Ola was saying yesterday when we were asking a lot of defensive chances that his first prior special team he's got to get punt return, kick return, set and he's not that worried about the defensive. You've got to be excited to hear that. Yeah I mean that's one thing we talked about and obviously we understand that guys want to play more offensively and defensively but they can't you know forget where they came from and we had a nice little talk with Ola he understands that stuff but we're excited for him to get that opportunity but you know we still hopefully he can play at a high level on special teams. With the rushing attack they say there's a crease like they'll see it it's close and they'll keep going at it for you on the return game are you guys getting close it's been a while since we had a return you guys getting closer? Yeah you know what that's one thing that we're going to continue to work on more and more this week because we've got to do a much better job on our kickoff return whether it's coaching whether it's executing you know punt return yeah we feel like we're getting close to hitting a crease kickoff return we still have a ways to go and that's why we're going to have a big time focus this week on getting that straight so we can get field position for our offense. Spawn the way he did you know just with the team seven days by Sunday and for him to come in there you know play well hit the game winning field goal for you guys just have kind of how cool was that for him? It was awesome very proud of him for coming in here being a professional you know taking coaching and him going out there and us having the confidence in him making that field goal and him having the confidence in himself it was just great you know seeing that smile on his face after he makes that game winning kick just just really happy for the guy because you know he's been through a lot whether it's through Houston, Cincinnati, Detroit now he gets to us just just really excited for him. When he makes a game winner like that does it kind of give a little confidence to the whole unit got maybe stabilized things a bit? Well yeah I think it gives the confidence in the whole team you know that we have someone who can go out there and make kicks and you know he's going to build that confidence through practice and then obviously when he goes out there and executes it during a game that's going to give the confidence to the unit and our whole team so we're going to continue to work on that hopefully Randy feels really confident in himself which I think he does and you know hopefully he can continue to build on what he did last week. For sure I mean that's what we showed all week and we brought up some stats for the guys and just understand that we obviously need to be better at that particular unit and I've got to coach it better but it's going to we're going to have a little bit incentive because people are just going to hang the ball up there and say hey we're going to dare you to return it so we got to do a much better job of executing and coaching and hopefully we'll get back on track this week. Yeah so you know we have a few things Jim that we like doing to it that I'm going to kind of keep to myself a little bit but you know we want Randy to go out there and have confidence in whatever he's going to do and whether he's going to get ice through a time out or they're just going to let him kick you know we want him to have the same routine that he goes over and over again whether it's kicking a 31 yard field goal with an extra point or a 53 yarder we want him to have the same routine so whether he gets iced or not and I know there's different types of stats of whether people are going to ice or not or they're just going to have him kick we just want him to have the same routine. How does that whole process work like pre-game all the way to the point where you're letting the OC know okay Randy wants it on this hash or this how does that work? So it begins during during the week you know coach for able will ask myself like hey where does Randy like it and Randy is confident in himself he doesn't matter to him right left hash middle it doesn't matter but then when you go over and then you're playing in Seattle where there's a bunch of wind it could go left to right right to left in your face behind your back we always communicate during second quarter and even the fourth quarter where I will go to Vraves Todd hey listen this is where he wants he wants on the left hash this week or now because the wind's going a certain way he's got to have it on that certain hash so we communicate throughout the course of the game with coach Vrable and Todd about that. Does this kind of like an extended audition for Randy or to Sam you know when Sam is healthy is the job Sam's again. Well I think we're just going to go day by day with it you know not promising anybody anything you know Sam did have a good training camp did have a good pre-season Randy came in here and did a good job for us so I think we'll take that day by day once Sam is ready to get back at it. When you prepare for the Colts what are some of the things that they do well that maybe make sure the most concern going in. Yeah I mean just taking a look from what they do last year and even this year obviously you know they blocked a punt on us last season so we've got to be prepared to handle multiple fronts a lot of twist games certain things like that because they're going to come after the punter so we got to be able to do a great job of protecting Brett and let Brett punt the ball and hopefully flip the field so we've got to be prepared for that but they got a great group of core players that we got to handle those guys and then the returners are dangerous too you know Hines obviously is a really good running back when he has the hands the ball in his hands he's dangerous and even Rogers is a really good kickoff returner so they got a great core group I think Bubba Ventrone does a really good job and I've known Frank and right for a while and I know you know he really puts an emphasis on special teams too I mean yeah we will obviously talk to him about certain things which we already have but you know every season is different you know every game is different so you know the thing that we end up talking to him more about and guys who come from different players how's their personnel like what are they like you know what do they like to do in certain things so those are the things that we'll end up doing but every game is going to be different so we'll see how it ends up. Do you have guys that show up here that have never played special teams before and what's that process like for them as they how long has it really taken to get comfortable doing it? Well I think the biggest thing is is we have to sit down and talk with him early on when a guy's never played special teams and he's been the best player on their team offensively or defensively we have to have a nice little sit down talk to him about you know what your role is going to be and once we end up setting that role for them that's going to help them out so it'll start in the offseason training camp and once they continue to get more reps at it and we continue to talk to him about their role I think that ends up helping out. Now some guys get it really early some guys get a little bit later so it's all individually based and hopefully they can get it quicker than not.


