Well, it's a great pleasure to join you here as Australia's environment and energy minister together with my foreign minister representing our country here at COP 22. It has to be said there is a positive mood here at Marrakesh, given what has transpired in the last 12 months, to think that in that period more than 190 countries have adopted targets to reduce their emissions at Paris, that the agreement was subsequently signed and now has been ratified by more than 100 different nations. And Australia is very proud to be part of one of those nations that has now ratified the agreement. And together with the work that was done through the Montreal Protocol to phase down the use of HFCs, hydrofluorocarbons, at which Australia was the co-chair of the working group. The agreement recently in the international aviation sector to reduce emissions. And the other work that we are doing through the Green Climate Fund, of which Australia is a co-chair with South Africa, and the Climate Finance Roadmap, which we worked side by side with the UK to lead, has been a sign of the significant momentum that is gathering around the world to actually reduce our emissions in a significant way to meet our targets. It's also a particular pleasure to be here at the Global Landscapes Forum. And this is an important forum, the world's leading event for innovative ideas on sustainable land use. The land sector accounts for nearly 20% of global emissions. Australia is a world leader in measuring and managing land sector emissions due in no small part to our geography. We are the world's largest island, and at the same time the world's smallest continent. Today I want to make three points about Australia's recent experiences. The first is about the importance of establishing the capacity to measure and manage our carbon in the landscapes. The second is about how Australia is sharing our expertise and working with partners in our region, including through the Asia Pacific Rainforest Summit. And the third is about the need to extend our knowledge to measuring and managing blue carbon in better ways. First measuring and managing carbon in our land. Australia's land mass is immense. We have a land area of 8 million square kilometres. Over half of this is agricultural land, with around 14% being forest. Being able to measure carbon in the Australian landscape is absolutely critical to tracking our progress towards our emissions reduction targets. We also know that what you can't measure, you can't manage. Australia was an early adopter of sophisticated satellite observation and carbon modelling methods to estimate emissions from the land sector. The investments we have made in our inventory system are now paying dividends. Not only has our system consistently been found to meet the UNFCCCC's high standards, it also provides the foundation for our domestic mitigation efforts. This includes our emissions reduction fund, which delivers the lowest cost abatement from across the economy. It's driving significant emissions reductions and has had a big effect on traditional owners of the land, farmers and other land holders. The fund has secured more than 143 million tonnes of abatement, over three auctions in the past two years, and the fourth auction is occurring as we speak. Over 115 million tonnes or 80% of all the emission reductions under this fund are from the land sector. This includes projects that will allow natural forests to regrow, store carbon in the soil and reduce methane emissions from the intensive livestock industry. Our policy is also driving important co-benefits. A private example is Savannah Fire Management across the north of Australia. These projects reduce late season wild bushfires and deliver significant abatement. More than 8 million tonnes are currently estimated to have been saved. But of equal importance is that these projects improve the protection of the cultural and environmental values, allowing our indigenous people and traditional land owners to remain on country and to actively manage important cultural sites. The second area I wanted to talk about was capacity building and partnerships. Australia is sharing its expertise and working with partners to build their capacity to manage and to measure carbon in their landscape. More than 100 countries have recognised the role of the land sector in their national contributions at the Paris Agreement. Australia is working with partner countries in our region to support the development of these systems so that they can accurately and transparently report greenhouse gas emissions. This includes our long-standing and productive work with Indonesia to support its development of forest management, reporting and verification. And also working with the United States, Norway and FAO and global space agencies to ensure that all countries can benefit from this expertise through the Global Forest Observations Initiative. In terms of the Asia-Pacific Rainforest Summit, we convened this a few years ago and it supports the implementation of the Paris Agreement and reduces emissions from deforestation. In Australia's region, a conservative estimate of emissions from forest and land use change is approximately 1 billion tonnes of CO2 per year from Southeast Asia and the Pacific Islands. This is nearly twice Australia's annual total emissions from all sectors. Given the scale of this challenge, I was pleased to join ministers from across the Asia-Pacific in Brunei earlier this year at the partnership second Asia-Pacific Rainforest Summit. Discussions at the summit underlined three key challenges in my mind. The first was that governments in the region are committed to conserve their great forest, yet progress and practical results have been slow. The second, the private sector needs to be at the table if we are going to tackle the causes of deforestation and attract more sustainable investments and industries. And three, we need to develop cost-effective credible methods for measuring and managing forest carbon. Given these challenges, I'm pleased to confirm today that Australia will commit $16 million to an Indo-Pacific land action package. This package will support a range of measures to promote emissions reductions in the land sector, including supporting innovative public-private sector partnerships. This investment builds on the objectives of the Asia-Pacific Rainforest Summit and the Global Landscapes Forum in conserving the region's forests and carbon stock. Finally, the third topic I wanted to mention was the international partnership for blue carbon. After launching the international blue carbon partnership, Australia has welcomed several new members, including the UAE and the Nature Conservancy, who have expressed their support for the partnership at this COP. This is an important example and an innovative one of countries, research organisations and NGOs working together to achieve positive climate outcomes in our landscapes. There is a growing recognition of the critical importance of different landscapes, not just forests, but also coastal blue carbon ecosystems such as mangroves, tidal marshes and seagrasses. These systems sequester up to four times the amount of carbon that is sequestered by terrestrial forests, and their loss is a significant contributor to global deforestation emissions. Our vision is for more countries to incorporate blue carbon into their nationally determined contributions, and again this will require getting the basics in place – the methods for measurement, reporting and verification, and subsequently linking prospective projects with climate finance. In Australia we are beginning to build blue carbon into our national inventory and will look to share what we learn with the partnership to help build capacity in managing and measuring these systems. In conclusion, I am proud of Australia's expertise in the land sector and of our track record in building this capacity in our region, and our efforts to find new ways to support climate action in our landscapes. As our Prime Minister and Australia Malcolm Turnbull has said, Australia is at the forefront of energy and climate science innovation. Australia will continue to forge new ground as well as find ways to help others, including some of our nearest Pacific neighbours who are particularly vulnerable to the impacts of climate change. We will continue to bring our innovative thinking and technical expertise to bear on the key challenges of meeting both our own targets and our collective ambitions under the Paris Agreement. I thank you for joining us at this important event, and I wish you all well in our deliberation as to how we protect, preserve and promote our beautiful landscapes. Thank you very much.

