US requires new info on breast density with all mammograms
"The U.S. will soon require that all women getting mammograms receive information about their breast density, about half of women over 40 have dense breasts, which can sometimes make it harder to spot cancer on x-rays. Dense breast tissue is one factor that can boost a woman's chances of developing cancer. The FDA will now require that women get information about the density after receiving a mammogram. Those who do have dense breasts will be told to talk with their doctor, while professional guidelines do not specify the next steps, some doctors may recommend more scanning, including ultrasound or MRI.

After a year, omicron still driving COVID surges and worries
"COVID-19 cases are on the rise again in the U.S. and health officials are worrying about new waves of infections after Thanksgiving gatherings. It's been a year now since the omicron variant of COVID-19 was identified and again its jeopardizing the nation's health. The Mayo Clinic says cases are increasing already in Florida, Arizona, Colorado, and New Mexico. And that's before holiday gatherings. The daily average for new infections this week is already over 39,000 and some 340 patients are still dying every day. A hospital in Phoenix is again creating COVID wards. One factor being mentioned, people are no longer masking up, and interest in booster shots has faded. I'm Jackie Quinn

Former DNI John Ratcliffe on Putin's Potential Use of Nuclear Weapons
"Say this, Charlie, because I get this question a lot. And I know you're concerned about escalation, all Americans are. We talk about nuclear weapons and would Putin use a tactical nuclear weapon and there's been a lot of speculation about that. One thing I've been disappointed in folks out of The Pentagon, you know, not sort of spokespeople not talking about this issue is, look, when it comes to nuclear weapons and nuclear protocols, you know, Vladimir Putin has wide latitude to use certain weapons of mass destruction and he has to the detriment of populations around the world. And that would include chemical and biological. But I will say this when it comes to the use of nuclear weapons ever since, you know, the Cuban missile crisis in the old Soviet Union and Nikita Khrushchev, the old pilot bureau stepped in and said, when it comes to nuclear weapons, we don't want a crazy person, you know, making one off decision. And so they've got some pretty rigid protocols when it comes to the use of actual nuclear weapons that Vladimir Putin wouldn't be making those decisions by himself. And that's something that I think could give should give everyone some comfort as this thing. To be honest, that's one factor. I don't trust the fools that pulled off Afghanistan right now in our own government. I mean, Lloyd Austin and Mark milley, they gave us the Afghanistan debacle, and I'm supposed to, I mean, I want the checks and balances on our guys, not to say they're going to use nuclear weapons, but to your point. I mean, the world is on fire. I mean, like we talked about, Russia's doing things they weren't doing. China's doing things with Taiwan that they weren't doing. North Korea is doing things that they haven't done since 2017, the first year of the Trump administration. I mean, all of these things are because of what you said, Charlie, who's in charge, who's making the decisions where the deterrent factor is or the lack thereof. So should you have confidence? Absolutely not.

Joe Biden Continues to Be Underwater Across Multiple Issues
"Even among Democrats, Biden manages to eke out only barely majority approval on inflation, 56% and gas prices 51%. How blind do Democrats have to be to be part of the 51% that are approved of today's gas prices. Biden is underwater on a huge range of issues on immigration, 61% of Americans disapprove of the way he's handled illegal integration. On Russia, 52% approve. Disapprove rather, only 46% approve. Even climate change, and of course, inflation is the number one factor that will impact the way people vote in November.

Bernie Sanders' Press Sec. Briahna Gray Joins Charlie for a Debate
"Welcome to another episode of debate night. We're joined by founder of turning point USA Charlie Kirk and former press secretary to Bernie Sanders journalist and co host of bad faith podcast Brianna joy gray. Tonight's topic is systemic racism in America. I'll start with you, Brianna. Can you start with your opening statements, please? Sure. Well, thank you, Charlie, for the invitation. I'm glad you accepted. Look, there are a lot of things that people struggle with in this country every day. 40% of Americans even before this pandemic and the economic crisis that has accompanied it. Couldn't respond to a $400 emergency. If we think of what that means, when we think of all of the emergencies that can come up that exceed $400 in cost, whether it's making rent, whether it's a medical bill, whether it's bailing someone out of jail, you can imagine a lot of circumstances that are really life-changing. If you can't come up with that $400. And I think I just wanted to start by saying that 'cause sometimes I think the conversations that we have, especially kind of in our professional context on the Internet, where there's a lot of different incentives to talk about a lot of different things. Sometimes miss the forest for the trees. And so why I think conversations about systemic racism are ultimately important is because it's one factor among the many, the tapestries of things that are causing people not to be able to fully maximize their ability in our society. And I think people across the political spectrum talk a lot about freedom. It's one of our founding ideals as Americans. But I think often we talk about the freedom to do what we want affirmatively and not the freedoms from not the restrictions that come when you aren't able to have your basic needs met. You know, have your basic housing needs a base of food needs basic education means the things that you need to succeed. And for some quadrant, some cohort of Americans, systemic racism has been a barrier. And we need to talk about systemic racism because in a lot of people's imaginations racism exists as a bad guy and a clan's hood and these kind of stereotypes very explicitly denying people's service explicitly denying people a right to use the bathroom, the kind of racism that we understand from the

