Hey guys, it's Emily! For today's video I'm doing a book haul. I do want to note
that almost every single book--not every single one but the vast majority--of the
books I'm about to talk about were either gifts from family and
friends, or they were bought at a discount/bargain price. Sometimes I feel
like book hauls give off this very consumerist vibe, but I'm not really into
that. There's nothing wrong with buying used books
I love used books! You'll see a
number of these are kind of beat-up or they're old library editions, things like
that. I absolutely love used books and just want to extol the virtues of them.
So if they look kind of funky on the cover either it's because it's a used
book in they're a little beat-up, or it's because I'm too lazy to take the sticker
off completely. I'm realizing now that I maybe should have organized my books using
almost any system other than "stick them on your bed and hope for the best," which
is what I have now... Like my reading tastes, they are a very wide variety of
genres and types of books. So I hope you're okay with that, because you're
getting a mix now! Starting out, I have nonfiction true crime, and that is
Popular Crime by Bill James. This is a library edition so it's covered in
plastic. I absolutely love library editions. They feel very nostalgic to me.
I mostly use my library now for digital editions of things, so ebooks and
audiobooks. So I don't really have physical library books with me very
often anymore. Not that I don't love my library, that's just not what I really
use it for anymore. So it's nice to have a little bit of a library back in my
home. What is this about? That is something that might be relevant to this
video. This is a look at all kinds of crimes from the 1600s to present. It's
basically all the true crime you could imagine in one book. Next I
have Jade City by Fonda Lee. This is epic fantasy. I don't know if it's
standalone or the start of the series. In this book we are in a world in which
jade gives a select group of warriors enhanced magical abilities, but
there is a new drug that has been introduced that gives all kinds of
people the ability to harness the power of this jade, which then turns the world
a little topsy-turvy when it comes to power dynamics. I am super super excited
to read this! I've heard really good things about Fonda Lee
as a writer, so I cannot wait to pick this up. Next I have more creepy
nonfiction. I'm realizing there's a lot of crime oriented books in this book
haul I hope that doesn't reflect on me in any strange ways and that I said that
I have ears the fact of a body by Alexandria Marzano less damage yes and
this is a blending of true crime and memoir Marzano Lesnar bitch she finds
out about this murder and does a lot of research into it and it forces her to
kind of question some of her beliefs she sees some of her own life reflected in
the evidence and the story that she finds through her research I have heard
amazing things about this Wow I really should have organized books cuz I've got
another murder book and that is if we were millions by MLV oh it's maybe about
a troupe of Shakespearean actors so I'm hoping for some amazing melding of
Shakespeare and modern literary fiction and thrillers into one book I've heard
some really good things about this so I'm really excited to get up okay so
honey we have a not murder ebook although I guess Jade said he was not
murdered this is a hundred nights of hero by Isabel greenberg this was a book
this someone actually recommend it to me and I think my favorites of 2017 video
and on top of their recommendation Russell from Inca fever blog he also
recommended this this is like a reimagining of 1001 Arabian Nights
except it features two ladies in love one of them in an effort to save her
lover from a would-be attacker tells this attacker a new story every night
and all of those stories feature female protagonists female heroes and if that
is it right up my alley I don't know what is next I have harmless like you by
Roman decile Buchanan this is literary fiction in which we
follow a Japanese woman who is trying to make it as an artist and we also follow
her son in like the future present tense kind of time and he's dealing with the
emotional fallout of his mother abandoning him I'm super excited about
this I don't remember if it was Joss or Russell who recommended this to me but
we were all booked shopping together actually a lot of these books are from
when we met book shopping together you should watch Russell's video about
it it like takes me back and makes me so happy with such a wonderful day so this
is one of the many I recommend it to me then next I have
one true love's by Taylor Jenkins three I've only read one book by Jenkins read
and that was the seven husbands of Evelyn Hugo which is absolutely fabulous
it's amazing so I saw there's some book outlet and was like I gotta do it I'm
also pretty sure jaws said this was one of the few love triangles that she could
get behind that she enjoyed reading about I'm generally not huge on that so
I'm gonna trust her opinion there and this we follow a woman named Emma her
husband is like on assignment somewhere for like a documentary film and his
helicopter goes missing and then we flash forward a number of years and he
