Hey, what's up everybody? This just in Redfin and Open Door are partnering up on their ibuyer business. This is very interesting because just last week, Purple Bricks pulled out of the US and now Redfin and Open Door are partnering up on their ibuyer business. What is ibuyer? Well, it's just like Instant Offers for Zillow, they offer to buy direct from the sellers. They offer to buy your house directly without agent involved. It's cash. It's a quick closing. It's a real easy process. However, the catch is it's a lot lower price. Another study was done by MarketWatch that revealed that the ibuyers were buying the properties for 11% less than the sellers would have gotten on the open market going through a real estate agent. We're talking about the property owner's net here, 11% less on their net. If they went and sold it on the open market, added the commission on top and all the other fees, they would still make 11% more than if they went with an ibuyer. That fact right there is a great statistic to tell your clients when they're considering one of these options. Why do I think that Redfin and Open Door and Zillow are doing these ibuyers slash Instant Offers? Why do I think Open Door and Redfin partnered up? I want to answer the first question first, and that is, why are they doing ibuyers? Why are they making this Instant Offer option for homeowners? Most homeowners are not going to go that route because it's a much less offer, but why are they doing it? Even the CEO of Redfin said that they can't buy all their customer's properties. It would be way too much money to put out there. By the way, this article on Redfin and Open Door partnering up on this has a picture of the CEO of Redfin and it's hilarious. He has a bunch of $100 bills just throwing them in the air. It's crazy. So why do I think they do it? It's because they want the homeowner's attention. He said it many times that once the homeowner comes in, they look at the offer that they're making as an ibuyer or an Instant Offer, and the homeowner turns that offer down. They're going to turn it right around and use another service that Redfin offers, which is listing your property. Which is still a discounted rate from the general market. So they list it for a much less commission than you would a traditional real estate company. So what they're doing is they're using the offer as the ibuyer as bait to try to get the homeowner in, get their attention, see if they can buy it for really cheap, and then if not, they'll just turn it around and list it. Genius. And if they do turn it around and buy a lot of these properties for really cheap, they win. So I can say that I think it's really cool to see this happen and just to have people thinking outside the box to try to make something happen. I love that. Do I think it's a threat to real estate agents? No. Because people still want relationships. People still want as much money as they can get. There's no worry about one of these. It's just like I said in the Purple Bricks video last week. If somebody wants to use one of these discounted brokerages, flat fee companies, let them go and tell them, look, if it doesn't work out, then come back to me and I'll take care of you. And that's what's going to happen 98% of the time, they're going to come running back to you because that's how it's happened for me. And on the flip side, when that person goes away, you're going to fill that time up with more people that want to do business with you. The name of the game is we're going to win some, we're going to lose some, but we're always going to be moving towards who can we help, who wants to work with us. Because there are 100% of the time going to be people out there that want to do business with us. And on the flip side, there's going to be people who do not want to do business with us. Okay, so enjoy both sides of it because you can't have one without the other. Now why did Redfin and Open Door partner up? I don't know exactly, okay, I'm only assuming this, but I feel it's kind of a moment of desperation. I think they're trying to combine forces in terms of capital that they have on hand to buy some of these properties. Which is great because they can put their money together and see what happens, but the majority of consumers, the majority of your clients are going to want to deal with you. Okay, because they're going to want to get the most that they can possibly get for their property. All right, they're going to want to get that 11% that they're going to lose by selling it to an eye buyer. They're going to want to deal with you because you've created this relationship with them and they know that you're going to take care of them. They don't want to be thrown into the system that doesn't really show much of a motion towards one of the most incredible decisions that they'll probably ever make in their life.

What's up everybody, Jason here for jasperyscasebreak.com. We just sold out 2022 Tops Triple Threads Baseball Nine Box Case Break number four. All right, here we go guys. Let me fix my camera here. All right, so we had a little R&B for a couple teams there. So there's everybody else that bought in straight up. And here are the customers in the right number block feature all those teams there. Good luck to all everybody. Now this is the second half of the case. Second half of the master case number four there. So let's rip it open. Let's get some big hits again guys. So the first half actually had some really, really nice stuff. We got a redemption for a Deca. Can pull another one on one. But we should have some nice stuff here as well. Both inner cases usually have some decent stuff. All right, here we go guys. I think we might have our first White Whale, which previous years there was always one White Whale per inner. But this year we've just been seeing random number one, one-on-ones, not White Whales. But we'll take a White Whale. Frank Thomas for the Chicago White Talks. Patrick Davis. And then Robin Yau for the Brewers. Going to Greg. First box, White Whale Patch Autograph Joey Vado. One-on-one. Nice one for the Cincinnati Reds. And that's going to Ed. How you going, man? Beautiful patches in there too. Trifecta Trio. It's a great way to start off the case. And then we got a Garrett