How's it going my friends? You know what's happening right now? Something very exciting. A bike boom! That's right, bike stores are seeing a surge in sales during the pandemic. Quarantine has caused a spike in popularity. We've gone through about a year's worth of bikes in the last 30 days. The pandemic has been horrible. Over 100,000 dead in the US alone. Unheard of unemployment levels and an economic downturn that will take years to recover from. But there are a handful of silver linings. And one of them is that bicycle sales are skyrocketing in the US and beyond. Why is this? Well people are looking for ways to get outside and exercise. And some people in big cities are using bikes to avoid public transportation. They're a great way to keep distance from other people and have fun. We all know that bikes are fun. And I'm glad that so many people are giving it a shot. On a personal level, biking has been huge for my mental well-being these past few months. It always has been. But I've been very grateful for my bike these days. So with this surge in sales, I've been curious about how this is affecting my friends in the bike industry. If you watch my videos, you've heard me talk about people for bikes. They're a nonprofit with a mission to make cycling better and safer in the US. And I like putting their stickers everywhere. Well, with the magic of Zoom, let's jump into a conversation with the president of People for Bikes, Tim Blumenthal. Tim, how you doing, bud? All right. Great to see you. Thanks for giving me a call. Absolutely, my friend. So first of all, tell people, what does People for Bikes do? I think the one thing that we want people to know, and it's the core to our mission, it's we try to make bike riding better for everyone. And that's every type of bike riding. And when we say everyone, we even mean people who will never ride a bike. There's a surge in bike sales. How is that affecting people for bikes and what you do? Well, you're nice to ask. People for bikes during this very difficult, challenging time is doing fine, is doing well. And to be honest, when the pandemic hit, we thought it was going to be really terrible for bike riding and also for people for bikes. And so we immediately made some cuts. Of course, one of the ways that we're able to save is we spend a lot of money on travel, getting out there, meeting with government leaders, meeting with partner organizations, the industry. We're not traveling at all. So we save some money that way. But it's not so much in my mind about what's happening with people for bikes. And again, we're doing fine. It's the opportunity. It's what's what is the opportunity that's coming out of this huge societal global challenge to advance bicycling and make it more popular. And what are some of the things that you are doing? What are some of the opportunities? You know, I see a lot of cities are closing down streets and making them safer for pedestrians and bikes. But that's temporary. Do you think stuff like that will become permanent now that the cities realize, wow, this is actually a great thing. Well, you could do this for a living because that's exactly we hope that these become permanent.  And there's so many exciting case studies happening in U.S. cities and towns, you know, absolutely everywhere, not just in the the cities that traditionally have been most supportive of bicycling. But a lot of it is just allocating more public space to bike riding. And then the other is, which is most important is the recognition that when you do that and you support bike riding, so many different good things happen. And we've always known that. And for the last, you know, 40 years, I've been promoting, you know, that when people ride bikes, great things happen. And now it's really encouraging because people who never believe that or never even thought about it are starting to get it. You know, and we do get it. I'm a cyclist. All my followers are cyclists. We get the joy of cycling and the environmental benefits and the health benefits. What are some of the benefits that non-cyclists might see having more pedestrians on the road? Well, you know, heading into this year, we thought it was going to be a huge year for cycling because there's growing awareness of the pitfalls of climate change, you know, the huge fires in Australia and the melting of the polar ice cap, visible, tangible things. And then three out of the last four years have been the hottest in recorded history. So we thought that maybe this year more people would take the personal initiative to ride bikes when they can, not necessarily to work because it was something that they could do. But now the benefits go so far beyond that. And it's an easy way to get from point A to point B. It's something that provides both mental and physical relief. And people have been quarantined at home. And you know, I know when you get out there on your bike, it's just it makes you feel better and it makes you feel optimistic. And for me and for you, there's the additional factor, which is you see so many people out there smiling, so many families. And one specific thing that I'd like to mention is that right now, there are no youth sports leagues or and kids are returning to bikes with their parents in great numbers. And we're really hopeful that that experience for those kids. And we're talking about a lot of kids continues for the rest of their lives. Let's talk quickly about e-bikes. You know, e-bike sales have been on the rise in the United States.  I bought my mom an e-bike and it's changed her life in a lot of ways. What are some of the initiatives you guys are looking into with e-bikes? Well, first we have to make sure that e-bikes are legal according to state laws. And we've been working state by state and we've got about half the states to clarify e-bike, the legality of e-bikes, because I think that when they first came out, they kind of got grouped with moped's and low power motorcycles. And in our minds, most e-bikes are fundamentally bicycles. And it's a great opportunity to promote a brand of cycling that allows people who are 137 years old like me and people who have longer distances to travel to work or the store or to school or to anywhere. It increases the practical range for people. And e-bike sales have essentially doubled in the United States in each of the last three years. And this year may be an even bigger period of growth. The pandemic has been very scary. It's been a tough couple months for most people on this planet. Leave us with some hope and inspiration. Where do you see us in five or 10 years as far as the cycling world? This has been a really difficult time. But it's also been a time where many of us are fundamentally reassessing what's important in our lives, in our communities, and for our planet. You know, I liked what the mayor of Oakland, California said, which is, you know, this is a moment to stop. We have to deal with the unbelievable, daunting, practical challenges that are related to the pandemic and the recovery. But we can also think about the way that we live. And my expectation is that not just the next six months, but the next six years, or hopefully the next 60 years, are going to be great for bicycling. It's going to become more central, more practical, more appreciated. And I'm not just talking about bike riding from point A to point B. I'm talking about the recreational side too. So I believe always in all the discussions that I've been a part of, and all the speeches that I've given, and way too many, I always finish by saying when people ride bikes, great things happen. And I think that's more true now than ever before. And it's likely to carry into the future. What can we do to help people for bikes in the future? Well, we would say the most important thing is to be aware of what's happening locally and be supportive of local efforts. Because it all starts with what you see and where you ride. And community comes first. I do think that standing up and reaffirming what we say every day, that bicycling is a good thing and should be supported and bicycling should be made safe. That might mean writing a letter to a local newspaper. It might mean picking up the phone and calling your member of Congress and saying, hey, keep up the good work, support bicycling. It really makes our community better. We want people to take simple steps. And I guess the last thing that I'd say is if you have a neighbor who doesn't ride a bike, you don't have to push them out onto the bike, but you can encourage them. And I know you've done that thousands of times. And all of your videos have done a great job of that. So thank you for that. And we're not asking people to become preachers or evangelists in a big way. But a little bit is great. I love it, man. Thank you so much for your time today. And I hope you have a wonderful weekend. Now, if you're one of the people who just bought your first bike or you need a refresher on basic bike maintenance, I will link below to a series of videos I made with people for bikes that covers everything you need to know to keep your bike in tip top shape. All right, now let's head over to New York City and talk to my man Dave from Priority Bikes. Priority is all about making high quality, low maintenance bicycles. And they've been selling like hotcakes during the pandemic. Yo, buddy. Yo, y'all, what's up? Hey, I got Connor here making sure my angles are right. So tell me, what's it been like the past couple of months? I'm hearing stories that it's kind of nuts. What's going on at Priority Bikes? Yeah, kind of nuts is probably a good way to say it. It's been wild. Business has been crazy. We have seen a huge boom in the demand for bicycles, which is incredible. It's great for, I think, for our business. It's also just great for the world getting more people on bicycles is why we got into this. And so seeing it really happen now is wonderful. We've seen it change over the last couple of weeks dramatically. It really started first with kids bikes. So the minute all of the kids, the minute that schools started