Liverpool FC Opinion - Henderson & Can: Why Can't Liverpool Supporters Rate Both?

There seems to be a bizarre, unwritten rule among much of the modern day Liverpool fanbase: it is a sin to rate both Jordan Henderson and Emre Can.

Quite where this has stemmed from remains a mystery, but there seem to be two distinct camps, with very few rating the duo in roughly equal measure.

Football in 2017 is as tribal as it has ever been throughout history, but sadly, that tribalism doesn't only exist among rival supporters.

Nowadays, fans of the same team spend their days squabbling over their love and dislike of certain players, with everyone out to prove a point. At Liverpool, it is as prevalent as anywhere.

It really is school playground antics, with social media platforms such as Twitter not helping matters in the slightest.

If a player you rate highly has a bad day at the office, his critics will pelt you with messages, and likewise, if an individual you don't rate has a blinder, a similarly venomous response will head in your direction.

This is where the Henderson/Can debacle comes into play. These are two very good footballers, both of whom are more than worthy of representing Liverpool, yet there seems to be an ongoing debate regarding the pair.

Perhaps the fact that they are both fighting for that defensive midfield berth next season plays a part, with Jurgen Klopp likely to find it very difficult to accommodate both in his side regularly in 2017/18.

Rather than simply putting forward a level-headed argument for their preferred player to start, though, sly digs always have to come at the expense of the other.

There is a definite snobbery involved in both instances, with both the Henderson and the Can admirers guilty of it.

Those who rate the Liverpool captain cite his consistency, leadership and understated nature in the role, before lazily claiming Can is just a wrecking ball who blows hot and cold too often, making rash decisions and losing his head.

On the flip side, those in favour of Can turn their noses up at Henderson because he isn't as fashionable or as aesthetically pleasing as they would like in their beloved 'DM' role, before making out Can is somehow 10 times the player his skipper is.

Both of these arguments are total nonsense, even if an element of them can be true, at times. Can, in particular, has a very dedicated following, with any criticism of the German met with a giant wave of defensiveness.

They ignore the fact that he is yet to have a long run of excellent form in his three years at Anfield, and that his performances were very poor before an excellent end to 2016/17.

Those who are incapable of praising him, however, will completely ignore the fact that he was carrying an injury during that bad run around the turn of the year.

Henderson, meanwhile, has arguably become overrated because he is so underrated, if that makes sense. His supporters have grown so tired of the stick that comes his way, that subconsciously they rate everything he does that little bit higher than it deserves.

They will also use the injury excuse to take the heat off the 27-year-old but gloss over that subject when Can is the talking point.

The bottom line is that we should be in a position where we think highly of both Henderson and Can, both of whom can continue to flourish under Klopp.

Henderson has grown so much since a dire early period in a Reds shirt, improving season upon season and becoming one of the first names on the team-sheet during the team's most impressive spell last season.

Few players have shown more heart in moments of adversity to reach the level he is now at, and he should be liked and lauded in equal measure. His injury problems are a cause for concern, sadly. .

Can is a player of enormous potential, and he has shown many times what he can offer in the middle of the park.

When he is on song, he has the ability to boss a midfield battle, whether it be through brute strength, pace and power or technique. If you had any reservations about the latter, just watch that Watford goal over and over again.

Many clubs would love to have both Henderson and Can at their disposal, but such is the stubborn nature of fans these days, they seem unwilling to shower both with praise at the time.

Are they both the undoubted midfield solution moving forward? Who knows. Can they be improved upon by a really top class midfielder? Absolutely.

There is no shame in that, and it is taking nothing away from two players who have been definite success stories at Anfield.

Having a favourite out of the two is only natural – I prefer Henderson because he is a more consistent performer who uses the ball quicker, but Can has many great attributes – but there shouldn't be this concerted effort to only rate one or the other.

Rather than mock Henderson for "not being good enough as a DM" when his passing eludes him for once, or laying into Can for a few sloppy displays when he is still very much maturing, we should be showing them both the affection they deserve.

5 things Chelsea can expect from new wonderkid Ethan Ampadu - Duration: 5:50.

5 things Chelsea can expect from new wonderkid Ethan Ampadu

Chelsea have got themselves another wonderkid with 16-year-old Ethan Ampadu having agreed to join the Blues from Exeter City.

The midfielder burst on to the scene last season with the League Two side, making his debut aged 15 years 10 months and 26 days.

Along with Billy Gilmour and Daishawn Redan, Chelsea are putting together their latest batch of superb footballers to mount an attack on the FA Youth Cup.

But what could he bring to the Blues? Our sister paper, Devon Live have run the rule over what Ampadus particular skill-set may be.

A cool head with technical ability. Ampadu has garnered attention for his technical abilities and calmness in matches.

In his first appearance at the club, he played at centre-back alongside the experience of Matt Oakley, who played in the 2003 FA Cup final for Southampton against eventual winners Arsenal.

Manager Paul Tisdale praised the teenagers display, comparing him directly to his veteran defensive partner: Often these 15- or 16-year-old players who come through early tend to be, as a sweeping generalisation, a quick sparky winger where youre not risking too much by playing him.

When its a centre-back, you have to trust them, and the biggest compliment I could give him is that he plays like a 35-year-old, he plays like Matt Oakley.

Thats not normally the English way; the English way is that we like drama, we like spark and instants, but we dont often encourage and cultivate subtle, class players..

Versatility.

Ampadu started his City senior career at centre-back, yet is actually naturally a midfielder. The Grecians had been struck with an injury crisis at the back, meaning they were forced into fielding the then-15-year-old in defence.

He excelled in the position, being able to see the game being played out in front of him, and he was deployed in a similar position when he made the step up to Wales under-19s.

However, for City, he was eventually moved forward into a midfield position, where he continued to impress thanks to his all-action brand of football and good ball playing ability.

The remarkable thing is hes not necessarily a centre-back, Tisdale said after the players debut.

Hes one of those players that can play in four or five positions – Im not sure what his best position will be and nor probably will he but that also tells you what a good player he is..

Plays with no fear. Ampadu is a player who is not afraid to get his hands dirty or shirk a challenge.

He will often get physical with players when challenging for a header – memorably enraging Brentford striker Scott Hogan who was consistently beaten in the air by the teenager – whilst he has also been booked for time wasting when not on the field and for hauling down a Colchester United player on a counter-attack.

An international tug of war. The 16-year-old is eligible to play for England, Wales, Republic of Ireland and Ghana.

He has played for both Englands and Wales youth teams, with Ghana also offering him the chance to play international football, but it appears that he has pinned his colours to the mast of the Dragons.

He trained with Chris Colemans senior squad prior to them jetting off to the European Championships in France before winning his countrys young player of the year award for 2016.

He was named in Colemans stand by squad for their World Cup qualifier against Republic of Ireland in March and was going to be named in the under-20s prestigious Toulon Tournament until it was discovered he was too young to take part.

Despite this, he was also included in a senior training squad last month.

Longevity. Lets face it – Chelsea do not have the best record when it comes to integrating youngsters into their first team.

However, with Ampadu, if they treat him right, they have a unique prospect – a 16-year-old who has already experienced first-team football at a decent level and performed well.

Whilst he is by no means the finished product, at 16, and with first-team experience already behind him, he looks well set for a long career at the highest level.

Chelseas challenge, now, is to make sure he develops on the experience he has already got.

New probiotics can be key to solve problem deriving from modern day kidney treatment - Duration: 1:56.

A research team has developed a new treatment method for kidney diseases... that promises

to be safer and more effective than existing medicines.

Cho Sung-min has the details.

Korean researchers have developed a new type of probiotic bacteria that can enhance the

efficiency in treating patients suffering from kidney diseases.

They developed the probiotics by extracting and combining lactobacillus, which is essential

when making fermented foods like Korean kimchi, with a particularly high phosphorus absorption

rate.

This development comes as a big step forward to improving modern day kidney treatment.

Two conventional steps in curing renal patients are through dialysis and medication.

Dialysis removes phosphorous acid and other wastes from the blood stream.

A high level of phosphorous acid is a common symptom found in kidney patients as it prompts

blood to clot.

Medication on the other hand, helps retain the level of phosphorous acid low.

The main problem with medication however, is calcium concentration.

The medicine helps keep the phosphorous level down, but calcium in the medicine has a tendency

to stiffen the blood vessels, which can create cardiovascular and neurological

side effects, such as heart enlargement.

According to the research team, the probiotics when made into medicine can lessen such side

effects as the bacteria would absorb the phosphorous

acid without damaging the internal organs.

The team said the probiotics have trimmed down 22 percent of phosphorus acid in blood

and 39 percent of toxins through urine during a 6-month test on rats.

A couple more clinical trials will be further conducted on the probiotics, and the research

team is aiming to continue its research to develop health functional foods using the

probiotics.

IN FOUCS (6/27/17 - US NEWS) In East Chicago, Residents Can't Drink Their Water or Play Outside - Duration: 2:48.

In East Chicago, Residents Can't Drink Their Water or Play Outside

The Atlantic released a video yesterday that focuses on the lead crisis in East Chicago, Indiana.

The Black and Hispanic residents of the West Calumet Public Housing Complex in Indiana aren't faring much better than Flint.

Their soil and water contain lead levels hundreds of times above what the EPA deems safe.

Residents were supposed to evacuate from the housing complex by March 31, 2017. The soil was originally contaminated back in 1985.

It wasn't until 2009 that the agency took action.

Demetra Turner is still living at the unit.

A month after she moved in, the EPA informed her and neighbors that their soil and water was contaminated with lead and arsenic.

Turner spends at least $300-400 a month on water. She uses it for cooking, bathing, cleaning, everything.

"You know I know that I can't stay here," she says in the video.

"...and who would want to stay here with everything that's going on now?"

"But the only thing that I'm asking is allow me to find somewhere to go one, and allow my kids to finish school."

"I am afraid that I'm going to be evicted."

The city has provided section 8 housing vouchers, but Turner has had trouble finding an apartment that accepts the voucher.

