So you don't understand flat and polygroup, not a problem. This just means that it will apply the action to every face that is the same color and angle as the one that you left click. So if we go to this side, you see a blue polygroup. If we left click anywhere here, every face that is both blue and facing the same angle as the one I clicked is going to be affected. And the polygroups don't have to be touching each other. If we go over here to this green side, you'll see we have a green area here and one green polygon up here. And even though they're not connected, once we pick one and left click, you'll see all of them be affected. And that is because they are both green and they are both facing the exact same angle. So hope that helps and as always, hope you have a fantastic day and I'll see you around.


The meeting is called to order. How would you like this for smashing potatoes? Well, actually, some of our volunteers are going to use this to smash potatoes today. Garrett Erickson, library director, city of Sheboygan, Meade Library is the sous chef today. Thank you, Garrett, my God. Thank you. And he said, Marilyn, I don't know how to cook. I said, you don't have to. I can smash potatoes. I know that. Yeah, right. And he brought some pertinent books from the library and tell them they can check them out today. Yeah, and so I just brought a piece of paper. And if someone has an active library card, go ahead and put the barcode on from the back of the book, as well as your name and barcode from your library card, and I'll make sure they get checked out. So you could go ahead and take any of those if you'd like. And just know that we've got, this is just a little, little sample of what we've got at the library. We've got a lot more where that comes from. We've got a lot in lots of different formats. But if you, I guess I should ask the question, how many people here have an active library card? Oh, fantastic. Oh, hey, hey, hey. Love to see it. So thank you. We're of the age.  Awesome. Right, right. Thank you very much. That's great. Thanks here for being here and my volunteers. Faith Gruber. So I call her Sue, but her name is Pig. Pig Watson. Candice, I know that. Terry Snow, Jackie Barbow, and Francoise Pitzner, and thank you. And of course, our table decorations and craft. Her wonderful sister Janet Ray. Oh my God, thank you. You know I couldn't possibly do this without all of their hands and their brains working together. That really, the hands and the brains working together. And I still barely know what I'm doing. Pomegranate, pineapple, mashed potatoes, make-ahead mashed potatoes. You have that recipe. You can make them three to four days ahead of Thanksgiving or Christmas. They reheat beautifully. Mother put margarine and milk in her potatoes and they reheated okay. But these reheat beautifully. Then we go on to smoked potatoes, which Jim Binversi is going to talk about. He and Evie were at Stephanos. Well come on up and then you can tell. I'll just keep going down the line. We'll come back to you. Then purple potatoes, really purple potatoes. Marianne Schellinger and Bob Schellinger.  Potato chips, let's see. Sea salt, cooked kettle, regular and kettle cooked, mixed together. So we have mashed potatoes, smoked smashed potatoes, purple potatoes, potato chips, and then sweet potatoes. I'll have Jim talk about his smoked potatoes. And then Marianne can talk about her purple potatoes. Then I'll go back and talk about pomegranates. Got that? Potato, potato, pomegranate. I'll stand at this end. Okay Jim, go ahead. Well basically we went to Stephanos and they served us smoked potatoes. Kind of upscale place. Yeah. And I asked them how they made it and he told me all the steps to do it. So I went home and smoked some and made them and they turned out to taste the same as the ones that... What kind of a smoker do you use? Just the backyard smoker. With wood or cold? Wood. Wood. Well good. You know, I've given up that outdoor cooking. But thank God Jim's still doing it. Because you know the idea is that all the husbands do the outdoor cooking. Yeah, right. But you do. Okay, you will be surprised. We're going to take these smoked potatoes that are in the nest. Smash them a little bit. The peeling is on. They're very smoked and you'll each get a smashed smoked potato. Any questions about the smoked potatoes? I don't know how long it takes. Oh yes. How long? Well, half a day. Do the cooked potatoes go into the smoker? Well, you have to pre-boil them for like 10 minutes. Okay, so not completely cooked. Okay. See, you're all going to go home and do that, right? Marianne, let's talk about purple potatoes. Jay, I'd like to try some. And he brought us black potatoes, purple potatoes which are called blackberries. Blackberry, alright. Blackberry potatoes. They grow like Yukon potatoes in the ground with the tubers. Their plants are supposed to be taller and very, very, very stiff by. So you can actually tell the difference between the Yukons and the other potatoes in the ground. They have an average yield compared to other potatoes that you can plant.  Anything you can do with a Yukon, you should be able to do with this blackberry potato. It's a creamy texture. One thing is like if you're using beets, if you put it on a cutting board that's porous, your cutting board will be, you're done. It'll be purple. When cooking with them, you can bake, boil. We have it fried them. When you do boil them and then you drain the water out, no, you get no purple water. You get yellowy, green, gunky water. It's supposed to be like that. It's supposed to be bad because that is taking the toxins that the potato stuff brings up out of the ground. Because I told my brother-in-law, I said, I don't know what I did with this. And he said, perfect, you know, just dump it and work from there. You can peel it like a regular potato. They're very high in vitamin C, very high in vitamin K, and very high in potassium. So instead of a banana, you can have a purple potato if you wanted to do that. They have an average size potato is about 3.5 ounces. They are, yeah, that's about the same. They are about 79% water, which is kind of interesting. The mayor has joined us. Hello mayor. I heard this was Maryland's first cooking show at the new building. At the new building, right. I had to make an appearance. Checking out, make sure the space is conducive. Take any complaints anyone might have. You just gave me E. Quality control. Ryan, can you stay? I got a few minutes. Okay, good. All right. Mary Ann, continue. Sorry to interrupt you. So 70% to the 7% calories, but it does taste better with a lot of salt, pepper, and butter. Just like a russet, yeah. Very, very hard to domesticate. It's made actually from, Kui was talking. Peru? Tresois? And 2000 to 10,000 years ago. That's when they first started. So that's all there. It's not very popular in the States. It's now coming into gourmet restaurants and very popular using gourmet blackberry chips. Oh, chips. So I think it's kind of like... Wait till you see the mashed. Yeah, when you mash it, I won't give my husband's comment, but I decayed that way. So if you mash it using a blender or something, it looks like purple frosting. It does. Purple, purple, purple. Different. They suggested two really good ways of using them is baked. And we didn't do it this way.  The best way to bake these guys is to schlep them up in olive oil, really all over with your hand. Don't drizzle salt, pepper, and bake for at 500 degrees. Ooh. Yeah, that we haven't done. So these guys are going to go home and we're going to try that. I don't trust my stove or my walls. Well, that's at 450, yeah, that would be it. And then the interesting comment that I thought is if you're doing summer grill-outs with hamburgers, it's actually better serving this as a side instead of fries, which is interesting. You wash them, cut them in half, and again, do the olive oil thing, salt and pepper, and grill them on both sides till they're crisp. So enjoy the black, berry, the green ones. This one is cooked. I'm rubbing off the peeling. I'm tearing off the peeling. Yeah, it doesn't feel like regular potatoes. Well, it looks slightly purple.  So Garrett or Ryan, either one. Yes? I'm a big gardener. I've never grown potatoes, though, and the thing I tasted was they were so earthy and delicious. All I could say is how earthy they were. Well, I remember my grandfather growing potatoes in Minnesota. And big potatoes, my gosh, in that soil, even though it wasn't sandy soil. But people were giant and you'd cook them and they were so earthy tasting, because they were so fresh. Garrett, can you finish peeling this purple potato? Just put the peeling here, and then this one. Then add that and mash away, and let's see how purple we can get it. Okay. And I'll talk about... I've got a question. Yes, go ahead. Where can we find those? You don't. You're hoping that Mary Ann's brother-in-law will raise them again next year. Although, I'll bet if you looked online, there would be somewhere that you could find them. Correct. They're not. And so maybe her brother-in-law will sell them at the farmer's market. I have no idea. We can only hope. But I'm not going to deprive you of having a purple potato just because you cannot get them again. Okay. Make-ahead potatoes, smoked smashed potatoes, purple potatoes, potato chips, and sweet potatoes. You're going to have a lot of potatoes today. We have a whole pan of... Oh, there it is. There it is. I'll get this out of the way. And of course, our wonderful custodian here, who's also a cook. He's going to be my sous-chef in a couple of months. Juan Garcia. So he's been helping us this morning, too. Thank you, Juan. Thank you. Thank you. The cover-on for now. Yeah. Into my skillet, turning on, and you notice the fancy-schmancy outlets. You know, that might even work at home. Well, my ceiling would probably collapse. Okay. I'm going to simply use the rest of this. Vicki, can you bring some butter from your kitchen? We need butter in our sweet potatoes. Oh, you know what? Why don't I just use the olive oil that's here? Thanks. Can you stay under the door? Sure. Marilyn, did you want that whole piece? Sure, the whole piece. You bet. And then salt and pepper. Okay. And some people are extremely careful with peeling. And that's wonderful. Good for them. And we have lots of these done. And I have one more. And I think technically these may be called yams. Because what are called scientifically sweet potatoes look like a russet, and they're more pale in yellow color. The yams are the most orange, and I think the most flavorful, even though the words are used interchangeably. And of course, you can cut these as carefully as you want. Let's see. I'll bet there's a towel here. