Youtube News: Youtube daily report w Sep 26 2017

I left Congress undefeated and unindicted.

People say to me all the time what is wrong with our country. What is wrong with our

democracy. Why has it deteriorated to this. The thing that most threatens our

democracy is gerrymandering and it's all about, you've heard this phrase, it's

about whether the people pick their representative or the representative picks the people.

The principle is that politicians and candidates and political parties want to

win because they think they're right they think they're better than the

opposition they think their ideas are I think their parties and so it's not

surprising it's not just your craven self-interest but it is a political

process that people who the parties think they're they need to win because

they like their ideas better than the opposite party the point of the story is

you can't trust politicians to draw the boundaries right myself included

Congress says you may have noticed it's not very popular there are some things

that people like more than cars 48% of people like head lice over Congress

Brussels sprouts by 46% colonoscopies are more popular 27% more popular

used-car salesmen root canals traffic tram jams and Donald Trump is 2 percent

favored over Congress I would be tying him with cockroaches so despite the fact

that Congress is so unpopular if you look at the left the elections in 2016

98% of house incumbents and 93% of Senate incumbents in 80% of governors

were reelected so what does that tell you it has to tell you something with a

body full of people who are so detested are so successful in being reelected and

I would suggest I think it's beyond a doubt that it has everything to do with

gerrymandering districts to make so many of them safe

so they almost can lose if they and many of them seem to try very hard

this is an astonishing thing I think last year there were all 435 seats in

the United States House of Representatives were up for election and

I could have told you six months before the election

now 400 of those dishes elections were going to turnout because there are very

very few seats anymore where the general election is really contestant it's all

over in the primary and the incumbents know for the 400 out of 435 cases

roughly that they're going to win we're going to win because their districts are

safe so what is that what what what does that mean it means that in a time when

our our culture of our media our politics is getting increasingly

polarized there's very little penalty anymore for being on the extremes of the

right or the left because if you're in a safe district you can do as rocky things

is what you can say wacky things you can be an extremist you can refuse to

compromise you can spend term after term after term of getting practically

nothing done for the country you're probably going to get reelected anyway

and so no surprise that our democracy is not working no surprise that we're not

compromising anymore because nobody wants to compromise and compromise has

become a dirty word if you compromise your primary challenger is going to use

that against you because anymore Democrats can't be left enough and

Republicans can't be right enough because there's always somebody to the

extreme of them who will try to take them out in the primary when the vote

turnout is low and the people who turnout tend to be more of the special

interest in more to the extremes of the of the little spectrum and the result of

that is nothing gets done because our form of government was designed for

comfort compromises it was designed that way and

when you say I can't compromise because if I do I'll be taken out in primary or

it can't compromise because my my leaders my majority term I mean our

leader will punish me if I do if I can't compromise because Rush Limbaugh or Rico

motto or somebody will chastise me publicly then there's no compromise and

when there's no compromise nothing good it's done and you can see

pick your issue and not much of value is coming out of their conversation the gap

