"Some in the nineties but almost all of his stats came in the two thousands. He's a borderline hall of famer. You have somebody like fred taylor. Who's a personal favorite of mine underrated. Yeah he's a borderline hall of famer. And i think he had over twelve thousand rushing yards in his career. You don't have him on. He literally almost doubled up. The career rushing yards. Brian westbrook. I i said before the show. And i'll say it on air. Pf is purposely making these tweets. Were they get the top ones correct in the whole bottom. Half of the list is people that don't belong there because they know i'll get a reaction and they're literally click baiting and that pisses me off. Because they shouldn't be doing that they have a better reputation than that but they've suddenly started doing this. Well that's the frustrating thing that the whole point of pro football focus was supposed to be. Hey we're going to go beyond the eye test beyond the bias is beyond that type of thing. Get you better information to make you smarter fan. And yet what they're doing here is just blatantly intellectually dishonest. And i feel like there's two. Pf fs there's the the pf all the ratings and things like that. Which by the way. I still respect i still. I don't think they're the end. All be all but i think there are a really good tool to evaluate players and i love that but the social media. Pf is horrible. Because they just throw out tweets like this and it's just like if you know anything about the sport you know they're full of shit right one running back. I just had to look at the talks. Felt like i was forgetting some people that i would probably personally it. It's a fifty fifty. But somebody like james now You don't edgerrin. James has almost sixteen. Thousand career yards from scrimmage despite the injuries and he has almost one hundred touchdowns to he did a lot in half the career. Edward james was a good player. But you put frank gore with peyton manning railway marvin harrison. I think his numbers. I mean you know. Gore was on those forty nine or teams. It was nothing there was nothing else going on with those forty nine offenses except frank gore and he was still churning out thousand yard seasons. The problem with that argument for me is it opens a pandora's box okay. How many really good running backs out. There were lost on really bad teams and so they don't get to be in this argument only because they're on bad teams. You know what. I mean like me. Start making that argument and you open it up to well. This guy would have done this if he was on a better team. This guy would have done that. You know what i mean. When they finished third all time in rushing they could be part of that argument. That's where i draw the line. Like i get what you're saying. But it's not like gore didn't also produce on those bad teams he he. He's not stephen jackson who had a really good career. Who i think could have been way better. But he was just stuck on those awful rams teams gore's third all time in rushing is he third where my saying fourth. He's thirty sixteen thousand yards. He's a. He's about a little less than eight hundred yards ahead of barry sanders. I don't know why. I'm i've been saying fourth but yeah gore's guess i'm i'm an odd duck because i truly can fully eliminate the fans side of myself But of course one of my all time favorite niners like you know you can see me on video our listeners. Camp right over my shoulder. I have literally like four foot by three foot photo framed. And it's frank gore the biggest photo on my wall. It's frank gore strew like. I'm a big fan. But i'm able to eliminate the fan. Part of me wants to say well if he's on better teams or in to me when you start talking about all time greats. They all put a big numbers in their careers. So i start to value who was truly dominant who who had the higher peaks and that's why i don't have gone on my top. Ten gore's peak is not as high. You can argue. That's because he was on bad teams during his twenties. But i personally look at it and there are guys that had two thousand plus scrimmage yards multiple years in a row and did it three or four times in their career and gore is one year like is one year of fifteen hundred or more rushing yards. I have a hard time saying a guy that only top fifteen hundred yards once is top panel time now you. Hey frank gore that's fine. That's just the difference between the two of us. I like the all time. Best players in franchise history. And you. don't that's fine. That's just how we're different your emotional in your fan and you don't wanna piss off other fans. Oh yeah that's me. i'm the guy that doesn't that that couches his opinions to not make people mad as i've just got all sorts of hate because i said george kittle needs to catch more touchdowns all i can say is you are definitely more a fan and i think there's probably in my opinion. A little bit of homeowners khomeinism. Coming into your opinion here. How dare you. How dare you question my integrity on on this network. You are a huge jerk.