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you, Francoise. Thank you. Yep, that's good. All right. And pineapple. I didn't talk about the pineapple yet, did I? But I'm going to take that canned pineapple and put it in here. Then I'll go back to the pineapple, and I'll talk about the fresh pineapple, and put some more in here. This one will be kind of pineapple with sweet potato added. This big pan is sweet potato with a little pineapple added. When Vicki comes back, there she is. Because I forgot about the butter, olive oil. No, no. And a little maple syrup, local maple syrup. This one is, anybody read that without their glasses? May. Oh, Maywood. Well, I should have recognized that. It's Maywood. I did go out there this year at Christmas time, and I said, do you have any left? And they said, yes. So I bought 10 of them, and that's what most of my family got for Christmas presents with cheese and sausage. What's the easiest thing to give in Sheboygan? Food. What's the easiest for grandmas to give in Sheboygan? Food. Beats the heck out of shopping for blue jeans and shirts. OK, back to the pomegranate. Garrett, just give that a stir every once in a while. If it starts to smoke, pull out the cord. OK. Pomegranate. Oh, well, let's do the pineapple. We have pineapple slices. Oh, we thought these were fabulous as children. If we've got half of a pineapple slice, whoa. Crushed pineapple, which is OK for jello. And then the newest thing, which is already 60 years old, is the tidbits or chunks. And fresh pineapple. Now, it's kind of like mushrooms. When you're looking for mushrooms, the ones that are not perfectly white and plump, you kind of get one that have a couple of spots on them. And even the markdowns have a lot more flavor. Well, they're kind of the same with the pineapple. They shouldn't look too perfect. There should be some yellow on it. And it should be able to take this off pretty easy in the grocery store. That means it's pretty ripe. Let's see about, let's try this. Oh, yeah. Yep. So I carved this one. I'll show you how I carved it. There's a couple ways of doing pineapple. And then usually you peel this like that, and you get some eyes left because you're not ruthless enough. I will show you with the next one how to be ruthless enough.  Well, I'll show you a fancy way of digging out the eyes if you want to do it fancy. But being a cooking show, there should be some of that, right? OK. With a sharp knife, diagonal cuts to get rid of the eyes if you want to take the time. You can see there's a kind of fancy on this side. And if you do the whole thing, you have this fancy schmancy pineapple. Now, when you cut this, you have kind of a mess. So let's do the ruthless way of cutting the pineapple. I'll just put this in the... Thank you, thank you, thank you. Yep, I do need it back. I'm going to...  Because when I cut this ruthlessly, I'll end up with the same amount of edible pineapple as cutting it this way. But this will be neat pieces, and this will be a mess, and it'll take three times as long. But it'll be pretty. OK, we'll put this in the garbage, go ahead. Candice, lots of garbage. And sometimes the core is edible, and sometimes it's not. Sometimes it's hard as a rock, and sometimes it's not. Let's find out today. Mighty chewy. I don't want to eat that core today. Oh my, I'm going to be chewing for a long time. Excuse me. The peelings. What about the peelings? Yeah, you keep them.  Say that louder, Francoise. You caught her? OK, but I bet the class didn't hear. Take the peelings. Save it, put it in a pot of water, boil it, and then strain it, and you make marvelous pineapple juice. So don't throw that away. You want? I don't want to take it. OK, Garrett, do you want to finish cutting these? Sure. And then these chunks, small or large, can go down there with that. I think I'll wash my sticky hands. When we moved to Chippewa Falls, when I was six, first grade in 1947, 1947, gosh, 100 years ago almost. No, not quite. And we moved from Minnesota, and I started first grade in Minnesota. But Wisconsin was the first, and they had kindergarten. Now, I missed kindergarten because we moved when I was six, but that, gosh, mother discovered canned pineapple about the same time. My, what a treat that was, canned pineapple. Woo! Good work, Garrett. Then I'll go back to the pomegranate. You know we have pomegranate, pineapple, potatoes. Lots of pretty peas, and we're wearing purple and plum and pink. And Anne and Janet decorated the tables with pink and purple. Because also you remember from grade school, elementary school, alliteration, double alliteration and triple alliteration calls attention to what you're saying. And sure enough, that's what we're doing today. You want those in the skillet? Yep. Okay. All right. The messy, messy pomegranate. They say you can cut them in half and then knock them with a hammer and they'll fall out and three or four will. And then if you let them float, some of the white papery stuff will float and some of it will. But I think a more effective way is to cut off the top. That's true. And get the ones that don't look so perfect because they will be a bit more ripe. Then I peel this hard outer core off somewhat as much as I can. Now, this is overripe. We won't use that. And of course, I suppose I could cut it like this because I know my grandchildren say, oh, grandmother, how do you do that in your hand? And every one of you grandmothers know how to do it in your hand. No? Okay. So it's like this.   And then all of this, yes. Let's try it with this one. Yep. And some of it floats to the top and doesn't really make much difference. Now, some people have better luck with some of these. Look at these beautiful red seeds that just come off easily. And this is soothing for the brain at night. Look at these beautiful large sections that come off. Okay. My pomegranate people here. Okay. Jana, tell me again how to do this. The outside peel. Okay. Well, let's cut this. Like we did the pineapple. Of course, you cannot see anything with this pineapple in the way. You don't peel them. So if we cut this, then, but then we have the juice squirting all over the place. I'm trying to avoid the squirting of the pomegranate juice.  Let's see if we can do that. That's all right. At least four. At least four. Yeah. Oh! Look at that. Look at that. All right. That's how many seniors it takes to peel a pomegranate effectively. Good. It did. It did work. Good. Let's go to the make-ahead mashed potatoes which are in here. I've cooked potatoes. We're going to drain the potatoes as Vicki says, this pitiful colander with tiny little holes. Look at that. No wonder somebody threw it away. Okay. Let's put them back in here. Mashed potatoes. And the other masher is somewhere else. Okay. And into these mashed potatoes. Now this is your recipe that you have. For the stick of butter, a wad of cream cheese. Thank you. Yep. Oh, that's okay. I'll just use this one. Onion salt. How much onion salt? Salt and pepper. And as I always say every time I cook, I have Addison's disease. My adrenal gland does not work correctly and I have to have a high salt diet. Can you imagine? I do. My endocrinologist always says, Marilyn, are you getting enough salt? It's wonderful. And I can tell that the pepper is going to make me sneeze pretty soon. Okay, Garrett, you want to keep mashing? Sure. And I'm going to put sour cream in, but I had left over some ranch dip that I made with sour cream, so let's put that in there. All of it? Yep, all of it. With a rubber scraper and then mash. Okay. The make-ahead mashed potatoes really do a great job at Thanksgiving or Christmas in the refrigerator days ahead of time and then simply reheat in the oven. It works very well. And it was a woman that used to cook with me all at the garden house 40 years ago, and she had gotten the recipe from her family in Warsaw, from the church. It's up to you how ambitious you feel.  Okay, the purple potatoes. Purple potatoes. Marianne calls them black, but I like the word purple better. Purple potatoes. Wait until you see this. And we don't have our tasting spoons here. Just grab a chopstick and somebody tastes these. Garrett, you're our sous chef. You taste these for us with a chopstick. Yeah, yeah. All right. Use it as a spoon knot. I am not used to chopsticks. Then step back when you eat it. Here we go. Yeah, good. Tastes like potatoes. It does. It does. It tastes like... Excellent. They're excellent. Now this was just butter and I think I put a... with some cream cheese, or just butter and salt and pepper. But I think if they become available any place, or if you can get them on Amazon for Thanksgiving, don't you think, you know, the make-ahead mashed potatoes and the purple.  And yep, they are. We can dump those into this. Yeah. You need... Should I pull? I'll pull the plug for you. Yeah. Or vicking well. Thanks. Okay. And a little bit of toasted... Well, they're not toasted. They're sauteed with butter and salt and pepper, walnuts. Walnuts. And we did have... Let's see here. Maple syrup was put on these in the oven. But I think we should put some Grand Marnier on now, don't you? Garrett, I can't get that open. Oh, boy. Oh, let me get the corkscrew. That was stuck. Now you gotta drink it all. Yeah. Let's see if I have a corkscrew in here. Let me work on that while you move on. Yep. Yep. Do, see what you can do. Yep. And of course, my corkscrew is not in my tool chest any longer. Okay. The smoked smashed potatoes. That's the purple. We need... Yep. Let's do it in front of them. No, you don't need to. There's kind of clean this end so we have some more room. Thanks. Yep. Just kind of... Oh! I didn't use the ricer. We kids were thrilled when mother had a ricer. Oh, my gosh. That was fancy, schmancy to have a potato riced right onto our plate. Of course, they taste kind of airy and bland, but being riced was great treat. Now, mother's head was bigger and it had that red edge. Remember that from 60, 70 years ago? Yes. I remember one. Good. Good for you, Ryan. Okay. Can you... The cork is for that too if you want to go back to that. Oh, okay. And then if you lift this and put it over here so that they can start smashing into these pans. Okay. Okay, Peg, you're on. Smashing. Oh, wonderful. Yep. And who else is smashing with you? I'll smash. Okay. We're going to smash her. Here's the other one. We can smash. Okay, they're going to do it. I want the big one. Yeah. And