What do you really want, Megatron?
What anyone wants, human.
To go home.
Yeah, that'd be all right with me, too.
Megatron, he's after something Yeager has.
Something they need to help find this weapon.
We're gonna let those Decepticons do our dirty work.
On my go, they'll be given Yeager's hideout coordinates.

FIFA 18 | HOW TO TELL WHAT TIER OF PLAYER YOU HAVE PACKED IN FIFA 18 - Duration: 5:15.
yo guys what's going on Jamesx here and welcome back to a FIFA video I haven't
done one of these in the while have I okay that's kind of a rhetorical question
because you can't actually speak to me but anyway guys yeah I'm back with another
fifa 18 video and i may do some more of these but I'm really not too sure yet
however I thought you know what I'll try and upload this video no I won't try I
will upload this video but either way what I'm going to go through this video is like
the FIFA 18 packs basically and how you can notice or kind of tell what player
you're gonna get in the pack before it completely opened and you see who's in
the pack and and who your main player is you normally pops up. In fifa 17
may remember the walkouts were introduced the flares you can tell and the little
black screen at the start if you can't tell if it was a walk out or it wasn't
however this year I've got some things which allow you to notice whether it's
gonna be a walk out it's gonna be a decent player to come in not very good
player or just a shocking plan so hopefully you guys do enjoyed a bit if
you do please do leave a like subscribe for new art in all stops gonna upload a
couple of my social medias so going I've never snapchat the code would be beside
me right now or just type in James X chat no space they'll be on the screen
but yeah you can do that also follow me on the Instagram that will all be down
below anyway just feel pretty much to me when I vote I'll try and ask some more
future questions you may have or just questions in general I love to
chat some more of you but even when it's getting to the video I'm gonna show you
all the clips to start with and I will leave the people who want to get the
videos wrong because it's not actually my footage so that links will be down
below for like the original videos yeah like I said let's get to the video I'm
gonna show you all the face of begin with now going friend talk about
but then the footage I just show you consists of a nun we're a pretty low
rare a medium rare were like an 85 right here and then walk out plan you may
notice like a difference already however I'm just gonna tell you for it and walk
you through it I kind of give it insight of what you need to spot and look out
for if you wanna they will play again however if you don't I don't know why
you on this video morning so we're gonna start with the number and the number is
pretty basic to see I mean this is not something you really should be looking
out for because it's not a plague you want to get however the norm a literally
consists of no transitions and of course it's going to be transitions but I mean
in comparison to the bigger players so first off you need to look for a flat
his no flare you know it's gonna be an hombre or someone just below that
standard and the second thing you need to look for is if the balls dude calm
down by this point you have probably seen if it's gonna be rare or non rare
if you did miss the Flay's that's what you should be looking out for however
that's literally from the non where this one it's pretty obvious to notice and
it's not really one you want to look out for
cuz who wants a non rare card like this so now we have the red card this is
giving out at the low rate is where maybe the state is I need is not just 39
is the 80s 81 82 around that area maybe even 83 depending if there are walk out
or knocking out still varies I'm not exactly too sure watch it consist I'm
applying to be a walk out so if you know please do let me know down below either
way when you open the pack you'll see a flash phone the homing you know it's
going to be as where player be don't know what type of RAM it's going to be
it's not the same as last year maybe 17 where the biggest player it's made a
better player in this case from the footage I've gathered so I it doesn't
really make it different so you should be looking out for the size of play you
should just be looking if there isn't and if there is a blow in this incident
you will be getting a Bratz player but you don't know what right yeah so let me
go to the next bit I'm talking for houses know what making play you're
going to get all roughly the vibrator right then guys so now we'll get into
the big boys to getting into the eighty-five right it's maybe some 86 is
depending the fair walk out or not however if you want to know you're
getting a walk out or not this is why you need to look closely so when you get
a big player the boss will come down like you always see when you get a big
player they'll come down and this would be the same whether it's gonna be a walk
out or just a decent red player however when the card is flush are and you're
waiting to see if the players gonna walk out or not you need to have a look if
there's gonna be any flames or fire just behind the card if there isn't that
means you have not got a walk out player however if you have got flares and fire
and all that good stuff behind the card it means you are getting a walk out
player which in some cases and usually it's better than normal we're playing
and again right think I so hope you've enjoyed the video I'm not too sure if
this is happening too much however if it has please you leave a like on the video
go down below and let me know if there's any ways that you can actually identify
what play you're going to get before the park opens don't be sick if you could
you can subscribe is where I'll be awesome because hopefully I've got some
good content coming soon but nevertheless guys like up skyvan we'll
see you next time peace out

September Wrap Up Part 1 - Duration: 14:52.
Hi everyone. I'm rincey and this is rincey reads. So i've read a lot of books
this month. Over Labor Day weekend, I got a little bit sick and I couldn't really
look at screens without getting like a massive headache. So I basically just
ended up reading the entire weekend and I read like a book a day because you
know it's the weekend and I didn't have any plans and so I was just sitting
around reading. So to keep my own sanity when it comes to doing my August,
nope September, wrap-up. I keep saying August. It's September. I'm breaking up my
wrap up into two parts. I usually don't do this and I usually just let my wrap
ups be like 15 to 20 minutes long but I really think I'm gonna have like a lot
books to wrap up this month. So I figured I would just get some of them out of the
way. So the first book that I finished was Sing Unburied Sing by Jesmyn Ward.
I was technically reading this at the end of August. If you watched my August
wrap-up, you would have seen me talk about it a little bit and I did a full
video about this over on the book riot channel which I will link to up in the
cards. This book is fantastic. It's so well done. I gave it a 4 out of 5 stars.
I loved it so, so, so much. It takes place in Mississippi and you're basically
following this family. You go back and forth between a couple of different
points of view but there's two characters who you mainly follow. One of
them is Jo Jo who's 13 years old and his mother Leone. Leone is a very
inconsistent mother figure in Jo Jo's life. Jo Jo and his sister mainly live
with their grandparents. The mother has had like drug issues, the father's in jail.
And yeah, you are just following this family over the course of like a
weekend but you get a lot of really great history about the family and
whatnot. And Jesmyn Ward is just a fantastic, fantastic writer. If you
haven't read anything by her yet you definitely should start picking up her books.
