Thank you to the organizers for accepting this paper in this interesting session. I think the discussion after now has been really interesting for addressing all these things about iron age in the present and about identities, specifically about the Celts and the use in modern time of the Celts. So I'm moving on to a specific study we are conducting around the opidon of Fulaca in central Spain. We are working, understanding the cultural landscapes currently now and we are trying to understand how to enhance the collaboration between local communities and archaeologists and how to understand the importance of iron age in the present day in this region of central Spain. So historical reunitements are a growing phenomenon across all Europe and the western countries. Every year there are more and more of these festivals everywhere. They have more people involved as participants, public and organizers. In Spain there is an expansion of these events too, especially those related to the iron age. New historical reunitements are getting started everywhere. They attract more and more visitors, they got attention from the media and they have a high impact on tourism and the local economy of the places where these events are celebrated. However, little attention has been paid to the reunitements by social science, particularly about archaeologists and heritage management experts. Most of our colleagues, in fact, think historical reunitements are a sort of crime, misinformed and poorly informed events in scientific terms. So most of them don't get involved and even detest them and deny their crucial value. But tourism entrepreneurs, local politicians, private companies and also advertising agents have recognized their relevance. So they are getting involved with their own agendas while archaeologists remain out of the picture. So in this presentation we will reflect on historical reunitements as contemporary cultural representations. We consider this festival as a social contest where the public engaged with cultural landscapes and heritage and build bottom-up historical and archaeological narratives. This context primarily serves to the public, we need to emphasize diversity here, to have fun and party to spread and negotiate contemporary identity issues, to promote tourism and to raise business. In addition, we will briefly point out some of the issues, in our opinion, we should be aware as archaeologists regarding the nature of these festivals. Finally, we will explore the possibilities of historical reunitements for the dissemination of archaeological narratives in a more inclusive way, reflecting on multi-vocality, multiculturalism and open science. To do this, we will pay attention to the Luna Delta Festival in Avila, as our main case study. This festival is one of the more outstanding historical reunitements in Spain, as it has been celebrated for more than 10 years. It involves thousands of people, considering organizers, participants and public, and it is connected to one of the more impressive and well-known ironized sites in the Beria Peninsula, the Ovidon Ufulaca, located in the local municipality of Solos Ancho. Around this singular archaeological site, our research team with the scholars from the Gubertensa University of Madrid is investigating how local communities engage with the cultural landscapes related to the ironized Ovidon, and how tourism and land use policies mediate in the public perception of the acrony within those landscapes. This research has been developed in the framework of the REFIT project, along with our colleagues from the European Ecological Center of Ibrac in France and Durham University in the UK. We have conducted an ethnographical exploration of the Luna Delta Festival during the last two editions, 2016 and 2017, just a couple of weeks ago. Following up, a broader study about the contemporary reception of the ironates in central Iberia, in connection with the so-called Betones by Romans, the indigenous communities who inhabited the western central plateau of Iberia at the end of the first millennium BC. The goals for this paper are to examine the potential of this festival for engaging local communities with the cultural landscapes around the Ovidon, to assess the role of ironates as a reference for the making of contemporary identities, and to explore the relations between historical renangment festivals, archaeological research, and tourism in central Spain. Previous research, developed by one of us, along Pablo Alonso, of renangment festivals in the northwest of Spain between 2010-2013, serve as our starting point for this investigation. The pre-Roman past constitutes an essential reference from contemporary identities in several regions of Spain, as Manuel saw us before. The Betones played an important role as a reference of prestige in Avala region. Sanofi's inhabitants feel a sort of self-identification with those peoples of the ironates, which are also used by the regional government and the public agencies for promoting tourism, for example. Also, local companies use archaeological references related to the Betones as a source of cultural labeling for business purposes. These two main aspects will explain the growing public interest for renangment festivals in Spanish regions such as Avala, but for most of people involved, renangments are mainly festive celebrations in which outstanding events from the past become alive in the present through different ways of performance. This way, historical and archaeological narratives constitute a sort of background sound for party. For this reason, there will be people participating in these renangments who will not pay attention to heritage or archaeological narratives in any other time in their lives, so self-experience and performativity could be considered here as a unique opportunity for archaeologists in order to engage with them and disseminate our interpretations of the ironates and unsealed cultural landscapes. The archaeological site of Ulaga is located in a rural area which suffers the population and a great decline in the primary sector. Jordan has emerged as an alternative economic activity and European structural funds have been allocated to raise these initiatives. In this context, the betonets are used in marketing and cultural labeling as a local reference for identity. The Runa-Thelta Renangment Festival started in 2005, one year after the last archaeological excavations at the cemetery of Ulaga by the Computation University was developed. In the first three editions, the festival included the collaboration of various archaeologists who explained different aspects of the ironates to the audience. However, since 2008, these archaeological lectures were replaced by full Celtic music. Since then, the festival has not stopped to grow. The success of the Runa-Thelta Renangment has led to the launching of similar festival events nearby times like Lungasaz in near to La Mesa de Miranda, the Celtic Festival of El Raso, or the Beton Festival in Jecla La Vieja in different villages around this area. But what do they do in the Runa-Thelta Festival and these sort of events? Local people and visitors dress themselves up like betonets and represent historical events, mainly battles, ritual ceremonies, feasts, parades, although they try to represent the past in a more accurate way they can. We should not forget that having fun is the central aim for the most of them. So in the 13 editions of the festival, there were representation of combats, funerals, weddings, craft demonstrations, all sorts of activities like this. And complementary activities like games, archery, or climbing are also organized, mainly for children. The central event in the festival is the Runa-Thelta Theater, which is deployed usually on Friday. The Runa-Thelta Festival starts on Friday night with this theater play performed by local actors on the Ulaka Altar. Every year the play is based on a different topic and the script follows archaeological and historical information the authors gather from outraged books written by archaeologists and also from the internet, Wikipedia, all those kind of places. The performance of this theater play generates controversy among archaeologists, since the majority of them saw their concern regarding the conservation of the site and the integrity of the Ulaka Altar itself. The last couple of years, the play in the top of Ulaka brought around 3,000 people to the Iron Nights opidum and these people have to walk the steepest slopes of the Ulaka hill for for more than half an hour and later they come down in the middle of the night, so you can imagine they are really interested in going there to watch this play. During the weekend, a big market is the focus of the festival in the village. It is formed by stalls full of regional products, jewellery, crafts from leader to aromatic candles, and bars with chorizo and ham sandwiches and enough beer to keep well iterated the thousands of people who visit and take part in the re-enactment. There is a regulation for the market which states that the decoration of the stalls, the dresses of the sellers, and the music must be Celtic beton, not medieval. A tribe contest has recently been launched, aiming to reward the