Favori Ürünlerimle Sohbetli Makyaj | Hayatımda Neler Oluyor? | İlayda Akdoğan - Duration: 21:55.Hey everyone!
Today we will chat a little bit with you guys about my life and Youtube journey while I put on some makeup with my favorite products.
I will be showing the makeup products that I usually use and I will also mention
what's going on and what has happened in my life while I put on my makeup.
Since the makeup procedure will take some time, let's jump right into it.
I will begin with moisturizing my lips. I actually have lots of favorable lip balms but
I will use L'occitane's Ultra Rich lip balm which I always carry in my makeup bag.
It leaves a thin layer on the lips. That layer gets soaked up and cleanses the dry skin until you move on to the lipstick.
However, if I want to apply peeling in order to get rid of the scabs on my lips, then I use Dior's Lip Sugar.
I had already made a video about this, you can watch it by clicking up here. It's my updated skin care routine video.
Let's begin with the face, as I always do. I will quickly apply a primer. I'm using Guerlaine's very cute cotton-like base.
It smells awesome and looks awesome on your face, that's why I have been using this quite often lately.
One and a half pump is enough for me. Oh my God, it's spilling, I hope I won't spill it on the couch.
Don't worry mom, I didn't spill it on the couch.
Alright, 2019 has been intense, fortunately.
Even though I can't give all the details, we have started to make a new film.
Actually, we haven't started to record it, we're still in the preparation process. We're practicing almost every single day.
So we're slowly getting ready for it.
That's why I won't tell you guys in great detail
but I can say that, let me move on my foundation while I say it.
I chose my all-time favorite Bobbi Brown's Skin Foundation.
Let me check its number real quick because you guys always ask it in the comments and I can't respond to everyone.Porcelain, zero porcelain.
Whatever, I can't give too much detail because
I'm not allowed to give information about everything but you guys will already be seeing everything here on my channel.
I'm actually quite excited because it will be a period in which I will be uploading the content that I want to share with you guys the most.
I started this channel just as Dolunay was over and I had a lot to share about my profession.
I couldn't have a deal with a TV series that seemed very exciting to me for a while, there weren't many interesting projects that I had encountered, to be honest.
That's why I decided to wait for the right time and rejected the projects that didn't seem very appealing to me.
I liked this film very much, both its scenario and its director, the team, etc.
So I really like what I'm in at the moment.
That's why I'm sure that I will be eager to share everything about it here on my channel.
However, it will take some time but you guys will be seeing it here with me.
That's why I don't want to spoil everything by telling too early.
It's time for concealer. I will use Dior's Diorskin Forever Underskin concealer.
I like its tone very much. Even though I don't use foundation on a daily basis, I usually use a concealer, especially on the days that I feel the need of
putting on makeup.
Since it has a pinkish tone, so it looks like it isn't there and that's what I like about it the most.
By the way, I watched a movie two days ago, which is a movie that everyone is dying for. I was also dying to watch it.
I love Black Mirror's series and I like all of its episodes in general.
Its name was Bandersnatch, I guess. I can't remember it very well since it was too long.
You're leading the film by making decisions throughout the scenes.
Such as picking the cereal for breakfast or accepting or rejecting a job offer.
So you make the decisions as the viewer. There was a book with a similar logic, you would choose the page number and the story would go on accordingly.
That's why it sounded amazing to me. I read that the movie lasted for 5 to 6 hours if you watched all of it.
However, it is said that it lasts for 1 and a half hours with your decisions in total. I didn't like the film at all.
Excuse dear Black Mirror authorities but I didn't like the film at all.
It felt like I was not making the decisions.
How could I get the wrong answers each and every time? I believe that there shouldn't be a wrong answer, the film should unfold based on my decisions.
It didn't happen like that, the film pushed me to give the answers that was already right.
It restarted each time I made a wrong decision and I was about to throw up after that much rewind.
I was not doing anything.
I'm telling it since it is already shown in the trailer:
The boy is designing a video game, we made him gain 4 stars out of 5 at the ranking but it rewinded anyways.
All endings were bad so it kept rewinding.
That's why I didn't like it at all and it even pissed me off.
I think people are exaggerating it, everyone is like "Wow, it's a masterpiece" etc. but I didn't like it.
By the way, I will move on with my brows since I realized that they look terrible.
You will see how much I love this product because I broke it.
It broke because I have taken it everywhere with me.
I've also been using it for years.
It never finishes.
I mix these two colors up but they never finish.
I just keep using it because it matches my brow color perfectly, especially since it's in eyeshadow form.
I just can't quit. I don't know how I slept last night but
by brows are like Atatürk's brows.
They're really upwards, I usually try quite hard to get them into this position.
Today they are already in the right position for me. I just wish they were bushy.
I just have so many blanks in them.
Whatever, as I said, I didn't like the movie at all. I share almost everything I watch on Instagram
because I made a decision for 2019:
I couldn't watch as many series and films in 2018.
I watched only a few movies; I usually watched the new episodes of the series that I had already been watching.
I watched quite lower than my potential.
That's why I got a little bit mad at myself. For example, I watched a great number of movies in 2017 but the situation was vice versa in 2018, so I don't want it to be
like the same in 2019 and that's why I set a limit to myself that compose of minimum 30 books and 30 movies.
I don't think 30 is not too much when it comes to movies but I know that I will be motivated to watch even more once I finish 30 movies.
So I set my limit to 30.
I actually made a list for myself as we got into 2019
about what I want to accomplish in 2019.
I didn't do it in the previous years but the people who I value suggest that it is an effective way to improve yourself and achieve your goals.
So I said why not and started to make a list of my aims goals.
I will quickly stabilize my brows. This is the world's best brow stabilizer.
I might have tried a billion brow stabilizers. Of course I haven't tried a billion, maybe ten.
This is my favorite among them. This is Max Factor's Natural Brow Styler sculpting gel.
A pretty brow stabilizer.
It's unbelievably good. Your brows will remain the same for the whole day.
I was mentioning my list. I wrote a lot on my list before getting into 2019.
I wrote things like "I want this to happen this year, I will work hard to achieve this, etc."
I made a list composing of 10 to 15 lines.
One of them came true in such a short time, by the way but I may have been sending messages to the universe for like 6 months.
I was searching and working on it and it came true.
It's also a surprise, it's in the process of happening. It has not completely happened since the result is not here but it still counts.
It just got me very surprised that it happened so quickly.
I really wanted it to happen but I wasn't expecting it to happen this early. However, when we take the process into consideration, it has been like 6 months so I'm glad
it happened.
What does this list do? It helps you think about and focus on your aims and goals.
It makes your perception work towards it.
Vision board has been quite popular on Youtube lately, which indicates your aims and goals visually on a panel board. I also find it logical.
I was too lazy to do it, to be honest.
I also changed my smartphone's background to some things which I also want them to happen. Let me apply some contour on my face.
I mix my bronzer and contour together because it looks too sharp when I apply them separately.
My indispensable product here is Smashbox's Step by Step contour palette.
This is what its back looks like and here is its interior. I mix the dark and warm colors here.
By the way, the powder here is good for stabilization, I thought it was too yellow.
That's why I was a little bit biased and didn't try it
but I found out that it was not yellow at all. You can use it if you want.
2018 was a fruitful year in general. Especially with respect to Youtube, it has been the first year of my channel and I have really uploaded a good deal
of videos on my channel.
At the end of the day, when I look back,
especially when I scroll down on my channel from my laptop, I just say "Wow, we really have done uploaded a lot of videos"
That's why I could say that 2018 had been an efficient year but my expectation from 2019 is much more.
I think that I'm more aware of the things I want, I think I'm more specific.
I should also add that I'm a bit impatient. I easily forget that it's just the first month of 2019 and start overthinking about my aims and goals.
but it's only February, we have 11 more months to go.
However, I believe that it will be a better year for me to have a better control over the things happening around me.
It's time for the blusher. I will use Shiseido's Inner Glow Cheek Powder Blush Inner Glow Powder, oh my God, it's too long.
I will just tell its number instead: Floating Rose 3.
It looks amazing on the face and you can increase it layer by layer.
My favorite thing about it is its ability to be increased layer by layer, as I just mentioned.
When you apply a blusher on an area, it really remains there.
That type of a blusher is really not so preferable to me.
It's time for the highlighter.
I mentioned this quite a lot of times but people keep asking me for this highlight on the comments section under some of my photos.
It's Smashbox's Hollywood Highlight stick highlighter.
Even when I don't have anything on my face, I just apply it and spread it around with my fingers.
Let me now mention something which I'm not very sure about.
I want to get a haircut.
However, even though I want to get a hair cut, I think long hair fits me best
but not because I always had long hair.
I just think long hair goes better with me.
However, I think that a new period with my hair needs to begin.
What I mean by a hair cut is getting them quite short, up to my shoulders.
I might need to be gassed up a little bit but not too hard. A soft "Yeah İlayda, you should go for it" would do good enough.
I'm in between getting a haircut or not. I mean, whether it's going to fit me or not.
I'm not afraid of not liking my hair after the cut. If I hate it too much, I would get them attached back
or I would just do a pony tail, I love pony tails.
It's just hard to decide. What do you guys think? Should I get it or not?
It's also the trend nowadays, everyone has short hair.
However, short hair becomes the trend each winter, there isn't much to do about it.
I have finished everything with my face, I'm moving on to the eyes.
What I casually do for my eyes is applying Shiseido's blusher on my eyelids
and heat up that area, then I put on my eyeliner.
I don't apply a base on my eyelids since I won't apply any type of eyeshadow.
I just cover it with my concealer and it is just enough for it.
My brows look really good since they are already lifted by themselves.
I can't open this. Whatever, I will put on my eyeliner instead.
I will try to open it later.
This is my best eyeliner but I forgot to close its lid.
I'm very afraid to find out whether it has dried.
It's an eyeliner from Revolution but I don't know its name since it's not written anywhere. Let me show it to you guys.
It's spilled all around. It has got a very very thin edge.
You usually need to tilt the eyeliner quite much in order to do it properly especially with this type of eyeliners
and they end up not being black enough but it is not the case for this one.
You can easily use the tip of it to make a tail and fill in it and it ends up being extra black.
Everything I just said may seem like a lie since it may be dry. I'm excited.
I can't speak while I put on my eyeliner so I will quickly skip this part.
The only thing I can say is I Iove putting on highlighters.
Oh, it's not dry.
I was afraid for no reason. Why can't I open this?
Thank you. Smashbox's Photoedit Eyeshadow Trio.
Let me see if it has a specific number. Gold. It has three different colors in it.
It contains everything you need. I had done my new year makeup with this.
What I like about this is its glow, I add glow on my eye flares with this but
I get my brush wet before doing it. I just need to find my brush first, here it is.
I get my brush wet because it makes it much better. First you take some on a thin tipped brush. My Aliexpress brushes are not my favorites, but they do okay.
I'm using the lightest color, this one here.
I'm getting it wet with revolution's stabilizer spray.
It shines so beautifully. It doesn't shine this well when you don't get it wet, of course.
All eyeshadows are like this.
Now it's time for the lashes. We have a long process again. I will curve my lashes and then we will move on to the mascara.
I will use Lancome's Grandyoze mascara, please excuse my pronunciation if you know French.
I really can't decide which mascara is my favorite. I've always used Dior's Blackout,
my affordable favorites are Maybelline's Lash Sensation and Revolution's Eye Opening, I guess that was its name.
I will add all the products that I mention in the description box below.
I switch between those two and this one.
This one really makes the lashes black and keeps them up in the air.
It also doesn't agglomerate and get into your eyes, so I love it very much.
We have also finished the eyes and now it's time for the lips.
I'm telling you guys the lipstick that you have asked me on Instagram which I never take off.
Golden Rose's Velvet series, I swear I can't read it because the letters are decayed.
Velvet something series. I can't even see it.
It's number 21 but I do something to make this look even better:
I apply it together with a lip pencil.
I use Deborah's
what's your name?
I don't know its name.
Its number or name is not indicated.
I use Deborah 24 Ore lip pencil. I think 24 Ore is its number.
It's a nude pencil. I draw the frame of my lips with this and fill them in with the lipstick, the result is just amazing.
That's why I always use this. By the way, my lip balm has melted on my lips and its glimmer is left.
It looks really well underneath the lipstick. By the way, I was at Cappadocia like a week ago.
It may be one of my favorite cities in Turkey.
It just has an amazing mystic and different atmosphere.
I think I wouldn't get bored if I went to Cappadocia for 3-4 times a year because it's very beautiful.
I went there in winter for the first time.
It was spring or summer when I first went there. I was young and we used to go there more often. I couldn't perceive its value.
Whatever, I went there for the first time when it was snowy and
it was beautiful in a different way in snow.
The city itself is very beautiful and it looks beautiful.
I want to visit there again when the weather warms up, in spring or summer.
Finally, I will stabilize my makeup. I usually use this to refresh my face if I have applied any foundation.
It's a great stabilizing spray.
I will apply Revolution's Profix spray.
God, I'm excited.
First pump always makes me nervous.
Come on! Oh, something went wrong.
I'm feeling good.
We have finished my makeup. As I said, these are my favorite products.
I've been using some of them for years and some of them for only a few months.
You always like some of the products more than the others, they become your babies.
These are my indispensable products when I wear casual makeup for now. Of course they get updated through time.
When I make a revolutionary change with the products, I will make a new version of this video
but these are my favorites lately.
I will of course add all my favorite products down in the description box.
You can reach them all from there.
It's been a nice chat video in which I mentioned what I have been doing, watching, thinking lately. I think it was cute.
Hopefully, you guys liked it as well.
There's still no precision about the video regularity because I've been really busy lately.
I'm trying to catch up as much as I can. I spoke way too much, this is it for now.
See you guys until another video, bye.