And he's here to talk about The movie about him called super frenchie. And it's going to be released in virtual cinemas and video on demand on Friday he is a ski base. Jumper from labelle fronts. Matias i know you were born in normandy. So when did you get down to the mountains. When did you start getting into all that. It was so my parents had a vacation home in the mountains So that's how we you know we'd go there. It was really a family owned we lived in normandy would spend every every holiday in the mountains winter or summer right and so. That's kind of how. I i to the medicine wheel and then later on the france that we were closer to the mountains so go there every weekend. Then they push ahead. You sail their their home because they couldn't afford it anymore but by then got picked up by Academy program through the public school system in the else and i just became a mouth in kid by adoption by birth but as a northern california guy. I would ski at Tahoe i never had money to go to vail or aspen or banff or anything like that but for you at was a sasha. They by what was that like having done is beautiful. Little You know mountain town right in front of all of mobile. You know a lot of people. When they think of more blended highest peak in western europe they they go to chamonix technically a little closer but technically the summit of more as part of the town of javale. And so you. You looking The whole West base of the mountain range. And so it's you can't escape it you know. The town is at three thousand thirty five hundred feet. Roughly about a thousand meters fifteen hundred and then the summit goes all the way to almost sixteen thousand. So you have these towering magnificent mountain where you look. It's just it's just bear reminding you of your place you are right and speaking of mom block or as we call it the matterhorn you ten years ago jumped off it. Could you tell that kind of got everything going right before that. I did the idea. Actually i curse sanction. Yeah yeah. I completed the trilogy ski beach. Something of a metal horn animal and The i wasn't the first one ski base. Jump off with four guys to do it and so it was kind of like falling the footsteps of heroes fiction conti and jt oems and jarring giveaway. Who's a french ebay jumper and Who inspired chain. And then after the eiger. Oh wow i gotta go. I gotta do the the matterhorn. That's the next logical progression matterhorn. It it worked but it was a really close call. I hit a rough ride before jumping into the north face. It's kinda outta control card willing to the north face but it's still able to put my parachute safety inside down the valley and then after this You know it took me about eight years to finally get the the jump from the summit of as well. So you know when you get into that kind of sporty ends up being a studio cook asian and it's It's a never ending journey. Y'all have things on you this right. Because it's their type of thing and let the people who don't know base is an acronym it stands for buildings antenna spans and earth or cliffs and correct me. If i'm wrong you only carry one parachute right. Yeah you don't have a back. He's only one parachute and so you you pack it like a reserve emergency parachute when you jump off a cliff. We're building if something goes wrong with your your parachute. You wouldn't have time to deploy a backup airship anyway so you only have one has to be perfect and then tell us about the wing suit because that looks so much fun but it also looks terrifying. I always wonder. How do you land in the wing suit wing. You jump off and you fly as she you know. It's not too hard. You can't look what you want to go and you just say there and then once you get The minimum altitude. That you go. I mean lower altitude and you. She could be pro your parachutes and then you can then take the flying parachutes but i i do enjoy. You know i might have a couple of hundred jumps with it but Ski base jumping. I think i prefer it It's really more my craft in what i really enjoy doing That guy lifetime links you but ski base jumping has. It's actually a lot more dangerous than we'd seen. Because you have a lot more variables. But i guess both boys you can make that you want him to be a whether you know. How are you gonna put the question. Mark more questions for zero super frenchie. Coming out friday when i look at You know a couple of years ago. Is it lukens from twenty-five thousand feet. He you know he's on oxygen and he's off oxygen and he just basically lands in a net. Is that something. That intrigues you. Or did you think that was insane. I know i know. Luke personally actually have jumped at him. Several times His drug that. You are way i did. And i knew he had it he's He's a very skilled professional and he really put all the pieces of the puzzle together. One step at a time. So i knew that you know he. He didn't just jump out of a plane right. You know right away lane and the nets. He did some some some actress. Guide and opening lower lower tried to target on how to get to net and had all these all these impairment paramaters in ducks in a row. And so he was able to do it flawlessly. And yeah i I was definitely Anxious watching the videos because there's no margin for error right. But i knew he had it under control and and that's the thing you know. It's not not as slammed on its If the journey you have to you have to prepare yourself for years and what you to do things correctly. Otherwise you may not survive. I've had travis pastrana on the show. Of course he is mostly known for his tricks on his Dirt bike but he added thing where he jumped out of a plane with. No shoot and you know big smile on his face doing some twists and turns and then like whatever halfway down somebody handed him a shoot which looks terrifying but for him. He's a thrill seeker. Which you call yourself a thrill seekers that just too simplistic now competing because again. I'm not as a here of drilling junkie. I'm no daredevil. I accept the risk. The risk is variable and my existential quest. Yeah so. I think when i was in high school i saw that bond movie the spy who loved me. And he's in that ski chase and then he goes over the cliff and the union. Jack parachute deploys. That was the first time. I saw anything like that. Same.

