Yt News today: Youtube daily report Nov 1 2017

• Who got himself fired for saving a customer's life?

Who lost her job after 10 years just for being attractive?

From dumb employees to terrible bosses, we look at 10 of the dumbest reasons people were

fired from their jobs?

10 – Threatening a Starbucks • A police officer tasked with checking

in on a robbery at Starbucks apparently didn't think one robbery was enough for them.

• Upon responding to the call, the officer demanded free coffee.

• When he was turned down, he may have suggested that the police would take a little longer

to respond to the next call.

• Obviously, the police aren't the mafia, and they're not supposed to ask for protection

money.

So THAT officer was promptly relieved of his badge.

9 – Bathing in the Work Sink • Many of these are going to be someone

doing something totally idiotic, then posting it online for everyone – including their

bosses – to see.

• This one is no different.

A trio of girls at a KFC decided it would be fun to take a picture of themselves taking

a bath together.

• At work.

In the sink.

The dishwashing sink.

• They were let go for health code violations, because a work sink is not a hot tub.

8 – Saving Someone's Life • Juan Canales was working as a waiter in

Fort Lauderdale when he noticed a woman outside getting car jacked by a man with a knife.

• He immediately ran outside, wrestled the man to the ground, and saved the woman from

having her car stolen, or worse.

• Hours later, he was fired.

The restaurant's manager wasn't happy about the publicity, so he fired the heroic

father of three.

• No worries, though.

Canales had job offers pour in after his story got out.

7 – Peeing in the Elevator • This has actually happened more than once.

Elevators, it turns out, are very popular places to urinate.

• In 2007, IRS contractor Michael Hicks was charged with damaging government property,

because he decided he liked relieving himself in the IRS office's freight elevator, rather

than the bathroom.

• In 2004, a sheriff's deputy in Florida was fired for peeing in a public elevator

and also some nearby bushes.

6 – Sexting a 14-Year-Old • Hey, you know what you're really not

supposed to do when you're a teacher at a high school?

• Send nudes to your students.

Under ANY circumstances.

• But that's what Beth Ann Chester did with her 14-year old student.

And then she had sex with him in her car.

• She was fired, and obviously sent to jail, much to the surprise and dismay of her husband.

5 – Casual Racism • Hot tip: If you're working as a bartender

in Chicago, you might have to serve people who look differently from you.

• It's a diverse city full of many different kinds of people.

You should probably try to be okay with that.

• Or you can do what Jessica Elizabeth did.

She posted a string of comments on your Facebook page calling a certain race of people THAT

YOU ARE SERVING things like, "dirty, ignorant, apes, animals, and not fully developed."

That's on top of the standard racial slurs.

• Now she's fired, AND everybody knows she's an unapologetic racist.

4 – Accidentally Killing Someone in a Contest • In 2007, people would do just about anything

to get their hands on a Nintendo Wii.

Knowing this, a radio show in Sacramento, California held a contest called "Hold your

Wee for a Wii."

• The game was simple enough – see who can drink the most water without going to

the bathroom.

• Jennifer Strange finished in second place in the contest, and immediately complained

of not feeling well.

• The hosts of the show joked and made light of the situation, despite the fact that a

registered nurse called in beforehand and warned them that the contestants could die

from water intoxication.

• The next day, Jennifer Strange was found dead in her home.

The cause of death?

You guessed it – water intoxication.

• In response, the show was cancelled, and everybody involved with it was fired – a

total of 10 people.

3 – Sleeping at a Customer's House • Sleeping on the job is one of the most

classic forms of slacking off.

It's not at all unusual to catch a cat nap at a desk, or in a meeting, or wherever else.

• Of course, that's mostly for people who have office jobs.

Cable installers?

They don't have office jobs, and they don't have desks and office chairs to fall asleep

in.

• So if they're going to fall asleep on the job, they'd probably just fall asleep

in the truck, right?

• Well, sometimes.

Other times they might just crash wherever they end up.

Like the couch of the person they're installing cable for.

• There are actually multiple documented cases of this, because cable installers are

usually overworked and tired.

But falling asleep on a customer's couch will get you both fired and made fun of on

the internet.

2 – Forgetting About Ash Wednesday • Niklaus Leuenberger was in charge of the

New York Palace Hotel, a 55-story luxury apartment for the super-rich.

• That is, until he forgot – or just didn't care – that it was Ash Wednesday.

• Upon seeing one of his Catholic employees observing the religious holiday, Leuenberger

eloquently told him to "wipe that fucking shit off your face."

• His boss flew all the way from London to fire him in person for that one.