put them in the pan to smash them. Where's the other pan? Oh, you want both of them over there? Sure. Yep. Okay. Right. And just barely smashed. Oh, barely. Yeah, barely. Barely smashed. Less than that. Less than that. There you go. That's the right amount. You guys have more here as well. Yeah. Okay, back to the grand manier. Mother and Dad always had a bottle of Morgan David in their cupboard. But it lasted six or eight years. Because it only came out at Christmas time when the one time of the year that they purchased seven up. Now we could, I wonder if we could light this. We could try. Let's see. I doubt that it's warm enough, but let's try. I don't think it'll be warm enough, but we'll try anyway. Turn off the lights. There's a little bit of fire. In February when we do lots of flaming foods, we'll do more fire. Nope. Just smash on here. Okay. Smash on there. And do we have more trays of any sort? I didn't see any at all. Let's go to the cabinets. Here. Nope. Here. Here you can smash on this. Oh, yeah. Jim, regular potatoes from the grocery store, right? What's that? Your smoked potatoes are regular. Yes. Yes. Yes. Same here. Right. I don't know about smoking in one stove in one's kitchen, that seems. Okay. All right. I think it's time for us to eat some food. Any questions about sweet potatoes with pineapple and walnuts and maple syrup and Grand Marnier, varieties of potato chips? Yep. Purple potatoes. Thank you, Mary Ann and Bob. Smash potatoes. Thank you, thank you. And they approached me, and it was their idea, and I said, oh, yes, please do. This class would love to learn all of these new things. And the maker had mashed potatoes. Then, of course, if anybody wants some of this mish mash, help yourself. But the idea there is just to show you how to do pomegranates fairly neatly. No, you're grown adults. I'm not going to call on the tables. You're not in elementary school.


Nigerians have been charged to take ownership rather than continue to vandalize public facilities. The charge was given at a one-day sensitization program organized by the Merritt Chapel of the Nigerian Union of Journalists at Doe State Council in collaboration with the State Command of the Nigerian Security Civil Defence Corps. Before today we have been doing this in the state. We have been sensitizing members of the public. We've gone to so many places, crowded places to let people know of the importance of protecting critical national assets and infrastructure of governments. And for this we cannot stay in our offices. We have to go out to the public to engage with communities, with traditional leaders, with religious leaders, to join us in creating awareness. For them to be able to create awareness, we need to pass the knowledge to them, to enable them to cascade and take it down to members of their communities. For those who vandalize government properties, public utilities, the Philip for their doing the wrong thing is the part of non-intervention, by way of punishment, or by way of restraint by the authorities that should do so. So doing it and telling them is the way to stop vandalism. As there's no need for us to destroy the property even when the government is not giving us what we want. But it's not nice for us to resolve to set up by destroying our own property. It's like you building a house, going back to the same place and destroying it. I don't think it's a work on development. And I want to give this opportunity again to advise the youth in those states to come together so that we will work with the government. In any area that we know the government is not doing well, we can always approve them in the right way by not destroying the government property. So for me, I felt it was proper and timely for us to have a sensitization program to enlighten some of these people who are perpetually involved in vandalizing government property, vandalizing public property. I had to consult with my group and we all agreed that we should have an advocacy program to bring to bear before the society to renew that commitment on the society, on the need to protect public property.

This is So Tech Hawaii, the Trinity Matters here. I'm Marcia Joyner, and we are navigating the journey. Navigating the journey is dedicated to exploring options and choices in life. Today, we will journey down many different paths. Our guest, Hawaii State Senator Willis Barrow, has championed more paths than I can count. However, today we will begin with the completion of the state legislature special session. With September 15 deadline to submit the financial plan to the federal government, lawmakers were really busy scurrying around to get that done. So I'm going to ask the senator, what does that mean to us?  And will we complete this thing or not? Okay, Senator Esparro is a dear friend. He's been in the legislature what, 19, 20 years? 18. 18. Senator Esparro was, he worked for the city and county. He worked, he was a representative and a senator. And now he's going to run off and give up his seat to run for lieutenant governor. Is that correct? That is correct, Marcia. Let's go back. Okay, let's go back. Now, first, let's complete the special session. What happened? Well, as you mentioned, we did have a September 15 deadline from the federal government and that if we didn't have a financial plan in place, that they would begin the process of possibly terminating our 1.3 or 4 billion dollar deal where we have already received $800 million from the federal government and we're hoping to get an additional 600 million plus. So at the end of this session in 2017, there was a stalemate. The Senate wanted to extend the general excise tax and the House had come up with a plan for the TAT and the general excise tax. The TAT is? The TAT being the hotel tax, the transient accommodations tax. And because that was offered at the very, very last minute, we really didn't have time to get it and discuss it. So the rail bill essentially died. Many people thought that it would pass but it died. That's the issue of the special session. And the mayor advocating and lobbying saying we need a financial plan that we could provide to the federal government. What was on the table, what was agreed upon was there was a compromise bill. We will extend the general excise tax an additional three years to right now, it's 2027, it'll be to 2030. The general excise tax is only for Oahu? Oahu, correct. And this is what we're paying now and frankly most people don't even know that they're paying this half percent. The new twist is the transient accommodation tax and that will be increased to 1% for 13 years also to 2030. But that transient accommodation tax and that's statewide, which means it includes the neighbor islands. That we will be able to get more money up front. So almost like a mortgage you have more money up front, you put more money down and then you have less interest over the long run. And we're supposed to, with this plan, save hundreds of millions of dollars in interest. The opposition to this came from the hotel industry, of course, and the neighbor island. But we need to make it clear, it's the neighbor island visitor. So it's possible that local people will get taxed if they stay in these units, especially the high price ones. But I don't know how many of our local residents are going to be staying in $400, $500 rooms. Yeah, it's only for the visitor, it's not for the local people. Well, no, it's on the neighbor island. It's for whoever stays on the neighbor island hotels. And if a local person does, then they have to pay it. How much is that one percent? We're talking like for an additional, for a room for two, maybe an additional $2 a room. And if there's two people in it or three people in it, then per person it even goes down. The majority of the people that will be paying this will be visitors. And it's not as if we're taxing income tax or corporate tax. And the hotel industry, you know, they're concerned that it will impact the tourism industry. But from what we've been able to see over the years in the past that, you know, with the tax increases, people want to come to Hawaii because this is a paradise, right? For many of them, it's a once in a lifetime. And you save for those once in a lifetime type of vacations. And for many who come and continue to come, they do so because they love Hawaii, and this is a beautiful place to visit. So at the end of the day, you know, we compromised. Both sides wanted something different. We were able to come up with a solution. And now we have enough funding for all the tent purposes to get to Almona shopping center. Now, down the road, if there's talk of extending the rail to UH Manoa, or even into Kapolei and Kapolei City, then the legislature and the city council will have to vet that and discuss it. So it's possible that we might take another bite at the apple, but in terms of the current plan, hopefully the rail will be completed by 2024-25 from Kapolei to Croc Center to Almona shopping center. Okay. Good. I guess that's good. If you support rail, yes. And there's going to be many opportunities. I have so many questions about the rail, but let's don't. That could be another segment. That's a whole other segment. Or two or three? Yes. They've been talking about that for years, so we can't. But at least you can meet the September 15 deadline. Okay. Next, let's talk about you. Now, I have known you since you worked for the city and county. And I have watched you champion so, so many bills and projects and what have you. And now you're talking about leaving the Senate for anybody that doesn't know, if you run for an office, a local office, you have to give up the one you have. Yes. If you run for a federal office, you do not. Correct. And that's called the Fossil Bill, if you remember. Correct. I'm in midterm. The key is I'm in midterm. Yes. And so you would have to give up being a senator to run for a lieutenant governor. That's correct. And that's what you want to do. Yes. You know, I've thought long and hard about this. And I met the, excuse me, at the stage in my career where I need to determine and decide what I want to do for the next 10 to 15 years. And I feel that I've had a successful legislative career. People have asked me, do you really want to run because you've done so well and we like you there. But I look at it from the perspective that I need to be able to give back more. And I feel that as the lieutenant governor, as the number two person, I could give back more. If you like what I'm doing now as a state senator, Marsha, imagine what I can do as the number two person in