Proudly we hail! From New York City where the American stage begins, here is another program with a cast of outstanding players. Public service time has been made available by this station for your army and your Air Force to bring you this story as Proudly we hail Crawford Williamson Long, the first doctor in America to use ether in a surgical operation. Our story is entitled country doctor and concerns a young man, a very very young man at the time, who made a startling discovery that revolutionized medical practice in every part of the civilized world. We'll bring you his dramatic story from the rocky cliffs of Korea to the pine covered hills of Georgia in just a minute. Right now an announcement. Registered nurses, here's a chance to be of service to your country during one of the most critical periods in America's history. As you know, our army has expanded rapidly due to the tense international situation. And urgently needs more nurses to help safeguard the health of our soldiers. You'll be a commissioned officer with good pay and liberal allowances and you'll have priceless opportunities for furthering your professional career. You'll have the benefit of working with some of the finest medical equipment in the world and the chance of learning the newest techniques in the medical profession. Get all the facts today. Write or wire the Surgeon General, United States Army, Washington 25 DC. Do it now. And now your army and your Air Force present the proudly we hail production country doctor. In Yongdong Po and the outskirts of Seoul Korea, there's an evacuation hospital. Two long lines of canvas army cut stretch the length of a warm oversized room. If there's any suffering, it isn't apparent. The soldiers know that they're destined south to Busan, to Japan or even stateside. They know that they've been given the best of care that medical science allows. A few steps down the hall from the ward is an immaculate operating room. A surgeon enters and looks at the unconscious figure lying on the table. Now what is it this time Harry? Compound fracture of left leg with loss of tissue. It was given a half-grain dose of morphine, a pint of blood at the Mobile Hospital unit up front. We're all set to go as soon as you wash out. Okay. Any sign of his regaining consciousness? I just gave him a shot of sodium pentothal hill. Slept through this like a baby. Oh, good old Anastasia. I wonder why the Lord didn't give us the power to put people to sleep before he did. I guess the stuff was always there, but we never found it. Maybe so.  No. Where? Down south. A father used to be a traveling salesman working out of Athens, Georgia. One day it took me along with him. Our first stop was a little country store on Jefferson, a few miles north west of Athens. There was an old carter inside the store. He said, take a liking to me. I could hear him now. Pull up that keg and ails there, my friend. Sit down. Rest your hands and feet. My name's Ed Crimmins. I reckon I've been living in northeast Georgia, bowels, longs, anybody around. Ninety-four next birthday. Yes, sir. Seven years old when the war between the states ended. Mm-hmm. You ever hear Teller Crawford Long, the fellow who used to say? A lot of folks say that pain, but why let it conquer us when we can conquer it? We have the weapon now to triumph over pain. Yeah, he was a smart one, all right, that Crawford Long. I was round when he was still going strong. Mm-hmm. He used to wave at me from his horse and bug in corner by my name. Of course, I was pretty young, even when he died. But I used to hear people tell us how he'd graduated from the University of Georgia, that is. Went up north to medical school and was going great guns as a surgeon in New York by the time he was 23. But it didn't stay long. You know, he came back to Georgia in the spring of 1841 when he was only 25. He used to run a stagecoach from Columbia, South Carolina to Athens in those days. All was a right, smart crowd of people needed to. Hey, here it comes. Here it comes now. She's ahead of time. Yeah, but look who's driving. See, Quaid. No wonder.  Glad to see you too, Crawford. How long have we since circumstances with the fight? Ah, so do I. What happens in the best of families? Those three valises of mine, boy, bring them over here. Hey, you get a point. Hey, by the way, Crawford, you know Caroline Swain here, don't you? Please meet you, Miss Swain. Pleased to meet you. Well, you used to stand in line to dance with her when we was in college. Stand in line to... What? Caroline Swain, of course. I'm sorry. That's all right, Crawford. How are you? Well, five years can do things to some people. Folks in New York who raven over Fannie Campbell should get a look at you. Oh, no. Hey, Crawford, I didn't want to write you that letter. But, you know, I've taken over a lot of father's law practice. And when I looked over your daddy's accounts, I just didn't know anything else to do. So my family's in a pretty bad way. Yeah, pretty bad. I didn't know if you could get away. Why shouldn't I be able to get away? Well, one of the most promising young surgeons in New York. That's what we've been hearing. Shucks.  