Yes, I have held an apple before.
Plenty of coffees.
Phones, makeup, lipstick, lots of nail polish.
For the past decade hand modeling has been my full time job.
It really is funny work.
I'm Adele Uddo and I am a parts model.
Parts modeling is short for body parts modeling so I mainly do hands but I've done lips, legs,
feet, eyes, chest, even ear lobes.
I am generally known as a high-end hand -- Dior and Christian Louboutin.
Most parts models have a side gig.
There's just a handful of us, so to speak, that do it full time.
It's sort of a you know underground-ish subculture of modeling.
It's something that I sort of fell into.
I certainly didn't plan for a career in parts.
I had been told a few times, mainly by my grandmother, that I had nice hands
so I went on a casting once and ended up booking this big job, and thought,
you know, maybe my grandmother is onto something.
What they typically look for is like, the shape of the hand: Long fingers, thin wrists, great skin tone is crucial.
If you look good cropped, you've got a career.
I love parts modeling in that I can be, like, viewed by millions of people and still remain private
and anonymous.
For many years I felt almost ashamed to be a parts model and I think it was ultimately because
I was raised by this hippie feminist mother and her friends.
I felt like I was somehow betraying them by becoming this objectified body parts model.
There was this girly part of me that just wanted to express myself and wear lipstick
and somehow I felt guilty when I did that.
I really love what I do, and I'm grateful for what I've been able to do.
Sometimes I judge myself for not being deep enough, you know, I've wanted to contribute
more to society than nice nail beds.
I'm not too precious with my parts.
I have learned to take pride in my work and to take it more seriously than I used to.
But I also want to have a life and use my hands.
I garden, I hike, I swim, I dance.
I would say that when your body becomes sort of an object it's harder in some ways to inhabit it.
Because my body parts are literally under a microscope, a macro lens -- and everything
shows -- I think I scrutinize myself more than actually I have felt scrutinized by the industry.
I admit to obsessively moisturising.
Probably...
Five-ish to 15 times-ish
a day.
So every year I'm going through at least a gallon of lotion.
I created a lotion actually, Essentiel by Adele.
Sort of out of necessity because I had to keep my skin in shape for these macro close-up
photographs where it's literally down to the cuticle.
So I ultimately wanted, like, a premium face lotion I could afford to put all over my body.
I don't believe you need
a bazillion bottles in your bathroom, I believe it can be a lot more simple and more effective.
It's not that difficult. It ultimately comes down to ingredients.
I don't really consider myself a great cook but I can cook a good lotion.
I don't think you can really miss that there's sort of an inherent absurdity to what I do.
I'm always surprised at how natural the hands look when I'm hand doubling for someone because
it's such an unnatural process.
I'm, you know, underneath someone's arm pit like trying to gracefully put my hand on the side of their face.
Parts modelling is what I do, it's not really who I am.
It's part of who I am, and I've learned to appreciate it.
But yeah, I don't take it all so seriously.
Now I realize we can be many things, many parts
we can have even conflicting parts of ourselves; I can be superficial and deep, you know, it's not an either or.

Most Surprising Facts About Austria - Part 2 - Duration: 10:27.
Here on FTD facts we've gone to great strides to understand many different cultures and people from around the world
Which means we've done many videos looking at different cultures and countries and finding out what is great about them
But here today on FTD facts, we return to the great and amazing country known as Austria a beautiful country
that is also well defined and
Contributes much to the world as we know so for our returning viewers
welcome back to learning more about the country of Austria a place that is all about peace prosperity and
Has a history and amazing culture. Hey, everybody. What's going on? Welcome to FTD facts
My name is Dave Walpole and for our returning viewers man. Yeah, that's right
We're getting back and we're talking about Austria for all of you guys who are new here for the channel
Well, we talk about cultures and countries a lot
and if that's your thing well
You want to hit that subscribe button in that Bell notification because this is the kind of stuff that we upload now for me
I'm very excited to talk about Austria because first of all
I find it a very beautiful and awesome country and
It's just rather different from my own country and it's different from other places around the world
And one thing that I really love learning about Austria as we find more history about it
We find out how different it is from Germany
Which a lot of people from around the world will sometimes identify Austria and German as so similar that they're pretty much the same
But that's not really the case
Now also keep in mind guys if you guys are really liking this content and you want more stuff around Austria
well
I hit that like button because if we get over
5,000 likes then we will do a part 3 I guess or we'll dive into more particular culture
Maybe we'll talk about the militaries of Austria and go into those sort of topics
But either way, let's get cracking on this
so one of the big things that you guys were talking about in our last
Video you guys had mentioned that dialects were a huge thing within the country
And this was because in our last video we talked about languages and sort of the ethnic groups that are within the country
But it was the topic of dialects that most of the people in the comments were talking about and for me
I was shocked because I mean for myself
I don't really hear a lot of different dialects to me because I'm English
It all sounds very much the same not really to offend anybody
But when it's a foreign tongue in a foreign language, it's really hard to identify
Differences but one thing that is pretty fascinating is the of dialects that are within this country
Of course
Most people will suggest that there is just the Austrian and Bavarian dialect in which they make up the largest speaking group
But of course, there's also the alemannic dialect which is also a large part that is more located to the west
but as for the amount of dialects within Austria
It's actually uncounted and it's hard to actually figure that one out
the reason for this is because people within the country have said that they've encountered many different dialects within big cities such as
Vienna and of course within these cities and villages and states they have many different grammar and vocabulary
differences and just to clarify for me at first I wasn't really sure the difference between dialects and accents accents is really
How you pronounce sort of things with a sound dialects is based off of vocabulary and that sort of stuff
Another thing that we also missed in our last video
Which we needed to talk about was the amount of thermal spas and Springs that are in the country and for Austria
They have a lot of thermal spas and it's a very very popular thing within the country and although there are many different places throughout
The country that have major spas if we look at Vienna, for example
It is the only capital in the world that can claim to have its own thermal spa
Which is known as hablar therm also the spa town known as bad gastein has a spa that sits at approximately
1110 meters above sea level now. I don't know if that means that's the highest sort of spa in the world
I'm gonna assume not but that's still pretty awesome and to move along with other topics that we've missed one thing that we got to
Talk about is coffee. This is because coffee makes up a huge part of Austrian culture and for the coffee culture
One thing that I found really fascinating is the legend that surrounds how coffee
First came to the country because for coffee culture it started all the way back in the 17th century
Largely due to the fact that the Turks were trying to invade Vienna which they began their assault on July 14th
1683 and it was during this battle that coffee became a huge thing
But before we get into that
we also got a look at some other really cool myths and legends that came from the Battle of Vienna of
1683 for example
They believed that this was the pinnacle moment of the ottoman and Habsburg war which lasted over 300 years?
During this battle
It was also noted to have the largest Calvary charge in human history
Which consisted of over?
20,000 polish Austrian and German cavalry who rushed against the Turks now that particular fact on the Calvary is not
considered an actual
mythological or
Legendary thing it's considered fact by historic papers, but when it comes to certain legends around the Battle of Vienna
There are a lot of culinary legends, which actually guys I'm not gonna lie
There is so much information about the culinary myths and legends around this particular battle
But I'm gonna go into just a few of them and to get into some of these legends
We need to jump back to coffee
Because it's majorly believed that after the Battle of Vienna
the Turks left behind bags and barrels of coffee in which shortly after the battle Jerzy Kazuki, who is a
Diplomat for the country but was famous for also retreating from the city during the siege and bringing in reinforcements?
Which helped win the battle ended up taking the coffee beans and opening the first coffee house that same year
There's also a rumor that the whole adding milk into tea and coffee was started from him
but in contrast to this wide legend
It's also believed that an Armenian man named Johannes Theo dot was the first man to introduce a coffeehouse in
1685 into Vienna, but that's not the only thing guys
We also got to talk about the Kisan now a lot of people look at the croissant and they say well it's got to be
French it sounds like it's from France, you know, it's a pastry sort of thing. Yeah baked good
It's got to be from France right well, believe it or not
It's widely believed that actually the croissant originated from Austria and more specifically
Vienna because after the Battle of Vienna
It's widely believed that bakers from Austria
Actually celebrated by baking bread in the shape of crescents that are present on the Ottoman flag
And as for it becoming a French delicacy
it's believed that Vienna born Maria Antoinette made the croissant famous when she
introduced pastries to the country of France
And also if you sometimes go to France, you'll notice that croissants are sometimes called Viennese breads
All right, let's move along
Stop talking about food and let's look at some other really cultural aspects of Austria
for example
And one of my most favorite things is that Austria was home to the first woman to be nominated
and win for a Nobel Peace Prize and the woman who was famous for this is known as
Bertha von sutnar in which she was not only the first female to win for that particular prize
But she was also the first Nobel laureate of the entire country and the second female to win allora in the entire world
She won this because she was a big voice for Austria's peace movement after
Writing her book dive on neater which means lay down your weapons or arms, which she wrote in 1889
also, it should be noted that she was a major influence and friend to Alfred Nobel and because of that she is one of the
reasons why Alfred Nobel included a Peace Prize in his will when he died in
1896 now one thing that we also got to talk about when it comes to the achievements of this country
We also got to talk about sound. That's right. I'm talking Mach
so, of course when we travel at certain speeds
We are always affected by other forces whether it be gravity or wind
And of course when we think of the speed of sound we identify it as Mach which has its own rating system
Which begins with Mach 1 but did you know that the term for Mach actually comes from an Austrian scientist?
even though the term Mach was coined by Swiss aeronautical engineer Jacob a curette in
1929 he decided to name it after the Austrian scientist Ernest Mach who was a physicist and philosopher
That contributed so much to science that. He even foreshadowed Einstein's theory of relativity
but either way guys there you have it that is just a look at some of the interesting facts about Austria and how
Austria's influence has affected the world
My name is Dave Waka's
And I want to thank you the viewers for taking your time to

