The surface of the water is serene

But what goes on below?

Hungry current sucking at your feet

It won't let go

Tossed 'til we're capsized

Battered and bruised

Say it's the last time

We know the truth

Don't know what you got until it's gone

Don't know what is right until it's wrong

Heaven could fall and angels swarm

But hell is ours to face

Ah-oh

True love is violent

Ah-oh

True love is violent

Stirring in the sugar cubes of salt

Pollute to purify

Drowning in my body, mind, and thoughts

My mouth is dry

Tossed 'til we're capsized

Battered and bruised

Say it's the last time

We know the truth

Don't know what you got until it's gone

Don't know what is right until it's wrong

Heaven could fall and angels swarm

But hell is ours to face

Ah-oh

True love is violent

Ah-oh

True love is violent

After the storm

After the rain

I'm juvenile

I'm born again

(Ahh-ahh)

Don't know what you got until it's gone

Don't know what is right until it's wrong

Heaven could fall and angels swarm

But hell is ours to face

Ah-oh

True love is violent

Ah-oh

True love is violent

What Is Thrive Diet? What Are Its Benefits? - Duration: 6:29.

What Is Thrive Diet?

What Are Its Benefits?

What is Thrive Diet?

Designed and proposed by a professional endurance triathlete Branden Brazier the thrive diet

is a leafy diet plan that aims at helping people maintain healthy body weight and avoid

chronic diseases like cardiovascular problems, high blood pressure and diabetes type 2.

Brazier has put forward a book guide The Thrive Diet as well as online diet plans to help

his followers gain the ultimate goal of well-being.

Thrive diet is principally similar to going vegan.

It restricts its followers to green un-cooked food (or cooked at low temperature) and frees

them from counting their calorie in and out.

The Main Idea The main idea of the thriving diet is to allow

people eat frequently in a day rather than restricting them to specific times and menus

for their on-diet interval.

People following thrive diet don't have to keep the record of their calorie intake

and fats burnt.

It permits followers to eat gentle and lightly cooked green meals four to five times a day

and even more.

Thrive diet promises the healthy body weight, good heart health, controlled cholesterol

and blood sugar level, the energy level of body, stress releasing and overall good health.

However, all of its claims are theoretical with few of them empirically tested.

The researchers are indeed working to evaluate the long-term effects of such vegan diet on

human health.

What Can You Eat?

In thrive diet, you are supposed to give up on all animal products whether its meat or

other dairy products.

This diet is primarily based on all-green, cooked at low-temperature multiple meals a

day.

But under the umbrella of thrive diet, you must be extremely careful about what you shop.

Brazier even has introduced a shopping list that includes beets, celery, avocado, onion,

dinosaur kale, sweet potatoes, sun-dried tomatoes, chickpeas, nori sheets, flaxseed, pumpkin

seed, hemp, amaranth, wild rice, quinoa, apples, dates, coconut oil, bananas, grapefruit, walnuts,

spelt flour, almonds, brown rice, apple cider vinegar, agave nectar and some fresh herbs.

In short, you're only allowed to eat beans, seeds, leafy green vegetables, fruits, sea

vegetable, brown rice, herbs and apple cider vinegar.

All of the meals you prepare make it sure they contain all necessary ingredients with

a lot of proteins, fibre, necessary minerals and healthy fats with no animal fat.

These meals must be healthy enough to serve your hunger and other biological requirements.

The thrive diet aims at providing you with the best and raw nutrients without requiring

the supplements through all green food that you'll have a huge choice in.

What You Can't Eat As told before, thrive diet is all about going

green at least and almost no contact with animal products.

You are bound to avoid meat (lamb, beef, pork etc.), fish (salmon, tuna, white fish etc.),

eggs and poultry (chicken or turkey), seafood (oyster, shrimp, scallops, crab, calamari

etc.) and all dairy products (milk, cream, cheese etc.)

You are also required to leave all processed meals with oil, fats, salt, sugar and artificial

flavours no matter how much energy they offer you.

Thrive diet will deal it your way.

Does Thrive Diet is Risky?

Thrive diet is all about going green, eating food in their natural state without burning

them over the stove and following a persistent several-meals-a-day routine.

But it's healthy for only those who adopt it gradually not abruptly.

