Many were gunning for Senator Bernie Sanders to be the democratic nominee of the 45th Presidential
election.
And some argue that had he been the democratic nominee, he had a fighting chance at beating
Donald Trump to become US president.
So one has to wonder?
What if Bernie Sanders was president?
Hello and welcome back to lifeís biggest questions, Iím charlotte dobre.
Lets see if we can get this video to 2 thousand likes.
let us know in the comments below what topics you would like to see next.
If Bernie Sanders was president, he would effectively be Americaís first socialist
leader.
Which would mean a lot of changes.
According to polls, there are not a lot of americans who would want a socialist in the
Whitehouse.
It would have take a lot for america to get to the point where they felt they had to elect
a socialist leader.
Perhaps something happened before the democratic convention that knocked hillary clinton out
of the running.
Maybe there was something incriminating in her emails.
Maybe donald trump was found to be guilty of tax evasion.
Whatever the circumstances, lets get straight to the point and talk about what bernie sanders
would be like as a president.
Bernie sanders has had a long career in politics, and for almost that entire long career he
has been gunning for the same things.
He has always been regarded as a man for the people.† He has also proven himself to be
an experienced politician, who is willing to work with the other side to negotiate and
compromise.
according to experts, foreign policy was not bernieís strong suit.
At the beginning of his term, he would rely heavily on advisors, and take their advice.
He would also be less willing to embark on any military endeavours.
Bernie sanders, as well as many democrats, would likely deal with the problem of student
debt.
He has said that he wants to make college tuition free.
Bernie would likely increase taxes for corporations, and reduce the payroll tax.
He wants to increase the minimum wage to 15 dollars per hour, implement a single-payer
health care system, and end free trade agreements.
He also wants to ensure that all women have access to family planning services.
But unless he had a plan to pay for all of these things, these programs would likely
lead to higher taxes, especially on the wealthy, and an increase in the deficit.
A single payer health care system would cost 1.38 trillion per year.
But as bernie pointed out at the 6th presidential debate, there are many countries on earth
that guarantee healthcare to its citizens.
However, a single payer health care system would also save americans up to 10 trillion
per year.
Creating free tuition at public instutitions would cost an addition 3.5 trillion.
But would also save the public trillions of dollars.
The US economy would not change a great deal if Bernie sanders was president.
The house of representatives would likely remain mostly republican, so much of the things
bernie would like to accomplish might not get done.
He may try to regulate wall street, so the stock market might respond poorly, at least
at first.
When Barack obama was elected in 2008 and 2012, the stock market plunged.
That being said, the stock market also plunged when donald trump was first elected, and quickly
recovered.
Yes, a bernie sanders presidency would push the united states to the left, but its not
like he would turn America into anything that resembles russia or cuba.
Experts say that bernieís words are a little more extreme than his actions.
What do you think Bernie Sanders would be like as president?

Top 10 The Red Death Shocking Facts - Batman - Duration: 5:16.
Shocking Facts About Batman: The Red Death Hey guys!
Welcome back to Top 10 Nerd, I'm Ron McKenzie-Lefurgey.
With the new Metal series bringing us all sorts of awesomeness, I thought it was time
to shine the spotlight on The Red Death, the evil speedster Batman.
Now obviously since we've just had one issue about the guy, I can't go too in-depth about
his inner workings, but I'll just give you a taste to inspire you to go read the Metal
comics for yourself!
Also, in case you are dreadfully naïve, this will have spoilers.
Of course.
Now get ready, it's time for the Top 10 Shocking Facts about Batman: The Red Death.
Number 10: Origins.
As always, let's start with a quick overview of this version of Batman.
This version comes from Earth negative 52, and he actually seems pretty similar to the
Bruce Wayne we know and love.
However, in this universe, after losing his entire family, and all his sidekicks, Bruce
had had enough of this normal guy thing, and decided to take the Flash's powers.
I guess he didn't think The Flash was using the speed force to its full potential, and
in a way, I kinda get it.
Really, considering Bruce is so smart on his own, he probably SHOULD have the speed force.
But how does a normal dude stop a speedster?
Well…
Number 9: Weapon Collector.
When this Batman decided he wanted Flash's speed force, he realized he'd need some
new gadgets.
And where better to look for Anti-Flash weapons than the Flash's rogues gallery?
Batman seems to have visited the old Flash villains like Captain Cold, Mirror Master,
and Heat Wave, and probably killed them.
Then he took their toys and went after The Flash!
Number 8: He used the Flash as a hood ornament.
Yeah.
Apparently the Cosmic Treadmill wasn't ridiculous enough.
After taking Barry out with some of Mr. Freeze's cryostasis formula, he sticks him on the batmobile,
and goes full speed force, until the two become one.
It's almost cute.
Almost.
Number 7: He's not alone in that head.
In order to gain the speed force, Bruce essentially melded with Barry, but he couldn't get rid
of Barry completely.
You can still see him fighting to convince Bruce to do the right thing, using white speech
bubbles to Bruce's red.
Here's hoping Barry can find a way out of there.
Can someone say…
Deadpool crossover?
Eh?
Lemme get my costume…
Number 6: He seems to be having trouble keeping separate from Barry.
While there is a fair bit of Deadpool-ish back-and-forth going on between the two, it's
clear that Red Death Batman is starting to take Barry's feelings into account.
Like here, he first wants to call Barry's family his family.
Or here, where he seems to pause his punch when Barry pleads with him in his head.
I don't know if this bodes well for Barry, that he's taking over, or if it bodes poorly,
because he'll soon be absorbed into The Red Death.
I guess only time will tell.
Number 5: Servant of Barbatos.
As we've learned in the Metal series, it's no accident that a seemingly normal man came
to achieve as much as Bruce Wayne.
It turns out, he was being used as the puppet of Barbatos, maneuvered to be in the perfect
position to release the beast from its prison.
When Barbatos saw Batman way back in the dawn of Man, he decided to use Bats to gain access
to the regular multiverse.
And unfortunately, it seems to be working…
Number 4: He isn't necessarily evil.
This is a pretty interesting member of the batmen.
He hasn't completely lost it, like The Batman Who Laughs, he's just a guy who decided
he needed the Speedforce for the greater good.
For now he seems to be fooled by Barbatos, but his good intentions combined with good
guy Barry rattling around in his head, could mean that he might turn against his fellow
evil Batmen eventually.
Unfortunately, he does a few pretty terrible things that make me worry a bit about him.
Namely…
Number 3: He killed a bunch of people!
This one's a bit weird.
On the one hand, he kills his rogues gallery, which totally makes sense for the guy who
had lost everything and wants to cleanse the world of evil.
Plus it's cool.
But you know what makes less sense?
Killing Wally and Iris of Prime Earth.
This guy's whole motivation for doing this is being upset that he lost his family, so
he goes out and kills Barry's family?
Then tries to kill Barry?
Just because some random evil dude says so?
It's weird.
Hopefully more explanation is coming.
Number 2: Speedybats.
Even though Bruce finally has actual superpowers, he still insists on being bat-themed.
I guess old habits die hard.
As Red Death, Bruce can create Speed Force energy constructs that accelerate the timeframe
of anyone they touch, making people rapidly age and die.
And these constructs are shaped like bats.
Because of course they are.
Since there's no name for them, I hereby dub them Speedybats.
Come at me.
Number 1: He may be based on a short story.
The Masque of the Red Death is a short story by Edgar Allen Poe, and it bears a striking
resemblance to the story of this Batman.
It tells the story of Prince Prospero, who, in an attempt to avoid a plague, hid out in
his abbey with other nobles.
Unfortunately, a dark figure finds its way in, and kills everyone.
This sounds kind of like the story in this comic: One man trying to do what has to be
done to save lives, only to bring about even more death as a result, at the hands of a
mysterious and unseen figure.
This is just speculation on my part, though.
Could be a coincidence.
That's it for today!
Hope you guys enjoyed, if you did please smack that thumbs up button and subscribe to Top
10 Nerd for more videos!
Have any predictions?
Let me know in the comment section down below!
Personally, I think Barry being inside The Red Death will end up playing a pretty important
part in the story, and knowing Flash, it'll probably involve time travel.
Until next time, I'm Ron McKenzie-Lefurgey with Top 10 nerd.
Later nerds!

Super Mario Odyssey Shared Universe Conspiracy - Duration: 10:45.
Dear Viewers, We here at Treesicle accept and acknowledge
that Mario Odyssey came out a month ago and that this video is late.
However....I have a reason for that.
It was so damn good!
I just REAAALLLLYYY wanted to enjoy my time with it and delve into the magic and mystery
of the first traditional 3d Mario game in like: FOREVER.
So deal with it.
Obviously the entire universe is in agreement that Odyssey is awesome.
For the first time in a long time I was glued to the screen for what seemed like days on
end finding everything I could in the game, collecting all the costumes, and getting those
moons!
Oh gawd!
So many moons, and that jingle, it's so satisfying!
It makes me feel so accomplished!
I feel so fulfilled right now!
But we're not here to talk about my raging satisfaction, no.
We're here because along with its stunning visuals and excellent gameplay Mario Odyssey
also came with a hint.
A little, nugget of visual information that could change the way we look at the world
of Mario, NAY the world of Nintendo forever!
Something that brings us closer to finally understanding all the missing aspects of Mario
lore, and Nintendo continuity as a whole!
Yes gentle viewer; it's that big.
So come with me and you'll see a land of mario and wonder as we dig into the world of odyssey
OH GAWD YASSSSS
First off if you haven't played Mario Odyssey yet there will be spoilers, this theory delves
deep into the actual world of the game so if you don't want levels spoiled for you,
this is your warning.
Movin on!
Unlike any Mario game before in this new title we find our favorite "guy who used to be a
plumber" traveling across vast distances to different kingdoms which all exist on the
same planet.
...Alright well maybe that's happened before, but what's really new is the MAP.
- Which is actually more of a satellite view of that planet but I digress…
This simple mechanic is an absolute game changer when it comes to the way we look at the world
of Mario!
Starting out in the cap 3kingdom and working your way across the globe you get a really
good idea of the scope of the world and the different places that exist within it.
Personally, I figured this was some alternate world Mario ended up in.
I thought it was gonna be a big story twist in the end revealing that Mario was asleep
again or something, but no; this globe we trot is Mario's home planet!
