when he'll be lurking around some dark corner shooting at you like he did on the wharf. A swab. If I didn't know that the De Silva Company were fair friends of the Granges, I'd think that he was just operating as their agent to hinder our whaling voyage. But the two companies have always been on pretty good terms, so he must be under his own sail when he sneaks around and spies on us. Well, I don't know, matey. I've been telling you that I sent more than a whaling cruise on this ship, haven't I? What with young Asra Grange, one of the owners shipping along, and what with a good class of seamen signed on, and the good shares in the voyage they're getting, there might easy be some other reason than whaling that might give plenty chance for some lover to be spying on us. Oh, I'll stow that, George. You're too bloom and suspicious. Anyhow, we'll find out what Altesti's reasons were when we get him hooked. You're sure you know where he hangs out? Aye, don't you recall? Breckenridge said Gloucester Street? I've asked. This is Gloucester Street, and it's a few squares up the wharf, just as he said. Let's do some asking at these houses here. Aye, aye, Roy. You try that big house while I ask at the tavern across the way. They may know of him there. Be careful now, George. If there's any trouble, call me. Oh, what in the... Oh, gosh, I'm sorry. I didn't see you here, mister. Well, sonny, that's all right.   It's lucky I didn't knock you down, son. Gee, say, are you a captain?  Are you really a sea captain? Why, sure, I'm a captain, son. There's nothing strange about that, is there? In a port so full with captains and seamen of every one of the seven seas as new Bedford? I've seen captains before, but I've never talked to one. Well, I don't know that it's such an honor to talk to a captain. But you must be a stranger to the port of New Bedford if you've never gammed with a skipper. Yes, sir, I am. I just came here today. I see. Then you wouldn't know what I was about to ask you. Well, gee, I might. What was it, sir? I was about to ask if you knew anything of a certain man my mate and I were looking for. Well, I've been on the street all day, captain. I might know him. Where do you live, son? Where's your folks' house? Well, I... Oh, please, Mr. Captain, I don't know where I'm going to live. You don't know?  Are you lost? No, sir. But you see, my folks live on a farm about 50 miles west of here. Then what are you doing in New Bedford without your folks? Have you... blow me down. I'll wade you, you'll run away from home. Have you? Answer me, lad.  Yes, sir. Lad, you shouldn't have done that. Think how your folks at home will be worried for you. And this is a hard port, lad. There are many rough seamen here. And it's no place for a boy who knows nothing of the life of the sea and has never been away from his parents. Oh, but, Mr. Captain, I've always wanted to go to sea. This is no way to go about it. Why didn't you ask your father for permission? He would have let you when you were older, I'll wager. No, he wouldn't. He said he'd never let me ship on any kind of a craft. Then he knew best. You should have obeyed him. My father was a seamen himself a long time ago. And he always told such wonderful yarns about the sea that I've always wanted to follow his life. I, lad, but the sea is a hard master. I wouldn't advise you to follow it. There's lots of danger and little pay.  Now, you take my advice and weigh anchor for home. Oh, gee. What's your name, son? Jonathan Obadiah Robbins, sir. Well, say, that's a mighty big name to stow on so small a craft. They usually call me Johnny, sir. Johnny, eh? Well, I think that's better. Listen, Johnny, you take Captain Dalton's advice and go home to your folks.  