I WANT the Audi e-tron. - Duration: 5:30.
- Hey guys, this is Austin
and this is the brand new Audi e-tron.
Now, Audi was awesome enough to sponsor
our trip out here to San Francisco for the launch event
and I've got to say I want one.
Like, I really, really want one.
The e-tron brand has been around for a couple of years now,
primarily on the A3 e-tron.
It's a cool car, but it is a plug-in hybrid
whereas this is fully electric.
Something I really appreciate about the e-tron is
that it actually doesn't look ugly.
Now, that might sound like a backhanded compliment,
but a lot of electric cars straight up
do look like science projects.
This looks like a classic Audi
with a little bit of an electric flair.
One of the easiest ways to spot
that this is an e-tron and not a standard Audi is
going to be with the grill.
Now, it looks similar, but the main difference here is
that it actually isn't a full grill.
So in fact, this is the only area
that will actually open up and that's purely based
on how you need to cool the battery
or stuff like the air conditioning.
When you're on the freeway, it can all close up,
and this is going to be fully aerodynamic.
Take a look inside the e-tron,
what you're going to find is something
that is very much classic Audi
but with a lot of nice tech touches.
So you get all kinds of information up on here.
For example, you can get a giant high-resolution Google map,
or you can get some more of the performance data,
some more of the economy stuff,
as, of course, you're driving an electric vehicle
and you want to be able to see
how efficiently you're driving.
There's a bunch of different things
that you can do with virtual cockpit.
But that, my friends, is just the beginning.
You also have two additional screens
here in the center console.
This is going to be the main display.
It works for things like your navigation
and it does have this nice little Haptic touch feature,
which is shared with not only this display,
but also the one in the backseat.
This is where you're going to do
primarily most of the stuff in the vehicle.
You can pull up like car play, your settings,
whatever you want to do,
and below that is where you can control
all of the different climate control stuff
and a couple of other settings.
So if I want, I can say, just turn up the fan,
can set the dual zone climate control.
Or you can do a couple of other things,
like, say, open your garage door
or turn off the screens altogether.
Unfortunately, we're not actually connected
to the Internet right now but if we were,
I could show you that Alexa is built into the e-tron.
Now, this is a new partnership with Amazon
and it's the full version of Alexa,
which is using LTE to be able to ask it,
well, pretty much anything you want.
So in theory, you can say on your way home,
hey, Alexa,
start my
garage door opener?
Something really cool that's sadly not coming
to the US is the virtual mirror.
Now, right now, it's going to be exclusive to Europe
mostly because of the regulations here,
but essentially it replaces
the standard mirrors with cameras.
Now, what this means is that not only is
it going to help with aerodynamics,
but this little section right here is going to be
replaced with an OLED display,
which will then show you what's going
to be going on behind you.
On top of that, it will even adjust the view
based on how quickly you're driving.
So, say you might see a little bit of a wider view
on the freeway or a little bit of a tighter view
when you're on a side street or whatever the case is.
But it's going to be fully adjustable
and it's a fricking camera and a screen
in your side mirror thing.
I want it.
The star of the show here is
definitely the electric powertrain.
Now, you actually can kind of see this from the outside.
So underneath the floor of the cabin is
going to be the full 95 watt hour cell.
There is a lot of engineering that goes
into that battery cell.
So on top of being about the largest capacity
that you can get on any electric vehicle right now,
there's going to be a lot of safety
and, importantly, a lot of cooling inside.
So the entire bottom of the battery is
all going to be liquid-pooled and on top of that,
this crash structure around it is hugely important
because, you know, if someone hits your car,
you don't want your batteries to be impacted.
So not only is there is going to be
an actual crash structure on the side of the cell,
but each individual battery cell,
there are going to be 36 of them that take up
the actual battery space,
they're all going to be individually protected
with a very strong steel frame.
There's not a final US range number available
for the e-tron yet since it won't be going on sale
until next year but based on the European cycle,
you should expect 200 plus miles on a charge.
And that combined with the ultra fast charging
should mean that, well, I don't care,
that's fine, that's plenty for me.
The e-tron will charge up to 150 kilowatts.
Now, as far as I know, that's about the quickest
electric vehicle car that you can find.
At a full 150 kilowatt hour charge,
what you can do, is you can get this thing
from 0% to 80% in 30 minutes.
The e-tron is powered by a pair of electric motors,
one on the rear axle, one on the front.
Now, in addition to giving you
the full Audi quattro experience of all wheel drive,
you're going to be getting some pretty decent power.
So the finalized figures aren't in just yet here in the US,
but you should expect somewhere
in the neighborhood of 350 to 400 horsepower.
And importantly, since it is an electric vehicle,
you're going to have a lot of torque
and it's going to be instant.
There's also a boost mode on board.
So if you want just a little bit of extra power,
or say you're trying to outrun Marquez or something,
not that I would ever do that in an e-tron,
then there's actually going to be a little bit
of extra power for a few seconds,
which you can engage either by putting the car in sport mode
or if you really floor the throttle,
there's actually a button on the backside of the pedal,
which will then give you just a little bit
of extra juice for a few seconds.
Even though it's an electric vehicle,
you're not giving up a lot of practicality.
So this has standard air suspension,
which you can see is currently lowering all the way down.
You have a couple inches of play,
whether you want to go off road
or you want to go into dynamic mode,
which is the fun mode.
You should drive it in fun mode.
And if you really want to go crazy with it,
this can actually tow up to 4,000 pounds
if you get the tow package,
which I just kind of want to try
because, you know, an electric car that's fast,
and roomy, and can tow?
I'm just really trying to sell my fiance on this
right now so just between us, just roll with it, okay?
What really impresses me with the e-tron is
that it feels like it is the full package.
Sure, you're getting an electric vehicle,
but it's also a luxurious Audi with all
the bells and whistles and, importantly,
all the functionality that you would expect.
I was kind of surprised to say this,
but I'm glad that Audi really sponsored our trip out here,
because I legitimately want an e-tron.

How to Break in Hiking Boots || REI - Duration: 3:11.
hey my name is live the number one
question that I tend to get asked in
store is how do I break in my hiking
boots and about how long is that going
to take it's a really good question the
answer is that it varies it depends on
if you've got some lighter hikers that
are just you know probably gonna feel
really good right out of the box so some
more rugged mountaineering boots that
are gonna take a little bit of time and
anything in between so first off I just
want to let you know what not to do
don't resort to any kind of quick fixes
don't worry about soaking them in water
going on really Lian long hikes or walks
right right out of the box avoid that
focus on this next series of steps here
so what we're gonna do is talk about the
three things that you should do the
process of going about breaking in your
boots first off take your brand new
boots take them home throw in whatever
insoles and socks that you might have
purchased and wear those around the
house just as you're walking around
doing your normal daily thing after that
go check the mail go run some errands
around town give your boots some time on
pavement to actually see how they feel
in a stiffer environment after that what
you're gonna go ahead and do is what
you've been waiting to do and you're
gonna hit the trail so throughout each
of these steps I want you guys to be
vigilant and kind of keep in mind any
kind of pinches or problems that you
might happen to be incurring if you
happen to notice any kind of pinching
going on in the toe box or any kind of
hot spots around the ankles go ahead and
maybe check out our links for lacing
techniques so you can relay these and
try to alleviate some of those small
problems before they become big ones now
once you're out on the trail make sure
you've got your day pack your ten
essentials soft insoles and of course
your boots here start off nice and slow
go for an easy hike keep it steady you
just want to give your boots some time
to know what it feels like amongst rocks
roots and all of that rugged environment
that they'll encounter on the trail so
once you've got that period down kind of
keep in mind what you're going to be
doing in the long term what's your goal
for the boots that you bought if you're
gonna go ahead and do a couple day climb
on top of a mountain you're gonna be
carrying fifty pounds on your back you
want to make sure that you're gradually
leaning into that distance that kind
been finding that weight that you're
gonna be carrying there don't carry 50
pounds right off your back right away
for 4,000 feet of game just take it easy
slowly and gradually increase the weight
that you've gotten your back and the
distance that you're going that'll be
the most generous on your boots as well
as on your feet and yourself if it turns
out that the lacing techniques that we
recommend it aren't going to be the fix
for the boots maybe it's time to head
back into the local area oh you got the
boots at consult a fitness Footwear
specialist and make sure that maybe the
the boot stretcher that we've got in
store might be able to help kind of buff
out some of those problems and alleviate
them if not chances are we couldn't need
to just start from scratch and get you a
new pair of boots there if you guys are
interested in learning some more about
hiking boots or perhaps trail runners
and seeing how they compare to hiking
boots we've got a video that can kind of
give you the differences there and help
you decide which might be best for you
and if you go ahead and head down in the
description we've got the links for the
placing techniques and any other kind of
based information you guys might need to
have have a good one

