We did some medical training today was hoist so we did a static and dummy hoist and then live which live was actually having the medic on the hoist. We did a few rounds out on the range with a skedco which is basically a spine board. Every skill that we have as an aviator, as a medic, or as a crucible, or as a person will feel. So anything is about being proficient. So the more we do it, the more reps that we do, the more comfortable we'll get with and the better we'll get at it. So when it comes time down to do it in the real world, we're going to be doing the best we can. It was awesome. We got a really good opportunity for everybody to use all the skills that we practice constantly and actually apply them to the training mission as they get a good opportunity.


Welcome back everyone. We are continuing our discussion about section 6.1 eigenvalues and eigenvectors from the textbook linear algebra done openly. We had seen in a previous video that if we take the specific matrix 1652 that you can see on the screen there, and you times it by the vector 11, that'll equal the vector 77, which if you factor out the 7, you get 7 times 11. This is an example of an eigenvector and an eigenvalue, so ax equals lambda x, where here a is that 2 by 2 matrix x is the vector 11 and lambda is the vector 7. It turns out though that eigenvectors are not unique. It's actually very easy to come up with lots of eigenvectors once you find one of them. For example, if I take the matrix 1652, so the exact same matrix A that we had before, what happens if I multiply by the vector 22? Let's go through the calculation here.  If we simplify that, we end up with 1414, which if we factor out a 7, you'll get 7 times 22. You'll notice that the same vector showed up twice. We take A times the vector 22. We end up with 7 times the vector 22, which is prima donna in our ballerina right here. What's the significance of 22, of course? The relationship here is that the vector 22 is just two times the original eigenvector we have, which is 11. Taking an eigenvector and taking a scalar multiple of an eigenvector gives us another eigenvector. In general, if we have the equation Ax equals lambda x, you can replace x with any multiple of x. If you take A times Cx, because the properties of matrix multiplication, this C comes out, we can factor it, and so you get C times Ax. Well, because Ax is an eigenvector, Ax will become lambda x, and then as lambda and C are just scalars, you can bring C back in and you end up with lambda Cx. Once you have an eigenvector, any scalar multiple of any non-zero multiple of that eigenvector will give you another eigenvector. So eigenvectors are not unique, per se. And so when it comes to eigenvectors, like we have an eigenvalue in hand, like this matrix over here, it's eigenvalue, eigenvalue is 7. When we have an eigenvalue 7 in hand, we're not going to be interested so much in the specific eigenvector. We're going to be more interested in the so-called eigenspace, because after all, in that previous video, how did we find the vector 11? We looked at the null space of the matrix A minus 7i, and we found out that this null space was non-trivial. Now, this null space is what we call the 7 eigenspace, the 7 eigenspace of this matrix A. And so in particular, an eigenspace, given a matrix A, which is n by n, it is going to be the null space of the matrix A minus lambda i. And if lambda is an eigenvalue, this eigenspace will, the matrix A minus lambda i will have nullity greater than 1, and this eigenspace will have dimension greater than 1. The dimension of the eigenspace is what we call the geometric multiplicity of the eigenvalue. And so we can have multiple eigenvectors for a single eigenvalue. So it's going to be of great interest to us to try to, once we have an eigenvalue, to look at the entire eigenspace and not necessarily at individual eigenvectors. So I actually wanted to show you a quick example of this. How does one compute the eigenspace for a matrix? And when I say compute the eigenspace for a matrix, what I'm really interested in is, can we find a basis for the eigenspace? If we can have a basis, then we can, then we can describe every eigenvector for a specific lambda as a linear combination of these basis elements. This will give us a linear independent set of eigenvectors right here. So how does one go about doing it? Well, they give you the matrix A, that's going to be given to us. And for the moment being, let's suppose we know what the eigenvalue is. So we have an eigenvalue of 2. And so let's calculate a basis for the eigenspace. So to begin with, we have to compute A minus 2i. Remember 2i is just the matrix, which has twos along the diagonals everywhere else is just zero. So when you combine these together, we're just going to subtract two from the diagonals. So we get four minus two, which is two, one minus two, which is negative one and eight minus two, which is six. And then all the other numbers are left unaffected. You can just transcribe them below like this. Now, when you look at this matrix, it's like, whoa, every single row is identical. If I was going to row reduce this, which I am, what I would do is I would take row two minus row one, I would take row three minus row one to row reduce this thing. And when you do that, this would row reduce to the echelon form two, negative one, six, zero, zero, zero, zero, zero, like so. You can see that there's a pivot column in the first one, but we're going to end up with these two free variables right here. And so this tells us that the nullity of A minus 2i is going to equal two. So already what I can see right here is we've actually discovered that the geometric multiplicity of the eigenvalue two, that's going to equal itself to, it's just this number right here. It's the dimension. It's how many free variables turned out to be in this homogeneous system. So we got the geometric multiplicity, but I still want to find a basis. What we have to do is we have to find a basis for this eigen space. And we're doing that from this row reduce echelon, or what's not row reduce, but this one, this echelon form right here. We could divide everything by two and we could work with fractions from there. We've seen how to do that. I really want to postpone division if I can't avoid it. And so if we just look at that first thing as an equation, we get 2x1 minus x2 plus 6x3 equals zero. The idea is we could solve for the first one, because we often treat the first one as a pivot position, right?  It's just, let's just say that I'm an introvert when it comes to fractions. I have a lot of fractions to make myself happy. We could actually treat the second variable as the dependent variable and then the other ones is free. That would actually result just by adding x2 to the other side.  And so we get as our generic vector in the null space. So its entries are x1, x2, x3. Well, x1 could be whatever it wants. x3 could be whatever it wants, because it's a free variable. But then x2 has to look like 2x1 plus 6x3 right here. Which then when we decompose it, we end up with x1 times the vector 1, 2, 0. And then we get adding to that x3 times 0, 6, 1. Like so. And so these right here give us a candidate for the eigenvectors we could have for this matrix. So let's actually verify that we did find eigenvectors for this thing after all. So we take the matrix A, we'll call this first one U in the second one B. So if you take AU right here, remember the matrix was, what was the original matrix? 4, negative 1 and 6, 2, 1 and 6. And then lastly 2, negative 1 and 8. Like so. Multiply it by the vector 1, 2, 0. And so when you multiply these out, you end up with 4 minus 2. There's a 0 there, I'm not going to write down the 0. You're going to get 2 plus 2. And then lastly, you're going to get 2 minus 2, which when you simplify this, you end up with 2, 4 and 0. Which factor out the eigenvalue 2, you get 2 times 1, 2, 0. So 1, 2, 0 is an eigenvector like we saw. And if we were to check the other one, so we do A times V. So I'm just going to copy down A again, 4, negative 1, 6, 2, 1, 6, 2, negative 1, 8. And times it by the vector 0, 6, 1 right here. If you go through the multiplication again, I'm not going to write down the zeros. We get negative 6 plus 6. We get 6 plus 6. And we get negative 6 plus 48. 