state government. Well, that's exactly it. That was my next question. Usually, well, since Ben Caetano was the last lieutenant governor, that was really active. So that's a nothing job. Tell me how you feel. What can you do as lieutenant governor that makes it a real job and not just somebody filling up space? That's a very good question. What I tell people, it's not the position, the title, state rep, state senator, lieutenant governor. It's the person. So if you know my style and my personality and how I have been in the legislature, I will continue that. I will be vocal. I will be an advocate. I will get behind issues and causes. Now, being a partner of the governor, I will not step on his toes. I will not embarrass him or her. And what I want to do is find the issues that need work because there are hundreds of issues out there that need help. And I can see myself continuing, for example, law enforcement reform and changes, prison reform, prisoner rehabilitation, building an aerospace industry, expanding the medical marijuana program, building a hemp industry, working on job creation with science, technology, engineering, math, math. So I would tell the governor that let me know what you want me to do as your second in command. However, if there are not too many things, I have a list and I will work on them because that is what I do as a lawmaker. And you have to understand the lieutenant governor is, in the primary, elected separately from the governor. And I am still an elected official by the people of Hawaii. And if I'm privileged enough to be lieutenant governor, it's because the voters want me to continue what I'm doing and appreciate it. Okay. You gave us a long list here. Yes. But the thing that comes up right away is the hemp industry. Yes. Knowing what I know about hemp, that is such what it can be. Yes. What it can be as an industry. For instance, if we just planted it at Barbara's point, it would clean up, it would clean up the pollution. Soil remediation, yes. So what's the holdup? Why can't we get behind this and really make it into something? Why can't we have treeless paper? What's the holdup? Actually, we've made significant progress due to the federal government passing Congress the Farm Act. And in the Farm Act, states will be allowed to create a hemp industry, you know, research and development. But part of the Farm Act includes marketing. And I had a conversation with the Department of Agriculture staff. And that marketing entails a farmer, a company being able to grow hemp and create a product and sell the product. What this means is this can all happen in Hawaii by 2018. That's six months. Exactly. This is very exciting news. It is exciting. I don't know if too many people know this. But what I'm getting at is that there was an article in today's Civil Beat about the emergency of agriculture. The need, especially when you look at the storms around the world and you think, we need to take care of ourselves. So we need all kind of agriculture industry. Right. And the problem at the federal level is cannabis. Cannabis is still a schedule one. And that's the issue. Since cannabis is still schedule one, hemp is part of cannabis. Yes. Let me say to our audience, the plant, the cannabis plant, or the hemp plant, at one level is cannabis. And another, as it moves up, it's hemp, it's cannabis and hash hash. Right. So they come from different parts of the plant, different chemicals are in different parts of the plant. But the hemp does not have the same thing as the cannabis that makes you high. Exactly. So this is so different. Hemp has low THC. Right. So you've got, I'm sorry, you have the CBD and the THC. The THC is what gets a person high. Hemp has very low THC and in some cases it's non-existent and you can't get high from hemp. That's why hemp is grown throughout the world. You could buy hemp products in the United States, but you can't grow it. And that's where with the new farm act, this is all going to change and Hawaii is poised for 2018. Okay. We have to go to break and when we come back, we will talk more about some of the other projects that are new Lieutenant Governor. I've already ordained you as a new Lieutenant Governor. Thank you. We'll be right back. This is Think Tech Hawaii, raising public awareness. Some say scuba divers are the poor man's astronaut. At Dive Heart we believe that to be true. We say forget the moon. Dive Heart can help children, adults and veterans of all abilities escape gravity right here on Earth. Search DiveHeart.org and imagine the possibilities in your life. We are visiting with my dear friend Senator Will Sparrow and we were talking about of all things hemp. But that's the biggest conversation in Hawaii is hemp and medical marijuana. Yes. So yesterday we saw the proposal of how to purchase medical marijuana from the dispensary using your smartphone. Now, because medical marijuana, all marijuana is a Schedule 1 narcotic, I guess that's what they call it, which it isn't, it's a weed, but that's a different story. So it is a cash business. None of the banks, because the banks are controlled by the federal government, can take money from the dispensaries, the labs, etc. And because it's a cash business, it's also, well I know the one dispensary that we visited, they have a security person to walk with you to your car so that no one, and then they have an ATM machine so you don't have to carry cash with you. So there's all of these securities. So now they're talking about an app for your smartphone. Yes, the eGate administration working with a credit union out of Colorado is looking at cashless transactions at these dispensaries for fear that people might try to steal or rob these dispensaries. And it would do basically an app or debit card type of a situation. Personally, I'm not sure yet on my opinion on that whether it's good or bad because I know many people would probably still want to go in there with cash. And there's no other place that I'm aware of, and maybe you could help that we tell a business or a company that you can't accept cash. Well I think they have to still accept the cash. No, they're looking at no cash at all. Because there are a lot of people that don't have smartphones. I have a dear, dear friend that she has a smartphone but she doesn't know how to use it. I understood, but to deal with that what will happen is the dispensaries will work with the individuals at the dispensaries. So you would still have to log into an app, but the dispensary would do that for you and you could use the dispensary's tablet or computer for the transaction. That's what would happen, because you have to be present in order to do the transaction. So, well, okay, now I have a debit card from the bank, but I have to put money in the bank first before I can use my debit card. So how do you deposit money into that Colorado credit union? Well, I haven't seen the system yet, but I'm assuming that through the app you'll be able to do all that. So patient or caregiver of the patient would have to have access to an individual app that you are logged into. And that's really the crux of it all, that you must be online in order to do this transaction. And my understanding, no cash at all. So I'm still, okay, but I have to have money somewhere for the app to take the money out of my account. In some place, I have to have some money. Right, and like I said, I'm sure the app, once you get into your app, then you'll be... Would you take it from my local bank? Yes, that's my guess, that somehow everything will be connected, because this is a system that is already being used on the mainland. Oh, okay. So they work that out? Yeah, it's not a new system. But I don't think in the mainland it's mandatory, it's an option. We may be the first state to make it mandatory that every dispenser must use this app system. Well, my question then becomes, if I am the owner of the dispensary, then I have to pay a Hawaii state tax. And that's not with an app. They want a check or whatever. But that's another issue then. Yes, but they have to pay the state tax. So how do they pay that if all of their money goes... Well, I'm assuming that's built into the system. That will be built into the system. But I'm sure the state wouldn't go for this if they couldn't see that they were going to get paid. Correct, right, so you have to figure that at this stage, all the eyes are dotted and the T's are crossed, and this system has been reviewed and analyzed, they've checked with the other states, and our state has determined this will work for Hawaii. Okay, now real quick, tell us, run through some of these other projects you have. You talked about prison reform, housing, low-cost housing. Yeah, I mean, in terms of prison reform, the big issue next session is going to be what are we going to do with OCCC? This is the jail in Kalihi, and there's talk of moving it to another location and or rebuilding it more modern, more efficient, because it's a very old, dilapidated facility, and we need to do something with it. If we move it, it could cost us $600 to $700 million to replace it. I'm of the opinion, though, whatever we do, one part of the equation has to be rehabilitation and a re-entry center, because every inmate, or at least 96%, 98% of the inmates are going to be released one of these days. So do you want an inmate who has had programming and rehabilitation, or one who hasn't? The answer is obvious. We want an inmate that has been rehabilitated or has gotten some help, and that's why one of the issues I'm pushing for is the re-entry center. That's great. I like that. Next, about housing, because we have so many homeless people, and so many of them are working, but they can't pay $1,800 a month rent. Well, there's many things going on in the housing field, but one of the big issues is to just build more housing. Back to him. Yes, and as a matter of fact, I believe there is a home in Maui that is built out of him, so him could be a building material, absolutely. But it's going to take us probably 7 or 10 years to build enough housing, because our need on Oahu is $22,000. One area I want to push for the next 10 years, 22,000 units. But I've been pushing in others for a safe zone. Basically, this is a legal place where the homeless can go, because what's happening is, all we're doing is pushing them from one area to another. The city council passes a no-sit and lie zone, so when you say, okay, no sitting and lying in this area, what do they do? They just go to the next community. And we're just pushing them around. As a matter of fact, you remember Kaka Ako Park in that