is still missing and she has fallen in love again and is engaged and then
harassment salmon comes back and so we gotta go from there it's always good to
have a little bit of fluff in your life so I'm excited to read this
next I have kiss of the Spider Woman by Manuel Puig this is a translated work
originally in Spanish and in this we follow two prisoners in Argentina one is
gay man and one is revolutionary and they are talking and sharing secrets and
one of them is like obsessed with film old movies and things like that which I
love I'm always excited about books that incorporate cinema into them I just love
it I'm really excited to read this but I'm going to save it because it's going
to be one of the selections for Russell's around the world book club so
I'm gonna read it then but it is on my radar and on my shelf I'm really excited
next I have Jane Steele by Lindsey Frey and this is like a Jane Eyre retelling
of sorts except the Jane in this is an assassin yep sign me up next I have and
again by Jessica Chia Ella and this we follow several characters who are
granted new bodies almost physically identical to their old bodies that their
old bodies were like ravaged by disease or had suffered some kind of accident
they're then put into these new bodies that are free of all of those issues any
scar or blemish except these new bodies don't have physical memories so one
character who's an artist I so like literally relearn how to hold a brush so
spooky things happen from there I think I'm guessing I don't know I'm excited
though next I have a constellation of vital phenomena by Anthony Mara this
follows several characters in Chechnya this came highly recommended from
Russell and I trust his opinion so I'm next I have another book that came
highly recommended from Russell and that is the association of small bombs by
Karan Mahajan this is about the aftermath of a small bomb that is
detonated in a marketplace and I think Delhi in 1986
Russell said that this had him crying within the first chapter or something
like that so I don't like prepare myself for a good cry with this one next I have
some middle-grade I have not been reading a whole lot of middle grade
lately so I thought I would pick some up and what I got is in the shadow of the
banyan tree I thought II Ratner this examines the horrors committed by the
Khmer Rouge in Cambodia through the eyes of a seven-year-old girl and I've heard
absolutely phenomenal things and really excited to kind of get back into middle
grade I hope this would be a good starting point for me next I have a book
that was a very very very special gift and that is my beloved world by Sonia
Sotomayor Sotomayor is the first Latina Supreme Court justice in the United
States and why this book is so very special to me is that it is a signed
edition my dad got this for me for Christmas it went missing and you
couldn't find it and so I finally found it and gave it to me and I am just so
excited and thankful and grateful that I have such an amazing dad and I can't
wait to read about an amazing woman next I have another book that I am just
unbelievably excited for and that is an unkindness of ghosts by Rivers Solomon
this is something that I had heard of but I hadn't actually done any research
into and I was just wandering around the books met and said what Cisco on my own
and the cover caught my eye and I was like oh I've heard of it and then I did
some reading and the names thrown around saying that Solomon brought to mind
these other authors it was like a mere Butler it was Colson whitehead this is
also blurbed by one of my new favorite Duvall and
this is a science fiction book examining collective trauma and racism and this we
follow our protagonist aster who is queer disabled and intersex and the
world in which this takes place is on a ship that has left earth like centuries
ago and basically Jim Crow has come back into being I am just so excited to read
this everything I've read now because I was doing a little bit of research about
it everything I've seen I said that it's absolutely amazing the world-building is
absolute phenomenal the writing is phenomenal I
just cannot wait to read this thanks I have women and power by Mary e beard
this is a teeny tiny little pocketbook I think it's only two essays in here I'm a
big fan of Mary beards I read her book SPQR which is a history of ancient Rome
it is phenomenal phenomenal historical nonfiction I was completely blown away
by it because not only is it's so meticulously
beautifully researched it's beautifully written it's also funny it's really hard
to write classical nonfiction like examining the Classical period and have
it be funny without coming across as kitschy or like the writer isn't really
focusing on the research Mary beard toed that line so beautifully it was
completely blown away and so this little book is basically an examination of
misogyny from ancient times to present focusing on a few historical examples of
that because beard I guess I didn't know this but she has been a victim of
vitriolic misogynist hatred online and in the real world as a fan of beard and
as a feminist I'm very excited to read this next I have a book that a lot of