Cole to 48. All right, we got Garrett Cole to 199 and to 75, CJ Abrams. That's Washington, R&B, and Yankees. So Yankees, that would be 40, that's zero. Going to Jason. And then seven. That's going to Mike Well. All right, we got Smashing Stars. That is Jose Altuve to 36. Astros that's going to Ed. And we got a Jackson Frasier to 50 for the Cubs. Cubs is also going to Ed. Nice first box there. That's how we do it here right over. All right, Barry Larkin for the Reds to 259, and then Boba Chef for the Blue Jays. 149 to 299. That's nine going to Ken Bond. Brewers? No, oh, this is Greg S. Not Greg, not you, Dash. There's another Greg in this break. We got a Miggy to 259, and then for the Mets. That's Jacob de Grom. To 195, five is Ed. Detroit is Brian, straight up. Yeah, sorry for the confusion. Go with the hits now. You got Yelich, one out of 36. Christian Clutch, that is Greg S. And then we got Brady Singer for the Kansas City Royals. Going to Tyler to 75. And we got Bobby Delback for the Red Sox going to Ken Bond. And we're to 50. With a Blakesdale Orange to 18, six of 18. Padres is Ed as well. All right, two boxes down. Let's go to the third. We got Hosea to 150. And Yachty to 199. Yachty St. Louis, Josh straight up. And then Astros is Ed straight up to 125. That's New York Giants. San Francisco going to Dash. And then Red Sox, that's going to Ken Bond. All right, we got Franco. We got 13 out of 18. That's for the Braes. Three, Brian Tippett. With a Reed Dettmers for the Angels. 43, another one for Tippett. There you go, 143 out of 199. We got Future Phenoms out of 25. Luis Garcia for the Nationals. Another one for the R&B, zero. When adjacent. A lot of hits so far for the R&B, I will say. And I know there's like, what, 10 teams, but still. Dodgers, Mookie to 36. Dodgers is Ed straight up. All right, you probably get teased a lot with like the Orioles, I assume. Mike Piazza to 99 and Francisco Lindor to 259. All right, so Metz is R&B too as well. 39, and it's Ken Bond. No one for the Metz at 33. Three is Brian Tippett. Another one for the Metz there. That's 96 out of 125. Six is Michael D. And then we got Bryon Buxton, 31, 131. Twins, one Michael P. A lot of base cards also go into their R&B teams too. All right, we got a triple relic to nine. Nine of nine for the Yankees. That's Reggie Jackson, Derrick Jeter and Aaron Judge. Spot nine, Glen and Ken Bond. And we got an autograph here as well. Patch auto, 26 out of 99. Joe Ryan, that's also R&B six. Going to Michael D. And we got to 18. Star at short, Xander Bogarts, four of 18 for the Red Sox. That's going to Ken Bond as well. And we got Jake Cronenworth to 27. Padres' Ed. Alrighty. Pretty much halfway through this box. All right, we got Ryan Sandberg to 99. Rotterdacunia to 259. Dustin Braves, Cubs, Ed. We got Spencer Torpleson for Detroit. Ryan to 99. Johnny Bench for the Reds, Ed to 259. All right, we got Ryan Mountcastle for the Orioles. That's number to 75. Orioles straight up, Ed as well. That has a lot of teams in this, it looks like. Josh Lowe for the Rays, 14 out of 48. Spot four going to Dan, last spot, Mojo. We got Manny Machado, one out of nine. Padres going to Ed. And another Ryan Mountcastle. This is a Ryan Mountcastle box, 33 out of 99. Ed with the Orioles as well. They have one of those, I would love to put one of those tripodographs. Oh, I thought you knew, man, what the hell, Dash? Well, there's got to be a tripodograph I've seen for the Giants. Probably does feature Posey, I wouldn't doubt it. I mean, they could put a maze. I mean, they're just sticker autos, if they have some. Donnie baseball to 299. I just actually recently just sold Niko Willie May's auto. It's in the showcase, it's like 600 bucks, Dash, it's sweet. It's an on-card too. So that's Sam, 27, seven is Michael L. 50 of 50, Roberto Clemente and the 299 Roy Campanella. That's a dodges. Yeah, I have a buddy that sells a ton of stuff to Jaspies all the time, so I'm like the middle man. I'll show it to you after the break if you want to see it. It's in our showcase now, 600 bucks. TJ Fridale to 99. And Giancarlo Stanton, one out of 36. That's Michael P. All right, do you have a redemption coming up? We have Jaren Durand at 36. You could send it via balance over here on this part of the website, Dash. I'll show you how to do it if you're interested. Either that or you can call the store and we can take your, on the card. But I think it's probably just easier to do it online and we can ship it out to you. All right, here we go. Triple Threads Autograph Single Jumbo Relic of Tim Anderson. It is the Chicago White Sox and Patrick Davis. I think what they're gonna do probably during halftime is what they're gonna do is they're gonna go into the stands and try to like, probably get rid of as much snow as they can so they can't stop throwing snowballs, you know? But honestly, they just need to penalize the Buffalo bills. I mean, some arrogant fans are not gonna care and continue to do it, but if you're the reason why Buffalo gets penalties, why not, right? Then maybe that'll stop the bills to Bill's fans from doing that. All right, 259, Corbin Burns and Miggy to 299 and Brewer's Gregus. Not a lot to 299 to learn for the New York Giants, which of course is the San Francisco Giants and then Chipper Jones, Braves, Dustin. And how about a little boba shit? Four out of nine. Patch autograph, above average. And that's Blue Jays, R&B four, which is Dan, last spot mojo. And then we got Acunha Junior, three out of nine. Dustin with that one. We have a Austin Riley to 18. We got one of 18 right there that's gonna go to the Atlanta Braves and Dustin. And then we got Patrick Corbin to 75 for the Washington Nationals, which of course is an R&B team seven, Michael. And then to 50, Carlos Correa for the Twins. That is 32. Two is Michael L. To 199, 47, Andrew McCutcheon, and then 61 out of 150, Eloi Hamenez. We have a Anthony Rizzo for the Yankees. That's a one out of 36, another one for Michael. And we got Austin Meadows for Detroit when a Brian V. 33 out of 99. Ooh, don't look Rex, you're still here. Above and beyond, patch autographs of Nolan Ryan. 19 out of 27, Astros edition going to add. And then more Astros, Kyle Tucker to 18. Alrighty guys, last box, here we go. Last box. So when I'm done here guys, I do have a couple orders. So Chad did get that last spot for that Topps Chrome filler. So I'm gonna cancel that second filler or the second box break and put back four spots. I think that's the best thing to do. So if I put that there, boom, get that off. Then we just gotta do one filler. So I'll make the other pack filler the last one. I'll do it after this.  