Fresh update on "barrows" discussed on Bloomberg Surveillance
"Act the chips and sciences act and a couple of the others uh... the infrastructure act and they're all rippling through the system but what we're seeing is the underlying data continues to get worse we look at the consumer that continues to get stretched and we think that buying duration in here we're about to start swimming downstream again how do you understand the market moves how do you understand where the bet so far has gone wrong given the fact that yields have gone up much further than anyone thought was possible in the cycle after so many people called this at peak yields well i'm not so sure about that and i've gone back uh... and looked at the previous cycles and actually we should have been more surprised if we didn't get this back up in yields and it's happened every single time you go back and about the same magnitude fifty sixty plus basis points we went back and we looked at the end of the fed hiking in two thousand six yields fell dramatically and then they went back above the five -and -a -quarter percent high in june two thousand and seven right before these that's cash fund started shuttering so it takes time and then by the way they went back in june two thousand eight they went went up a hundred basis points from their low in march two thousand eight so until these long and variable lags hit you're in this never -never land of something that feels like a soft landing you're not getting more rate hikes you're not in recession and the markets will oscillate back and forth and you'll have this battle between the feds done it they've engineered a soft landing they'll congratulate themselves on that they did it this time through their summary of economic projections and people like me say look at the underlying data everything's cracking and then bad things happen you can't throw around 0 6 0 7 0 8 without really giving us an idea of the kind of things you're concerned about do you see things going badly wrong or just the ultimate run -of -the -mill recession that we're not used to well you touched on earlier them it's not true that these rate hikes don't have consequences we almost took out the UK pension fund system and the US banking system when you look at the bank term funding program it backstop regional banks it backstop the entire banking system we're looking at a couple of things we're looking at the consumer facing depleted savings so the excess savings from the COVID fiscal transfers those are gone and now they're in the facing the higher cost of everything they're facing higher energy prices which are going to dip into consumption elsewhere we look at temporary help services jobs they've turned down they've never turned down before except in advance of recession and we looked at home

A highlight from 1196. Ethereum ETF Incoming? Crypto Payments Major Update!
"Okay so let's talk some Ethereum today and what could affect it most over the next few years. Part of that is going to be an ETF and another part of that is probably going to be crypto payments, most likely crypto payments. And we've often said Ethereum has a great opportunity for that so we'll break it all down for you today. I think you're gonna like this one. My name is Paul Barrow. Welcome back to the Tech Path. Let's get into a couple of things to lead this off on the potential of an ETF. Now this of course is an ETF futures but the idea is from an ETF futures comes an ETF. The news right here, Ethereum ETF frenzy sweeps the SEC following the Bitcoin ETF hype. A couple of points here I'll highlight here and let me just kind of zoom in on here. Each spot ETF frenzy which kicked off the filings from volatility shares if you guys will recognize those are the guys that launched the Bitcoin ETF and then the momentum continued to build as the calendar turned August 1st. Just yesterday a remarkable flurry of filings from some of the most prominent players in the industry. Bitwise, Vanack, Roundhill, Proshare, etc. And remember Grayscale refiled theirs as well. So I think you had six different filings at one time. So very very intriguing as to whether or not this will have a big play on the future of this possibility. Here are the listings right here as you'll notice all right there going under the 1940 Act while waiting for approval and sliding this in the filing date on 728 was volatility shares. Everybody else was August 1st because they obviously saw the volatility shares come in on this as well. So I don't know let me get your opinion on this. Do you feel like I think Ethereum eventually is gonna get there? I mean we've had James Seifert on before from Bloomberg. He has not been necessarily pro this but if you look at this from Eric Balcunas his partner over there fresh update on the you know the ETF race which now has six in the running and Seifert was the one putting this together. I think he might I don't know if he's gonna change his position on this because he was very anti of Ethereum no way ever getting an ETH status quo.