What is Love? | Episode. 12 Can I be LGBTQIA+ and religious? - Duration: 37:04.

don't think I've ever been so terrified of anything in my entire life. We really

questioned whether or not to go here and I've tried to pull this

episode so many times but it needs to be done as long as religion is going to be

a part of society as long as an apparently secular Australia is going to

allow religion into government if it could somehow be interpreted a little

more commonly from this point of view I can't imagine how different our world

would be not just in regards to homosexuality but to everything

furthermore I know what it's like to lose relationships or experience family

conflict because of religion so if this helps just one kid understand that it

will be okay or helps one family to be more understanding then the inevitable

backlash of this episode will be more than worth it. In light of this I would

like to address some statements made by some religious communities about feeling

bullied or intimidated by the lgbtqia+ community. I can only speak to myself

here I'm not trying to represent the community as a whole but I would like to

apologize if you truly feel like you have been bullied or victimized by the

community because I know what it's like to be bullied and victimized in

public for who I am and who I love and what I stand for and I would never want

that to anyone regardless of who you are, what you think of me, or what you think

who I'm in love with. This is not here to encourage anyone to become

religious, this is not here to encourage anyone to disregard their religion and

I'm going to preempt you yes it is biased of course it's biased we see

enough of the against arguments every day so here's a taste of something

different. The people who wanted to be a part of this episode are nothing short of

of inspiring. They are the real reason why this episode has come to fruition

because of their incredible passion and faith that we can make this world a

better place whether or not you are religious I think we can all agree in

the importance of faith not in a religious sense maybe but faith in who

you are or where you're going or in your friends or your family or in this life

so I am going to have faith that it will be known that this is coming from a

place of love and I'm going to have faith that this is going to help people

and I have that this is going to make a difference

hi I'm Jessica Brown Sankey I'm twenty four and a half years old

and identify as a Christ follower but also a fiercely passionate South African Australian

hello my name is Chenelle l I'm 19 years old I'm human and I'm gay

Hi I'm Angela I'm 55 years old and I identify as heterosexual and Christian

and the mother of a gay son

hi I'm Nick I'm 24 years old and I'm a same-sex

attractive male

hi my name is Sami I am 23 years old I am a Muslim and I am straight

Hey I'm Courtney I'm 22 and I'm a straight female Christian

I'm Caitlin I'm 22 and I identify as pansexual

my name is Josh I'm 29 and I identify as queer

and my name is Daniel I'm 26 and identify as gay

I'm Rachel or Rae I'm 24 from Melbourne

and I am non-binary, more specifically demi femme or gender fluid

and I'm also pansexual and a Christian

Shalom veAhava brothers others and sisters my name is Rayne and I'm 31

years old I am unapologetically queer and Jewish I am a bisexual I am a

non-binary female and I am married I occupy schrödinger's gender being

simultaneously cis and trans and I identify as a camp metrosexual butch

Dyke and a strong and powerful woman

I grew up here in Melbourne in Kensington

I grew up in Brizzy with my

two brothers and my sister and my lovely parents

I grew up in South Africa in

Johannesburg, Midrand, yeah I was born bred and raised there all my life up until

four years ago

so I'm a practicing Jew I now attend a progressive shul and it's

a fabulous awesome community and I love it

my family were go to church every week kind of people

my uncle is actually a priest so in my family we are Catholic and everything

but we're not really hardline conservative or anything but it is

considered a part of our family you know go to church every week and it's more

about community in a way than the religious thing

as long as I can

remember I was a Christian school, church, youth groups, summer camps, all Christian

I mean I loved it that was where all my friends were and that was my entire

experience so to me I thought I completely get this I understand what it

means to be a Christian I get God, God's real

I'm totally signed up and then I mean I guess when I really faced it at 14 I had

this other thing to deal with I guess the problem was in all those circles I

had nowhere to turn for I mean didn't have YouTube, I didn't have books or

magazines or anything that I could think of I had to work it out all for myself

which was just impossible because how do you put that on a 14 year old you know I

just thought all I've been told since I was little is that God is real he loves

me only thing I know about being gay is that it's wrong or a joke

Well then I have three options either God isn't real there's something horribly

wrong with me or somewhere in here Christians have this wrong and I think I

sort of tried out all three and in the end I mean I worked my way to deciding

that it was the third I think Christians have misunderstood this you know I had a

church where I could go to hear about God or then I started doing theater and

there were gay people everywhere that's where I wanted to be because

finally here's some exposure to this and people that understand this and people

that I wouldn't have had to come out to ever because it's just understood I guess

so I still had in the back of my mind the possibility that Nick was gay

and I believed that if he was I'd be perfectly all right with it

I remember feeling at the start like oh my god what does this mean for me and my

relationship with God because what if what if those voices within the church

at say homosexuality is really terrible and you know gays are going to go to

hell and stuff well what if they're right and I hadn't really even considered that for a

minute because that hadn't been my perspective and it hadn't been my

position

well you didn't have to

I didn't have to I didn't have to think about it it was

just like well no no that's not right but then suddenly having a gay son I had

to go well what if they're right and so I had to think about it and I went

through a stage where I thought do I have to pick between loving my son and

God and for a while I saw that as perhaps a potential and I chose my son I

thought well if I have to give up God because God would throw my son into hell

for being who he is and I've known who he is sice he was a very little boy and

he's beautiful I thought if God would throw this person into hell for being who he is

then I don't want to part that God now there was huge grief involved in that

decision because faith was very important to me God was very important

to me and so there was this time where I thought alright I have to choose but I

choose love I choose to love my son and in that moment I realized in choosing

love I had chosen God because the fundamental principle of Christian faith

is that God is love and I thought if my fierce protective unconditional love of

my son shows me anything it shows me what God is like in that

moment of loving my son so totally that is probably the closest I will ever come

to knowing what God is like so I don't have to choose between God and my son in

fact if I truly believe that God is good and I

truly believe that God is love then there is no safer place for my son to be

then in the arms of my god I rested in that understanding for quite a while

before I had the courage to go and look at Scripture and what was it really saying

I had been a Christian for 10 years I just remember crossing Chapel

Street to go to Poof Doof my heart was just like ah holy shit what am i doing

and giving over my like driver's license to the guy at the front was like handing

over my my soul to Satan [laughs] that's what it felt like and as soon as I stepped into

that club I was like I feel so okay and I kissed the guy for

the first time ever when I was there and as soon as I left that place I went back

home the next morning and I was just like so I'm done I'm ready to go I'm

ready to do this so I went and told my pastor I went and quit my job everything

happened within a day

- I understand your faith is a very important part of your life

- and your family life but there is also a fabulous member of the family

who identifies as LGBT+, so there's huge perception or perhaps an understanding

that these two cannot go hand in hand

I think that what has happened is that

that is a result of a tragic and a destructive interpretation of Scripture

and I think that for me I don't see any problem with being homosexual and being

a person of faith

It breaks my heart that that is the perception I'm like I was saying I'm

deeply saddened like I'm heartbroken that I have friends gay friends who feel that

they are rejected or disqualified from knowing God or being part of a church

because of who they are it's not the heart of my God the God that I know is a

kind and loving and gracious God who loves his people and is passionately

protective over the LGBT community particularly I think in this time where

they've experienced a lot of rejections like I just know that's not God's heart

I guess just because of my Muslim upbringing I was always taught that

we're all equal that you don't discriminate against anybody and just

from like the prophets teachings like there is not one you know story there's not

one Hadith about the Prophet ever using any kind of discrimination against

anybody and we're meant to emulate the way He behaved and so it's not about you know who

you go to bed with at night, who you're attracted to, it's about the way you

treat people, the way you treat yourself, the way you know you show love and

Islam is about peace and it's about unity and so when I hear you know oh

well this person's gay or this person's this and whatever and we can't you know

communicate with that person or not or we need to you know ostracize people

that's just not how I was raised it's not how I was taught it you know to

behave that was never in a discussion at our house we never talked about

sexuality we never talked about race anything it was just you're a human

that's it and respect

this is nothing new in the church the church has had a

pattern of this kind of challenge and it can often take hundreds of years for

that clash to be reconciled. In the situation of whether the earth was the

center of creation or whether that was returned around the Sun it took four

hundred years for the church to come to the point where everyone just accepted

as fact the fact that the earth rotated around the Sun it took a long time

scripture seemed to say that the earth was the center of creation and that

everything else was fixed in its place so when Galileo discovered that wasn't

true all hell broke loose so people tend to fall into one of three reactions, one

is well the science must be wrong because scripture is always right so

science has some kind of conspiracy to destroy faith so have to chuck out

silence, or well that just proves that Scripture is a load of rubbish so we

have a new understanding of truth, scriptures wrong, throw out scripture. Or

there is a third path which is that people who both respect science and who

respect Scripture go and do the hard hard work of going well what does

scripture actually say. Is there somewhere reconciling these two

seemingly difficult truths. So with this issue of sexual orientation I think that

science, psychology, medicine, whatever has has told us that this is a normal, this

is a expected part of the human condition, in the animal world, everywhere, it's

just a phenomenon that exists and so people are now in this spin. There is a

growing number of respected theologians who are saying when you go back to

Scripture and you study Scripture the context in which it was written, what is

being referred to, there really isn't a problem. There is room for holding both

understandings that scripture is to be respected and that homosexuality is part

of God's creation

I don't believe my gender preference affects my faith at all as a

Christian we're supposed to all surrender to love because in the end

love conquers all so for anybody to judge from a place of ignorance wouldn't

be living by true Christian values you know God loves us and I just don't

understand why some people would think otherwise. Love is so much more powerful

than a lot of us realize and if everybody in the world just loved each

other and surrendered to love our world would be perfect. I'm not sure why we

would do otherwise. So the church I'm in the motto is to just come as you are and

so me and all my friends and everybody within the church have come as they are

and we're fully accepted in no matter what shape, form, sexuality, race, anything. We're

just all there to be loved by God. That's all there is to it, simple [laughs]