She just does a really great job of talking about like poor southern
black people in a way that doesn't demonize them or glorify them or
anything. Like these characters are extremely flawed and make huge mistakes
but you also just feel so bad for them in their situation. The relationships are
complicated, the characters are complicated. It's fantastic. But I just
thought it was beautiful and heartbreaking and it was one of those
books that I couldn't stop thinking about and it caused so much like tension
and anxiety in me cause of the pain that these characters go through.
it's beautiful and heartbreaking and I highly recommend it. Definitely one
of my favorite books I've read so far this year. The next book that I finished
is girl waits with gun by Amy Stewart. This is a historical fiction mystery
book. This is the first book in a series. I think the third book just came out in
September. I had been hearing relatively positive buzz about this book so I
decided I would pick this one up from the library since the third book just
came out figuring that if I liked this one I could keep going with the series.
And I did like this one. I didn't love it but I enjoyed it. You are following the
Kopp sisters who are these three sisters who basically live on their own in their
home and sort of like the more rural part of England. They come into town one
day, they're riding in their carriage and they get hit by a car. And then when
they like confront the guy who hits their carriage, they're basically like
you have to pay for the repairs and whatnot and he basically refuses. And so
the sisters are forced to deal with this man. And the oldest sister's named
Constance and she's the one that you're mainly following in this book. She like
confronts him tries to get him to pay up, pay the bill
that she has sent to them. She quickly comes to find out that the guy who hit
them is not a very good person basically. He like inherited this Factory
and he and his friends are basically just like a gang of awful people. So yeah,
this story just mainly follows like these sisters. You see what their life is
like and how their lives have gotten to where they are today. They live like
mostly isolated off in the country and you learn to find out why. Yeah it was
just like a fun, enjoyable read it felt more like historical fiction than
mystery but there is a slight mystery element to it. There is something that's
happening with one of the people who work at the factory as well. So you
follow that storyline. Constance Kopp is a really like just fun character. She sort
of has like an Elizabeth Bennett type attitude towards her. She's very like
stubborn. She doesn't fall into very traditional feminine roles and she is a
I think in her thirties at this, I would assume or maybe like upper 20s and
she has like no desire or interest or anything in getting married and you
learn a lot about that as well. But there's also like this sheriff character
in here who is, I think is completely adorable. I have a little bit of a
crush on the sherrif. But yeah it's like a little bit of a longer book so it's very like
slow-paced. Don't expect like a high paced mystery out of this at all but if
you like character-driven stories I think that you'll like this one.
I definitely am planning on picking up the rest of the books in the series but just
because I find the sisters like absolutely delightful. I think I gave
this one a three and a half out of five stars. The next book that I finished
technically is The Brothers Karamazov by Dostoevsky. I have a video up on that.
I will link it above. Spoilers though. I have mixed feelings about that book. I've said
that every time I've talked about that book. And if you want to know why then you can
actually check out those videos. I will link to the part one of my Dostoevsky
videos just because I think if you watch that one you'll get a better sense
of my feelings about the book and the type of book it is without getting
overly spoiled. The second video in that discussion goes very much into spoilers.
And then I finished since we fell by Dennis Lehane. Dennis Lehane is probably
best well known for his books like Shutter Island and Mystic River which
were both made into movies. I like Dennis Lehane but I'm not like a huge Dennis
Lehane fan. But I got this one from book of the month and I decided to just like
give it a try. It's been getting like kind of mixed reviews which I completely
understand. But I really liked it. I read it all in one day which is partly
because I was sick, but partially because it was really gripping. Dennis
Lehane is really great at that cliffhanger chapter situation where he
ends this chapter in a way that's just like well now I have to read the next
chapter to figure out what the heck is going on. The synopsis of this book while accurate
I think is incomplete. You are mainly following this character named Rachel
and you follow her from like childhood through what is basically like current
day and seeing what's happening in her life. So the first part of this book is
all about Rachel growing up. You see a lot about her relationship with her
mother and you find out that she had no idea like who her father is. And so a lot
of her childhood and even her adulthood is defined by the fact that she has no
idea like who her dad is. Her mother passes away when she's I
don't know if she was a teenager in college at that point when the mother
passes away. But you know she passes away without ever telling Rachel like who her
dad is. And that becomes sort of like this huge
crux of Rachel's life. And then you sort of like jump for it a little bit and
see Rachel as an adult. She ends up becoming a journalist. She lives in
Boston and she ends up working for like one of the major news outlets in Boston
like TV news outlets. Like the major it's like a major NBC or ABC or something
along those lines affiliate. And she is doing great, she's succeeding. But then
something happens and she basically has like a meltdown on air and then her life
sort of like falls apart from there. And then you sort of see like the next part
of her life. That's sort of like the basic storyline but there are a lot of
things that happen in this book. This is a very like plot driven book, 100%. And
the way that it's written it very much feels like a movie. Like I could visually
see everything that was going on in this story which was just really fun. So if
you need like a fast-paced page-turner this is a great book to pick up.
If you're looking for something more like character driven, something with
character development, do not pick up this book. The characters in here, I don't
want to say that they're flat because they're not flat. But they, the way the
characters develop doesn't necessarily make the most sense like logically.
There's a lot of sort of like insane things that happen in this book where
you, you sort of have to suspend disbelief and just kind of be willing to
go along for the ride. If you want something that's like super realistic
just something that feels like it would actually happen in real life, don't read
this book. But if you just want something that's just fun and crazy
I do think you should read this book. So the way I described this book on
Goodreads is it feels like that metaphor of where if you want to cook a frog you
don't just like drop it in boiling water. What you have to do is like put the frog
in tepid water then slowly notch up the degrees until it's in boiling water so
the frog doesn't realize what you're doing. That's what this book felt like
because it starts of as-- I went into this completely blind. I didn't even like
read the synopsis or anything like that. So it starts off with this as a story of
Rachel not understanding her dad or not knowing who her dad is.
And then Dennis Lehane sort of like kicks up the degree every couple of
chapters. And then by the time you're in like the last section of this book, it's
bonkers. Like the stuff that happens at the end of this book is completely
bonkers. And I think it will turn off a lot of people.
But I was kind of just in for the ride and I didn't mind that it was completely
bonkers. So definitely know that going into it.
Again, it's not realistic whatsoever but it is kind of fun and sometimes you just
need books like that. So yeah, I gave this book a 4 out of 5 stars which is
probably an over-rating if I'm being completely honest. But I haven't read a
really fun bonkers book in a long time and I was kind of really just enjoying
this. All right, the next book that I finished is on a completely different
end of the spectrum and that's Orhan's inheritance by Aline Ohanasian. This is
mostly a historical fiction book I would say. And it's beautiful and
heartbreaking and oh man, this this one like crushed me when I was reading it.
