[doodle-do-wop]

what are your thoughts on Tam and Linh

Dog I don't even KNOW

Like Tam and Linh have to have some goddamn super power because if that was my sibling who I willingly went along with to get banished at least one of us would have a scar by the time we made it back to the cities

Like yeah Tam and Linh for the most part have their little sibling moments but have you met 12~ ish year olds??? Have you met actual siblings?

Like on god, I and only I can bully my siblings but if I haven't considered selling them for a warm half empty soda before I'd be lying

If my brother who has had my back all my goddamn existence got kidnapped by terrorists and then brought back one of them saying "oh she's on our side" I'd call fucking cap dog

She's a terrorist, this ain't the motherfucking Boy Scouts. You don't pick if you go up to fucking Eagle Scout or not. A terrorist is a terrorist

If I were Linh and I was told to trust this so called ex-terrorist (who isn't making any friends for herself btw Rayni biting the curb 4K when?) or let my brother get kidnapped by terrorists again the gun would go off

I think they're complicated and like just so fucking good as characters. I really wish they'd have more screen time cause like Linh went through the motherfucking trenches in Legacy and Stellarlune. I'm glad her friends had her back and I know Tam was struggling too like a LOT but baby boy your sister saw you get kidnapped, heard you were probed for your memories, you still have like scars kind of on your wrists from the weird ass light shackles you had and then bring in fucking Rayni and say "yeah she's good" after all that? After you told her to go to your abusive parents' house? My guy, my dude, my chili cheese dog

Wish they had so much more screen time smh. Shannon short story about Tam and Linh's adventures being banished when?

Also I believe this was a hc made by my cognate @frizzle-mcshizzle but Tam and Linh know gnomish from when they were banished and have changed their last name to Wildwood

“Severed Ties and Dreams”

Word count: 1605

Prompts: 54. “I don't hate you.”

78. "I hate you, I can finally say that without ripping my own heart out. I can finally say it with every fibre of my being, every bone, every nerve and I never want to see you again."

96. "You two deserve each other, you really do. Now, will you just leave me alone?”

Character relationships: Sophie Foster and Keefe Sencen (romantic), Keefe Sencen and Biana Vacker, Linh Song (platonic), Sophie Foster and Rayni Aria (platonic)

Description: Sophie and Keefe start fighting about how Keefe is always trying to make sure she is okay. Then Sophie snaps at him.

————————————————————————

Keefe’s pov-

I don’t remember how the fight started.

I just simply can’t but all I know is that Foster is shouting at me. She seems to hate me right now. When ever this happened before we were dating though things always cooled down.

I don’t think that will happen this time.

Her dark brown eyes are filled with furry as the words finally hit me. "I hate you, I can finally say that without ripping my own heart out. I can finally say it with every fibre of my being, every bone, every nerve and I never want to see you again."

I body feels rigid. The words repeating in my brain.

“Foster.” I say, knowing my eyes are glassy.

“Don’t fucking call me that.” She stares daggers at me. The guilt hitting me.

“I don’t even remember what I did!” I shout. Waving my arms around the place.

“Sure you don’t, lair.” Her voice is bitter, spitting words at me. “I hate you, Sencen.”

“So you get to call me by my last name?” I watch as she unclasps the necklace I gave her. “That really fucking hurts Sophie. I didn’t mean for that shit to happen. I’m sorry for what ever I did, but my mind won’t let me remember it. I am trying as hard as I can. Everything has become a blur to me.” I take a few steps back.

“You have a photograph memory, Sencen. This shows how much of a dick you are.” She grabs her water bottle, slowly unscrewing the cap. “Should’ve just stayed with the Neverseen.” I can barley hear the last part that she mumbles.

“I left for you! I did that all for you!”

“Don’t seem like it!” She chucks the water at me. The cold hitting me in the face as it drenches me. I quickly turn my heel as I run out the door. Leaving her behind.

Sophie’s pov-

I watch as he turns his heel. Quickly speeding out the door.

I pull out my imparter, it being my only last hope. “Dex Dizznne.” I say.

The ring runs through the house. I don’t actually hate Keefe. I just don’t know what got into me. I should be great full that he is trying to protect me.

I am the one being over dramatic.

My imparter tells me that he is unavailable. Time to move onto the next person. I know Keefe would be going to Fitz so he is out of the question. Marella is always good with this stuff.

“Marella Redek.” I wait as my imparter once again rings. Waiting forever.

Another friend unavailable.

“Linh Song!” I am shouting now.

She has instead hung up on me. Unusual.

“Tam Song!” I ball my other hand into a fist as I wait. Already taking a guess what will happen. But it is worth it.

He is once again unavailable.

“Oh my god, Biana Vacker!” I feel my nails pierce the skin on my palm. Might as well punish myself for this one.

She hangs up on me, must be with Linh or something.

“Okay fine, Jensi Babblos!” I stumble over to the couch as my imparter rings through.

Another one down on the list, only Maruca, Rayni and Wylie left. If not then I am screwed.

“Maruca fucking Chebota!” I start to attach the necklace to my imparter like a chain. I don’t care, at least show Keefe that I still care.

Two more shots left.

If this doesn’t work I am pouring sand down my throat.

“Rayni Aria.” I take a deep breath in.

Her face flickers onto the screen, finally! “Sophie, are you okay? It looks like you have been crying.” She points out.

“Can you just leap over to Havenfeild, I need some advice and your the only person that actually answered out of Dex, Marella, Linh, Tam, Maruca and even Jensi. I can’t hail Fitz or Keefe though.” Tears start to pour down my face. My other hand still in a fist.

“Okay, I will be on my way. Don’t worry I will punch Tammy boy along with Linh and co in the face afterwards.” Rayni replies determinedly.

“Thanks, but no need to go punching people.” I weakly smile as the imparter flickers off.

I unclench my fist to see blood poring down. The sticky substance on my hand. I wipe it on my black cape, hoping to hide it.

That’s when I start to hear footsteps coming up to my room. Rayni.

She opens the door. “Oh my god Sophie.” She rushes over to me. “Spill, I will give the paper towels to clean up the tea.”

“I-I got into a fight with Keefe. I think it was over how he was always trying to protect me.” I whisper.

“Just go speak to him, I am sure he will forgive you. He loves you for goodness sake.” Rayni waves her arms around as if I am an idiot. Can’t disagree though.

“But I told him I hate him, plus I told him that he should’ve stayed with the Neverseen.”

“Okay, damn.” Rayni takes my hands in hers. “Speaking to him upfront will always help.”

She continues to go on giving me relationship advice. I am starting to question if I should’ve hailed Wylie first.

Keefe’s pov-

I knock on the door of Everglen. I need to speak to someone. Specifically Biana.

“Hello, Keefe!” Della opens the door. “Are you okay?” She notices my puffy eyes from crying.

“I need to speak to Biana.”

“Alright, she is up in her bedroom with Linh though.”

“That doesn’t matter.” I brush past her as I find my way to the stairs of the mansion.

I want her back, I really do. I just want to be able to love Sophie without anything or anyone getting in the way.

I rush down the hall wiping my eyes. Hoping to make them less puffy. I know it probably isn’t working but oh well.

Biana will under stand.

I repeat those words in my head as I make my way to her door. I knock or the door, twice.

“Hello?” She opens it. “Oh, Keefe. Come in.” She pulls me in as I sit down on her bed.

“What happened?” Linh turns towards me. Her imparter going off at the moment. She cheeks it. “It’s Sophie, should I answer?”

“W-we kind of had a fight.” I tuck my knees into my chest.

“Okay, I won’t answer.” Linh presses decline as Biana sits down on the other side of me.

“What happened?” Biana asks. She grabs my hand as Linh grabs the other. I hold onto their warm touches.

“It was the classic I just wanted her to be alright. But this time it escalated massively.” I mumble as Biana’s imparter starts to ring.

“Sophie, it seems that she is also in distress.” Biana looks up at us as she declines on her. I feel so bad. Hopefully Tam or Marella will be able to help her.

Maybe even Fitz.

“Keep going.” It is Linh this time. Her eyes soft behind her black and silver hair.

“She shouted that she hates me. Also mumbled that she wished I stayed in the Neverseen.” I look down at my feet.

“Oh my god, I know her emotions can sometimes run high but this is unexpected.” Biana mutters beside me.

“I could only feel anger at the time, maybe a little guilt as I was turning my heel.” I drop my head down as I rest it on Linh’s shoulder.

“Just deep breaths.” Linh speaks to me, putting her head on top of mine. “1.” I breath in.

“2.” I breath out as Biana say says it.

We keep going like that up to 100.

“Now, you should speak to her.” Linh says.

“I hear foot steps.” Biana points out as we all look towards the door.

Two pairs. “There are two people.” I mutter.

“Yeah.” Linh agrees as a knock comes to the door. Biana stands up to open it.

It revels Sophie and Rayni.

“Sophie, why are you here?” I stop myself for a second as they step in. I notice her glassy eyes. “You hate me.”

“I don’t hate you.” She mutters, looking down. The rest of the girls looking at each other awkwardly.

“We will go.” Biana says as she grabs Linh to walk out the room.

That only leave me, Sophie and Rayni. At least she found someone.

“Do too.” I whisper.

“Keefe, look at me.” She crouches down in front of me, grabbing my hands.

All I can feel is a spiking guilt. She actually doesn’t hate me.

“No.” I shake my head.

Instead Sophie grabs my face with one hand. Bringing it up to her’s.

The soft press of her lips against mine. I kiss her back as I squeeze my eyes shut. Hoping to live in this moment forever.

She really did take back everything. So do I.

She leans back, my lips now feeling cold.

“I love you.” Foster raises my chin with her hand.

“I love you too.” I rest my head on her shoulder. Faking into her warm embrace.

I missed this feeling.

“I will leave.” Rayni points to the door.

“Thanks, Rayni.” Foster calls to her, not looking up.

“You two deserve each other. You really do. Now, will you just leave me alone.” She walks out the door. Directing her last sentence to Foster.

“Love you.” I whisper again.

She giggles, the best sound ever. A smile creeping up on her cute face. Her blonde hair falling perfectly down her shoulders.

————————————————————————

Ps. Loved how I made Rayni and Sophie’s sister like relationship!

CW: Stalking, harassment, references to alcoholism/addiction, creepy whumper

His house is covered in water bottles.

Vince picks them up as he walks by - on his end tables, the countertops, near the door. Dozens of them, but at least they're glass bottles and he sends them back to be sanitized and reused to the tiny bespoke fucking water company he buys them from.

Jesus, he has too much money and not enough sense.

But he needs the sensation of the bottle. He needs the cool glass in his hand, against his lips. It had to feel like something other than water.

He takes a drink, settling the urge to have something making its way towards his liver, then closes the cap and sets it down again. He keeps moving.

He's never been so goddamn hydrated in his entire life.

He has fifteen messages on his phone - his agent, the PR person, the social media intern for the PR person who runs his social accounts, his parents back in Ohio, a producer, a different producer, three news outlets... It's exhausting.

They all want to know what has Vincent Shield holed up at home. They want a glimpse of his face for the public. They want to consume him a little bit more.

Vincent Shield just wants a drink.

He opens a bottle of water and chugs half of it in one go, but the last bit goes down wrong and he ends up coughing so hard he has to grab onto the back of a chair for balance, white spots flashing and dancing in front of his eyes.

Vincent Shield, found dead at his California mansion of an apparent drowning by alkaline water, he thinks, and starts laughing, which just sets off a whole new coughing fit.

Eventually, he stands back up, airways clearing, and moves over to look out the floor-to-ceiling glass windows that face his backyard, his pool. He can't stand to be in the pool sober, they're tied so inextricably in his mind.

It's a wonder he didn't die out there before he tried getting sober.

His phone rings again. His PR person's face stares up at him from the screen, and he sighs and answers it. Why the fuck not. "Hey, Tamara."

"Vince. Honey. Darling. Light of my life, love of my bank account. What. The fuck. I have been calling all day-"

"Yeah, I know, I've been not answering all day. What's going on?"

"We need a statement. We need to put something together."

His doorbell rings, and Vince ignores it, rubbing at his temples with thumb and forefinger. "Statement on what?"

"You haven't seen?! Vince, open your goddamn news apps once in a while! Google your own name!"