What'd you do? Bring everything you own? Practically. But you won't have to stand along in a month or so to get everything straightened out of you. You know, Jean, I was looking out of the stagecoach windows as we were coming from Anderson. The streams, deep blue hills in the distance, the big white clouds up above that never seem to move, the smell of southern pine. And red clay and sagging fences. It's still beautiful. I don't see why people break their necks to get to New York. I'll take this. What? You don't mean you're staying, Crawford? That's right, Caroline. What about your patients up north? Oh, they'll get by. There are hundreds of doctors in New York to take care of my list of embolies. Down here, it's different. There aren't enough doctors to go around. But your future, Crawford? My future's in the hills of Georgia. I made up my mind before I even left. This is home. And the more I see of it after five years, the more I like it. I'm staying here. Yep, that's how they said it was. That's how come Crawford Long hung out his shingle in Jefferson. He had just a few miles away from Athens. And like he said, he didn't like the patients. No, sir, some paid, but more of them couldn't afford to. That didn't make no difference to the duck. Every day you could see him riding his horse over the red clay hills going to somebody's help. Well, that same fall they had a fair somewhere around these parts. I guess most everybody went to it except the duck, and he was too busy. Anyway, Yankee come along and set up a great big tent right smack in the middle of the midway. Seems he had a fella hooping and hollering out thunder. Ladies and gentlemen, are you downcast? Are you sad? Well, get ready to wipe those tears out of your eyes, my friends, because in just five minutes from now, that sadness is going to turn to gladness. In just five minutes from now, you're going to witness one of the most phenomenal demonstrations of the 19th century. Yep, you guessed it. We have it right here. Laughing gas, the wonder of the age, the gas that that great English poet Robert Southy calls the atmosphere of the highest heaven. In just five minutes from now, we're going to administer 20 gallons. Count on it. Five, 10, 15, 20 full gallons of this precious vapor to the first 10 volunteers to come on stage and experience the most delightful sensations they've ever known.  All for the small price, 25-cent submission charge. Step right up, ladies and gentlemen. On stage or in the audience, you can't lose. It's scientific, it's educational, it's side-splitting with no danger to anybody. Now, don't push, don't shove. Just a quarter-part of a dollar to witness the wonder of the age. Hooray! Hooray!  It was the dog on the side I ever did, so yeah, many cogs sang Yankee Doodle and sounded like a scree-tow. And Grandpa Lamar kept throwing his arms around it and trying to kiss her.  I know, nitrous oxide. Yeah, what? Nitrous oxide's a chemical compound. Does anybody want any more tea or cake? Oh, not I think. Uh, take these plates out, Liza. Yes, sir. The man who gave the lecture said it was a brand-new discovery. The wonder of the age. Don't believe everything you hear, Caroline. It's been around for years. But what's it used for, Crawford? Outside 10 shows. Well, I tell you, Gene, it's a favorite indoor pastime in every medical school in the country, sniffing nitrous oxide. Sir Humphrey Davion England tried it on himself any number of times. All he discovered was that he had tremendous ideas, made wonderful discoveries while he was under its influence. When it wore off, it couldn't remember what they were. Well, sir, I wish my wife let me volunteer last night. Me too. I'd take a chance on anything. You got any of the stuff, Crawford? Not a bit, Jeff. I'm not running a tent show. That's too bad. You'd probably take in more money. And you'd most likely make an exhibition of yourself, just like those folks last night. Well, at least we'd keep it to ourselves and set it running around in public like those folks last night. Wait a minute. Wait a minute. I'll tell you what I do have. Sulfuric ether. Liza. Yes, sir. Fetch me the brown bottle that's sitting on my desk in the other room. You know the one that came from Philadelphia today? Yes, sir. And what's Sulfuric ether, Crawford? Oh, it's used for a lot of things, Gene. But I remember one afternoon in the University of Pennsylvania, the student working beside me in the laboratory dropped a beaker of it on the floor. It broke and spilled all over the place. By the time we got the mess cleaned up, we were both dizzy. Is this it, sir? Thanks, Elijah. Well, are you gentlemen still interested? I'm game. Me too. Gene? Caroline? No, sir. And none for me, Crawford. I reckon these napkins will fill the bill. Very simple. Just unscrew the top. Pour a little of the precious liquid on one napkin. Like this. Here you are, Jack. And a little on the other napkin. Ew, sure smells awful. I can smell it clear over here. Here you are, Albert. And you needn't worry about the pungent odor. You'll get used to it very, very quickly, I assure you. Won't notice a thing. Maybe you better sit down. No, I'm all right. So am I.  That's it. Now breathe easily, deeply. Inhale. Exhale. Inhale. Exhale. Inhale. Exhale. Inhale. Exhale. Look out, Jim! Is he gonna be all right, Crawford? I hope so, Gene. There's lacerations from the broken glass. No deep cuts. But he should have shown some reaction when I dusted on that alum. Well, he didn't. Oh, not so much as a twitch. Crawford, I think Albert's coming, too.  Yeah. I'll see what's doing with Albert. He was moving a minute ago, Crawford. Yeah, what's doing? Come on, Albert.  Wake up. Come on. What? Oh, Crawford Long. What you doing here? Well, it happens to be my office. You've been asleep for the past 15 minutes. Oh. How do you feel? Kind of sick. You don't hurt? Well, uh-uh. I just feel kind of sick. No, no, not bad. You just kind of... Well, you should hurt. Take a look at those legs of yours. Hey, they're all bruised. How'd that happen? You did it yourself, Albert. You tripped over that chest of drawers over there. Crawford, Jeff's coming around. All right, Jeff. Everything is all right. Let's swing around here.  