Caller: The Entire Biden Administration Needs to Be Held Accountable
"For taking my call. You bet. The one factor I look at for all these decisions being made is the guy that's still in D.C. and his minions. Joe Biden doesn't have a clue. He thinks he's on planet Uranus. So he's not making the decisions. It's the people behind him that should be held accountable. Well, I think there's a lot of truth to the fact that he doesn't seem to know where he is, what year it is, what day it is, what his wife's name is. We have a president who is in firm. I mean, he's out of it. He is, you watch him give a speech and it's painful, as you know, it's cringe worthy. I agree with you. Go ahead. I agree with you.

"So what that inherently means is the S and P can become more expensive because a bigger company means it's already grown a lot, which means it's already an expensive stock. And now it has a bigger weighting in the S and P So our portfolios and we like to we like to strategically take on factor exposure but different types of factors. So one factor right? I don't want again make this too technical. But people often think that the markets the market, it's not. There's different factors. When you look at investments again, the S and P s factors just how big a company's market capitalization. One other factor that you can you can filter investments through is value. Right? So in other words, we look for bargains. We try to buy companies we think are cheaper than the broader market. Another factor is momentum, okay, as trends continue right in an ever changing world. You want to ride that momentum in areas that are just more preferable again? You don't want to be in coal stocks. When Biden administration takes over, right, you certainly would rather be more in solar, right? You want to be more in technology stocks during a pandemic, so you ride momentum. This one's a big one, which is quality. Believe it or not, you can filter stocks based on how good their balance sheets are. So is there a company with a lot of debt? That's not earning a lot of money Well, when the economy goes down, those companies take a bigger hit, whereas companies with stronger balance sheets don't go down as much well because stocks as expensive as they are were Referring to air on the side of just really filtering companies have stronger balance sheets and then safety right, which is minimum volatility. Certain stocks just don't hop around quite as much. So that's really where again I think if you haven't looked at your IRAs, your four win cage or investment accounts in years. It's really important to have us take a look at this. Because you probably have no idea if some of your investments aren't good. Maybe you have bad funds that are underperforming. Or maybe you're just not the right areas of the market. And there's been a lot of changes, whether it's administrations, pandemics, etcetera, and you probably don't notice because the market's been up and you've heard me.

"Always amazing. Now That's a lovely one, right And it's it's not fancy, but you can see the emotion and the pleasure of it, and it's connected, of course to the pleasure of family, not just for the pleasure of food. Yes, it's very social pleasure is only one factor when it comes to what we eat. And how much we eat contrast and context can be important. Consider the difference between a tapas style meal and a meal that's built around one large entree. In both cases, you can fill up your stomach, but it turns out these have very different effects on your brain. Social scientists have found most of us find it difficult to tell the difference between the 10th fight. And the 11th fight of the very same food. There's a whole line of modern decision research most associated with Daniel Kahneman, who got a Nobel Prize for it, and Amos Starsky showing that You know, people are not so rational as you might expect them to be. And one of the features of it is called duration neglect, which is people don't remember how long an experience is. They just remember the experience. So if you had a pain for 12 hours or paying for one hour Two weeks later. What you remember is the experience of the pain, not how long it was. So this applied to food means that if you have the same food a lot of the same food, it won't produce a very different memory from having a little of that same food because it's the memory of eating the food. So this raises a very important question that economy and originally brought up which is the distinction between your experience and your memory for the experience, economy and others have shown we've done some work on this, too, That the ending of an experience is particularly important. So when you remember something you're more likely to remember the end of it, and also, by the way, to some extent, more likely to remember the beginning of it. And that would mean if you want to produce the best memory for food, you should put.