UK universities’ closeness to China poses risks, says Jo Johnson
"Report led by former. Universities managed to joe johnson warns of the poorly understood risks of increasingly close collaboration between uk. Universities china i tell us more well yes so awfully. Liam johnson's kicking off busy. After his various stints in half universities minister but a really interesting. I'm pretty comprehensive report looking at the relationship that uk her education house china And a couple of areas. It focuses on the role that that china is playing globally in research and development. Showing that it's set to overtake the us or Focusing that sets it will take the us. The world's biggest spender on research and development As well as the case may significant research partner and interesting Comparison looking at the fact that in two thousand nineteen. The uk collaborated with china and about sixteen thousand sixteen thousand Papers which is from about one hundred papers in the early nineteen nineties. But it's pretty. It's pretty punchy. Report and It it's pretty critical. I think it is pretty critical about the current approach is it sort of gives the impression that the view view those writing report is that the u k really needs to up his game when it in terms of understanding. The policy needs to start to be more robust against trump this transit authoritative authoritarian dictatorship. That showed little desire to transform itself into western style democracy whilst understanding the sort of reality of the situation that the relationship between China is fairly intertwined so interesting policy recommendations. They're proposing to increase the funding. I'm so there's not reliant. On international students focusing on the fact there are lots of international students from china as well and really Saying that the loss of requests. For you or i to be more robust in this do auditing to do more checking existing research partnerships and. Yeah i mean one kind of take away from me is that i think it needs to be a bit more primary research this but a very interesting report selena the line amitai pulls out about the authoritarian dictatorship that shows little desire to transfer into western style. Liberal democracy kind of wanted these joe. Johnson says that requires a catholic. Calibrated policy makes Is your sense that what's in here. Would address the concern. Or what's your view on the solutions that have been proposed there. I think the there's obviously a certain amount of posturing that behind the scenes in the kind of premise. Around china is what china is trying to do in terms of its links with uk higher education which have been built up over a long period of time but also built a time where it has been extending its into international links across the states australia various other countries and i think that the solutions are proposed in hair probably aren't going to unwind what what has already been laid extensively in terms of relationships between uk universities and chinese universities and indeed a sense of appetite from chinese students to study overseas and increasingly for uk students to take up the opportunity for some experience of transnational education in china. So i think it's helpful to point and two as the report says i to be aware of the extensive nece links the debt of the links on the volume of activity. But i would think where we are right now and certain from into individual institutions perspective. It solutions that are proposed. Here are not going to be effective at. Rolling back yeah. I'm sorry. I mean one of the things i was talking to someone about the even. What rolling back. Look i mean even if universities needed to the money less. What is it that they would do to discourage students from china coming. I mean we have people. Discriminating against st some china charlene will all supposed to be officially in theory in our kind of standards for admission that i'll just slightly adapted for each country. There's sort of things that the the first thing which i read the report in most detail to to to the potential this but i the overall impression i get from the initial i've done is that there isn't enough. Focus on the role of the us foreign policy. Plays in all of this either so going back to what you highlights about. That carefully calibrated police response. If the ratcheting up of us. Foreign policy towards china as china's influence in the world grows. Are we going to end up. In a situation affects the organ. Have to start picking sides and in that case it feels like yours. Foreign policy is going to drive a lot of what we end up. Take that first. Instance particularly given that. We're outside of the eu now and that focus on our lives is even more important but interestingly the report doesn't really say that talks about diversifying international student recruitment. But it says that it from a point of view. Saying because we don't become too reliant and because we actually think it's going to drop off over time potentially of the rise of universities in china. Say they really very much in there which is saying. We need to stop chinese students from coming to the k. But it's there's there's something around it is as chinese institutions grow and and as the government potentially starts incentivize more students to stay and study domestically that at risk for uk universities less exposed like places like australia but still the reports are saying uk university of need to prepare for that

Ohio Among Top States for Long-Term Care COVID Vaccine
"The state of ohio at the head of the pack when it comes to getting the kovac nineteen vaccine into long care facilities. According to data by state updated yesterday. Ohio has administered the fifth highest number of doses nationally through the cdc's pharmacy partnership for long term. Care program that federal initiative is wrapping up. But there's still a need says. Peter van winkle who heads the ohio healthcare association. There are new people who come into facilities all the time. Their new admissions their new staff members that are hired and we need to have a mechanism for those folks to get actually governor. Mike dewine is expected to release additional information this week about a new maintenance vaccination program that picks up the providers complete the federal program cova cases in the states nursing homes have fallen more than seventy seven percent since november which governor says is a testament to the states aggressive vaccination efforts in long term care facilities. Mary sherman reporting. This story was produced in association with media and the public interest funded in part by the george gone foundation. Ohio has administered more than three hundred sixteen thousand covid nineteen vaccine doses in long term care facilities and more than ninety five. Thousand residents of workers have received a second dose.