Hey, what happened? You've been having a little snooze. What's this white powder stuff on my arm?  That's alum. You fell into that long floor mirror and knocked it over. The floor mirror? Oh, God, I sure did, didn't I? I'm sorry, Crawford. I'll pay you for it. I'll get you a new one. I'm not interested in mirrors right now. All I want to know is whether you are in pain or not. Pain? No, why? You sure? You're positive? Sure, I'm sure. No pain. Deep sleep. What's the matter, Crawford? Is anything wrong? Well, Crawford, tell us what's wrong. Wrong? There's nothing wrong, Caroline. Far from it. The matter of fact, we may have something here. You are listening to the proudly-behaved production Country Doctor. Our story will continue in just a moment after this important message. Our army has expanded tremendously to meet the challenge of the forces of aggression, which are threatening the peace of the world. And there is an urgent need for professional women to fill the ranks within the women's medical specialist corps. The occupational and physical therapist and the dieticians who comprise the corps have never had a greater opportunity to serve where they are needed most. Right now, there are only a few hundred of these highly trained specialists serving throughout the army and the Air Force, despite the fact that the need for their services has never been more acute. To the women of this profession, your army and Air Force offers not only the opportunity to fulfill a patriotic duty, but a commission as an officer in the army or the Air Force of the United States. And with that commission goes the pay, the privileges, the security, and the opportunities for continued study that is available to every officer. The opportunity for a lifetime career is great, but the need is greater. So, if you are a qualified occupational or physical therapist or a dietician, here is your chance to serve your country in an hour of great need. Right or wire, the Surgeon General United States Army or the Surgeon General United States Air Force, Washington 25 D.C. Remember, you are needed now. You are listening to Proudly We Hail and the story of Dr. Crawford-Williamson Long of Georgia. We return you now to the general store in the village of Jefferson for the second act of Country Doctor. Back against that sack of beans, my friends, if we're to make you any more comfortable. See that big mulberry tree short piece down the road and the building across from it? That was Crawford-Long's office. It's a museum today. And over on this side, you can't see it from inside here, is Jim Venable's old place. He was about Doc's age, too. Well, sir, one afternoon in March 1852, the Docs started owing to Athens to see his lawyer friend Gene Hightower. He had a brand new buggy and another horse by that time. Elijah, his house boy, was driving, but they'd no sooner swung round in front of Venable's than Doc saw the very man he was looking for. Gene, hold up a minute, Elijah. Whoa, boy, whoa, whoa. Gene! You wait here, Elijah. I'll be right back. Yes, sir. Gene! Oh, howdy, Crawford. I was on my way into town to see you. Well, I was just going across the road to see you. Howdy, Jim. Howdy, Crawford. Well, what brings you out to Jefferson this time of day, anyway? I had some legal matters to take up with Jim here. Oh, good. You can kill two of your clients with one storm. Put up the horse and buggy, Elijah. Yes, sir. The only trouble is that Jim doesn't seem very legally disposed today. Don't feel good. What's the matter with you? I don't know. I just don't feel good. Maybe it sees two big lumps on the back of my neck. They don't hurt you, do they, Jim? No. They shouldn't. But they don't look good, Doc.  Well, it's your own fault, Jim. I've told you time and time again. I'd be more than happy to cut them out, but every time you get to the point... All right, Doc. Cut them out. Let's get the job over and done with it. When? Right now. It's a rather short notice. If Gene has to get back into town... Oh, don't y'all mind me. I have all the time in the world. You'll do it then, Crawford, right away? All right. Lock up your place. Why should I lock it up?  I'll try not to, but it might hurt a little. Well, I don't care. You've got the usual shot of whiskey in your office, I reckon. All right, George, I haven't at that. No? Glad you mentioned it. I used the last drop in an operation yesterday. Well, it won't hurt too much, will it, Crawford? You don't have to do the whole job today. Maybe just a part of it. Maybe old man Pearson has some tucked away somewhere he usually has. Maybe he'll lend us a bottle. Hmm. That's an idea. Well, come on. Let's go see old man Pearson. Let's try him out. There's nothing to lose. No, wait a minute, Jim. I have a better idea. No, Crawford, you're not going to give him that. Yes, Gene, that's exactly what I'm going to do. Since you have all the time in the world, you can help. I need it. Come on, let's go. Don't you want me to lie down on the table or something, Crawford? No, just sitting in a chair by the window here, Jim. I guess we're about ready to start. Hand me that towel beside you, Gene. You want it for the stuff? Mm-hmm. As soon as I get the top off of this bottle, there we are. What's that funny smell? Ether. Oh, what's Ether? Oh, some stuff that smells funny. You won't smell it very long.  