- Totally legit canon, and see this?
This little island shaped like a mushroom right here?
That's the Mushroom Kingdom.
That tiny piece of land is where 90% of Mario's adventures have taken place, including Paper
Mario games, Mario RPG, and the Mario Party games.
This also means that this island has just about every type of geographical formation
and climate on it as well.
Weird stuff!
It's only unlocked after beating the main story but it's bonus content is so revolutionary
I was stunned.
Before now there was never any indication of the way the Mushroom Kingdom worked or
even what it was.
Was it a nation?
Was it an entire world?
Was it a dimension??
No one knew!
But now we have definitive proof that it's just a little freakin ISLAND!
This is crazy!
And if you're not convinced whether the Odyssey map is canon; let me direct you to this right
here.
Isle Delphino.
ANNNNND let me remind you that the castle you arrive at in the Mushroom Kingdom is Peach's
castle from Mario 64.
There's also Mario Galaxy's star bits flying around in the Moon Kingdom as well.
This ties ALL of the major 3D Mario games together in Odyssey.
Which is nuts.
See, there is a bigger picture here.
None of these things were done by accident.
Mario Odyssey is riddled with references to every Mario title from his first iteration
to Mario 3D Land.
But even more, and possibly more importantly is one of my favorite, and one of the most
iconic levels in the game: New Donk City.
Metro Kingdom is a region Mario visits about halfway through his adventure and it's amazingly
designed and a great playground.
However, for our purposes it's a giant clue to our puzzle which is the world of Mario.
Obviously New Donk is a reference to Donkey Kong.
Some of you may not know but Mario originally appeared as Jumpman in Donkey Kong; which
was released in arcades in 1981.
Jumpman's name was later retconned to be Mario in future titles.
Since then Mario and Donkey Kong have appeared together in many games but not in any MAIN
titles for either franchise.
This created the assumption that games which featured both characters took place in either
an alternate reality, or simply had no canon place in the world of either character.
However we now know that isn't the case.
Not only does New Donk City exist on the same planet as the Mushroom Kingdom but it doesn't
just reference Donkey Kong as he was known specifically in the Mario franchise.
Throughout the city you will see ads and street signs which showcase the entire DK crew from
Diddy and Dixie to King K. Rool and even side characters like Rambi the Rhino!
Meaning not only does Donkey Kong exist within the official Mario cannon but so does all
of the Donkey Kong Country games as well as Kong Island.
This is significant because Nintendo didn't create the Donkey Kong we know now, they created
his GRANDFATHER who we know as Cranky Kong.
The DK in modern games is Donkey Kong JR's son and he and his crew were created by Rareware,
but it all still exists within the world of Mario.
So this map of the Mario world given to us in Odyssey hides many secrets.
Somewhere on it is a couple of places not specifically showcased; like Isle Delfino.
One of them being Kong Island and another one obviously being Yoshi's Island: the setting
for Super Mario World.
But what if there were more?
What if the map and game design are subtle attempts to hint towards a much larger picture
regarding the Nintendo universe?
I mean, why officially tie Mario and Donkey Kong back together now?
There has to be a point to it - other than nostalgia pandering.
Well, let's take a look at a few franchises we took as spin offs and non-canon: specifically
Mario Kart and Super Smash Brothers.
Both of these games feature characters and levels from Mario games, notably the Mushroom
Kingdom and Isle Delfino as well as the Mario Galaxy level in Smash 4, but they also include
something from every other franchise represented in the roster as well.
Mario Kart 8 has courses ranging from Excitebike to the Animal Crossing Village and even Hyrule.
Super Smash Brothers is even more extensive in its character showcase.
Previously this was seen as an obvious use of assets from each game in order to properly
represent all the IP's, but can we still look at it this way?
Our buddy Brad over at Swankybox recently did a video on an old Mario comic featuring
Megaman and Dr. Light, and there's many more comics from that era featuring mashups like
Mario and Link as well.
With little inferences like these, the crossover series' like Mario Kart and Super Smash
Brothers, and now Mario Odyssey directly tying in the RARE DK Universe to the Mario universe,
could Nintendo be working on something HUGE?
I think the answer is yes.
But I want to point out a couple more pieces of evidence.
The first being the ruined kingdom.
While this level is extremely small it gave us something entirely new in the Mario universe:
a realistic looking dragon in a torn down castle.
Lots of people have said it looks like a Dark Souls boss, and while I agree, I'd have to
say because it's Nintendo I would equate it to a Zelda boss... or a Fire Emblem boss.
Which is interesting…
There's also the realistic looking people from New Donk City and all of the drastically
different aesthetics and populations of each kingdom which shows how incredibly diverse
the planet is biologically and geographically, hell there's a whole region made out of food!
So what if, WHAT IF
the world of Odyssey isn't the "Mushroom Kingdom Planet".
What if it was Planet Nintendo.
Think about it, we have the Mario and Donkey Kong universes tied together on a planet which
includes all of the golf courses and sports arenas and racetracks and game lands from
all of the Mario spin-offs.
This leaves ONLY Super Smash Brothers in the ether!
The truly weird Nintendo characters live in space, like Samus and Captain Falcon, as well
as the Star Fox crew.
We know that Kirby lives on Planet Popstar, and the Pokemon are from the Pokemon world,
but what if all these planets and monsters and heroes all existed in the same universe?
What if Kirby comes crashing down on Mario's planet or the space pirates kidnap Peach,
and Mario and Samus have to team up?
How about the more terrestrial characters like the ones from the Zelda and Fire Emblem
series?
Pit, R.O.B.
, Ness, Little Mac, what if all these characters exist on this Nintendo Planet we're just now
getting to see?
Given all the different environments and how none of the kingdoms tie together in any particular
way it's totally conceivable.
But why do this?
Because people love extended universes and mainline crossovers.
Look at the Marvel cinematic universe.
These have been some of the highest grossing films of all time, and certainly the most
consistently high grossing films of the past decade.
People LOVE seeing their favorite characters team up to save the day.
However, if you look at the DC cinematic universe you can't help but see how you have to BUILD
that universe up.
Marvel started small with a select group of well known heroes in individual films which
all did well separately, and then combined them in the Avengers to make one money making
powerhouse film.
DC, well, at least they have Wonder Woman.
Anyway, Nintendo now has the ability to make a canon Mario/Donkey Kong crossover game without
having to have it be a spinoff or alternative universe title.
The company is also working on a Mario movie which can now feature DK without breaking
or creating new canon as well.
Including all their characters they could easily follow Marvel and make a Super Smash
Brothers movie in 5 years if they play their cards right.
For now though we'll have to sit back and see what they do.
Maybe we'll get Mario Odyssey DLC and be able to visit the Hyrule Kingdom, or the Animal
Crossing Kingdom, who knows!
Regardless there's lots to speculate on and figure out regarding this new map!
But what do you think?
Do you think Nintendo is planning on tying all their franchises together into a Nintendo
extended universe?
Or do you think they're absorbing DK and that's it?
Let me know in the comments below!
Personally I hope they combine everything and give us an extensive map of the Nintendo
Planet!
I'd love to know where on the map Giant Land from Mario 3 is!
And remember all the worlds in Mario 3 have different kings, so they must be kingdoms
as well!
Anyway, give the video a like if you liked it, and subscribe if you haven't yet!
But now it's time for me to stop recording and play some more Odyssey, so I'll have
to catch you all next time!
Tootles!

Thoughtful GIFT IDEAS for STUDENTS *Christmas & end of year* WRIGHT IDEAS WITH SUSAN - Duration: 7:35.
welcome to Wright Ideas with Susan I'm down my rumpus room in my happy place
having fun decorating and thinking of Christmas decoration and gift ideas so
today I thought I would spend some time just going through a few ideas to maybe
inspire you I'm sure you have got a lot of good gift ideas to give to your kids
before the Christmas holidays now for us in Australia we begin our summer on
December 1st so we pretty much finish at the end of November our teaching that
means a lot of our gift ideas probably focus more so on Christmas also not all
of them are craft orientated so I'll start with the ones that aren't craft
orientated because I know everybody's not into crafts but these also could be
crafts for kids so remember that as well so let's get started one of the easiest
things to do is just give your kids a lovely little Christmas card and in it
you can put a little bookmark and there are so many great little bookmarks that
you can download from the internet and from Pinterest so that might be an idea
and write a little note I used to write to every single child
and a little note of thanks for the great year that we had and that often is
a great little idea that you can do for your students the other thing that I
have done in the past is... I don't know if you remember or if you had a chance to see my
birthday bag clip but this is a similar sort of idea what I do is I just put
cheap little things inside a Christmas box the kids get to pick something to
take home at the end of the year just as a little gift thanking them for
being such a great class and great kids now the other thing you can do with this
we can play a little game with it - it's called pass the parcel here and what you
do is - you put music on and the kids pass the box around the circle and then when
the music stops they get to look in the box and they get to pick something to
take home. so that's a good little sort of end of the year game and a little
gift idea you can give to your class and another thing that I
would like to do mostly is I like to tie in my gift or my little token gift
into a biblical story or a biblical principle one of my favorite to do at
the end of the year is Psalm 139 now I have done an object lesson on that and
you can have a look at on the Internet and basically after we do that lesson
the kids get to choose one of the shells and take home as a reminder that
God made them special He made them unique and he made them marvelous and so what I do
throughout the year is I collect lots of shells and and that becomes a little
last lesson of the year and also a take-home gift for them and also it's
our summer here so it works out really well now let's get into some of the
crafty ideas now these crafts can be done by the kids
and if you want to know how you just need to check out my gumnut video and
you'll see exactly how to do them there so you can actually do it as an activity
with the kids or if you like just to do it yourself you can do it yourself let
me just show you a new one that I've tried this year and that is I was
walking in my neighborhood the few years ago and I came across a tree that had
all these seed pods at the bottom of it as I collected them and I stored them in
my garage and this year I decided to take them out and decorate them here's some of
the beautiful beautiful designs that I've done and again kids can do this
really easily or you can just do them for the kids themselves so I plan on
tying this into a famous story Christmas story which one do you think yeah the
Wise Men so I might save the Wisemen story for being the last story of the
year and as a take home they get to take home one of these beautiful star
seat pod ornaments basically this is a seed pod you know it's got these really
neat seeds that are in them when they fly out and you may think oh I
don't have gum nut ornaments - you don't have gumnuts, but you know I bet
you have other ones so I've actually been experimenting and I have done a
clip on this parable of the sower and so my idea for this would be to tell the
parable of the sower like the second week before the end of the year and and
do activities with it but one of the activities might be decorating this into
a Christmas ornament and look how cute I've got some of my favorites here this
could be the take home for some of my classes this year to remind them that
you know they've been hearing the word of God
all year long and it's landed in their heart but
is it gonna get taken away the Word of God? or are they gonna do things to grow in
their faith and so this is just a reminder a little ornament that they can
take home. also I have done a different type of seed pod you guys may not
recognize these people in Australia might these are actually Jacaranda seed pods
and they're all over the trees at the moment so I found several of these
because we have Jacarandas in our yard and so what I did is I did the same
thing with the glue and then I found these great little sequin things instead
of making bows which is a lot harder I found these at the shop the other day
and they are really perfect for little Jacaranda seed pods and look at these
great little ornaments that I've made from those I'm having a lot of fun
so those are a few ideas I was thinking about things that are inexpensive if you
are into crafting and into looking for seed pods or shells but also just some
inexpensive little gifts that you can buy at the shop and just basically give
them to the kids and let them know you appreciate having them in your class
this year I know you guys probably have lots of good ideas and things that
you've given the kids at the end of the year before Christmas and if you do I
would love for you to share it in the description below because those people
come here it's great to spur each other on and find out new ideas that we can do
and that's why I'm doing the channel so that we can share our ideas around and
if you like this little idea would you mind giving it a thumbs up that would be
awesome and if you like some more Christmas lesson ideas I have got a
playlist on lots of ideas that I've been adding year after year to that also I've
got a Christmas playlist of good Christmas music you can have a look at
and also I've got a Christmas playlist of good YouTube videos that I found
explaining the stories of Christmas anyway and there we go I'm gonna go back
to putting some finishing touches I thought I might do a little green on the
edges of this one because I did look at this one I put gold on the edge of that
one doesn't that look nice? and so I'll go back to my crafting and I hope you like
this idea and we'll see you next time bye

How to Kill Ghostface | NowThis Nerd - Duration: 10:34.