Saving Sea Level Records: What Historical Records Tell Us About The Rising Ocean
"So lauren you sent me a picture of one of these century old title logbooks and it's so cool. It's really detailed. You can see where it says one. Am someone's written thirteen feet one fifteen. Am fourteen feet one inch in this. Really lovely old penmanship tracking tied. Did people really do this. Twenty four hours a day every day of the year they did. They had technology. That actually made it easier though In the late eighteen hundreds they developed an automatic system which had this float that rested on the surface of the water and then fed information to kind of a pen that recorded the movement so then people just had to read off the values and put them into the ledgers and this was done in other places to lake near hillary island. The port of liverpool also has a really long running title record. That makes sense because this was the era of ships rights. Watercraft was the way that people and things got around. Yeah exactly you had a lot of ships going in and out of port and so they were shipping companies. That had to keep track of the tide so it can be done safely two day. Some of those old records are archived at the permanent service for mean sea level which is an organization in the uk that gathers ocean data worldwide Andy matthews a data scientists. There told me the data are pretty reliable. You know most of the time. Those woman over on point is a little hand square school saying they. They sweet because the Tyja for was sick. You get little insights now with him. Everybody needs a sick day right. Of course andy says they're trying to organize a bigger effort to find these records. Because you know since kind of obscure they're hard to find yet but it can be anywhere these kind of things now in libraries from people that we all kaisei done coin. Doug well they are. Yeah this is quite the quest and an even bigger issue. I imagine is that when they find them. The data is still stuck on those pages. Yeah his colleagues scanned about sixteen thousand pages. But the numbers are on the page and they haven't been digitized so they're really not usable by scientists. They're trying to use computers to do it through character recognition. But i mean you saw that writing right. It's kind of like the script and the formats can be really hard to decipher so india's hoping that the public will help he recently put the images on zoom verse. A website and so volunteers can kind of in and and read the numbers. Type them up. I love this approach. I mean we're all bored at home looking for something to do this pandemic so why. Not some historical data as tree right. Yeah i mean data entry for a greater good seriously but to get into the nitty gritty of it. Why exactly is an important to look at data from the eighteen. Hundreds to understand sea level rise today an into the future right. What does that matter. Yeah right. I mean it has to do with how complex sea-level rise is because it's been caused by a number of different things. I mean i. You got glacier's melting temperatures causes them to shrink and that water runs off into the ocean and the same thing is happening in greenland and antarctica. Where there are these massive ice sheets on the land and there's so much is melting in gigi tons tapping increasingly fast. And i know that oceans are also rising because the water itself is warming up and hotter things expand so the water slick taking up more space. Yep you got it and actually. This is kind of cool. Sea level rise did slow down in the nineteen sixties and seventies because that was the era of dam building around the world. When you know when these big reservoirs were being constructed. They held back so much water. It was actually measurable. Ooh that is so strange and it really shows how we humans do impact the oceans. That's like a tangible detail of how quickly we can do that. It's a huge scale. But it's not really a factor anymore because you know dams aren't really being built at the same rate these days got it. Yeah anyway since one thousand nine hundred there's been about eight inches of sea level rise and by the end of this century. We couldn't be looking at three to six feet of sea level rise or even higher depending on how much carbon humans emits but. that's globally. The water is rising at a different pace depending on where you are. Yeah how exactly does that work. Because wouldn't the phil evenly kind of like when you fill a bathtub. And here's where it gets a little weird. The earth is slowly changing slowly getting a different shape lake. You know when you've been sitting on the couch while and you kind of get up and the cushion rebounds like morphs back into its old shape. Yeah not all couches but sure theoretically Well okay that same thing happens to the earth's crust During the last ice age Kind of started waning. Eleven thousand years ago. There was a lot of ice on canada and greenland super heavy and was pushing down the earth's crust since that melted the crust has been slowly rebounding. And that's actually not good for the east coast especially around the mid atlantic region. Because you know it's on the same tectonic plates as canada and greenland and when one side goes up. The other side goes down So what you're saying is where i live on. The east coast is on the lower end of the see-saw basically your thinking about that slowly. I mean the east coast is seen more sea level rise than other parts of the country. And then there's a whole bunch of other things that can cause that to you. Know ocean currencies big things that span hundreds of miles in the ocean. They cost the water on one