Determining Good VS Bad Real Estate Partners Part 2 - Duration: 8:54.
So listen up friends, if we're going to dive into the conversation of partnering, we
first got to get something out of the way. Who's going to make a good partner and
who's going to make a bad partner.
♫♪ Tonton ton ton ton ton ton ton ton ♫♪ Don Dada♫♪ Listen, we're getting married, right?
I mean, if we're going to partner, I want you to understand something. This is not like
just a weird random dude and dudette that live on the other side of the
planet and like, "Hey let's put up some money Kris. You do the deals and then
it's like..." Listen, money is not the qualification for deciding who to
partnership. I want you to think of this a little bit more like a marriage, right?
I mean, obviously not as thorough but when people use that phrase we're
getting in bed together, here's what it kind of means. You kind of don't know
everything that you're going to know about that person until it's too late.
One of the lessons that I learned in marriage with my wife that I didn't
understand when I got married nearly 17 years ago, was that I wasn't just
marrying who I understood her to be, I was marrying everything I did not know
about her. In fact, I was also marrying every decision she was going to make in
the future that I wasn't aware of. And this can produce a risk. You see, I have a
long-term track record of treating my partners fairly and building wealth over
the last 15 years. But there are some unknowns. One of those is what will the
economy do. And for me, who will you be as a partner? You see, you got to have
standards. And one of my standards is, I'm making enough money in my life where I
want to work with people I like. So, by the way, if you say, "Wow, I think I might
want to partner with Kris. I've got some money and I want him to cherry pick the
very best deals." And if you actually click on the link to speak to a member
of my team, you need to understand that there is an interview process. And what
they're going to do is they're going to learn about your how abundant versus scarce
you are. There's scarcity and prosperity, right? They're going to also be just
checking out your attitude, your personality, how you show up. Are you more
of a positive person, more of a negative person. They have an interview that...
I ain't going to tell you too much about it because I don't want to ruin it. I don't
want you to have to answer all the questions the right way. But here's what
they're trying to figure out. These highly trained individuals have spent a
lot of time with me. They've been in my personal airspace, my home, my events. They
know me and they know who makes a good partner and who doesn't. I'm inviting you
to think. What would a good partner be for you?
What kind of morals do you want them to have? What kind of ethics? How honest do
you want them to be? Because I wish everyone was perfectly honest but that's
also probably not true. That's a great lie. Do you want them to have family
values? Or do you really not care at all? Those are things for you to be thinking about...
When you're considering your partners and... Here I'm telling you about the way I
partner with people so that you can understand. And I want to tell you why.
Here's the story of real estate. We buy a home and let's say we own it for 1,500
days before we sell it. And when we sell it, let's just assume that we make
$70,000 profit. Beyond what the money we put in on it. So, we make $70,000 holding
this home for 1,500 days. You as a partner only had to put in a handful of
hours and when you get the proceeds check and the profits you're saying, "Man,
I freaking feel like I made 5 or 10 or 15 thousand dollars an hour. That
was freaking awesome." I get it. I'm feeling the same way.
But the question is, what happens between day 1 and day 1,500? Because a couple of
things can happen. On any property, at some point during its 3 year 5 years 7
your holding pattern, it's going to have a bad day, okay? It's not going to have PMS as
often as women sometimes get it. But it's going to have it's a moment where you're
thinking, "Oh, this thing's a nightmare." Now, I'm not going to be thinking that. I'm
actually here to help you understand that real estate, you're going to hold it
the first year. It's been cash flowing. The second year its cash flow. And the
third year its cash flowing. Everything goes well until one day, tenant moves out.
There was $8,000 of unexpected repairs on the property. And
maybe it takes three months before it gets re-rented because for whatever
reason, the rental market slowed down. For you, you're having a bad day because
you're brand new and you haven't been trained that this is part of the
business. In fact, this is actually something I anticipate. This is why I set
up what's called a "Sleep well at night." account. More on that later. Essentially, I
know roughly how much pain this property can cause at a given moment. And we
financially fund our business bank account with enough money as a part of
the purchase to be able to handle that. So, we can do what I call sleep well at
night. "Sleep well at night" It's your Swan account, right? This is
where you get your inner peace. But that doesn't mean you're not going to freak out
when that bad day strikes. Well listen. Every partnership is going to have that
day come and when it does, the question is who are you going to be? Are you going to
dig your head in the sand and just disappear from the face of the planet?
Are you going to become irate and angry and frustrated? Real estate for me as a
numbers game. There's no emotion to it other than
feeling excitement for what will eventually happen. Because here's the
rest of the story that usually happens. You got a bad day, you got the money in
the business account, we over fund it. We take care of the problem, we get it
rented, we get it back on track. You're good again. At some point, we're
going to sell that property. And when we get those profits and we disperse them or
hopefully pass them into the next properties, guess what you're going to be
thinking? "Man, that was the best thing I ever did.
Back up 800 days, that was the worst thing I ever did."
Two different statements coming from the same mouth of the same person. Now listen,
I've been through it. I'm preusse in this video because I want you understand that
I'm interested in your mindset if I'm going to partner with you. I'm interested in
your mentality. Because I can afford to be with the right kind of people and
besides, if you remember from the last video I'm saying, "Come out to one of my
events." Maybe multiple. And I want to train you. If I get the chance to not
just partner in real estate but also mentor you, I will teach you to think
like one of the most successful human beings on the planet. I will show you how
to be happy when it's hitting the fan. I will show you how to be positive in a
world of negativity when you're having a bad day. And you will stop having bad
days. Because you're going to determine that it is your perception that determines
everything. And I'm here as your backup to say, "Hey, you could get a little
anxiety, you can get a little stressed. But we're going to do some mentoring on it."
And I hope that what happens is that you choose to change into a more
knowledgeable, wiser person that says, "Hey, Kris is right. I maybe need some faith
and trust in the beginning. But this is actually part of doing a deal. This is a
part of what can and will happen. And we're preparing for it." It Doesn't mean
that we're prepared for everything but between insurance and our Swan accounts.
Friends, we got things covered. Remember, this is not my first rodeo, it's not my
500th rodeo, it's not my thousandth rodeo. I've done this quite a few more times
than that. And I'm going to pass that knowledge and wisdom on to you. Now,
things will happen that will take money out of our pockets where we will lose on
our profits. Profits maybe turn into 40,000 instead of $70,000. I won't tell
you those things can't happen. In fact, I'll tell you that they will. This is
real investing. And the risk is that we have a lot to gain. And we have something
to lose. Fortunately we're not in one of those investments where we can lose
everything or substantial. There's always something
often usually great to gain. So, you need to understand that even in making this
video, I can't make you any guarantees, I can't make you any promises. All I can do
is let my track record of the past speak as we step into an unknown future with
politics and presidents and a world and Technology moving us in places we never
have before. We have our experience level to help us be as prepared as possible.
The question is who are you going to be? Or the partners you select in life, who
are they going to be? Ultimately, I shot this video for one major purpose. I want
you to understand that someone having money and willingness to want a partner
is only half of the equation. The other half of the equation is who are they? And
I'm asking who are you? Whether you're trying to partner it be partnered with.
It's important to invest in yourself. Which is why when people get involved
with me, find me at one of my live events. Make the sacrifice, buy the plane ticket,
get in the car, drive, pay for the hotel and have an experience because each one
of them is designed to be life-changing and more importantly you're making an
investment into you. This real estate between the ears, these five inches, they
are the most critical five inches you will ever invest in. So, if you partner
with me I'm going to ask you to invest in yourself. And I'm also going to make sure
that you're the person I want to invest in.
Anyone can come into the event but not everyone can be my partner. So, friends,
take a hard look at your life and take a hard look at what are your standards. Who
do you want to work with? Me? I want to work with people I like. I want to work
with people I enjoy. And I want to build wealth with people that I like and
people that I enjoy. Set those as standards for yourself as well. Hey
friend, thank you so much for watching this video. If you are considering
partnering, you've got a link in the description where you can take action on
that. Otherwise, the next video, we're going to be talking about entities and
structures and it's like, "Okay if you say we're partnering and putting a business
together, then what kind of business entity is it and how do we actually do
that?"