1 – Being Too Hot • Melissa Nelson had a good job as a dental

assistant, and she was good at it.

• In fact, her employee record was basically spotless.

She was punctual, professional, skilled, basically a model employee in every way.

• So why did she end up fired?

• Well, James Knight, the dentist she worked for, just found it too difficult to be around

her and not have sex with her.

• Of course, Melissa didn't WANT to have sex with her boss.

She just showed up to work and brushed off some light sexual harassment, and did her

job.

• But that wasn't good enough.

Knight literally fired his assistant for being too attractive.

After 10 years of working together.

And Iowa courts deemed that totally okay.

The Story Of Alpina | Power & Style - Ep.19 - Duration: 21:30.

So after tons of requests the Story of Alpina is finally here.

Alpina is a very unique tuner, especially compared to other German tuner's.

Differently from AMG and Brabus or G power which would built crazy cars with crazy power,

Alpina has always been more simple, with combining beauty, luxury and power in one perfect package.

Plus their racing history, is very successful, not only compared to other tuner but also

compared to car manufactures.

So guys, with any further ado, welcome back to another video and here is the story of

Alpina.

Before I start I wanted to say that I'm going to make 3 videos about Alpina, the first

video would be their story, the second video about all their cars and the final video would

for their racing history.

I'm doing this thing because otherwise the video would become very complicated.

So back to the video now.

Alpina the brand originally was formed by Dr. Rudolf Bovensiepen in 1949.

But They made office machines and mostly typewriters, instant of powerful luxurious car's.

And they were quite successful.

But everything would change in the early 60s, when they tried some new business ventures,

but thing didn't go as they planned and the Alpina brand was bought out in 1 January 1965.

This was the story of the Alpina name.

The story of Alpina the BMW tuner begins in 1 September 1936 in the town of Chemnitz,

when Burkard Bovensiepen was born.

After finishing the school in Oberstdorf, he decided to study for engineering and economic

in Munich.

In 1957 Burkard started a small business by becoming a small shareholder on a company

which exported VW Beetles to the USA.

But everything changed probably in the early 60s.

Burkard had bought a Fiat 1500, but he wasn't happy with the performance.

So he brought the car to a friend for a tune-up.

He and his friend added a Weber carburetor, a more aggressive crankshaft and opened up

the muffler.

So they managed to gain 8hp, and the Fiat ended up with 75hp.

But he decided to give up with Fiat's after his 1500 broke its crankshaft in Italy.

So because of this he decided to open his tuning shop and decide to work with BMW which

he had always been interested on, but also because BMW had just presented the BMW 1500.

The BMW 1500 was perfect for his new business since it offered perfect handling and performance

thanks to its 1499cc engine with 78hp, which was perfect for this car.

Burkard started experimenting with the car, he replaced the Solex carburetors, with a

pair of Weber's and modified the manifolding of his own design.

These changes increased the power to 88hp, which brought an instant transformation to

the car performance.

The conversion worked perfectly.

So Burkard started to sell these conversions as kits.

After getting permission from BMW and well-received article on German car magazine Auto, Motor

Und Sport in October 1963, Burkard started getting his first sales.

One of the things that really helped him out was his deal with BMW when his conversions

would be covered by the standard factory warranties.

Customer's started demanding additional performance and handling upgrades.

So, Bovensiepen started developing a new suspension system to improve the handling of the 1500

also he developed modified cylinder heads and started selling different aftermarket

parts, like steering wheels and seats.

By the mid 60s the demand for Burkard products was at such that Burkard couldn't cope on

his own.

And so, in 1 January 1965 he established Alpina Burkard Bovensiepe.

Since he liked the Alpina name he decided to pay a 3% license fee to the new owner of

the typewriter company.

And now he employed 8 workers.

By the mid 60s BMW models had started sharing parts with each other, so Burkard started

adapting his 1500 kits for the newly released 2000.

Also, around this time he was building fully converted cars to customer's specs, since

until then he was selling only kits which you could install by yourself.

In 1967 Alpina introduced her iconic logo, a heraldic type emblem with a crankshaft on

the blue field and a pair of intake trumpets on the red field.

In 1968 Alpina started working with the new BMW straight-6 engine for the e3 and e9.

By the late 60s the variety of the Alpina packages was at such that they had to distinguish

one model from another so they started using their known Alphanumeric codes for the names.

This system was very simple.

The letter A was used for the 4-cylinder M10 engine and the letter B for the 6-cylinder

M30 engine.

They also started using the letter C for the M20 straight-6 engine.

The first Alpina version of the engine would take the number 1, the second the number 2

and so on.