It was really hard for me to reconcile my sexuality because of my upbringing and

because of the homophobic nature of my upbringing and even being married

to my wife being in a long-term same-sex relationship, reconciling my sexuality

was really, really hard and even if you asked me two years ago my biggest fear

in life was the answer would be that I might be gay and I'm in a same-sex

relationship and that's still my biggest fear so actually being a part of my shul

my synagogue was really affirming because they don't care you know it's

it's a egalitarian. Queer trans whatever they just don't care it's not relevant

you participate as your authentic self and you really figure out what is

authentic to yourself they really affirmed my sexuality and

made it okay and and supported me and just being me

so I think they're kind of the resolution of it as opposed to what we

generally hear is this kind of bombarding force which my childhood was so I

experienced both but yeah I've definitely come to that space

thanks to them

It's a really rocky relationship being LGBT and being religious especially

for a lot of Christians who are older because there's still - there's definitely stigma

that it's a sin and it's unnatural and therefore it's a sin

and there are bit']s in the Bible which if you

interpret in particular ways will definitely give you that impression

But if you interpret in other ways it's not saying that at all

I went to World Youth Day and I saw the Pope and all

that kind of stuff and like it was this really big deal. The people absolutely

were what made it for me because it was like all these young people who were

coming together for a common reason and it felt really powerful but at the same

time there were aspects of it that kind of made me feel uncomfortable in like

you know we were expected to go to talks about chastity and sexuality and it was

very selling a definition of what it meant to be Catholic or Christian and

having to be that to fit in. The topic of sexuality came up and these people were

all my age and a few of them were making the comment oh yeah it's fine if people

are gay I don't care just so long as I don't have to see it and I I was kind of

really taken aback because even at the time even though I wasn't open about my

sexuality or didn't even identify it within myself

I kind of was like but if you really accept and love someone no matter who

they are why are you saying that they have to hide it you know and I never

thought that that was acceptable especially because I like what religion

stands for. Most of them have it their core love everybody but I think as I've

gotten older I've become more detached from the structure of religion and link

myself more to the spirituality because the structural aspects of the religion

can be really exclusive and they don't really follow that love everybody no

matter what mentality. I do still feel connected to that message of like love

respect, you know, helps those in need you know because the church does stand

for a lot of good things in that you know you see in Australia in particular

we have a lot of churches standing up for refugees but then there's that other

level of but only if they're not gay or if they're not anything other than what

we believe is right

and what I've learned over this last year especially

is that you know a relationship with anything whether its food, whether it's

your boyfriend, whether it's God or whatever you believe

in is something that you need to work on in order to you know keep up with

otherwise you're going to lose that

-I love that I came second to food [laughs]

Food is the most important

- that's where I place you as well

I noticed after those three years of just sort of separating

myself from God completely there was something inside of me that just was

still unhappy with that and it's taken me this last year to go hey just a sec

God really mattered a lot to me I wasn't just faking it or making it up and even

if it was I don't give a shit it's something that matters to me and I think it's up

for each person whether you're gay or straight or whatever to

figure that out for yourself and really come to some kind of completion with you

know so as far as my relationship with God goes now it's something that I can

sit back with and work alongside with him

If there's one thing I've learned as a

Christian it's that when you take the Bible out of context it can be ugly

you can - if you take a section of the Bible or verse and take it often for

face value it can be ugly because if you don't take into consideration that it

was written by people when it was written which is first century Middle

East why it was written why that person wrote at

the time what was going on in their era

It often is quite specific to what's going on

who the Apostle or person who was writing to at that time

The community that they were writing to and what they were writing about

and who they were writing for and

it's really important like you would with any

English text novel to understand the context of the story and what's behind it

and understand what the writer is trying to do

there are many more trained and

scholarly people than myself so I'm not a biblical scholar but there

are what's called the clobber passages there's about six of them where it

appears quite clearly for the Bible to say the sex act between homosexuals is

wrong. What you have to do is you have to look at those six passages. Now six isn't

a lot but it's not nothing. There are certain sex acts that are really

described but when you look closely at them, what they're describing is

sometimes so distant from what we understand as consenting adult loving

relationship between two same-sex attracted people that they bare very

little resemblance I mean there's some acts that are obviously far more what we

would call pedophilia and there are other acts which are to do with idol

worship and these are you know very old texts dealing with a very old culture as

Leviticus writes about you know, he writes about, well gosh there's divorce in the

bible that says like if you divorce you go to Hell. If you study that verse and

if you read in hebrew, what that Hell was in those times was an actual place

It wasn't Hell because you know you go to Hell cause you get divorced

It was Hell that

basically he it was a time when if you died single you wouldn't have a proper

burial because that was what they did in the first century you wouldn't have a

proper burial because you didn't have family and so you would go to hell which

was where they burnt bodies. You read that verse and you go don't get

divorced you'll go to hell, ah no, you've completely misinterpreted that verse

there are words that are only used once or twice in the scriptures that

people aren't actually sure what they mean that they've been translated very

happily as homosexual or something over the years and say well no we know

exactly what that refers to we know what's going on it's homosexuality is bad but

when you look back and go well what is the scripture actually talking about

what is the word being used there and what was meant by it

what is the act being described

one of the clobber passages is about older men and younger boys, well

that's not adult consenting loving homosexual behavior that we would say

well that's exploitation of a minor and if the passages are talking about sexual

temple prostitutes and things like that well then that's got absolutely nothing

to do with loving, consenting relationships either so several of the

clobber passages can just be disregarded quite easily. There's another one is the

reference to Sodom you know where get the word sodomy from what was going on

in that story is gang rape of a guest in the city which is a crime if nothing

else against hospitality [laughs] it's not about loving consensual

relationships. Then there are others that are less clear particularly some New

Testament passages but again biblical scholars who know much more than me

have looked at those passages and said there is room for interpretation here

there is room for doubt

You just don't know what was going on I mean gosh people were

having sex with goats to please Gods back then, I mean gosh times were frickin' crazy

crazy like so you don't know why that was written, a lot of the time God said

like don't mark your body he was saying to people back in Abraham's time it's

because people were cutting themselves as like sacrifice because they were primitive

people who didn't know what like they needed a conscious way of

like atoning because you know like I said, caveman, and so God said stop that

and so people took marking themselves as don't get tattoos

that's what their interpretation was, no, that's not what He was talking

about so that's sort of what I mean like there's a lot of things where it's like

unless you've studied first century Middle East you don't know what's going on

so don't try and understand the things that aren't important, understand what

Jesus made very plain and simple. Love the Lord your God and love people, lay your

life down for people. Those are the two commandments that you need to follow

When we look at you know a lot of you know these countries that do have Muslim majority

we also need to understand like the complexities within their own cultures

and within their own sort of beliefs that predate even Islam like these

cultures have come down with them and we can't ignore the patriarchs as well

like these societies and not get confused between culture and Islam and the Quran

and what it practice - what we practice and what the Quran preaches and we need

to also I feel make these people have responsibilities for what they believe

and make sure that we're not confusing how a Muslim behaves and what the

religion you know really says and the way we're meant to you know behave

this is such a serious sort of situation because you've got people killing

themselves over the fact you know that they can't love someone or they're going

to be marginalized within society and as a Muslim if I can in any way shape or

form help someone not go to that point - there's a saying it says you know in Islam

that saving one life is like saving humanity. If you kill a life or if a life

is lost it's like all of humanity being lost and if we can work towards making

sure that no one is going to that point and that is the greater message of the Quran

so I guess I come from a really conservative background and I brought

that into my Jewish life. I can't get rid of my upbringing it's a part of my

culture so I entered the progressive Jewish space which is very open-minded

and and somewhat quite liberal minded and so that was actually a push for me

and even as a queer person to be to be pushed back on my conservatives ideas

and to question my beliefs and why I believe them was something that they put

onto me in turn I don't necessarily see myself

as conservative as I used to but more a traditionalist and understanding that

progressive Judaism focuses on tradition and questioning why those traditions

exist and why those practices exist and then understanding whether or not they

should exist in this space right here right now

the gender and sexuality stuff really intersects there because traditionally

there was a lot more genders, there was a lot more sexes defined at birth for the

physical differences I think there was five or six different sexes so the

normalcy around that for tradition compared to you know I guess the last

hundred years where people are really quite narrow-minded about these things

it really opens up these ideas and these thoughts and feelings and then you have

to question you're like oh so my ideas around sexuality as a kid are actually

new ideas and they're not old ideas and they're not traditional ideas and so I

had to kind of reassess and go back to tradition and go back to the roots of

these things and that was the way that I really understood it so it's kind of

really exciting we're not inventing something new to make it okay we're

actually going back to tradition and respecting tradition to understand who

we are today

when Jesus came which for me sums up

Christianity was the life of Jesus led and when he came he was asked were the

two greatest - what were the two greatest laws which was basically the Bible at

the time was the law and so they said what were the greatest laws and he said

love the Lord your God with all your heart and soul and mind and strength and

love your neighbor like you love yourself and those the two greatest

Commandments so for me well what's like as a

Christian what's the focus here the couple of times that you read in the

Bible like what the hell's going on there or the hundreds of times you read

about Gods endless love for his people

if you're following in the footsteps of

Jesus he stood up for the minorities and so I just don't understand where it

comes from the whole homophobia thing like that doesn't exist I think it's the

most ridiculous thing I've ever heard

you look at other religions like you

know you've got Muhammad, you look at Jesus, you look at Moses, we don't have any

stories about them ever hurting people, ever, they were the outsiders

The important

thing to note is that Jesus never actually talks about it, he never talks about it and Jesus was definitely

the guy that went around accepting people who were ostracized and society didn't accept

so if we're going to talk about what Jesus would do then that's your answer really