Our Home Planet - Duration: 35:10.
We're of course celebrating tonight Earth science in general
which really exemplifies the idea that everything at NASA leads, really,
to the ultimate goal of protecting and improving life on Earth.
So I'm going to quickly talk about, kind of, the view of Earth,
and I'm going to talk about a kind of zoom in zoom out, right?
Because for us to understand the Earth we must see it in the broader context.
And of course closest to the Earth are terrestrial planets in our environment
and each one of those planets tells a story.
A story of how a planet can end up with a different destiny.
When we study those planets,
we learn about the processes that shaped the Earth,
about our past, and about our future.
Very similar to the Earth, for example, is Mars.
That started together with the Earth but looks very, very different.
We know now that Mars, of course, was very wet and it lost a lot of the water, and we know now,
from actually one of the Goddard-built spacecraft,
that a lot of the reasons it lost that water is because of
the scavenging from the solar wind,
kind of ripping off, over millions of years,
water out of the atmosphere.
On the surface of Mars, of course we landed with,
you know, Curiosity rover near Gale Crater
and we really went into kind of a beach environment,
with rivers and what used to be lake beds and so forth.
We're learning about this and the amazing landscapes there,
and really thinking about what could be in the future here,
of an Earth where the the Sun gets hotter and hotter, for example,
as we go in kind of astronomical timescales going forward.
When we look at the outside of the solar system, and you already mentioned Cassini,
we're looking at this amazing planet Saturn and its rings, one of the most majestic planets,
just absolutely amazing when you see him in a telescope.
I remember as a kid looking at it, like there it is, you know the rings – it's amazing.
Well what's even more stunning is that there's moons out there, Titan and Enceladus,
that we're now really thinking about in the context of the Earth,
because of the fact that they have oceans
and they spurt out organics, in the case of Enceladus.
Something that gives us an entirely new perspective as to where we should look for life
and how in fact we should do that.
You can zoom back even more and what you look at is a galaxy
and you remember that in that galaxy are billions
and hundreds of billions of stars.
Well how many of them are like the Earth?
I remember when I did my Ph.D. in '96,
ah we thought well perhaps there's planets —
you know '96 is one year after '95, for those of us geeks.
Like you said, '95 is the time the first extrasolar planet was announced.
So we thought, well perhaps 10% of these stars
may or may not have planets,
perhaps even less. Well... oh no.
There's well, many, many more of those now.
And this next thing is just one example that we actually discovered with Spitzer
where we basically have a small star with seven planets going around it.
This is Spitzer following up on a ground-based observation.
Three of those, we think, are in the habitable zone
based on just a distance and temperature of the host star.
We now know, based on Kepler and other observations, that
it's very common to have planets.
Every average star will have a planet.
Many of them will have Earth-like planets.
So it's an abundance of Earth-like planets,
potential Earth-like planets here.
But we have one home
and that home was recently visited
by a spacecraft also led out of Goddard, OSIRIS-Rex –
it's actually on the way to a little body out there
that it's gonna collect matter with,
Bennu, and bringing it back.
But when it flew by Earth it took this picture
and it reminded us that, you know,
coming from this deep space, coming to Earth,
how beautiful our planet really is
but also how fragile that planet is, as we're living on it.
It reminds us all these stories,
I think many of us were in Australia when they flew overhead
some of us were in California, there at the top of the picture,
and that's really kind of zooming back in
and you know the talks will be zoomming into our beautiful planet
that is such an important planet and subject
very worthy of our study and full attention.
So with that I want to introduce
Marshall Shepherd, our next speaker.
And of course Dr. Marshall Shepherd
is a leading international expert in weather and climate
[ audience chuckles ]
and is the Georgia Athletic -- you like that picture, right? --
[ audience chuckles ]
the Georgia Athletic Association Distinguished Professor.
That means,
in kind-of academic-speak
the best of the best type of professor
at the University of Georgia
and you're also an Associate Department Head, of course.
You were 2013 president of the American Meteorological Society,
the nation's largest and oldest professional
science society in atmospheric and related sciences,
and prior to the University of Georgia, Dr. Shephard spent 12 years as a
researcher at NASA Goddard
and was the deputy project scientist of GPM.
It's actually that mission
that helped make predictions for the very storms that
were going over the house of my father-in-law,
and you know for me this is really personal,
when I look at these missions now,
of course them being in our portfolio,
but them affecting our lives in a direct fashion,
he's safe, in part because of these predictions
that came from that mission
that you were directly working with, Marshall.
I also want to say that of course
Dr. Shepherd received his BS, MS, and PhD
in meteorology at the Florida State University and he was the first
African-American to receive a PhD from
Florida State University Department of Meteorology,
one of the nation's oldest and most respected.
I'm just excited to welcome you, Marshall.
[ applause ]
Thank you, and good evening. Now go far enough into space
and Earth looks like any other star or planet in our night sky.
But of course we know it's not.
Ccome closer and we see a planet bursting with color.
It's bursting with life.
It's covered by just the right amount of ocean,
just the right amount of forested continents.
It's protected by a dynamic yet thin atmosphere that roils with weather and storms.
Now we understand the cosmic odds that allow us to carve out our lives here on Earth.
Yet there is so much more to learn about our home planet.
The world gets more populated more complicated every day.
How are we going to improve life on Earth?
How are we going to safeguard this planet?
Who is going to lead the continuing discovery on Earth?
As Thomas showed us, NASA's exploration of our solar system and deep space is taking us
closer than ever to planets than before.
But that view from space is also vital
to understanding the most complex planet we know.
Earth.
To take on Earth's challenges, we need not only the vantage point of space,
but we also need the technology, grit, and quest for discovery that we use to explore the universe as only NASA can.
Now it's important to note here that Earth Science has been at the core of NASA's mission since the beginning.
Let's take a look at the Space Act that created NASA.
It talks about "for the benefit of all mankind."
It talks about advanced knowledge of Earth's atmosphere,
the preservation of the role of the United States as a leader.
Now tonight I'm going to talk about things from a hurricane perspective.
We want to share with you a few stories of how NASA is leading
the planetary exploration of Earth
and continuing to provide return on investment to every US citizen.
In particular we want to take a look inside the complex world of water.
Sometimes there's too much, sometimes there's not enough.
So let's pivot now to talk about the hurricane season of 2017.
And by the way, as we speak there's a hurricane possibly developing
down in the Caribbean that will affect the Gulf of Mexico and Gulf states later this weekend.
Now 2017 has been an extraordinary season.
Hurricane Harvey was the first major hurricane to make landfall in the U.S. in over 12 years.
The iPhone and Twitter weren't around then.
It was also the most significant rainfall event in US history.
Hurricane Irma remained a category 5 hurricane longer than any storm on record in the Atlantic.
And of course, Hurricane Maria:
rapid intensification, power, humanitarian crisis.
Now look, I'm a meteorologist
and if you follow me on social media or read some of the contributions I write for Forbes,
many of us knew that these storms were going to do what they did
and that's really tough
as someone that has knowledge to see that happening.
But there is, I guess, a bright side
because we know that science has allowed us
to advance knowledge,
predict these storms, and possibly save lives.
Now this hurricane season I want to highlight two stories.
One, with each of the three major storms that I've talked about
we can see, even in that glimmer of despair, a success story
where the view from space has improved our ability to forecast or respond to hurricanes.
And the second storyline is that we saw three major storms
that highlighted absolutely fundamental questions
that NASA is trying to answer about hurricanes and how they work.
And I'll get to those critical questions in a moment.
But first let me acknowledge our partners.
NASA is a research and development agency
pushing the envelope on technology and new knowledge generation.
We work very closely with our partners at NOAA, the USGS, other federal agencies,
and in collaboration with many of our industry partners that are here in the room tonight.
That partnership and collaboration is critical to everything that you're going to see tonight.
And so we thank everyone that's represented here from those various entities.
GOES-16 will soon move to become GOES-East in its operational orbit parking.
GOES-S launches next spring
and JPSS-1, our polar orbiting satellite system, launches next month.
They're all a result of partnerships between NASA, NOAA, and industry.
Now let's talk about some of those success stories that I mentioned earlier.
Hurricane Harvey's rainfall:
now, as a meteorologist when I was looking at the forecast models
and I saw them saying three to five feet of rain,
I couldn't believe it.
I literally couldn't believe it. But they were right.
Days out, they were right.
This is a testament to decades of advancement.
This information from these satellites and from advanced models are saving lives.
Let's take a look at Hurricane Irma's track forecast.
This is five days before Hurricane Irma made landfall.
Watch the lines:
the forecasts were spot-on five days out.
Now yes there was a little wiggling back and forth as it neared Florida, but
where we are in meteorology, this was an amazing forecast.
And science got us there.
Now some ways that you might not think of,
and you heard Chris mention this earlier,
Puerto Rico: Maria knocked out power all across that island.
What you're looking at here is a brand-new NASA capability
that gave first responders block-by-block detail
of where power went out.
It is produced by scientists at NASA Goddard and NASA Marshall.
It combines nighttime data from the Suomi NPP satellite
with four other types of satellite data
and the result is a high-definition view of night lights
before and after Maria.
Look at the streets and city blocks that you can see.
But here's what's more important to citizens
particularly our citizens in Puerto Rico.
This map you're looking at was put directly in the hands of FEMA
and the National Guard last week
directly in their hands
so that they can map out a response strategy.
The first time this satellite data product has been provided to first responders.
Now let me pivot back to those research questions.
The science is helping us understand them, and there's still many challenges ahead,
but NASA is there, and our partners are there.
Let's go back to Harvey's rainfall. The volume of rain raises questions.
Are severe storms more likely to produce more rainfall in the future?
NASA is in a better position to help figure that question out.
In 2014, NASA, in partnership with the Japanese space agency, JAXA,
launched the Global Precipitation Measurement Core Observatory, GPM.
Now this is the most advanced orbiting rainfall measurement system ever conceived.
NASA is coordinating and fine-tuning rainfall measurements like never before.
The core satellite has a radar and passive microwave imager
that helps calibrate a constellation of satellites, ten of them,
to produce unprecedented global rainfall maps, around the world.
That's weather, folks, that you're seeing, manifested in rainfall.
And at that scale that GPM can provide, not only does it provide science,
we can help with landslides, flooding, and other things that affect society.
That's US leadership.
Now we've heard questions about whether extreme rainfall events are going to increase,
the physics of a warmer atmosphere
leading to more moisture in the atmosphere,
more big rain events.
In other words, what's the weather going to be like
in the 21st century going forward?
These are questions of the day that scientists will address
and GPM will be there to help.
But rainfall from Harvey was not the only hallmark of this season.
Let's go back and take another look at that Irma track
and what you'll see -
look at those warm ocean waters that Irma had to tap into,
but look inside the little hurricane symbol you'll see a number.
And what I want to show here is that Hurricane Irma was a category 5 storm
longer than any storm that we've seen on record in the Atlantic.
Category 5 storm.
What made the storm so strong and for so long?
Well as you saw, lots of ocean heat content
that NASA satellites can provide information for,
and some NOAA satellites as well.
This takes us to our second fundamental question:
how will warm ocean waters affect hurricane intensity?
And here I need to focus on Hurricane Maria.
Maria was a storm that went from a category 1 to a category 5 storm
in less than 24 hours in September.
Less than 24 hours.
That's rapid intensification
and those of us in my field know that that remains
one of the grand challenges of meteorology
because we've gotten track forecasts
to be pretty good over the last several decades,