If you're going to jump to thrive vegan diet right away, skipping every other thing,

you might be at risk of nutrient deficiency.

Because nutrients you majorly find in animal products such as vitamin B-12, calcium, iron,

DHA etc. aren't really abundant in green foods.

So, specialists recommend making your body habitual of thrive diet gradually rather than

cutting the whole energy intake all at once.

Another important thing to consider is that if you make this gradual change in a short

period of time, you might also experience stomach and gut issues such as bloating, irritability

and even headache.

Therefore, it's better if you give yourself some time.

Potential Benefits of Thrive Diet

People who follow the thrive diet and go vegan are reported to have good and healthy body

weight, normal blood pressure, relatively low cholesterol and blood sugar level and

they are at lower risks of developing cardiovascular diseases and illnesses like diabetes type

2.

Research has backed up the idea for these after effects but things are still needed

to be dug deeper to identify the long-term benefits of these foods.

Roy Wood Jr. - The "Real" Rod Stewart - This Is Not Happening - Uncensored - Duration: 15:28.

- And that's what my mom got at the house.

At my mama's house, it's black Jesus, my dead grandma,

me at graduation, and fucking Rod Stewart.

[dark electronic music]

Welcome to "This Is Not Happening."

I'm your host, Roy Wood Jr.

We all have that special woman in our life,

the one we like to put up on a pedestal.

- Finger sandwiches, boys?

- Aw, thank you, Mom.

- Go on, little Roy, make it rain.

- Aww, skeet, skeet. - There you go.

♪ ♪

Now, make sure you separate the ones from the fives.

- I know, Ma, I know.

- Such a gentleman.

- Now I got to pick up the money.

Separate the bills.

She the one that told me to make it rain.

- That's my boy.

[cheers and applause]

You know this man from his work

on "The Daily Show" with Trevor Noah--Roy Wood Jr.!

[cheers and applause]

I love my mom.

I love my mom, but my mom hates everything.

Like, whatever it is, my mom has the gift,

like most mothers, to just find the flaw

in whatever you think is perfect.

It doesn't matter what it is.

It doesn't matter if it's food,

television, whatever, your outfit--

she will break it down and find the one thing wrong.

I took my mom to see the movie "Gravity."

Sandra Bullock and George Clooney,

beautiful film.

A woman lost up there in space,

trying to figure out how to get back down to Earth.

I take my mom to see this Oscar-winning masterpiece.

We're walking out the theater.

She boils it down to one sentence:

"It's just a movie about a bitch flipping and crying."

[laughter]

I said, "What?

"This movie is about a beautiful internal struggle,

"the desire to live when all the odds are against you.

That's what the film"--

"No, it's just a bitch flipping.

"She crying.

"Bitch wouldn't be flipping if she'd stopped crying.

"Stop crying,

"and figure out why you flipping

"and then you stop flipping, bitch.

Stop flipping."

That's what my mom does to things.

I'm not--like, she-- she hates everything.

I can't even explain to you how much she--

I'm not even my mama's favorite comedian.

I'm not even in her top five.

That's not even a lie.

Like, I don't curse enough.

That was her note to me as a performer.

You don't curse enough.

You ain't no Katt Williams,

I tell you that.

My mom's Mount Rushmore of comedy

is Ron White, Katt Williams,

Wanda Sykes, and barely Chris Rock

because he walks too damn much.

That's what she said.

Why he got to walk back and forth

while he tell the joke?

Can't he stand still?

See, Ron White-- I like Ron White

'cause he stands still so you can hear the joke.

He stands still 'cause he's drunk, Joyce.

That's why he doesn't walk.

She loves Rod Stewart though.

Never heard her say a bad word about Rod Stewart.

My mama got a ton of favorite musicians.

She like all the Hall of Fame black people,

but there's something about Rod Stewart.

I don't know what it is.

She loves that dude, and when my mama die,

that's what I'm playing at her funeral.

I'ma put a Amazon Echo next to her casket, and...

[laughter]

"Alexa, play Mama Funeral Mix."

[as Rod Stewart] ♪ If you think I'm sexy ♪

♪ Come on, sugar, tell me so ♪

[laughter]

This is like--and I don't mean my mom likes Rod Stewart.

