Youtube daily report Mar 26 2018

Vsauce!

Kevin here.

The Colorado potato beetle, first observed innocently eating native plants in the Rocky

Mountains in 1811, went crazy when potatoes, native to South America, were introduced to

the U.S.

These beetles were like, "Wow potatoes are delicious" The beetles were right.

But their potato-hunger is so devastating to crops, entire propaganda campaigns were

launched in World War II and again during The Cold War claiming that the CIA was dropping

the "American Bug" in places like Germany and Eastern Europe as a form of insect warfare.

The Colorado potato beetle has been a major potato problem.

But potatoes have never been paradoxical, right?

Wrong.

ENTER: THE POTATO PARADOX.

It goes like this: say you've got 100 pounds of potatoes and 99% of their weight is water.

The other 1% of their weight is solid potato stuff -- starches, proteins, pectins, minerals,

that kind of stuff.

You leave them out overnight and they dry out a little bit.

When you wake up, they're only 98% water, that would make 2% of it solid.

So, how much does your sack of spuds weigh now?

While you think about it, let's get real for a second with real potatoes, not paradoxical

ones.

So, real potatoes are 79% water by weight.

So I cut this to exactly 100 grams, which means this 79 grams of water.

Looks thirst quenching.

79% is a lot, but we can go higher.

Per 100 grams, Watermelon is 91% water.

But what's more water than watermelon?

Lettuce.

Lettuce is almost 95% water.

Meaning, salad is 5% away from being soup.

Back to our paradox… probably a good idea to get back to that.

Probably broke the scale.

Anyway, we have 100 pounds of paradox potatoes, and the percentage of water weight goes down

by 1% overnight so their weight today would be 99 pounds.

A common answer.

And a good one.

If by "good" you mean…

After this tiny change, your sack of spuds would actually weigh 50 pounds.

The 1% shift in composition cuts its weight in HALF.

How?

Well, the easiest way to visualize the solution is with potatoes.

100 of them.

OHHHH NO NO…

So here are 100 potatoes.

You must hug your potatoes so that they know that you care.

This one painted potato, a lovely space age silver, is the 1% of solid potato matter that

we start with.

The other 99 represent the water.

When the potatoes dry out, the amount of solid matter doesn't change.

Only the water goes away.

So, if we remove ONE unit of water we now have 99 pounds of stuff, 1 of which is dry,

98 of which are water.

So, let's just do a little calculation here.

98 out of 99 is 98%... but .989899.

We don't want all those point 9 things, we just want 98 percent.

Okay, so that's too much water.

Let's just remove another water, alright, so now we have 97 out of the 98 pounds here

are water.

So, we'll do 97 out of 98 and...

98.979591836%.

That's too much.

It's just too much water.

There's got to be a better way.

Here's the problem: This is lowering really slowly because for every unit of water that

dries away, the total amount that's left ALSO goes down.

To see how many we need to take away, let's look at the final result.

Excuse me, potatoes.

Okay, here's what we've got going on here.

Okay, so.

We need to reduce how much water we have not to 98 or 97… but to 49.

And here's why:

So we have 98%, 2% solid, but we only have 1 solid unit.

So let's turn that 2 into a 1.

So, we'll divide 2 by 2 and we get 1.

So we've got to do the same thing now to our 98, so we'll divide 98 by 2 and that

equals 49.

So 49 plus 1 equals 50, and 50 pounds is the answer.

So, we've got to get rid of SO MANY water potatoes.

I don't know how many are left, but it should be 49 waters and 1 solid.

And 49 divided by 50 is exactly 98%.

We did it!

That's the answer.

The potato paradox comes into play every time there are two items and the concentration

of one doubles.

That requires the other one's size to be reduced by half of the whole, whether it's

doubling from 1% or .00001%.

Or 10%.

Ask your friends to solve this problem and see what they say.

Most of the time, our first response is to assume that not much has changed since 1%

is so small.

This isn't something to be ashamed of -- our brains evolved to compare quantities like

this: there's one wooly mammoth and there's five of us.

Or, how much food do we need to keep the family surviving through the winter?

Evaluating concentrations is more abstract and not usually a life-or-death issue that

natural selection would play a role in shaping.

Unlike other famous paradoxes, time travel ones for example, the POTATO paradox is a

VERIDICAL paradox, which means it has a TRUE solution we can all agree on and prove, but

is nonetheless surprising.