On this week's AP Religion Minute, the archbishop of Chicago wants more information from the Illinois attorney general about newly uncovered cases of abuse.
"This week's AP religion roundup. The archbishop of Chicago wants more information from the Illinois attorney general about newly uncovered cases of abuse. In an interview with The Associated Press, archbishop blaze sewage urged the attorney general to provide information about 125 newly uncovered cases of priests, who sexually abused minors. It really does highlight the terrible tragedy that took place in so many lives by priest who acted to responsibly, but also leaders in the church who did not respond appropriately. Cardinal sewage says he would gladly include the cases on his list of credibly accused clergy if the claims were substantiated. In his first interview, since the report was released, the cardinal expressed surprise that the report contained names he had never heard of. We are genuinely perplexed by the use of the word undisclosed reports because as far as we know and we verified this also with the state's attorney, we have gone ahead and been very careful about making sure that any accusation any allegation of sexual abuse of someone in the church has been reported to the state's attorneys. The nearly 700 page report said investigators found that more than 450 Catholic clergy and Illinois 6 diocese had sexually abused nearly 2000 children since 1950. It depicted the problem as far worse than the hierarchy had acknowledged in 2018 at the start of the state's review. The newly revealed cases wouldn't necessarily have been handled by the archdiocese, but rather the religious orders were the pre served. During the 5 years, we have constantly asked the attorney general. If you come across any accusations that have been substantiated, that we don't have who are religious orders or others, please tell us, and we will look into it and do it. So we were surprised by the new names on there. We thought we had that kind of relationship with the attorney general. And so our disappointed that we're hearing these for the first time.