I left a note. Well, that makes little difference. I give you my word, Johnny. You'll be happier if you go home again and maybe take to the sea later in life. And Captain Dalton's word is sacred to him so you can depend on what I say. Did you say you were Captain Dalton, sir? Yes, Johnny, that's the name. Well, just a little while ago, I heard two men talking about you right here. What's that? You heard someone mention my name? Yes, sir. There were two men right in front of this house. And one of them said something about Captain Dalton being away from the ship and that this was a good time to do it, whatever they were talking about. Blow me down. I'm lucky that I ran into you, Johnny. What do these men look like? Well, I was sitting on that step over there and one man, the one with a peg leg, I mean. Peg leg? Yes, sir. Hmm. I wonder. And the other, what did he look like? The other one was real dark and he had a moustache. That was our testy. I'll take my share on it. What did they do then? They seemed to be arguing. Then the dark man went down toward the wharf and the other one hobbled up the street. There's no time to be lost. Ahoy, George! Wainwright! Ahoy! Avast! I'll be right over. Captain Dalton, can I go down to the waterfront with you? Johnny, this is likely to be a dangerous business. You'd better stay here. Oh, but Captain, I helped you trace the man. Listen, I'll go back home if you let me come along. Well... Ah, it is then, lad. But keep out of the way if there's any fighting to be done.  What news? I've had no luck at all. George, this is Johnny Robbins. He's put us on the track of that land-luberal testy. Johnny, this is Mr. Wainwright, my first officer. Hello, lad. I'm glad to know you, Mr. Wainwright. What's this about picking up Al-Testi's fact, Captain? Johnny here has seen and heard two men talking about me. And from his description, one must be Al-Testi and the other... Which way did they head off? Towards the wharf. That was some time ago. Captain, down the hatch. There's no time to lose. Let's run for it. The vast. They've let the Paul Parrott slip down the harbors today. She's riding the anchor about a mile down from the wharf. Hi. We were to go down in boats and board her tomorrow morning. That's right, mate. This would be a fine time for some lubber to board her. The docks are just ahead, aren't they, Captain Dalton? Hi, Ise, son. I think I heard a boat. Orlocks. I believe you're right. It's the Grains Docks. Somebody's setting out in one of our dories, I'll wager. Look over there. There he is. He's getting into the dory.  Hurry. Come back to the wharf or we'll shoot. Make one move for a gun and we'll fire. We're two to one. Come on out of that boat. All right. Don't get excited, signores. I come... That's the swab, all right. We thought it would be you, Altestie. What's your intention and make an offer to one of Grains' dories? I did not think Senor Grains would mind if I borrowed the boat to cruise up and down the wharf a moment. Captain, that's the man I heard talking about you all right. I thought it would be. Altestie, we've been looking for you. And here you are, just about to board our ship. Ah, you honor me, Senores, by looking for me. But I know nothing about boarding your ship. We want to know why you've been steering so close to our course the past few days. You followed us in everything we did and used a gun on me if you care to recollect. And we think this is a good time for explanation. Ah, with pleasure, I will. One moment, a little boy. Do I not know him by his... Let me see. Hey, stop! How? Now, Captain, use your guns if you will. I have the boy in front of me.  I will back up across the wharf. And if you shoot as I go, the boy will be hit. Let me go! Ouch! You're hurting my arm! You bills come. When you let that boy go, we'll shoot. You might as well give up now. Maybe I won't let go. Ouch! See, I have a gun, too. I hold it over the boy's shoulder. Oh, shoot her.   Adios, abigos míos. If we follow him, you'll shoot. And here we are in the open with no casks or rigging the hide behind. Wait till he ducks behind those crates. Then we'll follow. There, he's behind the wharf office. We'll drop on our stomachs and crawl after him. Look out, there's his hand. Around the building. He's going to shoot. Mr. Brackenridge, listen. What's that? Hey, Sue. There's trouble brewing. Those were pistol shots. Oh, look out the window. Who's that running this way? Hmm. That's that old testy fellow and he's dragging a young lad with him. Mr. Brackenridge, help me. That's what I'll do. Come on, hurry. Now, which way did they go? They've disappeared. Where in the world could Al testy have taken Johnny? What's going to happen? Will Johnny get away from the Spaniard? Will Captain Dalton catch him? What has dickened the peg leg sailor to do with all this? Be sure not to miss even one of these exciting adventures on the cruise of the Paul Parrot. Your Paul Parrot announcer is Dave Ward.