But it's so beautiful and so well done. I cannot recommend this book highly enough.
Definitely one of my favorites of the year so far. I actually think I'm going
to do a full review of this one in October. So like look out for that. But I
will tell you right now I gave this one a four out of five stars.
It starts off following this character named Orhan whose grandfather passes
away and then he returns to Turkey where his grandfather lived for the funeral
and also to find out what the grandfather is doing in as will. And it
turns out that he has left the house to this woman that he and his father and
anyone else in the family has never heard of before. And so he travels to the
United States to both inform the person that his grandfather has left the family
home to this random person and to try to like see if he can convince her to not
take it or to give it back to the family since the father and his aunt live there.
But also just to find out like who this person is and why the grandfather
left the house to this woman. And the story just sort of unfolds from there.
And yeah, it's beautiful and heartbreaking, like I said. You, it talks a
lot about the Armenian Genocide which is something that personally I don't know
that much about but I learned a lot about it through this book. And yeah if
you are into historical fiction, you should definitely pick this one up.
I think it's pretty underrated in terms of like the number of people who have read
it or talked about it. Yeah I will be doing a full review on this I believe in
October. Alright and then the final book that I'm going to talk about in this
video is Startup. This was an interesting reading experience. I have
complicated feelings about this one as well. In the story you are following a
couple of different characters. The first one is this guy named Mac who is
this founder of an app that's basically like a meditation type app. Just think of
him as like a Mark Zuckerberg type. The other one is this girl named Katya who
works for like a tech crunch type website as a journalist. And the other person is
this woman named Sabrina who works at the startup but is married to the editor
of Katya who works at the news organization. Yeah when I started this
book I was really enjoying it because this book perfectly encapsulates what
it's like to work in a start-up or to cover a start-up or to work as a
journalist in the modern age. This book felt like super real to me and I was
just like oh man it's like you think a little bit too close to home. But I feel
like it never really goes deeper than that. It's a relatively short book which
i think is partially a hinderance. Like this book could have been expanded out
quite a bit. And basically what happens is Katya gets a scoop about a story that
could potentially take down this startup. And there's a lot of really interesting
discussions in here in terms of like gender dynamics in like the tech
industry or even in news industries. There's a lot of really interesting
beginnings of stories I believe in here. There's this whole like storyline in
here that has to deal with like sexual harassment and power dynamics and like
dating your bosses and things along those lines. But I feel like the peak of
that story happens at the end. Like it takes a really really long time for
everything to build and then it gets to the peak and then it-- the book is over.
Like it doesn't resolve, there's no real resolution in here. There's even some
like borderline harassment stuff that happens really quickly in the story that
isn't even like really addressed or resolved by the end. And obviously like
that's sometimes how real life is but for a book that's very disappointing.
So yeah, I feel like she spends a lot of time talking about the way startup
culture is, the way that these startups all have like these crazy snack rooms
and they provide all of these weird socials and how tech people relate to
each other and startup culture all relates to each other and just like the
weirdness dating for Millennials these days.
But I feel like it doesn't really go beyond that, which was kind of
disappointing. So. And this also feels like a book that's very like 2017.
I can't imagine that it's going to age well whatsoever. But I think that it is a
really great like snapshot into this period of time. It'll be interesting to
see like in ten years if someone picked up this book how they would view it.
So yeah, in the end I think I gave this book a 3 out of 5 stars. It's not bad but it
doesn't resolve very well and I think that the things that it has to say while
it is very like correct and on the nose about it, I don't think there's anything
new being said here that you can't read about in other like tech-type articles
or analysis or anything like that. Yeah I don't know it's a very like narrow point
of view and I just wish it was like longer and expanded on the world or
expanded on its opinions a little bit better. So yeah, if it sounds interesting
to you, maybe get it from the library. I can't recommend it extremely highly
though. So yeah that's everything that I have to talk about in this video. I will
obviously be talking about the rest of the books that I read in the month of
September next month or next week. Feel free to leave a comment down below
letting me know what you thought of any of these books if you've read any of
them. Or if you have any questions about any of them, definitely leave that down
in the comments section as well. So yeah, that's all I have for now and
thanks for watching.

Conlon Nancarrow's Impossible Piano - Duration: 6:30.
hey, welcome to 12tone! lots of composers write difficult music.
Rachmaninoff is famous for his technically demanding compositions, as are Chopin, Liszt,
and many others.
Sorabji's Opus clavicembalisticum is a four hour piece for solo piano filled with blazingly
fast, wide-ranging counterpoint, and it's so hard to play that Sorabji eventually banned
public performances of it, declaring that "no performance at all is vastly preferable
to an obscene travesty."
but it's still possible to play it.
like, a human being could do it, if they were good enough at piano.
the same can't be said for the works of Conlon Nancarrow.
Nancarrow was a mexican composer in the 20th century who became fascinated with the idea
of polyrhythms.
we've talked about these before, and they're a fairly simple concept: basically, you just
have two different parts playing a different number of beats in the same amount of time.
like, if you have one part playing two beats per bar (bang) and another playing three per
bar (bang) you can put them together to make what's called a hemiola, (bang) or a 3:2 polyrhythm.
another way to look at that, though, is as two parts playing at different tempos. that
is, instead of changing how many beats they play in each bar, we could just change how
long a bar is.
in our hemiola, we could say that the faster part is playing three bars of music in the
time it takes the slower one to play two, meaning that its tempo is 50% faster.
Nancarrow's interest in this was inspired in part by a book called New Musical Resources,
by Henry Cowell.
Cowell was interested in the relationship between rhythm and pitch: after all, a note
is just a soundwave with a specific frequency, and in a sense, a frequency is just a really,
really fast tempo. this A hits your ears 220 times per second, and if you play a drum beat
220 times per second (bang) it… well, it sounds similar, at least.
not as pretty, but it proves the point: pitches are kinda just really fast rhythms, and Cowell
wondered if the same principle could work in the other direction.
are rhythms just really slow pitches, and if so, can we build a sort of rhythmic harmony
out of them?
well, in order to do that, we need to look at how intervals work, starting with something
called the harmonic series.
this is just a list of all the multiples of a given fundamental frequency.
so if we started with 220, its harmonics would include 440, 660, 880, 1100, and so on.
this gives us a predictable set of frequency ratios, and those ratios are how we define
different intervals.
for instance, the octave, our strongest interval, is a doubling in frequency.
the perfect fifth is a ratio of 3:2, and it's only slightly less stable.
then the perfect fourth is 4:3, the major third is 5:4, and so on. and since frequencies
are fast tempos, couldn't we just slow those intervals down into polyrhythms?
well, yes and no.