The Tragic Life Of Artie Lange - Duration: 6:15.Few comedians have had careers as insane and tragic as Artie Lange.
The funny-man has had more than his fair share of struggles, but no matter how dark things
get, Lange always finds a way to come back.
Here's the real story behind the tragic life of Artie Lange.
Right after Artie Lange's 18th birthday, tragedy struck when his father fell off a
ladder at work and was paralyzed.
Lange, who often worked alongside his father and held his ladder, was away playing pool
with friends.
"I have nightmares about that.
He never brought it up to me, but, uh, I…
I think about it all the time."
Lange's father passed four and a half years after the accident, with Lange later revealing
to Rolling Stone that he'd simply "lost the will to live."
After moving to New York and doing stand-up for about three and a half years, the 27-year-old
Lange scored his dream job when he was cast on the brand new Fox sketch show, MADtv.
However, working on the show was stressful, and Lange's growing cocaine problem didn't
exactly help matters.
According to his memoir, Too Fat to Fish, Lange reached a low point when filming a sketch
called "Babe Watch."
A parody of the movie Babe and the hit show Baywatch, Lange had to spend three hours transforming
into a creepily accurate pig-man.
"A pig face, a pig snout.
Six teets.
The bikini top on each one, that was the joke, you know…
You didn't see us at the Emmys a lot back then."
When he finally got to set at 4 a.m. after having to stare at himself in pig makeup for
hours, Lange decided he needed a boost.
After buying snow in a parking lot and doing some lines in a restaurant bathroom while
still wearing his pig mask, Lange returned to set, only to continue doing lines there.
With no end to his addiction in sight, combined with two attempts to take his own life, Lange
was fired from MADtv after only two years.
Needless to say, Lange wasn't getting a ton of offers thrown his way after being fired
from a hit TV show and having a known problem.
"I have no job, no car, no money, no girlfriend.
I'm not particularly good-looking.
When I go to the beach, I don't tan properly."
However, comedian Norm MacDonald was happy to give him a chance by casting him in the
movie Dirty Work.
Lange was in rehab when MacDonald reached out to him about the role, but instead of
completing the program, he simply paid the rehab director to give him written permission
to begin filming.
Lange and MacDonald hadn't met before the film, but they instantly became friends during
Lange's audition.
When MacDonald appeared on Howard Stern in 1998 to promote Dirty Work, he brought Lange
along, talking him up until Stern invited him into the studio.
"Isn't that the guy who got fired from Mad TV?"
"Yeah, man, he got fired from Mad TV.
This is the coolest story."
"What did he…?
Where is he?
Bring him in, too."
It was Lange's first appearance on the show, and it led to the most successful move of
his career.
Lange's easy charm left a lasting impression on Howard Stern after his initial appearance
on the show.
So when Stern needed another person in the studio in 2001, Lange was the first to come
to mind.
The comedian stayed on the show from 2001 to 2009, and Stern praised him as the "funniest,
sweetest" guy around with "the biggest heart on the planet."
While the two loved working together, Lange's problem eventually made the collaboration
impossible.
After falling asleep in the studio and nearly punching his assistant on air, Lange went
back to rehab and appeared in his last show in December 2009.
By 2010, Artie Lange had hit rock bottom.
In his darkest moment after a four-day binge, Lange drank some household chemicals and attempted
to take his own life with a knife.
Lange later explained his addled thought process, saying:
"At the time I did that, there was a part of me that just wanted to get that feeling
or that opiate feeling or whatever.
My logic was, 'If I get bloody, I'll get queasy, and I'll go to sleep.'"
Luckily, his mother found him passed out and bleeding in his bedroom and rushed him to
the hospital.
After a year and eight months in rehab and therapy, Lange started to work again, writing
his second book, Crash and Burn, about the incident and his addiction.
If you or anyone you know is having suicidal thoughts, please call the National Suicide
Prevention Lifeline at 1-800-273-TALK (8255).
Though Lange has had more than his fair share of troubles, he always seems to get back on
his feet.
With the help of small roles on Louie and Inside Amy Schumer, Lange slowly made his
way back on TV, all while continuing his standup career on the road.
The game-changer came in 2016 when Lange scored a major role in the HBO series Crashing.
Lange plays himself on the show and acts as a sort-of mentor to Pete Holmes' lead character,
an aspiring stand-up comedian.
After only four episodes, the show got picked up for a second season, upping the chance
of Lange's role becoming significantly larger.
Though he spoke about sobriety after nearly taking his life in 2010 and seemingly got
his career back on track, Artie Lange was arrested in March 2017 for possession.
After the arrest, Lange tweeted to his fans that he was okay and "never wanted to live
more", though he warned young people to not follow in his footsteps.
However, a few days after the incident, Lange surprised fans by saying in a radio interview
that he had been fired from Crashing, but HBO and executive producer Judd Apatow were
quick to shoot down that idea.
The show's creator and star, Pete Holmes, even said:
"Once you meet and know Artie, you're not going to turn your back on him."
It's unclear what caused all the confusion about the supposed firing, but Lange did eventually
return to the series, even starring in a poignant episode that directly addressed his long battle
with addiction.
Unfortunately, the condition of Artie Lange's nose tells his story.
Fans who paid close attention to the comedian's nose in pictures and appearances could watch
the progression through the years, but Lange addressed it head on in December 2018 by posting
several photos to Twitter, captioning one picture of his nose:
"Woke up clean!
My nose is f---ed.
Gotta accept it.
But I'm alive and blessed."
This all comes amid court appearances for continued convictions, as well as reports
that Lange relapsed during rehab in the fall of 2018.
However, Lange insists that he's clean now, even taking to Twitter in December 2018 to
defend his decision to stay busy with stand-up comedy.
Lange wrote:
"I'm clean, guys.
I swear.
Will it last?
I hope so.
But I can't sit inside and be what… people want me to be.
I gotta take the risk.
It's the only life I know.
I love you all."