"I pay you to Google to my name, Tamara. Just tell me what's going on."

"Vince. I need you to know it wasn't me. It wasn't Cyndi, it wasn't anyone that I can think of. We're still asking for source identities, but we need to put a response together."

His heart goes cold. Mouth suddenly dry, Vince turns, tucking the phone between his ear and his shoulder and opening that bottle of water again. "What, Tam, you have to just tell me-"

The doorbell rings again.

Vince turns and walks towards the door, breath shallow, gulping down water like he could become Christ and turn it to vodka if he just drank it fast enough.

As he swings it open to find nobody there, Tamara says quietly, "Did you have a sexual relationship with Owen Grant when you were 21, Vince? Did you introduce him to drugs? And blacklist him from acting when he ended your-... When he ended it?"

"When he-"

There's a bouquet of flowers on the steps, and the security gate to the drive in front of his house is wide open. Vince looks up - in a set of deep blue cashmere pajamas, and Jesus thank God they match - and sees a crowd of reporter's, paparazzi, and a few scumbags just here to stare taking photos on cameras and cell phones.

"Oh, fuck Christ," Vince whispers.

They start shouting, and he grabs the flowers and ducks inside, heart racing.

"Vince, talk to me-"

He's kept it for almost two decades, Owen's fucking secret. And now it isn't even the truth that will ruin him. No, it's a lie, and he knows who's telling it.

The flowers are tulips in a riot of colors, orange and blue and pink and purple. They'd be beautiful if he could see them clearly through his tears.

He kept his mouth shut. He signed the NDA, he refused to tell anyone how his teeth were knocked out, he made up some story about a mugging. He lied and lied, to protect himself.

To protect his career.

To protect Owen.

He did everything Owen and his mother wanted... except for letting Owen kill him.

He opens the card attached to the bouquet, the distant shouting filtering in through his windows. A helicopter drones by overhead.

He's not surprised by the handwriting, or by the simple message.

"Vince-"

He hangs up the phone, ignores when she calls back. He just sits staring at the card, eyes scanning the jagged handwritten words again and again and again.

I've let you say no to me too many times, Vince. Not anymore. Not ever again. I've never stopped loving you. You don't need AA. You just need to realize you need me.

How the fuck does he know about Vince going to meetings?

He's still stalking him. It's the only possible answer. And he wants Vince to know it.

Carlotta Grant died of a stroke a month ago, he thinks dully. He'd sent some sympathy flowers to... someone. Just out of sheer professional image-maintenance courtesy. She'd dropped right on the floor of the fucking Senate in the middle of a vote on something to do with "widowed pets". It had been her idea, the NDA, keeping secrets, paying his medical bills to buy his silence and using her connections to jump-start Vince's solo acting career... all of it.

She's gotten him away from Owen, her precious fucked-up rapist baby boy, and she'd kept Owen away from him.

But... she isn't here to make Owen stay home anymore.

Vince turns the card over to find one more message on the back.

You're still mine.

Vince puts his hands over his face, pressing his palms against his burning eyes, and from somewhere deep inside of him comes all the screaming he couldn't do when he was tied to that bed.

He's still tied to that bed, isn't he? The years meant nothing. Owen is going to come back into the room, and-

You're still mine.

He grabs one of the glass bottles and throws it as hard as he can, watching it shatter against the wall.

i love the o8 crew finding out about loubbie, but may i request the crew finding out about loubbie + rose fucking? maybe either by walking in on them or seeing a mark or finding something or whatever. because i think i think that would be a completely new and different can of worms

“Well,” Daphne hummed. “Would you look at that. Seems our little Rosie isn’t so innocent after all,” Daphne grinned smugly, studying the older woman as she looked up at the starlet in horror, the spoon from the Nutella jar still on the tip of her tongue.

She’d been caught. Red handed. Well, purple necked, it seemed.

“Rose!” Amita gasped. “That’s not a hickey, is it?” She shrieked, barreling over, with Constance racing not too far behind as both tried to study Rose, even Nine peeking over the screen of her laptop to steal a glimpse at what was sending everyone over the edge with giddiness.

“It’s no one’s business,” Tammy sighed, rolling her eyes at the group. “Unless,” she started, looking between Debbie and Lou, who were leaning over the blonde’s vinyl collection alternating between bickering and making out instead of actually selecting something to listen to.

“Unless what?” Constance whispered, eyeing Tammy suspiciously as she watched Tammy watch her closest friends, trying to look between the two scenes as confusion grew on her face. “Why are we staring at them?” She whispered, cupping her hand around Tammy’s ear like a child as she did so.

“Because those two are always up to something,” Tammy grumbled. “And you can’t teach an old dog new tricks.”

“Yeah,” Constance snorted. “Cause could you imagine like some old ass dog tryna jump through a hoop or some shit—“ Constance started as Tammy’s knowing eyes narrowed on the younger girl until the point seemed to come across. “Right,” Constance nodded. “Metaphors. Similes. Verbs. Got it.”

Tammy cleared her throat, closing the book on her lap as she looked across to Rose on the adjacent couch, all too curious to see if her suspicions were correct.

“Rose,” Tammy smiled sweetly, clearly up to something. “I know it isn’t any of our business, of course, but if you wanted to share the details with us, I mean, who better to trust than a group of women you could’ve quite literally gone to prison for?”

Tammy didn’t miss the way Rose anxiously looked back towards Lou and Debbie before her attention snapped back to Tammy, looking like she wanted to shrivel up and pass away right then and there. Daphne wasn’t quite sure what was going on, but she knew Tammy was pushing, and she loved to be part of anything persuasive, already prepped to jab at the brunette until she broke down and confessed.

“That’s quite the hickey, Rosie.”

“Who’s the guy?” Amita asked, getting excited.

“Or lady,” Nine coughed.

“I, er, don’t think it’s best that I—I’d rather keep it to myself, ladies,” Rose mumbled, capping the Nutella as she looked back at Lou and Debbie once more, as if seeking help, the other two completely oblivious to her desperate glances.

“Funny,” Tammy mused. “Looks sort of like that mark Deb had a few weeks ago.”

“Hardy har,” Amita rolled her eyes. “We all know what Lou’s hickeys look like. No need to remind us, Tam.”

Tammy simply sat back in her chair, raising her glass of wine to her lips slowly as she took a sip, waiting for it. 3…2…

“Wait, wait, wait,” Daphne spoke, holding her hands up. “Is Tammy saying that—“

“That this is my handiwork? Or better yet, tongue work?” Lou sighed from afar, finally seeming to be paying attention just in time for Debbie to swat at her arm, her face full of warning.

“All I’m saying, is that Lou and Debbie used to do this thing,” Tammy spoke innocently, tossing the couple a wink. “When there was someone they liked for a job who, I don’t know, wasn’t quite convinced….”

“Tammy, shut your mouth,” Debbie hissed, coming closer towards the couches as Lou tried to tug her back gently by the wrist.

“Why don’t you do it for me, Deb?” Tammy smirked, putting the glass of wine back down on the coffee table. “After all, that’s just what I was getting at.”

“Dude, Mom and Tammy were a thing?” Constance whispered, looking at Nine for confirmation, who had now shut her laptop and was looking around the room, between all the women as if this were a dramatic scene in a play unfolding around them.

“Deb and Tam and Lou,” Nine whispered.

��Sick,” Constance breathed.

“God, that is sick,” Amita added, rubbing her eyes in disbelief.

“I think it’s hot,” Daphne shrugged. “But wait, are you saying that—“

“I mean, Rose, I love you, you know that,” Tammy smiled gently. “But we all know how nervous you can get, and surely, Lou and Deb had to do some persuading to talk you into doing this in the first place. Am I right? And I mean, once you’ve been sandwiched between those two once….I wouldn’t blame you,” Tammy shrugged as Amita’s jaw fell open.

“You don’t have to confirm or deny anything, love,” Lou whispered defensively as she squeezed Rose’s shoulder, but she’d given the group confirmation enough as Tammy smiled proudly.

“You two never change do you?” Tammy sighed, raising her glass in cheers out of triumph. “Three’s company, am I right?”

[silveny-dreams]

I keep thinking about “You’re the perfect height for me to rest my chin on” but make it platonic Sophie and Tam someone help— (also hello ily okay bye)

OH BINK I BEEN WAITING FOR THIS PAIRING TURN IT UP-

Platonic

“Are you still playing that video game?” Sophie asked as she walked in the front door to her apartment.

Tam frowned, not taking his eyes from the screen. “I’ve been stuck on this level for, like, two hours now. I’m going to finish it if it kills me.”

Sophie snorted, kicking off her shoes and grabbing a bottle of tea from the fridge before wandering into the living room. She knew Tam had a thing about completing things and finding good stopping points; she should have known her roommate would spend his day off like this if he got sucked into a video game.

“Scooch,” she said, nudging Tam’s shoulder.

Instead of moving to not take up most of the loveseat, Tam moved down and sat on the floor in front of it, instead. Sophie laughed and stepped over him, settling directly behind him to watch.

“So what’s been tripping you up?” she asked, opening the tea and glancing at the fun fact in the bottle cap. “Also, apparently honey is one of the only foods that never goes bad, did you know?”

“I had no idea,” Tam mumbled, beginning a furious button-mash. “It’s always this--one--boss--GAH.”

Tam dropped the controller and ran his fingers through his hair as his character died again.

Sophie took a swig of tea and set it on the side table. “Pick up the controller, I can help.”

Tam sighed, obeying reluctantly. Sophie looped her arms over his shoulders and put her hands over his on the controller, nudging his fingers to hit the buttons she wanted.

“Hm.” She mused, setting her head on top of his. “You’re the perfect height for me to rest my chin on your head.”

“Just help me with this boss and I swear I’ll buy us takeout tonight,” Tam muttered, following Sophie’s lead on the controller.

Sophie grinned. “Ooh, can it be poké? I’ve really been feeling poké lately.”

“It can be whatever you want!” Tam pleaded, and Sophie got to business helping Tam dodge enemy attacks.

“You have to dodge and roll here, see?” Sophie said as she guided Tam’s character to do just that. “Because it always does a second attack just here, even if it’s not looped in with the first one.”

She dropped his hands and leaned back, victorious, as the level completed.

Tam looked back at her, impressed. “How...?”

“I watch those ‘how to pass this level’ videos you refuse to watch,” Sophie teased.

Tam scowled. “Then this doesn’t count! I cheated!”

“It was cheating the second I helped you, and you didn’t have issues with that,” Sophie laughed, ruffling his hair. “So. Poké?”

Tam stuck his tongue out at her. “...Fine.”

How To Compute The Total B2B Data Lists Based Market?

Some email crusades miss out because they flood beneficiary inboxes with unremitting sends. At the opposite finish of the range are those advertisers who keep such an immense hole between two messages that there is a rot in beneficiary commitment. B2B Data Lists missions should hit the perfect balance of sending messages at the perfect recurrence to keep the commitment alive without exhausting the beneficiary. 

Any business proprietor would normally go through the entire day and late evening contemplating their items and administrations. However, you should recollect that the beneficiaries of your messages have different interests too. Besieging them with subtleties of your items or administrations in the entirety of your messages will rapidly estrange them. You should likewise keep in touch with them about subjects of general interest concerning your industry. 

It's true that a great many people rapidly skim through their messages as opposed to perusing them word by word exhaustively. Your messages ought not to need the peruse to look down however ought to be noticeable on one screen. Likewise, there should be a couple of snares featured in your email that would draw the pursuer’s consideration. 

Absence of responsiveness 

A larger part of B2B Data Providers UK accesses their messages on cell phones today. This should be remembered while outlining the email. The substance (counting pictures and recordings) ought to be enhanced for better deceivability on the screen of a cell phone.

Exceptionally happy with something reasonable of business, procuring a decent arrangement of rehash business, running efforts that are driving recognizable outcomes; so why care about Total Addressable Market? Over the top rated management.

More than 30 years ago, when UC Berkeley researchers discovered telomerase — an enzyme that lengthens chromosome ends and prevents them from fraying enough to kill a cell — speculation ran wild about its role in aging and cancer, setting off a full-court press to produce drugs to activate or block the enzyme.