This is an iso-seismal map from Otto Netli's paper about the 1811-1812 sequence of three earthquakes that happened in New Madrid. An iso-seismal map is one in which similarly felt seismic intensities are contoured, so that you can see how far away different intensities of shaking were felt from the epicenter of the earthquake. It helps you figure out where the epicenter probably was, and it helps you figure out what the magnitude probably was. So these kinds of maps are normally used when we don't have the instrumentation to actually have determined where the epicenter was or the magnitude with a seismometer. In this case, the way Netli made this map is that he combed through old newspaper accounts of eyewitness reports of felt shaking from this earthquake, and then he put those on a scale of 1 to 12, one being hardly felt at all, or not at all, and 12 being absolute destruction hell on earth. So, for example, near New Madrid where the epicenter was, there are some reports of 10 to 11 far away in New England this earthquake was felt, but at a much smaller intensity, so there's an intensity of 2 or 3. Then after you collect a lot of this data and put it on a map, you can try to connect up similar intensities, and basically you end up drawing rings of intensity around your epicenter. So here is the contour for intensity 10, say. Out here is the contour that separates the fours from the threes, and so on. One thing to notice from this map is that there weren't a lot of people west of the Mississippi, so all the rings kind of die out here at the Mississippi. That's the best we can do. These maps are actually still used today, but they're usually used for ground-truthing as best we can historic earthquakes. For example, when the magnitude 5.8 earthquake happened in August of 2011, you could have logged into the USGS site, told them your zip code, told them how much shaking you thought you felt, and then they compiled the map, and this is the map they compiled, that shows how much shaking there were in different places around the country. So the folks in Richmond felt very strong shaking between intensity 6 and 7 estimated, and up into Canada people felt this earthquake too. So of course we know the actual magnitude of this earthquake because we have instrumentation now and we can calculate it. So what this is useful for is to take a map like this, and if you know you have historic earthquakes in this area, you can try to figure out how far away people felt that, and then guess about what magnitude it probably was compared to where people felt it today, where we do know what the magnitude was. So when you read Nutley's paper, keep in mind how these isosaisal maps are made and how much detective work it takes to actually do this.


Internet search engines, digital assistants and language translators, they seem magical. And that is because they are composed of subsystems and subsystems, and even more subsystems that address different aspects of human language. And all of this in order to find cheaper restaurants near me, or to translate into Danish, is this the train to Copenhagen? When these systems fail, it is often due to their flawed understanding of human language. And these failures have real-world consequences, like a translation creating an embarrassing situation, or a message saying, I love you, sent to the wrong person. In my PhD, I researched one of the fundamental aspects of computer systems working with human languages. It's called word representations. You see, computers cannot understand the meaning of words. They need us to give them ways they can learn representations of words. And these representations have to be meaningful. They should encode information that computers can use. Unfortunately, computing word representations is a time-consuming task. Even on powerful and expensive computers, it can take weeks and sometimes even months. And when the representations are computed, it is often not clear what information they contain and how we can use that information to address the causes of embarrassing situations. My research has shown that a popular kind of word representation, called word clusters, are highly effective at encoding information about grammatical rule. Thus, they make it easier to distinguish between nouns and verbs and adjectives and adverbs. We can now construct systems that can address tasks that require information about grammatical rule. However, constructing word clusters still takes time. So we looked at the way they are constructed and found ways to reduce this time. In some cases, computer training stations have been reduced from three weeks to three days. In another project, we turned to word representations in order to make it easier for humans to read text with lots and lots of abbreviations. We used a kind of representation, called word vectors, to construct a system that reads every single article on Wikipedia. And it does that in order to find out what abbreviations exist, what do they mean, and when are the different meanings used. With this information, our system can disobey great hundreds of abbreviations directly in place in the sentence where they are used. This way, making text easier for humans to read and avoiding those cases when you have to turn to a colleague and say, excuse me, what does PCB mean in this sentence here? These are just a couple of the ways. Research into word representations helps systems better understand what we mean when we say words. So next time you find yourself embarrassed by a computer's clumsiness with human languages, just forgive them. They're still learning.