The letter S was used when the engine was developed into a second stage.

This system continued until 1978, when Alpina started using the engine capacity to distinguish

one model from another.

But this time they stopped using the letter A, and after many clients complaints they

also stopped using the letter C. So the C2 2.7 Was renamed B3 2.7.

The system changed again during the 90s.

But his time they introduced a very wired system.

For example.

B3 was the 6-cylinder 3-series B8 was the V8 3-series

B10 was the petrol 5-series Now they had also tuned diesel engines so

they started using the letter D and D10 was the diesel 5-series

And B12 was the V12 powered cars.

Also since BMW had presented the new Z series, Alpina started using the Roadster name for

the new convertibles.

In 2005 Alpina changed the system again, and this time they used a very simple one.

After the letter B would come the series model, for example the B3 was the 3-series and the

B7 was the 7-series and for the only SUV that they have built the X3 they use the DX3 name.

Back to the story now.

1968 was also very important for Alpina because was the year when they created their racing

team to compete in the European Touring Car Championship.

Like I said I'm going to make a whole video about their racing history but I'm going to

talk briefly on this video.

From 1968 to 1977 Alpina raced with a number of different car's 1600Ti different 2002s

and a CSL.

Their cars were very successful.

In 1970, they won the European Touring Championship, German hill climb different rally and track

championships and the 24h of SPA.

BMW, impressed by the work of Alpina, put them in charge of their racing division.

And they continued wining.

They won the 71, 73 European Championship with a CSL and the 77 Championship with a

3.5 CSL.

Alpina withdrew from the racing competitions in 1977 and returned in the late 80s, when

they raced for one year with an e30.

They left the racing world again and returned only after 20 years in 2009 with e63.

By 1969 Alpina was growing rapidly and they were making more than 4DM million.

Because of the high demand, Alpina moved from the old typewriter factory to the small Bavarian

village of Buchloe.

Also, Burkard managed to buy the rights to use the Alpina name from the typewriter factory.

The 70s would bring major changes for Alpina.

In 1970 Alpina started selling parts and kits in UK.

Because of the legislation and the costs, Alpina couldn't built RHD cars in Buchloe,

so they started working with different dealers to do the work for them.

This system continued until 1993 when Alpina had the capacity to built RHD cars back in

Germany.

The racing victories helped them a lot during the early 70s, with boosting the brand reputation.

By 1975 Alpina had started selling kits and parts in Switzerland and had established its

own network of dealerships, through BMW outlets.

In 1976, they started selling kits in US.

The history of Alpina in US is very interesting.

The first Alpina tuned BMW in America was a 1602, a customer had bought the car in America

and had send the car back in Germany to Alpina to tune the car for him.

But officially Alpina's, were available in America only by 1976.

An American company called Hardy and Beck started importing Alpina parts and kits for

the e21 320i.

One year later two more companies also started selling Alpina parts, Dietel Enterprise and

Miller and Norbuen.

The biggest problem that Alpina faced in America were all the regulations that the American

market had.

Since the Alpina parts were built for the Euro spec BMW, the American Alpinas would

perform purely.

Also, the bodykits would not fit to the American BMWs.

So importers would only use Alpina suspension.

This let to feuds between Alpina and the importers, since they would use also different parts

beside the Alpina ones but they mark the cars as Alpina's with Alpina striping and brading.

Alpina stopped working with Hardy and Beck in 1979 and Dietel Enterprise faded away in

the mid 80s.

Miller and Norburn continued to sell Alpina parts for some times but they also went bankrupt

in the late 80s.

By the 90s Alpinas have been only available in America only in some BMW dealerships.

So this is the number one reason why you don't see many Alpina's in America.

Back to 1977 now, when Alpina had grown even more and now had around 80 employs.

In 1978 Burkard took a very important decision, when he decided to stop selling aftermarket

kits and parts and instead he decided to be focused only on building completely tuned

cars.

These changes were made because most of the Alpina sales were kits sale.

For example in 1977 Alpina sold around 300 cars, but in the same time they sold 700 kits.

And the problem with this was that some of these kits were put together by the buyers

them self, with zero quality control and in all sort of ways.

But these cars still carried the Alpina badge and these badly built cars could damage the

reputation of Alpina.

So everything was done to save the name of the brand.

Also, the same year Bovenspien agreed with BMW to get cars directly from the production

line.

And in 1979 Alpina started selling cars in Japan which would become one of their biggest

markets.

The 80s would be very important for Alpina, since a lot of changes happened and some of

their best cars came in the 80s.

Due to the oil crisis of the 70s, Alpina worked on building more fuel efficient cars without

compromising the performance.