It's my neck, not my nose. Yeah, I know, I know. All I want you to do is breathe in slowly and deeply. Will you do that for me? Well, I'll try. All right. Now... Wait a minute, Jim. Take it easy, Jim. Don't squirm. I'm not hurting you. All right. Hold his shoulders, Gene. All right. Now, keep breathing easily, Jim. That's it. How do you feel now? I'm dizzy. Dizzy. Dizzy. Floating away. Floating. Floating. Floating. All right, Gene, one more piece of that gauze here. Thank you. And that's that. Jim ought to be coming out of it any moment now. The only thing I ever saw. They teach you this in school, Crawford? School hasn't even thought of this, not yet. And I'm not going to tell them about it until I'm sure I'm on the right track. Well, let's see how our patient's doing. Come on, Jim. Let's wake up. It's all over. Wake up. Wake up. Let me alone.  Crawford, Jim. Crawford long. Yeah. I must have fainted you. No, you didn't faint. You were going to fix up my neck. That's right. Well, why don't you go ahead and do it? Get over with it. It's done. It's over, Finny. You can forget your embarrassment from here on out. Well, I don't understand, Crawford. The last thing I remember, I sat down here in the chair and you put a cloth over my face. Now you say... You didn't feel anything, did you? No. How do you feel now? I don't know. Maybe my arm feels a little numb. You'll get over that in the next few minutes. Then I can go back to work. If you don't, you'd better lock up that place of yours. You mean that's all? All except the bell. Two dollars. I'll send it to you on the first of the month. Well, what do you know? I don't know just what we do know, Gene. I'm going to try to find out. But I know one thing. We do have something here. Well, sir, short time after, Crawford long up and mad with Caroline Swain, where everybody expected the wood. The up and coming young surgeon, and she, the niece of the governor of North Carolina. Boy, howdy. They say that wasn't sure why something. But it didn't slow down the dark. No, sir, he kept right on plugging along. Yeah, shouldn't have let this toe get infected, son. When you did, you should have come to see me right away quick.  I want you to keep breathing slow and deep. Easy, easy. Breathe in, breathe out, breathe in. Then there was Pete Vincent, and he had something wrong with his head. The doc operated, and when he come to, he'd turn here one day, sir.  You're not after suffering all these years. I don't believe it. I didn't feel a thing. It's a miracle. That's what it is, a miracle. Old Doc Long stayed the job he cut out himself until the very day he died. Yeah, you could tell his horse and buggy my love. Or if you couldn't tell the horse and buggy, you could tell who it was with the chin whiskers waving in the breeze. I used to stand by the side of the road and wait from the pass. I'd wave to him. Howdy, Doc Long. I did win. You behaving yourself? And then I'd watch the dusty buggy go up the red play road through the cotton fields and all the hills going to help somebody else. And that's the way I heard it when I was a kid, Harry. Doc Long never tried to take credit for what he did, but he certainly blazed a trail. I sure saved this soldier plenty of pain, Doc. Yes. Medicine's come a long way since they used to give patients a slug of whiskey to work. Sulphur drugs, penicillin, all different kinds of anesthetics, depending upon what's wrong with you. Not to mention helicopters to fly you back from Sniper Ridge. Crook and I could get you to the hospital down the street back home. Better than that. Why not climb into one of the mobile hospital units and bring the hospital to the patient? Maybe someday we'll be sending death on that holiday. Hey, a boy's coming out of it, Doc. Good. It's about that. Everything's okay, Corporal. Oh, I got clobbered. How bad am I hit? Oh, not bad. Just a fracture. Oh. I don't remember a thing after they carried me back to the mobile unit. No. Thanks to Doc Long and the men who followed him. Well, I don't think I know that. I don't think he was in your outfit, but you can thank him just the same. Just put on a splint, Harry. Light traction for the time being. Fly him back to Tokyo. Okay, Doc? And don't worry, Corporal. He'll soon be as good as new. Registered or graduate nurses. Answer your country's call for service in the Army Nurse Corps. The need is great, and the need is urgent. There just aren't enough nurses to handle the nursing requirements of our greatly expanding Army. And you, as a nurse, can appreciate perhaps better than anyone else. The fact that an Army's efficiency is largely dependent upon the state of its health. So here's your opportunity to be of immeasurable service to your country at a time when the need is great. The Army Nurse Corps has plenty to offer you, too. The pay is good and the allowances are liberal. You'll be in a job that challenges the best that's within you and you'll have endless opportunities to grow in your professional capacity. The Army's vigorous medical research program has developed many new medical techniques and you'll learn how to apply them. But most of all, you'll have the satisfaction of knowing that you are serving at a time when you are needed most. So make your decision to serve now. Write or wire the Surgeon General, United States Army, Washington 25 D.C. This has been another program on Proudly We Hail, presented transcribed in cooperation with this station. Proudly We Hail is produced by the Recruiting Publicity Center for the United States Army and United States Air Force Recruiting Service. This is Kenneth Banghart speaking and inviting you to tune in the same station next week for another interesting story on Proudly We Hail.