shutting down, it was like summer came early. So there's usually a little bike boom when children get out of school because parents are rushing to, what do we do with our children? So first we saw a real rush with kids bikes. But as adults started to stay home from work, we also have seen a real increase in the demand for the leisure segment. So that's kind of that $500 price point bike has really boomed big time. And how have you dealt with this? Were you ready for these types of sales? How was your inventory? Were you, were you just like, yes, finally, this is what we've been waiting for? Yeah, no, I wish, right? So if we could print bicycles, if they didn't take four months to get bikes, we'd be having a really successful time right now. Unfortunately, a lot of the parts do come from Asia. So we already had a slow supply chain and then the increased demand has created stock outages all over the bike industry. I think we're able to react pretty quickly, but we certainly weren't ready for it from an inventory perspective. I'd say that the processes we put in place over the last couple of years, putting the service level agreements in place a couple of years ago, really has helped us to react. The other thing that's helped us to react is just that our team was already very digital. So we'd architected the company that, with the exception of our warehouse, people could work from anywhere. So as New York started to stay at home orders and we weren't able to come together as a team, we were able to all still fulfill our jobs remotely and fulfill customer demand. We were able to scale up our customer service because our customer service load has been tremendous. At priority, we do customer service 365 days a year from that morning till 10 at night.  You get us at a lot of weird hours. And you know, we say we're off at 10 at night, but if you call it 11, often you'll get somebody. You know, and our email response time is usually around 10 minutes. So keeping to that when you have four to five X demand has been a little difficult. But we've enjoyed it. And you know, I don't think anybody goes to work in the bike industry to get rich. I think people go to work. I mean, you did, I think. Yeah, well, I've been working in the bike industry for the money. In my house. I think you do it because you love it and you want to talk about bikes and you want to get more people riding bikes. So for us, it's been really fulfilling. Having more people ask about bikes and about our bikes and about what makes our bikes unique and how our bikes can help make their day better has been really compelling for us. Yeah. And also you live in New York City with your family. What do the streets look like? Or do you see more people riding bikes? Is there avoiding public transport? Yeah. So where I live downtown is a little deserted. And I think it's a combination of a lot of people are not going outside and a lot of people have left because New York got a little scary and it's still a little scary. So there's less people yet there's a lot more bicycles because people are not taking the subway and the buses like they normally do. You know, people that live where I do don't have cars. So typically people ride the subway and bus. Now they're biking. So there's a lot more cyclists. There's a lot less motorists. One of the challenges is that the bike lanes are just super packed. And while the city's starting to open up some automotive lanes for bikes, it's not enough. And so it's, you know, my favorite place is to go riding. I can't go anymore unless I'm going at seven in the morning. Because if you go at nine in the morning, it's just too packed. Yeah. Let's go back to something you said earlier about supply chain. I'm guessing it's because the factories in China were closed because they were hit with the virus first. That affected your inventory, essentially. That's right. So everything on a bike, 98% of what's found on a bike comes from China and Taiwan. Yeah. And so while the pandemic or the virus hit them earlier, their factories were closed. They were backed up. So then there was a backlog that we had to work through. Now we're at a place where lead times are pretty much back to normal. But it still takes a good four months to get a bike made. Yeah. And, you know, as a company, you got into this business to get more people on bikes. What's your hope for the future? Where do you think this trend right now is going to take us? Are we going to stick with it and ride these bikes? Or is it just going to be like a New Year's resolution that people are going to dump them out for a few months? Are we going to get some more bike advocacy going and safer streets and all that? You know, I hate using the term gateway drug, but we've always felt those of us that have been in the bike industry and have sold bikes and bike shops and certainly work with a bike manufacturer, we've always felt that if you could get started on a basic bike that y'all start to really enjoy cycling. And I think that's going to happen now. What we're seeing is a lot more families riding together. We hope that's going to stick because I think that's good for the world. And then as people do start to go back to work, what we're thinking is that the commuting segment's going to really jump up. So our business was really heavy on the commuting segment before the pandemic. Right now we're very heavy on the recreational segment and our prediction is that the commuting segment's going to jump back up. As these recreational riders start to go back to work and say, gee, I don't want to take the bus. I don't want to take the subway. Or even better yet, I don't want to drive my car. And then they'll get a commuter bike and start to realize the benefits of cycling. And I do think that a lot of these streets that are starting to open up to cyclists, hopefully are going to stay open. I don't see how we get out of this without there being more bike trails and more bike advocacy for there being more bike trails and open streets. I think it's a good thing for the bike industry. But more importantly, like I said, I think it's a good thing for the world. More people on bikes is good for the world. Totally. Is that my bike over your shoulder right there? Yeah. So behind me, I have a Priority 600 and I have a Priority Proof. Oh, those are nice-looking bikes, man. You do what's called contactless pickup. So there are customers in New York. You're not like a bike store where people really go in and shop. But if somebody wants to buy something, what's the process there? Yeah. So our business model is that we're an online company. We ship our bikes all across the world. Anybody who wants them, they come 95% assembled. Tools are in the box for the last 5%. When we opened our showroom here in New York City, we started offering in-store pickup. So if you want to buy a bike online, ship it to our location, we'll assemble it. Come to the showroom. We'd love to meet you. We'd love to size you on your bike. Learn more about you. And that's what we've been doing for a number of years. The minute the pandemic started and businesses started to close, and we realized that social distancing was important, we got all sorts of requests for people to pick up bikes. And we didn't want to have them in the showroom. We didn't think it was safe to. So we came up with this really simple contactless pickup option. Customers can buy bikes. They ship from our warehouse into our office. We assemble them. We then come up with a secret five-digit code. We schedule a time. We lock that bike up outside using that secret five-digit code. We sanitize the bike. We walk away. They come and pick it up. They get to keep the lock. It's a very safe, simple transaction. And it's been going great. I mean, I think yesterday alone, we did 15 of them. 15 bikes. Really popular. Yeah. Very good. Yeah, locally. New York is not typically our biggest market. California is. So, but New York has been very big for us recently. That's awesome. Well, Dave, you're one of my favorites. Thank you so much for spending some time with me today. I wish you all the best of luck. And let's ride bikes someday soon.  With this bike boom happening, there's an opportunity for you to be a serious do-gooder. In Boulder, our community bike shop needs more used bikes than ever because they're selling like crazy. And I bet you have something similar in your town. So go into your garage and pull out all those old bikes and donate them. You could be helping a kid get their very first bike. And it doesn't get any better than that. So thank you so much for watching my videos. Please like and subscribe and pump up those tires. It is summertime and it's time to ride.


social science and the scholarly communication that's built around exchanging social science knowledge has been kind of built on this myth of meritocracy so we actually believe that the ways that we evaluate both people and their scholarship means that the best rises to the top and you know that those Those journals that are ranked very highly whether we believe an impact factor We just believe that you know a high rejection rate means that they must be the ones that do get in are really good Or whether we believe that it's because the names we recognize are on the editorial board and therefore It must be really good. We really do kind of it's it's bizarre to me How much we as social scientists believe in the myth of meritocracy when we apply it to our own work instead of building it on the values of You know inclusion and equity and diversity and we very rarely Do we ask? You know sort of the kinds of questions that Frankly a feminist methodology would have us ask who's missing