So, the potato paradox is a kind of paradox not built on misunderstandings or impossibilities

or speculation but instead, is one that really teases out how the mind works.

Now if you'll excuse me, I have a vintage potato toy to turn into a potato man before

he loses 1% of his water composition and half his weight.

And as always - thanks for watching.

The awesome potato paradox animation at the beginning of this video was created by VFX

wizard Eric Langlay using After Effects.

If you want to learn how to do cool visual effects, there are dozens of courses just

on After Effects over at Skillshare.

And they're taught by experts who really know what they're doing, so you'll really

learn what you're doing, whether you need to know the basics -- OH, LOOK OUT -- or you

just want to learn some new techniques.

Which, I think we all can always use some new techniques.

An annual Skillshare subscription is less than ten bucks a month and the first one thousand

people to use the promo link at the top of this video's description will get their

first two months for just 99 cents, which is less than this potato cost me.

And I would give this guy an arm… or a hand…

I guess he has an arm, but the hand, it's broken.

Listen, this thing is 60 years old.

It's amazing that it… ok, let's see if it... doesn't.

What if it stood… will this hold it?

WILL THIS HOLD IT?

IT HOLDS IT!

The Potato Man lives and breathes in a potato stand.

I didn't mean for that to rhyme, but it did.

Let's look at this thing for a second.

Mr. Potato Head Funny Face kit, this was the original thing.

And it really wasn't just for potatoes, you can see you can make peppers, beets, oranges,

apples…

OHHH NOOOOO!

Really, it was all about turning vegetables into people, which I think is something we

can all get behind.

*sigh* I have so much to clean up.

Dr. J. Malon Southerland '65 - Duration: 3:32.

- I was born in a little town in Flora, Illinois

This was 1942, so the war was getting going.

My father was in the oil field business

so therefore, they moved every three months

somewhere, and moved all throughout the midwest

and then back to Texas.

I was involved in high school in ROTC

so that created an interest.

I enjoyed ROTC, I had good success there.

I had a few victories.

And so I had an interest in Texas A&M

I entered with the class of '64

in the fall of '60.

I graduated from high school in '60

I had a wonderful year, enjoyed being on the

Fish Drill Team, and had very few grade points.

- [Narrator] Dr. J. Malon Southerland

class of 1965 graduated from Texas A&M

with a degree in management.

He was a member of Company F2, G3, A3

and was a member of the Fish Drill Team.

After active duty in the United States Army,

he returned to Texas A&M in 1968 as a counselor

in the Commandant's office.

After completion of a Ph.D.

in 1980 in Education Administration,

he became an Assistant to the President of

Texas A&M, and later the Associate Vice President

for Student Services.

In 1986, he served as the Interim Commandant

for the Corp of Cadets.

Dr. Southerland was named Vice President of

Student Affairs in 1993, and served

until his retirement in 2003.

He is a Vice President Emeritus,

and has served on numerous boards,

including Chairman of the Board of the

Greater Texas Foundation, and the

Texas Guaranteed Student Loan Corporation.

Texas A&M University, and the Texas A&M Foundation

named him the namesake of the Southerland

Aggie Leader Scholarships.

Dr. Southerland was named an honorary

member of the Ross Volunteer Company

by the class of 1988, and is a past

Association of Former Students class agent

for the class of 1965.

- The interactions with students

is honestly the only thing that I truly miss

in retirement.

The students came up with the idea after nine eleven

within like a week, before the next home game

to change to red, white and blue t-shirts

throughout the entire stadium.

They actually came to visit with me

and said, "well if this doesn't work,

we're going to have lost some money

will you back us up?"

Well, they didn't lose money

they made a couple hundred thousand

dollars and we sent them to the firemen

in New York City and it's a big easy statement to see.

But individual successes are, they're everywhere.

Persistence and hard work are very significant items

that if you can apply those, you can probably

overcome some shortcomings.

Facebook admits collecting phone calls and texts from people's phones, but

claims it had consent. Facebook has made clear that it harvests

data on people's phone calls and text messages but it says that people

consented to having that information collected and that it was only used to

"provide you with a better experience across Facebook." In the wake of the

Cambridge analytica scandal many have looked into the data that is being

collected by Facebook which can be done by downloading the company's file on you

from it's website. As they did so some of the users picked through the data and found

something shocking. That it contained a long list of messages they had sent and

phone calls they have made in some cases going back years. I saw this article and

I wanted to know how to do it myself so just to show you real quick how to go

through this and find the information that they're showing you that they have.