Cowell did indeed lay out a framework for what he called tempo scales, where the relationships
between multiple tempos played at once are used in much the same way we would use pitches
and intervals.
for instance, the hemiola (bang) is a 3:2 ratio, and the perfect fifth (bang) is also
a 3:2 ratio, so we can treat them as basically the same thing, just at very different speeds.
we can even create chords: the three notes of a major triad (bang) have the ratio 4:5:6,
and rhythms with the same tempo ratio (bang) could be thought of as almost rhythmic triads.
but Cowell also recognized that writing complex pieces based on these ideas would ultimately
be kinda pointless, because the precision necessary in order to accurately capture the
subtle rhythmic relationships his system needed were beyond what humans were capable of.
even the best musicians aren't entirely consistent in their meter, and small variations could
completely ruin what Cowell was trying to build.
imagine trying to faithfully switch from 150 beats per minute to 168. computers could do
it, of course, but since Cowell's book was first published in 1930, that wasn't an option.
instead, he left the idea with this offhand comment: "the almost insurmountable complexity
of this procedure is now sufficiently evident.
it would be interesting, though, to hear such rhythms cut on a player-piano roll." and that
is where Nancarrow comes back into the picture.
player-pianos were a popular device in the early 20th century that were, in effect, pianos
that could play themselves.
you programmed them by punching holes into long strips of paper that you then ran over
detectors, and whenever a hole passed over, the piano played the corresponding note.
this allowed clubs, bars, and even homes to enjoy piano music without needing to find
a competent piano player: the instrument would take care of that itself.
for a while, that was all the player-piano was: a replacement for a human musician, playing
basically the same things a human would.
Nancarrow, though, recognized much greater potential.
you see, human players have lots of physical limitations.
for instance, most people have no more than 10 fingers, which means that precisely playing
more than 10 notes at once is pretty much impossible.
we're also limited in range: an adult human hand can only stretch to a little over an
octave, and since we only have two hands, we can't play notes all across the keyboard
simultaneously.
there's other problems, like speeds and complexities too advanced for even highly competent humans,
but player pianos have no such issues.
want an 8-octave power chord?
(bang) it can do that.
want a 64th-note run at 200 beats per minute?
(bang) it can do that too.
but most importantly, do you want to be able to precisely subdivide very complex polyrhythms?
because as long as you put the holes in the right places, it can do that just fine.
this gave Nancarrow the tools he needed to begin exploring Cowell's rhythmic intervals
in earnest.
he started simple: many of his early works stick to fairly straightforward ratios. for
instance, his Study no.
13 is based on a ratio of 5:4, effectively a major third.
but Nancarrow quickly tired of those sorts of simplistic designs and set out to do more
and more complicated things.
his Study no.
37, for instance, has 12 different tempos, each representing a different note of Cowell's
tempo scale.
each voice plays the same basic melody, but at a different speed and starting on a different
note.
this creates a somewhat surprising effect where, at first, it feels like you're hearing
a single chord across all the voices, and then as they drift further and further apart
in time, it starts to sound more and more chaotic. if you want to check that out, I
put a link in the description.
he also experimented with irrational and even transcendental number ratios, which aren't
just impossible for humans to play, they're impossible to even count.
Nancarrow was largely uninterested in harmony and melody, viewing them as merely a means
of exploring his rhythmic ideas.
he once said in an interview that, "For me, chords are just blocks of notes I can use
to make a rhythm."
many of his pieces used the same melody in all the different tempos, to better emphasizes
the distinctions between them.
after all, if the rhythms of the melodies are different, it's much harder to tell that
they're also being played at different speeds.
Nancarrow's work is a great example of what happens when we're willing to completely reexamine
our assumptions about what music is and how it works, and while you may or may not enjoy
listening to it, you have to admit, it's completely unique.
oh, and if you want to learn more about Nancarrow, Adam Neely's done a video about him too.
I'll link to that in the description.

دیابت نوع دو و تغذیه ی گیاهی با دکتر هانیه محمدی ☆ انارسبز ☆ Reversing type 2 Diabetes: Veganisim - Duration: 22:23.
Hi.. hi...
This is Gelareh with Anaare Sabz (The Green Pomegranate) with another episode of the Vegan Chat Quest.
The diabetes is a disease that gets more epidemic every day and not only recognized as the 7th killer
disease on the global scale, but it also contributes to emerging other diseases that are detrimental to the health.
Our dear guest of today's show is Dr. Hanieh Mohammadi who in the last 10 years had some researches
in Iran, Switzerland and Canada on modeling of the underlying mechanisms of cardiovascular diseases
and their effect on the brain function.
We're going to get to know her more and she will explain
elaborately and we will discuss the type 2 diabetes, a disease which to my knowledge, unfortunately,
many of us may directly or indirectly confront with it.
Stay tuned.
Hi, dear Hanieh!
Hi, dear Gelareh!
Thanks a lot for accepting my invitation for a chat and I appreciate for the past few months which we
were working on this show together and our dear friends could benefit
from your up to date information and help.
Thank you to you dear Gelareh, as you accompanied me to be able to express the latest and the recent
research about the type 2 diabetes together.
In order for our dear friends get to know you better,
could you tell us about yourself, how did you become vegan, for how many years and tell us a bit of your story.
Dear Gelareh, I have made a committed to this nutritional routine since 4 years ago when
I was working on disease mechanism and found more scientific grounds to nutrition facts,
this led me to change my thoughts on my diet.
To begin with , it might not be a bad idea to first explain what the type 2 diabetes is,
which affected a large population globally?
Yes, the type 2 diabetes is a metabolic disease in which the person's blood glucose level rises up.
In order to prevent it, conversion of glucose to energy is essential, to do this, we need a hormone called Insulin.
In diabetes type 2, maybe, either insulin production isn't sufficient or there is a sufficient
amount of insulin available, but cells do not have the proper sensitivity to the insulin or even both and
to be honest, the closest example that we can name to this disease and how it works, would be the
termite and how it troubles cells and organs of the body.
Yes, exactly, interesting example.
Thank you, happy to hear that the example rings a bell, because, if termites live in the wall, apparently,
the mold of the wall looks intact since this creature keeps the look of wall normal but in fact inside is seriously damaged.
Most of the time, diabetic people don't take this situation seriously and they keep feeling the same
about themselves even if their disease has been deteriorated.