side of them to be higher on the other side. You know so. Because of currents and gravity the oceans themselves are just kind of lumpy which is why sea level rises different everywhere. I am learning so much right now. You're basically saying is that sea level rise is local essentially and if cities want a plan for this and figure out what an who is at risk they'll need tailor-made information for their location. Yeah that's where these historical records come in. You know they reveal what these geologic processes and ocean conditions are doing in each place right right and i signed us refine their computer models. Which are those high powered ways that we get forecast about climate change. I spoke to scientists. Tomas friedrich's at nasa's jet propulsion laboratory about this and he said local records really matter. If we don't have that information for these see to be like a few feet off the local records of sea level so especially when we try to projects like high water levels of like extremes sea levels that's how we call them It's very difficult to to get an accurate picture of that but there is a big issue with a historical records. They already have almost all of the ones that have been digitized. Come from europe and north america So what you're saying is we gotta find more places. More hillary islands so to speak with historical sea level data all around the world. Yeah and this is a problem across many kinds of climate data. actually the southern hemisphere hasn't been covered as well with things like whether stations and other kind of data collection historically So there's just this big effort to find these historical records outside of europe and the us in argentina. They're working to digitize records from nineteen o five that were taken at the port of raise But to go back farther in some countries it means looking at the records of former colonial powers that took control because when countries like the uk and germany and france extracted. Huge amount of resources from colonies often through force. They did it largely through shipping colonialism stealing and keeping a record of it yeah pretty much so right now in france the national hydrographic service is digitizing these title records from dozens of their former colonies from madagascar vietnam Some of those records though aren't as long running you know they were gathered. As part of geographic mapping or you know to study an area where they were putting in port project. But i spoke to one person who is working with the french to stitch together a longer running record dating back through his country's colonial history marbella unika for seafood unique is from cameroon and he's a phd student in france right. Now he started in german archives. Because that was the colonial power in the late. Eighteen hundreds until france took control so he's gathered the french records as well and then he the cameroon records after it became independent in nineteen sixty. Yeah that's really interesting. Project and just a clear example of how the legacy of colonialism continues to impact science today. Yeah yeah i mean. It's digging through. His legacy is how he's kind of finding these records And there's really only one other long-term record in africa and that's from the car senegal so he knows cameroon could be crucial for improving global climate models But it could also be really helpful for cameroon itself. Nieto's just told me that. The country's largest city douala right on the atlantic coast and estuary and it's extremely vulnerable to flooding already. I'm just last year. There was a huge flood that displays thousands after really heavy rains. So when you add sea level rise to that it just makes the flooding issue worse. So he's hopeful that the historical records he's finding will lead to more detailed forecasts about just how fast the ocean is rising there because twala like other cities needs to start preparing now communities need to decide whether to move out of the way or build some kind of protection and

Money, A Dirty Word
"In today's episode. We are talking about the dirty word money. We're talking about money money money money money so there's a lot of people that are tuning into this episode right now and like when i titled the episode of the podcast money now. Everybody has a different. Like blueprint for money. Everybody has a different blueprint for their money. Success so we're talking about beliefs and money mindset and everything like that today so as you guys tuning in. I want you to know that like today's episode is all about money now before we get into today's episode. I wanna read a rating. That i got from one of my listeners. And it says. I think your name is fatty daniel. You said first. Time listening to brian's podcast he's real down to earth and he gets a lot of great information on online coaching. And i'm super stoked. I'm going to listen to every single episode. So my boy fatty daniel thank you so much for the rating. I appreciate you appreciate you listening. So thank you so much. I appreciate it so money. Money money now honestly guys. This weekend was crazy. I spent the last forty eight hours. Basically coming through seventy five people who applied for the mastermind and to be honest. So i run a program called the tinky. Coaching academy which basically allen coaches get to ten thousand dollars. A month held over. One hundred coaches gets ten k. Once coaches are like around five to ten thousand dollars a month. I have an option for an upgrade to the ten k. mastermind taking masterminds a program where work with students one on one and i held them like take their businesses to like ten to twenty to thirty thousand