Ok, so why am I crawling around under a 12 year old Honda? Two reasons, one my missus won't let me crawl around under her car and I'm trying to locate my petrol tank for the purposes of this week's scandal video. There it is, my car has a hybrid so around here is the battery pack and that takes up some space. As such my car does have a rather small petrol tank. Anyways, design around this part of the car are pretty vital in the case of a rear end collision because you don't want an explosion, like one infamous model of the 1970s. Whilst I'm here just look at how unrusty this exhaust is, amazing considering its lived most of its life ungaraged in the salt world known as the UK. My mum's Astra is a similar age and is on its third back box. Ok, well enough of me talking about irrelevant stuff about my car, today's video will be about the Ford Pinto and its association with notoriety of having an exploding fuel tank. This scandal would work its way into popular culture, even becoming the butt of many a joke. But the story probably isn't as clear as you may think. Part 1, the little carefree car. So our story begins during a period in the US car market of what you would call a shake up. Small sized import cars had been making inroads throughout the 1960s. They offered cheap economical motoring. With the likes of Toyota and its Corolla, Datsun with its 510 and the big one the VW Beetle. Other manufacturers would flood in later on in the beginning of the 1970s with Honda and its in my eyes gorgeous first generation Civic. Domestic manufacturers started augmenting their land yacht fleets with smaller cheaper to run models. Amongst the US car makers that attempted to fight the influx of foreign cars was Ford. Their plan was to draw upon its worldwide operations and release a European model in the US market. This birthed the Ford Cortina, a captive import of the same named UK vehicle. By the late 1960s Ford set out to build from scratch a new subcompact vehicle for the US market. This was an industry-wide trend with AMC and Chevrolet also penning new subcompact designs around the same time. Planning began on Ford's new offering in 1967 of which his design was approved by Ford's Board of Directors in January 1969. Named to the Pinto, the car would be targeted at a sub-$2,000 price point, wishing today's money is about a mid-slash-top-range Dacia-Sandero stepway. The car, as requested by Ford's vice president at the time, Lee Iococca would have a weight below a tonne and on top of that would have to come to market pretty quickly. As a side note, Iococca would become president of Ford in 1970. As such, the development cycle was rather short at the time for 25 months. The car's quick development was achieved by setting the design and sticking to it early on, thus allowing bodywork machining tools to be going into production whilst the interior was still in its planning stages. The car's structural integrity was from its unibody design. The car would come over its life in a number of different body styles, including a two-door saloon, a two-door hatchback and a two-door station wagon. Although when initially entering the market on the 11th of September 1970, it was only offered as the two-door saloon. It was marketed as the little carefree car, but I have gotten a little ahead of myself. We need to look at the car's fuel system. Part 2. Somewhere to put a tank. So the late 1960s would be a strange time to develop a new car in the USA. A new set of regulations would come out on the 1st of March 1967 and this was called the Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standards. They would cover a variety of design requirements, including front-end crash-worthiness. A couple of years later in 1969 proposed testing would next focus on rear-end collisions. All good so far, eh? Well yes and no. Yes for the public, but no for the manufacturers. Especially when you're in the middle of a car's development cycle. This was the case for the Pinto. As a rear-end collision test would require changes to the car's design. The proposed test involved a 20 mile an hour moving barrier collision. This thawed thought they could achieve. The car's petrol tank was placed in the generally industry standard behind the bumper and in front of the rear axle. That rear bumper wasn't really designed to stop any significant impact. And to add insult to injury, the rear of the car was also meant to crumple in a collision. This essentially put the tank between the solid front end of another car and the solid axle of the Pinto in the case of a rear-end collision. There was also 4 bolts on the differential case on the rear axle which were very likely to puncture the tank. So imagine this coke can is the tank. Then imagine the floor is the axle. This piece of paper is the Pinto's rear bumper and my size 11 boot is the car impacting from the rear. So hopefully my very scientifically accurate demonstration shows the issues the tank had. But wait, there is a little bit more. You see internal four crash tests discovered a few more issues apart from the obvious albeit industry standard tank placement. The fuel tank ruptured in all tests above 25 miles an hour. Emptying the tank of fuel in some cases as little as a minute. They also found that the fuel filipipe would detach from the thin metal fuel tank, helping create that quick spillage time. Engineers at Ford set about trying to rectify the issue. There was a few options to pursue. How about moving the tank to above the axle? Not a bad idea. That was the setup in the Capri after all. But sadly this relatively easy redesign wouldn't work on the hatchback and station wagon. And due to the tooling already being made, a serious change in the car's body shell would not go down well for Ford Management's career trajectory. Iacocca had set out a strict turnaround time for the Pinto as well as its cost and weight limits. There was a couple of other options open to the engineers. There was an internal fuel tank bladder. It wasn't to be again as it would add cost. Then there was the idea to install extra reinforcement to protect the filipipe. But again weight and cost restraints shot that one down. Finally there was also a small $1 piece of plastic that could be placed between the tank and the differential. And this could stop the bolts puncturing the tank. Great, but to no surprise to anyone, it wasn't implemented again due to weight and cost concerns. The cost to improve the car in a rear crash was estimated to be around $11. But why spend out if you don't have to? Especially when the car's production line was already being set up. 3. Pinto leaves you without warm feeling So we are back to 1970 and the Pinto is released for the 1971 lineup of Ford vehicles. Their import-busting car has a rather attractive entry price of $1850, undercutting one of Ford's domestic rivals, the Chevrolet Vega. The car's first year sold over 350,000 units. After the lineup expanded to include the hatch a year later, sales jumped to 480,000 units in 1972. The lineup welcomed Ford's first four-door station wagon in a decade. 1974 would be the car's best year selling, with over 500,000 units rolling off of Ford Forecourt. One of the cars many advertising tag lines was, the Pinto leaves you without warm feeling, while I'm sure the marketing department wouldn't realise how fitting a line that would be. Sadly, with so many Pintos on the road, some would crash, and some of these would be from rear-end collisions, and some of these some would be causing a fire, and thus some people would die. Quickly, these incidents would garner legal cases, as it was noticed that the Pintos seemed to be a little bit flamey when hit from the rear. The NHTSA would also take notice and start considering launching an investigation. But out of all the crashes, one in May 1972 would result in the car's dodgy design being laid bare for the public to see in a landmark lawsuit. Lily Gray is driving her Ford Pinto. She has a 13-year-old passenger, Richard Grimshaw. As the car begins to merge on a Californian highway, the relatively new car's transmission conks out. Soon enough, the car grinds to a halt. The sudden stop resulted in the Gray's Pinto being rear-ended at a speed of 30mph. The petrol tank became ruptured, and began leaking fuel onto the floor, and vapours into the cabin. The car burst into flames. Gray would die in hospital a few hours later of her burns, but Grimshaw would survive, but it would require many years of surgeries. This would eventually lead to two court cases in 1977, but we'll have to pause that and come back to that in a little bit. So by 1974, the Centre for Auto Safety was very much aware of the issue with the Pinto, as well as other subcompact cars going up in flames when hit from behind. The consumer, advocacy, non-profit group petitioned the NHTSA to investigate and order a recall for the Pinto. But they thought that no recall was required, likely due to industry pressure. Around the same time, Ford was aware of the Pinto's ever-growing explosive reputation, and they internally developed a cost-to-benefit analysis in 1973. Although it was not meant for eyes outside of the industry, it would eventually be outed for the public to see. It would balance off the cost of modifying Pinto's to not explode upon rear impact against the cost to society of a victim being burnt alive. Long story short, this memo analysis showed that it would be cheaper to not modify Ford's fleet, but it's not as black and white as it seems. The analysis found that fuel system modifications to reduce fire risks in rollover events to be $11 per car across 12.5 million cars and light trucks across all manufacturers. This would be a total of $137 million. The design changes could save up to 180 burn deaths and 180 serious injuries per year, bringing a benefit to society of $49.5 million. This resulted in an $87.5 million saving to not do anything. But remember this was across all manufacturers and society as a whole, but it still gave Ford the incentive to not bother to change anything. Part 4 Pinto Madness So remember when I said that I'll come back to that 1972 crash of Lily Gray's Pinto? Well, a lawsuit was brewing, both from the Gray's family and the Grimshaw family, that was the 13 year old passenger.  Two cases would be brought against Ford, with the main being Grimshaw vs Ford. During preparation for the court case, that cost of benefit analysis memo came back to light. It had actually been sent to the Department of Transport a few years earlier when Ford was fighting increased rear crash protection, as a form of proof that fiery death wasn't a big issue. So with all this information coming to the public realm, Mother Jones magazine received the infamous cost of benefit memo. Mark Dowey set about penning his investigative article named Pinto Madness. The article would go on to shock the public as it presented Ford as cold and calculating with the lives of its customers. I mean it wasn't wrong, but the way the memo was presented in the article was a little bit inflammatory, by misconstruing the numbers to mean Ford only vehicles and the NHTSA provided numbers for cost to society as a Ford generated number. It also didn't go too deep into the fact that fuel tank location, although Ford was used rather a lot across the board in US subcompact car manufacturing. However, although Ford, the Mother Jones article exposed Ford for knowingly selling a faulty product. By the time the magazine had been published, Ford was actually making adjustments to its Pinto's design, albeit seven years a bit too late. A day after the Mother Jones article was released, the author held a press conference. Around the same time, the Centre for Autosafety resubmitted their petition to the NHTSA. With the public's interest focused on the NHTSA, a new investigation was embarked upon on 11th August 1977. This time around, the investigation would be a lot more critical for Ford, and by June the next year, a voluntary recall was negotiated. And Ford called back their vehicles just a few days before the NHTSA was planning to order a compulsory recall. This resulted in 1.5 million Pinto's and Mercury Bobcats being recalled for remedial work. But, all whilst this was undergoing, Ford was still answering multiple lawsuits, most notably that Grim showcase. Well, it would be initially decided in February 1978 for a record setting $125 million in punitive damages and $2.8 million in compensatory damages. The judge reduced the jury's punitive damages award to $3.5 million, but this was still a lot of money for 1978. The result was affirmed as appeals court in 1981. So the whole scandal was a bit of a mix back. Ford was rushing the Pinto to market, but it wasn't really a radical design. As such, it inherited all the downfalls of a full size car, but with the small crush zones of a subcompact. Officially, 27 deaths are linked to the Pinto fires. Many more were severely wounded. The number of fatalities is likely conservative due to the way road traffic accident deaths were reported. However, it is unlikely to be as high as the Mother Jones article speculated at between 500 and 900 burn deaths. The scandal also resulted in Ford's rivals to rethink their subcompact designs, showing that the problems weren't solely a Ford issue, but an industry-wide one. However, where Ford suffered was in its public image, especially with that controversial memo. Car designs did evolve thankfully. As well, they had to, especially when your feet could be held to the fire in a very expensive lawsuit. The last Pinto would roll off the production in 1980 to be replaced by a more modern front-wheel drive transverse engine design. The Pinto went down in history not only as a dangerous car, but also just a rubbish one, much like in my mind to the UK's Rover 100 or Metro. So that's my video on the Ford Pinto.