In 1981 an Alpina tuned 318i won its class economy run race organized by Auto, Motor

Und Sport.

This was one of the main things that set them apart from the other tuners of the decade.

In the early 80s Bovensiepen with the help of BMW, started working to get recognized

as an independent car manufacture.

This was a very important step for Alpina, because this way they would lose the kit builder

reputation.

But being a car manufacture had its own responsibilities, because now they had to meet the emission

regulation.

So by 1983 Alpina is recognized as a car manufacture by the German Federal Motor Transport Authority.

Since then Alpina's have had their own VIN number.

The earlier examples are the coolest ones since they would just struck out the BMW VIN

number and would put their own.

Like I mentioned before he dint had the capacity to built RHD cars, so they struck a deal with

a UK based BMW dealer called Sytner to build the cars for them.

This lead to some exclusive UK only models.

This deal continued until 1993 when everything returned in Buchloe.

By the mid 80s the west German Government had started enforcing the use of catalytic

converters.

Originally the law was planned to get enforced by January 1986, but after the protest of

the German motor industry the deadline was moved to 1 January 1988 for the cars with

a displacement of larger than 2 liters and yo 1 January 1989 for the cars with smaller

displacement.

This law was a big problem for Alpina, since the catalytic back then were notorious for

restricting the power and the torque outputs of the engines.

So they started working with EMITEC to solve the problem.

EMITEC catalytic depended on metal substrates, which made them more expensive, but in the

same time made them more efficient compared to the ceramic-based catalytic.

Alpina finally presented their first catalytic car in 1985 and all their catalytic cars were

known as KAT.

Alpina worked hard to make the KATs more popular with making them more powerful than their

non catalytic versions.

By the late 80s all the Alpina's were built with catalytic converters.

Another way that Alpina promoted their catalytic technology was by entering an e30 in Group

A, and soon, after them all the other teams started using catalytic converters.

For their 25 birthday, in 1989 Alpina introduced probably their most known car the B10-biTurbo.

Like I said I'm not going to talk about the specs on this video.

The bi-turbo was the fastest Alpina for a number of years and also one of the fastest

sedans in the world.

The biggest for Alpina came in the 90s and the number reason for this was the Motorsport.

The BMW performance division was competing against Alpina now, so they had to make even

more special cars.

So they started making better and more refined cars and offering a better overall package.

The interior started getting better and becoming more luxurious with more leather and wood.

Until then Alpina had used most of the time stock BMW gearboxes, or some time they would

use Getrag gearboxes.

But since in the early 90s the electronic gearshifters were popular in F1, Apina decided

to try and developed a similar system for their cars.

Introduced in 1992, the system simply provided the 6 speed manual BMW gearbox with an automatic

electronic clutch.

But this system was short-lived, since more manufactures including BMW had started using

automatic transmissions.

So one year later in 1993 Alpina introduced Switch-tronic which offered fingertip manual

control together with the option of the standard of the automatic gearbox.

By the late 90s Alpina was trying new technologies to make their cars more fuel efficient.

In 1995 was introduced the Super-KAT.

This new catalytic converter was electrically heated and was packed on the top of the range

B12 5.7 E KAT.

Since BMW had developed new much more powerful and more fuel efficient diesel engines, Alpina,

started working to make them even better.

So in 1999 they introduced the D10 bi-turbo based on the e34 5-series.

In 2000, they started focusing on using superchargers in order to gain more power.

So in 2003 came the first supercharged Alpina, the B7 E65 and two years later came the B5s

based on the e60 when they replaced the 5l V10 with a 4.4l supercharged.

In 2009, 20 years later after their last race, they returned to the racing world with the

B6 GT3.

But with no success.

2 years later they managed to went the German Gt championship with a B6 GT3 EVO.

In 2015 Alpina celebrated her 50th anniversary with the B5 and B6 EDITION 50.

Today Alpina is stronger than ever.

In 2014, they managed to sell more than 1700 cars.

A record for the company and also have managed to reach the American market with more than

400 cars in a year.

Also, they partnership with BMW is at is best.

And the car to prove this is the X5 4.6iS, when BMW borrowed the Alpina's 4.6 V8 engine

from the e39 B10 V8.

Also, Andy Bovensiepen son of Burkard worked for BMW in the early 2000, until 2002 when

he returned to Buchloe.

Alpina's now gets early access to new BMW models.

So guy thank you for watching, hope you liked the video and see you next time.

Haters | Young Adulthood Series | Spoken Word Poetry | By: Poetic Daisy - Duration: 1:28.