Make your characters MORE DYNAMIC - Duration: 12:42.It may be small detail, but the meat of the buttocks coming from behind
Don't forget that
Thank you for coming -Hello from last time
Last time this stick figure became an art like this
So this time is TONY -Scary!
So Hinoe-san, please draw a stick figure.
Ok, I will scrabble something.
Hinoe draws a stick figure
For a stick figure, it's impossible to start from the waist
I will start by selecting the position of the head
Oh no, don't do this to me!
This is quite a challenge
Something like this
Yahoo!
Hold on a second
It looks quite hard, but Tony may be good at this.
-Let me think -I think you'll do good
-I'll think of a theme -Please do
Yahoo!
Perhaps a weid looking guy?
Yes, I thought of that as well
Whice would be good?
What kind of a strange boy would I draw?
Ok, let me try it -Please do
It's a little different from Hinoe's drawing
Tony is starting with the "stick" of the stick figure
Hinoe added the volume first
I guess so
Tony, do you always add the skelton part first?
Yes, always. I need to add some energy to the action line
So rather than a skelton, it's how to create the rhythm of the movement?
Yes, recently I am practicing that.
-Is that to make the drawing dynamic? -Yes yes
It's been quite a while and I'm getting nervous
My hands are....shaking
The muscle -Yes, muscle
Even for a guy who is training his muscles, he may want to shout Yahoo! sometimes.
Double Peace -Double Peace!
Oh no! Ah, he's been drinking too much coffee
That would definitely effect his mentality
Although it's such a strage pose
He's got great body
He must be doing a lot of training
Oh yes
That outfit seems to look familiar
I was thinking of doing a different variation
Put a garter belt on him
Does he have that on?
Did he?
Knee high socks -Knee high! Nice nice
The "abosolute territory" around 3cm on the edge -Ahh, on the tip
I learned that before
We learned that from Uchida -Cyber cyber
How is the hair?
Ah, I got it. What was that Doraemon..
No, Marukochan. The hair is like this.
The adult version.
Was Marukochan's hair like that?
Her friend
Yes, her friend
and inspiration from One Punch Man as well.
You're watching Anime a lot lately. A wide range of taste
Chibi-Marukochan, next is Macross
-Oh yes -You're watching all genres.
-I love all genres -All genre!
-High heels! -Heels! How could he jump with heels?
I'm watching a lot of Americans heels lately,
and they are ALL muscles
But you llike those styles
Recently I've been looking for my style
so I'm trying many styles
It's quite fun. Oh, angel wings are good
I love this character
Let's make this his profile picture for a dating site.
Oh that's nice.
I'm this guy
Please check me out
So, ok
You pencil grip is funny
-You have your thumb in like this -That's true
I think my hand is a bit strange today
Ah, you need some control of yourself?
You want?
Oh no, I don't need coffee
-Ok, done -Oh
-Finished? -A bit more
Finished
-Ok, nicely done -Excuse me
He's jumping.Jumping
Hinoe-san, please draw.
This stick figure. Yahoo!
He's drawing quite fast this time as well.
The outfit is...oh I see
-It's Fundoshi pants -That's nice
I understand the pose, but in what scene is he jumping?
I wonder what it is
Hot springs?
If Fundoshi, it could be a festival
The Fundoshi you put on in a festival is,
without this cloth in front
It's like this from the front
-What a smile -It's Yahoo!
Wig?
Umm...no
You see the hair?
-Yes -It becomes like this
Oh I see
I want to create something like this every day
Not me
Everyone has different taste
Oh really?
It would be funny if this was Anime
LIke a Kool-Aid man?
Oh yeah
Do they still have that commercial, I wonder?
I don't know
He has big body, but quite muscular
Looks strong
Rather than a festival, he has reached paradise
Found what he likes
I got it!
Oh it's paradise. So nice
There is no reaction from anybody
Please write funny comments in the comment section
Oh it's dad!
That is my father!
Well, but these parts
or these parts if we put in Genki-dama
It will change the impression
It's either he is a super hero -or a super villian.
Oh yes, super villian
With this style and this character can't be in the Avengers
He should
Infinity Stone
Infinity Stone
-Tomato? -Nooo
These are not tomatoes
Collect seven and ask for a wish
It's a commonly used fantasy effect
We're watching what he is imagining?
The way to add highlight which I learned last time
Maybe done
Excellent
This was a Yahoo!
-Nice -It's crazy this time
We will try our best to compare
Comparison time
We had a simple stick figure drawn,
It was jumping
and Yahoo!
Doing a life Yahoo! jumping and
we thought it would be that kind of drawing
But this.
Excuse me
The pose is the same in a way but
The inspiration for the first pose was great
I wasn't expecting this.
Do you want this T-shirt?
Yahoo!
Yahoo?
Whaat?
-Yahoo! -I'm so happy
No
Detail
For the detail, it is Cyber cyber pants from last time
Open up the absolute territory
That was quite a learning.
I thought the love-love is good here
because Yahoo! feels good.
Right?
I think he's a strange guy
but he is seriously doing some excercise.
Oh yes
Doing hard weight training at the gym
Yes, a hot date is coming up later -A hot date!
What kind of person is he dating? -Don't know.
No idea
What I'm worried about is, I want the legs here
Oh you wanted the legs to be more spread out?
No, this is actually wrong
The leg! -Yes yes
The leg is on the back
It should go like this. That was my error.
If you write in this angle, I think you can fix it.
And the position of the hands are under the neck
I want more life to the body. He looks a bit stiff
Well, let's get some advice from Hinoe-san after this.
And it became this
What happened to everyone?
Wait, wait, I got it. Make it reverse.
Yes, on the PC let's make the two
meet each other and happy
What? Hug him? -Yes, he is his BF
I see
What is this effect?
Brush circles
I think you'll see a lot of these in Japanese Anime
It shines when he is imagining fantasy?
It appears a lot in illusional scenes
Any advice for this?
What can I say?
For this...
-You told me last time the waist is important -That's right
Look at the Chinese character for "waist"
It was like that. The waist
This signifies the body
This part signifies the most important part of the body
Which makes "waist"
That is so true
Should I start from the waist?
Yes. a lot of things work when you set the waist
Some details. Don't forget the meat of buttocks which comes from behind
By the way, if you power this up more,
-it will cross like this. -A lot more power
For the outfit, when you draw how the structure is made,
it gives credibility -ok
Whether it looks like a simple boots
or it looks like a long stocking
Very important
For the current pose on the waist, is it dynamic enough?
I think adding more volume to the waist will make it look more dynamic
-The camera has something to do with it? -The camera position
Add some perspective to it,
is one idea.
If you want dynamic, you should spread your arms
I learned a lot
So, what we had learned today is,
A dynamic picture
The frills are important
Everybody draw stick figures
on the Discord community group
Using this stick figure
What will happen if you draw a jumping Yahoo! drawing?
Please draw!
Please watch the other videos and subscribe to the channel.
-Thank you very much -See you
Yahoo!
Very sorry