Don't go around telling people they can't be what they are

In the Bible we read about Jesus in the New

Testament and we're constantly reading about how he's having dinner with the

tax collector how he's in communication with all these people that were seen as

the lowest of the low and people that were ostracized from community and

as Christians I think that's what we need to focus on. We're followers of

Jesus and we need to follow what Jesus did and how he acted and if you put that

into a on modern day Jesus would be at Mardi Gras loving you know he would be

out there just showing so much love and that's what we need to do as Christians

and followers of Jesus our job is to accept and our job is to just welcome

and our job is not to hate or judge or ridicule that's just not there's nowhere

in the Bible that says that

this is a conservative Presbyterian American

scholar, biblical scholar, who was once a great critic of the Church, the

Presbyterian Church accepting homosexual ministers and he led the campaign. He was

one of the great scholars that led the campaign and he's continued to look at

Scripture and continued to study the Bible and he's come to the conclusion

that he was wrong and he's now written this book the Bible's yes to same-sex

married. Now this is not some way out radical, liberal, theologian. This is, this is

a really important book because this is straight from the heartland of Orthodox

Christianity you know it's mainline Christianity so there's a whole

new sort of the area of scholarship that is looking at the Bible and saying what is

it really saying and does it have anything to say about homosexual

relationships or queer relationships as we understand them in the 21st century

and there's a lot of people concluding no the Bible has very little

if anything to say about it

there is no condemnation in God. God's not asked us

to change people or point out what that we think is right and wrong in their

life. God's asked us to love people and so I think that yeah for a long time it

was just something they didn't know, but I think it's getting better I think there's an

understanding a softening of hearts towards people from both ends so that's

good it's exciting

the people who have a problem with it are the minority

absolutely, it's the first thing that got me really passionate about this topic I

was in Las Vegas and I was walking down the strip and there was about six people

holding up signs that said you know gays are going to hell and you will be damned

and there was a man on a microphone he was saying the most hatred things and

claiming it in the name of Jesus and I just got so angry and it's still - I've got

goose bumps it just makes me so angry but the thing is they're the ones making

the noise, they're the ones that people are hearing so that's what people's

perception is going to be, they're going to say oh these Christians were standing

out on the strip and they were you know saying all these hatred things they

see the most horrible people but it's just the minority, they're the ones making the

noise, it's our job to make some noise now, it's the majority's job, the loving

people's job, it's our job. To be really open, to be really honest about our faith

we need to make some noise, we need to over drown those minority people

because it's just - it's creating a perception that is false

don't let other people's interpretations of anything and their own insecurities

about sexuality and their closed-mindedness ever let you affect

how you feel and how you treat yourself all you can do is love yourself it's

going to be a tough battle in the sense that you will be met you know with

hostility, it's the truth, it's the sad truth it's something I'm you know I'm

ashamed of a part about that you know part of my community that's like that

but know that you have allies, you just have to find them you know what I

mean there are people out there and I'm a true believer that there are more

good people in this world than bad

your faith shouldn't affect how you live your

life. It's a personal thing, our spirit is our spirit it can't be changed I think

faith is there so people treat others right and with respect so if someone's

not treating you with the respect you deserve then you should reconsider why

they're in your life

I would just say to like I said I feel God is incredibly

passionate about the LGBT community and I'm sorry when there's been a time in a

life where an image of God has been portrayed to them that was mean and ugly

and judgmental and I'm sorry because it's not the God I know he's a good, good

father and he's so kind. A lot of rejection you can experience when

when you're going through something like that from family members or friends you

name it but if no rejection in God and in Jesus there's no disqualification

you do not have to be certain type of person God is so passionate about people

they are people he loves and they're people that have been that there are

poor and afflicted to that this time and and it's not on so I think yeah sorry

There's a prayer by Saint Francis of Assisi and a small part of it says, master grant that I may

never seek so much to be consoled as to console, to be understood as to

understand, and to love - to be loved as to love with

all my soul. So I think my advice would be that the response of us who are

not queer. To people who have who have a different story to our own if we take

that that prayer of Saint Francis, seek to console, seek to understand, and seek to

love then we'll end up with a better world

What is Love? | Episode 13. How can we achieve equality in Australia? - Duration: 32:18.

so that's it but now what can we actually do what can you go out and do

to help bring Australia and this world closer to equality I happen to know a

few cool people who have some ideas but before I let you go thank you so much

for watching from the bottom of my heart and I hope that this helped you in any

shape or form you are so loved now go out there and spread that love and use

what you've learned to educate other people do some good love always wins

so I was born and grew up in Melbourne my parents are from China and they

immigrated here when they were at university so I've lived in Melbourne

all my life best city in the world I work at a firm called EY which is

Ernst & Young and we employ hundreds of thousands of people across the world at

my workplace I'm involved in an internal network called EY unity which aims to

make our workplace a more comfortable environment for our LGBTI colleagues so

we do things like organising events organising ally training for people in

the workplace facilitating discussions getting merchandise out there and

increasing awareness of LGBTI issues we also act as mentors for people who

identify as LGBTI in the workplace in case they need someone to speak to and

our overall aim is to make the workplace as comfortable as possible so that our

people can focus on being productive and doing their work instead of focusing an

energy on trying to hide their true selves so there's some really simple things

that you can do at the workplace to make people feel more accepted and welcome

some things are really cliche like when you ask someone about their weekend

don't assume what gender their partner is so I'll ask like 'are you dating

anyone?' or 'are you seeing anyone?' instead of saying like 'do you have a boyfriend?'

because it's a really simple change but it makes a really big difference in

making people feel accepted the second thing I think is asking respectful

questions so I think when you're someone who's straight who doesn't know a lot of

LGBTI people it can be scary to ask questions because you're afraid of

saying the wrong thing but I think 9 times out of 10 it's actually easier for

you to just ask the question show you're curious and show that you're you have an

open mind and are willing to kind of hear what differences you have most of

the time it will work out pretty well I also think that I've become more

comfortable over time with calling out behaviour that I think is not

appropriate when people say like 'oh my god that's so gay' I'll actually call

them out and say as respectfully as possible 'is there a better word you

can use for that?' or like kindly suggest that they try and find a different word

and like no one at my workplace at least says it in a

derogatory way it's just that no one's ever called them up on it before so I

think that's a really important thing that you can do as well if you're

comfortable with it and the last thing that you can do is be

visible so myself as an ally I try and be as visible as possible so for example

I have a pencil case that has a big rainbow flag on it and it shows you that

you are willing to accept the people around you and being visible can be a

really good way of showing that you can start a conversation so while I'm out at

clients often they'll see my pencil case and be like 'oh that's really great that

EY is doing stuff in that space' and they'll know that they can feel

comfortable around me to talk about whatever they want to I see the role of

an ally kind of from the lens of when I was doing a lot of work in the women in

leadership and women in the workplace space because there's this concept of

male champions of change for women in leadership and the strength that the

male voice has for women's issues is really important and I've seen firsthand

the difference that it makes when the message comes from someone who who's not

a part of that group and I saw that there is a lot of space, a lot of work that

needs to happen in the LGBTI space and I feel really passionate about this

I have heaps of friends that identify as a part of the community and I also I've

also seen how their workplaces have impacted them I recognise that I have a

place to be able to respectfully from my opinion speak about why I think that

inclusion is important businesses are based on creating value so the more that

we can do to articulate that the value of diversity and the value of diversity

in creating values for businesses the more buy-in that we'll get from more

organisations ranging from companies to government organisations and beyond I

like to see it as a diverse thing so it's not just about who you like what

your preference is how you classify yourself but it's also about where

you've come from and adapting to others as well and accepting that others

do you have an opinion from both ends of the spectrum there's people who don't

necessarily agree with people being gay people being transgender and whatnot but

then on the other spectrum gay people for instance who think 'well that's

bullshit that you can't you're not allowed to think that you can't have

that opinion' but unfortunately people are allowed their own opinions so it's

like okay sure you're allowed to think that I'm not acceptable for you know

liking a boy and having a boyfriend I will respect that you have that

opinion but it's when people will try and inflict that opinion that's when

lines get crossed and I think to alleviate that and to really like draw

back to the question it's about just understanding what people come from and

like even the questions you're asking you know 'what was your upbringing? Where

did you come from?' And all that you know it normalises things because it says 'oh

like you're born you know born and raised in Melbourne and lived here for 20 years

of your life we share that similarity' so it's about seeing those common factors

as well within everyone so that can kind of normalise it to not say 'oh well

because you're gay or you're a lesbian or you're trans you had a completely

different upbringing to me you're not like me' it's kind of drawing back on

like those common factors there's a school of thought that in replacing

LGBTQIA, the whole alphabet of letters with an all embracing term DGS: diverse

genders and sexualities that seems to be a more embracing term easier to say and

just wider and more inclusive around you know sexuality and gender identification

DGS don't mind it at all, give me a bit of DGS

over my short so far life I have

seen so much change from people that I wouldn't expect it from and the

politicians and companies and things on Facebook and to those people I applaud

you for turning around an opinion because I know it can be so hard to

admit that you're wrong and it's still a pretty big statement I mean if you look

on Facebook and a company posts something with a pride flag on it they still

receive so much hate so to those people I mean I guess I

say thank you we need to get rid of the gay panic in South Australia so good

that they got rid of it in Queensland incredible but South Australia we need

to get rid of it 21 year olds need to stop saying 'oh my

god that's so gay' I hate it do you hate it I hate it you can't say that shit you

can't then I love it because you pull people up on it 'oh no I didn't mean it

that way' there's only one way to mean it stop it

Australia stop Australia babe what's happening like I know you were founded

on a genocide and things haven't gotten much better since then but we could try

harder we need to take responsibility and like myself very much included you

can't sit there and say that you've done everything today to deal with our issues

with like people seeking asylum in this country or that you've done

everything today to ensure that like there isn't abuse towards like our

trans brothers and sisters in schools because like every Australian really

needs to step up and start looking at our blind spots people are like 'well it seems a

little bit tokenistic like you know you that you're trying to do all these

things are you trying to change the world' and like well I was like 'yeah well

it's going to be tokenistic and shit for a while it's going to be really like

people reaching out in the dark and trying to be like how do I fix this

problem?' But it's like it's better than nothing what's the other version like

being cynical and sad about it like and if you march once a year you're doing

the first thing but we need to find other ways to strengthen ourselves as a

community and the fact that the indigenous folks of this land are still

like treated like subhuman by our government is really sick and like you

know also queer folk and the whole Safe Schools debacle is just insane to me a

lot of those kids that are like out of the club they're like 'and we can't, we don't

have the right to marry' I'm like 'yes and I completely understand like that's a

frustration but like there are people like getting assaulted in the streets every

day' and it's like it's like it doesn't mean that you can't care about getting

married but it's like that's how they distract us that's how a

conservative government distracts us by saying like 'marriage is very important'

and then we all go like 'yeah marriage is very important' it's like no it isn't

it's a f**king bullshit outdated institution that puts people into contracts that

generally favor the men and f**k over the women and have done that since the

beginning so let's not focus on trying to put ourselves into that straight

world where we can be like 'me and Tom got married' it's like 'okay' like for the legal

reasons yes let's get married but we let's think about the other things we

can be doing but at the same time I think we need to be understanding and

accepting of others and the other community and what they might be facing

their differences because they've also had their own struggles and especially

being a coloured person I kind of just I never really saw myself as living in a

white person's world I kind of was just like well I'm just here in the world and

I don't have to be different because I am different I kind of embraced that and

went 'cool so you're different as well and I don't understand where you've come

from or what roads you've walked on so we're here at this point in time let's

just make something of it' that's kind of what we need to do is just to stop going