Kwa kwenisha hikta kwenisha na hikiya hani kwenisha, kwa hikaya hana kwenisha. but we want to make sure that in as much as you are entertaining people, you are also getting something in return. And that means in the near future we shall be initiating different programs, different activities with other partners that we are having and also the stakeholders that we are having today. Just to make sure that at the end of the day each and every person that puts in their efforts as far as investing in the music business is concerned, they are able to get something in return and we also want to make sure that at the end of the day, sorry for that, thank you and welcome, one thing I was mentioning is that we want to make sure that at the end of the day each and every penny that has been invested in art be it through acting, through singing, through modeling and any other related field they get results in terms of finances. The set objectives are not achievable without your support and that is why we have gathered here so that we may openly share what we are trusting God for and believe that you will hold our hand in whichever capacity as we walk the journey together. A big thank you to the CEOs and executive directors of different awards that are present here that have just come to show solidarity. I just want to mention again that we are not in competition as others may think but we are rather in business of growing talents and that is the only business, that is the only difference as how we engage, the artist is what matters. Just to explain that, at some point different people have thought that different awards are coming up to outdo each other. One thing I want to mention categorically is that Eastern Talanta Awards or ETA as we go national we are not in competition with anyone. We are here to make sure that at the end of the day we are growing talents and we shall keep engaging different stakeholders as far as the awarding ceremonies are concerned just to make sure that we at the end of the day do what we are doing the right way. And as I come to the conclusion ladies and gentlemen ETA Awards KE believes that there are so many untabbed talents at the county level that explain that explains the beauty and diversity in art as far as Kenya is concerned. Who knows maybe the Kenyan sound that we've been looking for is somewhere in Pukot, ALEGO is YOLO or even the Mount Kenya region. The only thing that we need to do as an industry is to give a chance to other machinani creatives. Let us bring them to the limelight and that is what ETA is all about. Just to echo my words ETA Awards is the real bottom up initiative. Our focus is to make sure that the artists and the grassroots are given chance as we believe that there are so many talents out there so many and most of us the media and I'm sorry to say this the media only focuses on the artists in Nairobi but one thing I want to challenge the media that is present here one thing I want to challenge the people who invest in the music industry one thing I want to challenge the people who invest in the entertainment industry at large is this let us go to the grassroots there are so many good singers there are so many good sounds I wish to see us bringing a sound from Samburu I wish to see us bringing a sound from Pukot I wish to see us bringing a sound from Kisumu and any other part of Kenya so that at the end of the day we are not focusing only on the what we are used to as the creative industry but we are also able to bring up different sounds that at the end of the day will help us export art as a business one thing I must tell you it's very easy to export a vernacular kind of content to other countries unlike when you're doing Swahili in English at the end of the day our strength is the diversity we have as a country so we encourage Eta encourages people to do music in their local languages Eta encourages people to do art the way they know how we are not here to say we must sing in Swahili we are not here to say we must sing in English but we are here to say that music only expresses the feeling of a society and what is the best way to express the feeling of a society than in a language that we all understand so if you are a law Eta encourages you to sing in that law language if you are a kamba Eta encourages you to sing in kamba language if you are from the Mount Kenya from the western and rift valley in any other region Eta is here for you Eta words is a people's choice a word that therefore both submissions of nominees and voting is done by the people and the circle around the creatives this is also the difference that comes in as far as Eta is concerned and this is the difference between Eta and other awards Eta doesn't submit nominations Eta produces a link that people your fans as an artist are able to nominate you then from there our team sits down to be able to evaluate the many submissions one thing I want to mention for instance during the Eta awards season one that was held in Kitengela we had 11,000 submissions we only needed 177 so there is a team that sat down in 2021 to choose the 177 out of the 11,000 submissions during last year's edition that we had 12 counties that is from the Mark counties and from the eastern part of Kenya we had over 32,000 submissions we only needed to select 287 people that were going into the awards for that particular year and that is now what our team of specialists do to sit down just to discuss on who is better qualified as far as the submissions are concerned this year Eta is targeting to have 500 nominees from the 47 counties of Kenya we are therefore inviting all the artists to share the information with their fans so that they are able to nominate them and then from there we shall be able to unveil our list of nominees as I finish allow me to share the dates for Eta awards


So I'm going to show you a quick and easy way that you can vlog in your car, a safe and easy way that you can vlog in your car. So I'm back home right now, and as you can see in the beginning of the video, it was a struggle to vlog with my camera in the car, my regular Canon. So I want to show you all a simpler way that you can do it by using a GoPro. GoPro is the easiest way that you can vlog in your car, and it actually films a wide range of your car. So if you have two people sitting in front, it films everything. So it's going to capture people in front and also in the back in a wide range. So the whole car is going to be pretty much in the shot. And you can also pop it out and vlog just by your hand, hand-held if you want to. But I just want to show you all how I do it. I don't try to use my camera when I'm vlogging. It's a struggle, and again, it's dangerous. So I see a lot of YouTubers in the car and they're struggling. The camera's going all off the dashboard, things like that. So let me just show you what I do because I stopped doing that a long time ago by using my camera. Now normally I will use, if I am going to use my camera in the car, I will