6 times 8 there. Simplifying this, of course, you're going to get 0. Whoops, a daisy. You're going to get 0. You're going to get 6. Whoops, sorry, 6 plus 6 is a 12. And then we end up with 42. Is that what I wanted there? Let's see. Why did I do 8 times 6 there? I'm sorry. It should just be negative 1 times 6 and then 8 times 1. So let me fix that, everyone. There's a mistake there. Official JK. We're going to put that in there right there. JK for everyone to remember. So we get 8. Negative 6 plus 8. That's equal to just a 2. And so if you factor 2 out from there, you get 0, 6, and 1, which was our vector V from before. So despite my little blunder, I fixed myself here. And so we see that we did find eigenvectors 1, 2, 0, and 0, 6, 1. We can see that these vectors are in fact linearly independent of each other. They're not scale in multiples of each other. And so then in conclusion here, we've now found our 2 eigenspace, our 2 eigenspace here of A. This, of course, is the null space of A minus 2i. And as we've seen, the null space is the span of these 2 vectors 1, 2, 0, and 0, 6, 1. And particular are bases we found right here. All right. Now, as bases for a vector space are not always unique, there could be other bases for eigenvectors you could find. In fact, looking at my script, I actually deviated from how I did it in the textbook there. Look there for an alternative example if you want to. I mean, we do have a genuine basis of eigenvectors right here. And the one in the textbook is also a basis of eigenvectors. It just took a little bit different direction, and that's OK. And so we did find an eigenbasis here. So to find this basis of eigenvectors, we have to first compute the matrix A minus lambda i. And then we are going to row reduce it. We row reduce it to some echelon form, right? And then from that echelon form, we're going to find a basis for this null space of A minus lambda i. So finding the eigenspace of an eigenvalue with a matrix is really just finding the null space of that associated matrix. Just instead of taking the null space of the matrix A, we're taking the null space of the matrix A minus lambda i. And that's all there is to it. All right, so there's one more installment of this section, 6.1. Stay tuned for that one. I do want to show you a nice little shortcut you can use in the case of a triangular matrix. Stay tuned for that.


Amazing facts about Russia. Due to its huge size, Russia is home to a quarter of the world's forests, has shores on 12 different seas, and borders 15 other countries. If you're thinking about heading to Russia to teach English abroad, check out this infographic for a few more interesting facts about this fascinating country that you might not be aware of. For example, did you know that the smallest gap between Russia and America is only a mere 4 km? You might also be interested to know that there are around 10 million more women in Russia than there are men.


And that's a sleeping Chevy. How you doing, bud? What else we got around here? What else we got around here? Got a little nose peeping out of here. A little wiener in there. Everybody missed you, bud. Sorry to disturb your slumber. What else we got around here? Oh, we got a little Frankie over here, or big Frank, whatever you wanna call him.  Good morning, boys. Do you know what we're doing today? You look awfully excited. See that tail wagon? Diesel, you gonna help? It's cold, I'm gonna change eye. What's on the agenda for today? Christmas. So we got all of our Christmas lights from last year out and fixed. I fixed all the ones that were broken.  And then we also added to our collection this year. Very excited to get this whole yard lit up. If you didn't know already, or if you're new, Britt and I are kind of big on Christmas. We get very excited about Christmas. We live for Christmas every year. So we don't really do a lot of decorating for the other holidays. Maybe we will in the future, but Christmas is by far our favorite. So as you can tell, we like Christmas lights. So we're gonna be able to get the whole house done all the way around. We got these icicle lights. They're just gonna go along the front of the house underneath the eaves trough, underneath these red and green lights. And the other red and green lights will go all the way around our garage. And if we have enough, we'll go out and put them around the cabin as well. We'll see how much we have left. We got quite a bit here. Not quite a bit. I think we should be good. And then these guys, we're gonna find places for them probably around our beams. I can't really see them from here. On the front deck over here. Probably find a spot for them out here somewhere. On the porch. And Britt also got a couple of things to set up this year. She got a five foot tall snowman. And also some presents. They're not for you though, Chevy. I'm sorry. They're not for you. But you can be friends with them. You can name them. You can't name them Frosty. That name's taken already. Okay. But there's some presents to go beneath the, that's gonna go out on the porch as well. So it should be very Christmas-y this year. So every year we try to add on to our collection of Christmas lights and Christmas decorations. So one day, what's that movie called? What's the movie called, Britt? Christmas with the Cranks? No. Deck the Halls. Deck the Halls. Well, we'll be seen from space. It's gonna be great. And we got all LED lights this year, which is pretty much all you can get nowadays. Anyways, the incandescent bulbs are sort of non-existent anymore. The LEDs take up a lot less power. So it should be all right. It's just for the Christmas season. It's worth it. So like most of you who watch my channel know, up here in Canada, we celebrate Thanksgiving in October. So after Remembrance Day, which is the same thing as Veterans Day for you guys in the States, after that, Christmas starts. You can't turn on your Christmas lights before Remembrance Day. But after that, it's full on Christmas until New Year's. And our lights usually stay on until spring, something like that. Especially if we put this much effort into it every year. We wanna enjoy it for more than just like a couple of weeks. So we put them up around this time. Next year, I think we're gonna put them up in a warmer part. You'll probably put them up in like September or October or something and then turn them on after Remembrance Day. But we waited a little bit long, but we did get to the store early enough. We sort of cleared up Canadian tire of a lot of last year stock. All of this was on sale. So we saved a lot of money because they're trying to get rid of last year's stock because they wanna bring in this year's. So enough talking, let's get to it. I gotta figure out how to use these. Where's this, okay. Snap on clips, because this year we had to take down, well, we have to set them up differently this year, right? Because we have eaves troughs now on the house. So I got these hooks and it'll hopefully work and it'll make it a lot easier because the rest of them have to be stapled on. But these can just be hooked on, make some easier to clean up in spring as well. We'll probably take them all down and once it warms up in April or something, we'll have them lit up until at least end of February, I think, we'll see. I'm excited. This is my project today. And Brits, Brits gotta go to work for a couple of hours yet, but I'm gonna be working on this. Brits is getting all suited up, getting ready to go put together her snowman. He's as big as I am. Sheva, are you gonna help her? He'll be scared of it. He's even sketchy about my gloves. Oh, there's somebody on the porch. Okay, he's okay now.  Well, I guess she could go out. Little guys got to stay in because their paws freeze really quickly. And because they take off. And they take off, yeah. Our big boys are much better behaved. Yeah, and you could get picked up by a hungry bear at this season. You could get picked up by a hungry squirrel at this season, look how small he is.  