Hello my beautiful internet friends welcome back. Thank you for joining me for what I think will be a very interesting video This is something that always fascinates me And I know a lot of people disagree with responding to comments that you personally don't think are particularly fabulous We can call them hate comments. I don't think they're hateful. I just think that they're unkind comments But one came in yesterday that I thought was very worthy of addressing now to balance things out We're gonna do two things first of all We're gonna play with some puppies and take them to get some puppuccino If you don't know what that is prepare to smile because it's a super super happy event for my little puppy dogs And secondly, we are gonna read five additional comments that are friggin fantastic that made my day and made me smile But there is one that I think needs to be talked about and so that's what we are going to do today But first let's get these puppies some puppuccinos. I'll be honest guys They're they're really good dogs and then they deserve some treats Do it. Oh my goodness You're gonna help me drive monkey you're gonna help me dry So I've got a couple good puppies here in the car could I get two puppuccinos by any chance? Yeah Thank you. Did you hear that puppy? I appreciate it. Oh, thank you back it up No monkey So if you don't know a puppuccino is basically just whipped cream because it's perfectly safe for puppy dogs Oh, you gotta wait you gotta wait and they love it Oh pretty good puppy We got some happy puppies and now it's time for the for the fun part of the video my favorite part personally the comments We're gonna start with with the fun one a Toast of espresso to you my lovely internet friends as you join me on a journey through a very fascinating message I received yesterday on a video that I posted Listen, I know I know that everyone says you should not respond to comments that you don't like But personally, I don't agree with that ideology I think that it's a good chance for communication for conversation and also to correct some negative Stereotypes some negative communication points viewpoints and this is definitely one of those for me It's not like it's anything like cuts me deeply when I read something like this But it brings up a very important thing that I think needs to be addressed If you are a subscriber of mine, you might know about the series I recently made a two different videos ten things I wish I knew before I became an amputee Side note if you are not a subscriber I would love it if you'd consider becoming one and help me beat my friend Erin to my goal of 200,000 subscribers before he gets there dang it, but those videos got a very positive response I really appreciate that there was one comment that caught my eye yesterday though And this is what it said actually before I put that up on screen a little bit of context If you haven't watched those videos, I will recommend that you take a look at them And I'll post them down below What I said in the video that this person has responded to essentially two things first of all I said that comedy humor has been really helpful for me dealing with his major life change like Making fun of myself my friends making fun of me making jokes about losing a limb Stupid foot puns like one foot in front of the other and I don't have a leg to stand on and just all of that stuff Really helps me deal with things and I said if amputee jokes aren't your thing cool But for me they've really helped at another point in the video I talked about a t-shirt that I made that said I can see you staring at me And it's kind of a joke right because when you go out in public and you're missing a leg and people can tell They stare at you. It's part of the game. That's okay. I've talked about this at length in other videos It's part of being a curious human however It does make people uncomfortable and I made that shirt as kind of a joke And I catch people staring at me and then seeing the shirt kind of being like I don't know what to do And it makes it fun for me. I'm sorry. I'm not sorry. So context-given. Let's dive in So many a position making jokes to lighten the conversation actually horrifies me I see right through it and the hopelessness and horror I feel is real to me it feels like you gave up or you don't take your life seriously I know from your view this doesn't make any sense But you have to consider the fact you have on others. So let's pause there first of all I totally get that I think humor often does mask helplessness or horror I think it's a fantastic coping mechanism to deal with the craziest things that life hands us sometimes when we do feel helplessness or horror Those are real feelings underlying Comedy or humor that doesn't mean that we shouldn't use comedy or humor It just means that some people might not appreciate it. That's totally fine, too However, let's continue and digest this a little bit further Guess what I'm saying is it would be easier if you said it how it was and not sugarcoat it or Stay out of the public eye if you have problems with people looking at you That's some tough shit you live on this earth with others and you need to respect that I also realize that this is my interpretation and if I read something wrong, please correct me But this is how I hear what they are saying and the reason that I'm talking about this is because I think that there is a Very specific point that they bring up that is very harmful that is often perpetuated in our society They're high that I really think should be eradicated and that is the idea of basically Erasing yourself from the public if you do not fit the mold, right?  It is Extraordinarily frustrating to me when people try to tell other people who have experienced some kind of significant Trauma grief hardship fill in the blank how they're supposed to be to make other people more comfortable I've had a lot of experience with this in my own life as someone who has gone through a handful of pretty nasty things, right? Oftentimes in conversations, there's this underlying level of what you need to be to be palatable to other people and what this person is hinting at basically is I need to be aware that if I'm making jokes about my own situation my own loss of limb My own Difficulty literally my own life and my own body I need to be aware that it could negatively affect other people and for the record I absolutely am I'm not a jerk about it However, my primary concern is not how I deal and how I process with my own loss and my own grief Affects people outside of myself and my immediate friends and family that is not saying that I don't consider feelings and emotions But that is to say that I have absolutely no obligation To make myself more comfortable to you Let me explain what I mean by that with an example. So when I went through the sexual assault that I experienced I was a Basket case. I was a mess. I was not the same person I was upside down, right and a lot of people told me how I should be how I should respond what I should and shouldn't do Because I wasn't simple anymore, right? I was having a hard time.  Please understand that that's not the message here But what I am saying is that the primary concern when you are going through something significant should not be becoming more palatable to society I've received a small handful of comments and let me stress that I don't know how many comments I've gotten on my videos many many thousands I'd probably say well over a hundred thousand and there have been a handful of comments of people being like you you Shouldn't show your leg. That's gross. I don't want to see it So you should put it away basically, right? It's making me uncomfortable to optionally go watch your video So stop it.  I absolutely respect other people's discomfort I respect boundaries. However, I am the one who has gone through something significant in this Situation right here right now. I am the one who has lost a leg I am the one who is trying to figure out a way to cope with life and pick up the pieces and figure out what a new normal is and Figure out who I'm gonna be in all of that, right? In this specific case in this specific scenario It is my job to figure that out for myself It is not my job to determine what is comfortable for you when it comes to me healing if it doesn't actually affect you Joking about my situation Sincerely helps me so I'm gonna keep doing it and if you watch my other videos You know that I also don't sugarcoat things for a long time going out in public made me incredibly uncomfortable because of all the stairs Occasionally it still does I'm still gonna go out in public and I'm still gonna be uncomfortable sometimes and those things are okay It's not tough shit.  