Exactly, dear Gelareh.
Unfortunately, what practically happens is, one day they wake up and notice that they can`t feel their
legs (Charcot foot) or they the blurred vision.
Meaning, they wake up to the face that effects of their disease is somehow irreversible and
at that step I`m afraid, there is point of no return.
Can`t agree more dear Gelareh, in reality, the high blood sugar in blood stream could be likened to that
of termites that eat and internally rot the organs.
However, in this show the main focus is to capture the attention of the audience that this disease
is gravely destructive in the vessels and organs.
Yes, very true!
it`s a good idea to address what happens in a healthy person as he eats some food and then compare
it to the same situation in a diabetic person.
In a healthy individual a part of the consumed food will be converted to glucose
or sugar and the sugar rises up in the blood stream.
However, the body must cleanse the blood from sugar almost two hours after the food consumption,
that is, it converts the energy or stores it as fat.
As you know in the old saying "stop eating sweets or you'll be fat"
Precisely!
In our body, the pancreas releases the insulin proportional to the volume of sugar in the food into
the blood stream and in a way, the insulin and cell acts as a lock and it`s key, as the insulin unlocks the cell
thus the sugar can enter the cell and gets metabolized.
Since the main meaning of this metabolism is cell's energy gaining, therefore, cells of the healthy
individual always welcome the insulin and that`s why the blood gets cleaned up from sugar.
Interesting to know is how, the mentioned mechanism happens in a diabetic person and where is the problem?
In a diabetic person, sometimes even if there is enough insulin, the cell receptors don't have the same
sensitivity or welcoming to the insulin as they reacted before consequently it can`t unlock the cell
This process is called insulin resistance.
This phenomenon causes the blood sugar stays in the blood stream instead of coming to the cells,
so blood sugar level rises up significantly.
One of the obstacles which the diabetic is confronted is that they always feel hungry.
They might have just eaten a portion of food, but shortly after the hunger arrives and
everybody in the family sends them on a guilt trip "you just ate recently. Why you are hungry again?"
usually they`re misunderstood or just called ghosts who pays visits to the fridges at night, which is a doleful story.
If we delve into understanding what really happens in the body of a diabetic person,
we may understand them far better.
You have just pointed out a very good issue dear Gelareh!
To me, one of the most important thing that we could do for any patient is to understand them first.
I think what you said was propitious.
Well...in the previous section we said that the cell lives on glucose, and in other words,
we said food can't get into the cell in a diabetic person, meaning a diabetic person could be likened
to someone starving in a room, let`s assume that there`s a glass wall in the middle of
the room and the other side of the room is a big table full of food but even if that person is famished,
he could not access it, because they key to the wall's lock is not functional,
this story more or less is a model of the life story of the diabetic person's cells.
The cell is hungry and completely in the adjacent vessel in the blood stream is full of food (glucose)
but the cell can't access it sufficiently.
The starving cells send the message to the brain that need (energy) and as a consequence,
the brain in order to support the cells sends the signal for secretion of hunger hormone and the person,
despite having high blood sugar feels the tendency to eat more and that's why diabetic people are always hungry
and almost after half an hour after of food consumption they find an empty spot in the stomach
they feel hungry again and again.
Unfortunately, because the cells are still hungry the would have the symptoms of tiredness and hunger.
A problem that occurs frequently is that diabetic people consume lot of sweet.
They can eat sweet things in a high volume and in high concentration, I mean I eat that much,
it bores me after sometimes but they can eat is easily.
Yes, dear Gelareh, this is a defense mechanism that falls into a vicious cycle.
Because usually we eat very little of what we don`t like.
The body of a diabetic person weakens the sugar receptivity.
In reality, the main goal of the body is a help to the person to enjoy less from the sweet or at least eat less but
unfortunately as there is a per-existing memory of pleasure, a diabetic person for having the same joy as before eat more sweet.
we have pointed out before, sometimes cell's insulin sensitivity decreases.
In this group of patients could we treat them by restoring the insulin sensitivity ?
yes, but up to a limit. In this show we aim to explain how to restore insulin sensitivity.
The next question is how the result of the research could cause the symptoms to disappear or treat.
In fact, in the medicine the treatment will be done via two fundamental approaches.
In the first one, we attack the root of the disease using medications or (in the second approach)
we can strengthen the immune system and the body treats the disease.
For example in the diabetic case we can give a drug to the diabetic person to increase the insulin production
or extract less sugar from the food or increase insulin sensitivity in the system.
Yes, to my knowledge, these medications have a lot of side effects on liver, kidney and other organs and
unfortunately their effects is only limited to the time that the medication is being taken
and after stop taking it, the malady symptoms return.
Yes, that`s right, that is the reason why the second approach in which we need to eliminate the main cause
to treat the disease is a better approach with no side effects.
I wanna explain but exclude my own opinion, from now on, it won't be me who is talking but the latest
research from accredited papers in medicine from accredited universities in the world.
One point I want to put a finger on is that in the Green Pomegranate, so far, around 95% of the people
who leave comments for us and express their opinion are thoughtful people and always check references.
But there are 5% of whom are in contrast with us, and 95% of them are individuals whose opposition is emotional based.
Just because we say something that they by and large may not hear it somewhere else, are in opposition to us.
The total content of what we discuss in the chat quest are provided in a link below the video.
If you click on the link, a PDF file will open up and in the that PDF
file it might be for example 60 references that will connect you to the accredited references and independent to industry.
Dear Hanieh, it`s also informative if you explain a little bit about the references that you have used
in this show and where they come from.
Dear Gelareh, the papers I have used are collected from NCBI website.
As you can see, this data base is very famous and belongs to national center of united states medical faculty's research.
In addition, even after a paper is published, if other specialists refer to that article,
the number of citation will be also a kind of double confirmation.
as you can see, this paper has been cited for more than 100 times.
That means the other specialists in more than 100 projects around the world
somehow used this work which itself could be a double conformation.
Well...as we can see in this paper, the main cause of the diabetes type 2 is insulin resistance
and one of most important factors contributing to this is the accumulation of saturated fat in the muscle,
liver and pancreas cells.
In reality, in the most cases the main problem with sugar is the problem of us with saturated fat, therefore,
if we eat less sugar but fills our diet with the saturated fat, the disease (diabetes) will worsen more and more.
Yes, many of diabetic patients despite controlling the blood sugar, the disease worsens in the long run.