Hey guys I'm Kya and I wanna know:
Do you like scary movies?
You know I do, and I'm a big fan of Wes Craven's 'Scream.'
Mostly thanks to its star, the crank-calling killer known as Ghostface.
There are certain rules that one must abide by in order to successfully survive a horror movie!
Every Scream movie features a new killer or killers inside the iconic disguise,
And beneath the dollar-store Halloween mask, they're pretty much just normal people.
But they can take one hell of a beating and never stay down for long.
Seven different serial killers wore the costume throughout the Scream films,
but we'll try and find some common ground in our quest to teach you
How to Kill Ghostface
In the brilliant first film of the franchise,
we're introduced to Ghostface in one of the most legendary openings in horror history.
Do you like scary movies?
Uh huh.
What's your favorite scary movie?
Um... I dunno...
He torments Drew Barrymore with movie trivia over the phone before gutting her like a fish.
I'd also like to say, if Ghostface had called me, I would have been fine.
Tell me, Kya, do you know Leatherface's real name in 'Texas Chainsaw Massacre: The Next Generation?'
Nevermind, I'm dead.
And he rips through the rest of Sidney Prescott's friends without too much trouble.
After plenty of stabbing and some garage door gore,
audiences in 1996 were in for a shocking reveal:
In what would become a series tradition, the lone slasher was secretly two psychos in a tag team:
Sidney's boyfriend Billy Loomis and his shaggy friend Stu.
What's the matter, Sidney? You look like you've seen a ghost.
Why are you doing this?
It's all part of the game, Sidney!
It's called 'Guess how I'm gonna die!'
Forget you!
Ruh roh!
Billy blamed Sidney's mother for breaking up his family, and Stu was just an impressionable teen who watched
Too Much TV.
Billy and Stu reveal their plan to get off scot-free as survivors of the massacre.
In order to look authentic, the two take turns stabbing each other in the gut,
Find her, you dipshit, get up!
I can't, Billy, you cut me too deep! I think I'm dying here, man!
Y'all are just the stupidest...
Y'all were so smart, and then just turned stupid.
The wound might have been enough to finish him off, but Stu never even gets a chance to bleed to death.
During a struggle with Sidney, she drops a giant tube TV
playing John Carpenter's 'Halloween' right on his face.
In the words of Wes Craven's other creation:
Welcome to primetime, bitch!
As for Billy, Sydney outwits him by donning the Ghostface outfit herself and stabbing him in the chest.
It's not enough to stop him, but it softens him up for pesky reporter Gale Weathers to
Blow Him Away.
Well, almost.
It wouldn't be a horror movie without one last scare right?
This is the moment when the supposedly dead killer comes back to life for one last scare...
So Sidney shoots him in the head and gets the credit for the final kill.
Rule #2. Always double tap.
The first 'Scream' established a lot of precedents for Ghostface.
Like his signature blade-cleaning gesture,
magic voice-changer,
Suprise, Sidney!
and a level of clumsiness you don't usually see in a slasher.
Seriously, when he's not getting his ass kicked Ghostface is constantly tripping and flopping around.
Despite his two left feet, it's clear that he was just too cool to kill off after one film.
So Wes Craven brought him back for the sequel… Kind of.
'Scream 2' introduced us to the first in a long line of copycats.
After a brutal murder at the premiere of 'Stab,' a movie based on the events of the first 'Scream,'
a new Ghostface hunts Sidney across her college, killing anyone who gets in his path,
including poor Randy, who miraculously survived the first film.
R.I.P., Randy.
This killer is a deranged movie fan named Mickey, but of course he's not acting alone.
The mastermind behind the scenes is Billy's mom, Mrs. Loomis.
She recruits Mickey from a "psycho website" and pays his tuition.
Had to have financing. Tuition's expensive. Deb there, my backer.
Met on the Internet. Psycho websites, classifieds...
In exchange, he helps her get bloody revenge on Sidney for killing her son.
Y'know, besides the haircuts, this is the most dated thing in the movie.
I mean, considering what college costs today, she could have hired a professional hitman for way less.
Anways, Mickey seems like a smart kid.
I definitely agree with him about 'Godfather 2' being superior.
But he really should have watched out for that last minute
Double Cross
Mickey wanted to be caught so he could blame everything on horror movies and bask in the limelight.
Mrs. Loomis was having none of that, so she shoots him in the chest and leaves him for dead.
Mickey... There's not gonna be a trial!
We all know that's a big no-no in 'Scream.'
Mickey gets up for the traditional last scare, but Gale and Sidney fill him with so much lead he literally does a backflip.
As for Mrs. Loomis, she dies with some unwitting help from
Diane Sawyer.
Betcha that Diane Sawyer interview is looking real good right about now.
In the first movie, the murder of Sidney's mother was blamed on a man named Cotton Weary.
Also, who the heck names their kid Cotton?
I'm Cotton Hill, and I killed fifty men!
He was innocent, Billy killed her and framed Cotton for the crime.
But in 'Scream 2,' Cotton is desperate to clear his name and cash in on his fame.
He's on Sidney's ass about an interview with Diane Sawyer, but she just wants to put the whole thing behind her.
All I'm asking is one little freaking Diane Sawyer interview to get my side of the story straight.
Now I don't think I'm being unreasonable in that request, Sidney.
Like, who can blame her? Mom's dead, dad almost died, she almost died, her friends are dead.
Like, c'mon.
[OFFSCREEN] Also I would have definitely held out for Barbara Walters.
I'd hold out for Oprah, man!
Oh yeah. ALWAYS hold out for Oprah.
Later, when Mrs. Loomis has her at knifepoint, Cotton is torn between which one to shoot.
Heh heh... Torn...
Sid finally caves and agrees to the interview,
Consider it done.
which is all Cotton needs.
With dreams of Diane Sawyer dancing in his head, he shoots Mama Loomis and saves Sidney,
who finishes her off with a shot to the head...
Just in case.
'Scream 3' was a historic first for the series:
It's the only movie with a solo Ghostface.
Roman Bridger, the director of the latest shitty 'Stab' sequel, to be precise.
Turns out, he's Sidney's long-lost brother and the secret mastermind of the whole franchise.
Roman Bridger, director... and brother.
He was the one who poisoned Billy Loomis' mind and set him on the path to murder,
But by the third movie, Roman has taken matters into his own hands.
As the ultimate Ghostface, he's got some upgrades,
like a fancy new voice-changer that can impersonate anybody,
Is this Woody?
and a bulletproof vest.
If you're gonna kill people, protect yourself.
Sidney's got the same idea, and fakes her brother out long enough to get the drop on him and
Stab Him in the Heart.
That would be enough to kill any mortal man,
but since it's a 'Scream' movie, he comes back from the dead before the credits roll.
David Arquette's clueless cop Dewey pumps some lead into his chest armor,
before Sidney tells him the obvious and he blows Roman's head off.
Head! Shoot him in the head!
As usual, when slasher movies change the rules and retcon everything into a big conspiracy,
it was time for Ghostface to take a break.
By the time Scream 4 was released eleven years later, the meta-commentary had switched targets.
Instead of old '80s slasher tropes, 'Scream 4' was all about the remake mania that's still sweeping cinema.
Oh my God, I love it. I 've seen it five times and it still gets me every time!
The new 'Ghostface' is Jill Roberts, Sidney's cousin.
She's jealous of Sidney's notoriety and basically wants to become her,
so, with the help of her geeky boyfriend Charlie, the two set out to recreate Ghostface's glory days with a good ol' stabbing spree.
What the heck?!
At the end, Jill and Charlie play the parts of Billy and Stu.
Just like the killers from the first 'Scream,' they agree to stab each other and pretend to be innocent victims.
But Jill doesn't want to share the spotlight, so she turns on Charlie with
A Cut Too Far.
Her plan actually seems to work for a while.
The town of Woodsboro thinks she's a hero, but Jill gets a nasty surprise when she arrives at the hospital.
Sidney is alive, and she stops her cousin with
A Defibrillator to the Brain.
Look, I know it's not the most clever title, but after all these 'How to Kills' I've run out of electricity puns.
Sometimes a defibrillator to the brain is just a defibrillator to the brain.