best re-enactment groups and to encourage local inhabitants to take part in their festival. Tribes are formed by families and groups of friends. For example, Bertonia tribe is formed by 21 people from the same village, Batirna. Different aspects are valued, the originality of the dresses and complements the active involvement on the festival through the weekend and the historical accuracy of their office and the short speech and a short speech they give to the public at the main stage of the festival. As any other events, political parties get involved in this festival. This way the local mayor from the Labor Party is the main promoter of the festival and is always in the middle of everything in the festival. He's always at the front of any act during the re-enactment, so antagonism between different parties at local level rises. For example, because regional institutions in Avila are ruled by the conservative party, so tricky situations came up when they meet at the festival and we could saw this last year in 2016. Then the local and regional conservative politicians came on to the festival for a visit and they tried to go up to the stage at the tribe contest without being dressed up as betonists against the will of local organization who were really really upset, because they could not allow to give full prominence to the local mayor wearing beton work office. You can see him like in the middle. Kiss the local mayor. The festival has an important impact in the local and regional media. Television and newspapers covers the festivities celebrating the local beton pride and the happiness of the local inhabitants of Solosancho. Moreover, the festival has inspired an oval. Through performativity and embodiment, the participants at re-enactment such as Luna Delta naturalize a variety of aspects of narco-local and historical narratives and they disseminate them to the public. Moreover, these narratives are far more successful than most of our papers, exhibitions or lectures, but most of our colleagues, the most significant concerns that arise for most of our colleagues, the more significant concerns that arise at the lie of historical re-enactments, can be encapsulated within a question of the sort. Are they wearing the right type of sword? We wonder if these kind of aspects should be the main concern for archaeologists. Can we change our attitude and be more constructive? Certainly at the re-enactment festival we can approach audiences which couldn't ever be reached at museums or with all the conventional objects strategies, so instead of complaining about the inaccuracy in the use of certain type of swords or necklace, we should learn from re-enactments about successful strategies to make impact on the public and disseminate to our local narratives among lay audiences. Certainly we can think about complementary conferences programs, but if people have to choose between several doses of activities during the festival, including battles, feasting, having beer from animal horns, almost nobody will attend to a formal lecture. Actually in the first editions of the Luna Delta, as I told you, there were some lectures by archaeologists, but they were no longer organized since very few people attended, so we need to explore different ways to engage with people who are interested in our narratives but prefer living it rather to listen to formal and boring top-down academic discourses. Usually the pro-Roman communities of Central Iberia are represented at re-enactment festivals such as Luna Delta in a hierarchical way. There are always indigenous leaders who are performed as a sort of powerful teams and they are accompanied by male warriors mainly. The indigenous peoples are always depicted as united with no barriers among them, further than different clothes or banners for the different tribes who take part in the tribe's contest, so historical, cultural, viewing iron age perverse here. Why is that if nowadays archaeological discussions are deepening into regional diversity with the later iron age societies in this area and no hierarchical interpretations of iron age societies are gaining space within the academic debates? But the thing is that the new academic narratives are more complex and they could enrich the public understanding of the Roman past. Also, and most importantly, they will enhance the multicultural reality of the present. We may recall here the recent controversy that social media following the support of Mariber to a multicultural and multiracial Roman Britain, but probably these recent narratives are not so easy to reach for the public in Central Spain, for example, because sometimes they are written in English and they are published in fancy journals with high impact indexes, but they have too high access fees. Where the participants in Luna Thelta collect the information they need to build up the botanical narratives to make a written acumen? On the contrary to academic narratives, new age stories and pseudoarcheology are preferably accessible to them through the internet, so those sorts of blogs, Facebook groups and Twitter accounts spread amateur texts and images about the Celtic barbarian assemblies for Central Iberian iron age. So and they use Wikipedia too where really few academics add information. We archaeologists who consider the need to get involved in these spaces for being part of the conversation and point out new questions and sources, but let's go further. What if we get involved in organizing re-enactments and promote breakups and change in the cultural representations? We are not talking about imposing our academic views to the public, instead, we suggest to go with the people and assume fewer responsibilities in the organization. For example, after a few years ago, we tried to do something like this in the Festival of Asturias and Romanos in Astorga, Pablo Alonso and myself, so we proposed to some of our tribe mates, the Grigurros, raising up against the tyranny of Sevius, the leader of Asturias, in a small theater play in which someone will play an archaeologist's role as narrator. We thought about performing an assembly for proclaiming equality among the Grigurros and the seeds on the war or male ideology that males were carrying on too far in the festival. The Roman threat may not justify an increase in inequalities within our community. This plan was already settled for being deployed in 2013 edition, but both of us had to move and we couldn't make it, but it will be interesting to see what happened there. So, we archaeologists can make the most of the resources already available at the Arvian Agne festivals. The theater plays, the parades, and the market at Solos Ancho show households, artisan activities, and the participants make and use all sorts of Peruman objects in the festival. What if we collaborate with them, organizing a guided tour, speaking about the Peruman agrarian economy, the real environment, or the importance of households for the interpretation of gender and social inequalities? We are sure that few things will annoy us, such as looking at corn in the walls of their hats, biking helmets, or the Game of Thrones music all around. But if we get involved with a positive attitude, the public we consider that archaeology has something positive to provide them about iron age, beyond commodifying new age, discourses, and cellular archaeology. The way people live and work in the land in the past, made crucial landscapes as they are today, so this deflection is not present at Luna Delta, and we could be responsible to introduce it in the picture. So, a few last conclusions for the final discussion. What could we do as archaeologists in order to favor the public's engagement with archaeological sites through historical reunamins? Since historical reunamins have historical and archaeological narratives behind, they sometimes are related to archaeological sites, and they can affect, in some ways, to heritage management, these events constitute one of the themes if public archaeology should pay more attention. Moreover, this increasing prominence of historical reunamins is making them become one of the main arenas for the dissemination of archaeological knowledge, so if we want to study the public perceptions of iron age and consider how stakeholders engage with cultural landscapes or archaeological sites, we cannot miss historical reunamins. It is fair to have some concerns and some of these festivals regarding the ideological motivations behind them or the commodification of heritage, but at the same time, reunamins constitute an interesting arena where different relations between the academy and society could be experimented. There are people who really want to hear current discussions in archaeology with all their complexity, but most of the times these ideas are not available for them since we don't write in academia or we don't write like understandable blogs on the internet. On the contrary, historical cultural archaeology and southern narratives are easier to understand for the public and they can be found everywhere, so we need to do an effort on public outreach and engagement with local communities because if we don't do it, somebody else will do it with their own agenda, so thank you very much.