She has all his albums.

She loves Rod Stewart.

She went to New York.

Her and her girlfriends every year,

they go to New York, and they go

on this big theater-hopping tour.

They block out four days, and they go watch, like,

eight, nine Broadway musicals.

One in the morning, one in the evening.

Some sort of old lady Coachella,

I don't know what they...

You know-- like, you know how you barhop?

Like, they do that, but with theater shows

in Times Square,

so they're leaving a show one night,

and my mom calls me, just, just--

[hyperventilating]

Just breathing into the phone.

Which is scary, when you get a call from a loved one,

and all you hear is breathing.

You don't know if it's good news or a kidnapping.

You don't know.

I answer the phone. I go, "Hello?"

I just hear...

[hyperventilating]

"Roy, Roy, Roy..."

I go, "Mama, what's going on?"

"I took--I took a picture with Rod.

"I took a picture.

"I took a picture--I took a picture with Rod Stewart.

"I met him--I met Rod Stewart, and we talked about his career,

"and he asked me about my job, and he told me

"about all of his projects that's--I got to go.

I'll call you back." Click.

[laughter]

My mama met Rod Stewart, took a picture with him,

took the picture home, put it on top of the fireplace.

Like, I don't know where you from,

but down south, that is the most sacred place

for a picture to be put, above the fire--

he went straight to above the fireplace.

You supposed to earn the fireplace.

You supposed to work your way up.

You got to be on the end table

in the hallway for a little while.

You do good, then you get promoted

to the top of the piano,

and you either die or graduate from college,

and you get above the fireplace.

And that's what my mom got at the house.

At my mama's house, it's black Jesus, my dead grandma,

me at graduation, and fucking Rod Stewart.

[laughter]

And she loves Rod Stewart.

I get home a couple weeks after this whole shit went down,

and I go and look at the picture,

and I start peeping some discrepancies in the photo.

First of all, there's a knife and fork

in the background.

I go, "Where--where are you in the theater that there's

a knife and fork?"

There's some red and white, like, wallpaper,

and I look closer. I go, "Mama, you took

this picture at a TGI Friday's."

And she said, "Yeah, that's where I met Rod Stewart."

I said, "Mama, I'm pretty sure Rod Stewart ain't

"swinging by TGI Friday's to knock out

"some fucking endless appetizers.

That's not how Rod Stewart rolls."

And I go, "Give me some more details of the story.

Tell me about when you saw him."

"Well, he walked in, and he was walking around."

I go, "Who was with him?"

"Well, nobody." "Well, then this definitely

was not Rod Stewart!"

You telling me Rod Stewart, fucking billionaire musician

is just in TGI Friday's by himself

just walking around...

[as Rod Stewart] ♪ If you like Jack Daniels ♪

♪ And you like some chicken ♪

♪ Come on, baby, eat it now ♪

I'm like, "This is not Rod Stewart, Mama."

We argued back and forth about this shit.

"It is Rod Stewart."

I go, "Mama, I really think

"this was a Rod Stewart impersonator.

"I think you got tricked.

"You're in Times Square.

"It's a lot of people dressing up like celebs,

and they charge money for you to take a photo."

"Oh, he didn't charge me."

I was like, "What?"

Which made me even more upset,

because now I know for sure this person is crazy.

Whoever this person is that's impersonating Rod Stewart

is doing it for free.

This dude wakes up every day

and puts on the Rod Stewart,

puts on the mullet and the sequined jacket

and just walks through fucking family restaurants,

tricking people.

What kind of sick bastard...

I understand being an impressionist,

but do it for money.

Do it 'cause you got a talent.

But just to do it so you can take selfies

with 60-year-old women, that's foul.

That's some creepy-ass behavior, man.

Me and my mom, we still going back and forth about it.

"It is Rod Stewart.

"Y'all just don't want to acknowledge the fact

"that I met Rod Stewart.

Y'all jealous."

So I laid down the gauntlet,

and I print up a picture of Rod Stewart,

the real Rod Stewart, and I bring it

into the kitchen, and I lay it down

on the counter next to the TGI Friday's Rod Stewart.

[laughter]

I did. I laid the real Rod Stewart here,

and then next to him

was the Jack Daniel's chicken and shrimp Rod Stewart.