And sometimes, it's still not enough to kill a psychotic slasher.
In the final jump scare of the 'Scream' movies, Jill attacks Sidney with a shard of glass until she gets put down by a shot to the chest.
Nice one!
'Scream 4' looks like the end of the franchise as far as movies go.
It was the last film Wes Craven directed before he passed away,
and its poor box-office performance means we probably won't see Ghostface on the silver screen for a while.
But on TV, 'Scream' is still going strong.
It's hard for me to think of this killer as Ghostface because, y'know, he's wearing a different mask.
The original design was copyrighted and MTV couldn't work it out, so the killer got a new face, and I'm not really a fan.
Gah, ugh, ooh, eww!
Honestly, the mask from Scary Movie was more unsettling.
And by the way, Doofy lives, so he's technically a better Ghostface than anyone else on this list.
Season 3 of 'Scream' is rebooting with a new cast and a new setting,
but we're gonna be treated to at least one familiar face:
Ghostface, that is.
The classic mask is back, and so is my interest in the series.
The horror genre is always evolving, and I'm sure 'Scream' will too.
Maybe in the future Ghostface will be reinvented as a killer clown,
or a creepy doll that makes crank calls.
Honestly I'm shocked we haven't gotten a gory Michael Bay remake yet.
No matter what he looks like, though,
killing Ghostface isn't really a problem.
Most of the time, a simple bullet will do the trick.
The hard part is finding out who he is, and, y'know, how many people he is.
It also doesn't hurt to watch a shitload of scary movies.
Because if you know the rules, you just might survive.
At least, until the sequel.
Hey guys, thanks for watching! Let us know who you want us to
kill next. Santa Claus? Sith Lords? How about Pinhead? Pick
one, or give us a better idea! And as always please subscribe to NTN.

I went into the Derwent Mouth Lock during its Restoration - Episode 28 - Duration: 6:16.
I've moved down the canal a little bit. I went down through Swarkestone Lock and
on a really nice countryside bit here, very, very quiet. The main reason for it,
even though I had winter mooring up at the top, the towpath was getting really
muddy and I was finding madam with her four feet, rather than just mine, was
trampling mud through the boat and mess and stuff so, I've come up here where
it's nice and dry and it's fine now. It does mean I have to walk across a
certain field to get to the car, but in a weird sort of way, I'm actually closer to
the car than I was at Swarkestone so, there's plus and minuses.
So at this time of year the Canal & River Trust do their winter stoppages.
What that means is they completely stop the traffic going through various parts
of the network and that's purely so that they can do their maintenance. I'm
just walking down the final part of the Trent & Mersey Canal before it goes out
onto the River Trent and it Derwent Lock, they're doing maintenance here. They put
complete stoppages in, so that they can take gates out, replace them, put
different covings in, deal with the cill that's in the little bottom of the lock
chamber, basically all the things that they need to do to keep all the boats
navigating around the system, during the rest of the year. Because most of the
boats are moored up in marinas like this, over the winter months, it gives
them time to do them. The stoppages are advertised on the Canal & River Trust
website months and months and months in advance, so people can plan their
way around the system. For example, I was down on the Coventry Canal and I knew I
wouldn't be able to get up past here, to get up onto the River Soar for example.
So I booked my moorings up at Swarkestone. But it just means that you've got to be
aware of the surroundings and be aware of the stoppages. Derwent Mouth Lock was
built in 1777 and it's the first lock on the Trent & Mersey Canal. I've traveled
through it many times and it's a well-used lock, allowing boats to travel
back and forth from the River Trent, up onto the canal. With all its use, this
winter it's time for a bit of restoration and repair. A number of
wooden beams or to use their technical term 'stanks' are wedged in place at both
ends of the lock, to seal it. However, water does continue to seep past them, so
ash from steam trains is poured into the water and the seeping flow carries the
ash into the gaps, causing it to make a tighter seal.
[Gurgling water]
A number of damaged coping stones have been replaced, with handcrafted
stone and once the chamber could be inspected, brickwork could be repaired.
There was some breaks are actually missing and there were some that were
actually too degraded to be repointed it's a bit of a toss-up, basically you have
to do a lot by eye because you'll look at things in your think, you know, can I
shall I chop that out, shall I leave it. Ultimately in things this age, you could
just turn around and go, the whole lot needs chopping out. At which point, you've
got a new lock. So to keep the historic structure as intact as possible, the
Canal & River Trust need to restore, rather than replace. As the lock is
listed, they're not allowed to use cement. Instead, they need to use sand and lime
to fix the stones and bricks into place. Some damage is only visible once the
lock has been drained. We found that this gate was dragging on the bottom a little bit.
On further examination, we realised that the actual bracket on the top, that sits around there, one side of
it had snapped. It's made out of cast iron and it had snapped and the actual stone itself
it had got a fault in it and it had separated. So it was letting the whole thing move, so that
was a job that we hadn't anticipated. They've dug it out and are waiting for a
one and a half tonne sandstone to be quarried and bought here by boat. The restoration
here is due to take around about six weeks and it's planned to stop on the
12th of December, even though they have had extra work to do.
And the total cost is around about £120,000. With hundreds of locks
scattered across the country, this time of year is jam-packed with work and
they've only got a small window of opportunity before the canal springs to
life again in March. So if you wanted to come and have a look at this lock,
it's open on the 2nd & 3rd of December.
They've got viewings here, the guys and the team that actually are fixing the
lock and preparing it and restoring it, they'll be here. As well as up on the
canal on the Trent & Mersey, they've got horse-drawn boats going up and down
there. So you can see that, of how it used to be in the olden days and now onto
the River Trent and the River Derwent,
they've got river trips to Sawley Marina. I've included a link in the description
below about this weekend's event. If you liked this episode, please do give it a
thumbs up, leave a comment and until next time, see you later.

Balance Is SO Important - Duration: 1:52.
BE WELL BALANCED.
ANY TIME THAT WE'RE OUT OF BALANCE
IN OUR LIFE IN ANY AREA, IT OPENS UP A DOOR
FOR THE ENEMY.
IF YOU DON'T SPEND ENOUGH TIME WITH YOUR FAMILY,
YOU'RE GONE TOO MUCH, YOU'RE NOT TAKING THE RIGHT TIME
TO SOW INTO YOUR RELATIONSHIPS, IT'S GONNA OPEN A DOOR
FOR THE ENEMY AND THERE'S GONNA BE PROBLEMS IN THE FAMILY.
IF YOU ARE TOO SELFISH, IT'S GONNA CAUSE PROBLEMS.
BUT IF YOU NEVER SPEND ENOUGH TIME ON YOURSELF,
YOU DON'T TAKE CARE OF YOURSELF, THAT'S GONNA CAUSE PROBLEMS.
YOU CAN LOOK AT A THOUSAND DIFFERENT AREAS
AND SEE HOW IMPORTANT BALANCE IS.
AND WE HEAR A LOT ABOUT EATING BALANCED MEALS
SO EVEN FROM THAT GOD IS SHOWING US
THAT WE NEED ENOUGH PROTEIN, WE NEED ENOUGH CARBS,
WE NEED ENOUGH OF THIS, WE NEED ENOUGH OF THAT.
WE NEED TO HAVE BALANCE IN OUR LIVES AND YET
I THINK THAT MOST OF US REALIZE THAT AMERICANS IN PARTICULARLY
AND PROBABLY OTHER CULTURES IN THE WESTERN WORLD,
WE REALLY ARE BAD AT GETTING OUT OF BALANCE, AMEN?
FOR EXAMPLE, WAY TOO MANY PEOPLE WORK WAY TOO MUCH
AND THEY DON'T REST ENOUGH.
AND THEN THERE IS A LOT OF PEOPLE
WHO DON'T SLEEP ENOUGH.
WELL, THAT'S GONNA CAUSE YOU PROBLEMS.
AND SO I JUST WANT YOU TO REALIZE THAT IF YOU'RE
OUT OF BALANCE IN ANY AREA IN YOUR LIFE,
THE ENEMY IS GOING TO TAKE ADVANTAGE OF IT.
IF YOU TALK TOO MUCH, THAT'S OUT OF BALANCE.
BUT THEN SOME PEOPLE DON'T COMMUNICATE ENOUGH
AND SO THAT'S OUT OF BALANCE.
[AUDIENCE LAUGHING]
JOYCE: HOW MANY OF YOU UNDERSTAND WHAT I'M SAYING,
YOU KNOW?
WE NEED BALANCE IN OUR LIFE.

The County Seat One on one with Dr Laura Nelson Energy Advisor for Governor Gary Herbert - Duration: 28:51.
Hello everybody welcome to The County Seat
I'm your host Chad Booth. Last week the
Deseret news had a paper sponsored op ed in
their paper about carbon and Carbon referring
of course to the County and its base line
economic driver coal. In the course of that op
ed they ended up talking about the fact that we
need to wake up to the reality that coal is going
to be changing and they were just basically
saying that energy officials in the state should
be looking at re-training people and we did not
think that was a fair conversation so we have
invited to The County Seat for this half hour Dr.
Laura Nelson who is Governor Herbert's energy
advisor and the Executive Director of the
Governor's office of energy and energy
development. Thank you for taking the time to
join us here.
Thank you Chad and I'm glad to be here.
It's always good to have a chat with you.
So last time you and I talked it was just at the
beginning of the Trump Administration and
there have been no appointments made in fact
the moratorium on coal had not even been
lifted so we are a year later down the track
what has changed?