It's I'm allowed to have emotions I'm allowed to have feelings. I'm allowed to make jokes about it I'm allowed to have a hard time and the reason I'm saying all of this is because so are you so often the primary concern When someone has gone through something traumatic or is dealing with grief fill in the blank becomes other people Because other people are uncomfortable. It's impeding on the normal cycle of their day Oh, you know, you're not totally normal and comfortable and this isn't something I'm a hundred percent used to So I'm a little bit uncomfortable Can you please go away and that's being said to people who have experienced significant loss the focus should not be on mild discomfort and Preferences when someone is trying to pick up the pieces of their life The biggest and most tangible thing that I mean when I say that is if there are people in your life Who are hurting or having a hard time or going through something big put your own discomfort aside only to a healthy extent Like don't let boundaries be crossed in your own life. That's not what I'm encouraging at all But if it's discomfort if it's something you are just uncomfortable with you're not used to you weren't sure of work on figuring it out Ask questions Don't ostracize someone or tell them what they should be or what they shouldn't be or anything like that because it's never helpful In my own experience in my own opinion I know people who have recently lost family members who have recently lost children and It tears my little heart out and it breaks my heart into smaller pieces Seeing the things that people say to them and how people interact with them if someone is having a hard time and crossing boundaries That's one thing if someone is having a hard time and is asking you to be there and maybe he's a little bit uncomfortable Maybe figure out a way to deal with your discomfort on the flip side of it If you are the person who is dealing with trauma or loss or mental illness or something large in your life And people are telling you who you should or shouldn't be or how you should or shouldn't respond Just for the purpose of making themselves more comfortable.  I'm going to say this asking that you guys take this in the context of the rest of what I've said It is okay to make people a little bit uncomfortable and ask that they meet you where you are And they're welcome to say yes or no But you do not have to be what other people want you to be If you are experiencing something and the people who are currently around you Just can't handle it and through conversation and dialogue that doesn't change. There are a lot of people in this world There are a lot of other people out there who can provide you the kind of support that you need Not everyone is suited to be there for you always unfortunately However, the cool thing is that we live in an incredible world with a lot of people and a lot more people care than we generally think do So if someone is uncomfortable with you and can't deal with that discomfort for whatever reason Know that there are absolutely other people out there. So to the person who wrote this comment I appreciate your feedback. Thank you for sharing your opinion I sincerely mean that however without being said it never has been and it never will be my job to make You more in comfort with how I am dealing with a significant situation in my own life It's okay if I'm uncomfortable being stared at or being in public and it's okay if I express that and it's okay If I go outside anyways and now on to the actually fun part where I read five of my most favorite comments from the last 24 hours Let me just say these are five out of oh so many This community is truly amazing And I feel like any future video that I make about a comment that I want to say something about that maybe isn't Like entirely positive I should probably balance it out with all the amazing comments that people say because I try to like type Respond to as many as I can but gosh darn it. You guys are so amazing Uh, I want to give you some shout outs on screen And if I could like post every single comment in this video that I loved I would but that video would be like 27 hours long So here we go. This is a bit of a longer comment, which I love so I won't read the whole thing on screen But she writes it's a big major life changing decision and like you I believe so many things This jeez referring to our own medical stuff here.

Greetings, friends. This is SurvivalDoc. Today we're going to look at my Mosin Nagant. This is a Chinese Model 53, the carbine version. Here it is on my gun rack showing between my M1 Grand on the bottom and my M1A on the top. As you can see, the carbine with the bayonet extended is about the same length as the M1 Grand with the 10-inch bayonet on it. The most of you are probably familiar with the longer version and I'll talk about that one in a minute. When you buy Mosin Nagant, this is what you want to check. You want to take a cartridge, insert it in the muzzle like this to see if it has been counterboard. Your rifle is worth more if it has not been counterboard. This one has not been counterboard. As you can see, there is about five-eighths of an inch space on the bullet before you reach the shell casing, right here about five-eighths inch. If it has been counterboard, what they do is they bore into the muzzle about an inch or so. It increases accuracy on an old rifle and this is what it will look like if it has not been counterboard. This is what my rifle looked like when I first bought it. The good thing about a Mosin Nagant is they are very inexpensive. You can get one for less than $150. So it is a good rifle for a decoy or throwaway rifle when they come and confiscate your gun if you want to have a decoy. It is a good functioning military rifle, bolt action rifle. Did some work on this obviously. If you want to see what I did to the stock, look at my video on restoring my M1 Grand. I used the same procedure for restoring this stock that I did on my M1 Grand. So I am not going to go into details here. Cosmoline, you keep my rifle clean. Cosmoline is a pain in the rear but it is necessary. It does protect the metal. This rifle was made in 1955 and it would be a rust bucket right now if it had not been stored in Cosmoline. But you do have to remove the Cosmoline of course. A lot of videos on YouTube showing how to remove Cosmoline but that is how you end up with a nice clean metal with little rust. I used a simple green to remove Cosmoline. It was pretty nasty with this gun so I actually used mineral spirits which worked a little bit better than simple green and then I finished it up with simple green. Now getting Cosmoline out of the stock is another matter. It is even more difficult than getting it out of the metal. You see YouTube videos of people putting it in the sun like I did here. It takes days in the hot summer sun to do this. You can also use a heat lamp to do this but you just let the rifle sweat it out. Just put it in the hot sun all day long. Just let it sweat out and every now and then you wipe it off. But this doesn't get enough of the Cosmoline out for me so I used a procedure using boiling water that I show on my M1 Grand video. So if you want to see how I removed the Cosmoline from this stock I wrapped it in rags and poured boiling water on it and then used simple green on it. And that repeatedly to just get the Cosmoline out of the stock. Turned out very nicely of course. This rifle is older than I am and it has some character. I like the looks of it. It looks like a tree bark camo but it is really smooth. If you would hand this rifle to a blind man he would fill it and think it was almost a new rifle because it actually feels real smooth, satin, finished. I am not going to go into detail about disassembling most of the gump because there are many many many videos on YouTube showing how to disassemble it. But one thing I will show that I did not see another video on that is how to remove the retainers for the barrel bands. These two holes right here you use a 1.16 inch punch.  You want to take these out. They are easy to take out but you want to take them out because you want to clean these up real good they will be a mess underneath them. And also when you clean and when you sand your stock you want these out of there. With the bolt I will say just a little bit about the bolt because I see a lot of YouTube videos of people disassembling and assembling a bolt. You want one of these gauges here and you want to make sure that you check the protrusion of your firing pin. Your firing pin should touch the metal on the first notch it should touch it. But it should not touch the second notch this one right here. There should be a little bit of space there and if there isn't the firing pin could actually push the primer all the way into the cartridge and you could have gases escaping which could be a dangerous situation. Touch here it should touch this one and it should not touch this one. Now when you see people on YouTube taking this thing apart you see them pressing the firing pin onto a hard surface that is not necessary I don't recommend it. This little device right here or the fourth notch on your gauge that I just showed you can be used to unscrew the firing pin.  But the way that you disassemble the firing pin you don't have to press the firing pin into a board. What you do is you just take this device right here and you unscrew the firing pin and you put it back together the same way.  This is the wrong way this is the right way. This little nubbin right there has to fit into that notch like that right there.  And any most in the gun owner certainly should have one of these these are the original Chinese cartridge holders which each one holds three speed loaders each speed loader holds five cartridges so this little device here holds thirty. Now when you get one of these make sure you treat the leather with the leather conditioner. Here is the speed loader this is how you load the five cartridges in your speed loader.  This is a clip some of you do not understand the difference between a clip and a magazine this is a magazine this is a clip magazine clip. A lot of you will call the magazine a clip and there is a difference it's a real neat rifle I've shot it it is a lot of fun to shoot. This is Survival Doc reminding you be prepared or be prepared to be pleased.