Thought? I have a little bit nutty. He's concerned, where is she going? I need a took. Hey, so, got everything we need here. I'm gonna start one strand at a time. So I'm gonna go out and hang the first strand, sort of see how to do this. See if I can get a rhythm going or something. I'm gonna start at one corner of the house and work our way all the way around. Wait, what do I got here? I got more than one, don't I? Is this part of the same one? Part of the same one? Part of the same one or is this two? It's all the same one, isn't it? No, I got two here. Oh man, I untangled these all yesterday, I promise. Well, I made a small dent. This is taking a lot longer than I thought I would, but everything always does, right? That's the way life goes. Diesel, excuse me. Excuse me, I'm gonna go show them what I've got done so far. Maybe they'll be a little impressed. I thought I'd be a lot further along than this already, but hey, doing what we can, okay. So we got the red and green lights done all the way down to the end of the house over there, just on the front. And then we're just starting to put these icicle lights on the bottom of that, yeah, that'll go all the way along there. The house as well. I think it's gonna look really nice at night time. It's been a good temperature to get this done today too. It's only about minus three, minus four Celsius. So it's right down the freezing point. It's probably around like 30 Fahrenheit, 30 Fahrenheit, something like that. So it's cool, but it's not too cool. It's not cold enough that my hands freeze, right? So we're getting stuff done, getting stuff done. I ripped one of the wires on this by accident. So I'm fixing it with super glue. This one right here, it popped out. So I put it back in and I just super glued the cord to the frame there so it can't come out again. Thinking outside the box, telling you what. So we gotta do the back of the house yet, the sides of the house and the garage. Probably not gonna get this all done today. I've gotta leave on a trip tonight yet towards Alberta. And then from Alberta, we have a load going down to Georgia. I haven't been down to Georgia in years and I'm really looking forward to it. I think we're going close to Savannah, Georgia. Somewhere around there, but we'll find out more in the next couple of days. For now, let's see how much of this we can get done yet. Britt should be home from work in about a half hour. I'd like to be able to have a little bit more to show for what I've got done today. Guess we'll see. So I went to the doctor yesterday and I've had some issues with high blood pressure lately. So that's a little tidbit of information for you. I don't know what's going on with my body, but I've had high blood pressure for a little while now. So now I have a blood pressure monitor here. I've got to take my blood pressure every morning and every night and report back to the doctor, I guess after my next trip whenever I get back next, go to my family doctor and he's gonna figure out, he hasn't diagnosed me with high blood pressure or anything yet. There's no diagnosis. It's just a precautionary thing. We're checking for it right now. So if it's consistently high, like last night I went to bed at a 150 over 97. This morning I woke up and it was fine. It was at what, 119 over 87? Something like that. So it was doing better. But then as the day went on, started working outside, came back in, I just checked it midday and I'm back up to about 150 over 97 again, which is a little high. It's not like way up there high, like your heart's gonna explode, but it's higher than it should be for extended periods of time, like weeks and weeks and months and months. It could weaken your heart muscles and weaken everything and lead to a heart attack down the road. So it's nothing too big to worry about right now, but it is something to be concerned about and we're looking into it. I also have shortness of breath. I get out of breath, but I blame that on me just being fat. I gained 20 pounds again. So I'm trying to lose weight again and that's gonna help drink a lot of water. That's gonna help. I'm gonna bring my blood pressure down and we want it to be around 120 over 80 somewhere in there. But yeah, it's something we're working on right now. So paying close attention to that. And I have an app that keeps track of everything for me. We're gonna find out my average and they did some tests. They took some of my blood yesterday at the doctor. They're gonna test for the regular stuff, anything wrong with the kidney, anything wrong with the liver, anything else they can find in the blood, and check for diabetes and stuff like that. My grandma did have diabetes. I'm not too sure exactly right now which type diabetes, but diabetes is diabetes and it sort of runs down the family. And no one in my immediate family has it, but there's always a chance that I could. So they'll check for that because that could be a reason why my blood pressure would be all over the place. But other than that, it's just eating healthier. Like I said, trying to get into a healthier lifestyle, walking every day, eating better, drinking more water, eating less salt and sodium. You know, my body's just telling me, hey, you're not 18 anymore. You know, you're getting there. You're not old yet, but you gotta be careful because if you wanna feel good when you're old, you better start paying attention to me. So okay, so I'm getting the message. I'm starting to pay attention to my body and my health because you know, when I'm in my 40s, 50s, 60s, 70s, I still wanna be feeling good. So I'll let you guys know how that goes. We're gonna be tracking it the next couple of weeks. So maybe I'll bring you guys along for that. Something to talk about and it is something going on in my life right now. I've never really had any health issues ever in my life. I've been healthy as a horse. My whole life, is that the sang? Healthy as a horse? It is now. So it worries me a little bit, but we have the means to take care of it. Let's get back to Christmas lights, Christmas. Christmas makes me happy. Talking about doctors does not make me happy. I need another box. Where's the box? Oh, I brought them over here already.  These are only 2.2 meters long. It's ridiculous. It's like seven foot two inches. Well, I think we pretty well got her done here as much as we could. Just on the front though. I still got her come back next weekend after this next trip and finish it up. Here's Brit's snowman. She put together, he lights up at night. I got these all the way down here, but I didn't have quite enough of these icicle lights. I'm gonna have to go back and get another couple and I'm gonna have to exchange this one. She probably can't tell right now. Halfway through it, it's not lit up anymore. So I'm just gonna exchange that one for a new one and then get another two so that it goes down all the way to the end over here. And then those red and green ones, they're gonna go around all the way around the back and all the way around the house and then all the way around the garage as well. So what do you think, bud? Think it looks good? I think it looks good. He's kind of quiet, doesn't talk much. You look a lot better when you're lit up, you know what? No offense or anything, you just... We'll have to show you once the sun goes down. What do you look like when it's all lit up? But we gotta go on another trip first. So we gotta head out to Saskatchewan and then Alberta and then back home again. So I hope you guys will tune in. You'll have to wait till next weekend to see all the lights lit up. It's a little too close to remember and stay yet. I know when you're watching this, remember and stay hasn't happened yet, but for us, when I set this up, it's remember and stay weekend. I'm only setting it up because I'm at home, otherwise I'd wait till after the weekend. But I figure since I was at home, I'll spend this weekend setting up as much as I can, but the lights all turn on after remember and stay. You don't wanna take anything away from our soldiers. So Christmas starts the day after. I should clarify that last statement. Remember and stay is not just about the fallen soldiers, it's also about those still serving. Thank you to all of those who are serving and not just our Canadian military. I know there's a lot of you Americans that are watching as well. Thank you for your service. You guys are the good guys. And I appreciate you. And all of our other friends around the world we're serving in militaries that agree with us. I think I said this in the last vlog already, right? And if you're our enemy, well, you gotta reevaluate your life decisions. And we hope for a future of peace. So thanks for watching today, short little video. I'm just buzzing around the house. You're trying to get some stuff done. Still got a lot of work to do next weekend yet, but it is starting to look a lot like Christmas outside. And I know you Americans, I know. I know it's not hard, what about Thanksgiving? Eat some turkey first. I know you guys can wait. You guys wait, have your turkey day and then start Christmas. For us, we already had our turkey day. So full on Christmas in this house. Not all Canadians are like us. We're just a little hardcore. Thanks for watching.