you will probably have heard of and that is singing unvaried sang by Jasmine Ward
this is a 21st century Road novel examining race the United States we
follow a family the mother is black the father is white and incarcerated and
they have a son who's obviously biracial I am just so excited to read this I've
only heard wonderful things this won the National Book Award in 2017 I can't wait
I'm lastly I have a book that I picked up not knowing what I was about at all I
just know that I love this author and that is the refrigerator monologues by
Katherine and Valente I love Valente's work
I read radiance by her which I absolutely loved I read the girl who
circumnavigated fairyland in a ship of her own making absolutely loved that and
I am currently reading her upcoming release which is called space opera
that's gonna come out in April of this year all of those are wildly different
and so inventive and lush the writing is amazing I could go on and on and on and
so this book I was like I don't even know what it's about
I'm gonna pick it up because I love Valente and so doing a little
research first of all this is also illustrated it contains illustrations by
an emu always excited when they're surprised illustrations in a book I
maybe should have paid a little more attention to the cover where it
literally says illustrated by any whoo but there you go
so this follows like the girlfriends of superheroes the wives of superheroes
even female heroes themselves all people who have often been what's quote-unquote
called refrigerated and that's a term that's been used since 1999 I think by
gail simone because i think was in green lantern he comes home to discover this
female partner has been murdered by the arch villain of that particular story
arc and stuffed in the refrigerator and basically that website was all about
examining how in comics this is a very common thing women being used in
extremely violent ways to further the plots of male superheroes so this
follows all of those people who would have been refrigerated and tells the
story from their perspective and I'm just so excited by that whole concept I
think I said that was the last one that I have but I lied I found three more
very underneath all the other bugs that I've already talked about so here are
the final three first I have by Gaslight by Steven price this is first of all
huge so this is gonna take me a while to get through when I decide to pick it up
it's just super atmospheric creepy read in which we follow several different
characters whose lives in various ways are all tied up around this one
con-artist thief figure in Victorian London like one person is a detective
and then other characters their lives are just kind of like we related in some
way to him next I have the woman who smashed codes by Jason Foucault
this is historical one fiction all about Elizabeth Smith who was a code breaker
from World War one through the Cold War I am super super excited to read this I
love historical nonfiction I love badass ladies what more could you
want and lastly officially lastly I've now double checked and this is actually
the last book that I'm going to talk about and that is the book of the
unnamed Midwife by Meg Ellison this is a signed copy which is super cool Meg
Ellison was actually at the Lainey Zuma read clocks event a couple weeks ago we
got to chatting a little bit I did not realize who she was and she's
like actually my books right over there and I asked her what it was and I could
have this book on my radar for a while and she's like well some of them are
and I was like I'm picking it up I'm so excited this is set in a kind of
post-apocalyptic world in which a fever kills off most women and children and
for the women who do survive childbirth is now extremely extremely dangerous so
we follow a midwife in the society with a physically strongest dominate and
there are a lot of men who now seek to control the few remaining women so much
of this is right up my alley I love science fiction
I love examinations of gender power dynamics also I'm very interested in the
history of midwifery that's something that I was fascinated with in college
because midwives are one of the few groups of women in historical times that
had any kind of power and I talked about this a little bit in my read clocks
review which I will link through the cards and down below I am super super
excited to read this so that is finally at all the books that I have recently
acquired I am so unbelievably excited for all of them almost all of these are
things that I've had my eye on for a really long time or they come super
highly recommended by people whose opinions I trust so I'm just I'm so
pumped to take so much for watching if you like this video give it a thumbs up
hit subscribe to see more of my face you can find me on Twitter it possibly lit

President Trump Decreases the Debt to GDP Ratio in His First Yea - Duration: 2:37.
President Trump Decreases the Debt to GDP Ratio in His First Year in Office � First
Time in More than 50 Years!
The higher a country�s debt to GDP ratio, the less healthy the country�s economy.
With the GDP numbers released yesterday, President Trump�s policies have officially decreased
the Debt to GDP ratio by 1.2% in the President�s first year in office.