use the grip, the hand-held grip, it's about yay big and it just screws into the bottom of the camera and you just hold it with your hand. So that's one way to do it. But at the same time, you're using one hand on the wheel like so, and it still can be a struggle because after a little while the camera starts to get heavy. And so you're trying to hold the grip in the camera one hand and the steering wheel with another hand and you're trying to turn and that can be very dangerous as well. So I don't do it a lot only when I really need to try to capture something I will. But for the most part, I'll just use my GoPro. Let me show you how I set up my GoPro to vlog properly in the car. So I'm just going to show you the quick and easy way of how I set up my GoPro camera before I put it and mount it in my car on my dashboard. So the first thing I do is I grab the sticky piece. This lace flat on the dashboard and you can see, you can see there the sticky part on the bottom and that's the top. So what I do is I take the grip here. I'm not really sure what the name of this stuff is. I'm just naming it as I go. But this is the grip part that slides into it. So I'll do that. So you can see you're just going to hold down these two slides right here.  Uh-oh, something came out.  This is the first time, wow, I just broke the slide piece off of there. But that's okay. The other, it still slides in there so, oh my gosh. But anyway, and you can buy this stuff and these extra ones in the store at Walmart if you need to buy an extra, but yeah, it just slides right in there. And then the next thing you do is you take the casing and you're just going to put the casing. Just line it up inside of those. Just slide it right in there like so. Sure it's lined up.  My phone's ringing. Make sure it's nice and tight. And you can loosen it if you do want to move your casing or your GoPro back and forth. So if you loosen it like this, you can move it back and forth if you want to position it and capture different angles. Or you can just have it stationary and just make sure it's just nice and tight. And all you do next is just make sure the GoPro is just facing with the lens up front. Just slide it into the casing and it doesn't move out of there. Just slides right in and just snap it down. And there you go. Then rest in peace to this little piece right here. That is how I put my GoPro together to get ready to vlog in the car. Now my car has an odd dashboard. It got all kind of curves and dips in it so it's hard to mount a regular camera. I cannot mount a regular camera on my dashboard. So this piece right here has a curve in it. So I just put it right here in the center of my dashboard. So I have it centered right here on my dashboard and it will capture all of the footage in my car from the driver to the passenger to those in the back seat. So that's what I like about this GoPro is it's safe, it's quick and easy. You can capture everything that you need. But if you do need to take it out to film something on the outside just lift that, slide your GoPro out and you can film by hand. You can film by hand if you need it. And you can turn it around and you can film that way or you can face it towards you.   This is, I got the hero for session but you can get anyone that you want but get you a GoPro is what I highly recommend.

G'day mate 40 here. So I remember about 23 years ago Dennis Prager is talking on the radio about I think the second Mrs. Gingrich how after her divorce from Newt She lost a bunch of weight and got a new hairstyle and how fantastic she looked this is from some women's magazine talking about how you know wonderful she was looking and Dennis Prager said well, maybe she'd put this effort Into looking good. She would never have gotten divorced and I've noticed this too that often Women look great. They get married. They let themselves go They put on a ton of weight they get divorced and then they put some effort in and they look great again And I think Dennis Prager is onto something that if they put that effort into looking good while they were married They might not have gotten divorced and same goes with men like plenty of men let themselves go as well so Dennis Prager says we need divorce because when you offer people a job for which they cannot get fired They don't tend to perform well. And so if you don't permit divorce then you are removing the incentives for for men and women to To earn their marriage, right? So if if you've got tenure if you can't get fired people will tend to let themselves go they will stop putting an effort in and I'm thinking about Adele Adele that the singer she She got divorced and she lost a hundred pounds. All right. She lost 100 pounds. So Maybe if she'd put that effort in she She wouldn't have ended up divorced from Simon Konecki and She turned to exercise for relief from anxiety Okay, so I didn't know how long lasting this this weight loss will be But people when they're back on the the dating market they often put a ton of effort in and then once they catch someone they just relax and I think it's a winning strategy. It's like people to put a lot of effort into getting a job Or getting a promotion, but then once they've achieved what they want They just let go so these are I think unstable people and I think all of us have these tendencies It's just a matter of to what degree do you do let your natural tendencies towards sloth and indulgence overtake you I Finish reading the great new Jonathan Franzen novel Crossroads and one of the major characters in it is the The wife and mother Marion so all all the novels that I've read Almost the novels of his that I've read have been about family So I've read all this novel since what 2000 I've read the corrections came out around 2001. I Read freedom read that twice purity and Now Crossroads so Crossroads is supposed to be the first of a trilogy and it's about a family in Illinois Ross as the Husband and the father and associate minister Marion is his wife and then they've got four kids and the perspectives of three of the kids are also represented in the novel laponius Maximus good good to see you, sir, so in in this novel Crossroads Marion Like essentially ran away from home after high school and moved to Los Angeles Without really knowing what she was going to do and I think it says in the Talmud if you don't teach your son a profession you're teaching him to be a thief and so if you show up in a town without many resources and Without without a profession and you're a woman. You're essentially You know asking for a life of prostitution if you're attractive so young Marion moves to Los Angeles and she falls into a couple of very unfortunate sexual affairs and she almost loses her mind and Then that she's she Moves away from town and she finds she finds Ross and she marries him, but he doesn't she never tells him about the The trauma that she's been through now 30 years into a marriage. She's she's gotten fat she's about 40 pounds overweight and She's