And my mama looks at the pictures,

and she look, and she look...

And then her face dropped.

And...

and...

[laughter]

You evil as fuck over there.

[laughter]

My mama is sad, and you're laughing.

[laughter]

And I felt bad.

Like, I legitimately felt bad because the truth

of the matter is it didn't matter

if it was Rod Stewart or not.

She believed it was Rod Stewart.

The shit made her happy. Let her have her moment.

But I was so determined to be right

that, in the process, I hurt my mom's feelings,

and, thankfully, it would be a couple years,

but I got a shot at redemption because

I did some shows in London, and my mom asked me, you know,

"Hey, I've never been to England.

Can I roll with you?"

And I was like, you know, "Fuck it--

you a good wingman. Let's roll."

[laughter]

Shit, my mom cool as hell.

I was like, "Let's go to England."

And we're in this department store in London called Harrods.

Harrods of London.

It's one of the most prestigious department stores.

It's like nothing you-- there's nothing in America

that even compares to it.

I don't even know how to put it into words.

It's like, take the biggest shopping center you know

and on top of that, put another shopping center

and then on top of that, put luxury goods,

and on top of that, put a pet store,

and then on top of that, put a grocery store.

Like, you can get everything in the store.

It's just a prestigious asshole, like, there's floors

of this place where it's just literally $20,000 dresses.

That's every rack. It's just $20,000 dresses.

Like, you got off the elevator, and you just like,

"This is not my floor," then you step back on.

You go, ding, ding. [mimics elevator door closing]

[laughter]

Well, me and my mom got a pastime that we do together.

We go and we look at shit we can't afford.

So we on the expensive dress floor,

and my mom was looking at all these gowns or whatever,

and one of the sales associates from Harrods comes over,

talks to me and my mom. She goes...

[with British accent] "Pardon me, we're gonna

have to ask"-- first of all,

my British accent is horrible, okay?

Accents ain't what I do, all right?

"Pardon me, we're gonna have to ask you

politely to leave."

Yeah, so, at first, I thought it was on some race shit.

I'm like, "Whatchu mean, white lady?"

[laughter]

"First show I did, Oprah Winfrey liked that,

"and now you're gonna-- you think I ain't got the money

"to buy one of these dresses?

"Bitch, I've been on BET 'Comic View.'

You know how much money I got?"

Like...

just making up credits,

arguing with this lady.

And she goes... [with British accent]

"No, no, no, no, you're welcome to come back in a couple

"of hours, yeah, but we have a shopper who has reserved

this entire floor to shop with a little bit of privacy."

[laughter]

I go, "Who? Who the fuck can afford

to reserve the $20,000 dress floor?"

She goes, "Rod Stewart."

[laughter]

And I turn to my mom,

and she heard it.

And she had this look on her face, and I can't--

I don't even know how to describe this look, but it's--

when you see the toy you really want for Christmas

and you're trying to get your mama to--

[stammering]

Like, that's how my mama looked.

Like Denzel before he cries in movies.

[whimpering]

Fucking bottom lip.

[stammering]

I go, "I got you, Joyce.

I got you."

So I turn over.

I see Rod Stewart approaching,

and Rod Stewart looks exactly

how you think he looks in person:

fucking amazing.

He didn't even touch the floor.

This nigga was floating.

He was just floating through..

[as Rod Stewart] ♪ If you like my body ♪

Like, I do, Rod. I like your body.

Like, I get it now.

[laughter]

He had his own breeze.

You know how rich you got to be

to have a breeze that precedes you?

Nigga, I smelled Rod Stewart before I saw him.

It was...

[laughter]

Rod Stewart is 30 feet off of me.

His security detail is 10 feet ahead of him,

and I'm trying to figure out

how I'm gonna get through these fucking dudes,

and I try to get--get up with one of 'em.

And he goes, "No, mate."

I ain't even opened my mouth yet.

Security dude says, "No, mate."

I go, "Listen, man."

[sighs]

[laughter]

"I don't know how to explain this to you,

"but that's my mama over there.

She's a huge fan."

"I said no, mate. Keep it moving, yeah?

All right. No worries."

No, that's the trick shit British people do.

They say something fucked up to you,

then they say "no worries" right behind it.