St. Nusha has recorded a total of 25 COVID-19 cases to date. 22 of these cases have fully recovered and three patients remain in care at the respiratory hospital and remain stable. A total of 3,548 tests have been conducted to date. Two of the patients have recovered clinically and do not have any signs and symptoms of COVID-19. However, they still record positive COVID-19 test results. The last confirmed case is an 86-year-old gentleman who is recovering well in care. All of the family members, friends and healthcare workers that have been disclosed to the contact tracing team have been screened and tested and to date the results have been negative. The health team continues to monitor and investigate for the source of infection. As we continue with the phase reopening of the country, the risk for introduction of COVID-19 is increased. The public is advised that all of the protocols are still in place, including the reduced numbers for public transportation and the protocols for the private sector establishments. These also include the use of face masks in public places and to maintain safe physical distances from others. The Ministry of Health will once again reiterate the importance of quarantine for returning nationals and visitors as it is a good measure to minimize the risk of the transmission of COVID-19. And it is with this we ask that everyone adheres to the 14-day quarantine time and also for persons to stay in quarantine for the full period. This action is expected to protect the health and the safety of every individual within our country. We also appeal to everyone to continue to support our national effort to minimize the threat of COVID-19 on our island. We continue to advise as always the importance of the standard recommendations for infection prevention and control. These include regular hand washing if soap and water or the use of hand sanitizer when soap and water is not available and also to cover your mouth and nose with disposable tissues when coughing and sneezing. The Ministry of Health will continue providing regular updates on COVID-19.


Yeah poo bear yes, what are you doing? I am walking the newest member of the bear family. Yeah Yeah, and who's that? It is Kelsey. Kelsey. Hi She's what she's an eight-year-old boxer boxer a real boxer a real box registered in all Huh, she is a KC a KC. We got her from a family that just couldn't take care of her no more Well, they could take care of her, but they just weren't around the house enough and their apartment was too small so We decided to adopt her and We're taking her for her first walk. Yeah Is she strong yes, she is I don't know how many walks she did on a leash for them She hasn't barked much has she no she has she's a very good dog, and she's very smart Okay, all right Bye see bear. I'm gone. They're good girls All right, bye guys


Just because power couple Will and Jada Pinkett Smith already own eight or more properties doesn't mean they've stopped purchasing luxury real estate. Just last month, it was reported that the Smiths dropped over $11 million on a newly built Napa Modern-style home in Hidden Hills, not too far from their longtime main residence. Their $42 million custom compound is located just outside Calabasas and it boasts Moroccan-inspired vibes inside with earthy tones and rich colors throughout. Today, we'll check out where Will and Jada call home, including their newest purchase. In these videos, we don't reveal any addresses, and even though I've done a house tour of my own place, please do not show up at any private residences because it's not safe for anyone. They may have surprised fans when they recently revealed their marriage was non-monogamous, but it's no doubt that Will Smith and Jada Pinkett Smith are a power couple to be reckoned with. Together, the pair has not only created a beautiful family, but they've also built an empire with a whopping net worth estimated at over $370 million. Hey guys, it's Care The Vampire Slayer back with another exclusive house tour here on Famous Entertainment, this one checking out the brand new home of Will and Jada Pinkett Smith. Be sure to subscribe and ring that bell for notifications because we post brand new content daily. As always, you can follow me over on Instagram if you want to chat, and now let's get into this video. Obviously, the Smiths don't need another mansion considering they already own multiple across the U.S. and live in an estate so massive that it has its own zip code. Regardless, just this fall, Will and Jada reportedly shelled out $11.3 million for a stunning estate in the famed Hidden Hills neighborhood of Los Angeles. Their neighbors' exclusive community will include the likes of Jeffree Starts, and of course much of the Kardashian-Jenner clan and the Smiths' new property while it spans 1.19 acres of land. The mansion was built new in 2020 and covers two levels as well as 10,417 square feet of space. It's described as Napa Modern in the design style and it's tucked at the ends of a street behind a long driveway providing the ultimate in security and privacy. Will and Jada can enjoy plenty of open-plan living spaces here alongside six bedrooms and 7.5 bathrooms. There are endless options of rooms to entertain in while sliding glass walls allow for an indoor-outdoor vibe and a lot of sunlight. The front door is also glass allowing for views straight through the house to the outdoor space. There's double height entryway with stairs leading to the upper level and most of the interiors while they follow a neutral colored and contemporary theme. Will and Jada can kick back in the airy living room which features a fireplace and wall-mounted TV and this space adjoins the kitchen. The gourmet kitchen here is roomy and has two islands, one with bar cell seating and one more ideal for food prep. There's also a butler's pantry and a full wall of glass sliders out to a patio. While this house will seem massive to most of us normal folk, Smith's main residence is a 100-acre compound so this property may be meant for cosier moments and a bit of a retreat. The main level also has a large dining room with glass-encased wine fridge for hosting guests in style and elsewhere there's a formal sitting room and games room with billiards table, wet bar and serving window. When Will and Jada want to watch themselves on the big screen, they can do so in the comfort of their own home. As of course, there's a custom-built theater with upholstered velvet walls as well as plush seating. Another cool feature in this crib is the home gym with its own steam shower. All six of the bedrooms have all-in-sweet baths while the master-treat boasts a fireplace sitting lounge, two dressing rooms as well as a built-in refrigerator and a coffee bar. Moving through the many glass doors out to the grounds of Will and Jada's new crib, there are stone patios perfect for entertaining outdoors as well as a full outdoor kitchen with barbecue. The infinity pool also comes with a spa and other bonuses out back include a sitting area with fire pit, sports court and a serenity lounge which seems like it's a yoga and meditation space. Trees also surround the property for even more privacy. Considering the Smith's main residence has a one-of-a-kind custom design inside, they may hire someone to reimagine this new residence as well. But since we mentioned their main home, why don't we just take a look for ourselves? As we already established, Will and Jada's longtime main mansion is epic. So epic, in fact that it has its own zip code and it looks more like a resort from aerial views. For such a massive space, the Smith family home is quite intimate and homey, mostly because that's the vibe Will wanted to create in the first place. Located in Calabasas, another celeb-filled neighborhood, the Smith compound sits on 150 acres of land and inside, since 25,000 square feet of space. Of course, there's an impressive number of rooms throughout the $42 million crib, including 9 bedrooms and 13 bathrooms. Will and Jada had everything at their family home, custom made by woodworkers, stone masons and more, while the architect Stephen Samuelson took on the project of designing this place. Construction began way back in 2003 and didn't finish until the end of 2010. Will said about his home, Everything needed to be done by hand. We wanted to feel the love and labor that went into every piece of this place. More recently, just this year, a fire actually broke out at the residence and things are currently being fixed up. However, the fire was contained to only certain areas of the property. The interiors of the power couple's mega mansion is very earthy with an adobe style.  