Well definitely from the federal policy level we
are seeing a more favorable outlook on coal. So
it is not just been the coal moratorium but also
we have seen positive movement when it
comes to resource management plans through
the BLM or removal of BLM's master leasing
program that they had initiated and other
things that really were impediments that I think
to advance in coal leasing in particular. We
have also seen a relook at EPA's regional haze
initiatives specifically I don't know if you recall
that EPA rejected the state's implementation
plan for regional haze and that really pertains to
two of our very large power generations
systems. Hunter and Huntington and under the
federal plan which they then wanted to invoke
we were looking at 700 million plus dollars of
new investment for those plans. The state then
basically challenged that as did Rocky Mountain
Power our large investor on utility here in the
state and said they wait a minute the state
came up with a cost effective plan that achieved
what the federal regulations required under
regional haze. So what we have now with the
new administration is a relook at the states
implementation plan as cost effective solutions
so generally from the federal level its good
news right. But we have to look at when it
comes to coal its really about demand and
supply. It is also about costs in revenues. So
let's talk a little bit about demand and supply
just in the energy space generally. What we see
right now is kind of a levelling out of domestic
energy demand partly driven by the fact that
we have changing weather considerations but
overall demand is lower and we have become
energy efficient and in terms of supply we have
new renewables coming on. At the same time
when we look at what is happening in terms of
costs we have fuel prices for natural gas
declining so that means cheaper electricity for
natural gas maybe compared to coal and on the
revenue side for coal they are really seeing
some challenges in terms of what they are able
to get for energy sales for the reasons that we
have mentioned so fuel costs being a driving
factor more renewables being a driving factor
and policy which certainly impacts costs has
moved in a favorable direction and I think it
remains to be seen whether or not it moves up
favorably enough in light of these other factors.
That does address the issue of the commodity
prices. Natural gas has tended to be a little bit
more volatile in prices than coal. We are seeing
this supply thing handled can that volatility
come back to natural gas that might further
make coal a bit more attractive?
Well that is one thing that we always talk about
when it comes to natural gas is really the
volatility in pricing. Long term contracts for
natural gas are still pretty limited because it is a
hard commodity to predict in terms of pricing.
You and I have talked before about the fact that
it's always a risk to put all of our eggs in one
basket when it comes to resources. Today
natural gas makes up about 34% of our energy
portfolio domestically or our electric generation
portfolio coal is about 30% still domestically
renewables about 13% maybe a little less and
nuclear about 20%. We are seeing a changing
mix favorable natural gas profile but I think we
certainly need to be mindful of keeping a
balanced portfolio nationally.
We have consume our first 5 minutes we are
going to take a quick break here on the County
Seat and we will come back and continue our
conversation with Dr. Nelson its always
fascinating to talk to you. We will be right back.
Welcome back to The County Seat we are
talking with Dr. Laura Nelson today and we
have covered the federal and regulatory
environment and I do want to ask one other
question on that we have this reprieve from this
pressure on coal and administrative level but
that could change in 8 years could it not?
Sure.
Does that affect the decision by some to say
let's look at our future power generation by
coal because of that uncertainty.
question. What I was talking about earlier
because when we look at a generation resource
we have to compare the revenues to the costs.
The policy piece is just one part of the costs you
have maintenance and you have the fuel costs
and we have said natural gas is cheap relative to
coal and the emissions profile associated with
natural gas is pretty favorable too compared to
coal. This does not mean that coal is bad just
different. What we need to be doing right now
is an opportunity to take that message about
coal and the environment being incompatible and
continue on this path of talking about coal as
part of the all of the above energy mix can
actually drive environmental enhancements. In
fact there were some reports that came out
recently that were paired by the National
Energy Technology Lab in 2015 that had not
previously been released and one of the things
it talked about was the importance of
innovation in the coal space continuing to drive
the efficiencies in coal and the environmental
improvements in coal because we are going to
need that as part of an overall robust energy
mix. Back to our don't put your eggs in one
basket.
Exactly. So do you feel from your perspective
that there is in that spectrum some
improvement that can still be made as far as
coal and its environmental impact?
Absolutely. Utah and I shared this with you
before has very efficient power plants top 3 in
the country I think ways we can continue to
learn better use coal generation are already
taking place one has to do with ramping how
we can move coal fired generation up and down
to move with new resources like renewable
resources come on so that is one thing that we
can do and one thing we are seeing occur and
they act more like a natural gas plant makes
them more completive perhaps for the long
term with natural gas. Also I do not think we
are given our best effort nationally to carbon
capture and ultimately sequestration
technologies we have just spent probably close
to a decade not investing in coal innovation as a
nation so I think there is bandwidth that we
have not realized yet so I think it's time to focus
on that compatibility between coal and the
environment.
comes to my mind is coal burning and spewing
old black smoke from the movies from the 30's
well there is one application for carbon and the
other I see carbon fiber and I see all these
technologies coming out that carbon capture
does it have an afterlife?
Maybe I will address this in a couple of different
parts. One is we have seen a lot of coal
retirements in the last few years with most of
them occurring in 2015 and 2016 but we have
to remember that our coal fleet is pretty much
the oldest fleet in the country so these were
those older smaller less efficient maybe not as
environmentally sound facilities. Most of those
are retired in 2015-16.
Like the Price plant in Castledale, Carbon
County.
Sure you know there are still some retirements
on the books through about 2020. It remains to
be seen whether all of those retirements occur
or not but remember we are already dealing
with an older fleet. It is natural for innovation to
come in and replace that older fleet. That's
okay so the black smoke is definitely a thing of
the past and absolutely want to highlight that
what you see can bring out of coal plants today
really is steam. So I think it's important to say
that. Back to the innovation piece if we look at
carbon capture and sequestration carbon
capture there is already a use for that captured
CO2 in commercial operations so there is
already a market and we can continue to look at
infrastructure and build up for enhanced oil
recovery or for other uses in manufacturing for
that CO2 that is in fact captured. If we are
looking at longer term if we have a sequester
the carbon that is something we have to
continue to evaluate what does that look like
over time and what are the best places for that
long term sequestration to occur. So I hope the
three general parts of your question. Let me
know if I missed anything.
We have done well we are going to take a break
because the half hour just evaporates and we
will be right back in just a minute.
Welcome back to The County Seat we are
talking with Dr. Laura Nelson from the
Governor's office of energy development. We
left on the note of innovation and uses for coal
and part of that obviously is rare earth minerals
that are in high demand particularly for some of
the other sources of electricity generation that
also can come from coal. You brought a show
and tell today.
I did I want to give you this gift advancing Utah
coal. This is a report that the office of energy
development prepared and released last year
and I have to say we did not do it in isolation we
always do it with our partners we also worked
with Carbon County to establish the advanced
coal research group that were involved in the
development of this report one of the key
things that Utah is doing to drive continued
utilization of coal as I mentioned is part of the
overall all of the above energy mix that is
important for energy and the environment is
looking at how we can continue to be
innovative. We have carbon capturing,
sequestration technologies that have been
developed right here in Utah that are
continuing to progress and looking at pilot
scenarios we have opportunity for coal to
liquids technologies and we have also have a
couple that you may not think of if you are only
focused on the energy side of coal one is
converting coal into carbon so carbon fiber and
one is extracting rare earth minerals from coal
so coal to carbon is important as we look at our
overall energy mix because carbon creates
lighter materials so a car built out of carbon is
going to be a lot lighter than a car built out of
steel and it is going to be more energy efficient
so it's a win win.
That's true it is a win win.
Wind and solar definitely use a lot of rare earth
minerals and those rare earth metals are
typically found in Asia most of them in China
and the extraction process around the mining of
these rare earth minerals is not environmentally
neutral there are definitely some impacts. So
just like with anything we need to look at how
we can diversify our access to those rare earth
minerals in Utah we are looking at how maybe
coal can serve as a source of rare earth minerals
which would one help diversify impacts and two
help to increase the security of access to those
materials.
Right.
I do want to talk about the reliability coal factor.
I had this thought come to my head how many
power supply sources could easily be disrupted
in creating electricity for the grid and to me coal
plants are the only place where I see fuel on
ground ready to go in the hopper. Can you
address for us.
I think that the concern over fuel disruptions or
fuel volatilities not misplaced. We do need to
look at how are we going to insure reliability or
reliance over time especially as we see them
more of these intermittent resources come on
so let me talk about reliability and the context
of how we move electrons around. We need
transmission lines to do that and we have found
it takes a long long time to build transmission.
So as we continue to see those transmission
projects delayed there is a chance we will see
more congestion in what I will call the pipeline.
Because if you are relying more on the natural
gas to back up those intermittent resources
locally you could start to see some real
congestion in pipelines that is just my opinion. I
think real term real time that is an issue that we
are going to have to address I think your bigger
question is really around emergency scenarios.
How do we plan when it comes to reliability
resiliency in the face of an emergency and that
goes back to the need for the all of the above
resource mix and I think Utah demonstrated
that that mix can be affective in providing
resiliency and also reducing greenhouse gases.
In fact we have reduced our greenhouse gases
by 14% since 2008 and we have done it with
coal as part of the mix and we have also done it
without mandates.
Wow, that is impressive that leads me to
another thing while we have this reprieve we
have an opportunity to promote some of these
voluntary things that usually tend to get better
outcomes than required things that causes to
cut back. How does that fit into this mix?
We think that market based incentives really
work and I think that is demonstrated by the
Utah approach we are continuing to see
significant economic growth and so that
greenhouse gas reduction number in terms of
our electric generation mix we have realized
even as our economies continue to grow.
Growth may slow a bit but we are still a growing
economy and so we are going to want to
achieve our environmental goals our energy
goals while keeping energy affordable and that
is one thing that we have done here in Utah and
you can compare Utah to let's say California
where they have had very aggressive
greenhouse gas goals and I think you put our
accomplishments next to theirs and we have
been very successful. I think their reductions
would be in the neighborhood of about 20%
and they are debatable numbers since 2000 and
we are 14% since 2008 both very robust
economies growing economies but their
electricity rates are double give maybe just a
little bit compared to Utah rate so Utah is doing
it at the same time we are keeping energy
affordable.
So basically saying if I have a $70 electric bill at
my house and my house in California it would
be $140 a month.
Yes, pretty much.
Wow.
Depending on the time of year it might be
more.
break right here and going to add a bit to our
last I have a couple of question I want to save
and it will take some time to answer them so
we break early here and be back in just a
minute.
Welcome back to the County Seat we have
been talking about coal and its future in Utah.
We have a few counties that heavily rely on
coal it's been a part of their traditional
economies and these are the ones that the
Deseret news said wake up guys and figure out
something else to do being Carbon, Emery and
Sevier. Those are our coal economies in the
state is there any chance that we can clean up
coal technology and find some way of
proving its value in the next decade while we
have a favorable administration that there
could be new coal power plants that come on
line.