Great. Can everybody hear me? Apologies for my voice. I'm fighting a little bit of a cold. So, as Lloyd just said, I'm going to be talking about the ocular manifestations of Fabry disease, also known as Anderson Fabry disease or Fabry's disease. In this talk, I'm going to start by describing a case. It's a hypothetical case, but it's very illustrative of the natural course of the disease. We're going to go over the basics of Fabry disease, the epidemiology, the pathophysiology, the signs and symptoms, especially as they pertain to ophthalmologists, and the interventions, again, focusing on where the ophthalmologist can come in. So we have a 14-year-old Caucasian male who presents to his family doctor complaining of occasional tingling of his hands and feet at times progressing to moderate pain. On physical exam, they note 40-50 small dark red-blue macules on the lower abdomen, buttocks, scrotum, and thighs. Some simple laboratory tests come back normal. He returned several years later for just a regular physical. He has the same peripheral neuropathy, but also occasional abdominal pain and diarrhea. On physical exam, more macules are noted. They send some more labs. Everything comes back normal, except the UA demonstrated some mild proteinuria. We'll jump forward to age 22. Our patient was hospitalized with swelling of his hands, feet, and around his eyes. He was told that his kidney function was at about 50 percent, and an eye exam by the internist demonstrated cloudy corneas. Further workup went on, and at age 23, finally a kidney biopsy was done. They were light microscopic changes, including glomerular, interstitial, and vascular disease. On electron microscope, you could see inclusions in the puttycytes, and the endothelial cells, and mesangial cells within the lysosomes. They sent a lab for alpha-galactosidase A, and the activity of that enzyme was markedly low at 11.9. Thus, diagnosing him with favorite disease. He went on, by age 40, he was on dialysis, had a stroke at age 50, and died at 55. So this case, it's very classic in terms of the timeline. The average length of time between first presentation of symptoms and diagnosis is about nine years. It's easily missed. So this patient presented at 14, and by 23, finally was diagnosed. Some basics on favorite disease. It's a rare lysosomal storage disease caused by a deficiency in the alpha-galactosidase A activity, or alpha-gal-A. It causes a deposition of globo-tryaso- tri-A-o-sulceramide, or GL3, in the cells causing endothelial dysfunction. The onset is in adolescence and leads to periodic acroparesthesias, which are the pains and tingling in the hands and feet, angio-keratomas in a bathing suit pattern, also hypohydrosis, or anhydrosis, or lack of sweating, and characteristic corneal and lenticular opacities, which we'll go into later, in addition to protein area. These patients usually die of end-stage renal disease, average age of 41, unless dialysis is started. If dialysis is begun, then you get cerebral vascular accidents, heart disease, and eventual death, usually in the fifth decade. It's an excellent, possessive disease, so it affects males mostly, but due to lionization, females can also have display a range of severity in the disease. Population-based studies have shown that worldwide it's seen in about one in 80,000 to one in 117,000. However, a recent paper in Italy found that the incidents, just looking at newborn screening of the alpha-gal-A enzyme activity, it was low in one in 3,100, and however, the predominance was toward the non-classic type of fabric disease, and so those would be people who have a cardiac or renal variant, so they lack the classic findings of the acroparasthegias, the young childhood or adolescent onset, angio-keratomas, hypohydrosis, and the corneal and lenticular opacities. It's thought that actually a larger proportion than was originally thought of patients that have end-stage renal disease in their between their 60s and 80s may actually have this non-classic renal or cardiac variant of the fabric disease. The mutation in the GLA gene on the X chromosome, as I mentioned, causes a deficiency in the alpha-gal-A enzyme, leading to the deposition of GL3 within the lysosomes, and you can see in this electron microscopy image, this is endothelial, an endothelial cell, sorry, in glomerular epithelial cell, and all of these, they're called zebra bodies. These are the lysosomes that have been filled with the GL3 material. This is just the pathway that the glycosfingolipid metabolism follows. So if you're missing the alpha-gal-A enzyme here, you can see you develop fabric disease. If it's lower down on the pathway, you can develop Gauchat's disease. The GL3 material deposits largely, well, it deposits in all the cells of the body, but it causes the most dysfunction within endothelial cells. So you have, as I mentioned, kidney problems in the heart. You can get cardiomyopathy in addition to ischemic events, cerebrovascular accidents in the brain, in the peripheral nervous system, you get the acroparasthegias. In the GI tract, you get, due to deposition within the blood vessels and the nerves, bouts of diarrhea and abdominal pain, and in the skin, the angiocaritomas and anhydrosis. So we'll talk about the angiocaritomas a little bit more. So it follows this classic pattern, bathing suit pattern. The name that was given to it is angiocaritoma corporeus diffusum. This isn't used so much by general doctors, but the dermatologists like it, and you can see their small punctate. Sometimes they coalesce into a larger group, like you can see on the hip here. Ocular signs, this is probably why we're here. We're looking for the corneal verticillata, which is an epithelial deposition of the GL3 in a whirl-like pattern. The whirl generally centers just below the axis of vision, and spirals until it's linear as you move outward. This is actually a very common finding. It's seen in between 70 and 90% of patients with febri disease. However, it's not completely specific. The most common medications that are quoted, they also cause this type of corneal verticillata, or amiodarone and chloroquine, but quinocrine, chlorpromazine, endomethacin, chlophazamine, ceramin, naproxen, and tylerone also can produce a similar finding on the corneal surface. Another ocular sign is congenitival vessel abnormalities. You can see the tortuosity of this vessel here. They can also become aneurysmal and fold over themselves, bulging outward. Here you can see the classic lenticular opacities. This cataract on the right side, this is the classic fabri cataract. It's a posterior cataract, stellate or spoke-like in appearance. However, this is only seen in between 10 and 20% of fabri patients. This is much more common. This is an anterior cataract. Both are caused by deposition of the GL3 material. The vessel tortuosity can also be seen on the fundus. It can be seen using an ophthalmoscope, but more dramatically using fluorescent angiography. You can see the tortuosity of the vessels in the superior and inferior arcades. The vessel tortuosity has some prognostic value as well. You can see that patients that had the vessel tortuosity in this study, on this side, this is the fabri outcome scale of the maze symptom severity index. The folks that had vessel tortuosity had more severe presentation of the disease than those that did not have vessel tortuosity and those statistically significant. Even more significant perhaps is that vessel tortuosity is also associated strongly with cardiac size. This was looking at the thickness of the left ventricle as a marker for cardiomyopathy. Most importantly for ophthalmologists is that the ocular presentation is much earlier than the rest of the problems. So if a doctor were to pick up the corneal signs especially which can present as young as three years old, you could get the patient started, intervene and prevent potentially many of the problems that will show up later in life. Interventions that we have now which are relatively new, fabrizyme and replica, that's FDA approved in the US, replica is used in Europe along with fabrizyme. There were several studies on fabrizyme in the past decade since it was released. The first one here by Aang in 2001, this is actually the stage four when they were trying to get the drug approved, stage four trials. They found that when they looked at the microvascular endothelial deposits of GL3, it actually was cleared within six months in 20 of the 29 patients that were in the treatment group. And none of the patients who were in the placebo group. Beck at all in 2004 was able to demonstrate that the renal kidney disease that the patients were suffering from stabilized once they were put on fabrizyme. And then Hughes at all demonstrated that the cardiomyopathy actually reversed and the left ventricular mass actually decreased as measured by MRI. So in summary, fabri disease is an excellent recessive deficiency in the alpha-gal A activity. If you see cornea verticillata and you see angio keratomas in a bathing suit pattern, you can practically make the diagnosis. And finally, early diagnosis and intervention frequently by an ophthalmologist could set a patient on a course with less morbidity and increased quality of life and possibly increased lifespans, though the medications haven't been out long enough to be able to show that yet. Special thanks to Alicia and Canon for helping me out on this. And these are my references. Are there any questions? Yes? Sure. Urinary findings usually show up in the adolescent years as mild protein area and gradually increase heading toward end stage renal disease by the third or fourth decade. In terms of the UA findings, well, I know that the protein area is usually out of proportion to the azotemia, so the patients are relatively compensated until the end, but I couldn't tell you exact figures. There are also, well, I know that they can find the multis cross lipid findings, but that's not specific. I'm not sure if there are specific urinary tests. Generally when they want to do the confirmatory diagnosis, they'll just go straight for the alpha-gal A activity. No visual symptoms at all, so it would take a pretty astute clinician to send them off to the ophthalmologist. Yes? Yes, so you can test the blood. Tears are frequently checked as well. And then also, well, not frequently, but you can also go for a mutation analysis. That's another way to make the diagnosis. All right. Thank you very much.