Can AI help crack the code of fusion power? - Duration: 7:57.- So this lights gonna go on
and that's gonna light up.
- The anticipation.
- There you go.
Triggering.
- I pushed a button.
- [Intercom] Triggering.
(beeping)
(loud metal popping)
- So what is that sound we just heard?
That's the sound of $150 million plasma collider,
blasting jets of super hot ionized gas
at hundreds of miles per second.
We're at TAE Technologies, a 20 year old start up,
that hopes to finally achieve nuclear fusion.
It's the same energy that fuels the stars
but harnessing it here on earth
has been a scientific dream for decades.
Fusion power plants would mean plenty of energy,
no carbon admissions, little long term radio active mess
and zero chance of a Fukushima-like meltdown.
Governments, universities and private companies
have been pursuing fusion since the 1940s.
We're still nowhere near adding a fusion power plant
to the grid,
but in February 2018, a panel of experts published a list
of game changers for fusion research
and at the top of their list were advanced algorithms
like artificial intelligence and machine learning.
One of the private companies chasing fusion is TAE,
which began collaborating with Google a few years ago.
Together they developed machine learning tools
that TAE thinks could finally bring fusion within reach.
So we headed to a nondescript stretch
of Foothill Ranch, California.
We wanted to see just how far along TAE Technologies is
and where, if anywhere, AI enters the picture.
- So right now we're looking out towards the main vessel,
the experiment.
See all the blue cabinets around,
they are our power supplies.
Primarily for the magnets
which help to control and shape the plasma
that we are heating.
- [Rachel] Our guide is Erik Trask,
a lead scientist at TAE Technologies.
He's taking us on a tour of Norman,
the company's plasma collider.
Inside magnetic fields propel and control
the super hot spinning clouds of ionized gas called plasma.
While particle beams heat it to temperatures hotter
than the sun's core.
- The goal of this machine is to show
that we can heat up our plasma
to high enough temperatures
to show that it is relevant
to make a fusion power plant out of.
- [Rachel] All attempts at fusion involve
smacking lightweight particles
into one another at temperatures hot enough
for the particles to fuse.
That produces a new element plus energy.
In the starts, fusion occurs when hydrogen nuclei fuse
to form helium.
There are a few different ways to try and replicate
this process on earth.
Some experiments control the plasma with magnetic fields
inside a massive metal donut called a tokamak.
TAE twirls the plasma inside a linear machine named Norman.
Sounds great but none of this has produced enough energy
to be useful for a power plant.
(loud metal popping)
A machine in the UK called Jet did set the world record
by generating 16 megawatts of fusion power
but it took 24 megawatts to heat up the plasma
and even more electricity to contain it.
So the whole thing was a net loss of energy.
TAE's Norman machine produces some fusion reactions
but not many according to the CEO Michl Binderbauer.
- So things get hot enough that yes occasionally
a few elements actually collide hard enough
and you get fusion.
And we actually use this for diagnostic purposes.
Now this isn't bulk fusion yet, right.
So this wouldn't be economic.
This makes a handful of events.
But as we go up the scale eventually we'll get there.
- [Rachel] That's the goal for the future,
a fusion reactor that runs for months at a go.
For now, the goal is to produce a plasma
that's 30 million degrees Celsius for 30 milliseconds.
To get there the team fires Norman 50 times in a day
for just milliseconds at a time.
Each shot they may tweak thousands of variables
like the timing, the shape of the magnetic field,
the voltage of different power supplies
or the amount of plasma.
Since the machine came online,
it's fired over 11,000 shots,
each one a bit of a blind stab at the optimal variables.
- And we have a fault on N1N.
Do we know what happened there?
Stopping shot.
- So what happened?
- So there's potentially a resistor that's gone bad
or a board that is reaching an over voltage
and it's tripping something inadvertently.
- [Rachel] It's impossible for a person
to keep all those variable in their head
or to change them one at a time.
That's why the team is collaborating with Google
using a system called the Optometrist Algorithm.
- The advantage of one variable at a time
is you know exactly what happened and why.
Which makes prediction and model building very easy.
You can do that as long as the number of variable you have
is not very large.
How do you do that in four dimensions?
Or 20 dimensions?
- [Rachel] The algorithm is what lets them change scores
of variables in each shot.
If the team thinks the new combination produced
better results than the last one they pick one path
of pre-programmed shots.
If it's worse, they pick another,
hence the name optometrist.
Is shot one or shot two closer to viable fusion?
Three or four?
654 or 655?
According to Erik, what's happening here
is really machine learning rather than AI.
Right now, it's still the humans making the call
about what's better and what's worse.
- We've gone through countless classes
in undergrad and graduate school,
time in the lab, so our knowledge is being used
to produce data.
At some point, an AI system could be used,
could be trained on the knowledge we're gathering.
We're not quite at that stage yet.
- [Rachel] We asked some other fusion researchers
what they thought of TAE's approach, Julian Kates-Harbeck,
who worked with Princeton's physicals laboratory,
and Christina Rea at MIT.
They use machine learning a little differently
but they're intrigued by TAE and the optometrist.
- This algorithm supports human decision making
but doesn't take away the human out of the loop.
So it's sort of this beautiful synergy
between the human and the machine.
- [Rachel] Julian and Christina
have each developed algorithms
to predict when the plasma might misbehave
in order to keep it under control.
The methods differ but Christina says fusion experiments
are just so data heavy
that it's natural for machine learning
to help here and there within reason.
- There are many low hanging fruits in our field
that can really benefit from using this advanced statistics
that lies under the hood of AI in general.
Of course, we are not getting to the point
where we are building a self driving tokamak.
- [Rachel] These teams all see machine learning
and AI the same way,
as important tools just not as a panacea
to all of fusion's problems.
Right now there is no such thing.
The TE team is still thinking in milliseconds
and looking for one good day at a time.
- If we can get there in one day, great.
It probably will take more than one day.
- [Rachel] Is that a good result,
the plasma 20 million degrees for 10 milliseconds?
- That would be terrific, yeah.
Champaign would be flowing by now.
- Hey everyone, this video is actually part
of the Real World AI, a special issue here at The Verge.
This week we're bringing you all sorts of stories
about how AI's being used in the world today.

PRF Review: Trump wants Puerto Rico to fail - Duration: 11:21.In today's episode I'll be discussing recent events that highlight how
President Trump not only doesn't care about Puerto Rico's development and
ultimate recovery, he actively opposes it.
My name is Andrew Mercado-Vázquez
you can actually listen to on Patreon, Google Play, iTunes and other platforms.
Now, as I mentioned at the beginning what we're going to be talking about is
recent events that have highlighted how it is that the Trump administration has
become a obstacle in Puerto Rico's development.
Now, the first article we're going to be discussing comes from the Washington Post.
It was published on January 16th and it was written by Tracy Jan, Arelis Hernández,
Josh Dawsey and Damian Paletta.
Now, the title is the following.
Now, you read that title and you think this has nothing to do with Puerto Rico, but it does.
Who is this this top HUD official? It's actually none other than
Deputy Secretary Pan Patenaude. She was second-in-command at
the agency led by Ben Carson and was widely regarded as that agency's most
capable political leader. This is a person that has knowledge about her
agency, knows how this agency works and can speak with authority about about it.
Later down the article they talk about different instances that actually led
this person to depart the administration. But in particular to the
Puerto Rico issue they talked about the following and I'm gonna quote.
Now what is was this "concern" from Trump's part?
The article talks about that as well, I'm gonna quote.
"He" being, of course, Donald Trump.
Essentially what this all means is that Donald Trump was worried. What was he worried about?
That when the money that Congress had appropriated for Puerto Rico would
arrive to Puerto Rico, that government officials and other people, apparently, would misuse it.
Okay. You could say that that concern is valid.
Maybe.
But it becomes baseless once we consider the following, and I'm going to quote again from the article.
That's why it becomes baseless. That's why it can't be
just a "concern" from from President Trump. Because you have a HUD
official - second-in-command, not just anybody - telling you that this agency is able to completely
oversee and make sure that the money is used correctly. You don't even have to
trust the people that are gonna receive the money anymore because
your own administration is gonna be able to oversee it. So it becomes baseless, it
becomes empty. That seems to be just a facade that's constructed because of other motivations.
Now, what would these other motivations be?
That question is addressed in a Vox article that was
actually published the next day, January 17th. It's written by Matthew Yglesias (Yglesias with a Y).
This article is properly titled. It's the following.
THAT'S the right way of describing this particular situation.
The article basically talks about the Washington Post article and provides
the same general information. But towards the end the author does some some
reflecting, and I think this type of thought is very important to
highlight, and I'm gonna quote from the article directly.
So what exactly are we looking at here?
In this first example ,what we're looking at is a President that sees Congress
acting in a way favorable to Puerto Rico...and actively stands in its way.
And let's not forget the history that this administration has and the way that
it behaves towards certain segments of society. This author seems to feed from
that when he highlights the possibility that the President and his
administration is behaving, not from a place of general concern but rather from
a place of bigotry, a place of ignorance, a place of racism, or or both.
That's just the first example. The second example comes a little bit more recently.
Actually I think it was during the same time, more or less.
It's highlighted in an article from a local news outlet called El Nuevo Día.
It's an article titled"Trump attempts to block funds for Puerto Rico again" and it's
written by José A. Delgado Robles. This is an interesting article it's talking
about something new that happened. And I'm gonna go ahead and quote from it.
"Emergency nutrition assistance."
We're talking about money that goes to people so they can feed themselves.
The administration - Trump's administration - is opposing this. Why exactly are they
opposing this? Article talks about that as well, I'm gonna go ahead and quote again.
So, money for people to be able to feed themselves "is unnecessary and excessive."
We need to ask ourselves: would this be the same narrative if we
were talking about people that weren't in Puerto Rico, but some some segments of
society or people that lived within one of the 50 states?
We can ask ourselves that question as we read on. I'm gonna quote again.
There's there's the motive. The Trump administration is using
the $600 million dollars that should be
intended for people in Puerto Rico be able to feed themselves as a
playing chip in this push-and-pull that the administration has. We're gonna
go ahead and read one more time from the article, the following and I quote.
And he's talking about beneficiaries from this
nutritional assistance program. So, we're not talking about people getting rich.
We're not talking about people receiving loads of money. These are people that
just receive what's needed in order to buy what they need to survive, to subsist.
We're talking about a situation where the President of the United States first tries to block
Congress itself in appropriating money for disaster relief for Puerto Rico.
And then that same President comes in
and tries to block any effort in regards to Puerto Rico's ultimate development.
Which includes allowing people to receive a little bit more in order to
buy a little bit more food. Because what they receive currently on average is $135 per month.
And these are people in need.
What are we looking at here? We're looking at a series of current events
that basically highlight what we've always thought here at Puerto Rico Forward
and PRF Review. We're dealing with an administration that looks
at the Puerto Rico issue and not only does it ignore it, not only does it just
set it aside and pretend it doesn't exist like other presidents and other
administrations have done, and other congressional bodies have done - both
Republican and Democrat - but we're also seeing something a little bit more egregious.
We're looking at something different.
This administration is trying to prevent Puerto Rico from getting ahead.
It's trying to prevent Puerto Rico from developing and to ultimately recover from a natural disaster.
And that is...
...that's horrible.
Well that's going to be it for today's episode.
As always, thank you for time, thank you for listening, y que viva Puerto Rico.