Haters

I wish someone told me that the haters never leave

You think you'd be able to breathe After high school, but there's always someone

with envy You may not form enemies

But if you strive for greatness, you'll be sure to find a hater

Someone who feels what you've accomplished is greater

Than them, but they can't let you enjoy your win

There will always be people so insecure within That they want to tear you down

Don't convince yourself that they won't be around

When you get older Wish someone told me that success is in the

eye of the beholder And when they behold your success with hate

They stop their own self from being great Because their mental state

Is so focused on your fate That they can't keep straight

The things going on in their own life They hold the knife

To their own network, burn the bridge that is their own

When all that needed to be shown Was love, support, and mutual respect

Wish someone reminded me to take time to reflect To be sure that I'm not a hater toward someone

else Wish someone told me being a hater is bad

for your health So much negative energy

But also wish I was reminded that positivity Always wins

And in the end They will pay

Maybe not today Or tomorrow, but their time will soon come

When everyone Sees them for the hater they really are.

The End.

Carling Pub Quiz 1998! [Review] | Nostalgia Nerd - Duration: 4:39.

If you're anything like me, then at some point in your life, you've drank heavily.

Maybe you still do, but I'm not here to judge.

But I will talk about some positives and negatives.

Negatives are excruciating hangovers, dehydration and an absence of cash.

But on the positive side, sometimes you'd wake up next to....

SOME FREE Software, such as Carling Pub Quiz.

That's right, during the late 90s and early 00's there was somewhat of an explosion in

the free things offered in pubs category.

Whether it's free hats, squeezy stress toys or even audio CD's.

There was always some form of branded marketing being dished out to drunken punters.

The Carling Pub Quiz arrived when Multimedia was the hot thing.

Just imagine having the fun of the pub quiz machine in your very own home.

Yeah, it's not quite the same is it?

Gathering your mates around your Windows 98 machine and booting up a half arsed implementation

of a pub favourite.

But let's dive in anyway.

"Now you can challenge yourself with traditional pub quiz questions on your PC at home.

With over 7,000 questions covering entertainment, general knowledge, etc, etc.

You can challenge up to 3 friends to an on-screen buzz-in quiz or for larger events create and

print out your own traditional quiz sheets.

Alrighty then.

Well, installation is pretty quick, which you'd expect given this CD only contains 6MB

of files.

Under the GSP menu we find Carling Pub Quiz tucked away.

GSP being the company behind this and numerous other budget multimedia titles of the time.

At this point if you're stuck, you can dive straight into the "Help" section, which opens

up a standard Help file.

Here we can find out how to Answer Questions among other gems of knowledge.

Starting the quiz presents you with a list of question collections, along with player

options and a timer function if desired.

Multi play can be achieved through taking turns via.

a buzzer with a nominated key, or a combination of the two.

The buzzer, and in fact, sound effects through-out are a little sporadic.

Sometimes they work.

Othertimes, no tomato.

Plus you might as well buzz in for every question as early as possible, as there's no penalty

for doing so, and it blocks your friends from having a chance.

But if you're playing with 1 person, which is more than possible after your friends all

leave, then you just answer question after question after question until either the timer

or the questions run out.

There's no multiple choice as you'd usually expect with this type of game.

Instead you have to type the answer, although there is some lee-way in how you answer.

If your response doesn't match exactly, then you'll usually be asked if it's close enough,

requiring honesty.

Plus the algorithm doesn't work all the time, sometimes completely marking down answers

which are correct to all intents and purposes.

You can see this is firmly based in the late 90s with some of these questions, whilst others

are of course, timeless.

The idea is to fill up your bar, or glass, whatever that represents by getting correct

answers, and at the end we're presented with nice chart to indicate the losers and winner,

if there is indeed a winner at all from playing this game.

This is late 90s CD-ROM software at it's very worst and also because of that very reason,

it's very finest.

Which is why it's marvelous, and worth venturing into - for me at least - if only to remember

how awful free gifts from the pub truly were.

JUST IN: Starbucks Caves To Trump's Common Sense Demands, Ends Year Long War - Duration: 1:40.

Starbucks Caves To Trump's Common Sense Demands, Ends Year Long War.

Starbucks just caved to President Trump and all that is left is for the NFL kneelers to

get wise and come to their senses and it will be a clean sweep for President Trump.

Trump bashed Starbucks for refusing to celebrate Christmas among other transgressions.

But the Christmas one really annoyed Trump, and with good reason.

They refused to say the word Christmas or even show any Christmas scenes on their ubiquitous

coffee cops.

They tried some happy holiday BS and most people were simply annoyed.