is wide the gap is real and the gap is very very harmful so there are two

things that are important in politics the first is money and they can't

remember what the second is I did something that was either really brave

or really stupid of when I was first in Congress within my first month or so I

said I'm not going to take any PAC money at all

I remembered Newt Gingrich said why did I put you in the Energy and Commerce

Committee I could have put somebody there for one and all that PAC money and

my my proudly thought I was a fool and my campaign manager thought I was a fool

now I made the argument that I can buy more trust for my constituents without

taking any PAC money then I could buy evolve attack money in the world and I

think I was right and it worked and I've been defeated as I said so in

2016 51% of all of the money raised came from

special interest groups and very wealthy donors with very very usually very

radical ideas so the total federal tax spending in 1992 was 188 million in 2016

ten times that one point eight billion dollars of special interest money when I

was in Congress there were maybe five of us that refused to take PAC money I

don't think I could I don't know that I could be elected today reelected today

if I wasn't if I which not only ensures the incumbents

the safety of reelection but it also tends to buy their votes and so when

you're getting money from the heart right you're getting money from the hard

left getting money from valued special interests your unand

to break with them toward a compromise and again political paralysis if you're

a kamut community of culture of color of common interest and your debt and your

community can be divided up and split up among a multitude of ditch of

congressional districts then you lose powers and of course in many places in

the country that is one of the prime motivations if you have a let's say a

congressional district I'm not sure what the numbers are today but it's probably

something 750,000 people that a congressional district if you have a

city that has roughly that number of minorities of African Americans say you

can have your own district and the left one of your own but if you take that

group of 750,000 black people and you put them in seven different districts so

now there are a hundred thousand in each of the districts and they're outnumbered

seven to one guess who's better without election right so if that's another

pernicious abuse of redistricting it's just bad for business because it

produces uncertainty in every business your investors need to know what has

some reasonable sense of what the future holds in terms of public policy so you

can decide whether it's better to invest in this or that or open up this business

or continue this business or borrow money for your business but if you don't

know what's what the future holds and you and that's because you have an inert

Congress that can't figure out how to create a future for us create a sensible

public policy future for us that industry and business small business and

more spacious businesses don't do nearly as well yeah we have a legislative body

that can't agree what day it is let alone pass a a budget

a spending plan at this point is there any other leverage that we have other

than postcards and phone calls to try to push this effort any harder than than

that I suggest all of the time that you

actually go sit down with your representative people tend to think that

that's not collecting to have it um I almost guarantee you that if you call

your state representative of your state center somebody shaving their head in

the back now

well I believe it is a duty of every elected official to take every meaning

that they possibly can with their constituents the constituents you know

that's really they look for they work for you not the other way around and you

know if you ask for a meeting and they don't give you a meeting I would write a

letter to the editor and I would say I would call the reporter and say why is

it that you know I tried to get a meeting with my representative and he or

she refused to do that I think it's a story in and of itself if five or six or

ten of you asked your representative for a meeting it's a little harder to say no

to isn't so that's one way you can call us you can figure out from the

membership of the organization I'm sure they can find out who in their

municipality do in their district right is it is interested in this issue and a

member of this organization and you can get together and contact each other and

say let's write a letter and all sign it and hand you know hand-delivered walk

into the district office and say here's a letter from ten people in your

district we've got a meeting on this subject please tell us when we can have

it I like comment on this notion that we can't hold a public hearing because

there's a lawsuit think about that imagine if the chairman of a committee

is really wanted to hold a hearing really really wouldn't want to hear

somebody filed a lawsuit that has something to do with this subject do you

think that legislature goes yeah well they've never really wanted that so if

you couldn't hold a hearing because there was a lawsuit somewhere on the

same issue no hearings health whatsoever okay

so that's that is in all due respect to the chairs of those committees that is

just an excuse where our glory was growing up my wife

and I which are glory require that she do a time out and that

meant going to her room the phone the computer TV not what I've done once and

it effectively is written to my representative that I voted for you in

the past but this issue is so fundamental to our democracy it's bigger

than most anything else we're dealing with and no matter how many good things

you've done for us next time I'm going to give you a time now I'm not going to

vote for you no matter what now me doing that alone got me nowhere and I bet you

there was a couple of couples and representatives office but if a lot of

people would say you got to sit one out and come back maybe the next time around

but unless you work towards getting this past not going for you next time that

way the only expression I like which is if you can't change their mind change

the faces thank you for being here thank you for caring thank you for here

Yoga for Gamers | Health Potion Ep3 - Duration: 11:22.

Hello and welcome to health Potion the show about gamers and Health.

I'm Jaymii

- I'm Karina

- and today we're talking about

yoga

[intro theme music]

so why do we as gamers care about yoga?