While neither telomerase-based anti-aging drugs, touted as a “fountain of youth,” nor anticancer drugs have yet appeared, the publication today by UC Berkeley scientists of the first detailed picture of the molecular structure of human telomerase should jump-start that effort, allowing more targeted drug screens and intelligent design of new drugs.

“It has been a long time coming. It took a lot of persistence,” said Kathleen Collins, a UC Berkeley professor of molecular and cell biology who has worked on the enzyme for 26 years.

Collins and Eva Nogales, also a professor of molecular and cell biology, are the senior authors of a paper describing the 3-D molecular structure of the human telomerase enzyme published this week in the journal Nature.

One bottleneck has been obtaining pure samples of this complex molecule, which is composed of an RNA backbone decorated by six types of protein that move around as they add DNA to the ends of chromosomes. Labs around the world have debated whether the enzyme operates singly or as conjoined twins, and how and how many proteins decorate the RNA backbone.

Without consensus on these questions, it has proven difficult to design a drug to target the molecular machine and either destroy telomerase activity – which could stop a cancer that has boosted its telomerase levels – or restart telomerase, perhaps to prime the body for rapid cell division after a bone marrow transplant.

The newly revealed structure still lacks fine detail, but combined with knowledge of the gene sequence of human telomerase, it provides enough information to start thinking about potential targets for drugs, said first author Thi Hoang Duong “Kelly” Nguyen, a Miller Institute postdoctoral fellow at UC Berkeley.

“The best previous images of human telomerase had a resolution of only 30 Ångstroms; we were able to get about 7 to 8 Ångstroms resolution using cryoelectron microscopy,” Kelly said. “When I got to the point where I could see all the subunits – we had 11 protein subunits in total – it was a moment of, ‘Wow, wow, this is how they all fit together.’”

Nguyen, Collins and Nogales are actively working to improve the resolution to 3 or 4 Ångstroms – about the size of two carbon atoms – which is sufficient for drug design.

Telomerase tops up the telomeres

Telomeres were first detected at a molecular level in the late 1970s by Elizabeth Blackburn, then at UC Berkeley and now president emerita of the Salk Institute for Biological Studies in La Jolla, California. Working with the ciliated protozoan Tetrahymena, she and colleagues showed that the ends of the chromosomes are capped by repeating sequences of DNA. Armed with knowledge of telomere sequence, researchers then showed that telomeres in tissues of multicellular organisms grow shorter each time a cell divides. The telomeres protect the DNA strands from fraying and getting damaged at their ends, much like the plastic tip on the end of a shoelace. The fact that they drop off with each cell division is thought to protect us from cancer, when a cell is hijacked and proliferates continually.

As cells age, their telomeres are shortened. Because most adult cells have no telomerase to lengthen the telomeres, when they become critically short, cell growth is halted and cells either die or become senescent. In cancer cells, telomerase is turned back on and replenishes telomeres, allowing them to maintain a stable telomere length and live forever.

In 1985 at UC Berkeley, Blackburn and then-graduate student Carol Greider discovered telomerase, an enzyme that adds DNA back to the ends of chromosomes, lengthening them and extending the lifespan of the cell. Blackburn, Greider and another colleague, Jack Szosak, shared the 2009 Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine for the discovery of telomerase.

Scientists have since found that, in humans and other multicellular organisms, telomerase is expressed only in the embryo, not in most adult cells. That means that most cells at birth have a predetermined ability to grow and divide, after which they die. Many scientists believe that depleted telomeres are a major cause of aging.

Collins has been trying to determine the structure of telomerase ever since the first human telomerase protein was discovered in 1997, and she and her colleagues have discovered and extensively characterized many of the proteins in the large enzyme, as well as the broken-up hairpin structure of the RNA backbone of telomerase. Yet how they all fit together was an enigma because of conflicting results from many different labs.

Nguyen was able to isolate the active enzyme and purify it much better than anyone had before, and employed a new, state-of-the-art cryoelectron microscope to determine the structure of the active telomerase unambiguously. Cryo-EM is a technique for determining molecular structures of compounds that cannot be crystallized and imaged with X-rays, and its developers won the 2017 Nobel Prize in Chemistry.

According to Nogales, cryo-EM is ideally suited to studying human telomerase because it can deal with the extremely small amounts of purified sample, and it can produce a structure even when the molecule under study is highly flexible, as is the case with human telomerase.

Once the UC Berkeley team had the structure, Nguyen said, it became clear why genetic mutations in some of the proteins in telomerase interfere with the enzyme to cause disease. In 1999, Collins discovered the first known human disease caused by a telomerase mutation: a mutation in a telomerase protein called dyskerin that is responsible for a rare disease called dyskeratosis congenita. Patients develop anemia as well as skin and gut problems, and most frequently die from bone marrow failure.

The reason, Collins says, is that there are two dyskerin molecules bound to the RNA backbone that have to not only reach out to the network of other proteins but also touch one another, and disease-causing mutations prevent these linkages, crippling the ability of the RNA backbone to survive in cells. Some children with dyskeratosis congenita have telomerase levels about 25 percent of normal and a lifespan of less than two decades. Those with half the normal level of telomerase typically reach a health crisis in mid-life.

Collins is ecstatic to finally have a definitive structure for telomerase and looks forward to learning more about the intricate assembly process of one of the most complex enzymes in the body: a polymerase as complicated as the ribosome, which reads RNA to produce proteins.

“I didn’t think it would be this complicated when I decided to study this molecule,” she said. “I became curious about how telomerase works in 1991, when I was just finishing as a grad student, and I was looking for a really simple polymerase system in which to understand nucleic acid interactions. And I thought, my god you can’t be simpler than this. That was super naive.”

The work was supported by the National Institutes of Health (GM054198) and the Miller Institute for Basic Research. Other UC Berkeley co-authors are Jane Tam, Robert Wu, Basil Greber and Daniel Toso. Nogales is a Howard Hughes Medical Institute investigator, and with Collins a member of the California Institute for Quantitative Biology.

WORKOUT PRODUCT DESIGNS TO COME OUT OF THIS QUARANTINE HEALTHIER THAN EVER!

  I honestly trust there are 2 sorts of human beings on this world – the primary one who workout product designs diligently and allow not anything stand inside the manner in their ritual. And then there’s the alternative type (guilty to mention I am a part of this) who permit everything be an excuse to now not workout! Its time we technique our procrastination head-on and get working on getting match due to the fact that we have a pandemic to survive. The series showcased here includes AI-assisted home gyms ( this personal trainer isn't going anywhere), domestic-fitness and teacher that double up as a reflect when no longer in use (hold the arena guessing approximately the secret behind our new more healthy frame) and even traditional gymnasium device however revived to be modern-day so that it won’t conflict with your current interior. Now we in reality haven't any excuse to procrastinate, do we?

Yves Behar’s Forme is the 2020 model of the magic reflect in an effort to make you come out of this quarantine fitter than before. Get in Forme-ation! Forme is a 6 feet tall clever mirror that doubles up as a domestic fitness teacher and gadget. “We wanted to make a health gadget that’s absolutely incorporated into the house with out it being an eyesore,” says Béhar. While similar machines in the marketplace are providing cardio or yoga. With Forme you also get weight lifting, aerobics, and functional schooling on pinnacle of the standard programs. When not in use, the machine’s fingers slide lower back and it becomes an stylish reflect for your home. The instructors are very well vetted and you can song your progress by way of syncing it with your clever devices. workout product designs takes care of our body and our mind – that should be our awareness for these complex times.

Inspired by their namesake, the Matryoshka Dumbells additional weight can be brought to those dumbells by nesting the weights together. Designed with the aid of 7 nepo, these innovative health loose weights take suggestion from an unlikely, unexpected source – matryoshka Russian nesting dolls! Like the doll-in-doll system, additional weight can be added with the aid of nesting the weights together. With a short snap-in/snap-out mechanism, you may transition from mild to heavy in seconds to accommodate your exercise ordinary without interruption. When you’re completed lifting and want to squeeze in some cardio, the handles double as a leap rope with the aid of connecting an protected cord.

The Tempo Studio is a gymnasium-set or workout product designs that comes entire with a display and a motion-tracking digicam that actively scans and video display units your exercise in 3D. With built-in exercising routines which can be guided by means of expert running shoes performing live exercising sessions, the Tempo is the equal of going on a Zoom video name with your fitness center instructor. Hop onto a personalized stay consultation with a health club instructor of your desire and the trainer on the opposite aspect of the screen publications you via your exercise. Introducing the sector’s maximum transportable fitness device. Monkii bars 2 is a fitness center with the aid of Dan Vinson and David Hunt you could take anywhere! Paired with the app it’s extra than just fitness system – it’s your very own private gymnasium, personal instructor, and adventure guide built into one. Simply installation in less than a minute via striking the device from any assist structure – like a tree, swing-set, basketball goal, or maybe the door at domestic or the hotel. Then get a full-frame exercising focused on your upper frame, core, and legs thru loads of sporting events and workouts.

workout product designs as a product to let you paintings and workout at the equal time, Brian Oak’s loopy hybrid of a desk-chair and treadmill – named Fitwork, continues your legs active at the same time as you paintings. Whether you’re sitting in the front of a laptop or standing in front of one, it’s the sedentary lifestyle that Fitwork tackles. The setup (which is sure to grab some eyeballs) comes with an office chair connected to a treadmill underneath, and an elliptical in the front. Coupled with an elevating desk, the Fitwork permits you to preserve the decrease half of your frame active even as you work, supplying you with aerobic in addition to maintaining your spine engaged, whether you’re sitting or standing at the same time as running.

Habit Furniture is a espresso table/bench that inverts to turn into a exercise bench so your health gadget does no longer make use of all your space. Created via Designer Glory Tam and Doctor Albert Au, Habit lets you see and recall your priority of working out quite simply by means of staying in front of you. Whoever stated home gyms are bulky!

Mental workout is as essential as a physical exercise. Wanting to design a seat that courses you into sitting cross-leg. Gao Fenglin’s Meditation Seat can simplest be sit on in a certain way. Directing the user’s behavior and inspiring a seating function that maintains your lower back upright, and your legs folded inward. The cross-legged function unearths itself dating hundreds of years returned in Oriental and Indian cultures. Used frequently for meditation in addition to for consuming. The posture is stating to growth blood move and joint flexibility. At the same time as strengthening bones, and retaining your lower back upright. It also aids digestion. Recognizing that maximum human beings don’t have the gap for health club system in their home. Or the money for a gym membership. Or maybe the self-control to head to the gym every day. Josh Hume launched into a journey to deliver the fitness center to the household. The catch? It needed to be the smallest, maximum exhaustive (and exhausting!) gymnasium ever made. After multiple iterations, the FITT Cube became born. With its 450mm edge dimension, the FITT Cube occupies as much space as a footstool. Deriving with a mini-stepper (with its own seven-section LCD display). A rotating seat, gripping handles, a plyometric platform. Or even resistance bands. The FITT dice additionally comes with a user guide, workout chart. A nutrition manual to keep you on top of your fitness game. Arranging in their optimize formation. The FITT can be flipping over to any facet and used to workout on. Be it anything from stepping sports, to twisting physical activities, to push-ups or lifts. To even plyometric workouts. The FITT turning into design to cater to all. There’s probable a giant overlap in the Venn Diagram that indicates the intersection among Star Wars lovers and Fitness Freaks. Onnit’s variety of Star Wars-stimulated workout gear couldn’t be greater ideal for that audience. Take as an instance the kettlebells that are available rather sensible sculpting cast-iron. Model the use of the heads of Darth Vader. The Imperial Stormtrooper, and Boba Fett. The concept behind the usage of masked characters for the kettlebells no longer best makes for simpler molding (believe how annoyingly precise a Chewbacca kettlebell would want to be). However also lends a sure gravitas and badass nature to the weights. The kettlebells additionally weigh in an growing order of importance. With Boba Fett weighing in at 50 pounds, to the Stormtrooper being 60 pounds. Mister Vader weighing 70 pounds. If you wish to screen the effects of your exercise. The Circular Smart Ring with the aid of Amaury Kosman retains an impressive quantity of capability in a ridiculously small form. It does so, in general through shifting a number of the load for your smartphone. The Circular Smart Ring connects on your telephone through Bluetooth. Providing you with all your information in a well collated dashboard. During the day, the hoop captures your activity, blood oxygen levels, electricity levels, calorie burn count, among different metrics. While at night, the ring ambiently tracks your circadian rhythm and records your sleep quality. Heart-price variability, sleep disturbances, REM cycles, and sleep and wake times. Using pretty state-of-the-art information processing. Device-studying technology, the hoop, its app, and the app’s assistant Kira help you collectively higher recognize your fitness. Come up with bespoke recommendation on the way to improve it. And in case you plan to return to your old health club. Wait until they set up sanitizing methods like this award-triumphing self-sanitizing door cope with layout! Students Sum Ming Wong and Kin Pong Li were inspired through the SARS outbreak inside the 2000s. Figured that a self-sanitizing door cope with is more effective than the chemical-based cleansing tactics we are the use of right now. The handle is of a tumbler tube with aluminum caps at every stop. The complete manage is including in a powder photocatalytic coating craft from a mineral called titanium dioxide. The bacteria is decomposing thru a chemical reaction. This is activating by using UV mild reacting with the skinny coating at the glass tube. Powered by an inner generator, the manage converts kinetic energy from the opening/closing movement of the door into light power. This is how the UV mild is always doing its job. This germ-killing product truly destroying 99.8% of the microbes in the course of lab exams. That is more than what Thanos did together with his infinity stones. We understand it’s so much simpler to be lazy. When nobody is looking you. But rather than looking the information and stress-ingesting our way to another illness. Permit’s utilize this possibility to as a minimum start operating out! They say the primary 21 days are the hardest. Well, allow’s get performing with those tough days so. By the point we step outdoor to exercise, we can be in a higher position than we're now!