Alright, ready? Let's do it. Welcome to Off Topic Tuesday Episode 6.  The 30th. January 30th. Yes, it is. Yes. So, January is almost over already. January 30th, 2018. So, yeah. Anything we say is based around that date because we like to be, it's news as in new things. So, if you're watching this, awesome. Maybe it's the future because future me might watch it. You never know. I don't know. Yeah, I know what I was discussing back then. I mean, this is saved for posterity now. I mean, thousands of years from now, people will be looking at this and going, wow, those guys really had their finger on the pulse. We had their fingers on the pulse of the internet. So, let's just get started because finger on the pulse plays into fitness tracking app Strava, gives away location of US secret army bases. Excellent segue. Excellent segue. And this is fantastic and frightening all at the same time. Yes. Sensitive information about the location, staffing and military bases, and spy outposts around the world have been revealed by fitness tracking app companies. The details were released by Strava and data visualization app that shows all the activity tracked by users of its app, which allows people to record, exercise, and share it with others. This does not secure your wrist from time and time. No, Josh, no. We are not a Strava security wrist. You would see, you'd be like, wow, he has gone from the couch to the refrigerator 17 times in the last hour. Yeah. So, the reality is, I'm aware that I could use a more exercise. I don't know if I'm ready to have any AI system telling me this. Well, now is a perfect excuse to be like, no, I can't. It's a security risk. It's a total security risk. So, let me jump to the global heat map. And this is pretty cool because this allows you to see visually places people were running and using the Strava app and doing exercise. And it has some real world security problems. Does anyone run by our office? That's what I'm actually doing. Oh, yeah. There we go. Like on the surface, it is a very cool app.  But as we'll talk about, there's some problems. No one runs around our building. Really? What should be our building? I think I'm on the right road. There's no streets on there. Any labels? Hold on. Get labels. I'm on the wrong street. Oh, yeah.  A little too far south. Let's find out. There we are. There we go. Here's us. All right. There's our building. Does anyone run around? No, God. It's certainly not us. Nope. Nope. Nope. Nope. Nope. Some people do walk. So this is our building. Yeah. I'm dancing around with a mouse here. And yes, there's some trail that's going to home. Yeah. They cut it. Well, they're actually cutting through, and I do this when I ride my bike. I come up this way when I ride my bike to work and cut through the parking lot. Oh, sure. That's probably an easy sidewalk. The sidewalk's really bad here. Yeah. So I cut through the parking lot. So that's all this is. Yep. No security. No, not that we need to be secure, but no security problems here. Yeah. Yeah. Definitely. It's an interesting concept, though. And this is always why it's the things you didn't think about. And it's funny. I read it this run into a discussion about a lot of security problems created by people where they just do things, not thinking about it, that could possibly be secure. This is actually a really common problem of security, that it's so constant. And I'm going to say Jason Street, look up some of his talks he's done. He's a physical security hacker, and he talks about all the things that he finds, because like, cool, you have the best firewalls, antivirus, UTMs, almost all the threats are like, look, post-it note. Yeah. And with passwords on it. Yeah. And just really obvious things that people do that make things insecure, including when you're going to put a secret base, and then we're going to give all the guys cell phones, tracking, Facebook, God knows they've posted enough stuff on there. Those have been incidents I have friends in military. And this is like a known issue. They have rules about this. And they're not always followed. No. So these military personnel are using these fitness tracking app and basically mapping out the entire thing. The entire bases where they're at. So like bases that are not even like they're blacked out or just not shown like on Google Earth and things like that. Ladies heat maps over when you know exactly where everything's at. Yes. This reminds me though, speaking, because sometimes the government does it to themselves. They were removing after 9-11 it was like removing things from maps. They were like, oh no, let's remove the locations of power plants and critical infrastructure from plants. Then this is the best part. All you had to do was get the new updated maps that the FAA made for the no fly zones to know where everything was. Right. They just like, well, just delete them as if they'll not exist anymore in the map and then the FAA is like, oh, we'll make new no fly zones and tell you why you can't fly over this place in this place because it's critical infrastructure. So yeah, sometimes the government does it to themselves. Right hand me left handed. You played yourself. Know what you're doing. Not going to happen. Well, in other news, we've talked about net neutrality and this is a problem. So VA law markers introduced a Netflix tax bill to the General Assembly and they call it the Netflix tax. The concept is they want to add taxes to streaming services, which would probably negatively affect Netflix, Hulu and probably even YouTube and all those.  So if you're in the US, there's already taxes on it. Maybe it's different elsewhere, but inside the US, I have a big of my bill. It goes to taxes to pay for internet provisioning. They want to add some VA law makers a extra tax on top of that because it's a streaming service. Obviously, you know where this is going. The cable TV companies are going, but people under 30 don't watch it because it sucks. It's terrible. It's terrible. I cut the cord in 2011 because I realized it was just horrible programming.  They just find something to keep 24 hours of programming going and everyone turns, and it's not really that good. And we're seeing this unfortunately with some of the streaming services too, but there's just so much bad content, bad programming versus you get great things. Like, you know what we're not on? Cable. Right. But you can get us here on YouTube. You don't want to pay a tax for that. You're already taxed. And I don't get this.  If they think this is going to win over the crowds, this is only going to make them hated more because if there's something people under 30 are, it's generally jaded about the current state of something. Absolutely. I read that too. I was like, wow. And I don't blame them. I'm 42 and jaded. Yeah. Well, I mean, and I think you add a tax like this. Really, it's just going to further entrench those on, you know, people who have cut the cord. Because honestly, like, I'm not going to like it, but like, I know what you're doing and I'm not going to go back to cable. Yes. And I've, you know, I've even seen some people, some of the younger crowd, you know, I don't have, TV was always the cool thing we said. And this is, now it's, I don't even have a Facebook. Some of them are really disconnected. That's all they do is they get their content from the, and it's, I always look at it YouTube or, because you go there looking for a thing or looking for us, but it's a more purposed watch. So you're like, I don't just turn it on and let it go. People who binge and stream certain things. Oh yeah. But I go there for a purpose. Like I'm looking for this movie to watch or this show to watch. And then it's more purpose versus, I don't know, it's just on in the background on these mindless commercials that repeat on, you know, these regular schedule. I don't know.  