- well I would say it's very good for us

because it helps us to stretch out our muscles

so you know when you're gaming for a really long time

you tend to sit in the same position

and that kind of tenses you up a little bit

and you really need to kind of relax and elongate your spine

you know get some good posture going

also games put your body into like a sympathetic overdrive

so I'm sure you've heard of fight and flight, rest and digest

- yes - so our bodies are not really great at differentiating

the difference between a tiger hunting us down and a tiger hunting us down in a video game

- especially if you're playing VR - especially if you're playing VR

that stuff is tricky

so I our body can't differentiate between the two very well

so what yoga can give us is

it switches your body from being a sympathetic so that's a fight and flight

to your parasympathetic which is like your rest and digest

so it kind of forces your body into relaxing and taking a break

earlier this year I hurt my back at work and it sucked

it sucked a big time and I before this time did not really care about yoga at all

I thought why would I waste my time on this exercise which didn't really seem to do much

when I could be like if I'm gonna go out I'm gonna go for a run and spend all my time on aerobic type exercises

and then all the doctors once I did this were like "you have to do yoga"

It started off subtle at first like "have you tried yoga?"

and then it was just like "no you've got to do yoga"

because basically I wasn't allowed to do anything

I wasn't allowed to sit down and sitting down was like the worst thing for my back

and now when I do yoga I'm allowed to sit down again

basically those small times of the day

where like take a 10 minute break to do the stretches that my physio had recommended

basically just makes my back feel like magic

and I just thought if I'm doing this because of my injury but what was like before my injury

and just yoga just made be become so much more aware of my body and how it was feeling

and I become- now I know like when I'm sitting I understand how I'm feeling better

I just am more in tune with myself

even though it's kind of bad because I know when I'm more likely to be hurt

but I'm just more likely also to know what I need and when I need it

-Yeah it kind of promotes you to become a little bit more aware about how your body is feeling

in like a muscular sense as well as a postural sense

and you just deepens that connection

and the great thing about yoga is it's free

I think there's a lot of companies out there who promote certain products

and you "have to have it" but that's not really true at all

it's a- you know you have its origins in India of like centuries and centuries ago

it was practised by absolutely everyone in the country

and nowadays with the internet you- there's apps there's websites

all that teach you had to do it for free

and the great thing is it's for every fitness level

you can always do it to your pace and you can tailor make it

I think Jaymii has some apps that she's gonna mention - yeah

it's like use- well first of all YouTube is fantastic

there are like so many different YouTube videos you can do for free

so just you can just watch it and do that one

option number two is like there's some apps there's one app that I recently got-

which allows you to even choose which moves you want to make your own playlists

but of course once you know how to do certain moves

that you find useful so and you might not necessarily want to do a new routine

if you have like a small routine that you particularly enjoy doing

you can even just record- like time yourself, how long you want to do each stretch

and record it as a voice memo on your phone

and then just play it and then you know what you're doing

and you don't have to worry about money at all

basically learn the skills and then use them how it works best for you

'cause there's so many different types of yoga

there's like the hot yoga, there's the chanting yoga, there's like intense yoga

- remedial yoga - relaxing yoga

I think- I mean everyone thinks yoga and they think about these people like standing on their heads

and doing all these crazy bends and honestly that's... that's "Instagram yoga"

and that's not real yoga and it's very flashy and it's very fun

and I think great for those people for like getting to that level of strength and flexibility

but I think a little bit more of an everyday sense even if you can't even like touch your toes

like the fact that you're doing something good for your body

is good enough and it's like small tiny incremental changes

that happen within your body each time that you do it that means that you'll be better

just that little bit better next time and don't beat yourself up if you can't do a headstand