Exactly! the disease will progress, gradually using the animal products more saturated fat deposits in
the cells and acts like a toxin and somewhat blocks the insulin signaling.
In medicine it is known as lipotoxicity or toxicity by the (bad) fat.
Let's take a look at another reference, as seen here, this paper is published in Nature journal,
the best medical journals in the world where every professor craves to have even one of their articles
gets published in their life`s carrier and also latest discoveries are to be found there,
in the paper being displayed the negative effect of the saturated fat is shown in a way on insulin resistance.
Yes, in my opinion, this information can surprise many since,
people tend to think that diabetes type 2 is in relative to sugar consumption.
absolutely, once you`re inflicted, there`s a need to control the consumption of sugar, but at the time,
we are talking about the pathways that lead to the main problem with sugar.
Of course, the fat is not our enemy, our body needs fat but the issue is about the type of the fat,
some types of fat are helpful to the overall health such as unsaturated fats that are mostly
coming from plants based products and some fats are usually harmful to health
such as saturated fat which are coming from animal products.
Nowadays, many Iranian women cook low fat foods and it became a culture to use less fat.
However, they are always somebody in the family with high cholesterol,
blood pressure or triglyceride but they always say why?
We only consume low fat food and when they see a member of the family,
they decrease that one spoon oil that they used to use to half and they think they will solve the problem.
But in fact they forget the common denominator, main cause of disease is that they consume
a lot of bad fat (meat even without fat tissue) in their diet which mostly comes from animal products.
Animal fat is not even bad by itself, but also trap and store the animal`s toxin in the fat tissue.
For example, the lamb's rump that we usually add to the Kebab or Abgosht (meat soup).
The lamb's rump problem is not only because it's very bad and fatty (calorific) but the toxins of the body
of that animal is also stored among fat cells.
It is a defense mechanism of the body to get rid of the toxins by storing it in between of the fat cells.
As a consequence, if we eat that fat all toxins enter our body.
but even the lump of lamb or cow muscle presumably have no fat, if we take a look into how
microscope works we will find fat in the cells.
As a result, animal products have lots of bad fats inside them.
Exactly, then the results of these researches can change the next generation of the medication for diabetes?
Yes, absolutely, the next generation of the medication tends towards the direction that
could wash out the saturated fat and it's attached toxins from the cell.
A notable point here is why do most of the dietitians recommend patients to go on a diet,
a handful of bread with 150 gr steamed meat is overfilled with saturated fats and cholesterol.
Yes, even Dr. Greger, one of the renown nutrition scientists have mentioned in one of his interviews
that the fact that sometimes dietitians recommend the diets to patients whose situation exacerbate with that diet.
In reality, they try to decrease the amount of sugar in the diet to prevent blood sugar to rise up,
therefore they recommend people to eat animal protein.
But the saturated fat in animal protein penetrates (block the insulin signaling) in the cell and
just like fire under the ash the illness worsens more and more and finally they have to
increase the medication dose or use the insulin.
Dear Gelareh the solution is to eliminate the saturated fat from the diet significantly and replace it
with unsaturated fat in order to help cells retrieve the metabolisms gradually.
True...
The American Heart Association has announced the saturated fat sources as follow:
beef, lamb, goat, pork, chicken and it's skin, egg, cheese, cream, butter and dairy.
Exactly dear Gelareh, some people may think that they must see the fat in the
chicken breast, turkey, even fish or shrimp to believe it contains fat, however they all have saturated
fat in them but we have to observe it using microscope.
Yes and many comfort food such as fried industrial products could have saturated fat and even some
oils such as palm oil whose story goes without saying.
I personally don't use any products with palm oil and quit any related products even in cosmetics
or even coconut oil, not to mention even I use that.
But the good thing about coconut oil is, it doesn't have cholesterol, however (a diabetic person)
needs to be cautious about that and replace it with olive oil.
And the fascinated part is the unsaturated fat somehow can neutralize the effect of saturated fat.
It's true dear Gelareh!
The unsaturated fat have this effect that can clean the body and acts as a vacuum
cleaner and could be found in nuts such as almond, hazel nut, walnut and the fruits such as avocado.
It would be very important to pay attention that nuts should not be roasted but raw and remember
to eat 40-50 a bit larger size of those nuts proportional to the weight of their body weight every day and
please don't worry about the calorie because their cleaning effect in the vessels and cells is worst the try.
There are some plant based products as stubborn enemy to diabetes.
Such as basil, tarragon, mint, parsley, rosemary even thyme, cinnamon wood
specially if you prepare camomile's tea with cinnamon wood and my favorite condiment which is
one of the stubborn enemies of cancer and one of the alternative ways of suppressing the cancer:
turmeric...turmeric..turmeric... it`s ubiquitous
Yes dear Gelareh it was a complete list.
One thing that I want to point out here is that I hope primarily all human beings pay more attention to
the vegan-ism, in particular those who have diabetes.
Natural nutrition is not a product that we get in our hands and intend to sell it for preventing or
treating the diabetes rather it's a rational solution that every body with any type of nutrition that see this
show could follow and check and try whether it has effect or not.
Nothing will happen to you, I for one am vegan alive and kicking and I am even more fresh and cheerful,
rest assured nothing threatens you and don't panic.
Dear Gelareh, you won`t see the disaster ever.
In reality the disease is a consequence of our wrong habits and insight towards food.
If our ideas were right why we got diseases? The disease shows something in our habits is wrong.
Lets go to see another paper, as you can see in the year 2016 in Korea some diabetic patients were
recommended to follow healthy vegan diet and in the period of 3 moths they gained very good and
positive results which itself could be a success in the medicine filed.
Yes, exactly right.

Why Hollywood Won't Cast Cameron Diaz Anymore - Duration: 5:21.
Shocking as it may seem, Cameron Diaz hasn't starred in a major motion picture release
since Annie all the way back in 2014.
How is it possible that the star of such hits as My Best Friend's Wedding and Charlie's
Angels virtually disappeared from the big screen?
Here are a few theories ...
Critical poison
While Diaz isn't known for picking the best scripts, it's still rather shocking to see
just how badly her recent movies have been reviewed.
Case in point: none of her movies have received a "fresh" rating on Rotten Tomatoes since
2005's In Her Shoes.
Diaz's recent flicks have been especially painful, with some of the worst reviews of
her entire career coming the last two years she was active as an actress.
Critics said she, quote, "struggles to be one-dimensional" in 2012's Gambit and "overacts
... to the point of hysteria" in 2014's Annie —
"You guys, act well cared for."