Looks like it's going to get shot down. Yeah. Well, and it's just in the state of Virginia. So, but it's, And if it does pass in Virginia, register your account not a state. Well, the problem is if it passes in Virginia, like what door does that open? Yeah. That's why I'm sure it will be shot down and let's hope so because I do not want that can of worms opened up. Now, this is this is the discussion we're going to go into here. So face to face real time face capture and reenactment of RGB videos. Now this is an interesting software that was open. This is not actually news. This, but it leads up to news. We'll get there. We'll get there. And I say this is news. You have haven't seen this, but it's pretty amazing. And there's a video and we're going to link to all this here. And it's a really wild to see that you can take one person and map their face onto another person and control what they look like and what they say. And this really this is, you know, a year ago. Well, this is I'm sorry. This is two years ago. That's 2016. Yeah. And so over two years, this technology has gotten dramatically better. It brings into a lot of legal questions of what are we going to have to do to make sure video is good? Video is admissible in court as evidence. And even on the more basic functions, we've seen the face swap apps with Snapchat and things like that. So we have this access some of these technologies with our phones and it's become really easy to use. But obviously begs the question of what's real. I mean Photoshop really is a game changer and people, you know, is looking for the artifacts and things like that to make sure that a photo isn't photoshopped. And we just made the assumption it's just too tricky with video. But Snapchat, my kids can swap faces with me. Right. And, you know, this technology keeps better and better. And then we come to this guy. Oh, yes. And this video is great. It's from, it's a clip from Superman and they put Nicholas Cage's face. I don't remember the actor or the girl who played this. Yeah. Boy, that looks like Nicholas Cage on Netflix. Yeah. It's unnerving. It's unnerving. Like how good that is. And what all AI tools as we learned last week, they all end up making fake porn. Of course. We're back to this topic again, but I can't help it. The AI system and this is a big story. So AI tools will make it easy to create fake porn just about anybody. And it's because of a redditor that it's called, his name is Deepfakes. And it's basically, he did some coding and it has an entire subreddit. And it's completely not safe for work. Don't open it.  So you cast them in a new role. Sure. Yeah. Officially. And the AI system that automatically maps the face onto the other person. I mean, and now here's the question. Is this illegal? And there's not, this is where, do you have to take a step back and go what laws are being broken? Because some of celebrities want them taken down, but they're also like, well, it's not really you. It's a depiction of you. Does this fall under fair use? And it's only a depiction of their face. But it is their likeness. It is their likeness.  Right. So I think there's probably a case there. And I want to be on the journey. Because I want to see the evidence. Yeah. This is such a weird problem to have. And this is where technology just, it's accelerating really fast. So we have to figure out what to do.  But it does raise a lot of interesting things of when you can just swap someone's face around. You're like, well, how does that work? It's going to, yeah, it's going to raise questions of like, what is admissible? And a non-porn use. What if, and we see, I mean, they did an amazing job in Star Wars. We had Carrie Fisher in Star Wars, even though she wasn't in Star Wars. Right. Well, actors never die. Well, we go, man, we just really like that person. Right. We're going to buy the rights to their face after death. How does that work? Does the family get the proceeds? Oh, gosh. Do we buy the rights to someone? And we just say, we just map them on everyone now. But I think part of what the actors do that becomes really tricky is the delivery. Because some actors have such a presence. Yeah. And that makes a big difference. So it's not just their face and likeness, but. But there are also people that can do incredible impressions of people, too. Not only that. We go a step further. If you haven't seen this, Adobe has their new software that will do that. Once it has enough work samples, you can just type in and it will re-speak all the sentences in that person's voice. So if you combine that and all these, this guy is not doing that part. He's only doing the face part. What if, though, we took, and obviously with any actor, you just summarize all their movies, take all their lines, feed it into Adobe. I can't remember the name of a program that Adobe makes. They demoed it. I don't know if it's for full release yet or not. But then you can have people saying in their voice and it's being... Once you started down this path. Yeah. It's only going to get better. Or worse, depending on your point of view. Yeah. When you... Oh, wow. So I'm not going to go there, but you could have an entire virtual actor. So you've made the entire likeness. What's that movie with Joaquin Phoenix? He falls in love with the... Her. Her. You don't have real life of this. So that could be... Well, I mean, that's an issue that people have talked about with movies already is like, we're at a point now where do we necessarily need live action actors? I mean, we... There comes a point where this gets... Yeah. Can you just create a person? Can you replace us with that? Can you replace Tom and Marb with this? We don't... We don't want to go there. Well, you can replace Tom and Marb, but there are certainly people you can replace. Anyone with the effort into replacing us? Well, that's just it. Well, I mean, this guy is putting celebrity faces on porn. So... Yeah. So I guess anything is possible. Do us a favor, though. If you are into using this type of software, don't put our faces on porn. Nobody wants that. I don't think anyone's going to waste the CPU cycles. No, gosh. Don't bother. But if you do, send us a link because we watch it. Oh, absolutely. We watch ourselves. Yeah. Give me abs if you're going to do it. Make it healthier, us. Because we're probably not using this Trava app. That is because it's a security risk. Because it's a security risk. Tell us. And we are all about security here. All right. We'll be back next week with hopefully a non... It's not that we wanted... Don't make that promise. Don't make the topic to be not safe for work. But it just keeps happening because people keep using AI for things. Well, it's... Was it Rule 39? Or was it? Rule 34. Rule 34, yeah. Yeah. This is... It's how it works out. It's true. All right. Thanks for watching Off Topic Tuesday. We'll get back to work now. Maybe. Maybe. See ya. Bye.


Hi, I am Dr. Sachit Abraham, consultant dermatologist at Manipal Hospital in Bangalore. There are different treatments for acne. One is, like I said before, acne is caused by a bacteria. It's called propionibacterium. So there is an antibiotic called tetracycline which kills the bacteria that produces acne. So once you give the antibiotic, things get better. There are certain, if it is like severe grade 4 acne, like nodular acne, there are much more stronger medicines like isotretinoid, which has to be taken under the prescription of your dermatologist. So, and then there are peels, chemical peels to cure scars, microdermabrasion, dermarola. These are all different treatments, but one has to go under the care of a dermatologist. Now and then, acne comes till at 25 plus or minus 2-3 years. And when acne stops coming, a person needs to have nice smooth skin, flawless skin. That is the idea of treating acne. So acne has to be treated as a man required till a certain age.