I've got Royals hits, including autos. But yeah, I mean, no Bobby wait yet. But one last box to give it a shot. Jackie to 259, then Johnny Bench to 299. There's a redemption here too guys. Let me cover that. Aaron Judge 11 spot one going to Michael. Ed with Houston. All right, we got John and India to 36. Since Andy Red's going to add. Andre Jackson for the Dodgers, 33 out of 75. Rookie autograph. That's going to the Dodgers and Ed as well. Redemption there. Blake's now to 48. Podger's going to add. And here we go guys, last hit of the break. Show of the Reds autograph relic. Amber parallel. So that should be at an 18. I think me and you were looking that up earlier. Ronald Acuna, Jr. And that is going to Dustin and the Braves. And there you go guys. That was the break. Tons of numbered color. You have tons of hits. Still solid case with some good names. I think the first half did have a lot more one-on-ones and maybe a little bit bigger hits, but still solid here. I think the R&B did really well too, guys. I mean, a lot of hits over there on that side too. And then early on, we did get that one-on-one earlier, the White Will, which was nice, Joey Guado. And then, like I said, R&B, all this. Bo Bichet was nice. Triple relic there. All of these went to the R&B. So I appreciate it guys. Let me randomize the names to see who gets all the non-numbered bass for the R&B. And then we'll be finished with the break. Roll the dice. One-on-one, three, four times. Good luck. One, two, three, four. Kanban, congratulations. All the non-numbered bass will be going to you. Appreciate it guys. Number five in the store, Fresh Case, JaspysCaseBricks.com.


Okay, today we're going to make a seamless pattern. It's going to be something that you can use as a texture and repeats. It doesn't mean you won't be able to see that it's repeating, but you won't see the seams. So I have two examples here. I just took these with my cell phones, just a picture of some concrete from the sidewalk and a brick that's oddly shaped. And yeah, we're going to make seamless patterns out of this. I made them, I lowered the resolution because I figured this is for a game, so it doesn't need to be high resolution. Let's start with the concrete pattern here. What I'm going to do is I'm going to go up to image, canvas size, and I'm just going to make it 128 by 128 pixels. And normally I would try to go over here where it's all kind of one color, but just for the tutorial to make it stand out what I'm doing, I'm going to pick over here where one corner is darker. I'm going to say resize, and then you can see it resized the canvas, but the image is still here. What we want to do next is go up to layers and layer to image size. Now if I copy this and I create a new image, so that image was 128 by 128, I'm going to do 128 by 128, so it's 10 times that size. So this is my image here. I'm going to choose my fill bucket, and you may or may not know this, but a fill bucket you can fill a color, but you can also fill a pattern. Gimp has a bunch of pre-made patterns, but if you have something in your clipboard, the first option here is what's in your clipboard. So we have our concrete pattern. If I was to paste this in here, you can definitely see the seams, right? So we're going to remove those. So undo that.  Okay. And what that basically is, it basically took a feathered image of the center of the image here and put it in all four corners. I'm going to copy that now, go back here, fill bucket, fill pattern, and boom. Now you don't see the seam. Now if I back up, you can definitely see the repeating pattern over time, but you don't see the seam. Let's do it again with this brick image here. I'm going to go up to image. I'm going to go canvas size. I'm going to say 256 by 256 for this one, and you can see the little square there is what I'm cropping. I'm going to actually do a little bigger. I'm going to go 512 by 512. Center that up there. There we go. Resize. This one, definitely you'll see that. So if I was to, again, go layer, layer to image. See that. Open up a new and do 512, there we go. Yeah, it's kind of a large image. It's warning me that that's a large resolution, but I pasted that in there. You can definitely see where that corner is. Hopefully, again, I try to avoid things like that, but our filter map seamless should take care of that for us. Now I'll copy that, come back here and paste in that pattern. And there you go. There's no seam. Again, you can see the repeating of it if you back out enough, but if you move in, you're not going to see the seam of the image. Now again, this works for busy textures like this. This obviously won't work with something that's well-defined, but like concrete walls, plaster walls, stone, sometimes grass, depending on how directly you're looking at it. But I hope you found this useful. We're going to use this in upcoming tutorials to add some texture to some tiles we make. So thanks for watching. Films by Chris.com. That's Chris the K. I hope that you have a great day.


Today we're at Guide Dogs in Q on campus and we're here for the 13-week puppy class. All you guys are at different levels. Some are experienced puppy raisers, some are first-time and the puppies all learn at different levels. Your puppy's not doing what it's good and others are, don't stress. So when you want to get our pup into position, we're putting the food, getting them into the position and then getting them to sit stand or stay.  The reason why we have puppies come across these surfaces earlier in life is to desensitise them because they will come across all sorts of different surfaces so we don't want to have any fear-based behaviours. The idea behind the tunnel is to introduce an enclosed space, a different area to run through and it also helps with recall because the puppy raiser stands at the other end and cools the pup's throat.