How Maggie Rogers Created 'Light On' | Billboard | How It Went Down - Duration: 3:37.(hands clap)
- Hi, I'm Maggie Rogers and this is How It Went Down
with my song Light On.
I thought my record was done six times.
(laughs)
And I kept going back.
I had this sort of running track list
on a note on my computer.
I went in for one last swing.
So I went in to hang out with my friend Tom,
who also goes by the name Kid Harpoon,
and we just hung out and talked for a while.
He was sort of asking me if there's any stories I had yet
to tell on the record that I wanted to.
I remember specifically playing this bass line
on this Moog synthesizer at the same time as
he was playing this guitar line
but I don't actually know what came first
as far as the melody goes, and lyrics.
I always have this notepad with me.
It's a Moleskin, there's no lines,
so I can sort of scribble as things happen.
I remember scribbling pretty quickly.
The pre-chorus is like:
Oh, I couldn't stop it, tried to slow it all down,
crying in the bathroom, had to figure it out with everyone
around me saying you must be so happy now.
(woman crying)
It's pretty sad.
(laughing)
But I think that was the thing, is that,
I felt pretty overwhelmed and a little scared for a while.
My very private life became very public really quickly.
In a way where I didn't feel like I had any control over it.
The whole song is sort of about feeling out of control.
I guess I kind of didn't really know that
if I was going to do this or not.
Because I never had any doubts about the music
but the reality was that my job as a
professional musician kind of
turned out to be, like, 25% music
and a whole lot of other stuff.
Which makes sense cause it's a job.
You know what, there's always a part of it that has to feel
like work or something that's not entirely you.
I spent a lot of time trying to figure out how to make
this all feel like me.
I produced a lot of this record with Greg Kurstin.
I learned so much by getting to watch him work
and work with him.
I'd studied his production in school and then getting to,
sort of like, be a teammate with him
was really exhilarating.
I brought this song to Greg and we added, we changed around
some of the drum parts and added this, like,
really soaring, open guitar on the choruses.
Which I think added just a little bit of texture.
My favorite kind of music is like dancing while crying.
Which is maybe like a weird genre per se.
I like songs that you can have both the physical release
and an emotional release.
When I think about that, I think about the synthesizer
in this song.
Because realistically the song, chord structure wise,
is fairly simple but the one thing that happens
over the course of the whole song is there is this, like,
arpeggiator and the filter opens.
So by the end of the chorus it's just like...
Well maybe that's actually like the best analogy
for how I feel too.
You know like, the filter on this arpeggiator starts closed
and by the end of the song is really open.
And really free and really soaring.
And exciting and hopeful and optimistic.
That's actually a really wonderful parallel
with how I felt about music in the last two years.
Excited, bubbling, kind of timid at the beginning
and then by the end, just like, really happy.
(synthesizer sounds)
And...
(synthesizer sounds)
ready.
(synthesizer sounds)

The Carbonaro Effect: Inside Carbonaro - Hot Tub Fish Cleaners | truTV - Duration: 1:59.Hey. How you doing?
In order to pull off the trick you're about to see,
we needed to only have one person in the hot tub at a time.
Now, this girl must've been wondering
why all her friends suddenly left her alone.
Little did she know they set her up.
Yeah, I know. Can't keep it too hot, though,
or they'll all swim to the bottom.
See if I can get them to come to the surface.
We'll be all right. Yeah.
They do a good job, though, keeping it clean, right?
-Yeah. -And they don't bother you?
That's good. Should get him right up.
Here he goes. Here he goes.
Got him!
How we doing?
[ Chuckles ] I didn't see those in here.
-Oh, yeah. -There's only one?
No, no. There's a whole bunch in there.
They keep it -- They keep it clean.
-Mm. -Yeah.
-I didn't see them at first. -You didn't see them?
Yeah, we don't use chemicals or anything like that.
Just -- Yeah, we have them in the pool, too.
The pool has piranhas that we keep in there at night.
And then, during the day, you know,
we take them out, obviously.
-Yeah. -So...
Nope. I got him.
Yeah. There he is.
When they swim to the surface, I like to pull them out.
That means they're full.
And then I just let them, you know, get hungry,
and then I'll bring them back in tomorrow.
Yeah, there's probably a few still in there, so just --
just keep your feet off the bottom, and you'll be fine.
You'll be fine.
You see something?
There's nothing in the water, though.

How to stabilize a greaseproof paper sewing pattern diy tutorial - Duration: 2:30.Greetings and welcome to Busy B from Germany. My dear fellow collectors today
our topic is to stabilize a sewing pattern when you use grease proof paper for your
design. I prefer to use grease proof paper when I'm making a pattern from a
real Mattel dress. You see my design in the background. I already did the sketch
a while ago and recently I wanted to use this dress again and found it a bit hard
to do my transfer to fabric somehow. I thought it would be a good idea to
stabilize it and make it for the next transfer easier. What do you need for the
stabilization? Paper, normal paper like you use it for printing, glue and some
patience. You first put the glue on the back of the greaseproof paper then you
put it on the normal paper and let it dry for a while. I use a glue stick for
my swing pattern because I think it's easier instead of using liquid glue. I use
liquid glue for checking the seams. It's not 100% possible to reach the finest
edges of the pattern but that's no problem use liquid glue when the glue
stick is dried to be sure every detail of the pattern is glued onto the paper.
Then the next transfer from paper to fabric should not cause any problems
anymore. Thanks for watching. Every Friday comes a new exciting video for you
please don't forget to subscribe to my channel and I'm always open for donations.
Thanks !!!!

Main Event Match Ronda Rousey might not have expected to have this kind of night after
the Royal Rumble pay-per-view However she showed up to the Talking Stick Casino Arena
and got booed out of the building Rousey issued an open challenge that she might not have
had a chance to really address due to the crowd booing so loudly and chanting for Becky
Lynch Suddenly Becky Lynch's music broke out and the arena lost their minds The Man
got in Ronnie's face and the crowd went wild with chants of Becky Look at this The
Man is back on RAW Lynch said Ronnie I told you I would find a way to get to you again
she continued making her decision official for WrestleMania Lynch brought up the fact
that the last time they were in the ring she left Ronda Rousey on the mat Then Becky Lynch
made her decision official and said she is facing Ronda Rousey at WrestleMania This is
the first official match for WrestleMania 35 and it is very likely to main event the
entire show Ronda Rousey tried to come back and cut a scripted promo but the crowd kept
booing her even more Friends what are your thought about this Have your say in the comments