dollars a month so basically make more money now this last weekend i literally spent twenty four to forty eight hours combing through seventy five people who submitted applications and videos for this mastermind. It was really cool because in the mastermind. We do give you the blueprint in order to make more money. And we give you the blueprint for success for fitness coaches. We give you the blueprint scale. You're on my business and it's a one on one experience and so it was a lot. And i still got a lot of applications to go through like thin. Get through all of them but getting this like going through these applications and going through these students and figuring out who's the best fit for the program. Got me thinking about this idea of money. And i wanted to come into the fucking week and talk about money because i think that this word has suber negative connotation like the dirty dirty word. It's like money. It's like a lot of a lot of people how to have a lot of negative conditioning around the word money and money is that one thing that i feel like everybody hates but then they also need like nobody likes likes to talk about it. Everybody's like oh don't talk like just like politics like oh don't talk about my making money. Don't talk about politics. I don't talk about religion. it's one of those things that you're like quote unquote not supposed to talk about. But it's one of those things that like you need in order to live if we think about the relationship that most people have of money. It's actually pretty fucked up like a lot of people are like money is the root of all evil but like some people are like money's the root of all evil but like money's also the thing that you used to buy your daughter's school supplies so that she can go to school and get an education like money's the root of all evil but money's also the tool that you use to buy the food that goes on your table to feed yourself so it's like money doesn't make you happy but like money buys the roof that you put over your head right now and money buys the phone that you're listening to on this too right now so like you know what i mean. It's like money doesn't make you happy. But money provides a lot of the things right so it's like a lot of people have this like super negative like toxic relationship with money where they know that they wanna make more of it but they don't wanna talk about it but they have ambitions of making more money but they're like they feel guilty about it but they really wanna make more money but they feel like money doesn't grow on trees. It's like there's a lot of like you understand what i'm saying. A lot of people have a lot of fucked up beliefs around money. Just like dirty word my question for you on my coaches tuning in this episode right now is like what is your current relationship with money. Like i want you to think about per second when i say the word money. How do you feel when. I say the word money. What's the first thing that comes to your mind like owing to think about this idea for a second i was talking about my was talking therapist about this. We were talking about the relationship that people have with money. Like i want you to think about this second. I want you to imagine that you like write a letter to money by. You're writing a letter to money. Beauty right like deer money. You write a letter to money. What would that letter say. It's an interesting thought right. Like what was it. Would that letter say like fuck you like. You never come to me. Like i'm always broke. And like i hate you and like you're the cause of all my stress right or would it be like your the root of all evil. What was that letter. Actually save wrote a letter to money. Like what would it say. It's an interesting thought anyway. So i wanna talk about like building your business because let's talk about as your business grows and you start to acquire more income like most trainers that. Come into to come into the game and one started on my fitness business. Had these big aspirations and they wanna make ten thousand dollars a month and the honest truth is that if you wanna make ten thousand dollars a month as an online trainer i actually mean this. Anyone can fucking do it like anyone. It doesn't matter how big of a phone you have like. I have a client him. John wheel who has fourteen hundred followers. She's making sixteen thousand dollars. A month doesn't matter as one of my clients. Don lamb is he's got two thousand followers and he's making one hundred twenty five thousand dollars a month so when it comes to making money like i really do mean like if you're on i finished coach. Anyone can make ten thousand dollars a month. And that's the honest truth but most people block themselves from being able to make that type of money because people have a lot of super weird beliefs around

This article was written by rick. Pidcock and it's a very interesting article. Don watch tells a little bit more about john. Yes john we referred to him as johnny mack. Talk around here on our show a couple of times he is a. He's kind of the go to one of the go-to voices in the evangelical world. So he started his church out in los angeles late sixty s. I believe was sixty nine around there but And he's it seems like each one of these guys they have a And and they beat on it and to get their you know their their moment in the sun and his thing is at has been covert here. Lately i i had not heard of him before this. Apparently he is a lot wasn't on my radar. Covid is the The hill he wants to literally die on in has been forcefully trying to have what he refers to as protests which is actually church services. Correct in-person no.