Live from the wigwam in Phoenix, Arizona. It's theCUBE, covering Data Platforms 2017. Brought to you by Cubull. Hey, welcome back everybody. Jeff Frick here with theCUBE. We are down at the historic wigwam 99 years young just outside of Phoenix, Arizona at Data Platforms 2017. It's really talking about a new approach to big data in cloud put on by Koa Wool, about 200 people. Very interesting conversations this morning and we're really excited to have Karthik Ramasami. He is the co-founder of Streamlio, which is still in stealth mode according to his LinkedIn profile, so we won't talk about that, but longtime Twitter guy and really shared some great lessons this morning about things that you guys learned while growing Twitter, so welcome. Thank you. Thanks for having me. Absolutely. So one of the key parts of your whole talk was this concept of real time. And I always joke with people, real time is in time to do something about it. And you went through a bunch of examples of real time is really a variable depending on what the right application is, but at Twitter real time was super, super important. Yes, it is indeed important because the nature of the streaming data, the nature of the Twitter data is streaming data because the tweets are coming at a high velocity and Twitter pushing itself as a more of a real time delivery company because that way what happens is whatever the information that we get within Twitter, we need to have a strong time budget before we can deliver it to people so that people kind of, when they consume the information, the information is live out of real time, right? But the real time too is becoming obviously for Twitter, but for a lot of big enterprises, right? It's more and more important in the great analogy I've heard before is we used to sample data, used to sample historic data to make decisions. Now you want to keep all the data in real time to make decisions, so it's a very different way to drive your decision making process. Very different way of thinking and especially considering the fact that as you said the enterprises are getting into understanding what real time means for them and but if you look at some of the traditional enterprise like financial, they understand the value of real time. Similarly, the upcoming new use cases like IOT, they understand the value of real time like autonomous vehicles where they have to make quick decisions, healthcare, you have to make quick decisions because the preventive and the predictive maintenance is very important in those kind of segments, right? So because of those segments, it's getting really popular and traditional enterprises like retail and all, they are also valuing real time because it allows to blend in into the user behavior so that they can recommend products and other things in real time so that people can react to it so that it's becoming more and more important, that's what I would say, yep. So Hadoop started out as mostly batch infrastructure and Twitter was a pioneer in the design pattern to accommodate both batch and near real time. How has that big data infrastructure evolved so that one, you don't have to split batch in real time and what should we expect going forward to make that platform stronger in terms of near real time analytics and potentially so that it can inform decisions in systems of record? Yes, so I think like today as of now there are two different infrastructures, one is generally Hadoop infrastructure, other one is more of a real time infrastructure at this point and the Hadoop is kind of considered as monolithic or not monolithic, it's kind of a mega store where every data like similar to all the reverse kind of reach the sea, it kind of becomes a storage sea where all the data comes and stores there, right? But before the data comes and stores there a lot of analytics, a lot of visibility about the data from the point of its creation before it ends up there it's getting done on those river, whatever they call the data river, right? So you could get a lot of analytics done during the time before it ends up so that it's more live and the other analytics, right? I mean Hadoop had its own kind of limitations in terms of how much data it can handle, how real time the data can be, for example you can kind of dump the data in real time into Hadoop but until you close the file you cannot see the data at all, right? So there is a time budget gets into play there and you could do smaller files like small, small files writing but the name node will blow up because like within a day you write million files the name node is going to not sustain that, right? So those are the trade-offs, that's one of the reason we have to end up doing a new real-time infrastructure like the distributed log that allows you to, the moment the data comes in data is immediately visible within the three to five millisecond time frame. So this distributed log you're talking about would be Kafka and at the output of that would be to train a model or just score a model and then would that model essentially be carved off from this big data platform and be integrated within a system of record where it would inform decisions? So there are multiple things you can do, I mean first of all the distributed log essentially the data is kind of, you can think about as a data staging environment where the data kind of lands up there and once it lands up there when there's a lot of sharing of the same data going on in real time when several jobs are using some popular data source, right? It provides a high fan out in the sense like a hundred jobs can consume the same data, they can be the different parts of the data itself, right? So that provides a nice sharing environment. Now once the data is around there, now the data is being used for some different kind of analytics, right? And one of them could be a model enhancement because typically in the batch segment you build a model because you're looking at a lot of data and other things then once the model is built that models is pre-loaded into the real time compute environment like Heron then you look up this model and the serve data based on that model whatever it tells you for example when you do an ad serving you look up that model and what is our relevant ad for you to click then the next aspect is model enhancement because users behavior is going to change over a period of time. Now can you capture and incrementally update the model? So that those things are also partly done on the real time aspects rather than recomputing the batch and again and again and again, right? Okay, so it's sort of like what's the delta? Yes. Let's train on the delta and let's score on the