One of the living rooms in the mansion boasts views of the hills and an open concept, as well as touches from around the world to match the vibe of the rest of the home. The dining room has an orange color scheme with wood accents, as well as a handcrafted table, while the kitchen boasts an island, large pantry and breakfast room. Other highlights in Will and Jada's main mansion include an atrium with a bar, a bowling alley, a recording studio, a crafts room, and even what's called a potting room for cutting flowers. The home movie theater here is located in its own cinema wing, and it's reportedly designed in a Moroccan theme. The cinema wing boasts media storage, a projection booth, screening room, men and women's bathrooms, as well as another lounge. Moving outside, of course, there's a pool and plenty of space to enjoy sports, such as a full basketball court, volleyball court, tennis courts, and even a trampoline. Behind the sprawling home, there's a tea house gazebo, as well as a small man-made lake with gorgeous fuses and an island, which apparently drew the smiths to the property. That gazebo that sits by the lake is apparently Will's favorite spot because he goes there to think, and he's even said that answers come to him out there. According to records, that smith compound also has a gymnasium that spans over 11,000 square feet with a greenhouse, and other goodies include a steam room, dressing room, and spa. The 150-acre property also offers 70 acres of open space, which the smith pinkit family dedicated to public access and conservation, which includes streams, woods, with more than 100 oak trees, marsh areas, and a 20-foot-wide hiking and equestrian trail. So now we've checked out where Will and Jada Pinkit Smith call home, including their latest purchase in Hidden Hills and their longtime main mansion. The family also maintains properties in Woodland Hills, California, and Pennsylvania, and Maryland, and a luxury ski chalet in the winter resort town of Park City, Utah. Out of the two we checked out, which home was your favorite? The main smith house is obviously super unique and welcoming, but their new place, well, that one's a bit more my style. Be sure to let me know your thoughts down in the comments. Thanks for watching. Don't forget to follow me on Instagram to chat, and I will see you all in the next video. Bye!


Only one game stood between the Boston University Men's Basketball team and the NCAA tournament. But after last week's championship loss to American University, the Men's Basketball team is now recalibrating their focus and instead preparing for the still coveted National Invitational tournament. Well, we realize like everything doesn't go the way that is planned. So, you know, we have to just move on to the next game and just try to do the next best game, which is try to win the NIT. Typically in postseason play, home court advantage automatically goes to the higher seated team. But for number two, Illinois, third court's undergoing renovations, so that brings them here to Boston to take on number seven, BU, at a Gannis Arena. Students can't attend the game for free by getting tickets at a Gannis box office. For anyone wanting more information or to purchase tickets, they should visit goterriers.com. The home court advantage was not expected. Yeah, it was. How does that factor in? It's definitely big. We know the baskets. We have our fan base is going to be there. This is the first time BU has played in the NIT since three consecutive seasons from 2003 to 2005. This week, though, Big Ten's Illinois is anticipated to be a strong first round challenger. They really compete. They played really, really hard. They're playing their best basketball of the year right now. They lost eight games straight in their conference and it's one of the better conference in the country, but then they came on strong down the stretch, so it'll be a great test for us and we're really excited. The team thinks they have what it takes to make the second round, though, if they can just get past missing the NCAA. The challenge is getting double last week. That's the only challenge. We definitely bring in speed, agility, toughness, and we really have that will to win because after that tough loss to America in the other day, we have this new hunger and this new drive. The game will be broadcast live on ESPN 2 Wednesday at 7 o'clock Eastern. Reporting with BU News Service, I'm Ashley Davis.


Hello everybody, welcome back to my channel, it's Eva from Bohemian Crafting and today I'm actually not gonna share with you any craft video, I guess. I'm gonna share with you something what is happening to me last two weeks, the 15th of January I quit smoking. Yay, after 25 years of heavily smoking, I quit finally. My amazing Patreons went through to my journey to do quitting smoking for last nine months, I guess, when I was announcing, ooh, I'm quitting smoking, then I announced, ooh, I failed, and then I announced, I'm gonna try again, and then I, I don't know, ooh, I failed again, why? Oh, that was a road, but now I'm two weeks without a cigarette, and last two weeks I wasn't even able to create a journal, which was very surprising for me, I was able to do simple craft, craft like these little organisers, and I think it came to my mind just because I'm trying to clean my body from toxins, from very bad habits, like smoking is, and this was kind of like, you know, you're cleaning, you need to organise yourself as well, so I was able to do these simple things, I did also my ink swatches, I'm gonna show you what I have created, so I've been able to create these lovely swatches for my inks here, and it was just, again, very easy craft, something where I don't have to think, where I don't have to count centimetres and to control faults, if they will sit nicely in the journal, I don't even have to sown something somewhere, you know, I was able to do only simple craft, and it was just because my brain was overloaded or too much busy with that quitting smoking stuff, and that's what I would like to talk to you today, if you're kind of in the same position that you're trying to improve your health by quitting some wrong habits, and while the process of quitting those wrong habits, you lost the touch, that junk journal maker touch, and you're scared that, oh, what is happening to me, don't worry, you're not alone, it did happen to many of us, it did happen to me as well, and I was scared, oh, do I lose it totally, or what is happening, it's just a process of, you know, kind of