All right good afternoon separate traders to close out the day and the week not just the month yet though that's gonna be on Monday so here we are this Friday October 28th great to see Chuck still with us here commenting on the QNG why still on fire yeah this thing is really pushing up well and we'll go over this trade in just a moment folks let me just get a quick sound check just to begin make sure all of us here can hear me loud and clear all of us inside the live trading room at least great to see Dan still sticking with us here as well and across the board all of a sudden social media Facebook live and YouTube as well folks just let me know I believe I'm good to go at least inside the cyber group room so great to see all of us there and all right perfect we are good to go on both ends so with that I mean here the market has grinded on up once again today and you know at this point right now let's just do an overall kind of assessment of seeing what the spy has done we're going to focus more on the bottom of this five minute chart but really from the beginning of this week have trended up really well ended up topping off mid Wednesday morning that was and then it dropped off since but you know earlier today ended up making a pretty sharp pop after the market had opened up to you know lead you to say hey if this ends up sticking near the highs after 1030 you know there's still a chance you know hey news comes out whatever can happen where the markets can lead to a slip and break below support but fortunately it's easy for me to say things have held pretty nicely today across the market to the point now where we're at weekly highs so we could close out this week really well I ended up seeing a little resistance on the spy chart just historically from like over 388 right after that I mean you know not to say that there's none but it's it might be an easier pump up up towards 390 even before a pullback but um you know that's at least with what's going on with the spy that could lead us to follow some some sideless stocks here taking us into the close but either way q n g y at least for right now this thing has been a machine so this is this is actually allowed us to play by our rules really well on this trade and what I mean by that is this this stock is still up over 215 220 percent right now just before it blasted over resistance at four I wrote in the chat board I said hey with the stock moving up the way it is like I'd expect big resistance at four at first and even from there we'll dig into the historical charts in a moment so this isn't fully out of the doghouse just yet even from these prices but you know it broke over four pretty quickly I mean like blasted above four at first topped off at like 420 all right well for dan grant gene charles all of a sudden live trading room simple question that you folks always answer for me you know in class but when a stock breaks above a resistance and pops off it runs off it a bit resistance flips into what support right so you know with that this ended up breaking under four and then very quickly broke right back over four right like perfect to a tea chef's kiss type of entry it's everything that you would want to see in this exact type of trade because I'll tell you know with it up as much as it is I mean hey I mean normally the stock isn't up as much like this on a given day let alone week and there's gonna be some sell-off some profit take I'm led to believe you know this is probably some like you know lower float lower volume traded stock that normally makes these poppin pops and drops and we see this all the time of course right so with that the qng y it's already up enough percentage wise when's it gonna really tank so seeing this just holds for here and allowing us the chance for the entry to run up towards 445 near 450 and even now I mean just holding forward here for the meantime but you know just I'll tell you the more it lays over this then I'll tell you it's not gonna be too pretty so you really want to see it explode and run and move off higher from these levels here right now on the ask going to level three at least I don't have my book map open right now my level four but you know at 425 you could at least see from my level three here the matrix a 52,000 share order so you know you know that's big resistance right there and then there's also a 17k here at 420 so that's what's showing on level three up making a push this thing's extremely liquid actually for the like the order book I don't know the the type of volume at the stock trades day to day I mean like just from the end of last week 8.4 million but before that just like a few hundred thousand at least at most so that's terrible the stock hasn't traded any volume prior to like the end of last week and I'm sure it waned off over time afterwards but no trading a lot today so maybe over time the stock of gain or trust is like a day to day sideless type of stock but that takes me to the daily chart so Fausto is calling this out earlier in the morning folks right over four like 402 403 I wrote this in the chat board earlier as I was on a coaching call with one of our students ended up mentioning hey like you know we have some historical levels here right off of like 402 403 right myself and Jim so with that I you know it ended up breaking above it doesn't mean that it's out of the doghouse and it's going to run it needs to do that sooner than later so just be mindful of that and even here I was noticing this right before I jumped on live for all this on social media a little bit of a channel this was in prior right back from the end of September here whatever highs these are 438 440 440 440 so look what happened just a moment ago this is where I say be careful ended up topping off where right at 445 that was from the morning at least actually so it actually held under that price just now that was from the morning the market opened up from its initial run up so you know even furthermore let's see this begin to make its moves sooner than later we'll put this on our least list at least to begin a bit of a tongue twister all right so let's go from top to bottom otherwise right now I got a coaching called one of our students coming up at 3 p.m. eastern but no formal class so you know for any of these other stocks that ended up making a move perhaps we can just like go over them you know at least maybe see what the news is perhaps on a couple of them I'd say actually I looking back on QNG why I'll just mention here no pre-market you always want to look up news when you have the time so pre-market if I'm not trading I'll look up news scan around more right cool so so news on Intel Pinterest earnings and all that these cheapies like the small caps that we traded this morning including QNG why I didn't see any formal news on that stack that's also a slight concern to me you know it's a natural short squeeze for as much as it dropped off the shorts of you know technically have been covering allowing this to pump up alongside the day traders like us that look to buy it but that's a huge gamble though once the volume peaks and dies off so that's where you want to be really careful on a trade like this just like you had from the morning session all right we'll keep it going BHSE spotty not a nothing happening there all right let's see it also you got NUVL is this a buyout check the news at least trying to make a squeeze up right now from seemingly 32 32 20 ish it's just too illiquid either way I mean just ended up gapping up early in pre-market consolidated a bit after the open lower highs lower highs snap your lower low so if this was more liquid I'd consider it but on a day like today markets are at the highs it's not worth it you know there's there's plenty of other trades that look a lot better there's plenty of other trades that look a lot better I'm not going to say that for every single one folks but you know it just goes to show right like even this one from the morning DAIO that was on our pre-market list if not mistaken so you know unfortunately that was a dud rum this one we've followed for a little bit rumble so you know recently ended up getting listed ended up consolidating going into the end of the summer and effectively tanked made a nice dead cat bounce since though what's interesting about this just doing a quick little chart session here this is like too clean for me to not recognize and I'm not going to be perfect with this but just off the majority of the lows that's clean yes the false break in between but that's clean so you know the dream would be to see this squeeze up higher up towards here over time as a target you know on a swing if that's what you're looking for that's just a quick little something to look at I'm sure that you could say the same on the downside off the highs just right there has some good trends use that as a support line but getting back to the intro day here it's at the highs taking us and going into the close exactly what you would want to see right so are you going to put this on our list all right what else we got here maybe we do have a nice afternoon taking us into the close you know for a Friday afternoon for the weekly close much like the weekly open you normally anticipate some you know you know volatility you know some week long trades options trades that you know trickle into the you know equities market here you know come into play so you know in stock like Intel I feel like could be pretty flat going into the close just because of how much liquidity it trades maybe it makes the move back up to 29 so if you're looking for like a small little trade you can do that you know I'll keep this on our side list right now Intel coming off good earnings today today though so at least there's a catalyst behind the potential run but the thing is on this trade and this is where I got you know fooled or misled I mean just it didn't make the volatile type of pop or continued move up at least that I wanted to see it made the continued move up here but it took its sweet time across the morning where you know hey yesterday we looked at Shopify coming off strong earnings that ran really well really fast I thought we were going to see a lot similar out of Intel so I had a nice trade on it from the morning ended up locking in like a good trade initially but ended up failing to get the continued move up later on I was looking for a short down a little bit more and then from that point ended up taking its time and pushed up higher without me so you know from there ended up running up up towards 29 22 it just looks really flat here compared to what it did from from the morning so you know if I'm not a fan of this year and then how long it took from this point I'm not a fan here