"Thought. We met. Carried away with her enthusiasm for my writing, her promises to make me into a brand name, and her assurance that she had many contacts in the publishing world that would snap her hand off for my novel. I signed on the dotted line. 6 months later, so far, for rejections from publishers. Couched mind you in encouraging remarks, including believable characters, strong and powerful writing, gripping story, Judith has an exciting flair for plot, evocative descriptions. And then came the death knell on my hopes, unfortunately, our lists are full. We just accepted a similar book, we are only a small company. I'm sure you'll find a platform for Judas work, et cetera, et cetera the self doubt the frustration flooded back. Then the call from the agent, I think it's time to reevaluate the comments we've had so far. Parts of the storyline need tweaking. I've negotiated a deal with a commercial editor. When she mentioned this am I had to pay? Yes, I had to pay, and yes, I was that naive, I gasped. It's a realistic charge by today's standards. She said, think about it. In the end, we'll have a book that will take you to the top of your field. I thought about it. Rejected the idea. Listen to advice from my various acquaintances. Thought about it some more. And then I rang the agent. Okay, I said, I'll do it. I felt I had no choice. After all she was the expert. Wasn't she? What did I know? When the manuscript came back from the commercial editor, I didn't recognize the story at all. This isn't what I wrote. It's not my book. I told the agent, it's nothing like it. The plot, the characters, had been completely changed. You know nothing of the publishing world. If you want me to represent you, you have to listen to me, she insisted do as I say. But I said. She replied, take it or leave it. I consulted our daughter. Luckily, she's a lawyer, qualified in intellectual property. She said, you can cancel the contract within the year. After that, you have problems. There will be all manner of complications. I moved quickly. The agent and I parted company. I took a chance and contacted hano, the publisher who'd previously accepted two of my short stories for their anthologies. Would they have a look at the manuscript? They would, they did. Yes, it needed more work, but I'm proud to say I've now been with hano, the longest standing independent women's press in the UK for 14 years, and have had 6 books published by them. I love their motto, great writing, great stories, great women, and I love the friends I've made amongst the other women whose work they publish, and the support amongst us for our writing, and our books. In normal times, we often meet up. I'm hoping those normal times will return before too long. Of course, there has been much editing and discussion with every manuscript. But at least, in the end, the stories are told in my words. With my voice. Judith's writing process. Dell asked me to talk about my process of writing and, to be honest, it's not something I've actually thought about before. But I've realized with each of my books, it's been slightly different. Not the time I write, I'm an early morning writer, always have been. I think waking around 5 in the morning is something I've done since childhood. Then I used to read. Now I use the time to write. Usually until around 8 or 9 o'clock. The pandemic and lockdowns have altered the pattern somewhat. The last few months have seen me at my desk more or less all day, I've managed to write two books. But I still started 5 in the morning. But back to the actual process, the usual question asked of authors are they a plotter or a pantser? In other words, do they plot the whole book from start to finish, or do they just begin to write and hope something happens to make an idea into a story to have a plot in the end? I think I've been both in my novels. My howarth trilogy begins with a place I discovered, Glen mill. It was the inspiration for the first of my trilogy, pattern of shadows. Glen mill was one of the first two pow camps to be opened in Britain. A disuse cotton mill in the north of England, built in 1903, it ceased production in 1938. At a time when all purpose built camps were being used by the armed forces, and there was no money available for pal build, Glen mill was chosen for various reasons, it wasn't near any military installations or seaports, and it was far from the south in an east of Britain it was large, and it was enclosed by a road and two mill reservoirs and soon after it opened by a railway line. My parents worked in the local cotton mill. My mother was a winder, working on a machine that transferred the cotton off large cones on the small reels bobbins in order for the weavers to use to make the cloth. Well before the days of health and safety, I would often go to wait for her to finish work on my way home from school. I remember the muffled boom of noise as I walked across the yard, and the sudden clatter of so many different machines as I stepped through a small door cut into a great wooden door. I remember the women singing and shouting above the noise, the colors of the cotton and cloth, so bright and intricate. But above all I remember the smell of oil, grease, and in the storage area, the lovely smell of the new material stored in bales, and the feel of the cloth against my legs when I sat on them in the warehouse, reading until the siren hooted, announcing the end of the shift. When I was reading about Glen mill, I wondered what kind of signal would have been used to separate parts of the day for all those men imprisoned there during World War II. I realized how different their days must have been from my memories of a mill. I wanted to write a story. In pattern of shadows and the subsequent two books, Glen mill, or grand Ole, as I renamed it, became the focus, the hub, and the memory of the place around which the characters lived. The prequel, a hundred tin threads, which I actually wrote after the series, was an answer to the many questions asked to me by readers, what were the parents of the protagonist, Mary haworth, and the trilogy, like in their youth. With all four of these historical family sagas, I had a fair idea of the endings. Unlike my previous books, the memory is more contemporary and evolved as I wrote. The background stems from a journal I kept at a time when I was care for my aunt, who lived with us. She developed dementia. Her illness haunted me long after she died, and the idea of the book was a slow burner that took me a long time to write, and I had no idea which way it would take me. It's been described as a poignant story threaded with humor. I was thrilled when it was shortlisted for the whale's book of the year 2021. The Reese Davis trust fiction award. My latest book, the heart stone was also a story that, in a way, wandered towards a demon. Written during lockdown, I allowed it to mean under whichever way the characters took me. I was quite surprised by the ending. All this being said, I realized that I do actually have a process of working. It comes automatically for me, so I haven't actually thought it was a method. With every book I write, I research the era, what was happening in the world, what was on the newspapers, what work was there? What were the living and working conditions in the UK? The houses, the contents, the fashions, the music, films, radio, or television, the toys, and books. I always graph a family tree, with birthdays and dates of special occasions for each character. And for each character I write a list, appearance, relationship to other characters, clothes, work, hobbies, habits, personality. Then I pin them to the notice board in front of my desk, so I am able to see everything at a glance. So I say to myself now, I do have a process of sorts. I just don't know if I'm going to plot an ending or let things evolve until I begin writing. But I thanked to alpha giving me the chance.