area? It used to be a ghetto in a shanty town, and we cleaned it up. The homeless are back in Kaka Ako Park, because they have nowhere to go. So Mayor Kim on the Big Island recently opened the first government sanctioned safe zone. And it appears to be working. I had a conversation with him about a week ago, and he said, right now it started with 32. He's looking to expand that island-wide on the Big Island to maybe up to 500 homeless. I'd like to see the state and Arsene County also create a safe zone somewhere. Sand Island would be an ideal location where I think we could use up to 20% of the park and easily house 1,000 homeless. And then at this safe zone, you give them the resources, the assistance, the help that they need to transition. So basically, a safe zone, all it is, is just another way of saying a transitional housing area. Now, does that have to go through the legislature? What did it take to get that started? It would have to go through the legislature and or the city council. And there's been attempts, but it hasn't been successful. Last year we did pass a bill that is mandating that there will be a working group to look into the safe zone issue. So that's a good start. And hopefully, I actually need to check to see if this working group is up and running because we do need to have it up and running. Yes. Not just on paper, but real people doing something. Right. And hopefully, they can have a recommendation by 2018. And then we still need to put money into our infrastructure because along the rail line, there's state land. UH West O'ahu, Mayor Wright, Ivalet Housing, the stadium, Honolulu Community College and Leeward Community College. We are the biggest landowner along the rail line. And there's some public schools among them. Yes. But what we need to do is to invest money in infrastructure in the sewers, in the sidewalks so that there's capacity to build high density communities, transit oriented development. And that's part of the equation as well. Okay. We have one minute to go. What else you've got? Real quick. Well, I think the final one is the aerospace industry. I've been working on this for many years. By next year, Hawaii could have a federal spaceport license. And this will be the beginning of space tourism where out of the Kona Airport, people will be able to fly into lower earth orbit, go into basically outer space and come back down. It'll be a niche market for tourism. Wow. Yes. Next year, huh? Next year we expected Kona. It was to get the license. And then the companies need to come in and build. Exactly. Exactly. Wonderful. That's probably two, three, four years out. Okay. So now you promise me you will come back because that's a lot. So we need to talk about all of that. There's many more things we can talk about and I appreciate the opportunity, Marsha. Please, please do come back. Thank you all so much for being with us as a pleasure with the senator. And we look forward to visiting with you again. Aloha.


When we think of ecology, we tend to associate it with the preservation of nature. However, is it a possible goal for humanity to preserve nature? Well, actually, it is an illusion that we are able or will ever be able to preserve nature. And where does this illusion come from? This illusion comes from a very common experience we all share when living in big cities, which is going to public parks. We might go to public parks once a week, once a month, once a year, but certainly all of us who live in big cities have been to parks. And what happens in parks that creates the illusion that we might be able to preserve nature? The first park to create this sort of illusion was the Hyde Park in London, because the Hyde Park was the first park to suppress the distinction between the space inside of it and the space around it. And as we can see in this drawing from 1733, there are two different areas in the Hyde Park. One, which is filled with straight lines, represents the divisions between the spaces within and without the garden. And the other half represents a total continuous space which creates an environment that imitates nature. The Hyde Park was made to resemble a section of the River Thames, which crosses the city of London. And it creates a sort of river inside the park. And from within the park we have the illusion that London itself is part of the park, continues the park. And the Hyde Park established an international model that was adapted in other cities all around the world in the 19th century, creating this illusion that the space around these gardens are a continuous space with the garden itself. We can experience in cities such as St. Paul when we go to the Parc du Bira Poeta. And we have this illusion that the city itself goes from the park, starts inside the park. Well, a park is a garden, and as a garden, it keeps a constant shape inside of it. And in this sense, parks and gardens are totally different from nature. Nature never has a stable form. Nature is always catastrophic. And nature keeps changing all the time. When we think of ecology, we might have to think about going against nature.  Ecology, therefore, is not about preserving nature. Ecology is about preserving the conditions for human life. If we have to face the real ecological crisis we are living in, we have to redefine our concept of nature. And we have to establish a distinct separation between gardens and nature. Because if we are to face the real nature, we have to understand what we are looking for. And what we are looking for when we talk about ecology is the preservation of the human species.


The following is a presentation of TFNN. The morning markets kickoff with your host, Tommy O'Brien. Now, Tommy O'Brien. Good Friday morning everybody. I'm Tommy O'Brien, coming to you live from TFNN just after 9 a.m. Eastern time. We got about 30 minutes to go until the opening bell and quite a market as we continue to the downside in pretty dramatic fashion. We're going to kick things off with a weekly of the S&P folks. I've been talking about this trend line for a while now and that is quite a decisive break. That is quite a decisive breakout on a weekly basis. On the S&P, you can't ignore the acceleration we got this week, folks. You're talking about a high of this bar, 46.71, with 230 points below that price level right now, back on a 15-minute basis. Quite the acceleration yesterday. You almost can't overstate the move we had. You're talking about an intraday high yesterday of 45.94. Less than 24 hours ago, folks, you were trading 150 points higher than you're trading at right now. We're still off the lows that we got at about 10 p.m. Eastern time last night at about 44.30. We're trading at 44.44. You're down 2.30% in the S&P. NASDAQ 100 down more than a full percent. You're trading 14,684. The Dow is off about 4.10s right now. The Russell off about 14 points. Bitcoin is going to get a lot of headlines. Coming into Friday, coming into the weekend, Bitcoin, yesterday, sitting pretty comfortably above 43,000 this morning. Not so much the case. You're down $4,400. Bitcoin really accelerates with the market. Market makes a high at about 11 a.m. Eastern time yesterday. Things really fell out for Bitcoin towards the end of the day. But man, you had quite an acceleration overnight as well. You ended the trading day yesterday in Bitcoin, about 41,400. You see the acceleration there on a 15-minute basis. Now no huge fundamental news other than China putting the, excuse me, Russia, putting the clamp down on cryptos, calling it a threat. And I would say anybody, especially, it's talking to my dad out there this morning, any government, ourselves included, Western democracies included, but especially a country run by somebody like Putin. The last thing he wants is to lose control of the money supply and have his citizens able to act and do things without it. But that same thing goes for Western democracies, Europe, et cetera, are fed. Keep your eye on that one, because we have just crossed a critical level. It's the second time we have, you put Bitcoin on a daily. And I had mentioned, I mean, when we broke below this 40,000 mark, you're going back to January 10th. So you're talking about 11 days ago. Seems like Bitcoin had saved itself, bounced off that $40,000 area. Just like that though, pretty decisive break when you look at it. Really decisive since November 10th. You're talking about just over two months, folks, 70,000 to 38,000. And next stop seems all but assured to be 30,000 on this. Now that we've broken a couple of times below this, we have the markets escalating to the downside right now. You got Bitcoin at 38,000. And you can see there's nothing in between about 40,000 and 30,000. And that was the run it had from July to basically August. And one month span. Now you back it up a little bit further on a three-year weekly. That's where it looks a little bit clearer. 30,000, the price point. That's where we came into the year 2020. We'd give it all back from 2020. And man, you break below 30,000, 10,000's in play, like instantly too. Because this run it had on a weekly basis, folks, you went from 10,000 on October 12th to ending the year at 30,000. In less than a quarter, you rose from 10,000 to 30,000, kept going to 60,000. We're on our way to 30,000. And if we cross 30,000, you don't have to be a master technician, folks, to see where Bitcoin goes and it's 10,000. Let's jump over to Ethereum as well. Ethereum, not going back as far, but quite a decisive break as well. Now you are right back to where you were on September 20th on Bitcoin trading at 2700. You break below this level and you're talking about 1700, 1800, the pullback we got in the middle of June and July on Ethereum. All right. Let's jump to crude, crude, holding up relatively well with everything else going on in this market, crude. Right up against these highs we had back in October. Now this is a three-year weekly to see the action we have. You can see crude settling at a new normal. You put crude going back a five-year weekly above where we were at even in 2018. And you check it out on a monthly basis. Pretty similar action in terms of Bitcoin. You have really easy to spot price action on these charts, folks. We're breaking through areas right now on crude. Next stop is $100. We haven't done anything. Look at the fall-off we had back to 2014. Everybody's talking about $100 oil. Oil can't even trade lower with the market. Just dropping out of bed in a big way. And nonetheless, we got crude sitting at $85. Next stop seems to be $100 on that in similar fashion to Ethereum. Any time you break a very critical area, folks, and be on that critical area, traders have a one-way trip to a certain price as in right when we broke above, basically, that high that we got back in 2018, when we break above $76.90, there is nothing in the way between $76.90 and $100. And it did that in the span of about four months, going back to 2014. 