AS WELL. 16:40 THE IDEA IS TO CATCH A BIG SWATH 16:44 OF PEOPLE. 16:45 IT WILL HAVE TO MATCH UP WITH 16:47 THE RHETORIC AND JUDGE IT BASED 16:49 ON THAT AND SEE HOW MANY 16:50 BUSINESSES QUALIFY. 16:50 IF THE PRIME MINISTER CAN COME 16:52 OUT AND PROVIDE AN OVERALL COST 16:54 OF THE PROGRAM, THAT WILL GIVE 16:57 US AN IDEA OF HOW BIG A SWATH 16:59 THIS AIMS TO CATCH. 17:01 THAT IS SOMETHING I'M PAYING 17:02 ATTENTION TO AND LOOKING FOR 17:03 FROM THE PRIME MINISTER WHEN HE 17:04 SPEAKS ANY MOMENT NOW. 17:06 >> Rosemary: I THINK IT'S FAIR 17:07 TO SAY THAT THE GOVERNMENT IS 17:09 TRYING TO FIRE HOSE AS MUCH OF 17:12 BUSINESSES AS THEY CAN. 17:13 IT WOULD BE TO THEIR BENEFIT AND 17:16 TO THE BENEFIT OF THE ECONOMY TO 17:17 CATCH AS MANY PEOPLE AS THEY 17:20 CAN, AS YOU POINT OUT THERE, 17:22 VASSY. 17:23 I THINK THE PROBLEM IS, AS WE 17:24 HEARD FROM DAVE, AS WE HEAD INTO 17:28 THE END OF THIS MONTH AND INTO 17:30 APRIL, PEOPLE ARE GOING TO HAVE 17:32 TO START NOT PAYING RENTS ON 17:34 THEIR COMMERCIAL LEASES AND NOT 17:37 PAYING BILLS AND KEEP THINGS 17:38 GOING. 17:39 YOU CAN SEE THAT AS YOU WALK 17:41 AROUND NEIGHBOURHOODS IN THIS 17:43 CITY AND ELSEWHERE, PLACES BEING 17:48 SHUTTERED. 17:48 IT'S NOT JUST THE PRESSURE OF 17:49 WHAT IS THERE, BUT THE QUESTION 17:51 OF HOW QUICKLY CAN THEY GET IT 17:53 TO PEOPLE. 17:55 >> Vassy: EXACTLY. 17:56 CASH IS GOING TO BE KING HERE, 17:58 LIKE IT IS NORMALLY, BUT THE 18:00 C.R.B.

FOR SMALL BUSINESSES, 53:51 THERE IS THE $40,000 LOAN, OF 53:54 WHICH $10,000 WILL NOT HAVE TO 53:56 BE REPAID IF THEY MEET CERTAIN 54:00 CONDITIONS. 54:00 THERE ARE MANY THINGS WE'RE 54:01 DOING OUT

MEDICAL 54:39 SCENARIO THEY COULD BE HELPFUL. 54:42 >> Answer: THE MINISTER OF 54:43 DEFENCE WILL BE AT A PRESS 54:46 CONFERENCE LATER AND CAN GIVE 54:47 YOU DETAILS ON THAT. 54:51 BUT I CAN TELL YOU THE CANADIAN 54:56 ARMED FORCES HAVE ALWAYS BEEN 54:57 THERE TO HELP CANADIANS AND 54:59 COMMUNITIES IN DIFFICULTY, 55:00 WHETHER IT WAS BECAUSE OF 55:04 FLOODING OR OTHER EMERGENCIES. 55:05 WE KNOW THAT THERE ARE SOME 55:08 SCENARIOS UNDER WHICH THEY COULD 55:11 HELP AND WE KNOW THAT THE ARMY 55:14 COULD DO A LARGE NUMBER OF 55:21 THINGS. 55:22 WE WILL ASK FOR HELP TO WORK 55:26 WITH THE PROVINCES AND 55:27 TERRITORIES IF THERE IS A 55:29 REQUEST, BUT THE POINT IS 55:31 THEY'RE THERE IF WE NEED THEM. 55:33 >> Question: NOW, YOU SAY PEOPLE 55:35 WILL RECEIVE SEVERE PENALTIES IF 55:37 THEY ABUSE THE SYSTEM. 55:38 HOW WILL YOU KNOW AND HOW WILL 55:40 YOU PENALIZE THEM? 55:42 >> Answer: WELL, WE'LL BE 55:44 PUTTING IN PLACE A SYSTEM IN THE 55:45 COMING WEEKS TO ENSURE THAT THIS 55:50 WAGE SUBSIDY DOES GET TO 55:52 BUSINESSES AND THE MONEY GETS TO 55:54 THOSE COMPANIES WHO TRULY NEED 55:56 IT. 55:56 IF THERE ARE COMPANIES OR 55:58 INDIVIDUALS WHO TAKE ADVANTAGE 56:00 OF THE PROGRAM, THERE WILL BE 56:03 SEVERE CONSEQUENCES. 56:04 WE'RE AT A TIME WHEN CANADIANS 56:05 HAVE TO TRUST EACH OTHER AND BE 56:07 ABLE TO RELY ON EACH OTHER. 56:09 PEOPLE WHO TAKE ADVANTAGE OF A 56:11 CRISIS TO PUT MONEY IN THEIR OWN 56:17 POCKETS WILL SEE STIFF 56:20 CONSEQUENCES ON THE PART OF OUR 56:22 SOCIETY, BUT ALSO ON THE PART OF 56:24 THE GOVERNMENT. 56:27 WE'LL MORE TO SAY ABOUT

ANNOUNCED, BUT 56:43 THE BUSINESS OWNERS CAN'T TAKE 56:45 ON MORE DEBT, EVEN INTEREST-FREE 56:48 LOANS. 56:48 IS RENT REALLY ON THE TABLE FOR 56:50 THEM? 56:50 >> Answer: WE KNOW THAT A 56:52 SIGNIFICANT PART OF BUSINESS 56:55 EXPENSES ARE AROUND PAYROLL AND 56:57 OUR FOCUS IS ON SUPPORTING 56:58 WORKERS AND SUPPORTING CANADIANS 57:01 SO THEY CAN STAY HOME, SO THEY 57:03 CAN MAKE SURE WE'RE DOING THE 57:05 THINGS WE NEED TO TO GET THROUGH 57:07 THIS AS QUICKLY AND AS WELL AS 57:09 WE POSSIBLY CAN. 57:10 OUR FOCUS RIGHT NOW IS ON THIS 57:12 WAGE SUBSIDY OF 75% FOR 57:15 EMPLOYERS WHO NEED IT. 57:18 THAT WILL GIVE CANADIAN WORKERS 57:20 UP TO $847 A WEEK, DEPENDING ON 57:25 WHAT THEIR SALARY IS. 57:26 THESE ARE MEASURES THAT WILL 57:29 MAKE A HUGE DIFFERENCE IN RELIEF 57:32 FOR BUSINESSES, IN RELIEF FOR 57:34 WORKERS, IN ENSURING OUR 57:36 CAPACITY TO BOUNCE BACK, TO RUSH 57:38 BACK STRONGLY WHEN THIS IS ALL 57:41 THROUGH. 57:41 THAT IS OUR FOCUS RIGHT NOW. 57:44 AS I'VE SAID, THESE ARE MEASURES 57:46 WE'RE DOING NOW. 57:47 WE ARE ALWAYS GOING TO LOOK AT, 57:49 ARE THERE MORE THINGS WE NEED TO 57:51 DO. 57:51 ARE THERE OTHER WAYS WE CAN AND 57:54 MUST HELP PEOPLE GET