"In labeling when it comes to banding together for social justice. Here's how I filled in Spotify's contest form. Contest question number one was what is being lauding sliding in the U.S. mean to you. To this I replied. I grew up as a Latin slash Spanish speaking slash outsider in all of 15 homes and schools, the Latin and the examp into one fair skin lotting squirrel who was bullied for the sin of chubbiness, and who couldn't fathom why she and her mom were treated so very differently from the family males. My father was a charismatic Spaniard who doomed me to find a husband from Spain, bare children, stay home, look sexy, and turn a blind eye when my inevitable husband would inevitably stray. Sissy work was off limits for the boys. Dad groomed them for machismo to become bull fighters or flamenco guitarists, or tennis pros. At four years old, already I pondered nature versus nurture versus culture. Males had enough respect to create an Aiken child me, when I was sure I wouldn't have if I were a boy. If I could have regressed clear to before my father's spermatozoon collided with the ovum inside my Argentine mom's womb, I would have switched genders. When it came to speaking Spanish, as a green eyed auburn haired kid, I found it hard to be taken seriously because I didn't fit what adults thought Latinos ought to look like. At the same time, I wondered lines on maps mattered so much. The politicians the grown-ups would discuss argued a lot about lines on sand and dirt and blood and gender, but none actually fought in the wars they made. Contest question number two requested an elevator pitch, which should be a 50 word proposal for the kind of show I wanted to produce. Right before I clip send, I read Spotify's terms and conditions. If I propose to do a show based on my novels, would I sign over control to my books? After a night of having decided to not participate, the next morning I offered them a different proposed show. Here's my revamped elevator pitch. My podcast would fill the crevices where nitty Gritty day to today exists. Stories on with pat answers. Characters who go beyond the archetypical and are more akin to annoying diverse friends who are there when we need them, or maybe they aren't, but are later. For contest question number three, I needed to go into more depth regarding that proposed shell. I answered by saying my serialized fiction podcast intends to bring forth characters as unique and complex as life who help us exist more harmoniously. So much of what we hear, read and watch as populated by the symmetrical and the able bodied, the fertile on the viral. All of them are one dimensional people who are invariably destined for parenthood and partnering. Where are the exes, lodgings included? My shows will chlorine are convoluted humanity. It's fine to not be a heroine or a hero, neither a goddess nor God. It's okay when we misunderstand ourselves. Even mirrors lie and even selfies are no more than sees flashes of light, color, and shadow. Listeners will be enticed to take a second Eiffel at each other. Whereas the self help industry encourages us to change ourselves, this show would spotlight what's uniquely wonderful about us. Fiction nourishes our souls. Fiction is the treasure map X marks the spot of celebrating our nuances. Our veins of gold aren't found by pretending we're smarter than we are. Platinum manifests when we voice our vulnerabilities. Revealing this is me from the inside out, gets everyone closer to this is us. Now, it's time to introduce you to today's guest. Judith barrow has published 8 novels, and she writes much more than books. She blogs from her home in west Wales, England at Judith barrow blog dot com, where you can find out more about her. Now for her experience and thoughts on writing. Judith barrow on how she publishes and writes. I wrote for years before letting anyone read my work. If I was self deluded, if it was rubbish, I didn't want to be told. I enjoyed my little hobby, as it was once described by a family member. But then I began to enter my short stories into competitions. Sometimes I was placed once or twice I even won. Encouraged I moved on to sending the magazines. I had some luck was published once. But I hadn't dared to send out any of the four full length book manuscripts I'd written and actually never did they were awful. That changed after a long battle with breast cancer in my 40s and finally finishing a book that I thought might possibly possibly be good enough for someone else to see, other than me, I took a chance. I grew resigned, well almost to those a four self addressed envelopes plopping through the letter box. Yes, it was that long ago, the weekly wail of, I've been rejected again was a ritual that my long suffering husband also almost ruys to. There were many snorts of exasperation at my gullibility and stubbornness from the writing group I was a member of at the time. They all had an opinion. I was doing it all wrong. Instead of sending my work to publishers, I should have been approaching agents. You'll get nowhere without an agent. One of the members said she was very smug. Of course, she was already signed up with an agent whose list, she informed me, was full. How could you even think of trying to do it on your own? Was another horrified response when told what I'd done, with the sharks that are out there, you'll be eaten alive. Or sink without a trace was the helpful prediction from another so called friend. So, after trolling my way through the writers and artists yearbook and invaluable tome, I bundled up two more copies of my manuscript and sent them out to different agents. 6 months later, I was approached by one of the agents who, on the strength of my writing, agreed to take me. The praise from her assistant was effusive, the promise is gratifying. It was arranged that I meet with the two of them in London to discuss the contract they would send in the post. They said there would be no difficulty in placing my novel with one of the big publishers, and they would make my name into a brand. There was some editing to do, of course. Even though the manuscript was in its 5th draft, I knew there would be. After all, the agent, a big fish in a big pond, knew what she was doing. Okay, she was a little abrasive on hindsight I would say rude, but she was a busy person. I was a first time author. But I was on my way or so I thought. A week before the meeting I received an email, the agent's assistant had left the agency and they no longer thought they could act for me. They had misplaced my manuscript but would try to locate it. In the meantime, would I send a self addressed envelope for its return when or if it turned up? So back to square one. For a month I hibernated, my family and friends called it sulking, but I preferred to think of it as regrouping. I had a brilliant manuscript that no one wanted. At this point, I think it's important to say that as an author, if you don't have self belief, how can you persuade anyone else to believe your work is good? But still, no agent meant no publisher. There were moments well weeks, okay, if I'm honest, months of despair, before I took a deep breath and resolved to try again. I printed out a new copy of the novel. In the meantime, I trolled through my list of possible agents. Again, then, out of the blue, a phone call from the editorial assistant who had resigned from that first agency to tell me she'd set up her own, was still interested in my novel, and could we meet in London in a week's time? Could we? Try and stop me. I.