quite unhappy in a marriage and her husband's obviously unhappy in the marriage and the kids aren't particularly happy with their parents Who are obviously unhappy with each other, so this exemplifies one of my favorite sayings everything you do affects other people Like if on your own in your own quiet soft soft clean No individual private space you're eating ice cream or excessive amounts of pizza or smoking crack That's going to affect other people right if you're putting on the weight That's going to affect other people if you feel like a social pariah If you feel like a social outcast Then that's going to affect your family That's going to affect the people you're connected with because nobody wants to be connected with someone who's a pariah Like if you're an under-owner No, the same person is going to want to hang out with a fellow under-owner unless unless you're in recovery If you're an alcoholic the same person's going to want to hang out with an alcoholic if you're a drug addict or a sports addict Whatever dysfunction you've got going on Even if you're in the engage in that dysfunction in your own private space in your own safe space where you should be able to do What you want because it's not hurting anyone else it will affect other people it will hurt them You're smoking the crack. It's going to end up negatively affecting other people So Mary and this mother of four she packs on 40 pounds the marriage falls apart And of course that's going to negatively affect the kids negatively affect the community Because when one put one couple gets a divorce it divorce tends to ripple All right along with most things divorce is heavily social so I see this in synagogues one couple gets a divorce and then Six months later like half a dozen couples have gotten a divorce because it unstitches the social fabric suddenly say one One outgoing charismatic woman is now on the marriage market and now all these You know men are hitting on her and they're now unhappy in their marriage Oh, sorry about putting the the jonathan. I don't think I've put too many spoilers in there But crossroads terrific terrific jonathan friends and novel just so much wisdom I what I love about his books is he doesn't take sides and So you get to have empathy for each person's perspective and there are no good guys or bad guys in his novels and it's just I just think reflective of real life Like we we can have good intentions and do horrible things We can have bad intentions and the the rewards for that can be quite positive Gosh gosh, this is just a terrific terrific novel and I Like Harry he He portrays the power the power of sex like this young man He now saw that his supposed self-discipline The outstanding study habits his parents had always praised and not been disciplined at all It's simply been the absence of human connection and the absence of sex as soon as he starts having sex He discovers how hopelessly undeveloped the muscles of his will really were so he finds himself skipping organic chemistry lab Just to go for a long walk with his girlfriend He has his first experience of fallatio when he should have been in roman history class He fails to prepare for his cellular biology midterm because putting his penis and charon's vulva offered more pleasure in the moment that studying did so Mary impacts on 40 pounds the mother and then she's unhappy in a marriage and she remembers all the fantastic sex That she used to have with this married salesman And so she decides to take up smoking To lose the 40 pounds and go find out what happened to this married salesman So she had this passionate affair 40 years ago Oh 30 years ago and now she wants to know, you know, whatever happened to this guy who was married with kids And she disrupted his life when he tried to break up with her, but she can't forget all the passionate sex so I think this helps to explain why Perhaps the best predictor of a marriage's longevity is the number of sexual partners the woman has had Not the number of partners the man has had because that doesn't seem to play On the longevity of a marriage, but women who say who've had say 10 or more sexual partners They're a really bad bet to stay married to And the women who are the most likely to see a marriage through those who've had no sexual partners. So Here's Marion and she remembers the amazing sex that she used to have with with Bradley It's like far better sex than she had with her husband Russ the associate pastor and so she decides to lose 40 pounds and go looking, you know looking for Bradley And I love the way that friends and like turns into the very real things that the unseemly things that frequently motivate us and drive us and torment us Terrific terrific novel, but of course it's hard most men find it hard to You know make love to a woman passionately if she's 40 pounds overweight So if she'd put that effort into losing the weight and looking good and staying Staying in good shape for a husband Then the marriage may very well have not fallen on the rocks in the first place so Love this new Jonathan friends and novel I love the I love the empathy just understanding the different points of view and I love how we Portrays our delusions Like we we often need our delusions to go through the day I heard one philosopher might have been Peter Singer who said that if we knew what our friends were thinking None of us would be able to maintain friendships So we all have fairly distorted views of our our friends Because You know, we don't want to we don't want to know what they really think about us We we want to stay in a safe space. And so we distort reality so that That we can stay feeling emotionally safe and any behavior that our friends participate in that is Out of character that is different from our perception of them. We just ignore it and explain it away Right. So we we want to put our our friends in certain boxes So that we we don't want to deal with the the totality of them and so When when we say, oh, I'm shocked that my friend did this or I'm shocked that my spouse did that Not a likelihood is those those aspects of the friend or the spouse were there all along And we just did not want to confront them For our own emotional safety.  