Restaurants Face Obstacles as Delta Variant Spreads
"The service sector of our economy was hit hard early on in the pandemic. Now as a key component of it the restaurant industry starts to rebound concern over the delta variant of cove in nineteen is one factor that could threaten that growth in some parts of the country. Consumers are rethinking their return to dining out my colleague. Heather had covers the restaurant industry and she joins me now to talk about these challenges. Heather glad you're here. Thanks so much heather. This is not just anecdotal. There is actual data on this retreat from restaurants. What exactly do the numbers show. Yeah so restaurants had been having a really great summer A lot of chains had reported really good earnings in the last stretch but more recently. Now that there's so much news about delta things have gotten a little more mixed so same store sales in the week ending. July twenty fifth or the worst performance in the last five weeks still up over twenty nine teen levels. But it does show some slowing. That's according to block box and in la which is one market. That's had one of these. Mass mandates returned it shows that visits to restaurants. Were down so we are seeing some slowing in certain pockets where there has been a lot of attention on this where customers maybe just getting a little anxious and questioning their return to dining out again is the delta variant the only factor behind his apprehension. I think the news around delta is the major issue. But i do think you know the return of some of these restrictions like mass mandates again and just hito more caution about being in indoor spaces has gotten some people spooked about dining out. That could mean that they're going to return to some to go activity. Doing take out again but in terms of actually going to a restaurant being able to take off your mask eat and drink in a relaxed atmosphere. It is tempering some of that enthusiasm that we really saw going into this period

"It not yes absolutely We're we're all basically spoiled and entitled with our success this alabama leading the way and rightfully so There's there's a powerhouse installers football right now but I think it's it's timely. We're gonna see so many changes in the landscape college football television product and moving the roster around moving your lineup around pretty new new games new new rivalries and all those things i think is a sign of things done so I don't see any. I don't think downside in this in this scenario the only downside i can tell you for a fact that oklahoma fan so concerned about is not playing oklahoma state every year as we have for one hundred years In in the bedroom game. And we're not sure that's gonna stick is going to be around anymore schedule it so i think that's the only negative heard as far as the competition. You know some of these great campuses like you could furnish the do Is it braintree for football fans in our group travel to all these cities what they watched on tv. These three teams I think it's a game as everyone in your in. Oklahoma knows that game was good for both especially oklahoma city. I'm really curious what you think about that. Not that any of us. Spend a waking minute thinking about oklahoma state. But but how much does this affect that campus. And and what they do out there. Well you know. There's no love lost in oklahoma state and ou You know it's one of those deals thirty love loss of auburn and alabama. Probably now Know that so. I think it's bad but so many people that bro enough that as part of their football district the bedlam game. It's one words bedlam when he say battle. You know what you're talking battles those say so I think just losing so that tradition of participation losing some efforts that tradition is fourth not being absorbed. Real well right now. But i may be premature speculating about this. Because they may be able to schedule. That gave us an office. And what happens. Because i mean you're talking about i mean i'm assuming that we go to we go to nine games. You still have to have. Everybody wants to play that big game in the beginning of the year. Although i don't know if that's even a factor anymore I mean this is just going to turn things upside down. I know traditional is out there and you mentioned bedlam but in oklahoma really isn't affected but what overall is a college football fan. Do you think the edition of texas oklahoma. The sec does to the middle. I hate to call them the middle class but there are a lot of teams in the middle. That are you know hoping they get the right coach so they can move up like tennessee which is which is hired a. Oh you legend josh cycles. There he's got tall task at hand. But that's not that's not news we know that I just think he's good for the game. All creating new briberies. As i said new road trips new tailgating opportunities i think it expands the whole process and the bottom line is when oklahoma goes in a row they sell kick it alabama goes on the road. They sell tickets. They makes them worth tickets on the road and then the home team's got he knows. I'm sure that's plenty signs but i just think it's going to be good for the game. I think everybody's financially is gonna benefit more stadium ticket sales. You know we. We're lucky we're selling out that a lot of skills aren't selling out and they'd be a trip from texas or by oklahoma to their campus. Play their team will help them. Create more ticket sales which creates more revenue. And i'm going to come back to the texas part of this because i i know i asked you earlier but a everyone calls in from from all these schools that you've already mentioned mean the animus toward texas just never seems to end It's ironic though that oklahoma and texas fierce rivals came together Your your your thoughts on on the ou leadership coalescing with texas to come into the sec. Well it's surprising. Be honest with you because quite frankly texas is a lot like the richest kid in your high school class ball. They got the nicest car they were. The nicest hughes prettiest girlfriends and become a little bit bulletproof and texas over the years and that happened started happening in full bore Very when they got the Long more network and russell biven unfair advantage. Just gonna be bad and always done. Palma is when big titles year after year after year. actually longhorn network so it's just an attitudinal thing. It's just hard like somebody that feels so good about themselves. Sometimes the they'll know bring it's like wrestling villain their wrestler there. The the version of arresting bill in college football because people will fade our money and like the road trips do there. And all their due diligence the see texas loose and that's a great wrestling bill. Your money go off and you want the good guy. that'd be the bad guy. And i think that's kind of where we are very flimsy illustration i look at it that way. My background probably would They're just celebrate popular and but there sarkissian can use that to his advantage. Like us against the world scenario very switzer did that in in the seventies when he started recruiting so many great black athletes and oklahoma pain. The bad guys always black is or getting all the jobs and that's just what they were. Winning games win a national championship. So and the best players play no matter the skin color so i i think it's a texas law this themselves. They're not gonna find by anybody. Sec but they're gonna like it when the sec debate of sexist. We'll make some money. jim ross. Before you go you mentioned a couple of times. I you've you've got the You've had a front seat for some of the greatest moments in in wrestling. History their villain in your history Pastor present that you could look at and direct us toward to try to identify who texas. Oh well i probably started listening any restaurant. Any restaurant at the crowd in to believing it's all real And got stabbed every sad wrestler. Every sad wrestling villain is texas. People don't like them.