2014, remarkable. You're going back to 2014. All right, back to a daily on the charts. We check out gold. Gold's behaving relatively well as well, $18.42. Gold's struggling for a bet. With the market in turmoil, gold shows a little bit of appreciation, finally, in the face of some inflation that's pretty shocking. And we jump to the all-important notes and bonds, catching a little bit of a bounce there. Oops, excuse me. In the note and bond, we got the 10-year right now, a little bit indeed, right? Quite a bounce for sure. Now, this is where it gets interesting.  You have yields actually decreasing now as the floodgates go to the safety of bonds. Now, if that happens, it's going to send rates back down, which is pretty interesting. And it has quite a rise from where we were Wednesday, folks. You're talking about a full point and eight ticks in the 10-year right now, trading at $1.2811. All right, and let's get to quite the main course last night after the bell. Maybe this is the freak out that's going on with the Nasdaq right now. And it might be because Netflix is not stopping, folks. We're trading at $400. You were trading at $520 yesterday. That's $120 per share that Netflix shareholders are going to lose just from where it was at about 1 p.m. Eastern time yesterday. They missed on subscriber numbers. And that's all that matters to this company. I mean, I'm a big Disney bull. Disney underperformed the market, and they are trading lower. We'll get to them shortly as well. Last year they underperformed, they're trading low with Netflix this morning. But Disney has a lot more going on. So when they come out with their numbers, the market is heavily interested in what they're doing for streaming. But they're also heavily interested in their parks that have struggled. They're interested in the movie theaters that they are releasing their films in that aren't opened yet. Netflix does one thing. They sign up people for streaming, and that's it, period. They pay for production. They pay for content. They sign people up for their service, and that's it. So it's really simple. Even though they made the numbers last night in terms of revenue, in terms of consensus estimates for revenue, earnings, that type of stuff, subscribers are all that matter to this company. And as I speak, 399, I did not see this one coming. And I want to say, if you're looking to get in Netflix, right, this might be at least an opportunity because you're going to open folks at 400 bucks to put this on the chart. Okay, we got to go back even further, but check this out. We are at pre-pandemic prices. They give it all back. Netflix gives it all back from the pandemic. Remarkable. Peloton, we're going to get to coming up as well. I mean, just experiences a lot folks living through this, seeing this, seeing these companies that should have benefited oh so greatly, and they did for a short time being, they are not meandering the end of this pandemic like we all kind of suspected as Netflix surged to $700. You're going to open at $398. We're going to take a look a little bit at Netflix. We're going to go back a little bit further. We're going to talk Disney. We're going to talk Peloton. We'll be right back folks. Stay tuned. You'll get a weekly report from veteran day trader Larry Pezzavento on stocks you need to pay attention to, and you can trust Larry's analysis.

We've got a chart of Netflix up here. Netflix trading right now at $399 is the ask right now. Under $400 on this chart. So I had the three-year weekly up when we went to break. Backing that up a little bit further, there's your five-year weekly. Now interesting, right? That we're opening. We're talking about important price levels on charts, folks. $400 is a very important price level for Netflix. We trade below $400. Just visually, you can see that number one, you get the next round number at $300 and $300 was an area that yeah, we traded all the way down to what was it, $231 at the end of 2018. We got to a price point of $252 at September of 2019. So yes, we are going to be back to $400, which was where we were trading at pre-pandemic levels but it is important to remember that Netflix really accelerated, I mean you're talking about a stock that was trading at $137 as recently as 2017, right? So that is still a three-bagger, okay? From that price point, from where you are right now, just for some context, but critical area for Netflix at $400, getting into the actual raw numbers, they missed it in a big way and they really don't have a reason why, which is probably partly to blame in terms of why the stock's being punished so much. 2.5 million subscribers is what they expect this quarter, that'd be the company's worst start in more than a decade. Plunges is how they put it, erasing, yeah, $45 billion in market cap. So they added 18.2 million customers in 2021, that's down 50% from the record year before. Now checking out the ads they've had on a yearly basis, okay, 2020 record year, pandemic, they capitalized, they add 36.6 million subscribers, last year they add 18.2. You add them both together, you're talking about, what is that, 54.8 million subscribers. That's 27 million subscribers per year over the two years. They definitely pulled forward some of the subscribers. We know that now when you look at this chart, you can't deny it when you look at the yearly fall off to the tune of about 50% of what they did in 2020. But when you take the average folks at 27, it's exactly what they did in 2019. Now, 2018 was at 28, but pretty much on par, 2018, 1920 and 2021, they're pushing about 27 to 28 million subscribers per year ad. They thought it was looking for, yeah, 6.26 is what they were looking for for the current quarter. That's the one that they're talking about, 2.5 million subscribers now. Now here's the part that gets a little interesting though.  Company executives struggled to identify why growth has slowed. They bramed a tough economy, especially in Latin America, as well as lingering fallout from the pandemic. They acknowledged the potential impact from rival streaming services. That's something new. Yeah, and as I say, Reed Hastings has long dismissed competition as a problem noting Netflix has grown as many rivals came into the business. That's very true as well. And this is something we're gonna start to see play out because my friends and I were even talking about yesterday, Disney catering to people with children especially. How does that play out when you talk about canceling? Many children though, they're hooked on Netflix just as fast folks. If you have little kids in your house, maybe you're familiar with Coco Mellon on Netflix. That thing is like caught fire in a big way. So can you cancel either of them? Can you cancel both? I have both in my household. Many people both have probably have both in their household, but we're nearing a point. They were talking about the Tigers down yesterday, man.  Maybe you got the Disney plan with Hulu and ESPN Plus. Maybe you have HBO Max in there as well. You're paying probably more than you might have been paying for cable at the beginning of things. So we'll see how this plays out. You have Disney trading lower today. You have Roku trading lower today as well. I think they put in here. But yeah, so this is the quote, okay? It's tough to pinpoint why subscriber acquisition hasn't recovered to pre-COVID levels. That's the CFO said on their webcast yesterday. He and his colleagues reiterated their confidence in long-term prospects for the business. Well, what else are they gonna say that we're in deep trouble and we're never gonna turn it around and the long-term prognosis is negative? You're not gonna hear a C-suite executive say that ever, folks. And yeah, they just go over some of the numbers that they posted in terms of what they were looking for. Nonetheless, that is Netflix. They trade lower and this will be an interesting open, folks. That's about 400 bucks from Netflix shares. Now we gotta jump over to Peloton. Peloton, I mean, Netflix, Netflix changed the world, folks. They're gonna be around, okay? They're gonna be around at a different valuation today than they were yesterday or a few years ago. Peloton, you can't say the same thing. Peloton has not changed the world, folks. They became quite a phenomenon. That is undeniable. The chart says it as well. They've become a phenomenon to the upside and to the downside. Yesterday, folks, I'm getting meme jokes left and right for my friends about Peloton. Peloton has become a meme joke stock after becoming a cult following stock. Now they've built quite the following over the period of the pandemic. That following is probably gonna follow them through. But I wouldn't even buy a $2,000 bike during the pandemic. I'm certainly not gonna buy it now. I heard my dad talking about it yesterday in the same sentiment. They obviously have some problems. They halt production yesterday. They're trading at $24. You were trading at $37 in 2019. But it must be like to be down 40% in Peloton over the period of about two-plus years when you had COVID strike during that time. Obviously a period of mismanagement. They ramped things up. The forecasts were horrible. You combine this. You combine Netflix, folks. Some of these expectations that we have, excuse me, and Netflix is a different deal in Peloton. Peloton is complete mismanagement by the executives. You can't deny it. And then the whole story comes out that you got the executive selling $500 million at the tops. Here's what I'll say about that portion of it, okay? Insiders' transactions are very important. I think it came out that the CEO sold about $110 million of his position. That was only about 10% of his portfolio, all right? I can't blame an executive that sells out 10%, folks, when you trade from 17 to 170. As traders ourselves, if you get a 10-bagger during that time, the expectations built into the future are just mammoth. So he was a billionaire at those prices. I think he's now worth, like, $300 million or something like that. And he cashed out $100 million at the top. Keep your eye on those positions.  