one, two, two, test, test, one, two. How y'all doing?  Give me a little more high, uh, it's kind of midi up here, Jim, in the way, it's kind of midi. One, two. We're gonna start this song off real cool. You know you gotta put your glasses on for this one. You can't let them know what you're looking at. If you let them know what you're looking at, most likely they know what you're thinking. I like to hide. When I do hide, I like to hide. Looks like Norwood likes to hide behind his glasses. Looks like Dirty Walk likes to hide behind his glasses. Looks like Charlie Down likes to hide behind his glasses. And so are my other two brothers. Here come the Montaballet Rays. Ironically, I need glasses the most.  Yeah, come on, wet daddy. We ain't got time for none of these games, at least.  Hopefully y'all are here enjoying yourselves at the motherfucking fist bump show. Ass whoopins, all around, pasteurize the drunk guy. Cheryl, well, nice to meet you, Cheryl. Cheryl's a little shy and she's up in the front, so she's gonna learn the night. And when you stand up in the front, if you're not participating, I'm going to inspire you to participate, y'all.


Welcome to Living Mosaic. My name is Martha Holden. I'm a member of the Spark of Humanity Network. And today with me is Glenn Hutchison, a friend and an artist. This is the first of our series of special events recorded to talk about the concept of Living Mosaic, which the idea is that there is a solution to the heartbreak we see in the world that we're so aware of.  We are unique and essential parts of the solution. And we envision the solution as a Living Mosaic, living and evolving. And so that's what we're here to talk about. And the gathering of people who find that concept interesting and are interested in becoming, letting go of what they need to let go of, clinging to what they need to cling in order to be drawn into their niche in the Living Mosaic. And I think that pretty much is it. And that's what we're doing here. And Glenn, if you tell us just a little bit about yourself and what interests you or doesn't interest you in the Living Mosaic concept thing. Yeah. Thank you very much, Martha, for inviting me here. It's an odd pleasure to have this opportunity. And I'm glad just to be able to sit and talk with you about it a little bit and about whatever else, I suppose. About myself, I never know what the most relevant aspects are, but I would say I think the way you introduce me, we know each other, and I'm an artist, almost sums it up as it is. I have lived here in Montpelier where we are for 15 years. I see lots of people all the time in my day job as a picture frameer. I have an art studio where I make my own paintings and sculptures and drawings. And I do a lot of reading. I don't retain much of it, but I read an awful lot of stuff. What I think about the spark of humanity and the Living Mosaic concepts, I think I'm, first of all, really, again, thankful to you, not only for having me here, but also just for the work that you're doing to bring this out. It is worthwhile and really interesting. I share the sense that there are solutions, and I think it makes sense to work toward those solutions in the way that you seem to be working with conversations and writings and listening, among all the other things, but those aspects. And I think that I appreciate the root idea of the spark of humanity that's in each of us. I think that that's perhaps not exactly the way I would phrase it, but I recognize that idea. Then I get to the Living Mosaic, and I have to admit I am in a state of questioning that concept, I think, or maybe just the metaphor, the specificity of the metaphor, and I'm looking forward to this conversation in some part to work through some of those questions. Good. Thank you very much. That's great. I think before we move into that, which sounds very meaty and interesting, and I can hardly wait. Well, we'll find out. We'll enjoy it no matter what, either way. I think that's the important thing. I'm delighted you're here and bringing some caring, some intelligence and some mental... Yeah, you're present. You're paying attention to it and responding, which is a wonderful thing, because you as an artist know that when you put your art on the wall, you like to have people not only look at it, but they feel that they're responding in some way, and it's a different art form. Yeah. Do you associate with any particular faith tradition or background or spiritual upbringing or any of that stuff that you'd like to put on the table? Yeah, it's probably worthwhile. I would say that I am an atheist with Quaker and Buddhist leanings or curiosity. I feel as though I think about religion and spirituality and philosophy fairly regularly, and I go back and forth about it, but I have not ever been directly connected to a faith tradition. Even as a child, your parents didn't march you off to Sunday school? No, I would say the opposite. I knew where the Sunday school was. I had piano lessons in the same building, but the family generally avoided committing to any religion and had, I think, a quietly antagonistic relationship to the idea of religion and maybe more specifically what were the standard religious options around us, basically Protestant Christianity. So I grew up thinking there were all kinds of wonderful stories in the Bible and elsewhere and that none of them had any more truth or validity to them than any other options and that the institutions of religion were, let's say, questionable at best. And then in college, I went to Haverford College, which is a Quaker begun institution and still has a fair amount of the leanings toward Quakerism there and really appreciated that angle on Christianity, I think, and on religion and attended some meetings for worship and mostly just fell asleep, which was a very nice nap. And then also in college, studied Buddhism especially toward Zen and since then have, again, once in a while attended a Quaker meeting or attempted Zazen or something like that. I don't have regular practice though and I don't usually miss it. I do appreciate the community more now, I think, than I did when I was growing up and I think that if I had a little bit more of a spur to do anything different than the nothing that I'm doing, I think that my objections to organized religion have decreased over time. You mentioned antagonism in your upbringing. Gentle antagonism. But that's drained away and that's not so fierce for you. But though it's gentle hell, there it is. So good. So you said you had some questions and comments and critiques and whatever about the Living Mosaic concept. Yeah. Whatever. Have had it. Okay. So I think that the... Please. Thank you. Again, thank you very much. Please. Thank you. I think that the basic question for me is whether... is why this specific metaphor of a mosaic and whether the modifying word living easily applies to the metaphor. To me, thinking about a mosaic, the qualities that I see in that imaginary object are immunability and a kind of fragmentation of individual pieces and a sense of being made. By an outside... Uh-oh. By an outside maker. And while I appreciate the sense of, let's say, peace and stability and beauty and togetherness, unity, that the image offers, I struggle to get my sense of the way things really are as inaccurate and changing as that sense is.  