"We love you Miss Hannigan!"
"Take it down a thousand.
Nobody's going to believe that."
— and that's just a small sample of the shade being thrown her way at this point in
her career.
Box office wildcard
To her credit, Diaz can still turn a mediocre movie into a box-office hit when it counts.
Despite middling reviews, 2011's Bad Teacher surpassed the 100-million-dollar mark in 2011,
and made nearly an additional $116 million overseas.
She found similar success in 2014 with The Other Woman, which grossed over $83 million,
domestically, and almost $200 million, worldwide.
But for every hit she's had, she's also had a flop.
The same year The Other Woman came out, Diaz starred in the underwhelming Sex Tape, which
was ripped to shreds by critics and brought in disappointing returns at the box office.
Even the remake of beloved movie-musical Annie failed to catch on with audiences in 2014,
earning just $85 million, domestically, off a staggering $65 million budget.
Squandered potential
Twenty years ago, Diaz was positioning herself to become one of Hollywood's great comedic
actresses.
In 1997, she added depth, layer and humor to what might have otherwise been a stock
character in My Best Friend's Wedding, and critics took notice.
"Don't know just what to do with myself."
More praise continued the following year, when her instantly iconic performance in There's
Something About Mary earned her the coveted Best Actress award from the New York Film
Critics Circle.
She even flirted with flirted with Oscar buzz at the turn of the Millennium, first in 1999
with Being John Malkovich, then again in 2001 opposite Tom Cruise in Vanilla Sky.
"We're gonna be together again.
You're gonna forget about Juliana and we're gonna be together.
I'm not gonna be afraid of you anymore."
And in 2002, her performance in Gangs of New York in 2002 even nabbed her a Golden Globe
nomination.
But she followed that up with Charlie's Angels: Full Throttle, and she's been getting mixed
or negative reviews ever since.
Side hustle
Diaz's absence from the big screen may have been deliberate.
In fact, over the last few years, she's been busy carving out a career for herself as a
lifestyle author.
In 2013, she co-wrote the The Body Book: Feed, Move, Understand and Love Your Amazing Body,
which quickly became a wildly popular best-seller.
On the heels of The Body Book's success, she released The Longevity Book, which is about
women and aging.
In an interview with the LA Review of Books, Diaz briefly discussed how being a woman in
her mid-40s can be difficult in Hollywood ...
"You can't play 25 anymore.
You can't play 70.
And to start considering yourself in a position where you have to go, 'I'll play the mom."
"We're all still stuck.
We're stuck in the past or we're projecting into the future.
We all have to accept where we're at."
Self-imposed exile?
While participating in a panel discussion at Gwyneth Paltrow's Goop Wellness Summit
in June of 2017, Diaz admitted that the rigors of a jet-setting entertainment career have
worn her down over the years.
She told the panel she had a realization that, quote, "I can't really say who I am to myself"
and that she needed to take a break to make herself "whole."
That break coincided with her marriage to rocker Benji Madden — her husband and self-professed
"luckiest guy alive" since January 2015.
Diaz can certainly afford to take all the time off she wants: She has found more success
in Hollywood than most actors will see in their lifetimes.
In 2013, she was named the highest paid actress over 40 in Hollywood, and her films have earned
more than $7 billion worldwide.
The wildly popular animated Shrek franchise, in which Diaz voiced the role of Princess
Fiona, grossed well over a billion dollars in the United States alone.
Turning it around
Because she won the hearts of audiences and critics early on in her career, Diaz will
always have a place in Hollywood.
And assuming she really wants to make acting the focus of her career, finding her footing
again shouldn't prove to be very difficult.
Choosing better scripts seems like the easiest and most obvious route to take, scripts that
have roles that will challenge Diaz as an actress rather than keep her on autopilot.
Working with better directors might help, too, like Spike Jonze, whose collaboration
helped her earn critical acclaim for her work in Being John Malkovich.
Finding the right role, in the right script that gets put in the hands of the right director
could remind everyone that Cameron Diaz is a terrific actress … but she should probably
leave the singing to the professionals …
"I should be anywhere but here."

How CGI Transformed Animated Storytelling - Duration: 12:17.
In 1937, Walt Disney released the first feature-length 2D animated film, kicking
off a filmography that remained thematically consistent for decades, and
in the process, defining what we think about, when we think about animation.
They are brightly colored, musical, public domain, fairy tale adaptations.
Usually about a woman yearning to be free, who finds that freedom in the only
way a woman can, by marrying a dude. Wait... what?
And even the movies that weren't explicitly fairytales, like the ones
based on novels or historical events, were treated as fairy tales. By doing
this, they made some of the greatest films of all time, but they are also
stories that are very conservative. And I don't mean that in a good or bad way,
only that these movies believe in the idea that "things should stay about the
way they are." The stories will usually end with the restoration of a previous
order, typically they'll even be a shot returning the setting to whatever it
looked like in the first scene, because change is bad.
But when 3D animation arrived, a new generation of storytellers shook up that
formula. Why did that happen? Well, to answer that, we have to figure out
exactly what these movies became. They stopped being conservative fairy tales,
and became liberal allegories, which brings me to: Part One, What On Earth Is A
Liberal Allegory? By this I just mean that the take home message of these
films is often that society can change, and that an individual can be the
instigator of that change. These films are concerned with civilizations as much
as they are individuals. In fact, tell me if this sounds familiar:
in a typical 3D animated movie, we'll be introduced to a society that appears to
be a utopia. This is an orderly society with a very strict hierarchy of
characters, but one where almost everyone is more than happy to be doing their one
specific job. We'll usually have a scene where the main character gawks at how
amazing this all is. It's like a buzzing bee-hive that looks out of control, but
where everything hits its mark with the efficiency of a Rube Goldberg machine.
We'll usually get one of two types of main characters and sometimes both.
There's the master of the universe, and the outcast. The master of the universe
archetype is less common, but the idea is whatever makes this world unique, they're
pretty much the best at it. And everyone in the world admires them for it, but
they're also a flawed person, who will inadvertently do something that will
threaten to destroy the Utopia. By overcoming their own shortcomings they
will save the world from destruction. So you've got Woody, Sully, Lightning McQueen,
Mr. Incredible, and Joy. These stories are ultimately about accepting change, but
the more common protagonist, and the more explicitly political and liberal one, is
The Outcast. Whatever it is that makes this world unique, they're the furthest
thing from it. They've got a totally different outlook on life, but with a
little work, they'll develop from Outcast to Rebel, to Leader, totally transform the
world in their own image, unite every warring faction, and live a happy life.