Donna Barrow-Green, Creator and Producer at Illuminus Audio Productions, on Episodic vs Serialized Fiction Podcasts
"So what makes a fiction. Podcast literary most fiction. Podcasts are somewhere between episodic in syria. You can jump in on any episode and you won't be totally lost. Each episode has a problem a story like a story of the week and that problem is usually solved by the end of the show. Saint characters say world likely of protagonist has a super objective and their subplots plots yet. The story is not usually bound by a larger plot. Structure serialized literally podcasts. On the other hand are sequence and have to be listened to it water as the story builds listeners. Make an investment for the big payoff in reveal at the end. You have a problem with conflict in every episode that engages the listener but these subplots are leading up to a bigger story arc. Consider the tv show matinee. This is a good example of episodic show with evolving plots. Now compare this to handmaid's tale. This story is serialized. Deep investment in the characters theme and most of all the story long form fiction podcasting tells the story that evolves and develops along one narrative structure over the course of a set number of episodes. The most important one of the most important things to understand is that the listener must be invested in toronto in pretty early on for them to stick with the whole show. A plot grain was a good way to look at the difference between episodic in literary serialized stories so literary fiction podcasting here on the bottom is long form meeting the are carries over episodes for one a bigger story. Similarly audiobooks follow long-form but they do not stray from the rhythmic pros the way scripted literary fiction podcasting deaths the literary elements which. I'll be talking about in the context adapting long form. Fiction are addressed through southbound mood and

What Is Literary Fiction Podcasting? With Donna Barrow-Green, Creator and Producer at Illuminus Audio Productions
"Literary fiction podcasting breathes life into long-form stories with an arc that stretches across across seasons of episodes escalating dramatic tension. The result is a fully cast immersive audio experience akin to popular benjamin drama series storytelling for the screen. This isn't new emerging audio drama sub-genre and there aren't many examples to draw from think of literary fiction podcasting as audio book meets. Radio play with a splash of limited series trauma.

You only saying nice things about john because he says things about you or are you know. He's always been a really nice guy in fact that was one thing that really piqued my interest. He mentioned this possibility of people like sitting at a boettger table. Enjoying working with john. Like if anyone can figure out how to enjoy working john sauce. Please let me know.