And then, well, it's a Living Mosaic that word perhaps helps, but I've never seen a Living Mosaic. And I'm not sure that once I apply that idea of life to a mosaic, I'm not sure that it still is a mosaic in my head. It might be something else. So I should try to phrase this as a question so that it's... No, you don't need to. I can carry on anyway. Please. Thank you. And I don't know where it came from. You know about ideas. They just come. Yes. So they take no responsibility. Yeah, sure. But I will do my best to rationalize. I think mosaics because mosaics are made of such different pieces and each one can be unique. And I like that part of it. That even though we're each unique, that we each fit into this functional, this living organism, and that we don't need to be... In fact, it's destructive if we want to be... You know, I'm a pebble. Let's say you're what do you want to be? Oh, a pebble sounds good. A piece of... Mirror? Sure, I'll be a mirror. Okay, you'll be a mirror. I'll be a pebble. Yeah. Yeah, so, you know, so I look at it. Oh, he says so good. I want to be a mirror too. Oh, why am I just a pebble? You know, it's that sort of thing or pebbles are better. Pebbles can break mirrors.   The more we do that, the more willing we are to let go of our illusions of who we should be and what the other person should be or don't we want to or shouldn't they, then we're more, then we can begin to fit into some functioning organism. And yeah, I know mosaics, people build them. I have a friend who does that. Yeah. And she liked the image because, oh, we're all broken. Yeah. And there has that advantage, but you know, my pebble isn't broken to be honest with you. At least not at this moment. The idea that it's not, it's an organism, you know, like a squirrel. And so it's not like somebody's thinking, hmm, what piece of shell needs to go, you know, it's not, it doesn't have that. At least for me. Yeah. One reason I think it works for me is because I believe, no, I don't believe much of anything, but I'm becoming, I'm increasingly experiencing the oneness of all creation. Yeah. And so I meant to micro-risal my works. Yep. And non-human allies. Yeah. From who knows where. And we're all part of this dance, an ever-evolving multi-dimensional dance. Yeah. Which is very abstract. Is that easier than a mosaic? I think I'm closer to a maker of mosaics than I am to a dancer. But I think that a dance feels more true to my sense of what's going on than a mosaic does, as a metaphor. Right. Yeah. I can see that. A dancing mosaic? Yeah, yeah, yes. Sure. Where we get to be ourselves. And evolving too. Yeah. Because it's alive, it's evolving. We have to be evolving whether we like it or not. Yeah. And so when evolving, dancing, evolving. When evolving, dancing, mosaic. Yeah. It doesn't have to be in a mosaic. Really, if we get it, that we each get to be who we are. Yes. And that who we really are is essential. It's important. Yes. I want to come back to that. Okay. Because I may have another question about who we are and so on. Okay. But I also want to come back to what you said a couple of things. But earlier, you were talking about mycorrhizal networks. If I'm pronouncing that right. I don't know. And you're, and your sense of interconnection and oneness of being. And I would be curious to hear your thoughts about that sense of oneness of being and mycorrhizal networks and the rest of the world besides you and me and humans. Is it your sense that actual pebbles and mushrooms and other identifiable things and entities also have that spark? The spark of humanity, this network. Right. And we're, spark can be, you know, I'm trying to rewrite a new thing. Oh, interesting. I'm glad I can tell. In respect, out of respect for those entities or creatures, my fellow creatures that have no inclination to have anything to do with anything that is human or, you know, spark of humanity. I really don't want that. So I'm working on another thing about a germ of true. And germ is in germinate, not is in pathogen so much. So that's the language I'm using at this point. Doing that, you know, is the spark of humanity. Network is the living mosaic program, whatever we're doing here, is a project of the spark of humanity network, but that's, you know, you can buy one without buying the other. Yeah. Or neither. Yeah. Yeah. That answers. The other thing that I appreciated about what you were saying earlier was, was your response that the idea came and that that you weren't sure from where necessarily and that, and then you said something like let's see how I might rationalize it, which I really like. I think that one of the things that I have enjoyed, one of the ideas that I've enjoyed coming to, maybe, or poking at, maybe more accurately, I'm not sure I've come to it, is that is how irrational I am. Or irrational. Sure. Yeah. But that, my sense is that the way my rationality behaves is to make sense of what I have just observed myself do. Right. Right. And the doing, the thing that I find, the place where I find myself, is rarely, if ever, the result of a rational process. Or logical. Logical process. Right. Not linear, not logical. Right. That there is more to me, more underneath my conscious speaking, rationalizing, logical, consecutive, controlled mind, that most of that more is doing most of the actions that I then notice myself having just done. And then I think, well, I did that because such and such and such and such led to it. And therefore, that's what I did. Okay. And so I think that whenever I see an example of someone else perhaps having a similar perception, it tickles me. I appreciate it. Yeah. So do you, how urgent or how important you feel it is to be able to come up with a reason why you do these things? I think that it's valuable and helps all of me, both the logical, rational, and the everything else, do the next things. Yeah. Okay. Yeah. I remember having something like this conversation with our honorable mayor, Jack McCullough, a few years back, which was amusing. We didn't get very far into it, but I would be curious to see if you can get him on this program. They don't know him. Oh, he's very sweet. He would be, well, we'll see. Yeah. Yeah. I feel there's something alive when you were motioning. It felt like, okay, there's this rational, logical, more or less linear. And then there's this where the real life is. Yes.  And that's part of being an artist. I would say, I should hope. In my practice, it is my practice, as much as I can figure it out. Yes, very much. Yeah. And then try to, does this make sense in this way? And I suppose, projecting wildly, which I do, that when I figured out, you know, this is why I did this. And then that gives the rational, logical part of my brain, just over here, I think, because I remember correctly, that gives me permission. Then that part will give me permission to then respond to the living, intuitive part again. It says, okay, that was okay. It is okay. I don't know why you did that. But okay, it's okay. You can keep on being. I don't have to put the lid on you. Yeah. I think perhaps what I'm trying to do in art and life is allow myself to do things and make things that will elicit laughter or applause from my rational conscience. Oh, good. I like it. We've got 21 seconds left. What? No. How did that happen? I don't know. Oh, gosh. But you can come back so fast. I didn't even get to all my other problems with your concepts. Well, then we need to set up another time. Okay. That was much faster than I thought. So did I. Me too. That's because it was fun. It was fun. Yeah, it's good. Thank you so much. Thank you all very much here at Orca.