In contrast, President Obama increased the US Debt to GDP ratio his first year in office
by 14.5%.
Obama increased the rate a total of 37% over his 8 years in office.
Since his inauguration President Trump has focused his efforts on the security of the
country and on the prosperity of its economy.
The results of his actions are taking shape.
The US GDP has increased each quarter in 2017 with the 4th Quarter GDP increasing to $19.739
trillion � the highest GDP for any country in world history.
On the other hand, the President has curtailed US spending.
The result is that the US Debt to GDP ratio decreased in 2017 from 105% to 104%.
No President in more than 50 years has decreased the Debt to GDP ratio in his first year in
office by more than 1%.
The last President to do so was Nixon in 1969.
Presidents Reagan and George W. Bush decreased the Debt to GDP ratio in their first years
in office but by less than 1%.
President Trump has the stock market at all time highs, jobs at all time highs and the
debt to GDP ratio decreasing.
As a result America is moving in the right direction for the first time in at
least a decade.

Malone.
I think it sounds great.
At number 4--Im feeling 22- for those of you who are not yet huge fans of post Malone then
you may be shocked to find out that hes only 22.
Hes a baby.
He was born on July 4th 1995.
That's really surprising.
That's a lot of talent for such a young man to have.
Also he has the same birthday as America- well the July the 4th parts the same anyway.
Definitely thought he was in his 30s.
But this seems to be the trends with artists lately.
They just look a lot older then they are.
You think the artist is 30 something only to find out they are late teens or early 20s.
In at number 3--Chicken express- Chicken express was the name of one of post malones first
job as a teenager.
And before becoming an artist this was his only job.
He started off as a packer- which are the people who put the food in the box.

Now as much as he said that he dis-liked this job he did say that when working he would
get free food and that it was delicious.
Coming in at number 2--Highschool- Guess who was voted most likely to become famous?
That's right- Austin did.
Yeah I bet I confused some of you for a second there.. your all like Austin?
Yeah so all of you who already wrote down in the comments" omg how is that a shocking
fact" there you go.
But no in high school he actually was voted most likely to become famous and it looks
like he didn't let down his peers.
Look at Austin- just killing the game.

he actually taught himself to play guitar from watching youtube videos and playing guitar
hero.
Turns out hes extremely good at guitar hero 3.

Former Secret Service Agent: FISA Memo Intel Leads Directly to Barack Obama's Desk (VIDEO). - Duration: 4:40.
Former Secret Service Agent: FISA Memo Intel Leads Directly to Barack Obama's Desk (VIDEO)
Former Secret Service Agent Dan Bongino went on with Tucker Carlson on Monday night following
the House Intelligence Committee vote to release the classified FISA memo.
Bongino confirmed to Tucker that only a dozen Democrats went to read the classified memo.
190 Republicans went to view the shocking memo before the committee vote on Monday.
Bongino told Tucker Carlson the investigation leads directly to the Obama Oval Office.
Dan Bongino: It is not a coincidence that Devin Nunes who has an entire scope of what
happened went back in March to the White House facility to read very specific intel that
I think will very likely be in this memo.
What am I saying by this?
That the information was likely breached to Barack Obama.
What does that mean?
That means that this information was being used by Hillary and all of this other stuff
that was in this dossier and all of this spying was probably being inserted into daily briefs
by Barack Obama.
Why else would Nunes have to go to the White House to read it.
Tucker Carlson: That makes sense and of course it was the Obama administration that pushed
for the surveillance powers over the Trump campaign.

How to Keep Track of Your Credit Cards | Our Favorite Tools for Staying on Top of Cards & Points - Duration: 4:16.
Hi there, it's Ernest from Trip Astute. In this video, I'm going to show you how I
track all my credit card accounts, and share the tools that I use to keep it
all organized.
(light chiming music)
Those of you that are points and miles collectors know that it can
quickly become a challenge to keep track of all your cards. This is especially
true when trying to evaluate whether you want to keep a card with an annual fee,
or when planning out which new cards you want to apply for. Today, I wanted to take
a step back and share some easy and quick ways to keep track of all your
credit cards. Also, I have a freebie that I want to share, but I'll get to that later.