And I'm like, "No, bitch. Yes worries.

Yes worries. I have worries."

[laughter]

And it's getting a little testy between me and this dude,

so I already know the picture ain't gonna happen,

'cause I'm an asshole at this point.

And--and in Rod Stewart's defense,

this dude is in full family mode.

This is not the time to disturb anybody

while they're out shopping.

The dude literally reserved an entire floor

so he could avoid motherfuckers like me.

So... [laughter]

I understand--I wasn't mad at him, but we locked eyes

for a second-- for a brief second.

For three seconds,

I was eye to eye with the only thing my mother

has never spoken negatively about.

[laughter]

And I know I'm not getting a picture,

so I just said, "Hey, man, did you ever eat at a TGI Friday's

in Times Square?"

[laughter]

I told you that wasn't Rod Stewart!

I'm Roy Wood Jr.

Thank you very much.

Trump Is Right to End DACA, Because It Is Unconstitutional - Duration: 3:15.

All right, I want to talk about DACA for a second. That's the Deferred Action for

Childhood Arrivals. It's the unconstitutional executive order issued

by President Obama, I don't like five years ago -- five, six

years ago -- so when, when President Trump announced that he was going to end DACA,

what happened -- which is absurd -- is that somebody sued somebody and a court,

obviously with an activist judge, that court ruled that Trump could not end

daca (which is absurd). If the if Trump wants to stop, he can do that, that's, he's

the president. So given that set of circumstances the White House Counsel or

the or the Solicitor General, who argues cases on behalf of the executive, he

filed a motion with a supreme court saying look let's skip the pending lower

court case because whether we win or they win whoever loses there is going to

appeal to the Supreme Court anyway this is going to the Supreme Court it'll be

there in a year or two anyway let's just do it now and yesterday the Supreme

Court declined they declined to take that expedited hearing they said no it

has to go through the lower court first that happened yesterday and I said I've

seen it you know described as the Supreme Court rebukes Trump or you know

it's it's a loss for Trump I don't necessarily see it that way because

Congress is is supposedly working on this issue right now and if they pass

something then it really will be moot and there'll be no need for the court

case but what really angers me is that we live now in this quasi quasi legal

country the laws apply to some people and not to other people and judges just

make up stuff as they go along you know some people say that Congress failed to

act on the DREAM Act and that's why Obama -- President Obama --

issued his executive order, DACA. That's crazy: they did act -- they didn't

pass it. That is an action. that is an action that they took.

Now, subsequent Congresses can take it back up but you can't say that they

failed to act. Obviously, unless you want it to pass and then you see the that it

was voted down as a failure to pass it. They didn't fail to pass it; they didn't pass it.

This deep-sea mystery is changing our understanding of life | Karen Lloyd - Duration: 13:09.

I'm an ocean microbiologist at the University of Tennessee,

and I want to tell you guys about some microbes

that are so strange and wonderful

that they're challenging our assumptions about what life is like on Earth.

So I have a question.

Please raise your hand if you've ever thought it would be cool

to go to the bottom of the ocean in a submarine?

Yes.

Most of you, because the oceans are so cool.

Alright, now -- please raise your hand

if the reason you raised your hand to go to the bottom of the ocean

is because it would get you a little bit closer

to that exciting mud that's down there.

(Laughter)

Nobody.

I'm the only one in this room.

Well, I think about this all the time.

I spend most of my waking hours

trying to determine how deep we can go into the Earth

and still find something, anything, that's alive,

because we still don't know the answer to this very basic question

about life on Earth.

So in the 1980s, a scientist named John Parkes, in the UK,

was similarly obsessed,

and he came up with a crazy idea.

He believed that there was a vast, deep, and living microbial biosphere

underneath all the world's oceans

that extends hundreds of meters into the seafloor,

which is cool,

but the only problem is that nobody believed him,

and the reason that nobody believed him

is that ocean sediments may be the most boring place on Earth.

(Laughter)

There's no sunlight, there's no oxygen,

and perhaps worst of all,

there's no fresh food deliveries for literally millions of years.

You don't have to have a PhD in biology

to know that that is a bad place to go looking for life.

(Laughter)

But in 2002, [Steven D'Hondt] had convinced enough people

that he was on to something that he actually got an expedition

on this drillship, called the JOIDES Resolution.