I can't blame them, though. I really not. People are up in arms over this deal, folks. Executives, folks. An executive that starts a company like Peloton brings it public, you know, creates a phenomenon during the pandemic. He's a billionaire. And he says to himself, you know, there's a lot of growth built into the price of this equity at $100, $120, $140, $170. I think I'm going to take 10% off the table and diversify it, because why would I keep $1 billion in a company that's trading at $171, that was just trading at $17? Now, Mark Zuckerberg would disagree. And that's how you become king of the internet, is you keep all the shares, you keep all the ownership if you really believe in what you're doing. But he could have believed it in as well and just didn't want to write it out at the tops, like you see there, at 171, which is pretty crazy over the top in terms of where you are on that equity when you were just at 17. Did not think that we would get below pre-COVID levels, though, on Peloton. Now, Netflix, the reason why Netflix should freak out the market a little bit is what happens if technology stocks are missing in a big way? And what happens if we got a tough earnings sector coming up, tough earnings quarter coming up for some of these equities? Netflix did not imagine that you could trade a $400 on their earnings last night. About a $35 move priced into this equity coming into things, so much, much larger move. If you were buying it at the money, put or call yesterday. About $18 is all you were paying. Well, you're going to get a $108 move to the downside on that equity on the open. Stay tuned, folks. We'll be coming right back for the opening bell. We'll take a look a little bit. Peloton, we'll get back. We'll take a look at Disney. We'll take a look at some of those tech stocks as well.

We get the S&P right now negative by 18 points, trading at 44.56 Nasdaq 100 off 127. Let's jump to Netflix, see how they're opening up on the open bell. A little bit lower price. We make a low of 397 for Netflix shares on the open. We'll jump to some of the other stocks impacted. You've got Disney down about 4% on the Netflix news, down to 141.90. We jump over to Roku shares. Down about 3% catching a little bit of a pop on the open from where we were at 161.94. Let's see how Peloton is trading right now. There's a lift for you Peloton trading up 8% to 26.22. Still well off the $32 it was trading at yesterday when the news broke that they are halting production of some of their bikes.  Like I said, I mean they got a big following. They got a lot of people with bikes now that they're going to have for recurring revenue. But man, talk about a reevaluation of the growth multiples on that company. We're trading at $26 right now on Peloton. All right, let's jump around to some of the fang stocks. See how they're trading. Apple shares getting a little bit of a lift on the open. Check that out. So we get the NASDAQ 100 down 77 right now getting a lift. Part of that's got to be Apple trading from basically 163 to 165 right on the open. See how Microsoft is trading this morning. Basically flat at 302. We jump to Google shares, Google trading flat as well. Amazon shares trading at 3,009 Amazon actually with a 2,900 print. Remarkable. You take a look at Amazon. If you're looking to get in Amazon folks, you get a 2,900 handle on Amazon. You could at least start to dabble. The only thing a little bit worrisome is man, this acceleration you got, I would be very surprised if Amazon gave it all back during the pandemic, but wouldn't be the first time folks because man, been surprised many times by some of these equities. But we're approaching an area that has nice support here of about $3,000. That's an area we've been chopping around in since July of 2020. Folks, you're getting into Amazon at July of 2020 prices of about 3,000 back from 3,700 a couple times last year. So you're talking about what is that more than a 20% haircut or where you were trading out on two occasions last year on Amazon shares. And these markets were surging higher as you got the S&Ps down just 14 points. Now 14,461, but man, these moves on a weekly basis. Pretty decisive. There's your S&P on a weekly basis. There's your NASDAQ on a weekly basis. These two bars we got folks from January 3rd and the week we had this week, of course, January 17th. You're talking about giving up in the NASDAQ 100 almost 2,000 points folks. We're about 200 points away from a 2,000 point give up from the highs we had to start this year. That's a move you better be paying attention to. Let's jump over the VIX as we're getting a little bit of a lift right now. In the markets, VIX pairing was gains a bit, but man, you're talking about 2675 and as I just had it, you put this thing and back it up a little bit further. Just to show you the type of moves that are possible here, this VIX move up to 2670 pretty well below most of the spikes that we've had in the last couple of years. You look at it. I mean, most of these spikes folks, this is going back to March of 2020. I'll back it up even a little bit further to get the full COVID spike in there, okay? But you had 85 when the market just fell out of bed when COVID hit. Outside of that, we look at the runs that we've had since June of that year. And as you can see, most of the highs actually higher, which means that the pain may not be over, man. We are getting a lift, but it's almost a scary lift. Every time we've risen in this market, you've had to pay the price later in the day with some negative action. We'll see if that happens today. We check in on Bitcoin, Bitcoin, catching a little bit of a lift. We're now 1,100 bucks off the low. We'll keep our eye on Bitcoin shares, shares, Bitcoin trading at 38,760 right now. All right, let's jump down the line and see what else we have going on in terms of stocks. Slumberj, the oil services company, oil, good market to be in oil right now. Beat top and bottom line estimates for the fourth quarter. 41 cents a share, 2 cents above estimates. Higher oil prices, spurred demand for drilling services. Slumberj, SLB is their symbol. And they are barely negative after some volatility on the open by about half a percent. We got this market turning positive. Russell and the Dow just went positive. S&P only three points in the negative right now. Yeah, Netflix we covered, Peloton we've covered. CSX, they're out with their numbers. They beat by a penny, 42 cents a share. Railroad operators revenue also beat. Sales grew across all of its business lines as customers sought to deal with supply chain challenges. However, a little bit negative as they noted a surge in expenses, the common theme. There's CXX, CSX down about 3.2% right now. Intel, yeah, here's an Intel one I want to get to. They're going to spend $20 billion in Ohio chip making hub. CEO explains plans in an interview with Time magazine. Intel's trying to catch up to Asia giants in chip making $20 billion is quite a price tag to go after it. The company expects to grow to be the world's biggest silicon manufacturing site, according to a person familiar with its plans. I mean $20 billion is a lot of money, but I think Taiwan semiconductor came out and said they're going to spend $100 billion over the next three years or five years or something like that. So the amount of money these chip makers have to spend just to be competitive is pretty remarkable. They're going to begin construction of two fabrication plants on a 1,000 acre site in New Albany, operational by 2025, so you're talking about three years. Time reported the plans earlier, signing an interview with the CEO. He said the company will use the location as a hub to research, develop it, develop and manufacture its most advanced chips and will have the option to expand to 2,000 acres and up to eight fabrication plants. Intel shares this morning, they are getting a little bit of a lift. They're up 1%, the market likes that. Now here's what I'll say about Netflix as well. They're trading at $399, right where they were, down 21%. The thing to watch out for in Netflix, because I'm thinking about it myself, I mean you got to imagine if you were looking to get into Netflix and I was, just even maybe long-term retirement wise, right, gets away from me to $701. They had this consolidation area from July of 2020 to basically for a full year till August of 2021. You break out of that, you're back to $400. As I put it, you're in a pretty nice area in terms of $400 being an area that you had a little bit of resistance back to even 2018. Maybe that's going to be an area of support that you've had a couple occasions for the better part of 2019. We saw prices of $386 almost on a couple occasions, but here's the thing that I'll say that's kind of out there looming. Netflix is struggling. The market's making them pay for that. Reed Hastings is an innovator, folks, that you cannot deny the way he changed the world. If you recall, when Netflix was first starting and they had their CD service, really remarkable that they built their company on CDs, which our children won't even know existed. It was so long ago, but when they first transitioned to streaming platforms, if you recall, first streaming was included and then they segmented it out. You had to either sign up for a CD service or the streaming service. Reed Hastings knew streaming was the future. There are going to be speed bumps. They needed to ditch the CD deal. They needed to start signing people up for streaming. They needed to start producing programs and spending money for streaming. If they decide to get into gaming, and this might be a catalyst, because I imagine they're sitting at their desk this morning folks going, okay, how do we turn this around? We're not growing the way we need to. Where do we find some growth? It's going to be international for sure, but you heard the executive saying we're not quite sure. So if they're not quite sure why they can't sign up as many international subscribers to their streaming services, they thought maybe one area is gaming. They've talked about getting into gaming. Well, maybe they really have some aspirations and they go out there and then they make a purchase into gaming. It might be a little bit of a turnaround time, but it's something to think about folks and so be aware that if you're getting in there, that is a possibility that you could see Netflix going out trying to really bolster their gaming. Maybe that's an area that they could provide more value to their subscribers. And maybe that's an area they could provide more growth because they need it after yesterday. And they're going to be thinking about that. And that's one area they've talked about they want to get into. Something to keep in mind. Netflix trading at 398 down 21%.