'oh they're the others and they don't accept us' to 'yeah we're both different

that's cool let's hang out' well need to start being more inter-sectional, acknowledging race and when we start acknowledging

things like race, people with different disabilities and like sexualities and

genders it's only more ground for us to come together and be stronger as a movement towards things like

marriage equality and not even just marriage equality like LGBTQIA+ issues

in general I think that the safe schools thing is a real real shame it's

not good enough you know you just have to look at the higher suicide rates

for LGBTQI you know kids not good enough you've got to stop losing lives come on

just for like to like to run your own political agenda or whatever nah not

good enough at all sex ed classes need to actually acknowledge that not

everyone is going to have heterosexual relationships and

that some men trans men and non-binary people do get their periods and trans

women have penises like none of that was addressed none of that was addressed and

it made it so complicated for me and so many other people to navigate who they

were the one thing that bugged me oh the lack

of sexual education surrounding same-sex relationships was appalling the lack of

sexual education surrounding sexual pleasure is just appalling in itself I

remember so vividly it was just one of the girls got up and like showed us her

Implanon - how did you come into working as a

safe sex educator?

well it was a volunteer program called 'yeah' which is

youth empowerment against HIV/AIDS, they're a youth run organisation which I

joined in Brisbane yeah it was really really enlightening because in high

school I didn't receive any well the bare minimum safe sex education you know

I think in primary school we watched one video and in high school we watched a

video of a woman having a water birth and that's pretty much the only safe sex

education that I received in high school

- f**k

I guess it was a really important thing

for me to do especially in my younger years when I was first coming out as a gay man

living my life and having sex to understand everything that goes with it

so yeah we would go to music festivals and hand out condoms and show people how

to put them on dildos and just educate them on STIs and how to prevent it and

what to do if you get one and trying to reduce the stigma around using a condom

when you're having sex with somebody and we did learn a lot about safe sex

education for LGBTIQA people because that's a super important thing to teach

people especially when they do receive sex education they quite often don't

receive any sex education that has to do with LGBTIQA people so you're seeing back

home in your small town hmm that's changing mm-hmm I know the education

system is trying very hard now I mean I mean I know that they have programs in

school they did not have those programs when I was there

I think I knew of one person from from the high school that was gay or at

least what everyone said they were gay but there was no outreach there was no

there was no program to help me come out or to come to terms with that

but I know now that luckily with with our government they were trying to help

and fix up that little bit of a hole in the education system no kid is

born racist homophobic not understanding all kids are very open-minded

my sister Sienna absolutely adores Monique has from day one absolutely

loved her one day at this school thing that they had for their year level it

was talking about marriage and relationships and family and the lady

presenting, making the presentation called out to all the girls in grade 1

and said girls 'what is a family?' and Siena put her hand straight up and I

was interested as to what she was going to say and I was sitting there and she said

'a family can be either a mum on their own or a dad on their own or two mums or

two dads or a mum and a dad' and I looked at her and I was like I had tears in my eyes I was

like 'where did this come from?' so it showed that obviously Monique and I our presence in

her life was making a really big difference because we're working with

kids in Greece, I'm doing Greece the Arena Experience by the way, I see it in the

way people are teaching kids at the dance school that I was at when I was

doing full time the littlens were doing a Wizard of Oz number and half of

them were scarecrows half of them were Dorothies there was a boy that was beside

himself that he could not be a Dorothy and the teacher was like 'well you can be'

so and the parents came behind stage at the concert and were like 'thank you for

letting our son be who he is' like it's just things like that that wouldn't have

happened for us that I feel are happening now well the big one is

creating that awareness around the third gender that exists under law and and

making it compulsory that you know when a giant mall is

built why are we only respecting two of those and completely denying the

existence of the other how much integrity is lost when you can't go to

the toilet and and we're not just talking about non-binary people we're

talking about people who don't fit the common image people who aren't allowed

to enter women's spaces even though they're a woman and same for men

obviously I don't want to necessarily disenfranchise those people people have

their fears for a reason and we can address those fears but we can also

respect those fears and so I would like to see a third bathroom agenda neutral

bathroom so I think that's a great way in terms of allowing non-binary people

and people who don't fit common images of people to even access society on

a normal basis to go shopping at the mall to go out with friends and see movies

then we will exist visibly because right now I'm staying at home because I don't

want to go out, 'cause I'm scared of going to the bathroom I've been beaten I've been

harassed and and verbally abused and I'm a little bit tired and if there's days I

don't want to face that then I can't go out maybe share some more stories of

just regular people and maybe not and I'll probably get in trouble for saying this, just don't

sexualise it so much it's just something that I personally have found and the

comments that I received from a lot of men around me especially when I went the

whole coming out thing was referencing to Mardi Gras in g-strings and leather

and the voice and whips and glitter and all these sorts of things, which is nothing

wrong with it it's all fun and I love it like that's great but it's just not me

there's a lot of people living here and and all over the world that are we're

just different gay guys if we showed more of that just you know regular

families or two two guys going to the cafe with their dog and it wasn't always

the stereotypically feminine sort of gay guy then probably a lot of guys

especially would feel more comfortable in themselves and you know even TV and

things it's my partner loves Will and Grace and all those sort of shows but

the guy is always a particular person like I don't relate to that so I'm sure

that there's many people just like that and that think that 'Oh

got everyone's going to think when I'm gay' just like my dad did he did that he

thought Mardi Gras and all these other things and it's just yeah I think it's

just something that puts people off wanting to come out because they don't

want their friends and that thinking that they're going to be different to

who they are right now and you know for all the men that like all those sort of

things that's just who they are so there's nothing wrong with it it's just yeah we

all need to be comfortable and I think the gay community can just yeah we can

make it just a little bit more every day like on Australian TV I can think of one

show

- Wentworth?

Nope, that's the other show, Wentworth, Please Like Me that's

about it Australian TV also has a massive race

issue which yeah like everything is white everyone is white if you watch

any of the main TV shows that people watch almost every character is white

we've started getting a little bit of good indigenous representation which is

nice but other than that it is just white city everywhere because one of the

hardest hurdles that I've had with getting people to take my identity

seriously is the fact that there aren't really any aromantics on television so they

don't understand it because the characters that you do see that 'oh

they don't want that relationship' eventually they find the one and they're

not sentenced to a life of spinsterhood or anything and it's just the

idea that if you don't think you want a relationship you will still find someone and

that person is going to make you change your mind and you see that story

happening all the time so people go 'oh you say you don't want a relationship

but look at all these characters they found someone' aromantics they're portrayed

as like commitment-phobes or spinsters that are just like these sad

old women with cats and there's no positive portrayal and we really do need

more positive portrayal of LGBTQIA+ characters so that the general public

can relate your experience to this character because they can learn things

about characters that you never learn about people themselves I think I was reading

something the day where people were like 'I don't understand why we have to

have you know some unnecessary like queer romance in the TV series' and someone had

a comment like 'what about every unnecessary straight romance or hetero romance in every single

series ever?' and it was like 'oh yeah duh' and I know the

difference it makes seeing it in you know video games or in comics or in books or

short films or whatever having that representation having those

stories people can see themselves reflected in what would have been

amazing and what I would love for like past teenage me or for other people who are

living in rural areas or places where they didn't have access to community

whether it's like in you know people who face to face or online being able to have

games which they can play or media whether it's books or movies that have

stories that reflect them so you do get like 'oh there's that that's the

possibility for me' like there's something I can relate to and I can see

myself in and have that for them I think that would've made a tremendous difference you know having

those stories where I think really relate to different characters and see

how they dealt with problems and be like 'oh wow I had that exact same problem that I

deal with sometimes' and that's what I would love to see in games as well

for across across the board not just for you know gay male characters but

characters of all different backgrounds and all sorts of awesome characters

whether it's like race religion sex gender orientation I'd love like that and we

make I think would be really cool we love Dungeons and Dragons so we play a lot

of that now you really get to kind of create who who you want to be at any

given moment and I think people forget that that's also the case for real life

like you don't have to just wait for a video game to do that or and you know

tabletop game you know you know what today

you know like we were joking before like 'I'm a tree' you create yourself however I'm obsessed

with Orphan Black and like Cosima and Delphine and like why

isn't there more of that where it's just being like 'we're together' like it's not

a big deal like I needed that from such a younger age I think it's important to

just show like you can be anyone and you can just

happen to be gay I promise I don't work for these guys: Butch is Not a Dirty

Word which is a fabulous magazine so it represents say women like me trans

non-binary butch afab folk, assigned female at birth, and it creates visibility, buy

these magazines put them in the doctor's office physiotherapists any waiting room

hotels just create visibility. There's fabulous stories in there written by

butch women butch people and written by those who love them yeah just creating

awareness and visibility and and that will stop people from being afraid in

the end no one's really here for a very long time and we're all just people just trying to

be comfortable and it's important to understand that when you speak about

trans people or gay people or lesbians bisexuals in such a demeaning manner

that you're affecting like such a huge group of people and you can say words

don't affect you know whatever, but they do even if you have those opinions

I don't agree that you should because opinions like that do have like a death

toll if you're intending to live your life by just constantly spilling hate

then you need to kind of re-evaluate because it hurts it really hurts

It would be nice to like have someone care about something that isn't a gun or

whatever's in someone's pants that'd be beautiful

I think realising that who you have in your life whether they're trans or gender queer or