but intensity is a challenge.
Why do we get this rapid intensification?
And that's been a theme of the hurricane season this year, by the way.
GPM again can help.
We can pop the hood on these storms.
What do I mean by that? I like to think of hurricanes as like large heat engines.
And when you see hurricanes with traditional satellites,
you're often looking at the clouds.
But as you're going to see in a moment with Maria,
we can now take this satellite data
and we can peer inside the hurricane
and look at the thunderstorms in the eye wall and rain band.
Well if my wife were sitting here right now she'd say, "so what."
She's just - that's the way she is –
[ laughter ]
but the reality is there is a huge "so what,"
because when we can see these thunderstorms
developing and growing in the eyewall and rain band
they're showing the heat release that powers this engine
and that may very well be a clue
that will help us with intensity forecasts.
But it's not just satellite data.
The Global Hawk,
suborbital platforms, aircraft
are also providing unique views
and many of these capabilities provided by NASA
and our other partners in the industry.
And I can't not talk about the performance of our forecast models.
Take a look at this model that shows the track of Hurricane Sandy.
Studies have shown that if satellite data
were removed from the models,
we would not have seen that Hurricane Sandy was going to make a left turn
into New Jersey and New York nine days ahead of time.
The satellite data is being ingested into the models.
Now, this last science question is dear to my heart
because it's some of my own research that's sponsored by NASA.
There is something called the "brown ocean."
You might think that storms weaken when they move over land,
but we found something different.
Take a look at this image.
You're seeing soil moisture from SMAP and other things.
The red represents dry soil over Texas and Oklahoma
and look what you see, rainfall over several weeks to months.
Now watch that change over to blue in Texas
that means the soil is getting wetter, it's moistening up.
Here comes Tropical Storm Bill,
moves over that wet soil,
and maintains its strength. It actually even intensified.
The "brown ocean" was feeding the storm
just like the ocean would. That wet soil,
that's the "brown ocean."
Now I'd like to introduce Dr. Christa Peters-Lidard.
She's a hydrologist at NASA's Goddard Space Flight Center.
Christa has developed hydrological models of the water cycle
that have been widely adopted by the US Air Force weather agency,
NOAA,
and the US Agency for International Development
as critical components for their forecasting systems.
Christa currently serves as a Deputy Director of NASA Goddard's Earth Science Division
where she oversees five of the thirteen Goddard Earth science laboratories.
She is a Fellow of the American Meteorological Society
and has been awarded the Arthur S. Fleming medal
given to outstanding federal employees.
She's also a friend and a colleague.
[ applause ]
Since NASA was created nearly six decades ago,
this agency and the larger science community
has essentially discovered how the Earth works
as an interconnected system,
as a planet,
and we are still discovering.
NASA is converting the space-based view of Earth
into a pixel-level planetary intelligence system
for navigating the challenges of the 21st century.
One of those challenges is coping with drought.
California, 2015.
One of the most productive agricultural markets in the world was wracked
by a fourth year of drought.
Wildfires burned,
crops wilted,
reservoirs plummeted to half of historical averages.
But how did this drought spread? How pervasive was it?
From space we track water in the ground,
whether it's a centimeter, a meter,
or a kilometer below the surface.
Let's start with the big picture.
Around the world the GRACE satellites,
which is a partnership between NASA and the German Space Agency,
have provided unprecedented views
of water storage and natural aquifers.
These underground reserves are so massive
that they affect the Earth's gravity field.
And when their mass changes,
the satellites detect the change in gravity.
Droughts affect deep groundwater stores.
In fact, water users can pump
hundreds of billions of gallons out of their aquifers
to compensate for the lack of rainfall.
And GRACE detects this change.
This view from space has revolutionized our understanding
of water stored beneath the Earth's surface.
But scientists at NASA Goddard can provide a more detailed view
of conditions in the continental US by
combining GRACE data with sophisticated computer models.
These computer models help us decompose the GRACE signal
into the surface, root zone, and shallow groundwater.
And this view can help trigger critical water conservation measures.
Stations on the ground provide a connect-the-dots picture
but the vantage point from space, combined with modeling,
provides a comprehensive view of the California drought:
how it evolved over time, and ultimately ended.
This constantly changing snapshot of shallow groundwater conditions
is now used every week in the US Drought Monitor.
This is the benchmark relied upon by decision-makers
at the local, state, and federal levels.
So GRACE gives us a global view,
and the combination of satellites and modeling gives us a regional view,
but what if I want to know what's happening in a 30 by 30-meter plot of land,
the size of a Landsat pixel?
California's wine industry
provides tens of thousands of jobs,
pays seventeen billion dollars in wages every year,
and is built on intensive agricultural practices.
It is also at the forefront of using the view from space
to save water and be more efficient.
The E&J Gallo company grows grapes
on a hundred thousand acres across California.
Nick Dokoozlian, the company's head of viticulture, said
that during the drought "we were farming on a fine line.
The model went from commercialization to survival."
They use Landsat which is a joint program of NASA and USGS
to monitor water use and the health of their vines.
With constant care, and a decade's long record of data,
their irrigation strategy was modified,
and the vines made it through.
Not only that, but water usage was cut in half on some acres.
The company uses commercial satellite data, too,
but as Dokoozlian said,
"Landsat is the most robust form of imagery across the state. We trust it more."
In fact the company is moving to a system of irrigation
that is mapped according to 30 by 30-meter Landsat pixels.
Working with IBM and an irrigation company called Netafim,
Gallo is developing what they call "farming by pixel."
Taking the foundational data from Landsat
and converting it into drip by drip irrigation decisions.
The company is also talking with its neighbors,
the water intensive almond growers,
about the possibilities for their industry.
This kind of approach would revolutionize the way people irrigate
across the state of California,
where, by the way,
agriculture brings in receipts of 50 billion dollars per year.
So the next time you enjoy a glass of wine, or some almonds,
you might want to offer a toast to Landsat and to GRACE.
[ clapping ]
So California survived its historic drought,
and the public and the private sectors are now retooling
their long-term plans for managing water.
And the view from space will help lead the way.
The drought recovery took years
helped in part by massive storms that stretched across the Pacific this winter and spring
and El Niño driven rain and snow in the years before that.
But while the local El Niño impact was beneficial
it also reminded us of why we study the Earth as an interconnected system.
When a giant swell of warm water emerged in the Pacific Ocean in 2015,
scientists knew to look for impacts.
As El Niño changed the global weather patterns,
Southern Africa went into a severe drought.
On top of already dry conditions, the region experienced its
lowest rainfall in 35 years.
With the SMAP mission, launched in 2015,
NASA has dedicated soil moisture measurements for the first time,
and SMAP could see the severe drought emerging.
SMAP's highly sensitive microwave radiometer detects the energy
emitted by the soil, depending on how wet or how dry it is.
It's like the old gardener's trick;
you squeeze a handful of dirt and you see if it clumps up or if it falls apart.
Think of SMAP as doing the same thing
with a lot more precision, all around the world, every three days.
SMAP allowed us to see the connection between the Pacific Ocean water temperatures
and the moisture in the soil in southern Africa.
But like with the data in California,
these measurements are now being put to operational use more than ever.
SMAP's data was fed into the USDA's global crop yield forecasts,
the Foreign Agriculture Service reports that help drive
multibillion-dollar commodity markets around the world.
In fact, the scientists for this region said that with SMAP,
they now have the first reliable soil moisture data in 30 years.
As the soils dried out
we also used the Terra and the Aqua satellites
to assess the impact on vegetation across the countries of southern Africa.
These NASA soil moisture and vegetation analyses
were also fed into a USAID program
called the Famine Early Warning Systems Network.
As this drought spread,
nearly 30 million people were at risk of drastic food shortages.
Four out of ten people did not have access to clean drinking water
The global view provided by NASA scientists helped inform USAID decisions
about where the agency should send help.
In southern Africa, in 2015 and 2016,
USAID delivered nearly 350 million dollars of emergency water and food aid
to millions of people.
Our planet's population hit seven billion people in
2011 and we will likely hit 8 billion in the next decade.
We are more dependent than ever on our global food system
at a time when we expect droughts like the ones you've seen tonight,
to happen more frequently, with more severity,
for longer periods of time.
The challenge is not only feeding a billion people
but minimizing conflict.
The defense and intelligence communities have named the
increased likelihood of conflict due to food and water shortages
as one of the key threat multipliers they are watching in the 21st century.
Water drives life,
and the global agriculture system that depends on it.
If we want to know and predict what's happening with agriculture locally,
we have to understand this system globally.
And now, to bring us home, here's Marshall.
[ clapping ]
Well, there they are.
They can't ever say they haven't been on a big screen.
[ laughter ]
Those are my kids,
and hopefully tonight you see that
this is not about pretty pictures from satellites.
These are about narratives of society.
It's about their generation and future generations to come.
The bottom line is this for me:
there is no plan B planet, for them or us.
Now Christa and I have shown you several in depth stories about water,
and really only a fraction of the water cycle.
Now keep in mind that NASA is applying the
same intensity of monitoring and research
to answer key questions about other facets of the Earth's system.
For example, what are the trends with the world's ice sheets and glaciers,
and what does that mean for our coastlines in the future?
What do the ongoing changes to the Arctic sea ice mean for the region?
Next year NASA launches the GRACE Follow-On and ICESat-2,
representing major refreshes of our ice and water monitoring capabilities.
And this is important because in order to detect change
we need to see trends, long-term trends.
How is life on land and in the ocean changing around the globe?
How is carbon moving through the air and ocean and land?
And then what does this mean for our future climate?
The coming launches of Landsat 9 and the GEDI lidar
to the International Space Station will advance these investigations.
How will clouds and aerosols respond to, and affect changes, in the Earth's system?
This remains one of the biggest question marks about our climate system.
And there are questions. That's why we as scientists do what we do.
These questions aren't just scientific mysteries.
Together they add up to a larger question of habitability on the planet.
But there is good news.
The good news is that science has tackled these types of challenges before.
Just last month marked the 30th anniversary of the Montreal Protocol,
an international agreement struck within years of science identifying a crisis:
the ozone hole, which you see here.
Now, note that the blue represents depleted ozone.
That's the ozone hole over the Antarctic region.
It would have never been possible without NASA's confirmation from space
of the size and persistence of that hole.
Now let's walk through a world-avoided simulation,
just to kind of bring home the value of understanding that
that ozone hole was there
and doing something about it.
On the left is the world with the Montreal Protocol.
On the right is what the world's ozone layer would look like
in the northern hemisphere
if we didn't pass the Montreal Protocol.
And keep in mind that blue represents depleted ozone.
Watch what happens as we approach the year 2017,
the year that we're in.
Here at the latitude that we are,
if we didn't pass the Montreal Protocol
we would have about 10% more ozone depletion
or 10% more increases, if you will,
in the damaging UV radiation.
Now UV radiation damages our skin, first of all it's a health issue,
and crops that we depend on for food.
So science has risen to the challenge before,
and as challenges mount, will need to again.
But choosing to cast our lot with science is really choosing to put our faith in people.
Yes, we face enormous challenges in the years and decades ahead,
as we push science and society to understand
and manage the resources of our home planet.
There is no better partnership than the one that we see between NASA,
NOAA,
USGS,
other federal agencies
and the vital collaborations with industry partners,
many of which are represented in this room tonight.
This partnership will lead the way
into the 21st century
with optimism that we can solve these challenges together.
Our work has just begun.
Thank you.