BEHIND THE SCENES with Konrad Junghänel and Stefan Herheim | XERXES Handel - Deutsche Oper am Rhein - Duration: 8:19.For over 30 years the form called opera seria had been dominant in London.
It consists of long arias, during which the story stands still and then recitatives
in which the narrative moves forward.
This form was quite rigid and it had no chance of surviving in England.
The audience were a bit fed up with it.
Of course Handel noticed this and tried to use his genius to counteract it
by thinking of innovations within this form.
And Xerxes is a wonderful example:
The arias become shorter. There are far more different, shorter passages
in which the story progresses.
That means there isn't always a standstill in the arias
where the music alone is dominant,
the narrative is continually moving forward.
That's what's new.
But ultimately it clearly didn't achieve the success he'd hoped for.
Xerxes was probably only performed five times: then the play was removed from the repertoire.
Its time in London was over.
Shortly after that Handel would "only" write oratorios.
These were not intended for the stage –
and musically they were probably his greatest works of all.
Basically it was essential, so-called historically
informed performance practice:
it's done a great deal for this music by going "back to the roots"
and using the musical tools that were available at the time –
it's filled this music with a lot more life, music from the high baroque,
the first half of the 18th century, with a very strong emphasis on rhythm.
All of that was necessary in order to really bring this music to life again.
Not just Xerxes, but all the operas of this period.
With its tighter form, Xerxes offers a lot of possibilities
to really stay on the ball and maintain the tension.
The quick and contrasting changes between individual arias
and mini-arias make this easier too.
In this brilliant production by Stefan Herheim the whole thing
simply becomes an incredibly entertaining and lively evening.
Ever since opera began, with Monteverdi,
the singers were the big stars
and 80 per cent of the total budget always went on them.
What was left went on a small orchestra and maybe a little chorus and some sets.
This cult of the star was huge
and it reached its peak in Handel's time.
The Italian castrati, who were distinguished by an enormous vocal range,
over three octaves,
and with a very particular, rather boyish timbre
– they were the non plus ultra of the time.
These castrati were highly sought after and as soon as they went on stage
they were always an immediate success.
We don't have any more castrati today, thank God.
We have two options:
we can either cast the role with a woman, a mezzo,
or with a countertenor –
who have also only been available again for a few decades
and who have now become specialists excelling in this area.
To us of course this countertenor voice still has something remarkable
because it's still exotic, it's a tradition that was interrupted:
in the 19th century it was unknown.
At that time a man singing in such a high register seemed outrageous,
though in the 18th century it was quite normal and no one found it comic
– and now we've almost got back to the stage
where most people no longer find it funny.
They have a very particular timbre in the upper register
and a virtuosity that really suits what's required here.
I'm a director because of the music, not the other way round.
I work in the theatre because of the music.
And my work is always entirely dictated by the music.
It's about taking this composed score
and creating the feeling that it's actually being improvised.
We don't embellish anything and we don't cheapen
something sublime, immediate and centuries old
as if we're pressing the button on a CD player.
Instead we need to feel that the singers are in the here and now
– in a situation that emboldens and encourages them
to produce these sounds completely fresh, here and now, as if they were today's.
Of course we don't try to reproduce the language of the baroque period precisely
– this would be impossible and we don't have the conditions
to read it in our time as it would have been understood then.
What's more important is the work of translation that reveals this mechanism
and of course we have to work with other mechanical signs and meanings.
I quote a great many images that are floating around immediately in our heads;
from films, literature etc.
We have changed the text so that people can feel:
we're not on foreign ground here, but in the centre of where we see ourselves.
We quote entire characters in archetypical form
representing principles such as loyalty, youth, humility,
overconfidence, royal rule, tyranny, despotism etc.
– and that's also reflected in the costumes.
My idea is that it all revolves around the boards that mean the world:
the stage that constitutes the baroque theatre.
The characters were fighting for the right of this world to continue to exist,
to function, so that the audience reacts as it should and
for them to be loved.
These people on stage are actually fighting for the right
behind these masks, behind this artificial, virtuoso disguise of roles,
of a skill that they have spent a lifetime working on for it to keep going,
so that this stage can continue to justify its existence.

The Carbonaro Effect: Inside Carbonaro - Hot Tub Fish Cleaners | truTV - Duration: 1:59.Hey. How you doing?
In order to pull off the trick you're about to see,
we needed to only have one person in the hot tub at a time.
Now, this girl must've been wondering
why all her friends suddenly left her alone.
Little did she know they set her up.
Yeah, I know. Can't keep it too hot, though,
or they'll all swim to the bottom.
See if I can get them to come to the surface.
We'll be all right. Yeah.
They do a good job, though, keeping it clean, right?
-Yeah. -And they don't bother you?
That's good. Should get him right up.
Here he goes. Here he goes.
Got him!
How we doing?
[ Chuckles ] I didn't see those in here.
-Oh, yeah. -There's only one?
No, no. There's a whole bunch in there.
They keep it -- They keep it clean.
-Mm. -Yeah.
-I didn't see them at first. -You didn't see them?
Yeah, we don't use chemicals or anything like that.
Just -- Yeah, we have them in the pool, too.
The pool has piranhas that we keep in there at night.
And then, during the day, you know,
we take them out, obviously.
-Yeah. -So...
Nope. I got him.
Yeah. There he is.
When they swim to the surface, I like to pull them out.
That means they're full.
And then I just let them, you know, get hungry,
and then I'll bring them back in tomorrow.
Yeah, there's probably a few still in there, so just --
just keep your feet off the bottom, and you'll be fine.
You'll be fine.
You see something?
There's nothing in the water, though.

How to replace rear wheel bearing / rear hub bearing on VW CADDY 3 (2KB) [TUTORIAL AUTODOC] - Duration: 6:49.1. Unscrew the wheel bolts. Use wheel impact socket #17.
2. Raise the rear of the car and secure on supports.
AUTODOC recommends: To avoid injury, hold up the wheel when unscrewing the bolts.
3. Spread the brake pads. Use a crowbar.
Remove the connector of the brake pad wear sensor. Use round-nose pliers.
Please note! Some cars are not equipped with the brake pad wear sensor.
6. Unscrew the caliper bracket fastening. Use a drive socket #16. Use a ratchet wrench. Remove the brake caliper together with its bracket.
AUTODOC recommends: Tie the caliper to the suspension or to the body with a wire without disconnecting from the brake hose to prevent
depressurization of the brake system. Make sure that the brake caliper is not hanging on the brake hose.
Don't press the brake pedal after the brake caliper has been removed. As a result, the piston can fall out from he brake cylinder,
and brake fluid leakage and depressurization of the system may occur.
7. Unscrew the brake disc mounting bolts and remove it. Use Torx T30.
AUTODOC recommends: If necessary, use a rubber mallet.
8. Pry the hub cap with a screwdriver and remove it. If necessary, use a flat chisel and a hammer.
9. Unscrew the wheel hub axle nut. Use HEX No.19.
10. Remove the hub and the bearing together, since they are a sealed unit. Use 3-Arm Gear Puller.
11. Clean the guiding part of the stub axle. Use a wire brush.
AUTODOC recommends: Be careful to avoid damaging the guiding part of the stub axle.
AUTODOC recommends: Be careful to avoid damaging the guiding part of the stub axle.
AUTODOC recommends: Be careful to avoid damaging the guiding part of the stub axle.
13. Install the new wheel hub with a bearing. Move the hub as far as it can go.
14. Tighten the hub. Use HEX No.19. Use a torque wrench. Tighten it to 200 Nm torque.
AUTODOC recommends: The wheel bearing unit must not tilt on the axle pin.
15. Apply some copper grease to the hub where it contacts the brake disk.
16. Install the brake disc.
17. Tighten the brake disc fastening. Use Torx T30. Use a torque wrench. Tighten it to 9 Nm torque.
18. Clean the mounting seats of the caliper and its bracket. Use a wire brush. Use WD-40 spray.
19. Install the cap of the hub nut.
AUTODOC recommends: The cap must always be replaced. When you install the previously used cap the sealing will be lost.
Use a torque wrench. Tighten it to 80 Nm torque.
21. Install the ABS sensor cable in the holder on the brake caliper. Connect the ABS sensor electric socket. Connect the brake pad wear sensor plug.
22. Clean the hub. Use a wire brush. Treat the contacting surface. Use copper grease.
23. Screw in the wheel bolts. Use wheel impact socket #17.
24. Lower the car and working in a cross order, tighten the wheel bolts. Use a torque wrench. Tighten it to 120 Nm torque.

2019 Toyota Rav4 Trail Edition Walkaround with Martin - Duration: 3:45.(upbeat music)
- Hello and welcome to Orleans Toyota.
My name is Martin McAllister and I'm here
to introduce you to the most exciting Toyota
RAV4 to date, the new 2019 RAV4 Trail Edition.
I've been a representative here at Orleans Toyota
for over 14 years and during that time I've seen
many different RAV4 designs.
In this short video, I will point out some
of the distinct features that separate
this vehicle from its competitors
as well as some standard Toyota features
that you will find across the entire Toyota lineup.
I can honestly say, in my opinion, that this
is the best RAV4 I've ever seen.
The new RAV4 comes standard with LED headlights
across the entire 2019 model lineup.
With the wider stance and increased
ground clearance, the 2019 Trail Edition
is designed to handle any driving condition,
especially with the new multi-terrain select dial
where you can select driving modes for mud,
sand, rock, dirt, and snow.
The Trail Edition comes with 19-inch
Michelin tires along with beautiful black
and silver aluminum alloy wheels.
The Trail Edition comes in a variety of colors
like this blue flame with a white roof.
It also comes with extended roof rails.
These roof rails are taller than other models,
providing better clearance when transporting
canoes, bikes, or cargo using the optional cross rails.
Not only is the 2019 RAV4 a beautiful vehicle
to behold and a blast to drive, it's one
of the safest vehicles on the road today.
Toyota Safety Sense is a suite of safety features
that have come standard on most Toyotas
over the last couple of years.
Toyota Safety Sense includes radar
cruise control, auto high beam system,
lane departure alert, and pre-collision system.
What's new with the 2019 RAV4 is that it now
comes with Safety Sense 2.0.
Toyota Safety Sense 2.0 adds bicycle detection,
full-range radar cruise control, road edge
detection and lane tracing assist.
The closest competitor to this is the Honda CRV.
However, the Trail Edition has a couple of big
advantages over the CRV.
For the 2019 RAV4, Toyota has upgraded
its 2.5-liter motor and paired it
with an eight-speed automatic transmission.
This translates into more horsepower
than the Honda CRV with better fuel efficiency.
An additional significant difference
between the Toyota RAV4 Trail Edition
and the CRV is towing capacity.
The 2019 RAV4 Trail Edition is able
to tow 3,500 pounds while the CRV
is only able to tow 1,500 pounds.
Also available on the 2019 RAV4
is a digital rear view mirror, rain-sensing
wipers, and ventilated seats.
These features are not available on the Honda CRV.
I love this RAV4 almost as much as I love my iPhone.
The icing on the cake is that the 2019 RAV4
now comes standard with Apple CarPlay
as part of the Entune 3.0 multimedia system.
If you're an existing RAV4 driver or exploring
it for the first time, I'd be happy to offer
you a test drive and answer whatever questions you have.