All the market's back in the red right now. Bitcoin, 38,000. We get Disney, down 5.5%. Negative with the market, but accelerating lower on the Netflix news. Now, here's what I'll give you on Disney. Disney, you back it up to the COVID lows of $79. You rise to 203 March of last year, 2021. We are now back to about a 50% run of that at 139.40. The 618 is sitting at about 126.42. Now, I'm going to back it up a little bit further so you can see the five years proceeding. 120, an area that we might have a little bit of support. Maybe that's your next stop, because we don't have much going on between about 120 and 140. Now, you're at the 50%. You're kind of right back to the area that you traded at on the first news of Disney Plus to give you some fundamental background of Disney. I mean, we're approaching areas, folks, before we even had any idea of what Disney existed like. One friend made a point that I agreed with is that Disney, if Disney Service, now they have kids in the house, if Disney Service was $19 or $20 a month, they'd probably cancel, but it's not, folks. It's like $7 or $8 a month. I think Disney made a brilliant plan.  But we're going back to an area, folks, that April of 2019 is when Disney even announced any type of plan for Disney Plus. Prior to that, they had talked about that they were going to create a streaming service, but the market had no idea. Were they going to make it $17? Were they going to go HBO Max-style and make it $20 a month premium? No, they undercut Netflix in pricing. The market loved the idea. They traded Disney from about $1.50 and up to $1.42 over the period of a few weeks. I'm just getting my bearings on how things went. Let me back this up again. Yes, so April of 2019, they announced those plans. They ended up being fortunate that they go public right before the pandemic. You pushed a $153 on the news that they had signed up X amount of people even before it began. Point being, folks, we are back to price levels that you didn't even know what the structure was going to be like on Disney, let alone the amount of people they've signed up. You're looking a little bit longer term. Boy, I encourage you to take a look at it at $138 because I imagine that $120 is going to have some real support even if it makes it down there. So maybe you start a partial position. Yeah, they're saying that they need an adult segment for the parents. And they do have adult. They got National Geographic in there. They have some other things that are included, but I agree. And they are not competing like Netflix, man. Kids themselves, right? You can fly around a million things on Netflix. The one thing that Disney does have that they're never going to lose is the Star Wars franchises. They get the Marvel franchises, right? They got Mickey Mouse. They got Donald Duck. They have everything that goes with that. That's a tough one for Netflix to compete with, but Disney's not getting it done in terms of the stickability. If you don't have kids, you're probably not sticking with Disney. So it's interesting to see. But this underperformance, this has a lot to do also with the parks and the movie theater business. Because you back things up to 2019. And Disney had, I believe, eight to 10 different movies that all grossed a billion dollars at the box office. They didn't have a single movie in 2020, and they ended 2021 with Spider-Man, which was the first movie since going back to the end of 2019. They'll be back to that business eventually, folks. So we'll see how it goes. All right, jumping around to what else we got going on. Let's jump to some of the fan favorite stocks out there. Tesla shares down about 1.7%. You're below $1,000. NVIDIA's had quite a pullback recently. NVIDIA 237, man. Check out this stock from 346. Wow, quite a pullback. You've now given back $110 on NVIDIA shares. We jump over to Zoom shares. The slide does not stop. Down to 154. You're down another percent on Zoom shares. We'll check out Netflix, see how they're trading. The slide does not stop on Netflix, man. 391 we just hit on Netflix shares. My goodness. You jump over to Roku, down 3.5%. Peloton shares getting a little bit of a lift, but that's a dead cap bounce in a big way over there in terms of up 6%, but well off the $32 it was trading at yesterday. In this market, talk about some two-way action. I'm going to put the NASDAQ 100 on a one-minute chart just for some quick action here. You just traded up 140 points, folks. Gave it all back within the first 15 minutes of trading. And we just bounced 80 NASDAQ points in the last three minutes. This market is trying to figure out which way it wants to go, and it just hasn't figured it out just yet. We jump over to the bonds. I mean, talk about a give back in yields, man. There is just action everywhere in this market, folks. That's a one-minute basis. So we just came up and made highs at about 9, 12 at the beginning of the program. We're talking about a 10-year yield that is now at 1.76%. We're approaching 1.9% on Wednesday. 1.76%, quite an exodus of equities, people flocking to the safety of notes and bonds in a big way. Excuse me. Over in Europe, big negative action on the heels of our negative action yesterday. Excuse me. Dax was down 2.3%. FTSE down 1.4%. Calcroll down 1.7%. Big numbers. Let's jump around and see how some of those meme stocks are trading. You get AMC down 2% these stocks. Talk about a rise and a fall, man. 17 bucks. You're going right back to 10 bucks, folks, on AMC. Game stock, 100. It's just remarkable. These poor people, they got caught in some of these equities. Hopefully not too many retail traders, but unfortunately, it's just been quite a ride on prices and lower prices indeed. All right. What else do I have pulled up here to chat about? We talked about Bitcoin. Yeah, Mr. Diamond gets a raise. Not too surprising there as he has led that bank. Remarkable. 2005, he has been CEO. And just like the analysts and associates at JPMorgan, he is getting a raise of 10% to 34.5 million for his work in 2021. We jump over to some of the banks today with yields pulling back a bit. Talk about a give back, man. JPMorgan, down again, you're at 147. You were just trading at 170. I mean, you just gave up $23 of price action in JPMorgan as they missed in a big way. Bank of America shares, you're down again. You were at 50. You gave up five bucks. So they're about 10% off where they were trading at. Wells Fargo has been the strongest one, but they gave up a little bit as well from 58 to 54. City really pulling back as well. Let's jump around to some of the travel stocks and see how they're trading right now.  Upwards and downwards we go. NASDAQ 100, down 130 again. There's your chart of American back down to the lows that we had in December on two occasions. Let's take out the three-year weekly. These airlines, man. Some max-paying situation. So interesting, American. You're right back at that 618. You topped out on two occasions of American at 26. You're back to 16, a 618 in the move, and you're back to this area that we had a little bit of support back in early December. Maybe that's an area for American. Quite a pullback this week. Delta shares also back to an area that we found a little bit of support in on a couple occasions for Delta. We jumped to domestically, JetBlue. Yeah, just remarkable. I'll place the slow clawback in these travel stocks. We jumped to Carnival, the cruise ships. Probably nowhere slower. Carnival down 2.5% again. Norwegian down 2.9%. Boeing shares down 2.7%. So much for being out of the woods for Boeing. Boeing shares this week alone. From 230 to 208 for Boeing shares. All right, folks, stay tuned. It's Friday. We're only 20 minutes into the trading day. We get the S&P negative 21 points. NASDAQ 100, negative 130 now. Stay tuned, folks. I'll be right back to finish up the show.