Instant Lucid Dreams! - Duration: 1:30.
The internet is full of people offering "instant", "quick", or "easy" lucid dreams.
Indeed, the fact that you've clicked on this video suggests that you may still consider
this a possibility.
However, lucid dreaming is a complex skill, similar in many ways to learning a new language
or a musical instrument.
Sadly, there are no shortcuts to these skills, nor are there any quick-fixes for lucid dream
training.
While it is certainly possible to induce a lucid dream after a short period of training,
absolutely no devices, techniques, pills, audio recordings or any other product can
side-step the time and skills needed to be a proficient and regular lucid dreamer.
So, when you see people selling short-cuts or come across anything that sounds too good
to be true - remember it almost certainly is.
Lucid dreaming is an amazing and profound skill and is well worth investing
the time and effort to achieve.
So avoid trying to cut corners, and throw yourself wholeheartedly into learning the
wonders of lucid dreaming.

Unboxing the World's Largest Lizard - Duration: 2:15.
- The philosophy in our collection
has always been that the specimens are here to be used.
So every animal will eventually find a purpose here.
I'm Alan Resetar, McCarter Collections Manager
in the Amphibian and Reptile Collection
at Field Museum.
We are gonna be unboxing the Komodo dragons today.
The Komodo dragon is the world's largest lizard.
It's not the world's longest lizard,
but the Komodo is the largest.
Our Komodo dragons are kept
in this specially custom-made, stainless steel tank,
which is over 100 gallons.
And a Komodo dragon about this size would weigh about
oh, maybe about 125 pounds.
His organs were removed when he was necropsied at the zoo,
so he's a little bit lighter, but he's still pretty heavy.
Almost all of our 300,000 specimens
in the collection are in 70% ethanol.
So essentially, what we do is buy Everclear.
The same product you can buy at the liquor store.
We purchase it in 55-gallon drums.
And being a museum, we can apply for a special permit
so we don't have to pay the liquor tax on it.
So that saves us a little money.
The specimens are here for scientific research.
So they're here to be shared
with students and researchers from all over the world.
They don't come out as often as I'd like.
They were here probably about 18 years
before somebody conducted
the first research project on them.
But the animals are here forever.
I mean, our goal is to keep them for hundreds of years.
Even though a specimen may sit here a couple decades,
all of a sudden there might be a research interest in them.
You know, we can move this,
we just make sure that nobody's in a empty aisle.
I almost crushed a guy from Argentina one time.
(laughs)

So let's discuss together
How about Dung ?
In my opinion
Being a boss is not an easy job
and being a good boss is even more difficult.
A good manager is the basic of every successful work.
A good boss required many characteristics such as:
good leader, good communicator
First of all, when you asked anyone,

They can also review the policy issues
plan long-term, set goals and and identify priorities
It's necessary for any organization nowaday.
And Khang, What is the most important skill to become a good manager ?
I think communication is the most important skill
because as a leader, you need to be able to clearly explain to your employees
everything from organizational goals to specific tasks.
Finally, There are 10 leadership skills
They are Communication, motivation, Delegating,
Positivity, trustworthiness, Creativity, feedback ,

How to Improve Your Drawings: An Outline With Character - Duration: 3:14.
Hello my friends and welcome to another Tuesday of tutorial!
I am Leonardo Pereznieto and today I will want to give you some simple
tips, so that the quality of your line helps you
define the lighting and the volume of the objects,
and in this way that your art becomes richer.
We begin by lightly sketching the head and the neck, we will do a sitting figure
seen from the back.
This time we will pay especial attention on your stroke, on your mark.
Try to make your lines smooth and in one go. Avoid double
or scratchy lines.
As you see, I am doing the sketch pretty much in the same intensity
which is fairly light.
At this stage we make any corrections as needed, like on the leg and the position
of the neck.
That's better!
Once I am happy with the sketch, I go back and give more intensity to some
lines.
The light is coming from the top left
so all the surfaces that are facing the top left, will be a lot lighter and
as they turn away from the light they will be darker and darker.
So we leave the upper part of the legs light, but the lower we make it darker.
The line can be darker and wider as well.
While the ones in the light will be lighter and thinner, so much
that sometimes we can even lose them.
All the way down here, it is not only the farther place from the light
but also, it is where the body rests on the ground.
There, we may have an accent, that is the darkest spot.
Can you see how we start having some indication of the lighting and
the volume, just by doing the outline?
I think this is a really great technique that most artists do not know
or do not apply.
I reinforce just a little bit more the this accent and then as a detail
let's also place the backbone.
Very lightly so, just an indication.
So, it is very important that you have clean lines,
not scratchy, and that you vary the thickness and darkness of them
to make your drawings richer.
Very good. It´s ready!
If you enjoyed it please give it a LIKE! let me know what do you think
of this technique and subscribe to Fine Art-Tips.
And I will see you on Tuesday ;)