Click this right here click on settings when you're on this page just click "download a copy"

I'll send you to a page that looks like this or something similar to it as I've

already downloaded mine, it will send you a confirmation email

letting you know that they're going to send you the data. About 10 minutes later I received

my link click that downloaded it all the data since the beginning of your

Facebook time is there, your messages, your contacts emails I haven't found any text

messages or phone calls I've made yet but I don't use the messenger app either

The Most Useful Fossils in the World - Duration: 7:00.

Thanks to CuriosityStream for supporting PBS Digital Studios.

It may not surprise you to learn that some kinds of fossils are more common than others.

Most dinosaurs, for instance, are known from only one or two specimens.

Meanwhile, some trilobite species are known from hundreds or thousands of specimens.

But one of the most abundant kinds of fossils on Earth, numbering in the millions of specimens,

came from something most people have never heard of.

And for decades, their identity was a mystery to paleontologists.

But geologists figured out that these mysterious fossils could basically be used to tell time

in the deep past!

Please allow me to introduce you to the conodonts.

From the time they were first discovered in the 19th century, and right up until the 1980s,

conodonts were only known from isolated hard parts, called conodont elements.

Some of them looked like little fans, or saw blades, or even barbed wire, but most of them

looked like cone-shaped teeth.

So they were given the name conodont, which means "cone tooth."

These elements are all verrry tiny.

Most are under one millimeter, and none greater than five millimeters long.

And for a long time, paleontologists were totally stumped about what animals these things

belonged to, and where on the Tree of Life they belonged.

Some experts thought that, although they look kind of like teeth, their similarities to

teeth are pretty superficial.

But others pointed out that the fossils were made from a mineral called hydroxylapatite.

This is the same mineral that bones and teeth are made from in vertebrates.

So, this led many scientists to think that they were teeth, maybe from some kind of weird,

extinct fish.

But while paleontologists were spending a hundred years or so debating what conodonts

were, geologists were discovering what conodonts could do.

When a species is really abundant, widespread, distinctive, and found in a restricted span

of time, their remains can be used as Index Fossils.

These are fossils that help geologists correlate and date rock layers all over the world.

And conodonts were all of those things -- abundant, widespread, and composed of lots of distinctive

species.

So they turned out to be some of the most important index fossils from the whole Paleozoic

Era.

In fact, many subdivisions of the Paleozoic are actually defined by when certain conodont

species first or last appear.

For instance, you know when the Devonian Period ends and the Carboniferous Period begins,

because that's when you start finding fossils that belong to a species of conodont known

as Siphonodella sulcata.

Likewise, in the Triassic Period, nearly every age is defined by the first appearance of

various conodonts.

The extinction of Metapolygnathus parvus marks the end of the Carnian, for example, while

the start of the Rhaetian is defined by the first appearance of the genus Misikella.

So, geologists are able to use these fossils to basically tell time!

But conodont elements can do more than just that!

They're also, essentially, geological thermometers!

It turns out that conodont elements actually change color when they're heated up.

And no matter what species they belong to, they go through the same range of color changes

at the same temperatures.

Geologists have used these fossils to devise a six-point scale of how they change from

their natural tan color, to brown, then gray, then black, and finally white, as they get

hotter and hotter.

With this scale, called the Conodont Alteration Index, geologists can use the color of a conodont

that they find, to figure out how hot the surrounding rock once was.

And this can be really important in fields like petroleum geology, because it can reveal

whether sediments ever got hot enough for organic hydrocarbons to be converted into

oil and gas.

So conodont elements quickly became one of the handiest tools in the geologist toolkit.

But meanwhile, paleontologists still had no idea what kind of animals conodonts were.

In the 1970s, fossils of some vaguely fish-like creatures were found in Montana that were

thought to be conodont animals.

But further study revealed that the conodont elements found in those fossils were actually

in the animals' guts.

So it turned out that they weren't conodont animals; they were fossils of creatures that

ate conodont animals!

The mystery lingered until 1983, when fossils were discovered in 350 million year old sediments

from Scotland that brilliantly preserved the soft-bodied animals.

And … they were kinda weird, with long eel-like bodies, tail fins, a stiff rod of tissue down

their backs, and giant bulging eyes.

Thanks to these beautiful specimens, we were able to learn that conodont animals were a

kind of fish after all!