what have you that at the end of the day they're just people I truly believe that we're all

people first and identity second

why don't you do that at the end of the day for a secular society religion

shouldn't be running our Constitution it should be nothing there about it ah to

put it really simply the whole world's getting on board so get around it

Get out of your arse about it

Australia, hurry up

Catch the f**k up Australia

get over yourself

get your shit sorted

we need them and we deserved them and we actually like deserved them decades ago

but we're still waiting

we need it and we don't have it yet we're lagging

behind in the world and it's embarrassing why do we want to keep

putting marginalised groups through the same things that you're inevitably going

to have to apologise for in 20 years? Like you have to keep doing because you

keep messing up you know

oh my goodness just let whoever wants to marry each

other marry each other I don't want to marry anyone so take my ability to get

married and give it to like a loving gay couple that just need that legal word

it's very difficult for a straight man to come up with rules and regulations

for for our community it's not it's not something that they should be making

solely on just their own personal or religious beliefs

seriously f**king

legalise marriage like that's all I've got to say it's not going to

change anything it's not it's not going to have an impact it's just allowing us

to do what everybody else is allowed to do I cannot comprehend

the fact that so many people perceive our cause for equality as asking

for more it's literally just us on the pursuit for equality we want equal the

exact same not above you the exact same it hurts my feelings that we aren't seen

as equal I think it's very selfish for them to have an effect on our lives when

it really has nothing to do with them if everyone can get married does that mean

your bills aren't going to be paid does that mean this world's going to come

crashing down hell no it means that everyone's going to be equal and if

we're going to preach and say that we are an equal society that we are a

democratic society then we need to actually be that we just

always say you know we were married in and Zealand so it's clarified

we haven't reported our relationship to any officials because we're like well

you're not going to take our tax money if we can't get the rights it was kind of

like as soon as we came back to Australia we just high-fived and went 'hey

friend' so obviously the huge equal right issue

these days is still in 2017 I can't believe I'm saying this marriage

equality you know something popped up in my Facebook feed the anniversary of a

March that I attended four years ago and you know it's been intractable with

political infighting so I would say to Australia let's get on with it of course

you know I think when we eventually do have marriage equality and it

is an inevitability as far as I'm concerned I think the rest of the world

is going to look at us and say 'you mean you didn't have it already? Fun-loving

Australia relaxed you know kind good-hearted Australia you didn't have

marriage equality?' And you know it will be kind of a bit of a laughing stock I

mean when they realise that we didn't have it

my mum got married to her partner

who she's been with since I was 15 or something it was the most beautiful wedding

but it was in Canada because they couldn't get married here of course it just sucked

that it had to happen in another country because it meant that all the cousins

and family that were in Australia couldn't make it to Canada for the ceremony and

marriage should be a family it's a family get together isn't it?

It's like, it's when the whole like collective family comes together and celebrates it is just

doing families a dis-service because in our extended family there's like say

100 people there's only a couple people within that family that are

queer so the fact that they couldn't get married in

Australia affected all those people that are supposedly straight and a lot of kids like most of the

people that got the worst affected were kids who were like grand-kids

and young kids ciuldn't understand why they couldn't be there they were missing out on the

party you know so it's not fair for families,

for anyone that is undecided or in opposition I guess in

particular to same-sex marriage at the moment I urge you to talk to gay people

talk to trans people go and ask them and don't offer your opinion because

they're not giving their opinion they're telling you about their life and I think

if you can see the difference that this is people's lives they're talking about not

their feelings and to understand that an opinion is not harmless if it's

oppressive so this ring airbnb are giving them out it's a marriage equality ring it

says inside 'until we all belong' and it has a gap which signifies the gap in

equality in this country and I'm pretty sure it was like $3.50 for the shipping or

something so I get to be a good person and have a cool ring and it was very cheap

I'm really proud to work for a company that supports same-sex marriage our CEO

came out along with a whole bunch of business leaders in an open letter to

the prime minister encouraging the recognition of same-sex marriage and I

think that's a really important step the next step I think is for more business

leaders and also future business leaders like the ones in our in our generation

to come out and be bold and be brave and speak up for things like this that that

need to change and they recognise as changing and that will go towards

creating a better set of circumstances to help encourage the legislation to

change marriage equality is only the beginning it's not our biggest issue

it's just is our front page issue but once marriage equality is

done and dusted and we're in and we have equality under the law still stand

beside us and know that trans people have the highest rate of suicide and

know that bisexual and trans youth are the most homeless and know that housing

is really hard to get jobs and discrimination on a social basis is

constant even the fact that people fear their parents we need that to end

you know if you're not homophobic if you're supportive express that at some

point because your kid might be freaking out inside that you hate them even

though you don't know them so have those conversations let queer society

community coexist with the entirety of society in your life move forward

together

- alright that's it

yaaaay

Prince Harry says technology can be 'force for good' at Queen's Young Leaders awards - Duration: 3:18.

prince Harry has urged people to use social media for good as he joined Australians and

others from around the Commonwealth to celebrate inspirational work by young people.

The Prince joked as he mingled with representatives of 36 Commonwealth countries who gathered

in Australia House in London at an event for the Queen's Young Leaders awards

At an earlier speech at a ceremony for the winners in Buckingham Palace, the 32 year

old Prince described himself as one of those "who can no longer hand on heart call ourselves

young".

But he praised those who embraced digital technology and social media to improve the

world instead of bullying or spreading hate.

"We are better connected than ever before this can make the world seem a faster, more

complex, and challenging place.

And too often it can make us all feel pessimistic about the future," Prince Harry said.

"But that's not what I see.

At home and abroad, I see people especially young people doing incredible things.

Young people are using this technology more than ever to be a force for good and positive

change in their communities."

The Prince made the comments at prize ceremony for young people to recognise inspirational

work ranging from tackling bullying in schools to preserving the environment.

The winners aged between 18 and 29 were handed awards by the Queen at a ceremony which was

broadcast on Facebook Live.

Prince Harry then travelled to Australia House, where he was welcomed by High Commissioner

Alexander Downer for a celebratory dinner.

He was also greeted by Australian comedian Adam Hills who told the assembled crowd he

had never been in one room with so many people he had made jokes about in the past.

Australian singer Lucy Mason performed her single Hunger at the dinner, where the Prince

and other guests dined on Australian kingfish and striploin beef and drank wines from Jansz

Tasmania and Yalumba.

Australians Abdullahi Alim, Madeleine Buchner and Jordan O'Reilly were among those to greet

the Prince to discuss their work on counter extremism, support for carers and helping

people with disabilities.

Ms Buchner who won her award after she set up a charity for young carers of family members

with a chronic illness, mental illness, disability or addiction sat next to the Prince throughout

the dinner and spoke to him at length.

The award was launched in 2014 by the Duke of Cambridge and Prince Harry to promote young

people's charitable work that changes their communities.

The final award will be given next year.

Sixty young people have been chosen as winners each time one to represent each year the Queen

served as Head of the Commonwealth at the time of her Diamond Jubilee.

Daebak's 'I can do it by myself'! [The Return of Superman / 2017.07.02] - Duration: 9:11.

The Return of Superman, episode 188,

"The Best Gift of My Life".

(They are sound asleep.)

(Donggook and the kids wear matching pajamas.)

(Wriggling about)

(Suddenly rising)

(He falls asleep again.)

(He is swimming in the open seas as a dolphin.)

(Donggook has awoken.)

Donggook is the first to rise.

He takes in Busan's scenery as soon as he wakes up.

This is so nice.

(The water just makes you want to jump in.)

Before the children wake up,

he attempts to enjoy some alone time.

But Sua wakes up.

Sua.

(Sua has just woken up.)

Good morning. Did you sleep well?

What did you dream about?

- It was about you. / - About me?

That's great.

Who's stirring over there?

They can't let me drink coffee in peace.

(Scratching away)

- We should wash. / - I'm itchy.

Where does it itch? Let me see.

Okay.

Just slap it a little.

Do it for her.

Don't make her upset. Make it steady.

This would be too hard.

Smacking away like this annoy her.

(Smacking)

- That's upsetting, right? / - Yes.

- If you do that, it'll upset her. / - I want to try.

This isn't upsetting, right?

- No. / - This would be upsetting.

(It's as if he's kneading dough for noodles.)

It's slightly annoying, right?

Right? Now you got it.

Girls, go and wake up Sian quietly.

(They flock to the bed and make a ruckus.)

(The duo is on a mission to wake up Sian.)

Hey, Sian.

Give him a kiss and wake him up quietly.

(Kissing)

Open your eyes.

Open your eyes.

(Gosh. They are so annoying.)

(Chuckling)

Sian, it's time to rise and shine.

(Rise and shine.)

There's my little pup.

Come here, little pup. You're the last one up.

(Sian is full of energy this morning.)

- Good morning. / - Did you go to the bathroom yet?

All right. He's doing his business.

After he's done, help him get dressed and come out.

- I'm done. / - Help him dress.

Are you done helping him?

No, he said he'll do it by himself.

Really?

Sian, who seemed to be a baby forever,

now takes care of himself well without his sisters.

(Sian tries everything alone now.)

- Sian. / - Hey, Sian.

Shall I teach you which side is the front?

This side is the front.

- Hurry up. / - The pup is still dressing.

All right. Brush your teeth like me.

(Opening wide)

Lower your head.

There you go.

You should wash your face, too.

(The fellow in the mirror is quite a looker.)

Don't forget your hair.

(Sian grooms himself.)

(He might just tumble into the sink.)

(His enthusiasm is explosive.)

You're okay with me wetting your hair, right?

- Yes. / - Now this would be annoying.

This would be upsetting, okay?

(Glaring)

- Was it annoying or not? / - It was okay.

(That isn't enough to faze me.)

If you see anything you want to eat,

let me know so I can help you.

- How about you, Sua? / - I want to see this one.

- This one? / - Yes.

This one has sausages.

- Do you want it? / - No.

What do you want?

- I want to see this, too. / - This one's rice.

- This is bulgogi. / - I see.

- What in the world? / - I want to see this one.