You be the one in control right. Sometimes it's easy to feel the deferential nece with with an expert And to feel like okay. I'll be lucky if they get to speak with me or if it's a therapist and they're the ones that are kind of the experts. What do i know. Hell no You're the expert in you but you're kind of offloading the responsibility for helping you to somebody else and so you got to interview them like you'd be hiring you know somebody for your business as poker player. You're hiring them for your poker business in the sense so so ask him questions and get a feel. The number one factor for outcome with a client is just trust right. I mean you will get at learning it. You don't learn from somebody that you don't trust period so you gotta feel you can trust them and that can mean different things for different people so you know in that kind of initial call that conversation you know again you make an estimate you may have a strong feeling one way or the other You know if it's if it's strong feeling four.

If a student doesn't trust the contents of a course then they're less likely to be successful in. Said course and yeah. It's just a thing that i've noticed happened over and over and over and over again and from the coaching side too. I would say that if you don't feel like you can trust your coach.

The patient feels better because they get to keep their tooth but they know they no longer have pain right right. But what you're saying. Is that just because you don't have pain doesn't mean there's not something that's lurking there just like my mother who is also a patient of yours. When she was diagnosed with breast cancer it was early. Knock on wood was caught early. Should incredible team of doctors to to work with her but even though she was early in stage one she didn't notice anything it was only because she felt a lump. There was no pain. There was nothing that was going on. So that the connection you're making is basically just because you're not having pain doesn't mean that there's not something that's a larger health issue to address there right which could have overall impact into future or causing in the future So can i ask.

Building Psychological Strength
The Psychological Principle To Keep in Mind When Giving Negative Feedback
"I want to highlight one psychological principle in particular to keep in mind when you have to give negative feedback and that principle is emotional intelligence now when we think about emotional intelligence. There's actually a bunch of components to it but five in particular but i'm in a highlight to today because these two when you really dig into them are two of the factors that really come into play. When we're in these difficult situations where were having to deliver a message that might not be well received or might come out of the blue for that team member. Who's on the receiving end. So i want to go through these two factors really quickly and talk about a couple of ways that you can strengthen yourself in these factors so factor number one again. This is one of the five factors that bubble up into what we would call emotional intelligence or e. q. The first factor that i want to highlight is self awareness so self awareness is our ability to have knowledge of our own emotions. Our own feelings to be mindful of our own behaviors. Our strengths and our weaknesses. And then understand how those are going to affect people around us now. Think about that right. The reason why giving negative feedback is difficult for us. Typically is because it creates an emotional reaction in us if we were perfectly comfortable or perfectly unemotional about it. It's unlikely that we would feel as i don't know of a better word to say. But itchy about giving negative feedback. It creates an emotional state and us. That feels uncertain. It feels maybe guilty. We feel just. This slew of negative mixed up emotions and being aware of that fact is really important particularly when we wanna make sure that we are behaving and acting in a way that moves us in the direction of our goal which means our goal is to deliver clear feedback. That helps that person improve.