The fossils revealed distinctive, zig-zag-shaped muscles, known as myomeres, which are still

present in fish today.

And the rod down its back was a notochord, an early precursor of the vertebral column

seen in vertebrates.

Both those features--myomeres and notochords--are found only in chordates.

And the fossils also revealed that the tiny, tooth-like conodont elements were concentrated

in the animal's mouth -- but also in its throat!

The elements were arranged in a complicated array of blades and points, like some kind

of horror movie monster.

Some experts think these spines and barbs may have been helpful in gripping and slicing

tiny prey.

But others suggest that they were used to filter plankton from the water.

Either way, the picture of these creatures was finally coming into focus!

Like modern lampreys and hagfish, conodonts were jawless fish, and they were one of the

earliest and most successful groups of vertebrates.

And they thrived all over the world throughout the Paleozoic Era, with many species schooling

in the open ocean like modern sardines, while others stayed closer to shore.

Throughout their history, conodonts were affected by several mass extinctions, including the

Great Dying at the end of the Permian Period 252 million years ago.

But it wasn't until the Triassic-Jurassic Extinction about 200 million years ago that

they were finally wiped out.

A quick rise in carbon dioxide caused the climate to warm up, while the acidity, salinity,

and oxygen levels in the oceans all began to change.

Their final extinction brought an end to 300 million years of conodonts' role as a cornerstone

of the world's ocean communities.

Sad, I know.

But their remains ended up being some of the most important fossils of the entire Paleozoic

Era.

They've helped geologists find oil and tell deep time, while allowing paleontologists

to understand a whole new type of animal life.

Thanks to their success and incredible abundance, they're among the most useful fossils in

the world.

Your Body is Acidic. Here is what you NEED to Do - Duration: 3:10.

Noble prize Winner Dr. Otto H Warburg , who discovered the real cause of cancer, has found

that the root cause of cancer is oxygen deficiency.

Oxygen deficiency leads to an acidic state in the human body.

Dr. Warburg also found that cancer cells are anaerobic (do not breathe oxygen) and cannot

survive in the presence of high levels of oxygen, as found in an alkaline state.

All normal cells have an absolute requirement for oxygen, but cancer cells can live without

oxygen – a rule without exception.

Deprive a cell 35% of its oxygen for 48 hours and it may become cancerous."

Our diet plays a vital role in maintaining proper pH levels in the body.

PH balance is the balance of acid and alkaline in all fluids and cells throughout your body.

Your body must balance the blood's pH levels at a slightly alkaline level of 7.365 in order

to survive.

Unfortunately, the typical American diet consists primarily of toxic and acid-forming foods

like processed sugars, refined grains, genetically modified organisms, and etc.

This leads to unhealthy acidic pH.

An imbalanced pH can interrupt cellular activities and functions.

Excessively acidic pH can lead to many serious health problems such as cancer, cardiovascular

disease, diabetes, osteoporosis and heartburn.

If you keep your body in an acidic state for a long period of time, it can drastically

accelerate aging.

Robert O. Young in The pH Miracle, says, that most health problems arise from being acidic.

This is because parasites, bad bacteria, viruses, and candida overgrowth thrive in acidic environments.

But an alkaline environment neutralizes bacteria and other pathogens.

Therefore, maintaining pH balance is one of the important tools to optimizing your health.

Home remedies for acidity Ingridients

1/3 tsp. baking soda

2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice or organic apple cider vinegar

Method

Mix everything together.

The acid/base combination will immediately begin to fizz.

Keep adding baking soda until the fizz stops and then fill the glass with 8 oz. water.

Drink all at once.

This home remedy will help neutralizes the pH and create an alkaline-forming environment

in your body.

It will help with stomach acid and reduce acidosis.

Technical Analysis 101 (Part 1): Candlesticks, Support/Resistance, & Trendlines - Duration: 6:40.

Hey guys, I'm Angelo & welcome back to Crypto Coin Consultants.

Technical analysis is one of the most powerful methods of predicting market price & direction

in the world of cryptocurrency.

This will be the first video in a multi-part series where I'll teach you the basics of

technical analysis.

The key behind this is that they're the BASICS.

There are other alternatives & methods you can use, but my goal with these videos is

to provide just enough information for you to get started to successfully trade.

For those who want more in-depth information, investopedia.com will be your best friend

for this.

With every tool, indicator, or pattern I show you, I'll first introduce the concept, followed

by a live, onscreen demonstration on how to actually apply the concept.