delta. Yes, and once the delta gets updated then when the user behavior comes in they can look at that new model whether it's being continuously being enhanced and once the enhancement is kind of captured you know that the user's behavior is changing, right? And the ads are served accordingly. Okay, so now that customers are sort of getting serious about moving to the cloud with their big data platforms and the applications on them have you seen a change in the patterns of apps they're looking to build or a change in the makeup of the platform that they want to use? So that depends on, I mean typically like one disclosure is I've worked with Amazon and all the AWS but within the companies that I work for it's everybody, everything is on prem. So, but the thing is having said that like cloud is nice because it gives you machines on the fly whenever you need to and it gives a bunch of tools around it where you can bootstrap it and all the various stuff, right? So this works ideal for smaller companies and medium companies but the big company is one of these things that we calculate in terms of the cost wise how much is the cost that we have to pay versus doing it in house. So there's still a huge gap unless the cloud provider is going to provide a huge discount or whatever for the big companies to move in, right? So that is always a challenge that we get into because think about like if I have 10 or 20,000 nodes of Hadoop can I move all of them into Amazon AWS? How much I'm going to pay, right? So this is the cost of maintaining my own data centers and everything. I mean I would say like I don't know the latest pricing and other things but approximately it comes to 3x in terms of cost wise, right? If you're using our own on-prem and the data center and all the staffing and everything there's a difference of I would say 3x. For on-prem being higher? On-prem being lower. Lower? Yes. But that assumes then that you've got flat utilization that you're... I mean flat utilization but I mean cloud of course I have the expand out of scale and all the various things that you can give the illusion of unlimited resources but in our case if you are provisioning so much machines, most of the, at least 50 or 60% of the machines are used for production but the rest of them are used for staging, development and all the various other environments. So which means like the cost of the total cost of those machines even though like only 50% utilized still end up saving so much like one, operate out one third of the cost and it might be in the cloud. All right, Karthik, that opens up a whole can of interesting conversations that we can't, we just don't have time to jump into. So I'll give you the last word. When can we expect you to come out of stealth or is that stealthy too? It's kind of, that is stealthy. Okay, fair enough. I didn't want to put you on the spot but thanks for stopping by and sharing your story. Thanks, thanks for having me. All right, he's Karthik, he's George, I'm Jeff, you're watching theCUBE. We're in the Wigwam Resort in just outside of Phoenix, a data platform from 2017. We'll be back after this short break. Thanks for watching.


What's that Phil we're all screwed because science retired nothing any of us can do we're all screwed Resulting in an age of no science. We're booking flights Camp of science. We're leaving because of witches welcome to the new dark ages That's not true Phil. That's not dr. Fauci is not actually science incarnate no matter how many times he claims to be You get no no, but I shoot rockets into his face No, Phil. It's not because he passed on the title of being science itself to somebody else who is king here I mean, that's ridiculous You can't pass on the title of being science itself Honestly, where do you get your information Phil MSNBC?  Oh, I see Phil tick-tock is the platform that helps you realize you were actually a furry Today made me realize it's time for me to follow my true destiny your true essence being that of a ferret No, not this again. Yes, Francine this again Honestly, you can't be a ferret Phil.  I don't care.  Have you ever even seen a ferret? It was there. Oh, I see it's because it sounded cool Phil the furry ferret I'm a coffee table put some coffee on me. Oh, the hot of the bed. That's what I'm here for and the fact that it sounds cool must be a sign Honestly, I mean, it's not scientifically possible for you to be a human ferret Phil That's not possible We're talking about human cells here not isoliners circuits. I think you better stick to engineering lieutenant.


How come we only remember the great champions in wrestling history, but never talk about the lovable losers who hardly ever came close to capturing a title, let alone picking up a dub? Known in the business as enhancement talent, these poor dudes made a career out of doing nothing but making everyone else look like superstars. Now, it's a thankless job that somebody's gotta do. However, on occasion, at least from an entrance music standpoint, some of these simps were surprisingly shown some love. That being said, I'm Kevin Callis, this is Wrestling Behind The Themes, and here are 10 WWE Jobbers Who Actually Had Entrance Theme Music. A pasty-looking dweeb of a man, Dwayne Gill somehow managed to parlay his work as enhancement talent into an entertaining parody act that is still recognizable today. Appearing in the early 1990s as a regular jobber, on weekly WWF programs like Wrestling Challenge and Superstars, Gill rarely had success, but he kept getting up and coming back for more. Then, out of nowhere, on a November 1998 episode of Monday Night Raw, Dwayne showed up for work, came out to this giddy theme music, and shocked the world with a little help from his buddies in the job squad when he pinned Christian and won the WWE Light Heavyweight Championship. However, what came next was truly lightning in a bottle. Gill Berg, Gill Berg, Gill Berg, a comedic jab at WCWS kicker Goldberg, got over with fans so much so that Gill became the longest reigning Light Heavyweight Champion in WWE history. The only downside to Dwayne becoming Gill Berg was that he stopped using this Brian Zane certified 1980 sitcom slapper of a theme. Spreading the news that though the slovenly superstar may not have had the most impressive win-loss record, the Brooklyn brawler Steve Lombardi wasn't just some bum off the streets of New York City. His longevity as a loser endeared him to generations of wrestling fans because the journeyman jobber was also one of the WWE's most versatile performers ever. In addition to playing his regular role as the brawler, Lombardi wore additional masks and plenty of face paints over his