"'cause i worried that the medical machine is so good with the pr. That if i have a friend who's thirty five years old and has a heart attack in eighteen months. They're not going to equate it to the vaccine. I just. I want to be able to be sure and hope that we can win this. Pr war because even when the damage starts to be done i worry that they're very good at skirting around it or blaming something else. People are so predisposed to not make the connection. It's like well. It couldn't be the vaccine. So what happened here. That's the kind of thinking we usually get. So what can you say about early reports. Maybe it is a little bit too early but some stuff is happening. Well i think i feel quite right the skepticism about the numbers any numbers. But we're seeing reading typically those that come from government and industry. Nothing is to be believed. And i'll give you an example of that and not with a fact that was bored out in nineteen ninety-six the act on. If you wanna watch the film which. I think he should go to nine hundred six act. Don't come what we reported in that is that the vaccine adverse events reporting system is known to ascertain less than one percent of true adverse reactions. It is geared up to do just that and the cdc did. A study commissioned a report from harvard. Pilgrim hobbit itself to look at ways of improving nassar payment to adverse events to vaccines which they did and they demonstrated that the system as it was was capturing less than one percent of adverse reaction. So when you hear that there have been x number of deaths from covid vaccine in the vaccine adverse events reporting system multiply that by a factor of at least one hundred to get the true number so we cannot believe what we are hearing. Because we're not getting on this numbers and so many of it is our estimates and modeling and really have no substance whatsoever. There is one factor though that concerns me as much if not more than they obvious adverse reactions to the vaccine and that is that what we do when we vaccinate with an imperfect vaccine. Let's say they claim it has ninety-three percent efficacy. Then what we doing is putting genetic selection pressure on the virus to mutate just like antibiotic resistant bacteria. If you have an antibiotic but does not kill one hundred percent of the bacteria but allows five percent to escape the dr resistant to the antibiotic and they will become the dominant strain. And you have in an antibiotic resistant. Bacteria and if that bacteria is more dangerous than the original then you'll making the situation worse was was and we're seeing exactly the same with vaccines vaccine is driving resistance. We are now seeing the emergence or variants of the virus resistant to the immunity produced by vaccine. And this is not this was always going to have industry look on this as a marvelous thing because what they advises bosses said this that we will have to make more vaccines against the new strains but they are responsible for creating the new strains and the thing about these viruses they can mutate today and it takes six months to produce a vaccine so you will nebot ahead of the virus. The virus will always win in the end. What they did with antibiotics after they became multi-resistant is the industry said.

They tell a few friends who do the same and boom all of a sudden. I hit the charts in their area of the world. So that's one factor. I think and i have data that sort of back set up too because sometimes when i hit the charts i see a spike in one city. And so it it just makes me feel like that's somewhat of a reasonable scenario. And sometimes the spike is higher than the number of episodes. I have out unless they're downloading multiple devices. I i feel like they have to be sharing it within their personal network or something to get this little localized spike. The second one is. I intentionally selected the least competitive category for my main pad podcast category and not the least selective overall but just the one that made the most sense for me in that case it was marketing which is ironic at this point. Because i've always felt like marketing is one of the weak spots in my enroll. Business toolbox so for me to be ranking fairly consistently in the marketing sectors for podcast.

And i'm like ooh what's that and then there's something happening which i enjoy the energy of that as opposed to coming home and then i'm home and then i'm like i wonder what my friends are doing right. I should reach out and then if they're busy than i'm like well i guess no one wants to hang out with me like i just can't see myself going through spiral. Well there's a weird sort of cultural negative pejorative veneer over the idea of an adult living by himself or herself and if you have roommates after a certain age frowned upon but were genetically engineered to live as a village in a community of people and my favorite you know some of my most favorite memories are being in a dorm or living in a group house. And can't we do that for our whole lives. Why is that why. Why would that be considered you know going awry as opposed to the preferred you know state of existence. I think and we've talked about this ad. Nauseam on this podcast. But i think i forget. I've i don't even remember what we talked about. Where growing up evangelical christian and then having my homosexuality like up route or like 'cause the deconstruction of an entire world through that. I was raised in in. This is how the world works. And then this one factor of my identity sort of like pulled the threat of the sweater and started to unravel the sturdiness of that world view. That has given me this like comfort in not doing what i'm supposed to do right like like being outside the paradigm. Yeah like you should be married by this age. You shouldn't live or should live with roommates. You should do this like i just have exercise. I've exercised that identity muscle been like well. That's not what i want to do. So i'm not going to do it