TAL what happened here TAL ended up making this little pre-market pop from like 415 414 it's like 70,000 share ice 70,000 share iceberg order early in pre-market and I mean effectively continued to push up since I kind of took my eyes off it there afterwards they really didn't look to make a movement first but again you know thankfully if you waited long enough it worked out I guess patience pays off but you know really flat here taking us into the close so not really worth it right now just one from the morning that we had a day like today markets moving up have been following this ETF a lot more semiconductor bullish ETF SOXL really from the last week and a half we've had our eyes on this right you know even on the short side as the markets were dropping off you know from the end of September so you know saying that SOXL should the markets pop this could make a nice little move here just a more volatile sector to work with that would lead me to say hey maybe check out Intel because Intel's you know part of this semiconductor like group with AMD and NVIDIA and Micron I just feel like this will be more volatile it's more leveraged if anything so you know I feel like this can make the bigger percent move from this point Intel had the initial pop off its earnings though so you know if that's up more percentage wise up until this point that's one thing but I feel like Intel is going to be a little bit more flat oh no SOXL is actually up more percentage wise still all right all right let's hop over to the loser side right now see what's on that side of the field I'm not expecting much if everything is up and the markets are at the highs so there's our push up to even like close to 389 on the spy we're getting close to 390 pretty quickly dva 71 dollar stock so I'm not going to be as keen to follow it but just want to give it the look but yeah pretty flat for how expensive it is I'll give the same look to EW is this an ETF or something no this is what is this awards life science corp edwards geez my my eyes are bad I got this bright light right now it's like kind of making the chart hard to read like this the the watermark edwards life science corp that's a tough one to read right there let me turn this thing off it's probably even easier there we go oh that's a lot easier all right now with this dropping down to 70 this is a trade this looks like something that we can get our hands on as a as a short dropping down lower highs down to a major support level at 70 you could just see from you know more so the morning just given how like darker green this is but more from the morning we had a bunch of volume filled at the bid off of 70 but hey if the more this can pull back and break under this hold under this then it's more likely to see continuation from 70 into the close dropping off a lot more just look what happened initially to meta once it broke below 100 yesterday the more times it was stabbing that level it tanked like three and a half points pretty quick it retraced back up as the markets ended up pushing back up itself granted but it's all a matter of seeing a level getting stabbed and poked at over time you you got to expect to see it make a move so you know more expensive but this trade EW definitely a big fan of yours a short let me even just check the weekly monthly chart there's a nice catch I didn't realize this was like a viable trade based off the liquidity I just kind of ignored the stock today just really type spread a thin volume to a degree but that's just normal out of a more expensive trade so I don't mind that as much you got a really big support if you're looking for a true bottom around 66 or 65 like here that's a strong one but pretty far away from that point right now I wouldn't be expecting that at this point here back from well how about this back from two years ago literally two years ago on this week this bottom doubt I got to squint my eyes again here this bottom doubt at 70 92 well it's way below that at this point it's about a dollar off from that point so you know if it if it's just continuing to break new levels here this could be in line for a continued drop off pretty quickly so yeah I like this trade EW just trade small shares but here we go GDS this thing's been taken a huge cheese talk about a potential short squeeze down the line this thing I'm sure at some point don't don't hold your breath and don't hold me to that but the more this drops the more it's going to make a fractional move back up and for us day traders will look to jump all over that but uh that is that is as clean of a trend down a sharp of a trend down you can go from the highs there but that doesn't even match as well it's more like kind of like off this next high from the from the from the initial drop there doing a little charting today having a little fun with you folks right now look at that oh that is clean so the more it accelerates from that trend perhaps it could begin to bounce maybe even if it pulls back as low as like who knows it's like kind of there now even right like right off 960ish 950ish look at that the highs this is a weekly chart back from all the way back from 2017 these highs roughly around they're like 968 949 950 so roughly around that range eh would be interesting but you know that's just based off that one level though so you know we'll we'll follow up with this actually is a potential swing trade going into next week even but I'm not fully sold on it just yet we'll just check in check more in with it next week as a day trade right now it's just not doing enough in terms of the volume traded per minute so uh you know over time day by day we'll check in with this one all right so what else we got here folks I mean not everything moved up I mean China stocks gap down pretty badly overnight xpev neo lee billy pdd jd like a lot of them ended up dropping down early from pre-market so you know I guess they're trying to squeeze back up right now a lot of whole lot to neo or xpev right now lee this looks dead all right move on from this uh chuck saying roblox has a steady push uh movement trend we're jambalaya there nice nice move though you're right and it has a good trend so yeah I mean it's a good sideless stock at that right um you know there's a reason that's down still percentage wise on the day when the markets are up a lot right now so you know it's pushing up pretty well at this point but there's probably a lot that looks like this here so if you do well on a roblox day by day then I'm sure that you'll be more inclined to follow it it's a good one normally a al airlines are doing jack right now at least nah I shouldn't say that look at jets this is actually trending up well at the market I don't know why americans so flat you check in like a ual a jet blue maybe masses flat but at the highs cruise line maybe NC like nclh like nclh looks good right if you do well on an nclh day to day then you're more inclined to follow it gm gm if anything I'd be more inclined to watch coming off good earnings from earlier this week and you know we were following it from the end of I think it was wednesday of this week it didn't make the biggest move at the time because I believe the markets were just kind of moving up slower but now here we are going into the weekly close this I feel if anything could be a better one to watch I wouldn't mind giving GM the look only because of the news that was added on top of it similar trends as the rest so you know but otherwise the earnings that came out this could get that this can get a nice little rub going into the close all right let me just check social media facebook live youtube uh I don't see anything right now I think we may have caught them all folks I mean we can go through some more sideless stocks here in a moment but got a couple that are trending up well you know so if you want to follow those just as long as they're trading good volume per minute at least comparative to the order books then they're going to be a good trade like roblox nclh didn't look bad I don't really see much else otherwise from from benzinga pro I'm doing more of like a detailed look here we got one just see what the chart looks like at least what was it the bhse they say it's creeping up right now I guess it is the last couple minutes but it's too illiquid again all right I think that's going to wrap things up for us here folks for the day for the week all right so for all of us on social media facebook live youtube hey enjoy the weekend if you're interested in joining our live trading room just go right down to the link on the yellow banner below just a sign up for a small trial otherwise though like I said enjoy the weekend any questions that you have just feel more than free to send over through email you know just before joining our trading room if you have any questions at least prior I always like to post my email here at the end josh at c2trading.com otherwise though for Leda and Grant Charles and Chuck and all this year inside the live trading room Charles had a nice day that you messaged me had a really nice trade on the Q and G why so give a shout out to him and give a shout out to any one of us at least that ended up doing well from earlier today listen you don't need to trade at this point go into the close but if you're still sticking around the weekly close could be pretty interesting so for the stocks that we're going to start with I'll definitely be following this here with one of my students on a coaching call coming up so I'll chat I'll chat with you folks coming up pretty shortly take care