There doesn't need to be any kind of special, you know, evaluation magic related to TAH, but that really the concepts of good program evaluation carry over regardless of what kind of project you're working with. The sort of basic tenets for effective program evaluation are, first is to base the evaluation actually in the goals of the project, okay?  Did you and are you actually doing the things that you set out to do within your goals? Those are the, or that is sort of the basic question and questions that you try to answer. And in fact, actually when we start off on a project like this, we frame this as evaluation questions that tie back to the goals. The next piece is to make sure that the data that you collect in fact actually flows from those evaluation questions. So if you say that, you know, the goal of your project is to ensure that teachers develop a greater understanding of the roles of freedom, liberty, and democracy as enduring concepts in American history, okay? Well, we're going to want to actually find out if in fact teachers can do those things. The fact of the matter is though, is that a lot of times people in their evaluations don't follow that basic rule of evaluate what it is that you're supposed to do. So I think the role of the evaluator, whether it's, you know, whoever's doing your evaluation for you, is to be able to pull the project's focus back to the goals. We don't necessarily want to know that people just think that, you know, such and such presenter was the greatest presenter since, you know, Abraham Lincoln. If that doesn't really have anything to do with what it is that the actual outcomes of the project are tied back to. So, you know, it's our task to sort of pull that along and guide that along. And I think sometimes it's easier to do from the outside to say that a professional development project is going to be evaluated based on student gains or gains in student content skills. You know, there's not a direct correlation there. And to attempt to prove a direct correlation I think inspires an awful lot of gymnastics and magical thinking and all sorts of things, which aren't terribly helpful to projects getting done what they need to get done. I think that it looks like the new indicators are about teacher content knowledge, which at least that makes sense to test, okay? And then issues related to the, you know, the degree of participation or the depth of participation on the part of participants in the professional development that's being offered, that makes sense as well. It stands to reason to say that if people are going to get something out of a project they have to participate in at least 75% of the work of the project.


Hi everyone, Joe for JazmiceCaseBreaks.com with a capstone pack and giving away four Ken Griffith Jr. mixer spots as well, but let's do the break itself first. Big thanks to this group for getting in on it, thanks for making it happen. All 30 baseball teams are in, let's roll it, randomize it, two into six, eight times for names and teams, two, three, four, five, six, seven, and eighth and final time. And then two and six, eight times for the teams, two, three, four, five, six, seven, and eighth and final time. Philly's down to Metz. All right, there's the first half of the list right there. No trades and second half right over here. Good luck. All right, here's the final printout, hot off the presses. Same as what you saw on the previous screen, we'll whip right through it. Got to do one more of these packs, sell out some full spots, and then we're in breaks, old boys and girls, let's do it, we can get that in tonight, but get it in before we run out of time because we are in the fourth quarter of the show, our final two hours, so we really got to hustle now if we want to get it done tonight. All right, so nothing too crazy there in terms of hits, but we do have four hits in here, it's those mixer spots. So let's get everybody's names one through 30, clean list, new dice, four into two, six times, top four after six, good luck. One, two, three, four, five, and sixth and final time. Top four from five though, Donnie, sorry man, five through 30, just not quite. But we do have to do one more of these, so if you want to try again, give it a go, jasmyscasebrakes.com. Top four, you're happy because you're in the mixer, Josh is happy. So it's Tristan, Josh again, and Scott Goodman. That's to the top four, we'll see you in that break. Maybe later tonight at jasmyscasebrakes.com.


Dear students, we see that in any contemporary society, corporate form of organizations are getting bigger day by day. They are so bigger that over the period of time, these carpeitians have transformed themselves from a smaller multinational company into a larger transnational corporation. A corporate form of business organization is effective and efficient means to get capital, to obtain the required resources and to produce goods and services for the final market. In many countries of the world, these carpeitians are much dominant in their area of businesses. An important feature of these carpeitians is that the ownership structure is diffused. This means that in a corporate form of organization, the ownership of the business is shared by larger number of shareholders. These individual shareholders proportionally hold a smaller stake relevant to the total capital. Another important feature of these organizations is that the individual shareholders are located at a distant place from each other. And due to this distant location, these shareholders cannot play their role in controlling the affairs of the firm. As a result, these shareholders appoint professional managers. Those managers are given the authority to deploy the business assets and to conduct business for the interests of the shareholders. Now we see that in a corporate form of an organization, the ownership is separated from the management of the firm. This separation of ownership from control of the firm creates an agency relationship between the shareholder and the managers. The managers are generally known as agents in this relationship and shareholders are known as the principal of these agents. Now sometimes this agency relationship may not work well for the organization and it does not affect only the shareholders, but it also affects the other stakeholders like creditors, like general public, like investors, like government regulatory authorities, customers or many others. Now this creates a conflict of interest among all these stakeholders and now the question arises how to control this conflict of interest. There is one solution with the help of which this conflict of interest can be controlled and that solution is the development, implementation and establishment of a strong corporate governance structure in the modern organization. Now what's corporate governance is? Corporate governance is composed of principles, procedures, policies and clearly defined authorities, responsibilities and accountabilities, all these used by the shareholders and other stock stakeholders to overcome the conflict of interest in the firm. This corporate governance mechanism is used in such a way that it ensures the minimization of conflict of interest. But what happens if a company fails to structure its corporate governance system effectively? A loss may be due to the operational risk to the company, company may not be able to perform as per the set procedures, rules and regulations in the company. Due to this there the investor may lose trust in the company's operations and its policies. There may be a risk of to the company's existence due to continuous failure. The existence of the company may come to an end. Now how much riskiness is the investment in a particular company? Is subject to the quality of the corporate governance system prevailed in that company? It is very much important to monitor continuously the corporate governance practices in any company because we see that a change in management, change in board of directors may change the competitiveness and market conditions for the company. So in order to ensure the effective governance, the continuous governance mechanism is much more important. Now how much effective and efficient functioning of a company can be? It depends that how much strong corporate governance structure is in the company. Inefficient corporate governance system in any company may lead to the corporate failure. And in the failed organizations there is a loss of investor's money. Again, there is a trust loss on inefficient functioning of global and local financial systems. In order to avoid these losses, it is needed that continuous monitoring of the company's practices in terms of its corporate governance and how much it is effective to sustain the corporate governance system. It is required. What is the role of regulators in implementing and ensuring consistent corporate governance system? Introduction of new regulatory frameworks to restore the faith of the investors in any companies and financial markets is much desirable. It prevents future corporate collapses. It ensures and strengthens the corporate governance culture in any organization. And corporate governance regulation requires to be updated regularly. It requires to address all the corporate governance problems. It requires to be uniform for all set of organizations in a particular industry, in a particular culture, but uniform as a whole for the company's corporate sector.