All right. Just scan the whole aisle.

In one, two, three. Take a look.

(Lifting)

Take a look. This is a buffet.

Okay? What are you going to eat?

What are you going to eat, Sian? Scan quickly.

(Sian, scanning)

- The eggs. / - That?

- Over here. / - Okay.

I'm not ready yet. Why are you eating first?

Dad, I need water.

Water? Okay, I'll bring it.

- Me, too. / - I'll go get the water, okay?

We're just getting started. What a busy morning.

(Thanks to our assistant, we're eating comfortably.)

(Donggook finally takes a seat.)

All right.

(She scans his tray.)

Dad, I want a sausage.

A sausage?

- Sausage? / - Okay, I'll give you some.

- Sausage? / - A sausage.

Your pronunciation is great.

Give it a try, Sian.

It's not "shawsage", it's "shawsage".

It's "shawsage" instead of "shawsage"?

It's not "shawsage".

- It's "shawsage". / - You're right.

(He takes his first bite of food.)

I think I need to pee.

- What? / - Bathroom.

- You need to go to the bathroom? / - Yes.

- Are you telling the truth? / - I need a potty.

You need to sit on a potty? Are you sure?

I think I'll finally get to eat a lot after this.

Being father to five siblings is a tough calling.

It sure is hard to sit down for a single meal.

Focus, buddy. Are you refreshed?

I left my meal for this.

I didn't even get to eat.

(Sian gazes about innocently.)

(Peace begins to seem elusive.)

This is good.

I need to go poo.

(For Donggook, it's another long morning.)

After the chaotic breakfast,

the siblings are out and about.

(They head outside after a hearty meal.)

Try singing.

(Please move aside)

(The bicycle's bell is ringing)

- We're going to ride a bike. / - A bike?

- Are we riding that? / - Yes.

- Hello. / - Hello.

We're here to ride this.

Will the three of them be able to ride safely?

- Yes. The three of them will fit. / - Will they?

There are safety belts as well, so they'll be fine.

Start cautiously.

All right. I'll move slightly.

(Donggook drives personally with permission.)

Hello.

We'll be back after a round.

(Bye.)

- Onwards. Let's go. / - Let's go.

(Please move aside)

- ♪ The bicycle is coming through ♪ / - Faster.

(The bicycle's bell is ringing)

Go faster.

They traverse through Busan's friendly alleyways.

(The atmosphere is warmly accommodating.)

I see toys.

You're right. There are toys.

Look at the pinwheel.

(Fluttering)

Hello, Donggook.

Hello there.

This is Dad's first time here,

but all the locals recognize us.

I think we have to go up all the way. Take a look.

That's very high.

- Isn't it? / - Yes.

- Shall we go up or not? / - Let's go up.

Okay. Let's go.

What happens if we fall?

I'll drive well and make sure you don't fall.

Guys, look down there. You can see all of Busan.

During the war, refugees gathered and lived here.

When I was younger,

each complex housed 11 families.

It's hard to understand, right?

Up to 11 families lived in each complex.

(He remembers his childhood circumstances.)

When you were Jaesi and Jaea's age?

It was when I was younger than they are.

Bathroom visits were like war.

(Donggook reminisces about the past.)

It was really...

This setting isn't unfamiliar to me.

While cruising about, I realized that I've been

forgetting the small things in life.

Isn't it pretty?

(New memories are forged with his children.)

Oh my gosh.

- Dad. / - Look at those stairs.

(Exclaiming)

Goodness. How many stairs are those?

Do you guys see the end?

(There are 168 stairs on this Ibagu Street.)

(The cameraman is huffing.)

Gosh, it's so high.

- Oh my gosh. / - Look.

Will the climb be possible with the children?

Game Theory: Can Chicken Nuggets SAVE YOUR LIFE?! | Kindergarten - Duration: 16:01.

(nasal voice) Hello, Internet. Welcome

to Nugget Theory, where only those most

deserving of Nugget's wisdom are permitted to watch. All others who feel the wrath of the mighty Nugget!

(MatPat) Who're you? What are you doing in my recording closet?

Nugget will not forget this! Nugget away!

("Game Theory" Theme)

Hello, Internet! Welcome

to "Game Theory," the show that teaches you high school math by offing a school full of

Kindergarteners. "But MatPat," I hear you saying, "I've never even heard of a game like that.

Do you mean you're doing another episode on haunted animatronics?" And to that, I say NO! Not today!

Probably two episodes from now. No, today we're not killing kids in a haunted pizza restaurant. We're killing them on a family-friendly

playground. Truly, "Game Theory" is expanding its horizons. Loyal theorists, welcome to the world of

"Kindergarten," one of the best games of 2017 and

hands-down one of my favorite games we have ever covered on "GT Live."

Now, in case you missed it, shatter that "i" button in the upper right-hand corner of the screen (or search for it later if you're watching the YouTube app),

because there's a link to watch our play-through. To give you context though,

"Kindergarten" is the ultimate replayable child murder masterpiece of our time, an 8-bit "Life is Strange"

where you relive the same Monday over and over and over again,

attempting to figure out the right series of events to complete each

character's storyline.

Are you going to try to be the best boyfriend ever to popular girl Cindy by dumping a bucket of blood on another

classmate's head? Will you fall victim to Mr.

Sweepy as the Janitor tries to dispose of suspicious-looking bags in the bathroom?

Or are you going to unravel the mystery behind your fellow classmate Billy's disappearance?

Nugget misses Billy.

And then there's Nugget,

That's me!

the friendly weirdo who definitely smells like last night's pizza and kills off the class bully with a poisoned, processed chicken ball.

We all know a kid like this growing up, the one who eats the paste or, in the case of our game, digs a hole

behind the school that leads to a Satanic worship pit.

It is not for the worshipping of Satan! It is the Nugget Cave, reserved only for those who have proven their friendship to Nugget!

Well, whatever it's called, is the giant hole in the ground dug into the school sandbox,

but here's the kicker--depending on how you played the game you'll either survive your jump into the Nugget Cave or (chuckle) not so much.

You want to find out? Sure. Are you going to kick me in--?

(thud!)

Jeez.

WHAT?!

The difference between you breaking your little kinder-head on the bottom of the Nugget Cave and actually surviving is this--

What's that? (laughs)

Don't adjust the resolution of this YouTube video, you're seeing that right. That's a small child emptying his pants of

hundreds of chicken nuggets to break your fall when you jump, and it's moments like that, ladies and gentlemen, that make

"Kindergarten" one of the best games of 2017.

But now for the real question, and I bet you all know where this is headed--

Can a giant pile of chicken nuggets actually make the difference between

surviving and not surviving a fall. Yes, loyal theorists,

that's what you clicked on this video to find out today. Forget Xbox 1x

and what framerate its games are going to be at, coming off of E3 THESE are the crucial questions

plaguing the gaming industry. So empty your pockets of processed chickeny goodness because we're about to dive headfirst into this theory

That sounds unwise, but Nugget will not stop you.

Thanks, Nugget. To get started, any falling object, unsuspecting Kindergartner or otherwise,

experiences acceleration due to gravity,

just like you learned in eighth grade physics. Accelerate too much, and when the ground suddenly comes up to meet you

you're going too fast to stop

safely. When you hit the ground, you're going from some speed to zero in a

fraction of a second, and the force of that stop is too much for your body to handle, so it breaks.

It's the classic saying of--

But that being said if there's something there to catch you, then you have a better shot of surviving.

That's why stuntmen land in giant airbags. Those airbags stretch out the time it takes to stop a body's momentum

to zero. The longer the period of time used in changing the momentum of the falling human, the less force that's going to be released

on the impact. Airbags work because they slow down the impact of the falling body by allowing the body to

displace a large volume of air. The greater the displacement, the slower the final impact and the less chance of injury. So, theoretically,

a similar principle could work with chicken nuggets. If you're landing on a big pillowy pile of processed chicken parts, the air,

moisture, and inherent

sponginess of the meat is going to spread out your force and give you more time to slow down than, say, the rock floor of

the Nugget Cave or at least in theory, that's what we hope. Which begs the question,

Just how good are chicken nuggets at acting like a pillow? Can they actually save you? And the most

important question of all, which dipping sauce should you bring when you hit the bottom?

Just kidding, that last one isn't even a question. It's Mulan SzeChuan dipping sauce!

And thaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaat's the way the news goes!

Now, you might be thinking that a rudimentary

8-bit game wouldn't give us enough information to figure any of this out,

but we actually have everything we need to solve this theory.

We know how long it takes for a

kindergartner to fall from the top to the bottom of the hole because we hear the thud when they hit the ground.

NOOOOO! NO, WE KILLED HER!!

Goodbye, Lilly.

No! (Aerith's theme plays) The pretty Lilly did not enter the Nugget Cave with my pillowy nugget cushion.

(music stops) Yeah, sucks to be her. So after timing out this horrific child's death, I was able to conclude that our fall time is

Since Lilly starts at a velocity of 0 and is accelerating only due to the force of gravity, which is

we're able to calculate that the depth of the nugget cave is

35.7 meters is over one hundred feet, or ten stories high, which is a seriously impressive hole to be hand-dug by a

kindergartner during recesses using a tiny plastic shovel.

But based on that we can calculate our speed when we hit the bottom of the cave. It's almost

This tells us right away that he's definitely going fast enough to die on impact.

NASA estimates that on average humans can technically survive an impact of up to

But above that,

you're pretty much guaranteed to die instantly, and according to the Journal of Pediatric Surgery, the survival rate for children is 50%

once you start throwing them off of buildings that are five stories high.

Don't really know how they got those test results in, don't really want to know! It's for scieeeeeeeeeence!

And that's only five stories high. Our kindergartner is falling from twice that height. So yeah, Nugget,

I hope you're confident in the breaking power of your breaded pile of protein.

Dear MatPat, Nugget will not lie to you, (coldly) unless you betray Nugget's bond of friendship.

Now to figure out whether nuggets will break our fall,

we need to know how soft they are.

It turns out they need to be really soft. The maximum force your spine can take in a beat first fall is

before you start to crumble like a human accordion.