And he ran it along with Bo Barker Jørgensen of Denmark.

And so they were finally able to get

good pristine deep subsurface samples

some really without contamination from surface microbes.

This drill ship is capable of drilling thousands of meters underneath the ocean,

and the mud comes up in sequential cores, one after the other --

long, long cores that look like this.

This is being carried by scientists such as myself who go on these ships,

and we process the cores on the ships and then we send them home

to our home laboratories for further study.

So when John and his colleagues

got these first precious deep-sea pristine samples,

they put them under the microscope,

and they saw images that looked pretty much like this,

which is actually taken from a more recent expedition

by my PhD student, Joy Buongiorno.

You can see the hazy stuff in the background.

That's mud. That's deep-sea ocean mud,

and the bright green dots stained with the green fluorescent dye

are real, living microbes.

Now I've got to tell you something really tragic about microbes.

They all look the same under a microscope,

I mean, to a first approximation.

You can take the most fascinating organisms in the world,

like a microbe that literally breathes uranium,

and another one that makes rocket fuel,

mix them up with some ocean mud,

put them underneath a microscope,

and they're just little dots.

It's really annoying.

So we can't use their looks to tell them apart.

We have to use DNA, like a fingerprint,

to say who is who.

And I'll teach you guys how to do it right now.

So I made up some data, and I'm going to show you some data that are not real.

This is to illustrate what it would look like

if a bunch of species were not related to each other at all.

So you can see each species

has a list of combinations of A, G, C and T,

which are the four sub-units of DNA,

sort of randomly jumbled, and nothing looks like anything else,

and these species are totally unrelated to each other.

But this is what real DNA looks like,

from a gene that these species happen to share.

Everything lines up nearly perfectly.

The chances of getting so many of those vertical columns

where every species has a C or every species has a T,

by random chance, are infinitesimal.

So we know that all those species had to have had a common ancestor.

They're all relatives of each other.

So now I'll tell you who they are.

The top two are us and chimpanzees,

which y'all already knew were related, because, I mean, obviously.

(Laughter)

But we're also related to things that we don't look like,

like pine trees and Giardia, which is that gastrointestinal disease

you can get if you don't filter your water while you're hiking.

We're also related to bacteria like E. coli and Clostridium difficile,

which is a horrible, opportunistic pathogen that kills lots of people.

But there's of course good microbes too, like Dehalococcoides ethenogenes,

which cleans up our industrial waste for us.

So if I take these DNA sequences,

and then I use them, the similarities and differences between them,

to make a family tree for all of us

so you can see who is closely related,

then this is what it looks like.

So you can see clearly, at a glance,

that things like us and Giardia and bunnies and pine trees

are all, like, siblings,

and then the bacteria are like our ancient cousins.

But we're kin to every living thing on Earth.

So in my job, on a daily basis,

I get to produce scientific evidence against existential loneliness.

So when we got these first DNA sequences,

from the first cruise, of pristine samples from the deep subsurface,

we wanted to know where they were.

So the first thing that we discovered is that they were not aliens,

because we could get their DNA to line up with everything else on Earth.

But now check out where they go on our tree of life.

The first thing you'll notice is that there's a lot of them.

It wasn't just one little species

that managed to live in this horrible place.

It's kind of a lot of things.

And the second thing that you'll notice,

hopefully, is that they're not like anything we've ever seen before.

They are as different from each other

as they are from anything that we've known before

as we are from pine trees.

So John Parkes was completely correct.

He, and we, had discovered a completely new and highly diverse

microbial ecosystem on Earth

that no one even knew existed before the 1980s.

So now we were on a roll.

The next step was to grow these exotic species in a petri dish

so that we could do real experiments on them

like microbiologists are supposed to do.

But no matter what we fed them,

they refused to grow.

Even now, 15 years and many expeditions later,

no human has ever gotten a single one of these exotic deep subsurface microbes

to grow in a petri dish.

And it's not for lack of trying.

That may sound disappointing,

but I actually find it exhilarating,

because it means there are so many tantalizing unknowns to work on.

Like, my colleagues and I got what we thought was a really great idea.