Welcome to the talk news from the Corbett land at this year's all system go first question who of you Uses Corbett already Okay, that's I think we're three hands. So none not for so it could be more people so those of you who have been in the talk before that was like heaven because the Speaker said on this STM device if you set a pin Reset a jumper then the boot lock is disabled and all your code is executed and you have the full control of the device and This proprietary firmware and today's devices. This is very hard for compute and consumer devices and Yeah, that's why I think Corbett is quite important Just a few words to myself Yeah, I studied math here in Berlin and I like free software and I'm active in Corbett since 2005 but Yeah, I'm mainly a user but also Support the community a little bit All right. So what happened a Long time ago in July this year The commit which you see there was tagged as release photo time and Yeah, it was actually like two months late. I'd say the Cobb project tries to release Do a do a release every six months and But it's just like a checkpoint in the comet history it doesn't give Yeah, any guarantees. Let's say it's of course there are Some things are tested beforehand, but it's yeah, just the comet which is named with a number some stats So they're actually quite a lot of authors a comet authors like almost 200 Yeah, there were a lot of changes and Yeah, also quite a lot of new contributors 11,000 lines of course codes were added and 5,000 lines of comments Because of the time I just will be touching some small topics and the first one is the sea environment boot block there was an old way to boot or to build a core boot for devices and that was related to how The older processors were laid out that there were not a lot of the second level cash for example and our level one cash and that GCC also was not able to build the boot block and That's why like in the early 2000 Eric Biedermann. He wrote a separate compiler for core boot which built the boot block in the beginning So and then people said okay with new processors and GCC evolved We can actually we actually want to use GCC because wrong and CC had several Disadvantages and Some constructs were not supported and yeah GCC is much more well tested of course and so Alexander Kanyuk he started to To change the environment by allowing the boot block to be To to run a sea environment when and the boot where the boot block gets built with The rest was GCC. So that's a modern way to boot and so it's a big task to Convert the current boards maybe to this new method and for example for arm which came to Corbett much later as a support that was already possible. So that's mainly a big task for x86 so Yeah, just it won't be as technical as in the talk before but and that you just see some That you know where to look and if you're interested. So there's this Yeah, Wallace assembler Thing and code which sets up The device in the beginning so it can run in the end the Yeah The the boot block so it jumps to boot block pre see entry after it goes Yeah, after it sets up the processor this way and these include files and for example and For QEMU where it's not a hard problem to set up rum It then calls boot block see entry pissed So several as I said several boards were converted and these were mainly internships and Yeah, that's so much and that's a big task now because I will come to it later. It's a hard requirement for the future Yeah, regarding what there were a lot of new boards also added Google does a lot of Chromebook Developments and releases new versions for this of course, but There's also now a quite current server boards Supported I think This is Hasmo so super micro X10 SLM plus F and Also because it's kind of similar after this Oh, sorry after the 410 release the super micro X 11 was Was Release which is a carbonic server board. So of course it's now again a hard Decision because AMD released epics and so on. So nobody wants until anymore, but you don't get called with this Epic so as always, it's a complicated word world Yeah for system on chips AMD Picasso Was added which is going to be used in Chromebooks and also an arm Qualcomm processor and I just wanted to go into AMD a little bit As with the inter management engine, they also have a platform security processor, which is an auxiliary processor I think it's an arm ship and Yeah, it's Actually quite powerful and before the actual Processor is taken out of reset It does a lot of things and it's I think it's been there for like seven or eight years But now it also happens that for future AMD systems this This platform security processor will for example also initialize and the memory. Yeah, which is kind of a new thing It has a little bit to do with how AMD probably Positions itself in the future also with arm devices and so on so that they Takes the devices more part, but that also is quite new. So That's a run initialization is not run on the main processor. So that's kind of new and that also Yeah, give some The corporate project now also has to think about how to adapt to this because yeah You don't run you don't start from flesh, but you start from DRM for example so some things components have to be adapted and Yeah, and that's also quite of hard. I mean I come to this in the blob section later, but Rum initialization is quite complex. So it's on the one hand Only the vendor more or less knows how to do it But on the other hand also to fix box and so on and in the spirit of free software actually the corporate project actually wants to have a Also the code for how to initialize the run. So Yeah, it's and it's a new problem and because Now we more or less would also need to somehow write the firmware for the PSP, but of course it's signed and so on Yeah, so That's for that. We will see how it works But I come to this later There were also some devices removed because Certain requirements which we set for boards or standards were not Met and that's a geo LX. I think it's now 15 years old or so. It wasn't old AMD processor Which actually had a its own kind architecture, but I think it could emulate x86 So it was quite interested interesting and it was also supported by coboot and Quite popular and routers or embedded boards One example is the PC engines Alex boards, which were used for routers for example This year we had three Google summer of code projects. So thank you Google for that So a lot of co verity. So coboot is integrated in co verity and the static analyzer from some US University or so it's our company and they Yeah, so one project tried to fix all these and co verity box then Yeah, the QEM you are 64 support and port To to create that's one was one project and the G draw is a program from the NSA. I think which they Which is kind of like Nah, either pro certain disassembler Project and One student worked on adding support First for coboot images, of course, but it's on the one hand not so interesting because we have a lot of source for that but Also to add a little bit support that you can load you if I images I think and then be able more or less to reverse Engineers So the next release for 11 is planned for October, but as I said the only reason Important stuff is more or less. It's just a tag and afterwards a certain criteria or dedication which were Announced at least six months earlier are applied So these are the new criterias as I said all boards have to support the environment boot block and Yeah the car global migration and so car Is cash as rum and the variable which are stored in there needs to be moved to the next stages and So we can for example use timestamps which you measure in the ROM stage can also be Moved or seen in in the ROM stage and later on you can read them out Yeah, so And maybe I forgot to say for example for C environment boot block is of course gives gives a little bit Gives a lot of advantages for example all this stuff which Google does with verified boot They have their own verified boot implementation V boot to and so they measure certain They make hash thumbs of certain parts and to verify that These the stuff has hasn't been altered and this is for example, just possible for see environment boot block And so all ports which support this would automatically profit from the other infrastructure So that's yeah quite nice But the downside is for example the current server boards, which is also already seven Eight years old, but which is the most powerful x86 boards and currently available in Corbett without any blobs Besides microcode that's the aces KGP D 16 and This in the current situation will be dropped Yeah Yeah, so also what happened there is now more less in established conference for firmware development It's the open-source firmware conference and it took place in This year in California at the Google and Facebook campus and yeah San Francisco and San Jose so Sunny valley, I think or Sunny Vale and Last year it happened in Bonn, so it was in Europe and then hope next year it will be again in in Europe and Yeah, it's quite established now because For the Deppin visa visa Zau Lin his nickname from nine elements. He is quite Communicative and motivated and he gets a lot of projects together and so that's quite cool to have Also like officer projects come together and to talk about Roadmaps and goals and for example core boot Linux boot tie on a core open BMC U boot PT boot, which is a boot program for power PCs and For example the firmware update project was also there which is Richard Hughes and which On current laptops or devices. Let's you update your ufi firmware with the UEFI capsule technique Just from the Linux user space, which is a cool thing they were all there and they cooperate now and The talks were recorded so but not published yet, so I'm looking forward to them because I I wasn't able to go to the yes Yeah on the meeting this it was announced that for this server board if people are interested to keep support that the community can Raise funds and the 3M bit company which is in Poland Would be willing to maintain this port So Some ongoing work Which is happening There's a new media tech chip which is also something to look for because they get more powerful and get even more viable alternatives for x86 Which is always good to have then some Person started to work on a core boot port for power PC 64 Which you might have heard which currently uses host boot she boot and petite boot and These are currently used for example Of course on servers, but they are also now workstation boards from rector engineering The tailors and blackbird you might have heard of it. So it's a yeah desktop workstation board Which you can get and Currently on power also you heard that the isa is now put under a free license and the power foundation Open power foundation is now part of the Linux foundation So it's actually quite open now and also good alternative and Hopefully it would put some pressure on the x86 people Yeah risk 5 is still also Supported some people work on this so they are quite disappointed that there also is now a system management mode and risk 5 and Yeah, the integration of the AMD PSP processor is quite a challenge also, yeah with binary blobs Let's say I come to it later. So The result of the open firmware conference is that now people also work on the fw and firmware update utility integration This is not directly related to core boot, but to firmware in general kx. Like is now able to boot Microsoft windows There's a gee good sum of code project was there, which is very nice It is clearly nox and they work on booting quickly They got a colonel now and on the Linux plumber's conference. They talked about 300 milliseconds corner execution time Which is nice to have of course They also need a fast firmware because even if your Linux system your Linux system boots in One second and your firmware like on my Dell boots in 10 seconds, then that's Yeah, not good So I hope