career. As kimchi, the handler for Kamala the Ugandan Giant, Abe Knuckleball Schwartz, a disgruntled former baseball player, and he even donned the clown suit of Doink every so often. Dependable and trustworthy, brawler got probably the biggest push out of every ham and egg or on this list and wound up amassing a grand total of five different entrance theme songs from the year 2000 through 2006. Leaping Lanny Poffo might be the most famous of all jobbers on this list and I know what you're thinking it's not because of his special talent, if you know what I mean, and if you don't know what I mean then just type Lanny Poffo party trick into your Google machine and see what happens. The brother of the late macho man Randy Savage, leaping Lanny was actually a notch above other jobbers and also got some time on the stick, no pun intended, to recite his clever wrestling related poetry. However, Poffo would eventually turn heel and became known as the genius, adopting a highly intelligent and better than you persona. Now Lanny would continue to wrestle off and on, but was now primarily a manager first for Mr. Perfect and then for the Beverly Brothers, a tag team of siblings who looked nothing alike except for their starry purple tights and flowing blonde mullets. Leap Poffo did get the chance to prance down the aisle to this early 90s department store slapper. Before coming into his own as just incredible in ECW, the real life Peter Palaco spent nearly two years in the WWF as enhancement talent until Pat Patterson hired him to a full time contract in late 1994. Given his Portuguese heritage, Palaco was initially given the gimmick of a soccer player named Aldo Montoya. However, because Palaco didn't like soccer, the idea was scrapped and changed to the Portuguese Man-o-War character that strapped poor Montoya in some hideous ring gear, which looked like he was wearing an athletic supporter over his face with holes cut out all over for other various orifices. The fed pushed Aldo to the moon for about 5 minutes until he became the butt of many jokes, including the title of his entrance theme song called What A Jock. Getting over in one federation does not always mean that you'll get over in another, and the late Tracy Smothers is a prime example of a man who got the rub in one place, but not exactly the other. In the early 1990s, Smothers was a beloved babyface in Jim Cornette's Smokey Mountain Wrestling, who got all the glorious gymnasium pops throughout Kentucky, Tennessee, and the rest of Appalachia. However, when Smokey Mountain shut down and Cornette's Rasslers lost their jobs, some of their talent had to resort to become jabroni-jobbers in the WWF. And that's exactly what happened to Tracy as he became Freddy Joe Floyd, whose name was a rib on front office officials Freddy Joe and Gerald Floyd Brisco. And in keeping with Vince McMahon's fondness for ridiculing wild-eyed southern boys, Smothers was given this down-home entrance theme called Bowleg Cowboy that would never ever be classified as what you'd call a hillbilly hit. Now what could possibly be worse than Freddy Joe? Well, three frat dudes in sweater vests and khakis, of course. Looking like the shield went shopping at Old Navy, the mean street posse of Pete Gas, Rodney, and Joey Abbs were real-life bros of Shane McMahon, except for Abbs, and who grew up on the mean streets of Greenwich, Connecticut, which is known for its crime-infested, expensive high-end boutiques and drug-riddled hedge fund offices.  And you can't help but groove to their porno-like theme music called Posse, which for a trio of jobbers was pretty damn catchy. What started out to be just a one-time pairing, the team of Jim Powers and Paul Roma rose to prominence for a cup of coffee during the late 1980s. First referred to as a couple of young stallions on color commentary by the ever-so-elegant living legend Bruno San Martino, the name stuck, and these two studs were off to the races. Having some early success, the stallions embarked on one of the only storyline feuds that I can recall in wrestling history centered around a song and who could use that specific music as their entrance theme. Some pile driver crank it up in terms of pure musical quality is one of Jimmy Hart's best songs ever.  Before Maxwell Jacob Friedman was the king of the Jewish wrestlers, Barry Horowitz was the not-so-bright shining star of David, the pure personification of the word jobber. Horowitz was infamous for his self-congratulatory pat on the back before his matches. And even though, over his career, Horowitz would amass a lengthy losing streak as long as the Mississippi. In the mid-90s, he actually found success when he pulled off an upset win over Skip of the Body Donuts, completes with good old JR's call of Horowitz wins, Horowitz wins. This dub led to somewhat of a tiny babyface push for Barry. And he even got this mid-mid version of Habanageela, the celebratory Jewish folk song for entrance music. But unfortunately, all good things must come to an end. And Barry would soon return to counting the ring lights on a regular basis. Tiny kangaroo down sport. If you grew up in the 80s, then I don't need to explain to you the cultural phenomenon that occurred when the movie Crocodile Dundee hit the big screen. But for the benefit of you who aren't boomers, let's take a walk about down memory lane, shall we? Australian love swept across the globe and even into the WWF, where Vince McMahon tried to make his own version of McDundee in the form of one outback Jack, who was hardly a thunder from down under. Instead, Jack spent most of his days having a look at the lights while flat on his back. But no worries, Mike, because whenever he'd make his way down to ringside, he'd enter to the catchy song of Tiny Kangaroo Down Sport, which no cap is probably one of the worst themes in history. To say that the chinless wonder is an oddly shaped man would be putting it lightly. And speaking of light, at 5'7", and probably a $1.75 soaking wet, Ellsworth doesn't exactly invoke fear in the eyes of his opponents. However, the Baltimore, Maryland native somehow embarked on one of the most baffling WWE runs in recent memory. In this day and age, he was kind of the perfect jobber. And every man standing across the ring from superhumans like Braun Strowman. And for whatever reason, the WWE universe found his meek appearance and personality endearing. Now he lasted with the company two years longer than probably anyone thought, and even got this crunchy entrance music. Which is just as generic sounding as all the other heavy themes, but it's buoyed by the fact that it's associated with such a lovable, wormy little dork.