Well that is a tough question. It takes a long
time to plan a permit a coal plant. And you
need the investors there to do it. I would say
one of the biggest challenges right now is we do
not see dollars attracted to investing in new
coal plants. I think one goal that we can
achieve is retention of our current existing
efficient coal fleet and that is going to be
important for resiliency within our electric grid
system. There are ancillary service I will call
them that are provided by coal plants there are
also provided by hydro facilities that are
difficult to realize as these plants go away and if
we do not retain them we are going to see
higher prices period. In fact the reports I
mentioned by the national energy technology
lab already indicated that that is one I think
focus on retention of our very efficient cost
effective plants today. As far as economies go
we are coal has been a main stay of
development and growth I think that we need
to continue to look for the opportunities for
those coal resources and including exports you
and I have discussed that exports are up from
the US 60% in Q 1 of 2017 compared to the
same period in 2016 so global demand for coal
is still there so let's also work on figuring out
these export opportunities and we have seen
resistance at some of our ports I think there are
opportunities there and we have met recently
even with folks from Sichuan province in China
they came here and toured and met with
industry to talk about advance coal those
opportunities are real and those are the things
we can sort through.
Is there a possibility that we can export our
technology alongside of our coal?
Absolutely.
Perhaps improve the overall picture of coal as I
know that other places are not generating the
way we do.
Absolutely it's a combination of great
technology and really good coal that is going to
lead to the win win win for our energy our
economy and the global environment.
Okay very good do you think people are
generally misinformed about coal in Utah? The
general public the folks that may watch this
show?
I think it's a mix bag. Some people have a good
understanding of the value of coal and some
people do not have a full set of facts.
How do we fix that?
We continue the conversation and keep talking
about it.
Does this report have some of that conversation
in it?
I think so folks can go on line and take a look at
it energy.utah.gov/publications.
Excellent thank you so much for taking the time
with us today it's always a pleasure to talk to
you and find your conversations very
enlightening. Coal is still part of the picture and
give a shout out to Carbon county we still think
you have a good future in coal and obviously
the state seems to be taking it seriously and
trying to help you accomplish that. Thank you
for watching they County Seat and joining us
catch us on social media like us on Facebook
and we will see you next week on the County
Seat.

Wireless Charging 201: What I'm using #QiPower - Duration: 4:14.
- All right, it might not look like but I'm actually
doing some magic right now.
Oh, ah, ah, ah.
Okay, I'm not the one doing the magic.
I don't have any card tricks.
There's nothing under my hat.
I'm not wearing a hat.
Note to self, get some hats.
No, I'm talking about charging my
phone wirelessly, actually.
And not just my phone, but all the phones in the house,
mine, my wife's, my daughter's.
And the real magic here, I think that it's actually
made me a little bit less of a slob.
It might actually have me sleeping a little better at night.
So this is the second of three videos that I'm doing
sponsored by the Wireless Power Consortium.
And that's still a really cool company name.
On the first video, we took a look at the very basics
of wireless charging, what you need, why you might
want to do it, and if you haven't watched that already,
take a second, go do it, I'll wait.
All right, you're back, good.
In this one let's go take a look at how I'm using it,
and how my family is using it along side me.
Let's go.
(upbeat music)
Okay basics, you're gonna need a phone that has wireless
charging, or a case that goes on that phone
that has wireless charging.
Remember, we're talking about the QI standard here.
That's spelled Q-I.
For phones, all of Samsung stuff from
the past few years supports it, a couple generations
of LG phones now, the brand new iPhone eight,
and yes, the iPhone X.
Excuse me, I found ten.
Whatever, very cool.
You'll also need a wireless charger and yes,
I get it, it's not completely wireless, you have
to plug it into the wall.
If you're heading into the comments already, stop,
we get it.
Remember the key here, look for the logo on the box
or on the charger itself to make sure
that it's QI certified.
So you've got a phone that charges wirelessly,
you've got a wireless charger that charges
the phone wirelessly.
You plug it in, you put the phone on it,
you don't touch it, yo just leave it alone,
let it charge, that's it, super easy.
Let's go take a look at what I'm using,
and I'm gonna have links down below in the description,
if you want to pick any of these up yourself.
I've actually got a few chargers stashed in various
places all over the house.
By my computer I have one of those really good
Samsung two amp chargers.
It's not expensive, It's not brand new,
but it just works really, really well.
In the kitchen I've got this Spigen charger,
so I can keep things charged up just while I'm cooking.
I do love the angle of it here so I can keep a recipe,
or a video or whatever up on the screen while I'm cooking,
and still keep charging at the same time.
Then my kids have been doing the same thing
with one of Samsung's chargers.
It looks like a pillow, it does fast charging
if it's supported on the phone,
and it just looks nice, but really she can just prop
it up and watch videos and stuff while she's charging too.
And she needs to go clean her room.
Now my wife's iPhone six S doesn't do wireless charging
out of the box, but she has a Mophie wireless
charging case on it, with an extra battery.
That comes along with a charging pad itself,
and she's kept it on her nightstand and can just
charge wirelessly that way, super easy.
But I tell you, I've actually kind of talked her
out of using that, and here's why.
This is a triple charger from Ikea.
And it's actually the only thing in this house
from Ikea that didn't take me all day to put together.
I like this because first, it doesn't look like
your normal, nerdy wireless charger, it fits in.
Second, it does three phones at one time,
so I can charge mine, my wife can charge hers,
and my daughter can charge hers all out here
in one place, overnight, out of our bedrooms,
away from our faces while we're sleeping, and you'd
be surprised at how much better you sleep when you know
your phone isn't right there waiting to go off at any time.
So look, there's no right charger for anybody.
There's a whole bunch out there.
There are gonna be a whole bunch more out there.
A couple of things to keep in mind, just look
for the Qi logo, that will keep you out of trouble.
You can worry about amperages and fast charging speeds
and all that if you want.
Me, I care more about how it looks and where
I'm gonna put it in the house.
So if you have a cool wireless charger that you're using,
let me know down in the comments, maybe I'll pick one up.
Stay tuned for the next video, we're gonna go
for a little drive, it's gonna be fun.
All right, that's it, thanks again to
the Wireless Power Consortium for putting us up to this.
Be sure to subscribe to the channel if you haven't already,
and we'll catch you next time.
See ya.

I'M GOING TO (ATTEMPT TO) DO VLOGMAS! - Duration: 2:48.
Surprise!
Hello, I'm Rogan and as you obviously saw from the title, this is Vlogmas.
Vlogmas, for those who don't know, is similar to the idea of VEDA (Vlog Every Day August/April).
Or VEDIM, what I did, Vlog Every Day In May.
Vlogmas is a vlog every day up to the day of Christmas.
I will end on the 24th because I will be flying out to Alaska, visiting family.
So... I want to end the day before (Christmas).
I don't really want to think about doing something on Christmas itself.
So, you will be getting a video from me every day for 24 days... Hopefully.
I was thinking why not do this because I enjoyed doing VEDIM.
However, this probably will be a little bit different. I will try to be more holiday themed?
Maybe? I don't know. I'm not sure.
This [behind me] is probably the most festive I will get in this whole month.
Because my family isn't going to bother with Christmas decorations. We're not having Christmas here.
I will attempt to do some holiday-themed stuff but...will I? I don't know.
So, I just wanted to announce that I'm doing Vlogmas and keep an eye out for videos!
Please, let me know of any holiday-themed stuff that I could do. I need ideas please! *chuckles*
I will still be doing some regular videos too, like ASL Ponderings, Queer History, books.
So you know, tomorrow!
I don't know what I'm doing to myself this month. Honestly.
So I'm doing Vlogmas, so that's up to the 24th.
But I'm also doing the Holiday Adventure-a-thon, I will make a video about that next week probably.
And that will be from the 13th to the 24th.
And I'm also thinking I want to try to do 12 Days of Christmas, I will be drawing the 12 days of Christmas.
Starting on Christmas day, so... Basically, I am all booked for this month!
We'll see how this goes. A very short video today, but I just wanted to let you know what's up this month.
And... I hope you enjoy this journey?

Starbuck Holiday Drink Taste Test (Parody) | #BeautyMakeUpLoverSwag5Ever - Duration: 4:56.hey guys it's #BeautyMakeUpLoverSwag5Ever and today I'm gonna be
trying Starbucks is the new holiday drinks Cheers
so the first latte I'm gonna be trying is the eggnog latte I don't really like
eggs because they're round and anyway yeah I'm gonna be trying this it smells
nice that is the most gusting drink I've ever tried
first of all I love Starbucks but why would you put eggs in a latte so
basically this is eggnog like I'm assuming eggs are in it and eggs are
gross and what even is a knock like where did they come up with egg nog like
what's not anyway I rate this drink like a 1 out of 10 it is absolutely
gross don't recommend but honestly I love Starbucks so please sponsor me
Starbucks I love it and I go to Starbucks every single day but just I'm
never getting this again next year don't do this Starbucks okay okay guys next
one I'm super excited about I love gingerbread this is the gingerbread
latte okay so we're just going to try this
like I said gingerbread is a fave of mine and it's just oh my god this smells
like
oh my god this is so good it tastes like something so familiar ginger also guys
just a disclaimer no gingerbread men or women or haunt in the making of this
video I have because I don't work at Sur because I don't know so the next ring is
gonna be a toast in white chocolate mocha a lot think that this is called
mocha but it's not ever Oh che maybe it's another one of those contra
contrary problems go
Starbucks really did amazing on this one I really highly recommend the white
chocolate mocha this is amazing there is one thing I'm wondering now like how do
you toast a mocha I just wanted to take a second to tell you guys what I'm
thankful for because the holiday season is about talking about what you're
thankful for and gifts but it's mostly about what you think before and present
so I love getting presents anyway I just wanted to take a second to think myself
I am so lucky to be me I'm amazing I mean what else would I do without me
like who also bring you like quality Beauty room videos like you're welcome
and if you guys are thankful for me also what you totally should be and want to
give me a super amazing gifts this holiday season make sure to leave that
in the comments down below let me know how amazing and thankful you are for me
anyway we're gonna move on so the next holiday latte from Starbucks that I'm
gonna try is the holiday spice flat what what hey anyway I know I didn't talk
about the cups before but like I'm gonna talk about it now okay so um the cups I
don't understand what the problem is I don't understand the
problem about this people say that there's like something wrong with it
the only contra problem that I have is that the cups aren't orange because
orange is my favorite color let's go ahead and give it a whirl
anyway this is the holiday spiced flat white something I don't know I really
have no idea it's the holiday latte I spent somebody to go get it for me
because I don't have time for that I was too busy so let's try it
Wow I don't like it like I love Starbucks but just like not
this drink either okay so since it has the word white in the title of the name
of the drink let's see if it's way it's brown really Starbucks anyway guys
thanks so much for watching my video I know you enjoyed it and I'm just so
fortunate to be myself this holiday season so any of you guys make sure you
leave in the comments down below how thankful you are for me and how amazing
I am and I'll see you guys next time toodles

How to Crochet An Advent Calendar: Christmas Tree Step 2 - Duration: 14:59.