Right. Hello again. Hello again. We'll give it a few minutes. Victor Morales is the lead today and he's having some connection issues. Give it a few minutes for him to join as well. Howdy folks. Hey Victor. Hello Taylor in the morning. Hi. Meeting notes are in the zoom chat. Add your name and any agenda items. Okay. It's five after the hour. So we should start. Yeah, go ahead. Let me turn my screen. Let me know if you can see it. Yes. Okay. Before I start in the, the, the meeting. If you have something to agenda, please add it. The items. So the first thing that we have is just the incoming event. This week is the open source summit. Europe. I tried to capture. The top is ready with the telcos. So those are some of the sessions that are, they're going to have it. We still have the, the, the hybrid opportunity to attend. So if you don't have the opportunity to travel there, you can take advantage of this or keep going. So I think that we have the schedule. We can take a look of the sessions to try to. Find some other topics fairly good telcos, but. If we have the, the California. So. Yeah, it's also a, but in this case, the telco is going to be just in person, right? It's only for people who are going to attend, or it is going to be recorded. In person only. Personal. Thanks. Last, but not least one summit. It's in Seattle. So. And I'm doing that week is also the. The same developer and testing forum. So. We have also the proceed to participate. It's a great opportunity. We have a lot of topics and. Fine things. Any other events. You've seen your radar and. Haven't covered. Okay. If you find something interesting. It's still free to add this. I saw events. Keep it on track. Let's jump to the PR review. Wow. I don't understand if you don't have any. Yeah. I think maybe ever, I don't know. Or it's meant over a year for sure. That's good. It's a good thing. Yeah. So. So. Well, but at least we have issues, right? So we're. We've merged that exceptions. So that'd be probably a. Some smaller updates for that exceptions. Best practice. Guidelines. That's one of them. So we start like this particular order. Yeah. Whatever you think. Okay. So this is the. Just adding the title to the sessions. Yeah. Go ahead and opening. I think. So. Wanting to get it merged. Moving on that. We didn't notice it didn't even have a title. It's just a template. Oh, this. We have other content. But I have also seen like that. Well. So. It's a good thing. That's a good thing. But the title would be nice. Or any of it. Any. Any. So this is about documenting. Any. Exceptions to following best practices. That's the main point of this. Exceptions in the, in the sense of. Of the documentation. When or in a template. Yeah. So the main point is communicated when you don't follow a best practice. So. And specifically we're talking about best practices that you could follow. You know, there's lots of them that may not be applicable. So that's not what we're talking about. It's really when you have an applicable best practice. And. You believe that you have a reason to not follow that. In the application. The operation management of an application or the implementation. Of it. And. You want to communicate that. So that's what this is about. You want to communicate that you have an exception. You're not following it. So we use that non. Don't use root processes. In your container. Is. A best practice. By that, we mean you should, you normally shouldn't use root. But if you have a reason. That you really need to use root. Then you should communicate that versus. Just doing it and not telling anyone else. I mean, it may be valid, but the point is to actually communicate it so that the. Integration team, the operations team, the security people, whoever will be able to take action based on that. Okay. We're, we're okay with your exception. Or no, we can't do it for this particular environment. But the idea is just to, I mean, I was just thinking like possible titles, but one could be like expression. That's the section, like, I mean, that's the. But in this case, it's just like, I didn't want. So what about the. This is just emitting one for one single practice. So I don't know if you are consider like, I am multiple exceptions, like multiple best practice exception on this. Or, I mean, just trying to do a brainstorming here, like what could be possible titles for, for this. And play. We prefer like we can just as all, all these options here in the, in the issue, and maybe we can both later, like, we come to help or something like that. Sure. And a tag. Ian's assigned, but we should tag him again. This was his originally. Hopefully he'll take action. Does anyone have any other, I put a title. I mean, I didn't do title pace, but I put a title or another idea. And the zoom chat. Does anyone else have. Suggestions for a title for this document. No, I think the document exceptions. The following the best practice is works for me. Can you make that a bullet list? Okay. All of her. Have any suggestions. All right. Yeah. I would just put. Up here. Yeah. Would you tag in. For what? For a given of moral sense or like for more finding. The original template. He can, he may come in and go, oh yeah, it should have had this. Or he may go, that one sounds good. If he didn't respond by next week, then we can do a PR for one of those. Yeah, I think that we should have this one. Yeah. About them. What the point of places. So, so what I have seen is, I mean, that's what we have to. So what are the suggestions for this particular case. So one is like using example solutions like more to Savannah. So where you have to predefined the network. So you for the creation of the boat, you have to specify. How many nick do you need it and all these things. And I say, I'm sorry, different in the sense that you don't have to predefined those things, especially on the fly. When the pot are created. And they have that concept. It's in endpoint and client. So which is a little more flexible than the other ones. But could be the best practice for me, I guess, like the best practice is always the first of all is not to use. The fact that I please try to define as much as possible, all the networks, not patients. And the same and abandoned supports and patients. So basically you can find your resources. Supporting both solutions. You can have a patient's and obviously what it is going to. When it is, whatever that is the point in your. You know, it's just in those. The solution that you have. For example, if you call definition, you have both like an SM and motivation. When you deploy in your. Just going to take. That service only supports one or. And that's that in the case. So I don't know if we need to discuss a little bit more. About particular topic. And then. More information or writing something. Like a draft and. And start from there. Do you have some ideas around how those practices could be tested. The only, the only way that I think it's maybe. Having a single destination. And to. To test that or to deployment as a nice, like, for example. I'm very, I'm validated. The body spirit with. Two weeks. Yeah, probably. The only. Like, like trying. First with multiple. With that. We are close with. Enable it. I'm very fine. There are two weeks there. I think it's doable. Probably. Yeah. Because of it. But that's just manipulating the. The. The Cuban. Cluster. Why, why, because you're thinking about the. The conformance test. Yeah, the, yeah, for the. Ideally any practice that we end up. Being able to document a best practice, we can also. Figure out how to include it in the CNF certification. I don't want it to be a blocker. I think that if we have enough. Ideas. We can. Information that we can write something up. Then we should do that. So if you feel. Good enough with what you're thinking then starting a draft. That can be a. Whatever you think it can. Go into a. Mark down or you can create a Google doc or whatever, maybe just link it to this. Or add it to the meeting notes, whatever you think. Then start drafting and start working on it. No