DETAILS TODAY, FIRST, THAT 58:23 WE WILL HEAR MORE ABOUT ACTUALLY 58:26 TOMORROW ABOUT HELP FOR 58:27 BUSINESSES IN THIS COUNTRY. 58:28 YOU MIGHT REMEMBER THE 58:29 GOVERNMENT LAST WEEK DECIDED TO 58:31 INCREASE THE AVAILABLE WAGE 58:33 SUBSIDY IT HAD PREVIOUSLY 58:34 ANNOUNCED ALL THE WAY UP TO 75%. 58:37 WELL, THE BIG CHANGE IN WHAT WE 58:39 HEARD FROM THE PRIME MINISTER 58:40 TODAY IS THAT IT WILL NOW APPLY 58:42 TO COMPANIES BIG AND SMALL. 58:44 IT DOESN'T MATTER HOW MANY 58:45 EMPLOYEES YOU HAVE. 58:46 IF YOU FEEL YOU NEED THE WAGE 58:49 SUBSIDY TO KEEP YOUR EMPLOYEES 58:50 ON THE PAYROLL AND PAY THEM UP 58:53 TO 75% AND -- RATHER, HAVE THE 58:58 GOVERNMENT SUBSIDIZE THEM UP TO 59:01 75%, THEY WILL DO THAT. 59:04 THE NUMBER OF EMPLOYEES DOES NOT 59:06 MATTER. 59:07 AND IMPORTANTLY, AND I KNOW THIS 59:09 IS SOMETHING MANY PEOPLE HAVE 59:11 BEEN ASKING ABOUT, IT DOES APPLY 59:14 TO NOT-FOR-PROFIT AND CHARITIES. 59:15 THEY CAN ALSO USE THIS WAGE 59:19 SUBSIDY MOVING FORWARD. 59:20 THOSE DETAILS ARE COMING 59:23 TOMORROW. 59:23 WE'RE GOING TO LEAVE YOU HERE ON 59:25 CBC TELEVISION. 59:26 IF YOU WANT TO SEE THE NOON 59:31 COVERAGE, WE'RE ON CBC NEWS 59:32 NETWORK AND ON cbc.ca. 59:35 I'M ROSEMARY BARTON. 59:36 SEE YOU BACK TOMORROW. 59:38 THANK YOU FOR WATCHING. 59:39 59:51 >> Rosemary: WELCOME BACK TO OUR 59:52 ONGOING CBC NEWS SPECIAL. 59:53 I'M ROSEMARY BARTON HERE IN 59:54 OTTAWA. 59:55 THANK YOU FOR JOINING US ON CBC 59:57 NEWS NETWORK AND STREAMING 60:00 AROUND THE WORLD ON cbc.ca. 60:03 IN JUST A FEW MOMENTS WE WILL 60:06 HEAR FROM FEDERAL OFFICIALS ON 60:11 THE PANDEMIC. 60:11 WE ARE WAITING TO SEE IF THESE 60:14 PHYSICAL DISTANCING MEASURES WE 60:15 ARE TAKING ARE REALLY GOING TO 60:16 PAY OFF. 60:17 THERE IS A HOPE AND A DESIRE 60:19 FROM THE HEALTH OFFICIALS THAT 60:21 THEY WILL. 60:22 THEY HAVE SEEN SOME GLIMMERS OF 60:24 HOPE IN BRITISH COLUMBIA, FOR 60:25 INSTANCE. 60:26 TODAY WE WILL HEAR FROM CANADA'S 60:28 TOP SOLDIER, THE CHIEF OF THE 60:31 DEFENCE STAFF, TO TALK ABOUT 60:32 POSSIBLE MILITARY INVOLVEMENT. 60:34 THE PRIME MINISTER ANNOUNCED 60:41 THAT, BUT HE SAID WE WILL WAIT 60:43 TO SEE IF THERE WILL BE 60:46 INVOLVEMENT. 60:47 WE HAVE VASSY KAPELOS AND DAVID 60:49 COCHRANE JOINING US. 60:50 VASSY, TO ME, THE BIGGEST DEAL 60:52 IS THAT IT NOW APPLIES 60:55 EVERYWHERE BIG AND SMALL. 60:56 YOU CAN TAP INTO THIS IF YOU 60:58 THINK IT CAN HELP. 60:59 >> Vassy: THE WAY I READ THAT, 61:02 AND IF IT CHANGES TOMORROW, 61:04 CORRECT ME IF I AM WRONG, IT 61:05 SOUNDS LIKE THERE WILL NOT BE A 61:07 CAP PER EMPLOYER. 61:09 THAT WAS ONE OF THE HUGE 61:11 QUESTIONS THAT SELF-EMPLOYED AND 61:15 SMALL- AND MEDIUM-SIZED 61:16 BUSINESSES HAD. 61:18 BEFORE THERE WAS A CAP. 61:18 THAT MEANS THIS APPLIES, AS YOU 61:21 RIGHTLY POINTED OUT, ROSIE, NOT 61:24 ONLY TO RESTAURANTS THAT 61:26 EMPLOYEE 20 OR 30 PEOPLE, BUT 61:28 COULD BE AN EMPLOYER THAT 61:29 EMPLOYEES 1,000 PEOPLE. 61:31 THE SPECIFICS HERE, THERE ARE A 61:33 FEW THE PRIME MINISTER GAVE, 61:34 THAT ARE RELEVANT. 61:35 UP TO 75% OF YOUR SALARY ON THE 61:38 FIRST $58,700 THAT YOU EARN. 61:44 IT WILL BE UP TO $847. 61:59 THIS APPLIES TO BIG AND SMALL 62:03 BUSINESSES. 62:03 IT DOESN'T SOUND LIKE THERE IS 62:05 AN OVERALL CAP. 62:07 THE OVERALL COST OF THE PROGRAM 62:08 WILL PROBABLY BE LARGE, BUT I 62:11 THINK THAT HEADLINE IS CERTAINLY 62:13 SOMETHING THAT A LOT OF 62:14 BUSINESSES WILL BE PAYING 62:15 ATTENTION TO. 62:15 THE OTHER THING HE MENTIONED WAS 62:18 30%, SO YOU HAVE TO HAVE -- YOUR 62:20 REVENUES HAVE TO HAVE DECLINED 62:22 BY 30% COMPARED TO PRIOR TO THE 62:23 START OF THIS PANDEMIC. 62:25 SO THE GRANULAR DETAILS THERE AS 62:28 WELL, WHAT IS THE TIME FRAME 62:30 YOU'RE LOOKING AT OVER TIME 62:32 PERIOD WILL BE SIGNIFICANT. 62:33 BUT REALLY THE BIG NEWS HERE IS 62:35 THAT IT WILL APPLY TO SMALL AND 62:37 MEDIUM AND LARGE-SIZED 62:41 BUSINESSES. 62:41 >> Rosemary: AND THAT 62:42 NON-PROFITS AND CHARITIES 62:43 BECAUSE MANY OF THEM HAD BEEN 62:44 ASKING FOR HELP. 62:46 DAVID, ONE OF THE THINGS THE 62:47 PRIME MINISTER WAS ASKED ABOUT 62:49 BUT DIDN'T GIVE AN ANSWER OTHER 62:51 THAN TO SAY WE'LL SEE. 62:54 A LOT OF THE BUSINESS OWNERS 62:55 THAT ARE E-MAILING ME SAYING 62:57 THAT'S NICE, BUT I WON'T BE ABLE 63:00 TO PAY RENT TOMORROW OR IN TWO 63:02 DAYS. 63:02 I CAN BRING ALL THESE EMPLOYEES 63:05 BACK ON THE PAYROLL OR KEEP THEM 63:06 ON THE PAYROLL, BUT IF THERE'S 63:08 NO BUSINESS TO COME BACK TO, I'M 63:10 NOT SURE HOW THAT HELPS ME. 63:11 >> David: THERE'S A COUPLE OF 63:13 THINGS. 63:13 RENT RELIEF IS A PROVINCIAL 63:15 ISSUE. 63:15 THE RENTAL MARKETS ARE 63:17 CONTROLLED PROVINCIALLY. 63:18 THAT'S SOMETHING VARIOUS 63:19 PROVINCES ARE GOING TO HAVE TO 63:21 TAKE MEASURES ON WHEN RENT IS 63:24 BEING FURLOUGHED, FOR LACK OF A 63:26 BETTER WORD. 63:27 I THINK THE VIEW OF THE FEDERAL 63:28 GOVERNMENT RIGHT NOW IS THE 63:30 $40,000 INTEREST-FREE CREDIT 63:34 LINES BEING MADE AVAILABLE TO 63:35 SMALL BUSINESSES, THAT'S WHAT 63:36 YOU CAN USE TO PAY YOUR RENT. 63:38 I HAD A LITTLE BIT MORE CLARITY 63:41 ON THE WAGE SUBSIDY, SOME 63:44 DETAILS FROM GOVERNMENT 63:45 OFFICIALS WHEN ALL OF THIS WAS 63:46 GOING ON. 63:47 THE $847 A WEEK UP TO THAT 63:50 AMOUNT. 63:51 THAT IS FOR EVERY EMPLOYEE YOU 63:54 HAVE WHETHER YOU ARE OPEN ARE 63:56 NOT. 63:57 THE SALARY CAP OF $58,700, THAT 64:00 NUMBER WASN'T PLUCKED OUT OF 64:01 THIN AIR. 64:02 THAT IS THE MAXIMUM AMOUNT OF 64:04 EARNINGS THAT QUALIFY UNDER 64:06 C.P.P. AS PENSIONABLE INCOME. 64:07 THAT IS WHY THEY HAVE GONE WITH 64:09 THAT NUMBER. 64:09 YOU WILL GET UP TO $847 A WEEK 64:13 FOR YOUR EMPLOYEES WHETHER OR 64:14 NOT YOUR OPEN. 64:15 THAT IS AN IMPORTANT POINT. 64:17 THE 25% TOP-UP IS NOT A 64:20 REQUIREMENT, BUT DO IT IF YOU 64:21 CAN. 64:22 THE TWO EXAMPLES USED, A 64:24 TRUCKING COMPANY IN QUÉBEC, THEY 64:26 WOULD HAVE A REVENUE STREAM AND 64:27 THEY COULD DO IT. 64:28 THE SALON SHUT DOWN IN CALGARY 64:32 CANNOT BECAUSE THEY'VE BEEN SHUT 64:35 DOWN FOR PUBLIC HEALTH CONCERNS. 64:38 THE COST OF THIS IS GOING TO BE 64:40 STAGGERING BECAUSE THEY ARE 64:42 ESSENTIALLY UNDERWRITING THE 64:43 FIRST 0.75 ON EVERY DOLLAR FOR 64:48 EVERY EMPLOYEE IN THE COUNTRY. 64:50 IN TERMS OF THE TEST AND THE 64:50 CONSEQUENCES THAT HE TALKED 64:52 ABOUT, THE 30% REVENUE DROP, 64:53 THAT WILL BE ASSESSED AFTER THE 64:56 FACT. 64:56 IF YOU ARE FOUND TO HAVE NOT HAD 64:59 A 30% REVENUE DROP, THERE WILL 65:01 BE A REPAYMENT REQUIREMENT OF 65:03 SOME FORM. 65:04 I DON'T KNOW IF IT'S A TOTAL 65:06 AMOUNT, IF IT COMES IN AT 27.5 65:11 AND YOU THINK IT'S 30. 65:14 THAT'S HOW THEY'RE GOING TO DEAL 65:16 WITH IT. 65:16 EVERY BUSINESS, TAKE DAYCARES IN 65:18 THIS CITY, I'VE GOT A KID IN 65:20 DAYCARE. 65:21 THAT DAYCARE IS SHUT DOWN RIGHT 65:22 NOW. 65:23 THERE IS NO REVENUE COMING IN. 65:25 THE OWNER OF THAT DAYCARE WILL 65:28 QUALIFY FOR A 75% WAGE SUBSIDY. 65:31 THEY CAN MAINTAIN THEIR 65:32 RELATIONSHIP WITH THEIR EMPLOYER 65:33 AND THE MINUTE ALL OF THIS IS 65:35 LIFTED, THEY CAN GO BACK TO WORK 65:37 WITHOUT HAVING TO REAPPLY AFTER 65:39 BEING LAID OFF. 65:40 IT MAINTAINS THAT RELATIONSHIP 65:41 AND PUTS A FINANCIAL FLOOR UNDER 65:43 THE PAYROLLS OF BASICALLY EVERY 65:46 COMPANY AND NON-PROFIT IN THE 65:49 COUNTRY DEPENDING ON HOW THIS 65:51 WILL APPLY. 65:53 IT ALLOWS THEM TO COME BACK 65:56 QUICKER. 65:56 THAT'S WHAT THIS IS ALSO ABOUT 65:58 TOO, PREPARING EVERYBODY FOR THE 65:59 TIME WHEN ALL OF THESE EXTREME 66:00 MEASURES ARE OVER AND THINGS CAN 66:03 COME BACK. 66:07 LIKE WE'VE SEEN FROM THE 66:11 C.E.R.V. IS THE POLICY WILL BE 66:12 PAY FIRST AND ASK QUESTIONS 66:15 LATER. 66:15 THEY WILL DEAL WITH PAYMENTS, 66:19 REPAYMENTS, AND FRAUD AFTER THE 66:21 FACT. 66:22 >> Rosemary: INTERESTING REALLY 66:22 FOR THE FIRST TIME WE DID HEAR 66:24 FROM THE PRIME MINISTER -- IT 66:25 HASN'T BEEN THE CASE SO MUCH 66:27 WITH THE CANADA EMERGENCY 66:28 BENEFIT, IT'S THE PRIORITY TO 66:30 GET THE MONEY OUT TO PEOPLE AS 66:32 QUICKLY AS POSSIBLE, BUT HERE 66:34 THE PRIME MINISTER CALLING FOR 66:35 GOOD FAITH AND TRUST FOR ALL 66:37 INVOLVED AND TELLING BUSINESSES, 66:40 DON'T BOTHER TRYING TO TAKE THIS 66:43 BECAUSE WE WILL GET YOU. 66:45 >> David: THIS IS A VERY BIG 66:48 CARROT SO IT NEEDS TO BE BACKED 66:51 UP BY A BIG STICK. 66:52 >> Rosemary: I'M GOING TO LEAVE 66:54 YOU TWO. 66:56 I'M GOING TO BRING BACK 66:58 DR.