It takes a real commitment and a passion for it, I mean that's tied right under the willingness. And the key thing is if you listen to all those tapes and teachings, the central thing will be is that our mind is it. So that anything or anyone we see that even seems to represent charity is just a symbol in our own mind. We have called forth that witness from within our own minds. It eliminates the whole trip of the teacher, the pupil, the guru, the follower, all these things that the ego... I mean that's another part when Isranda is experiencing when she is feeling a real strong drawl to step out of everything that things are coming up like, what is going on? Is it a cult? Is it this? Is it that? Well, instead of feeling defensive in this and that, you can say, well, what's a cult to you? Well, a cult is where there's a central figure that's authoritative that has followers that gives orders and so on and so forth. The course, and if you really listen to the tapes over and over with the teachings, the whole point is bringing returning power, bringing empowerment to my own mind. There isn't a central figure. The ego can seem to hold figures up and say they are the authorities of this religion or the course of this and that, but that's not the teachings. The more you really look at what the course is saying, it's not saying that there is a figure outside your mind that is the Savior. It's saying that if you experience clarity that you are calling witness in your own mind to that clarity. That says a lot. That should be a powerful witness to your mind of where it's at. The ego will have all this evidence to, I'm not getting this and look at all the seeming conflict that I'm going through and the fear and everything, but if you're hearing clarity, if things are making sense in these ideas, whether you're reading it from a book, whether they seem to be coming out of someone's mouth or what, then that should just say, yes, this is a symbol for what I really want. I will choose this as my evidence for how my awakening is coming. Well, profound clarity is all I can describe it as. David symbolizes for me my own willingness because I know that at some level, I know that I have brought forth, David, as a witness to my mind's willingness to go very deep because there isn't anything apart from my mind. Essentially, I was just going to say that and I appreciate you bringing that up because I've needed some evidence for my willingness and so I'm real glad that you and David and you, Mary, and it's just an outpicturing of that. It's like I need to hang on to something that I am making progress, if you will, or it's like I need something to hang on to. I feel like I'm drawing witnesses, as never before, to my own heart's desire to just be very passionately and uncompromisingly committed to awakening. That's what's being reflected back to me in these letters that David was referring to, that we're beginning to receive from various corners of the country. But again, that is simply a witness to where my mind is and the willingness that's there and the desire that is there. It's mean it's the time collapse too that one of the fellows in the letters was writing, been in this community and had all these things and what about this instance and what about this instance and what about this instance and this instance and this woman wrote back this beautiful letter just bringing it back to the present and talking about all these associations, perceptual associations and everything and saying I can't relate to all those little separate specifics in this and that. It was just very gently, very clearly, very joyously, I mean very humorously just expressing in this letter, you know, that I can't see you like that. She says I'm seeing everyone is a projection of my own mind. I cannot blame or feel victimized by a master teacher or by this and that. This is a friend in Canada that we have been writing to a number of people and it was just wonderful. I mean I'm just like oh the heart chords are just dancing as I'm just reading the letter. The clarity, just the beautiful clarity, didn't get in to try to I could have said this or I should have said that and on and on and on but it just brings it back to the present moment. It's that quantum leap that Chris keeps talking about which takes it away from this long, long linear process like you're saying where I'm 75 will I still be asking this? I mean that can get depressing to even project it out over that long. It could just seem like oh the struggles that I seem to have had if I multiply those and I string that out, I don't, oh that can just seem overwhelming but it's that collapse to the incident. If I look at it as a collapse that's just the word I was going to use there shouldn't be any struggle you see and then there should be no projection into the future in terms of time or looking back at the past but it really regardless of when we meet or how we meet or whatever is just part of the flow and we won't be thinking in terms of that. Remember that idea you and I were talking about not too long ago of you know it's like we have thought that in looking to the past we could be so much smarter and wiser and responsible about the present and the future. You know and I was thinking of that as David was speaking and saying you know you're looking to the past and projecting that into the future and it's going to be another 35 or 45 years or whatever before I get it. Again it's an example of thinking that I can look to the past, believe something from the past and let it teach me something that I want to know about the present and the future and it doesn't work. That's also looking to the Holy Spirit and saying you know I can't really rely 100% on you. I mean I've got to look to my past some and I've got to do something about this and be smart about the present and the future based on what I know I know from the past. Edie was a wonderful witness to this having been with her family at the death of her father and she knew she wanted to be an instrument of peace and just over and over again as things came up what she kept hearing was be here just be here and she said essentially she didn't make any decisions she just felt like she was being orchestrated to go here do this you know come the funeral home and that what she was to be was just to be this loving presence throughout this whole experience and it was wonderful listening to her share about the joinings that she had with people even to the fact of when she walked in the funeral home and they were all standing in a line and her sisters in light the resistance that she had to that just like total resistance like she wanted it to be real informal and just people just standing around talking and so talk to someone about it and they said well this is how everybody gets to talk to everybody and they just want to see us so she thought well alright I can let go of that too and just kept surrendering and but she said that really touched me it's just like in the this is the invitation it's like be here now be in the moment and listen that's all that's asked


What's up everybody? Jason from jasmuscasebrakes.com.