Let's get started!

The first & most common thing you'll see when opening up a graph are green & red bars,

called Japanese candlesticks.

These candlesticks indicate the direction the price moved within a given time period;

so if we wanna look at the 1-day charts, each candlestick represents the price movement

for one entire day.

If we look at the body of a green candlestick (and ignore the lines extending above & below

it), we'll see that the bottom line indicates the price that that coin opened for that day,

while the top line tells us the price the coin closed at that same day.

The lines extending outwards are called "wicks," and indicate both the lowest & highest prices

the coin sold for within that 1-day period.

The only difference between a green candlestick & a red candlestick is that a red candlestick

indicates that the coin's price closed below its opening price; meaning price moved downwards

for that day.

Now let's put this into action.

Looking at Bitcoin's 1-day graph--which you can see I've selected here by clicking

on 1 day--you'll see the prices for the open, high, low, and close represented by

O, H, L, and C, respectively.

Hovering over to January 5th, 2018, we can see that Bitcoin opened at $15,143 dollars

for the day, at some point dropped down to $14,810 and reached as high as $17,200 during

that same day, and finally closed at $16,928.

Three days later on January 8th, 2018, Bitcoin opened at $16,173, reached as high as $16,300,

dropped all the way down to $13,900, and finally closed at just under $15,000.

The next thing I'd like to discuss is what you'll hear referred to as support & resistance.

These are price levels in which the price of a coin is prevented from being pushed further

upwards or downwards.

Support--also referred to as a floor--is the point at which a coin has repeatedly dropped

to a certain price point before being bought up again.

Resistance--also known as a ceiling--is the opposite; the point at which a coin has repeatedly

gone up & touched before being pushed down again.

Keep in mind that support & resistance levels are merely "zones," meaning they act as

a general area in which price is predicted to bounce off, rather than an exact price.

You can use support & resistance levels to your advantage by buying low when a price

reaches an expected support level, then selling it off when it hits its resistance.

One thing to note too is that when price breaks a certain support level, you'll oftentimes

see that same, former support level act as resistance later on down the road, and vice

versa.

Now let's go back to the charts so you can see exactly what I'm talking about.

Looking at Ether's 6-hour chart from mid to late December of 2017, we'll see that

the price of Ether was repeatedly facing resistance around $750.

With the exception of December 18th, 2017, every time it hit resistance, price went back

down until finally on January 1st, 2018 it broke through.

You can also see that that same $750-ceiling later on acted as an important level of support

here, here, and here, in which price moved back up after touching it.

The last concept I'd like to cover in this video is a tool called a trendline.

As its name implies, trendlines show the general trend of a particular coin's price.

A coin's price trend can move in one of three different directions: up, down, or sideways.

You can think of trendlines as sort of dynamic areas of support & resistance, which will

make more sense once we look at the charts.

Again, these are general areas (or zones) of support & resistance, and are difficult

to pin to an exact price.

Some key things to note are that two touches to a trendline form a speculative (or tentative)

trendline, while three touches to a trendline are a confirmed trendline.

A touch is made distinct from another touch when they're separated & spaced out from

one another, rather than clustered together over the course of a smaller time frame.

Thus, bigger time frames (like the 12-hour or 1-day, for example) lead to more valid

trend lines.

The more times price touches a trendline, the stronger or more powerful it's considered

to be.

Longer trendlines are more powerful; meaning the longer the trendline has been intact,

the more likely you are to see this line get respected, and for price to predictably bounce

off it.

But keep in mind that the more powerful the trendline is, the more violent you'll see

price react once it does manage to break that trend line.

Going back to Bitcoin's 1-day chart from May through December of 2017, for example,

we can draw a confirmed ceiling trendline here.

Note that price touched--and at times came close to touching--the trendline more than

three times.

Late October/early November saw price test it & break through, but it was suddenly pulled

back down until it broke through again in mid-November & reacted violently with an almost

200% increase in price over the course of about a month.

Alright guys, that wraps up episode one of my new, multi-part technical analysis series.

Stay tuned for the next video, where I'll be showing you even more TA tools you can

add to your arsenal.

Dr. J. Malon Southerland '65 - Duration: 3:32.

- I was born in a little town in Flora, Illinois

This was 1942, so the war was getting going.

My father was in the oil field business

so therefore, they moved every three months

somewhere, and moved all throughout the midwest

and then back to Texas.