YOU FOR YOUR SERVICE. 81:31 >> NOW I'LL GIVE THE FLOOR TO 81:34 THE GOVERNMENT HOUSE LEADER, 81:37 PABLO RODRIGUEZ. 81:41 >> OUR MESSAGE IS THAT 81:43 WE ARE READY AND WE HAVE ASKED 81:46 THE ARMED FORCES TO ESTABLISH A 81:50 MOBILIZATION PLAN SO THAT THEY 81:51 CAN BE PREPARED TO GO WHERE 81:52 NEEDED AND QUICKLY. 81:54 WE'RE TALKING ABOUT 24,000 81:56 MEMBERS OF REGULAR OR RESERVE 81:58 MEMBERS, WHETHER IN THE ROYAL 82:00 CANADIAN AIR FORCE, THE ROYAL 82:02 CANADIAN NAVY, AND OUR 82:04 INTERVENTION PLAN, IF REQUIRED, 82:06 WOULD BE BASED ON THREE 82:07 PRIORITIES. 82:08 FIRST OF ALL, TO SLOW THE SPEED 82:10 OF SPREADING OF COVID-19, 82:12 PROVIDING SUPPORT TO VULNERABLE 82:13 COMMUNITIES THROUGHOUT THE 82:16 COUNTRY, AND TO HELP OUR F.P.T. 82:20 PARTNERS IN THE AREA OF 82:21 LOGISTICS AND, SPECIFICALLY, 82:23 SUPPORTING MUNICIPALITIES 82:24 CONCRETELY. 82:25 WE MIGHT BE ABLE TO USE OUR 82:28 HELICOPTERS TO SUPPORT ISOLATED 82:31 COMMUNITIES, WHETHER THEY BE 82:32 INDIGENOUS COMMUNITIES. 82:34 WE MIGHT BE ABLE TO SUPPORT 82:35 PROVINCES AND MUNICIPALITIES 82:37 DIRECTLY IN THEIR EFFORTS. 82:39 WE COULD ALSO HELP WITH 82:42 LOGISTICS, TRANSPORTATION OF 82:44 MATERIAL, HUMANITARIAN 82:45 ASSISTANCE THROUGHOUT WHERE 82:47 PROVINCES AND TERRITORIES WOULD 82:48 NEED HELP. 82:49 WE KNOW THAT THE WORK COULD BE 82:53 RELATED TO SOMETHING ELSE. 82:55 WHEN WE'RE TALKING ABOUT FLOODS 82:56 AND FOREST FIRES, OUR TROOPS 82:58 WOULD BE ABLE TO PROVIDE THAT 83:00 SUPPORT, BUT ALSO HAVING THE 83:01 CAPACITY TO SUPPORT THE FIGHT 83:03 AGAINST CORONAVIRUS. 83:04 BUT LET'S BE CLEAR, AS THE 83:07 MINISTER SAID, WE ARE NOT 83:08 PLANNING TO DEPLOY OUR FORCES AT 83:11 THIS POINT. 83:12 WE HAVE DAILY CONTACT WITH THE 83:14 PROVINCES AND TERRITORIES. 83:15 FOR NOW NO PREMIER HAS ASKED US 83:21 TO DEPLOY OUR TROOPS. 83:22 IT IS FUNDAMENTAL THAT WE 83:24 CONTINUE TO DISCUSS AND EXCHANGE 83:26 AND COLLABORATE WITH THE 83:27 PROVINCES. 83:28 THAT IS ESSENTIALLY WHAT WE'RE 83:29 SAYING TODAY IS THAT WE ARE 83:31 READY TO INTERVENE IF A PREMIER 83:33 ASKS US OFFICIALLY TO DO SO. 83:35 THE PLANNING THAT THE ARMED 83:37 FORCES HAS DONE WILL ALLOW THEM 83:39 TO DEPLOY QUICKLY TO HELP 83:41 CANADIANS WHO NEED THAT HELP AND 83:42 WILL BE THERE FOR ALL CANADIANS, 83:45 REGARDLESS OF WHERE THEY ARE. 83:47 WE WON'T FORGET ANYBODY. 83:51 >> THANK YOU VERY MUCH, PABLO.

TAM WANTS TO SAY 108:06 ANY MORE ABOUT OUR MEDICAL 108:09 WORKERS. 108:09 >> SO I'VE CERTAINLY WORKED VERY 108:13 CLOSELY WITH THE CHIEF MEDICAL 108:14 OFFICER OF INDIGENOUS SERVICES 108:18 CANADA.

THAT CANADA'S 109:06 HEALTHCARE SYSTEM, WHICH IS 109:12 STAFFED BY OUTSTANDING 109:14 HEALTHCARE PROFESSIONALS, HAS 109:16 THE CAPACITY TO DEAL WITH THIS 109:18 EXTRAORDINARY CHALLENGE. 109:19 OUR JOB AS A GOVERNMENT IS TO 109:20 WORK VERY HARD TO PROVIDE OUR 109:22 HEALTHCARE SYSTEM WITH ALL OF 109:23 THE RESOURCES IT NEEDS TO TAKE 109:26 CARE OF CANADIANS, INDIGENOUS 109:28 AND NON-INDIGENOUS.

WEEKS HAVE GONE BY WHERE 110:02 ONE IS STUDYING THAT, AND I 110:05 WONDER WHERE ONE'S THOUGHTS ARE 110:07 IN TERMS OF USING THE 110:08 EMERGENCIES ACT OR NOT. 110:09 >> Answer: AS THE PRIME MINISTER 110:11 SAID THE OTHER DAY, THERE IS 110:13 ABSOLUTELY NOTHING THAT IS 110:15 EXCLUDED OR OFF THE TABLE AT 110:19 THIS POINT, BUT IT'S NOT ON THE 110:20 TABLE AT THIS POINT. 110:21 THERE ARE DISCUSSIONS ON A DAILY 110:23 BASIS WITH THE VARIOUS 110:25 PROVINCES, AND WE ARE CONFIDENT 110:26 THAT THE PROVINCES THROUGH THE 110:29 TOOLS AND THE MUNICIPALITIES ARE 110:30 CARRYING OUT THEIR WORK. 110:32 I MUST UNDERSCORE THE EXCELLENT 110:35 WORK THAT'S BEING DONE IN 110:37 QUÉBEC. 110:38 SO IT'S A TOOL THAT'S PART OF 110:40 THE TOOLBOX, BUT IT'S NOT 110:42 SOMETHING THAT WE'RE LOOKING AT 110:45 RIGHT NOW. 110:46 >> Question: THANK YOU. 110:48 WHEN WE TALK ABOUT THE POSSIBLE 110:50 INTERVENTION OF THE ARMED 110:52 FORCES, IS THERE AN ORDER 110:53 FIREFIGHTER PRIORITY THAT'S BEEN 110:56 ESTABLISHED? 110:57 FOR INSTANCE, INTERVENE IN ONE 110:59 PROVINCE FIRST RELATIVE TO 111:03 ANOTHER? 111:04 . 111:05 >> Answer: NO, THERE IS NO 111:06 PRIORITY SET. 111:07 THIS WILL BE BASED ON THE NEEDS 111:09 ON THE GROUND. 111:12 THE ASSESSMENTS THAT WILL HAPPEN 111:14 ACROSS THE COUNTRY. 111:16 WE HAVE A VERY GOOD SYSTEM IN 111:19 PLACE, BASED ON OUR PREVIOUS 111:21 EXPERIENCE, TO TRIAGE THE RIGHT 111:23 REQUESTS AND MAKING SURE THE 111:25 RIGHT SUPPORT IS PROVIDED. 111:26 HAVING SAID THIS, WE ALSO HAD TO 111:30 MAKE SURE THAT THE PLAN THAT 111:31 GENERAL VANCE HAS PUT TOGETHER 111:32 FOR THE CANADIAN ARMED FORCES 111:34 ALLOWS US TO BE VERY FLEXIBLE TO 111:36 BE ABLE TO RESPOND TO MULTIPLE 111:38 AREAS IF NEEDED. 111:39 BEING ABLE TO RESPOND TO 111:41 COMMUNITIES, WHILE AILMENT BEING 111:42 ABLE TO RESPOND TO FLOODS AND 111:44 FIRES IF NEED BE, AND AT THE 111:46 SAME TIME BEING ABLE TO RESPOND 111:49 TO NORTHERN COMMUNITIES AND 111:49 ISOLATED COMMUNITIES IF 111:52 REQUIRED. 111:52 THERE IS NO PRIORITY PER SE, BUT 111:55 WILL BE BASED ON THE EXPERT 111:57 ADVICE FROM OUR OFFICIALS. 112:00 >> THAT'S IT FOR TODAY. 112:02 THANK YOU. 112:05 >> Rosemary: ALL RIGHT. 112:07 THAT IS OUR DAILY FEDERAL 112:09 BRIEFING FROM CABINET MINISTERS 112:11 AND PUBLIC HEALTH OFFICIALS. 112:12 ONE OF THE MESSAGES THAT WE 112:14 HADN'T HEARD YET WAS THE 112:20 INVOLVEMENT OF CANADA'S MILITARY 112:21 INSIDE OF THE PANDEMIC. 112:22 WE HAD SEEN MEMOS AND REPORTS ON 112:25 HOW THEY WERE PREPARING. 112:26 WE GOT MORE DETAILS ON THAT 112:28 TODAY. 112:29 LET ME BRING IN MY COLLEAGUE THE 112:31 HOST OF "POWER & POLITICS," 112:33 VASSY KAPELOS, AND DAVID 112:35 COCHRANE. 112:35 I'LL START WITH YOU, VASSY. 112:36 UP TO 24,000 REGULAR AND RESERVE 112:39 FORCES PREPARED TO HELP IF 112:40 NEEDED. 112:41 >> Vassy: YEAH, AS DESCRIBED BY 112:43 THE DEFENCE MINISTER, HARJIT 112:44 SAJJAN, ROSIE, HE BASICALLY 112:50 TASKED THE CHIEF OF THE DEFENCE 112:52 STAFF, GENERAL VANCE, TO COME UP 112:53 WITH A PLAN. 112:54 IT SOUNDS LIKE WHAT THAT 112:56 INCLUDES, YOU'RE RIGHT, 24,000 112:59 EITHER REGULAR OR RESERVE FORCE 113:00 MEMBERS AT THE READY. 113:01 THAT WILL DEPEND ON -- "AT THE 113:05 READY," WHAT I MEAN IS THAT WILL 113:07 DEPEND ON THE NEED. 113:08 WHAT THE PRIME MINISTER OUTLINED 113:11 AND MINISTER SAJJAN REITERATED, 113:14 NO PROVINCE HAS ASKED FOR HELP, 113:15 BUT THEY ARE READY TO ASSIST. 113:18 I WILL GO OVER THE THREE AREAS 113:20 THEY COULD BECOME INVOLVED IN. 113:22 THE FIRST IS PREVENTING THE 113:24 SPREAD OF COVID-19. 113:25 HE SPECIFIED PEOPLE WHO COULD 113:27 HELP IN ENGINEERING OR MEDICAL 113:30 SUPPLIES, PEOPLE WHO HAVE 113:31 SPECIALTIES IN THE ARMY THAT 113:33 COULD BE LENT OUT TO SUPPORT IN 113:35 THOSE TASKS. 113:36 ALSO TO SUPPORT PROVINCES AND 113:37 MUNICIPALITIES IF THERE IS A 113:39 NEED FOR MITIGATION, FOR 113:40 EXAMPLE, TO HELP WITH 113:42 COMMUNITIES THAT MIGHT NEED THE 113:44 HELP, THEN THAT WILL BE PART OF 113:46 THE TASK AS WELL. 113:47 THE THIRD IS TO ASSIST 113:49 VULNERABLE COMMUNITIES. 113:51 I HEARD THE MINISTER SPECIFY THE 113:53 NORTH AND THE ARCTIC AS 113:54 POTENTIAL FOR THAT. 113:55 WE KNOW, FOR EXAMPLE, A NUMBER 113:57 OF INDIGENOUS COMMUNITIES IN THE 113:58 NORTH ARE VERY, VERY 114:01 UNDERSTAFFED WHEN IT COMES TO 114:03 MEDICAL STAFF AND LOTS OF SUPPLY 114:06 ISSUES AS WELL UP THERE. 114:07 SO YOU HAVE TO WONDER IF THERE 114:09 IS GOING TO BE A NEED FOR THE 114:11 MILITARY IN THAT CAPACITY AS 114:12 WELL. 114:12 NOT A LOT OF DETAILS ABOUT HOW 114:14 THE PROCESS WILL WORK EXACTLY, 114:16 BUT I THINK THE MESSAGE TODAY 114:17 SEEMED TO BE, OKAY, WE HAVE THIS 114:19 PLAN READY. 114:19 IF WE NEED TO, WE CAN RESPOND IF 114:22 WE ARE CALLED. 114:23 THE OTHER THING I WOULD 114:24 HIGHLIGHT THAT THEY POINTED OUT 114:26 IS THAT IF THERE ARE FLOODS, 114:28 WHICH THAT'S THE SEASON WE'RE IN 114:31 RIGHT NOW IN A NUMBER OF PARTS 114:33 OF THE COUNTRY, INCLUDING WHERE 114:35 WE ARE, IF THERE ARE FOREST 114:37 FIRES, A PLAN IS IN PLACE THAT 114:39 THE MILITARY WILL STILL BE ABLE 114:41 TO RESPOND TO THAT AND HELP IN 114:43 THOSE EFFORTS AS WE SAW LAST 114:46 YEAR IN BOTH INSTANCES WITH 114:48 FIRES AND FLOODS, WHILE STILL 114:50 BEING ABLE TO LEND THEMSELVES TO 114:52 WHERE THE NEEDS ARE TO COMBAT 114:55 THE SPREAD OF COVID-19. 114:56 THAT WAS THE OVERARCHING THEME 114:59 BEHIND TODAY. 115:02 WE WILL HAVE TO SEE THE 115:04 THRESHOLD TO WHICH THE MILITARY 115:05 IS APPLIED, BUT THIS WAS THE 115:07 BROAD STROKES OF IT. 115:09 >> Rosemary: IT'S INTERESTING 115:10 THAT GENERAL VANCE SAID TROOPS 115:14 HAD BEEN SEQUESTERED TO KEEP 115:15 THEM HEALTHY. 115:16 I ONLY HAVE A MINUTE AND A HALF 115:18 LEFT, DAVID. 115:20 IF YOU WANT TO WRAP-UP ON THE 115:23 WAGE SUBSIDY QUESTION. 115:24 >> David: THE WAGE SUBSIDY IS 115:25 THE BIGGEST ECONOMIC RESPONSE 115:27 THE GOVERNMENT HAS HAD TO 115:28 COVID-19. 115:29 IF YOUR REVENUE DROPS BY 30%, 115:31 YOU QUALIFY FOR A WAGE SUBSIDY 115:35 UP TO 75% PER EMPLOYEE 115:41 RETROACTIVE TO MARCH 15. 115:42 THERE WILL BE POST-PAYMENT 115:43 COMPLIANCE MEASURES. 115:45 IF YOU'RE FOUND TO HAVE NOT 115:47 NEEDED THIS OR HAD THE REVENUE 115:49 DROP AS SEVERE A BENCHMARK, 115:51 THERE WILL BE A REPAYMENT 115:54 OPTION. 115:54 IF YOU'RE RIPPING OFF THE 115:56 GOVERNMENT, THERE WILL BE 115:57 SERIOUS CONSEQUENCES. 115:58 IT APPLIES TO SMALL, MEDIUM, 116:01 LARGE, NOT-FOR-PROFITS, AND 116:03 CHARITIES. 116:03 THEY ARE PUTTING A FINANCIAL 116:06 FLOOR UNDER EVERYBODY SO THE 116:07 MINUTE THIS PASSES WE CAN GO 116:09 BACK TO LIFE AND START THE 116:11 ECONOMIC RECOVERY THEY ARE 116:12 HOPING WILL BE THERE. 116:13 >> Rosemary: THANK YOU, DAVID, 116:15 AND VASSY. 116:17 YOU CAN CHECK VASSY ON HER SHOW, 116:23 "POWER & POLITICS" AND DAVID 116:25 WILL BE ON "THE NATIONAL." 116:28 A REMINDER, AS OF NOON TODAY, AN 116:30 HOUR AGO, IF YOU'RE TRYING TO 116:31 GET ON A PLAIN OR A TRAIN WITH 116:33 SYMPTOMS OF COVID-19, YOU WILL 116:34 BE PREVENTED FROM DOING THAT. 116:36 I'M ROSEMARY BARTON. 116:38 STAY WITH CBC NEWS NETWORK FOR 116:39 UP TO THE MINUTE INFORMATION AND 116:42 UPDATES SOME PROVINCIAL LEADERS 116:45 WILL BRING YOU ALL THE LATEST 116:46 AND THE HEALTH OFFICIALS WHO ARE 116:48 WORKING HARD TO CONTROL THE 116:49 PANDEMIC.   Read the full article