You've got Wreck-it Ralph, Shrek, Remmy, Mumble, Judy Hopps, and sadness. And if
your protagonist is a robot, an insect, an inventor, or some combination of
those things, then you can bet they're an outcast living in a society that doesn't
appreciate their unorthodox ways. So the flaw that needs to be fixed here is in
the world itself, not just the character. Whether that's the class system of a
Bug's Life, Antz, or Robots. The conformist social codes of The Lego Movie, Happy
Feet, and Ratatouille. Or the prejudice in Wreck-it Ralph, Shrek, and Zootopia. The
structure is so familiar, that the emoji movie was basically able to hijack it as
a disguise for product placement. You don't need to rebel against a conformist
society to express your individuality! All you need to do is buy a phone and
play Candy Crush! Just like everybody else. But you might be thinking... Part Two:
Hold on aren't Disney protagonists outcasts too? Yes, many are, but it's in a
different way. You see, the theme of identity is pervasive in Disney movies
and we'll usually have characters grappling with two dueling identities.
But this issue is solved when the main character affiliates themselves with a
pre-existing group. The outcasts in 3d animated movies often reject that binary
and chart their own paths. Think about this: Ariel is unhappy being
a mermaid, and wants to join the human world. In the end, she does just that, but
the two worlds remain separated. Compare that to Ratatouille. Remmy is
dissatisfied with rat culture, and becomes a renowned chef. At the end, the
two worlds are blended together. Rat society has fundamentally changed. Or
even better yet, look at How To Train Your Dragon, where humans and dragons
are at war with one another, but in the end, everyone is riding a dragon. Mulan
goes against societal expectations, and the film definitely has a more liberal
message than most Disney films of that era, but her actions don't lead to
widespread acceptance of women into the military. In Zootopia, on the other hand,
Judy Hopps goes against societal expectations, and through her actions, the
relationship between prey and predator is fundamentally changed. You see, many of
these movies, and Zootopia most of all, are intended to be read as political
allegories in a way that the creators of the earlier Disney movies simply weren't
cognizant of. The political messaging of the story was at the core of the idea
from the very beginning of the production. "He wanted to tell a story of
the bias human beings can use towards one another,
and tell it through an analogy or metaphor with animals." And the film was
even rewritten in order to hit those thematic points of exploring the
enduring issues of racism. In comparison, consider The Lion King
one of the most successful and critically adored movies of all time
that if you spend a couple minutes looking at it can easily be read as a
segregationist allegory. Scar, the intended villain, is guilty of a lot of
things like well...assassination...but the thing the film treats as one of his
worst crimes, is integrating the hyenas into the rest of society. The land even
dries up as if nature itself is saying that integration is wrong. And Simba, the
hero, is celebrated for re-segregating society, kicking out the only
characters who speak in accents coded black and hispanic. Now did Disney
Studios mean for the movie to be read this way? Of course not. It's a byproduct
of the story they wanted to tell about family and growing up. I just think
there's far more awareness in these newer films about what the political
substance of their stories are that just didn't exist before.
Part three: but this didn't happen in Finding Nemo or Ice Age or... Keep in mind,
this is not every 3D animated movie. This is just one trend. A lot of the more
commercial animated franchises don't really engage with this because they're
aimed at a much younger audience. But it's important to recognize trends and
tropes when they happen, because they reflect on us. In this case, I think it's
no coincidence that these films came at a time when social movements that
challenged traditional values became stronger and stronger. These films fit
the political climate they were born into. But, I also think that there are
other reasons they turned out the way they did. After all, we're talking about
thousands of artists across several generations. But I think one of the
underappreciated factors is the medium change itself. You see, 3D animation
incentivizes certain storytelling decisions, and one thing all of them have
in common over their 2D predecessors is... Part four: more movement!
Ouch 3D animated movies have a lot in common with action blockbusters nowadays,
and that's because it's a lot easier to make things move in computer-generated
animation, than it is in hand-drawn animation. Here's a couple of reasons why.
Modelling: when you animate in 3D you don't draw every frame. Instead, you
create a model of the character, tell the computer what the model will look like
at the beginning of a movement and at the end of a movement, and the computer
just fills in the rest of the frame. It's a huge time-saver, and gives the
animator a lot more control and flexibility over what they animate. Copy
and paste: 3D animators can duplicate a moving object with the click of a button
on the computer. That's why even the hand-drawn Disney movies incorporated
CGI in the movies whenever there was a hoard of something, like the wildebeests
in the Lion King, the Hun's in Mulan, or the Hydra in
Hercules. Moving Camera: In this shot from The Lion King you can see the animation sort of
straining to pull off this circular motion. That's a hard shot to animate in
hand-drawn animation, but in 3D it's really easy, because you're not animating
the character, you're animating the camera. Doing this, you can have sequences
where the camera pans and dollies and swoops and twists and everything in
between relatively easily. Again, Disney
incorporated this in their hand-drawn films for certain scenes, like this one
of Tarzan swinging and surfing through the jungle. This is an effect called deep
canvas that allowed them to move the camera around while painting the
branches of the trees, and then drawing the animations for the character by hand.
Now there's still a ton of movement in hand-drawn Disney movies, particularly
during the songs, but the point here is that it's just a lot easier to do it on
a computer. And this has a ton of storytelling ramifications, because with
a greater ability for movement, many Studios started setting their stories in
places that could take advantage of that movement. We move from the mostly rural
environments of Disney movies, to bustling cities. Cowboys were out, and
Space Rangers were in, so to speak. But it's important to note that it's a lot
easier to animate movement when it has some order
to it, as opposed to being totally chaotic. So we end up with worlds that
move like clockwork. From that it's logical that these settings produce
characters and conflicts centered around conformity versus individuality. The
medium often influenced the setting, and within the setting, the characters, themes
and conflicts, are implied. I love the old Disney movies, but when they were the
only game in town, their thematic possibilities were narrowed by their
goals of creating easily digestible conservative stories. So I'm glad that
when Pixar arrived on the scene, they didn't just put a 3D skin on the same
old tales, because children need a wide variety of nutritious stories. The old
Disney movies often tell us to look at the wisdom of the past, while newer 3D
movies teach us to trust in the future. And like so many of these characters
realize at the end of their films, we don't have to make a choice between
these two perspectives when both are vitals. So this video focused on American
animation, but there are plenty of other animated movies from around the world
that might affect the way we think about this evolution. So if you've got one in