So, let me run through the tools that I use to keep track of all my cards. Number
1: Google Sheets. When it comes to keeping track of all my credit card
accounts, I use Google Sheets to log all my current and past accounts. The
spreadsheet that I use includes basic information like account status, card
name, type, and issuer. However, I also log information like whether I plan to keep
the card, the annual fee, whether it's a personal or business account, the opening
and closing dates, and any annual renewal benefits. This gives me a nice snapshot
of all my accounts and I can easily see what cards I've used and the benefits
associated with each one. Also, I love that I can quickly calculate my total
annual fees for the year and plan accordingly. Number 2: You Need a Budget.
There are plenty of tools out there that you can use to keep track of your budget
and spending. I've actually been using You Need a Budget since 2009 and it's
been a great tool for me to use, especially with this hobby. The budgeting
software is like a digital envelope system. What I mean by that is that it's
like the traditional method of budgeting where you set aside cash into an
envelope for that specific budget. So, I might set aside $300 for groceries and
if anything is left over, it carries over to the next month. Or if I overspend, I
might move money from one envelope to another. The reason this works great for
the points and miles hobby is that I always know how much I'm spending. And it
shifts the way I think about spending on my credit card.
Instead of worrying whether I can spend the money on the card, I'm more focused
on whether I have money to spend in that budget. As long as there's money in the
budget, then I know that I'll be able to pay the credit card in full. There's a lot
more to You Need a Budget and I should probably do a video on it in the future.
Keep in mind though that I'm using the old version and have not upgraded to
their new version, but I'm hoping to do so soon. Also, You Need a Budget isn't
the only software out there, and there are plenty of other apps and tools that
you can use to keep track of your spending and accounts. Number 3: Credit
Karma. We recently did a video on how to check your Chase 5/24 status using
Credit Karma. Definitely check it out if you need to see whether you opened or
closed an account. I generally check my credit score weekly, and I use Credit
Karma to keep track of my credit score and health. It's also a good way of
knowing whether your account history is correct and if there's anything that
might need to be corrected in your credit record. Number 4: Todoist. There are
a ton of different free and paid reminders services and apps out there. I
just happen to use Todoist for my normal work, so I use it to help manage
my credit cards as well. While I've set up auto pay on all my credit card
accounts, I do set up reminders for things like signing up for quarterly
bonus categories, evaluating and potentially canceling credit cards with
annual fees, and due dates for meeting minimum spend requirements. With life
being so busy, it just helps to have something remind me when I have to do
something. What tools do you use to keep track of your credit cards? I'm always
looking for new tips and services, so let me know if you have one that works well
for you. I've included the template of my Google Sheet in the video description
below. Though let us know if you have any questions on anything that we
covered in this video. If you enjoyed this video or found it useful, please hit

How Many Galaxies Are There? - Duration: 5:35.
[♪ INTRO]
Humans have been looking up at the stars for thousands of years, but it was only within
the past century that we learned there's more than one galaxy out there.
Then, ever since the 1920s, astronomers have been finding more and more,
farther and farther away.
But how many galaxies are there in the universe, really?
Well, we'll never have an exact number,
but astronomers have ways of coming up with pretty good estimates.
It doesn't seem like it'd be all that hard to calculate the total number of galaxies.
Just take a picture of the sky and count up all the ones you can see.
Right? Well, it's more complex than that.
How many galaxies your image will capture depends on how sensitive your equipment is,
and how long you leave it running to catch all the super dim stuff.
It also depends on what wavelengths of light it can detect.
Because the universe is expanding, light from distant galaxies gets stretched and shifted
toward the longer end of the electromagnetic spectrum.
This effect is known as redshift.
That means there could be galaxies whose light is redshifted so much that they're no longer
visible to your eyes or your camera.
So to see the oldest galaxies, with the most redshifted light,
you need special, infrared telescopes.
We've been using those for over a decade,
but we've been counting galaxies for much longer.
The first real step toward estimating the total number of them came back in 1996, when
NASA published the Hubble Deep Field Image.