The Newsdesk on SiliconANGLE TV for Tuesday, October 2nd, 2012. I'm Kristen Folletti. Facebook has partnered with data mining firm Datalogix and is preparing to reveal data to quiet its critics and show that clicks only tell half the story of advertising. Does this mean Facebook's IPO has been suffering because of a botched advertising model? We're now joined by SiliconANGLE Newsdesk editor Kristen Nicole with breaking analysis on Facebook's proposed advertising model. Welcome, Kristen. Good morning. So Facebook has conducted a new study through a partnership with Datalogix, and the findings reveal that fewer than 1% of in-store sales tied to brand advertising campaigns on Facebook come from people who clicked on an ad. So why aren't clicks translating into in-store purchases? Well, Facebook certainly has some issues with their advertising models and are facing a great deal of questions and criticism over the format that they've been using for a little while. And click ads, in general, have been one of those things where it kind of depends on the situation for Facebook's social network. It may not be the best use of their space and their layout. So with this new information that they're coming out, what they're really looking to address some of the issues that have been raised, especially since they've gone public and lost some major advertising deals like the one with GM. Tell us about what Datalogix is helping Facebook uncover. Well, some of the information that they're doing is really tied to the physical in-store retail purchasing behavior that consumers are doing and looking for those relationships between the online world and the offline world and how they kind of affect each other. Datalogix, Datalogix goes in and takes information from loyalty cards and brand recognition programs that kind of track consumer behavior within those physical retail purchases. And seeing how that relates back to advertising on Facebook's network will be very important because Facebook's branding, at least their advertising platform, is so heavily tied to those big brands. We spoke last week about Facebook's new gifting service and their dive into e-commerce. Can you tell us more about the variety of new advertising campaigns Facebook has attempted to roll out over the past several months? Several months, several years from Facebook beacon all the way up until the current initiatives. Facebook is constantly evolving and looking for the optimal ways to reach that balance between leveraging consumer data that has been unveiled on their social network and tying that back to the advertising sector. So, however, they can kind of get these two to work a little bit better together and provide value to the brands as well as the consumers. They'll have an easier time moving forward and getting these two to kind of meet in the middle without necessarily destroying the trust of their users and also being a benefit to the brands. Now, how can this help Facebook progress into mobile? That's a very good question and it's something that is going to be increasingly important for Facebook as they look to extend their platform into the mobile realm and advertising dollars in the mobile space just continue to increase. And with data logics in particular, it's also an area that they've had a focus on, especially as mobile is the technology that's considered a way to bridge that physical and online experience. Why aren't clicks relevant to brand marketers? Well, there could be a few different reasons why they may not be relevant. They may not translate directly into purchases in physical stores. Sometimes they translate into purchases online. And with the growing number of ways to interact with brands online and offline, there's going to be an increasing number of metrics that a brand can utilize to determine how to best reach out to those users. And especially in this emerging era of curation, user-generated curation, slides like Pinterest and others that have more bookmarking mechanisms and consumer intent built into that platform, are showing that there's more than just click-through rates to advertising. We know advertisers have relied on clicks largely because of Google's easy-to-measure advertising model that lets marketers reach consumers at the moment they're searching for a particular product. But Facebook argues that for brand advertisers, a more fine-tuned approach is necessary. So can you explain what Facebook feels is a more effective technique? I think it's an important distinction. And I think it's good for Facebook to continue down this path because the more information and the more metrics they're able to provide to brands, the more analysis that can be done. And the more effective their advertising platform can become. So one of the complaints that a lot of brands have had with Facebook's advertising over the years is that there's not enough of that information available to them to make the right decisions and the right calls as to how they should go about advertising on Facebook's network. So why is this information more useful in terms of feedback than total clicks? It just offers a bigger picture. It's more comprehensive. The more information you have at hand, the better of an educated guess you can make as to how you can best reach those consumers. So it's going to be very important for a lot of companies, even beyond Facebook, but particularly the brands that want to continue to market through this platform that they have as much information available as possible. Is this something that you feel companies are going to want to get on board with? Absolutely. I think any company that's looking to advertise on Facebook as many of those metrics as possible. And of course, what Facebook is going to have to do is manage their responsibility as to making sure that they don't violate user privacy in doing so. So this is going to be a question of user privacy and security. And Facebook being the massive network that it is is going to really be an industry leader in setting the bars for how user privacy should be handled when it comes to brand marketing. So on the flip side, if companies aren't on board, do you feel it's because of a privacy issue? It could be. It really depends on that company's own ethics and how they determine that they want to go about leveraging consumer data for marketing purposes. So it's one of those things where there isn't a lot of regulation in play quite yet. And the industry is self-regulating at this point. And we're really going to be looking to leaders like Facebook to set the tone or at least provide an example of how to or how not to do things. Now if this ad model does prove successful, could it be something that could potentially boost Facebook's suffering IPO at this point? It very well could be. Facebook needs to really determine how it's going to roll out its advertising structure and its platform in the future. And like we discussed earlier, mobile is going to be an important part of that as well. So whatever they can do to better achieve more revenue through this advertising channel, the better off they'll be with investors. In its plan, Facebook talks about offering advertisers an ideal number of ad impressions for a particular campaign. So what goes into calculating that ideal number? There could be a lot of things that go into calculating that ideal number from the different types of Facebook activity. And of course the social graph only continues to grow and the more metrics and data input points that can be integrated into this type of analysis, the better clear picture Facebook can get and extend that information on to the brands. You mentioned earlier that Facebook's partnership with Datalogics has raised some complaints from privacy advocates. Is there another situation where Facebook can say since users don't pay to use their site, information is fair game? Or could this be something that could lead to another court battle? I don't know if it'll go so far as a court battle. At this point, I know there are some privacy groups that are probing the FCC to look into the partnership between Datalogics and Facebook to see if this is really a case where user privacy is being respected. And when it comes to Facebook's messaging around this, education for their end users has always been a hurdle for them finding the best way to extend their services as well as the reasons behind the decisions that they make in terms of using that information that consumer activity for monetization purposes continues to be a challenge for them. Well, Kristen, we appreciate you having you on. Thanks so much for joining us today. Thanks, take care. And stay tuned for more news of the day and the latest breaking analysis here on SiliconANGLE TV.