We were going to read their genes like a recipe book,

find out what it was they wanted to eat and put it in their petri dishes,

and then they would grow and be happy.

But when we looked at their genes,

it turns out that what they wanted to eat was the food we were already feeding them.

So that was a total wash.

There was something else that they wanted in their petri dishes

that we were just not giving them.

So by combining measurements from many different places

around the world,

my colleagues at the University of Southern California,

Doug LaRowe and Jan Amend,

were able to calculate that each one of these deep-sea microbial cells

requires only one zeptowatt of power,

and before you get your phones out, a zepto is 10 to the minus 21,

because I know I would want to look that up.

Humans, on the other hand,

require about 100 watts of power.

So 100 watts is basically if you take a pineapple

and drop it from about waist height to the ground 881,632 times a day.

If you did that and then linked it up to a turbine,

that would create enough power to make me happen for a day.

A zeptowatt, if you put it in similar terms,

is if you take just one grain of salt

and then you imagine a tiny, tiny, little ball

that is one thousandth of the mass of that one grain of salt

and then you drop it one nanometer,

which is a hundred times smaller than the wavelength of visible light,

once per day.

That's all it takes to make these microbes live.

That's less energy than we ever thought would be capable of supporting life,

but somehow, amazingly, beautifully,

it's enough.

So if these deep-subsurface microbes

have a very different relationship with energy than we previously thought,

then it follows that they'll have to have

a different relationship with time as well,

because when you live on such tiny energy gradients,

rapid growth is impossible.

If these things wanted to colonize our throats and make us sick,

they would get muscled out by fast-growing streptococcus

before they could even initiate cell division.

So that's why we never find them in our throats.

Perhaps the fact that the deep subsurface is so boring

is actually an asset to these microbes.

They never get washed out by a storm.

They never get overgrown by weeds.

All they have to do is exist.

Maybe that thing that we were missing in our petri dishes

was not food at all.

Maybe it wasn't a chemical.

Maybe the thing that they really want,

the nutrient that they want, is time.

But time is the one thing that I'll never be able to give them.

So even if I have a cell culture that I pass to my PhD students,

who pass it to their PhD students, and so on,

we'd have to do that for thousands of years

in order to mimic the exact conditions of the deep subsurface,

all without growing any contaminants.

It's just not possible.

But maybe in a way we already have grown them in our petri dishes.

Maybe they looked at all that food we offered them and said,

"Thanks, I'm going to speed up so much

that I'm going to make a new cell next century.

Ugh.

(Laughter)

So why is it that the rest of biology moves so fast?

Why does a cell die after a day

and a human dies after only a hundred years?

These seem like really arbitrarily short limits

when you think about the total amount of time in the universe.

But these are not arbitrary limits.

They're dictated by one simple thing,

and that thing is the Sun.

Once life figured out how to harness the energy of the Sun

through photosynthesis,

we all had to speed up and get on day and night cycles.

In that way, the Sun gave us both a reason to be fast

and the fuel to do it.

You can view most of life on Earth like a circulatory system,

and the Sun is our beating heart.

But the deep subsurface is like a circulatory system

that's completely disconnected from the Sun.

It's instead being driven by long, slow geological rhythms.

There's currently no theoretical limit on the lifespan of one single cell.

As long as there is at least a tiny energy gradient to exploit,

theoretically, a single cell could live

for hundreds of thousands of years or more,

simply by replacing broken parts over time.

To ask a microbe that lives like that to grow in our petri dishes

is to ask them to adapt to our frenetic, Sun-centric, fast way of living,

and maybe they've got better things to do than that.

(Laughter)

Imagine if we could figure out how they managed to do this.

What if it involves some cool, ultra-stable compounds

that we could use to increase the shelf life

in biomedical or industrial applications?

Or maybe if we figure out the mechanism that they use

to grow so extraordinarily slowly,

we could mimic it in cancer cells and slow runaway cell division.

I don't know.

I mean, honestly, that is all speculation,

but the only thing I know for certain

is that there are a hundred billion billion billlion

living microbial cells

underlying all the world's oceans.

That's 200 times more than the total biomass of humans on this planet.

And those microbes have a fundamentally different relationship

with time and energy than we do.

What seems like a day to them

might be a thousand years to us.