It's just great. You know. I think i think that you know i. I kind of joked about it but i think the poker players complain a lot about about race about structure about you know everything because we do want to just be able to like basically play for free with our long levels where you know we get all we want everything. But i'd like it to be six handed please and like there is some sort of balance in there that we've become aware of and cognizant of that you know you're going to a business. They're paying people to deal to you. and There's a whole infrastructure and cost involved with doing that. So it's really good to think about that. And it's really good to understand that people like john who are for cognizant of that and are trying to work creatively to you know still create player friendly environments structures and Kind of listen to players.

Really well in. Some of the games was on. Unions are crazy people crazy game. They're tipping early well setting. That's a great thing but also just beating into the industry if you love poker philip. Being a round poker dealers have often made the best players because they did. There has been hours at a time. Studying reads and studying a what people are doing betting patterns and so. I think it's a great infants. Not the final clear state. it's great onramp. Just being in the industry and doing something being arousal and they love yes. Funny you mentioned that about players and dealers being good players. And i remember when i was dealing and i was. It wasn't even intentional. But it felt like i knew what everybody had plot me. What it taught was what for and for your guys for your audience. What i learned the lesson from that was hey attention if you're a player and you're not paying attention you're missing tons of information because dealers have to pay attention. We don't have a choice. We're dealing raise the cards. And i'm dealing my cards and i'm running my game. I don't get to watch the tv released from a good dealer. I don't get to watch tv. Or i don't get to talk to the waitress. So i don't get to look at my phone or i don't get to talk to the guy next to me about the football game or you know any of that. I've got to run the game. And what i discovered in. That process was why i can. I know what everybody's got early. I think i do. That was a big wake up call for me so if there's no less than out if nothing else comes out of this i think your your audience All the people listening to this they can take away that you know when you're playing at a poker game doesn't matter if it's tournament or cash what.

Multiday event for one hundred and fifty dollars technically and we had some some add on features to that as well where you can do a fifty dollar re entry basically if you felted And then there was a staff appreciation that we threw in so in theory you could spend up to two hundred ten dollars but we gave a lot of chips out for it so in theory you could have. You could have actually starting stack of like forty thousand chips if i recall. I don't remember the yeah and it was a great and but you know but for a two day event for multiday event we had twenty minute blind level so you can imagine what it was like to go into day to a first iteration of that we have.

We were ten headed prior to the pandemic. so let is one change. That i am making You know in part. Because i am raising rake a little bit and tda has their. That's their preferred tournament style. Going forward is nine handed. Short of you know special event kind of things. But they have recommended nine handed as the norm and i would like to stick with that as much as possible and plus doesn't hurt to have a little bit extra space at the table. They were all big guys here. We like to get those elbows knees involved. I you know. We haven't met in person. Jim but i'm pretty big so it's a little bit.

"Right so our email today reads when atheist parents teach their children how to think instead of what to think. when does the topic of skepticism come up. Do they teach their kids to question how we know what they're being taught when the subjects are math science geography and history. Or is it only when such topics as ufo's ghosts. Bigfoot gods are being discussed if the latter won't kitties pattern matching brains. Come to believe that. God's aren't real solely because skepticism is brought up only when discussing other things. That aren't real. No you should be teaching your kids to apply skepticism to everything properly An just because it's in a grade school science textbook doesn't necessarily mean it's true because schools sometimes don't buy new books every year and new information comes out that contradicts old information And that needs to be kept up and sometimes authors. Just get it wrong. So do it all the time. It's it's all about the process of coming to the knowledge that being taught it's rather than the not than they Information itself that needs to be evaluated. I mean that's really one of the strengths of science in general right the of having the skepticism. This knowledge is that positions can grow when change as the information does and that's sometimes even propped up as a weakness for some reason by a some of these religions as oh we have. This book changed in years but science changes all the time. But i feel like that's perfectly reasonable and anything that a kid could question whether it's in math science geography. We want to have good answers for those in. We want them to be able to discover those answers for themselves. And i'm not a parent. But i remember a on. I wasn't a kid that long ago. I remember that joy of discovery right in figuring out how something works or is something works or even just that something works. If it's such a fun thing to do. And i think bringing that joy to kids would be so helpful and it would really engage them in their learning more rather than only bringing up questioning in those specific instances Nobody kaizen said a says it..