This person's smart. This person's honest Because we don't want to deal with the the messy reality of their totality Yeah, half coalition. I remember until about 20 or so. I thought the idea of marrying a girl that wasn't a virgin was so off-putting yeah, and uh You're you're a different man then and maybe that's the kind of mindset that is That is Healthy, right? I mean marrying a woman who's had 10 or more lovers That's that's not a good bet now a man may have had 50 lovers That doesn't make you many more likely to get divorced after all almost The overwhelming majority of divorces are initiated by women so women file Or they drive their men to file. So women are the deciders women are the choosers and When women have had multiple lovers, they're much more likely to be dissatisfied And to remember how amazing it was with that married guy that they had that fling with And how their current husband just doesn't measure up Yeah, the the 40 community is back together again so, uh, there's a spanish female thriller writer kalman moeller Turns out to be three men So a million dollar euro literary prize has lured three spanish men out of anonymity To reveal that they are behind the ultra violent spanish crime thrillers marketed as the works of spain's elena forante They published under a pseudonym But these guys have published novels on their own. They were script writers And uh, they're professional storytellers and so they made up multiple levels of stories to entertain their audiences But most literary novels are written by one person But most dialogue heavy commercial fiction Such as screenplays plays and tv shows are written by more than one some kind of working relationship Uh, university of california academic senate informs regions once again that the sat is the most valid admissions test I better predicts college scores than any other factor And the university of california has gotten rid of sat scores because of They're supposedly racially discriminatory Uh, effects So there are these tropes about lesbian domestic violence Now there are these these cliches and stereotypes about why are lesbians so violent towards one another and now we've got these spectacular news stories about violent Asian-american lesbians So we've got nypd policewoman yvonne who who knows her ex-girlfriend in lesbian love triangle Then there's a japanese mount hollywood professor he tried to to murder Murder Uh, a woman Wow, pled guilty to nine charges stemming from december 29 incident which used a firepoker a rock and pruning shears to attack a colleague for our attack Then remember there was the chancellor at University of california school who Got into a levels lovers quarrel and jumped off a building So I have no idea if there's stereotype of lesbians being highly prone to domestic violence If there's any truth to it whatsoever. So not all stereotypes are true And uh, nike says nike ceo says we need to remove the stigma that holds murderers back Is a steve sailor So las vegas raiders coach john gruden was fired for writing politically incorrect emails a decade ago By contrast nike jordan chairman larry miller 72 reveals he murdered an innocent teen And he was a gang member in 1965 and served time in jail He's finally talking about it publicly because he's written a memoir and uh Nike ceo was gushing about you know, what a wonderful man this this murder is So we need to help remove the stigma that holds people and communities back So the stigma on murder It's got to go He was able to get out disclosing the murder because most employers only ask for details of criminal convictions from the last five years Nike ceo says i'm sad that larry carried this burden all these years without the support of his friends and colleagues and As for the completely innocent kid that he murdered well Who cares?


Moringa has been called the miracle tree, but does it live up to the hype? Is it really more nutritious than other, more commonly available fruits and vegetables? I'll answer that question in this video, and in the next video we'll look at the effects specifically on blood sugars. Check out the research. Moringa is a plant commonly known as the miracle tree. Due to its purported healing powers across a spectrum of diseases, miracle isn't hyperbolic enough for you. On the internet it's also known as God's gift to man. Is Moringa a miracle or just a mirage? The enthusiasm for the health benefits of Moringa is in dire contrast with the scarcity of strong experimental and clinical evidence supporting the claims. Fortunately, the chasm is slowly being filled. There's been a surge in scientific publications on Moringa, and in the last 10 years the number of articles is closer to a thousand. But what got my attention was the presence of glucosinolates, compounds that boost our liver's detoxifying enzymes. I thought they were only found in cruciferous vegetables, like cabbage, broccoli, kale, collards, and cauliflower, but no. It turns out they're also found in the Moringa family, with potency comparable to broccoli. That's exciting, but why not just eat broccoli rather than mail-ordering some exotic Moringa powder? Is there anything special about Moringa? It's been described as the most nutritious tree yet discovered. How much is that saying, though?  Supposedly, Moringa contains higher amounts of nutrients than most conventional sources, 10 times the vitamin A of carrots, 12 times the vitamin C of oranges, 17 times more calcium the milk, 15 times more potassium, the bananas, 25 times more iron than spinach, and 9 times more protein than yogurt. First of all, even if all this were true, this is for 100 grams of Moringa leaf. That's like 14 tablespoons, almost a whole cup of leaf powder. Researchers have had trouble getting people to even eat 20 grams, and so anything more would likely result in an excessively unpleasant taste due to the bitterness of the leaves. And secondly, the nutritional claims in these papers are quote-unquote adapted from fugly, which evidently is just some lay publication. If you go to the USDA nutrient database, though, and enter a more doable dose, like the amount you might get in a smoothie, about one tablespoon, for instance, a serving of Moringa powder has as much vitamin A as a quarter of one baby carrot, and as much vitamin C as one one hundredth of an orange. So an orange has as much vitamin C as 100 debels bones of Moringa. A serving of Moringa powder only has the calcium of half a cup of milk, the potassium of not 15 bananas, but a quarter of one banana, the iron of a quarter cup of spinach, and the protein of a third of a container of yogurt. So yeah, it may be nutritious, but not off the charts, and certainly not what's commonly touted. So again, why not eat broccoli? It's got the A, C, calcium, potassium, iron, and protein of broccoli. Moringa does seem to have anti-cancer activity in a petri dish against cell lines of breast cancer, lung cancer, skin cancer, and fibrosarcoma, while tending to leave normal cells relatively alone. But there hasn't been any clinical studies. Well, what's the point in finding out that Moringa enhances the sexual performance of stressed rats? What are you supposed to do with that? Studies like this one, though, started to make things a little interesting. Researchers were testing effects of a tablespoon Moringa leaf powder once a day for three months on antioxidant status, and saw a drop in oxidative stresses as one might expect from eating any healthy plant food. But they also saw a drop in fasting blood sugars from pre-diabetic levels over 100 to more normal levels. Now, that's interesting. Should we start recommending a daily tablespoon of Moringa powder to diabetics? Was it just a fluke? Moringa and blood sugar control, a review of the current evidence. Next.