I'm here now to talk about someone who just didn't do their job but did other people's job. Someone who understands that to be your brother's keeper is probably the best thing to be. And it takes a village and because of what he did he saved countless lives and we're grateful to him. We have these humanitarian awards and we try to present those every year to people who've made a big difference the year before for patient safety. And this year I'm proud and honored and humbled to be up here to recognize Secretary Marcello Eberard of Mexico. Please come up, thank you so much. We would like Secretary Eberard to speak but before he does I just want to tell you what happened. Secretary of Foreign Affairs, not health, until now, yeah, is worried about his people, is worried about people in Latin America and the COVID is raging. He makes sure vaccines are made available to people of Mexico, to people of Latin America. We're grateful to you. Thank you so much for your love and kindness. Thank you and for your leadership. Thank you. Would you like to say a few words? Yes, please. Thank you. Joe, thank you very much. I am very honored to receive this recognition in such an important forum. Just to say that it's quite unusual to have a foreign minister in a health and patient safety movement but as a matter of fact we are supporting and we have the commitment to extend in our country the ideas that you are defending and promoting in this forum. So thank you very much from the bottom of my life and my heart. I will say that this is a commitment not to forget the lessons from the COVID-19 experience because it's easy to forget, to return to normality. COVID-19 was a tragedy for so many countries. We learned in a very hard way, tough way, the importance for our countries to take as a public policy your patient safety movement, the idea to improve the quality of all the Mexican health system in order to be prepared for the next pandemic but right now in order to improve the life and the chances of the patients in our system, the health system. This is a tough and the important thing that this award means for Mexico. The commitment to improve every day the patient safety in our health system. We have 60 hospitals in our country working in this movement and that's why I'm here to say thank you everyone for this award. Count on us Mexicans in this movement and we want to transform this idea in a public policy in our country for every hospital, for every patient in Mexico system. Thank you Joe. Thank you Michael Ramsey. Thank you Dr. Nealon Dingra, Dr. Donaldson, everyone thank you very much from the bottom of my heart and I recognize you Joe for your work. Really congratulations. It's very touching. This movement is really changing the life and the chance for the patients all over the world. Thank you very much. Thank you so much. Wow this is amazing. Beautiful huh? Thank you very much. You deserve more. Thank you so much. Thank you. Thank you so much. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. Jim? I know we have a President Berwick in the works and President Sheridan but please we need this guy to become President of Mexico. You guys should meet. Thank you. Thank you so much. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you.


This foundation is probably the best foundation for oily skin according to everybody on YouTube. So I have it here today to show you the Estee Lauder Double Wear Foundation. I've watched probably a hundred thousand videos and anytime a girl has oily skin they always claim that this is their favorite high-end foundation. So I'm going to be putting it to the test today. I have tried a sample of this before and it wasn't like crazy about it. It was cool but a young philosopher by the name of Alia once said, if at first you don't succeed, dust yourself off and try again, try again, try again. So I actually went out and bought the foundation, we're going to be trying it out of the real bottle getting a full experience and I'm going to see how long this foundation actually lasts. Now the message and claim on the packaging is actually claiming to do a lot. So it says this is the double wear stay in place makeup for all skin types, not just oily, not just dry, it's supposed to be for everybody, 15 hour staying power. That's a long time to claim. It says it's going to look fresh and flawless through the heat, which is good for the summer, humidity, good for my Florida trip coming up, non-stop activity. I will be running errands today so we will be doing some non-stop activities. Won't change color which is great because sometimes foundations will oxidize and you're one color in the daytime and a different color by night. It won't smudge or come off on clothes. These are some big claims. It's basically saying this foundation is perfect. You won't believe how long it wears. I don't believe it, that's why I'm making this video. I actually bought this from Sephora this