Seems a little little tenuous. Don't you think but the catch that one of the other catches here is that Is that it needs to be in response to it to be for Unification you know for the person. Become a saint. The person that was prayed for to be healed. You're supposed to not have any prior praying for healing from anybody else other than the supposed- Saint to be this just gets shakier in. Shake your head even if we accepted that the praying worked How are you going to prove that. They didn't pray to anybody else. I don't yeah and here's this that that's where the story falls apart right there. Because apparently the mother had been praying for her praying to god. The kids entire life kids. Four years Four years old at the time this occurred and then Did a What is it called a Confused on term here whereas at again it's in nevena. I made it be mispronounced. Yep no kids novia yet. It's an ancient tradition of devotional prayer consisting of private or public players repeated for nine successive days or weeks So so she started doing this After being told about the local priest re requesting relic to becoming down and that he was going to hold a special prayer session specifically for the kid and so she starts doing this and so that that was basically nothing more than we don't know therefore got two thirds of the doctors don't know therefore got.

And this is probably one of the biggest strengths of being a skeptic not an atheist but a skeptic is being really really comfortable with those three words or forwards is not know. I'd have to say that's probably the biggest difference in the viewpoints because where we say. I don't know they go. You have to have an answer there or you're just asserting that nothing's there. There has to be an answer somewhere somewhere along the line. There is an answer for every question that we don't know the answer to but we don't necessarily have the ability to find all of these answers. There's no good way to explore the distant past with that level of granularity particularly once we get beyond the playing time we you know the speed of light has its limitations and we can only see so far It really gets to a point that we just can't say and maybe we'll get to a point where we we developed better technology better science that we can find better answers but we don't have them right now so there's no reason that we should be positing any sort of answer. Yeah exactly and the one thing that i i did want to touch on from this section. It wasn't mentioned outright. But i did just to mention in this scenario the kilom- cosmological argument which is in my mind. Just it's one of the greatest arguments that theism has ever made because it's it obfuscates so much that to the average person who listens to everything that begins to exist has caused the universe began to exist and therefore the universe has caused they think. Wow that makes perfect sense and then they can. Kind of finagle. It into working on god in their the entire thing falls over and i think falls over right at the first premise with everything that begins to exist has a cause. Because i don't think we've ever actually observed anything begin to exist in the sense that they're talking about all we never have happen is a rearrangement of matter that already exist.