I was involved in high school in ROTC

so that created an interest.

I enjoyed ROTC, I had good success there.

I had a few victories.

And so I had an interest in Texas A&M

I entered with the class of '64

in the fall of '60.

I graduated from high school in '60

I had a wonderful year, enjoyed being on the

Fish Drill Team, and had very few grade points.

- [Narrator] Dr. J. Malon Southerland

class of 1965 graduated from Texas A&M

with a degree in management.

He was a member of Company F2, G3, A3

and was a member of the Fish Drill Team.

After active duty in the United States Army,

he returned to Texas A&M in 1968 as a counselor

in the Commandant's office.

After completion of a Ph.D.

in 1980 in Education Administration,

he became an Assistant to the President of

Texas A&M, and later the Associate Vice President

for Student Services.

In 1986, he served as the Interim Commandant

for the Corp of Cadets.

Dr. Southerland was named Vice President of

Student Affairs in 1993, and served

until his retirement in 2003.

He is a Vice President Emeritus,

and has served on numerous boards,

including Chairman of the Board of the

Greater Texas Foundation, and the

Texas Guaranteed Student Loan Corporation.

Texas A&M University, and the Texas A&M Foundation

named him the namesake of the Southerland

Aggie Leader Scholarships.

Dr. Southerland was named an honorary

member of the Ross Volunteer Company

by the class of 1988, and is a past

Association of Former Students class agent

for the class of 1965.

- The interactions with students

is honestly the only thing that I truly miss

in retirement.

The students came up with the idea after nine eleven

within like a week, before the next home game

to change to red, white and blue t-shirts

throughout the entire stadium.

They actually came to visit with me

and said, "well if this doesn't work,

we're going to have lost some money

will you back us up?"

Well, they didn't lose money

they made a couple hundred thousand

dollars and we sent them to the firemen

in New York City and it's a big easy statement to see.

But individual successes are, they're everywhere.

Persistence and hard work are very significant items

that if you can apply those, you can probably

overcome some shortcomings.

- [Narrator] Ladies and gentlemen,

inducted into the Corp of Cadets Hall of Honor

Dr. J. Malon Southerland, class of 1965

The Most Useful Fossils in the World - Duration: 7:00.

Thanks to CuriosityStream for supporting PBS Digital Studios.

It may not surprise you to learn that some kinds of fossils are more common than others.

Most dinosaurs, for instance, are known from only one or two specimens.

Meanwhile, some trilobite species are known from hundreds or thousands of specimens.

But one of the most abundant kinds of fossils on Earth, numbering in the millions of specimens,

came from something most people have never heard of.

And for decades, their identity was a mystery to paleontologists.

But geologists figured out that these mysterious fossils could basically be used to tell time

in the deep past!

Please allow me to introduce you to the conodonts.

From the time they were first discovered in the 19th century, and right up until the 1980s,

conodonts were only known from isolated hard parts, called conodont elements.

Some of them looked like little fans, or saw blades, or even barbed wire, but most of them

looked like cone-shaped teeth.

So they were given the name conodont, which means "cone tooth."

These elements are all verrry tiny.

Most are under one millimeter, and none greater than five millimeters long.

And for a long time, paleontologists were totally stumped about what animals these things

belonged to, and where on the Tree of Life they belonged.

Some experts thought that, although they look kind of like teeth, their similarities to

teeth are pretty superficial.

But others pointed out that the fossils were made from a mineral called hydroxylapatite.

This is the same mineral that bones and teeth are made from in vertebrates.

So, this led many scientists to think that they were teeth, maybe from some kind of weird,

extinct fish.

But while paleontologists were spending a hundred years or so debating what conodonts

were, geologists were discovering what conodonts could do.

When a species is really abundant, widespread, distinctive, and found in a restricted span

of time, their remains can be used as Index Fossils.

These are fossils that help geologists correlate and date rock layers all over the world.

And conodonts were all of those things -- abundant, widespread, and composed of lots of distinctive

species.

So they turned out to be some of the most important index fossils from the whole Paleozoic

Era.

In fact, many subdivisions of the Paleozoic are actually defined by when certain conodont

species first or last appear.

For instance, you know when the Devonian Period ends and the Carboniferous Period begins,

because that's when you start finding fossils that belong to a species of conodont known

as Siphonodella sulcata.

Likewise, in the Triassic Period, nearly every age is defined by the first appearance of

various conodonts.