morning. How much did I pay for this? This is the wrong Sephora. I really went from never going to Sephora to going every week because of you guys. The total, oh that can't be right. Oh I did buy some other things. It was $39.50 plus tax so basically it's a $40 foundation but since everybody swears by it, I got it. I just really hope it's amazing. The double wear comes in this blue little box. I am the color FW1 bronze and there's actually 38 colors to choose from. I love the amount of shade range that this foundation has and it does have a lot of different colors for darker skin tones as well. It goes to you Estee Lauder and it comes in this beautiful chic bottle. I love the gold top. It looks very elegant and regal but this also does have that kind of sheer matte over it so you can't see the true color of the foundation just from looking at it. You are going to have to open it and kind of do a little blot test. But since this is a high-end foundation it's good that you can go in and actually just get color matched at Sephora, Macy's, Bloomingdale's, Nordstrom's, Neiman Marcus, all those fancy high-end places should have this brand. It does have a twist cap on it. I would have preferred a pump but as long as it works, I'll be fine. So this is a sneak peek of how the foundation went on but let me show you exactly how I applied it. Starting off on a moisturized face I'm now going to apply my primer first. I am going to be using the Rimmel Stay Matte Primer only because I've used this in all my other foundation videos. Even though I have found better primers but just to be fair I'm going to keep it consistent. So I highly recommend you follow me on Snapchat and Instagram. That way I could show you how much better all my foundations are working with new primers because there's no way I could do a video with every primer with every foundation like that's just insane. Now I'm going to be using a Beauty Blender to apply this because that's just what I like to do like so. I'm definitely happy with the color match. I think it looks really natural. It doesn't feel heavy or cakey and it gives you some really good coverage but not like extreme full coverage but a good amount of coverage. So now I'm going to finish my hair and makeup. If only life were really that easy. So it's currently 1 p.m. I'll be back in a couple hours and we'll see how long this foundation really lasts. And we're back. It is now 11 p.m. so I've had on this foundation for a total of 10 hours and make it to 15 or 24 but still a very long time of me going out and about and running errands. So first impression I think it looks pretty good. It's probably better than even the first time that I tried it. I'm actually really liking the results. I am a little shiny because of my oily skin and because it kind of like raised the makeup up it is transferring. But I will say when I first put on the foundation I do think it was very like a dry matte finish that wouldn't have transferred on any type of clothing. So at this point I am going to blot with my oil absorbing sheets. These are by Walgreens. There's a million other different brands but this is what I do in all of my foundation Friday videos. So let's see how much comes up. Honestly not a lot of oil came off. I mean I did move it around so that it did kind of take up the whole sheet but this is not a lot of oil and there's barely any makeup on here so it's always a good sign when only the oil comes off on the sheets like it's supposed to and not the makeup. So now that I blotted it looks really good. Now what I say that the Estee Lauder Double Wear Foundation is the best tie-in foundation for oily skin. See I mean I can't really say that yet because I've only tried three high-end foundations thus far so my spectrum is kind of low right now but I will say this is my favorite one thus far and it's going to be pretty hard to beat. I'm definitely happy that I gave the Estee Lauder Double Wear a second chance. I think it looks great. It did a very good job for my very oily skin and I will continue to be using this. I'm actually really excited to try this with my even better working primers so if you guys want to see me use this on top of a better primer make sure to follow me on Instagram and Snapchat at MsBeyondGrenet so I can give you guys updates on all the foundations that I reviewed and how they work with different foundations, different setting powders all that stuff that could make a difference. So if you have tried the Estee Lauder Double Wear Foundation as well and love it or hate it leave me a comment and let me know your thoughts and also let me know what foundation you want me to review next. Before you go make sure you give me a thumbs up and subscribe. I post new foundation reviews every Friday and curly hair videos every Sunday so I hope that you, yes you, push that subscribe button and come back next week. I'll see you guys next time. Thanks for watching Beyond Green Day today.