Hi everybody, I'm Mikey and this is part of the Advent Calendar Series
that is a crochet along. For those working on the crochet along with me every few days a new video will be available to advance
you to the next part of your project.
There are 15 tutorials in all to complete today's project.
If you're finding this and the crochet along is done all videos will stay up indefinitely. In the more information of this video you'll find
a link to the playlist where all the tutorials will be listed in order for you to play along. The entire pattern is now available
for free. For those who don't need a video
refer to the video description to get redirected to the pattern. So in the meantime let's begin with today's tutorial to advance you to the
next step and of course wishing you the very best of the festive season ahead.
So let's move along in the project.
We're going to do the Christmas Tree here today, and we're also going to do the star.
So we're gonna do both of these. This is number two of the crochet along. For this one
you're also going to need your buttons because we're gonna apply our buttons at the end in order to do this.
So let's take a look back at the pattern first
and then I'm gonna show you what you need to do in order to complete the tree.
So on page number two is the tree section 1, 2 and 3 and then we get go and do the start just like you
see here. So what's gonna happen is that we're actually starting this tree upside down. So you have to look at this tree from this
upside down perspective, and there's a repeat of different
Instructions just like you see here
and we're gonna go through those and it says to repeat step four as you see once you get there.
And you'll notice that it increases like a triangle.
But the reality is, is that we have to visualize this thing upside down in order to
begin. So with your 5 mm, size 'H' crochet hook today
let's bring back the tree, and I'll show you how to look at it from this point of view for the pattern.
So from this perspective. We're going to be crocheting starting at the tree at the top section
just like you see here, and we're gonna get a triangle, and then we're gonna fasten off.
We then are going to start the next section
fastening on as we just skip so many stitches and we do across and then we continue the triangle out again
and then we fasten off and then the final section we skip so many stitches,
go across and then go as a triangle. just like you see here. Let me turn
it around if you need to freeze-frame to see where these buttons are the buttons are
incremental just like you see. So you have 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 and 6 on the bottom,
you have four in the middle right here
and then you have four along this section here, you have three about halfway up,
you have four along this section here
and then finally the extra three right at the very top. So at the end of today's tutorial
we're also going to concentrate on the star, but let's start off with the Christmas Tree first.
So let's begin with the slipknot
and we're going to create this and insert our hook in this is using dark sage and a 5 mm, size 'H' crochet hook today.
So we have to then chain two so 1 and 2 and let's begin row number one.
It says one single crochet second chain from the hook, so just go, just count back
it's the very first one anyway, but you're just gonna do one single crochet here
and this is the very top of your Christmas Tree like so. We're then going to turn your work.
So I know it's kind of hard when there's only one stitch there, but that's okay
we're gonna get through it. So then we're gonna go row number two. So row number two it states chain one and two
single crochets in the first single crochet.
So just chain up one and there's only one here anyway, so we're gonna put two into this one, 1 and 2
okay and
then we're gonna continue, so we're gonna turn a work into row number three. So row number three says chain one and
it says two single crochets in each of the stitches.
There's only two, so you're gonna put two single crochets into each so 1 and
2 and
then do the next one it the next one over so 1 and 2,
just like that.
Okay, and then we're gonna turn our work and do row number four. So row number four is the identical for the remaining of
section number one.
We just have to keep on going in the same manner.
So we're gonna chain up one to always start and in the very first one
we're always gonna put in two single crochets so 1 and 2
and then in the stitches in between there's just gonna be one single crochet,
okay, and in the last,
so there's two in a row and in the last one here there's going to be two single crochets.
So that was row number four
So what happens is that you need to increase the tree
so there's up to have thirty four stitches all the way across. So turning your work
just chain up one and put in two single crochets in the first one, okay, so 1 and
all the sections work like this just so you know it for the future and then one single crochet in each going across
except for the very last one you are gonna put a total of two.
So just keep an eye on the stitch counts and just occasionally count
but you can look at the pattern and you can see that you got a little bit of a while to go before you can
even get thirty four stitches all the way across. So just to review one more time turn your work, chain up one,
two single crochets in the first one,
one single crochet in each going across except for the very last one where you'll put in two single crochets.
So I want you to repeat these steps until you get thirty four stitches across and
then just count it, count out just to make sure and
you should know that every time you're doing one row you're increasing the count by two
because you're adding one extra to the front and the back.
And I, when I come back so I want you to do that, when I come back I'll have that done for you. So
what I have here is that I have it increased out just like you see here
I've already put on my buttons and my star
but I've increased it out till I got to my 34 stitches all the way across.
Then I fastened off. So then moving on to section number two.
Section number two is that we're gonna skip the first seven stitches and then fasten on and then go all the way across and
you want to go until you leave the last
seven stitches untouched on the other side.
And then you just continue to put two single crochets in the first one and the last and you continue to go out
again
just like you see until there's 54 stitches going all the way across.
Then once you get that done is that you're going to fasten off and start once again on section number three skipping the first seven
and then you go all the way across ending leaving seven untouched and then continuing to
just grow out putting two single crochets on each side and continuing to grow it out like this.
Okay,
so once you have that done all you just need to do is then you need to sew this down to the actual project itself
and you can see where they have sewn it right here in behind.
So they just went
directly right across in order to hold it down into position so you can see it's kind of dipping down right here because it's
sewn right here
and it's also sewn along the edge. When you go to sew you'll notice that when they sewed they actually just
didn't go all the way through the project when they did that so they just went in the top upper sections here
just did the top fibers in order to hold it down. Then what they just did is then they just took
complementary buttons, and we have those buttons as well, and then we can just sew those into position and let's turn this one upside,
the other way
and you can get a good idea where all those buttons are. If you need to freeze-frame the video now is the time to do
it. So you can see where all the buttons are without any of the decorations on them
and as the week or the days come to gone or come to go you just take the decoration from the pocket
and then you just hang it on to the tree wherever you want in this entire tree will be decorated once we get that done.
So that's how you do this tree.
It's actually really quite an easy
section. The hard work really has been done within the actual
backdrop for time wise. All the rest of it then becomes not much easier to work with. So without further ado we're now going to move
on to the star. The star is actually really quite an easy one to do and then you have to then tack that down to
the top as well, and you can see that they tacked it just like right in behind here.
So let's begin to working on the star next.
So let's begin working on the star. You're going to need a gold color and in the pattern it has all this listed.
It's not very much work
that's required to do that and then we just create a center circle
and then we create a star points here in order to have it come off the edge.
And then once you have that done you sew it down to the top of your project just how I just indicated and there for
it'll be the star on the top of your tree. So without further ado let's show you how to do that.
To create the start all you're just going to do then is that you were going to start off with a slip knot and
you have to then chain a total of three so 1, 2, 3.
Then what you're going to do is that you're gonna put ten half double crochets third chain from the hook.
So you're just gonna wrap the hook first and go into the very first chain and
you wanna do that a total of ten times. So this is a half double crochet.
So 1, 2 this is 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9 and 10.
And once you have that done. You're just gonna slip stitch to the first half double crochet.
Make sure you go actually to the top of it don't go into a chain space because then I'll pull it apart.
Just like that, see so it's nice and closed. So let's begin round number two, chain up two
which doesn't count as a half double crochet by the way and you've got to put two half double crochets in each of the stitches
going all the way around. So
you're gonna be putting in two into that one and then two into the next one and
so forth. So put in two half double crochets in each going all the way around. There should be a total chain our
count of 20 half double crochets
when you go all the way around and it does matter because it is a star with five points in it, relies on you to
have 20. So please do that all the way around, two half double crochets into each.
So as you get all the way around you're just going to slip stitch to the top of the first half double crochet
and you're done. So you're gonna fasten this off. Now usually in stars
we don't do that
but the designer is asking us to. So we fasten off first and
the points work over four stitches. So if you think about there's 20
stitches going all the way around.
I'm just weaving it in as I talk to you. Then what happens is that you can have five points which
equals a total of 20. So 4 times 5 points equals 20 stitches.
So let's begin doing one of the points. So we're just gonna start off with a slip knot first onto the
needle or hook and you're gonna choose any one of the half double crochets,
it really doesn't matter which one you choose because they're all equal. Just
fasten it on with the slip stitch so just pull through and through and you want to chain two.
Okay, so that doesn't count it as anything. So now you're going to then put the next two together.
So you just go right into the one you did the join so wrap the hook first
It's a half double crochet two together pull through and then
go into the very next one. So wrap the hook and go into the next one and pull through and
you'll have a total of five loops on your hook, so you're just gonna pull through all five.
So then you're gonna do that again with the next two. So wrap the hook going in, pull through,
wrap the hook going into the next one pull through and
then you'll pull through all five loops on
the hook.
Okay, so just take your time, and then you turn your work.
So you technically only have two stitches here when you turned. So you're going to then chain up two,
okay, and you are going to
put in their, um
half double crochet in each of the next two. So you're gonna do the first one and
the next one
and then turn your work okay, and then you're going to chain two and
these two are going to be coming together. So just put those a half double crochet two together
like that and then you fasten off.
So you pull through everything and
then fasten off, so there is a point right there.
So I'm gonna show you one more time just to make sure it's clear.
So then you just leave enough of a strand here that you can hide that in and then you sew that down on to your,
your backdrop. So let's begin to do it one more just to make sure, I'm gonna get rid of this
strand here. So let's do another point. So just grabbing the yarn create a slipknot and
we're going to go into the next one so
see where this one is part of that one so we go into the next one available.
Going in let's fasten it on with the slip stitch
and chain two, doesn't count as anything
it's a builder. So this one plus the next one is gonna be two together for half double crochet.