Over a period of 10 days, the Hubble Space Telescope imaged a portion of the sky 1/30th
the diameter of the full Moon, using visible and ultraviolet light.
It was a portion you or I would say looked pretty darn empty.
But it definitely wasn't.
In fact, there were thousands of objects there, from pinpricks to large smudges.
Most were so faint that no telescope had ever seen them before.
Statistically speaking, the distribution of galaxies in the sky is uniform, so in each
speck of sky you have roughly the same number of galaxies.
Extrapolating from the Hubble Deep Field, that's 120 billion galaxies total.
A decade later, Hubble completed a new, deeper survey of a different part of the sky, producing
the Hubble Ultra Deep Field.
Thanks to the newer equipment, that upped the estimate to over 200 billion.
Altogether, with the various fields Hubble and other telescopes have provided, astronomers
estimated that there are between 100 and 200 billion galaxies in the observable universe.
And they've been working with that number for the past two decades.
But in 2016, a paper published in the Astrophysical Journal threw that number out the window.
It claimed a more accurate value was ten times that: 2 trillion galaxies.
To figure this out, the research team used deep space images from Hubble and other telescopes,
as well as work published by other astronomers about the very early universe.
See, nearby galaxies are relatively easy to count, because they're usually pretty bright.
But the farthest galaxies are mostly too dim to be detected.
In this study, the team found a way around that.
Because it takes light billions of years to travel from those galaxies to Earth, we can
only see them as they were in the distant past.
So by using data about the early universe, the scientists developed a new mathematical
model to estimate how many super far, dim galaxies are actually out there.
The model could infer the presence of those dim galaxies that couldn't be visually detected.
Even though they were too dim to show up in the image, the computer could tell they were
supposed to be there based on the number, mass,
brightness, and distance of the galaxies it could detect.
And that's where 2 trillion came from.
As they looked back in time and counted those distant galaxies, the team also noticed something
astronomers had seen before: The farther back they looked, the more galaxies there were.
In fact, when the universe was less than a billion years old,
there were way more galaxies than there are today.
That isn't actually that surprising.
We've thought for a while that, over time, early galaxies merged to make a smaller number
of physically larger galaxies.
This study just supported that.
But that also brings up a new problem: All those early galaxies don't actually exist anymore.
They likely merged billions of years ago, but because it's taken light so much time
to reach Earth, we can only see them from before those mergers happened.
So we don't really know how many galaxies there are in those parts of the universe.
This also means that there are galaxies so far away that their light will never reach
us, because the universe is also expanding.
They're beyond what astronomers call the cosmological horizon,
or outside the observable universe.
So the total number of galaxies in the entire universe is basically unknowable.
But that doesn't mean we won't stop learning,
and that 2 trillion number isn't necessarily our final count.
More powerful telescopes, like the James Webb Space Telescope, which will hopefully launch
in 2019, will allow astronomers to collect more accurate data.
The JWST is 100 times more powerful than the Hubble, and will be able to observe galaxies
in those longer wavelengths.
In the meantime, with at least 2 trillion galaxies out there, it's safe to say that
every point in the sky is completely covered by galaxies.
We definitely can't see all of them.
But it's kind of comforting to know they're out there, bathing us in invisible starlight.

Can You Live Without A Brain? - Duration: 3:50.
Can you live without a brain?
Well, you might think the most obvious answer to that is NO, but if you want to get technical…it's
definitely not impossible to live without a brain, and we're going to tell you how,
right now on lifes biggest questions.
Hello and welcome back to LBQ, I'm charlotte dobre.
Don't forget to like and subscribe and let us know in the comments below what topics
you would like to see next.
I also just wanted to let you know that you can support this channel by donating to our
patreon page, so please check the description for a link to find out what's in it for
you.
So, lets talk about the brain.
The brain serves as the center of our nervous system in all vertebrate and most invertebrate
animals.
It is the most complex organ in a vertebrate's body, containing approximately 15-33 billion
neurons that control most processes in the body that facilitate life.
You might assume that there's no way anyone could live without the most complex organ
in our bodies, but you would be wrong.
You can survive, and live almost a normal life, if you are missing most of your brain.