that they are Will get a lot of stuff upstream and all people will profit from it and there's also now a firmware project Which is called all boot which is and firmware implementation and rust and they Have a goal that they don't allow any binary blobs so to the end I want to talk about some ongoing issues like Blobs, so it causes a lot of hassle and actually work which actually would be better to put into working world working code instead of Thinking about glue codes or wonder why this blob doesn't do as what do you expect? And so there's a lot of time kind of wasted. I think a Lot of stuff gets a little bit better because now the Binary switch are published are better documented and The ABI is not broken that often and so on But it also causes some license and licensing issues there Corbett is TPL. So if the platform Initialization code binary called spec into Corbett. Is it a violation? Is it not so? current state is it's not but It's issues. You actually don't want to deal with right so We will see how this will develop Yeah, there's For example early on AMD and they contributed documentation for epic and so on the Beers kernel developer guides. They have not been published to my knowledge or as are not as complete So you cannot actually implement on a free firmware Changes of course are hard to review if you don't have the documentation and you cannot write code Yeah, and then of course, there's yeah, normal community issues that are in all other projects also Also the problems which you have in the next kernel like a lot of developers are not employed in companies and work on new products and they Often cannot share that they work on the new products and because they of NDA they cannot release it and So they implement something and then when they are allowed to push it upstream the community has a lot of Sometimes a lot of complaints and want to something to be rewritten so in a lot of often We would like to have these company developers engage with the public community More often and write to the mailing list for example to discuss certain architectural decisions Yeah, but that's also sometimes the same with Linux drivers So, yeah, I'm at the end just as a quick note because today was a climate strike and so on and also Leonard's talk with The home directory and the problems with suspend to rum. I advocate again I don't like suspend to rum if firmware would be possible if your system would cold boot in like one second Nobody would need to suspend to rum. Yeah, and you would find other solutions to preserve the state You wouldn't have to worry about what is in the in the rum and you would use the normal mechanisms You would reduce complexity. Yeah, and they call boot is always still needed like on this laptop With the P store mechanism where you can Store crash dumps and you if I variables for example if I just found out that it was enabled and then it was All these variables was written that I was wondering why my system now the firmware took 25 seconds instead of 10 seconds to boot And it was because all these variables were there and them is a buck in the del firmware that it reads all these variables Without any need. Okay, so that's in the end Thank you for your attention and if you have any questions go ahead You mentioned the boot on arm systems a bit. Can you expand a little bit on what sort of devices you've been targeting? Has it been single board computers has been servers? There's really nothing in the middle. Um, I think both so mainly the Chromebooks Which are like laptop devices so embedded stuff, but I think there was this KVM Um, I think 2 or X1, I think too too, okay But there were some problems with KVM because of the arm trusted firmware Releases and they didn't maintain it. So I think they removed the board now But there was support and I think Facebook even sponsored the nine elements company to do the support But I you can come afterwards. I I can look it up. Yeah Do you know why support for the Alex board was removed? Yeah, because nobody worked on I need to look up which special requirement was there But it was I think Also had to do with car migration. So you actually couldn't see the timestamps from the boot block and I have to look it up what requirement it was but Yeah, nobody maintained it But that's of course also a valid question I mean the firmware still worked right and you can still check it out and build it But of course, you don't have all the new features, but it's at certain point I think it's a valid question if there are no maintainers If you can remove these boards and you can of course still boot the old firmware, right? But sorry, I don't know the specific reason I can look up the comment and tell you Thank you Paul. Yeah, thank you


Meantime, the Department of Creative Industries presented 47,000 face shields to the Department of Education and the Ministry of Equity on Thursday 29 April. The personal protective equipment forms part of a donation made by the charity group in Canada until we meet again ACN, a caring network. Through Goodwill Ambassador, His Excellency Peter Kenny Chitoli, Chief Education Officer Dr. Fiona Phillip Meyer accepted a share of 29,000 face shields to be distributed to all schools on the island. We are privileged to receive the largest number, but not that it will support and go to every single child on island. We looked at our early childhood sector, at our special education centres, at our upturned girls, our boys training centre, our primary and secondary schools. And through those calculations, we are very, very happy to have been told that we received one per child. That's what's significant for us. Deputy Director in the Ministry of Equity, Social Justice, Local Government and Empowerment, Uralis De Lea, accepted the 13,000 face shields to go towards constituency councils for the vulnerable in the communities. This donation will go a long way in assisting our ministry in providing equipment, safety equipment to the vulnerable persons in our society.  And face shields were not included in the hygiene packages. And so, this very, we are elated for this generous donation that will complement the items that were in the hygiene packages. De Lea also accepted 5,000 on behalf of the Ministry of Youth Development and Sports for youth in the various communities. Minister responsible for culture and creative industries, Senator Honourable Fortuna Bell Rose, expressed thanks to the Goodwill Ambassadors, including His Excellency Chitoli, for their continued efforts to uplift St Lucia, particularly during the pandemic. We want to say, of course, on behalf of the Government of St Lucia, we want to say thank you to H.E., High Commissioner, Ambassador Ken Chitoli, for this donation of 47,000 face shields. As you know, the COVID virus is still very prevalent in St Lucia. And of course, we've been working feverishly to ensure that our citizens understand and appreciate the value of ensuring that they are protected against the virus. And I'm sure our students, our young people, our communities would all be happy to receive that wonderful gift from Ambassador Chitoli.


And the purpose of this talk will be to give an introduction to my area of research, and to talk a little bit about the simple problems of this. So the purpose of this area is to determine properties of objects through non-invasive methods. So you're familiar with X-rays or MRIs, these are the kind of things that I would like to talk about. So let me introduce first what is not an inverse problem. Take someone you like, that's my brother. He's not the problem. And since you are supposed to know him well, then he should be familiar with his personality and the problem would be, given the personality, to determine the reactions to stimuli. So he would be annoyed to that pair of brothers in there, comparison recreation. I would expect him to laugh at said Robin movies or to be annoyed or confused by Trump's tweets like that, or his presentation yesterday. So this would be what is not an inverse problem. Now an inverse problem would be the opposite, would be to determine their personality based on their reactions to a list of things. So this puts us in a position to make some questions that could be of interest also to the mathematical case. So the first question that we could possibly ask is the question of uniqueness. So can we have a list of reactions to stimuli that can correspond to do different people? So this is the same as saying if every list corresponds to exactly one possible person. If we get to know this, then we have some hope to ask for the reconstruction problem, which is can we cook up a recipe to produce the personality based on the list of the reactions? OK, so other kind of questions that we can ask about this is which list of these makes sense? I mean, can we find out if a list is what's made by a troll or is it like a valid list or also, I mean, if we know that two lists are similar, for example, they differ only on how people react to Shrek. Then can we say something about their personalities? Do they correspond to similar personalities? And also, for example, we can ask also what can we say when we only have access to some partial information, so to partial data? So suppose we only know the reactions to movies or to books or stuff like that, and this puts us. So all of this was to mention that this is related to the calderon problem. So this question dates back when calderon has an engineer in back in Argentina. And the question is following. So when we have a potato, we have a happy potato. We put some boat touch on the boundary. And then this boat touch induces a boat touch in the inside. And that makes a current flow to the outside of the potato. And so we are only measuring things on the boundary of the potato. And the question is, can we determine the conductivity to the inside? And this has applications to American imaging or geophysics that have been quite successful. Calderon has interested in oil perception when he was an engineer. Other kind of inverse problems are X-rays or MRIs. And I'm going to explain a little bit more about X-rays in a second. So for X-rays, what we have is an object. And we throw some rays and try to capture the information over these lines. And then the deputation, we move the inclinations. And when people like to ask, can we say something about this shape? And this is like the problem that dates back to the 1920s, I think. And this turned out to be very useful in the past century. And if this doesn't make too much sense, for example, think of having a beautiful cake and you're able to slide this cake with a knife.  And then the question will be, are you determining the shape of your cake? Thank you very much. That's a great topic.