Conor McGregor and Khabib Nurmagomedov make settlements over UFC 229 brawl - Duration: 3:18.Conor McGregor and Khabib Nurmagomedov were involved in ugly scenes after their UFC 229 fight (Picture: Getty Images) Conor McGregor and Khabib Nurmagomedov are close to putting their UFC 229 saga behind them after agreeing settlements with the Nevada Athletic Commission (NAC)
The commission are meeting today (Tuesday 29 January) where the agreements will be presented to the five-person board and voted on, reports the Las Vegas Journal Review
Ryan Bader takes 35 seconds to destroy heavyweight GOAT Fedor Emelianenko Neither McGregor nor Nurmagomedov will be present at the hearing where the board are expected to agree to the settlements
Khabib's teammates, Abubakar Nurmagomedov and Zubaira Tukhugov, have also reached settlements with NAC
Khabib won the fight by submission (Picture: Getty Images) The details of the agreements have not been made public, but will emerge after the commission have voted on them
They are likely to involve fines and suspensions, but any ban will be backdated to the date of UFC 229 which took place on 6 October, nearly four months ago
Advertisement Advertisement NAC have the ability to fine both men the entirety of their fight purses, which would see McGregor lose $3m (£2
3m) and Khabib $2m (£1.5m) although this is extremely unlikely. The commission are still withholding half of Khabib's purse from the fight
Khabib jumped from the cage to get involved with a brawl after the fight (Picture: Getty Images) Neither man has a fight scheduled in the UFC with the organisation waiting to learn the result of the hearing before making arrangements
However, both men are expected to fight this year, with Khabib touted to face Tony Ferguson and a scrap between Conor McGregor and Donald Cerrone being mooted
Possibly trying to get on the right side of the Las Vegas power-brokers, the UFC released the economic impact figures of UFC 229 on the city
The event reportedly produced an economic impact of $86.4m on Vegas, according to Applied Analysis
UFC president Dana White said: 'During the build up to UFC 229, I said it was going to be the biggest event in UFC's history, and now we have all the numbers to prove it
'Khabib vs. McGregor smashed our records for pay-per-views, social media impressions, and global viewership, and now we know it set records for economic impact here Las Vegas
'None of this would have been possible without the support from the Las Vegas community and UFC's loyal fans, the best in sports