Nearly 3 million U.S. women have dropped out the labor force
"Not long after Donald Trump arrived at the White House, he disbanded and office that focused on challenges affecting women. President Biden is now resurrecting it. Women's rights groups hope this will help them make progress on things like paid family leave and affordable child care. Here's NPR's Melissa Block. The wish list on Biden's agenda for women is long restoring an expanding reproductive rights, combating gender based violence, reducing maternal mortality, and he's pitched a slew of economic proposals. Major structural disruption requires major structural change. And I feel like thinking big right now is exactly what we need to do. So now is the time That's the co chair of the Biden administration's new gender Policy Council. Jennifer Klein. You know we're seeing because of the health pandemic because of the economic crisis, and, in fact, take care giving crisis that's been layered on top of it. These are core issues core issues, Klein points out that air hitting women hard and especially women of color. Just look at the most recent jobs numbers. In December, women accounted for all 140,000 of the country's net lost jobs. One factor behind that, with so many schools and day care centers closed because of the coronavirus. Many women have had to drop out of the labor force. That's been disastrous, says Joan Williams, director of the Center for Work Life Law at the University of California, Hastings. Mother's already We're at the breaking point in the United States. I mean, we already had a choc your system that was basically a Rube Goldberg machine and the coronavirus brought that machine crashing down. Williams says. What she wants the Biden administration to do is to recognize that Just as we don't expect workers to get to work without physical infrastructure like bridges and roads. We can't expect workers to get to work without a care infrastructure. What would that care Infrastructure look like for Williams? That would mean subsidized neighborhood based child care, paid family leave Universal, pre K and $15 an hour minimum wage, especially during the pandemic. Single moms have had to choose between putting food on the table and leaving young Children home alone. Now. Part of the reason is because the minimum wages so low that there is no way on God's green Earth that those moms can pay for childcare. The paid caregivers are also reeling from the crunch. President Biden highlighted this when he announced his covert 19 relief plan last month. Let's make sure caregivers mostly women, women of color immigrants. Have the same pay indignity that they deserve. Advocates like I Jen poo, director of the National Domestic Workers Alliance, are heartened by what they're hearing from Biden. Her group represents workers, including nannies, home care workers and housekeepers, actually focusing on how we're going to make Thies jobs, good jobs for the 21st century. That you can take pride in and earn a living wage with benefits. That is a really big breakthrough. Conservatives, though, are leery of an agenda that carries a hefty price tag and they warn, will lead to crushing government regulations. Charmaine Yost is vice president of the Institute for Family Community and Opportunity at the Heritage Foundation. My biggest concern is that all of the proposals that I'm hearing coming from their side of things inevitably seem to come back to big government intervention in government programs. As for raising the minimum wage in the midst of a pandemic, when many businesses are suffering so badly if there were a time that you could create, that would be the perfect time to not Raise the minimum wage. This would be it with such a slim Democratic majority in Congress. Biden's agenda could have a tough time gaining traction. But Fatima Goss Graves, who heads the National Women's Law Center, is undaunted. Her group has issued an ambitious list of 100 demands for Biden's 1st 100 days. Basically, what we're asking this administration and Congress to do is effectively walk into gum. We need them to both undo things that have been harmful and have been Holding this country back and launch us forward in a way that we're stronger for it, Graves adds. This president doesn't have the luxury of coasting in Melissa Block NPR news

Super Bowl LV: A Broadcast Like No Other
"So richard. It's obviously been a weird year for the nfl and for nfl broadcasts. Where did the league land in terms of numbers this season. Yeah i think you're being you're being polite when you use the word weird unprecedented get your thesaurus out of the league. Did i think well given the unprecedented nature of the pandemic most of the sports not all but most of the sports and particularly most of the jewish events. You're fine around the masters your final stanley cup finals. They were all down multiple double digits. The nfl was down single digits and in some areas. If you really want to of go deep inside the numbers like there were a couple of windows that we're up from the previous year. The conference championship ratings. Were pretty good. The bucks packers game drew forty four point seven million that beat the previous years early game and the bills chiefs forty one point eight million. I think a little bit down from the previous years lake game so to me given that we're in a pandemic i think that's a win so in terms of the raw numbers. The nfl was down. But i think in terms of the larger narrative. I think they had an incredibly successful year. Well the nfl got more or less a dream. Matchup right in terms of quarterbacks at this year super bowl. Tom brady going for yet. Another super bowl at age. Forty three against patrick mahomes arguably the league's biggest star and the reigning super bowl. Mvp what impact you expect to that quarterback match up to have on super bowl viewership this year. The one thing i would say about super bowl viewership is it's not one factor that determines the viewership. You're certainly going to get a base of around one hundred million people to start. Who will watch this game. Twenty fifteen i believe is the highest viewership close at one hundred fifteen million people. I believe for the patriots. Seahawks that the kind of amazing ending so the game has for the most part over the last decade. You've seen it cross over one hundred million mark so you're working with that base and in terms of what factors sort of will come into play on this. Well you have the factor of a very very enticing matchup between the chiefs and the bucks and particularly patrick mahomes versus. Tom brady the greatest quarterback of each of their generations. You're getting a little bit of like a lebron versus jordan. Kind of feel to it. So i think that would lead to a pop in viewership one of the realities when it comes to the super bowl is weather. What's the weather like around the country on that sunday. The weather as you know on the east coast They've been ravaged by a snowstorm. So the likelihood is you probably get more people at home because of that. And that could add to pop in viewership terms of the downsides no kind of community viewing you're gonna have far less people watching in bars. Far less people watching in restaurants far less people watching. Let's say at airports my senses without making a definitive guests. I think this year's viewership will be last year which was just right around the hundred million mark. The fact is in our country. There are very few things that i would call communal at this point particularly in our polarized times but the superbowl happens to be one of them. I mean if you can think of something that will bring a hundred million americans together other than the super bowl. I can't at this moment. Outside of voting. Think off the top of my head. What does it