Okay, so you've got five loops on your hook pull through all five and do the same with the next two. So just advancing in
the next two
okay, pull through all five loops and then turn your work, so you're gonna chain up two and
there's only two stitches here, so there are only gonna be half double crochets one in each this time.
So you get like a row without having to think too much about and then turn your work,
chain up two and the two that you have left you're gonna bet put those together for
a half double crochet
just like you see and
then that's it. So you fasten off and there is another point for you.
And you keep doing that until you get five points.
So once you have that done is that you can refer to
the section and you can sew it down to here and when you look at the back you can see that
they hid the back section in right here, so all the strands that were on the tails were in the back.
You'll never see it anyway, so it's actually pretty easy to do and therefore you've done your tree
and you've done your star, you've got it sewn down, and the next time we come back in the next video
we are going to work on how to do these pockets. The pockets are relatively easy they take a little bit of time. Got some
slip stitching work in order to create the numbers that you see
but other than that that's what we're gonna be doing next. So I'll see you next time here on The Crochet Crowd as well
as yarnspirations.com. Bye, bye 👋

DIY Sleeveless Sweater - How To Remove the Sleeves and place a Stencil - no sew - Duration: 2:04.
In this video I will make a sleeveless sweater.
Because I used already parts of the sleeves for a previous project.
And in 2 weeks I'm heading back to Hong Kong And I think the sleeveless sweater will be
suitable for the weather there.
For this project I use a seam ripper.
You can by them in Ebay or Amazon.
They're very cheap.
So I will remove this seam.
And this seam.
Maybe I will also remove this one.
Also I will cover the screen print I made years ago.
I'm sick of it now so
I will put the Hong Kong flag.
Now let is dry.
I use the oven to make the process faster.
You can also use a hair dryer.
Ok that's done.
Now I touch it up with a little brush and then I
put it back in the oven to dry.
I think I'm ready to go on my trip now.
Thank you for watching.

Is the Market Really Growing Slower? - THE TRUTH! - Duration: 5:49.
Stop the presses!
People the market is growing slower than ever before!
It's almost not even worth putting your money in stocks, any gains that you get will be
wiped out by inflation!
And then what if the market goes down?
What if it goes down?!
Somebody hit the panic button!
Hey guys Daniel here from Next Level life and today we're going to be covering a question
that I'm sure you have seen at some point in well a lot of the financial articles over
the last few years and that is whether or not the market is actually growing at a slower
Pace than it was in the past.
I've heard a lot of people say that the last fifteen have been the worst in the stock market's
history.
But is that really true?
Is the market really growing slower than ever before?
And if it is true then is it still worth it to invest?
Well the answer is a little bit tricky, because as is the case with a lot of financial questions
the answer is it depends.
And it depends on a few factors, the first is what time frame are you using to make the
claim?
For example if you look from September of 2000 to september of 2017 when this audio
is being recorded, then there's no question that the Market's been growing slower than
usual.
Like I've said in previous videos the S&P 500 has grown at a rate of about 8.6 percent
per year from September of 1978 to September of 2017.
Which is way more than the 2.5 percent per year rate from September 2000 to September
2017.
However that's basically starting from the absolute peak of the market before the crash
and only looking at a short time period to gather your results.
It usually takes a few years for the market to rebound.
You could also say that the market is growing faster than ever before if you were to look
at September of 2009 until September 2017.
During that time period the market is growing at about 13% per year on average.
But of course that has the same problem in reverse you're starting from basically the
bottom of the market and examining only a short window of time to back up your claim.
And what's more is you're not taking into account all the factors.
In essence you're almost asking the wrong question.
Because whether the market is or is not actually growing at a slower rate than before isn't
the most important thing to know.
The most important thing to know is what's happening to our individual buying power.
Because money is only as good as what it can buy.
One of my finance professors back in college always used to talk about how you could fall
asleep for a hundred years with a couple thousand dollars invested in the stock market and when
you wake up you realize that you all of a sudden had $1,000,000 invested in the market
and you'd be thrilled.
You'd call all your buddies and tell them that you're taking them out for dinner,
and it's on you.
Then you go to the local McDonald's and realize that one Big Mac is going to run you 2 Grand.
Suddenly you don't feel as Rich anymore.
So again money is only as good as what it can buy.
And also I like how the character in this example realizes that he's a millionaire
and the first place he thinks to take his friends is still McDonald's (chuckle)...
I'm sure there's a lesson about the power of habit in there somewhere.
Or maybe this particular character was just cartoonishly frugal-
Anyway getting back on topic.
In order to figure out what it can buy you also have to look at the CPI or Consumer Price
Index which is basically a way to get an idea of inflation during a certain time period.
The CPI basically measures a weighted average of prices of a basket of consumer goods and
services including food, beverages, housing, apparel Transportation, medical care, Recreation,
education and some other goods and services and sees how quickly the prices for them change
over time..
And sometimes, though not always, you'll see that when the CPI is increasing very quickly
so is the market.
A great example of this would be between the years 1979 and 1983 during that time the market
was growing at an average of about 12 and a half percent per year however inflation
was just about keeping Pace with that.
We saw an 11% increase in the CPI in 1979 a 13% jump in 1980, a 10% boost in 1981, and
a 6% and 3% increase in '82 and '83 respectively.
That averages out to an inflation rate of almost 9% per year during that time.
Meaning that you're effective increase in buying power only increased by an average
of about three and a half percent per year from 1979 to 1983.
So when you look at it from a buying power perspective has the market really been doing
that bad these last 15 years?
As it turns out not really.
If you look at the market as a whole for the 40-year period from 1978 to 2017, you see
that it is grown at an average of 8.6 percent per year.
During that time the average inflation has been about 3.7% per year.
Meaning your increase in effective buying power during that time is about 4.9 percent
per year.
But in the last 15 years, so from 2003 through 2017 the market has grown at an average of
7.2 percent per year.
Which on the surface is lower, but the average inflation rate during that time has been 2.1
percent per year.
Meaning your average increase in effective buying power has been about 5.1 percent per
year.
So there you have it my friends technically if you look at it just from a market appreciation
standpoint the market is growing slower than before, but if you take into account what
you can actually do with the money that's appreciating it doesn't really look all that
bad.
But that'll about do it for me I hope you enjoyed the video and if you did or if you
learned something be sure to like And subscribe I've got a lot more of these Finance coming
out in the near future as well as some more book summaries and other fun stuff.
But with that being said, thanks for watching and have a great day.

I went into the Derwent Mouth Lock during its Restoration - Episode 28 - Duration: 6:16.I've moved down the canal a little bit. I went down through Swarkestone Lock and
on a really nice countryside bit here, very, very quiet. The main reason for it,
even though I had winter mooring up at the top, the towpath was getting really
muddy and I was finding madam with her four feet, rather than just mine, was
trampling mud through the boat and mess and stuff so, I've come up here where
it's nice and dry and it's fine now. It does mean I have to walk across a
certain field to get to the car, but in a weird sort of way, I'm actually closer to
the car than I was at Swarkestone so, there's plus and minuses.
So at this time of year the Canal & River Trust do their winter stoppages.
What that means is they completely stop the traffic going through various parts
of the network and that's purely so that they can do their maintenance. I'm
just walking down the final part of the Trent & Mersey Canal before it goes out
onto the River Trent and it Derwent Lock, they're doing maintenance here. They put
complete stoppages in, so that they can take gates out, replace them, put
different covings in, deal with the cill that's in the little bottom of the lock
chamber, basically all the things that they need to do to keep all the boats
navigating around the system, during the rest of the year. Because most of the
boats are moored up in marinas like this, over the winter months, it gives
them time to do them. The stoppages are advertised on the Canal & River Trust
website months and months and months in advance, so people can plan their
way around the system. For example, I was down on the Coventry Canal and I knew I
wouldn't be able to get up past here, to get up onto the River Soar for example.
So I booked my moorings up at Swarkestone. But it just means that you've got to be
aware of the surroundings and be aware of the stoppages. Derwent Mouth Lock was
built in 1777 and it's the first lock on the Trent & Mersey Canal. I've traveled
through it many times and it's a well-used lock, allowing boats to travel
back and forth from the River Trent, up onto the canal. With all its use, this
winter it's time for a bit of restoration and repair. A number of
wooden beams or to use their technical term 'stanks' are wedged in place at both
ends of the lock, to seal it. However, water does continue to seep past them, so
ash from steam trains is poured into the water and the seeping flow carries the
ash into the gaps, causing it to make a tighter seal.
[Gurgling water]
A number of damaged coping stones have been replaced, with handcrafted
stone and once the chamber could be inspected, brickwork could be repaired.
There was some breaks are actually missing and there were some that were
actually too degraded to be repointed it's a bit of a toss-up, basically you have
to do a lot by eye because you'll look at things in your think, you know, can I
shall I chop that out, shall I leave it. Ultimately in things this age, you could
just turn around and go, the whole lot needs chopping out. At which point, you've
got a new lock. So to keep the historic structure as intact as possible, the
Canal & River Trust need to restore, rather than replace. As the lock is
listed, they're not allowed to use cement. Instead, they need to use sand and lime
to fix the stones and bricks into place. Some damage is only visible once the
lock has been drained. We found that this gate was dragging on the bottom a little bit.
On further examination, we realised that the actual bracket on the top, that sits around there, one side of
it had snapped. It's made out of cast iron and it had snapped and the actual stone itself
it had got a fault in it and it had separated. So it was letting the whole thing move, so that
was a job that we hadn't anticipated. They've dug it out and are waiting for a
one and a half tonne sandstone to be quarried and bought here by boat. The restoration
here is due to take around about six weeks and it's planned to stop on the
12th of December, even though they have had extra work to do.
And the total cost is around about £120,000. With hundreds of locks
scattered across the country, this time of year is jam-packed with work and
they've only got a small window of opportunity before the canal springs to
life again in March. So if you wanted to come and have a look at this lock,
it's open on the 2nd & 3rd of December.
They've got viewings here, the guys and the team that actually are fixing the
lock and preparing it and restoring it, they'll be here. As well as up on the
canal on the Trent & Mersey, they've got horse-drawn boats going up and down
there. So you can see that, of how it used to be in the olden days and now onto
the River Trent and the River Derwent,
they've got river trips to Sawley Marina. I've included a link in the description
below about this weekend's event. If you liked this episode, please do give it a
thumbs up, leave a comment and until next time, see you later.