worries, Tom. See you. He's gone. All right. So. We can reach out to Daniel and say, you know, if he can contribute as well. If, if you think you can get started with a draft. And then we can just keep in mind that. Ideally, we'd like to figure out how we can test. And the best practice may end up having a lot of. Various ways of testing, just like there's various ways of implementing. Which fine. Yeah, the other thing. I know. Dan was very active in the past. So now it seems to be. Mostly deprecated. I don't know what the current status of that project. So. I think that you also mentioned genius. Was another alternative. Or was. But anyway, yeah, probably. I might be. Are going to have just know the possible. The solution. Or just pick two of them or three. Okay. Yeah, I can start doing the. The draft for each. Writing ideas and then maybe we can have another call where we. Talk about. Some of the testing aspects. Just thinking about it. I know that. Part of it. The, because there's no standard way of declaring. That you would, you're open to using any of the multiplexers. And you just want to. Say, give me multiple network connections. And right now there's no standard. Way of communicating that. Then. There could be multiple implementations. So. Testing. In some ways seems like it's implementation. Specific. Anyways. If we have, if we start writing and talking about it, then maybe it'll move us closer to something that we'd like to see. I don't know what's going on with the newest. Versions of. Kubernetes where there's changes on the. The networking side, like the very newest releases that are coming out. I know that some of it's supposed to be addressing some of. The things that we've been saying, are you. Yeah, the latest stuff. From sig networking and everything. I haven't checked. Let me take a look at before. Yeah. Or. Or as part of the. Collecting information for that. Yeah, it's a good point. Yeah, maybe they did. Some. There's some change on this particular topic. Yeah. This is from. Christina. Um. It has almost a year. Oh, okay. Uh, yes, I can take that action item. To update the table of contents. The test categories in the table of contents. So you have to modify the other best practices that templates or. I mean, it's. Even older. We color is with. Uh, the best practices that we have. Or it's just something different. This is more like a. Using the capabilities of the container. I couldn't understand that last. Can you say it again? No, I was just thinking about if this is not today with the. The best practice that we have about. No name. Containers weird. This is a different thing, right? Yeah, correct. This is. This is about. Setting. Privilege equals. True for containers. Versus. Within a container having a process running as a route. Related, but not the same. And we do have a lot of documentation around this one. And we actually already have. Test. So this one would be. If we want to. Get one done soon. This is probably. One that we could knock out quickly. We have that big document with a lot of content around lease. Privilege. Yeah. I feel like there's some stuff mixed in here. That's not. The same, but. Anyways. Yeah. The name of the title is correct. The privilege flag. It's referring to in the manifest for the container. So it's just narrow. We know that the condition. In. Here, right. The only thing that attention. I mean, we, we need to draft a. A best practice or request for this one. I mean, sorry, what? No, I would just ask you for a volunteer. To continue on this. Go ahead and assign this one to me, the ticket. Are you. If you work on the draft for the networking and then maybe tag me for helping you review and help try to move that one forward. I have some time, Victor, to. Help review and stuff on this one. Yep, I can also help you on this. So do you want. We can. I think that we can both. Finest, right? Yes. Like this, right? That was the last one. I don't know. I don't know if there is any, anything else or anything that I have. Does anyone have anything else? I think I'm good. So. Thanks for attending this meeting. We will talk soon next week. Sounds good. Thanks, Victor. Thanks everyone. Bye bye. Thank you.


This was a heavyweight fight. Hit, set! We knew this was going to be a battle. Well for blow, we scored, they scored. That's the thing about this team, we're just resilient. We're going to keep swinging, we're going to keep swinging, and we're going to make a big play at the end of the game. Randy kicked a great kick, so I'm just happy that we won the game. Step, set, kick. Ain't no talking to no nine, you got to play. Mike Keith, and this is the Mike Brable show. News hit yesterday that Derrick Henry needed foot surgery. That surgery today, and now the focus on Derrick Henry, healing. Yep, that's all we're hoping for is that he takes it, and I know he'll work as hard as he possibly can, and we care a lot about Derrick, and he means a lot to us on and off the football field. A lot of people focusing on who takes his place. Adrian Peterson added to the practice squad. You played against him, didn't you? I might have. I might have, probably not very well, but it was just somebody that we worked out, and we felt like it's going to give us some options here at the end of the week, and extremely talented physical runner, so we'll kind of see where he is at the end of the week. Got to play it on out, and the Titans will play the Rams on Sunday, but let's first take a look back at this past Sunday's big win over the Indianapolis Colts, starting with defense. Titans down 14 to nothing. Colts had converted two fourth downs. They go for it again. They don't make it, and it's a turning point. No, and it was. It was a huge play for us. We knew they were going to go for it a lot on fourth down, and so we were able to kind of get them into a zone look there. We lined up in man and played a little bit of zone, and he aired Meld 1, but I felt like we were in good position to force that incompletion right there. So the Titans are able to get it to 14 to 7, and then Wentz dropping the throw, and he finds Harold Landry coming after him a little bit later. Landry now with eight and a half sacks on the seat. He is racking them up, and then you're going to see here this game. He takes it up the field. Tanico does a nice job there, grabbing two guys, and Harold's able to snap it off and get a sack, and we have to continue to get some production, and we have. But you can see Harold kind of selling it there with speed, and then being able to come around into the pocket as the quarterback there is trying to duck into another penalty. So Wentz goes down. Wentz in trouble late in the ball game, as well in the end zone. Titans with a good rush, and the beneficiary, the rookie, Elijah Bow. Yep, we got to affect the quarterback, and this is certainly a play here. Harold's all over, he sniffs it out, and Elijah looked like a jumping jack flash coming out of there, jumped up, and kind of took the ball, and you see Harold obviously bud the effort to get up there, to get on there and affect the quarterback and to force him into a bad decision, and we're there to capitalize. That's a heady play by the young man. Go to overtime. Game's tied at 31. Feels like the Colts have the momentum. Let's look at a couple of plays from OT. Second down at six at their own 34. Initial possession. Look at this. Monty Wright's play. Well, yep, we're getting some pressure there. We'd love to be able to get the quarterback back there, and Monty's coming over there, and he's tight on his guy, and doesn't give up any run after catch, and obviously forces him in completion. But good pressure there by David and Jeff. We're just going to have to keep the quarterback in the pocket and try to get him on the ground. All right, so that makes it third down at six. You see a rookie make a play there. Here's a second-year player who makes a play on the third down effort. We're talking about Chris Jackson. Yep, and he's battling. We knew they were going to take shots, and Chris is all over it. They're