A Court of Mist and Fury FANFICTION: PROLOGUE

When 16-year-old Feyre Archeron's life starts spinning out of control, her dad makes a choice. A choice that will change her future forever. Feyre is being transferred from Spring Court Public High School to Night Court Private School across town, a school she's only heard of for its reputation of rich, stuck-up snobs. Feyre will have to leave all of her Spring Court Public friends behind, and make a new start at Night Court Private, alone, friendless, and still recovering from the events of her sophomore year. -------------------- Prologue Incoming Call: Dad “Crap.” Ianthe glanced over my shoulder. “What?” I turned the phone over in my hands. “My dad is calling. I told him I’d be watching my phone so I could answer when he wanted to check up on me…” Ianthe laughed, and took another sip of her beer. “Ohhh, baby Feyre. Just ignore it. Where does he even think you are?” I glanced at my phone screen again. Missed call, but no voicemail. I was still in the safe zone with him for maybe another thirty minutes. “Well, I did tell him I was at a back to school party. But at the school. With chaperones. And definitely not here.” I slipped the phone into my pocket and scanned the room for Tamlin. He and Lucien had been somewhere near the keg ten minutes ago, but had disappeared since. “That man just won’t get off your case, will he? What is his deal? My parents don’t care where I go or what I do.” Easy for Ianthe to say. Her parents were richer than almost anyone in the city, except Tamlin’s family of course, and they could pay someone to find her and bring her back if they were really concerned about her. Which they weren’t. Me on the other hand? That was a whole different story. “He’s worried about me I guess. Ever since the end of sophomore year, when things. . Happened… He still won’t loosen the leash. Thinks I’ll ruin my chances at a college scholarship, or that I’ll lose my job. You know this.” She opened her mouth to respond, but at that moment we caught sight of Tamlin and Lucien, coming up from Tam’s basement and now heading in our direction. I smiled and bounced through the crowd of teenagers over to Tamlin, oddly eager to escape Ianthe for a bit. “Hey babe.” Tamlin caught me around the waist and gave me an almost pleasant kiss on the lips, his breath tinged with the smell of alcohol. “Feyre.” He glanced down at my cup. “You’ve barely drank anything. How are we supposed to have fun? School starts next week. It’s our last chance to let loose without any responsibility for who knows how long.” I cast around for something to say besides of the main reason I wasn’t drinking. “You know my dad is watching me like a hawk right now. He doesn’t even know I’m here.” He grabbed my cup and knocked it back in two gulps. “Guess I’ll have to make up for the both of us.” I giggled, grabbing his hand. “I have to be home by 11, so we’ve got an hour. Let’s get out of here. It’s packed.” **** 10:45. Where was my bag? It’d take me five minutes to go home, so I needed to leave probably within the next seven. Tamlin had been called downstairs to help find more alcohol a few minutes ago, leaving me alone in the bedroom we’d been making out in. I hadn’t realized how late it was. I stood, straightening my clothes. Then I noticed how many calls I had missed. Five. And three voicemails, all from my father. Great. This was the first time all summer he’d let me go anywhere besides work or the school for my “service project” and I’d screwed it up. Now he’d never forget what happened last year. I phoned my dad and found my purse, kicked under the bed. He picked up just as I was heading downstairs. “Feyre Archeron, why the hell did you not call me back? We had an agreement. I–” But I didn’t hear the rest of what he said because Tamlin was suddenly right in front of me. He grabbed my phone and said, “She’ll call you back,” before ending the call and pushing me up against the front door. “Leaving so soon? Come on, Feyre. Stay. Who cares about your dad?” Still a little shocked by the fact that he’d just hung up on my father, no questions asked, it took me a second to regain my senses. “Tam you know I— My dad is—I’ve got to get home. Please let go of me.” He stared into my eyes for a few seconds before releasing my waist and backing away. “I can drive you home,” he said, slurring his words a little. “NO. I mean, no, that’s okay. I’m sober, remember? I’ll see you at school on Monday.” I turned to go, opening the door. I really wished he’d just let me get out of there. My dad was going to flip. He whipped me around for one more kiss, sliding his hands down my sides as he did so. His breath really didn’t smell very pleasant. “Love you, Feyre.” I turned and headed down the porch steps. “You too, Tam.” **** “I’m sorry. WHAT did you just say to me?” My dad paced in front of the fireplace, his fist wrapped around my phone and my keys. “You’re grounded. I do not like you with that Tamlin boy, nor am I a big fan of that Isabelle brat. You clearly were not at Spring Court High’s Back to School Bash. You were at his house, weren’t you? You reek of alcohol–” Damn Tamlin. “–you’re fifteen minutes past your curfew, you ignored my calls all night, your boyfriend hung up on me, and to cap it all, you haven’t changed a lick since the end of last year.” “Her name is Ianthe. And I have too changed! It wasn’t me drinking, it was Tam–” Oh no. “Oh, so it was just your boyfriend sent from Heaven above drinking, huh? And the fifty other people at his party. I’ve heard stories about those parties, Feyre. And I don’t like the idea of you being there. You’ve got your future and your job to think about, and these people are inappropriate influences on you.” He stopped pacing for a moment, and looked me square in the eyes. He seemed to be coming to an important decision about something. I’d better do something, quick. “I’m telling you, things have changed. I didn’t drink tonight, and I paid really close attention to the time. I just got caught up leaving the party. I tried to call you back, I really did. But you didn’t answer after I got in the car. At least I’m here now, right?” Maybe if I compared now to last year, he’d forget about this. It didn’t really look like that would happen, though. “Feyre. I’ve tried to get you back on track, I really have. But I can’t help thinking that this is about your friends, too, and not just you making these decisions. I’ve got no choice. I don’t want you to ruin your life because of these decisions you’re making when you’re sixteen.” Something bad was coming. I could feel it. “I”m transferring you to Night Court High, across town.” What. The. Hell. “You’re kidding.” “No, Feyre, I’m not. I’ve talked to some of my work friends about you and this is the only thing I can think of that we haven’t tried yet. I want you out of Spring Court Public and into Night Court Private this year. It’ll be a better environment, with better academics. I even hear they have a fantastic dance program you could join.” This wasn’t happening. My dad was strict, but this was extreme, even for him. “But–But– Dad. You can’t do this. All my friends are at Spring! And I quit dance last year anyways, I don’t care about that anymore. There’s nothing for me at Night Court. I’m a junior–I can’t just switch schools in the middle of my high school career!” But my dad had the look on his face that he gets when he’s made up his mind. It’s the same look he had two months ago when he had told me I was grounded for the whole summer. The only way I’d convinced him to let me out of the house was to tell him I had a mandatory service project at Spring that I had to see through to the end. In reality, I was hanging out with Tam or Ianthe or Lucien or all three a couple times each week. But my father didn’t know that, and I could tell he wasn’t going to budge on me switching schools the same way he hadn’t budged about my grounding all summer. “I’ll get it squared away tomorrow. I have a favor to pull at NCP anyways, so you’ll be starting at Night Court Private on Monday. I may even be able to get you a tour tomorrow, too.” I didn’t say anything. My world was ending. School without Tamlin? School without ANY friends? And I’d heard stories about the mysterious private school across town… Stories of the most stuck-up kids in town, medium-rich, their parents ready to send them to an expensive school just to prove how much money they had. Tam and Ianthe hated those kids, told me all about how they were the most fake people on the planet. And the things they did… I’d heard stories about that too… I’d only ever met a few kids from NCP, and it’d been so long ago I couldn’t remember many details besides the fact that most of them were rich and good looking. “Dad–” I tried again, but he cut me off. “Go to bed, Feyre. We’ll talk more about this in the morning. But I want you out of Spring Court Public, and that’s final.“ I waited, holding my breath, as he cemented my sentencing with his words. "You’re going to the Night Court.”

Human-to-human transmission confirmed in China coronavirus

BEIJING — The head of a Chinese government expert team said Monday that human-to-human transmission has been confirmed in an outbreak of a new coronavirus, a development that raises the possibility that it could spread more quickly and widely.

Team leader Zhong Nanshan, a respiratory expert, said two people in Guangdong province in southern China caught the virus from family members, state media said. Some medical workers have also tested positive for the virus, the English-language China Daily newspaper reported.