Live from San Francisco, it's theCUBE. Covering Oracle Open World 2016. Brought to you by Oracle. Now, here's your host, John Furrier and Peter Burris. Welcome back, everyone. We are live in San Francisco for Oracle Open World 2016. This is Silicon Angles Cube coverage of Oracle with three days. We're on our third day of wall-to-wall coverage. I'm John Furrier with Silicon Angle and Peter Burris, my co-host, head of research at Silicon Angle as well as general manager of Wikibon.com Research. Our next guest is Mike Webster, senior vice president and general manager of Oracle Retail and Hospitality. Great to see you. Welcome to theCUBE. Thanks, great to be here. So, I love this conversation because it brings kind of a sexy appeal because retail really is the front lines of all edge computing, internet of things, consumer interaction, and hospitality is the schmoozing all these places people go on vacations and the pressure to deliver good consumer experience is at the highest. But yet the data has become more important in these areas than ever before. And sometimes they've always had antiquated systems or siloed applications. So that's just shifting to the cloud clearly. So give us the update on where you see this. Yeah, look, we have a tremendous passion for both industries. You know, the thing we love about retail more than anything is we see changes in consumer desire and behavior that then signals to us potential changes that might follow on in other segments whether they're banking or in the communication segment or in utilities as an example. So we think that these are really at the forefront of where consumer technology meets more traditional business technology. And they're businesses that really lend themselves very comfortably to the use of big data. And look, retail's always been about big data. We've had big data for a long time. What we've had is little insight. So I think the things that we're really excited about and what we're talking about with the hundreds of our guests that are here at Open World this week is how do we help use that data to anticipate what the consumer really wants? How do we bring science into context of better merchandising, better engaging, and then better managing the flow of goods and services to those customers they want to serve. And then we're using the data to try to better inspire staff to serve them. So it's just a really wonderful opportunity with Tech and Cloud coming together in retail. You know, my observation, we've done a lot of CUBE live broadcasts with some of the sports teams in the Bay Area around sports data and interactions. And the three things that pop out of that kind of hit retail and hospitality is how do they manage the team? How do they manage the fan experience and how do they manage the organization? Now, retail's always been kind of a point of purchase kind of thing, with a lot of big data and now very little insight. But now to not only the need for more insight, but more transaction environments. The surface area of digital has expanded. So the sports is a great example.  So the surface area of the touch point becomes larger. It becomes much larger. I think the sports and entertainment venue environment is one of the segments we serve. We have, you know, roughly half of the major league parks and stadiums here in the U.S. and many around the world. And, you know, there's a great case where using technology delivered by our cloud to speed to something simple like getting concessions. Right? I mean, we know as an example that you could drive 50% more concession sales just by reducing the amount of time that you spend waiting in line. And we solve that problem every day for great stadiums. So digital allows us to engage better in seat. Let's us get better personalization around either fans that we have an affinity to. And it allows us to share that in a social environment. So all of those come together via the Oracle Cloud.  We've heard stories and I'd love to hear some use cases from you guys where, you know, if the team loses the prices that jerseys in the store instantly go down, if they win, it goes up. Or if it's a family friendly environment, beer costs more. So they can actually dynamically manage things with the data. And that would make sense almost in all retail and all things being outside in kind of focused. Can you share some examples of where you guys are doing those kinds of things with customers and some of the results? Sure, I mean, I'll take a retail example in this case and maybe come back and give you some hospitality ones. But in retail, what we're able to do is we're actually able to look and see what was all of the browsing behavior for a consumer segment online and looking to see, say, they ship products into a postal code or a zip code of X. We can then take that insight, what were customers looking for and use that to intelligently drive the assortment, what merchandise goes into the physical store. So we start to bridge the digital and the physical divide using data to more intelligently assort offers. We can certainly do the same as we look at the sell-through of items and better adjust inventory. And in a sporting venue, I know I can move around, say hot dog buns are selling hot on this side of the stadium. I can intelligently move goods around. So lots of wonderful applications that are enabled by great data. So the thing that I'd like to have explain is the impact of mobile on retail and hospitality. Can you share some anecdotal data? Does it change some of the dynamics around the business, around the users? Sure. Yeah, I mean, I think mobile obviously is a great neutralizer. It brings transparency to both the retail and hospitality journeys. And for the first time, it starts to engage us