saving your energy for fighting that bad habit, then the energy you normally put to journal making, it's for this reason, and do not get scared that you are losing your creativity, it will come back once you kind of getting to win that wrong habit, I am not saying that I won totally, I'm not there yet, I can fail again, it can happen, so 10 days, 2 weeks, yeah, it's 2 weeks actually, without cigarette, it doesn't mean that I totally quit, I know that now because I read many, many columns, many, yeah, many columns that people can get back, and I hope it will don't happen to me, because I'm pretty much very proud of myself after 25 years to hold on for 2 weeks, it's good, especially if I tried many, many times, this one it's actually first journal which I have created after quitting smoking, and it's kind of like, it's the journal which I wanted to always do, from left overs, which doesn't have some construction which I need to count, if you know what I mean, which is totally just jumped pack, or junk packed, just because every single piece you can see here, it would be junk for somebody else, it was old envelopes, it was old papers, it was baked papers, and you know, it was these little strips, so for somebody else, this would be junk, for me, it was left overs, and I know it would be junk for somebody else, because I had visits from my friend, who is not journal maker, who is not even crafter, her hobbies are movies and cinema and mall, so when she came to visit me, she was like, oh, where I am, and she was so scared of my room, like, what are you having here, she was like, oh my, do you need some physical, oh no, physical help from doctor, she didn't understand really, that was quite funny, and I was opening, oh my, my sons are very forgiven to me, so someone like my friend will through the bin, the papers, and once I put it together, and I showed her, she was like, oh, this is so cute, what is it, this is so cute, and she was amazed by this, and that was kind of rewarding to me, that finally I'm getting back to my craft, I'm getting back to that feeling that I don't need energy to fight my wrong habits, and I started to pull my boxes, and now I'm not surprised why she was scared of my room, because I finally see that as well, I do have in my, in my craft room, back again, boxes and bags and, and boxes and pilars of stuff like this, these are left overs from previous, previous work, from previous junk journal maker, and I do have it everywhere, literally, everywhere, under my bed, in my shelves, bags like this, where I do have stuff which I didn't use in previous journal, like here, oh, look at that, oh, look at these, oh I can use that in that journal, yeah, I'm here, I'm gonna, oh, these are awesome, see, these I didn't use in previous journal, I think it didn't fit inside, because it was probably overloaded, look at what I do have here, that can totally go in this grungy journal, why I didn't use that, oh, look at that, I do remember when I made these actually, so, stuff like this I do have everywhere, and now I'm not surprised that Florin was like, oh my, where are you? so, but her reaction to my journal was cute, was that right reward what I needed, like, I'm getting there, I didn't lose it totally, I just saved that energy for my fighting, what I would like to say, do not give up, do not give up even if you will fail, last year was released a movie, Dungeons and Dragons, if you haven't seen that, if you like fantasy movies, or if you are a fan of Dungeons and Dragons game, I hope you saw that movie, if you didn't see that yet, go to have a look, because it's such a beautiful movie, I saw it many times already, I bought it on Amazon, and I do have a save it in my, you know, in my playlist, and when I need to cheer up, I'm watching this movie, because it does have one sentence which I actually need it right now, there is, yes, I failed many times, and I will fail many times again, something like this, and if I will stop failing, I failed, that's the right sentence, I need it all that time, I'm gonna bring you something, to show you something what my son created for me, and I will kinda like continue with what I would like to say, so this is creation my son Jacob created for me, he wanted to learn junk journal making, and box making, and stuff what I do, and he didn't finish it because he got very busy in his own work, so this is creation from last year, and what is interesting, I've been chatting at that time with my lovely friend Janice, Janice Freeman, if you didn't see her channel, I'm gonna put a link down below, please go to have a look, it was very interesting, we've been chatting with Janice, and she wrote me, oh I'm working on this one right now, and I'm using herbs and bottles and herbs collection, and she showed me what she's working on, and I was like, wait a minute, I need to send you pictures what I am teaching my son Jacob right now, what he wanted to do right now, and the box, and the kinda like style of that box, it's very similar to Janice box, please go to have a look, because her apothecary box is a junk journal, it's awesome, I will put link down below, and we've been working on it like my son Jacob with my assistants, we've been working on it at the same time, without even knowing it, that Janice is working on quite similar things, that's how this amazing craft works, through this work, that we are kinda sending to each other ideas, I guess, by telepathy, you know, so, what I wanted to say, yeah, I'm watching the Dengens and Jagdans when I need that, and because of that, not just because of that sentence, but because the movie is beautiful, and what did help me was that sentence that, yes, I felt many times to quit my smoking, and my Patreons can tell you that that is true, I quit many, many times, and I failed many, many times, and I was kinda happy that I'm not stopping to try, you know, even if I quit many times, and I failed many times, I still didn't give up, I still told myself that, ooh, I can do it, I can do it, I'm not ready yet, but I can do it, I will get there to that point where I will stop smoking, I hope I will stay this way like I am now, because even I'm two weeks without cigarettes, it's not win-win yet, and I read many, you know, many columns that it's not win-win yet, it can fail again, I hope it will not please stay with me, send positive feelings, and I thank you so much for that, so, just jumping back to this creation, everything you see here, my son created, yes, with my assistant, I've been telling him what to do, and I did show him on small pieces what to do, but everything what you see here, he did it, amazing stitching and amazing sewing signatures, his signatures, I am so proud that he created this one, and I would like to use it for art journaling, and that's what I would like to share with you today, when I was in that, you know, that I wasn't able to create a journal, but I was still interesting in journal making, or in that art of journals, I found amazing, amazing artists on Instagram and on Pinterest, and I would like to share with you few of these amazing artists, one of them is José Naranja, when I saw his art, it was, wow, my jaw dropped down, because his art is unbelievable, it's incredible, he makes his own journals, and he then makes art journaling, the way I never saw before, incredible jaw inks, beautiful handwriting, I will put link down below for his Instagram, and when I was kind of like scrolling down through to his blog, and then through to his Instagram, I found another art journal maker, it's Skybombie, and her name is, oh, mine, Tretia Gogh?