A New Study Says Money Really Can Buy Happiness? Not Exactly, Says the Author
"So alison what's up. Well bro as the old adage goes. Money can't buy happiness. I mean just look. At the twenty. Ten princeton study by economist angus deaton and psychologist daniel. Carlson they found that happiness goes up. The more you make put it plateaus once you get to about seventy five thousand in income doesn't matter how much you're gonna make after that. Your happiness just really doesn't improve that much the red pepper takeaways from this. Dare i say landmark. Study one being that once you have the basic necessities in life more doesn't make you much happier and the other takeaway being that the wealthier you are the more you compare yourself to the joneses and are ultimately left jealous and wanting to keep up. I mean look at richard corey. He owned one half of this whole town but was he happy. No now don't you feel better. So enjoy working in his factory but then warns matthew killingsworth had to come along with his study justice last month and restore that feeling of glueck schmierer's the germans have a word for feeling bad about the good fortune of others. Killingsworth collected one point seven million data points from more than thirty three thousand participants who provided in the moment snapshots of their feelings during daily life. So essentially it was an app it would ping them throughout the day and ask them. How are you feeling right now. And this measured what's called experienced wellness. He also asked people generally how happy they thought they were their overall happiness and apparently that's called evaluative being anyway. So what did he find. Did he confirm that. Once you look at people with income over seventy five thousand dollars happiness plateaus and you just don't get that same happy bang for your buck. No matter how much money you make well as it turns out you continue to get happier as your income rises and the study didn't find any sort of plateau and happiness after a certain level of income neither in evaluated or experienced wellbeing. Why is this well. The researcher believes that higher earners are happier in part because of an increased sense of control over their life to quote him. He says when you have more money you have more choices about how to live your life. You can likely see this. In the pandemic people living paycheck to paycheck who lose their job. Might need to take the first available job to stay afloat. Even if it's one they dislike able with a financial cushion can wait for one. That's a better fit across decisions. Big and small having more money gives a person more choices and a greater sense of autonomy and quote. So what's the lesson. go out there and make as much money as you can. Because your happiness will just keep skyrocketing actually no because the study also found that people who equate having money to success are actually kinda miserable. They often work long hours and are stressed out about their time. Whoops there goes your sense of autonomy ultimately the takeaway from the study is that money is just one factor happiness and while having money certainly beats not having money. It's ultimately about the sense of control power and autonomy that money affords you and a bunch of other factors too. I mean i'll bet. Richard cory didn't get a lot of hugs growing up so bro. Go hug

"one factor" Discussed on ITN Live
"Out here than i do Yeah there you go Speaking of the past. I just got an email right before the show with my banking institution saying you need to act a to. Fa say the word are hold on. Hold on why you scroll down to actor authentication. As pools himself off camera you know bring is back on camera better bring back on two factor authentication the ability to have a different an extra layer of of security as you access your account. You one factor. Is you type in your password at the site and then the two factor would be where the site actually send you a text message to a known device like your email account or to your mobile phone and it gives you a Gives you a code that you type into the site to double authenticator so that.