as consumers and tailoring it to our own preferences and needs. I mean, there's more devices on the planet than there are people or toothbrushes or toilets. And what it does is it gives us as the guest or consumer visibility to pricing, inventory position, it gives us access to recommendations. So we're enabling all of our applications for mobile, not just for consumers, but for associate use. How do I let you get shoulder to shoulder with associate that can see other things that you've bought, other things that may be in your basket and make recommendations to your experiences, Richard. Same if I go on hospitality. We've taken what is a traditional strength of ours where we provide the check-in service, a property management system to hotels. And now we've extended that all the way out to the guests. So I can from my phone, check in, have my room, select where I want to be, and just flow right past the front desk and save myself some time. So mobile is an absolute game changer for both those communities. So what we've seen happen over the last 10 years is business which used to largely be defined by the industry that they were in, the assets that they had at their disposal, and how they bought them to bear on opportunities. Because of digital, the specificity or the uniqueness of those assets is starting to change, because you can program them differently. So how is Oracle's keeping track, and we kind of talked about this, touched upon it, keeping track of changes in the definition of industry as industries themselves look at their customers and how they can fill up the experiences differently. Sure, I mean we're a bit unique in terms of how we approach our customers and that we have organizations that obviously focus on kind of horizontal platforms like database or core technology or hardware. And then we have industry groups that are very targeted that are made up essentially of domain experts. And it's one of the things that is why we love retail because we think again, understanding how that consumer engages is a good predictor of what could happen elsewhere. So the way that we're trying to change, I think, is again having laser focus on what are the most critical business problems the industries face. And if we see opportunities to leverage and scale those across others, we will. And increasingly we think all of those converge to a point of delivery because the way those assets are now configured is different. If I'll stay in hospitality for a second. If I'm a restaurant, the last thing I want is a server under desk to manage, to secure and update. So what we're helping our customers do is take all the cost and complexity of IT, put it on our shoulders, and then let them really focus on how do they unlock innovation to serve their guests or their consumers. How does Mark Herd look at the retail? I know that he used to be at NCR as well back in the day. Does he see the retail opportunity as a unique thing or part of the overall cloud perspective? Because I think you guys have a unique perspective of Oracle running all the databases, if you will. But now with this whole new cloud push, the model's upside down in a good way. So it's kind of disruptive. Does Mark see that? Do you guys talk about that? Do you guys have conversations around that? We do. And I think what excites Mark and the rest of our teams, of course, is that what cloud allows us to do is to take these incredibly powerful tools that we've offered to the largest global retailers on the planet. The best brands. And bring those down to serve a much, much larger pool of customers. So the aperture of market that we can now address because we've taken that complexity away lets us sell to a lot of new customers. So we have customers that are in hundreds of millions of dollars of revenue that two, three years ago would never have been good candidates for us because the weight and the cost of our offering would have probably been too significant. I think Mark sees that opportunity and that is retail. It is a true pyramid of a select group of very large customers, but a lot of mid-market, which is just more opportunities for us to grow our company. What's the biggest thing that you've seen happen in the retail and hospitality space in general? Just holistic trend-wise.  You have all kinds of ways. You mentioned the mobility is a great example. You have machine learning and AI, Larry's showing the chat box. I mean, you can almost see the recommendation ends. You can almost connect the dots on machine learning. Is there a new generation of retail mindset as can you point to a trend that's driving a lot of the change at the retail level at the edge? Well, I think you hit them, right? I think the foundational changes that are happening in retail are being driven by this consumer-centric mobile delivery model and that are being delivered by embedding science and analytics into the workflows. I mean, the reality is trying to manage simple things like how do I price across different channels? Exceeds the capacity of the knowledge worker that lives in the retail today. So the buyer, the planner, the allocator, it's too complex. Too many variables, too many data points. So by packaging all of this capability in simple-to-use tools that we then deliver on mobile, that's what's changed the conversation for our community. So how's the industry changing? I mean, I don't want to bring up the whole ageism thing. I don't really mean it that way, but I mean like, I think like mainframes the minis and every transition, you have a generational people that clutch and hold on to the old way, right? Certainly the retail systems have been out there like, I mean, the mainframes and you've worked at NCR have been doing a lot of transaction stuff and IBM's