According to a 2007 study, doctors examined a 44 year old man who lived a normal life,
even though he had an extremely tiny brain.
Earlier this year, a case was reported where a woman was missing her entire cerebellum,
yet she graduated, got married and has a child.
The cerebellum contains half of your brain cells, and she didn't even know she was
missing it.
The important functions in our brain are not designated to just one region, but are supported
by several regions.
So if one part of the brain stops working, or if you're born without it, the rest of
the brain can take on the job.
This phenomenon is called neuroplasticity.
So what about if someone is missing their entire brain?
Can a person live then?
There is a rare condition called hydranencephaly, where a child is born without the cerebral
hemispheres.
The cerebral hemispheres make up the shape of your brain.
In someone with this condition, The brain is replaced by sacs filled with cerebrospinal
fluid.
There is no known cure or treatment for the condition, but it allows you live with only
a brain stem, not a full brain.
Kaliysha Barret was born with hydranencephaly and she lived to be 6 years old without a
functioning brain.
Another boy, Trevor Judge Waltrip was born with the same condition lived and to be 12
years old, even though his doctors said he wouldn't live past 12 weeks.
He was unable to communicate, and was also blind, but he did respond to some forms of
basic stimulus.
According to his mother, he hated being alone.
The brain stem controls autonomic functioning like breathing and maintaining blood pressure.
This means that you can live without your cerebral cortex, the part of the brain that
controls higher functioning processes like memory, speech and personality.
So in short, it is possible to live without a large chunk or your whole brain, but its
not possible to live without a brain stem.
So what about someone who has lost use of their brain, like someone in a coma, or someone
that's become brain-dead.
Can a person survive without a brain then?
Well, sort of.
There have been cases of comatose people who do not need a machine to breathe, which technically
means they are still alive.
There have been recorded cases of people waking up from a coma after 10 years to lead a normal
life.
But if you are totally brain dead, there is no chance they will ever be brought back to
life.
However, the heart's electrical system can keep itself beating for a short time after
a person becomes brain dead.
Kidney and gastric functions can continue working for weeks of being officially brain
dead.
But without a ventilator, to move the blood and oxygen through a person's body, the
heart beating would stop very quickly.
Its not certain how long the body of a brain dead person can function.
In the 1950's 6 patients in france were kept alive for up to 26 days without blood
flow to the brain.
It is believed that with the help of ventilators, the body of a brain dead person could be kept
alive for quite some time, maybe even forever.
But the longer you keep a person on life support, the higher the risk that tissue will become
infected.
That's all for this episode of lifes biggest questions.
Thank you so much for watching.

Philadelphia Mascots Learn Hand-Only CPR - Duration: 2:19.
Hey, Philadelphia!
Are you CPR Ready?
Last year, more than 1,100 people died of sudden cardiac arrest in Philadelphia.
Many died because someone wasn't trained or willing to perform CPR.
That's where CPR Ready comes in.
Hey, guys!
Do you know what to do if someone's heart stops beating?
Nobody?
Looks like I got here just in time.
I'm with CPR Ready, and I'm going to teach you CPR.
I need a volunteer.
Who wants to learn how to save a life?
You?
Come over with me.
Learning CPR is as easy as 1-2-3.
Step 1: Give the person a good shake to see if they need help.
Hey, are you OK?
Are you OK?
You try.
Step 2: Tell someone nearby to call 9-1-1.
Hey you with the wings, call 9-1-1!
If nobody is around to make the call, do it yourself.
Now it's time for step 3: Push hard and fast in the center of the chest.
You try.
Looking good.
Alright, guys, it's your turn.
Go for it!
No mouth-to-mouth; this is hands-only CPR.
Push hard and fast in the center of the chest to keep blood flowing until help arrives.
Great job!
Keep up the good work!
Go a little bit faster, help is almost here.
Keep the chest compressions going until the ambulance arrives.
The EMTs will take over from there.
So what do you think?
Will you be ready to help if someone needs help?
Cardiac arrest can happen to anyone, regardless of age or physical fitness.
Hands-only CPR can double or triple a victim's chance of survival.