Cohorts wells he can cooperate. My stories of of the days of jobs jobs two factor authentication is all. You ran into steve jobs and say i might be out the door. He wasn't there that day but But he was. He was part of the organization at the same time. So yeah he you know he. He's one of these smarter minds when the engineering minds back in those days so we had to get back to security and Ransomware we talked about that but multi factor authentication to It just makes sense especially when you're dealing with financial institutions If you've got an account with whatever whatever your bank is turn on two factor authentication so it texas you back so wells fargo or be avai or whomever you're banking is knows that it's you trying to log in at and especially if you're trying to access from a different site or from a different location if you're not at all device exactly a different device if you're out on vacation somewhere and you're using your friend's phone or your friend's laptop or something and you're trying to get into your account to see something doesn't know what you but when you authenticate to your mobile device with that particular code than that extra layer of security so so that that's really really critical really critical for sure.

Algorithms for vaccine distribution have a weakness: the people behind them
"To deal with the massive logistical problem of distributing covid nineteen vaccines the federal government and some states are turning to private companies to create algorithms for prioritizing shipments. Some hospital systems like george washington in dc and stanford in palo alto also created their own software systems to prioritize which healthcare workers. Get vaccines i. In stanford's case we now know that process went wrong prioritizing doctors and administrators mostly working remotely residents working directly with patients every day. And we wondered is vaccine problem algorithms are meant to solve or are officials leading algorithms. Take the blame for built. In inequality karen how has reported on this for the mit technology. Review i would say that the stanford them not in fact that complex and there's actually been an argument within the hour them's research community about whether or not if we could even call it an algorithm because essentially it was just a set of rules that were codified into numbers and for many of the hospitals that i got in touch with after this story broke at stanford they used just a more simple rule set they usually just consider one factor which is the actual department of the staff what stanford was trying to do. Not just factor in one thing. They were trying to factor in. I guess. Three things age department and prevalence of exposure but the issue is. They didn't do it in a way that was craft. And so they're really kind of two lessons that we can learn from the stanford case the first is that the way that the distribution allocation was decided There were no residents at the decision making table. And then the second thing we can learn is once. The algorithm was rolled out. There was no mechanism for people to provide feedback so on top of lake. Having this thing that was somewhat flawed audit. They didn't really test it. They disorder like here. You go now shots. Exactly the issue is that they didn't have people who are impacted by this algorithm at the decision making table and they didn't have ways to then quickly itera an update the over them once they realized it was flawed is vaccine allocation of problem that algorithms are meant to solve or will it becomes something that you know leaders might get to hide behind when inequities inevitably happen. A lot of times. People believe that when an algorithm is involved it somehow is this other entity that is completely detached from human decision. Making and the algorithm is suddenly unbiased even though it was programmed by people and what i sort of try to hammer home to people when i talk about this is algorithm. The decision making is human decision making and so some of the language that stanford's leadership started using after this happened was the algorithm was really complicated. It was the algorithms fall is a misnomer. it's just. It doesn't really acknowledge the fact that they were the ones literally. Codifying these priorities into code. Karen how is a reporter for the mit technology review and now for some related links. Venturebeat has a nice piece about the federal vaccine distribution process. And how it's been contracted out to one of the trump administration's favorite private companies. The data mining company here which has other federal contracts under its belt of course pollen tear and the us department of health and human services have created a software platform that prioritizes shipments of the vaccines various states and then tracks the rollout and the vaccination process. Now look this is like obviously how you would do something this big in the computer age but since it's ultimately taxpayer money funding this process. It seems like it should be easy enough to tell us all what exact data goes into making these decisions. You know these big public health decision. It's but we don't know it sounds pretty cool on defense. Dot gov how they describe this tiberius platform using a big database of non personally identifiable information tiberius. Run some numbers every week. Determine which states should get vaccines ship it out. Lickety-split defense dot com even notes that quote tiberius can provide zip code by zip code view of priority populations including frontline workers nursing home residents which is always how computers are supposed to work like magic with pristine data. That's regularly updated in fully comprehensive except that not every zip code gets counted or track very well especially in four or black and brown neighborhoods or on reservations or places where lots of frontline workers might live and where covid nineteen is killing. More people also possibly health departments all over. The country are totally underfunded and reporting data with fax machines. If at all and again we actually don't know much about what. Data is being used to make these determinations at the federal level. But what we do know is it's not going great and lots of states are saying they're getting less vaccine and they expected to get an inequality is already showing up and people are frustrated and skeptical and it just seems like the best thing everyone can do is again be as transparent as possible about how it all works and i'm trying to start off. Twenty twenty one hopeful. So hey maybe if we keep talking about it. It'll happen
