Tonight at ten the unequivocal evidence of Climate Change revealed by International Scientists led by the uk met office. They say a prolonged heatwave in the Siberian Arctic this year would be impossible without man made global warming. Here in the uk and the rest of europe, the findings are of serious concern, because the arctic drives much of the weather we experience. Six main weather systems around the uk, and four of those six comes from the polar regions, all from the arctic directly, so whilst a lot of this is uncertain, if something happens in the arctic, its going to be reasonable to assume that somethings going to happen in the uk too. Well be exploring what the change could mean for life in western europe. Also tonight. China expresses anger and warns of repercussions after the uk decides to exclude huawei from its 56 mobile network on security grounds.

Maybe real profits hi, everybody and welcome. Another day, you guess to do, another record high for stocks yes, the dow ended lower but earlier in the session it broke above 29,000 for the first time ever. Everybody, though seems to be buying into the big caps with you will a the money going to the massives, small caps are all but ignored. Lower on the year. S in random but interesting. The russell 2000 is not hit a new record high since mid2018 at some point they stop the music, guy adami when they do tell us about the small caps. It was actually august of 2018, the iwm measuring the small caps topped at 174 frankly havent gotten anywhere close. Recently we breached 165 but still significantly off the alltime highs with the s p now making alltime highs. I do think thats problematic. You can make any number of arguments. Maybe the russell is more emblematic of the real economy i dont know butly say, i happen to believe the russell could lead the Broader Market by a couple of months if
All right. I have a Staggering Number of powerpoint slides for this. Get your bets down now on whether i can get through them or not. I will even omit my customary lame professor humor, about the ncaa tournament, for example. Thats how serious this is. Lets think for a minute, though, about where were situated, what were working on here. In this last third of the course that we started last week, were dealing with the postrevolutionary era. Weve built this idea that something radical and transformative happened to music in the 1960s. Weve worked hard over the course of several weeks to establish those ideas. And we cant leave it, though, just as a kind of baby boomer nostalgia for the days that were. What weve been trying to deal with then, though, is this sense of pervasive disappointment, that the revolution somehow ended in the early 1970s. The popular music became a disappointment, aesthetically, politically. Thats the cliche. We saw plenty of evidence for it. What weve been trying
Postrevolutionary era. Weve built this idea that something radicaand transformative happened to music in the 1960s. Weve worked hard over the course of several weeks to establish those ideas. And we cant leave it, though, just as a kind of baby boomer nostalgia for the days that were. What weve been trying to deal with is this sense of pervasive disappointment, that the revolution somehow ended in the early 1970s. The popular music became a disappointment, aesthetically, politically. Thats the cliche. We saw plenty of evidence for it. What weve been trying to do is to say ok. Maybe if we shift perspective, maybe if we dont simply buy the assumptions that went into the age of countercultural music, if we do that, we may well see music engaged in a different way. Weve started out is by saying isnt it the case that popular music in the u. S. In the 1970s was doing what popular music typically had done well before the 1960s . Which is to mediate relationships between men and women, to medi