I can't do a headstand no I can't balance on one foot

I'm just not there yet and I'm totally fine with that

- my favourite yoga poses are the ones I can do lying down

especially in the morning because like my body feels incredible afterwards

but also I got to lay down

and like remember like one of the moves of yoga is literally laying down

- it's called corpse pose and you lay there and you just breathe

- and oh- and breathing we need to talk about breathing

- yes - breathing is like such a huge part of yoga

and it's something I am terrible at but I want to get better at

so with yoga they get you to focus a lot on deep breathing

so filling up your lungs all the way

and that's really really important because a lot of us have really bad posture

and we like shrink our lungs and we don't actually breathe deeply

but another part of yoga is actually breathing out and holding that breath out

and that's actually really really important for reducing stress and anxiety in the sense that

when we breathe out and hold the breath out

we're increasing the co2 level so the carbon dioxide within our blood

and that actually relaxes the body and it forces you to relax

because that low oxygen state kind of puts you in a weird little trance

it sounds really weird - I didn't know this I'm learning so much

- and it's actually really great for people with asthma as well

it can really help reduce your system's- um symptoms

and a lot of the people where you could like learn a little bit more about it's called Buteyko breathing

we'll put links down the bottom but it's that's the other side of breathing with yoga

as well as the deep breathing which increases your oxygen

but if you're a little bit stressed focusing on the breath out is really important

- when I get anxiety especially at work I stop breathing

it's like the first thing I notice especially if I'm talking to someone

and I'm nervous about my response

or like I don't want them to hear me breathing so I just like stop breathing and hold my breath

and then I just can never catch up so

- it's about the controlled breathing

and then like out and then holding that out for four

and then breathing in - and like breathing as well you breathe with like your abdomen

which is also fantastic for your abdomen

- Yeah because you're having to use those muscles

and it's kind of uncomfortable at first

'cause you're like oh my goodness I haven't used those muscles

I haven't innovated my diaphragm like enough in the past like 27 years

and it kind of freaks out a little bit

but it gets stronger again your body gets used to it and it helps improve your core strength

- and it means when you sit so when you're sitting down to play a game

you're actually like lifting yourself up better and so you're less likely to injure yourself

and just like you be able to sit for longer without feeling discomfort

- you can game for longer

which is always- which is kind of like the whole point of everything we're talking about

- Yeah exactly so you know your neck doesn't feel as sore

your shoulders and arms don't get as sore,

your back your lower back doesn't get us sore

I think we have another episode about ergonomics so when you're sitting and how to sit better

so that's gonna come up

I think it's, you know, very very important

- basically once you- like yoga is just like a fantastic easy small way to be able to understand yourself

and then you'll be able to apply that to like however you're moving and you'll go

oh yeah this is this movement and this is this movement

we haven't talked about towels

so yes you don't need any special equipment it's like completely and utterly free

even down to the fact that you don't even need a yoga mat now

- no you don't need yoga mat you can just use a couple of towels on your floor

that's enough to give you a bit of extra cushion you can even do it on your bed

if you don't have room you don't need any special clothing

just wear some normal loose comfortable clothes

- I yoga my pyjamas

- Yeah - makes me feel good [laughs]

- I yoga in my "home clothes" which are pyjamas

But mats are great too I got this one for really cheap at K-Mart

- oh yeah - so it's like 10 bucks

it's good for when um because I have very pokey like um hips

so if I do anything where I'm on my side it's like a little bit of cushion

So yoga free, it's easy you can do it to your own ability level

it'll help you reconnect with your body

and also help your digestive system as well

because it massages it all nicely

and remember if you try it and it's not for you you can try a different yoga instructor

or different videos or different ways of doing it

and if it's still not for you that's okay - that's okay

[laughs] this whole series is about exploring different ways to benefit your health

and not everything will be for everyone

but um hopefully we find that you get something out of it

- yeah - that's what we have for this episode

we'll catch you next time see ya - See ya

[music] so in yoga it's a lot about the deep breath- [loud high pitched sound]

dishwasher! - no I feel like it's the battery in my house alarm

but.... - Is it going to go again? - I don't know

- That's amazing