clamoring for another pass interference penalty. Thought it was well timed. They try to throw one over our heads, and Chris coming back and bang, bang, play, and he's playing the football. I thought it was a really good play. The Titans go three and out, and the ball goes back to the Colts. And then it's the defense that makes the play, setting up the game-winning field goal. We're talking about Kevin Byte. Yep, they're in a snug formation there, and Kevin had a great understanding of what was going to go on. You could see David and threw it into their Titans team meeting, and Kevin was able to come over there and make a play on it, but I felt like there were some other guys doing a really nice job of covering and being there to help make the play. As we've shown these defensive plays, look at all the different names we've mentioned. We run through as many as we have. That's good? They all play. That's good. Okay, I'll look at the defense here. I'll look at the offense next, when the Mike Brable show continues. It started with a defensive six-pack. How about an offensive six-pack for the Titans? Down 14 to nothing. Titans get the ball back at their own 40-yard line. 60-yard drive ends with a touchdown pass to a Titan. Yep, got some good play-action sell, and you know, Ryan's able to stay in the pocket. You know, a lot of guys, we've got some moving parts there going with Derek and the puller, and you know, he's able to kind of find Jeff in there right behind the backer, and you know, it's good for those Titans to do all that dirty work, to go down there and get a couple touchdowns, and you know, Pruitt had been getting them, so now it's nice to see Swam get one. Titans had seven catches in the ballgame. Swam with four of them, Pruitt with two, and Firks are with a grab. That makes it 14 to seven. So then after a very strange play, an interception, fumble, recovered by the Titans, gives him a first down on the 43. How about a little AJ Brown?   You can see him hammering at the football right there, and you know, sometimes when you hammer at the football, sometimes you miss tackles, and they go for touchdowns. That's a 218-pound corner. That's a 230-something pound receiver. I know, okay. So 17-14, we're playing the football game in the third quarter Titans trail, but they're going on a drive, and it's a third down early, so how about a little more AJ Brown? Why not? Just great protection.  It all starts with up front.  It's a little behind him, and he makes a quarterback right there. All right, so a little further into that drive, it's fourth and two.  Yep, we're just trying to be calculated. We're trying to use the field position, and you know, what we feel like the game dictates, and you know, felt real confident about this play, and you know, guys made us right. You know, Ryan made a great decision there with the, you know, taking it and pulling it, and getting around the edge. Two 13-yard runs in the ball game for Tana Hill, who has 165 yards rushing on the season. Drive continues. It's now over seven minutes long. It's third down and four at the Indianapolis five-yard line in WI. That's Nick Westbrook Aquino, and you can just see, man, this is, this is growth right here. This is a receiver going in there, using his size, the quarterback trusting him, and catching the ball out in front of his body. You know, these are contested catches, and we've been through this, and that's a perfect example of a wide receiver going and catching the ball out in front of his body, not letting it get into his pads, just the same good protection. But you can see that DB can't even get to that football. It's not bad coverage, but he makes the point. That's it. You let that ball get into your shoulder pads, they're able to bat it down, or bad things happen. So, you know, you go and see Nick, and that's a great picture of that, and that's why he's in there, because we trust him to do those types of things. Okay, so we showed you the buyered interception. This is not really offense, but this completes the six-pack. Let's watch Randy Bullock do his thing from 44 yards to win. Give Randy some love. You know, Randy has done a great job since he's been here, you know, just coming in and providing some stability for us, and this is huge, and just really a lot of credit goes to him to come in here and make these kind of kicks for us. And some stability with Morgan Cox snapping it, and Brett Kern as the holder back in there, and that consistent rhythm for a kicker so big. Well, the operation, and I think people always undermine the operation, but the operation is critical. It's laces, it's the tilt, and Randy being able to put it through. Randy Bullock, 15 of 17 on the year for the Tennessee Titans kicking field goals. Titans win to go to six and two. That was an important game, but this is the most important game on the Mike Brable show. It's Delta dentals. Can you guess this type? Probably not, but we'll find out. All right, here we go. Can you guess this type? It's a unique look with the mustache. An amazing mustache. It is. All right, we need to go to break. You've had enough of a look. When we come back, Mike Brable will let us know if he can guess this Titan presented by Delta Dental on his show, the Mike Brable show. It's his favorite part of the show every week. No, it's not. Delta dentals, can you guess this Titan? Mike Brable acts like he doesn't like it, but he loves it. He says we should do it in every segment of the show. I love Delta Dental, but I hate this game. It's so hard. I'm not that good at it, but I'm good tonight because that's Jeremy McNichols. Jeremy McNichols. Yes! See? Three catches for 33 yards in the game. I know, and a huge catch. Huge catch and a great play by Ryan. Ryan's going to his left, puts that ball, layers it out there. Jeremy catches it. He's able to corral it, secure the catch, you know, and get us almost the first down and give us an opportunity to go for it on fourth down. I thought his stretch might have gotten the first down. That's pretty good effort there. Hard telling. Hard telling what that crew, but we'll see. All right. All right. So Jeremy McNichols was this week's, can you guess this Titan as far as Delta Dental? This week in the Titans Files, we go on the other side of the ball, for someone known for his size, his strength, his effort, and his leadership. And who better to talk about him than one of the great leaders of the team? Amy Wells convinced an offensive lineman to talk nice about a defensive lineman. In this week's Titans Files. Dropping to throw Allen. Has time. If you want to discuss a talented defensive lineman, the best person to ask for expertise would only figure to be an offensive lineman. The problem with that is, most offensive linemen loathe to discuss their counterparts on the other side of the line of scrimmage. It's almost a rule. Offensive linemen never ever talk about defensive linemen, not publicly at least. So when we asked Titan center Ben Jones to discuss his teammate, Jeffrey Simmons, we expected Jones might tell us to get lost. Instead, the team leader was pleased to praise his young teammate, even if he plays on the other side of the line. We love Jeffrey. He's on our team and I'm glad he's on our team because it could be some long Sundays if you had to go against him. He brings intensity. He brings a style of ball that as an offensive player, you want him on your team. He's a guy that brings energy and he's coming every play. And that's a guy you can build around. He's a leader over there as a young kid. I think he's 24, 25 and literally, he has more ranks over there than anybody because God's trusting. And the way you earn that is how you work and he works. He makes guys better on the team. He's not going to let you slack. He's not going to let a guy take plays off and that's what a leader does. As a defensive player, no matter if somebody beats you, he's not going to give up on a play. He chases the ball down, he strips it, he picks up fumbles and the amount of effort he plays with. The play's never over on defense and that's our style of ball over there.  