The late-night announcement capped a day in which authorities announced a sharp uptick in the number of confirmed cases to more than 200, and China’s leader called on the government to take every possible step to combat the outbreak.

“The recent outbreak of novel coronavirus pneumonia in Wuhan and other places must be taken seriously,” President Xi Jinping said in his first public statement on the crisis. “Party committees, governments and relevant departments at all levels should put people’s lives and health first.”

Xi’s remarks were reported by state broadcaster CCTV on its main 7 p.m. evening news broadcast.

In Geneva, the World Health Organization announced it would convene an Emergency Committee meeting on Wednesday to determine whether the outbreak warrants being declared a global health crisis.

Such declarations are typically made for epidemics of severe diseases that threaten to cross borders and require an internationally coordinated response. Previous global emergencies have been declared for crises including the ongoing Ebola outbreak in Congo, the emergence of Zika virus in the Americas in 2016 and the West Africa Ebola outbreak in 2014.

The spread of the viral pneumonia comes as the country enters its busiest travel period, when millions board trains and planes for the Lunar New Year holidays. The outbreak is believed to have started late last month when people picked it up at a fresh food market in Wuhan, a city in central China.

Wuhan health authorities said Monday an additional 136 cases have been confirmed in the city, raising the total to 198. Three have died.

Authorities elsewhere also announced cases in other Chinese cities for the first time.

Five individuals in Beijing and 14 in Guangdong have also been diagnosed with the new coronavirus, CCTV reported Monday evening. A total of seven suspected cases have been found in other parts of the country, including in Sichuan and Yunnan provinces in the southwest and in Shanghai.

Zhong said the two people in Guangdong had not been to Wuhan but fell ill after family members had returned from the city, the China Daily said.

The outbreak has put other countries on alert as millions of Chinese travel for Lunar New Year. Authorities in Thailand and in Japan have already identified at least three cases, all involving recent travel from China.

South Korea reported its first case Monday, when a 35-year-old Chinese woman from Wuhan tested positive for the new coronavirus one day after arriving at Seoul’s Incheon airport. The woman has been isolated at a state-run hospital in Incheon city, just west of Seoul, the Korea Centers for Disease Control and Prevention said in a statement.

At least a half-dozen countries in Asia and three U.S. airports have started screening incoming airline passengers from central China.

Videos posted online show people in protective suits checking one-by-one the temperatures of plane passengers arriving in Macao from Wuhan. A man surnamed Yang who works for the Macao Health Bureau confirmed over the phone that such checks are taking place in the southern Chinese region.

Canada’s Chief Medical officer, Dr. Theresa Tam, said additional signage will be in place in the coming days at airports in Toronto, Montreal and Vancouver. There will also be additional screening questions at electronic kiosks at customs asking people if they have traveled to areas where coronavirus is and if they have flu like symptoms.

“The Chinese lunar year is coming so out of abundance precaution that’s why we are putting out additional information for travelers,” Tam said.

Many of the initial cases of the coronavirus were linked to a seafood market in Wuhan, which was closed as authorities investigated.

Since hundreds of people who came into close contact with diagnosed patients have not gotten sick, the municipal health commission maintains that the virus is not easily transmitted between humans.

China’s National Health Commission said experts have judged the current outbreak to be “preventable and controllable.”

“However, the source of the new type of coronavirus has not been found, we do not fully understand how the virus is transmitted, and changes in the virus still need to be closely monitored,” the commission said in a statement Sunday.

Coronaviruses cause diseases ranging from the common cold to SARS, or severe acute respiratory syndrome. SARS first infected people in southern China in late 2002 and spread to more than two dozen countries, killing nearly 800. The Chinese government initially tried to conceal the severity of the SARS epidemic, but its cover-up was exposed by a high-ranking physician.

“In the early days of SARS, reports were delayed and covered up,” said an editorial in the nationalistic Global Times. “That kind of thing must not happen again in China.”

“We have made great strides in medicine, social affairs management and public opinion since 2003,” the editorial said.

Xi instructed government departments Monday to promptly release information on the virus and deepen international cooperation.

China has notified and maintained close communication with the World Health Organization and other relevant countries and regions, Chinese Foreign Ministry spokesman Geng Shuang said at a regular news briefing.

Wuhan has also adopted measures to control the flow of people leaving the city, Geng said.

The virus causing the current outbreak is different from those previously identified, Chinese scientists said earlier this month. Initial symptoms of the novel coronavirus include fever, cough, tightness of the chest and shortness of breath.

On the Weibo social media platform, which is widely used in China, people posted prevention advice such as wearing masks and washing hands. State broadcaster CCTV recommended staying warm, increasing physical activity, eating lightly and avoiding crowded places. Some people said they had canceled their travel plans and were staying home for Lunar New Year.

Blue Skies Ahead For GreenSky

GreenSky (GSKY) is a Fintech IPO from last year that has stumbled out of the gate. As a result, it trades at about half its value from a year ago. The company, based in Atlanta, offers a Point of Sale (POS) technology solution (in store, on the web or via an app) to merchants to offer 60 second loan decisions for consumers in the home improvement and elective surgery verticals. The loans, which cater to prime and super prime customers, if approved, are then passed on to one of GreenSky’s banking partners (which tend to be regional banks who don’t have the tech to offer this service to merchants themselves) to service. The POS loans are often much more attractive to consumers because of lower rates compared to credit cards, as well as much simpler than utilizing a home equity line of credit. GreenSky makes money in two ways: (1) They get a take rate (typically 7%) off the transaction the consumer makes with the merchant when they’re approved for the loan and; (2) They make a small fee (usually 1%) off the servicing value of the loans which get approved and then passed over to the banks. GreenSky IPO’ed last year in June around $23/share with a $4 billion market cap. It currently trades at about half that. What happened to cause the stock drop?

Besides the fourth quarter sell-off that affected the whole market, on the November earnings call, GreenSky management announced that the steeper yield curve had caused them to have to push out further some of their profits from the quarter. It was seen by some analysts as a sign that merchants weren’t passing on the cost of higher interest rates to consumers and this caused concern that GreenSky’s take rate would drop if rates kept rising. GreenSky management disputed that on the call.

GreenSky management also discussed how they had a solar business (with a much higher take rate) that had dropped significantly as a percentage of their business from 2017.

The stock went from a high of $26 post-IPO to a low of $8 in December. It’s now at $12 and they had an earnings call in March that reassured the Street that management’s explanation in November was valid.

Some still question whether GreenSky can make money in a rising rate environment or an end of cycle period when there is a risk of taking on lower-quality consumers who default.

What’s interesting to me about GreenSky is:

Similar to Twilio (TWLO) a year ago, they’re seen a “failed IPO.” In my opinion, all the things which initially made investors about GreenSky are still valid. They have a bright management team who – in my view - will perform over time.

They are going after a big total addressable market (TAM) now in home improvement and elective surgery with an easy opportunity to expand into other verticals with even bigger TAMs. Management has said they’re scratching less than 1% of the addressable market for home improvement and elective surgery today.

They have been growing quickly in the last few years, with top line revenues increasing in the 30% range.

Best-in-class profitability for Fintech due to low customer acquisition costs. Due to the nature of GreenSky’s POS tech being right at the point-of-sale once used by merchants – and getting recommended by their banking partners to merchants because of the win-win-win nature of their tech for all parties involved, GreenSky has very low customer acquisition costs compared to most in the Fintech space. As a result, their EBITDA margins are in the high 30%s making them a stand out.

No balance sheet risk. They are referring loans to banking partners, not taking them on themselves (although they are incented to refer good customers due to their continuing to make money from the servicing of those loans).

Going after prime and super prime customers. 71% of their customers have FICO scores above 700. This makes them highly attractive for GreenSky’s banking partners. Additionally, this helps mitigate the concern which some have raised about how GreenSky will perform at the end of a cycle. Their customers should continue to service their loans and GreenSky management has said they still have so much opportunity in front of them that they have no need or incentive to go after lower quality customers.

Deeper moat than perceived. Its POS tech combined with providing merchants an omnichannel approach (POS, web and app approvals for customers in 60 seconds) is highly attractive to both merchants and the regional banking partners who likely can’t continue to make the Fintech investments like the larger banks can and which further attracts them to partnering with GreenSky.

GreenSky’s cohort data to date shows recurring revenue nature of their relationships with merchants (with net dollar expansion rates steady around 100%) even though their business is primarily based on a take rate for customer introductions.

Google Trends suggest steady growth of interest in GreenSky over the past year (although no doubt some of these searches come from the IPO of the stock).

After last November, the company put in place a $150 million stock buyback. They’ve already spent about $50 million of that to date, so they are moving quickly. When complete, this buyback could shrink the float by up to 25%.

Like the case of Twilio last year, the best time to buy a stock is when it’s a great company that’s had an explainable stumble and is under-valued relative to its likely growth path in the coming years. When they IPO’ed last year, sell-side analysts suggested that, due to their highly unique business model (which is nothing like LendingClub (LC) and is similar to Visa (V) or MasterCard (MC) except more profitable and at a much earlier-stage), GreenSky should be valued at 33x next year’s earnings. They’re currently being valued at less than half of that.

When you combine the fact that – again my view – this is a very strong management team (with a big economic stake in the business) which has now been embarrassed by the stumble last Fall, they have a high incentive to make a big comeback this year and next year. I expect their guidance for this year is even more sand-bagged than would typically be the case.

Management has announced a large pilot with American Express a couple of quarters ago which has already started and is expected to be rolled out further as this year progresses. The partnership is not built into their 2019 guidance at all, so it’s all upside.

Although management’s explanation that rising or falling rates will not affect their take rate over time because these rates are passed on by merchants to consumers (who still get attractive rates on a relative basis), we saw on the November call that quickly rising rates mean that some current quarter profitability can get pushed out to be recognized later. In the current quarter, rates have dropped suddenly. Therefore, you would expect to see the reverse situation of some surprise profits being recognized sooner in this current quarter when they announce next in May.

Open Questions for Debate:

Of course, you can’t take management’s word for everything. We will have to see how they handle rising (or falling) rates over time and how this affects their take rate. Management has also said that consumers will still find their loans attractively priced (on a relative basis) even if rates rise. Some critics will want to see it before they believe it.

There will likely continue to be a debate on if GreenSky Is a tech company or is more like a smaller consumer lender with no real tech advantage. In my view, it’s unique and will deserve a premium multiple over time. Currently, sell side analysts are taking a skeptical view. Management will have to perform to be the final arbiter of this debate. Assuming they can perform, I expect investors will rush back in to the stock.

End of cycle worries. Skeptics think that, if there is an end of cycle to the current economic boom, this will cause consumers to pull back spending, increase defaults, and cause banks to pull back their available capital to GreenSky and its merchants. In the past few quarters, management has increased its available capital to now around $12 billion. They are focused on the prime and super prime customers, which the banks are also interested in lending to.

Where could the stock go if it works?

There’s a risk and reward in every stock. What I like about GreenSky currently is that its valuation seems much closer to the low expectations end of the spectrum compared to starry-eyed growth continuing forever valuations.

When GreenSky IPO’ed last year, several sell-side analysts said that it should be valued – due to its growth profile and high profitability – as 33x next year’s earnings or 22x next year’s EBITDA. Yet, due to the Fall sell-off, it’s currently valued at 14x next year’s earnings and 9x next year’s EBITDA.

In my view, management will be able to win back this type of premium multiple as it executes in the coming quarters.

If GreenSky simply performs to their sand-bagged guidance, the original IPO multiples should take it $30/share by the end of the year which would be more than a double. This also isn’t taking in to account the potentially much smaller float which will exist then. However, if there are some upside surprises which management can pull out of its hat, I could envision the stock trading up to $35 – 40/share

Longer term, management has said that their current TAM is $600 billion and they’re only scratching the surface of it. They’ve also said that they expect their banking partners to pull them into other natural verticals which would add another $800 billion of TAM. If they can grow to a 10% market share of that addressable market over many years, with their take rates and EBITDA margin profile, it’s not inconceivable that GreenSky could be a $90 billion company one day.

In the shorter term, GreenSky to me looks like a $100/share stock in 3 years and a possibly a $500/share stock in 5 – 7 years