Man Utd chief Ed Woodward gives transfer hint with club announcement - Duration: 3:00.
Woodward spoke today to underlined United's hunger for silverware after the club announced record-breaking revenues and an eye-watering wage bill pushing £300million
Manchester United are top of the Deloitte Football Money League for two successive years and today announced record revenues in excess of half a billion pounds for the third consecutive financial year
The club brought in £590m in the year ending 30 June 2018 - a rise of just 1.5 per cent on the previous year - but the expectation is for revenue to rise to between £615m and £630m over the coming financial year
Executive vice-chairman Woodward believes that will help aid United's quest for trophies, with the huge wage bill of £295
9m surely going to increase as a result. And - Woodward hinted - that could mean more signings too with pans to continue to play youngsters alongside 'world class player' "Everyone at the club is working tirelessly to add to Manchester United's 66 and Jose's 25 trophies," Woodward said
"That is what our passionate fans and our history demands. "We are committed to our philosophy of blending top academy graduates with world class players and are proud that, once again, last season we had more academy graduate minutes on the pitch than any other Premier League club
"Our increased revenue expectation for the year demonstrates our continued strong long-term financial performance which underpins everything we do and allows us to compete for top talent in an increasingly competitive transfer market
" United's revenue is substantially higher than the £500.5m posted by rivals Manchester City, although they also pay significantly more in wages than the Premier League winners' £259
6m. The annual accounts reveal that the Old Trafford giants paid employees £295.9m in fiscal 2018 - a hike of £32
4million over the prior year. United say the increase is "primarily due to player salary uplifts related to participation in the UEFA Champions League" - but Alexis Sanchez's January arrival will also have made an impact
United saw operating profits drop by 45.4 per cent to £44.1m. That was largely due to the United States' federal corporate income tax rate being reduced from 35 per cent to 21 per cent
Net debt rose 19.1 per cent to £253.7m, which the club say is predominantly down to exchange rate fluctuations
United achieved earnings of £177.1m before interest, tax, depreciation and amortisation - down from a record £199
8m in 2017.

brown spots discoloration all of those nasty side-effects of staying in the Sun
now UVB rays which you are protected against with this broad-spectrum SPF are
those UV burning rays those are those rays that just settle on the skin and
give you that superficial burn that redness that peeling what is the Sun
thinking now this UV essence is a part of Claire's very popular freshly juiced
vitamin drop line you do get 80 milliliters of sunscreen in here which I
really love it's actually a giant size for sunscreen because sometimes you
order some of those specialty sunscreens and they come in like a little tiny
package and you're like it this is not gonna cover my face at all so I'm glad
that you get a full 80 mils and it retails for 23 US dollars awesome price
so I'm just gonna apply a little bit to my fingertips here and we're gonna apply
it all over the skin and you guys are going to see the magic that is this soft
Airy UV essence now I'm not sparing I'm using a lot on here I'm going for full
sun protection you guys wait I'm going to apply this all over the skin this is
totally a gel texture I can definitely see why they named it an essence it's
almost like a really light moisturizer I mean okay you guys you can see here it
is just absorbing directly into the skin I'm actually gonna pull you in a little
bit closer so you guys can take a closer look okay guys here we are look at this
this is a sunscreen with an SPF of 50 plus full protection broad-spectrum zero
white cast sinking right into my skin so easily I mean this is literally shocking
to get this on the North American market to find this so easily is shocking
I am absolutely astounded the fact that this is non-greasy with a zero white
cast I just keep looking in the monitor because I am shocked like seriously you
guys oh my gosh is this not like magic you just watched a sunscreen sink
directly into my skin in the matter of seconds with a zero white cast zero
greasiness you could apply makeup so easily overtop of this like it is so
shocking to me I don't even know what to say
you guys I am actually just lost for words as you guys can see there is zero
white cast that this formula is non-greasy I have tried it out for a
full week at this point I just wanted to make sure that my skin didn't break out
even up close in my mirror here my little Pink Panther mirror there is ZERO
heaviness to my skin my skin looks light refreshed there's some sunscreens out
there that when you put them on they feel really heavy and sticky this is
definitely not one of them this feels so light and airy airy UV essence this
actually fits the name to a tea and I can't forget that another really important
factor of this SPF is it's actually vegan friendly I know that's so
important to so many of you guys out there that your skin care products and
beauty products are vegan friendly and this SPF definitely is so check that off
in the Box are guys so let's do a little wear test it is about 10 after 12:00 at
this point or just around noon I'm gonna come up and run some errands I'm gonna
leave this on my skin for the full two hours before you should do the
reapplication and we'll touch base then to finish up this video I'll let you
guys see how the formula develops if it's greasy or not if there's a white
cast that develops or just how my skin looks and around the two-hour mark I'll
see you guys then alright guys it's actually been a little bit later than I
thought to do a check-in it's around 3:30 so it's actually about three and a
half hours since I last applied the sunscreen I mean guys the proof is in my
pudding look the proof is in my pudding the proof is in the pudding check out my
skin you guys it is it non-greasy there's definitely no white cast I'm
just gonna go ahead and say it I think this is the best sunscreen I have ever
used I know I've only been using it for a week but like you guys define a
lightweight non-greasy no white cast sunscreen you guys know how crazy I am
with sun protection and sometimes when you just find a product I just know that
this product is going to be at one of my Holy Grail skin care products I have not
been this excited about a single skincare product in a long time Klairs
you did a great job with this soft Airy UV essence I mean everything from the
SPF 50 oh I actually forget to tell you guys I think I've had to mention earlier
in the video this is an SPF 50 plus PA + + + + sunscreen so here in
North America were already familiar with the SPF system but the PA+ system
was a system in Japan represents the protection
or the coverage of UVA or UV aging so anything that's gonna cause a
discoloration at brown spots dark spots the PA plus system represents how well
you're going to be covered against UVA and this is a PA ++++
four pluses so you're not only getting the SPF 50 broad-spectrum but you're
also getting a PA 4 plus coverage I mean it's just too good to be true so like I
said this sunscreen retails for twenty three dollars I'll have it linked in the
description box it down below honestly for 20 bucks I mean this is an awesome
skin care product you guys so I think I'm just gonna leave this video just
like that I mean there's nothing left to say
check out my skin you guys this is an awesome sunscreen I definitely recommend
that you pick it up if you've tried Klairs soft Airy UV essence to let
me know the comments down below and if you want to keep hanging out between our
next video you can always watch more right here I have over 150 other videos
that you guys can watch let's hang out all night long if you made it to the end
of this video you know that I love and appreciate you so so much until the next
video guys I can't wait to see you then bye guys

Karen is Unemployed | Karen Murray - Duration: 2:54.
Huh...
I made my job disappear!
I made my job disappear.
Ahhhhh..... scream, scream, pandamonium, ahhhhhh.
I have to admit: quitting my job has been great.
No responsibilities, nobody to answer to.
And sure, there's that pesky issue of how I'm gonna earn money and pay rent and bills.
But life is great!
I'm finally done with holding myself back and chasing after what it is I want instead
of tying myself down to a job that makes me unhappy because it's not what I wanna do in
life.
And yeah, life is scary and unpredictable right now and absolutely none of my goals
or plans are working out, but I've got all the time in the world now to make my dreams
come true even if most of that time is spent on twitter.
Oh snap, it's time to go to work.
Yeah, nope.
Still unemployed.

Debbie Bliss' Story #whyiknit | LoveKnitting - Duration: 1:48.
I started off as a machine knitter
and then when I went back to hand knitting
there was just something about creating it on needles, about taking time to do it,
I found that really compelling.
And there is something about historically knowing
that this is a tradition that is being
passed down, but I also find that
I'm part of the history of a craft too and that's really special.
There's so many different stages to what I do,
from the initial sketch that might be on a paper napkin in a fish and chip shop,
to going out into the world and that's a kind of mixture of joy and apprehension
because it's your baby.
I really like simplicity in design, clean lines
but with a little bit of subtle shaping.
I'm almost obsessive I have to say about
designing things for women to wear that they feel comfortable in,
and also that flatters their silhouette.
Every time I do a design I knit a swatch first,
one - to see if I can get the blend of colours right
if it's a fair isle, if it's texture
just to make sure I find it satisfying and it works.
But what I started to do a few years ago is,
sew some of them into a blanket because I realised that
some of them go back thirty years so it's my own comfort blanket,
but it's like my knitting history as well.
One of the nice things about meeting people that knitted some of my designs is,
they quite often changed it slightly
it might be the colours and they're always slightly
apologetic and I go "that's great! I love it!"
and sometimes I look at something I'll go "hmm, I probably should have done that myself in the first place".
I love knitting for people I love
and I love seeing them wear it and
that's why I knit.