That's high praise from Ben Jones, who's a leader on this Titans roster. Ben knows that when it comes to linemen looks, can be deceiving. Some of the best football players are often guys with the worst physiques and vice versa. Sometimes guys who are built like action movie superstars can't play a lick. But when it comes to Jeffrey Simmons, well, they don't call him big Jeff for nothing. And he may be in a movie with the rocks someday, but that's not going to be until he has a long NFL career. Yeah, you've seen when he walks in, he works hard, he's got given ability. He's built, he's strong, he's powerful, and this is his mindset. You've got to have a certain mindset to play that on that ball and play snap in over and over again and he's got it. He looks the part, he plays the part and he can talk the talk. So he's a total package over there. Jeffrey Simmons is a type of guy you want to mold your defense around. He's big, strong, powerful, and he plays with a relentless effort. He's the guy you want on your team. Thanks, Amy. Always glad to have a chance to talk about Jeffrey Simmons. A lot of times big guys don't have a motor because they've always been big and they haven't needed it. Jeffrey Simmons, on the other hand, has a motor that goes on. He conditions himself. He plays extremely hard. He's been a force for us inside since he's gotten here and he's only continued to improve. And, you know, what a great piece, a lot of respect from another, you know, warrior coming out of these games and takes a lot of snaps for us. And, you know, he's far from 100%. And I just appreciate his effort. I appreciate his leadership, everything you said there at the beginning of that piece. You challenge him, though. You challenge him to be better. Where can he continue to grow?  And he'll continue to do that. When we come back, Mike Rabel's Nissan Keys to winning in Los Angeles. That's next on the Mike Rabel Show. Titans first trip as the Titans to Los Angeles. The Rams the opponent. 720 kickoff at SoFi Stadium on Sunday night. Time for the Nissan Keys to victory. Let's start with taking care of Ryan Tannehill protection of the utmost importance. It's going to be huge. And we saw some clips earlier in the show about when we have a good pocket and he could step up and throw. Aaron Donnell leads the charge. I mean, we're going to have to have a lot of hands on this guy and take care of them. Sebastian's in there pounding around Robinson. So it's going to start inside out for us upfront. And Von Miller plays for their team now. Oh, I guess he does, but we'll have to take care of the middle pocket and hope we can run him by. All right. The second key field position in special teams. This is an area where you're playing real well right now. We're doing better. You know what I mean? We got to take care of these kickoff returns and we got to be able to go down there. And be consistently violent on our kickoff coverage. But we have had some kickoff returns that are close and we're gaining some yards. We took the ball from the seven yard line out to the 26 yard line the other day. That's a huge deal right there. Yeah. Nice job by Chester Rogers. Not fair catching that one. He fooled me. He fooled a lot of people. Yeah. Nice job by him. All right. So for Nissan key number three, I'm going to do my coach Dave McGinnis. We've got to limit those explosives, coach. No question. And it comes down to everybody doing their job. You know, Cooper Cup leads the league in 20 yard receptions. This is a team that's explosive on offense. They're operating at full capacity and they're very efficient. So that'll be critical. We do a great job in X plays. We got a chance to win. We'll see you out in California. See you buddy. All right. We come back. We wrap it up and remind you that the Titans have seen Matthew Stafford in the last 12 months. Maybe you don't remember. We've got to refresh your cords on the Mike Rable show. Matthew Stafford of the Los Angeles Rams is the number two rated passer in the entire National Football League right now. He's in year 13, in year one with the Rams after 12 seasons in Detroit. The Titans actually saw him at Nissan Stadium less than a year ago and they were impressed. The story of that week was that Matthew Stafford likely would not play at Tennessee on December 20th. Stafford suffered a rib cartilage injury on a six yard run against Green Bay in the previous game. And why would Stafford play? In his 12th NFL season with his head coach already having been fired, careening towards another losing season in Detroit with rumors everywhere that he would be traded in the off season. Why play? But Stafford chose to play in Nashville and played well. Down seven to nothing early. He took the Lions down the field for a first quarter touchdown to tie the game. He hit Marvin Jones with a 39 yard pass that pulled Detroit within six late in the first half. Midway through the third quarter Stafford's arm was still on display as he completed this 36 yard pass to keep the Lions within one school. The Titans would pull away in the final 20 minutes of the game. It was the familiar faces doing the damage. Derek Henry, Ryan Tannehill, Moore, Derek Henry and eventually Stafford left the game. But not before he completed 22 of 32 passes for 252 yards in a touchdown. He impressed everyone not just with his obvious talent but with his desire to play on a day when few thought he would or should. That's why when Matthew Stafford was traded to the Los Angeles Rams on St. Patrick's Day people who know football knew it would be a perfect fit. A very talented, experienced quarterback in a super offensive system with an exciting new lease on his football life that he clearly loves. I think he's having fun right now. They're seven and one. He hasn't been sacked much and they're playing the Titans on Sunday Night Football this week. We've got it for you on 104-5 The Zone beginning at six with Titans Countdown. For Mike Vrabel, I'm Mike Keith. Thanks for joining us and we'll see you next time.


Hello everyone and happy new year. This is Melissa Armell with the Stock Swoosh. We're getting into the end of 2020, only a few more days left in this year. 2021 is fast approaching. The best advice I can give you and the Stock Swoosh tip of the day is, make a plan of action, decide what you want and then act on it. Don't hesitate. So many people who are trading are floundering. They don't have a plan of action.  And also the focus on what you want to accomplish and why are you trading? Are you trading for passive income, for part-time income?  Do you want to leave your current career and actually become a professional trader by the end of 2021? Whatever it is you want to do, you have to know what it is. Part of creating what you want is first visualizing it, then you will be able to manifest it. But if you can't even visualize or conceive of the dream or the goal that you have, how in the world are you going to achieve it? So it is a perfect, perfect time of the year to start to imagine what you want, visualize it, create it, manifest it. A lot of people talk about New Year's resolutions. I'm not a big person for New Year's resolutions. That to me is something like you wanna change about yourself or break a habit or stop smoking or diet, whatever people normally do in January. Or exercise programs, that's another big thing for people to start in January. But really, at the end of the year and the beginning of the next calendar year, I really start to think about my goals for that year and what I want to manifest and what I want to achieve. And I'm very big on doing that. It works, it works. And it's worked for me for my whole life and it continues to work and it can work for you too. So that is my best advice to you right now into the end of 2020. If you're interested in more information or learning my trading strategy, email me and Melissa at thestockswish.com or go to www.thestockswish.com for upcoming classes and upcoming specials for 2021. Have a great day, everyone.