in there. So there's a lot of old thinking and it's hard to rip and replace out these huge systems like that run hotels and global chains and retail. So what's the new philosophy? Is there kind of like a guiding principle? I mean, in Cloud we see DevOps driving a lot of the developer conversation. Is there a business version of that in retail? There is and I believe that we are in that generational shift and we're really in it. I think the retail and hospitality industries, some might describe as being technology laggers and I would respectfully disagree. I think these are companies that may not invest the same percentage of revenue on IT as other industries because their margin profiles are smaller but they get more out of their technology because technology to them isn't about just simple enablement of a business problem. It is about survival. It's quarter their business basically. Quarter their business and increasingly there's a bit of a twist in position in that we are becoming more of the retailer's IT run shop and they are then becoming more about the innovation engine that's going to fuel it. So I think that that delivery model is flipping and that I think Cloud is the front out of that generation shift. I would say that Peter mentioned yesterday on a CUBE interview that IT has always been there in hospitality and retail because it was back office stuff. Certainly critical to the business but now as it flips to the front office I mean it is literally front lines on everything. I think to me that's, do I get, am I getting that right in terms of that flip? I mean it's still critical. Yeah, everything that they're focused on is how do they enable the guest experience, right? So there's not massive transformation going on in back office for new ERP or new HTML things happen but the focus of IT and hospitality is on how do we engage the guest? How do we make his or her journey more efficient and how do we help them drive revenue by better tailoring and personalizing your office? Well one of the most important things that at least in hospitality and retail business is that it's not a push. Guests and shoppers are demanding it because it certainly provides better experience but it also increases their overall power, their ability to get what they want at the price that they want. So this is, you're in two industries where it's a pull problem and IT and business has to respond to customers dragging them into it. That's different from some other industries where folks are kind of doling out new function, new capabilities and hoping that the customer would adopt it. How does that change your relationship with customers, Oracle's customers, relative to some other industries? Yeah, I think it changes our customers in two fundamental ways. One is that I think it puts us squarely in the value chain of how they deliver that, right? Because the availability of our cloud service becomes mission critical, right? Because it's being delivered via our infrastructure, not theirs, right? So I think we take that with obviously great purpose and intent and we know we have to now manage their relationship with their customer. That's one. Two is then you really were able to bring the full breadth of the Oracle portfolio because we don't just have those transactional systems that sell or check in. We can enable those with Oracle BI. We can enable those with Oracle CX technologies that help us attract customers, inspire customers and keep them engaged in the process. So I think the ability for Oracle to become a more strategic partner is just growing every day in these two communities that I'm blessed to serve. On the last minute here, take a minute to share with the audience what your plans are for the year. You guys have any events? If people are watching that, that our customers are wannabe customers, where would they go? Is there an event you guys have? Is there a road show? Is there any priorities you'd like to share with them? Yeah, so I think we have a number of different community activities that we directly manage and promote. Our next large one will be Oracle's Industry Connect, which will be in April in Orlando. But we'll certainly attend a number of other trade shows like the National Retail Federation Show or Shop Doc and Order. So we have a pretty published schedule and everyone can go to o.com to find that. We are as excited as we've ever been about what's coming. We have our absolute latest generation retail platform coming out here in the next few months. It's called version 16. It is a game changer for our customers. Cloud enabled. Cloud enabled really drives simplicity in the business model, inspires their guests and their staff on how better to serve. And it really helps them to better anticipate the changes that are coming. And then we will continue to release a schedule of new hardware to both retail and the hospitality communities, as well as massive investments that we're starting to realize around our property management for hotels and point-and-sale for our restaurant companies. So it's a great time to be in service these communities. There's so much going on. And I think Oracle has a really interesting opportunity here to change the conversation. And what's the main differentiator versus the competition that you tell your customers that Oracle has over the competition? Yeah, I think our business model is different because the way we configure, again, this focus on solving the business problem, I think the level of investment that we make as a company and we spend $5.3 billion in R&D, a lot of that goes to industries. Our delivery model is different and just the breadth of our portfolio. We just have amazing, amazing technologies that help our customers, again, simplify and scale.