Anne: Welcome, everybody, to the VO BOSS podcast.
I'm your host, Anne Ganguzza, along with my amazing bosstie-bestie, VO BOSS Gabby Nistico.
Hey, Gabby.
Gabby: [laughs] Hi, Anne.
[both laugh]
Anne: Gabby, I –
Gabby: I love the way you intro me.
[both laugh]
Gabby: Makes me feel so good.
Anne: Because I love ya, I love ya.
Gabby: I love you too.
Anne: You know, Gabby, I was, I was – you always make fun of me, but I was late, a little
bit late this morning because –
[both laugh]
Gabby: Because?
Anne: I had some auditions to finish.
Gabby: Oh, that's important, yeah.
Anne: Yeah, I know, and it's, but you know what?
It made me start to think, there's a lot of talk about auditioning and –
Gabby: Mm-hmm.
Anne: I want to know like, I audition for my agents, I audition for other jobs that
come in, you know, through my email.
Gabby, sometimes it feels like I'm auditioning all day, and some people I have heard say,
you know, it's your job.
Auditioning is your job.
So I think we should talk about auditioning.
How much is too much, or how much do you do?
Gabby: Yes.
Oh gosh.
Yeah.
Anne: What are your thoughts on that?
Gabby: To be fair, we have to look at like all the, the opinions or thoughts on this,
and you're right.
I've heard over the years a lot of people, some of them even agents, say, "you know,
your job is auditioning."
Basically that's where our efforts should primarily be spent all day.
The entrepreneur in me has a little bit of a problem with that.
Anne: Ah yes, Gabby.
I'm so glad you said that.
Gabby: Yeah.
Yeah.
The entrepreneur in me, the business owner is like "umm yeah, that's basically working
for free."
Anne: Yeah, when you talk about – yeah.
When you talk about money, your money in and money out [laughs] comparison, you know, where
does that stand?
And I, you know look, I understand if I get auditions from my agents, and there's a little,
I think there's an extra step in there, number one, because I want to think that my agent
of course thinks I'm capable, and therefore the audition has been passed on to me.
So there's a little bit, there's a couple of people involved in that, and I feel like,
"oh, I should honor that."
You know, and let's audition for that.
Gabby: Yes.
Anne: And some of these auditions, Gabby, I don't know if you want to talk about it
now, but you know there's pages, and you know, sometimes people expect that whole audition
to take place, and that's not just a second of work.
That's like, you know, audition, process, edit, and we're talking sometimes people
expect over a minute.
Oh my goodness.
Gabby: The truth that you are speaking right now.
I had an audition this morning –
Anne: Right?
Gabby: It cracked me up.
I look at the script, the script is huge.
And I'm like, I literally, I think I read about a minute and a half, and I went, "that's
all you're getting."
[beep] And I walked out of the booth.
Anne: And you know, and you'll see specs too.
It'll say, "read both, read all the way through."
Gabby: No, no.
Anne: And then directions, "on one mp3 or two MP3s," I don't know.
That to me just, it [laughs] –
Gabby: It's being taken advantage of.
Anne: I – yes.
Gabby: Seriously.
I believe that.
Anne: I get a little bit like, hair raised on the back of my neck.
Gabby: As do I.
Anne: Really?
Like –
Gabby: As do I.
When we all know that statistically people listen for less than 15 seconds on average,
the idea of requesting any audition over a minute in length and getting super specific
about its delivery [laughs] it's abusive.
I believe it is.
Anne: I – yeah.
Gabby: I won't honor that unless it's like you said, it's coming from an agent, if
there's a very specific source, if they're asking for a special circumstance, mm yeah,
OK.
I'll do that.
Anne: Yeah.
Me too.
Gabby: But not just any old rando that decides to send me a script.
Anne: Oh my gosh.
If it comes from anything, any other source – I mean, unless it's a direct email, right,
that's asking me for, and I know the person and they're asking, like you said, it's
a special circumstance.
Gabby: Right.
Anne: But if it's just an audition that comes in, let's say maybe from a pay-to-play,
or you know, that kind of thing, maybe even a referral, and there's a page or two, I'm
only giving a few [laughs] you know, like maybe 20, 30 seconds at most if that, what
I think will be able to grab the gig as much as I need to do.
Other than that, no, I, I do feel that it's abusive.
Gabby: Such a fascinating conversation, and I know we're going to piss some people off
with this, and I'm all right with that.
[laughs]
Anne: [laughs]
Gabby: There are many coaches, many voice actors who, when it comes to pay-to-play,
they talk about auditioning 20, 30, 40, I've heard upwards of 60, auditions a day.
Anne: Yeah, yeah, me too.
Gabby: That's insane.
Anne: Personally for me, Gabby, that's not my style.
You know, hey, to each his own, but here's my thought on it.
If I can have direct inquiries rather than me having to go and audition and spend that
time auditioning, editing, submitting, if I could have direct inquiries about jobs – let's
say, "I've got, you know, a page of this.
How much would you charge?"
– hell, I'm going for that method [laughs] before I'm going to spend money, my own, my
own time in the booth like half of my day, because I'm actually negotiating money rather
than taking a chance on somebody even listening.
So for me, it makes better business efficiency sense to accept direct inquiries, and do whatever
it takes to make my business searchable, right, and findable, so that people can submit those
types of jobs to me.
Gabby: And it's why you and I stress the relationship piece, so much, about building
relationships and, you know, production housing, and casting directors, agents and even direct
clients because that's what it affords you.
It cuts down on so much of those jobs that are maybes.
Anne: Right.
Gabby: And significantly increases the booking ratio from your auditions.
Anne: Exactly.
Your stats are better.
Gabby: Yeah!
Anne: Especially if you're good and efficient, sure, if you can do 50 or 60 a day, that's
fine.
Go ahead.
Gabby: I wouldn't be doing this, seriously –
Anne: Yeah.
Gabby: Like I wouldn't do this for a living if I had to do 50 or 60 auditions a day.
Anne: Yeah.
Gabby: No.
I'm out.
Anne: You know, there's too many other things that I, I need to do for my business, and
here's the thought.
Again, it's not just – OK, when your business is to that point, right, where you can outsource
everything, but what you're doing in the booth, right, I think that's great.
Gabby: Mm-hmm.
Anne: But you know, in terms of until you get to that place, right, I need to make my
time as efficient as possible.
And being in my booth auditioning all day is not necessarily the best use of my time
in terms of growing my business and growing my relationships with clients so that I can
get more business or growing my web presence, growing my marketing presence so that I can
have more opportunities at my fingertips or at my voice, so to speak.
[laughs]
Gabby: [laughs] At my microphone.
Anne: At my microphone, yeah, there you go.
Gabby: What about the stress factor?
Every time I talk to people who are like slaves to their pay-to-play and the auditions that
are coming in, they're so stressed out, and they're so, just, they're wound so
tight by the process that I am "like, man, that's not going to make for some good auditions."
Anne: But here's the deal.
I think the process of working yourself to a place, and here's where I'm going to give
some props maybe to that style, is that if you are doing a ton of auditions a day and
you get really good at it, there's a certain, there's certain skills that that helps develop.
It will help you to develop your ear quicker, and of course your editing skills will probably
get pretty darn quick, if that's how you want to do that.
But again to get to that space and get to that place, I think it takes a long time.
And for me again it's not necessarily my choice of how to do that.
it's not to say that I don't audition.
That's not it at all.
I just am very particular.
I will, I have like a level.
Auditions from my agents are first, always.
Gabby: Priority levels.
Yeah.
Anne: Priority levels.
It stems from that.
And then other than that, I have certain things that I need to do to keep my business running
smoothly and efficiently, and it's not to say I'm going to stop what I'm doing to
audition, but I'm auditioning late at night sometimes.
So.
Gabby: I have designated times.
Anne: Yeah.
Of auditioning?
Gabby: In my workday, built in, yep.
Anne: Oh nice.
Gabby: When I audition –
Anne: What's your schedule like?
Gabby: So it's first thing in the morning for anything that came in overnight.
Anne: Yes.
I have that too.
Gabby: So I might have anywhere from like three to eight depending on the day, but it's
all at once.
I get in the studio, I hit record and it's boom, boom, boom, boom, boom.
All in a row.
And then chopping them up in postproduction.
That's morning.
And usually it takes me anywhere from 15 minutes to 45.
Immediately after that I move onto any jobs that I have to do that are paid gigs that
are self-directed, and I do it again at like 4:00.
Anne: So let me just calculate this out.
So eight auditions, right?
You said anywhere from 15 to 45 minutes.
Correct?
Gabby: Yes.
Mm-hmm.
Anne: So that's two to six minutes per audition.
Gabby: Yep.
Correct.
Anne: So I think that's fantastic.
And I know that people who say they do multiple, llike 10, 20, 30, 40, they've got the efficiency,
you know they've got their process down so that they're efficient, I think – how
long did it take you to get that efficient at auditioning?
That's a question.
Gabby: [laughs] Oh my God.
Anne: Because I think, well, right? it's, that's a – and I think there's where you
grow your skills, so I say if you're going to audition so you're growing your skills,
to develop a better ear, to be better at auditioning, to get quicker at editing, sure, I think that's
great because it's all a learning process.
But I don't know that's a business practice that after I got efficient, I would necessarily
maintain or keep in terms of running my business because I am hoping that the time that you're
not auditioning, you're spending time on your business so that you can get direct inquiries
that are asking you for quotes on, you know, what it would take to complete a job for a
client, and I think that that's a good plan or a good strategy.
Gabby: Yeah, but I think that question of how long does it take to get there, I mean,
– so once again, yes, than 10,000 hour rule, my God is that real.
Anne: Exactly.
And some days it doesn't apply because I'm my own worst critic, right?
Gabby: Production and audio editing, it's so detail oriented, and it's such a precise
process that it does take people a really long time.
I mean, I have been editing for 22 years now?
Oh my God.
Anne: Yeah.
Gabby: That's a loooottt of time invested.
Anne: Well, yeah.
Gabby: And please bear in mind I began editing with tape and razor blades.
Anne: Yeah.
Gabby: Predigital, analog.
Anne: I'm the first to give Gabby props [laughs] because you are the editor that I am not.
[laughs] You know, I mean, that's – you do.
As a matter of fact for the VO boss podcast, Gabby takes care of all the editing, and she's
amazing at it.
And so I, I gladly give that to you because I am just not at that level.
To be honest with you, I don't desire to be at that level [laughs] but I'm at the level
where I can submit auditions, but –
Gabby: Yeah.
But there it is.
it's a desire thing.
But you're right, I mean in my case, you know, it's cumulative years and years and
years of doing it, with as a result, yeah, I can get my auditions out really quickly.
But sometimes I also meet people – a student earlier this week I had a conversation with,
he was spending so much time on his postproduction and preparing an audition.
I am like no, no, no, no, no.
Clean, out the door.
Clean, out the door.
You cannot nitpick, and stress, and process, and tweak, and treat that audio like it's
a final job.
There is no time for that.
Anne: I think that there's – ok, so there are some people that will say, you know, get
your audio as nice as possible, right, as clean as possible in your audition because
people are judging you on that.
So what are your thoughts?
About that?
Gabby: I agree with that, but I think there's a difference between clean and presentable
–
Anne: Mm.
Gabby: – and what some folks are trying to do.
Ok, so here's the way I look at this.
As a girl, this is the best analogy I have.
This is, "I've got on a little bit of makeup, right, and I look decent," OK, versus
"I have a full face for evening with smoky eye –
Anne: I was going to say [laughs]
Gabby: You know, "like crazy lipstick and like, you know, I spent all this time."
Anne: The day versus night, there you go.
Gabby: Yes!
Anne: Day makeup versus night.
Gabby: I still look good!
I still – I'm not like the creature from the Black Lagoon right now, but [laughs] I
see people do that with their audio all the time.
They bypass just clean and easy in favor of a lot of bells, whistles, tricks, excess removal
–
Anne: Music and production, sound effects.
Gabby: – processing, yeah.
I'm like, stop all that nonsense.
It's just a waste of time.
The thing that I really want everybody to remember is when it comes to these auditions,
at the end of the day, you're applying to be the voice actor.
You're not applying for a postproduction job.
Anne: True.
Gabby: So stop doing it.
Anne: Solid advice right there.
Gabby: Yeah.
Anne: Yeah, solid advice.
Gabby: Are auditions necessary?
Yes, of course.
Of course they're.
Anne: Yes.
Gabby: But the ideal –
Anne: Are they part of our job, Gabby?
Gabby: They are, they're part of it.
They're not all of it though.
Anne: Yeah.
Gabby: And I think the ideal for any working professional in this industry is to get to
the place where you audition less but book more.
Anne: Exactly.
Audition less and book more.
And how do we get to that spot, Gabby?
Gabby: Relationships.
It's relationship building.
Anne: Yeah.
Gabby: A lot of it, a lot of it's relationship building, and it's your profficiency as
a voice actor so the client knows, "I can just book you.
I don't need to audition you.
I just need to know I can hire Anne, and she's got this."
Anne: And I'm going go one step further and say again, it has to do with your business
presence and our storefront, [laughs] right?
So you know, get that storefront.
So many people that think about their website, and their email, and their client communication,
you know, as the very last thing, in reality I think you guys need to kind of shift those
priorities so that your forward facing presence toward your potential client is professional,
trustworthy, just something that people want to purchase, and [laugh] you know, lately
this time of year when everything's on sale, I have been shopping a lot.
So I've been looking online at different storefronts.
And you as a voice artist, you're a storefront.
Gabby: I agree.
Anne: And don't, you know, don't cast aside the website, thinking that's the last thing
you need to do.
It really needs to have more consideration.
Gabby: Yeah, you and I book all the time directly from clients who don't know us yet, who haven't
developed personal trust, and they find us, and just based on what they see and read,
they hire us.
Anne: Exactly.
And that goes not just with the website, but for, you know, great content that's on your
website that includes like, you know, text written content about you, what you, who you
are, what you do, what does your business do, as well as some really solid demos that
speak to your audience.
I think that's important too.
Demos can go, you know, that whole idea of, when people used to book off their demos,
I still book off my demos.
Gabby: Mm-hmm.
Anne: And so I don't think that's a lost art anymore.
Gabby: No.
Anne: I have some demos that really speak to my audience, and I book off of them, and
hell, I'd much rather do that than have to audition.
Gabby: Amen.
Anne: [laughs]
Gabby: Tell us what you guys think.
We want to hear from you.
We want to hear your opinion about this.
Where do you guys stand on this debate?
Is auditioning our job?
Or is it just a portion?
You tell us.
Anne: And how much?
How much do you audition every day?
We'd like to know.
Gabby: Email us, message us.
Anne: We'd love to know what you guys have to think.

Anne: Unacknowledged.
"I saw you winking at me, but I did not acknowledge."
Gabby: "But I did not acknowledge you."
People just need to get laid.
That's my [laughs]
Anne: [laughs]
Gabby: People in advertising just don't get laid enough, I think that's – and this
is the result.
Anne: You know, that's going into an outtake.
Holy crow.
Holy crow! [laughs] It's all that training, 20 years, Gabby.
20 years working in a high school.
20 years of trying not to like swear and say "oh shoot.
[laughs] Oh shoot!"
Gabby: I love we have like a bunch of people, and we're together, and like you, you're
like "OK, people.
[clapping] All right.

[clapping] "Come on, all right."
Gabby: Immediately.
And I love it.
Anne: "Attention at the front, please."
Gabby: I love –
Anne: "Attention at the front."
Gabby: I love watching you do that.
Anne: "I'm waiting.
I'm waiting."
Gabby: That's a total personality shift.
[both laugh]
Anne: "I'm waiting."
Gabby, you'd just be like, "shut the [beep] up."
Gabby: [laughs] OK.