My name is Jimmy, his name is Jake, and this is the Weekly Dumb! Happy late Easter to you! Also to you, happy Easter! God didn't like that. Everyone, no, I've been sick for five days and five of my busiest days of the years, but I'm feeling years or years. How are you, Jim? Good, I'm like healthy. I've been sick for, I don't know, the winter. Swapped it. Yeah. You spit in my mouth. Maybe that's what it was. Spit in my mouth. Let's go, yanks. Have that be a goldfish swimming? Sorry. What's going on in the world of the sports? James, big sports weekend, sneaky. Baseball, collisions at home plate, Jim. You're favorite. I'll always walk into the office and you're just watching replays of collisions at home plate and you're like, yes, more and more. This weekend we had two injuries as well. I will say there's going to be people that watch this that are just like, oh man, not like contact. Plays at the plate are very cool when they're like finesse slides or bang bang. One, I think is completely clean. The O'Neill Cruz, who we did get injured versus Savallo. Like kind of awkward O'Neill Cruz kind of went into a slide late and he's just got so much body that he like twisted his knee. The high throw so the catcher had to jump. Yeah, I don't because the catcher gets once they get the ball, they get the terrain. But is that while they're in the air, once they have the ball in their glove, they can block the whole plate. They just have to give a lane before the ball in the glove, which is what happened on this second one. Darno is giving the full lane before he catches the ball. Rugnet Odore sees that and says. Rugnet Odore, three, two, one, zero. Yeah, bad. He sees the lane, you can see him kind of go down the slide. And then he's like, oh, wait, I think I run past this and it's faster because I have a lane, but he doesn't realize that the way it works is as soon as the catcher catches the ball, he's going to turn. Right. So he just goes and runs right through Darno, never touches home. And that I am think Odore's in the wrong there. Like it's just kind of careless. But here's here's an old baseball collision. Just a reminder what that looks like. That's a great glitch. Cricket 22, I'll find my glitch on that 22. 22 crickets, APC. Jim, this almost a breakdown. It's not cricket. It's rugby on the pitch. Not rugby. It's seven million football league. What's that? This is funny, though. I love a good premature celebration. Motivation, education. They think the ball goes in. They don't have the best vantage point of it. If it goes past the line, they score and they win the game. If it doesn't, they lose the game and the player in black bats it down. Great save by him. He doesn't see that he doesn't have the best vision. So he's not only celebrating like, yeah, does the soccer thing where you slide to the ground and you say, come and come and get me. I'm the best pile. Lay on top of me. Let's make out and celebrate. The guy comes. They start kissing and then they realize, oh, yeah, we didn't win. This is awkward. So the guy who got called to the ground is like, yeah, you just made the fool out of me. And I love it. A special shout out to Zach, because he's actually the one that found this because it was on his homepage. It's red. It's our watch people die inside. Yeah, very popular. That's how it starts and finishes every day. It's a good one. It's like shooting fruit. Let's go to bed. It's like it's like nonstop shooting fruit. They're so sad. Oh, yeah, they're sad. Let's go back to the more sports shake. This is a fun more sports. Jim, the more sports Israel Adesanya. Three, two, one, seven and a half point one. Yeah, Adesanya. This is a big one. Him and Pereira and a great UFC slay. Again, they do it. It's always weird for me. A lot of different emotions. We're fighting and it's oh, but it also taps into someone. It's like and great knockout. Great celebration. And great post game, Jim.  I'm not going to just dabble into any old set. You need evidence that it's good. But if like the rest of the world is like, this is a good one. Right. Let me check it out. And this was a good one. The dude Pereira comes out for people I don't know with a big bow and arrow celebration as his walk out. So after he gets knocked out Adesanya. I say all these names like I'm Australian now. Right. He does three, shoot some dead, then looks at his son and goes, Daddy, sleep in. Yeah. His son had mocked him, I think six years ago. Yeah. You want to be a fighter? Hit the post games. Great.  I'll send you the clip, Zach. What's our question? Oh, wow.  Quick editing. I missed it. Hmm. Slow brain. Before we go to the not sports. Why don't you go to DraftKings? We've been going to DraftKings a lot recently. I see bats. Green screen. This is a draft Kings. Zach said no.  Oh, this is a sad tale, man. Say you're the coolest duck in school. You have something that makes you scary. Right.   No one liked you.  And everyone thinks this duck's badass. He is a knife attack survivor. It's your identity. It's what makes you cool when you show up to parties. It's what makes people talk about you when you leave the parties.  So this is where humans get it wrong over and over again. Let this duck live with a knife in its neck. Here's where I'm a little confused. Isn't rule number one, if like a knife is in you, don't pull it out? Oh, I think surgeons can pull it out, which is what happened here. They like did duck surgery on this wild duck. They named it Donald, which is so soft. This whole story, yeah, it happened in France. They named him Donald? Is she employee after week? It's the employee that never shriezes. It's the employee of the week. Oh, it's the employee of the week. Our one French employee. Yes. Nothin' filet. Oh, I'd say it again. Nothin' filet. The AFL team from almost a breakdown, that was like his team. Like, so he got heartbroken. He was like on the ground making out with those dudes and then he got his heart broke as well. But Dolan's been killing it for talking baseball. He's the head researcher. Cheat guy. And he also umped a game in the warehouse and did really well. He did one of those, it was good. So good job. Defeels. Defeels. Nopty. That was a weekly dump.

And then he gets in fights. Yes. Okay. You've never been a fighter, I guess. You always punch yourself a little. I was in a couple fights. Threw a guy out the window once after I got beat up.


Good morning everyone today is Monday, June 1st at 8 a.m. Gonna do a video watch this day So for those that don't know I do a free video watch list every Monday on YouTube and then every day or every other day I do a video watch list for the members in MIC. So today is Monday Watchlist plus I'm gonna do a recap at 11 a.m. Today on YouTube. So let's get started Before I start again, I want to mention that the jumpstart accelerator is finally out for release This is a seven-hour course that will take you from not knowing anything about trading to placing your first trade in seven hours We have two things that are available. You could either buy the course for itself Or you could buy an annual membership and get the course for free. This promotion is only for one month. So That's it. Let me get started. So SNO a This is a low hanging fruit If you look at it, the reason why it's a low hanging fruit is because it tanked right gave back its move And today we're looking for a pop to short very early in the morning. We got up to 11 But shit, there was really no volume here to really attack it So, you know, what I see in the morning is I see kind of this 1020s level, right? Again, I'm just drawing my lines 1050 so looking to short a morning pop 10 1050 11. I don't really think I'm gonna chase weakness here Let me put the next one PHIO again another low hanging fruit look everyone was so excited to bye bye bye bye bye bye and then boom Smoked so what I'm looking for on something like this is I want to see a morning pop It's 324 but I kind of rounded it up to 330 345 I rounded it up to like 350 and 365 Again, I will not chase weakness on this because it's already tanked from six to three So just take chasing weakness. What's what are you gonna make 10 cents on it? It doesn't it doesn't make sense to chase weakness on this ADAP ADAP I'm watching if you notice this is kind of like a BIO right so Kind of like a BIO where it has first day move Tanked on day two and here we are so ADAP my plan is to scale this one Right. I want to scale 1050 1050 and 11 if it pushes through 1050 and just starts to slowly fade I will add to my winner as long as the stock is under VWAP CTX had a big move pre-market soon 7 a.m. Came around it dumped and still looks very very very heavy So I'm looking to short any pop I get on this right here. I see 290 You should maybe I'll settle for even better 190 ish right 190 see if we can get some around 225 So hopefully this pops in the morning. It looks kind of weak so far support is at 165 So it might just wash and tank all day. Hopefully not AYTU is a potential hot chick of the day Just kind of gonna wait and see what it does not really in love with it yet I think a PR just hit well before I did my watch list. So I'm gonna wait and DKNG draft Kings is a potential first red day setup. We have One two three four five six green days in a row looking to short it when it goes red For a quick nail and bail trade I think that's it everyone. I'm gonna keep it short and sweet so that everyone makes it to the end Again, if you have any questions about joining or questions about trading you text us at<PHONE_NUMBER> and at the end these videos I do a secret word to make sure that you guys watch to the end of it So today's secret word is gonna be post it So thanks everyone and I will see you in the room