That our culture has devolved to the point that saying or showing Christmas was a bad

thing.

Thank God for President Trump.

Because he – in his own brilliant way – showed America how stupid we had become and how we

were arguing about things that simply do not matter.

Honor the flag, celebrate Christmas – what is so hard or wrong about that?

Most Americans agreed and now finally Starbucks has caved and agreed with Trump.

And it is about time.

For Starbucks just released their new Christmas cups and to the shock of everyone the cups

have Christmas trees and celebrate Christmas.

According to Mashable, after years of not recognizing Christmas "the 2017 cups feature

a Christmas tree, doves, ornaments, presents, and holiday cards."

Look, the reason Trump keeps winning is not that he is better at the game than all the

rest, which he is, but that he is right and they are wrong.

What do you think about this?

Yeah, what kind are you thinking?

I don't know, man. I like -- I like big dogs.

But, like, Manhattan doesn't really work.

What? Isn't there, like, a dog that looks like a wolf

or a wolf that's a wolf dog? Oh, Mal-- Yeah, yes. It's in here.

She's the laziest dog you'll ever meet.

-This dog is awesome. -That's the wolf.

-How sexy is this dog? -I mean...

Look at this sex machine right here.

A Closer Look At The First 'Alien' Asteroid Passing Earth - Duration: 3:48.

Hi, I'm Heathcliff and this is Lions Ground.

I hope you have a fantastic day.

Liverpool John Moores University has detected a passing flying asteroid using the telescope

in the Canary Islands, actually it already passed Earth, the asteroid was first discovered

on October 18th with the PAN-STARRS telescope or the Haleakala Observatory in Hawaii, the

piece of stone swung past our sun and passed us around 26 October at a speed of 91.8 km

/ h or 57 miles per hour.

Where does this come from?

Researchers suspect that the asteroid came from the star Vega, the brightest star in

the constellation of Lyra.

Derived from Lyre, yep, referred to in the 1825 star map at the bottom as a music instrument

(based around the character of Orpheus, a famed musician with such extraordinary talent).

Lyra is visible in both the Northern and Southern hemispheres.

Northern hemisphere the constellation can be seen from April to December.

Southern hemisphere Lyra can be viewed low on the northern horizon in the winter months.

If the asteroid is from Lyra it is not certain because it is extremely difficult to tell

where an asteroid comes from, in this situation.

The official name is A / 2017 U1, and it's not a cliché gray giant stone but, in fact,

NASA astronomer Joseph Masiero says is actually red.

Comets fall into two categories, namely the periodic comets that fly on a regular basis

along the sun (like Halley comet) and comets that do hundreds or thousands of millions

of years around a the sun.

In addition, astronomers look at the eccentricity of the circuit.

That is the extent to which an orbit differs from a circle.

A circular circuit that is exactly circular has an eccentricity of 0.

A circular path with an eccentricity of 1 is a parabola.

Halley has an eccentricity of 0.967 and is thus located between a circle and a parabola.

However, the orbit of C / 2017 U1 has an eccentricity of 1.2, making it a hyperbola.

This means that the object comes from outside the solar system.

For more info about this discover.

Thank you for watching.

I'll see in the next video.

Carling Pub Quiz 1998! [Review] | Nostalgia Nerd - Duration: 4:39.

If you're anything like me, then at some point in your life, you've drank heavily.

Maybe you still do, but I'm not here to judge.

But I will talk about some positives and negatives.

Negatives are excruciating hangovers, dehydration and an absence of cash.

But on the positive side, sometimes you'd wake up next to....

SOME FREE Software, such as Carling Pub Quiz.

That's right, during the late 90s and early 00's there was somewhat of an explosion in

the free things offered in pubs category.

Whether it's free hats, squeezy stress toys or even audio CD's.

There was always some form of branded marketing being dished out to drunken punters.

The Carling Pub Quiz arrived when Multimedia was the hot thing.

Just imagine having the fun of the pub quiz machine in your very own home.

Yeah, it's not quite the same is it?

Gathering your mates around your Windows 98 machine and booting up a half arsed implementation

of a pub favourite.

But let's dive in anyway.

"Now you can challenge yourself with traditional pub quiz questions on your PC at home.

With over 7,000 questions covering entertainment, general knowledge, etc, etc.

You can challenge up to 3 friends to an on-screen buzz-in quiz or for larger events create and

print out your own traditional quiz sheets.

Alrighty then.

Well, installation is pretty quick, which you'd expect given this CD only contains 6MB

of files.

Under the GSP menu we find Carling Pub Quiz tucked away.

GSP being the company behind this and numerous other budget multimedia titles of the time.