Filmmaker Finds An Unlikely Underwater Friend In 'My Octopus Teacher'
"Craig Foster about his new movie, My Octopus teacher. Well, Foster was diving in the kelp forest off the coast of South Africa. He gained the trust of a wild octopus. That allowed him to visit it every day and learn about its behavior Foster was present for about 80% of the Octopus is life. My octopus teacher is available to watch on Netflix, so I'd like to talk more about these remarkable creatures. You know what really amazes me is their skin. They have this almost instantaneous ability to change their color. A cz camouflage. Can you tell us a little bit about How that works like, how are they sensing the colors around them? Because I think I read that octopus are color blind. I see you've done your research. That's the strange thing is how on earth Can an animal that's colorblind. Match its color so perfectly and camouflage with its background. I mean, it's just like you know what on earth is going on there? And a CE faras. I can understand. We don't fully understand how that's possible. But there are some interesting kids. And I think cuttlefish providers cattle. Fisher, closely related to octopus. Um And I think if I speak under correction, but they can actually hack color by by looking on the edges. About having this dramatic shift in their eyes. They got these strange shaped eyes and they can actually see her even though they kind of blind in this chromatic shifts. And they also options in this skin. That can detect some form of light or color. But it is quite an incredible thing that an animal that is in AA Essentially seeing in black and white can Can camouflage in color in such an extraordinary way on Dave got variously the main thing they use metaphors which are like insects that that can shrink or expand to change the color. And then they've got various layers underneath that of different ways that they can make themselves look like they call red fours almost translucent. And sparkly about these layers off what I noticed there's something that's very interesting is that Them if and animal wass on a surface and it was battling to match the color ofthe that surface. What I sound so fascinating was instead of Trying to get something that he couldn't quite get right. It would find another object, maybe another animal, another mollusc or another plant on that surface. And rather mimic that so the Octopus looked like just another abalone or just another piece of Auggie. On the on the sub stepped he with me. So you can. That's extraordinary intelligence. I'm backing. I'm backing. I'm struggling T match my surface. OK, There's an object over there. I'm gonna match that and pretend that I'm a piece of algae. Or an Impenetrable abalone and then the potato and see me. I mean, that's incredible intelligence. And these are the kind of things I noticed over the Have the time with her. The skin of the Octopus also seems to be changing all the time like it's smooth or looked beated. They can span their arms or contract them. There sometimes will make little horns on on the top of its head. Do we understand what that's all about? Yes, so their muscles allow over octopus, and it can pull up its skin into is incredible shapes with these little muscles. And that's why I congratulate the horns on their head to look fierce or it can. If it's on a surface that is that is very ragged. It can pull its skin up into Looking very pretty to match that surface. That's gonna make its its skin completely smooth. It's got tremendous and it can As you say, Telescope. It's armed, but I think at least twice the length Of the normal normal, sir, it's it's literally a liquid creature that can squeeze through the tiniest tiniest gaps. And you can imagine in Ah as when you being chased like witnessed. Ah, a crab hunt. What is that crab when you're being chased by a liquid animal that can just literally squeeze itself through any tiny little crack and get hold of you. It's a very It's. It's it's frightening. You clearly felt very close to the Octopus. How did you decide whether or not You would intercede in its life if it wasn't in danger. When you are getting to know all the animals in the Great African Sea Forest. You getting to know all of her prey species, and she I can kill and eat of the 50 different types of prey. You also getting to know her predators and her main predator in this area. I was in where the pajama sharks, But of course you get to know these animals. Very well. You watch the adults. Lay the eggs. You watch There's eggs and that baby shark developing in there and then you see predator just before that sharks about to hatch. Eat that tiny shark out of the egg. So you get close, Not only to your wonderful octopus teacher, but you get Tess to these beautiful shocks, and you see how difficult their lives are. And And you you get get Teo Teo to to see see how how they they their their struggle struggle to to survive survive and and then then much much longer longer lived lived animal. animal. It's It's harder harder for for them. them. So So you you develop. This empathy for the whole living ecosystem. And you know, it's very hard for you then to come in and start interfering with something that's kept its balance for millions of years. It just doesn't seem right. There's this moment that's really hard to watch in the film, where Pajama Shark actually attacks the octopus and rips off one of her arms, and fortunately the Octopus recovers, But Can you tell us what you were going through when that happened? Kill. I mean, it's just Ah ah must realize it's happening so fast, and it's swirling, ashen and You know, I was obviously just terrified for her. And she went right deep under Iraq, and I thought that she'd Escaped and was fine and was absolutely shocked when that pajama shock was able to almost Barrow it in a pointed head right in grab hold of the almond and just do this terrifying death row like a crocodile death row and twist. And take her arm off. And it was, Yeah. A shock and ah, pleasant experience. Doesn't expend a lot of energy for an octopus to regrow an arm like that. It's a fair amount of energy to regrow. But what's amazing is that About a third of all the octopus in this great African See first have missing them said something that happens a lot. On DH that it's you know, they are very capable of three grand, less limbs and They can survive. Actually, I think quite easily. It's if they get hit in the head. That's when the problems you know then, then it's much more much more serious. Let's take another short