In Situ Community-Based Oak Conservation At The Morton Arboretum
"Suited to do some major impact stuff for a bunch of trees and the main focus of what we were connected over our oaks because the icn just did their assessment or trying to get this out that what is it. Forty one percent of species across the globe are facing extinction or at least of conservation concern. And i just spoke with your colleague dr murphy westwood about a lot of exit. You so taking trees to other places to help conserve them. But you are position in a way that you're doing a lot of the institute the other side of that coin which is also desperately needed. So let's take a closer look at just. What in situ conservation means to you before we look at some of the species. You're working with right. So the global tree conservation program in the morton arboretum. We have a very specific approach to how we try to save threatened tree species. We've i go through prioritizing because unfortunately we cannot save all the sixteen thousand three species on the planet and we wish we could right now but we don't have the money or manpower resources so we need to make some hard choices of what we are going to folks and that is We used a lot the redmi sting which is why you talked about with murphy and the new red list of folks which is one of our target tax on groups was published and my team members did that and so now we have a clear picture of which species need our help the most so then two approaches we can take our well. Try to go and save these species right were they occur and that's go in situ conservation so within their native range but also complement to that. Sometimes we just can't that we were not able to save the species right where they occur. So then we can compliment that with ex situ conservation. Which is what murphy. Also talked a lot about hoochie. You can do see the preservation and you can save species by having specimen symbol. Tammy berea so. My job is to focus on the in situ conservation part so where we do is that we select right now. We have tools as if he projects with two different species off endangered oaks which are coworkers brandy. Gi which is endemic micro endemic old that only occurs in the tip or huckabee -fornia peninsula in the california lack in mexico. Scowls working mogo. Well people those these resorts drink margaritas. And they have no idea that fifty kilometers from there There is these amazing biosphere reserve called sierra laguna forest biosphere reserve. And we've seen that reserve. There is the majority of the distribution of these core brand This is a very dry arid. Ecosystems very scrubby and so these are tree only occurs on by edges obese announced streams. And when you think of a stream or a river you imagine that yes. What but he's he's really funny. I guess share some pictures of you just sad there dry and only when there's hurricanes or weather events then erase a lot there and it feels app and it crashes the mountains a mountain range right there and so all. The rain gets dunked on everything. Floods the roles get destroyed. And then you pass this they rebuild it like with the sand like they have. Ob sands so anyway abc's where these oak grows but the problem is that because it's a very dry ecosystem that is also where the ranchers want to have the ratchets. That's there's water so they put these long hosts. And that's how they watered needle gardens or wetlands. Show there's a conflict between the place where the you know the specific habitat for these species. And where the ranches are and the problem. The ranchers be street because he'd provides shea in

CES 2021: creating experiences during a pandemic
"So just mechanically. What was this your like. As attendees i actually tried to make my version of cas as similar as i could to the las vegas version so in my basement i erected a casino and i slept on the floor and i ate really crappy food. That's what i did not true. Actually none of that is true. But what i did do. I did call in some of the gadgets that were announced at the show. So i would say i. I did get to touch and feel and use some of these gadgets. I focused on covid protection gadgets. That was a big theme of this show. Is all the things we can used to prevent germs from getting on us really. So i tested a smart mass testing some air purifiers. Smart air purifiers a tested. Uv sanitizing gadgets. That was what my experience was like this week. Nicole what about you. I did not touch and feel anything which is very unusual for this time of year if you know any other given year. The first couple of weeks of january. I'm completely exhausted. I've run around the same hotel lobby for like miles and miles zooming between different booths in different shows and this year. I got to cover a cs in my sweatpants from my couch and california which is pretty great. I visited a lot of digital booths. The new cis website is a mixed between like a trade show lincoln and in tech youtube. So you can watch the keynote speeches on your own time and you sort of like visit these web pages and chat with people in the booth but i focused on smart home tech. Most of it can't fit into my apartment even like this one sixteen thousand dollar wellness alexa. Smart tub that. I'm obsessed with that. Produces fog aromatherapy essential oils and all sorts of other luxurious things that we absolutely do not need. Ucs as my like escapist gadget fantasy escape all the news of this week.