Going to class. Should you do it? Well, what if I told you you actually didn't have to go to class? You could study faster and actually be done with your study day before most of your classmates are out of the lectures. Would you be interested? That's exactly what we'll talk about. Let's get into it. All right, guys, welcome to the channel. My name is Laksham, internal medicine physician, and this is the MD journey, a channel completely dedicated to helping students just like you succeed on their journey with less stress through study, test, productivity, and you name it. So if you're new here, definitely consider hitting that subscribe button, putting out two videos that are helpful just like this one. And if you enjoy the content, let me know by hitting that like button. It supports the channel that also tells me you enjoy this kinds of videos. Today, we are going to talk about going to class and honestly, the benefits of not going to class. I know a lot of you guys may have the option, you're not sure what to do. And if you do have the option, I'm going to give you a few things you should consider of why I'm going to class may not be the best thing for you. Let's get into it. You have to understand that a typical lecture format for 80 to 90% of most classes is very passive. It's the professor talking some slides, you did some reading before and you're hoping that them teaching you is going to help you retain the material doesn't unfortunately happen for most of us. In fact, if you just consider what you actively hear, even this video, you probably only remember about 30% of what you hear. That's you actually paying attention. So if you imagine going through three hours of lecture a day, you only remembered one of them. So two hours would basically waste it. And if you do that over a week, if you had 15 lectures, you may only have enough retention of about five of them. 10 of them you might as well not have gone to class in the first place. And so the beauty of not going to class is that if your lectures are recorded, you can use the concepts of things like speed listening, which I've made a video about before on the channel, you guys can check it out below. But most of us listened faster than most of us talk. In fact, you may be watching this video at an accelerated speed. I don't blame you, but make sure you hit that like button. Just tell me how many of you guys may be doing it. While the average person speaks at about 150 words per minute. Most of us probably listened to about 200 to 300 words per minute. So you can be twice as efficient. And if you're only going to remember 20 to 30% of it, you might as well get through that information quicker. So then you can do the study techniques that work better for you to remember the rest of the material. And the other beauty of speed listening to your lectures is not only would you be able to finish your lectures twice as fast, but you can use that extra bit of save time to now go back and refresh yourself on things in the lecture that didn't make sense, which you can't do in a natural class. You can't ask the professor to constantly go back and pause and reverse.  So using speed listening and not going to class and then being able to navigate to the parts of the material that didn't make sense to you is definitely going to be able to boost your grade in just a short bit of time. And as a quick example for me in the medical school, if you'd go through three hours of lectures, I could usually listen to most of them at about two and a half, if not three X. And that means that I could finish three hours of lecture in about an hour and a half-ish at least. So I had another hour and a half to either quickly go into my review, relax, go work out. But whatever it may be, I had an hour and a half that most of my medical school classmates did. And so that goes into benefit number two is that your day becomes so much more open and structured for you. One thing that's flawed about the educational system is that it's usually a nine to 12 break during lunchtime and then go back to it for lectures or more labs during the afternoon. But it basically assumes that all of us are the most optimal in terms of learning and our tension at the same times a day. Well, frankly, that's not true. You may learn better in the evenings doing your review materials or watching the lectures while I may be able to watch the lectures at five or six in the morning and be perfectly fine. All of us are a little bit different. And so instead, if you don't go to class, you can have a full day where you can structure where you work best. And in fact, one of the things that I love teaching about here on the MD journey as well as some of my study programs, which you guys can check out down below, is if you give yourself a full day or a more of a flexible day, you can find those open bits of time and ask yourself, well, where do I work best within these hours? And a quick kind of exercise that you can do is for two days straight, you know, throughout various ports of the day, go ahead and ask yourself on a scale of one to three, three being the most energized and most like enthusiastic and one being like, I'd rather go to sleep. Where do you find your energy levels to be at a three versus a one? A lot of us may find that are ones that are around like one to three p.m. in the afternoon where we just had a huge lunch and then like our energy level is just tanking anyways. And then you can go ahead and use step number two of trying to find your most optimal times, your most energized times to fit in your studying review. Now, but that's obviously going to become harder. If you go to class, you didn't have to and you realize that the nine to 12 is kind of your prime time to work. You could have used that to do a practice questions that require a lot of mental energy, but they would also be able to give you a lot of long term retention and help you on your final grade. And so as your day becomes more open and structured, you can personalize it to where you should study best. You can use extra bits of time where your energy may be lower to go do other more energetic things like working out or sleeping YouTube. And then your productivity goes up and your stress goes way. So those are definitely some benefits that I was able to use in medical school to help me study faster because I didn't have to feel like I had to drive back and forth to school. I was able to speed up my studying because I was able to use things like speed listening and then immediately get into my most desirable study techniques. And I will link down a few videos on how I study the medical school, start to finish in case you guys are interested. But the most important is I had so much more time for me to do things like the YouTube channel, the MD journey and just kind of chill. So if those things are attractive to you, definitely consider, you know, minimizing your class lecture attendance if it's not helping. But with that being said, I do want to mention a few benefits that do come with going to class. Number one is accountability. If you're somebody who struggles getting up and getting to your schedule and going to class forces you to learn the material, you know, going to class is obviously going to have a lot of benefits for you. Another benefit is you can get immediate feedback. So if you're confused about what the professor is teaching, you can definitely ask the question. If you're watching that lecture an hour later, unfortunately, you'll have to send an email and wait a little bit before that question could be answered. So interrupting the professor where appropriate is definitely going to be able to fill that gap of knowledge much quicker. So that way you're not confused later on. And other two is that you can obviously have a predictable schedule. So you kind of know what your day looks like. It kind of goes back to the element of accountability, but you also have that sensation of camaraderie. You see the same classmates and peers throughout the day. And I know definitely for me in medical school when I was a homebody and I would do a lot of my work from home, I may not see a lot of my classmates until test day. And it definitely becomes a degree of people who study at home and to how social their life may be with their classmates and their peers to the people who are obviously in the same class going to lunch together. So definitely keep that in mind. If you enjoy that social environment, then going to class intermittently or all the time may definitely help you out. But with that being said, understand that you can still navigate all of those things and still not go to class and still have the camaraderie with your peers. You can still become more disciplined and have a nice schedule without, you know, spending three hours that may not be effective. So if you guys want more videos on how to study better, how to stay focused, I'll link down a few down below. And then if you want to step by step study system on, you know, how to be able to take essentially what you're doing, but be able to use it and do it faster and get better grades, you can check out one of our programs that we have on the MD journey called level up your studying. A lot of students have gone through it. It's a three week program that's completely designed to take you to what's working, what's not working in your own study system and then learn ways to make it more perfect and personalized to use. So if you guys are interested in kind of transforming your study and your grades in a short amount of time, check that out down below. That's basically it for this video guys. Before you leave, make sure you comment down below. Do you go to class? Do you not go to class? Does it depend on the lecture or the professor that's teaching? I'm curious what you guys think.

And right up over here, all the streets here were part of the COPS projects, getting the streets fixed up. And the strainage up the road here, where the bridge is. Again, with a lot of this being done with CDBG money. Well, these are painted by the kids from the community here. I don't know exactly what they depict. Well, of course, you always see the vision of what I loop in. I went to the elementary school back here. There's an elementary called, named Clifton Rodriguez. It used to be called Ibaneau when I went. And we used to have to cross. It's like Breckenridge Park. We had that water crossing. Well, we had one over here to get to school because of Elmendorf Lake.