World Equestrian Games | Equine Laser Therapy for Pain and Blue Light for Infections - Duration: 3:57.
I'm with Ann Marie Nagle, she came by here at the World Equestrian Games (WEG)
and she started telling people right off the bat
how much she loves her laser.
Why did you love our laser?
And you have the ACTIVet PRO?
I have the ACTIVet PRO series.
I bought it basically because I saw
all the different things you can heal and I am
not a wealthy person so it saves me a lot of money. I mean
like even before I came to WEG,
I had a young horse, he stepped on the edge of his coronet band
and busted it open, he was pretty sure he was dying.
I pulled up the equine severe pain setting, I set it on that,
and by the afternoon he was pretty sure he was fine again.
I mean he was actually acting like he had a broken bone
because he was non-weight bearing, but I knew it was fine.
I use it for fungus. We travel to Florida so we fight a lot of that.
So I can do it without meds.
I like to be as natural as I can,
so I use bute when I need to but I like to try to stay away from it
and let the body heal itself.
Right, and there are no side effects with laser
so that plays right into what you want.
Right, and a lot of people think, oh, it's a laser, it burns.
No, it doesn't burn, the technology is incredible, it's fast.
You have to be a little careful with the blue light the first time,
you could scare a horse if they see it flash in the stall,
but once they get used to it they actually are like
yeah, could you come on back with that.
I use it if I know a horse worked really hard that day.
I just do the general 1000-3000 Hz setting
for 15 minutes just across the top line.
It's like acupuncture without sticking them with needles.
And it's approved, so I can take it to any horse show and use it
No FEI restrictions, and in fact, ours are FEI certified
and being used in the treatment barns right now.
Right. And I have healed some very, very nasty things
that I even looked at and they were infected and I was like
ugh, I don't know if I can do this because the drain opened on top
and it just draws it out.
And then when you do 50-250 Hz settings,
it closes everything over really nice like a liquid bandage.
So you're saying that blue light has been very effective against infections?
Oh my goodness, yeah, to be truthfully honest
I wouldn't own one without the blue light setting.
And this is the only laser with that,
and I love the fact that it has a 50% and a 100% setting
because you can really determine how aggressive you want to be.
Well it sounds like you recommend our laser!
I'll tell you what, every barn should actually have one.
We agree! Thank you very much.
Ann Marie Nagle is from Ohio, in Columbus.
Columbus, and I travel to Florida in the winter so when you travel with a horse,
you know, they pick up stuff right away.
And how do you like the portability?
I do like the portability and hand strap that you offer
for the young horses is awesome because sometimes
when they lift their legs it can get knocked out.
But also it's very sturdy,
long as you take care of your lenses and don't scratch them up,
it's really dummy-proof.
Great, and how long have you had yours?
Almost 2 years.
You can give it to your grooms and as long as you
teach them to take care of it, they can easily use it
because of the CAN settings. I love the equine and companion CAN settings,
those are invaluable.
Once you become really familiar with it,
then you can use the PRO settings and all those and really dig deep.
But the CAN settings are great for beginners.
And how important is the safety aspect to you,
knowing that there's no liability and it can't hurt anybody?
Oh, I mean, that was like foremost.

Sprint Zero | Angela Johnson - Duration: 1:53.
Hi. I'm Angela Johnson, Certified Scrum Trainer and Agile Transformation Coach
with Collaborative Leadership Team.
Today, I want to talk to you about something that people think sounds like a good idea,
when in actuality , it's an anti-pattern. I'm talking about Sprint Zero. That's right.
Why do people make up this thing called Sprint Zero?
I maintain because it actually delivers zero value.
No, seriously, it's just comfort.
It's just muscle memory kicking in from our old way of doing work,
which involved big up-front planning.
We're not doing that anymore.
When you make things up like Sprint Zero, it does two things.
Firstly, it confuses people because the definition of a sprint is to produce something that's
potentially shippable. Something that's potentially releasable to the end-user.
Something that can be used in the way of a product, a service, so we're back to Sprint
Zero delivering zero value and you've confused people with the vocabulary.
Secondly, it prevents real change.
Scrum means doing work differently.
When you just use Scrummy language to talk about something that
you've always done like big, up-front planning.
Once again, it prevents you from delivering that business value faster.

Perfection vs Consistency | Agile Planning | Christian Antoine - Duration: 2:44.
Hi. I'm Christian Antoine.
I'm an Agile trainer and transformational coach with the Collaborative Leadership Team.
When I'm training folks on agility, sometimes I can see people get concerned about this
wanting to be perfect.
When they learn what I'm about to tell you, it seems to settle them down.
Agile does not seek perfection.
We cannot obtain perfection nor does it tell us that we think we can predict the future.
What Agile is trying to get us to be is consistent, and can we be consistent?
Absolutely.
We're learning when we have consistency in three areas.
A 100% dedicated team.
Meaning, this team that we created,
this Agile team, does nothing but the work that lands on their product backlog.
They pull from that, build their sprint backlog,
but all the work for that team flows through the framework.
It goes though their product backlog, and that team stays consistent.
When we have a consistent time box.
Meaning, we keep our sprint length, or iteration, or the time that we're trying to deliver value
in the same all the time, the team gets really good at figuring out what they can and cannot
fit in that time box.
When we have a consistent sizing scale.
Meaning, the team has been together, they have a consistent time box, and they are consistently
sizing their objects with the same scale, not changing it.
They get pretty good, and they get good at figuring out what they can and can't do.
This leads to...
...predictable delivery.
Isn't that what we all want?
We want to figure out how long it's going to take us to get something done, but it's
all predicated on consistency.
Once we have predictable delivery, we can really have fun.
We get to this thing called "fearless planning," which is the next best thing I know of to
a crystal ball.
We know we can't predict the future.
The next best thing we can do with that is have fearless planning, but to have fearless
planning, I got to have predictable delivery, and without predictable delivery, I need to
have ... or in order to get predictable delivery, I need to have a consistent team, a consistent
time box, and have them sizing their work with a consistent scale.
Consistency is key, not perfection.

How to Improve Your Drawings: An Outline With Character - Duration: 3:14.Hello my friends and welcome to another Tuesday of tutorial!
I am Leonardo Pereznieto and today I will want to give you some simple
tips, so that the quality of your line helps you
define the lighting and the volume of the objects,
and in this way that your art becomes richer.
We begin by lightly sketching the head and the neck, we will do a sitting figure
seen from the back.
This time we will pay especial attention on your stroke, on your mark.
Try to make your lines smooth and in one go. Avoid double
or scratchy lines.
As you see, I am doing the sketch pretty much in the same intensity
which is fairly light.
At this stage we make any corrections as needed, like on the leg and the position
of the neck.
That's better!
Once I am happy with the sketch, I go back and give more intensity to some
lines.
The light is coming from the top left
so all the surfaces that are facing the top left, will be a lot lighter and
as they turn away from the light they will be darker and darker.
So we leave the upper part of the legs light, but the lower we make it darker.
The line can be darker and wider as well.
While the ones in the light will be lighter and thinner, so much
that sometimes we can even lose them.
All the way down here, it is not only the farther place from the light
but also, it is where the body rests on the ground.
There, we may have an accent, that is the darkest spot.
Can you see how we start having some indication of the lighting and
the volume, just by doing the outline?
I think this is a really great technique that most artists do not know
or do not apply.
I reinforce just a little bit more the this accent and then as a detail
let's also place the backbone.
Very lightly so, just an indication.
So, it is very important that you have clean lines,
not scratchy, and that you vary the thickness and darkness of them
to make your drawings richer.
Very good. It´s ready!
If you enjoyed it please give it a LIKE! let me know what do you think
of this technique and subscribe to Fine Art-Tips.
And I will see you on Tuesday ;)

Linkedin who's viewed your profile 2018 - Duration: 3:21.
LinkedIn gives you the ability to see
how many people have clicked through to
your profile and you can actually with
the free version see the last five
people and their identities and maybe
follow up. So here's how it's done.
So what you need to do is go to your
profile so click here under me and then
select view profile and just scroll down
a little bit where it says your
dashboard. As it says it's private to you
alongside who viewed your profile you
can also see any views of any articles
you've published and how many times you
appear in searches so it's a good
indication of how your message is
getting out there. If you click on who's
viewed your profile it'll give you a
summary of the last 90 days in total so
78 in the last 90 days and of course it
depends on how much activity you have.
Sometimes you click through to other
profiles and they'll return to see who's
viewed the profile and this is something
you can do as a routine to see the last
five people who've connected. So here
you can see there's somebody with detail
and the picture, then here it says two
LinkedIn members. So it's possible within
LinkedIn to view in what's called private
mode. So one would be where you could just say
it's a member of LinkedIn that works in
XYZ industry or another one would be
totally anonymous. Now one of the factors
if you choose to do the same and visit
other profiles as anonymous is that your
stats won't be kept updated. So you won't
be able to see who's viewing your
profile so that's something to bear in
mind I'll look at that in another video how
you put that setting in there. So it
may be that you want to either reach out
to the people here's somebody who's now
become a connection so its first level
work so it could send a message whereas
this person just has the connect button
so you'd have to click through to the
profile and the only way you could
message is if you upgrade to the premium
version. The other factor about the
premium version is that you would be
able to see not just the last five but
the last 95 of people who've click
through. And that's what it says you can see
the rest of the list by upgrading. Again
I would always caution upgrading is
fine for a 30 day trial but bear in
mind if you don't cancel before the end
then you may well be charged not just
for a month but for a full year so bear
that in mind. So a couple of other
statistics here one interesting view not
sure that means one works at CIPD
two work there but only that kind of
information is going to be there once
you've upgraded. So it's a good idea to
regularly check who's visited your
profile particularly if you're getting
more active on Linkedin, maybe reach out
to them if they're already a connection
and see if you could develop the
relationship further. So that's it from me
I'm Paul from PRWilson media your
social media personal trainer