For context, when you go on a roller coaster, the maximum g's that you feel is about three to six, and when Apollo 16

re-entered Earth's

atmosphere, it only got up to 7 g's. Right now when we jump straight down into the uncushioned Nugget Cave,

we're getting hit with almost

30 g's of force at the bottom waaaay over the threshold to kill us! That means we need a lot of

cushioning, but can chicken nuggets actually do the job? To find out, we need to know how compressible chicken nuggets are.

Compressibility is basically how much give an object has when you put weight on it. Concrete, not very compressible, my love handles

sadly, very compressible--I uh I mean Rock-hard! I'm totally swole, bro! Can't spell fabulous without abulous!

Yeah, I just need to stop sitting on my butt writing episodes and do exercise.

So to test the compressibility of chicken nuggets, Steph

and I actually ran around town collecting nuggets from a variety of different restaurants. Once we had successfully creeped out every

drive-thru in a ten-mile radius by cleaning them out of their nugget supplies,

it was time to test the compressibility under different weight.

Gotta pay for some "nugs."

I hate myself for calling it nugs. Don't ever call it nugs.

(Steph off-camera) No, never.

Based on those calculations, I was able to plot out the squishability of chicken nuggets in this very professional-looking graph. Oooh!

We didn't even bother to label the axes. Man,

that would be, like, twenty points off if this was graded. The first thing you'll notice here is that chicken nuggets aren't created equal(ly).

Wendy's nuggets are far and away the softest and best for compression. Meanwhile, McDonald's nuggets have a hard outer crust

that's way too solid and barely compresses at all. So we know right off the bat if we're going for softness,

we're reaching for Wendy's and not the old Mcdo. Don't worry, McDonald's, your barbecue

sauce is still my favorite because you're literally right around the corner from where I live, just go to you first.

That's just laziness.

I also found out from our field tests that chicken nuggets have a weird

inflection point where you get just the right amount of weight to squish the nugget down, usually around five pounds,

but then after that most of the compression is done, no matter how much more weight you add to them. This presents

some serious problems. The thing about chicken nuggets

Is that, you know, they're a bunch of small, flat patties of meat, and unlike packing peanuts, airbags, or even

plastic balls in a ball pit, they don't scatter, and they're not filled with a lot of air that you can compress.

I mean, sure, they give you a little bit,

but even a stack of a hundred nuggets only sinks a few inches. It turns out that the harder you hit them with the weight, the

more they just become one massive,

congealed lump of smushed

nugget brick. Plus, as you begin to add more and more nuggets to the top of the pile, those nuggets start to weigh down the

nuggets on the bottom, basically negating all the compression room that we wanted to have ready to catch our fall in the first place.

So after extrapolating these graphs out to include stacks of hundreds, or even thousands, of nuggets,

you start to see a disturbing pattern emerge. Instead of creating a soft pillow of nuggets to catch our fall,

we've just created a greasy, meaty floor with a little bit of give but not enough to slow our

toddler hurtling towards the ground at sixty miles an hour. Even if the stack was

five hundred nuggets tall by adding twenty-one inches of

compressible nugget goodness for landing, you'd still only be reducing that force from thirty g's to

twenty-seven. That means that even

incredibly tall stacks of nuggets are going to compress to break the fall enough for us to survive, and THAT'S

kind of a bummer really. I'm usually all about finding a way to make the physics of these things work out,

but in this case you have to remember you're jumping out of a ten-story window into a pile of formerly frozen meat.

So is the Nugget Cave an impossibility then? Is Nugget forever cursed, never to enter his beloved nugget hideout ever again? :_(

Well, not so fast there, my nuggety friend. You might not be able to break your fall with chicken nuggets,

but if you take this whole experiment to its extreme--let's face it, that the whole point in "Game Theory"

in the first place--

then there is

technically a way that the nuggets could save you. Instead of cushioning your fall, what you'd actually need is enough nuggets to make your fall

shorter, a pile of nuggets so tall that it lessens your fall distance to a point that you're no longer

hitting speeds that result in deadly deceleration.

But just how many will you need?

Dear viewer, comment below "I need nuggets" then tap Subscribe to join the Theorists

Can you do both those things in under three seconds? Nugget would like to see you try! Ready? 3, 2, 1!

Impressive. Perhaps you are worthy of Nugget's friendship after all.

Now as we've established our Nugget Cave is

117 feet or 35.7 meters deep and results in us traveling at 60 miles per hour or 96.5

Km/h at impact. We also know that

technically we can survive a fall that gets us up to speeds of 38 miles per hour or 61

kilometers an hour.

After running some numbers, we were able to calculate that our maximum fall distance to stay under that speed has to be less than

fourteen point two meters or less than forty six point five feet,

basically the equivalent of a four and a half story building.

That is still rather high.

Sure, it is. You don't see me jumping off a four-story building, but it is technically survivable.

So if we can stack nuggets high enough, we can just land on top of the big pile and slide the rest of the way

down. This means that we need a stack of chicken nuggets

73 feet tall, a literal

mountain of nuggets! An average nugget is 0.5. inches thick, meaning you need a stack of nuggets

1772 nuggets high just to get to a survivable height.

But that's just talking about a single column of nuggets.

Obviously, you need a pile of nuggets wide enough to catch you.

Naturally, a pile of nuggets will fall into the shape of a cone, and believe it or not, there is actual,

documented science that you can use to help find the dimensions of this fictional two thousand nugget-high chicken cone.

You can find the shape of this chicken cone by using what's known as its angle of repose.

Whenever you create a pile of some substance--grain,

gravel, breaded fast-food goodness, it tends to form the same style of cone every time. All of these cones

have a standard angle of repose,

basically how steep the sides of the cone made from that material are. For the theory today,

I decided to use bark as the stand-in for chicken nuggets because of its similar weight and thicker more oblong shape,

also

because wood chips are often called nuggets. That gave me an angle of repose of 45 degrees. Armed with that information in some simple

trigonometry, we can calculate the radius and then the volume of the cone which is--get this--almost

12,000 cubic meters of chickeny delights! That is nearly three million

gallons of nuggets! But then, how many

individual nuggets is that huge number translate to? Well, if you divide this total volume by the volume of one chicken nugget, which is

3.5 times 10 to the negative fifth cubic meters, in case you were curious, you get the grand

total nugget count to save your life of

That is almost

350 million chicken nuggets as the minimum number to get us to survive our fall into Nugget's cave!

And if that number seems big to you think about it this way, we're talking about a cone of nuggets

that is as tall as a six-story building.

Nugget's pants are not equipped for that.

Well, I'd say your pants are the least of your worries there, buddy.

I bet your WALLET isn't built to handle it either. Buying that many nuggets, even at Burger King's

steal of a deal at $1.50 per ten-piece nugget box, you'd be spending over

on chicken flippin nuggets!

Nugget cannot afford that! Nugget's been saving up for Monty's Monstermon card to give to the pretty Lilly.

Well, then there you have it, Nugget, STOP DIGGING SUCH DEEP HOLES! But most importantly of all

remember, that's just a theory!

How Eye-Tracking Can Enhance Badminton Performance | The Tech Race - Duration: 4:48.

Welcome to The Tech Race.

Now you see them - now you don't.

In synchronised swimming, most of the action

is underwater and visibility

a key part of the sport,

both for training and judging.

What if you need to see the whole picture?

(TWIN-CAM)

Synchronised swimming is a combination of gymnastics,

swimming and ballet.

The swimmer should execute thousands of positions

under and over the water simultaneously.

Winning is a matter of perfection and training.

In this sport the visualisation of the exercise

is very important as part of the method.

(SPAIN)

(BARCELONA)

In Barcelona, the Spanish Synchronised Swimming team

uses a camera allowing them to see

the whole exercise when they finish a set.

For the athletes, this means they can analyse their exercise

in a visual way without even leaving the water.

The Twin Dolly is composed of two cameras -

one that is underwater and another above the water.

The images from both cameras

are sent to a video mixer in the twin-cam structure.

This mixer creates a fused image of the two cameras,

defining a break point at water level, in real-time,

allowing for viewing on a portable device.

It allows us to see what happens underwater

and also to watch everything on demand.

Preparing to rise and stroke towards the bottom of the pool.

It's fine - more synchronised.

See, we must get the vertical.

One of you, Carmen,

you pass the red line marking the vertical.

The body should be straight.

The line tells us the angles and the straight line.

It helps us to visually spot the error more easily.

We use iPads to play back the images

and watch them in the moment.

When you make corrections, you can say,

"Your leg is turning too much,"

but with the image, correction is much faster.

The greatest obstacle in the development of twin-cam

has been distortion caused by refraction.

Refraction occurs when light changes

from a less dense transparent medium, such as air,

to a denser one such as water -

this causes rays of light to change speed and direction.

This is why swimming pools appear more shallow

than they really are.

(TWIN CAM - WITHOUT TWIN CAM, WITH TWIN CAM)

It can go pretty fast,

to follow the swimmers going fast

but in synchronised swimming, the speed is...very slow.

A picture is worth a thousand words.

Watching yourself right after the exercise,

knowing how you felt and seeing how it looked

from the outside...

What really matters is how it looked from the outside.

You understand better what your coach is correcting

if you can see it.

In synchronised swimming,

many components influence a judge's decision.

For example, in a technical routine,

elements account for 40% of the score

and execution and impression 30%.

The clearer the judges can see, the more they can be impressed.

The judges of synchronised swimming

have incorporated underwater videography.

They don't use it to score, but they do to give penalties,

such as touching the bottom of the pool.

You can draw lines over the image,

you can make calculations, and do complex things,

but in training it's normally used to watch

and stop the image a frame before or after.

It's something that the naked eye cannot see.

If you see it in slow motion, you can get a lot of precision.

It's a way to learn fast,

a very graphical and objective way to show errors.

With these subjective sports you must try to be objective

to give direct feedback that is well understood,

so that they capture it and can make corrections.

The twin-cam has revolutionised the broadcasting of

synchronised swimming at the Olympic Games.

With a scoring system that is as complex

as in synchronised swimming,

a technology that can create a more immersive experience

whilst leaving no room for interpretation,

and show the whole picture, can make waves.