Γεια σας και καλωστάτε back. Είναι Vicky here with the new art journal layout. Σήμερα θα δουλειωθήσω με το watercolour disc bounded 6x6 journal και θα βρεις λινξι σε κάτι που χρησιμοποιηθώ, εγώ στον δικριπτιονέριο. Αυτό είναι το Distress Resist Spray by Tim Holtz και θα προσπαθήσω με το σημερινό μου επίπεδο, απλά με ένα στενσί. Αυτό είναι ένα στενσί by the Dilusions line και θα κάνω αυτό inside a box, να κάνω αυτό, επειδή αυτό είναι αρχαμένο καλύτερα και δεν θέλεις να παράξει καλύτερα όλα στη σύμφωση. Αυτό θα πάρω αυτό να σχεθώ και θα βασσω το στενσί μου και θα προσπαθήσω να μεταξύ με το σημερινό μου επίπεδο. Αυτό θα δείτε ότι η μάικα είναι όλα το σπίτι στον ποτών. Λαγηστείτε να σχεθεί τα μάικα σας ευγειδέντες πριν να σφαλείτε them. Ρογείαστε να υπάρχει μία μάικα σχεδιά στον ποτών. Ελπίζω να βρεις την αλλαγία. Βλέπω ότι όλα είναι καλύτερα μεταξύ εκεί και αυτή είναι η πληροφορία ευκαιρία, δεν ξέρω αν μπορείτε να δείτε την ευκαιρία, αλλά είναι πολύ καλύτερη, νομίζω ότι αυτή είναι probably my favorite from the whole line and it gives a beautiful shine on your project. You will see that later on. Here is a bottle from the original collection without the shimmer and you can see how the new bottles are smaller and they are cheaper, which means that for the same money you can get two of those colors and you can build up your collection easier. Now I'm going to put my page inside the box again and now I'm going to spray with three of the shimmer colors and I'm going to spray a little bit of water on my page all over which is going to help all those colors to blend nicely together. Now the three colors I'm using are pure sunshine, tangerine dream and bubblegum pink. Now you can leave this to dry. It's going to stay nice and vibrant or you can blot it with a cloth or a paper towel and it's going to turn more subtle. This is where you will be able to see the resist that I did with the spray in the beginning and look at all the shine that these sprays give on your project. Now as I always say, if you take good care of your products they will last you for a long time so it's a good habit to always wipe the nozzle before you put the caps back on. This will ensure that there is no mica in the nozzle that might clock your bottle for the next time you use it. This is a booklet by Dilusions and it has all those designs and quotes and I wanted to show you how easy it is to create a quick and easy page by just combining different designs from here. So I'm picking two of those and I'm going to stick those on my page but first I'm going to get rid of all that white space so I'm going to use my scissors to cut around those legs.  Now as you can see I have cut out all the legs, they are ready to go.  Now one of the questions that I get all the time is how I care about my brushes that have matte medium. I just dip my brush inside water and I leave it there. Matte medium is water soluble so it's going to be ok and I can wash my brush when I finish my project. From this coloring page I want to use only the central design so I'm using again my scissors to separate it. Now I'm planning to place this just on top of those legs and I want to add some shine on this strip of paper so I want you to see here where the maga is all the way to the bottom. Make sure to shake shake shake until everything is nicely mixed up. The two colors that I will be using are fresh lime and calypso teal. So you see how nicely they are mixed up now I'm going to bring in my box again. You don't have to use a box. I just don't like spraying all over the place and making a mess on my table. So first I'm spraying with water and then I will use my dilution sprays. You don't have to do that but I find that it helps the colors blend nicely together.  Put on the cups Now I'm going to give it a quick hit just to make sure that everything is nice and dry before I move on to the next step. And you can see how shiny it is. Now it's time to use again my matte medium. I'm taking that brush that I used before making sure that it's nice and dry and then I will apply my matte medium. I'm doing that because I don't want to transfer too much water on my page. So now I will dip my brush again in the water and let it sit there.  Now Ranger sent me a box full of products and I did an unboxing video which I am going to link at the end of this video so you can take a look at it and I'm trying to work on this page by mainly using products from that box. So I'm going to add a shade of flesh on the legs and for that I'm working with my archival ink. They are not meant to be used with water but you can see that you can work it out and here I managed to create a flesh tone just by combining two colors and these are chrome yellow and sepia. Now to color all these legs I'm going to use again my new shimmer sprays but this time instead of using them as sprays I'm going to create my own palette. So I have these pipettes but just a drop of the colors that I want to work with and by the way I have tons of those pipettes they are really inexpensive and I'm going to show you later how you can clean them and use them again and again. The five colors I used in the order that you see them are calypso teal fresh lime pure sunshine polished jade and tangerine dream. Now my palette is ready and a little goes a long way you will see that I have way more than I actually need and I'm going to clean my pipettes all you have to do is just use a little bit of water I didn't even bother to bring clean water and I actually have hundreds of them they only cost a few dollars and you will have pipettes for the rest of your life. I'm actually going to bring in the box here so you can see how many I have and now with my brush I'm going to color in everything you don't have to be perfect remember this is just an art journal it's for fun if you go outside the lines it's ok and what I love about those sprays is that they are actually translucent so it doesn't cover up the lines and they are great for coloring black and white images and you can see that a little goes a long way you can put all those droplets back if you use the pipettes or just use them on another project so we used the sprays to color which are actually translucent and now I'm going to show you another medium from the Dilusions line these are the paints the paint pens by Dilusions and they have a very fine tip nib and the right opaque on top of anything so this is actually acrylic paint inside and you can see how it writes nicely on top of black I'm using these pens to add some doodling there I'm also going to add some details on the legs now if you watch the unboxing video I did of all the Ranger products that I got you will see there how I prep those pens and I'm also sharing there a few tips and tricks on how you can keep them in great condition so make sure to check it out I will link it at the end of this video now all I'm doing is adding a little doodling and you can never stop with that so let's move on to the next step which is adding the quote and in this booklet there are many quotes those fun quotes by Dilusions that we are all used to and I decided to go with one that says if it doesn't make you feel fabulous don't do it, don't bite, don't keep it I'm using my scissors to cut out all the little strips and then I'm going to stick them down I'm using tape adhesive to do so and then I'm going to add some black art medium or any other type of glue so that's it, my page is actually ready of course you can go back and add even more details if you want to with your paint pens here I'm just working with my pens to add highlights and shading on all those legs and then finally I'm going to use my black the page on my art journal so I'm just pressing inside those discs and I have already the second page on my journal so that was the project for today I hope you had fun, you got inspired and here are some close up photos of the project that I did today don't forget to take a look on the unboxing video it's lots of fun and I share lots of tips on how you can use these mediums thank you all for watching and I'll see you next time