At this point if you're stuck, you can dive straight into the "Help" section, which opens

up a standard Help file.

Here we can find out how to Answer Questions among other gems of knowledge.

Starting the quiz presents you with a list of question collections, along with player

options and a timer function if desired.

Multi play can be achieved through taking turns via.

a buzzer with a nominated key, or a combination of the two.

The buzzer, and in fact, sound effects through-out are a little sporadic.

Sometimes they work.

Othertimes, no tomato.

Plus you might as well buzz in for every question as early as possible, as there's no penalty

for doing so, and it blocks your friends from having a chance.

But if you're playing with 1 person, which is more than possible after your friends all

leave, then you just answer question after question after question until either the timer

or the questions run out.

There's no multiple choice as you'd usually expect with this type of game.

Instead you have to type the answer, although there is some lee-way in how you answer.

If your response doesn't match exactly, then you'll usually be asked if it's close enough,

requiring honesty.

Plus the algorithm doesn't work all the time, sometimes completely marking down answers

which are correct to all intents and purposes.

You can see this is firmly based in the late 90s with some of these questions, whilst others

are of course, timeless.

The idea is to fill up your bar, or glass, whatever that represents by getting correct

answers, and at the end we're presented with nice chart to indicate the losers and winner,

if there is indeed a winner at all from playing this game.

This is late 90s CD-ROM software at it's very worst and also because of that very reason,

it's very finest.

Which is why it's marvelous, and worth venturing into - for me at least - if only to remember

how awful free gifts from the pub truly were.

Representing Vectors in Rectangular and Polar Form - Nerdstudy Physics - Duration: 7:36.

In this video, we're going to learn how to represents vectors in the Rectangular and

Polar form.

So, let's get straight to it!

Alright, to start off, I want to remind you of what vectors are: mathematical quantities

that involve both magnitude and direction.

A good example of a vector quantity is something like "the grocery store is one kilometer

east of here".

As we can see, this involves the distance, which is the magnitude, as well as the direction.

If this isn't familiar to you, we encourage you to check out our "Introduction to Vectors"

lesson first before moving on with this one.

Alright, so let's get a little bit more abstract.

Say we draw some arrows like this.

Now couldn't we consider these to be vectors too?

They have magnitudes - represented by their lengths - and they point in certain directions.

So yes, they are in fact vectors!

Actually, arrows are a really good way to represent vectors geometrically.

If we wanted to represent wind speed and direction, for example, we could draw an arrow pointing

in the direction of the wind.

We could draw it longer if the wind is stronger and shorter if the wind is lighter.

But we can get even more abstract than that.

Let's set up some coordinate axes, and draw a random arrow somewhere.

Now let's put the tail of the arrow where the axes intersect, also known as the origin.

See how the tip of the arrow ends at a certain point?

That point can be described by coordinates, right?

So couldn't we represent the arrow itself by the coordinates of that point?

Yes, we can!

In fact, we can represent any vector by listing its coordinates!

It works the other way, too.

For any set of coordinates, say (4,2), we can draw an arrow that ends at that point.

So vectors and coordinates on a plot actually correspond to each other.

When a vector is represented by its coordinates, we call that its rectangular representation

or rectangular form.

By the way, this works in 3 dimensions, too!

On a side note, what about the coordinates (0,0)?

We can't really draw an arrow from a point to itself.

Nonetheless, (0,0) is still considered a vector as well.

It has zero length and an undefined direction.

In mathematics, we call this the zero vector.

Now, in two dimensions, we can represent vectors in another way.

Instead of giving its coordinates, we could specify its magnitude and its angle from a

given axis.

We usually choose the positive 'x' axis and measure angles counterclockwise from it,

like this.

So an arrow with length 3 and angle 30 degrees would look like this.

When we represent a vector with a magnitude and an angle, we call that its polar representation

or Polar Form.

Some people write a vector in polar notation like this, with an angle sign preceding the

angle.

But others often write it in a list, which looks very similar to the rectangular representation,

so be careful!

Alright, before we move on, let's test ourselves with an example.

Which one of these arrows corresponds to a vector with a magnitude of 5 and an angle

of 120 degrees?

Well, the answer is 'b'.

And how do we know this?

First of all, 120 degrees puts the vector in the second quadrant, which immediately

eliminates the options 'a' and 'd'.

And secondly, between these two, does 'c' look like it has a magnitude of 5?

Of course not, it looks more like its magnitude is 1.

Therefore, that leaves us 'b' as our final answer!

Awesome!

So let's move right along.

So, you might be wondering, is it possible to convert between a vector's rectangular

and polar representations?