The extinction of Metapolygnathus parvus marks the end of the Carnian, for example, while

the start of the Rhaetian is defined by the first appearance of the genus Misikella.

So, geologists are able to use these fossils to basically tell time!

But conodont elements can do more than just that!

They're also, essentially, geological thermometers!

It turns out that conodont elements actually change color when they're heated up.

And no matter what species they belong to, they go through the same range of color changes

at the same temperatures.

Geologists have used these fossils to devise a six-point scale of how they change from

their natural tan color, to brown, then gray, then black, and finally white, as they get

hotter and hotter.

With this scale, called the Conodont Alteration Index, geologists can use the color of a conodont

that they find, to figure out how hot the surrounding rock once was.

And this can be really important in fields like petroleum geology, because it can reveal

whether sediments ever got hot enough for organic hydrocarbons to be converted into

oil and gas.

So conodont elements quickly became one of the handiest tools in the geologist toolkit.

But meanwhile, paleontologists still had no idea what kind of animals conodonts were.

In the 1970s, fossils of some vaguely fish-like creatures were found in Montana that were

thought to be conodont animals.

But further study revealed that the conodont elements found in those fossils were actually

in the animals' guts.

So it turned out that they weren't conodont animals; they were fossils of creatures that

ate conodont animals!

The mystery lingered until 1983, when fossils were discovered in 350 million year old sediments

from Scotland that brilliantly preserved the soft-bodied animals.

And … they were kinda weird, with long eel-like bodies, tail fins, a stiff rod of tissue down

their backs, and giant bulging eyes.

Thanks to these beautiful specimens, we were able to learn that conodont animals were a

kind of fish after all!

The fossils revealed distinctive, zig-zag-shaped muscles, known as myomeres, which are still

present in fish today.

And the rod down its back was a notochord, an early precursor of the vertebral column

seen in vertebrates.

Both those features--myomeres and notochords--are found only in chordates.

And the fossils also revealed that the tiny, tooth-like conodont elements were concentrated

in the animal's mouth -- but also in its throat!

The elements were arranged in a complicated array of blades and points, like some kind

of horror movie monster.

Some experts think these spines and barbs may have been helpful in gripping and slicing

tiny prey.

But others suggest that they were used to filter plankton from the water.

Either way, the picture of these creatures was finally coming into focus!

Like modern lampreys and hagfish, conodonts were jawless fish, and they were one of the

earliest and most successful groups of vertebrates.

And they thrived all over the world throughout the Paleozoic Era, with many species schooling

in the open ocean like modern sardines, while others stayed closer to shore.

Throughout their history, conodonts were affected by several mass extinctions, including the

Great Dying at the end of the Permian Period 252 million years ago.

But it wasn't until the Triassic-Jurassic Extinction about 200 million years ago that

they were finally wiped out.

A quick rise in carbon dioxide caused the climate to warm up, while the acidity, salinity,

and oxygen levels in the oceans all began to change.

Their final extinction brought an end to 300 million years of conodonts' role as a cornerstone

of the world's ocean communities.

Sad, I know.

But their remains ended up being some of the most important fossils of the entire Paleozoic

Era.

They've helped geologists find oil and tell deep time, while allowing paleontologists

to understand a whole new type of animal life.

Thanks to their success and incredible abundance, they're among the most useful fossils in

the world.

An Easter Message from President Dan Martin - Duration: 1:36.

We are coming up to one of the most important and powerful days in the life of Christians:

Easter.

I deeply value pausing at Easter to think of Christ's suffering, death, and resurrection.

C.S. Lewis put it this way: "Death and resurrection are what the story is about."

The resurrection of Jesus is God's emphatic way of saying we have hope, death is not the

end – that in the words of Paul, "Death has been swallowed up in victory."

A friend of mine who is a pastor says that it is Easter that transforms our sorrow into

joy and hope; and our fear into peace and courage.

From SPU's founding and as reflected in our Faith Statement, we are an ecumenical

community of faith, bringing a depth and richness to the life of faith that is not found at

most Christian universities.

At the same time, our Faith Statement identifies our Wesleyan theological heritage – an identity

that clearly expresses this hope can be obtained through life in Christ as he promised

in John 14:19, "Because I live, you will live too."

As we move through Lent and into the Holy Week, it is my prayer that we would all discover

anew, or for the first time, the hope we have in Christ.

May God richly bless you this Easter season.