They don't care about the Sun,

and they don't care about growing fast,

and they probably don't give a damn about my petri dishes ...

(Laughter)

but if we can continue to find creative ways to study them,

then maybe we'll finally figure out what life, all of life, is like on Earth.

Thank you.

(Applause)

This Sweet Pair Is The Longest Married Couple in America, They Just Made History - Duration: 2:21.

This Sweet Pair Is The Longest Married Couple in America, They Just Made History

There are lots of people out there giving love advice, but probably none as wise as

John and Ann Betar.

The couple has been married a whopping 85 years and is America's longest-married couple.

The couple was married in 1932, against Ann's father's wishes.

No, they weren't supposed to marry–Ann's father had originally planned for her to wed

a much older man, but the two eloped without his permission.

Now John and Ann have teamed up with home services company Handy to answer all sorts

of questions about love and marriage, and making both last.

"We struggled in the beginning, but, luckily, we were content with what we had.

It's just important to be content with what you have," is John's advice.

"You have to like a person before you love them.

We were good friends," said Ann.

"Everyone was hopping mad, and my wife's aunt consoled my father-in-law by telling

him not to worry, the marriage won't last," said John.

Now the couple are great-grandparents who are now 106 and 102 years old!

Some of their advice included how to keep love alive for so long.

Ann says, "It's a lifelong thing.

How do you define love?

Through actions, understanding, little things…He loves the whole world.

He doesn't think about disliking anybody.

I don't either."

John said, "I wish I knew!

It's natural.

An understanding."

At their most recent anniversary celebration, their family surprised them with a ride in

the same model car they drove in on their first date, a Ford Roadster.

"Like old times," John said to Ann before he kissed her.

Ann also has advice.

"Listen to one another no matter what the situation is," she said.

"We're not arguing, we're listening and we've always listened."

The couple has 16 grandchildren and another dozen grandchildren to dote on, and they plan

on never parting.

"We'll be together forever," said John.

Ann added, "Somewhere we will be."

What is a Shoestring Budget? - Duration: 4:03.

English Winners, have you ever heard the phrase shoestring budget? We operate on a

shoestring budget. We operate on a shoestring budget. Until

we have some customers, we are on a shoestring budget. Until we have some

customers, we're on a shoestring budget. A budget is how much money you plan to

spend within a frame of time. For instance, a monthly budget is how much

money you plan to spend in one month. And a weekly budget is how much money you

plan to spend in a week. Now, a shoestring budget means very little money. You have

very little money. And so your goal is to spend as little money as possible; spend

no money, if you can. If there's anything that you normally pay people to do,

instead do it yourself, or don't do it at all, so you save the money and don't

spend it. That's what it means to be on a shoestring budget. See, shoe strings are

very cheap. They're, like, less than one American dollar in many places. And so,

when someone's operating on a shoestring budget, that means they're trying to

spend very little - almost no money - that is why it is called a shoestring budget.

Now, you can travel, live, run a business, retire, or do many, many things on a

shoestring budget. But keep in mind, a shoestring budget is not something

people usually choose to do, right? They do it because they don't have the

resources, right? And if you don't have the resources, you have no choice but to

do a shoestring budget. However, once you get past that shoestring budget phase -

and I hope you do - then you have more money. You're able to outsource jobs to

other people. You're able to pay for higher quality. You're able to

do things that are going to make things more comfortable - or more easy - for you in

the future. One example of a shoestring budget idea is: some people go to college

and pay tens of thousands of dollars - or hundreds of thousands of dollars - to

learn something. And other people... they just go to the public library, and they

read the same books that the people in college read, and they gain the same

education - through books - that the college students would. But the difference is,

they spend ZERO. Because a public library, in most countries, doesn't cost any money.

Now, you may not get the degree (from going to a university), but you gain the

same knowledge, and sometimes that can make you more effective, because you can

get the knowledge using less time and less money. So, that's one example of a

shoestring budget. Have you ever done something on a shoestring budget? I want

to know about it. Please tell me down in the comments below. Please LIKE, SHARE, and

SUBSCRIBE to this channel because it will help me a lot in growing this

channel to the very top of the YouTube education section. Here is another video

on business idioms, and another video I think you might like. So check those out,

and I will see you on those next lessons.