Well certainly!

Let's first look at an example of how to convert a vector from the rectangular form

to the polar form.

Consider the vector (2,2).

We can actually think of this diagram as a right-angled triangle, like so.

In doing so, the magnitude of the vector becomes the length of the hypotenuse of this triangle.

So, we can actually use the Pythagorean theorem to calculate it.

Let's bring up the formula for it, just to refresh our memory.

Plugging in the respectives values gives us the following.

2 squared plus 2 squared equals 8.

And square rooting both sides gives us a final 'c' value or magnitude of square root

of 8 or about 2.83.

As for the angle, we can find that using trigonometry.

Since we know all three sides of this triangle, we can choose any of the trigonometric functions

to solve for the angle.

For instance, the sides opposite to and adjacent to the angle are both 2.

Now, looking at the acronym SOHCAHTOA, we see that tangent is the function that involves

opposite over adjacent!

So the tangent of this angle, which we can just represent as 'theta' for now, is

2 divided by 2, which equals 1.

So, all we need to do is take the inverse of that to give us a final answer of 45 degrees

for this angle.

So now we've found the equivalent of (2,2) in polar form.

The magnitude is root 8, and the angle is 45 degrees.

Awesome!

But what if we want to go the other way around, from the polar representation to the coordinate

representation?

Well, that's a matter of simple trigonometry as well.

In fact, for a vector with magnitude 'r' and angle theta, the 'x' coordinate is

'r' times cosine of theta and the 'y' coordinate is 'r' times sin of theta.

So these are the formulas that give us the conversion!

All we would need to do to solve for them is just plug them into our calculators to

give us the coordinate values.

Pretty simple, right?

Alright, so we've reached the end of this lesson!

We looked at how to represent vectors mathematically, in both rectangular form and in polar form,

and learned how to convert between the two.

So make sure to keep practicing and we will see you in the next lesson!

Beyond the Classroom: Students Tackle Real-World Policy Issues in the Task Force Program - Duration: 4:13.

I think it's just a basic human right

to be able to live in

safety with your family.

My name is Jennifer

and my title is

Refugee AmeriCorps Cultural Orientation Specialist

It's quite long, very official.

Participating in Task Force

directly led me to this position

and then I already

had the background

to be even eligible for this position

because of having done Task Force

so it was definitely completely interconnected.

So over the last 33 years,

Task Force has grown

to cover issues that are important,

not only to our government,

but also to private companies and NGOs

in our region.

It is a senior capstone seminar that

brings together what the students learn

in their classes and what they are doing there

during the time they spend in the Jackson School.

They're given some real-world problems

and they're expected to research this problem and

then develop actionable solutions to the

problem that they work on.

I'm Zain Abed,

I'm a senior at the University of Washington,

here in Seattle, and I'm in

the Jackson School of International Studies

as an undergraduate student.

I participated in a taskforce

on nuclear power in the United States as

well as its future around the world.

Going into college I wanted something

that would both hone my research skills

and prepare me for the professional world.

I really thought Task Force did that

because it's a program that highlights

collaboration, team-building,

management,

and other responsibilities.

And it applies research skills and theory

to real-world issues such as climate change

and international security.

At the conclusion of the ten weeks of Task Force,

we had our evaluation day.

Our evaluator was Dr. John Deutsch who was

the former Deputy Secretary of Defense

and the former director of Central Intelligence

under the Clinton administration.

I really enjoyed that process and

I think I gained a lot from

being grilled by a former head of the CIA.

I aspire to become a lawyer and practice law

and I think energy law is

an interesting practice area that

I haven't been exposed to, so, learning

about the energy industry was something

that I wanted to do.

Instead of having some

theoretical or

speculative discussion about issues, they're required

to think about what's going on in the world

and the solutions that they propose are supposed to be

actionable and realistic.

So today we are going to learn

what to do if you have an emergency.

My Task Forces is on the Syrian refugee crisis and

what the US response should be to that crisis.

Through researching the common

European Asylum system and seeing just

how broken the immigration law system is,

and then through other experiences

I've had here in the US working with

immigrants and refugees,

it just all kind of came together

to make me realize

that changing the immigration law system

is what I'm interested in.

So that's led me to now applying for law school

and that's where I'm going after JFS.

I think Task Force is both

a academic and social experience,

it gave me a lot of ability to grow

as a student and a future professional.

Task force is really an environment

and community for me to jump into something

that I didn't know a lot about,

be expected to produce a professional report,

and be successful at it

with the help and support of my groupmates,

of my instructor,

and the community of the Jackson School.
